I become a god in another world

Chapter 420: Ghost's Favor
Chapter 420
The ghost rider controls ghosts by making himself the host of the evil ghost in a special way. Only by being in harmony with the ghost in some way can he borrow the ghost's power.

The ghost seems to be hiding in the shadow of the ghost rider, becoming one with the ghost rider and coexisting with him.

This situation is similar to the law of concealing ghosts, hiding oneself, so the ghost at this time "excludes" the ghost rider from its own killing law, and the more the ghost's power is used, the more the ghost will backfire, and it is a process of gradually merging with the ghost - it can also be said to be killed by the ghost, or the evil ghost reviving.

When everyone heard Zhang Chuanshi's reminder, they were all surprised.

Wu Shaochun has already controlled the evil ghost. Although he is still not clear about the reason why he controls the ghost, he feels that it is not a good thing if his existence is sensed by the ghost.

He was a little nervous and subconsciously looked at Zhao Fusheng.

Ding Datong is more aware of the seriousness of the matter.

He was a general in Changping County. He had been in the Demon Suppression Division of the Han Dynasty and had been controlling ghosts for many years. He had rich experience. He had a clearer understanding of ghosts than Zhao Fusheng, so he immediately reminded him:

"Sir, we can't be discovered by ghosts--"

Everyone looked solemn and nodded.

Zhao Fusheng smiled, and remembered the reminder in the List of Gods when he deified the Headless Ghost Messenger: The Ghost Messenger Horse-Faced was a servant in his lifetime, and he hated evil by nature, and he frightened evil spirits after his death.

The temperament of the Horse-Faced Ghost when alive affects the rules it follows after it is resurrected.

It has a favorable opinion of Merit.

If it were the Zhao Fusheng from earlier, he would not have dared to take the risk.

But after experiencing the ghost cases in Dongping Village, Huangma Town and Hejia Village, Zhao Fusheng now has a total of 155552 merit points in her hands. She wants to try whether this merit point can be exchanged for the favor of the evil ghost!
The idea of ​​expecting to gain the closeness of a ghost is like a fantasy.

If it were anyone else, they probably wouldn't even dare to think about it, but Zhao Fusheng had the Investiture of the Gods to rely on, so he could give it a try.

Thinking of this, Zhao Fusheng didn't say anything, but just raised his hand and gently lifted the lid of the box containing ghost lamp oil with his fingertips.

The lid fell to the ground with a slight sound.

'laugh. '

A faint, almost inaudible sound of fireworks was heard, followed by thick black smoke rising slowly into the sky, and in mid-air it turned into a distorted face of pain.

——This was the last breath of resentment of the human being that Paper Man Zhang sealed inside the lantern when he was refining the ghost lantern.

Before the resentment could take shape, it was immediately diluted by the ghost's more powerful evil aura.

An unpleasant stench spread and pale lights came on.

The group of ghosts frightened by the Yinchai seemed to sense the appearance of the lights, and the black fog around them became thicker.

The ghost with a horse's head and a human body moved.

The moment the ghost lights came on, everyone was filled with fear and subconsciously turned their backs.

Wherever the ghost lantern shines, it will attract the "attention" of ghosts.

The shock of the calamity-level evil ghost reached its peak, and Ding Datong instinctively wanted to summon the power of the evil ghost to protect his body in fear.

But the evil spirit that usually hid in the shadows and brought him fear day and night was now dead silent - under the pressure of the calamity-level evil spirit, the disaster-level evil spirit he controlled lost its response.

There is a big ghost in front of you and a group of ghosts around you.

When Ding Datong thought that something was bound to happen tonight, Zhao Fusheng did not dodge or evade, and his face was reflected in the light of the ghost lantern.

The reminder from the List of Gods sounded in her mind: The ghost has seen you.

You hold the List of Gods, save all people, are involved in cause and effect, and have merits and virtues.

In life, it was a law enforcement officer, obeying the orders of the law;

After death, it frightens all ghosts and is willing to lie dormant in the presence of people with great merit.

The people are grateful to you and you are a person of great merit. The ghost horse has a good impression of you, regards you as a confidant, and is willing to serve you.

Remind the host not to be deceived by ghosts.

Please use the power of the ghost messenger with caution.

Note: When you gain the favor of the ghost messenger and borrow its power, merit points will no longer be consumed.

Note: Be careful to maintain your merit points. When your merit points are insufficient, the ghost may take your life first.

……

When Zhao Fusheng heard the reminder from the Investiture of the Gods that he had indeed gained the favor of Yin Cha and that the next time he summoned him, he would no longer consume merit points, he couldn't help but feel happy.

But then she heard the warning from the List of Gods again: when the merit points are insufficient, even the ghost messengers who have been deified may be in danger of losing control.

Zhao Fusheng's heart trembled.

All this happened in a flash, and no one was aware of the changes in Zhao Fusheng's heart.

