Chapter 635: River of Unmindfulness


    We shouldkeepvignt at alltimes.


    Chuyi didnt have the confidentcountenance he always had.He carefullysaid, If we cant beatthem, youllhave to listen to me and go before its toote.


    It seemedhe was afraid that I wouldpersistentlystay here to find the mermaidstears. He toldme toprevent such ascenario.


    I nodded. What should we do to this man?


    Chuyi thought, then directly threw Ryuzawa Ichiro through the window. No matter what, the Longquan Vis peoplewere stayingin the same inn. Theywouldhear thatmotion.


    Indeed, not long after the man was thrown out, the three elders appeared outside the inn. They hurriedly came and checked on Ryuzawa Ichiro. When they found that his neck was broken, they were all enraged. Theirred eyesgazedat us.


    Chuyi shrugged by the window. He even threw the others a provoking nce.


    The other three hated that they couldnt just rush in and hit us. They needed to get Ryuzawa Ichiro to the hospital now.


    After they left, Chuyi said, Theres no hospital in the Ghost Market. They have totakeRyuzawa Ichiro back to the mortal world. We need to take this time to find the mermaidstears.


    To extend our search range, we parted into two teams. Zen MasterBaimeiwouldcheckthe shops,whileChuyiwould takeme to the center of the market.


    It would be July the fifteenth ina couple of hours. Most of the buyers and sellers had arrived. The center of the ce, which was also the core of this trading conference, was packed as people were busily walking back and forth.


    It was beyond my expectation that wherever Chuyi passed by,both humans and ghosts madeway forhim. I felt like we were VIPs. Howare you doingthis?


    Because Ive registered an ordinal number,Chuyi answered calmly.Since there will be so many peopleingon July the fifteenth, theowner here has established ordinal numbers. We use the ordinal number to get priority.


    However, afterwed walkedaround the Ghost Market, we still didnt find the mermaidstears.


    Chuyi, whos theowner of the Ghost Market? Where is that person? I asked.


    There are a fewowners, notjustone. Thereare Judges from the Underworld, Monster Kings, and even Demon Kings. They wont show uppersonally, though. Normally, theyhavetheir subordinatescontrollingthe operation of the Ghost Market.


    Then, he pointed at a pce-like building behind the Ghost Market. They are right there, receiving the offerings. After the Ghost Market is over, they will return to their territories to continue their cultivation.


    I nodded. With those earth-shaking existences watching over the ce, who woulddare to cause trouble?


    While walking around the market, we saw many bizarre otherworldly items, but we couldnt find the mermaidstears.


    Ifeltdispirited. The mermaidstearswerea rare treasure. If this market didnt havethem, there was no shop on the street that did. Chuyi had the same thought.He pattedmy shoulder. If we cant find it here, we can release the news to the Circle whenwe go back. I think we willhearsomenewsabout it.


    I sighedbutdidnt want to give up now, so I asked Chuyi to find Zen MasterBaimei.Alongthe way, we saw ghosts rushing toward the vige. While they were running, they talked toone another. Theyre fighting! Hurry!Lets check it out!


    They dont want to live anymore?They dareto cause amess here!ined another ghost.


    I suddenly thought about Zen MasterBaimei. I turned to look at Chuyi.Healso had a stern face. He immediately dashed away.


    When we came near the inn, we saw many people standing at the vige entrance. Bothhumans and ghostswere crowding the area.Wethenheardthe sound ofpeople fighting.


    When we finallyarrived there, wesaw Zen MasterBaimeifighting with One-armed Dragon. Although they were equally powerful, Zen MasterBaimeiwas much older. He was slower than One-armed Dragon. I could see that hewould havethelower handsoon.


    Gritting my teeth, I wanted to help him. Chuyi pulled my armand saidcalmly,This is afight betweenthosetwo. If wejumpin,itwill be a fight between the two sides. It wont do any good toeitherside.


    I pulled myself together.I thought that ifthe brawl was loud enough, why hadntthe managere here to stop them? Didnt they say theyhada manager who took care of the security of the trade conference?


    I wanted to ask Chuyi this question. However, Zen MasterBaimeisuddenly spurted blood. He took a few steps backward andnded on his butt.


    One-armed Dragon gave him a disdainful smile and turned aroundbefore runningaway. Idontknow why, but he looked flustered when he left. He disappeared in just a blink.


    As there was nothing else to see, the onlookers leftfor themain market. Iwentand helped Zen MasterBaimeiget up. What happened, Zen Master?


    The mermaidstears. Hesgot the mermaidstears Zen MasterBaimeisaid intermittentlywhile spurting blood continuously.


    Chuyis eyes brightened when he heard the monkmention themermaidstears. He told me to stay and take care of Zen MasterBaimei. Then, he ranafter the other party.


    I looked at Zen MasterBaimei. My eyesturnedwatery. The monk had never liked to take action. And now, to help me get the mermaidstears, he hadfoughtwithsomeone.How could I repay this favor?


    Zen MasterBaimeiwiped the trickle of blood at the corner of his mouthand saidto meworriedly,Young Benefactor, Im all right. Hurry, go after Chuyi! Dont be confused. Chuyis not their equal opponent. Go help him! Hurry up!


    His voice was stern.Asthe Longquan Vis people werent here, I thoughtthatZen MasterBaimeiwouldnt be in any more danger. I directly turned around and raninChuyis direction.


    When I reachedthe viges entrance,theblurrypicturein front of me suddenlybecame clear.At the same time, the structure of the vigeandthe Ghost Market behind mebecameblurry.


    This feeling was likeentering a new areainagame. From the outside, the yer saw only one ce. But when he entered, hefoundanentirenew world.


    When I came to this ce earlier,I didn''t find itreally scaryperhaps due to the bustling Ghost Market.Butnow, it was strikingly different.


    Ifelt as if I wasona desertedbattlefieldfromancienttimes. There were a few rickety structures and copsed houses. Wisps of Yin energy arose from them.


    Alongside the roadwere a lot ofwhite skeletons.Many shadows slowly movedaround the empty area ahead of me. They all had iplete bodies and charred faces. They were all ghosts!


    While I was stunned, I heard footsteps. I thought someone had justarrived. I turned around and saw a headless body holding its head standing next to me.


    Thebody was dposing. The headinits hands looked purplish-red, and its eyes were wide open.I was so scared that I almost tripped myself. I hurriedly took a few steps backward.


    The corpse followed meand askedwith rage,Did you see my head?


    I was afraid that thing could bewitch me. I clenched my jawand triedto calm down. Then, I pretendedthat I didnt hear anything andcontinuedto moveaway. The corpse asked me a few more times. I didnt answer. In the end, the corpse left.


    After hewasgone, I sighed then rushed away. However, I had run for a long time, but Ididnt seeany living human beings. I became worried.


    Talking about speed, Chuyi couldnt be much faster than me. He had left around ten seconds before I did. As I was in this deserted, empty ce, I should be able to see him somewhere.


    Looking at the ghosts with nk or emotionless faces everywhere, I became more anxious. I thought I shouldnt move further. Iworea Yang Concealing Talismanandapproached a ghost. I asked,Where are youheadedto?


    The ghost stiffly lifted his head to look at me. He looked at me with adoubtful and cautious expression; It seemedhe didnt want to answer me. I tried to make myself sound evilerand askedhim one more time.


    This time, the ghost shiveredandansweredstiffly, The River of Unmindfulness!
