Siheyuan: Game of Red Dust

Chapter 289: Maoshan Taoist Priest Comes to the Real World
"Well, okay, you arrange for someone to handle it first, and deal with the matter of the underworld as soon as possible!"

"Got it, Dad."

The two chatted for a while, and then Zhou Zhennan hung up the phone. After Li Weidong finished dealing with the shipbuilding matters, he went home and entered his small world.

After entering the small world, Li Weidong immediately summoned Uncle Jiu and other Taoist priests from the Maoshan Sect.

"Uncle Jiu, the other world merged with yours, and a small problem has arisen. Because that world has integrated your rules, but not the underworld, the people there will become ghosts after they die. However, since there are no ghost messengers, these ghosts have nowhere to go. They can only hide in the world of the living. I am not familiar with the structure of the underworld yet, so there is no way to create a underworld right away.

I can only ask you to collect those ghosts temporarily. After I understand the structure of the underworld, I will create a new underworld in that world. You can then put these collected ghosts into it and let them reincarnate.

Of course, I won't let you work in vain. I'll give you some spirit wine as a reward." Li Weidong said to Uncle Jiu and the others, explaining the real world situation to them and making it clear what they needed to do, including the rewards.

Except for Uncle Jiu, Taoist Simu and Taoist Qianhe, the other Maoshan disciples did not know the function of the spiritual wine. Uncle Jiu quickly told them about the function of the spiritual wine, its benefits for cultivation, and its taste.

When the Taoists of Maoshan Sect heard what Uncle Jiu said, their eyes lit up. They were all eager for this spiritual wine and couldn't wait to go to that world and have a great fight right away.

"No problem, we can pack up and set off right away." After finishing the discussion with them, he said to Li Weidong.

Li Weidong nodded.

"Then pack up, and I'll teleport you to another world. I'll talk to the military leaders there and have them send someone to pick you up. You'll probably need to live there for a while, but it won't be too long, definitely not more than a month. At the fastest, I estimate it'll be just over ten days. I'll be able to analyze and complete the structure of the underworld, and once it's built, you can come back."

After Li Weidong finished speaking, Uncle Jiu and the others nodded, then went back to pack their things and prepare to go to another world.

Li Weidong said something to Zhou Xiaolin and took Uncle Jiu and the others back to the real world.

When they arrived at Li Weidong's home in the real world, Li Weidong asked them to sit aside and then called Zhou Zhennan.

"Dad, I have arranged all the people. Should I send a car to take them there, or will you come to pick them up? These people are Taoist priests from the Maoshan Sect. They are professionals in collecting ghosts. After I have analyzed the structure of the underworld and created the underworld from the real world, they will send the ghosts into the underworld for reincarnation, and then let them come back." Li Weidong said directly to Zhou Zhennan.

Zhou Zhennan on the other end of the phone also agreed with Li Weidong's method. He directly told Li Weidong an address and asked him to send these people directly to this place. There would be a special person to receive them and then send them to various parts of the world to deal with ghost matters in various places.

After Li Weidong and Zhou Zhennan finished their phone call, they immediately called the research institute and asked them to arrange a car to pick them up immediately.

About ten minutes later, the institute's car arrived.

Li Weidong said to Uncle Jiu, "Uncle Jiu, get in the car. If you need anything, just tell the driver and he will prepare it for you. These cars will take you to those places. There will be people there to receive you. When the time comes, you can ask about the situation there and assign yourselves a seat. Because that world is so big, you can't stay together. You will probably be sent to different places. There will be people there to receive you. If you are not satisfied with anything about food, clothing, housing and transportation, just tell them directly. Don't be polite. After completing the mission, I will take you back to the small world."

Uncle Jiu and the others nodded, and then got into the car one by one. After seeing that they were all seated, Li Weidong took a few people back to their residence and asked them to move twenty jars of spirit wine, of course small jars, each weighing about two kilograms, and then loaded them into the car for them.

Li Weidong walked over to Uncle Jiu's car and said to the man inside, "Uncle Jiu, I brought you twenty jars of spirit wine for your journey. I wish you a safe journey!"

After greeting Uncle Jiu and the others, Li Weidong asked the driver to drive Uncle Jiu and the others to the address given by Zhou Zhennan. After seeing Uncle Jiu and the others leave, Li Weidong entered the small world and began to study the structure and construction of the underworld subspace.

For the next period of time, Li Weidong spent most of his time in the small world, studying the structure and operation rules of the underworld.

Uncle Jiu and the others came to the place designated by Zhou Zhennan. After some discussion, they were dispersed and sent to various parts of the world to deal with ghosts in various places. For the Taoist priests of Maoshan Sect, this was their job and basic skills. After all, their Maoshan Sect had been dealing with ghosts in the zombie world. Even after death, they could go to the underworld to work, so these things were really child's play for them. With their joining, the ghosts in the real world were collected and no chaos was caused in the real world.

Moreover, Uncle Jiu and his companions discovered that they would gain a small amount of merit every time they rescued a ghost. If it were not for the fact that the Maoshan Sect had been protecting the zombie world and gaining merit for cultivation, they would be very sensitive to the growth of merit and would not be able to perceive it at all because it was too weak.

This is also a manifestation of the will of the real world. Although he has no self-awareness, he also knows that if these ghosts continue to wander outside, they will die directly due to exposure to the scorching sun. In other words, Uncle Jiu and other Maoshan Taoist priests saved the dying ghosts and allowed them to survive, so they distributed a small amount of merit to reward them.

Uncle Jiu and the other Maoshan Taoists were overjoyed when they sensed the increase in merit. This was the merit gained from saving these souls. If these souls were reincarnated, how much more merit could they gain? Perhaps it could even directly elevate them to a higher realm. This was a rare opportunity. Now, they no longer collected souls for Li Weidong's rewards. They all became extremely excited. After all, this was related to the growth of their cultivation.
