I become a god in another world

Chapter 496: Water Ghost Appears
Chapter 496

As the cold wind blew, it immediately drowned out the ghostly cries and knocking sounds that were echoing throughout Qingzhengfang.

After the cold and gloomy weather, a sudden downpour of rain came.

'Clap clap--'

Dense, bean-sized raindrops hit the roof with such force that it almost seemed to blow the roof off.

The rain was so heavy that the woman's sad cries were almost inaudible.

The bloody rain quickly wiped out the scent of the human-skinned ghost walking in Qingzhengfang. The rain that had caused a bloody storm in all the counties and towns under the jurisdiction of Shangyang County and destroyed Wenxing County brought great comfort to the survivors in Ding'an Tower.

Almost at the moment when the heavy rain fell, Manager Liu, who was hiding under the counter, felt a huge sense of relief.

He crawled out from under the counter, feeling relieved that he had survived the catastrophe, and cried with joy:

"Master Zhu is here, Master Zhu is here——"

The human-skin ghost almost revived tonight, but the silver general Zhu Guangling of Shangyang County has not appeared. Manager Liu thought that Zhu Guangling might have been in trouble, and everyone in Ding'an Tower would surely die tonight.

But everyone has a way out. Zhao Fusheng and his gang broke into the closed building in the evening and actually stopped the evil spirit.

"Master Zhu, Master Zhu——"

Zhao Fusheng had many doubts in his heart.

She looked at Zhang Chuanshi's distraught appearance, recalled how he had chased the ghost porcelain before, and guessed the relationship between Zhang Chuanshi and the ghost porcelain man.

But before she could even ask the question, the ghost porcelain had already shattered.

The suppressed ghost rain started falling again. Judging from the reactions of Manager Liu and others, it seemed that the situation in Zhu Guangling had stabilized and the ghost disaster in Shangyang County had been brought under control.

She made up her mind.

Ding Datong looked at her timidly and called out to her tentatively:
"grown ups?"

Zhao Fusheng had a pale face before, with a door panel on his back, blood all around him, and a murderous aura. He looked like one of the ghost gate gods, without any breath of life.

Zhao Fusheng at that time left such a deep impression on Ding Datong that he still felt frightened when facing Zhao Fusheng again.

After he shouted, Zhao Fusheng immediately woke up.

Her eyes were no longer cold but calm, her pupils were shining, and her expression returned to its previous calmness.

"From what Manager Liu said, it seems that Zhu Guangling has arrived..." As soon as Zhao Fusheng opened his mouth, Ding Datong, Tao Lifang, Hu Rong, and Mr. Xie who joined them halfway all breathed a sigh of relief.

Mr. Xie loosened his clenched fists, and the corners of his mouth twitched several times before he finally adjusted his expression to a relaxed one. He rolled his eyes, blinked away the indifference in his eyes, and his expression became lively, and he squeezed into the crowd:

"Fusheng, you just scared me to death--"

Zhao Fusheng ignored him and said to Wu Shaochun:
"Shaochun, pull Manager Liu over here."

"it is good."

Wu Shaochun responded and strode to the side of Manager Liu.

Before he could reach out to grab the person, Manager Liu had already heard what Zhao Fusheng said, and he crawled to Zhao Fusheng's feet, kowtowing repeatedly:
"Sir, Liu Yequan is blind and did not recognize your identity. He neglected you all and deserves death. I am guilty of this."

Zhao Fusheng looked down at him and then shook his head:

"Let me make it clear first, the door is destroyed and the tables and chairs are gone, but this is caused by the ghost disaster in Shangyang County, and has nothing to do with me."

"Yes Yes Yes."

Liu Yequan had not recognized this group of ghost riders at first, and he relied on his status as a retainer of the King of Chu, so he was somewhat arrogant in his words and deeds.

After experiencing the human skin ghost disaster, he witnessed Zhao Fusheng and others using their methods to control ghosts. He knew that the group of people in front of him had extraordinary methods and must be the ghost controllers in the Demon Suppression Bureau.

So many ghost riders gathered together and showed great respect to Zhao Fusheng, which shows that Zhao Fusheng's status and position are extraordinary.

When he thought of his previous rude behavior, he was already sweating profusely, fearing that he would be killed.

When Zhao Fusheng mentioned the lost tables and chairs, he quickly replied:

"These are related to the ghost disaster, and have nothing to do with you, my Lord. If you hadn't been so magnanimous and rescued us, I'm afraid all of us in Ding'an Tower would have died tonight..."

When Manager Liu thought of the previous scene, he trembled all over and was filled with fear.

"Let me ask you, do ghost disasters like the previous one happen often?"

Zhao Fusheng asked.

"Often?" Liu Yequan was stunned for a moment, then shook his head desperately.

