Walking down the mountainous road in Xiaohe Village, which was full of mud and stones, Wang Zhifan turned his head and looked around from time to time, trying to find a house that looked like a store.
He remembered that Xiaoqiang said on the way here that there were people selling things in this village, and they were all good things that could deal with ghosts, so he wanted to make a purchase before entering the Dead Soul Land. At least make up for the missing incense.
However, the houses that came into his sight at this time were all ordinary and dilapidated residential houses. None of the villagers who appeared in his field of vision seemed to be planning to do business. Almost every villager had him in their eyes. The kind of resistance and hostility he had seen when he went up the mountain made him suspicious.
"I thought I missed it when I came over, but there was no shop... Could it be that the shop is Grandma Xiaoqiang's house? But it was just an ordinary thatched house..."
Just there When Wang Zhifan stopped and thought about whether to go down the mountain directly, at the corner of the winding road leading down the mountain beside him, a figure carrying a load slowly appeared.
Wang Zhifan's perception was so keen. He immediately turned his head and stared at the figure coming up the mountain, and suddenly realized that the person he was looking for should have appeared.
I saw an old man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties, wearing black cloth clothes and straw sandals. The old man had gray hair but his body seemed to be relatively strong. He carried two large shopping baskets on his shoulders and carried a small one on his back. With such a small cargo box, he could still walk uphill even though he was carrying so much weight. At first glance, he looked like a senior salesman.
Seeing this, Wang Zhifan prepared to wait for the old man to come to the village entrance, and then went up to ask him what he had to sell.
Unexpectedly, the old man who picked the goods moved faster than him. He shouted to him when he was still more than ten meters away from the village entrance:
"Young boy! I think you are going to go." That place is broken!
I have all kinds of talismans, glutinous rice, donkey hooves, black dog blood, Buddhist beads, wooden swords, and jade pendants here!
Would you like to buy some? There is no shop like this after passing this village! "
The old man's voice was quite loud and full of energy. Not only Wang Zhifan, who was nearest to him, was hearing thunder, but also the players who were some distance away on the road behind him also turned their heads to look at the head of the village.
“Old man, I want to buy some incense. "
When Wang Zhifan saw this, he stepped forward directly and said to the old seller who quickened his pace and came to the entrance of the village to put down the load of goods.
"There is plenty of incense! A handful of thirty sticks makes up an ocean! You can sell them individually!"
The old shopkeeper was quite enthusiastic when he saw the customer coming. He bent down and took out a handful of incense from the basket and offered it to the customer. Wang Zhifan explained the price in a loud voice.
Wang Zhifan immediately saw a piece of item information appearing in front of his eyes:
[A bundle of incense (fine quality)]
[Don’t think that this bundle of incense looks ordinary, in fact It was made by a master craftsman and has excellent effects. It can be used to worship gods or pay homage to the dead. It may be helpful to you at some point. 】
"I don't have a big ocean on my hands. Can I use gold and silver instead?"
After quickly scanning the text in front of him, Wang Zhifan responded. He obviously didn't have a so-called big ocean on his hands. Even he didn't I don’t know what the ocean in this world looks like.
"Yes, yes, but young man, you know it's hard to get goods here. If you don't go overseas, the price will go up a bit."
The old shopkeeper took a second look after hearing this. Scanning Wang Zhifan's body up and down, he frowned slightly, as if he was a little confused about how the young man in front of him, who looked so talented, didn't even have an ocean on his body.
“Okay, is this silver enough?”
Wang Zhifan then reached out and handed the old salesman a silver ingot from the world of Fengxuelou, which made the salesman's eyes suddenly light up.
"What a beautiful piece of silver! Which dynasty is this from? Why can't I see it at all, old man?"
The old man flipped the silver ingot in his hand to confirm the weight and observed it carefully. The appearance and details of it, trying to determine its quality and origin.
“I don’t know either, but this silver is absolutely genuine.”
Wang Zhifan replied, then reached out to pick up the bundle of incense that the old seller had just taken out, and at the same time observed the contents of his goods frame. Something else exposed.
There are quite a lot of miscellaneous items in the two cargo baskets. At a casual glance, you can find candles, talismans, shovels, red ropes, jars, wooden swords, etc. The professionalism is quite obvious, and Wang Zhifan also explains it one by one. One after another appeared before my eyes.
[Candle (Excellent)]
[This is a high-quality fire candle. It would be wasteful to only use it for lighting. It is more suitable for detecting whether there are ghosts around.
