"Remember, in order to save your life, there are twenty-three souls who have lost their qualifications for reincarnation, and since then their souls have been scattered and dissipated between heaven and earth. This is the cause and effect you owe, and the final outcome is that you will do more good deeds from now on, and don't let these souls sacrifice for you in vain. ”

The words of the Taoist chief came from behind me, and I understood without him that the soul he released from the gourd should be the soul of the lonely soul and wild ghost he collected outside, and planned to reincarnate them in the underworld. However, these demons are ferocious and aggressive, and they specialize in sucking weak souls, if I don't release these sealed souls at this moment, my earth soul will probably dissipate between heaven and earth.

"I will, I will definitely cherish this hard-won life, as long as I live for one day, I will do more good deeds and try my best to save the suffering creatures." The Taoist chief's behavior at this moment is equivalent to exchanging twenty-three lives for one of my lives, and I am both uneasy and moved, and I shouted with tears in my eyes.

Finally, because of the appearance of more weak souls, these demons no longer targeted me, but flew towards the position of the Dao Leader in a swarm. I turned my head to look, and I saw the scene of the twenty-three souls fleeing in all directions frightened by the evil spirits. But how could these demons let go of the food in their mouths, they opened their mouths, and they tore off half of the soul in front of them, and for a moment, there were monstrous cries of begging for mercy and horror behind me, and the demons seemed to enjoy it even more, narrowing their bloody eyes and revealing a pleasant smile

"Thank you." Seeing the tragic sacrifice of lonely souls and wild ghosts for me, I didn't have the courage to continue watching, turned my head, pulled up my legs, and ran quickly forward regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one.

I ran for more than ten minutes in one go, and finally there was no more crying for help from behind me, and I slowed down slightly.

"This is"

After trotting forward for another five or six minutes, I saw a huge city rising from the ground not far away, the dark city wall was more than 100 meters high, filled with the vicissitudes of vicissitudes, and in the center of the city wall, the huge word "Xudu" was engraved on the seal.

"Ghost town in Xudu?!"

I blurted out, my heart shocked, could it be that the legendary ghost town really exists?

Thinking of this, my heart was so excited that I couldn't help but speed up a little bit, wanting to approach one of the most classic places in this mythological allusion.

But before I had taken a few steps, I saw a ghost in tattered gray clothes, unkempt hair, and a wooden cane in his hand approaching me.

Strange to say, the ghost moved slowly, and after approaching me three meters, he lowered his head and held out his right hand at me with his left hand on crutches.

I didn't understand what it meant, but after a moment of careful observation, and seeing that it didn't seem to have any malice, I slowly moved my steps, bypassed its position, and quietly walked forward.

I had only taken a few steps before it came up again, still with its head down, crutches in one hand, and the other in my direction.

"What is it trying to do? Could it be that there are beggars among the ghosts? But I don't have any money. ”

I didn't understand its intentions, but after a few trials I found that I didn't move, it didn't move, it kept begging, but once I did, he would move a little closer in my direction, and the distance between the two sides had been reduced from two meters to less than a meter.

"If I keep going like this, it will definitely keep coming closer to me, what should I do? Run? ”

After discovering that the situation was not right, and that this ghost did not seem to be as easy to get along with as I had imagined, countless thoughts flashed through my mind, and finally I decided on one idea, which was to run. Seeing that it moves slowly, it may not be able to catch up with me, otherwise if it approaches like this, the devil knows what its final purpose is.

With this in mind, I ran in the direction of the city, and after more than ten steps, I turned my head to look behind me, and found that the ghost that haunted me was gone. I vaguely felt that something was wrong, and sure enough, when I turned my head again, I found that he was already standing less than a meter in front of me, with one hand on crutches and the other slowly reaching towards me.

But now it no longer lowered its head, but raised its head, staring at me deadly, and I could see a hint of anger in his dusty face.

In this way, the situation has become embarrassing, this ghost is definitely not as unbearable as it seems, if it really gets angry, it is estimated that I will still have to suffer, so I don't dare to move, just stand motionless and wait.

"Boy, what are you doing?" After more than a minute of pestle, the Taoist chief in a colorful Taoist robe was late and asked curiously.

"This thing, it's been haunting me." Hearing the voice of the Taoist, I suddenly felt like I had found a page in the ocean, and my nervous heart eased.

