Chapter 476

~11 min read 2,178 words

After eating the Great Emperor's offerings, Lu Runsheng lost himself.

It can be said that during these days in the Ghost City, Lu Runsheng had long forgotten who he was; he was simply a Dead-Walker.

A Dead-Walker who acted entirely on instinct.

At first, he instinctively didn't let Seeing Yin Meng leave him; when Seeing Yin Meng encountered the little monk's golden light damage, he instinctively rushed out and smashed the golden light.

Before Seeing Yin Meng could remind Lu Runsheng that the "Bodhisattva" had left the little monk's body, Lu Runsheng first let go of the hand pinching his neck and didn't kill him.

Because Xiaoyuan taught him not to harm ordinary people and provoke karma unless absolutely necessary.

Smashing the hot pot restaurant's door and making a phone call was to notify Xiaoyuan that there was danger here; sitting at the hot pot table was to invite Seeing Yin Meng to eat hot pot; next, it was making coffins without stopping for these days.

He had clearly lost control, but he continued to follow another kind of inertia.

Seeing Yin Meng had mixed feelings during these days, both guilty, uneasy, panicked, and restless, and intertwined with uncontrollable sweetness.

She would look at Lu Runsheng's current appearance, crying and laughing inexplicably, feeling that she was a psychopath.

There was a love word called "Even if you die, you will be good to you."

Normal people couldn't verify this.

But even though Lu Runsheng had become a Dead-Walker, he was still being good to her.

No beautiful pictures, no zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting, only the solidness that seeped into the bones and even penetrated life and death.

Moreover, not only Seeing Yin Meng, everyone present, knowing that Lu Runsheng had lost control, didn't feel that Lu Runsheng would pose a danger.

At any other time in the past, whenever Brother Xiaoyuan was about to step into danger, Tan Tan Wenbin and Lin Shu You would have been the first to prepare in advance, but this time, even though Brother Xiaoyuan walked right up to the "Dead-Walker," the two of them just stood there without moving.

As if everyone in their hearts unconditionally believed that Lu Runsheng would never harm Brother Xiaoyuan.

Even Li Li Zhuiyuan believed in this deeply, abandoned the means of layout, and directly adopted the most primitive irrational awakening.

When that "Xiaoyuan" came out of Lu Runsheng's mouth, it meant that this loss of control officially entered a turning point.

Li Li Zhuiyuan looked at Seeing Yin Meng: "No need to feel guilty, you didn't do anything wrong; for Brother Lu Runsheng, this is a great opportunity."

Before in the small hell, Li Li Zhuiyuan discovered the weakness of Lu Runsheng's pulling up seedlings to help them grow.

Admittedly, the current Lu Runsheng was already very strong, but he was now looking for deficiencies by referring to Brother Qin.

At the same strength segment, in the same environment, if Brother Qin came, he could fight from beginning to end, constantly making adjustments to himself according to different situations; Lu Runsheng couldn't, he just relied on a set of templates to fight from beginning to end, and in the end, his body couldn't support it.

Li Li Zhuiyuan's idea at the time was to catch some corresponding evil spirits after going back to nourish Lu Runsheng's body.

As a result, Seeing Yin Meng sent a big wave directly.

Well, over-nourished.

Fortunately, Lu Runsheng was awakened now; no need for himself to help him release the valve; below, just wait for Lu Runsheng's self-consciousness to constantly revive and occupy the dominant position again, and the things eaten this time wouldn't be wasted.

However, this way of stimulating bloodlines could only be used once for a category; even if Seeing Yin Meng continued to steal the Great Emperor's offerings, for Lu Runsheng, it could only satisfy his appetite.

Unless next time, what Lu Runsheng eats is no longer the Great Emperor's sacrificial food, but the Great Emperor's...

In short, Lu Runsheng's matter here could be put aside for now, but other things had to be calculated first.

