Chapter 156: There's a ghost!

Views:

Until he walked out of the old man's room, Zhou Ze didn't say anything. He could only silently admire the old man in his heart that he was indeed born with a rich life. He lived with dozens of dead souls, and nothing happened to him. Not only was he not affected at all, but his luck was also always good.

This kind of fate is something you can’t envy.

Zhou Ze did not ask those military souls whether they were willing to go to hell. Perhaps, their obsession was only because the old man was still alive and the old man was willing to sacrifice to them, plus the relationship as former comrades-in-arms, so they were able to gather at the old man's house, and every night when the old man fell asleep, everyone would drink and chat together.

They live a very leisurely and peaceful life, and do not cause any impact on the people around them. As a ghost catcher, they can just leave it to their own devices.

It is estimated that when the old man dies of old age, his soul will truly join the ranks of his comrades. Then everyone will go to hell together and will not be lonely on the road to the underworld.

It’s just like when we traveled all over the country to fight in the past. When we are together, we won’t feel afraid. There is only one road to go and we just need to follow the red flag.

If Zhou Ze forcibly took away these military souls, the old man would also be greatly affected, and his original life rhythm would almost be completely cut off. Zhou Ze was really worried that the old man might encounter an accident because of this.

No matter what, he at least helped me sincerely. It would be a bit unreasonable for me to harm him again.

However, because of Zhou Ze's interruption, the party in the old man's house ended quickly tonight, and no more noise came from the next room.

Perhaps, those military souls themselves knew that whether they could continue to stay here was actually just a matter of Zhou Ze's thought.

After returning to the room, Dr. Lin helped Zhou Ze lie back on the bed. She still lay on her side, looking at Zhou Ze. There were some twists and turns tonight. Zhou Ze couldn't sleep in the first place, and Dr. Lin didn't sleep very well either.

Reaching out, holding her hair and stroking it gently in his hands, Zhou Ze really enjoyed the feeling.

It has nothing to do with family, love, or responsibility. As long as a normal man has a beautiful woman lying next to him, he will feel happy even if he can't do anything.

"It's been a rich experience these past two days," Dr. Lin said.

Zhou Ze nodded. For an ordinary person, it was already difficult to accept that her husband had been resurrected, and she also experienced a series of supernatural events. Fortunately, Dr. Lin was very strong.

"Will I keep seeing those things?" Dr. Lin asked.

"No, it will be fine in two days. When you get back, take a leave and have a good rest for a while."

Dr. Lin nodded. She was always very obedient.

"How have you been lately?"

"Very good." Zhou Ze replied.

"That's good."

Dr. Lin snuggled up to Zhou Ze, slowly closed his eyes, and seemed to fall asleep again.

Zhou Ze still couldn't sleep, so he simply took out the two ghost messenger certificates. The middle of the two certificates began to turn white and had obvious creases, which meant that they could only withstand one more "recognition of the master" at most.

The two certificates are equivalent to having two official positions in hand. In the world of the living, anyone who can get an official position can walk with his nose in the air. In the underworld, these two things are actually more in short supply.

However, Zhou Ze had not figured out how to use these things. He originally wanted to find two of the dozens of military souls to inherit them, but thinking about it, it seemed impossible.

It’s not that Zhou Ze has some kind of psychological cleanliness, but simply because the conditions for inheriting the ghost messenger certificate are indeed very harsh, and the person must be a dead soul with a physical body.

Even if ordinary ghosts can be possessed by ghosts, it is not a true "reincarnation" and does not meet the requirements.

The only ones who can truly inherit this are the hidden immigrants from hell like myself, Tang Shi, and Liang Chuan. The function of this certificate is not to give you magic power or strength. In fact, it is just a symbolic function.

It can add the icing on the cake and bleach your gray identity, that's all.

Just like in ancient times, when bandits became powerful enough, they could receive amnesty from the imperial court and obtain official positions, but you, an ordinary peasant from a good family, cannot enjoy this treatment.

Therefore, these two certificates are actually useless, tasteless to use and a pity to throw away.

It is so difficult to find the same stowaway from hell. Tang Shi once said that she spent half a year searching in the world before she found Liang Chuan, and then she found herself.

Now, at most, there are only three people.

Zhou Ze's fingertips were rubbing the ghost catcher's certificate. Suddenly, Zhou Ze found that the ghost catcher's certificate was emitting a blue smoke under the stimulation of his nails.

The smell of smoke is pleasant and refreshing.

Then Zhou Ze saw that the certificate seemed to be more torn than before, and immediately stopped this behavior.

This is indeed too luxurious, even more luxurious than smoking the highest-grade cigars.

Putting down his ID book, Zhou Ze took out his cell phone and planned to get through the night. Tomorrow he would ask Dr. Lin to drive him back to the bookstore in Tongcheng. Xu Qinglang and the others should take care of the Taoist's matter, and they would probably have to burn a large amount of paper money again.

Fortunately, it doesn’t matter whether the Taoist priest comes back or not.

