Chapter 61: Meritorious Money (2/3)
The gray space gradually has a sense of solidity.
Ye Tianming fell from the air to the "ground", slowly stepped on it, slightly tested the solidity, confirmed that it was enough to carry behind him, and then walked towards the city gate step by step.
The city gate is dilapidated, ten meters high, eight meters wide, the wall bricks are decayed, the city wall is full of big pits, and even some places have collapsed several meters down, even the original majestic and grand city gate tower has been tilted to the side, and the only relatively new one is the black plaque on the city gate, which seems to have been depicted for a long time.
The mottled city gate was only opened at this moment, and the other was crushed by the crooked towers, and turned into a gatepost, which was estimated to be difficult to open.
However, in this way, it is convenient to manage the entry and exit personnel.
On both sides of the half gate, there were two uniformed ghost guards on each side, and on the left side near the city wall, there was a long large table, only three of the four legs remained, and only a third of the other was left.
After the table was broken, there sat an old ghost in red, with a pipe in his mouth and a bald pen in his hand, and registered a few times every ghost entered the city, and at the same time, the two assistants at the table deposited the collected entry fee into a black wooden box.
"Do you have a token?" asked a white-clothed assistant to a bald old man.
"When you first arrive, you don't have anything. The bald old man touched the big bald head, neither humble nor arrogant, and his demeanor was natural, obviously accustomed to such scenes.
"Do you have a recommendation?" asked another black-clad assistant, mechanically.
"I came with fate, and I never had a recommendation. ”
"There is no token, no recommendation, leave a merit, report your name and rank, and you can enter. There shall be no fighting, no stealing, no robbery in the city, and you must leave before dawn, otherwise you will bear the consequences. The old ghost in red, taking a puff of cigarette and casually talking about the rules with his eyes closed, these words seemed to have become his instinct for a long time, and he didn't need to think about it at all.
"Understood. Under the 'bald elder', the first level is ten stars. ”
The bald old man stuffed a round object that had been prepared into it from the hole left on the wooden box, and after registering the information, he took a black gas rune handed by the white-clothed assistant, and went into the city by himself.
"Next. The old ghost in red shouted lazily, weak.
An old woman walked over on a crutch, and from time to time black gas came out of her head, as if she was on fire, coughing again and again, and even in her mouth and nose, there was a trace of black gas escaping.
Ye Tianming found that there were no ghosts approaching the old woman, especially whenever there was smoke above the old woman's head, all the ghosts invariably hid farther away, as if they were afraid that the old woman would bring bad luck.
The old woman herself looked sad, and she was a little weaker every time she smoked, which made Ye Tianming faintly think that the old-fashioned old tractor in the countryside when he was on earth in the past was black smoke billowing between actions, and it was not far from being scrapped.
Instinctively, Ye Tianming thought that this old woman was probably at the end of her life.
"Hey, old beggar, isn't you dead yet? Life is hard enough, but it's a pity that even the ghost body is self-immolating, and you still want to try your luck?"
"Ahem, thanks to my care, in the first half of this Fuping ghost set, I got a fruit, and I continued my yin life. Heaven and man are declining, and the old body is estimated to not live for three months, but I can't rest assured that those children and grandchildren who don't make it are all my own blood, and I hope that the eldest brother will be accommodating again. ”
The old woman's long sleeves flashed, and suddenly there was a black gas out, and Ye Tianming vaguely saw more than a dozen yellow and clear coins flying out, which were skillfully taken by the old ghost in red.
"Hey, forget it, forget it, saving someone's life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, not to mention that there is a big family...... Let's go in, I hope you get some more chances, good people should have some good rewards......" The old ghost shook his head, stretched out his hand to signal the next one to go over, two assistants, one white and one black, but he didn't see anything.
Ye Tianming was at the end of the line, and there were more than forty ghosts in front of him, according to this slow speed of entering the city, it was estimated that it would take at least half an hour, which gave him a chance to understand the situation.
He has merit, and there are a lot of them, a full 160 points.
However, he didn't have half of the "merit money", and he didn't even know where the glittering round money came from.
It's a bit of a problem, and if you don't have money, you won't be able to get in.
