Chapter 517: Humans in captivity.

In the kitchen.

Beads of sweat the size of beans kept dripping from the chef's head.

He gritted his teeth and endured the severe pain he had never experienced before.

I was extremely terrified.

Normally, with his strength, the injury of a broken arm could be easily healed in an instant with ghost power, but he found that the ghost power could not repair his broken arm at all!

Is this the power of the morning?

Lin Chen urged, "What are you waiting for? Cut it into slices. The guests outside are waiting to eat the meat."

!!!

The chef ghost's eyes widened.

Cut off my arm and use it as food, and let me cook it myself? Is there any way to bully ghosts like this?

Even though he was afraid, he still felt a little angry, but when he saw Lin Chen's eyes, the anger instantly dissipated.

Without saying a word, he picked up the kitchen knife with one hand and started chopping with tears in his eyes.

"Divide it into enough quantities so that every ghost can have some. If the quantity is small, I can continue to provide ingredients."

"That's enough, that's enough, cut it into raw slices, that's definitely enough." The chef ghost said hurriedly.

Lin Chen nodded.

Then leave the other parts for the next batch of ghosts.

The chef ghost was very fast and in no time, he had dealt with an arm.

Seeing this, Lin Chen took out bottles of obedient water and sprinkled them evenly on each dish under the surprised gaze of the chef ghost.

"Let Leng Ying come and serve the food."

"yes."

After a while, the little ghost Leng Ying came in from outside. When he saw the appearance of the chef ghost, his face turned pale.

He did not dare to ask more questions. He followed Lin Chen's instructions and took out plates of food and placed them in front of each guest outside.

"Is this the flesh and blood of a player? Why does it feel different from what I remembered?"

"The energy is abundant, and every inch of flesh and blood has been nourished by ghost power."

"Haha, top-notch stuff! This player must be very strong."

"Humans use the power of ghosts. The ghost power is contained in their bodies and has tempered their bodies to this point. If you don't know, you might think it's ghost flesh."

"What a joke! No matter how good the ghost meat is, it will continue to dissipate after being separated from the body. The meat in front of me is completely the same. This is human flesh."

Although the pieces of raw meat looked a little strange and different from ordinary human flesh and blood.

But the ghosts still didn't think about ghost flesh.

Moreover, the reputation of Ghost Market also made them think that the proprietress would not cheat in this regard, so they subconsciously regarded the abnormality as their own lack of knowledge and grabbed the slices of meat and stuffed them into their mouths.

As soon as they entered the mouth, the faces of all the ghosts changed.

“Puff! Puff! Puff!”

"What's going on? This meat is fucking stinky!"

"Madam boss, is this meat soaked in shit?"

"Is this how business is done in the ghost market?"

All the ghosts vomited out, and a few powerful ghosts even slammed the table without any hesitation.

The corners of the proprietress' mouth twitched . This was the first time for her, a quick-witted woman, to have seen such a scene of dozens of ghosts cursing at the same time!

But soon, something strange happened again.

All the shouting ghosts suddenly rolled their eyes and fainted on the table.

He was roaring one second and sleeping soundly the next.

The entire inn suddenly became quiet.

"This is..." The proprietress was shocked again.

At the same time, Lin Chen walked out of the kitchen, looked at his masterpiece, and nodded with satisfaction.

Then he took out a pink sack and caught all the ghosts with one sweep.

"Pack up and get back to business."

Lin Chen instructed the proprietress.

The door of the inn is always closed, so the disappearance of these ghosts will not be seen directly by anyone. At most, it will arouse the suspicion of some ghosts who are already paying attention to the restaurant.

But Lin Chen didn't care about this kind of thing.

His customer base is currently mainly foreign ghosts.

The proprietress personally cleaned the table together with Leng Ying.

Not long after, more evil spirits began to come in one after another.

Seeing that there were no other ghosts in the inn, they did not notice anything unusual and just ordered their meals.

Lin Chen harvested three waves before it was over.

In the afternoon, guests who come in basically don't order food, but instead request to stay in the hotel.

Lin Chen was not too anxious about this kind of ghost. After signaling Leng Ying to take them into the guest room, he came to the proprietress and said, "Go out and contact your channels for buying and selling human flesh. Just treat it as a normal transaction and don't worry about anything else."

