Volume 1: Wrath of the West Chapter 2 Beauty in the Mass Grave
"Of course, many of you must be thinking about this. After you go in, you can just run away without taking the token. No problem, as long as you are not afraid of being shot by the gunmen I placed outside."
"But if it were me, I would definitely not run away. Even if I ran away, I would just continue to be a prostitute or an actor, which are lowly jobs. I wouldn't make any money, and I would be looked down upon all my life. I might as well never know what it's like to be a woman. Instead of living a cowardly life, I might as well give it a try."
"I can tell you very clearly that as long as you can bring the token out and hand it over to me, you will immediately become a member of our 'Xiuling'."
"Unloading the ridge?"
"The 'Xi Ling' who dominates Sanxiang and has connections in both the black and white worlds?"
"I heard that the young leader of Xiling is a sworn brother of the warlord Luo Laowai?!"...
Although all of them were from the lower class, there were many well-informed people among them who had heard many rumors about the "Xiangling" of the big underworld gangs.
But they didn't know that these words were like thunder in Xu Rui's ears.
"Xiang Ling, Luo Laowai, Ghost Blowing Out the Light?!!"
His face was full of disbelief.
He never thought that he would travel to the world of Ghost Blowing Out the Light? !
"It seems that many people have heard of our name, Xiangling. That's right, we are the Xiangling that dominates the three provinces, with influence spread across the two capitals and thirteen provinces. We have more than 100,000 disciples, and we are well-connected to both the black and white worlds."
The scarred man spoke with a strong sense of pride.
"Join us, Xiangling. Even if you are just an ordinary yellow belt disciple, you will receive a salary of two silver dollars a month. If you make more contributions, you will have a promising future. And with the protection of Xiangling, no one will dare to bully you. Glory and wealth will come naturally."
"Isn't this a hundred times better than being a beggar and living a mediocre life?!"
"Okay, I've said everything I need to say. It's up to you to decide whether you can join us at Xiling or not."
Waved.
The people from the Xiangling Sect who were around untied the ropes that bound everyone.
"Remember my words, go to the Li family tomb and take out the token. If you don't have the token, don't blame me for being rude."
"Send them in."
Many people walked into the mass grave without being pushed when they heard that they could join the Xiangling. Some timid people, or those who had never heard of Xiangling, were driven in.
Xu Rui didn't need anyone to chase him away.
Although he knew that he had traveled to the world of Ghost Blows Out the Light, he was not very interested in joining Xiangling.
After all, whether it was the plot in Pingshan or the later plot in Chonggu, the disciples of Xiangling suffered heavy casualties.
The life he wanted was called "wealth and glory", not "living on the edge of a knife".
"However, Xialingdao is a good springboard ."
No matter how dangerous Xiangling is, it is better than being a beggar who has no food to eat and is bullied by others.
After everyone had entered the mass grave, Shi Hu carefully took out four black tokens the size of an adult's palm from his arms.
The four tokens have the Eight Diagrams embossed on the back and the Four Symbols embossed on the front.
The aura is eerie and the tentacles are cold.
Bite the middle finger of your right hand and put it into the ghost's mouth.
The essence and blood were instantly devoured, and at the same time a connection was established with the token.
He followed the secret method passed down by the sect and chanted something.
"go."
My heart moved.
The Xuan Gui Bagua Order flew towards the mass grave like a flying bird.
After reaching the center, a ray of green light flew out and turned into the shape of a gossip, covering dozens of mass graves the size of a football field. At the same time, thick black mist spread from the token.
It seemed slow but was actually fast, and soon it filled the entire mass grave.
Dozens of hazy shadows flew in.
Seeing everything, Shi Hu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Illusions and ghosts, they are in trouble!"
"Captain, why did the young captain go to all this trouble? If he needs people, how many of our 100,000 disciples in Xiling would not be enough for him to choose?"
A close disciple came over and said.
"As the saying goes, 'a new official starts with three things'. The young captain has just taken over the position, so of course he needs to cultivate some of his own confidants."
"You are really wasting your time, Captain. How can these guys who fall down at the slightest gust of wind compare to the elite troops of our four halls and nineteen helms?"
Shi Hu didn't say much.
As the leader of the Xiangyin branch and a high-ranking official in Xiangling, he knew more than his subordinates.
This time, in order to select his confidants, the young leader Chen Yulou not only mobilized the four "Xuan Gui Bagua Orders" in the gang, but also mobilized the four halls of Dragon, Tiger, Leopard and Crane and all nineteen branches.
Tens of thousands of people were selected.
And they are all young and middle-aged people at their prime.
As for why not selecting from the disciples in the gang.
Hehe, these are the elite troops that I have trained for many years. Even if you are a captain, you can't just send them away with just a few words, right?
After all, the deputy chief is not the chief chief.
But as far as he knew, the middle and senior management of the gang still made certain compromises. After all, Chen Yulou would inherit the position of the head of Xiangling in the future, so they had to give him some face.
…
At the same time, in the mass grave.
Although the place is gloomy and filled with gloom, scattered bones and corpses that have not yet completely decayed and emit a foul odor can be seen underfoot from time to time.
Because there were so many people walking together, it wasn't that scary.
But since some time ago, there were fewer and fewer companions around me, and the noise seemed to be getting farther and farther away.
Soon someone noticed something was wrong and subconsciously chased after him. But instead of getting closer, he ran further and further away.
Frightened, Xu Rui found a dry pine branch as thick as his arm and nearly two meters long to defend himself.
"ah……!"
A shrill scream was heard.
In the dark night, the occasional sight of bones and corpses, coupled with the extremely gloomy atmosphere, is scary enough.
This sudden scream destroyed the psychological defenses of many timid people.
“A ghost…!”
Before everyone could react, the second scream rang out.
The third tone, the fourth tone...
The screams that came one after another made the atmosphere in the mass grave even more terrifying.
The people in the crowd seemed like a herd of frightened horses, turning around and fleeing in the direction they came from.
At this moment, they didn't want to lose their lives, they didn't want wealth and glory, they just wanted to stay alive.
But no matter how they ran, they could not escape the range of the mass grave, and they became more and more scattered.
Xu Rui was also running.
He was just as scared.
But no matter how he ran left and right, he couldn't get out. Moreover, the surrounding pine forest became more and more dense, and the tombs seemed more spacious and huge.
Stop suddenly.
"No, why am I running closer and closer to the depths of the mass grave? Is this a ghost wall?"
"Hee hee hee……!"
The crisp laughter with a hint of coldness instantly made Xu Rui's scalp explode and the blood in his body seemed to freeze.
