Return from the second dimension

"There is some truth to what you said, so why don't you tell me first, how much money can I pay?"

Tang Zhen looked at the old man and said in a faint tone.

Hearing this, the old man was overjoyed, and immediately stretched out three dry fingers, shaking them in front of Tang Zhen.

"I offer three gold coins at an absolutely fair price!"

When giving the price, the old man's mouth was a little proud, probably because he felt that his price was sincere enough.

"Hehe, you should go as far as you can, we really don't lack those gold coins!"

Before Tang Zhen spoke, Ergou suddenly took the conversation, only with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

If it were before going to the ghost town, perhaps only one gold coin would be needed to make Ergou work hard.

In this world, the purchasing power of a gold coin is very strong, and the total wealth of many families is not enough for the value of a gold coin.

The price given by the old man is very sincere. After ordinary people have three gold coins, they can live a good life for a while.

But before leaving the ghost town, Ergou made a fortune, and now he has at least ten gold coins in his pocket.

After you have money in your pocket, your horizons will naturally increase and you will not be easily tempted by a few gold coins.

At the same time, he also felt that Tang Zhen's cooking method is very valuable, and it is definitely not a good thing that can be bought with a few gold coins.

So when the old man offered the price of three gold coins, Ergou jumped out and vetoed it, lest Tang Zhen be deceived by the other party.

It's just that as soon as he uttered the words, he immediately regretted it, feeling that he should listen to Tang Zhen's opinion first, instead of making such a good opinion.

Secretly turned his head to look, but after seeing Tang Zhen also shook his head, Ergou's hanging heart immediately let go.

Fortunately, I didn't seem to have done anything wrong, but I still need to pay attention next time.

The old man's expression was a little surprised, obviously he didn't expect that he would be rejected, and he quickly asked: "Are you dissatisfied with the price? If that's the case, we can actually talk about it.

Of course, what I want to say is that the price of the three gold coins is actually very sincere. If they are replaced by others, they may not give such a high price!"

Tang Zhen looked at the old man and shook his head lightly and said, "I don't lack money, but if you can answer some questions I want to know, then I can give away the recipe for free."

After hearing Tang Zhen's words, the old man was slightly taken aback, feeling a little weird.

However, he was determined to get the formula, and naturally would not miss any chance, so he nodded and agreed.

"You ask, if it is something I know, I will tell you as much as possible!

Of course, I also hope that you will abide by the agreement and tell me the formula after I answer the questions."

"Don't worry, I will do what I say."

Tang Zhen looked at Ergou and asked him to take another wooden bowl and hold a bowl of soup for the elderly to taste.

Ergou was a little reluctant, feeling that these were not enough for the two of them, but he definitely did not dare to disobey Tang Zhen's orders.

I filled a bowl of soup with a spoon, and the two dogs handed it to the old man. After thanking him, he immediately took a sip.

He didn't worry about poisoning, after all, Tang Zhen and the two had already eaten it, and his partner was nearby, so there was no need to worry.

After eating the food in one breath, the old man admired again and again, saying that he had traveled north and south, but he had never tasted such a delicious food.

"Your Excellency, please ask questions now."

After eating Tang Zhen's food, the old man wanted the recipe more and more, and his attitude became more active.

"I want to know about monsters and strange things, such as where monsters are entrenched, where there are rumors of haunting, the more detailed the better."

The old man's face became stiff when he heard this. He really didn't expect Tang Zhen to ask such a question.

"Your Excellency, this question is really a bit..."

The old man shook his head. He had just guessed the question Tang Zhen might have raised in his heart, and at the same time he wondered how to answer it.

It's just that he never dreamed that Tang Zhen's question was so strange that he didn't know how to answer it.

But after thinking about it, the old man still spoke slowly and told Tang Zhen one thing he knew.

"About three hundred miles from here, there is a place called Duotou Ridge. It is said that there was a war here and countless soldiers were trapped in the valley.

The two sides confronted each other for more than a month, but in the end the trapped one lost, and all the prisoners were beheaded and abandoned.

Since this happened, the valley has been shrouded in gray mist, and we often hear howling in the valley, day and night.

Some people even saw headless soldiers appear, specifically robbing passers-by, and only the first level without asking for money!

Originally, I thought this was an error, but a caravan passed by there some time ago, and more than a hundred people were killed. Nothing was missing, but all the heads were missing."

When the old man said this, his face showed a trace of fear. He happened to be passing by Dutou Ridge at that time, so he witnessed the tragic scene with his own eyes.

Originally, he did not believe the rumors of Duotouling, but after seeing the headless corpses, he felt that some rumors were not necessarily false.

After another half month, the old man returned to Duotouling again, this time he encountered something that he will never forget.

When he was about to arrive at the entrance of Dutou Ridge, the old man once saw with his own eyes a large number of soldiers in battle armor appeared out of thin air in the gray fog.

They had rusty knives and guns in their hands, and most of the soldiers had nothing on their shoulders, but bare necks. They didn't know where their heads were.

There are some soldiers with heads, but they look crooked, and there are even men with women's heads.

This is obviously after cutting off someone's head and attaching it to his body, so it looks weird.

There were more than one heads on the shoulders of some officers. Some heads were completely rotten, and some looked very fresh, obviously from some unlucky ones.

The old man and the others who saw this scene were all trembling with fright, and they all closed their mouths tightly so as not to attract the monster's attention.

It wasn't until the monsters left that they dared to walk out of the hiding place, and then ran all the way out of the Dutou Ridge, even if the shoes ran away, they didn't dare to pick them up.

"If you don't believe me, you can ask a few of my teammates. They were there at the time, one by one was scared to death."

For fear that Tang Zhen would not believe him, the old man quickly added, proving that he was definitely not talking nonsense.

Tang Zhen nodded, feeling that the headless soldiers in Dutou Ridge were actually similar to the corpses in the ghost town.

They are all formed because of special power. After the cultivator of Loucheng hunts them down, he can complete the improvement of strength.

"Apart from Duotou Ridge, are there other places where similar legends circulate?"

Tang Zhen remembered Dutou Ridge, and decided to go there to take a look first. If there are a lot of monsters, it will definitely make him a fortune.

And this kind of thing can't be delayed, if it is the first to be ascended by other Loucheng monks, that is the most depressing thing.

"In the past few years, I have heard some similar rumors, but most of them are catching up on the rumors and cannot tell the truth from the false.

The only thing that can really make me sure that there is a weird place is Dutou Ridge, because that is what I have seen!"

After getting the information he wanted, Tang Zhen decided to act immediately, facing countless competitors, he had to race against time.

"The production method is like this, you'd better keep it in mind..."

Tang Zhen didn't talk nonsense, and directly told the old man the formula without any concealment.

The old man provided the information Tang Zhen wanted, and he would naturally abide by the agreement and complete the transaction between the two parties.

The old man was very surprised. He didn't expect Tang Zhen to be so happy that he quickly listened carefully and kept it in mind.

"Let's go, let's go to Duotouling now!"

Tang Zhen said to Ergou, without any hesitation, turned and walked towards the horn beast not far away.

Ergou didn't talk nonsense, put the items he took out into his pockets, and then gobbled up the remaining food.

In the old man's shocked eyes, the two stepped on the horn beast, and they disappeared into the night in a blink of an eye.
