Zhang Meng didn't say anything. She first glanced at Gu Mingtai. Seeing him nod to her, Zhang Meng handed the two pills in her hand to him.
As soon as the pockmarked man took the pills, he immediately guarded them tightly as if they were treasures. Then he stood up, bumped into several onlookers, and ran out.
After taking a look at the fleeing figure, Zhang Meng immediately lowered her head and picked up the herbs on the ground. She walked over to Gu Mingtai with excitement and waved the herbs towards him. "Gu Mingtai, we bought the herbs without spending any money. It's worth it."
"You spendthrift woman! These two pills are priceless, yet you exchanged them for these herbs. You still think you've gotten a good deal. You're so stupid, so stupid." Aye Ghost King stood aside, shaking his head in regret.
Looking at the happy little woman in front of him, Gu Mingtai narrowed his eyes, and the pair of dark, shiny eyes outside the mask showed a doting smile, "As long as you are happy, do you want to see more?"
After Zhang Meng put these herbs into the backpack, he shook his head lightly, "I won't look at it anymore. We just made a big splash here. We can't stay here any longer. Let's go back."
Gu Mingtai patted her head and said, "If you want to stay here, that's fine. I can deal with these ghosts."
Zhang Meng opened her mouth, but finally shook her head, "No, these few precious herbs are enough for me to refine."
Gu Mingtai put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
The young couple was about to leave the ghost market when suddenly a little ghost ran out from behind them and blocked their way.
"You two, our Lord Di Zhi wants to ask you to meet him." The little ghost said politely.
Gu Mingtai immediately pulled Zhang Meng behind him, his face icy cold, his eyes like knives glaring at the kid as he said, "Go back and tell your Lord Di Zhi that we are busy."
Without waiting for the little ghost's reaction, Gu Mingtai took Zhang Meng's hand again, walked past it and continued towards the exit of the ghost market.
The little ghost who stayed behind watched the couple leave, and fluttered around anxiously. "What should I do? Lord Di Zhi has repeatedly told me to invite them over. If I don't, Di Zhi will definitely skin me alive."
At this moment, the little ghost suddenly felt as if his whole body was cold to the bone, especially the breath pressing on him, which made him feel extremely uncomfortable all over.
"Let me think of a solution for you. If you don't want to die, you'd better go find your Lord Di Zhi now and ask him to come out and invite those two. Otherwise, the couple will have to leave this ghost market."
When the little ghost looked up, he realized why he had felt so uncomfortable just now.
The pale ghost's lips trembled, "Ghost King, Lord Ghost King, you are Lord Ghost King."
When the Ghost King Aye saw how scared he was, a disdainful smile flashed across his lips, "What are you afraid of? I won't eat you. Remember the advice I just gave you. Go quickly!" As soon as he finished speaking, the Ghost King Aye immediately floated towards Zhang Meng and Gu Mingtai.
"You two wait for me." Just as they were about to walk out of the ghost market gate, the young couple heard the weak shouts of Ghost King Ai behind them.
Zhang Meng stopped immediately, turned around and saw that Aye Ghost King was floating towards him with a pale face.
Zhang Meng was shocked. Usually, Aye Ghost King was always full of energy in front of her, but not like now, he looked like he was about to die at any time.
"What happened to you? Who made you like this?" Zhang Meng immediately walked up to him and asked.
The pale-faced Aye Ghost King spoke weakly, "I don't know what happened to me. I suddenly became like this. Zhang Meng, do you think my soul will be scattered?"
Zhang Meng immediately glared at it, "What nonsense are you talking about? You won't be scared to death. I'm here, I won't let that happen to you."
Although she usually disliked it, that was just because. In her heart, she still regarded the Aye Ghost King, who had once saved her life, as one of her own.
Looking at the painful expression on its face, Zhang Meng turned around and didn't have time to see the guilt that flashed across Aye Ghost King's eyes.
She immediately turned to Gu Mingtai who was standing behind her and asked for help, "Gu Dantai, please come and see the Aye Ghost King. I don't know what's wrong with it. Please come and save it."
Gu Mingtai walked forward and scanned Aye Ghost King with his shrewd eyes. When their eyes met, Aye Ghost King, who felt guilty about doing something wrong, immediately turned his head away.
Gu Mingtai sneered, "Where do you feel uncomfortable? I'll treat you, or I can ask Xiao Meng to give you some talismans to help you cure your illness, how about that?"
The Ghost King Aye was so scared that he broke out in sweat, and immediately turned back to his usual heroic and high-spirited appearance, "No need, I'm fine, I'm doing very well now." Then he flipped over and floated several times in front of Zhang Meng.
Zhang Meng was stunned and pointed at it with a confused look on her face, "This, this, how did it heal so quickly!"
The Aye Ghost King smiled awkwardly and secretly glanced at Gu Mingtai. Gu Mingtai sneered, "It's not uncomfortable at all, it's fake, it's a lie."
Zhang Meng's face immediately darkened when he heard this. He raised his hand and attacked Aye Ghost King, "You evil ghost, you dare to lie to me, you dare to lie to me."
The Ghost King Aye floated left and right, dodging back and forth. "Zhang Meng, listen to my explanation. I have no choice but to do this."
"What are your reasons?"
"I..." Just as Aye Ghost King said this word, suddenly a pleasant voice came from behind them.
"Excuse me, three of you."
Behind them stood a man who looked to be around twenty years old. He had short hair and was wearing a white shirt. He had slanted, sharp eyebrows, deep, bright eyes, and a sharp outline. He exuded a domineering and powerful aura that looked down on the world.
Gu Mingtai was about to open his mouth when the little woman next to him suddenly held his hand.
He swallowed the words back into his stomach.
"Is there something wrong?" After Zhang Meng comforted her man, she immediately looked at him with a faint expression and asked.
"It was you who sold the Spirit Gathering Pill in the ghost market just now!" Di Zhi's mouth corners rose slightly, and the smile on his face was like the rising sun in early spring, warm and pleasant.
But Zhang Meng knew that the more such a man was, the more she had to be on guard against him.
"What do you want? If you want the Soul Gathering Pill, I'm sorry, I only have those two pills. I've already exchanged them for other herbs, so I don't have any more."
Di Zhi smiled and said, "There is no magic pill! Haha, it's okay, as long as this comrade can refine it."
Zhang Meng's expression changed, and he subconsciously took a step back, smiling awkwardly, "Who told you I could make an elixir? Did you get fooled by that person? I don't know how to make any elixirs. You must be mistaken."
The good-looking man pulled the corner of his mouth, clearly sneering, but because he was so handsome, the smile on his face made people feel as if they were bathed in a spring breeze.