When ghosts and evil objects approach, its candlelight will change color. If it turns green, it means that it is an evil spirit, and if it turns red, it means a vicious corpse. 】
【Yellow Talisman Paper (fine))】
[Standard materials that can be used to make paper charms contain some mysterious power and can sometimes temporarily resist some imps. 】
【Nuomi (fine)】
【Ordinary zombies hate this kind of thing. You can use it to drive away zombies. If you are unfortunately bitten by a zombie, you can also try applying it to the wound. Use some to remove the poison. 】
[Black Donkey Hooves (Exquisite)]
[A treasure for dealing with zombies. As long as you are not a zombie king, you will be more or less afraid of it. You may even use it to hit ordinary zombies directly. Causing a kill. 】
[Luoyang shovel (excellent)]
[How can you go to tomb robbing without a good shovel? This shovel will definitely meet the needs of most tomb robbers, but please note that it is only a tool and not suitable as a weapon. 】
[Red rope (excellent)]
[A special red rope commonly used by ghost hunters. It can be used to bind weak ghosts, but when facing powerful ghosts, it will definitely It couldn't last more than two seconds. 】
【Urine tank (exquisite)】
[This jar is filled with child urine. It is effective in driving away ordinary ghosts, but powerful ghosts will be angered. ]
[Ghost Jar (Rare)]
[You read that right, this jar contains a ghost. Although this ghost has been initially tamed and can fight for you, it is recommended that Let people with good moral principles drive you, otherwise it will be easy for the ghost in the jar to bite you. 】
[Bloodwood Sword (Rare)]
[Made from century-old peach wood and the blood of healthy adult roosters that hatched at the solstice, it has great restraint against various ghosts and monsters. effect.
The only thing to note is that it is not very strong. Once it is damaged during use, its effectiveness will be greatly reduced or even scrapped. 】
..."Even rare-level items are sold directly in the basket. This salesman is not simple...I don't know what is in the box behind him. Could it be Excellent-level?"
After scanning the item descriptions that appeared in front of him, Wang Zhifan realized that this old salesman was the NPC merchant mentioned in the dungeon opening information, and could bring players The kind that brings direct profit, so he said to the salesman who had not finished thinking about the silver ingots in his hand:
"Old man, your bundle of incense is definitely not worth the silver ingots I gave you. I want to buy something more, so you can Take out all the goods and show them to me.”
After hearing this, the old salesman still didn’t take his eyes away from the silver ingot in his hand, and replied casually:
"The goods are all in the basket, you pick it yourself."
Wang Zhifan had no choice but to make it clear:
"Isn't there a box behind you? Aren't the things in it for sale?"
The salesman immediately shook his head after hearing this and replied:
“That’s where I put food, old man, and some custom-made things, but all the things have been given away.”< br>
"Okay, then I'll get six more candles and a wooden sword."
Wang Zhifan then said his choice to test the salesman's reaction.
As a result, the old shopkeeper turned his attention from the silver ingot in his hand to him as he had guessed. He frowned and said seriously:
"Young man, don't be too greedy. Although the silver ingots you gave are not bad, they are not enough to buy a blood wood sword, let alone other things.”
“It’s not enough for me to add another one, okay?”
< br>
Wang Zhifan began to negotiate the price with him.
After a short while, Wang Zhifan paid two silver ingots in exchange for a bundle of incense, four candles and a blood wood sword from the old seller.
In fact, he did not specifically need these things to play the dungeon, but to satisfy the need to jump to the master, so that his own would look normal when dancing to the master.
After all, with his strength and equipment, he really can't look down on the rare things. He doesn't think that the legends and epics he owns are not as good as these miscellaneous things.
When Wang Zhifan walked down the mountain with his things, the players behind him also gathered around him.
These players obviously would not let go of the opportunity to purchase targeted props. They purchased candles, glutinous rice, black donkey hooves, red ropes, blood wood swords and other items one after another. This also caused some disputes, but these had nothing to do with Wang Zhifan.
On the way down the mountain, Wang Zhifan put the incense, candles and wooden swords he bought into the space ring, then summoned the red deer horse, and rode the red deer horse straight to the mountain pass that Xiaoqiang pointed out before.
Along the way, he rode a horse over mountains and ridges. The first half of the journey felt relatively normal, but as he got closer to the mountain pass, he noticed an increasingly ominous atmosphere in the air, and even the red deer horse under his crotch He showed an anxious mood and seemed a little unwilling to rush to the direction he pointed out.
