Chapter 4 Troubled times, many talents

In the front hall of the ghost hall, there are only a few windows on the wall, and the sun is stingy in a few corners of the front hall, there are already nearly 100 people waiting here, even if the light is very weak, you can still see the look on their faces, or anxious, or excited, more uneasy...

"Come here, see how you all die!"

A loud voice came, and the short and fat old man pointed at the crowd and scolded them, as if they owed him money. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Everyone stepped forward slowly, and didn't say anything, after all, these two old men were from the government, and besides, the spears in their hands were not burning sticks.

The stingy ghost old man raised his head slightly, took a deep breath and said, "You go to the Nightmare Pool in turn to wash your hands and faces, especially your ears, and after washing, enter the ghost hall and sit down with your eyes closed." ”

Before the stingy old man finished speaking, the old man of the cash cabinet had already walked to the edge of a pool in the front hall, "Come here, pay the money first, and then wash your face, one ghost silver coin per person, one by one!"

"We have to pay again, why don't we pay!"

"Yes, we won't pay it! This ghost hall is not yours in the first place, why does the government repeatedly ask us to pay the money and not pay it!"

As soon as I heard that some people were unwilling to pay the money, some scolded secretly, and some directly refuted loudly.

"If you don't pay, if you don't pay, you will go out!"

The short and fat old man's expression immediately changed, and he wrenched his spear and aimed it at these shouting people.

"Hey, I'd better hand it over..."

"yes, who made them government people..."

There is no shortage of strongmen here, but they don't dare to do anything with this short and fat old man, once they are angered, it is against the government, at that time, there is no need for the government to do it, the government only needs to set a price, and those bounty hunters are enough for them.

What is a bounty hunter, they are not loyal to the government, they are not sincere to the strongman, they are the people of money, the so-called take people's money, eliminate disasters for others, in order to achieve the goal, unscrupulous means, it can be regarded as the existence of both good and evil.

Let's talk about the nightmare pool, the water of this pond is clear, there are two more fish in the pool, one green and one red, its shape is like a fish, but a wing is born, this fish has one eye and one wing, called to kill the Mengyu, it is rumored that this fish is a female and a male, and the wings can go to the blue sky, turn into a bird, known as the red green winged bird, the descendants take the homophonic infatuation than the winged bird. And everyone cleans in this Nightmare Pool, one is to respect all the ghosts, the other is the so-called washing lead, starting from a new beginning, and the third is to be able to see the ghosts and gods only by wetting their eyes with the water of the Nightmare Pool.

The water in this pool is very clear and cold, and the soak on the face immediately makes people feel refreshed, like a newborn baby, which can make them feel unprecedented freedom.

The stocky old man stood in the doorway, and from his smiling face, everyone knew that he was going to collect money again.

"A ghost silver coin!"

Everyone gritted their teeth, and they had greeted this old man who regarded money as his life countless times in their hearts. The short and fat old man watched the ghost silver coins enter his pocket, and his eyes were glowing.

"You go in and sit down in front of the Jizo King Bodhisattva with your eyes closed, and if there is a ghost who admits it, you will know about it, and come out and register after becoming a ghost protector..."

The short and fat old man was in a good mood, and his eyes narrowed into a slit as he looked at his bulging pockets.

After everyone entered, the ghost hall was empty, the ground was made of bluestone, there were strange beast patterns, there were some red stones on all sides, which were exceptionally smooth, and the red stones were clean and spotless, but they made people feel jealous, looking at the dark place where they couldn't see the end at a glance, everyone closed their eyes and sat down one after another.

A ghost like a big Buddha appeared in everyone's minds, this ghost stood on the lotus platform, holding a staff, wearing a red checkered robe, and a kind face, which was very different from the ghosts that people say.

This big Buddha-like ghost is the king of the earth Bodhisattva, people are tall, short, fat and thin, ghosts are also different, this king of the earth is the highest level of ghosts - heavenly ghosts, under it there are ten halls of Yama called human ghosts, after the king of the earth stands ten people, closed eyes are considerable, after ten people there are three hundred and sixty ghosts, starting from the ghosts, the appearance is different, black and white impermanence, bull head and horse face, life and death book, judge pen, the other side of the flower, Meng Jiangnu and so on are all listed as ghosts, and then there are 3,600 ghosts, such ghosts are extremely difficult to control, and most of these ghosts are ferocious, such as hungry ghosts, heart-eating ghosts, brain-eating ghosts, copper dogs, snake feeding ghosts, etc. are all more vicious ghosts, but the so-called ghost guards are people and ghosts, people's hearts are righteous, and no matter how vicious the ghosts are, they will be used in the right place, if people are evil, ghosts will also become evil. In the end, there are 36,000 little ghosts, carved on the red walls around them, many of these ghosts cannot give people power, such as sloppy ghosts, happy ghosts, etc., and even some will backfire, such as tuberculosis ghosts, unlucky ghosts... Of course, there is no shortage of useful existences, such as a steamed bun ghost, after becoming a ghost keeper of this kind of ghost, just making steamed buns every day can solve the food and clothing of dozens of people. In short, there are a total of 30,971 ghosts in the Ghost Temple, each with its own magical powers.

