Chapter 843 The Female Ghost’s Deal

Since we were just fooled by the illusion before, we did not leave the ghost market.

But after this unpleasant episode with Lao Dao, Li Mazi and I no longer had the intention to wander around, so we were ready to go back to Alimu's home.

However, while looking for the exit, I inadvertently discovered a strange product at a small stall: Pisces Jade Pendant.

This jade pendant is also made of white marble, and the patterns carved on it are similar to the jade pendant hanging on Li Mazi's body.

"Brother, what are you looking at?"

Seeing that I had stopped moving, Li Mazi urged me, but then his mouth opened wide.

"This... how come this is exactly the same as my jade pendant? Isn't the one you gave me a fake?"

"Impossible, your piece is definitely authentic from the Han Dynasty, and I guess this one is a fake."

I said firmly, but because of my love for antiques, I still wanted to personally identify this similar jade pendant.

So I took the jade pendant in my hand and studied it carefully.

The jade quality of this jade pendant is good, and it should be the top grade white jade. The jade body is round in shape, with two carved fishes on both sides.

The Pisces is lifelike, even the scales on it are very delicate, and the bottom of the fish body has thunder cloud patterns.

After looking at it for a long time, I suddenly realized that this jade pendant is also real!

"Brother, are you sure?"

Li Mazi saw my expression as if I had seen a ghost, and immediately understood what was going on.

I nodded affirmatively, not to mention that he didn't believe it, even I had never seen two jade pendants that were so similar. Even the same craftsman couldn't carve two jade pendants exactly the same, right? What's happening here?

"Did you fall in love with this piece of jade?"

Suddenly, there was an eerie sound in my ears, and as soon as I looked up, I came face to face with a green and beautiful face.

I shivered with fright, but then I calmed down.

At a glance, the lanterns on the stalls were emitting green light. Since they were actually ghosts, they were not so scary.

Generally speaking, ghosts that can transform into beautiful women are not the most powerful, but since she can have a place in the ghost market, I guess this female ghost is quite good at it.

Along the way, Li Mazi and I saw countless ghosts wearing costumes from various dynasties in the ghost market. It felt like we were watching a cosplay.

The female ghost in front of her was wearing a plain white Hanfu. She looked very handsome, but her face was too gloomy.

"Yes, I fell in love with this jade pendant." I said.

After dealing with Yin spirits for so long, I have learned one thing: they don’t like to listen to nonsense, so they need to be concise in their speech.

"Then do you know the rules of the ghost market?" the female ghost asked.

Seeing the confusion on Mazi Li and I's faces, she continued: "The ghost market has always been about exchanging things for things."

"Oh, I know!"

I suddenly realized that when Yin spirits sell items, they do exchange things for things, and most of them are virtual. The most common one is that Yin spirits exchange blessings for humans, and humans can get the spiritual power of Yin spirits, etc...

Moreover, items in the ghost market are not clearly marked with prices. If you want something, you must first know what the other party wants in exchange for it.

"Excuse me, what do you want us to exchange for?" I asked with interest.

The female ghost didn't speak at first, but after a while she quietly replied: "You guys can help me find an ancient tomb. As long as I find the tomb, the jade will be yours."

When I went, it turned out that I was looking for a tomb. It was really not worthwhile to risk it for a piece of jade, but when I thought that this jade could be used as an amulet for Fanfan, I became motivated.

After all, this white marble is a piece of spiritual jade. Spiritual jade can be encountered but cannot be sought. Since I encountered it, I had to work hard.

"What tomb are you looking for?" I asked.

Seeing that I agreed, the female ghost grinned with a not-too-ugly smile: "Help me find a tomb from the Han Dynasty in Lop Nur."

The ancient tomb of the Han Dynasty in Lop Nur, isn't that the place where Li Mazi and I are going to fight? It seems that this female ghost knows something inside, otherwise there would be no reason for us to find the location of the tomb.

"Why are you looking for a Han tomb?"

Li Mazi asked, but the female ghost didn't answer him, just snorted coldly.

Li Mazi still didn't get enough beatings. Last time, he drove Yin Ling into evil because of his bad words. This time, he still didn't regret it.

The female ghost was now covered with yin energy, and Li Mazi and I were already trembling with cold even after standing there for a while.

"Cold?"

The female ghost saw our embarrassment and didn't know what she had done. She just waved her hand gently and we both stopped feeling cold.

This female ghost is amazing. She can instantly put away the cold air from her body. She is definitely not an unknown person.

Thinking of its cold snort just now, I felt scared. If Li Mazi made it angry, we might all have to walk around without food!

"If you agree to come down, I will wait for you here. If you sneak away, the consequences..."

After saying that, a strong and sinister aura surged around it.

Damn it, this female ghost is obviously trying to intimidate me, but I came here for the ancient tomb, so I’m not afraid of it.

"Keep the jade pendant. I will come to you when I find clues!"

I said seriously, threw the jade pendant into the female ghost's hand, and walked away with Li Mazi in a high-spirited manner.

"Brother Zhang, why don't you ask clearly?"

"Are you stupid! Don't you feel that the Yin spirit is very sensitive to this issue? Why are you asking? I'm not afraid that it will crush you to death!" I cursed.

After hearing this, Li Mazi shrank his neck and asked weakly: "What should we do?"

"What else can we do? Look for the tomb, I don't believe we can't find it."

I rolled my eyes at him speechlessly, sneered and said, "Just wait here. I'm going back to study the map."

After saying that, I walked forward on my own. Seeing this, Li Mazi swung his short legs and chased after me, muttering: "Don't leave me alone..."

I stopped teasing him and started thinking seriously.

The trip to Lop Nur is full of secrets, and if you don't pay attention, you will be in danger.

By the time Li Mazi and I returned to Alimu's house, it was already late at night, and the room was dark. Everyone was obviously asleep.

Fortunately, I wisely left the window open before I left, otherwise we would have had to blow outside tonight.

I tiptoed along the window and climbed in, but Li Mazi was stuck on the window. He whispered: "Brother Zhang, please pull me up."

I grabbed Li Mazi without temper, thinking that this thing is too heavy now!

Unexpectedly, Li Mazi lost his grip and fell directly from the window. He pressed firmly on me and made a muffled thud on the ground.

His grandma’s almost crushed me to death.

"Mazi, get off of me quickly!"

I felt like my internal organs were about to be squeezed out by Li Mazi, and I didn't care whether it would wake up the Alimu family, so I just yelled.

"Hehe, I'll go down right now." Li Mazi said angrily.

The moment he climbed off me, I realized how Sun Wukong felt when he was rescued from the Wuzhi Mountain by Tang Monk.

"Li Mazi, it's time for you to lose weight."

I gritted my teeth and said, "But if Li Mazi and I made such a big noise, why didn't the Alimu family react at all? Could it be that they all slept to death?"

It shouldn't be. Alimu is at least in his fifties, which makes him an old man. Logically speaking, he shouldn't sleep like this.

Just when I thought of this, I suddenly noticed a fishy stench in the air, which seemed to be mixed with other smells.

"Brother, what are you doing, why don't you go back to sleep?"

After Li Mazi finished speaking, he carelessly turned on the lights in the room, and then screamed: "Oh my God!"

I felt something was wrong when I heard the voice, so I hurried over and suddenly found a mutilated man lying on the bed. His hands were stretched forward as if he wanted to escape from the room.

I suppressed the fear in my heart, walked over and took a closer look, and was horrified to find that this was Damo, Alimu's son.

How could he die here? And the body is still mutilated? What happened in this room?
