A million pieces of ghost money?
A very well-dressed ghost sitting diagonally opposite Su Luo elegantly wiped his mouth with a napkin, took a sip of red juice, and kept an eye on what was happening on Su Luo's side out of the corner of his eye.
He had only come to this train to change things up and take care of some business in carriage number two, but who knew he would witness such a scene.
While the cost of a three-star ghost item instance isn't as high as that of a five-star or six-star instance, it's still considerable. Over time, it adds up to a significant expense. He was quite curious about what abilities this seemingly young woman possessed to produce so many ghost coins.
Amidst the surprised, inquisitive, and curious gazes of the crowd, Su Luo took the receipt, which was over a meter long. After checking each item one by one, she nodded that everything was in order.
Although she has money, she's not easily fooled. She'll pay for what she eats, but if the driver tries to take advantage of her by making her pay more, that's a different story.
"That's right."
"It's 980,000."
As he spoke, Su Luo opened his rabbit wallet, searched inside, and handed the last million-yuan ghost money note to the attendant in carriage number five.
The flight attendant, clearly pleased to receive the ghost money, smiled as she gave Su Luo her change while serving her a special plate.
"Distinguished passenger, given that your spending on this train has exceeded one million, you have been promoted to VIP passenger. This is a special premium meal provided exclusively for VIPs in our fifth carriage. Please enjoy."
Only VIPs get special food? Su Luo became interested, thinking that a three-star monster dungeon wouldn't just give her a bag of sunflower seeds and peanuts to fob her off.
But when she saw the ice cream respectfully served by the attendant in carriage number five, her smile froze on her face.
"Honorable VIP passenger, this is the new 'mysterious ice cream' launched in the Mysterious City Commercial Street..." The attendant in carriage number five was still enthusiastically introducing the origin and rarity of this item, but Su Luo had completely lost interest.
Who would have thought that the goods they sold would end up back in their hands in this way?
Ye Rong and Xu Qing, standing to the side, cast surprised and envious glances at each other.
They hadn't seen this kind of thing in a long time, and with the recent abnormal weather and scorching heat, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call this ice cream a rare treat.
But... since Su Luo didn't move, they didn't dare to move either, only looking at Su Luo with a hint of anticipation.
Noticing Su Luo's expression, the attendant in carriage number five also seemed puzzled.
This ice cream is selling like hotcakes. They only release a limited quantity each day, and now you can't even buy it even if you queue up; you also need a little bit of connections.
The black market outside is rife with speculation, and even some five-star, six-star, and big shots from the Ghost King City are frantically hoarding it. The fact that their train can produce this is absolutely enviable; it's a rare item among rare items. But why does this passenger seem a little disappointed?
"You guys eat."
Su Luo raised his eyes, signaling Ye Rong and the others to finish the four ice creams, while he drank a cup of honey fruit wine and prepared to get up and go to the next carriage.
The train basically covers all the basic needs for eating, drinking, and entertainment, and Su Luo was very curious about what other activities would be available in the lower carriages.
Seeing that Su Luo was about to leave, the strange creature sitting diagonally opposite him couldn't sit still any longer. It also got up, its large forehead swaying, and called out to Su Luo.
"Wait, wait a minute."
"Madam, please wait a moment!"
Hearing a ghost calling her, Su Luo turned to look and saw a humanoid ghost covered in fat, dressed in a gentleman's suit, and wearing half a pair of glasses walking towards her while waving.
It has to be said that this monster is really too fat. Its body is covered with layers of swimming rings, and when it walks, it looks like ocean waves, which is quite comical.
However, Su Luo would not underestimate this strange creature just because of its appearance.
Although the food on the table was almost gone, Su Luo had ordered several of the dishes, which were not cheap, costing at least four or five hundred thousand ghost coins in total. The ghosts who could sit in carriage number five on this train and eat dishes costing four or five hundred thousand ghost coins were not to be trifled with.
"What's up?"
Su Luo took a half step back to maintain a safe distance from the other party, who then stopped an arm's length away from Su Luo.
The chubby, eccentric man seemed exhausted after just a few steps. He raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile, "Madam, I see that you are exceptionally talented, truly a dragon among men..."
Speak like a human being!
"Ahem, well, I'd like to travel with you in the next few carriages."
As he spoke, the fat, cunning man took out a glittering gold business card from his oversized, custom-made clothes and handed it to Su Luo. The words "Huangquan Group" on the card caught Su Luo's attention.
The Underworld?
Is it the Yellow Springs she's thinking of?
Upon seeing the business card, the polite male ghost next to Su Luo's eyes filled with respect, and he bowed deeply to the fat man.
Although the City of Ghosts is vast, and any ghost can claim to come from it, it is unclear how any ghost can possess something that resembles a human's business card.
Only those with a certain status and position in the City of Ghosts can receive such an honor. Having such a name card is also a symbol of status.
"Huangquan Group?"
"Hehe, yes, I'm not talented, I just happen to come from Huangquan, one of the Ghost King Cities."
Upon hearing this, the three people behind Su Luo widened their eyes, covered their mouths, and secretly sized up the fat man in disbelief.
The City of Demons?!
Yellow Springs!
This is truly an eye-opening experience.
I originally thought the eerie world only consisted of wandering ghosts and monsters and those deadly dungeons, but I never expected there to be a City of Ghosts!
