"Oh." Lin Zhenzhen wouldn't have said such a low-level threat when she was arguing with someone in the third grade of elementary school.
Moreover, the level of disgust in his mind remained unchanged at 90, so Yan Feichen's little commotion was nothing more than a paper tiger baring its teeth and claws, unable to harm him in the slightest.
"But I didn't even ask you for help, and you still rescued me!" Lin Zhenzhen smiled charmingly. "You're such a kind person."
Yan Feichen: ......
"Unfortunately, today's occasion is not suitable for reminiscing." Lin Zhenzhen waved her hand directly at Yan Feichen. "Then, farewell."
After saying that, she turned and left.
[Host, Yan Feichen was so angry he almost bit his teeth off. I was afraid he would bite you to death just now.]
Lin Zhenzhen remained calm: [The data is right here, what's the rush? If Yan Feichen can really hold me accountable, I'll accept it.]
What I fear most is that this aversion value is like a stabilizing force, no matter how hard I try, it just won't budge.
Lin Zhenzhen was still thinking about Yan Rui. She turned into a nearby alley and, taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, took out her communication jade pendant again.
"Yan Rui, it's me, Lin Zhen. Can you hear me?"
Lin Zhenzhen hadn't had high hopes for this call because the communication jade pendant had malfunctioned repeatedly before.
Unexpectedly, an echo came from inside this time.
"Lin Zhen, you!" Yan Rui seemed to have just run; his voice was unsteady, and he was still panting heavily.
"Didn't I tell you to wait for me where I am? Where did you go?"
Yan Rui usually has a gentle and mild demeanor no matter what happens, and it's rare to hear him speak in such an anxious tone. It seems he was really frightened by his sudden disappearance.
"There was a slight mishap... but it's all right now, and I've already entered the Ghost Market. Just come find me."
"You're already inside? But the entrance to my ghost market clearly isn't even open yet. How did you get in?"
Lin Zhenzhen paused for a moment, then said, "I met Yan Feichen. He brought me in."
Yan Rui was silent for a moment: "He didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"
It's not exactly difficult, but it's not entirely difficult either.
This is too complicated to explain, not to mention that the jade pendant has started to flash green.
Lin Zhenzhen looked up at the road sign in front of her.
"There's no time to say more. Just come find me at the restaurant in Dongsi Hutong after you come in."
Before Yan Rui could respond, the power of the communication jade tablet had been completely exhausted.
Lin Zhenzhen carefully hid it back in her pocket.
Although he went into the ghost market to find someone, it was just a lie he made up to fool Yan Feichen.
But since she had already said it, Lin Zhenzhen had to play the part completely, even if it was just to avoid his spies.
She looked around suspiciously, like a secret agent making a rendezvous, and sneaked into a nearby restaurant.
While arguing with Yan Feichen on the street, Lin Zhenzhen had already secretly observed that the currency used for transactions in the Ghost Market was a rare spirit stone.
Although its magical properties are unknown, it can serve as a circulating hard currency among the three races.
Coincidentally, one of the several spirit mines buried beneath Cangyan Mountain is rich in this type of spirit stone.
A few years ago, Mo Yin even personally selected a batch of high-quality spirit stones to make a necklace for Lin Zhenzhen.
She has never worn it, and it's still perfectly intact in her storage bracelet.
Lin Zhenzhen chose a seat on the very edge.
"Just one of your signature teas, no need for food." She was worried about getting an upset stomach.
"Alright!" The waiter flicked his towel, and it actually looked quite professional.
A short while later, he came over carrying a very rough water vat.
He scooped a spoonful of dark liquid from the water vat and poured it into the teacup in front of her.
"Sir, your signature black tea is here."
Lin Zhenzhen glanced at the water tank without making a sound, and just then she saw the white bones soaking in the water turn over, revealing a mouthful of big black teeth.
What exactly is she expecting?
How could there possibly be any proper black tea in this place?
They should just admit it's made from corpse water; this is blatant deception of consumers!
"Sir, please have a taste!"
Under the waiter's expectant and urging gaze, Lin Zhenzhen picked up her teacup and pretended to take a sniff.
"Hmm, not bad!"
The young man grinned, revealing a tongue half a meter long: "This is this year's new tea! Top-grade!"
Ah! It turns out it's been soaking in corpse water for over half a year!
Lin Zhenzhen calmly put down her teacup and said in a deliberately profound tone.
"Good tea needs to be savored slowly. It can't be rushed."
"Expert." The young man happily gave her a thumbs-up. "Then I won't bother you any longer, sir."
After he turned around, Lin Zhenzhen resumed her posture of looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, gazing melancholically out the window.
In reality, she had scratched her palms raw.
That one whiff almost killed her.
It smells so damn bad!
Lin Zhenzhen was sitting facing the main street, and from her vantage point, she could see the lively scene outside.
A trip to the ghost market was truly eye-opening.
Before this, she never imagined that under the same blue sky and on the same land, so many strange creatures could grow around her.
A commotion suddenly broke out at a nearby stall, probably because a customer and a vendor were arguing.
The customer opened his mouth wide and spit a mouthful of saliva at the fish head vendor.
The stall owner, not to be outdone, puffed out his cheeks and launched a bubble attack on him.
In an instant, colorful little bubbles enveloped the person's face.
This way of arguing, oh, oh, it's kind of cute, what's going on?
However, Lin Zhenzhen soon discovered that the bubbles seemed to be corrosive, and the person who was sprayed was rolling on the ground in pain.
What started as a minor disturbance escalated into a serious incident, drawing in more and more passersby.
Amid the chaos, a figure dressed in white caught Lin Zhenzhen's eye.
He remained aloof from the crowd, his expression indifferent, seemingly unconcerned about what was happening around him.
He had long, black hair that reached his waist, a plain-looking robe, and an ordinary, unremarkable face.
It's not that he's particularly good-looking; it's just that in this chaotic environment, he seems like an oddity.
What's even stranger is that among all the demons coming and going around the man, not one of them noticed his sudden appearance.
Why? She's not even wearing a mask, so she looks more like a human than her!
As Lin Zhenzhen was thinking this, the man suddenly raised his head and looked directly in her direction.
Although the two were far apart, Lin Zhenzhen quickly noticed that the man seemed to frown slightly the moment their eyes met.
