Chapter 89: Be careful with candles in the dead of night
In the ghost market, Chen Xu stood at this end of the street.
Looking at Ji Weizi on the other side of the street, his lips did not move, but his voice was like a thin thread, reaching his ears across dozens of feet.
Ji Weizi taught him a method, saying: "You have the best poetic talent in the world. You should write excellent poems in the examination hall and attract the emergence of green energy.
Combined with the methods I taught, the upper dantian will naturally open up.
By then, your literary talent will have matured, and even if the examiner had never recognized you before, he would not dare to reject you when grading the papers."
Having said that, Ji Weizi laughed out loud.
It seemed as if he was thinking of some interesting past events.
"The startled wind blows away the sun, and the glory flows westward." He sang with emotion, "The heyday will never come again, and a hundred years have passed in a flash..."
A light sigh was heard, and the sound was still at the entrance of the ghost market, but the figure that looked like a living person had gradually disappeared.
Chen Xu took a step forward, subconsciously wanting to go forward and see him off.
But as soon as he took this step, the disappearing figure disappeared in the moonlight.
Such heroic spirits, when they come, they are worshipped three times, and when they leave, they disappear without a trace.
Chen Xu stopped and felt a little disappointed.
Then the owner of Wuxiangfang turned half of her beautiful face and smiled, saying, "Mr. Ji wants to say goodbye to Minister Chen, and I also want to say goodbye to Minister Chen.
After all, this is the underworld, and living people should not stay here for long.
If too many come, people in the mortal world will easily encounter ghosts."
She spoke in a low voice and bowed to Chen Xufu from a distance.
Before Chen Xu could even bow in return, he suddenly saw everything around him frozen in an instant.
The whole world seemed like a painting, washed by a heavy rain, and then the moonlit streets and the ghosts of vendors all melted away like ink.
In the blink of an eye, I suddenly heard a lot of voices nearby.
Someone was snoring in a deep sleep, a student was reading at night, a candle flame was swaying slightly in the wind, and in the distance the night watchman was beating his clapper and shouting:
"It's late at night, be careful with candles—"
It turned out that he had returned to the human world from the underworld.
Looking around again, I saw that it was still the same room in the inn where I came from.
There were still eight ancient bronze lamps placed on the floor of the room, but the flames on these eight lamps were now so weak that they were almost non-existent.
Chen Xu sensed carefully and found that he could still sense the underworld at any time and step into it.
However, you cannot go to the Cangyuan Ghost Market, which is different from going through the underworld.
Currently, the only way to reach the underworld is to use the small paths in the foggy wasteland. As for what the vast underworld is like, Chen Xu cannot sense it and has no way of understanding it for the time being.
But Youming Wujian's magical power also has another ability, which allows him to randomly enter a nearby ghost market on the first and fifteenth day of every month.
It is now the end of March, and there are only a few days left until the first day of next month.
On the first day of every month, when the moon is backlit, the netherworld power of the big world settles like the ebbing tide.
On the fifteenth day, when the moon is full and rising, the energy of the moon will surge, and the power of the netherworld will overflow like a tide.
Whether the tide is high or low, it is the perfect time to sense the ghost market.
Chen Xu stood in the room, carefully experiencing the power of his own supernatural powers and feeling the difference between the underworld and the human world.
He has not yet decided whether to go to the ghost market again on the first day of next month. The ghost market he randomly enters may not necessarily be the Cangyuan Ghost Market, and not every ghost market will allow him to come and go freely.
However, the probability of going to the Cangyuan Ghost Market is relatively high, after all, the two sides have already "established a connection".
Chen Xu was thinking, no matter which ghost market he randomly entered, he shouldn't rush. He should take some time to calm down and make the most of the available resources to improve his cultivation.
At the same time, read more books and see a wider world.
In the final analysis, it was because his cultivation was not strong enough and he lacked a sense of security.
In this world, many things may be false, only cultivation is the most real.
Chen Xu let out a sigh, filled with emotion.
He looked at the eight bronze lamps in the room. County Magistrate Feng and Feng Xi had not yet returned from the underworld, so Chen Xu naturally would not touch these eight lamps.
Chen Xu was about to go and report his safety to Wu Zhengze, but just as he took a step, he heard someone knocking on the door.
When I opened the door, who else could it be but Master Wu standing outside?
It turned out that Wu Zhengze had been paying close attention to what was happening on his side.
Chen Xu was in a hurry to welcome the man in, but Wu Zhengze just looked him up and down. He saw that not only was he not injured, but his aura seemed to be even calmer than before.
Wu Zhengze smiled slightly and said, "Forget it, I won't go in.
Extraordinary people always have to do extraordinary things. It is enough for you to know how to take care of yourself."
After saying that, he handed the wooden box in his hand to Chen Xu. The box contained the pile of spiritual objects that Feng Yuanbai had given him earlier.
Finally, Wu Zhengze said, "It's late, you should get some rest. You've been studying hard in the inn these days. Everything just waits until the college entrance examination is over."
Without asking whether Feng Yuanbai rescued Feng Xi, nor asking about Chen Xu's specific experience in the underworld, Wu Zhengze returned to his room after delivering the box.
What Chen Xu didn't know was that after Wu Zhengze returned to his room, he actually paced around the room a few more times.
He sent Bai Yi to the capital. Although Bai Yi was a spiritual pigeon, it was actually just beginning to gain spiritual power. Its flying speed was limited, and it would take at least ten days to go back and forth.
Wu Zhengze now only hopes that Bai Yi can return before the end of Chen Xuyuan Examination.
He secretly shook his head, sighed silently, and thought to himself: Young people are good in everything, but it is easy for them to attract attention when they become famous at a young age.
The most important thing is that the ghost market suddenly appeared in Shili Changting. Is this just Wang Ji’s prank, or is there another conspiracy behind it?
Regardless of whether County Magistrate Feng can rescue Feng Xi or not, it is expected that this matter will not be easily resolved.
Feng Xi is not the only one who has been harmed by the ghost market.
I'm afraid that even a small Yunjiang Prefecture is about to be in turmoil.
I just don’t know which company is targeted by this incident?
Wu Zhengze didn't want to get involved in muddy waters, nor did he want Chen Xu to get involved in muddy waters.
He felt that his cultivation was insufficient, so he wanted to send a letter to Yujing. In any case, it would be good to provide this talented young man with an extra layer of security.
Chen Xu didn't know all this, but he could feel Master Wu's care in his heart.
He closed the door, held the wooden box and sat down at the table, first trying to use the ability of "opening up Yin attribute space" in the Netherworld Magical Power.
In other words, it is about sensing yin and yang, and sensing a small node that can be controlled by oneself in the gap between the rotation of yin and yang.
Then pull, mark and expand it.
In this way, you can create your own personal space and achieve an ability similar to the Taoist "universe in your sleeve".
Chen Xu decided to name this ability: Jiuyou Cangxu.
With his mind focused, his thoughts wandered, and in just a moment he caught a glimpse of a subtle, vague point.
His spirit is still not strong enough, and his current mental perception can only be within three feet around him.
But when he calmed his mind, he could clearly see the many details and mysteries within this three-meter world.
This includes the wind formed when the air moves, the fire that may exist when the temperature rises, the ubiquitous water vapor, and the subtle spirituality.
Or in other words, it is the spiritual energy of heaven and earth!
