Meet the Gentleman

Chapter 164 Descendants of Ghost Merchants (Please recommend)
Qing Lang left after saying this.

In the courtyard, Zi Yaqin frowned tightly, and after a moment he looked up at the sky and bowed respectfully, saying, "Zi Yaqin begs all the ghost masters in Netherworld to help retrieve my wife's soul from the Netherworld. I will repay you in the future by working like an ox or a horse."

Zi Yaqin bowed for a long time, maintaining the posture of bowing.

"Zi Yaqin begs the ghost masters of the Netherworld to help retrieve my wife's soul from the Netherworld. Qin is willing to serve them as their oxen and horses."

After a long time without any response, Zi Yaqin spoke loudly again.

After an hour, there was still no response from the Ghost Lord of Youdu, and it seemed that he was unwilling to take action.

"Zi Yaqin begs all the ghost masters in Youdu..."

At this time, Zi Yaqin's face turned pale, her body began to tremble slightly, her knees gradually bent, and then she knelt down with a "thump".

What's wrong with kneeling down to retrieve the soul of my deceased wife?

Feng Qingyan, who was standing next to him, frowned and sighed, "Brother Ziya, please get up. I'm afraid they won't make a move."

"Zi Yaqin begs all the ghost masters..."

Zi Yaqin seemed not to hear anything and knelt respectfully and pleaded loudly.

The sound rolled and echoed in the sky.

Another hour passed, and Zi Yaqin had been begging for more than two hours, but still no ghost master was willing to help. However, Zi Yaqin refused to get up, and continued to beg loudly again and again, her body trembling constantly, and her face pale.

Feng Qingyan walked out of the yard with a gloomy face and stood aside looking at the sky.

in a blink.

Several hours passed.

The sky in Youdu has not changed and is still extremely dark, as if there is no night or day.

Feng Qingyan wanted to curse Youdu, but found that he was too lazy to do so.

Youdu is a place where ghosts live. There are ghosts everywhere. How can it talk to you about benevolence, morality, loyalty, filial piety, and trust?
"Zi Yaqin begs all the ghost masters in Youdu..."

Zi Yaqin's voice rang out again and again. She still hasn't given up, and she can't, and she dares not to give up.

This is his only hope.

He was willing to use his sincerity to impress the ghost lords in Youdu.

But Feng Qingyan knew clearly that it was useless to be sincere in Youdu, unless he could produce a treasure that would attract the ghost lord.

Although Zi Yaqin said that she would be his slave, the Ghost Master did not really need it.

Besides, Zi Yaqin is a living person, not a ghost.

If he becomes a ghost in the future, he may just be a stronger ghost. It doesn't mean that if he was powerful in life, he will definitely be powerful as a ghost after death...

It is even possible that not even the soul is left.

If Zi Yaqin were a ghost, there might be a ghost master who would be moved and willing to help Zi Yaqin once.

But he is not.

When a person dies, he or she becomes a ghost and everything has to start from the beginning.

"Feng Qingyan begs all the ghost masters to help Brother Ziya once. I will definitely reward you handsomely one day." Feng Qingyan saluted.

"How can I thank you?"

A cold voice suddenly sounded.

Feng Qingyan was stunned for a moment, but Zi Yaqin was extremely surprised and said, "Brother Feng..."

"Now, as long as I, Feng Qingyan, can do it, I can also look for treasures after I become a great scholar, or..."

Feng Qingyan Road.

However, he was interrupted before he could finish his words.

"You can do it now." The cold voice said, "You don't have to wait until you become a great scholar. Besides, you may not be able to become a great scholar, so don't think too highly of yourself."

"Can I do it now?"

Feng Qingyan was a little surprised. He didn't have any treasures on him, unless the ghost gate counted. He said, "Please tell me."

"I want you to thank me with your life," said the voice.

Feng Qingyan was stunned for a moment, then he looked up at the sky and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "My life?"

"Yes, it's your life!" the cold voice said, "Aren't you a Confucian disciple? Or a disciple of the famous An Rushan? You must be familiar with Confucian classics and have a deep understanding of Confucian benevolence and righteousness. Doesn't Confucianism emphasize sacrificing one's life for the sake of righteousness? Then are you willing to exchange your life for the soul of your friend's wife?"

