At The Beginning, Caishikou Beheaded, I Chose To Be Reborn
Chapter 120: Be Careful With Ye
The people sitting at this table are none other than the man with the hooked nose and other ghost cultivators.
After they delivered the "goods", they had completed the mission and went to the restaurant to drink.
Just as Ye Yuan thought before, these guys are still three-point vigilant when they are outside, and once they enter the ghost town, they immediately relax.
Ye Yuan originally thought about whether he should inquire about something, but before he could make a move, they revealed important information by themselves.
I saw the man with the hooked nose drank a glass of bright red wine, seemed to be stimulated by the smell of wine, smashed it hard - smacked his lips, and said.
"In the past, our errands were not done well, and if there was a slight mistake, we would be dragged out and served by the whip. Now that we have done a good job, rewards will be issued immediately, and our brothers will have more money on hand, so we have more money to spend. Consumption here...hehe, this is what I admire the most about my ancestors, rewards and punishments are clearly defined!"
Regardless of whether it was acting or showing his true feelings, the man with the hooked nose boasted so much that others dared not follow suit.
Hastily raised his glass and said.
"Respect the ancestors!"
The atmosphere immediately became heated.
Perhaps because of their familiarity with them, the shopkeeper of the restaurant took the initiative to refill a pot of wine for them, and then walked over with his own glass.
"Isn't this Uncle Luan? You did a good job this time?"
The man with the hooked nose said with a smile.
"Good luck, who knows what's going on with that dragon in the Minjiang River. It's making wind and rain outside, and it's full of refugees. It doesn't need to use any tricks. It just lures you with gold and silver, and you can get the meat."
Hearing this, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up, and he took the initiative to clink glasses with him.
"Since it's rare to get so much meat, I wonder if Uncle Luan can find a relationship for me, and if there is any extra human flesh, share it with me.
These words did not deliberately lower their voices, even the ghost cultivators in the restaurant heard them.
The word "human flesh" seemed to arouse their greed, and they all looked over immediately.
The hooked-nosed man pointed to the jug of wine and said.
"It is said in the world that if there is nothing to be courteous, it is either adultery or stealing. It is true, hehe, it is very rare for the iron cock of the shopkeeper to bring drinks on his own initiative. Logically speaking, I shouldn't touch your face... But the meat tickets we brought back are the ingredients used in the ghost festival. At that time, the ancestor will not only eat it himself, but also entertain distinguished guests. How much courage do you have to take food from the ancestor?"
As soon as these words came out, the ghost cultivators at the same table all sneered.
But the shopkeeper repeatedly waved his hands and said.
"You're right, I just want to die, and I don't want to die in this way. How dare I covet the Chinese food of the ancestor of the withered bones? What I mean is that the hearts, livers, brains, etc. of those virgins It's a big dish on the banquet, but other parts that no one eats, isn't it a waste if they are thrown away? If Uncle Luan can go out of his way and give me all these scraps, then my restaurant will be able to have a few more big dishes. After the business is booming, your benefits will naturally be indispensable."
The man with the hooked nose raised his brows. He was a little tempted to hear these words, but he was more playful.
"Shopkeeper Chen, you are really courageous. We are in the nine bans and eighteen cuts in Wangui City, but it is clearly stipulated that openly selling human flesh is not allowed... You did this, but you committed a felony. Those dead souls are all looking at you!"
"What Uncle Luan said, isn't that all a thing of the past? How many people still take the decree promulgated by that ancestor seriously? What nonsense, nine bans and eighteen cuts, even the city of thousands of ghosts doesn't know How many people are dissatisfied, he suppressed us for a thousand years, do you want to continue to suppress it?"
"I don't dare to answer your words. The Wangui City was built by that ancestor. Seventy percent out of ten of the current foundation is due to him. Don't forget that the current nominal position of the city lord, It's his too."
"But shouldn't it be the turn of the withered bone ancestor to take over soon?"
The shopkeeper smiled treacherously and proudly.
"We are businessmen, and we are very well informed. In fact, the whole city now knows that this Ghost Festival is the time when Patriarch Withered Bones is in trouble. What is more popular is that these prohibitions will be abolished sooner or later."
"Hahaha, what you said is quite good. In fact, in the past three or four hundred years, our withered bone ancestors have always had the final say in Wangui City. As for that one, hmph!"
The man with the hooked nose sneered again and again, but continued to chat with the shopkeeper.
In a few words, the deal was actually decided.
Judging from the meaning of the shopkeeper, it should be that he is determined to start selling dishes made of human flesh after the Ghost Festival.
Ye Yuan didn't intend to eat, or rather, he didn't have the slightest appetite for the food in this restaurant, whether it was clean or not.
Listening to the conversation at the next table, he had a simple outline of the current situation in Wangui City.
"If nothing else happens, the ancestor they are talking about should be referring to the Wusheng old ghost. This person is originally a Ghost Immortals series. After successfully building a city and having a foundation, becoming an ancestor It's a matter of course...but judging from the current situation, his position seems to be a bit insecure, this old bone ancestor is actually going to grab the class and grab the pepper?"
In theory, this is a very difficult thing to do.
