Chapter 108 Bells

When Zhu Zhuo asked this question, outside the window, the ghost waiting for the 'big meal' had already waited for its 'big meal'. A full table was set up, which was no different from the food in the world. It was grabbing a piece of barbecue at the moment.

', was enjoying the meal, but did not forget to give himself a sip of wine while chewing.

In this lonely, desperate and chaotic new city, how many souls can resist such temptation?

"Do you have to eat everything in the inn to make everything look like the real world?" I didn't answer Zhu Zhuo's question. Instead, I looked out the window and asked.

"Yes, the adults in the inner city say that everything here will be as close to the world as possible. Although I don't know why, it is because of this that the new city is more attractive than the old city. I think this is good. Even

The yin energy given by Master Hongren is also like the food in the yang world, which sometimes makes me feel that I am still alive." When talking about this, Zhu Zhuo looked a little sad, but also a little satisfied.

All this made me sigh. Yes, everything is made to look like the world of the underworld. Naturally, it is very attractive to ghosts. And through such rules and methods, I will also cultivate a group of powerful beings for myself.

Bar?

What does the owner of this city want to do? And is the 'owner' of this city a sprite? What role does Yu Cuizi play in it? In fact, I have no doubt in my heart that sprites actually have the ability to make their souls bigger.

A dream if it was a very powerful monster.

Thinking of this, I looked at Zhu Zhuo a little apologetically and said: "Maybe we won't live here because our time is very tight, so I won't tell you the reason. However, you can believe this Master Jue Yuan, he said

If you can get a good salvation, you can."

There was a hint of sadness on Zhu Zhuo's face, but more of a disappointment, but in this city, in such a cruel environment, everyone would have secrets, and it might not be a good thing to find out.

Zhu Zhuo moved his lips, but after all he didn't ask us why. He just asked in a low voice: "How tight will the time be?"

The time agreed upon by Ji Feng and I was three days. I don’t think Hucun can survive at most five days. If it is limited to three days, it will already be the second day when we enter this ghost town. If it is limited to five days, it will be the second day.

, no matter how much time we have, we will never have more than three days.

So, I said to Zhu Zhuo: "We only have two or three days, I mean the time of the Yang world."

Zhu Zhuo said "Oh" and said: "The time in Yangshi is different from here. Time passes much faster here. Staying here for two days is equivalent to one day in Yangshi."

I can understand this, just like the ghost market back then, wasn't it the same? I felt that I stayed there for a long time, and it was only a short period of time after I came out. You can't equate the time in the dream with the real time.

"How do you confirm the time here?" I looked out the window. The sky outside the window was gray, with a few wisps of light red. It was quite different from the purple-red sky on the lake outside.

I don't think I can tell the difference between day and night in this kind of sky.

"It's daytime now, and the sky is gray-red. At night, the sky will turn into night, which is no different from the Yangshi world, and all the lights on the city wall will light up. When there are only eight lights left on the city wall,

When you turn on a big light, it's a new day, and the sky will turn this gray-red color again." Zhu Zhuo said this with a helpless tone. He had already passed a lot of days when the lights were turned on and off.

Bar?

"When will Master Hongren appear next?" I asked again. Through my understanding of this new city, I had already figured out the direction of my future actions, that is, we must enter the inner city.

We don't have time to wait for some test before entering the inner city. According to Zhu Zhuo, it will take several years to achieve it based on the time in the city.

So, through these conversations, I came up with two directions. The first one is the most direct way, to go directly into the inner city.

The second way is to meet Master Hongren. If he is constantly doing the work of salvation and preaching the Dharma here, he must know something about it.

According to the time here and the 2:1 comparison with the real time, we can stay here for about 6 days, but if we can't wait until the last two days to wait for Master Hongren, it will be meaningless to us, because I can't estimate what we will do.

After going through what kind of battle, and also looking for the clues left by the master, waiting for him at the end, there is not enough time.

