Chapter 117: The Ghost Banquet of the City God

When Li Xiuyuan saw this city god in a vermilion official uniform, his heart was also a little solemn. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Truth be told, it was his first time dealing with a god.

The last time I saw Lei Gong in Xiahe Village, it was just a face-to-face, and now it's the official contact.

And he has come all the way from Guobei County, it can be said that there is this city god everywhere behind him, whether it is the death of Qingmei, or the matter of the two ghosts, or the matter of He Shou Wujing, this city god is involved in it.

But to be honest, Li Xiuyuan still has a good impression of this city god, because he has indeed helped him several times.

"In Xia, Li Xiuyuan has seen Lord Guo Beicheng Chenghuang. Li Xiuyuan bowed.

Chenghuang's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly walked out, and returned with a smile: "The saint in the world is here, and the Chenghuang dare not call him an adult, and please call me Chenghuang directly, I heard those two Yin soldiers say that Li Gongzi is coming to Guobeicheng to visit me, and it is a blessing to see me today." ”

"Chenghuang is gracious. Li Xiuyuan said.

"Li Gongzi, please, a banquet has been prepared inside, just wait for Li Gongzi to take a seat. Chenghuang said.

Li Xiuyuan said: "How can you bother the city god to set up a banquet and wait. ”

"If it were someone else, I would definitely not have set up this banquet, but when Li Gongzi's words, I still have to put this banquet, you are a saint in the world, I am the city god of the underworld, in terms of seniority, Li Gongzi is far above me, now that he is coming, how can he not put wine and feast to welcome him. ”

Chenghuang said, "Come, please come inside." ”

Li Xiuyuan saw this, so he didn't have a good way to shirk it.

Entering the City God Temple, he found that the City God Temple is like a palace tune, magnificent atmosphere, majestic and extraordinary, there are enchanting and moving dancers dancing inside, the sound of melodious singing and music floats in, and the fragrance is permeated everywhere, and there is little smoke.

It's not like a place where ghosts live, but like a place where gods live.

"It's not an illusion, it's the real appearance of this City God Temple. Li Xiuyuan glanced at it, and immediately made a conclusion in his heart.

In fact, after coming to this world, he realized how powerful a city god in a city was, comparable to a soil emperor.

Everything in the underworld, as long as it is in this realm, is under the control of the city god, and even the affairs of the yang world can be intervened, and affect every move of the mortals in the yang world through means such as dreaming and seducing souls.

"Those dancing girls are all female ghosts. Li Xiuyuan glanced at the singers and dancers again.

Although these women are outstanding in posture and extremely beautiful, their forms are illusory and they are not real people.

"I really didn't expect that your temple is so magnificent, it really opened my eyes. He sighed and said: "Not only did they prepare delicious food and wine, but they also prepared singing and dancing women, even the prefect of this world did not have this treatment." ”

"Hehe, there has been a change in the court of the mortal world, but there is no Chenghuang in the underworld, and over time, the underworld is naturally more prosperous than the yang world. Chenghuang said.

Li Xiuyuan nodded and sat down.

"Come, I'll give Li Gongzi a glass first. Chenghuang raised the wine glass in his hand and said.

Li Xiuyuan looked at a glass cup next to him, which emitted a red light.

He asked, "What kind of wine is this?"

Chenghuang said with a smile: "This is the Western Regions grape wine in the Tang Dynasty palace, when the Tang Dynasty palace collapsed, some grape wine was buried in the ground and forgotten, but now it is cheaper for us ghosts and gods, and this wine is specially prepared for Li Gongzi, Li Gongzi can drink it with confidence, and I can only smell the taste and be satisfied." ”

After speaking, he took a bite into the air of the wine glass.

A breath of wine was inhaled into his abdomen.

"Good wine. Chenghuang couldn't help but praise.

When I put down the wine glass, the grape wine inside was gone, like a rancid wine.

Li Xiuyuan also tasted it, and it was really fragrant and sweet, and the wine was overflowing.

"It's delicious. He also praised.

Such wine can indeed only be obtained by ghosts and gods, and where can ordinary people find it.

"Come on, don't pour wine for Li Gongzi. Chenghuang said.

At this time, a charming and enchanting young female ghost floated over, lifted the wine jug and poured a glass, and then threw a charming eye and showed her admiration to Li Xiuyuan, and her fingers gently swept the back of his hand incomprehensibly, as if there was a meaning of seduction.

"Ah~!"

The next moment, this beautiful female ghost instantly let out a miserable scream, as if she had been subjected to an electric shock or lightning strike, and flew out in an instant, and then the ghost body quickly faded and shrunk into a ball.

This scene suddenly appeared, startling the ghosts in the main hall

Chenghuang was suddenly furious: "I was caught and raped and hacked in bed before I was alive, and I am not comfortable when I die, and the body of a saint in the world can also be touched by you, a female ghost. ”

"Yes, Lord Chenghuang. ”

Immediately, a Yin soldier came out from the side and took the female ghost away.

Although the female ghost wanted to be scattered, she was still frightened and hurriedly begged for mercy, but Chenghuang didn't care about it, and just let the Yin soldiers take the female ghost away.

