Although Fengdu City is called a city, it is actually a vast expanse of land. It forms its own world behind a city gate.
At this time, in Fengdu, there was a vast ghostly shadow. They were either carrying logs or square stones, and they made bursts of shouts from their mouths.
"One, two, three, get up!"
"One, two, three, get up!"
Accompanied by the shouts, under a huge pit not far away, a huge boulder wrapped with ropes slowly rose up and was sent to a platform above the head.
"Huh? Did you hear anything?"
"Sound? What sound?"
Among the shouts, there were suddenly two voices whispering to each other, making a rustling sound.
"Crack!" Before the two ghosts could continue their conversation, a whip sound rang through their ears.
"Work hard and don't be lazy!" A red-faced ghost flicked his whip and shouted sternly.
"Master Oversight Ghost, please calm down, the newcomer is ignorant!" Hearing the sound of the whip, a blue-faced ghost not far away came closer with a smile, nodded and bowed to the red-faced ghost, and then glared at the group of yellow-faced ghosts. Kid: "Didn't I tell you not to be distracted? What's wrong with you? Come here and apologize!"
Two yellow-faced ghosts came closer, but one of them was quite unhappy and muttered in a low voice: "Team leader, we are not lazy! We just feel something is wrong and want to give a warning..."
"Wrong? What's wrong?" Lan Lian panicked when he heard this, "I have checked the threats thoroughly in advance. You don't understand, so don't talk nonsense!"
"Click..."
Just as Lan Lian rubbed his neck and spoke, a slight sound came from above everyone's heads.
After the sound, a yellow-faced kid was seen leaning up and lying down on the spot.
"Boy! You dare to be lazy in front of the team leader and the supervisor ghost, I admire you!" Seeing this, the labor ghost beside him couldn't help but secretly admired.
"I...I didn't..." The yellow-faced kid's face turned orange. He hurriedly patted his butt and stood up. He shook the rope in his hand, "Yes...the rope is broken!"
"How is it possible? Didn't you say that the rope will not break?"
Seeing the rope in the yellow-faced ghost's hand, a group of labor ghosts suddenly became noisy.
"What's going on?" The overseer ghost also felt a little unbelievable and turned to look at Lan Lian.
"This..." Lan Lian's expression froze, but before he could speak, he heard the crackling sounds above his head, as if the New Year was celebrated in Fengdu.
Before the group of labor ghosts could react, they felt the sky turn dark. When he looked up, he saw that the boulder had broken free from the rope and hit his head.
Seeing this situation, a group of labor ghosts suddenly felt terrified! However, what they are worried about is not broken bones and flesh. After all, they are souls now, so their worries are unnecessary... Once they are hit by this boulder, their souls will be scattered in an instant and they will be relieved.
"Oops!" The red-faced overseer ghost turned purple when he saw this, and his voice did not sound like a ghost.
What he was worried about was not the lives of these laborers. After all, the most indispensable thing in Fengdu was these free laborers. The first thing he thought of was that what was about to happen was a major accident, so his red face might not be safe!
People cherish their lives while living, and the same goes for death. Although these labor ghosts are in a very difficult situation in Fengdu, none of them want to escape from the sea of misery.
Some of them reacted quickly and already took off their ropes and ran away! But those who were directly under the boulder were pushing each other, and the ropes were twisted into a ball. For a time, their true nature was revealed, and the previous harmony no longer existed.
From the crackling sound of the rope breaking to the falling of the boulder, it was only a short breath of time. Logically speaking, these labor ghosts should have been crushed into powder long ago! But the strange thing is that the huge boulder in front of me just landed on the heads of the working ghosts, and it never sank any further.
"Hahaha... Brothers! If you don't leave now, when will you stay?" Just when a group of labor ghosts were panicking, a hearty laughter came from under the boulder.
Only then did a group of labor ghosts react and hurriedly tore off the ropes around their waists and rolled out of the huge pit.
After all the labor ghosts had escaped, they saw the boulder flying several feet out of thin air, and then a burly man jumped out of the pit.
The man had just landed when the huge boulder hit the ground with a rumble, causing the ground to shake and making the red-faced ghosts and others unsteady.
However, the red-faced ghost didn't care too much at this time. He staggered to the front of the burly man, bowed and saluted: "The red-faced ghost pays homage to King Yishan!"
The tension on the blue-faced ghost's face receded, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Then he also came to this person and bowed respectfully.
"Hahaha, we are all family members, you two brothers don't need to be polite!" The visitor smiled heartily again, and hurriedly stepped forward to help the two of them up.
The two yellow-faced ghosts were in shock. They came back to their senses when they heard the greetings from them, and murmured: "Yi...Yishan King...Yishan King?" Although the two were very unfamiliar with the appearance of the visitor, they were familiar with the name. But it is very familiar. I dare to ask who in the Gongdian Palace does not know the name of King Yishan, the master of the Gongdian Palace?
The burly man looked over after hearing this and nodded towards the two of them.
The two yellow-faced ghosts did not expect that such a big man could be so kind and even greeted them. They were secretly happy and flattered.
"Hahaha, I'm really sorry for frightening all the brothers!" King Yishan clasped his fists at a group of labor ghosts in the distance, then turned to the red-faced ghost and said, "I see that I have plenty of time, so why don't you let all the brothers go back and rest for a few days? how!"
