Hu Lingling said as she opened the door and got out of the car.However, when she saw that He Qian and Lu Chen were still sitting in the car, she asked curiously, "What"s wrong? "Why didn"t you come down?"
He Qian and Lu Chen exchanged a quick glance, each revealing a wry smile.
The two of them clearly did not expect this little girl to change her mind so quickly.
He leaned the car closer and paid a nearby gatekeeper a hundred yuan of parking fees. He Qian then led the two to the entrance of the antique market"s back door.
Upon entering, it was much brighter inside than outside. At least the floor could be seen clearly.
Although Hu Lingling felt that the one hundred yuan parking fee was too expensive, she still chose to remain silent.Because she noticed that the other people who drove in seemed to have the same parking price.
Moreover, in such a short period of time, she had already seen at least four groups of guests.
She couldn"t help but think about how much the guard guarding the back door would receive in a single night.Along the way, Hu Lingling pulled He Qian and asked around. Naturally, it was all about the Ghost Market.
He Qian told Hu Lingling that this ghost market could be said to be a microcosm of the whole Jiang Prefecture city, with its most cultural characteristics.
This was because the most primitive and pure culture of Jiang Prefecture was preserved here.She honestly admitted that she was a very traditional person. Therefore, she would often take the time to come here and experience things every month. Occasionally, she would try to exchange some things that she liked.
No matter if it was true or false, he would only buy them to his liking.
This time, Lu Chen was also a little surprised.
He never thought that such a beautiful girl like He Qian would actually be so keen on visiting places like the Ghost Market, where both the real and the fake, where both the fish and the dragon were mixed in.
"Senior, can I understand that there are actually very few genuine goods here? However, many people only say the price of the real thing, but in reality, they are all selling it as fake."
"In other words, even they themselves don"t know the true value of the item in their hands." Hu Lingling asked with a smile.
"Of course you can." He Qian smiled and said, "Occasionally, there will be real treasures appearing here as well, and they are priceless ones, but their origins are hard to guess."
"Of course, if your eyesight is good enough, you can buy good things at a very low price. That"s why everyone is so happy to have a good eye and try their luck here. "
Hu Lingling couldn"t help feeling a bit nervous. She lowered her voice and said, "Then according to what you said, it must be full of people." We... Is there any danger? "He Qian was stunned for a moment, then nodded. "When I came here before, I was always accompanied. However, he felt rather uncomfortable with them following him. And she has to dress up as a man. "
"So, this is the first time I"m dressed like a woman today?" Hu Lingling seemed to have grasped something as she asked curiously.
He Qian nodded and glanced at Lu Chen, smiling as she said: "With your brother here, what is there to be afraid of? With how skilled he is, he will definitely be able to protect you. "
"What are you talking about!?" It"s us, alright? " As Hu Lingling spoke, she held onto He Qian"s arm and said to Lu Chen, "Big brother, tell me, right?"
Lu Chen smiled gently: "This kind of place looks like it"s filled with both dragons and snakes, but it actually has its own rules. Under normal circ.u.mstances, no one would dare to act rashly." Otherwise, who would be willing to come here? "Hu Lingling looked at He Qian and asked, "Is that so?" "Senior apprentice-sister."
"More or less! Still, he had to be careful. After all, the local tyrants are in accordance with the rules, and some might not even be able to cross the river. " He Qian said lightly.
Hu Lingling nodded thoughtfully and didn"t say anything else.
"The Ghost Market is open at 8 PM. We came early today, so we"ll go to the ATM next door to get some cash." As the three of them continued forward, He Qian suddenly pointed to a small alley on the right.
"Cash? Is it swiping a card or WeChat Alipay? "Cash is a lot of trouble." Hu Lingling asked with suspicion.
He Qian smiled and said, "In the ghost market, cards and cell phones are often unworkable. Most of them, especially those who have real ones, only recognize cash. "It"s to avoid trouble and not leave any traces behind after the transaction."
Hu Lingling nodded thoughtfully. "Those who sell fake goods are afraid that the buyer will look for trouble later on. The reason why they sold the real one might be because of the origin of the goods, as well as the fear of trouble."
He Qian only smiled and nodded in agreement.
Hu Lingling also realized that there were more and more people around her as they went deeper and deeper into the cave. Therefore, she obediently shut her mouth.As the local tyrant of Jiang Prefecture City, He Qian was clearly very familiar with this place.
She brought the two of them familiarly to a place where there was an ATM machine.
There were actually ten ATM machines lined up here, all of them from different banks.
They even found two men with snakeskin bags in the corner.Just a moment ago, someone had directly swiped 30,000 yuan from their hands through WeChat.
He actually paid a hundred and fifty yuan as the service fee.
He Qian told Hu Lingling that if she was guaranteed by her acquaintances, she could even borrow some cash from them. However, the interest was very high.
He Qian took out three bank cards and held them in her hands. She had taken out a total of 60,000 yuan in cash.
Lu Chen had only wanted to take a look, but when someone had walked past him earlier, they discovered that there was a faint trace of spiritual force emitting from his chest. Lu Chen couldn"t help but feel surprised.But when he concentrated on it, he felt nothing.
Only then did the little fox tell him that that person had a true treasure in his hands. It already possessed a considerable amount of intelligence, which was why such a situation had occurred.However, this type of spiritual force was only present occasionally, and was not always felt.
It was for this reason that he had accidentally felt its existence just now, but it had then disappeared without a trace.
To put it bluntly, the spiritual energy was too weak and unstable.
Of course, if it was nurtured by the power of merit, or if it was placed in a place with abundant spiritual energy for several decades, it could officially form a spirit, or even a consciousness.This consciousness was often called an artifact spirit.
For ordinary items, the appearance of an artifact spirit was as rare as phoenix feathers or qilin horns, but a refined artifact was much easier.
The most important thing was, whether it was the spirit energy in the antique or the spirit energy in the artifact, it was extremely easy for Lu Chen who possessed the power of merit to refine it and then quickly absorb it into his body."You mean, as long as there"s spiritual energy emitted from it, it would all be treasures?" Lu Chen said, enlightened.
"That is the truth. However, that"s all. In this Age of Chaos, those who truly want to obtain a treasure with a Weapon Spirit are like looking for a needle in a haystack. " The little fox could not help but pour cold water on Lu Chen.
However, Lu Chen smiled: "It"s better than having a black eye at least. If there was, he would think of ways to get it. If not, just earn a little bit of money to improve your life. "
Thinking this, Lu Chen took out his bank card.
