Chapter 265: The Exchange Rate of Huaxia Currency and Hades Currency
After a while, Qian Xiaodao noticed that the scenery on both sides was slowly receding.
Soon, the bullet train left the station.
"In other words, this Huangquan bullet train is really stable, and it doesn't feel shaking at all." Lin Yuhao said with a smile.
Qian Xiaodao asked Bai Mengqi, "Sister Mengqi, how long does it take to get to Wangxiangtai?" ”
"There are still two platforms to stop, and you can reach Wangxiangtai in about an hour."
"Two more platforms?" Lin Yuhao was surprised, "Could it be that we have other stations in Yuhang City?" ”
"Just now is the main station in Yuhang City, and the next two are sub-stations, and like the bullet train on the ground, these two platforms only stop for three minutes."
The two nodded, and stopped talking.
Soon, the two platforms passed, and at this time, Qian Xiaodao obviously felt that the train was accelerating.
"Huh? It's weird. ”
Lin Yuhao seemed to have discovered something at this time, he pointed out the window and said, "Sister Mengqi, I just saw two ghosts dragging a dozen ghosts walking, where are they going?" ”
Bai Mengqi glanced out the window and said indifferently: "That is the old Huangquan Road, and there are still some ghosts who choose to go there." ”
"No, the train has to drive for an hour, so how long will it take them to walk?"
"If it's fast, it's one day, if it's slow, it's possible to take two days, in short, you have to arrive at Wangxiangtai within three days, that's the rule."
Qian Xiaodao also knew such information for the first time, and couldn't help asking: "Since there is already a bullet train, why do you still have to walk?" Isn't that a waste of time? ”
Bai Mengqi shrugged and said, "There is no way, those ghosts have no money in their pockets, they can't buy tickets, they can only walk." ”
Scratching his head, Lin Yuhao said with some puzzlement: "This person is dead, his pockets are empty, where did he get the money?" ”
"Although the person is dead, but the family is still there, we Chinese people have corresponding customs in various places, and there are people who keep vigil after death. Generally, it is necessary to keep seven days, which is the so-called first seven, and a lot of paper money must be burned in these seven days, which is the ticket money, if there is more, even if it is the extra income of the ghost, it is considered to buy the road fare. ”
Bai Mengqi continued: "But with the progress of society, while people are chasing money and fame, they also abandon all traditional customs, and even if nothing else, some don't even have the least care for their dead relatives, let alone burn road money." ”
When it comes to small money, Qian Xiaodao is naturally the most sensitive, and he immediately asked: "That, is the ticket very expensive?" ”
Bai Mengqi said with a smile: "Actually, it's not expensive, it's only a thousand yuan a piece." ”
Qian Xiaodao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this: "Oh, that's okay." ”
Lin Yuhao didn't understand it even more: "Hey, Master, isn't it just a thousand yuan?" I remember that the amount of underworld coins is 100 million. ”
Qian Xiaodao still knew about this, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile: "I told you a few days ago that the exchange rate between the Styx and the Huaxia Coin is one to one, do you think you can buy hundreds of millions of Stygian coins for ten yuan at a roadside stall?" ”
"That'...... So where do you have to buy real Stygian coins? ”
Qian Xiaodao didn't speak, but looked at Bai Mengqi.
Bai Mengqi poured tea for the two of them, and said with a smile: "Burning things for dead relatives is not calculated according to the denomination on the paper, but the total amount of things they burned." ”
"I don't understand." Lin Yuhao tilted his head and said.
"For example, if you go to a roadside stall and buy a bunch of so-called dead coins with the denomination of 'Heaven and Earth Bank' but they are surprisingly large, a total of 100 yuan, and then you burn these dead coins in front of the tombstone or tablet of your loved one, then the deceased relative will receive a denomination of 100 yuan. In fact, no matter what is burned, the total amount of the Pluto is calculated. Even if you spend 10,000 yuan to buy a lot of waste paper, as long as you burn it all, then your relatives can also receive 10,000 yuan of dead coins. ”
"How can a loved one receive it? No one will send it to them. ”
Lin Yuhao asked a question that even Qian Xiaodao wanted to know.
"There is Heaven and Earth Bank, if this relative is still living in the city of vain, then every time he enters an account, he will receive a notice from Heaven and Earth Bank."
Bai Mengqi paused, and then said: "If he has already left the city of vain death and escaped into the six realms of reincarnation, then this money will be saved and will be collected when the soul of this relative arrives in the city of vain next time." You also know that unless a soul dies on its own, angered by the Heavens, or is devoured by demons, souls generally do not perish. Every soul will have an extra fortune every time they are reincarnated, so there are still a lot of rich people in the city, but there are also many poor people, after all, no one can change the fact that no one can change the fact that the dead grandson is not filial. ”
Qian Xiaodao nodded: "In modern society, there is a lot of competition, and the living can't eat enough, let alone the dead." ”
"Well, yes, we modern people rarely worship our ancestors. Relatives above the grandfather level. They don't even go to worship, so except for some families that have lasted for a hundred years or a thousand years, the difference between the rich and the poor is not big for most people. ”
Lin Yuhao seemed to think of something, and asked again: "That's right, Sister Mengqi." I read in a book before that there are many treacherous places on Huangquan Road, such as Santu River, Wild Dog Ridge, Jinji Ridge, etc., so if we take the train......
"It will pass, but it will not suffer again. This is also the reason why some ghosts would rather borrow usury from ghosts on the condition of working in the city in vain for a hundred years, rather than take the Huangquan Road. ”
At the same time, the prompt sound in the living room started again: "Ding Dong - travelers, the ghost door is closed in front of you, this is the first time in your life, and the last time you see the ghost door closed." ”
Bai Mengqi may have been tired of seeing the ghost gate, but Qian Xiaodao and Lin Yuhao were different, and the two hurriedly turned their heads to look out the window.
Forty or fifty meters outside the bullet train tracks, there is a winding road without any stones or potholes, only yellow dirt.
This yellow road stretches straight ahead, seemingly never-ending.
On Huangquan Road, you can always see ghosts dragging ghosts from time to time.
Qian Xiaodao suddenly found that in fact, they were walking very fast, not step by step, but flickering one after another, and every time their souls disappeared and appeared, there was a gap of dozens of meters in between.
There is an archway around the front meter, which is similar to the archway of some markets in China, pure wooden. It is also painted with mottled red paint, and there is a plaque hanging in the center of the archway, which reads - Ghost Gate.
"This is the ghost gate, it doesn't look like anything, it's very ordinary." Lin Yuhao was tasteless.
"That's the old ghost gate, built more than 2,000 years ago." Bai Mengqi said,
As soon as he heard that there was a new ghost gate, Lin Yuhao immediately asked, "Where is the new ghost gate?" ”
Bai Mengqi smiled, she sold a pass: "You will know when you turn your head." ”
