"… No matter what you hear, don't open the door or the windows, and don't go out."
The waiter brought a pot of hot water into the room and said to Chu Rui very politely. His words were sincere, and his expression was sincere.
"Oh, there's such a rule. I was going to go out for a stroll in the night market later! "
Chu Rui was stunned and somewhat puzzled. Why was this? Since he was in this ancient city, he should go out for a stroll in the night market and experience the unique cultural atmosphere. Moreover, time was tight, and he wanted to explore the bottom line of this place at night and inquire about the Life Pearl. However, he was told that there was such a deceitful setting, wasn't this asking for his life?
"Sir, there's something you don't know. Our Plentiful City is not like other ancient cities, we don't have a night market here. During the day, we people are in charge here, but at night, when the ghost gate opens, the ghost is in charge here. Therefore, living people must not go out at night. If you encounter a ghost, it will be difficult to deal with. If you're lucky and encounter a good ghost, you can save your little life. If you're unlucky and encounter a malicious ghost, your Yang Qi will be sucked away, and in the worst case, you'll die on the spot. So, sir, I advise you not to doubt it, and don't joke with your little life. "
The waiter habitually wiped the table with the cloth on his shoulder, but his movements were very casual, and his eyes were very serious, and he was not joking.
"Is that so? I know. In that case, help me prepare some food, I'm afraid I may be hungry later. "
Chu Rui looked outside, and it was already evening and close to night. In this season, it was almost seven o 'clock. For other cities, the time to make money had just arrived, but in Plentiful City, all the doors were closed.
After taking Chu Rui's gold coins, the waiter received a reward that was equivalent to one or two months of his salary, and happily went to prepare food for this generous big patron.
Chu Rui walked out of the door and went outside. Although the sky was not completely dark, the streets were already desolate, and it was a complete contrast to the bustling day. Most of the shops were closed, and none of the houses were open. However, the system's shops were still open.
Chu Rui went to a shop unique to this place to buy some protective talismans and cleansing water to ward off evil spirits. Only then did he return to the tavern.
After sending away the anxious waiter, Chu Rui closed the door to his room. He took out the charms and holy water that had special effects on Dark Element monsters, especially Spirit Element monsters, and enjoyed a delicious meal of Fengdu's unique delicacies. After that, he lay down on his bed and slept.
It was already late at night.
In the middle of the night, it was twelve o 'clock at night. At this moment, it was the time when Yin and Yang were alternating. Yin and Yang were in balance. Then, Yang would gradually decline and Yin would rise. This was the best time for ghosts to run amok.
Chu Rui, who was lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes. His very sharp ears had already heard the sound waves that did not belong to humans. To ordinary people, this sort of sound was simply inaudible. However, to those with spiritual awareness and spirituality, they were able to hear it. No matter what, Chu Rui was still a cultivator. Naturally, he could hear it.
He got out of bed and quietly went to the window. He gently opened a hole and looked down at the silent, deep, and empty street below. He opened his Heaven's Eye. One by one, transparent ghosts floated in the air. Beside them, there were black-clothed Ghost Messengers escorting them. A group of people, no, it should be a group of ghosts. They slowly walked towards the Ghost City that stood in this city.
There's a door!
Seeing this scene, Chu Rui's eyes flashed.
Fengdu, the most famous city, was naturally located in this city. It was the Ghost City that represented the Nine Nether Underworld. In reality, whether ghosts existed or not, Chu Rui did not know. He also did not know whether the Ghost City of Fengdu was really a ghost city. However, here, ghosts did exist. That Ghost City was naturally not a simple tourist attraction.
He raised his head and looked at the sky. The night moon was dreary, sprinkling rays of silver light. However, in this place, there was no beauty at all. There was only a bone-chilling coldness. The Yin Qi in this place was simply too dense. Originally, the night was the conversion of Yin and Yang. From the Yang of the day to the Yin, it was not suitable for people to appear. However, the Yin Qi here deepened, making the night even scarier. If it was a person with a weaker physique, even if there were no ghosts entangling them, under such circumstances, the Yin Qi would definitely enter their body, resulting in a tragedy.
The plan of flying in the sky could not be carried out. It seemed that he could only swagger forward like this!
Chu Rui was helpless. Originally, he wanted to fly over in the air and see where the group of Ghost Messengers escorted the ghosts to. However, the layer of Yin Qi in the air that ordinary people could not see was so thick that it made one's hair stand on end. Entering it was simply courting death. Therefore, he could only walk in obediently. Even if he was 100% discovered, he did not want to waste the opportunity. At present, finding the Life Pearl was more urgent than anything else.
Looking at the time, Chu Rui opened the window and jumped down!
There were more than a million ghosts passing through here. It was impossible for there to be an equal or even more number of Ghost Messengers escorting them. About ten to twenty meters, there was only one Ghost Messenger, holding a special long whip that could cause harm to ghosts that had turned into spiritual bodies and cause them extreme pain, escorting these ghosts.
Even though Rui had deliberately kept a low profile, and had eaten a lot of Yin-type food, and used the Yin-type items that he had bought before, he still had a strong Yang body. Even under such circumstances, and in this environment full of Yin-type energy, it was still unable to hide his dazzling radiance. No matter how hard he tried to hide, he was like a firefly in the dark, so dazzling and eye-catching.
As for the Ghost Messengers, because of the deliberate distance, they did not discover him immediately. However, Chu Rui ignored the ghosts around him. He had a strong Yang body, so for these ghosts that were full of Yin Qi, he was a super nemesis. As soon as he appeared, the surrounding ghosts immediately dodged as if they had been illuminated by the Eight Trigrams Mirror, wailing endlessly.
"F * ck, this is so f * cking annoying. I just want to go with you, not kill you. What are you crying for? F * ck, luckily I was wise and chose an inn that was closer to the Ghost City. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy! "
Chu Rui was extremely speechless. Was it so f * cking difficult to fish in troubled waters? Looking at the ferocious Ghost Constables rushing towards him, he did not say a word and immediately ran away.