Although he didn't know the details of this city, as the name suggested, combined with what he heard at this moment, Ye Tianming was enough to conclude that this city was a place of trading.
"It turns out that there are so many ancestors hidden in this Fuping Town, but they haven't seen any of them during the day. It's a great opportunity to get involved in the ancestral club. "Ye Tianming has been lonely for tens of millions of years, and now although he can communicate with his children and grandchildren through the ancestral order, after all, people and ghosts are both ways, it is inconvenient and difficult to have many common languages, and at this moment, seeing so many ancestors appear, where is not overjoyed.
It's just that, after all, it is an ancestor who should be cautious and reserved, and naturally he will not forget it at any time.
At first, he listened silently and watched, observed, and pondered, and when he reached the twenty-first in line, he overheard the method of exchanging merit money: "You need to go to the city god to exchange it, and it is fair to have one merit and one money." It's just that the City God Temple in Fuping Town is fifty miles southeast of the city, but I can't go there with my ability to move. ”
How can this be?
While!
Suddenly, the long-lost prompt of Tengu Mall sounded in the white light behind his head.
[Money exchange function open: the exchange ratio is one to two, limited-time offer, pass by, don't miss it......]
The seductive female voice, with the subtitles, suddenly came, which made Ye Tianming, who was immersed in thinking, look nervous.
"Ha, good! I didn't think of this mall, it's still a timely rain, and it's so reliable at a critical moment. Ye Tianming got the warmth of the system, and even exchanged 20 merit coins in one go.
While!
[The current amount of money is 20, because the data is less than 100, so the mall does not pay interest, hereby informed.] ]
The prompt sound that followed made Ye Tianming stunned for a moment, he really didn't expect that the mall would pay interest, but he hadn't figured out the purchasing power of this money yet, so he naturally wouldn't exchange it again.
With money, Ye Tianming immediately straightened his waist, his silver beard fluttered, his starry eyes, his sword eyebrows were like frost, and his royal blue robe was windless.
"Dude, come slowly, come slowly, pay attention to the impact, don't bump into my old man's house. A white-clothed ancestor who had always been in front of Ye Tianming suddenly turned around and looked at Ye Tianming with a displeased expression.
"Hehe, my brother is polite. I'm sorry, I just made a stump, and I don't want to step on my brother's clothes. Ye Tianming realized that he was so excited just now that he accidentally stepped on the hem of the person in front of him.
"Hmph, seeing that you are not young, this ancestor is too lazy to worry about you. However, this ancestor's moon-white robe is worth a thousand gold. You stepped on it, take out at least ten dollars, and give this ancestor a crush. The white-clothed ancestor quickly stretched out a white hand, and Ye Tianming noticed that the person in front of him turned out to be a young man, and he was quite handsome, so it was no wonder that he cared so much about his clothes.
It turned out to be a short-lived ghost, Ye Tianming muttered in his heart.
As for the money, Ye Tianming naturally couldn't give it to him casually, but in the end, he stepped on someone first, and immediately took out a white handkerchief and gently put it on the palm of the other party's outstretched hand: "Oh, little brother, the Tianpa, worth 10 money, should be compensated." ”
Naturally, this veil can't be worth 10 gold, but it's just a Tengu Mall promotional item that has just been exchanged for 1 Faith Value: Snot Cloth.
It was used to wipe off the footprints on the white-clothed boy in front of him, but there was no problem at all.
"Hmph, what kind of rag is this, and there is a smell of dog urine! Phew, dead ghost, dare to fool this ancestor!" "The ancestor in white was young when he died, and he also inherited his young and vigorous character after his death, although he has been an ancestor for many years, but this temper is getting bigger and bigger, and he immediately turned his head and pulled at Ye Tianming's shirt: "Let's go, let's find the city lord to judge!"
Before Ye Tianming could stop it, he saw a yellow light flash, and the white dot had already taken the first step towards the white-clothed ancestor.
"Wang!" As this cry came out, Ye Tianming immediately smiled bitterly, and he couldn't keep a low profile at this moment.
"Ahhh......h
"Stop!"
A loud shout sounded, and I saw a ghost general flying down from the city gate, and the spear in his hand flashed with a little white light.
