Chapter 369 Ghost Boy

"Damn bald ass!"

Not long after Yan Xu left, a gust of cold wind blew, and an old ghost was seen sitting on a bone abacus and circling around the place for salvation. After feeling the peaceful and compassionate atmosphere of the place, he left immediately after leaving a curse as if avoiding a snake or scorpion, obviously blaming the monk.

There are more than three digits of ghost kings and demon cultivators of all sizes in Yinshan, and most of them have their own territories. But no matter how the ghosts and spirits in their territories fight each other, it is like food that is not eaten and rots in the ground and can be used as fertilizer. It will always be kept in the fields. But the monks' salvation is different. They take away the whole thing, not even a single ghost hair is left. Therefore, the ghost kings and demon cultivators in Yinshan hate people without hair the most.

For example, the ghost abacus that occupies this place is the most meticulous ghost. He would like to split a piece of paper money into two to spend. Once he senses something wrong, he will come to inspect, for fear that someone will take advantage of him.

It turned out to be a Buddhist method of salvation. Although Gui Suanpan was very angry, he had no good solution. He was just an old ghost, and if he really went to look for it, he might get himself implicated. So he ordered his little ghosts to spread the matter, intending to vent his anger with the help of others.

"Even if it's the bald donkey from the Jade Buddha Temple, he will pay the price this time." The ghost abacus fiddled with the eyeballs strung on the bone abacus beads. He felt heartbroken whenever he thought of the lost ghosts.

Even though he occupied a piece of territory in Yinshan, it was actually located at the outermost part. The ghosts that stayed here were not even fully sane, so there was no benefit to be gained from it.

Even so, it is a rare and good place for an old ghost like Gui Suanpan. He is just waiting for these ghosts to devour each other and give birth to a few that are worth his attention. In the end, they are all wiped out. It will take several years to gather so many again. No wonder he is so angry.

At this time, Yan Xu knew nothing about this and was happily hanging up his computer to pray for the souls of the dead.

The whole process was very simple. When he found a group of ghosts, he would stop and perform the ritual to liberate the souls. After that, he would leave immediately without staying for long. He traveled in the guise of a demon cultivator, killing or liberating all the ghosts that had seen him. That was why he was never discovered.

It went so smoothly, not because the ghosts and demons in Yinshan were weak, but because this is the outskirts of Yinshan. The really powerful characters are all in the deep mountains, and no one would stay here for no reason.

However, Yan Xu was still keenly aware that the atmosphere was not right. He did not bother to perform the salvation and made a detour back to the sick beauty's cave, but he did not know that someone came to visit him.

The ghost boy came to the cave of the sick beauty excitedly, stepping on a flaming skeleton, with a bone whip wrapped around his body and a puff of black smoke.

Lin Xiangqiao was drinking tea and eating snacks with Xu Feiyan. These were brought by Yan Xu after he had spent the first month. If he didn't have a way out, how could he dare to go to Yinshan to wander around, even with the protection of Ksitigarbha.

"This dim sum is really good, soft, sticky and delicious, and best paired with tea." Lin Xiangqiao was like someone with social anxiety. She stayed in her cave all year round and never went out. She naturally made do with her daily food and drink. So when she suddenly tasted the fine modern dim sum, she was full of praise for it.

"I've been to many towns in the mortal world, but I've never eaten this. I don't know where the master got it from." After taking a bite of the five-nut mooncake, Xu Feiyan said curiously.

Although there are cultivators in this world, the common people still live a miserable life, with oppression and exploitation at all levels, so there is an additional group of cultivators above them.

Most practitioners do not engage in production and rely on mortals to provide food, clothing and other necessities. At least this is the case for most practitioners with low strength. Therefore, even if they want to enjoy, they have to have the conditions.

So even though the snacks Yan Xu brought were just ordinary things, they were delicious enough, at least to the two of their likings.

"Eh? Why is the ghost boy here?" Lin Xiangqiao was very familiar with him, so she didn't think much about it. She unlocked the cave and let him in. "Lin Jie'er, eh? What's this delicious?" The ghost boy hung two skulls on his waist carelessly. He was about to say something when he smelled the snacks and swallowed his saliva.

"You are in for a treat. This was brought by my good friend Madam Miaoru. Although it is a mortal snack, it is very delicious. You should try it." Although Lin Xiangqiao was pale, she was very happy to see the ghost boy. She smiled and said when she heard this.

"Then I'd like to try it." The ghost boy wiped his hands, picked up the snack and started eating, without any shyness at all.

"His name is Ghost Boy, and he is a disciple of the Old Man with the Bitter Staff in Yinshan. Because he was too young when I picked him up, I sent him to take care of him for six years. Now he follows the Old Man with the Bitter Staff to practice in the Dead Wood Cliff, and his strength has surpassed mine by a lot." Lin Xiangqiao smiled and poured a glass of water for the Ghost Boy. He accepted it all, taking a bite of snack and sip of water, eating with great pleasure. It was obvious that he had not eaten anything good in the Dead Wood Cliff on a normal day.

"By the way, didn't you say a few days ago that you would go into seclusion? Why are you coming out again?" Lin Xiangqiao asked.

"There's no point in seclusion. I'm so bored. I'll sneak out for a walk and then go back. Master won't find out." The ghost boy, with snack crumbs all over his face, said proudly when he heard this.

Lin Xiangqiao and Xu Feiyan just smiled when they heard this, and no one took it seriously.

Are you kidding? The old man with the bitter stick is a big boss of the side sect and has already become an immortal. How could he not know that his disciple had secretly run away? He just closed his eyes and let him play around.

Thinking of this, the two couldn't help but feel envious.

For cultivators coming from unorthodox sects, it would be good enough if they could have a complete inheritance, let alone ascend to heaven. For example, Lin Xiangqiao and Xu Feiyan, each of them has an inheritance. If others tell others about their inheritance in unorthodox sects, they will be envied to death by a group of people. But compared with the ghost boy, they are nothing.

Not only does this person have a legacy, he also has guidance in cultivation. It can be said that as long as his own talent and physique are not too bad, it is hard to say whether he can become an immortal, but there should be no problem below being an immortal. Now, the ghost boy, who has only practiced for a few years, has already reached the same level of strength as the two of them.

"I met Gui Suanpan on the way, and learned from him that a monk broke into Yinshan Mountain and had already saved the souls of seven or eight places. They plan to unite and see if they can catch the other party. I will also help them to inquire about the news. Sister Lin, if you have any news, please send a message to me." The ghost boy said while eating pastries. Knowing that the sick beauty was not good at fighting, he did not invite her to join, but just asked her to send a message when she knew the news.

"That's no problem." Lin Xiangqiao never fights with others, but being in Yinshan, she has to choose one side to join.

After talking for a while, the ghost boy, who couldn't sit still, packed some snacks and prepared to walk around to see if he could find the monk and have a good fight.

Just then, Yan Xu came back and met the other party.

"This is the leader of the Ghost Tomb Sect, Master Ghost Gate. The snacks you are eating were brought by the leader." Lin Xiangqiao knew the temperament of the ghost boy and said hurriedly.

Sure enough, when the ghost boy heard that the delicious snacks were brought by the other party, his eyes lit up, he clasped his hands together, said thank you, and then left.

After the ghost boy left, Yan Xu learned from the two that this group of people were planning to join forces to capture the monks. He was secretly relieved, but he didn't know that his actions disrupted the plans of several monks.
