Chapter 47: Chapter 47: Shopping with the Ghost Elder Sister!
Translator: 549690339
“Ghost Market is similar to the markets in the human world, with many ghosts attending on the first and fifteenth of every month.”
Yang Yin added, “In addition to ghosts, many eccentrics from the martial world also enter the Ghost Market to search for treasures. As far as I know, there are nine Ghost Markets in Da Xia, and the one in Xi Xia covers most of the northwest region. On the days when the market opens, it’s a veritable sea of ghosts and very lively!”
Xu Yang’s eyes sparkled upon hearing this!
A sea of ghosts?
What if he entered and scared a bunch of ghosts? How much merit could he gain?
However, he quickly dismissed the idea.
That’s because Yang Yin said that a Ghost King ruled the Ghost Market.
There were also various ghostly generals, any of whom were at the peak level of a red-clothed fierce ghost. In addition to that, there was the mysterious and unfathomable master of the Ghost Market, said to possess immense divine power and able to travel between the Underworld Palace and the Ghost Market.
“Ghost generals at the peak of red-clothed fierce ghosts, Ghost Kings, and even the Ghost Market master who surpasses the Ghost King… I indeed have no way to deal with such beings right now.”
Xu Yang thought to himself, “But the Ghost Market is definitely a good place for me to grind merit and level up my skills in the future when my cultivation becomes stronger.”
At the side, Liu Shishi suddenly said, “The cultivation method for the Extremely Yin Body is rarely seen in the human world, but it might be found in the Ghost Market.”
“Oh?”
“Can I go to the Ghost Market?”
“If I go, what are the chances I’ll come back alive?”
Xu Yang considered this idea.
He had to find the cultivation method for the Extremely Yin Body; it was inevitable. Otherwise, Ma Long’s life would be at stake one day.
But he couldn’t just rush to the Ghost Market. What if he died before finding the Extremely Yin Body’s cultivation method?
“Living people can enter the Ghost Market, but you need a special method to get in. As long as you cover your vitality and don’t reveal yourself, the Yin spirits and ghosts won’t attack you,” Yang Yin, who was knowledgeable about the rules of the Ghost Market, explained. “Furthermore, the Ghost Market has its own rules, and ordinary ghosts and goblins don’t dare to make trouble.”
“In that case, it might be worth a try.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Yang relaxed and asked, “How can a living person enter the Ghost Market?”
The two female ghosts shook their heads in unison.
This was understandable.
As ghosts, they had their own ways of entering the Ghost Market. Why would they need to understand how the living could do so?
Liu Shishi suggested that Xu Yang should find local “eccentrics” from the martial world, as they might know how to enter the Ghost Market.
“That’s a good idea…”
“Furthermore, there’s the Supernatural Affairs Bureau. 1 don’t know whether they know how to enter the Ghost Market or not… Besides, since the Ghost Market is a place where humans and ghosts mix, it would be best to find a few ghosts and earn some merit points to enhance my own strength before entering the Ghost Market.”
Xu Yang pondered this idea.
It’s a pity.
He hadn’t kept the contact information of the two Supernatural Affairs Bureau members.
Since there was no business in the shop, Xu Yang suggested making a set of new clothes for Yang Yin and Liu Shishi.
Upon hearing this, Liu Shishi said, “It’s perfect timing. Please make me a pair of trousers. I don’t have any, and my legs always feel cold.”
But Xu Yang wouldn’t agree.
Wouldn’t that ruin the black silk I cut?
He skillfully made a new set of clothes for Yang Yin in the same style as Liu Shishi’s. Compared to Liu Shishi, Yang Yin, who had studied abroad during the Republic of Da Xia period, was much more open-minded. She eagerly went upstairs to change into the new clothes.
“Master Xu, Shishi, do I look pretty?”
She twirled in front of Xu Yang and Liu Shishi.
Gazing at the pair of beautiful black silk-clad legs, Xu Yang’s eyes shone, praising, “Beautiful… truly beautiful!”
