Chapter 23 Tokens
When asked about Zhu Yunwen's previous life, Gui Bugui smiled and said, "You will know when it's time to know... Okay, our new home is already empty. Just clean it up and you can move in. Rubai, you can drive the carriage in. I will use fragrant sausage in the front and back yards. I haven't been in many years. So I can clean it up..."
From this day on, a big news broke out in Nanjing. People had lived in the mansion of the famous haunted house in the city, Xiwo Dyeing Bureau, and the family didn't know what the origin was. After moving in, the palace kept delivering the royal daily necessities here. Every day, dozens of big trucks were parked at the gate, dozens of eunuchs and servants went in one after another to deliver the big boxes.
A few days later, the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau posted a notice. The family began to recruit servants. At first, no one rushed to the scene, but the second notice was posted soon. The servants recruited by the family gave a salary of one to five taels of silver according to different jobs. At that time, the general servants in the palace of princes and nobles were only two cents of silver. The better big girl was only five cents, and this family gave a salary of up to five taels of silver. It was sixty taels of silver a year, which was comparable to one.
A seventh-rank county magistrate... There are always people who make money and live without their lives in this world. Seeing that this family had moved into a haunted house for a few days, nothing happened. Now, a brave person went to the mansion to take the opportunity. The next day, this person walked out of the house and the good people came to inquire. There was nothing that happened that night, and the haunted house seemed to be nonsense. Moreover, this family was a rich man, and he gave a big red envelope of ten taels of silver on the first day of his work.
At this moment, the other men, women, young and old were about to squeeze into this family. Under Gao Rubai's screening, thirty men and women were left behind. After arranging their respective positions, they stayed in the mansion to work. The rest of the people who did not enter the mansion regretted it.
One day at noon about half a month later, the senior manager took all the servants in the mansion on vacation and asked them to come back to work tomorrow morning.
Although I don’t understand what the people in this mansion are doing, I am very happy that I can have half a day off.
When it was completely dark in the evening, Gao Rubai closed the door, and then Gui Bugui began to cast spells to recruit several godsons who were working as underworld. When a pillar of incense was burned, Ding Sanlang, Jia Lu and Gui Ji appeared in the dark.
"Old Alliance Father, I haven't seen you for a long time. What are the instructions for us to come up with this time?" Ding Sanlang, who led the lead, paid a gift to Wu Mian. After Gui Gui or Not, he continued, "We will first tell you a big event to the old man. The thousands of souls of the Taoist priests you left in the underworld were sent to reincarnation last night. According to your instructions and Master Dafang, they are all rich and powerful families. Punishment Lu is writing a roster and will be used for you to see in two days."
Thinking of the souls of those alchemists, Gui Bugui sighed and said, "Oh, this is a big deal. They were reincarnated among Yan Jun's personal soldiers. Three hundred years have passed in a flash, and now they have sent all these souls to reincarnation."
"At that time, Mr. Yan relied on the power of these souls to recover the entire underworld. However, no one expected that it would take so long to completely recover the entire underworld thirty years ago." The fat Jia Lu also sighed, and then continued with a smile: "But this time, you called the three of us brothers up, and I don't know what instructions."
"I dare not take the order, I'm really worried about something." Gui Bugui smiled and waved to the back, saying, "Let's come out, the three sullis will take you to reincarnation..." Before he finished speaking, dense souls surged out of the back house. They knelt in front of the three sullis.
"Old man, this is the evil ghost of the Xizhiran Bureau..." Ding Sanlang smiled bitterly and continued, "I have guided them once, but at that time these souls were crazy and didn't even listen to my underworld words. He also injured several of my ghost servants because of the large number of people..." While speaking, it turned around and looked at its two brothers.
Cui Ji understood Ding Sanlang's meaning, and it hurriedly explained: "The old man is a little troublesome. When Ding Er Ge came down to take him, they not only did not leave but threatened the underworld. The incident was already known by Yan Jun. Yan Jun ordered these dead souls in the weaving and dyeing bureau to die for themselves, and we were not allowed to take care of them..."
"So there is something else. No wonder when I told them to come to the underworld to guide them, they were all so strange." Gui Bugui looked at the three underworld in front of him, then laughed, and continued, "It's not a good idea to gather more than a thousand souls in the capital. Is this good? I'll give you an idea. The souls in the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau are all stubborn evil spirits. But it's not true if you leave the Weaving and Dyeing Bureau? I'll let them go from all over the world. You are in Shandong and Shanxi to guide them, you can't say that they are also evil spirits here, right?"
Seeing Gui Bugui's words have already reached this point, the three underworld members knew that they could not help their godfather's face. Ding Sanlang continued: "Then do as the old alliance father wants, but you can't release all of them all at once. You are scattered, so we can collect ten or eight more souls every day and get over..."
"I just knew that your brother three loved me." After Gui Bugui smiled, the old man changed the topic by himself: "Now that the underworld has been completely unified. Are you satisfied now? Now that you have no Gu Zhiyou, the underworld should also take some rest..."
"Old Alliance, let's put the affairs of the underworld aside. This time, if you don't ask the three of us brothers to come up, we have something to talk to the old Alliance..." While talking, Ding Sanlang took out a small bronze medal from his arms. After handing his hands to Gui Bugui's hand, he continued: "This was three days ago, the right gate envoy guarding the demon mountain passage picked up such a token. Last night, when Jia Lu returned to the underworld with the ghost, he also found the same piece in the Yin and Yang Realm. That is, the piece in your old man's hand..."
"This is the decree of the Demon Mountain..." Gui Bugui saw the source of the bronze medal at one glance. After he glanced at it, he called Gao Rubai and asked him to take the token to see Wu Mian and two monsters who were still in the back house. After watching the senior manager leave, the old guy looked at the three underworlds and said, "If you say so, the demon king has arrived at the underworld? Is there any reaction from Yan Jun?"
"Yan Jun has issued an order. As long as the whereabouts of the demon king are found in the underworld, they will be killed without mercy..." Ding Sanlang said, suddenly lowered his voice and continued: "And Yan Jun is also worried that the demon king has colluded with a big figure in the underworld and is ready to settle it inside and outside. Now several decrees have been issued. All the newly enfeoffed ghost kings, judges, etc. are going to Fengdu to see each other. There is a rumor that has been spread. It plans to take action first. Before they can take action, they will settle them first..."
"Now the underworld and the Demon Mountain are both seriously injured. If the trouble continues, even if the demon mountain is dragged down, the life in the underworld will not be easy." Gui Bugui sighed and continued, "The underworld will not be easy even if the underworld collapses... I hope you Mr. Yan is not crazy and want to die with the Demon Mountain."
At this time, Bai Wuqiu's voice sounded like a sound of roaring: "Did Ding Sanlang and the others bring it?
There are twelve tokens in total, why is there only one piece? What about the remaining eleven tokens? The token holder is like a demon king coming? Where did you find it..."