As if to prove what he said, he kept waving his hands:

"No, no, no, it's not likely to happen all the time. It's just, it's just an accident."

He knelt on the ground and said:

"To be honest, sir, our Qingzhengfang in Shangyang County is very safe, although - but no one has died from ghost disasters in these years -"

Liu Yequan's words were vague.

Zhao Fusheng had many more questions to ask, but just as she was about to open her mouth to ask more, the sound of rain outside became louder. The raindrops hit the roof as fast as arrows with such force that it seemed as if they were going to pierce through the roof.

Tiles were broken in many places, and rainwater dripped through the gaps in the roof beams, forming small puddles.

Wherever there was a puddle, footprints appeared strangely.

When Liu Yequan saw this scene, he was not afraid, but rather somewhat happy.

He looked up at the door.

The gate of Ding'an Tower had been damaged and could not be closed. The lanterns outside the building had been extinguished when the human-skin ghost attacked Ding'an Tower.

Manager Liu's expression changed slightly, and he immediately confessed to Zhao Fusheng:

"Sir, please wait until later if you have anything to say. I have to greet Master Zhu."

After he finished speaking, he waited anxiously for Zhao Fusheng's agreement.

"Is Zhu Guangling coming?" Zhao Fusheng asked.

When Shopkeeper Liu heard her calling out "Zhu Guangling" by name again, he did not get angry as before, but just nodded fearfully.

"Okay, you go do your business first. I want to see what kind of person this Shangyang County Silver General is."

As soon as Zhao Fusheng finished speaking, Manager Liu felt relieved.

After he got Zhao Fusheng's promise, he stood up and shouted anxiously:
"Hurry up, turn on the light--"

He pointed at the lantern under the eaves that had long been extinguished by the evil spirit of the ghost and shouted.

The waiters in Ding'an Building are also extraordinary.

Although they had just experienced a thrilling ghost disaster, as soon as the disaster was over, these people immediately put away their fears after hearing Manager Liu's instructions and started to do their own things with swift movements.

Everyone rushed to the back of the counter, opened the compartments, took out the lantern materials from the drawer, and quickly put them together to form a simple lantern. Others prepared the wicks and placed them in the lantern.

After the fire was lit, someone took out sticks and forks and hung the lanterns under the eaves outside Ding'an Tower.

Liu Yequan watched everyone closely. When he saw the lanterns were hung up, he breathed a sigh of relief and then looked inside the messy house.

A look of nervousness flashed across his eyes, and he waved his hands and shouted:
"Light the lamps in the house, too. Light the lamps in the house to provide illumination for Master Zhu."

As soon as he finished speaking, the others hurriedly lit the fire in the lobby again.

Shopkeeper Liu looked up again and said, "The door downstairs is open. It's not peaceful tonight. Mr. Zhu is coming soon. Please leave the upstairs." He shouted:

"Those who have rooms should go back to their rooms and close the doors tightly. No matter what noise you hear, do not come out and go to sleep. With Lord Zhu guarding Qingzhengfang, everything will be peaceful tonight."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Fusheng heard the sound of doors closing "bang bang bang" one after another.

Then many people went up to the bed with light footsteps. After a moment of rustling sounds, everything returned to calm.

After Liu Yequan finished shouting, an uneasy look appeared on his face.

He glanced at Zhao Fusheng and others and reminded them:
"My Lords, Lord Zhu will be here soon. His condition is special after the rain. Please remember to wipe the soles of your shoes dry and avoid getting water marks on your bodies." After saying that, he took the lead in taking off his wet shoes and threw them aside. After drying his legs, he found a clean place and knelt down.

The other guys followed suit and knelt down beside Liu Yequan.

Wu Shaochun, Liu Yizhen and others looked at each other.

But after all, they all came from Wenxing County, and they had some understanding of the law of water being the medium for evil spirits to kill people.

Zhao Fusheng and others took off their shoes one by one and stood aside.

However, everyone came out in the rain, and their clothes were wet. It was not easy for them to take them off in public - especially Mr. Xie, who had been walking in the rain for too long and his clothes were all wet. He had a bitter face and looked at a loss.

However, the old man from Qingzhengfang who led Zhao Fusheng and others to Ding'an Tower was bold enough.

He is a local and knows the local rules very well.

The moment Manager Liu knelt down, he quickly took off his clothes and shoes, and knelt beside the manager and the waiter of Ding'an Tower wearing only a pair of underwear.

"Hoo-hoo--" The night wind blew and eventually turned into a sobbing sound.

Amid the sound of the strong wind, a sudden rain came, and then all sounds began to become sluggish and slow, as if a strange force was influencing the raindrops to fall and the wind to blow across the roof.

In the extreme silence, Zhao Fusheng's hearing became sensitive.

'Clap. '

She heard the sound of someone walking through the water.