Li Li Zhuiyuan turned around and looked at the master and disciple of Buddha and Dao sitting at the door.

Hell was now tripartite; the Great Emperor occupied an absolute advantage, but could not suppress those two as steadily as in the past.

The Bodhisattva and the tomb owner not only obtained more breathing space in hell, but this aura could even spread to the ghost city.

Of course, it couldn't be ruled out that this kind of fighting overflow was not deliberately indulged by the Great Emperor.

Seeing Yin Meng could successfully steal the offerings, and there must be the Great Emperor's acquiescence in this.

The tomb owner entrusted in the pottery figurine, his gaze shrouded the coffin shop, forming a thick fog barrier, isolating the out-of-control Lu Runsheng from the living; this was not targeting and suppression, but a good deed of protection.

Even if Lu Runsheng didn't harm ordinary people, the surrounding neighbors would also "suffer" one by one.

Just like the little Huang Ying back then; even if she didn't kill people, just staying near the grandfather and grandmother's house could make the grandfather and grandmother's house constantly unlucky.

What's more, the intensity of the Dead-Walker resentment on Lu Runsheng at this moment was simply not something the former Little Huang Ying could compare to.

The Great Emperor sent food, the tomb owner acted as a good person, and only one Bodhisattva was busy digging walls here.

And, the digging was so rough?

Li Li Zhuiyuan opened his mouth and said: "Brother Brother Binbin, A You, take the divine tablets of the two generals of increase and loss, let's go down to hell."

Tan Tan Wenbin placed the armored pottery figurine on the shop counter and followed Brother Xiaoyuan away.

A Li stayed in the shop.

The muddled Lu Runsheng put down the tools in his hand and walked out of the coffin shop.

If the armored pottery figurine wasn't broken, the fog barrier would still be there.

The Lu Runsheng who walked out still faced the empty ghost street.

Lu Runsheng walked to a shop, reached out, smashed the door panel; this was a small shop.

When Lu Runsheng returned to the coffin shop, he was holding two cans of Jianlibao and two straws.

After placing the drinks on the counter next to A Li, he continued to make coffins.

"Pfft!"

A Li opened the drink, inserted the straw, and took a sip.

It was bitter.

Carrying a taste of paper ash soaked in it.

Very hard to drink.

But the girl's corners of her mouth revealed dimples, looking at the other can on the counter; he was waiting for the young man to come back, and after he drank it, she could collect a special can of Jianlibao.

The existence of the heavy fog isolated the dead from the living, but materially, it was common.

Just like that hot pot restaurant, when it opened for business on the second day, the shopkeeper lady touched the door panel, and the door panel shattered due to decay; and the furniture store in the alley, the stored wood was not found to be eaten into wood chips by insects and ants until the third day of inventory.

This was also the reason why the master and disciple at the door were hungry to such a degree.

It wasn't that they couldn't find food, but that any food found in this fog was hard for them to swallow; rather than calling it food, it was better to call it poison.

Seeing Yin Meng pointed at them to A Li, and A Li nodded.

Opening A Li's mountaineering bag, Seeing Yin Meng took out compressed biscuits, pondered for a moment, put most of them back, and only took out a small part and handed them to them, also bringing two bottles of water.

Yang Banxian was stunned for a moment, took it and opened the packaging bag, first tasted a little himself, confirmed it was edible, and immediately fed it to his disciple.

The disciple's consciousness was already a bit unclear, eating ravenously; Yang Banxian used both hands to catch the crumbs under his disciple's mouth, and after the disciple finished eating, he sent the crumbs into his own mouth.

A gratified smile appeared on Yang Banxian's face, and he was just about to recall his first meeting with his disciple; at that time, the kid was still a little doll...

Just started, the atmosphere hadn't been laid out yet, when it was interrupted by the disciple's wailing.

Love this thing, it really was easy to do bad things with good intentions; the compressed biscuits that were originally divided just right were eaten by one person, plus the water stirred it, and the disciple couldn't bear it either.