In fact, it is always the proprietress who purchases goods from the source in the ghost market herself.

The proprietress was startled, then she forced a smile and said, "Sir, we really don't dare to sell human flesh anymore."

"Go if you're told to."

"good."

The proprietress was sensible and agreed. She calmed herself down and walked out of the inn.

Lin Chen flashed out of thin air and disappeared from the spot. He had already put on his invisibility cloak and followed the proprietress.

outside world.

When they saw the proprietress walk out, some ghosts' eyes moved slightly.

There are even ghosts that leave and contact the powerful people behind them.

Both the expressionless proprietress and Lin Chen, who was following them invisibly, noticed the actions of these ghosts.

really.

Soon a figure stood in front of the proprietress.

He was dressed in black, exuding a profound aura, standing quietly in the middle of the street. The surrounding environment seemed to become gloomy and eerie because of his appearance.

"Hong Ji, things seem to be a little unsettled in your store lately." said the ghost in black.

"Lord Heiyuan." The proprietress saluted. The visitor was a celestial-level evil ghost.

The proprietress hesitated for only a moment before she said, "A mysterious ghost came to the inn and stayed in one room. So I opened the door of the inn last night, hoping to make some money with my brothers. But I didn't expect that the ghost's strength was beyond my expectation."

Hei Yuan nodded and said, "It should be Tongtian, do you know what kind of ghost it is and what force it comes from?"

"I'm not sure. His face looks strange. I've never seen him before."

The proprietress did not reveal Lin Chen's true situation. Due to the mental restrictions, she did not dare to betray Lin Chen. However, the matter of the inn had already spread out, and she could not pretend to be ignorant. That would cause her even greater trouble.

"Since it is a Tongtian ghost, then the deaths of those ghosts can only be attributed to their own bad luck. It is simply a joke for the Creation Ghost to hunt down the Tongtian ghost."

"Your Excellency is right. It's also my fault for being so abrupt and opening the door rashly."

“However, in this ghost market, even the Tongtian Ghost is not absolutely invincible. There are more than one or two Tongtian Ghosts who died in the ghost market.” Heiyuan said meaningfully.

The proprietress looked stern and remained silent.

"Open the door tonight and I'll go over and take a look."

"yes."

Heiyuan left, his eyes flickering slightly with greed, and the proprietress stared at Heiyuan's back for a long time, but in the end did not say anything to give him a hint.

Although Heiyuan is very powerful, he is not an ordinary ghost at all.

But in her eyes, if Heiyuan really dared to come, the ending would definitely not be good.

Because it was morning.

It is Chen who has been singing since his appearance, turning the horror world upside down.

If that kind of unimaginable talent and strength is really at the Tongtian level, then there is only one person who can truly suppress Chen now!

Those are the ghosts and gods of the ghost market.

The former master of the copy.

However, only she and the chef ghost Lengying knew all this, and she could not tell it to other ghosts.

Not only the proprietress but also Lin Chen watched Heiyuan leave.

…

The proprietress walked to the end of the street, looked around, and then came to a closed door.

This is an iron gate, somewhat dilapidated and rusty.

It looks like an abandoned store.

But Lin Chen clearly felt that there were a lot of rules power attached to it, and it had formed a kind of restraint. If it weren't for his extraordinary mental power and the ability to reverse the rules, and if it weren't for his sensitivity to the power of rules, he might not have discovered the abnormality of this door.

The proprietress knocked on the iron door rhythmically.

“Click.”

The iron door opened automatically, and there was no light inside, it was very dark.

The proprietress walked in, and Lin Chen followed closely behind.

The iron gate is closed.

The proprietress walked inside with ease.

The environment was extremely dark, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you, but this did not affect Lin Chen and the proprietress's vision at all.

Inside is a reception room, which looks a bit empty. There are no tables, chairs or benches at all, only a bar in the front.

On it were placed ten porcelain jars with skull patterns.

"Uncle Wu."

The proprietress spoke softly.

The voice fell.

Suddenly, a strange noise was heard in the silent room.

One of the porcelain jars opened out of thin air, and a black shadow that blended perfectly with the darkness emerged and slowly grew larger, forming an old man's face.

