Chapter 107 My Golden Body is Too Immortal
Opposite the restaurant!
Hu Jun was treated to delicious food and wine, and he ate very happily and was a little tipsy.
Lin Ye also learned a lot about ghost merchants from Hu Jun.
Ghost merchants do have a low status in this alien world.
Practitioners look down on ghost merchants, and even ordinary people are the same, thinking that they are unscrupulous by making money from the dead. This is why the teahouse owner lowered his voice when talking to Hu Jun.
Trading with ghost merchants is not a glorious thing.
Lin Ye thought about the status of ghost merchants in the other world and felt that it was somewhat similar to that of corpse collectors in the real world.
It is true that you can earn a lot by fishing out a corpse, but few people are willing to work in this industry.
"Brother Lin Ye, being a ghost merchant is really hard, but I have no choice. My great-grandfather couldn't survive and took this path, so I, as his descendant, have no choice either."
After drinking too much, Hu Jun complained to Lin Ye, saying that he had never thought of becoming a ghost merchant, but there was no way. He was a ghost merchant for ten generations, and the most important thing was that the ghost merchant could only be passed down to one person. He had no choice but to become one.
Once you become a ghost merchant, the amazing thing is that you can only give birth to one child, and it is guaranteed to be a boy.
Hu Jun is already the fourth generation. His great-grandfather is the first generation ghost merchant. He was a homeless child who could not even afford food and shelter. He was about to starve to death when he was met by another ghost merchant who was exactly the tenth generation. The other party asked Hu Jun's great-grandfather if he was willing to become a ghost merchant and told him the pros and cons of becoming a ghost merchant.
Hu Jun’s great-grandfather didn’t think so much. If he didn’t become a ghost businessman, he would starve to death. How could he have ten generations? He agreed without even thinking about it.
"It's hard to find a wife after becoming a ghost merchant. When we ghost merchants marry, we have to tell them clearly. Who would be willing to marry us? Once they heard that I was a ghost merchant, matchmakers were willing to come to my house to act as matchmakers..."
Hu Jun kept complaining, and Dao Hai couldn't stand it anymore: "Come on, you ghost merchants are profiteers, even more profit-oriented than those merchants. Those sick people were forced to lose everything just to trade some ghost energy with you."
"You are just talking nonsense, monk. The ghosts in the ghost market either propose deals that are impossible to reach, or they are just a bunch of poor ghosts who have nothing else to offer except the ghost Yin Qi. Moreover, not everyone can give ghost Yin Qi. Some ghosts take advantage of their strength to force us to make deals with them. Last time I went to the ghost market, a ghost actually wanted the royal concubine's underwear. If I didn't trade with him, he wouldn't let me trade with other ghosts. In order to get that thing, I sold all my belongings to get money and asked the eunuchs in the palace to get one, risking my head."
"The most important thing is that he is a eunuch ghost. What use is there for a eunuch ghost to have those underwear?"
The corner of Lin Ye's mouth twitched. It seemed that being a ghost businessman was indeed not easy.
"You said that our Ghost Yin Qi is expensive, but you practitioners don't have to buy it. We spent ten generations to obtain the Ghost Yin Qi, so why should we sell it to you practitioners at a low price?"
Facing Hu Jun's question, Dao Hai was at a loss for words. After a while, he said, "What about those who need the ghost's Yin Qi to heal their illnesses?"
"Oh, those people should have also come to you practitioners, right? You just let them find the ghost energy, why... do you want us to sell it cheaply? Why are you not willing to pay for them? Aren't you Buddhist disciples here to save all living beings?"
"You cultivators are so high and mighty, looking down on us ghost merchants. Even if this ghost Yin Qi was sold at a low price, it would still be bought by you cultivators, who would then sell it to treat people's illnesses, making money from incense and gaining a good reputation. Why do you get all the good things in the world? Pah!"
Dao Hai was speechless after being rebuked by Hu Jun. He was not good at debating with others. Lin Ye also laughed when he heard it from the side. It seemed that Hu Jun was full of resentment towards practitioners.
"Brother Hu, let's not talk about this. I heard that you can let other people enter the ghost market?"
"Yes, we ghost merchants can bring people into the ghost market. If Brother Lin wants to go in, all he needs is this pass."
Hu Jun reached into his waist and soon took out a bronze token with the word "Yi" written on it.
Yi: whether there is a transaction or not.
Lin Ye had been in the other world for so long that he had some understanding of its culture. In the earliest writings in the other world, merchants were called Yi people.
Swish!
Lin Ye was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and instantly put the token into his arms.
The guy in front of me is drunk. Who knows if he will regret it when he sobers up.
"Come on, Brother Hu, I'll toast you a glass."
After a few drinks, Hu Jun collapsed completely. Lin Ye asked the waiter to help him to the room to rest.
"Junior brother, do you want to enter the ghost market?"
Dao Hai watched silently from the sidelines as Lin Ye got Hu Jun drunk, and only asked about the confusion in his mind after they left the restaurant.