"Red Deer has been on the battlefield with me. It is not as timid as ordinary horses. It shows emotions, which shows that the land of dead souls is indeed evil."
I realized that Red Deer Horse is After the warning, Wang Zhifan dismounted decisively and released the red deer in a safe area back to its secret place of survival. Anyway, by this time he had already arrived near the mountain pass leading to the Land of Dead Souls.
Looking at the mountain pass in the dark mountains ahead, Wang Zhifan couldn't see much abnormality at first glance, but at the second glance, he realized that the mountain pass did not seem to be a dead thing. After a few more glances, he vaguely felt that the mountain pass was a piece of darkness. The big mouth is waiting for the ingredients from outside to enter it.
If you look into the mountain pass, you will also find that the air inside is constantly rolling and flowing with an inexplicable dark feeling, making the large wasteland inside seem to be shaking as a whole.
"What a strong evil spirit, it has turned into a real air current."
It can be said that ordinary people can detect that something is wrong with this kind of scene, but Wang Zhifan cannot stop there. Without hesitation, he crossed the mountain pass that was at least 100 meters wide and entered the scope of the Dead Soul Land.
After coming in, his first feeling was that the air in this place was the same as what he saw outside the mountain pass, with a special darkness. It was not the normal completely transparent state, but it was not filled with fog either. This feeling is very strange.
Due to the flow of air or evil energy, a dark wind with no fixed direction blew in his ears, accompanied by strange and uncomfortable wind sounds, creating an atmosphere only found in supernatural movies, even though it was still daytime.
What’s even more damning is that this weird atmosphere is not just superficial. Wang Zhifan soon discovered that a dozen evil auras quickly appeared around him, and each evil aura was paying attention to the person who just came in. He exudes cold malice.
For example, a few hundred meters in front of him, the figure of a woman with long hair and white clothes suddenly appeared. Her eyes were pale and her face was rotten. She glanced at him from a distance, and the corners of her mouth with rotten gums began to expand, and the figure It disappeared and reappeared in an instant, appearing closer to him.
Beside Wang Zhifan, two dark-faced children emerged from the ground. While giggling, they took off each other's heads and played a head-tossing game.
On the other side, the originally flat land suddenly rose up, forming the shape of a tomb. The surface of the tomb then cracked a hole, revealing a dark red coffin, slowly moving towards the direction of Wang Zhifan. Slide to move.
Other directions farther away were not willing to remain calm. All kinds of monsters and monsters showed their whereabouts and gradually surrounded the place where Wang Zhifan was standing.
However, Wang Zhifan, who had endured all the evil pressure, immediately raised the corners of his mouth and laughed.
"Haha... How dare you, a group of brats, stand up in front of me? Kill them!"
I saw him suddenly pull out his sword from its sheath, and the Qingdi Sword, which was as bright as sapphire, was in his hand. With an arc-shaped slash, a huge arc-shaped bright sword light burst out, instantly smashing the female ghost in front of him and the coffin on the side.
The female ghost in white didn't even make a sound and disappeared instantly without a trace, seemingly being wiped out by ashes. The coffin was even more ridiculous. Half of the broken coffin was left on the ground, and the other half retreated into the ground as if it was running away. Don't dare to show up.
All the other ghosts and ghosts around them disappeared in the blink of an eye. They were obviously frightened away by the power of Wang Zhifan's sword just now, and gave up the drama of surrounding and intimidating them.
“Those two ghosts were not killed instantly by me...Although I just fired the sword light at random, it’s not bad that they could barely catch it.”
The first enemy encountered blinked. They all ran away, but Wang Zhifan did not underestimate them.
The reason is that their performance exceeded his prediction. Not only did not one of them die, but they also knew how to advance and retreat and had basic wisdom.
These ghosts and monsters are undoubtedly the leftovers of the Dead Soul Land. It is nothing to scare them away. Killing them all is bound to not make much profit, so Wang Zhifan ignored them and went straight Heading towards the depths of the dead soul.
Not long after he left, he noticed that the sky was getting dark quickly, and night was coming, which also meant that the risk factor in this place would further increase.
"I heard from Xiaoqiang's grandma that it is safest to be in a ruined temple at night... Let's look for it."
He then consciously searched for a safe area to spend the next month. Lay the foundation. (End of this chapter)
