Volume 2: Entering the Ghost Feast by Mistake Verse 105: Money can make ghosts grind
"How's that, be on time, it'll be solved in a minute." After the Xing brothers ran away, Zhang Su raised his fist and looked at Pu Zitong with a wry smile.
"It doesn't make sense, although your special body and soul skills are very strong, but you won't be able to solve the two junior ghost kings of the Xing family at once, are you cheating? Did you use some Horcrux to improve your strength? Pu Zitong first looked at the Xing brothers who fled in surprise, and after the Xing brothers ran away, Pu Zitong looked at Zhang Su with a suspicious face and asked.
"I don't have any Horcruxes, just now it was really just the power of my body soul technique, I didn't expect that I was only promoted to the next level, and the power of my body soul skill has actually become so much stronger, I myself am a little puzzled." Zhang Su replied with a wry smile, he didn't lie, he really didn't know why his Yuantian Xuan Body was suddenly so strong, if he knew, he wouldn't have used all his strength directly, he knew that he had injured the Xing family brothers a lot just now, not only the body, but also the souls of the two Xing family brothers would not be too good.
"What are you cultivating in the body soul technique? It's the first time I've seen a body soul skill that can have such an increase with the promotion of soul power, your move just now is much more powerful than when you used it in the Heavenly Soul Castle, when you dealt with Xia Ying and Gu Yueming, the most you used to drive them out of the ring was to use the body soul skill, and now your body soul skill almost wiped out the two junior ghost kings with one move, which is too perverted. Pu Zitong was very interested in Zhang Su's body and soul skills, and kept comparing Zhang Su with Zhang Su during the Heavenly Soul Castle period.
"Oops, it's just a body soul technique found casually in the Heavenly Soul Pavilion, it's nothing special, it may be a problem with my cultivation method." Zhang Su didn't want to expose the matter of the Yuan Tian Soul Technique, so he made up a reason to explain.
"I don't believe it, you must have hidden some secret that you didn't tell me, but forget it, I don't want to know, but I have a secret from the Xing family brothers, I don't know if you are interested?" Pu Zitong stared at Zhang Ji playfully and asked.
"What's the secret?" Zhang asked back puzzled.
"Didn't you stumble into a small ghost banquet before? Recently, the intelligence officers of several major families have collected some information about the ghost banquet, and I heard that there are rumors of ghost banquets in many parts of the country, which are learned from the hunted ghosts, and it is said that there are also them here in Qicheng, which is a high-level ghost-level ghost organization called Lei Lin Ghost, and it should set off a bloody storm in the soul realm. Pu Zitong said mysteriously.
"Lei Lin Ghost Banquet?!" Zhang Su heard Pu Zitong mention the Lei Lin ghost, and unconsciously shouted.
"You know?" Pu Zitong heard Zhang Su blurt out and asked puzzled.
"Well, no, I've heard about it, I heard it from a little ghost I hunted before, but I didn't expect the news to spread." Zhang Su explained.
"I see, you really already know, it took a lot of effort for the major families to investigate the information of the ghost banquet before, I also heard it from the two brothers of the Xing family, their family is not in Qi City, but in a fourth-tier town outside Qi City, this time they came to you to challenge it completely by the way, the main purpose of the Xing family this time is to be invited to support the work of clearing the Lei Lin Ghost Banquet." Pu Zitong explained.
"To clear the ghost banquet, just rely on the two junior soul kings of the Xing family?" Zhang asked puzzled.
"That's not it, the Xing family is led by their second leader Xing Zhao this time, a junior soul ancestor brought two senior soul kings, Xing Guanze and the two brothers just came to join in the fun, and by the way, they participated in our Pu family's martial arts competition." Pu Zitong explained.
"Then you're still letting me fight with them? It's a waste of my time, just ignore this kind of try to play later, it's good, I guess I'm going to have a grudge with the Xing family just now. Zhang Wei snorted coldly.
"Why ignore it, I originally wanted to let you see the Xing family's unique poisonous soul technique moves, so that you wouldn't suffer losses from some soul masters who use poison in the future, but before they even used the moves, you just knocked those two brothers down, what a waste of my hard work." Pu Zitong pretended to be sorry and said.
