Chapter 231 Ghost City Taboo
After finally stabilizing Jiang Chao's mood, I asked him to go back to the room to rest for a while.
I was sitting alone in the store, and more and more pedestrians on the street fell into deep thought.
Why did the Miao witch master target Jiang Chao and me? Is it because we ruined his good things? If that were the case, I think there was no need for the witch master to fight us. This matter is probably not as simple as seen on the surface...
Moreover, Jiang Chao and I are now infected with malnutrition and gangster insects. If we cannot find the gu magician's gust in a week, our lives will be lost.
So throughout the morning, I stayed at the coffin shop and searched online for relevant records about the witchcraft stool. But what disappointed me was that there were no records about the witchcraft on the Internet, and even the witchcraft stool was very few.
As noon approached, I ordered a takeaway and woke up Jiang Chao, who was already asleep, to get up for lunch.
After lunch, Jiang Chao's master, Lao Tou, came to the store and said that he had received work this afternoon, so he called Jiang Chao back.
After Jiang Chao left, I continued to stay in the store until night fell and no customer came to my door all day.
Mr. Qin once told me that if there is no customer coming to our Qinji Coffin Store all day, then this day is a good day, and he will drink some wine to celebrate every time.
I recalled the little things I had with Mr. Qin in this coffin shop before, and suddenly I became worried, so I took out my cell phone, found Mr. Qin's cell phone number again and dialed it.
It’s still the same as before, and I can’t get through at all. I don’t know where Mr. Qin went and when he could come back.
After hanging up the phone, I looked at the time on my phone. It was almost time. Just as I got up and was about to go out to move the paper man outside the store to spend money, Hua Xiangyue suddenly walked in from outside the store.
She walked into the store and looked at me and asked:
"Did you have dinner at the ninth day of the lunar month?"
I shook my head:
"not yet."
"I didn't eat either. Let's go, sister, I'll take you to have something delicious now." Hua Xiangyue said to me.
"What are you going to eat?" I asked.
Flowers to the Moon:
"You will know when you go with me. Hurry up and close the store. After dinner, we will set out to the ghost market."
"Okay, wait for me a while, I will move the things in first." I said and moved all the paper people and wreaths outside the store into the store. Then I saw that the weather seemed a little bad today, so I closed all the doors and windows in the store before leaving, and then I went to have dinner with Hua Xiangyue.
On the way to the dining place, I couldn't help asking curiously:
"Miss Hua, what are you going to take me to eat?"
Hua Xiangyue seemed to have something to worry about, and kept thinking down, as if she hadn't heard what I said just now.
"Miss Hua?" I shouted again.
Hua Xiangyue then reacted:
"Ah? Chujiu, what's wrong?"
"I just asked you what you are going to take me to eat?" I repeated the question just now.
Hua Xiangyue said to me:
"It'll be here soon, and you'll know it when you arrive."
So I followed Hua Xiangyue and walked into a small alley in front, passed through the alley, turned two more turns, and then I saw a house with a door open. There was a sign written in paint hanging in front of the door of the house. There were only three words on the sign:
"Big Chicken."
"The ninth day of the lunar month is here. When I was wandering around Gugu County alone, I saw this big plate chicken hidden in the alley. It was made by an old man and the taste was great. It was the best big plate chicken I have ever eaten in my life." Hua Xiangyue said and took me into this house.
Inside the house is a small courtyard with three tables placed in the courtyard. At this time, there was no one in the yard, only two white cats lying leisurely on the ground, shaking their tails.
"Is anyone here?" Hua Xiangyue stood in the yard and shouted.
Soon, an old man with a hunchback opened the door and walked out in a room in the yard:
"Here, come..."
"Old man, one big plate of chicken, two cold skins! The spicyer the better!" Hua Xiangyue said and looked back at me and asked:
"Dajiu, you should have spicy food, too?"
I nodded:
"I eat, I eat spicy..."
The old man agreed and went to the kitchen to work hard. Hua Xiangyue and I found a seat and sat down.
Soon the old man brought the chicken to the table. I only smelled the smell and knew that the chicken must be good.
"Take it on the ninth day of the lunar month." Hua Xiangyue looked at me with anticipation.
"Okay." I said, picking up a piece of chicken with chopsticks and putting it in my mouth. The chicken was surprisingly delicious, fragrant and spicy, and had a special fragrance. It was a delicious food that I couldn't stop after taking a bite.
...
Hua Xiangyue and I directly finished the big plate of chicken and two portions of cold skin. After eating and drinking, it was completely dark. Hua Xiangyue looked at the time and said to me:
"Let's go on the 9th day of the year, I'll take you to buy tickets to the ghost market first."
"Okay, I'll pay the bill." I said and got up to pay.
After leaving the yard, Hua Xiangyue took me to the bus station.
When we arrived at the bus station, Hua Xiangyue helped me buy a ticket to Suka City. At 2 pm, we got into the bus and drove for more than three hours before we arrived at Suka City Station.
After walking out of the station, Hua Xiangyue immediately stopped a taxi. After she told the driver an address, the car drove quickly towards the city.
At 6:30 pm, Hua Xiangyue and I got off the taxi and came to the bustling city center of Suka City.
Looking at the bright lights and wine around me, I was a little dazzled.
Hua Xiangyue took me to a private club again. In the club, we saw a middle-aged man with white hair. Hua Xiangyue spent 40,000 yuan to buy two passes to the Ghost Market, which is the ticket.
After walking out of the club, I said to Hua Xiangyue:
"Miss Hua, I'll transfer the money to you, please collect it."
After hearing this, Hua Xiangyue looked at me and said:
"June 9, I'm joking with you. Do you really think I'll ask you to pay for tickets? I won't charge this money. When the time comes, let it return it."
Hua Xiangyue said and handed me the ticket:
Chapter completed!