After all, according to Qing Yu Daoist's records, in Wangui City in the past, Wusheng Laogui had the highest cultivation base and the highest qualifications.
Moreover, he took the lead in building this city, which can definitely be called a great achievement.
Under this premise, his position should be solid.
A thousand years is a long time for ordinary people, but for a practitioner, it is not so far away.
What happened in the end, in just a thousand years, the Wusheng old ghost lost his authority, and he was about to be replaced by human beings?
This is not alarmist talk, you know, no matter what, Wusheng old ghost is also a fairy, even the shopkeeper who opened the shop, and these middle-level ghost cultivators dare to talk about him openly in such a place where people come and go , and revealed an unscrupulous meaning in the words.
It is enough to show that the situation of the Wusheng old ghost has reached an extremely difficult situation.
The hooked-nosed man next to him finished his drink and left straight away.
And Ye Yuan's last dish has just been served.
Ye Yuan grabbed Xiaoer and asked.
"I heard someone talking about the Ghost Festival just now, but what kind of festival is it?"
Xiao Er was stunned, and then showed an inconceivable look.
"Guest officer, you are new here, but how can you not know about the Ghost Festival? This is a big festival in our Wangui City. When the Wangui City was built for the first time, Wusheng Patriarch designated that day as the Ghost Festival. , Since then, every year on the Ghost Festival, there will be a big banquet, and the whole city will celebrate... Speaking of which, it is really a coincidence that you came here, and it is possible to witness a major event in the city of thousands of ghosts.
"Oh? What's the big deal?"
"Actually, it's all tacit to us. Although Wangui City was built by Wusheng Patriarch, he is unpopular. The injury from the fight has not healed, so he has been suppressed by the ancestor of the withered bone all these years... the majestic city lord, there is only one title left, as early as a few years ago, the ancestor of the withered bone said, The Ghost Festival this time is a time of trouble, and I'm afraid it's not about re-election of the city lord to divide the benefits."
"The entire Ten Thousand Ghosts City was built by Wusheng Patriarch, so is there no one who supports him?"
"Of course there are, but compared to the power of the ancestor withered bones, it is definitely not enough. You don't know that too many things have happened in these years."
The young couple was eloquent, surely more than one person had asked him about these things.
After his introduction, Ye Yuan really learned a lot about the situation in Wangui City.
To put it simply, this is actually a confrontation between local forces and foreign forces.
Wangui City is going to be bigger, so it has been accepting ghost cultivators, demons, and Devil Dao from the outside world.
For a long time, relying on the prestige and strength of Wusheng Patriarch, these outsiders have to behave with their tails between their legs no matter how stabbed they are, and have to abide by the nine prohibitions and eighteen cuts set by Wusheng Patriarch.
The Nine Prohibition and Eighteen Cuts are actually the laws of the City of Thousand Ghosts, like the prohibition of selling human flesh in the city" is one of them.
It was okay at first, and the Ghosts dared not disobey.
But after the completion of the construction of the city, more and more foreign forces poured in, such as the existence of the series of the withered bone ancestors...
Gradually, the voice of opposition grew louder.
If the Wusheng Patriarch was more tactful and knew how to be a human being, he might be able to fight a group of people and play tricks.
But before he could do anything, he encountered a big event. No one knew what the specific event was. In short, he left Wangui City for a period of time, and there was probably a gap of more than a hundred years. is injured.
And the power in the city of thousands of ghosts is seized by the great emperor by outsiders.
Ghost cultivators, demons, Devil Dao and the like have always had no taboos. In the past, they succumbed to the prestige of Wusheng Patriarch and did not dare to resist. Now that they have backing, they all began to oppose Wusheng Patriarch.
Over time, people's hearts all gathered towards the withered bone ancestor, while the Wusheng ancestor became the absolute disadvantaged party.
For example, the fact that Patriarch Wusheng held a feast of human flesh on the Ghost Festival is actually a provocation to Patriarch Wusheng.
If the Wusheng Patriarch was at his peak, he would definitely not tolerate it, but now he chooses to endure it.
This undoubtedly fueled the arrogance of the opponent.
Today, Patriarch Withering Bones has become a major force, engulfing the hearts of the whole city, wanting to attack Patriarch Wusheng.
Although there are still two days before the Ghost Festival, no one thinks there will be any suspense.
Wusheng Patriarch, I'm afraid that he is really going to die.
After listening to what the waiter said, Ye Yuan had a clear understanding of the context of the whole incident.
He is not very interested in the internal fighting in Wangui City, but he still has some opinions on the cannibalism of the ancestor withered bones, especially virgins and boys.
"Xiaoer, I have a last question for you, where is the City Lord's Mansion?"
Ye Yuan asked lightly.
"Naturally, it's the center of the city."
"Thank you."
Ye Yuan got up, Zhu Qingqing settled the meal money, and followed her out.
The waiter looked at the untouched dishes on the table, scratched his head, and said in confusion.
"What a weirdo!"
Not long after, Ye Yuan arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, and was stopped naturally.
He spoke to the guard at the door.
"Please inform the city lord that there is a guest surnamed Ye coming to visit."
