The young general and Li Mao were equally curious, both belonging to the type of "men are boys until they die".
As he spoke, he stared with dead fish eyes and walked up to the "walking corpse" he had just stabbed to death, squatted down and examined it carefully.
One of the newly summoned ghost messengers initially wanted to warn the young general to be careful, but then hesitated and swallowed his words.
Because no matter when or what, whenever you encounter the young general, you should be wary of him.
In short, the young general is always the greatest danger and variable.
Just as the ghost messenger had predicted, as the young general stared with his rather dim-witted eyes, a plume of black smoke suddenly rose from the corpse.
In the blink of an eye, the black smoke transformed into a skull the size of a washbasin, howling as it lunged at the young general.
Judging from his appearance, he seemed poised to swallow the young general whole.
"Holy crap, an Earthly Fiend?!"
The young general was slightly surprised, then became excited.
"Oh my god, this is a new breed! Let's catch it and take it home to raise!"
As they spoke, they stretched out their little hands, which were filthy from playing in the mud and pee, and boldly reached out to grab the "skull".
He looked like an ignorant child, foolishly reaching out his little hand to touch a hideous demon.
However, under the seemingly harmless but dirty hand of this "Earthly Fiend," there was no power to resist whatsoever.
It shrank instantly and was firmly held in my hand, just like an ordinary person squashing it.
"Hahaha, look! We've caught him!"
"Wow, this thing is quite energetic, it's flapping its wings vigorously!"
As the young general spoke, he carefully placed the Earthly Fiend into the "Doraemon basket" that was pasted on his stomach.
"You'd better take good care of yourself when you get back. Don't end up like Quantum's Sparrow Soul, who was found by Little Chirp and the young Bald Group and fed random things, almost dying from it."
"Oh, by the way, we men don't know what the Earthly Fiends like to eat, or if they like to eat shit..."
Hearing the young general's words, the ghost messengers collectively bowed their heads in silent mourning—a moment of silence for the pitiful Earthly Fiends.
They knew that from now on, this once powerful and unruly Earthly Fiend would be unable to live or die.
Or rather, all you can do is beg for "shit"...
The earliest record of the Earthly Fiends can be found in the "Veritable Records of Emperor Xuan" from the Southern Song Dynasty.
According to Taoist theory, everything is composed of two aspects, Yin and Yang, and the Earthly Fiends are the "filthy" energy of the dragon vein.
Of course, dragon veins are extremely strong and yang, so the "filthy energy" they produce is very little and cannot be compared with other "filthy energy".
In short, it is an extremely special existence.
Once these "filthy energies" accumulate to a certain degree, they can develop sentience. If they are not dispelled by a master, they will eventually grow into evil tyrants.
There is also a saying that in ancient times, if the emperor did not cultivate virtue, the dragon vein that nourished the dynasty would give rise to "earthly evil spirits".
Once an Earthly Fiend attaches itself to a person with a special destiny, it will cause a large-scale rebellion and destroy the foundation of the ruler.
For example, the "Chen Sheng and Wu Guang Uprising" and the "Li Zicheng Uprising".
In conclusion, this originally promising Earthly Fiend was truly doomed to misfortune when he encountered our young general.
From now on, forget about a bright future; it's all bleak...
The young general was clearly overjoyed after subduing the Earthly Fiends. He disregarded everything else and immediately rode off on his big dog, acting like a bully in his own backyard.
Clearly, they were in a hurry to go home and play... and went to feed the Earthly Fiends.
"Um, we just tried to save him but we can't."
“We’re also worried that if we keep bleeding people indiscriminately, people will die... If a good person dies, we’ll feel guilty for the rest of our lives.”
"That's settled then, you guys figure it out yourselves."
"Oh, by the way, until Quantum and the others come up with a way to rescue them, the guys coming down here aren't allowed to leave!"
Watching the young general's disappearing figure, the summoned ghost messengers looked on with a mixture of "grief and indignation" and helplessness.
If anyone else dared to order them around like that, treating them like servants, the ghost guards would fight to the death even if they couldn't beat them!
The majesty of the underworld must not be desecrated!
But the other party was a young general... In front of the young general, the majesty of the underworld meant nothing!
In the minds of the ghost messengers, the young general was the person they least wanted to offend, just like the song they adapted themselves sang.
"The young general is supreme in both the Yin and Yang realms; if he wants you to be born, you are born; if Yama (the King of Hell) wants you to die at midnight, the young general says no, and that's final..."
Don't believe me?!
Do you still remember back then?
Upon hearing the news that the young general was about to die and return, the four judges and ten underworld generals were all eager to be reincarnated, abandoning their positions as important officials in the underworld.
Moreover, if it weren't for the Ten Kings of Hell jointly issuing an edict forbidding resignation and reincarnation, the children of the aforementioned fourteen individuals would already be grown up and running errands!
Good heavens, since ancient times, there have only been things that scare people to death, who has ever heard of scaring a ghost back to life?
The young general did just that!
Just as the ghost messengers were filled with anger, fear, grief, and indignation, one of the clever ones suddenly spoke up.
"I say to my colleagues, I think we don't need to do this."
"Think about it another way, isn't this a kind of 'official' vacation... a business trip?"
"We used to be begging for opportunities like this, right?!"
The saying goes, "A change of perspective can change the world." Upon hearing this, the other ghost messengers were taken aback at first, then nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, yes, that's exactly it!"
