Being a soul-catcher is not an easy job.
Russell was also a little embarrassed at this time. He never expected that Zhong Bang's resurrection would attract the attention of the underworld. Perhaps the five reincarnations were already a topic of concern.
A man who has been a genius for five generations can basically be compared with a man who has been a good person for nine generations or a good person for ten generations, and the difficulty of both is similar.
One needs to be skillful to be born. The time of birth for five consecutive lives must be extremely clever, and the year, month and time cannot be wrong.
The other one must live skillfully and not do any serious evil deeds in several consecutive lifetimes. At least after death, he must be recognized as a good person by people.
Being a good person is not an easy thing.
Regarding Zhong Bang becoming a soul-catcher, Russell also received news from his immediate superior that Zhong Bang had died, but is now alive again.
This is equivalent to Uncle Jiu and Russell snatching people from the King of Hell. Although it is reasonable, it makes the people below feel unhappy.
The extraordinary man of the fifth generation has supernatural powers of yin and yang. Not only is he a good candidate for practicing Taoism, but even if he goes to the underworld, he can become a good ghost official if he practices hard.
He had originally reached the underworld, but was snatched back forcibly. The people below were naturally unhappy, but they couldn't do anything about it so they could only arrange an identity for him.
A soul-catcher walking in the world of the living.
A certain number of souls must be gathered before one can be considered truly resurrected. If the task is not completed, one will die at three o'clock in the morning and go to the underworld to serve as a ghost messenger.
Who dares to disobey the King of Hell’s decree of death at three o’clock in the morning
Russell rubbed his head and frowned even more. The King of Hell seemed to have discovered something and asked him to leave the world within a year and go to the underworld to take up his post.
As for where to go, there is no mention of that.
Trouble, trouble.
Russell himself didn't care. After all, he had reached the level of Heavenly Master, and it was not allowed for him to stay in the human world at this level. According to his plan, he would leave in a few months, so the time given by the King of Hell was still plenty.
But the trouble is that Zhong Bang has become a soul-catcher.
The soul-catcher specializes in taking the lives of the dead. Some of the remaining people are extremely obsessed, and their souls will not leave their bodies for a long time, so the soul-catcher needs to go and take them away personally.
But often such people have particularly strong obsessions and often have things that they cannot let go of. Working in this field is a job that offends people.
The reason why they offend people is that the Black and White Impermanence and the Ox-Head and Horse-Face are all evil spirits. Except for people who have cultivated to a certain level, it is difficult for ordinary people to see their figures, let alone stop them.
Those who saw them were basically people from the cultivation world. They naturally understood the majesty of the underworld, and would not resist the underworld for anyone other than their closest relatives.
It is more about pleasing them and arranging a good reincarnation for their loved ones.
But the Soul Catcher is different.
He is a real person, visible to almost everyone. In order to hook a soul, one must place the person on the head of the obsessed person in order to hook the soul away.
Imagine that your relative is lying on a hospital bed, and your whole family is standing nervously beside him. At this time, a stranger rushes in and slaps him on the head, and then your relative dies. What would you think when you see this
Of course he was hacked to death with a knife!
There are many powerful people in the world who do not want to die, but there is hardly any soul-catcher who can live a peaceful life.
Well, no matter what, it’s good to be alive. I’ll think of a solution when the time comes.
Russell frowned, while on the other side, Zhong Bang opened his eyes in a daze and touched his chest subconsciously. He was pierced through the chest. That feeling, wow!
It’s terrible!
Fortunately, the wound was gone and he breathed a sigh of relief. When he looked up, he saw his master staring at him with a strange look. That weird look made him feel a little uneasy.
"Master, what's wrong with me?"
Uncle Jiu didn't say anything. He pulled Russell and walked to the side. He asked in a low voice, "Is this normal?"
Just now, he opened the reincarnation channel, and a black light sank into Zhong Bang's body. Then Zhong Bang twisted his body strangely, twisting...
It's quite enchanting and weird, and very eye-catching.
Nothing's going to go wrong, right
"No problem. He has become a soul-catcher. He has just become a ghost and is still a little uncomfortable. Just go home and make him a mill and let him push it. That'll be all."
Just practice your skills and you'll be good enough.
"The Soul Catcher?"
Uncle Jiu's face became heavy. He also knew the seriousness of the matter, and it took him a long time to sigh.
"Let's keep it secret for now. As long as you're alive, that's good ...."
Although it is a little difficult, it is better than death, at least you are still alive.
Although Zhong Bang did not hear the conversation between the two, he seemed to understand something when he saw the vague movements.
He touched the wound on his chest that had disappeared, his face full of relief. As long as he was alive, he had no other requests.
The three of them cleaned up the scene, burned Aunt Hong's body, put it in a jar, and planned to take it away for burial.
After all, she had no relatives and was alone, so Uncle Jiu and the others had to collect her body.
Moreover, people no longer care about returning to their roots, and fully support cremation.
Although Uncle Jiu was a little uncomfortable, he gradually accepted it. In a few years, the underworld will be separated from the human world, and there will be no such thing as reincarnation, so naturally there won't be so many rules.
Perhaps by that time, people like him will be completely wiped out...
He felt a little lost, not only for himself, but also for Maoshan and the entire cultivation world.
As the tide swept over them, they seemed extremely small, like ants, with no way to resist at all.
Could this be the so-called great catastrophe that will last for thousands of years
It was indeed a great disaster!
The three of them walked out of the building. Outside, there was already a crowd of onlookers gathered. They were pointing at the building from afar and talking about it. The building was filled with a layer of mystery. At least the owner of the building would not be able to sleep tonight.
"Master, I forgot to tell you something. Uncle Simu seems to be here. I guess he should have come to our house."
"Oh? How could he bear to leave his wife to visit his senior brother like me? He hasn't visited me for so many years. I thought he had forgotten that he had such a senior brother!"
Uncle Jiu said something strange, but there was a smile on his face. He thought that he might not be happy to meet an old friend in a foreign place, as Simu had come so far to find him.
Zhong Bang, who was following behind him, couldn't help but prick up his ears out of curiosity.
Uncle master
Why haven’t I heard the master talk about this
He thought that he only had two senior brothers. Could it be that they were from a big sect
"Um?"
The three of them were riding the tram towards home, and they immediately saw a luxurious billboard curtain next to them, which was that of an auction house.
A group of hot girls were dancing vigorously in front of the auction. They were young and beautiful, and had everything they wanted, which was particularly eye-catching.
Russell swore that he was not looking at them. He was obsessed with gambling and drugs, so how could he notice whether their breasts were big or not
"Master, what do you think that is?"
Uncle Jiu turned his head and looked at the image hanging outside the auction house with his eyes wide open. "I don't understand it."
He really couldn't understand it. There was a string of English words on it, and only a small line of words at the bottom that said something about mummy.
What is a mummy
Russell: …
"This is a foreign auction house. They said this is a Chinese mummy and the price is very high. We welcome rich people to go to foreign auctions."
"You're a ghost mummy, you're kidding me!"
Uncle Jiu had a look of disdain on his face. This thing was a hairy mummy, not a zombie. He had no idea how many thousands of them he had killed.
"Oh my goodness, the starting price for this thing is hundreds of thousands???"
Uncle Jiu opened his mouth wide, as if he had discovered a way to make money.
He seemed to see a few words on the foreheads of countless foreigners: Stupid people, lots of money, come quickly!
ps: Four thousand three hundred words today.
