Chapter 535 Eighteen Disasters
Jiang Ci was in no hurry to let him go, and asked with a smile: "Let me ask you, who is the current leader of Ghost Gate?"
"Master... I don't have the honor to meet you." The big-faced ghost cried with a sad face: "Sister! Sister! Can you put out the fire first? My legs!"
"I asked you what your sect leader's name is."
The big-faced ghost shook his head: "I don't know who the sect master is, but I know that Master Guimei is one of the four guardians under the sect master... This area is under the jurisdiction of Master Guimei. Sister, can you go ask her?"
Qingfeng said: "He may really not know who the sect leader is, so he can go see the ghost first."
Jiang Ci casually peeled off the black talisman.
The big-faced ghost had been burned to the point that only his upper body was left floating in the air. He looked at her with resentment, with a look of pain on his face. He took out a token and gave it to her, "This is the entry token to the main city managed by Lord Ghost. Just take this with you."
Jiang Ci took the order to enter the city but did not move.
The big-faced ghost frowned: "Sister, what else do you want to do? Kill me? I am the subordinate of Master Ghost. If you kill me, she will definitely not let you enter the ghost gate!"
Qing Feng sneered: "You think you are really important."
Jiang Ci said calmly: "I know there is a teleportation array, open it and send us there."
The big-faced ghost originally wanted to summon evil ghosts to attack them on the way, but he was secretly shocked when he heard this.
How did this damn girl know that he had a teleportation array here?
"What teleportation array? I've never heard of it!" The big-faced ghost denied it flatly.
Jiang Ci shook the black talisman, and it had a huge deterrent effect.
The big-faced ghost was so angry that he gritted his teeth and had no choice but to take the two of them to the teleportation array.
"Are you really new here?" He couldn't help but feel suspicious. "Every new ghost has no idea about Beiyuan. How come you are so familiar with it, like you are at home?"
Jiang Ci smiled but said nothing.
Ghost gates are scattered throughout Beiyuan. In order to facilitate the movement of her disciples, she set up teleportation arrays in many places in Beiyuan.
The teleportation array is interconnected. Once you go to the main city controlled by ghosts, you can use the teleportation array to go directly to the ghost gate’s base camp.
The big-faced ghost opened a door, and there was only a wall behind it.
Qingfeng was half-believing and half-doubting, "The teleportation array, is this it?"
He didn't feel any fluctuation of spiritual energy.
Jiang Ci directly pulled his hand and pushed him towards the wall.
When Qingfeng thought they were going to get hit on the head, the two of them went straight through the wall.
"How do you know the kid didn't lie to us?" Qingfeng looked surprised.
Jiang Ci smiled and said, "He's afraid of being reduced to ashes, so there's no need to lie anymore."
She looked around and saw that they had arrived in the main city area.
This is a larger and more magnificent ghost town, more than a hundred times larger than the ancient town ruled by the big-faced ghost, and more prosperous, with lights and decorations everywhere. Of course, the hanging red lanterns are hollowed-out human head lanterns, with a strange red light emitting from the two empty eyes, hanging from the beginning to the end of the street.
There was a team beating drums and performing lion dances on the street. Jiang Ci took a look and recognized that the drum was made of human skin, and the lion they were performing was not an auspicious one, but a pale white lion.
There is also an evil ghost selling candied haws, and the "candied haws" are made of eyeballs.
Evil spirits of all shapes and sizes roam the streets, making the scene extremely lively.
Qingfeng looked disgusted, "Although I have heard of the ghost world before, I never thought it would be so disgusting when I saw it with my own eyes."
"What do you think?" Jiang Ci said with a smile, "Ghosts are the embodiment of eighteen kinds of disasters. They are the lowest level of existence in the world."
"Eighteen kinds of disasters?"
"Poverty, decline, sorrow, shame, stench, disaster, misery, pain, death from illness, loneliness, premature death, lewdness, delusion, bad luck, disease, misfortune, suffering, and demonic possession."
Jiang Ci said: "Eighteen kinds of disasters are in one person, so living people should not get close to ghosts, or they will be infected by the bad luck of ghosts and become unlucky."
"Most of the ghosts in Beiyuan were rejected by the underworld. They are ghosts without household registration and can only become lonely ghosts wandering in the world."
"From another perspective, they can also be considered a kind of immortality."
"In the endless years, you must always find something to do to kill the boring time."
Qingfeng looked at her thoughtfully: "You seem to know a lot about ghosts?"
"If you don't know, you'd think you've been a wandering ghost for a long time."
Jiang Ci smiled and didn't explain further.
Before reporting to the underworld, she did remain a wandering ghost for a long time after her death.
Until Hades took her to the underworld, where she was punished for many crimes and thrown into hell.
Because hell couldn't do anything to her, she learned many skills to pass the boring days.
As the saying goes, "more skills are better than less", every time she reincarnates, she leaves behind a legendary alias.
"New here? Do you have a place to stay?"
As the two were walking towards the city, a little devil with a pointed chin and monkey face stopped them and asked them with a smile.
Qingfeng asked with interest, "What's wrong with the newcomer?"
The little ghost had an evil look in his eyes, "It's been a long time since we've seen such a handsome man here. You're very good-looking, and Master Ghost will definitely like you when he sees you."
Qingfeng: “…”
Jiang Ci suppressed his laughter and said seriously: "My big brother is indeed handsome, and he is the perfect choice for a boyfriend."
Unexpectedly, the kid sneered, "Boyfriend? You're overthinking it!"
"It's a great honor for him to be Master Guimei's favorite. He even wants to be her boyfriend. Is he worthy of that?"
Qingfeng gritted his teeth and said with a fake smile, "Really? Then lead the way. I want to see whose ancestral grave is emitting green smoke."
The little ghost looked at Jiang Ci again, "You look ordinary, you can be a fire-making girl for Master Guimei."
This time it was Jiang Ci's turn to be speechless.
Qingfeng patted her shoulder with a gloating look, "You are not bad at making fire, girl. Don't worry, I will protect you in the future."
Although I know he is joking, that smile makes me feel that it is asking for a beating.
"Brother Xiaogui, please lead the way." Jiang Ci said politely.
The little ghost smiled and led them forward. "You two are lucky to meet me right away. If you met other ghosts, they would definitely cut you into pieces and cook you for food."
"You also eat your own kind?" Qingfeng asked.
The kid glanced at him and said, "I am surprised by what I have seen."
"Here, no one will care even if you want to eat shit."
There was a hint of murderous intent in Qingfeng's eyes.
Jiang Ci grabbed Qingfeng's arm and signaled him with his eyes.
Qingfeng looked puzzled: "Why are your eyes twitching?"
Jiang Ci's eyes widened and he gave all kinds of hints.
Qingfeng: "My face is twitching too. I'm not used to the local climate."
The little ghost walked in front and said with a smile: "Don't worry, newcomers are all like this, you will get used to it after a few days."
Jiang Ci rolled his eyes and asked directly, "Aren't we going to see ghosts? Why are you taking us to a remote place?"