Seeing my question, Zhu Zhuo thought for a moment while dragging his chin, and then said: "I said before that Master Hongren will appear once every five days, basically rain or shine, with few exceptions. But when you meet Hongren

Master, I'm afraid it will have to wait until four days later, because he only appeared once before yesterday."

When I heard this, my face changed. This situation was slightly better than the worst case scenario I expected. The worst case scenario I expected was that Master Hongren only appeared once yesterday.

It seems that we may not have the fate to meet Master Hongren. Thinking of this, I sighed.

We have been here in Zhu Zhuo for almost an hour and a half, and we cannot delay any longer. Thinking of this, I said to Zhu Zhuo: "We are not familiar with this city and have already lost our way. Can you take me with you?"

As we wander around this city, is it okay to take a route from here to the inner city?"

When I said this, I was very embarrassed because I had no reward to give Zhu Zhuo.

Zhu Zhuo hesitated for a moment, and then said: "There is no problem in taking you around, but you also know that I have no ability, and my normal range of activities will not go beyond this street, except when Master Hongren appears.

, will go further, and have to rely on the protection of others (other ghosts). I will pay others protection money and take you there. I can't come back alone."

Xiao Chengqian was happy when he heard this and said, "Boy, we don't need protection money."

And I said gently: "We will send you back, don't worry." With my memory, as long as I go through such a road once, I will never forget it. It is not a problem to send Zhu Zhuo back.

A woodcutter by mistake doesn't care about such a small amount of time.

Now that we have decided to break into the inner city, we have enough time.

Zhu Zhuo nodded heavily and said: "Okay, let's go out with you. Some people here know that I have powerful bodyguards, so they don't dare to bully me. I don't need to cut my flesh."

"What does cutting meat mean?" Ruyue asked curiously.

"It's just protection money. Cutting off your body means giving part of your soul power to them, or you got a donation from Master Hongren and gave half of it to them. But it's okay. This is a ghost town after all, and it's full of yin energy. After cutting off your body,

, I can always recover after some time, and when Master Hongren saves me, I can also heal this pain." Zhu Zhuo said calmly.

But I am full of pity for Zhu Zhuo. It was not devoured, but was kept in captivity like a cow by the so-called strong men here, who exploited it in a steady stream. It was not easy for it to live here.

Or, this is already a survival rule for the weak here.

I silently patted Zhu Zhuo's shoulder and said, "Believe me, this life won't last long. You will be relieved soon."

Zhu Zhuo looked at me doubtfully, with a noncommittal look in his eyes. It was obvious that he didn't believe what I said. Human souls are also human beings, and human nature is like this. He has been in despair for too long, and even if hope does appear, he will not believe it.

, I would rather keep my ostrich spirit and continue to be numb.

Compared with living a life of pain and decadence, living a life full of hope is obviously a more difficult thing. Every day is full of hope, which is also a kind of training for the soul. Unfortunately, how many people understand it?

So, I didn’t explain anything, I just smiled at Zhu Zhuo and said, “Let’s go, let’s set off now.”

Perhaps our presence gave Zhu Zhuo a great sense of security, and he did not object. He took us out naturally. After following him out of the door, Zhu Zhuo was still mumbling: "Why am I like this?"

Have I followed you out? If you abandon me, who should I talk to? But I am still willing to take a gamble, and I still believe in you in my heart."

How rare is this kind of trust in this new city? Looking at the crazy people on the street, I think how precious this trust given by Zhu Zhuo is. At least in Zhu Zhuo, this city has not completely fallen into despair.

Walking on the street, we surrounded Zhu Zhuo and treated him with as much respect as possible, just to make his life easier in the next few days.

Zhu Zhuo also realized our behavior, and his eyes were full of gratitude.

In this way, we walked in silence for more than ten minutes. When we were about to walk out of this street, a distant, simple, and loud bell suddenly rang in the distance.

Zhu Zhuo suddenly became excited!
