Lord of Puluo

In the thick fog, the two people walked quickly. ♙♜

Orion Sun Tiecheng walked very fast, covering more than seventy miles in half a day, but it was a bit far behind the speed of a third-level traveling cultivator.

Are you really a traveling cultivator? Li Banfeng walked a little impatiently.

Sun Tiecheng answered honestly: Master, we can't go too fast. If we go too fast, we won't find the old land.

What's the reason for this?

I can't explain why. I just know that I have to walk slower on this road to find the gate of the old land.

Is there still a gate in the old land?

Li Banfeng became more and more curious as he listened.

After walking for another half day, the thick fog gradually dissipated, and a city could be vaguely seen ahead.

Unlike Green Water City, this is not a city, but an ancient city with walls, battlements, and gates.

Sun Tiecheng said: Sir, this is Fisherman's City. Pass through Fisherman's City and go south until you reach Tieyang Mountain.

Fishermen's City? There are a lot of fishermen?

It's not that Yu, he's that Yu. I can't read and don't know what to say.

A city suddenly appeared in the boundless wilderness. Li Banfeng was a little worried. This city didn't feel very good to him. It seemed like danger was waiting for him.

Seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune is the foundation for a peaceful life.

Li Banfeng said to Sun Tiecheng: We are not going into the city, we will go around.

If you can't get around it, you'll get lost.

Li Banfeng looked at Sun Tiecheng in surprise: Have you been to Tieyang Mountain before?

Been there.

You are a traveling cultivator. You have traveled before, and you still get lost?

You can get lost. This city is so evil. You can only pass through the city, but you can't go around it.

Li Banfeng became more and more puzzled: If you walk close to the city wall, you can't get around it?

Sun Tiecheng had a look of confusion on his face: Sir, if you gave me money, I would definitely not dare to lie to you. There is really no way around this city. If you don't believe me, I will give you the money back.

That's not necessary, Li Banfeng waved his hand, Let's go into the city.

After entering the city gate, Li Banfeng looked around.

Needless to say, this city is quite large, with spacious streets, stone pavements, and rows of houses on both sides. It's just that it hasn't been taken care of for many years, so it looks a bit shabby.

Although the building is dilapidated, there are still a lot of people. There are people wandering on the street, stalls on the roadside, and shops of all sizes are open, with people coming in and out from time to time.

The old earth became the old earth because Zhengdi lost its popularity. According to the lady, there are not even a hundred people in a hundred miles of land.

But why are there so many people in this city?

Others wouldn't be able to understand it, but Li Banfeng didn't find it strange because these people were special and their faces glowed green.

To be precise, they are not humans, but ghosts.

The city is full of dead souls wandering around. Just like Ma Wu said, they regard themselves as human beings and have absolutely no caution and taboos that ghosts should have.

These dead souls are different from what Li Banfeng usually sees. The flesh and blood on their bodies are very real and complete, and they feel comparable to the flesh and blood of the Earth God.

Are they all earth gods?

This is impossible!

They don't have that power about them.

But where did this flesh and blood come from?

Could this be caused by living in the old land for many years?

The two of them walked not far on the street when they heard someone shouting from the roadside in front of them:

Pain is pain, injury is injury, blood is like the Yangtze River, a small pain will become a disease if it is cold, and a small injury will become a sore if the blood is hot!

What is this for?

When I walked in, I saw a man carrying a box and selling medicines to onlookers:

This is a secret recipe passed down from my ancestors, specially used to treat waist and leg pain.

There are twenty-one medicinal herbs in this patch of medicine. There is no pearl ginseng or bezoar dog treasure. They are all worthless herbs.

Home remedies can cure serious illnesses, and herbal medicines will make famous doctors angry. Our medicine is not expensive. It costs two yuan per patch. Two patches are enough for serious illnesses, and one patch is enough for mild illnesses.

Li Banfeng smiled: This person is quite interesting.

It's really interesting, selling plaster to ghosts.

Do ghosts need plaster? Will it work if I stick it on?

It might actually work for these ghosts with intact flesh and blood.

Sun Tiecheng smacked his lips and said: This gentleman, he is a picky, a gnawing man, he is a liar, there is nothing good to see.

Picking a skin, a slang term, refers to those who sell medicine in the arena.

Luqianhan is a plaster seller, because in the old days, before applying plaster, it had to be roasted over fire.