"Oh, haha, you must have run away in front of it just now, this thing, you can't run, you can't fight." The Taoist walked over with a smile, reached out and took out a few coins from his bosom, and put them into the palm of his right hand that the ghost in front of me was outstretching. But the ghost was still staring at me, and the Taoist chief smiled, "Yo yo yo, it's not enough, take it all." ”

With that, the Taoist took out two more coins from his bosom and put them into the ghost's hand, and the ghost withdrew his gaze, lowered his head again, and walked towards the side step by step with his cane in his hand.

"Whew" The haunting thing in front of me walked away, and I was relieved, so I exhaled deeply and asked, "Dao Chief, why can't it fight or run?" Why do you give it money and it automatically gives way? Is it really a beggar? ”

"Have you ever heard of buying road money?" The Taoist chief looked at the ghost that was gradually moving away, and said, "There is a way that is difficult for little ghosts, this is a beggar ghost, a beggar among ghosts, it only seeks wealth, not life." I'd rather mess with the king of Hades, don't mess with the little ghost, that's the truth, if you give it money, it will let you go, if you provoke it and make it feel uncomfortable, it will try its best to pester you to death, and it will never leave easily if you don't make your head bleed. So when I encounter this kind of imp, I'd rather spend some money than provoke them, although they don't have much ability, but it is also very difficult to initiate madness, and it is time-consuming and thankless. ”

"Oh." I nodded thoughtfully, and at the same time secretly rejoiced, fortunately the Taoist came in time, otherwise I would have suffered.

"Because I often have to come to this ghost town to run errands, I bought a house here, which can be regarded as a temporary place to stay, and when we get there, I will teach you how to support your dreams, and let your relatives help you return to your yang." When I entered the ghost town, the Taoist chief took me and walked towards the interior of the city.

"Come and see, come and see, there are high-grade Yin Gathering Talismans here, which can gather Yin Qi and make your soul more powerful."

"Walk by, don't miss it, I have Maoshan Zhu Youke's exorcism here, which is suitable for ghosts to get rid of evil on their bodies and restore their thinking and will."

The scope of this ghost town is huge, and I walked forward for more than half an hour before I arrived at the destination of the Taoist. This is a place similar to the pedestrian street in our city, and when you walk in, you find that it is full of all kinds of small vendors, setting up stalls, shouting and buying and selling on the side of the street, but they sell very strange things, most of them are charms and seals. Even so, it's quite lively, with ghosts walking around.

Looking at this bustling scene, I felt as if I had walked into the middle of the city, and if it weren't for the fact that there was no sun in the sky, and it was gloomy everywhere, I would have thought that I had returned to the yang world and was strolling through the streets.

"They're actually in business?" I asked curiously.

"What's so strange about this, this is the famous Yangjian Street in the ghost city, and most of the people shouting here are some people in the Yangjian who know how to exorcise ghosts out of their bodies and come here through the two worlds to exchange items and experiences. Here, they can exchange items as long as their souls are out of the body, but in the yang world, they have to travel hundreds or thousands of miles in person, and decide which is better and which is bad. "The Taoist chief seems to be very famous here, and a few souls came up to him, and they all greeted the Taoist chief, "There are more people in the yang world here, so it looks like a prosperous appearance, in fact, this ghost town is very dilapidated, and it is very chaotic, even I, I don't dare to wander around inside the ghost town." The area we are in now is the outer city of the ghost city, and in the inner city, only real ghosts and extremely powerful ghosts are eligible to stay. Got it? ”

"Cuttlefish Dao Chief, have you come to buy goods again?" There was a burly-looking middle-aged man in front of him, and after this man saw the Taoist, he bowed respectfully and said, "Your Fish Sect is really a talented person, there was Cheng Dongqing before, and now Li Lao is back in the rivers and lakes, I am afraid that Zhang Daoling and Zhang Tianshi's limelight will be suppressed by your Fish Sect in this era." ”

"Haha." The cuttlefish Taoist seemed to be very happy, and said with a smile, "It's serious, it's serious, Zhang Tianshi is the founder of Taoism, who can shake his status in Taoism?" However, this time, Li Lao presided over the Nanzong Immortal Festival, and he really needed to buy a lot of things. When the Nanzong Immortal Festival opens, Wang Daochang must come to watch. ”

"Of course, a once-in-a-millennium holy sacrifice, if I miss it, I'm afraid I'll regret it for the rest of my life, haha." Wang Daochang said with a smile.
