Chapter 20: Toll Money
Mass graves.
Between the withered grass and yellow mud, like copper coins, the yellow paper money that looks relatively new is fluttering in the wind, as if telling that there has been a funeral procession passing by in recent days.
But in Lin Tianze's alternative vision as A Piao, it is a different picture.
Each piece of paper money emitted a pale yellow glow, and next to these yellow paper money, there were several illusory humanoid ghosts beating and tearing each other.
It is they who are crazy about grabbing food like hungry dogs, so that these yellow paper money will flutter in the wind.
And those immovable yellow paper money are competing for victory and defeat, with a strong phantom, pressing down the contenders, lying on them to absorb the incense belief placed on them.
Of course, this is only temporary, and from time to time there are ghosts who have lost in other scramble circles, and they pounce on it to set off a new snatch.
This is also one of the reasons why Lin Tianze feels that this world is a parallel world to his previous life.
The two worlds developed similar funerary customs.
Relatives and friends of the deceased's family who help with the funeral will have one person walking in front of the funeral procession with yellow paper money.
Walk all the way, sprinkle paper money all the way, this money is called "road money", it is a toll and bridge toll that has existed in the two worlds of yin and yang since ancient times!
Parents and old people who knew how to do it in the previous family would also tell the children in the family not to step on this kind of money with their feet, so as not to get infected with bad luck and bad luck, so as not to anger the lonely ghosts on the side of the road.
"Get out, don't get in the way if you don't want to die."
Lin Tianze waved his hand, and the wooden sword that had not been withdrawn on the equipment bar exerted a double bonus of damage and knockback.
A few illusory ghost images in front of the road were knocked out of the golf ball, and they were knocked out of the way.
"Brother Lin, it's so powerful, this kind of blinding roadblocker, Brother Lin doesn't have to keep his hands."
Glancing at it, adding fuel and vinegar to the side and talking about an old gambler, Lin Tianze held the hand of the wooden sword, and couldn't help but use a little more force, so he wanted to hack him to death.
Endure! Endure! The boss of the old demon of Montenegro doesn't know the details, pretend to be normal, don't arouse his curiosity, time is on his side
While reminding himself, Lin Tianze shifted his attention to the paper money on the ground, he became a ghost, and after the first seven years, he had the problem of extreme emotional concentration, and the ghost of this world called it obsession, which belonged to the problem that all ghosts have.
Pangu opens the sky, and the sky is clear and turbid.
Yellow paper money communicates the two worlds of yin and yang, and it is inevitable that it will be infected with filth and turbidity that is not good for people.
Of course, no ghost will be afraid of this thing of filth and turbidity, because all kinds of turbidity are linked to each other to form the underworld.
For ghosts, the so-called bad luck is as normal as the dust that will be stained on the soles of shoes when people walk on the road in the yang world, and it is purely normal to fall on the active people, and those who are unfortunate enough to get it will pass in a moment.
Lin Tianze bent down and reached out to pick up the yellow paper money on the ground and put it into the system backpack, while complaining to the old gambler who came up to pick up the money together.
"Old gambler, since I joined, several brothers have been saying that brothers help each other. In vain, I still call you the sixth brother, you haven't thought about me if there is a good thing? ”
"Next time there is such a good thing to pick up money, if you don't notify me and my brothers and sisters, even in front of the boss, Lao Tzu will also remove your last two thumbs."
Nian casually called out his gold finger panel, and placed his mind on the corresponding grid for two seconds to check the newly obtained yellow paper money.
Sure enough, as a netherworld thing, it can be included in the system backpack, which also shows that this road money is recognized by the system.
Material: Yellow Paper Money
[Type: Consumables]
[Rarity: Gray]
[Use to obtain: Yellow Paper x1, Copper Coins x2]
[Crafting: Paper x1, Copper Coin (any)]
Lin Tianze took a deep breath, and looked at the thousands of yellow paper coins that spread along the road to the mass graves of the temple, not to mention thousands of yellow paper money, and suddenly his eyes flashed with golden light.
Isn't it the time to add up to a lot? What is paper on the ground, but what is money! This group of ghosts is no, they are really so fierce, and they are really picking up money.
"Brother Lin, when I left, there was almost a fight over there, go back and pick it up, or let's go over first."
"If you want to go, the benefits over there have nothing to do with me, it's still the reality in front of me."
Lin Tianze said angrily, and stepped forward, beating a few lonely souls and wild ghosts who were flying and grabbing money again, and carried out "persuasion", and put the things they were fighting for into their pockets by the way.
Materials that can be picked up without bothering to work, and if you want to give up, don't dream!
No one can stop themselves from filling their golden fingers with money, after all, they will wait for a while.
If you throw off a needle of your own, there is a great possibility that this mountain will be raised, and these cute little money will be buried with you when the time comes, where will you come back to pick it up.
As more and more yellow paper money was collected, Lin Tianze chose to use it in the system backpack.
I also found that these road money provide at most one or two copper coins, and most of them don't even give one copper coin.
This also reminded Lin Tianze that it had been thrown out for two days before this new purchase, and the incense belief attached to it had been eaten by a group of ghosts, and how much was left.
Obviously picking up money, Lin Tianze felt that he had lost a lot, and couldn't help but chuckle at it: "Delong Wangshu is really a person's inferior nature." ”
A few more times of funerals in ten miles and eight villages, there will be all that should be, and I was just picking up money as a cover.
Take the opportunity to study your own ghost art under the peep of this old gambler and the possibly existing Black Mountain Jun.
Lin Tianze asked himself, he has done an excellent job, after all, there are cameras everywhere in his previous life, and he still has some experience in this regard.
As for why there is a small problem with preventive monitoring, of course, a colleague gets off work late at night and sees no one in the parking lot, so he finds a corner to release water.
The boss's car happened to be parked next to it, and the 360-degree dash cam silently recorded everything, and then a certain comrade, a comrade who coded a key part.
High-definition drawings were posted on bulletin boards, criticizing him to flush the wheels of the factory leaders.
In order not to enjoy the social death package because of a trivial matter, Lin Tianze developed the habit of maintaining his image in public places and under the cameras that may exist.
For example, Lin Tianze put things in his backpack, which seemed to be above board and defenseless.
But behind it is a group of ghosts, and the "shortcomings" of the known ghost arts, which need to be borrowed to cast spells.
The three blessing forms of axe, wooden sword, and hoe need to be refined for a long time to refine the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth as a form, otherwise it cannot be used.
Just when Lin Tianze picked up the money and studied what special functions he had awakened.
The mass grave on the other side.
A wild cat sped through the tree, flashed away, and disappeared.
At this moment, countless smoke weaved into threads, weaving a cloth out of thin air, and then the next moment the cloth swept across like a fishing net.
Then he swept across a certain void, and the illusory cloth composed of smoke shattered in an instant, and a cat-shaped phantom figure appeared in the smoke.
"Whoosh!"
A sharp bone vertebrae emitted a faint blue light, shooting straight at the place where the wild cat was located.
The wildcat instantly jumped and disappeared in place, avoiding the bone vertebrae that fell from the sky.
"Meow!"
With the piercing meow of the cat, the wild cat in the clearing revealed its body from the air, and tried to run away, but found that it was surrounded by a group of people.
Suddenly, the back was hunched and the tail was erected, and the hair on his whole body exploded instantly, guarding against the group of ghosts that surrounded him a little bit from front to back, left and right.
