Chapter 138, Soul Hunting in the Underworld (5)
Previously, when that Gu Zhenren said that he often traveled back and forth between the Ghost Market of the Underworld, the Human Market, the Forbidden Sea Market, and the Heavenly Court Immortal Market, Yang Qi concluded that this Dao Chang was not an idle person. After seeing the wonder of Gu Zhenren's sleepy Gu worm, he was even more in awe of this Dao master. Now that Gu Zhenren said that he wanted to go to the underworld with him, it would definitely turn the underworld upside down.
Yang Qi hurriedly clapped his hands and said with a smile:
"In this way, Yang Qi first thanked the Taoist chief for the Tang Dynasty Weiguo Gong and Maoshan Jia Wuqing, as long as the Taoist chief can help me settle the matter of Mrs. Hongfu, I will definitely thank you. ”
Gu Zhenren said that the Duke of Wei Guo and the Red Whisk Girl and his wife fought in the south and the north, and they were invincible, so that the world was settled and the people were happy. He can help the husband and wife reunite today, and it can be regarded as accumulating some yin virtue for himself, where do you need anything to thank or not.
Yang Qi asked the chief again, what should he do next? The Gu Zhenren pondered for a moment and said:
"In the future, I will still have to walk around this ghost market in this underworld, so naturally I can't make too much noise, so as not to expose my identity. It's not as good as this, there has always been a prevalence of fighting insects among the upper echelons of the prefecture, and many judges are my frequent customers, and they often come to the ghost market to buy some fierce Gu worms to gamble. Just before you enter the room, you can change mosquitoes, which shows that you are proficient in those transformation techniques. ”
"After a while, you will become a rare Gu worm, and I will take you to sell near the palace of the king of Yama, which will naturally attract the attention of those ghost envoys, and then we will see the opportunity to act again. ”
Yang Qi was overjoyed when he heard this, and smiled at the long way:
"Dao Chang is really a good dealer!"
Gu Zhenren was stunned, how could he say this?
The thief sneered:
"You want me to turn into that rare Gu worm, and lure those bull heads and horses to a secluded place, and raise the knife in my hand!
Gu Zhenren couldn't cry or laugh, knocked the thief with a whisk, and scolded:
"I don't know what books you used to read! There are some ghost ideas in your head! If you kill all the shadows in the underworld. You are going to ask for those souls of the sun in the world?"
Yang Qi was a little disappointed and said:
"That's unkillable? It's a pity that their yin crystal, I don't know what color, that grade. ”
It turned out that he was still thinking about collecting yin crystals, and those ghosts in the underworld suddenly felt a pain in their heads, and the yin crystals were about to crack. It scared the hearts that had been silent for a long time jumped.
Gu Zhenren wiped his sweat and muttered in his heart, I don't know if it was right to help this thief.
Let's say that the bull head and horse face and other yin errands, after telling the magistrate Cui Jue of the underworld that the soul of the red whisk girl was hijacked, the judge Cui scolded them and spurted them with blood, but these yin errands are all capable of the underworld, and they can't really be held accountable according to the rules. Now the main thing is to find the fleeing ghost and catch the robber.
A few yin chasers surrounded the judge and said that he was in the restaurant. If you are judged, this will definitely not happen, and please judge you to show your power again and help your subordinates and others.
After the judge reprimanded the yin, he naturally had to give a step down, and the yincha patted the horse's whiskers, so he also gave a favor to the situation, and used the soul hook pen in his hand to point out the yin, and scolded twice. Let them stand by before the temple.
It is said that it is normal to lose three or two ghosts, and the yin people occasionally take the initiative to "lose" a few good-looking female ghosts. Or a fat guy or something, that's nothing. Only those who are more famous in the world, then they can't make any mistakes casually, otherwise it will be very troublesome to deal with.
I encountered trouble today, and the yin errands who were on standby in front of the palace were naturally unhappy. Nine people in a pile, one person trembling, a pile of nine is the bull-headed horse-faced, black and white impermanence, nocturnal wandering god. and the leopard tail, beak, gills, and wasps who are in charge of the souls of beasts, birds, fish, and insects, and the trembling one person is the one-horned ghost king who lost his mace. The nine of them sat on the steps and chatted, and the ghost king squatted alone and cried with a sad face. He was born with big hands and feet, and he never knew what shoes were, so he was really bored. I rubbed the dirt in my feet with my hands, and I didn't do much effort, so I rubbed more than a dozen mud balls.
Suddenly, there was a shout.
"A flower, a leaf, a world, a day, a night, a spring and autumn.
Yesterday was a worm and now a butterfly, if you don't turn a butterfly, you will turn into a dragon. ”
Why is it a shouting voice? Because this song is Gu Zhenren's exclusive signboard, he is a bug seller, and naturally he will be blown all over the sky.
When the one-horned ghost king saw that the Gu real person had arrived, he finally found something to do. He got up and walked to the chief, but he didn't forget the mud balls he had just rubbed, grabbed them in his hand and rubbed them, and shouted:
"Dao Chief, are you selling insects again?"
"Oh. It's the ghost king, hey, take your hands away! What smell is so rushing! Don't smoke my baby!"
The ghost king hid his hand behind him and said with an embarrassed smile:
"Hehe, Dao Chief, what kind of treasure are you selling?
Gu Zhenren deliberately raised his voice and said:
"What I brought today is a worm...... King...... , does the king of insects know?"
