Chapter 48 The Contest of Deception

Chapter 48 The Contest of Deception

Lin Yi listened to the bursts of thunder in the sky, and joined the melon-eating crowd, watching in the direction of the thunderbolt.

The power of Tianpin's spell is really impressive, he just used one.

However, these ghosts' daoism is not high, and so many ghosts have only contributed to him for 20 years.

As for Ji Dong, he doesn't like to hold grudges very much, he only remembers grudges that cannot be resolved on the spot.

Thank you Lei, thank you Yu, who came just in time and helped him cover up some traces, otherwise, Ji Dong was somewhat worried that the organizer of the ghost city would make trouble for him.

Of course, the big deal is running away. When he decided to do it, he even thought about the escape route after being exposed.

The current situation is relatively optimistic. It seems that no one has noticed him, and everyone has gone to watch the fun.

"Oh my mother, it's so scary."

Not far away was a ghost trembling. What ghosts are most afraid of is thunder, not to mention that this thunderbolt killed so many ghosts at once, it was scary to look at.

"That's right, those ghosts are screaming so badly."

Lin Yi listened, and couldn't help complaining in his heart, is this a northern ghost floating to the south?

While he was eavesdropping, his eyeballs were flicking around.

Sure enough, not long after, a small group of ghosts floated over, asked the onlookers what happened just now, and left in a hurry.

Ji Dong follows the crowd, no different from the people who eat melons.

Walking into the arch of the ghost market, Ji Dong saw stalls one by one. The sudden thunderstorm didn't have much impact on the ghost market, and the rain was isolated by an invisible barrier.

Lin Yi looked at the booths one by one with great interest, expecting to see some strange things.

Along the way, there are those who sell charms, magical instruments, and materials, which are all normal.

Finally, Ji Dong stopped in front of a stall selling books. The stall owner was wearing a black robe and a bamboo hat, so he couldn't see his face or gender.

Ji Dong stretched out his hand, wanting to see what kind of books there were. Before he dropped it, a silver needle appeared in front of his finger. If Ji Dong moved again, his hand would be pricked.

Then came the hoarse voice of the stall owner: "Buy first, read later."

"If I don't take a look first, how will I know if it's right for me?"

Ji Dong felt that this person's business was outrageous. How could there be such a book seller?

The stall owner was still aloof, and said: "Pick any one, you won't lose money."

So confident?

Ji Dong suddenly changed his mind, this person looked a little weird, he couldn't be an expert, right?
"How did you sell this book?"

"Two thousand yuan a copy, ten copies will be sold."

cheap!
Ji Dong was a little hesitant at first, but the ten books were only two taels of gold, and judging from the action of the stall owner pulling out the needle just now, he was a master.

Thinking of this, Ji Dong simply paid the money, and picked out ten copies at random, because he couldn't see the cover, this feeling was like ten consecutive draws.

He quickly opened the first book, and the first page made him feel like he was struck by lightning.

It's a picture, it's a picture!

Ji Dong flipped through it quickly, and there would be a picture every few pages. He quickly opened other books, and the same was true.

The text descriptions other than the pictures are short stories.

Ji Dong was shocked on the spot.

"Is this what you said you won't lose?"

Fortunately, he inspected the goods on the spot, otherwise he would have no place to reason if this unscrupulous peddler ran away.

"Of course you are not at a loss. Books worth a thousand dollars in the study don't have such beautiful illustrations."

Lin Yi: "..."

You are so right, I am speechless.

"I don't need the little porn book, return it."

"You've already seen it, you can't return it."

Lin Yi: "..."

He understood, this wave is encountering profiteers.

It took four months' salary to buy ten pornographic books, who the hell could resist?

Ji Dong was so angry that he was dying, but he still began to reflect on himself. In the final analysis, it was because of his greed. The stall owner took advantage of his mentality. He used his power and mystery to confuse Ji Dong, making him feel that the books here What a great thing, the price is not too expensive.

In vain, he claimed to be a professional, but he was fooled by a classic.

Ji Dong silently alerted himself in his heart, probably because his cultivation base has improved recently, and he has become more and more drifting, which is not good.

He has suffered this loss, but he cannot admit this hatred.

Ji Dong silently picked up the rest of the books and flipped through them. Without exception, they were all pornographic books.

Obviously, this profiteer still has something. He tricked people, but the tricks were not serious enough to make people have to get angry and fight with him endlessly.

For those who hang out in the ghost market, this little money is nothing.

Ji Dong quickly came to the conclusion that this profiteer was very tricky and a habitual offender.

But no matter how smart a person is, as long as he becomes greedy, he is not far from being deceived.

Lin Yi looked at the books in front of the booth expressionlessly for a while. When he saw one of the books, he read at a slightly full speed, his eyes showed a hint of shock, and he quickly restrained himself, just holding on to the book. He used a little force in his hands, and briefly stretched out his spare hand to clamp the remaining unread books under his arm.

Seeing Ji Dong's reaction, the stall owner couldn't help being a little surprised.

how?Flipped over a superb painting?

"I want all the books you have left here."

"Ok?"

The stall owner was full of question marks. He wanted to return the goods just now, but now he wants them all?He became suspicious.

"Let's return more than 280 volumes. It was originally [-] volumes. You are the second guest."

The stall owner made a false report with a hoarse voice, but in fact there were only 240 copies.

She bet that Ji Dong would not be able to count the books.

Sure enough, Ji Dong said eagerly: "Counting you three hundred copies, here is 60 taels of gold, take it."

As he spoke, he threw out an ingot of gold, then hurriedly opened the cloud bag, put the books in it, and left in a hurry after finishing.

The stall owner was holding the gold ingot that was obviously heavier than 60 taels in his hand, watching Ji Dong's back disappearing quickly, he always felt uncomfortable.

This wave, I seem to have made a lot of money, why do I always feel like I’m losing money?

She couldn't help recalling Ji Dong's reaction in her mind, and couldn't help but gasp.

"Is there really anything there?"

There are more than 200 books here, of course she can't read all of them, maybe people really missed them.

Seeing Ji Dong leave in such a hurry, it seemed as if he was afraid that she would no longer sell books...

"No, I can't bear such a big loss!"

The stall owner quickly walked into the shadows, and a moment later, a pretty girl in purple came out from the shadows and walked towards the direction Ji Dong left before.

After the ghost market is opened, no one can leave until the end. This is also to prevent people who participate in the ghost market from inquiring about the information and turning around to report here, attracting officers and soldiers to siege.

Of course, this was a worry in the past, and now almost no one is afraid, but the tradition is still preserved.

It is based on this that she is extremely confident.

"You can't run away, no one who can take advantage of my Shang Chang'er has yet to be born!"

 ps: I went to Yueyang Tower today and came back late
