Wet viviparity

Chapter 154 Ghost King, Bao Ruyi
On the north bank of Luoyin Lake, close to the big city of Feixiong in Zhexiong Prefecture, it is only two or three hundred miles away from Taiping Mountain in the northwest.

Here, the jurisdiction of the underworld is unprecedentedly strong. The water monsters and thieves in Luoyin Lake dare not show up easily. It is also the first choice of the Taoists of Taiping Mountain for candidates for underworld officials.

Tonight, on the northern bank, on the eastern shore of the lake, the deputy ranger under the command of the Night Ranger is patrolling the fields.

Tian Ye's family was not high-class, but he was able to obtain the position of deputy general after passing the Taoist examination, all thanks to his diligent work beside a Taoist master.

After he took office, he had been inspecting the local areas conscientiously and responsibly. Although he drank a little too much tonight, he soon sobered up in the wet breeze by the lakeshore.

When the sound of the conch sounded, he was completely awake.

As Taoist officials have developed to this day, the lowest-level Yinli system has become increasingly bloated, especially in the hundreds of miles of area radiating from Taiping Mountain, which is known as a blessed and spiritual land with many opportunities. The Yin positions in the local government here are very specific.

Tian Ye held up a card with 'behead' on one side and 'guilt' on the other. This was made from the death card inserted into the back of a criminal when he was about to be executed. It was considered a hidden treasure and was equipped by the chief and deputy generals under the day and night wandering gods.

If the "sin" on the back is aroused, the nearby ghost officials and generals will feel it.

After doing this, Tian Ye took the cards in his hand and called on his soldiers to carefully explore the sandbar by the lake.

On the sandbar, Wu Liang, dressed in gold and silver, was blowing the conch and performing a strange dance. He was very resistant at first, but was soon brought into the state by the power of the conch.

Little Qiulong stepped reluctantly in front of the altar. More and more wild ghosts gathered under the altar, among which drowned ghosts were the majority.

These little ghosts were black and wet, like a bunch of rotten seaweed fished out of the lake, with many dead fish and shrimps hanging on them.

Ji Ming moved the blood tumor Buddhist beads, and the tumors kept turning between his fingers. The faster he moved them, the more Buddhist chants could be heard from each tumor.

Ji Ming sang along, and Xiao Qiulong also sang along.

"Prepare a vegetarian feast and give alms with great compassion.

Relieve the hungry and share the Dharma food.

Wandering in the void, saving all without limit.

The merits of burnt noodles are the result of good cooking.

The underworld sits in peace and rewards with nectar.

King Pingdeng, come tonight."

"This is..." Deputy Ranger Tian Ye, who was hiding in the dark, listened to the praise and thought to himself, "This is the praise of the Burnt-faced Ghost King. This is to ask the Ghost King to recite the Dharma."

"not enough!
not enough!"

Under the altar, more and more hungry ghosts gathered around Wu Liangdao.

"Disciple!"

Ji Ming shouted loudly, and Wu Liang, who had lost his mind, obeyed the order and blew the conch with all his strength.

Under the sound of the conch, the water monsters near the sandbar were soon seduced into losing their minds and climbed up the sandbar spontaneously one by one. The faces of the people hidden on the side changed drastically.

Ji Ming raised his hand towards the Flesh Lotus Platform, and the Void Warriors in the celestial bodies jumped out one by one, wandering in the lake and capturing the monsters that were trying to struggle.

The monsters with complete humanoid forms were not affected. They created huge waves outside the sandbar and rushed over with a roar. A huge hand with strong energy came down and captured them all and threw them in front of the altar on the island.

In a moment, the altar was full, the hungry ghosts feasted on the food, the chanting became louder, and more water monsters were attracted.

Tian Ye felt dizzy and was trying hard to hold on.

He hid in the shallows, gathered his breath and focused his mind, trying his best to conceal himself. At this moment, he saw a familiar figure on the lake.

"The Catfish Wanderer, who has practiced Taoism for a hundred years, is about to transform.

He is a water demon on the wanted list of the local government. He often gathers energy to cultivate his body in the local villages and towns. It is said that he has gathered energy from hundreds of people, and he was attracted to it."

The fat, rough, black man who came walking on the waves was holding a steel fork, wearing a fine iron armor robe, with a face full of messy beard, and laughing with his big mouth wide open.

"Who are you, ghost? How dare you invade my demon realm?"

Just as he finished speaking, a gray and silver round light rose from the sandbar and hung high in the air, covering this place, and his heart skipped a beat.

At this moment, his body seemed to be entangled with thousands of thin ropes, and he could not break free. In his anxiety, his true form as a fat catfish was revealed, and he was immediately lifted up and thrown onto the sandbar.

"I am."

Just as the catfish monster was about to report its assets, swarms of hungry ghosts swarmed over, drilling into its flesh, internal organs, and head, and in a moment it became a skeleton.