"You can do it easily."

Feng Qingyan frowned and said, "Why do you have to take my life before you agree to take action? Is it just for fun?"

"Are you willing?" The cold voice laughed, full of sarcasm.

"A man of noble character and integrity will not seek to live at the expense of his integrity, but will rather sacrifice his life to achieve integrity." Feng Qingyan said coldly, "You are only trying to satisfy your own desires, forcing people to exchange their lives for one another. This is like treating one person and killing another. How can you be a doctor? Saving one person and killing another, how can you be qualified to talk to me about morality and ethics?"

"No need to say anything else. Are you willing or not?"

The voice said coldly, especially the words "willing" and "unwilling", which echoed in the sky, forcing people to make a choice.

"If you can really find Bai You's soul, hand it over to Brother Zi Ya in good condition, and let Brother Zi Ya take his wife's soul and leave the country of Ba safely, I..."

Feng Qingyan sighed and said, "I wish..."

"Really?"

The cold voice sounded a little surprised, as if it couldn't believe it.

"You evil ghosts, how can you know what it means to kill yourself for a cause and sacrifice your life for justice?" Feng Qingyan couldn't help but laugh. Although it was a bit stupid to do so, killing yourself for a cause and sacrificing your life for justice were stupid things in the eyes of countless people.

"Brother Feng, you can't do that!"

Zi Yaqin was deeply moved and quickly stopped him.

"When you find Bai You's soul, and Brother Zi Ya confirms that it is correct, and you leave Ba Shu safely, I will thank you with my life."

Feng Qingyan bowed.

"Ha ha--"

The voice was laughing.

"No!"

At this moment, Zi Yaqin suddenly stood up, pointed at the sky and cursed: "You can obviously go back with him, why do you need my brother Feng's order? If so, I, Zi Yaqin, would rather not come to Youdu, would rather not ask you..."

"Brother Feng, let's go!"

Zi Yaqin walked out of the yard angrily, pulling Feng Qingyan's sleeve and trying to leave.

"Haha, don't be angry, Brother Ziya. This is just a joke from the Ghost Lord. How could he take your life?" At this time, Qing Lang came over with a big laugh, and then said to Feng Qingyan, "A gentleman is willing to sacrifice his life for justice. Qing Lang is not as good as him. This is really admirable."

"Brother Qinglang, what does this mean?"

Feng Qingyan said with a gloomy face.

"Please don't blame me, it's not that the Ghost Lord is unwilling to take action, but that he is unable to do so." Qing Lang shook his head.

"Why can't you do it?"

Feng Qingyan asked.

"I just learned that something has happened in the Netherworld. Even if a ghost master enters, there are huge risks. If he is not careful, he will die." Qing Lang shook his head, looked at the two of them and said, "This is why no ghost master is willing to take action. I hope Brother Zi Ya can understand."

"What happened in the Netherworld?"

Zi Yaqin asked anxiously.

"I don't know either. I only know that even if the Ghost Lord enters, there will be great danger." Qing Lang shook his head and said, "Maybe he will recover after a few days."

"This this……"

Zi Yaqin was extremely anxious, and was extremely worried that something had happened to his deceased wife's soul. He asked, "What should I do? What should I do?"

"In fact, there is someone more suitable than the Ghost Master." Qing Lang pondered for a moment and said, "Besides, you can ignore the current crisis and walk through the underworld easily."

"who?"

Zi Yaqin was overjoyed and asked quickly.

"Descendants of ghost merchants."

Qinglang Road.

"Descendant of a ghost merchant?"

Zi Yaqin was stunned for a moment.

"Yes, they are the descendants of ghost merchants. The descendants of ghost merchants can enter the netherworld at will and are not affected by the evil ghosts of the netherworld. Searching for souls in the netherworld is just like walking at home."

Qing Lang smiled.

"But where can we find the descendants of the ghost merchants?"

At this time, Zi Yaqin frowned and said, "Besides, the Ghost Merchants have been destroyed for so long, where are the descendants of the Ghost Merchants?"
