"Didn't you say that all the people who get on the bus are evil spirits? Then there are such hungry ghosts?"
Seeing that no one was paying attention, I couldn't help but say something to Zhuge Zhengqi.
The ugly Taoist priest replied in a low voice:
"No one who got on the bus died, they were all ghosts who died violently.
Although most of them went astray and committed the five sins, they were killed.
However, there are still some who died by memorizing the characters.
These starving ghosts either suffered from mining disasters or were starved to death due to other natural disasters and accidents.
Because you are too obsessed with food before you die, you will starve to death.
Although these starving ghosts did no evil in life, they did harm to others after death, which is enough to qualify them to get on the bus."
When Zhuge Zhengqi was talking, I kept staring at King Yama and Jia Lan.
While the ugly Taoist priest finished talking about the starving ghosts, I brought the topic to the two of them and said:
"Brother, didn't you say that Jia Lan kills people like crazy?
Because even gods can't do this, why did you just go against your will?
If he had even 10% sympathy for those two starving ghosts, he would not have ended up like this for those people who died in vain at his hands."
After hearing what I said, Zhuge Zhengqi turned his head and looked at me.
He had a strange expression on his face, as if he had been hit by something I said.
After a pause, he said in a voice that sounded like a mosquito:
"Donor, just pretend you didn't see it.
When we get to the underworld and hand over our souls, we will go back."
Seeing the way Zhuge Zheng was about to speak but hesitated, he probably saw something.
But now that King Yama and Jia Lan are sitting across from us, we still have to avoid it.
At this time, Long Gun, who had finished watching the excitement, said to King Yama:
"Is it because I have been locked up for a long time? Why do I feel something is different?
When I got in the car, something felt wrong. I didn't think much of it at that time, but now it feels more and more wrong.
Forget it, I'm too lazy to think about it, just leave it like that
Anyway, I’m about to get off the bus, I’ll think about it after I get back.”
After hearing what Long Gun said, King Yama smiled slightly and said:
"Whoever gets on this train will feel a little uncomfortable.
Fortunately, there won’t be any new souls picked up later, this train goes directly to the underworld, so there shouldn’t be anything else going on.”
Long Gun was quite dissatisfied with King Yama's words. He curled his lips and said:
"Don't say it so early. Who would have thought that with King Yama in charge, this train would be so troubled?
If you don't stop, you won't stop. If anyone wants to get on the bus, there is always a way.
I'm a little curious about what unlucky guy you got on the bus. Is it worth it for someone to take the risk of being destroyed physically and mentally to cause trouble for you?"
While speaking, Long Zhong stared at Jia Lan. After looking up and down at this outdated god, he wanted to say something.
Just when Long Gun was about to speak, the carriage door opened again, and then Gui Wuming, who had just walked out, walked in with two people.
The two of them looked familiar, they were Li Fang and Xue Yuan who were the first ones to get on the bus with Hengdegui.
Their faces were as ugly as they could be. After being brought in by Gui Wuming, they knelt down directly in front of King Yama.
The little old man pursed his lips at the Lord of Hell and said:
"These two boys said that they had caused a big trouble, and that they were the ones guarding the starving ghost who came in just now.
The two of them knew that hungry ghosts were difficult to deal with, so they tied them to their seats when they came in.
Somehow, all the starving ghosts managed to break free from the ropes.
These two little fools also said that there was a commotion in this carriage, but when they saw the starving man they were guarding being brought out, they realized that they themselves were the cause of the trouble.
You two boys, talk to King Yama yourselves."
Li Fang knelt on the ground, kowtowed to King Yama first, wiped his cold sweat, and said:
"Your Highness.
We both failed in our duties and did not expect those starving ghosts to break free from the ropes.
It’s not that we are quibbling, this has never happened before.
When did a starving, single-minded person become interested in something?"
While Li Fang was talking, Xue Yuan placed a dozen rope ends in his hand on the table in front of me.
Looking at the broken ends of the rope, it looked like it had been cut by a sharp blade.
The meaning of these two people was very obvious. They were telling King Yama that someone had cut off the ropes binding the starving ghosts.
The two of them were only accused of lax supervision, and other crimes could not be pinned on them.
King Yama pushed the end of the rope in front of me with a half-smile and said:
"Look here, who did this?"
I picked up the end of the rope, glanced at it pretendingly, and then said:
"If we had to say who was the most suspect, it would be the fat white man Ge Huang.
The fat man had just left the carriage, and something happened not long after.
What a coincidence.
Gu Long once said that there are not so many coincidences in this world.
There are too many coincidences, so someone did it deliberately
But you can’t take it seriously, that’s what I said.
Apart from the fat man named Ge, I really can’t think of anyone else who has the ability to hide the truth from Lao Li and Lao Xue, and at the same time cut the ropes of those starving ghosts.”
"Ge Huang."
Hearing me mention this name, Li Fang and Xue Yuan looked at each other, and then Xue Yuan said:
"It can't be Ge Huang. When he just walked out of here, he greeted us both.
After Ge Huang left, before the two of us ate, we made a point of checking the ropes on the starving ghost.
The rope was still good at that time
Ge Huang didn’t come back either, there should be someone else who cut the rope.”
After hearing what he said, I immediately retorted:
"It's hard to say this.
You are all half-immortals, so I really cast a little spell to take advantage of you when you are not paying attention.
I told you in the living room that this guy named Ge is an extraordinary talent and a destined god.
His abilities are probably better than yours."
Li Fang said:
"Although Senior Brother Ge's ability is superior to the two of us, we are all mortals and not gods.
The difference in strength is not as big as you think
If Ge Huang really takes action, we may not be his opponents, but we will definitely feel that someone is casting a spell.
If he wants to cut off the ropes of so many starving ghosts without anyone noticing, he must be a god."
Just now I heard Gui Wuming praise Ge Huang like a flower, but it turns out it was nothing more than that.
This involves a professional issue, so I can’t say anything else.
Seeing me closing my mouth, King Yama turned to Gui Wuming and said:
"Since I don't have any clue, it's up to you to handle the matter if it happened in your car.
Don't look at me like that, I'm just a guest."
The little old man sighed helplessly, and then said to Li Fang and Xue Yuan who were kneeling on the ground:
"Until the matter is clarified, you two brothers cannot leave even if you arrive in the underworld.
When will we figure it out and when will you two go back?"