"Master, my stomach is so bloated, so uncomfortable."

Borrowing the cover of the heavy fog, Li Li Zhuiyuan set up an altar at the very top of the ghost street and summoned the ghost gate.

Tan Tan Wenbin and Lin Lin Shu You each held a divine tablet, closed their eyes, started walking in the shade, and walked into the underworld following Brother Xiaoyuan.

Although he had been a ghost commander for a long time, this was still Lin Lin Shu You's first time properly going down to the Fengdu Hell, and he felt everything was strange.

A You: "Brother Bin, the underworld is really so big, so big."

Tan Tan Wenbin: "It's a university you got into by your own college entrance examination; can your vocabulary be richer?"

A You: "Just shocked, hehe, word poor."

"Pay respects to the Young Lord!"

"Pay respects to the Young Lord!"

The sound of ten thousand ghosts paying respects like a mountain and sea came.

This scene made Lin Lin Shu You and Tan Tan Wenbin, who had seen the big world, feel like the main bodies remaining outside were getting goosebumps.

Why was the small hell called small hell? Because compared to the real Fengdu Hell, it was really too small.

Thanks to the Great Emperor's clear attitude of support, Li Li Zhuiyuan's awkward positioning as the Fengdu Young Lord in the underworld was greatly improved.

Thanks to the Great Emperor's clear attitude of support, Li Li Zhuiyuan, this Young Lord of Fengdu, saw his awkward position in the Underworld greatly improved.

The ghost officials and wandering souls in the Underworld no longer viewed the Young Lord's Mansion as a taboo they dared not touch, and consequently, the status of the many Zhao-surnamed ghost officials in the mansion rose along with it.

The old Jianghu reputation of the Jiujiang Zhao clan being good at business was indeed not without foundation; as long as they were given an opportunity, they could truly make something of themselves.

Leaning on the current hottest figure in the Underworld, the Young Lord of Fengdu, saying the Zhao family had "eyes and ears reaching the heavens" in this underground world really wasn't much of an exaggeration.

In any case, whether it was detaining evil ghosts or going to other Underworld offices to get documents approved, everything went smoothly for them, and no ghost dared to obstruct them.

Li Li Zhuiyuan glanced at the Yellow Springs, which hung down motionless and split in the middle, then looked down at the Buddhist sutra chanting coming from the lowest levels, gaining a clearer understanding of the current specific layout of the Underworld.

Lin Lin Shu You: "Wow, is this our Brother Xiaoyuan's mansion?"

Where Li Li Zhuiyuan had once drawn a diagram on the ground, a towering and majestic building had now been established.

"Creak..."

The main gate opened, and the group of Zhao-clan ghost officials inside knelt on both sides to welcome him.

"Respectfully welcoming the Young Lord back to the mansion."

"Respectfully welcoming the Young Lord back to the mansion."

Li Li Zhuiyuan nodded at them and stepped inside.

Lin Lin Shu You: "Brother Bin, after we die, will we live here?"

Tan Tan Wenbin: "Then do you want to pick out a room in advance?"

Lin Lin Shu You: "Can I? Uh, no, wait, if we live here after we die, then are we considered dead or still alive?"

Tan Tan Wenbin: "Considered ghost-wraiths."

Lin Lin Shu You: "Forget it then, better to die cleanly."

Inside the Young Lord's Mansion, Li Li Zhuiyuan circled off another piece of land, drew a formation, and then signaled for Tan Tan Wenbin and Lin Lin Shu You to place the spirit tablets of the Generals of Increase and Decrease upon it.

This matter could have been handled by Seeing Yin Meng, or even by sending a word to the Zhao-clan ghost officials in the Young Lord's Mansion, but the Great Emperor did not allow it.

It was setting a hurdle, but from another perspective, wasn't this also another kind of regard?

The Great Emperor hoped he would "come home" to visit often.
