When Wu Ming went to the underworld this time, he did not use any means of concealment and was clearly seen by the ghosts at a glance.
When they saw a living person appearing, the ghosts in Baliupo not only were not angry, but smiled and pointed, as if they had seen a magical animal.
Feeling that these ghosts were not malicious, Wu Ming didn't care and asked: "You little ghosts, have you seen a living person come in?"
"Who are you? Do you know where this place is?"
"It's just that this is no place for you to stay. Go back to where you came from."
"Come on, come on, you are a young boy with delicate skin and tender flesh, and you are here looking for someone. You are really tired of living!"
More than a dozen little ghosts were making noises and shouting to drive Wu Ming away.
Wu Ming frowned slightly when he heard the sound, put on the official uniform of the underworld, and shouted: "Be brave, look who I am!"
He was wearing a green official robe and an inspection badge around his waist.
When the little ghosts around him saw it, their faces turned pale with fright, and they all ran away in the blink of an eye.
When you are alive, you are afraid of officials, and you are not immune to it even when you are dead.
Seeing these little devils scattering in all directions, Wu Ming snorted and strode away, heading straight to the Zhu family compound.
"The villain Zhu Fusheng, Tian is the upright person in Baliupo. I didn't know that Shangguan was here to visit. Please forgive me for being rude!" Seeing Wu Ming approaching, Zhu Yuanwai hurriedly greeted him with a fawning smile on his face.
Wu Ming looked towards Yuan Zhu and found that this man had a ghostly aura around him. It looked like he had been in the fire for a hundred years, so he could be considered an old ghost.
What's more important is that the ghost aura on Zhu Yuanwai's body is pale white, just like the ghost aura on those Japanese people, they are all good ghosts who have done no evil.
There are good people and bad people in life.
After death, there are also good ghosts and evil ghosts.
Evil ghosts often do evil things, and their ghost energy is as dark as ink. It is very easy to distinguish between the two, except for a few.
"You have a nice place here. Baliupo is very prosperous and the people's hearts are simple!" Wu Ming responded with a smile, with a hint of sincerity in his politeness.
After all, when they came to Baliupo in the underworld, many Japanese people saw the living person. Instead of rushing to suck the Yang Qi, they advised him to leave quickly.
This shows that the Japanese people in Baliupo have no intention of harming others, which is commendable.
For ghosts, the yang energy of living people is a great tonic, and there are many benefits to drinking it. On Yinfeng Mountain, the dishes served by the ghost king Hu Jiumei are things like human hearts and livers. In comparison, these do not eat people
The good ghosts are definitely a group of law-abiding citizens.
Hearing Wu Ming's compliment, Zhu Fusheng's face lit up, but he did not forget his original intention and asked: "Sir, I wonder if you came to Baliupo for business or private matters?"
"Private matters, there is a man named Wang Haogu who was brought down to the underworld by a gambler and came to your Baliupo to attend a wedding banquet. Do you know about this?" When talking about business, the smile on Wu Ming's face slowly disappeared.
Put on a serious expression.
Zhu Fusheng muttered Wang Haogu's name. After thinking for a long time, he showed a sudden look and said quickly: "Sir, are you talking about a bad gambling king?"
"Bad gambling king?"
Wu Ming instinctively realized that this rotten gambling king was related to Wang Haogu, so he asked: "Tell me, what is going on with this rotten gambling king?"
"Three days ago, I sent out an invitation to invite everyone to come here for a wedding banquet today. But as soon as the invitation was sent out, a gambler brought a man from the earthly world, saying he was here for the banquet. The man claimed to be the bad gambling king
, I excused myself and said that the wedding banquet will be in three days, but that man stayed in the village and refused to leave no matter what, and he would not leave until he had a good time gambling!" Speaking of this bad gambling king, Zhu Yuanwai was also a little annoyed.
You are a person in the world of the world, and you are stuck in the underworld and refuse to leave. It is unreasonable to say this to others.
Although the folk customs in Baliupo in the underworld are simple, there are still some people who like to gamble. The bad gambling king stayed in Baliupo for three days, and many corrupt people came to complain. How could Zhu Yuanwai not be angry?
"According to what you say, this top-notch Yangjian person may really be the person I'm looking for. Let's go and find him. If this person is really Wang Haogu, I will take him away in a moment!" Wu Mingzhao!
He waved his hand, signaling Zhu to go out and find someone.
Zhu Yuanwai did not dare to shirk, so he could only invite Wu Ming into the courtyard and sit at the main seat of the wedding banquet.
Then, he led two servants and personally led people to find the bad gambling king.
Sitting at the main seat of the wedding banquet, Wu Ming's eyes were like a torch, slowly scanning among the many guests.s
Most of the guests here are residents of Baliupo, a few are ghosts who came uninvited, and guests who received invitations.
Sitting on the highest-level main seat, Wu Ming looked at dozens of tables of ghost guests and whispered to the people around him.
After asking, I found out that today was the day when Zhu Yuanwai's daughter was getting married, and most of the prominent people from the nearby villages were here.
"Sir, you are from the human world. The food and tea here may not be to your taste!" Sitting with Wu Ming were all gray-haired old men. They all looked like they were in their seventies or eighties.
.
Hearing such words, Wu Ming waved his hands and didn't care, and said with a smile: "I'm just joining in the fun, you can do whatever you want, don't pay attention to me!"
Even though he said that, as the only secret official at the scene, Wu Ming's every move attracted much attention.
Not to mention the kid below, even the ghost elder Su Lao who is also in the main position stutters when he speaks, for fear that if he does something wrong, he will be blamed.
