Chapter 41: The Old Naughty Boy

"The paper figure is a hanger at best, and most of the time it is used as a punching bag. Paper people, like cars and airplanes, are things that ghosts can't take with them before they are reincarnated. They can choose to pawn the sacrifices they received for money, and after exchanging them for valid coins approved by Hades, they can help them wash away some of their sins and avoid the pain of atonement before reincarnation.

"Therefore, paper figures, airplanes, villas, etc., will be resold as commodities to the inhabitants of the netherworld who actually live - that is, ghosts. If you really want to let people on this side of the nether get the company of others, burial is the only effective way. ”

Gu Gesang shuddered, "It's cruel to accompany the funeral." ”

"And it doesn't necessarily really get there." Da Ji Zhongyuan slowed down his flying speed, "As long as it is not a large-scale disaster or accident, the ghosts of living people usually come to the netherworld as individuals, and after they come, they must be registered in groups according to the rules of the underworld. Madame, look over thereβ€”"

Gu Gesang looked in the direction of Daji Zhongyuan's finger and saw a high-rise building of about forty floors.

"That's the underworld?"

"Hmm. The building was rebuilt seven years ago and is full of ghosts of busy work. ”

Gu Gesang grinned, "This is very different from what I imagined!" ”

"There's more than one like you. Not long ago, there was a ghost who escaped from the chains of the ghost and possessed the living and told what he had seen and heard in the netherworld, but no one believed him, everyone would just think he was crazy. Da Ji Zhongyuan shrugged, "The ghosts who leak the situation of the netherworld will be dragged to hard labor, and until their punishment is completed, they will be eligible to enter the realm of reincarnation and live again in the next life." ”

Gu Gesang looked around curiously, "It's good to live in the netherworld, and you don't necessarily have to be reincarnated." ”

"Living ghosts are usually not allowed to move freely in the Netherworld, and most of the people who live in the Netherworld are ghosts. There are generally only two types of living ghosts that live in the netherworld:

"The first case is that they have made a noteworthy contribution to the netherworld, or that the soul itself has some kind of value. The second situation is that he has a clean background and is unwilling to be reincarnated. However, there are not many ghosts with clean backgrounds, so when they stay in the netherworld, there are only a handful of ghosts of the residents. ”

As he spoke, he was almost at the Ghost God Temple.

Daji Zhongyuan finally stopped in front of a splendid palace built along the high mountain, and Gu Gesang looked at the plaque of the high gate, and felt that this ancient style building stood in the midst of a modern steel forest, so out of place.

"Where is the discord? Isn't the Forbidden City harmoniously integrated into Beijing? ”

Da Ji Zhongyuan flicked Gu Gesang's head, and then his fingers shook slightly. Gu Gesang only felt that it was dark in front of him, and when he opened his eyes again, the original adventure outfit on his body had disappeared, replaced by an ink-colored skirt.

"The Ghost God Palace is still in the same costume as before, so we can't go in the same outfit we just wore it."

"Hmm!" Gu Gesang has already turned on the well-behaved and obedient mode, ready to learn new rules at any time.

Coincidentally, on the day they came back, Lord Ghost God and Ghost God Niangniang happened to be invited by other ghost clan patriarchs to go out as guests and were not in the palace.

Da Ji Zhongyuan took Gu Gesang all the way through the palace unhindered, and met the people of the Ghost Spirit Palace along the way, Gu Gesang saw through the surprise and joy on their faces that could not be hidden.

"Is this our living princess?"

"Looks like a perfect match for His Highness......"

The ghosts looked at her face and temperament, and she observed the exquisite and unique ancient makeup of the palace people.

"Their makeup is so beautiful." Gu Gesang shook Da Ji Zhongyuan's arm and exclaimed.

Da Ji Zhongyuan looked at her fondly and smiled, "The princess's makeup looks better, go back and let Zhu Yi paint it for you." ”

"Yes, yes."

As they spoke, they had already arrived at another huge palace behind the Ghost God Temple.

"Look, that's "Ghosts and Gods." Da Ji Zhongyuan pointed to the back of an old man sitting on a futon in the hall eating a similar ginseng fruit, and introduced it to Gu Gesang.

Gu Gesang was stunned again.

It turns out that this book is not an ancient book, but a ...... A living person?

Then how did Da Ji Zhongyuan tell her that there was a whole page of records about her in "Ghost and God Wanshilu"?

"Zhong Yuan brought a stranger." The old man sat still, his voice was old but full of vitality, "Huh? Could it be ......?"

He slowly turned his head, and Gu Gesang saw the face of an old man covered with wrinkles, and his white goatee covered his round chin, but his bright eyes did not look like an old man, but like a lively young man who was full of curiosity about everything in this world.

"It's you, the little princess of Gesang." The old man grinned, as if greeting a kind old acquaintance.

Gu Gesang hurriedly responded, "Hello......"

"When the "Ghost and God Wanshilu" ordered Lao Yu to write the page about you, Lao Yu really wanted to see with his own eyes what kind of living woman could become the key to changing the history of the Da Ji clan."