Zhao Fusheng was a very courageous person. On that day in the beggar's alley, she dared to go into the ghost realm alone, relying only on an unstable evil ghost that gave first and took later. At the critical moment, she dared to follow the beggar ghost to find its hiding place.

At this time, she heard footsteps in Qingzhengfang at night, and she also planned to go and see what kind of "person" was walking on the street at night.

As she thought about it, she actually moved.

Zhao Fusheng was not far from the door. He took two steps and looked out, but all he saw was an empty street.

"No one?!" Zhao Fusheng thought to himself.

But just as this thought came to her mind, she suddenly shuddered.

A chill started from her tailbone and quickly spread along the spine to her entire back.

Her hair stood on end as she caught a subtle sound in her mind, like the light footsteps of someone walking, or the crisp sound of water drops falling into the water.

The reminder of the List of Conferred Gods sounded: A calamity-level evil ghost appeared, should it be conferred as a god?

She felt a chill on her back and shrank back into Ding'an Tower.

"There's a ghost!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the others' expressions tensed.

Liu Yequan turned his head and immediately said anxiously:

"Don't get wet—"

Liu Yizhen and others looked at Zhao Fusheng.

Of course, everyone couldn't take off all their clothes like the old man leading the way in Qingzhengfang - after all, there were men, women, young and old in the group.

Even if we could take off our clothes, our hair would be wet from walking all the way. What should we do?

Just when he was in a dilemma, he saw ripples appearing from the puddle of water on the floor of Ding'an Building.

Black gas dissipated from the puddle, and a cold, pale face of a dead person emerged from the puddle at some point.

The moment the ghost face appeared in the puddle, Chen Duozi sensed something and turned his head involuntarily to look at the puddle, and then he saw the dead face hidden in the puddle.

She was startled.

As the dim water rippled, the bloodless face opened its eyes.

To Chen Duozi's surprise, the eyes of this dead face were not black, but silver-gray pupils, which was very strange.

When she was stunned for a moment, her hands and feet became cold.

Chen Duozi's face lost its color, became pale, and his pupils were filled with silver shadows.

A lot of turbid water began to flow out of her sleeves, skirt, and hair, and her whole body exuded a ghostly aura.

At the critical moment, there was a loud "puff" sound of fire, and a pale candlelight lit up.

The fire quickly dispelled the haze, and the light enveloped Zhao Fusheng and others.

The silver light in Chen Duozi's eyes was replaced by a dim yellow, and his pupils returned to dark brown.

There was still some fishy-smelling water on her body, which had already soaked her body thoroughly.

When she realized that she had almost gotten into trouble, she saw that Zhang Chuanshi had lit a small lantern the size of a palm at some point.

The leather of the lantern is delicate, just like a girl's cheek, smooth and white.

A lamp was lit inside the lantern, and black smoke slowly rose from it, reflecting on the white and delicate surface of the lantern, revealing twisted, painful faces that stared maliciously at the people outside the lantern.

Zhang Chuanshi lit the ghost lamp at the critical moment.

As the ghost lantern lit up, it enveloped the Demon Suppression Division's group in the light source.

Mr. Xie, who was soaked all over, tightened the black outer garment he was wearing, shrank his neck, and subconsciously leaned towards Zhao Fusheng and others.

Under the light, the messy footprints of the people from the Demon Suppression Division were smoothed out one by one, and the puddles of water, big and small, also disappeared strangely.

Outside the range of the light radiation, the power of the ghost lantern weakened, and the puddles of various sizes on the ground began to wriggle like living things, and arched and merged with each other to form a small pond with a diameter of about half a meter.

"..."

When everyone saw the pond appear, their expressions changed.

Liu Yequan was trembling all over, his head lowered, and he prostrated himself respectfully, not daring to make a sound.

Zhao Fusheng and others also shifted their gaze away from the ghost lantern in Zhang Chuanshi's hand and looked towards the pond.

Ripples spread out on the surface of the pond, as if countless raindrops were falling, and the water waves spread out in circles.

Suddenly, the bottom began to shake.

A layer of black gas rolled up, and a cold and pale face suddenly emerged from the bottom of the water.

The face with a wet head slowly rose from the water, under the head was a black ghost fog that could not be dissolved. Then, in full view of everyone, it transformed into the body of a fierce ghost.

As soon as the ghost appeared, countless densely packed and overlapping footprints appeared strangely in the lobby of Ding'an Building.

These footprints were flowing with water, and the evil ghost turned his head left and right, and his figure disappeared on the spot. When he reappeared, he appeared randomly on these footprints.

I won’t take a leave today, I’ll make up for it here.

Then I will take a break and adjust my state tomorrow (because I can’t finish writing it, I have to finish it tomorrow so that the update time the day after tomorrow will not be messed up).
