Strange Era: An exclusive talent every month.

Chapter 148 The Meaning of the Erhu Old Man (800 Monthly Ticket Plus Change)

When this familiar and ethereal voice echoed to the alley of Xining again, Chen Ye's pupils shrank slightly, and he suddenly realized something.

The old lady selling chestnuts...appeared again?
The alley is backed by the alleys of Xining, as long as you reach the end and climb over the low yellow mud wall, you can go back there.

boom!
In the next second, Chen Ye's face split open instantly, his mouthparts turned into a devourer's form, he propped himself on the ground, walked quickly like an octopus, climbed over the low wall in an instant, and returned to the maze-like alleys of Xining .

He is almost in a running posture, while identifying the direction of the source of the sound, while chasing.

"Sell chestnuts, fresh chestnuts fried in sugar, no money if they don't taste good..."

The fluttering sound kept moving towards the north gate, gradually getting closer.

Under the crimson moonlight, a figure pulling a cart quietly appeared in the red mist.

"Grandma."

Chen Ye shouted loudly and stopped the other party.

"Hehe, young man, I haven't seen you for a few days, your cooking skills seem to be even better."

The old lady selling chestnuts turned around slowly, her face was wrinkled with a smile.

How many days... Chen Ye had mixed feelings for a moment. For some reason, if counted by the number of days, the difference is indeed not long, but it seems inexplicable that it has been a long time since we met.

"Grandma, haven't you already left, why did you come back suddenly?"

Chen Ye asked curiously.

"Hey, you don't know. Although the environment on the East Street is safe, the prices are really too high!"

"Almost ten times as much as here!"

"Of course, there are no messy things there, and the food is safe enough."

"But it's not just food, clothing, and things that are used are not so expensive over there!"

"Fortunately, the business over there is not bad, and I can barely make ends meet, but because there are so many customers, the old spatula has been used for too long, and I can't bear it. I accidentally snapped it off..."

"To save some money, come back here and buy something."

The old lady selling chestnuts fumbled with both hands, and took out a newly bought spatula from the trolley. She smiled so much that her teeth were missing:
"It's better to buy things from the old place. They are easy to use, cheap, and economical..."

Chen Ye looked at the spatula, and his heart moved slightly.

From this point of view, Yongan Market should still be able to open normally.

However, in order to keep an eye out, Chen Ye asked one more question:
"Grandma, are there still paving businesses in Yong'an Market?"

The old lady selling chestnuts nodded and said, "Of course there is. The more critical the time is, the more we must hurry up to make money, so that we can have money to support our livelihood!"

"However, compared with before, there are fewer and fewer pavements in this place..."

"I don't know when there will be no business to do."

Chen Ye's mind moved slightly, and he noticed from this sentence that the Yong'an market was not completely unchanged.

Fortunately, I came early enough...

Although the dice rolled out the spiritual number "2", it doesn't mean that nothing good happened at all.

If you didn't choose to act tonight because your luck was not particularly good because you rolled out "2", you might miss the encounter with the old lady selling chestnuts.

After all, according to what the other party said, it seems that the business on Dongjie is very good.

I came back recently, just to buy a spatula for a little bit of cheapness.

of course……

Whether there are other plans, only the old lady who sells chestnuts will know.

"If you don't come here today, you may miss this opportunity!"

Chen Ye took a deep breath. He realized that the dice were just a reference, and he didn't need to care about the result.

Focus more on your own plan, but you can gain more.

When this idea flashed in Chen Ye's mind, for some reason, he felt that his understanding of the characteristics of fate gave him a sense of digestion again.

It seems that in the dark, one's own energy aura will also be affected by "digestion".

But this kind of influence brings a more transparent feeling, not negative, but tends to be more beneficial.

"Grandma, do you know something about my master?"

Chen Ye's gaze became a little deeper, and finally he asked what he wanted to ask the most.

Since the old lady selling chestnuts and the old erhu have known each other for a long time, they may know more information.

And the old man Erhu has gone to another world now, how to meet each other, and how the other party exists, everything is unknown.

"He is a great being."

The old lady selling chestnuts smiled authentically.

"A great existence?"

"Yeah, isn't it great to be able to perform art that reaches directly to the soul?"

"It makes sense..."

For a moment, Chen Ye found himself speechless to refute. From the perspective of the other party, this was indeed the case.

The old lady selling chestnuts looked up at the crimson full moon in the sky, and said with emotion:
"But your master means a great benefactor to me, and his gift is a kind of salvation, a kind of liberation, and a kind of new life to me..."

Redemption... Liberation... Rebirth...

Chen Ye repeatedly chewed on the three words spoken by the chestnut-selling grandmother, trying to figure out their meanings.

"Young man, it's getting late, you should still have something to do."

The dark clouds in the sky suddenly surged in, covering half of the moonlight, and the crimson color dimmed, reflecting on the old lady's body, making her figure look unreal as if she was about to disappear at any time.

Chen Ye's mind was moved, and he realized that the old lady selling chestnuts was about to leave, so he asked quickly:
"Grandma, if I want to find you in the future, where should I go?"