Tian Ye bit his cheek tightly, and was about to retreat, but was stopped by the group of ghosts he brought with him. It turned out that they had been deceived by the wonderful music of the conch shell. At this time, a more magnificent Buddhist sound was heard, and he looked up and saw auspicious colors descending on the sandbar.

Amidst the colorful auspicious colors, a shadow fell down and landed straight on Wu Liang's body. Bright flames rose up and formed a wheel of fire.

Outside the sandbar, several tons of lake water evaporated at once, forming a strange sight like a sky full of water vapor.

"This ghost king's magic power is much stronger than that of the Three Star Gods of Fortune, Longevity and Happiness!" Ji Ming had just come up with this thought, but he quickly denied it. He thought to himself, "It must be the special care that the Burnt-faced Ghost King has for King Huang Jue. After all, he has served for many years in this life, and I guess he has left a name in the ghost king's heart."

"Wu Liang" sat cross-legged on a sandbar, with lowered brows and kind eyes, his hands in the preaching seal.

One is seen twisting his thumb and middle finger together, while the rest of his fingers are naturally relaxed. One seal is held vertically, and the other is held horizontally, and the two seals are put together, representing the meaning of preaching the Dharma to sentient beings.

It is a pity that the ghosts below do not understand the Ghost King's intention, nor do they appreciate the Ghost King's mercy. They only follow their instincts and only care about filling their stomachs. It is truly sad.

"This time, we have donated to thirty hungry ghosts, which means we have accumulated 1,181 Yin De. Do you want to extend the time for borrowing the four Yin Treasures?"

"really!"

Ji Ming guessed that Huang Jue must have been giving alms to hungry ghosts all the time in order to accumulate the number of three thousand so that he could serve under the Ghost King.

Now the words of the Ghost King Fanian confirmed his thoughts. Huang Jue's 1,181 merits were accumulated from his past donations.

But I didn't expect that the lotus pedestal, Buddhist beads, trident halberd and frog-mouthed conch were all borrowed from the King of Ghosts, and they were the merits accumulated by donating flowers to hungry ghosts.

You can borrow Yin treasures from the Ghost King, and there is also a considerate renewal service. Is the Ghost King of the Underworld already so comprehensive? !

"I am here to make a donation and summon my thoughts, hoping to obtain a treasure secret that is suitable for my treasure to upgrade the magic weapon."

As he spoke, he released the White Bone Heart Bead.

"Wu Liang" just glanced at it, and then the Dharma Seal changed into the Vow Seal, which means to make all the wishes of sentient beings come true.

“This treasure was consecrated with a bone relic, which is in line with the Buddha’s intention. It contains precious light, but it is contrary to its evil spirit.

In order to upgrade this treasure to a magic weapon and walk the path of reincarnation, I have two magic spells that can help you achieve it.

One is the wheel treasure, which was first created by the great Buddha, the Wheel King. If you use this pearl as a foundation, you may be able to create a wheel treasure that can "make flesh and blood wither and make bones grow flesh."

"wonderful!"

Ji Ming's mind brightened and he said.

"The first is the precious Ruyi. The best of these treasures is the "Three Insects Precious Ruyi" passed down by the Ruyi Immortal personally by Huang Tian.

Your Yin treasure already has the Buddha's light representing birth and the white bones representing death. If you can find another rare treasure that can control and balance the two concepts of birth and death, you may be able to create a rare Ruyi in the world."

"This is good!"

Ji Ming was even more delighted when he heard this.

He almost subconsciously thought of his own precious eye. The status of that precious eye was extremely high and could be considered a divine treasure. The ability of reincarnation within it was in line with the law of birth and death.

If he could borrow some of the magical treasure-refining skills, he would definitely be able to avoid many detours on the road to refining magic weapons.

"Just choose Bao Ruyi!"

Ji Mingdao.

"Um"

"Wu Liang" nodded slightly and said, "Since you have the ambition to refine the treasure, I will only accept 800 merits from you and teach you the secret of refining the treasure."

He raised his hand, and found a handle-shaped symbol in his palm. In an instant, Ji Ming had a profound secret of treasure refining in his mind.

When Ji Ming slowly woke up and broke away from the mystery of the treasure, Wu Liang's body had turned into a pile of bones on the sandbar and under the altar. It was too difficult for him to carry the magic thoughts.

"There are still several hundred Yin De left to be spent, what a waste."

Ji Ming picked up the conch and looked at Xiao Qiulong.

"Master, I have a treasure, I have a treasure, I can definitely help you refine it."

Ji Ming patted Xiao Qiulong's head and said, "I forgot that there are many treasures in the Water Palace Dragon Palace."

"Little guy from Taiping Mountain, you've been peeping for a long time, it's time for you to come out."