"I just knew that this was kind, aren't you kidding me, obviously I helped you clean up the two troubles, okay, forget it, let's go back to the matter of the Lei Lin Ghost Banquet, how can it be effective just because the Xing family's junior soul ancestor led the team to break into the Lei Lin Ghost Banquet? As far as I know, the Lei Lin ghost is a high-level ghost, and there must be other ghost-level people present at the ghost banquet, and the junior soul ancestor is not enough to stuff the Lei Lin ghost's teeth. Zhang Su was puzzled.
"It's not just the Xing family who participated in the encirclement and suppression of Lei Lin's ghost banquet, the Xing family is just here to help in the war, the real organizer is the soul hunting company, led by Yan Lao himself, and several families near Qicheng are supporting, it is said that the company has contacted three people from the soul master family to participate in this matter, and the two brothers of the Xing family are not clear about the specific situation, in general, there is so much news." Pu Zitong explained.
After listening to Pu Zitong's explanation, Zhang Su fell into deep thought, he originally thought that only he knew about the Lei Lin ghost banquet, so that he could find a chance to seek revenge on the ghost alone, but what he didn't expect was that now the matter of the Lei Lin ghost banquet has spread in the soul realm, and his previous plan to sneak attack the ghost may not be able to go on as usual, which makes Zhang Su a little distressed, it stands to reason that it is a good thing for the company and some soul clans to intervene in the crusade of the ghost banquet, and they can destroy the ghost banquet at the same time, but those ghost ghosts are not fools, Once the matter of the ghost banquet is exposed, those revenant souls and evil ghosts who participated in the ghost banquet will definitely not sit still, and the final result will be very variable, which Zhang Su does not want to see.
"What are you thinking?" Seeing that Zhang Su didn't speak, Pu Zitong asked puzzled.
"It's nothing, the ghost banquet is not something we can mix, by the way, aren't you going to invite me to a movie? What kind of movie are you watching? Zhang Su didn't plan to talk to Pu Zitong about Lei Lin's ghost banquet anymore, and asked.
"It's a real ghost movie about the ghosts of the dead." Pu Zitong replied.
"Impossible, how can there be any real ghost movies in the cinema? It's impossible for a film with a ghost to pass the review, okay. Zhang Su showed an expression of disbelief.
"This film is a kind of superimposition, using the technique of superimposing shadows, the movie itself is a light-hearted comedy, but if you open the eyes of yin and yang, this film is a movie about ghosts, that is to say, a movie can reveal different images in the present world and the soul realm, how about it, magical, right?" Pu Zitong explained with a smile.
"Why is there such a movie?" Zhang Su was puzzled.
"In fact, it is just to use special soul fluctuations to reproduce the ghosts in the form of graphic images, and when the feature film is released, the images composed of this special soul waves are screened to achieve a certain purpose." Pu Zitong explained.
"Ghost images? Who made it into a movie? Does anyone watch this kind of film? Ordinary people can't see it, why bother with that? Zhang Su was full of questions, and asked one by one.
"It's said to be a movie, in fact, it's more accurate to say that it's a secret wanted warrant, most of the ghosts that appear in this kind of movie are powerful ghosts on the run, and the secret wanted warrant is broadcast in the form of a movie, and some specific ghosts are released nationwide with bounties, similar to the bounties you receive in the soul hunting company, and the movie wanted warrant is issued by the major soul master families outside the soul hunting company, so you understand." Pu Zitong continued to explain.
"Bounty order? I thought only the Soul Hunter Company would issue a bounty. Zhang Su said suddenly, it turned out that the movie that Pu Zitong wanted to take him to see was actually a reward announcement for some kind of soul master realm, presumably Pu Zitong intended to take himself to see the soul realm world outside the soul hunting company.
"How long has the Soul Hunter Company been established? It's just that it relies on the official power behind it to grow in the soul realm, so the soul hunting company and Mr. Nan Guo are not too recognized by the various families in the soul master's territory, although many soul master families recognize the official status of the soul hunting company in the soul realm on the surface, but in private, no one looks down on the decline of the Nan Guo family and asks for help, Mr. Nan Guo also knows this kind of thing, so he doesn't dare to rely on the official recognition to have excessive bad relations with the inheritance family in the soul territory, after the soul hunting company's new bounty soul hunting market opens, The original old soul hunting mode still remains, and soul master families like our Pu family, who are outside the official, still use the old-fashioned soul hunting mode, and the superimposed movie is an old method that has been used for decades. Pu Zitong introduced.
