Chapter 75
Song You walked slowly, watching carefully.

I can feel that these goblins and ghosts have different feelings for him, the inexplicable intruder, some are unfamiliar, some are vigilant, some are curious, some are resistant, and some are even afraid.

So he doesn't speak, but sees the Lord first.

These goblins and ghosts use human copper coins, but they are not limited to dynasties, any dynasties are using them.

Never seen one in silver.

Commodity prices are very different from downhill towns.

Pots, pans, and all kinds of ironware are very expensive and sell well. The price of clothes and fabrics is obviously higher than that of the market town at the foot of the mountain, and the price of meat is slightly lower than that of the market town at the foot of the mountain. Some rare delicacies, which seem ordinary to them, are plentiful and cheap here.

There are also some things that are rarely seen outside, and the prices vary.

They even sell books.

In addition to celebrity works, Taoist scriptures and Buddhist books, there are also collections of strange novels written by people.

A thought rose in Song You's heart——

If a businessman comes here and sells them back and forth, he will definitely make a lot of money. I am afraid it will be a small Silk Road.

"..."

Song You smiled secretly and walked to the first booth.

This is a stall selling ham.

The whole piece of pig ham, after being sliced ​​open, has a very beautiful color itself, and when lit by candlelight, it is even more attractively red.Either the craftsmanship is excellent, or the meat quality is very good.

The stall owner was a tall man with a leopard head.

"The stall owner is polite."

Song You walked up to the stall, looked down, remained polite, and asked the stall owner, "How do you sell the ham? Do you also accept the money from Dayan Dynasty?"

"Do!"

The meat knife was inserted into the chopping board.

The stall owner's leopard head stared at Song You, his eyes were round and round, and there was only a small dot left in the pupil. He sniffed a few times, looked at him for a while, and then said:
"you are human?"

"Exactly."

"How did you get in?"

"Traveling in the lower reaches of the world, I passed by this mountain. Before I went to bed, I saw lights on this mountain, followed the lights and the path, and walked in."

"You should go out."

"I'm going to go out."

Song You smiled and bowed again: "It's just that you're here, so why not take a look and stroll around before you go."

"Come on!"

"I think the ham sold by the stall owner is top-grade. Tonight, I just picked mushrooms from the mountains to cook the soup. I was still thinking about it when I was drinking it. If an old hen or a few slices of high-quality ham were added..." Song You said He shook his head and smiled, "I happened to meet Zuzu, so there is a destiny."

"Not sold to people."

"Why?"

"This is not where people come."

"There are quite a few ghosts in the city below the mountain." Song You paused, "It's not a place where people come, so it's not easy to meet the stall owner here."

"Do you really want to buy it?"

"Ask."

"One hundred cents and one tael!"

"..."

Unknowingly, a circle of goblins and ghosts in the mountains surrounded them, staring at them and talking to them as if they were curious.

Song You only looked down carefully:
"Is this wild boar?"

"Where did you get so much wild pork for you to eat? Grandpa raised it himself." The stall owner stared at him coldly.

"It's also well-raised."

"How many taels do you want?"

"It's just that I'm a little puzzled..."

Song You shook his head, raised his head and looked at the stall owner with a leopard head: "Why do you sell it to others for a hundred cents a catty, and sell it to me for a hundred cents a tael?"

The stall owner stared at him, and even moved a little closer to him, but he didn't see the slightest fear on his face. As a result, he seemed to be at a loss, and then said:
"If you don't buy it, go elsewhere! The stalls set up by those dead ghosts may sell it to you!"

"Why? Just because I'm human?"

"So what?"

Song You was a little puzzled.

There are all kinds of ghosts and ghosts here, of all kinds, and there are many who were natural enemies before they became spirits. They can all live in harmony, so why do they exclude themselves?

"I never underestimated my step because I was a monster, why did my step despise me because I am a human?"

"You don't know? People are not welcome here."

"Why?"

"Why are there so many!?" The stall owner was a little annoyed, "Don't people also welcome demons and ghosts?"

"Do you look like I don't welcome demons?"

"..."

When he asked such a question, the stall owner was really taken aback.

Then he looked at the Taoist from top to bottom again, seeing that he was in the world of ghosts, not only calm and composed, but also very natural, without the slightest fear or disgust, then his eyes swept to the feet of the Taoist, and saw a The three-coloured cat stood up like a human being, clung to the Taoist's leg, raised its head high and looked at itself quietly, with one paw still pawing at the Taoist's trousers.

The stall owner thought for a while, then snorted coldly:
"People are treacherous, cunning, and ruthless. You see so many mountain monsters and ghosts behind you. They are naturally spirits. Except for a few wild ghosts, how many of them like people?"

"That's a bad word."

Song You disagreed with his statement: "According to the rumors among us, most of the goblins and ghosts are not good people, and they often hurt people and kill people. But most people are not equal to everyone. Those goblins who hurt people and kill people Ghosts do not represent all goblins and ghosts, just like when I came here, I never discriminated against my step because of this, why should my step discriminate against me because of this?"

"you……"

"Take a breath." Song You quickly comforted, "I've become a monster, so I need to be more patient, too irritable and irritable, it's not good for practice."

"Do you insist on buying my ham?"

"I don't have to, I just think it's good and I have the idea of ​​buying, so I came here to ask." Song You said kindly, "It doesn't matter whether you buy or not, but you treat me like this, but it makes me feel a little bit uncomfortable. I understand, so I can’t help saying a few more words with my step, if there is any offense, um, if there is any offense, you must be patient.”

"you want……"

Before the stall owner finished speaking, the crowd of onlookers suddenly stepped aside, and two figures squeezed over.

Song You and the stall owner both looked over.

