Chapter 16: Ghost Town (XV)



Li Rushi sat cross-legged on the high platform, muttering something.

The Supreme Commandment to Transcend Your Lonely Soul

Gun and knife kill jumping water hanging rope

Died in public or secretly, died unjustly

Creditors and enemies are asking for my life

Kneeling in front of my stage, gossip shines

I will go to another place to transcend

For men and women, take responsibility for themselves

You can be rich or poor by yourself

The command is to wait for everyone to be reborn quickly

The command is to wait for everyone to be reborn quickly

The young man closed his eyebrows, and as he chanted the mantra, a golden lotus slowly blossomed between his eyebrows.

A golden light slowly formed in front of him, weaving into a small boat.

The townspeople of Yangjia Town also appeared on the boat one by one. Yang Le, Yang Qingyu, Yang Yong, Yang Lao, and... and so on.

Their souls have dissipated, but their resentment has not dissipated, so they cannot reincarnate. Therefore, Li Rushi used the mantra of salvation to send them back to heaven and earth one by one.

Those who come have nothing, and those who leave have sorrow. Use the mantra to comfort them and they will forget their worries.

Their sins will naturally be judged by heaven, and as for their reincarnation and rebirth, they will also be in accordance with heaven's will.

From now on, the Yangjia Town copy is about to be completed.

The players suddenly realized and looked at Li Rushi for a long time. When the golden lotus blossomed, Li Rushi was really holy. Li Rushi was originally a calm and steady person. Against the golden light, her eyebrows were cold, and she was compassionate and indifferent. This contradictory temperament made her more mysterious. It made people want to give all the gorgeous clothes and jewelry in their hands to her for her to watch and play, and their only wish was to be her believer.

Audience: My new husband is so scary!

[The scene where Brother Dun's eyebrows blossomed just now was so damn beautiful! ]

[What's the description above? It's clearly a lotus blossoming between the eyebrows, okay? My husband is really a fairy from heaven who has come down to earth!]

[I don’t know why, but just now I didn’t want to call you husband, but instead wanted to call you wife…]

[You are not right, but just now... a human being can't do that... oh, you know what I mean, right? It's just that kind of energy! ]

[I have always felt that Shield is the most beautiful girl on the mountain, but I didn’t expect that she is a deity descended from heaven. So, I will just say it straight, I have fallen in love with her! ]

[Wake up upstairs, hurry up and get your love number plate. You all want wives, but I want a husband. Isn't a celestial being attractive? ]

Yingxue also stared at Li Rushi infatuatedly. She knew that after this instance, she might not meet Li Rushi again, so after hesitating for a while, she stepped forward and asked for Li Rushi's contact information.

Li Rushi stared at her. They had not yet left the dungeon, and Yingxue still looked like Yang Qingyu. The girl looked at her anxiously and expectantly, hoping to exchange contact information and deepen their connection.

She did not refuse directly, but turned her wrist, and instantly, a golden lotus appeared in Li Rushi's palm, the same as the one between her eyebrows.

Li Rushi raised her hand and touched Yingxue's brow. Her movements were very gentle. Yingxue only felt warmth on her forehead, and almost immediately, her mind became much clearer.

Yingxue touched her forehead and asked in a low voice: "Xuanzhi, what is this...?"

Li Rushi had already turned around. Yingxue watched her walk further and further away, and finally heard a sentence: "If you can see me again alive, then we can exchange."

Yingxue took two deep breaths and waved at Li Rushi's back: "I will, Xuanzhi, wait for me!"

Audience: Oh, how come it's like a life-and-death separation? I can't bear to watch it.

Only a dissatisfied voice from the jade pendant on Yingxue's neck shouted, "Hey, pretty boy, you haven't given me what I want!"

As early as when Li Rushi asked the ghost baby to pass on the message, he had agreed with him that after the task was accomplished, he would give him the longevity lock in his hand.

The longevity lock turned into a stream of light and went straight into the jade pendant. The ghost baby in the jade pendant looked listless. His ghost power would be greatly weakened here, so he just knelt lazily on the ground. Only when he saw the longevity lock did his eyelashes move twice.

Forget it, she has already turned to ashes, there is no point in thinking about her anymore.

I hope she can be a man in her next life and not be bullied again.

A mechanical voice came slowly: "Congratulations to player Yingxue for successfully completing the game. You are waiting to receive your prize of 300,000 yuan. Please claim it in the game lobby."

[Congratulations to player Heichuan for successfully clearing the game. You are waiting to receive your bonus of NT$300,000. Please collect it in the game lobby. ]

[Congratulations to player Pag for successfully clearing the game. You are waiting to receive your bonus of 300,000 yuan. Please claim it in the game lobby.]

