At the food stall in front of Hong Shenglian's old brothel, Yang Cheng ordered several servings of roast meat and rice, and was chatting and eating with Gui Laowen.
The original food stall owner had long since retired, and now his son runs the stall, and the food tastes exactly the same.
It was here that Yang Cheng killed the Vietnamese tiger Nguyen Phung, and it was here that he ate his first meal and met Gui Laowen.
"There are far fewer of these open-air food stalls in Hong Kong now, so it's rare to still be able to taste the flavors from twenty years ago here."
Old Ghost Wen complained, "Because it doesn't make money. And do you really think that people are so sentimental that they have to run a food stall here?"
He stays here because I'm used to the taste of this food, and that's why I pay him a salary every month.
This guy's practically become my Hong Sheng Lian's personal chef; he earns as much as a big hotel chef every month."
Yang Cheng looked at Gui Laowen with a slightly speechless expression. This guy was quite creative.
With no one around, having been cleared out by Ghost Old Wen, even the food stall owner had left, Yang Cheng released the Ghost Taoist priest to ask which ghosts should be eliminated in the next round.
Although Yang Cheng had warned him, Gui Laowen was still somewhat horrified to suddenly see a withered human head appear in front of him.
After looking him over for a moment, Old Man Gui carefully poked the Taoist priest's head with the wine bottle: "Hey, this guy is amazing. Does he not need to eat if he only has a head?"
The Taoist priest, his face contorted with rage, roared, "You worthless bastard, get lost and don't touch me!"
"Hey, you've got quite a temper, and your head's pretty round too."
This is the first time I've realized you can actually kick a head like a ball.
Yang Cheng said to Gui Laowen, "Alright, stop fooling around. I still have some use for this guy."
As he spoke, Yang Cheng took out the Yin Vein Spirit Stones he had collected, the largest of which was as big as a palm. It was the Yin Vein Spirit Stone he obtained after killing Bosile.
"Are these Yin Vein Spirit Stones enough for one sacrifice to find one of the Four Ghost Kings?"
The Taoist priest glanced at it and said, "It's still a bit lacking. We just need to deal with another ghost similar to Bosile."
"Do you have any similar ghosts you can sell?"
The ghostly Taoist priest looked aggrieved and said, "My lord, I am not a ghost. I used to work in a proper Taoist temple when I was alive."
How can this be considered betrayal? It can only be said that after meeting you, sir, I abandoned darkness and embraced the light, and went to eliminate those evil spirits that plague the world.
Yang Cheng waved his hand and said, "Alright, I know you're not a traitor. Tell me which ghosts can be eliminated."
The Taoist priest then perked up and said, "There is a tunnel in Tseung Kwan O. During the construction of the tunnel, various machines frequently broke down, and there were constant accidents such as collapses."
That place is also a gathering place of yin energy, with a small ghost realm hidden below. So it's normal for all sorts of evil spirits to gather there and for things to go wrong.
The tunnel was originally built by those British devils, but when the project couldn't be completed and their company's stock price plummeted, they turned to the Feng Shui Masters Association for help.
Back then, it was those guys from the Feng Shui Masters Association who took action, using the method of driving live stakes to suppress the ghost realm, allowing the tunnel to be opened to traffic smoothly.
However, the method of "staking a living stake" is against the natural order. It might be fine under normal circumstances, but in this era of the resurgence of yin energy, it might give birth to some powerful ghost.
However, even if the ghost in this tunnel is still in the process of being formed, its level should not be too high. It has not yet fully formed and is relatively easy to deal with.
"My lord, this is the perfect time for you to seize the Yin Vein Spirit Stone."
Just then, a sound of crying suddenly came from all around.
The cries were faint and mournful, as if they seeped into people's hearts, making their noses tingle involuntarily.
Old Wen was already in tears, his voice trembling with sobs as he said, "Which star should I choose! Why did I suddenly think of my dead father whom I've never even met?"
Yang Cheng's expression changed slightly.
The crying was eroding and suppressing his mental strength, and it was very strange and sinister.
The divine power manipulated the blood, transforming it into exorcising talismans that were scattered around. Instantly, golden light exploded, blocking the sound from entering.
At the end of the long street, a woman dressed in white mourning clothes walked slowly, her face filled with sorrow and grief, crying as she went.
But as her head slowly turned, her long hair was lifted, revealing another face on the other side, with a strange smile.
On the other side, a man with a stooped and thin build, but who was over two meters tall, came carrying a mourning stick.
Behind him followed a boy and a girl, but both of them were deathly pale, like paper figures used in funerals.
An old man jumped down from the rooftop next to them, holding a banner for summoning souls, and shouted in a strange, hoarse voice: "The dead go on their way, the living must avoid them!"
Today, I've been entrusted to send Mr. Yang on his final journey!
The Taoist priest's expression immediately changed, and he hurriedly said, "My lord, please be careful! They are from the Underworld Sect!"
They have been handling funerals and burials for generations, earning money from the dead. Living a life-and-death existence, they have long since become half-human and half-ghost, and no one wants to deal with these monsters.
Later, as people stopped burying their dead and started cremating, the Underworld gradually declined, leaving only a few people.
However, these guys are all incredibly strange and bizarre, far more terrifying than any vengeful ghost!
Yang Cheng squinted and said to Gui Laowen and the Taoist priest, "Stay within the range of the talisman and don't go out."
The Ghost King Seal appeared before Yang Cheng, transforming into the Soul-Severing Spear, whose gloomy and malevolent aura soared into the sky, perfectly complementing Yang Cheng's astonishing malevolent aura.
"Send me on my way? With just a few of you inhuman freaks?"