"Ha, you always open the door to a new world for me." After listening to Pu Zitong's introduction, Zhang Su sighed.
"There is not much difference between the soul realm and the human world, they are all in the same skyscraper, this skyscraper is called the heaven and earth realm, and those grievances and power conspiracies that the human world has are also in the soul realm, after all, the soul master is also a human being, or all the exorcists who can enter the soul realm are also physical mortals, and they also have seven emotions and six desires, Your Soul Hunting Road has the protection and blockade of the Soul Hunting Company, and you don't know much about things within the Soul Hunting Company and outside the Soul Hunting Company, so what I told you seems so new to you. Pu Zitong thought about it and responded.
"I think the Soul Hunting Company is very good, I don't like the chaotic state of survival competition you said, I prefer to float leisurely on the calm sea than the depths of the sea, and that kind of life will be comfortable." Zhang Su said with a smile.
"If you don't know the law of the undercurrent in the depths of the sea, you are very likely to strayed into the annihilation point of the sea without noticing, and then the slim people will have no resistance to watch the coming of death, and there will be no hope for life." Pu Zitong said coldly.
"Annihilation?" Zhang asked puzzled.
"The undercurrent is regular, you understand its law, follow the law, you will avoid those tossing and turning waves, if you don't know its law, as long as you are still floating on the sea, one day you will hit the big wave, and it will knock you, the unfortunate ignorant to the bottom of the sea, that is your point of annihilation, the same way, the soul realm is this sea, maybe when and where the huge waves will be set off, then you will still be floating on the sea at that time you will have no chance to escape." Pu Zitong explained.
"You're talking about crisis awareness?" Zhang Su scratched his head, he understood what Pu Zitong meant a little, and asked.
"It is to know the destiny of heaven, the rules of heaven and earth, know and follow the people who can not pass through the heavens but can become holy, those who go against the rules of heaven and earth will die against the time, and the ignorant can exist in the world for how long they are naturally created, this is the admonition left by the ancestors of our Pujia Chuangpai, and it is said that our Pujia Chuangpai is also following the trend." Pu Zitong corrected.
"It's a bit profound, wait for me to digest it slowly, let's go to the movies, no, let's go see which soul hunting families have released bounties on the big screen, I'm still quite curious about this kind of novelty." Zhang Su urged.
"Let's go, at the Blue Star Cinema, it's just a street away, and you can walk there in a few minutes." Pu Zitong nodded and walked in front.
"Then I won't push the cart, by the way, I often go to the cinema to watch blockbusters, why haven't I heard of the name Blue Star Cinema?" Zhang Su left the car in the parking area in front of the taiko coffee shop, followed behind Pu Zitong, and asked.
"Of course, you live far from here, and the Blue Star Cinema is an old theater, and there is nothing attractive about it except that it is cheap, so it's normal that you don't know." Pu Zitong replied.
"It's a miracle that this kind of old theater hasn't closed down in today's highly competitive market." After listening to Pu Zitong's answer, Zhang Su not only sighed.
"In addition to the low ticket price of the Blue Star Cinema, which can slightly attract some audiences who are not rich in money to come to pay, its income can only maintain the procurement of film sources and the maintenance of the theater, and the rest of the profitable income depends on the bounty release subsidies carried out by the major soul master families, because the boss of the Blue Star Cinema received the favor of several soul master families in the early years, so the boss promised that as long as the theater did not lose money, it would continue to open, which is considered a semi-public welfare nature." Pu Zitong explained.
"In this way, in addition to the old-fashioned cinema when I was very young and watched a few black-and-white movies, I haven't felt the atmosphere of the old cinema for more than ten years. Zhang Su sighed.
"Old man, you just remember, and I didn't really let you go to the movies, I want you to help me refer to it, I want to accept some bounties from major soul master families at the same time as the soul hunting company, I don't know what you suggest." Pu Zitong finally said his true purpose.
"Why? Isn't the bounty in the Soul Hunter Company enough for you to take? Zhang asked puzzled.