Li Xiuyuan frowned, thinking a little in his heart.

"Li Gongzi, I'm really sorry, it's because I don't have strict jurisdiction, the female ghosts here saw that Li Gongzi's status was noble and his life was extraordinary, and they all had thoughts in their hearts, and they wanted to use Li Gongzi's fortune to alleviate their crimes, so that they could be reincarnated as soon as possible. Chenghuang said apologetically.

"It's okay, it's just a little thing. Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said.

The so-called gods and ghosts are not close to him, and he finally sees them, and once the ghosts and gods touch him, they are even more uncomfortable than death.

This is still their own blocked breath, if it is not blocked, the gods and ghosts within ten zhang of this vicinity will be swept away.

"This is the city god testing me. ”

Suddenly, the thought popped into his mind.

If it weren't for the temptation, how could this female ghost dare to make such an action.

It's just that Li Xiuyuan is a little puzzled, what is the meaning of this temptation?

This Chenghuang already knows that he is the destiny of a saint, and if he wants to test it, it will not be a superfluous move.

After thinking about it for a while, he couldn't think of a reason, so Li Xiuyuan drank a few more drinks with this city god and began to talk about business.

"I don't know if Chenghuang knew about the death I was killed outside Guobei County a few days ago. ”

Chenghuang put down the wine glass and said: "Naturally, it is clear that the Black Mountain King wanted to eat Li Gongzi, but was hunted by Li Gongzi, Li Gongzi really deserves to be a saint in the world, that Black Mountain Jun is a great demon who has practiced for thousands of years, and his way is comparable to that of God and Buddha. ”

As he spoke, he also deliberately praised Li Xiuyuan a few words.

Li Xiuyuan said: "I'm not asking about the death of Black Mountain Jun, I want to ask Chenghuang, about the dozen or so guards of my Li family, they were taken away by the ghosts under Chenghuang, I don't know where they are now?"

"That's it?"

Chenghuang nodded: "The dozen or so guards under the command of Li Gongzi were heroes before they died, and they were also ghosts after death, and I asked the Yin soldiers to take them away because I was afraid that they would be uncontrolled and cause trouble in the yang world, so as not to have another mountain ghost king in the future, but the ghosts of the dozen or so guards of Li Gongzi are no longer with me, but in the underworld." ”

"Reincarnated?" asked Li Xiuyuan.

Chenghuang shook his head: "They did not go to reincarnation, but were detained by a ghost king in the underworld. ”

Li Xiuyuan frowned and said, "What is the ghost king of the underworld doing when they are detaining them?"

"There are strong men in the mortal world as soldiers, and there are naturally in the underworld, I originally asked Li Gongzi's guards to go to the underworld for a trip and report for the record, so that they can be the ghost messengers here, but when they passed by the ghost king's territory, they were detained by the ghost king, although I tried my best to convince them, but the ghost king didn't sell my face at all, I am an official in the underworld, he is the king of the underworld, and he detained Li Gongzi's guards, I really can't do anything. Chenghuang said helplessly.

Li Xiuyuan's expression sank: "Is the underworld so chaotic?

"The underworld is the same as the imperial court, the imperial court is chaotic, the underworld is also chaotic, if the imperial court is clear, the four seas will naturally be peaceful, and there will naturally be no ghost kings who make trouble. Chenghuang said.

"My guards were loyal and died for me, and for this reason I did not build a small temple for them so that they could enjoy the incense, but their ghosts were also suppressed by the ghost king. ”

Li Xiuyuan said: "If they go to reincarnation, then I naturally won't bother to ask more, but I can't bear this matter if they are captured by the ghost king, I can't let them die and be enslaved, I don't know if there is any way for the city god to save the ghosts of my guards?"

"There are two ways. ”

"Please advise. Li Xiuyuan said.

"I'm going to make a deal with the Ghost King, and exchange the incense and candle money for the ghosts of Li Gongzi's nineteen guards. Chenghuang said.

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said: "This method is not advisable, this ghost king has forcibly captured the guards of my Li family, how can I still spend money to dredge it, doesn't this fuel his arrogance?"

"Well, then there's only the second option. Chenghuang said.

"What's the solution?"

Chenghuang said: "Please Li Gongzi go to the underworld as a saint in the world, and personally take away the ghosts of the nineteen guards from the hands of the ghost king. ”

"How do I get to the underworld?" asked Li Xiuyuan.

Chenghuang said: "It's simple, I have a door here, which leads directly to the underworld, and I enter and exit the underworld through that door on weekdays, and Li Gongzi can enter the underworld through this door." ”

"Well, since there is a road to the underworld, then bother the city god to lead the way. Li Xiuyuan said.

"It's nature. Chenghuang said.

Immediately, Chenghuang gathered several teams of Yin soldiers and took Li Xiuyuan to a gate.

When the gate was opened, it was dark and windy, and there was no sun or moon, but no boundary.

This is Hades?

Li Xiuyuan looked inside curiously.

It's not as magical as you think, it's just like another world.

Actually, he was right to think so.

Hades is another world.

People have a human world, ghosts have a ghost world, and immortals have a fairy world.

This underworld is the realm of ghosts.
