Chapter 16: Nether Thugs
As the sun set, Li Xian stood on the terrace of the Lin family, scanning the surroundings vigilantly.
He faintly sensed the strange half-ghost aura.
Now is the most busy time for the Lin family, and the unknown half-ghost gang has been preparing to wait for an opportunity.
It's just too deceitful!
Li Xian clenched his fists, and suddenly made a decision: he wanted to find out the people behind this gang and use him to pay tribute to Lin Mu's soul! Avenge the old man!
It also allows the old man to walk at ease!
"Old classmate, who messed with you?" Iron Wolf asked.
He is a half-ghost at the ground level, and he does not have Li Xian's sensibility.
"Are there any mercenaries or anything in the half-ghost world?" Li Xian asked.
"I haven't heard of mercenaries or anything, but I know that there are some nether thugs, as long as you are willing to show yang energy, they are willing to die for you." Iron Wolf replied.
"Nether thugs?" It was the first time Li Xian had heard such a term.
"They're half-ghosts, too. Half-ghosts, like humans, are also some born with disabilities. But this disability of half-ghosts is more miserable, they can't directly absorb the yang energy of humans, and they completely rely on other half-ghosts to supply them. This kind of half-ghost with a family background naturally does not need to worry about survival; If you don't have a background, you just rely on working for other half-ghosts and changing some yang energy to live. They generally hide in the cemetery, so they are called Nether thugs. Iron Wolf introduced.
"Why hide in the cemetery?" Li Xian said strangely.
"They can't directly absorb human yang energy, so naturally they don't want to stay in the crowd anymore. The first batch of such half-ghosts who lived by being thugs lived in the cemetery, and over time it became customary, and the cemetery became a gathering place for such thugs. This kind of half-ghost definitely doesn't have a bank account, so their transaction is very simple, before looking for them, fill their sea of qi; After helping, when they are gone, just fill their sea of qi again. ”
"That's what I need!" Li Xian breathed a sigh of relief.
He not only wants to protect the old man and Lin Wei, but also wants to catch the leader of the gang, but he is suffering from a lack of manpower.
"If you want Nether thugs, I'll help you find some now. How much do you need? What level? However, the cemetery is generally full of human-level and miscellaneous ghosts, and there are very few earth-level ones, so don't even think about a heaven-level person like you. ”
"That's the prefecture-level, a few to a few. If the prefecture-level ones are not enough, find one or twenty human-level ones. ”
"No problem!" The iron wolf was a neat person, and as soon as the words fell, the person had already flown out dozens of meters away.
…
…
In less than an hour, the iron wolf led a group of weak half-ghosts to rush back.
A total of twenty-two and a half ghosts! Twenty human-level, two prefecture-level! Their bodies, which were extremely lacking in yang energy, were already ethereal!
Li Xian led them downstairs to the bamboo forest in Qianshan Park and lined them up, he released the sea of qi and instilled yang qi in them one by one.
"Damn, the heaven-level rune is a cow, and it's simply a mobile yang-filling station!" Iron Wolf said enviously.
Twenty human-level half-ghosts used up Li Xian's twenty taels of yang energy.
The two ground-level half-ghosts used up Li Xian's twenty taels of yang energy.
"Old classmate, you're welcome, I have action tonight, fill your sea of qi too!" Li Xian said.
There are still six or seven taels of yang qi in the sea of iron wolf qi, and when Li Xian said this, he was no longer polite, and filled it with three taels.
"Wow, the boss this time is from a heaven-level rune!"
"I didn't expect to have the opportunity to meet a heaven-level half-ghost once in my life!"
"Haha, when I get back to the cemetery, I'll have to brag with those guys!"
……
The half-ghosts full of yang energy are alive and well.
Li Xian looked inwardly at his sea of qi, and there were almost forty or fifty taels in it.
"Brothers, I'm going to ask you tonight!" Li Xian clenched his fists at the ghosts.
"You're welcome, boss, we have to thank you for giving us food!" The half-ghosts said respectfully.
At that moment, Li Xian divided the labor for them and divided them into two groups, a group of ten and a half ghosts. Let the two prefecture-level half-ghosts be their squad leaders respectively.
The two prefecture-level half-ghosts are named Zhao Boss and Liu Bo respectively.
"Liu Bo, you take your team and ambush around the entire house, and don't let any half-ghosts in! You will not be able to go in unless the situation so requires. In particular, don't hurt the humans inside! ”
That Liu Bo is also a young man, and he said: "Boss, don't worry, we Netherworld thugs have our own rules, and we will definitely work hard to complete the task of the master's family." As for harming humans, you can rest assured, we can't even absorb the yang energy of humans directly, so what reason is there to hurt humans! ”
Li Xian nodded, and then asked another prefecture-level half-ghost and said, "Boss Zhao, you and the ten half-ghosts in your group will patrol the surroundings now, and once you find a suspicious half-ghost, notify me immediately." When I go after me, you follow me and cooperate with me at all times. ”
"Yes, sir!" Boss Zhao is in his forties, with a strong physique, yang energy in the sea of qi, and a good mood, saying funny things and doing funny actions from time to time, which makes the ghosts laugh from time to time.
Of course, their bodies are in a state of nothingness, and humans cannot see them or hear them.
After arranging everyone, Li Xian said to the iron wolf: "Old classmate, if I leave, the old man will please you!" ”
"Don't worry!" The iron wolf patted his chest and said, "It's still the same sentence, even if I am beaten into scum, I won't let my seniors be hurt." ”
Li Xian smiled and said honestly: "I was not at ease with you before. It's a lot more reassuring now. ”
…
…
After a busy day, Lin Wei and her three sisters all squeezed into her boudoir to sleep.
As for the male colleague, he was very timid and couldn't squeeze in with all the female colleagues, so he went home early.
Li Xian and Iron Wolf accompanied the old man, chatting with each other.
Iron Wolf was jokingly asking the old man what it was like to pretend to be dead, when suddenly a half-ghost shouted outside the window: "Boss, come quickly, find out the enemy!" ”
Li Xian and Iron Wolf stood up at the same time.
"Old classmate, don't go out, be careful is a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain!" Li Xian said as he flicked his toes on the ground and flew out in an instant.
Boss Zhao led the ten half-ghosts, and had already surrounded the two middle-aged half-ghosts.
"It's you!" Li Xian immediately recognized that it was the pair of half-ghosts who played tricks on him when he was in the hospital.
The male half-ghost smiled: "Little brother, you can, you have found so many helpers so quickly!" ”
The female half-ghost glanced at the male half-ghost, and said, "Dead ghost, be careful, these are netherworld thugs, all of them are people who are willing to work hard for a breath of yang energy!" ”
"Brothers, take them alive for me!" Li Xian gave an order and rushed forward.