This kind of charlatan selling medicine can't be real, but I didn't expect that this man has become a ghost and uses this charlatan to deceive people.

However, the people buying medicine in this circle are also ghosts. Li Banfeng wanted to see what methods the ghosts used to deceive ghosts.

The man glanced at Sun Tiecheng, and then shouted: Someone just said that I was a liar. We are strangers. I don't know where you started talking about this.

I am an honest person. I honor my parents at home and make friends abroad. What matters most is my reputation. When I heard what you said, I felt aggrieved.

I want this face, I fight for this tone, today I risk my life to spread my name, I don’t get any money for this medicine, I give it away for free!

Free gift?

Li Banfeng pinched his chin and looked more and more fascinated.

How can I defraud you of money if I give it to you for free?

Sun Tiecheng advised from the side: This gentleman, don't look at it. He is trying to cling to others. This is a trick of the world.

Li Banfeng still refused to leave.

The man added: Although my medicinal materials are cheap, they come with a cost. I really can't afford to give them to everyone present.

I have ten tickets here. I throw them away and you pick them up. Whoever picks them up, I will give a medicine. There are people who can pick up the tickets, but there are no people who can't.

The man started throwing paper tickets out, and Li Banfeng actually received one.

Good luck!

I see how he still moves back.

The man added: Yesterday, someone gave me a patch of medicine. When he got home, he felt that it was no money and he didn't feel bad, so he threw it away.

A gentleman is easy to cure, but a villain is difficult to prevent. For those who take medicine, please give me a capital, just give me one yuan.

Li Banfeng shouted: Isn't it free? Why do you want money again?

The man said: This brother is right. We must keep our words. Spitting is a thorn. If I say I will give it, I must give it.

For one dollar, you give me a copy of the medicine, and I will give you another medicine. If it doesn't work, you can ask me to refund the money. If it works, you can spread my reputation for me.

Li Banfeng shook his head repeatedly. Who would believe that he was cheating money by this method?

…

Five minutes later, Li Banfeng took two plasters and followed Sun Tiecheng forward.

Sir, I told you this is a liar, why are you still fooled?

It's okay, it's not much more than a dollar, just for fun. My legs have been really hurting for the past two days.

Li Banfeng did have leg pain. The reason for the leg pain was not because of the injury, but because the level of home cultivator was higher than that of travel cultivator.

new

So what's the use of buying this plaster?

If you buy it, just buy it.

Not far away, I heard an old man shouting: There are not many people here today to talk about fortune, but there are many things to do. The good and bad luck are all written on the face.

The changes of yin and yang are infinitely wonderful, and the world is in the palm of my hand. I took a quick look and saw the clues.

Someone had a bad incident at home, someone had a quarrel behind his back, and someone went out to seek revenge, with bloody disaster on their face!

Li Banfeng stopped.

What does this person mean?

What about me?

Sun Tiecheng whispered from the side: This is a fortune teller and a liar. Don't be fooled by him.

Li Banfeng didn't stop and walked forward. After a short while, the old man followed him.

Young man, I don't want to do your business. I chased you half a street just to give you a warning.

Today you have committed a sinister crime, so let go of seeking revenge. Every injustice has its own owner, and every debt has its own owner. The cycle of heavenly laws has its destiny, so don’t be in a hurry!

Li Banfeng looked at the old man for a long time, took out a hundred Huan notes from his pocket and stuffed it into the old man's hand.

The old man sighed: Young man, I accepted the money. I can see from your face that you have a kind heart. I will teach you another trick.

You stay in the city for one night, and don't go out of the city. Wait until tomorrow and come back to see my face. Then I will teach you how to deal with it.

After saying that, the old man left.

Sun Tiecheng was so anxious that he stamped his feet: Master, why have you been fooled again?

Li Banfeng thought for a long time and said, What he said is indeed accurate.

Let's not waste time here. I'll take you to Tieyang Mountain as soon as possible.

Li Banfeng waved his hand and said, I won't go up the mountain tonight. I'll stay in the city for one night and we'll talk about it tomorrow.

Do you really believe what he said? I don't live here! Sun Tiecheng shook his head and said, Master, I have said it all. If you leave the city and go south tomorrow, you will see Tieyang Mountain.

Li Banfeng gave Sun Tiecheng another twenty oceans, fifty oceans before and after, as a reward.

