Chapter 5061 Mysterious Man

The morning of the twenty-first day of the first lunar month.

South of Chang'an in Guanzhong, Lantian County.

The once prosperous town has now become extremely desolate.

Ten years ago, when Ye Xiaochuan was recuperating here, it was still somewhat popular, and most of the shops on the street were still open.

Now, most of the shops are closed, and there are almost no people on the street. Domestic garbage is piled randomly on both sides of the street, with no one cleaning it.

After dressing up, Qin Guichen and Yuan Xiaolou walked out of the only grocery store that was still open in the town. The two women held many things in their arms and walked toward Sophora Flower Alley while talking and laughing. .

At this time, suddenly a middle-aged man in his early forties wearing green clothes came towards him.

The three of them passed by each other, but after only taking a few steps, the man in green suddenly stopped.

He turned to look at the backs of the two women.

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Seeing the two girls walking away, the man in green couldn't help but said: "You two girls, please stay."

Qin Guichen and Yuan Xiaolou couldn't help but stop when they heard this.

Since there was no one on this street, they naturally knew that they were being called.

When they saw that the other party was a middle-aged man with a Confucian temperament, the two women felt a little uneasy, worried that their identities would be recognized by the other party.

Yuan Xiaolou was timid and couldn't help but hide behind Qin Guichen.

Qin Guichen held a basket filled with daily necessities in her hands and said, "Sir, are you calling us?"

Looking at these two ordinary women dressed in linen and plain clothes, the man in green frowned again.

He walked forward slowly, his eyes swept over the two girls, and finally turned his head slightly to look at Yuan Xiaolou who was hiding behind.

He said: "Do you know where there is a coffin shop here?"

The two goddesses relaxed, it turned out they were asking for directions.

Qin Guichen is here for the first time, so naturally she is not familiar with this place.

So, Yuan Xiaolou pointed forward and said: "There is only a coffin shop in the town. It is at the end of the street. You can see it if you walk a few hundred feet."

The man in green nodded and said, "Thank you."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

The two girls watched him go away. When they saw that he was heading towards the coffin, they felt relieved and continued to talk and laugh.

After the two women turned into the alley, the man in green stopped.

He turned around and looked at the alley the two girls walked into.

He murmured: "You can feel it, too. The woman who showed the way contains a special power."

He wasn't talking to himself.

I saw his shadow on the ground twisting, as if it had a soul.

Immediately, a feminine voice sounded: "These two women are not ordinary humans. They are both extremely high cultivators, and they may both be in the realm of immortality."

The man in green nodded slightly and said: "Their cultivation is not ordinary, but what I am more concerned about is the aura of that woman. It seems to be the aura of the netherworld, but it seems not, which is very strange."

Shadow was silent for a moment and said: "In addition to the strange aura on her body, she should also have a very special magic weapon. I can feel the cold air of that magic weapon. This weak breath makes me feel Very scared.”

The man in green's eyes flashed. There weren't many magic weapons that could make the black shadow fearful. What's more, the opponent's magic weapon hadn't been activated yet.

Once activated, the black shadow will never be as simple as fear.

The man in green said: "Follow me and take a look, don't let them find you."

The shadow on the ground twisted a few more times, and then a subtle shadow merged into the shadow of the corner where the sun could not reach, and disappeared.

The man in green came to the coffin shop pointed by Yuan Xiaolou.

In troubled times, the business of the coffin shop will not be bad.

However, the business of this coffin shop seemed not to be very good. There was only a thin old man working with two workers with physical disabilities.

The coffins in the store are not good either. They are all thin-skinned coffins one or two inches thick. There are no good longevity coffins.

In addition to selling coffins, they also sell ingots, candles, incense, paper sacrifices, shrouds and the like.

The man in green clothes walked around the store, and then the thin old shopkeeper came over.

Said: "Sir, you want to buy something."

The man in green said: "I need two coffins, some incense and paper money."

The old shopkeeper was startled.

Most people who come to buy a birthday coffin buy one. It is rare to see someone buying two birthday coffins at the same time.

Could it be that two relatives in this man's family died at the same time.

In this line of work, naturally you can't ask too much about the funeral of the other person's family.

The old shopkeeper said: "How many inches thick and what kind of wood do you need for a birthday coffin? I will ask the clerk to deliver it to your house."

The man in green clothes said: "The material is not important. Send it to Yi Zhuang in the west of the city tonight. As for the money for the incense paper, you can just give it to me now."

As he said that, the man in green took out two gold nuggets from his arms, both of which were a full twenty taels of red gold.

The old shopkeeper immediately became energetic and said: "Sir, please wait a moment, I will wrap up the paper money you need right away. The longevity coffin will be delivered to Yi Zhuang tonight."

Nowadays, in troubled times, silver has depreciated, but gold has appreciated.

These forty taels of gold can buy the entire coffin shop, so the shopkeeper naturally doesn't dare to neglect it.

He packed up all the Zen incense and paper money in the store, and asked the man in Tsing Yi if he wanted some paper sacrifices.

But the man in green shook his head, saying that he didn't need those sacrifices.

Not long after, the man in green came out of the coffin shop carrying a large bag of things.

A subtle black shadow merged into his shadow.

The man in green said as he walked: "Have you investigated it clearly?

Is it the Five Ghost Seal?"

The black shadow said: "I lost it."

The man in green was stunned and said: "Lost it?"

The black shadow said: "Go and see for yourself."

The street was not long, and the man in green soon came to Huaihua Lane.

This is a very inconspicuous alley. Since few people walk there and the sun can't be seen in the alley, it's already the 20th day of the first lunar month, and you can still see the unmelted snow in the shadows.

The black shadow said: "There are eight small houses in this alley, five of which have been abandoned, and three are inhabited, but only a few old people live there, not the two young girls."

The man in green squinted his eyes and walked back and forth in the alley for a few circles. His spiritual consciousness was open, and all the slightest movement within a hundred feet was in his mind.

Just as the shadow said, there was no trace of the two girls here.

But I clearly saw them walking into this alley before.

Suddenly, the man in green stopped, his pupils contracted rapidly, and his pupils seemed to form two bottomless whirlpools.

If there were ghost masters present, they might be able to recognize it.

This is the supreme ghost pupil in the ghost world, as famous as the Buddha's heavenly eye.

The man in green used the ghost pupil and scanned the surroundings.

After a while, he found something wrong.

After staring for a long time, he said with a twitch of his mouth: "There are not only eight courtyards here, but nine, one of which was hidden by the master's Qimen Dunjia technique.

Awesome, really awesome! Even I was almost fooled."
