Chapter 46 New Year Shopping

Year market.

It was getting dark.

The lights were turned on one after another, creating a great atmosphere.

Seeing that there were people selling lanterns, Ning Jiaojiao bought one and continued shopping with Ning Zheng.

“I just don’t know why every store in the night market likes to light up red lanterns?”

Ning Zheng walked and thought.

"Even the air is glowing red, making this ghost market at night very creepy."

Logically, the embers maintain the same rules as before their death.

During the New Year fairs when they were alive, the lanterns should have been colorful. Why are the lanterns after they died all red?

To serve as the atmosphere group?

Better to scare people or eat people?

But this cannot be the case.

Because they don't think they are dead, and they don't think they are ghosts.

To be honest, this is not very scientific!
Could it be that after they died they all became red and green color blind and therefore can no longer distinguish between colors?

Is that why everyone turned on the red light?

Then, they not only have cognitive defects about "death", but also cognitive defects about "color"!

Perhaps there is another possibility.

Is it their desire for blood that causes them to become sensitive to the color red?
Just like some carnivores in nature, such as sharks, they go berserk as soon as they sense blood.

While shopping, he was thinking and getting into science.

The main reason was that Ning Jiaojiao took me out for a walk from day to night, and I could only think about life to pass the time.

For a moment, Ning Zheng felt that the second body should not be the training hand, but the foot.

After all, my mortal legs are a bit tired from walking.

After walking for a day, Ning Jiaojiao bought a lot of things, big and small, and even bought a small cart, which Ning Zheng was responsible for pulling from the back.

Not much money was spent.

And Ning Zheng approved of many of the things purchased.

Ceramic pots, ceramic bowls and other items are all real objects, so we really need to purchase a large number of them.

These dead people were just bought for fun, like puppets bound by the "logic of their behavior when they were alive", but he, a living person, really wanted pots and pans.

"By the way, let's go shopping for clothes."

Ning Zheng suddenly remembered that she really had to buy a batch of the simplest clothes.

It’s the New Year after all.

We are here to go shopping anyway. As the owner of the manor, you should buy some new clothes for your employees, right?

The previous clothes were all old clothes left over from the slave blacksmith in the mountains. They are almost used up. When the blacksmith is resurrected in the future, we must prepare a new batch of clothes to wear, right?
Before, there were money boys and money lolita, regardless of gender, but now there are human beings.
There is still no distinction between men and women.

This was proposed by Xiao Ai.

Xiao Ai's assistant said at the time: "Give them a few cuts, they love this! Otherwise, it may not pass the review in their world."

Ning Zheng naturally followed the advice, and Zhujian Villa had to focus on pure love.

"Want to buy clothes? Go to Sister Erniu's place!" Ning Jiaojiao said, "They are cheap and good looking."

After walking around several streets, Ning Zheng came to a shop.

There was a woman sewing clothes at the door, with pieces of clothes hanging inside.

Hanging in the house are bright red wedding dresses, red robes for grooms, casual clothes for scholars and Confucian scholars, as well as metal headdresses of various ethnic minorities. The variety is rich and dazzling.

The ghost tailor is called Erniu, and there is actually no difference between her before and after death.

Apart from a bit of a cannibalistic hobby, all she does every day is sew clothes in a monotonous way.

With no meat to eat, she would have stuffed her bubble cavity with circles of cloth bandages.

In fact, she was a cloth doll and looked very eerie.

In fact, most of the bubble ghosts who can't open the pot and have no meat to eat do this in order to have a physical touch.

Filling the cavities with various things related to one's obsessions during one's lifetime can also turn them into a means of attack.

All we can say is that most people are poor and hungry when they are alive, and they will definitely be poor and hungry after they die.

Of course. Only a monk who has opened the three flowers and covered his eyes with spiritual energy can see her true appearance.

Entered the store.

Ning Zheng, who had no desire to shop, didn't even look at the finely tailored clothes. She pointed at the most common style and said, "Two hundred pieces of this coarse linen shirt."

Erniu was stunned. "So many? I don't have that much stock."

