Merchant of the Underworld

"Master Rong." The female ghost saluted me and said, "After I fell into the river and died, my soul did not dissipate, but it could not leave the Grand Canal and could only float near my body. Later. I slowly thought about it and started practicing."

"But I don't have the Tao method, and I don't want to increase my cultivation by harming others, so my progress is very slow. But thinking about it secretly, since I can still have my soul and immortality, I am very satisfied! I thought I would practice for another hundred years. I can also practice some Taoism and cultivate a spiritual body. But I didn’t expect that just a month ago, a ghost king suddenly appeared from under the canal!”

"This Ghost King is very powerful. He killed all the evil ghosts and resentful souls on the canal. Only I, who had never harmed anyone before, and whose Yin Qi weakened, escaped. But with the Ghost King here, I don’t dare to go back, so I just wander around by the rivers outside.”

"My cultivation level was already low, and it became even weaker after I left the body. My soul is about to dissipate, and I can't even hold on to this residual thought."

"So..." The female ghost glanced towards the bedroom with some shame and said, "So I fell in love with this girl."

"That's still hurting people!" Li Mazi shouted: "You are already dead, do you know you are a lonely ghost? Taking on a human body and taking away the soul, what is the difference between this and killing someone to take his life?"

"No, no, no..." the female ghost explained continuously: "I just want to use this girl's intelligence to find a way to fish out my body and continue practicing in another place. The girl will only get sick afterwards, and I I didn’t mean to take her life.”

"That's nice to say! If you hadn't happened to meet us, who knows whether you would have taken your life or harmed others?" Li Mazi was still angry and shouted loudly, "Brother, don't talk nonsense to her. Just kill her."

Teacher Xia was possessed by a ghost and almost had an accident. Li Mazi felt distressed and felt a little indiscriminate, and did not want to hear the explanation of the female ghost at all. But what this female ghost said was true. She really didn't want to harm Teacher Xia, otherwise the situation would be much more dangerous than the current situation.

I waved my hand to signal Li Mazi not to interrupt, and then asked the female ghost: "Are you saying that a month ago, a ghost king suddenly appeared under the canal?"

"Yes." The female ghost said with fear, "I have been practicing in the Grand Canal for more than fifty years, and I have never seen him, let alone noticed that there is such a powerful Yin Qi nearby. He was born around this month It just came out of nowhere.”

"What is that guy's origin?" I continued to ask.

According to the old leader of the Cao Gang, the powerful Li Gui blocking the canal happened to happen a month ago. It seems that this was the work of a ghost.

"I don't know..." The female ghost Qin Amei shook her head and said: "I have only seen him once from a distance. He is very tall and wearing ancient clothes. His strength is very terrifying! More than a dozen of them have been on the canal. The evil ghost who stirred up trouble was torn to pieces in the blink of an eye. He might have dismissed me and rushed directly in front of me, desperately chasing other evil ghosts, but I didn't dare to go back. "

What on earth is this guy going to do?

Although he caused trouble out of thin air and stopped the Caobang, he never killed a person, and he never even capsized a boat. Judging from the description of the old leader, it was more like a child's prank, trying desperately to pull the wooden boat to prevent them from moving forward.

But he showed no mercy to the evil spirits on the canal, and he was so vicious in his attacks.

Is this guy planning to turn the entire canal into his closed land and practice cultivation here? That's why we have to drive away other evil spirits to avoid competing with him for the Yin Qi treasure land?

While I was meditating, the female ghost suddenly knelt down towards me and prayed pitifully: "Master, I really don't want to harm anyone. My only wish is to take back my body and continue practicing. Please grant me, Master." .”

I thought about it and said, "Well, even though you made a mistake, you still have your own feelings, and even though you are a ghost, your good intentions are still intact and you have never done harm to others, so I won't punish you." . It just so happens that I will go to the canal to meet the ghost king tomorrow as requested. If everything goes well, I will help you recover the body so that you can continue your cultivation. But are you willing to lead the way for me? "

"Thank you, Master. My little girl is willing to do the hard work of a dog and a horse." The female ghost hurriedly knelt down and worshiped again.

"Well, you can settle here for now." As I said that, I took out a piece of locust tree root.

This was carved after I obtained the strange wooden box at the Lingbao Conference, imitating the Ten Thousand Spirits Ghost Gathering Formation above.

Of course, with my current level of cultivation and mastery of spells, I can only do this, but hiding dozens of ghosts in a short period of time is no problem.

The female ghost thanked him profusely, turned into a plume of black smoke and got in.

Yin Xinyue looked at me in shock and said: "Jiulin, when did you become so powerful? I remember that you had to think over and over again every time you took on a business, carefully prepare for a long time, and you could be alive anytime, anywhere. Danger, when did it become so easy?”

I smiled and said, "A walk-on person can't be a star."

"Yes, you are now a big star in the yinwu industry, but how can you only increase your reputation without increasing your worth?" Li Mazi was still a little angry. He took my words and said calmly: "It turns out that , we have to think carefully about any business we take on. It’s good now. Not only do you accept any job that others offer you, but you also accept any job that’s not offered to you, and you even do the ghost’s favor. , do we still have a head here?"

"Don't neglect doing good deeds because they are small, accumulate negative virtues, and never do enough to promote evil and eliminate good." I smiled at Li Mazi and said, "You don't have to worry about Xia Qin. Wait until noon tomorrow when the sun will shine." That's good. It just so happens that her vacation seems to be coming to an end. Let Xinyue and her go back tomorrow. You can pack up and get on the boat with me early tomorrow morning to take a look at the canal. "

"I'm not going." Li Mazi glanced at me and said, "I didn't want to go in the first place, but now something happened to Xia Qin, how could I leave her alone? You have to go to hell, but I don't have the leisure to do it anyway. ." With that said, Li Mazi turned around and walked towards the bedroom.

"Mazi." I lowered my face and asked seriously, "Do you know why I have to take you with me?"

"Why." Li Mazi turned his head and looked at me and said, "Do you think I'm too idle?"