The key is to find the monkey.

But soon, Zhou Ze heard some unusual movements coming from the other side of the courtyard wall, as if something was climbing over the wall.

The noise became louder and louder, and there seemed to be quite a few things climbing over the wall. Gradually, the noise woke up Dr. Lin.

Dr. Lin's sleep quality tonight was really worrying. He was woken up just after falling asleep for a while.

Just like some people with the ability to see ghosts and gossips have trouble in their daily lives, it is indeed a very disturbing thing when you can perceive things that ordinary people cannot.

Dr. Lin's condition is expected to last for one or two days. He will only return to normal after the "magnetic field" in his body dissipates. He should also be careful not to catch cold, otherwise he will easily get sick.

"Is there a sound outside?" Doctor Lin asked Zhou Ze.

Zhou Ze nodded.

Doctor Lin thought it was the person who had been "noisy" next door before, but actually it wasn't. The only thing to blame was Zhou Ze's carelessness just now, which damaged the ghost catcher's certificate and caused it to emit a fragrance. This fragrance not only made Zhou Ze feel good, but also attracted some nearby ghosts to come closer instinctively.

This is the performance. Zhou Ze thought about getting up and going outside to sign for a wave of express deliveries.

But at this moment, the old man came out from the next room again, and seemed to be going to the toilet.

As we get older, water pipes tend to rust easily, and leaks are the most common.

This made Zhou Ze a little worried. Although the wandering ghosts were basically just a few small animals and couldn't cause any big trouble, the old man was old after all. If he was affected by something, the consequences might be serious.

If the old man had stayed in the house, protected by his comrades, he would have nothing to worry about. But now that he has walked out, there is a certain probability that something unexpected will happen.

There is a huge difference between military souls and ordinary ghosts. Their range of activities is actually very small, and they abide by their own "discipline". The restrictions imposed by this world on them are indeed stricter than those on other ghosts.

General Chen Yi once wrote the poem "I will go to the underworld to recruit my old subordinates, and with a hundred thousand flags I will slay Yama". But in fact, as a stability maintenance agency of the underworld, it can tolerate you wandering like a lonely ghost and making small fights. But if you want to form a team to cause trouble, I'm sorry, the underworld is not a pushover.

Moreover, when Zhou Ze entered the yard before, he did not feel the location of those military souls. It was not until he entered the old man's house and the old man lifted the curtain that he saw the house was full of people sitting. This meant that these military souls could only move in this limited area in the house.

No matter what, I invited the ghost myself, and I can't let the old man get into trouble for me.

"Help me up." Zhou Ze said.

Doctor Lin helped Zhou Ze get out of bed.

As the two of them walked to the door, they heard a conversation outside.

It looks like there is a man and a woman.

"There are a lot of people in the room on the left, and they look very fierce," said the woman.

"Yes, but they can't get out. Don't be afraid, I'm here." said the male ghost.

"In the room on the right there are the same people as us, also a man and a woman, and the man seems to be injured." the woman continued.

Doctor Lin also heard the conversation and looked at Zhou Ze with some concern.

Zhou Ze was not worried. He really hoped that the other party would rush towards him directly so that he would not have to run away again.

"No, that man is scarier than all the people in the room on the left combined. He makes my scalp tingle. Don't provoke him."

Doctor Lin looked at Zhou Ze with some surprise.

Zhou Ze raised his head slightly.

A man and a woman are trying to show off in front of their girlfriends.

This couple is really smart.

"I can't go to the left, and I can't go to the right. So where does the fragrance come from? There is only an old man in the toilet. Maybe it's with him." The woman muttered.

"We can only try our luck there. This courtyard is too evil. It's even more evil than the graveyard where we are."

The two ghosts, a man and a woman, seemed to have reached a consensus and were ready to attack the old man.

In fact, Zhou Ze underestimated the attraction of that fragrance to ghosts. This man and woman had obviously been ghosts for many years and were almost becoming spirits.

As the saying goes, "cunning and shrewd", this is not just an adjective, but also a noun. Any existence that cultivates to a certain level can become a spirit.

The old man was a little dizzy after drinking. He kept grabbing at the water pipe but couldn't hold it. He was very frustrated.

Two ghosts, a man and a woman, rushed directly into the toilet.

Just as Zhou Ze walked out of the room with the help of Dr. Lin and was about to go solve the problem,

All I heard were two terrified screams from a man and a woman:

“There’s a ghost!”

"There's a ghost! There's a ghost!"

Then, the man and the woman quickly rushed out of the wall of the courtyard and fled under Zhou Ze's gaze.

Doctor Lin couldn't believe it, and even felt terrified when he thought about it. He murmured:

"That old man, is he also a ghost?"

A ghost, alive and well, walking on the street, and taking me and Zhou Ze home? Eating with me, playing chess

Zhou Ze shook his head and corrected:

"They weren't shouting about ghosts.

But it is expensive,

The nobility of noble people. "

When a noble person is here, gods and ghosts retreat.