"If you just want to make money, then the reward of the Soul Hunting Company can indeed meet your needs, but if you really want to make a name for yourself in the soul territory, the system of the Soul Hunting Company has become an infancy, and you will be protected in it and never grow up, so I want to try to accept some bounty tasks from various families, these tasks include intelligence, hunting, support and assistance, etc., which are more diversified than the bounty mode of the Soul Hunting Company, and you can also train a soul master from many aspects, Therefore, the soul masters in the Soul Hunting Company generally do not have those family disciples who grow rapidly. Pu Zitong explained his opinion.
"I'm not growing up slowly, I'm now an intermediate soul king, the two Xing brothers who came to challenge before look about the same age as me, and they are only at the junior soul king level." Zhang Su said with a smile.
"That's just your exception, although I don't know what you've experienced, but your growth is really beyond my expectations, and even your growth is beyond most people's expectations, but there are no people who can be at the same level as you now with a group of newcomers, and there is only one person who even ascends the soul king level except you, so you are a special case, and on the other hand, the major soul clans, there have been many powerful newcomers in recent times, Chen Qi, Ji Kuo, and Xia Ying, they have all reached the level of intermediate soul kings, If Gu Yueming is not injured by the plot, her breakthrough to the high-level soul king is just around the corner, and this kind of growth speed is not comparable to the wild vegetables randomly dug by the soul hunting company. Pu Zitong retorted.
"Digging wild vegetables?" Zhang Su scratched his head and asked.
"Well, this is the soul realm's joking name for the soul hunting company's search for the soul master model, in the soul master realm, the soul master clan relies on marriage, childbirth and other modes for population expansion, and occasionally accepts some foreign children, such as people who have strayed into the soul realm or people who are born with abnormal souls, and rarely take the initiative to find ordinary people in the present world, because it is risky, and it is also immoral to erase part of a person's spiritual memory in the soul master realm, and almost any family is unwilling to make a big mistake, Only the Soul Hunting Company in the Soul Realm cannot rely on marriage and childbirth to expand, so the Soul Hunting Company can only use the method of recruiting outsiders to join to maintain the operation of the company and expand its power, which was later called digging wild vegetables. Pu Zitong replied with a smile.
"So I'm the wild herb?" Zhang Su asked with a wry smile.
"You're a ginseng among wild plants." Pu Zitong covered his mouth and replied.
Zhang Su could only shake his head helplessly, no longer responded, and continued to walk behind Pu Zitong.
"Here we are, Blue Star Cinema." As he spoke, he crossed a street, and Pu Zitong pointed to an old-fashioned movie theater that looked dilapidated and shouted, and just as Pu Zitong spoke, a gray-white cracked wall skin seemed to be shaken down by Pu Zitong's voice, and fell to the ground with a clatter.
"It's older than I thought it would be." Zhang Su looked at the broken wall skin on the ground and said with a wry smile.
"The outside is quite broken, but the inside is okay, because the maintenance can keep up, the environment inside has been improved in the direction of comfort to the greatest extent, except for some cold and cold tides, it is actually not bad, the projection method is not the digital copy hard disk of the current digital cinema, but the model of the film copy source of the film era, although the cost is slightly higher, but in order to let the people of the soul realm see those high bounty releases, the people who publish can only spend a little more money." Before entering the theater, Pu Zitong took the lead in explaining.
"Isn't the reward for a little ghost only a few hundred dollars? I'm afraid the person who posted it will be insolvent. Zhang asked with a smile.
"That's the Soul Hunting Company, and the bounties that can be released in the Blue Star Cinema can range from a few thousand to millions." Pu Zitong looked at Zhang Su with disdain and explained.
"Millions? Ghost King? Zhang Su was shocked and almost dropped his mouth.
"A lead can also be worth so much money." Pu Zitong replied.
"Why?" Zhang asked puzzled.
"A business news may be worth hundreds of millions, how many people are willing to sell their souls to the dead ghosts for this opportunity to make a fortune, then how many people in this world are willing to hire soul masters at a high price in order to protect this money, there is a saying that flows out of the soul master realm is called 'money can make ghosts grind', this is what it says." Pu Zitong replied.
"This is what the soul master said?" Zhang Su scratched his chin and showed a surprised expression.