The moment the ghost lantern lit up, the evil aura of the ghost messenger Horse-Faced Ghost enveloped the surroundings, and Zhao Fusheng's existence was included in the evil ghost's "perception".

But the bloody scene that everyone imagined did not happen.

The evil spirit 'picked up' the lantern and then unfolded its own laws.

It hates evil and uses its own perception to start looking for the source of the evil energy in this place.

The ghost walked away with a lantern.

All the ghosts that were frightened by it were suppressed, but they were also inspired by the ghost lantern and followed the ghost catcher.

The ghost with a horse face and a human body walked in front holding a ghost lantern, and the group of ghosts followed behind him stiffly and silently.

The group of ghosts formed a strange, silent and terrifying black wave, slowly moving away from the crowd.

"..."

The mortal danger was immediately resolved, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief in silence.

Zhang Chuanshi did not die for a long time, and his eyelids twitched as he opened his eyes.

"I, I'm not dead--" he said in a trembling voice, still a little unbelieving.

"It's not that easy to die." Zhao Fusheng said with a teasing tone, "The scourge will last for thousands of years."

It was clearly an insult, but to Zhang Chuanshi it sounded like a blessing. He couldn't help but grin:
"Then I accept your words, sir."

Everyone was lucky to have survived:

"I didn't expect he didn't die."

"Your Excellency is truly amazing."

Everyone complimented me one after another.

After the excitement, everyone turned to look at the ghost catcher, only to see it walking in front with a lamp in hand, and a group of ghosts following behind, forming a special suppression.

After the initial joy, everyone fell into a new predicament:
"My Lord, where is it going?"

No one is clear about the rules of the ghost catcher, including Liu Yizhen, whose two generations are responsible for guarding the ghost catcher and who has been with the ghost catcher for many years. He is also not clear about the rules of the ghost catcher.

He only knew that the Ghost Messenger was intimidating to ghosts. Usually, evil ghosts would be suppressed by the Ghost Messenger and forced into a sleeping state.

"It is looking for the source of this place's evil."

Zhao Fusheng explained.

With the help of the List of Gods, she is very familiar with the rules of ghost messengers.

Generally, ghosts will not attract the attention of the ghost catcher. When the ghost catcher walks out of the List of Gods, a ghost domain with it as the main body will be formed at the place where it is, and it will automatically eliminate the most evil ghost in its ghost domain.

While he was talking, the ghost had already walked several feet away.

With the help of the ghost lantern in its hand, everyone could finally see the scene several feet away. In front of the ghost, there were sharp fences made of several wooden pillars, and two dilapidated gates appeared in front of everyone.

The gate is about two or three meters high, with a sign hanging on the top that reads: Wenxing County.

“I have arrived at Wenxing County without even realizing it.”

Liu Yizhen sighed.

We hadn't seen any survivors along the way, and now that Wenxing County had become a ghost town, most of the people in the county were probably in grave danger.

"Sir, what should we do now?"

While Fan Bisi was asking questions, the ghost with a lantern had already passed through the wooden fence and entered the city.

The group of ghosts followed through the door.

The bodies of evil spirits are somewhere between visible and invisible. When they kill people, their bodies will solidify into real, powerful bodies. When people want to fight back and hurt the evil spirits, the ghosts will turn into invisible shadows, which pass through fences and gates in turn.

These human objects cannot harm evil spirits, and the passing of ghosts has no effect on these instruments.

However, under the influence of the evil energy, the city gate became obviously more dilapidated and decayed.

The already dilapidated paint seemed to have become even darker, as if the vitality had been taken away by the evil spirit, making "Wenxing County" more like a dead city.

"Let's go into the city too." Zhao Fusheng made a prompt decision.

"Follow the Horse-Faced Guard?" Liu Yizhen asked as he carried the coffin on his back.

"Do not."

Zhao Fusheng shook his head:
"After we enter the city, we will go to the Demon Suppression Division first, and then search the city for any survivors."

"Enter the Demon Suppression Bureau?" Liu Yizhen asked in surprise.

"Go, go into the Demon Suppression Bureau?!" Zhang Chuanshi also spoke up. He then thought of something, his eyes flickered, and he put his hands into his sleeves.

"Yes." Zhao Fusheng responded.

Ding Datong was puzzled:
"Sir, don't we have to follow this, this Horse-Faced God?" Whenever he mentioned the Horse-Faced God, he was so cautious that he showed a hint of guilt, fearing that the offensive tone would lead to the big ghost's "blame" - this was an instinctive reaction brought about by his several years of official career.

"No need to follow it." Zhao Fusheng waved his hand.

"Won't the ghost get out of control?" This was the first time Tao Lifang had seen such a way of 'controlling ghosts' and he couldn't help but ask.

"What does out of control mean?" Zhao Fusheng asked with a smile.

"When a ghost gets out of control, that means—" Tao Lifang was speechless after her question.

Zhao Fusheng smiled and followed him into the city.