Both figures are humanoid.One is completely humanoid, but has big arms and round waists. Poor clothes, I'm afraid I'd be relieved to be able to fit him in.One was equally strong, but taller, with a buffalo's head on its neck, and its horns curved.

It is worth mentioning that these two are wearing the same clothes, which look like official uniforms, but the color system is slightly different from Dayan's official uniform.

Maybe it was the official uniform of a certain dynasty in the past.

There are still "official messengers" in this market town?
Song You was a little surprised.

Because most of the human market towns at the foot of the mountain have no official missions, and the common people gather spontaneously. Although the temple fair in the city is patrolled by officials, it is mainly because it is in the city.

But thinking that there are all goblins and ghosts here, with different types and special circumstances different from human beings, Song You also understood.

I saw these two walked out of the crowd in a few steps.

Naturally, a public man can't be submissive when doing business. When the two monsters came, they were aggressive. They just saw Song You wearing a Taoist robe, and then looked at the three-flowered cat next to him. After a moment of hesitation, he knew that the intruder was different from the usual ones, wasn't it? Ordinary people, their expressions are slightly restrained, but they are still very imposing.

"Where do you come from? Where are you going? Why are you here? Come quickly!"

"My surname is Song Mingyou. I am from a mountain in Lingquan County, Yizhou. I have traveled all over the world. When I passed this mountain, I came across a market in your place. I followed the lights behind the mountain and walked in. Please forgive me if I am rude."

"Are you a cultivator?"

"Yes."

"Which Taoism?"

"Yinyang Mountain, Fulong Temple."

"..."

As soon as these words came out, the onlookers didn't feel anything, and the "counselor" with the horns didn't feel anything, but the big and round man's expression froze.

Just listen to the Niujiao messenger asking: "What are you doing here making a fuss?"

"I didn't do it on purpose." Song Xunli said, "I just want to buy some ham. Maybe it's because you rarely see living people here, so you come to watch."

"So that's how it is." The Niujiao officer nodded, "This is a market town run by mountain goblins in my mountains. Once a season, it is not easy for humans to walk in safely. Since we broke in unintentionally, we usually don't hold you accountable. Since you are a cultivator, you should leave on your own."

"Since I came here, it is also because of destiny. I think this place is so strange, and I want to see more. I don't know if I can make it easier for me."

"Ok?"

The bull's head sent people to stare at it, which was as big as a bell.

But at this moment, he felt his colleague pat him on the shoulder, and then the colleague stepped forward alone. Although he was puzzled, he also shut his mouth.

"Since Master is a cultivator, he should know the truth that all kinds of people are different. This place is not a good place for human beings. Master, why not come with me, and I will take Master out."

"Why isn't it a good place?" Song You wondered, "I would like to hear more about it."

"Although this place is in the mortal world, it is a place where demons and ghosts gather. Apart from us, there are many fierce and young evil creatures wandering outside. It is difficult for mortals to find this place, and it is also difficult to come here. And it is easy to get lost if you stay here for a long time. Sensible, I can’t get out.” The bear-like messenger paused, “Of course, Master’s magic power is high, so we’re not afraid of these things, but we’re all vulgar and savage mountain goblins and ghosts, so why should Master be with us? this game?"

"What you said is wrong. They are all creatures in the world. What's the difference between humans and monsters?" Song You paused, "And from my point of view, everyone in this market is friendly to each other, and everyone buys and sells. Both of you are also pure and kind-hearted, convincing people with reasoning, how can you say it is vulgar and barbaric?"

"..."

The messenger was silent for a moment, but he stopped trying to persuade him, and only bowed his hands to Song You: "Then please do what you want, Master. It's just that the market here is only open at night, and Master has to leave before dawn, otherwise you may not be able to find him." On the way back, no matter how high the respect for the teacher is, there will be some trouble."

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked around again, thought for a while and said: "Meeting is rare. Immortal masters have never lost their etiquette. Everyone should treat each other with courtesy. Don't be too vulgar."

"Thank you."

"Master, thank you... Hey! The big guys are gone! They are gone, what is it like to be stuck here, hurry up, hurry up, hurry up, it's almost time!"

As he talked, he roared, it was the roar of a bear.

The onlookers were all waved away by him.

Looking at that appearance, it is really no different from the official difference under the mountain.

Song You bowed his hands and saluted him, and also saluted the goblins and ghosts watching, then turned around and looked at the leopard stall owner:

"Can the stall owner sell it to me at this time?"

The stall owner narrowed his eyes slightly, and pulled out the knife from the stall with lightning speed.

"brush!"

A thin slice of ham, almost translucent, rested on the blade of the knife and handed it to Song You.

"Try it!"

"Thank you."

Song You twisted carefully.

The owner of the stall is very good at cutting, and the cut is so thin that it has a paper-like texture when picked up.

The best raw ham is also delicious. Song You didn't know the quality of this ham. He just felt that it was not too salty, fragrant but not greasy. Top grade, but after swallowing it, the scent surges back up, making it even more memorable.

Monsters actually have this skill?

"Eight coins and one tael, one hundred and twenty one catty, if you buy a whole piece, you can spare some money." The owner of the leopard stall saw that Song You liked it, and squinted his eyes, feeling a little proud.

"It was still a hundred coins a catty just now, why should I pay more?"

"The price was negotiated."

"Then please give me a hundred and one catties!"

"How much?"

"About two catties, sliced ​​into thin slices."

"Can!"

The knife in the stall owner's hand was extremely sharp and he was familiar with the technique. I saw him slashing across the ham with a knife. Every time the knife fell, a piece of paper-like ham was sliced ​​off and fell on the table. The slight hissing sound was like a technique. The same clean and tidy, it seems that it sounds like a kind of enjoyment.

Song You glanced at the table, it was not very clean.

Maybe they don't care about that.
