Chapter 6 - The Mysterious Old Man

There was a sound of iron chains rattling on the iron gate, and then the four of us saw the iron door in front of us slowly begin to slide upward.

When the iron door was halfway open, we saw the blurry scene inside. When the iron door was completely opened, the scene in front of us still shocked the four of us.

There was a long street ahead, and Gao Feng held my arm even more tightly at this time. I could already feel Gao Feng's hand holding my arm starting to tremble.

I saw that the street was only about three or four meters wide, and there were a few wooden stalls scattered in the middle. There were some incense, paper money and other things on the stalls, but these stalls, including the street, were a

No one is there.

But the two sides of the street are not shops, but two walls made of black stone bricks. These walls are estimated to be more than four meters high, but there is not even a ghost on this street.

At this moment, I felt someone tap me on the shoulder. I turned my head and looked to the right. I saw a wooden chair on the wall on the left, and a man wearing linen clothes with a head on his head.

An old man in a big bamboo hat was watching me next to me.

Because there is not much light here, there are only two torches on the left and right sides, and because the old man is wearing a bamboo hat, I can't see the old man's face at all.

The old man didn't speak. He raised his head and looked at the four of us. Then he reached into his arms with a skinny hand. After groping for a while, he took out four yellow wooden signs from his arms.

I stretched out my hand and took over a wooden sign. This wooden sign was about the size of a child's hand, and was wrapped in an unknown metal. On the wooden sign were engraved two small traditional Chinese characters, Ghost Market.

I nodded to the three people behind me, and then the three of them also took the wooden sign from the old man's hand.

The three of them all looked down at the wooden signs in their hands, and then began to observe them carefully.

At this moment, Li Kun forgot what I said. After coming here, don't speak anything when you see anything.

Li Kun looked down at the wooden sign, then raised his head and said to me: "Old Liu, how much can this thing be worth?"

As soon as I finished speaking, I suddenly raised my head and looked at Li Kun. Then I turned my head and looked at the old man beside me again. I saw that the old man had already

Not by my side, I then heard Li Kun's cry coming from behind me.

The moment I heard Li Kun's cry, I suddenly turned my head and saw that the old man had appeared behind Li Kun at some point, and the old man was holding a dim kerosene lamp in his hand.

He was holding it at the back of Li Kun's head.

At this time, Li Kun's whole body had begun to tremble, and a layer of cold sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead. In just two seconds, Li Kun's entire face had turned livid, and although his mouth was

He opened his mouth, but no sound could be made at this time.

When I saw this, I immediately felt that something was wrong. I thought that this guy Li Kun had turned a deaf ear to my words.

Gao Feng and Tian Tian were stunned when they saw this scene. After Gao Feng calmed down, he opened his mouth and wanted to scream out of habit.

When Tian Tian next to her saw Gao Feng's actions, she rushed to Gao Feng's side, raised her hand and covered Gao Feng's mouth.

Gao Feng also reacted at this time. Fortunately, Tian Tian covered his mouth with his hand just now, otherwise he would be the next one to get into trouble.

I hurriedly walked to the old man, but without saying a word, I hurriedly took out the yellow wooden sign that the old man had just given me from my arms, bowed to the old man in front of me, and held it with both hands.

The yellow wooden sign was stretched out in front of the old man.

And in just a few seconds, Li Kun's face turned from livid to sallow. He tried hard to open his mouth and try to breathe, but Li Kun only felt as if something was pinching his throat, and his body was not even at all.

unable to move.

If this continues, Li Kun will suffocate to death in less than ten seconds.

The old man turned his head to look at me at this time. When he saw me hunched over holding a wooden sign with both hands and handing it to him, the old man frowned. Then he looked up at Li Kun, who had stiffened, and smiled slightly.

He sighed, and then slowly put down the kerosene lamp in his hand.

And the moment the old man put down the kerosene lamp, the kerosene lamp that had the wick burning just now was completely extinguished, as if it had not been lit just now.

Then the old man looked at me carefully for a while, then nodded slowly, but did not take away the wooden sign in my hand.

And just in old

The moment the person moved, Li Kun collapsed on the ground and started breathing heavily.

After Li Kun lay on the ground and panted for a while, his sallow face began to slowly turn rosy. At this time, Li Kun also understood. Now Li Kun knew why I said that, no matter what happened, I would

The reason for not talking anymore.

I bowed to the old man again, then squatted down and helped Li Kun up. Li Kun raised his hand and rubbed his neck, and then bowed deeply to the old man.

At this time, the old man slowly sat down on the wooden chair just now, raised his hand and pointed forward, meaning to let us continue to move forward.

I nodded, then looked at the three people around me, and patted Li Kun on the shoulder. Li Kun nodded to indicate that there was no problem.

Seeing that Li Kun was fine, I stepped forward and took Gao Feng's hand, then I raised my steps and started to walk slowly forward.

I was still walking first, with Gao Feng behind me, followed by Tian Tian and Li Kun.

At this time, Li Kun was still afraid of what happened. Li Kun turned around and looked, but the scene in front of him made Li Kun tremble again.

The old man sitting on the chair at the door had disappeared. Li Kun looked back and forth. There were stone walls more than four meters high on both sides. There was nothing else at all, but the old man just now was clearly here.

Inside, and the big iron door is not opening.

Seeing this, Li Kun felt a sense of fear, and secretly thought to himself, is this old man a human or a ghost? He was still here just now, why is there no shadow of a ghost left behind now? Could it be that this old guy is not a human, but a ghost?

Thinking of this, Li Kun quickly followed Tian Tian in front of him. Although we were moving forward slowly, Li Kun at the back only felt a chill on his back and felt that something was staring at him from behind.

Same as myself.

In fact, there is no reason why Li Kun is like this. Anyone who has just encountered such a thing will have such a mentality.

At this time, I was still moving forward slowly. When we advanced about twenty meters, a double wooden gate appeared in front of us.

When I saw this wooden gate, my heart immediately relaxed, and I secretly thought: "Finally we are at the right place."