The stingy ghost old man and the old man of the cash cabinet are waiting outside the door of the ghost hall, and every time someone becomes a ghost master, they have to register, which is also a means of the government, first, to facilitate the recruitment of talents, and secondly, in case these ghost ghosts are against the government, the government can also know their ability.

A small table with a pen and a book on it, and a small mirror, which is just an ordinary mirror, and it is only after soaking in the Nightmare Pool that you can tell if it is a ghost hunter. People came out one after another, and the two old men carefully watched the mirror. Most people don't get the recognition of ghosts.

"Hey, young man, come and register!" the short and fat old man shouted in a rare and cordial voice, because in the Luo Yu world, every ghost hunter deserves to be respected.

"Chicken leg ghost, is the young man willing to join the army?" The short and fat old man looked at the young man's heart ghost in the mirror and nodded slightly, if such a person joined the army, then the chicken legs produced every day were enough to feed a regiment.

"No need!" the young man said politely, but he secretly scolded in his heart: "I'm not stupid, with this chicken leg ghost, how good it is for me to rent a shop and sell chicken legs, I won't get rich in a few years, and I will also join the fart army, and I am bitter and angry." ”

After the young man registered, there were already seven or eight people lined up behind him to register, some of them joined the army, and some of them were useless ghosts, so they had to go back and continue farming.

"Sick ghost, what an unlucky guy..."The tall and thin old man shook his head to register the person, who was originally a good person, but now he has become a sick ghost and a ghost hunter, and he has been sick for many years, how can this not be a pain?

"Oh my God, the devil, the mourning stick!"

"Little girl, if you are willing to join the army, the two of us can call the shots and give you the rank of major directly!"

The tall and thin old man stood up excitedly, the ghost protector who can control the ghosts, which one is not a figure who alarms the party, the government will naturally win it at all costs.

This young woman is about her early twenties, and her smile is very sweet, but tears can't stop flowing, maybe it has something to do with her heart, "I don't want to join the government, I want to go up the mountain to be a bandit, establish my own strongman group, how free!"

The tall and thin old man frowned, "Little girl, do you want to think about it again, or the rank of lieutenant colonel?"

"I don't want it!"

When the young woman finished speaking, she laughed and wept and walked away.

At this time, the short and fat old man suddenly picked up the small mirror and looked at a strong man in front of him, and in an instant, the short and fat old man was so surprised that his eyes almost fell to the ground.

"Young man, why don't you register, are you interested in joining the army, with your talent, it won't take long to become a lieutenant general..."

"Get out of here, Lao Tzu is a strong man!"

The strongman man is very arrogant.

"Young man, even if you get the recognition of the ghost, you shouldn't be so blind!" the tall and thin old man hurried over, clutching the spear in his hand.

"Hahaha, Lao Tzu now has this equal king's heart ghost, and he will be afraid of you, which angers me to be careful Lao Tzu kills the Holy Land!" The strongman man was very manic, and he didn't take these two old men in his eyes at all.

"King Equality, is what he said true?" the tall and thin old man was also surprised. The stocky old man nodded.

King of Equality, one of the ten kings of Hades, is a human ghost, in charge of the iron net Abi Great Hell, and there are few ghost protectors in the whole Luoyu world, such ghost resistors, as long as they are given time, they will definitely stand at the top of the world in the future.

"Hahaha, two old things, remember, Lao Tzu called Jiedong, let the old guys in the Holy Land wash their necks and wait!" The strong man's nostrils were upward, and no one paid attention to him.

"Young man, the Holy Land is not something that a milky kid like you can comment on!"

"Boom, boom"

The words landed, and the two old men fired at the same time.

Suddenly, an old man's phantom appeared behind the strongman man, with a long mane and beard, a square crown on his head, a robe, his hands in his sleeves, and a flute board in his arms. The strongman man was dumbfounded, and in an instant, the two bullets stopped and fell to the ground, this is the strength of humans and ghosts.

"Saha, with this equal king, I will rule the world!" The strongman man took off the strongman clothes on his upper body and fell under his feet, and at this moment, he also made up his mind.

"Stingy ghost, I think it's necessary to tell the Holy Land that there are more and more geniuses, a ghost, a ghost!" the short and fat old man sighed as he looked at the back of the strongman man in the distance.

"It's time to say that troubled times are coming..."
