Chapter 70: The Underworld is also showing off
Admittedly, I am the one with a little brain twitch.
Even if I wanted to retreat, I couldn't. One of the ghost soldiers guarding the ghosts happened to be standing behind me.
It was impossible to force their way in. Most of the auras emanating from these ghost soldiers were those of third-level ghost cultivators, equivalent to the strength of third-grade Xuanshi. In addition, the ghost soldiers maintaining order at the bridgehead totaled about a hundred or eighty in number. Jumping out now was no different from courting death.
Because I didn't have chains on my hands like the ghosts around me, I could only hold the shackles with my hands and silently followed the team forward.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly. Following this group of ghosts, we passed the checkpoint at the bridge head and arrived at Meng Po's location.
Because of the sweaty man holding the ghost-head knife, I subconsciously held my breath. My eyes secretly looked over. This Meng Po always gave me a feeling of being out of reach.
Meng Po raised her head as if she had sensed something. Her eyes were red and she glanced around casually.
I quickly lowered my head and followed the ghost's footsteps. The finish line was only a few meters away from me.
Just when I was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Meng Po suddenly stood up, staring at me with her eyes, and shouted hoarsely.
"How dare you deceive me, Grandma! Come on, catch this stowaway!"
I was so frightened that my hair stood on end. I pushed away the ghosts around me and ran towards the bridge.
"Someone is sneaking across the border!"
"Someone escaped from prison!"
The ghost soldiers rushed up immediately. At first, they thought they were sneaking in, but later they found that the prisoners in hell were restless. They immediately split into two groups and quickly approached.
I didn't care about much at this moment. I drew out the ghost-beating ruler and rushed forward to meet the ghost soldiers.
Before I even came into contact with the ghost soldiers, I felt a chill behind me. Almost subconsciously, I threw the ghost-beating ruler and the thunder talisman behind me.
Boom! Bang! There was a roar of explosion, followed by a sharp pain. I flew up into the air, accidentally passing the surrounding ghost soldiers, and fell into the ghosts that were about to enter the town.
An angry curse came from behind: "You little bastard, you actually dared to do something to Grandma, I don't believe that you, a grown man, don't want to go back. Wait until you come back and see how Grandma will deal with you!"
I shuddered all over, jumped up from the ground, and ran away with the crowd.
The ghosts around me were all very dull because they drank Meng Po soup. They moved slowly. I ran over a dozen ghosts. I stood out in the ghost team.
"Catch this jailbreaker."
"No, he was a smuggler. Meng Po said he was alive."
"You are stupid. How can you sneak into hell?"
At the entrance of the town, two ghost soldiers who looked like officers were seriously discussing whether I was escaping from prison or sneaking across the border, and they seemed to have no intention of stopping me.
I can only express my helplessness. It's my first time, I don't understand and no one can tell me! Even ghosts don't want to go to hell, am I sick?
The ghost soldiers on the bridge were extremely fast, closing the distance between them and me in the blink of an eye.
I was even crazier now. I didn't want to go to hell or under the Naihe Bridge. Even Buddha didn't go to hell, so why should I? At that moment, my legs burst out with strength and my speed increased a lot. Unfortunately, there were too many ghosts. Using the thunder talisman would cause endless killing.
I could only rush out of the crowd and towards the direction of the ghost soldiers. The two officers just turned their heads and looked at me with disdain. They turned their heads and continued to discuss whether it was possible to sneak into hell.
After leaving the crowd, I was finally able to let go. In fact, I dared to do this because I found that Meng Po did not chase me, but just stood at the bridge and watched. This made me feel relieved.
The thunder talisman was used and exploded one after another in front.
Boom! Boom, boom, boom! There were several explosions in succession. The Yin soldiers in front were blown to pieces. The road was also cleared at this time.
Without any hesitation, I ran .
"Stop, you are surrounded. Don't put up any unnecessary resistance. We are pursuing the policy of leniency for those who confess and severity for those who resist."
The two officers finally lost their composure. One of them immediately straightened his back and shouted righteously.
I was stunned for a moment. Why did this word sound so familiar? Shouldn't these two rush over and try their best to stop me? Why did it sound like they were here to make fun of me?
"Stop, or we'll start fighting." As he spoke, another officer rolled up his sleeves and posed arrogantly.
This really scared me. I immediately took out a dozen thunder talismans and threw them over.
"Boom!" There was a loud noise. A big hole appeared on the ground. The two officers had already flown into the sky. There was a lingering echo.
"Fuck! I'm the city lord's brother-in-law and you dare to do that to me!"
I was speechless. Even in the underworld, showing off is popular! If you don't show off, how can I take special care of you?