"It's okay. I'll pay the deposit. You can do it first and I'll come to get it when the time comes." Ning Zheng gave two magic coins as a deposit.

Nor is there any fear that the other party will default on the debt.

Following the remnants of his logic during his lifetime, he was an honest man who kept his promises during his lifetime, and he will surely be an honest cunning man who keeps his promises after his death.

Of course, except when the disease occurs.

As for these clothes, they have a dead aura and are like funeral items?

If living people use it for a long time, it may shorten their lifespan and be unhealthy?
Ning Zheng felt that the blacksmiths would not care about this.

Anyway, they all look like they would rather die a miserable death than live a long life.

It’s nice to have clothes to wear!

"Do you want cloth shoes? I have so many clothes, I can't live without cloth shoes."

Erniu took out a pair of thick cloth shoes and spoke softly, "I sewed them myself. The soles are sewn with three layers of stitches. They are very sturdy."

"No need." Ning Zheng shook her head.

"What about straw sandals?" Erniu saw that a big business had come and said, "This one is cheaper."

Ning Zheng shook her head again. Although she really wanted to make a big purchase and buy some for them as New Year gifts, it was really not necessary.

It’s not that they can’t afford straw sandals, but that blacksmiths like to walk barefoot, get close to the earth, and occasionally take a bite of it.

When she was on the mountain, Ning Zheng would occasionally see a few people squatting in the corner, twisting their bodies, sticking their butts out, and burying their heads in the soil, gnawing frantically. Their style was very tricky.

"Do you need a bamboo basket?" A deep and hoarse male voice came from next door.

Next door is the bamboo basket shop.

There are bamboo baskets, bamboo beds and bamboo mats. It is run by Erniu's husband Li Ge, a bamboo craftsman.

Under the spiritual eyes, a lifelike bamboo puppet also walked out of the door and said hello.

I said goodbye to the two of them and put the clothes on the cart at the back.

Ning Zheng was bored at the moment and was thinking about going to the bookstore to buy some books for the little blacksmiths in the mountain.

After all, they seem to like reading.

During the Chinese New Year, we also give some benefits to the people in the village, such as clothes and books, which are not valuable in themselves.

“Yes, I have to buy some.”

"Given their easy-to-please nature, if you bring them some gifts, they will probably be happy for the whole day."

He has a good impression of the bookstore.

Back then, he found a bargain in a very dangerous ghost bookstore and obtained many basic cultivation methods, which led to his start of cultivation.

Because it was a prosperous era for immortals, a lot of basic knowledge and miscellaneous talks were also quite popular among mortals. After all, scholars bought books in bookstores.

Ning Zheng had made up her mind and was ready to take Ning Jiaojiao with her, even if it was to end today's trip. Suddenly, she glanced at "Su Yu Niang" in the bustling crowd.

Ning Zheng was stunned, thinking: Why did Su Yu Niang come down from the villa? And come to the night market?
He stared closely at the rice-like hair on top of her head, which was filled with a familiar shadowy atmosphere.

The good news is that it actually worked.

The bad news is that he is dead.

However, can the shadow spirit rice grown from the dead [Ashes] still be eaten?
If it were edible, it would be a walking human-shaped spirit rice.

Lingmi, maybe it’s time to collect it all!
"Jiao Jiao, do you want some bait when we go fishing?" Ning Zheng pulled Ning Jiao forward.

"I want to! Is there any bait for sale in the market?"

Ning Jiao Jiao held a chicken cage in her left hand and a lantern in her right hand, and said, "I feel like I've hit the jackpot today."

"It's almost night time, it's not safe. That girl is obviously from out of town and has nowhere to stay. Let's trick her into going home." Ning Zheng showed a gentle smile, "Help us fish at night, and that will pay for her accommodation."

Ning Zheng suddenly realized it at this moment.

He asked what opportunities there were in the New Year's Market. Which elders and fellow villagers were so polite?

It turns out that the opportunity is you.

No wonder Ning Jiaojiao’s luck soared by more than 100 points, because the bait she had been longing for appeared.