Unlike Liu Shishi’s delicate and demure demeanor, Yang Yin had short hair, a round goose face, and bright, round, black eyes. She exuded an energetic vibe.
Liu Shishi also praised her and then said, “Now it’s time for you to make my trousers, right?”
“Yes, yes, I’ll make them right now!”
But he’d never make such trousers, ever.
However, their current clothing and accessories, combined with a pair of super short denim shorts, were quite perfect. When the time came to roll up the edges of the T-shirts to expose their belly buttons, it would be even more sexy.
Xu Yang said he would, and took up the yellow paper to cut out the shorts.
In no time, two pairs of super short denim shorts were made.
Ignite it.
Burn them.
Yang Yin excitedly went to try them on after receiving the shorts.
Liu Shishi looked at them with disdain: “These are so short, how can I wear them?”
After seeing that Yang Yin looked quite good in them, she reluctantly put on the super short denim skirt.
Both female ghosts wore similar outfits, were similar in height, and had similar figures. At a glance, they seemed to resemble twin sisters, but upon closer inspection, each had their own charm and different temperament.
One had an air of grace and elegance, embodying the unique dignity of women from the Republic of Da Xia period, pure and ethereal, gentle and delicate like jade.
The other had a classical beauty.
Xu Yang feasted his eyes, then said, “There isn’t much business in the shop anyway, how about we go out for a walk?”
“Go shopping?”
Upon hearing the words “go shopping,” Yang Yin immediately perked up, but soon she grew worried and said, “1 haven’t reached the level of a true Red Ghost yet. My Yin Body isn’t condensed enough, and the sun hasn’t set yet. Human gatherings have strong Yang energy, and I wouldn’t be comfortable going out there.”
“Don’t worry, with me here, you don’t have to be concerned.”
Liu Shishi waved her hand, and a streak of Yin energy shot out.
The two women materialized, accompanying Xu Yang as they all left the funeral shop together.
Yumin Street was not far from Wu City Square. It took less than a io-minute walk for one person and two ghosts to reach the square. They saw a dense crowd, with children playing on rollerblades.
There were also old men and women dancing in the square.
On the open space, there were many children’s toys, like bumper cars, balloons, sandpits, children’s fishing, and coloring statues.
There was even a couple nestled together on a long bench, completely absorbed in their own world, kissing one another.
“Hmph!”
Liu Shishi passed by the bench and scolded upon seeing this scene, in a cold tone, “In broad daylight and in full view of others, the world’s morals have degenerated… Shameless!”
H ii
The couple raised their heads, looking outraged and embarrassed.
Yang Yin casually pointed a finger, and a wisp of Yin energy flew out. The couple immediately became dazed, and she embraced Liu Shishi’s arm, saying, “Shishi, why bother getting angry with these shameless people? Let’s go. That thing up ahead looks interesting!”
Xu Yang explained, “This is coloring plaster statues. There are various anime characters like Sailor Moon… Large ones cost 20 dollars each, and small ones cost 15 dollars. After coloring, you can take the statues home.”
The two women excitedly chose their plaster statues.
Ah, Shishi, why did you pick a pig?”
“This is Peppa Pig, I saw it in a cartoon…”
Both female ghosts were very curious about everything in the modern world.
After they finished their coloring, they went to play with balloons, hula hoops, and scratch cards…
Soon after, the sun set, and night fell.
Xu Yang originally planned to take them to the night market, but at that moment, Officer Wang called.
“Officer Wang… Did you get it done?”
“I’m at the square now. Pick me up and let’s go to Old Ma’s house together!”
After hanging up, Xu Yang said to the two female ghosts, “Shishi, Yang Yin… You two continue shopping by yourselves. I need to go and see a soul off. I’ll be back soon… Oh, I’ll give you some money.”
Since he had a store,
Xu Yang usually carried cash with him.
He took out 1000 dollars.
Liu Shishi: “I don’t need your money. I have my own. Yang Yin, let’s go…. Sister will treat you to a feast!”
