Chapter 2: Registration(1/2)
"This is a city in vain!!"
The four of them raised their heads and looked at the majestic city in front of them, their eyes widened.
It always feels like there is no end to this city.
While the four of them were watching.
I saw the gate of Wusi City slowly opening a gap.
Under the mist, a group of Yin soldiers were seen walking out. The leader of the ghost general was a big man with a black face.
The big man was nearly three meters tall, with tiger eyes, a round face, and a full beard. He had a ferocious look that gave people a mountain-like sense of oppression even before he got close, which was intimidating.
The big man swept his eyes and finally fixed on Xu Tong. Then he stepped forward, knelt down on one knee towards Xu Tong like pushing a jade pillar from a mountain of gold, and apologized with both hands: "The last general, Dou Yong, is the guard of the city gate.
Meet the superior!"
Dou Yong's voice was like thunder. Even though the four of them, Xu Tong, were equally strong, the shock caused pain to their eardrums.
This is the treatment of having a godly position. Although this ghost general is a general guarding the City of Fushou, his strength is terrifying.
Xu Tong felt that the four of them might not be opponents together, but the other party did not have a divine status, and he was one level shorter than him.
"Get up and talk."
Xu Tong, who had also been an official, did not stop when he saw this, and waved to signal the other party to get up.
To be honest, the moment Dou Yong stood up, Xu Tong and the others could still feel the tremendous pressure hanging on them.
"What's the business of coming here?"
Dou Yong's voice was still loud, which made Xu Tong and others uncomfortable.
Just when Xu Tong was about to explain his purpose, the props book prompt sounded first.
"Main mission 1: duty report.
Mission description: Report to the Yincaosi in the City of Fushen.
Task time: 3 hours.
Mission failure: the punishment is extremely severe!!"
Seeing the reminder of the mission, Xu Tong frowned slightly and said to Dou Yong in front of him: "We are going to the Yin Cao Division, please send a ghost to lead the way."
"Follow the edict of the superior!"
Dou Yong stood up, glanced back, and selected one of his guards: "It's up to you, lead the way, there will be no mistakes!"
"yes!"
After the guards agreed, they said to Xu Tong and the others: "Please come with me, sir."
With that said, they walked in front to lead the way. After saying goodbye to the big man in front of them, Xu Tong and the other three followed the guards into the City of Fusi.
As soon as we entered the gate, the surrounding suddenly became lively.
The spacious street is full of pedestrians, wearing all kinds of clothes, some from the Qing Dynasty, some from the Republic of China, and even some from the Ming Dynasty.
Gao Zhuo looked around and saw many modern people.
Ordinarily, these costumes and appearances may not seem weird on their own. After all, they are all changes inherited from the Chinese civilization.
But when they are all put together, it will inevitably give people a sense of confusion in time and space.
"Are these all ghosts?"
Gao Zhuo lowered his voice and spoke in Xu Tong's ear.
His voice was already very low, but the guard walking in front could still hear it clearly. He turned back to Gao Zhuo and said:
"In this city of wasted death, as long as they are not treacherous and evil, and have the ghosts of killing, most of them are here. Most of these people died in vain and were not allowed to be reincarnated. There are also those who died violently, committed suicide, and were released after serving their sentences. Therefore, the ghosts of all dynasties can
meet."
"Oh, that's it. What do you call me?"
Xu Tong and others nodded and asked casually.
"I don't dare. Just call me Yulang."
Yulang said quickly.
"Yulang, what a good name."
Xu Tong praised, and also reminded in the team channel:
"If you have anything to say, try to say it in the team channel. Any soldier here may not be much worse than us."
The four of them followed Yulang all the way, and Xu Tong and the others saw a lot of interesting things on the way.
For example, several people wearing Ming Dynasty costumes teamed up to beat up a ghost wearing Qing Dynasty clothes.
Or maybe a few young people wearing modern clothes gathered together to sell new clothes on the roadside.