[Congratulations to player Kerry for successfully clearing the game. You are waiting to receive a bonus of 300,000 yuan. Please claim it in the game lobby. In addition, if the player kills more than ten NPCs, he will be rewarded with an extra mission item. Please draw it in the game lobby. ]

[Congratulations to the player Xuanzhi for successfully clearing the level. The player killed more than 100 NPCs and was awarded two additional mission props. Please draw them in the game lobby. The player has submitted the questionnaire for the dungeon story. The system determines that the restoration rate has reached 82%. The player can receive double the mission bonus, and the bonus to be received is 600,000 yuan. Please collect it in the game lobby. ]

The audience knows that there is such a thing as restoring the copy story line, but basically the restoration rate cannot reach 80%, so few people get double bonuses. This is the first time they have seen this situation!

My husband/wife is absolutely amazing! She is worthy of being the woman I chose!

[Am I the only one who is watching my husband's storyline come to an end? ]

[82% accuracy, really amazing! ]

[I strongly suggest that the official not release the original story line, and release the one my wife came up with! ]

However, the game is a serious one and it hardly pays attention to the audience, and even chooses to play dead in response to the audience's requests.

"The system has detected that the five players Yingxue, Pag, Kurokawa, Kerry, and Xuanzhi have successfully cleared the level. In one minute, they will leave this instance. Please be prepared."

They had one more minute to spend together.

Sakuraxue was reluctant, Pug was grateful, Kerry admired her, and Kurokawa... Kurokawa just wanted to curry favor.

This thigh is so thick and long, how can I not hug it tightly? It's a pity that Li Rushi didn't think of exchanging contact information.

If fate allows, we will meet again in the dungeon, so there is no need to rush. Besides, she is more interested in bonuses and rewards.

Six hundred thousand is enough for the down payment of a house in the provincial capital!

But this is far from enough, what she wants to buy is the whole mountain!

A minute passed in the blink of an eye. Li Rushi felt slightly dizzy, and the next second, she appeared in the game hall.

On the touch screen panel in the game hall, Li Rushi first checked her bonus. After making sure there was no problem, she clicked on the withdrawal button. She would probably receive a text message to her bank card in about an hour.

This news obviously pleased Li Rushi. She curled the corners of her lips slightly and tapped the button to draw the copy reward.

Perhaps it was because the luck of those who practice Taoism was not very good, Li Rushi drew a bottle of purple potion and a lifelike paper man.

The purple potion is called Yan Ru Yun, and it seems to have some aphrodisiac effect. It’s barely okay. What is this paper man used for?

Li Rushi took a look at the bright facial features of the paper man, and without wanting to explore further, he put it into the system first.

The system flashed, and Li Rushi's current data popped up immediately.

Codename: Xuanzhi

Gender: Female

Age: 22

Specialty: Hard life

Force value: 50

Charm: 60

Health: 70

Special abilities: spells, lightning, stick skills

System rewards: a bottle of Yan Ruyun potion and a Yang Lete paper man.

Cleared copies: 1

Game points: 500

Whether to enable live broadcast: Enabled by default (can be turned off through personal homepage--settings--live broadcast settings)

The good news is that many values ​​have increased a lot, especially the charm value, which is actually higher than her combat power value.

Li Rushi was puzzled: something seemed to be wrong.

She asked the game customer service, and the system told her that these values ​​were automatically determined and could be ignored. Only then did Li Rushi feel slightly relieved.

The dungeon has been cleared, the bonus has been received, and there are still three days before the next dungeon. During these three days, I can go back to the real world and rest. Li Rushi is also a little tired.

Although the audience's attention can bring inspiration, she is still a little tired from not resting and not eating for a long time.

Fortunately, she is making money now. She must cook some instant noodles for herself later.

Spicy beef noodles, the kind with two eggs and a sausage.

Li Rushi almost wanted to sigh to the sky, "Great! Finally I don't have to eat instant noodles anymore."

She clicked the button to return to the real world, and the copy story of Yangjia Town was automatically played in the game.

Yangjia Town is located on the border of Hedong and Hexi. It has been plagued by wars since ancient times. All adult men in the town must go to war with the army. However, the town has a small population. If all the men go and die on the battlefield, there will be no descendants. Therefore, the townspeople dug a cellar, which was also used as a trench. When the conscripts came, they asked the men to hide in the cellar.

After a while, you can make a living.

But one year, there was no rain and there was a drought for several months. Every household in the town had no surplus food. Risking being caught and conscripted, the men left the town and went to the barracks to steal food, but they were soon caught.

The soldiers guarding the city had not had food for nearly half a month. Choosing between survival and humanity, both are guilty.

In order to continue defending the city, the general guarding the city has ordered the killing of war horses for meat, and also killed his own concubine. Now that a group of strong men have come to their doorstep, the soldiers will certainly not be polite.

None of the men who went this time came back.