As he spoke, the old man's whole body had already turned around, but he was still sitting on the futon, rubbing the white fresh fruit in his hand, and seemed to like it very much, so he was reluctant to let go.

Da Ji Zhongyuan put his palm on Gu Gesang's waist and introduced her, "This is Lord Dengling, just like Achai is your guardian, Lord Dengling is responsible for accompanying the "Ghost and God Wanshilu", protecting it, and writing for it. ”

"Let's talk," the lamp spirit continued to rub his little fruit repeatedly with his wrinkled palm, "Zhong Yuan, what did you bring the little princess of Gesang to find the old man today?" ”

"I would like to ask the "Ghost and God Everything" to find out the whereabouts of a ghost now."

The white eyebrows of the lamp spirit immediately raised, "Oh, this is not okay! It's a violation! ”

But as soon as he finished speaking, he put down Xiao Guo'er, and in his hand there was a thick ancient book, and he muttered a few incantations, and ancient words began to appear on the yellowed paper.

The mouth says no, but the body is very honest?

Lord Lantern Spirit is really "principled"...... The corners of Gu Gesang's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but snicker.

The frequency of his flipping through the book became faster and faster, and at the end, he looked up at Gu Gesang in a daze, and then looked at Daji Zhongyuan in front of him.

"What ghosts are you looking for?"

Da Ji Zhong Yuan rubbed his eyebrows helplessly.

The lantern spirit is still the same as the original, belonging to the type of goldfish, and only has a seven-second memory.

Without waiting for Da Ji Zhongyuan to speak, Gu Gesang began to answer, "The person we are looking for, his name in his previous life should be Li Rang." ”

After thinking about it, he felt that it was wrong, and added, "It may also be the name of the Great Past Life, the Great Past Life." ”

Lord Lantern nodded, looking like he knew it in his heart. The ancient books in his hand were an ancient dark yellow, and he quickly flipped through them almost as soon as he bit the fruit.

Gu Gesang asked worriedly, "What if the juice accidentally drip on the "Ghost and God Wanshilu"?" ”

This was originally said to Da Ji Zhongyuan, who would have thought that the short Lord Dengling turned around angrily, "Little princess, don't use low-level mistakes to doubt old age." ”

"The old man has been taking care of the "Ghost and God Wanshilu" for thousands of years, and he has lived much longer than your father's father's father's father, and you say this is an insult to the old man. Hum! "Don't look away.

Da Ji Zhongyuan's face immediately collapsed.

It was Gu Gesang who stopped him, and coaxed the kind and childish little old man with a sneer, "It's me who is bad, I shouldn't question your decision at will." ”

Gu Gesang pointed to the fruit in his hand, "There are many delicious things in the world, and they are a thousand times better than this." Next time I come to the netherworld, I can bring you some. ”

"Really?" The little old man raised his eyebrows suspiciously, he didn't have the slightest appearance as a lamp spirit lord.

Seeing Gu Gesang nodding solemnly, the lamp spirit jumped up, patted his buttocks, pointed at Da Ji Zhongyuan's nose and said angrily, "It's better to be a little princess, not like you." Said - did you want to be rough with me just now? ”

"You can't check it yet." Da Ji Zhong Yuan smiled as much as he coercively, this expression looked quite intimidating, and even Gu Gesang couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw it.

The lantern spirit flipped through the ancient books again, and the dense handwriting flashed one name after another. They are all sorted according to the change of dynasties.

Gu Gesang leaned over to look curiously, but she only caught a glimpse of it, all of them were traditional characters, and there were some ghost drawings that she couldn't understand. The names of each dynasty are different, and some are even written in oracle bone inscriptions.

This makes her, a person who learns the Chinese language, feel that her country's culture is really long-standing and profound. She saw Shang, Zhou, and Qin in the pages that flew by, and finally came to an abrupt end on the pages of the Tang Dynasty.

"Look, isn't this one?" The lamp spirit held up the huge "Ghost and God Everything", and he himself was not yet as tall as a book. So this picture looks quite hilarious. It's like a child stealing something from an adult.

"Ghosts and Gods Wanshilu" records information about Li Rang of the Tang Dynasty, he was reincarnated in the Song Dynasty, but unfortunately he was born at the wrong time, when the Song Dynasty emphasized literature and light martial arts, and he was suppressed as a military general.

Later, in the Ming Dynasty, he participated in the imperial examination system, was honored to rank among the top three, and enjoyed the glory and wealth for a period of time. But unfortunately, he died early, at the age of twenty-eight. What's even more bizarre is that no matter how many years Li Rang was reincarnated, he never married a wife.

In the most recent life, he was hacked to death on his wedding night? This way of dying is also very bizarre.

Gu Gesang tilted his head and thought for a while, "Do you say that Li Rang has always had Qinghe in his subconscious, so he hasn't married for a long time." As long as you marry a wife, there must be a curse? ”

"I don't know if he has a green crane in his heart, but what is certain is that Meng Po Tang will never have a problem."