I regretted it after I passed the level. There were more evil soldiers in this town. They were ferocious and held various weapons. They were shouting while running.
"The city lord's brother-in-law was killed. Avenge him!"
"Catch the fugitive!"
"Someone is sneaking across the border. Catch the sneakers!"
I was trying to run away, but the chaotic slogans made my steps weaken and I almost fell. Who are they trying to catch, or am I the one who got caught?
I couldn't think of anything else at this moment. There were bungalows and courtyards on both sides of the gate. It was impossible to run on the street. Only here, where the terrain was complicated, could I find a place to hide.
The doors of the houses on both sides were all closed. I really couldn't find a place to hide for a while. Fortunately, there were many alleys here, and I avoided two or three waves of ghost soldiers who came to search .
But the situation was getting worse and worse. More and more Yin soldiers were searching. It was okay at the beginning. In less than ten minutes, I encountered eight or nine waves. It was almost like a frightened rabbit being chased. There were shouts of fighting and killing everywhere, and I could only run around exhausted.
At this time, a young man in his twenties was standing at the door of a house, looking out. When he saw the ghost soldiers coming, he quickly hid back.
I was suddenly filled with hope. This guy doesn't look clean either! He is most likely the stowaway who caused me to be chased everywhere! I can't let him enjoy his life here while I am being chased like a rabbit.
So I took advantage of a wave of ghost soldiers just passing by and rushed over with a few quick steps.
The young man just showed his head at this time, and his face met mine. He was immediately surprised and wanted to open his mouth.
How could I dare to give him this opportunity? I reached out and covered his mouth, and pushed him in. After closing the door, I looked at him carefully.
This was a young man of similar age to me, with a delicate face. Strangely, he didn't have much ghostly aura. At this moment, this young man was trembling on the ground as I pinned him down.
"What are you afraid of? Let me ask you, were you sneaking across the border just now?" I was very angry, so my tone was naturally not very good.
The young man whimpered, shook his head desperately, and pointed at my hand. I then realized that I had been holding it so tightly that I was almost suffocating.
But I have no intention of letting go now. If this guy wants to die together with me, then I will be more wronged than Dou E.
Thinking of this, I picked up the young man, but he felt as light as a ball of cotton.
This is a small courtyard with three houses. Push open the door and enter the living room. There is nothing ordinary inside except some chairs.
I threw the young man to the ground. I closed the door and put a thunder talisman on it to prevent any changes. Then I asked unhappily, "Tell me, are you a stowaway?"
The young man was thrown to the ground, and he cried out, "Hero! Spare my life! I have never done anything other than stealing and robbing to make a living."
I frowned. It didn't seem like this guy was trying to fool me. Did I misunderstand?
Just as I hesitated, the young man on the ground suddenly turned over, his body was as light as a feather, and he appeared behind me in a flash. But I only heard a bang! Then there was a cry of "Aiya!"
I turned my head and looked at the young man lying on the ground in a strange way. He had been blasted by the thunder talisman until his outside was burnt and his inside was tender. He lay on the ground with his eyes rolled up and his body trembling constantly.
Ghosts are yin. Thunder is extremely strong and yang. It just restrains them. This is also the normal reaction after being struck by thunder.
What makes me curious is that this thunder talisman is a third-grade thunder talisman! Ordinary ghosts would have been shattered if struck by such a direct blow. This young man doesn't look very yin, but he was hit by the thunder talisman and didn't disintegrate. This is strange.
This young man was incredibly fast. If I hadn't held back, he would have run away by now.
Seeing him lying on the ground pitifully, I didn't have any mercy. Instead, I quickly tore off a piece of his clothes and twisted it into a rope, and tied his hands and feet tightly. For safety, I simply bit my middle finger and drew a sealing spell on the rope. Then I walked around the room.
I couldn't help being careful in this place. So I simply pasted thunder talismans on all the windows. Still feeling uneasy, I even checked the rat holes.
When I walked back, I was shocked again.
The young man, sitting on the chair, looked at me with a bitter face, and the rope I used to tie him was thrown on the ground.
I walked over speechlessly and looked at him for a long time before I said, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Ni Ge, and I came here through the underworld. What about you?"
"My name is Shi Qian. Can you please remove those talismans? They are too creepy!" The young man complained with a bitter face.
Shi Qian! Why does this name sound so familiar? Isn't this the same name as Shi Qian from the Liangshan 108 heroes?
"Your name is Shi Qian, you won't tell me that you have any relationship with Liangshan!" I asked depressedly. I definitely thought that this guy was pretending to be cool and just picked a random name to fool people. But you should also find a more ordinary one!