The ghost king looked worshipful, and the ghost kings in the distance heard it, and they all came over to see what the "insect king" looked like.
Gu Zhenren saw that the yin was all around, and he was secretly happy in his heart, so he turned his palm over and showed the insect king.
A few people looked at it and immediately laughed. It turns out that what kind of insect king is in the hand of the Taoist chief, it is clearly a skinny caterpillar, and there is nothing inconspicuous.
It's good that the black impermanence in the yin doesn't smile, but the laughter is even more creepy. He reached out and touched a fat corpse worm, and said with a strange smile:
"Dao Chief, I thought it was some kind of insect king, it turned out to be this kind of goods. I'm not afraid to smash your signboard, look at my corpse worm, it's much stronger than your bug. ”
The cow head also touched a cow lice, and said with a smug smile:
"Your corpse worm can't do it, look at my cow lice, but I raised it with my own blood, if you say the insect king, it must be it!"
The dungeon fights are popular, and these inconsistencies naturally boast about how good their fighting insects are. Ma Mian said how his followers were good at retreating into advance, and the wasp Yin Shuai, who controlled the insects, boasted that he was the real king of insects.
A few handsome men, you say a word, where can you separate the superior? Now agree to have a competition to determine the real insect king. Each person took out ten taels of gold (the hard currency of the Three Realms) and piled them together as a stake.
This time the gamble, the ghosts made it so that they didn't crowd out the one-horned ghost king, and beckoned him to come and gamble. The ghost king shook his head and said:
"Hey, don't mention it, I was taken away by that villain (he didn't say anything). I went crazy and didn't pay attention to trampling the fighting insects to death......"
At this time, Gu Zhenren shouted very in time:
"Worm King...... Sell the Worm King!"
The one-horned ghost king's eyes lit up, isn't there a bug here?
He ran to Gu Zhenren again, and said with a sincere smile:
"Real people, on credit...... How about a credit?"
"My insect king is very precious, can you afford it?"
The one-horned ghost king sighed and was about to leave. Gu Zhenren lowered his voice and said to him:
"Hey, it's also me who fell in love with the ghost king, thanks to you taking care of my business for many years, this insect king will lend you for use. , but you have to promise me one thing. ”
The ghost king was overjoyed, and he was busy asking what was the matter? Gu Zhenren said:
"If this insect king wins the competition, you have to dedicate it to Cui Juye for me, and help me say a few kind words, so that I can open a shop in the ghost market and avoid the pain of wind and snow. ”
The one-horned ghost king said in a loud voice, if you really win the competition, I will help you transfer it.
Gu Zhenren put the little insect in the palm of the ghost king's hand and floated away. The bug left behind seemed to have been stimulated by something, and suddenly became extremely active, trying to escape the clutches of the ghost king. The ghost king hurriedly put his hands together, couldn't close his mouth happily, and tried to compete with a few yincha. He doesn't want to lose and have no money, anyway, he has rough skin and thick meat, so it's a big deal to take another beating.
This fighting insects in the underworld is different from the fighting cocks and crickets in the world, not one-on-one alone, but taking a large pot and putting the fighting insects in it to fight, and the final winner is naturally the king of insects.
Several yin cha were already ready, they all put the fighting insects in the basin, and gently pressed the back of the fighting insects with one finger, but as long as they released their fingers, the fighting insects would start to fight. The handsome leopard tail of the impatient beast control beast shouted to the ghost king:
"I said old ghost, hurry up and bring your 'Worm King', our fighting insects are dying of hunger. ”
All the yin cha laughed, the little insect that Gu Zhenren gave to the ghost king had already been seen by them, and such a small insect naturally had to make Chinese food for other fighting insects.
The ghost king put his hands in front of the basin, opened his palms and saw that the small insects in the dozen or so mud balls writhed slightly, but they were stained with a lot of dirt. The ghost king gently pinched the insect with his fingers, and the insect began to writhe again, okay, the ghost king thought to himself, it doesn't matter if he wins or loses, if the top ten handsome fighting insects don't participate in the competition, wouldn't it be faceless to spread it?
He put the little insect into the basin, and as soon as the fingers of all the yin were loosened, those fighting insects rushed towards the little insect of the ghost king, opening their teeth and dancing their claws, menacing, and biting around the little insects. The ghost king's heart that has been silent for many years is about to break, hey, poor little worm, go all the way, die early and be reincarnated.
Suddenly, all those cow lice, dragon crickets, and fart insects and so on, they all turned over and struggled a few times, but they didn't move. The little worm of the ghost king is still writhing, which is really strange. The ghost envoys were dumbfounded, and the ghost king was overjoyed, scooped up the gold in the field, twisted the small insect with one hand, and ran quickly to the Yama Palace.
Just grabbed the gold and dropped the mud balls in his hand, and the ghost envoys saw that they were the same color as the crumbs on the little worm's body, so they grabbed the mud balls and smelled them, almost not vomiting blood. The demon envoys shouted loudly:
"Damn old ghost, the insect competition was poisoned, and this account will be settled with you sooner or later!"
Where can the ghost king hear it, he ran to Cui Juye in one breath, put the little insect on the table, and smirked:
"Judge, this is a worm king, the Gu real person entrusted me to give it to you, he wants to open a shop in the ghost market. ”
The ghost king thought for a while, took out ten taels of gold, put them on the table, and said:
"That's the long deposit. (To be continued.) )