"So it's Hongji, but are you here to buy ingredients?"

The old man didn't see Lin Chen who was wearing the invisibility cloak. After looking at the proprietress, he chuckled.

"Yes, I need the flesh and blood of a three-star player." The proprietress looked very respectful.

"The trading day is almost here, and you only need one. It seems that your store's business is very ordinary."

"There is an evil guest in the store. He is very powerful and has killed many ghosts."

"Huh? That's interesting. If you can kill this evil guest, the money you earn will be much better than selling human flesh and blood. The evil guest that you can't do anything with your strength must be a ghost."

"good."

"Interesting, but this has nothing to do with me. I prefer doing business to fighting and killing."

The old man's face was full of wrinkles, and he had a chrysanthemum-like smile. His eyes were big, but there were no pupils, only two extremely tiny blue will-o'-the-wisp flames.

He walked out of the porcelain vase he was perched in and landed on the ground, only about 1.3 meters tall. He hunched over and coughed lightly, "Wait here. I'll go get the goods for you."

The old ghost left the front desk and walked towards the back door.

Seeing this, Lin Chen followed.

Soon, the two left the shabby shop through another door.

But when I saw the outside world again, the surrounding environment was a little different.

The buildings in the ghost market usually look a bit shabby, but when I saw it this time, I was actually under a group of tall buildings. It was as if I had stepped through the back door of the shop and entered another world.

These tall buildings are very close to each other, forming alleys that look like a maze.

It was not known whether the old man was being alert or had his own way of doing things, but he moved very slowly. It took him a long time to finally arrive in front of another store after turning around many corners.

There is a sign on the store that says "Inches and Steps."

The window was open and a middle-aged male ghost was waiting for something in front of the window.

In fact, this was the first ghost Lin Chen encountered after entering here.

"Boss, give me a portion of mutton, three stars will do."

The old ghost spoke in a strange tone. Even though he was very familiar with the middle-aged male ghost, he still had to maintain basic rules.

Use special codes to communicate.

The code was simple and clear, but the tone was very strange, and it actually sounded like an opera.

"Young or old?" The middle-aged male ghost's tone was also a little strange.

"Young, young and tender."

"Can."

After the communication, the middle-aged male ghost retracted his head and prepared to temporarily close the window with his hands.

Seeing this, Lin Chen immediately made his body invisible and turned into an invisible shadow, and went in through the window.

The old ghost was waiting outside in a daze.

Lin Chen followed the middle-aged male ghost and passed through a door again. The scene in front of him changed from high-rise buildings to a completely new scene.

There is no sky here, but it is indoors.

There was dim candlelight, but it was still dim. The surrounding walls and the ceiling were all made of earth, so it should be underground.

In fact, by this point, Lin Chen had already understood.

At this moment, he was no longer in the Ghost Market!

Whether it is the tall buildings before or the underground in front of us.

It’s all another space.

The powerful men of Ghost Market used their great power to open up two layers of different spaces!

No wonder the proprietress said she didn’t know where those humans were hiding.

Even if he knew, Lin Chen would not be able to get in here without going through those two doors, that is, the coordinates.

Lin Chen and the middle-aged male ghost were in a deep passage.

On both sides there are ghost guards wearing black armor, and their strength is above that of the True King.

Although the middle-aged male ghost was a powerful warrior, when he arrived here, he still took out a token and proved his identity before walking inside.

The passage was very long and very rugged. The middle-aged male ghost walked at a steady pace, turning many corners and walking for a full five minutes before reaching his final destination.

In front of the passage, there is a wide space.

Apart from some patrolling ghosts, the first thing Lin Chen noticed was the black crystals.

These black crystals are attached to the top of the head, and there are tens of thousands of them!

And inside each crystal, there is a human being sealed.

Their faces and appearance are clearly visible.

Men, women, young and old.

Lin Chen even saw newborn babies.

They were naked, with their eyes closed, like lumps of frozen raw meat.

Below, there were piles of skeletons, like a mountain of corpses and a forest of bones.

The smell of blood was extremely strong.

After walking into this spacious space, Lin Chen felt something strange under his feet. It felt as if he was not stepping on hard ground.

It was like stepping on a soft carpet.