Sun Tiecheng pursed his lips: Sir, you are a good person. If you insist on living in the city, I will take you to Youlai Inn. That inn is not a lie.

Li Banfeng followed Sun Tiecheng to the inn. The innkeeper had a green glow on his face. He was not from the earthly world, but the price was fair. There was a single room for eighty-one nights.

That night, Li Banfeng stayed at the inn.

Not long after Li Banfeng settled in, the shopkeeper looked at the waiter beside him and ordered: Go to the backyard, call the brothers, hurry up and start the banquet!

The waiter whispered: Let's start the banquet now? It's better to wait until he falls asleep.

The shopkeeper said angrily: Bah! You asked me to wait, and then you did it yourself and ate it while it was hot. Do you think I can't see your little thoughts?

Shopkeeper, what are you talking about? I'm thinking about you, wait until he falls asleep before doing anything, so that we can be safe.

Stop talking nonsense and call someone quickly!

The waiter went to the backyard with a reluctant look on his face and was about to call the handyman, long-term laborer, and cook.

Unexpectedly, these people had sharpened their knives and were ready to climb through the window.

The waiter said angrily: You guys are so arrogant. Without the boss's instructions, you just plan to steal the news. You don't follow any rules!

The cook covered the waiter's mouth: What are you yelling about? We are worried that the boy is cheating, so let the shopkeeper find the way first.

The waiter pushed the cook away, waved his hand and said, Follow me to the lobby. The shopkeeper is waiting, let's do it together.

When we went to the lobby, everyone looked around but didn't see the shopkeeper.

The busboy asked: Where is the shopkeeper?

The waiter shook his head and said, I don't know, he asked me to come.

The day laborer was so angry that he stamped his feet: This old guy, he sent you away to eat alone!

Everyone rushed directly to the second floor and arrived in front of Li Banfeng's door, only to find that the door was not open.

The shopkeeper didn't come?

The cook smiled and said, It's just the right time. Let's start first.

The day laborer kicked in the door and held the person down first.

The servant took the big quilt and covered the person again.

The waiter ordered: Chop!

The cook stepped forward and made a chop.

The shopkeeper cried out in pain: Why the hell are you chopping me up?

The handyman opened the quilt and found that it belonged to the shopkeeper.

The waiter looked surprised: Shopkeeper, why did you come up first? Didn't we agree that we should come up together?

The shopkeeper's face didn't change: I came up first to explore the way for you. Which bastard just chopped me up?

The day laborer pointed at the cook and said, It's her! The knife is still in her hand!

The cook argued: My knife can only chop living people, not yin people. Even if it chops yin people, it won't hurt.

It doesn't hurt? Are you lying? I'm not made of meat? The shopkeeper rubbed his back for a long time, I won't hurt you. I'll chop you up and try it!

The shopkeeper wanted to chop up the cook, but the waiter asked: Shopkeeper, where are the guests?

The shopkeeper held the knife and thought for a long time.

No one has been seen since he entered the door. Where has this person gone?

…

Li Banfeng didn't go anywhere. He put the key on the beam and stayed in his home.

He held two plasters in his hand and sat in front of the record player in a daze.

Hey, sir, what are you holding in your hand? It's slimy and disgusting.

Li Banfeng said: I bought it on the street to treat leg pain.

Ms. sir, does your leg hurt?

A little bit.

Use this thing to cure? The record player couldn't believe it. Mr., you are a little crazy sometimes, but you are a smart person after all. How could you fall into the trap of picking someone's skin?

Not only did I fall for skin picking, but I also fell for Kinmen picking. It didn't cost much, and I'm not short of money. Li Banfeng threw the plaster aside.

He is indeed not short of money, but now he is short of IQ.

Li Banfeng looked at the record player and said slowly: Madam, I don't know what's wrong with me. Ever since I entered the city, my brain has been hard to use. I believe whatever others say.

What city did you enter?

Fisherman's City.

From the old soil?

Li Banfeng nodded and said: They are from the old land. I thought there were many fishermen here, but who knew there were many liars.

Hey sir, this is not a fisherman's fish, this is a fool's fool. You entered the City of Fools and met a fool!

Foolish cultivator? And this Taoist sect? Is this Taoist sect so powerful?

My lord, Yuxiu was once the number one sect in the world. No one at the same level can rival them.

PS: Is the number one sect in the world a foolish cultivator?

Any other Taoist service?