"I'm curious about the ghost market and want to go in and broaden my horizons."
"It's okay to enter the ghost market, but don't make deals with those ghosts casually. The rules of the ghost market are that once a deal is made, it must be completed."
Dao Hai reminded him, and Lin Ye nodded to show that he understood. The two of them walked towards the City God Temple while chatting.
It was already night, and there was candlelight coming from the City God Temple. It was very quiet.
Lin Ye and Dao Hai looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes. There was actually no Yincha guarding the City God Temple in this county town.
Although the City God has not yet taken office in the county town, there must still be ghost messengers. Why is this City God Temple empty?
"Go in and take a look."
Dao Hai was very direct. He walked forward, pushed open the door of the City God Temple, and stepped in. Lin Ye pondered for a moment and finally followed him.
Inside the City God Temple, there is a statue of the City God. However, when Lin Ye used the Qi-Seeing Technique to take a look, he found that the face of the statue was not clear, and the entire statue had no charm at all.
This shows that the statue of the City God has been abandoned, and when the new City God moves in, the statue will have to be replaced.
"Is there anyone... a shady guy?"
Daohai walked around the temple and didn't see the ghost, so he just started shouting loudly.
"Who dares to break into the City God Temple?"
The next moment, there was a response, and six burly ghost messengers appeared at the temple gate.
"It is a serious crime to trespass into the City God Temple!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the six ghost messengers surrounded Lin Ye and Dao Hai.
"Um...please don't do anything, this time we..."
However, these six Yinchai did not give Lin Ye any chance to explain. Six chains were swung out at the same time, and Dao Hai on the side also became furious.
"Amitabha, I want to see how you guys take me down."
Daohai raised his Zen staff and fought against four of the Yin messengers. These four Yin messengers were not as weak as the Yin messengers in Shangyang County. The four of them formed a formation and surrounded Daohai with tight iron chains, which really trapped Daohai.
Seeing this scene, Lin Ye sighed, and facing the remaining two Yincha, he slowly said: "Since there is no way to make sense, let's fight first."
call out!
The tiger roar force was activated, Lin Yeren was like a ferocious tiger, his whole body was like a furnace. Facing the iron chain swept by Yin Cha, he did not dodge, but directly reached out and grabbed the iron chain in his palm.
When the two ghost officials saw this scene, their expressions changed. This iron chain was specially equipped by the underworld for them to capture souls. If a living person touches it, the soul in the body will be affected, and the most obvious thing is that the reaction will become slow.
However, Lin Ye did not react in this way. He even exerted force with the hand holding the iron chain, directly pulling one of the Yin Cha forward a few steps, and then punched him without hesitation.
These two ghost messengers naturally didn't know that Lin Ye, who possessed the Soul-Fixing Orb, was not afraid of the Soul-Hooking Rope at all. To him, it was just an ordinary iron chain.
On the other hand, the vigorous blood energy in Lin Ye's body was very uncomfortable for the Yin Cha. After several rounds of fighting, the two Yin Cha were no match for Lin Ye.
On the other side, Dao Hai, who was covered in Buddha's light, waved his Zen staff like a golden dragon, and the four ghosts were beaten back step by step.
Bang!
In the end, Daohai's Zen stick hit one of the ghost messengers, splitting the ghost messenger in half and then completely dissipating.
The remaining three ghost messengers were terrified, as this would cost them ten years of training.
“Stop… stop!”
One of the ghost messengers couldn't help but tremble and speak, but Daohai, who was already mad with fighting, had no chance to stop. As soon as the ghost messenger finished speaking, the next moment the Zen stick fell on his head.
One stick and one evil spirit!
Dao Hai chopped down one after another. The two Yin Cha who were fighting with Lin Ye saw the miserable state of their companion and did not dare to fight any longer. They turned around and ran away.
But Lin Ye would not give them a chance to escape. He formed seals with his hands, and a standing Buddha appeared behind him.
The standing Buddha was shrouded in Buddha's light and could not be seen clearly. However, as Lin Ye's hand seals changed, a palm appeared in the Buddha's light, and then suddenly slapped a ghost that was escaping.
Bang!
After a big fight, the ghost was beaten to pieces.
The Buddha's light dissipated, and the standing Buddha behind Lin Ye also disappeared, but this scene caused silence at the scene. Even the four ghost messengers who had just recovered were dumbfounded.
What did they see?
Is there a golden statue in Buddhism that can give people a big bag?
Aren’t the golden statues of Buddha solemn and dignified?
"Amitabha!"
Dao Hai tightened the Zen stick in his hand and chanted "Amitabha" softly. The abbot said that Junior Brother Dao Ji's affinity with Buddhism is unique.
Lin Ye himself was shocked and stood there not knowing what to say.
He formed seals to trigger the golden body to attack, but he did not expect that his golden body would be able to attack in this way.
Who the hell did you learn this from? It's so dishonest.
