Chapter 366 Temporary Commander
Through talking with the ghosts, Jiang Li knew a lot about the underworld. There are ten rulers in the underworld, and they are also called the ten halls of hell. All affairs in the underworld are decided by them.
There are countless ghosts and immortals in the underworld, who can compete with the fairy world.
The underworld manages the undead, and has no interest in the affairs of the world.
There are many fairy artifacts in the underworld, all of which are related to reincarnation, and the lack of any one of them may lead to chaos in the order of reincarnation.
These can all correspond to what Chang Cun Xianweng told.
Jiang Li thought, the underworld was under attack, whether it was foreign enemies or internal strife, all of which meant that the situation in the underworld was not very good, maybe the underworld was too chaotic, which caused black and white to have no time to find himself to return to the book of life and death.
If it is a foreign enemy, Jiang Li guesses that it is an extraterritorial demon or a great power in the fairy world. If it is a civil strife, the source must be the destruction of the world by the extraterritorial demon, which leads to an imbalance of life and death.
In short, there is a high probability that it has something to do with the extraterrestrial demons.
"What were you doing near the tavern last night?" Du Ping was curious.
Xiaofang's eyes were blurred: "I don't know, I just think that street is very familiar, as if I have been there before. Maybe I was in this world in my previous life."
"Last night, I wanted to go for a walk on that street. Maybe I could remember things from my previous life. As soon as I appeared, I saw you rushing towards me."
"The yang energy on your body is too terrifying, it is very dangerous to me, I was so scared that I ran away in a hurry."
Du Ping was speechless, listening to Xiaofang, it seemed that he was the scary ghost.
"What should be done with these ghosts?"
"No rush, let's help Xiaofang find her family first." Jiang Li used his spiritual sense to see a portrait of a certain family in Anyang City, showing the couple and their daughter.
The daughter in the portrait looks exactly like Xiaofang.
…
Qi Ming returned home, sat down on the wooden chair, looked at the portraits on the table, and burst into tears.
In these years, she has been living in the pain of losing her daughter. Every year after she sacrifices her daughter, she only does one thing, which is to wait for her daughter's death day next year.
The two-hundred-year lifespan of the Jindan monk made her very painful. She wanted to end her life more than once, but she couldn't do it.
She always felt that she would see her daughter again.
The husband didn't want to stay in Anyang City, which brought back sad memories, and move to other places.
Qi Ming guarded the huge house, not knowing what to do, living like a walking corpse every day, just like the high-spirited Jindan monk fifty years ago.
"Daughter, Mom is sorry for you." Qi Ming hugged the portrait, weeping uncontrollably.
Under blurred tears, Qi Ming vaguely saw his daughter standing in front of him.
Qi Ming rubbed his eyes and found that his daughter really appeared in front of him.
"Xiaofang, is that you?"
Qi Ming stretched out her hand tremblingly, trying to touch this familiar face, but was surprised to find that her hands passed through her daughter's body, and she couldn't touch anything.
Xiaofang didn't know how to respond, she forgot everything, but thought Qi Ming was very familiar.
In Xiaofang's memory, it was the first time she saw Qi Ming, but she seemed to know Qi Ming's name, and she couldn't say it out of her mouth.
Who is she?
Xiaofang couldn't remember Qi Ming's identity, nor could she remember the relationship between them.
Until Xiaofang noticed the portrait in Qi Ming's hand, the girl in the portrait looked exactly like herself.
However, Xiaofang still can't remember her past life.
She was a little overwhelmed.
"This is your mother Qi Ming. Your name is Qi Gufang. She died fifty years ago."
"Ren, Renhuang?" Only then did Qi Ming notice that besides Xiaofang, there were Jiangli and the other three in the room.
"I accidentally met this ghost named Xiaofang. I think she should be your daughter."
Jiang Li briefly told about Xiaofang's background, and only then did Qi Ming realize that he was not dreaming.
The daughter stood in front of her.
It's just that no matter how hard Qi Ming tries, he can't touch his daughter.
"I'm sorry, I don't remember you." Xiaofang whispered, even though she knew that the woman in front of her was her mother, she really didn't remember anything, and felt uncomfortable with Qi Ming's actions.
"It's okay, it's okay... It doesn't matter if you don't remember mom, as long as you are here..." Qi Ming cried, her daughter's appearance was beyond her expectations, so she couldn't expect anything more.
"Thank you, Emperor." Qi Ming kowtowed to Jiang Li, but was lifted up by Jiang Li with invisible strength.
Jiang Li said gently: "You wipe my statue every day, pay homage to me, and pray for my blessing. This is already a thank you to me."
There is a statue of Jiang Li in Qi Ming's house, and Jiang Li can feel the strong power of faith from it.
"I want to build a city near the Human Emperor's Hall, and gather all the ghosts living in Kyushu there, and Xiaofang is no exception. I hope you can understand."
After figuring out the origin of the ghosts, Jiang Li wanted to gather the ghosts together. After all, although the ghosts were harmless, they knew very little about ghosts, and they might cause problems if they were scattered around for a long time.
"Then can I go to that city?"
"sure."
Qi Ming breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he can go, it's nothing more than living in another place.
"Du Ping, the Human Emperor's Palace is short of manpower now, and I know you well. You are not bad by nature, but you just like drinking."
"I appoint you as the temporary commander of the Human Emperor's Palace. The inspection period is ten years. If you don't cause trouble within ten years, I will agree with you to become the real commander."
"Do you have any objections to this appointment?"
Du Ping was overjoyed: "I have seen the Palace Master!"
He did not expect that the 50-year inspection period would be shortened to ten years, and his identity was no longer a candidate for the commander, but a temporary commander.
"Since you agree, I will give you a task. I will let Commander Liu build a city near the Human Emperor's Hall. What you have to do is to bring all the ghosts of Kyushu to the newly built city."
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
Du Ping said that he should do his first mission beautifully.
"Kong Kong, after this incident, are you still afraid of ghosts?" Jiang Li smiled.
Ji Kongkong blushed, her fear of ghosts was greatly reduced, and thinking of her previous appearance, she really wanted to find a crack in the ground and sneak in.
It was only then that she realized that she was the one scaring herself.
No, it is obvious that the father deliberately told ghost stories to scare himself.
She still remembered what her father said.
"Kong Kong, you are tired of listening to Uncle Jiang's stories before going to bed. Father will tell you a different story for a change."
Jiang Li burst into tears after hearing this: "Is that what he told you?"
When Jiang Li and Ji Zhi were studying, Jiang Li also used the same rhetoric to tell ghost stories to Ji Zhi.
"Ji Zhi, are you tired from reading? Let me tell you a story to relax your mind. By the way, don't use double pupils. The most important thing about this story is the sense of mystery."
Jiang Li still remembered that Ji Zhi was so frightened that he had to use double pupils when he went to the toilet at night, to see the future ahead of time, worried about ghosts on his head, grimaces on his crotch, red embroidered shoes at the door, etc.
Ji Kongkong looked at Jiang Li resentfully.
It turned out that the incident was caused by Uncle Jiang.