On this great festive day, the atmosphere was awkward due to his own reasons, which made Wu Ming a little embarrassed.
After lowering his head and thinking for a moment, Wu Ming took out the old wine he bought in Jiuxiang Town and handed it to the maid waiting at the side: "Pour these ten jars of old wine for all the guests present!"
When Zhu Yuanwai was alive, he was a rich man from the countryside. After his death, he went to the underworld, and there was no shortage of people to serve him.
Wu Ming took a quick glance before entering and found that there were at least dozens of maids, servants, and servants here.
After hearing Wu Ming's instructions, several maids held the wine jars and began to distribute the wine to the ghosts.
One ghost poured down a bowl of wine, and the whole courtyard was filled with the aroma of wine, and many little ghosts swallowed their saliva greedily.
"Today is the day when Mr. Zhu marries his daughter. It's a great day. Everyone is celebrating!" Wu Ming held the wine glass, gestured to the ghosts present, and drank all the strong wine in the glass.
With Wu Ming leading by example, many little ghosts smiled and thanked him, and couldn't wait to taste the wine.
When ghosts drink alcohol, they are different from ordinary people. The ghosts do not condense into ghost bodies, they just inhale sharply while holding the wine glass.
Once the alcohol was inhaled by the little ghosts, the taste of the wine would become lighter. After taking a few sips, the little ghosts were swaying with silly smiles on their faces, looking as if they were drunk.
"Sir, let's toast you!" Old ghosts of some status have condensed their own ghost bodies, which are not much different from living people.
Wu Ming picked up the wine glass and drank three glasses in a row. His heroic move attracted repeated applause, and the previous embarrassment was wiped away.
Between cups and cups, everyone was just like when they were alive, drinking wine and bragging.
Wu Ming was somewhat stunned. If he hadn't known that this was the underworld and the people present were underworld brats, he would have thought that this was a group of living people.
"I've already told you, I really don't know any Yin officials, so just let me go back and continue gambling!"
"Hey, don't pull on my clothes. I don't owe you any gambling debts. Do you need to come here and kidnap someone?"
Along with the sound of arguing, Wu Ming looked up.
When he saw it, it was Wang Haogu, the father of Little Narcissus, who was brought in by Zhu Yuanwai and his servants.
"Humph!" Wu Ming snorted coldly when he saw Wang Haogu's appearance.
Hearing the sound, Wang Haogu raised his head and looked inside. His eyes met with Wu Ming's, and he suddenly showed a bit of joy: "Uncle, why are you here too!"
"puff"
Hearing this call from my uncle, the little guys who were drinking all spit out their wine.
Putting down their wine glasses, everyone looked at each other, at Wu Ming, who was sitting in the first place, and at Wang Haogu, who looked like a rogue with a playful smile. They didn't look like a family.
"Uncle, are you dead or alive? You look so elegant in your clothes. They say you are a Yin official. What do these Yin officials do? Are they the same as those officials in the Yang world?" Wang Haogu waved his hand.
He opened the ghost servant holding him and looked at Wu Ming sitting on the main seat, his eyes almost gleaming.
Wu Ming's eyes were cold, and without even looking at Wang Haogu, he said: "Little Narcissus' mother, she cried and told me to take you back! But looking at you, you don't want to miss Shu!"
"
"Hey, I'm happy here, don't miss Shu!" Wang Haogu smiled very proudly, as if he remembered something, and whispered quickly: "Uncle, you don't know, this is a good place! I lost money in gambling, so I just want to say it back.
I'll pay it back in the mortal world, but these ghosts don't mind at all that I owe the debt, and they will continue to gamble with me! This bet lasted me three days and three nights, it was so enjoyable!"
“Enjoyable!”
Wu Ming sneered and said, "Money owed to people can lead to death. Can you escape money owed to ghosts as a human being or as a ghost? Look at your arm, what do you think it is?"
Because of gambling, Wang Haogu's sleeves had long fallen to his arms.
At a glance, there were more than a dozen black handprints on Wang Haogu's arm, which looked like they were left by ghosts.
"Oh, where did these handprints come from? Why are there so many of them?" Wang Haogu also discovered the problem and looked at his hands with a look of panic.
Wu Ming glanced at it carelessly and explained: "Don't look at it. You owe money to ghosts. How can they find you if they don't leave a mark? Do you think that if you lose money gambling in the underworld, you will be gone when you return to the earth?"
Can you afford it?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Haogu also panicked and begged: "Uncle, uncle, please save me! I owe hundreds of taels of silver in the past three days. I don't want to die?"
"Is it the silver that I owe from the underworld, or from the earthly world?"
"At first it was the money from the underworld, but then I felt it was not enough, so I used the money from the earth as a bet. I didn't expect it to be like this. If I had known that these ghosts would chase me out after I returned to the earth, I wouldn't have borrowed money like this.
too much!"
At this point, Wang Haogu still thought that he had borrowed too much money, but he did not expect that he should not gamble at all.
Facing a gambler like Wang Haogu, Wu Ming had nothing to say. He just waved his hand to Member Zhu: "Take him down. Since he likes the underworld so much, don't let him go back!"
"Yes, sir!" Zhu Yuanwai waved his hand, and immediately a servant rushed up, escorted Wang Haogu and walked outside.
Seeing that Wu Ming was not going to take him back to the sun, Wang Haogu was completely confused and quickly shouted: "Uncle, this is wrong! I am the biological father of Little Narcissus, you can't ignore me, I am her biological father! Uncle,