In this regard, Yulang explained: "Because there have been many grievances between each other in the past dynasties, this kind of thing happens from time to time, but as long as nothing extraordinary happens, we will turn a blind eye."
Yulang's words are an attempt to avoid the important, and it is more than just a grudge. The feud between the past dynasties is basically the destruction of the country and the family. In addition, in every era, there are always a few awesome bosses who are doing well in the underworld.
The forces are misaligned, and occasionally there will be several large-scale armed fights.
So if you die in vain, the city may not be so peaceful and prosperous.
Fortunately, all the heroic souls who died in battle were taken away by the Five Ghost Emperors early on, otherwise the fight between those heroic souls would be even more uncontrollable.
Xu Tong asked many more questions on the way.
For example, about the underworld.
Yulang knew all these issues and spoke about them.
When it comes to the official organization of Yincao, the leader is naturally the one from Youshan, but that person never cares about these things, and basically nothing big can disturb him.
Next was the Great Emperor Fengdu of Beiyin, who managed almost all appointments and transfers of ghosts and gods.
If Fujun is the chairman, then Emperor Fengdu is the CEO.
Below are five department managers and five ghost emperors, nine in total.
Under the Five Directions Ghost Emperor, there is another place called Luofeng Liutian, but it is a department directly under Emperor Fengdu and has great authority. No one else can control it except Emperor Fengdu.
Further down are the Ten Palaces of Hell, Liu'an Gongcao, the Ten Great Yin Commanders, etc.
These are all official. In addition, there are many ancient gods. These gods have no positions, but their status is no less than that of the Ghost Emperors of the Five Directions.
For example, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, Emperor Zongji, Patriarch of the Sea of Blood, and even the legendary Empress Houtu, etc., are all well-known to people.
As for those that are so ancient that people can't even name them, there are even more.
For example, there are countless Five Heavenly Demon Kings.
This does not include some special forces.
For example, those imperial families have exclusive fiefdoms in the underworld.
In short, the underworld is vast, but even Yulang sometimes cannot tell how many gods are hidden here.
If I really had to explain it in detail, I might not be able to finish it in three days and three nights.
When Xu Tong and the others heard this, their heads were as big as a bucket. They knew that the underworld was huge and there were many big bosses hidden in it. However, after listening carefully, they realized that it was not just the big bosses. This place was a veritable hell circle. Anyone who jumped out could be killed.
It's an ancient god.
"Sure enough, it's better to be alive."
Gao Zhuo patted his chest and sighed.
While they were talking, Xu Tong and the others had already arrived in front of Yincao Si.
According to Yu Lang's introduction, the Yin Cao Division is one of the subordinate departments of the Six Divisions of Gong Cao, which mainly interfaces with the City God.
The task of receiving the Western envoys this time is the responsibility of Yincaosi, so Xu Tong needs to complete the docking task before coming here.
"Sir, this is the Yin Caosi. I have resigned from my position!"
After Yu Lang made a clean introduction, he handed over to Xu Tong, turned around and left. Such a deft style was enough to show that the people under Dou Yong were in strict military discipline.
After Yulang left, Xu Tong motioned to Gao Zhuo and the others to wait for him here, and then strode to the gate of Yincaosi.
Because of the divine position, the little ghost in front of the Yincaosi gate did not dare to make things difficult. After asking about the purpose of his visit, he quickly led Xu Tong in.
As soon as you enter the gate, you will see several desks in the court, full of officials, big and small, busy around.
Although the Yin Caosi only communicates with the City God, every month the City God must report the information from the Yang world and organize it to the Yin Caosi.
Speaking of which, Yincaosi is more like an intelligence agency targeting the underworld.
"welcome."
At this time, a Yin official wearing a black gauze on his head and an ashen complexion came out from behind.
This Yin official is Yang Yu, the head of the Yin Cao Division. Yang Yu, like Xu Tong, also enjoys a minor divine position and is considered a high-ranking official in the Yin Cao. Strictly speaking, Xu Tong is still his subordinate.
Well... at least for now.
To be continued...
