Fengdu.
It's midnight at the moment.
The city was noisy, with many ghost cultivators and human cultivators busy trading.
However, compared with Lin Jichen's previous times, Fengdu seems to have become much deserted now, with the number of both humans and ghosts being much smaller than usual.
Lin Jichen randomly found a stall owned by a clan monk, bought a few things, and asked on the pretext: "Brother, why are there no people in Fengdu now?"
The monk setting up the stall smiled bitterly when he heard this: "You haven't been here for a long time, haven't you? There is no way. Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, the ghost world is very strict. The resources of the ghost world are also strictly controlled. Only a small amount of products are allowed to be traded.
, and the price has become several times more expensive, so naturally fewer people come to buy it.”
"Also, the ghost world is extremely tightly guarded. In the past, many ghost dealers came into the ghost world to kidnap ghost servants. Later, after the empress came to power, she killed all these ghost dealers. Even the ghost dealers were gone. Think about it, there are still people in Fengdu.
, we just have to make a living and barely make ends meet, alas!”
Lin Jichen was stunned after hearing this, and then left the stall and walked towards the west city entrance.
Xichengkou is the entrance to the ghost world. It was here that Lin Jichen sneaked into the ghost world half a year ago and found Chu Xinqin's soul. The process was quite difficult.
Now, although Lin Jichen has reached the state of enlightenment, he dare not say that he can cause chaos in the ghost world. The ghost kings like generals, ministers and concubines alone are enough for him to drink a pot.
Lin Jichen looked at the heavily guarded entrance to the ghost world and was just about to decide whether to use the old method to get in.
Unexpectedly, he happened to meet a group of human monks who had the same idea as him.
"Brother, you died so miserably~"
"Woo woo woo, I hope your spirit in heaven will protect us."
"Husband, how could you leave us so early?"
"Wow, father. If your son is unfilial, he can't support you until the end of his life."
.
In front of me
More than a dozen people pushed a coffin and cried bitterly all the way to Xichengkou.
Lin Jichen suddenly felt that it was funny, so he stood and watched the show from a distance. Not to mention, the acting skills of these guys were really like that, much better than the few guys who sent him in at the beginning.
When this group of 'funeral' processions slowly approached the entrance to the ghost world, several ghost soldiers immediately stepped forward to scold them and drive them away.
These people seemed to be frightened and dispersed like birds and beasts, leaving only the sun-shielding coffin parked at the entrance.
Familiar recipes, familiar routines.
Lin Jichen guessed that these ghost soldiers would covet the value of the Sun Coffin and bring them into the ghost world just like last time.
But what he didn't expect was that these ghost soldiers actually ignored the valuable Yangshi coffin and pushed it aside.
Then a ghost soldier who looked like a captain walked up and looked at the coffin with a disdainful smile.
"It's still the same old thing. You want to sneak into the ghost world and you want to deceive us? Very good."
The ghost soldier smiled ferociously and actually took out a few nails full of sinister energy and sealed all the coffin boards on the spot. Then he took out a small bottle, opened the mouth of the bottle, and poured the contents of the bottle onto the coffin.
Immediately afterwards, the coffin ignited with blazing green fire, and the 'dead man' inside seemed to be awakened, instantly resurrected, and frantically hit the coffin board in an attempt to escape.
However, the coffin board had been sealed, and no matter how hard he tried, it was indifferent.
"Help ah ah ah!!!"
The screams of the 'dead' came from the coffin.
The funeral procession that originally escaped wanted to come back to help, but when they saw a large number of ghost soldiers looking at them eagerly, they suddenly became intimidated.
Adhering to the purpose of helping Taoist friends who are poor and not dead, they all slipped away one after another.
The smoke ran away.
The people in the coffin only have a cooperative relationship with them, and are not real relatives. Besides, even if they are real relatives, they would not dare to take such a big risk to rob someone.
In this way, the person in the coffin was quickly burned alive and turned into a coke, and his life was lost while acting.
All the ghost soldiers returned to their original positions, as if nothing had happened.
Lin Jichen shook his head when he saw it. It seemed that the empress hated these ghost dealers very much.
Fortunately, he didn't use this method, otherwise he would have been burned.
Although this level of will-o'-the-wisps would definitely not be able to do anything to him, it was extremely embarrassing for Lin Jichen, as an elder of the Sword Sect and a master of enlightenment, to be made so embarrassed by a group of ghost soldiers.
Seeing that this method failed, Lin Jichen considered whether to break in violently, but the next second he made himself laugh stupidly.
"Damn it, why should I even think about sneaking in? My brother came here to look for the female slayer's soul in a dignified way, so why don't you just go to her directly!" .??.??
Lin Jichen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he couldn't blame him. The last time he went to the ghost world was so thrilling that he still had lingering fears.
If it weren't for helping Chu Tianhan's parents find their daughter, he would never want to go to the ghost world again, this eerie place.
Thinking of this, Lin Jichen thought about how to word it for a while, and then sent it to the female slave with the jade pendant of sound transmission.
It’s not surprising that the female demon is in his contact list. In front of the Ghost Hall, after the female demon helped Elder Xinqin preserve Luo Muxian’s soul, she asked Lin Jichen to leave a sound transmission mark so that he could come to the ghost world to find her in the future.
return.
Moreover, Lin Jichen accidentally sent a distress signal to the female slave before in the corner of the wilderness. She was able to receive it, so there is no reason why she can't receive it now?
However, after waiting for a long time, Lin Jichen did not receive any reply.
have no choice
Lin Jichen had no choice but to continue waiting, but after waiting for a full day in Fengdu, the female slayer still did not reply to him.
This puzzled Lin Jichen.
How come a day has passed and there is still no movement at all?
Lin Jichen felt a little sick. He couldn't keep doing this and waiting. He still had a lot of things to do.
In order to buy time, Lin Jichen thought for a while and finally decided to find a way to enter the ghost world by himself.
Anyway, he has been to the ghost world once and the route is very clear.
But what troubled him was whether he should violently enter the ghost world.
Breaking in by force will definitely cause turmoil in the ghost world, and everyone in the ghost world will come to trouble him. He is not afraid of other ghost cultivators, but is afraid of meeting those ghost kings.
But if you don't force your way in, there's nothing you can do about it.
etc!
Lin Jichen suddenly thought of something and immediately contacted a familiar person, Shang Lingqing!
Shang Lingqing has a Ghost Moon Seizing Heaven Cloak, which was obtained by killing the Yinmoluo ghost in the Taoist realm. This equipment can freely enter the ghost realm.
After contacting Shang Lingqing, Lin Jichen expressed that he wanted to borrow her cloak.
The other party agreed without thinking. This cloak was given to her by Lin Jichen. Even if she wanted to go back to Shang Lingqing, she would not say no.
"Then shall I come to Fengdu now?" Shang Lingqing asked.
"You don't have to go to such trouble, you can teleport things through the air." Lin Jichen smiled and activated the function of his sound transmission jade pendant, and successfully obtained Shang Lingqing's cloak!
This is the benefit of the Tianpin Sound Transmission Jade Pendant. It is extremely convenient to transmit objects through the air.
If modern society had this technology, takeout, express delivery and logistics companies would have to close down immediately.
