Chapter 384 The Corpses of the Earth Gods
Smart ghost, a special ghost in Chinese mythology.
To explain the existence of this kind of ghost in a way that ordinary people can understand, it is probably similar to the existence of a ghost.
In ancient times, Zhong Kui, who was known as the "God of Catching Ghosts", had five ghosts at his disposal - the clever ghost was one of them.
According to legend, the prototype of the Five Ghosts Moving Method and the Five Plague Gods in the Taoist mythology system came from the five ghosts under Zhong Kui.
"The God of Wealth and the Five Ghosts are quite consistent with the Chinese people's perception."
Li Hao, who had a dragon head and a human body, closed the third eye between his eyebrows, but muttered something in a more majestic manner.
"But a crippled Five Ghost like you is much worse than a normal God of Fortune."
"I can't taste the food I eat, I can't feel the touch of things, my soul seems to be imprisoned forever in a piece of rotten wood..."
"Unconscious and inanimate yet immortal, it's really hard for me to imagine how a normal person can avoid going crazy."
After Li Hao revealed his situation, the old man's face became even more frightened.
"The pawnshop owner who made you look like this was even more cruel..."
"Did you kill his entire family? How could he punish you in this way?"
Raising his head with difficulty, the old man struggled to speak slowly.
"Can you...set me free...?"
The voice paused briefly, and an unprecedented light of hope blossomed in the old man's originally gloomy eyes.
"I can tell you how to become the owner of this pawnshop..."
"Will you let me go free after you become the owner of the pawn shop?"
As if he was speaking with his soul, the old man's voice miraculously became much smoother.
For hundreds of years, the old man, like a rotten wood, has been waiting for this opportunity, a chance for the pawnshop to choose its owner again.
"I think I may know a little more about this pawn shop than you do."
Looking at the old man with a slightly pity look, Li Hao said this softly.
"But if you really want to seek relief, I can help you now."
As he spoke, the [Prank Doorbell] behind Li Hao slowly floated in front of the old man, and the ferocious ghost eye revealed a curious look.
"Help me! Please help me get free!"
Hearing this, the old man did not resist the pressure from Li Hao, but kowtowed decisively and said.
"I've had enough of this kind of life. I've had enough of this way of living where I don't even feel like I'm alive!"
Deprivation of physical perception is more than just the loss of taste and touch.
I couldn't taste the food, couldn't touch the objects, and didn't feel any pain in my body...
In this situation, the old man even began to doubt the fact that he was still alive.
So, in order to find the real feeling of being alive.
The old man cut his blood vessels and tore off his flesh again and again, but he sadly discovered that even "death" seemed to have become a luxury.
The most terrifying thing is that the old man knows that his condition is not right, but deep down he has lost the possibility of having emotions.
Not only are there positive emotions, but even negative emotions like despair are minimal.
Only when he thought about getting rid of this state worse than death, or when he was oppressed by a higher level of life like now, would the old man's heart be filled with some emotional ripples.
"In that case, I will grant your wish!"
With a slight sigh, Li Hao waved towards the [Prank Doorbell].
The next second, the old man's soul completely left his body and appeared in front of Li Hao in the form of a dim sphere.
Not to mention comparing it with the souls in the Mountain and Sea Realm that have been strengthened through the reincarnation system.
Even the soul of a normal creature after death is much more dazzling than the soul of the old man.
Because this soul has been stripped of most of its emotions and desires, and at the same time has lost its original destiny, it only maintains a trace of consciousness.
Even though Li Hao had anticipated such a vicious and cruel method, he couldn't help but gasp.
"You really have pawned everything you can..."
It must be admitted that Li Hao hesitated when he saw the old man's soul - how should he deal with this almost dissipated soul? After all, the old man's soul was much weaker than Li Hao imagined, and could not withstand the slightest torment.
Beep!
Just as Li Hao was hesitating, a crisp sound suddenly came from right in front of him.
Look in the direction of the sound.
The door of the third exhibition hall opened automatically, revealing the glittering light inside.
Compared with the first two exhibition halls, the light released in the third exhibition hall seems much more magical.
Just by looking at those lights, Li Hao felt an urge to make some moves.
If it were an ordinary person, he would have been tempted by the light and would have taken the initiative to throw himself into it.
"A god... even if he is just a dead god, he still possesses power over all living beings."
Without any hesitation, Li Hao walked straight towards the third exhibition hall.
Li Hao was very curious about what kind of things were hidden in the third exhibition hall as the former god of wealth.
"Huh?"
When Li Hao stepped into the third exhibition hall, his attention was immediately attracted by the huge golden coffin in the center.
Different from the ancient Chinese-style buildings outside, the golden coffin is a typical ancient Egyptian style.
Although it had also lost most of its divine power and divinity, Li Hao still recognized the coffin's identity as a "divine artifact" at a glance.
——An instrument used by gods.
It could even be a divine weapon that an ancient Egyptian god created for himself after falling into the [Sinking Zone].
"This pawnshop is really wild..."
Walk slowly to the golden coffin.
Li Hao gently opened the coffin lid and saw an incorruptible corpse inside.
It was an ancient Egyptian god with an eagle head and a human body, with golden rings on his hands and feet.
Li Hao can confirm with 100% certainty that this is the body of a god that fell from a higher dimension.
Even if the unobservable property is lost...
Even if all the extraordinary powers were suppressed by the [Sinking Zone]...
Even if it no longer possesses any divinity, divine power, or divine personality...
Just a body of diamond that has not decayed for tens of millions of years is enough to crush all scientific principles and cognitive common sense of mankind.
The most important thing is that in this third exhibition hall, there is more than one thing similar to a golden coffin.
Looking around, Li Hao discovered that the objects that could be displayed in this exhibition hall were almost all objects related to the death of gods in the major pantheons on Earth.
"I'm a little suspicious now. Is this God of Wealth also serving as the God of Death?"