……… Ask for flowers……
"Don't provoke the surname Ye?"
In the palace of the withered bone ancestor, a strange question came out.
"Why did fellow daoist say that?"
In the empty Great Hall, there were only two people.
One is the ancestor of withered bones, his name is withered bones, but in fact he looks like a rich middle-aged man, dressed in brocade clothes, seven out of ten fingers are wearing precious rings
Opposite him was a man with a stern face.
It is none other than the Dragon Lord of the Dragon Clan, Shang Hong, the Lord of Feiyun Stream.
After leaving Minjiang, he actually came here.
"Why do you say that?"
Shang Hong sneered
voice, said.
"Just because this Mr. Ye Yuan suppressed Ao Ding with only one piece of Magic Treasures, I know what you are thinking, Ao Ding is useless, you and I can hold it down at will
, but the problem is that Ao Ding is protected by the remnant soul of the old Dragon Lord, but the moment the remnant soul exploded, it was smashed away by that person's Magic Treasures!"
Withered Bones Patriarch gasped.
"It's so powerful?"
Shang Hong said with a blank face.
"Not only that, I teamed up with the other three Dragon Lords to try to shake that person's Magic Treasures, but they couldn't move at all. After a closer look, I found out that the man's Magic Treasures had already merged with
The land is connected...not to mention the Ao Ding, the entire Dragon Palace, including the strength of the Minjiang River, was crushed to death by that mountain. In desperation, I had no choice but to ask the old Dragon Lord of the Tongtian River to come out
Take care of this matter, do you now understand the seriousness of the matter?"
With a look of horror in the eyes of the ancestor withered bones, he subconsciously stood up and took two steps left and right.
"How could such a figure appear in this world? Could it be the newly revived ancient immortal?"
......0
"I don't know where he came from, he seemed to have popped up out of nowhere, I only know that his name is Ye Yuan and he has a gun.
"Ye Yuan, right... Don't worry, I'm not blind. I can live until now because I know who can be messed with and who can't be messed with. I just stay in the city of thousands of ghosts."
I will not go anywhere, and I will never provoke that person!"
"I'm afraid that if you don't take the initiative to provoke, people will follow you!"
"I can't..."
The withered bone patriarch instantly showed nervousness.
"I have no grievances with him, why would he come to me?"
Shang Hong looked at him with a half-smile.
"Do you know why Ao Ding was suppressed? I asked the manager of the Dragon Palace and the river god at Fengqiao Ferry before I found out the reason... It turned out that Mr. Ye was a kind-hearted man.
Yes, it is the worst thing to see someone relying on Magic power to bully mortals. Over the years, Ao Ding, because of his obsession with transforming dragons, has caused chaos in the Guangning Mansion. That person was originally dissatisfied.
Being provoked again, the Hearts Demon broke out and launched a flood, which completely angered that one, so he suppressed it!"
"You have to know that although Ao Ding is ineffective, the entire dragon clan is behind him after all, but that one shot without hesitation, and left behind a mountain
There, this undoubtedly shows one thing, that is, he is not very afraid of the threat of the dragon clan...Of course, he has the qualifications. "
"I'd rather offend the Dragon Clan than take action. Baobuqi is a hater. You've made this city of ghosts into a mess. If that one sees it, what do you think it will be?"
What do you think?"
With those words, the old bone ancestor felt guilty for a while.
"I didn't make such a big mistake like that idiot Ao Ding."
"But you're throwing a feast of human flesh in the city of thousands of ghosts!"
There was a stern look in Shang Hong's eyes.
"Back when I met you, the first reason was that we were helpless and supported each other, so we could go further;
However, there is a bottom line, why, now that you have become a true immortal, have you forgotten about it? When I came to Wangui City last time, it was not as smoky as it is now!"
"When I first entered the city, I heard that all the ghost cultivators in the city were discussing, saying that after you came to power and lifted the ban, you would go out and plunder people wantonly, and eat him to your heart's content!"
"Aren't you looking for death? There are hundreds of thousands of ghost cultivators in the entire city of thousands of ghosts. Once there is no order, the disaster will be a hundred times greater than that of Ao Ding. That Mr. Ye is here
Guangning Mansion activities, if he hits him..."
Hearing this, the ancestor withered bones said quickly.
"Don't worry, I'm not a fool. I never thought of releasing all the ghost cultivators. I just made these unrealistic promises to fight against the old ghosts without life."
If I really dare to do this, not to mention meeting that Mr. Ye, I am afraid that many real immortals in the world will come to encircle and suppress me... That is the way to kill me, I dare not do it.
Shang Hong's face looked a little better.
"You'd better weigh it up."
Withered Bones Patriarch said with a smile.
"The fellow daoist and I have been friends for many years. This seizure of power is of great importance to me. I also ask the fellow daoist to stay and strengthen my momentum. As for this human feast, I promise it will be the last time
, When Wusheng old ghost is defeated, I will re-establish the rules... Hehe, even if Mr. Ye finds Wangui City by then, he will not find any flaws. "
Shang Hong sneered.
"Are you not afraid that he will see it now?"
Withered Bones Patriarch laughed.
"How can luck be so bad?".