This area of ​​the city gate, which had originally become a deadly place due to the resurrection of a large number of ghosts, has now been completely "cleaned" by the ghost officials and has become extremely safe.

She walked in front, and after being stunned for a moment, everyone from the Demon Suppression Division followed closely behind.

"Ghosts will never get out of control." Zhao Fusheng said as he walked.

Her words fell into the ears of others, overturning Ding Datong's previous cognition and leaving the ghost riders stunned.

Wu Shaochun kept Zhao Fusheng's words firmly in his mind.

"Ghosts have no thoughts, and are not controlled by emotions. They exist only to follow the rules."

In the past, ghost handlers’ understanding of ghosts was influenced by fear and was not objective. “What you think of as evil spirits reviving and losing control is because the ghosts revive and then kill people.”

"Isn't it?" Jiang Ying asked blankly.

Wu Shaochun seemed to be thinking:
"No, your Excellency means that ghosts are just following the laws of instinct."

"What do you mean--" Zhong Yao was also confused and asked back subconsciously.

"Rule one, killing is just a side effect of the ghost fulfilling the law." Wu Shaochun explained.

Zhao Fusheng nodded:
"Shaochun is right."

The crisis was temporarily resolved. Seeing that everyone was curious about this matter again, she simply explained:

"Take my ghost messenger as an example. Its law is to eliminate negative sources such as malice, killing, evil spirits, etc. -" She paused for a moment when she said this.

A scene suddenly flashed through Zhao Fusheng's memory like a kaleidoscope.

In the Shilipo Ghost Case, she led Qiao Yuesheng back to the Liu Clan Ancestral Hall forty years ago. The moment the ghost came back to life, she went straight to Zhang Xiongwu.

She didn't understand the meaning at the time and just kept this detail in mind. Now when she recalled this scene again, she couldn't help but think about it.

Zhao Fusheng's thoughts only stayed on this memory for a moment, and she continued as if nothing had happened:

"Most of these beings are revived evil spirits. The higher the level of the ghost, the stronger the evil spirit will be. It will affect everything around it and form a ghost domain."

Ding Datong and others suddenly realized.

Everyone used to know that when evil ghosts resurrected, a ghost domain would be formed, and ghosts would appear in the ghost domain to start killing, but few people thought about the reasons for the appearance of the ghost domain. Hearing such words at this time, one could not help but feel as if a world of enlightenment had been opened.

"The ghost messenger will form a larger ghost domain. Once it is revived, the first thing it will do is to find the source of the evil thoughts in its own ghost domain."

When Zhao Fusheng said this, everyone had already vaguely understood what she meant.

"There are many revived evil spirits in Wenxing County, but when we did not enter this place, the laws of the ghost group were not activated. This proves that there are other evil spirits in the county, whose ranks are higher than the ghost group, and they have frightened the revived evil spirits."

When the ghost messenger appears in the world, he will first solve the source of the ghost disaster.

After it solves the source of the ghost disaster, the law will not stop, but will continue to look for the source of the disaster one by one.

"There are many evil spirits here."

Every revived evil ghost represents evil thoughts, which is enough to keep the ghost catcher busy for a while.

"Before all the sources of evil spirits are eliminated, it will not kill anyone. Even if someone's evil thoughts are stronger than those of the evil ghosts, they may be killed by the ghost by mistake—"

Zhao Fusheng said coldly:

"Such a person is worse than a ghost. So what if he was killed by mistake?"

After she finished speaking, everyone was silent for a long time.

Everyone's fear of ghosts has long been ingrained in their bones, and they have never thought that the laws of evil spirits can be applied to treat ghosts in this way.

Ding Datong murmured:

"Could this be the reason why I can only sit in the position of general and cannot advance further--"

"Golden General——"

When he first learned that Zhao Fusheng wanted to be promoted to General Jin, he thought it was a wild idea.

Later, when he saw Zhao Fusheng's skills and knew that she possessed the absolute strength of a Jin general, he had actually accepted her identity in his heart - although she had not yet truly received the imperial pardon, in Ding Datong's heart, she was no different from a Jin general.

But after hearing what she said, Ding Datong's thoughts became different from before.

Perhaps a true Gold General not only possesses extraordinary strength, but also has cognition that is ahead of that of ordinary ghost riders.

They not only control ghosts, but they truly understand ghosts and use their power to the fullest - this is the true golden general level.

"We will handle our own affairs. It won't be too late to look for the ghost messenger after we finish our work."

With Kuai Manzhou and the List of Gods, finding the ghost messenger is not a difficult task.

While they were talking, they had already arrived at the city gate.

At this time, Wenxing County was still shrouded in the ghost domain, where one could not see one's hand in front of one's face, but there were no ghosts around.

When Zhao Fusheng passed by the city gate, he did not enter the city directly. Instead, he activated the List of Gods and summoned the Ghost and God Order. At the cost of consuming 1000 merit points, he placed a ghost seal on the dilapidated city gate.