Soon, the meat was eaten up and the soldiers began to set their sights on Yangjia Town.

There are still several hundred people in the town. If they eat less, it will be enough for them to defend the city.

They used wooden stakes to push open the town's gates, captured all the townspeople, ate all the beautiful women in the town, and boiled the children to feed themselves.

The general's wife, Ji, couldn't bear it, so she secretly untied a young man and asked him to find a way to save the townspeople.

The imperial court’s food aid arrived soon, and the residents of Yangjia Town were innocent, so it was better to release them.

But they didn't expect that Yangjia Town had been in the barbarian country for a long time, and the town was rich in the heart-confusing grass. Only a few strands of that grass were enough to make a bunch of grown men drunk.

The townspeople of Yangjia Town killed the soldiers and boiled them all, leaving only the women, armor and weapons.

Ji Shi was assigned to Yang Le, whom she had saved. She was a weak woman and naturally could not resist. In addition, Yang Le treated her well, so Ji Shi finally gave in.

But the soldiers did not eat the meat for long. With hundreds of people in the town, the consumption was huge. They used weapons to rob the imperial court of its surplus food and killed the officials who were escorting the food and ate their meat.

The townspeople were no longer any different from the soldiers.

Perhaps because he was afraid of seeing ghosts because of his bad deeds and because he was afraid of drought and lack of food, the oldest elder in the village, Old Yang, began to think about praying to the gods. He had seen a ritual in which one could transform into a god or ghost by putting on a huge god or ghost mask, communicate with heaven and earth, and pray for a good harvest.

Coincidentally, since they prayed to God, they have never lacked food again.

At that time, the group of soldiers who were defending the city had already been occupied by the enemy. They came to Yangjia Town to plunder, but were bewitched by the townspeople who were well prepared, and their entire army was wiped out.

According to the soldiers from this barbaric country, they often eat humans, and the defeated prisoners of war are also killed and used as military rations. In their words, humans are "two-legged sheep" and are no different from domestic animals.

The townspeople suddenly felt relieved. It turned out that they were not the only ones eating human flesh.

But gradually, there was not enough meat to eat, so the men in the town came up with a plan: they asked the women in the town to get pregnant and give birth to children. If the children were boys, they would keep them, but if they were girls, they would eat them. If the women could not give birth, they would kill them and eat them too.

Yangjia Town eventually fell into chaos.

In order to eat meat, many people would rob other people's children in the middle of the night and cook them for food, or rob other people's wives to give birth to children. The blacksmith Yang's family had no choice. They didn't want their daughter Qingyu to be abused by others, so Yang and his wife Wang Sufen discussed it and drugged their daughter Qingyu one night and asked their son Qingwen to have sex with her.

If a child is born in this way, we cannot keep him, so just kill him.

There are countless bones in every household in the town.

The townspeople would also sometimes meet passers-by. As long as they saw a human figure, they would bring them to the town, give them some water to drink, and then knock them out and kill them.

There are so many bones in the town, and the bones buried under the ten miles of yellow earth have all rusted.

Yang Qingyu went crazy and jumped into a well when she found out she was pregnant. Her body was given to Yang Yong, a coffin maker, by her uncle Yang, as a ghost marriage for Yang Yong's son who had died young.

At first, Yang Le was quite nice to Ji. He opened a paper figurine shop and sold paper figurines. He heard that burning paper figurines could get rid of the resentment of the dead. But the business was very bleak. In this world, people don’t even care about eating people, so how can they care about their souls after death? Yang Le was weak and couldn’t get meat, so he asked Ji to serve the men in the village in exchange for some meat.

Ji lived a life worse than death. She became pregnant, but because she was raped many times during the pregnancy, she was unable to give birth to the child, and the eight-month-old baby died in the womb.

In order to have some meat to eat, Yang Le cut open her stomach, took out the child, cooked it together with Ji's body, and had a full meal.

The female ghost was filled with resentment, and the dead child turned directly into a ghost baby, which came to seek revenge on the townspeople every day.

But the ghost mask has its own consciousness, and it has a trace of the power of heaven and earth, which is difficult to deal with, so the ghost baby stayed here for three hundred years, just to wait for the day of revenge. The female ghost has been with him all the time. When the female ghost was alive, she had a longevity lock, which was a dowry when she married the general. She wanted to leave it to her son, but she didn't expect that she still couldn't keep it.

Longevity lock, longevity lock, why can’t my son live long?

The ghost baby practiced for three hundred years, and at the last moment of breakthrough, he ate his mother, so that his cultivation level soared, and he slaughtered everyone in Yangjia Town. When fighting against the God and Ghost Mask, he chose to self-destruct and died together with the mask.

From then on, there was no Yangjia Town anymore in the world.

All the right and wrong, grudges, life and death, love and hate, will turn to ashes and disappear in this world.