The old lady selling chestnuts said with a kind smile:
"You can go to East Street. The business there is good. If there are no accidents, I will stay there for a long time in the future."

"East Street?" Chen Ye felt a little puzzled, "What kind of place is this?"

There is a West Street in the pedestrian street next to Xijiang Park.

Located in the prosperous area to the west of Linjiang City.

However, what kind of place is East Street, it seems that I have never heard of it?

The old lady selling chestnuts said with a smile:
"In the eastern ancient town further north, there is a place called [Fengdu]."

"Hidden among the mountains, an ancient city hidden underground is built."

"That place is quite hidden, it's not easy to find. And it's built in the middle of the mountains. If you walk from here, you won't be able to reach it in a day, and it's very dangerous at night."

"Young man, if you want to go there, you have to save money and buy a car, it's more convenient to travel!"

"It's best to buy a car with automatic navigation, so you don't have to worry about going anywhere. Hehe, young people have potential. Now all new technologies have been developed."

The old lady selling chestnuts gave a few words of advice, and her figure gradually disappeared into the thick fog, leaving only hallucination-like voices floating around.

"Fengdu?"

Chen Ye frowned slightly, and relevant information gradually emerged in his memory.

Linjiang City, as a huge city, besides the main urban area, is also surrounded by vast mountains and rivers, with rugged roads and a vast territory.

The urban area is only a small part of the area.

In this city with a total area of ​​[-] square kilometers, in addition to the main city, there are also distant suburban mountains. As a famous scenic spot, there is such an ancient city of Fengdu, which contains myths that have been passed down from ancient times to the present, and is mysterious and extraordinary.

Before the bloody countdown, when holidays come, many tourists from all over the world go to the ancient city of Fengdu.

As a ten-thousand-year-old house, Chen Ye certainly never traveled that far.

But he knew that to reach Fengdu, it would take at least several hours by car.

It's not that far away!

According to the old lady selling chestnuts, if you want to get there, you'd better have a car.

This car... can't possibly be a trolley, right?
It also comes with an automatic navigation.

Chen Ye recalled carefully, and suddenly found that since the bloody countdown came, it seemed that there were basically no vehicles on the road.

The only place where I saw a car...

It turned out to be the night of night, when the little boy disappeared across the traffic lights, a black car happened to pass by!

"Could it be that... the old lady selling chestnuts told me to buy that kind of car?"

Chen Ye suddenly remembered this detail, as if he had solved a puzzle.

It's just that this thing doesn't seem to be a simple thing in the strange era.

If not... you should be able to see a lot of cars on the main road, right?

"I don't know if there are any in Yong'an Market..."

Chen Ye muttered something in his heart, turned on the bloody phone and looked at the time, and suddenly realized that it was already midnight before he knew it.
Time seemed to pass faster than expected.

You must hurry up and go to the Silver Coin Market to ask about the artist before the Yongan Market opens.

Chen Ye quickened his pace.

Soon, he passed through the north gate and came to the entrance of Yong'an Market again.

At a glance, there is still a deep place, and in the hazy black mist, some moving silhouettes can be seen.

however……

After unlocking the spiritual power of [Spirit World], Chen Ye could clearly perceive that the Yong'an Market seemed less mysterious.

It seems that through this channel, I can further reveal the true face shrouded in Yongan market rules.

With a thought in his mind, he suddenly remembered something, and began to focus on the purple air in the halo, summoning Yu Xian in the gray fog.

Soon, Yu Xian's figure emerged from the gray mist, yawned and said:
"So late...so sleepy...so sleepy..."

"Sleep on your head, work!" Chen Ye knocked the guy on the head, "Go in and see if you can see what's inside?"

"Ow..."

Yu Xian grimaced, but could only follow Chen Ye's will, turned into a gray mist, and escaped into the gate of Yong'an Market.

It didn't take long.

His figure fluttered out from inside, returned to Chen Ye, nodded and said:
"sure!"

Chen Ye's heart moved: "What's it like there?"

Yu Xian scratched her head, seemed to find it difficult to express this answer, he hesitated and said:
"Well... nothing different, it seems to be a normal world."

"Normal world?"

Chen Ye frowned slightly. Judging from his experience of entering Yong'an Market, it doesn't seem normal, does it?

Suddenly, he realized something and asked:

"Can you simultaneously transform what you see into a picture and reflect it into my mind?"

Yu Xian was stunned for a moment, bowed his head in thought for a moment, then nodded:
"I didn't seem to have this ability at first, but after eating your food, it seems that I have unlocked related abilities, and I can project the pictures I see to you through the way of spiritual energy."

There was a burst of joy in Chen Ye's eyes.

The rules of Wing On Market are just that you can't look directly at everything there...

But if Yu Xian's vision is reflected in his own mind through a third party as a channel, then it's not considered direct viewing, right?

Moreover, Yuxian, as an existence in the spirit world, seems to have no problem looking directly at that place.

The rules here seem to be unable to restrict the existence of the spirit world!
With this ability...

Then, if you enter Yongan Market again, you will be able to get the surrounding vision information!