The red-faced ghost nodded repeatedly after hearing this: "I will obey the instructions of King Yishan!" After saying that, it cleared its throat, walked to a group of labor ghosts and handed over the instructions of King Yishan. The group of labor ghosts were also happy and dispersed.
"What's going on?" King Yishan asked calmly when only a few people were left in front of him.
The red-faced ghost didn't dare to breathe, and was sweating profusely: "Lord Huiyishan King, this matter is indeed my fault for not supervising it well..."
"I'm not asking you..." King Yishan glanced at the blue-faced ghost, "Tell me, what's going on?"
The blue-faced ghost grinned: "Lord Yishan King, I'm so sorry, I didn't expect that the rope would be discovered... I will definitely pay attention next time!"
Displeasure flashed across King Yishan's eyebrows: "Next time? There will be no next time! If I hadn't arrived in time, do you know what the consequences would have been?"
After a brief silence, King Yishan's expression became normal: "But since the results are the same, I will spare you this time..."
"How are you, good old man?" Before King Yishan finished speaking, he saw a red shadow falling behind several people.
Seeing the person coming, Yishan King frowned, and then said to the blue-faced ghost: "I still have something to do, I'll leave it to you to deal with." After saying that, Yishan King smiled and said hello to the person, and then He took the latter and left towards the distance.
"Eh? Isn't this the Red Dragon King, the master of the household hall? Why did he come here?" The red-faced ghost looked puzzled when he saw the person coming.
"Hey! Whoever he is, why does he think so much? Master Oversight Ghost, let's get down to business!" The blue-faced ghost rubbed his hands and chuckled.
"What's so mysterious?" The red-faced ghost frowned, and then waved to the two yellow-faced ghosts, "Let's go... remember not to talk nonsense about today's events!"
"I understand, Lord Oversight Ghost." The two yellow-faced ghosts couldn't wait to show off the fact that King Yishan greeted them. After agreeing, they turned around and left.
"Hey, you two have to go on your way!" The blue-faced ghost grinned, then clapped his hands and pulled out a hair-like thread from his palms!
Then, I saw this thin line floating without any wind, and actually caught up with the two yellow-faced ghosts walking on the road, and then slowly wrapped around the two yellow-faced ghosts. But the two yellow-faced ghosts didn't notice it at all and were still immersed in the lively conversation.
"Take it!" Realizing that the time had come, the blue-faced ghost showed his fangs, and then pulled back the hair on his palm with a pull of his arms.
As the thin line was retracted, the two people who were still walking forward were instantly divided into several pieces, and then scattered on the ground, turning into dust in an instant, and their souls were scattered.
"Blue-faced ghost, you...what are you doing?" Although the long whip in the red-faced ghost's hand is scary, it usually only has some intimidating effect. It has never fallen on any yellow-faced ghost. At this time, seeing the blue-faced ghost acting like this Cruel, the red-faced ghost also frowned.
"Hey, Lord Oversight Ghost, calm down, I have been ordered by Lord Yishan King! This is what happened..." The blue-faced ghost explained with a smile.
The red-faced ghost frowned more and more as he listened, but at the end he smiled bitterly: "Team leader, if you didn't tell me about this kind of thing earlier, you almost caused me to mess up the master's plan!"
"Master Taskmaster Ghost, you admitted this yourself! So..." The blue-faced ghost smiled slyly, "So you will have to punish yourself with three drinks later!"
Then the two of them stepped onto the mainland and left slowly, as if nothing had happened just now...
…
"Good old man, what were you doing just now? Hey... just watch it!"
In a tavern in Fengdu City, King Yishan was pouring wine for Zhu Kun, while the latter stared at the former with squinted eyes and asked with a half-smile.
King Yishan was so unnaturally stared at by Zhu Kun that he didn't even notice the wine spilling out of the glass. He hurriedly reached out to stop the drink and laughed, "The Red Dragon King was joking, I just happened to be passing by!"
"Really?" Zhu Kun took a sip of his drink and then exhaled, "What about last time?"
"Hahaha...last time, it was just a coincidence!"
"Oh? According to what you said...could it be a coincidence last time?" Zhu Kun turned the cup and chuckled.
"Hahaha, what the Red Dragon King said is true, it is indeed the case!" King Yishan said with a sneer.
"That really echoes what you said in the mortal world. I remember what it was called...what a coincidence! Hahaha..." Zhu Kun stopped the cup and laughed.
"That's right, that's right! Hahaha..." King Yishan also echoed. He only laughed a few times, but suddenly stopped and hurriedly changed the subject: "Ahem... Don't worry, Red Dragon King, I have already arranged the boy's affairs..."
Zhu Kun waved his hand: "Put this kid's matter aside for now. I have other things I want to ask you..." With that, Zhu Kun took out a package from his arms.
"Oh?" King Yishan thought that the Red Dragon King was worried about his affairs, but he was relieved when he heard that it was about other matters. When he saw the package, his eyes suddenly lit up, he patted his chest repeatedly, and his expression became serious.
"Red Dragon King, if you have anything to say, it doesn't matter!"
