Joining Tiandao Company: Starting by mending a zombie world

We arrived at the so-called warm pavilion.

As soon as I opened the door, a strong scent of sandalwood wafted out.

Chu Sheng frowned.

He disliked the strong fragrance, especially since it also carried a rotten smell.

The room was spacious and luxuriously furnished, complete with a carved king-size bed and rosewood tables and chairs.

It's fair to say that he's never lived in such a nice house in his entire life.

"Sasaki-kun, please rest first. It's time for the banquet, I'll come and invite you then."

Yu Dahai bowed and withdrew, gently closing the door behind him.

The moment the door closed.

Chu Sheng seemed to hear faint murmurs coming from the corridor outside, like countless people whispering at the same time.

Turning around, he opened the door a crack and saw through the gap that the bone bells moved automatically without wind, and the purple crystals lit up for a moment at the same time.

This royal palace is breathing.

The amethyst crystals on the seven black towers began to flicker rhythmically, like seven blinking evil eyes.

Chu Sheng slowly closed and locked the door, then took out "The Ghost Catcher's Notes".

Turn to the page that records the "Ghost Mother Soul Refining Array".

[Using vengeful spirits as a guide and the earth's veins as a network, the "Ghost Mother Soul Refining Array" can be set up.]

The souls trapped within cannot be reborn.

Chu Sheng's face grew increasingly gloomy.

That little bastard is a real piece of work.

He not only killed people, but also prevented them from being reincarnated!

Purification? Purification!

It seems he wasn't just talking; he really meant to do it.

Chu Sheng gritted his teeth and flipped through the notes containing the solution.

One advantage of "The Ghost Hunting Notes" is that while recording evil magic and spells, it also leaves behind methods to break them.

There are two methods:

First, it can directly flatten the formation, causing physical destruction without harming the formation's creators.

Chu Sheng scratched his head and muttered, "Master is good in every way, except that he is too compassionate."

"Others have already set up evil formations, why are you still thinking about the bad guys?"

He casually turned to a new page, then suddenly sat up straight, his face beaming with surprise.

"Take three ounces each of black dog blood, black dog heart, and black dog tail, along with a thunder talisman, and bury them at the head of the formation. When the thunder roars, activate the Five Thunder Spell."

"Only then can we cleave those who set up the formation into scorched earth!"

"This method is too ruthless; it must not be used."

Chu Sheng's eyes lit up—he had hidden some of the black dog's blood in his spatial storage when he obtained it that day.

When he came out, Mao Xiaofang, worried that something might have happened to him, gave him two newly drawn Five Thunder Talismans, his eyes narrowing slightly, revealing a ruthless glint:

"If I could find a black dog's heart and a black dog's tail... I'd also scam that little bastard."

……

Meanwhile, Yu Dahai limped back to Jiujing's office.

He boasted to Kujiri, "Colonel, I have already sent Sasaki-kun to the warm room."

Jiujing looked Yu Dahai up and down, noticing two clear handprints on his face, and said:

"Oh, my dear Yu Sang, are you hurt?"

Yu Dahai covered his face and shook his head, saying, "No, no, I was just 'taken care of' by Sasaki-kun."

Kujiro leaned closer, stroked Yu Dahai's face, and asked softly, "What do you think of Sasaki-kun?"

Yu Dahai blinked, his heart pounding with fear, and said:

"Sasaki-kun is very good, extremely good, he has the demeanor of a soldier of the Great Japanese Empire."

After speaking, he lowered his head and nervously stole glances at Jiujing.

"Don't you think it's strange that he came alone?" Jiujing asked.

"Just now in the car, didn't he say that the guerrillas were ambushed and only managed to escape after hiding for several days?" Yu Dahai replied.

"Really?" Jiujing stroked Yu Dahai's ear and grinned.

"Yu Sang's ears are big and full, she looks like a blessed person."

Yu Dahai trembled all over, and said in a tearful voice:

"No, no, my ears are just chubby..."

Kujiro chuckled and waved his hand.

"Go ahead and make good preparations. Madam may attend today's banquet."

Yu Dahai was taken aback—Jiujing's wife.

Although he had met her a few times, she always wore a veil and was very mysterious.

To be honest, he didn't even know what the other person looked like.

However, she will probably take off her veil during dinner tonight.

Nodding, bowing, and leaving Jiujing's office—this had almost become Yu Dahai's muscle memory.

Facing the door of Jiujing's room, he slowly straightened up, a complex look flashing in his eyes, and then turned and left.

Chu Sheng didn't actually stay in the warm pavilion for very long.

He lay in bed, silently reciting the "Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing" in his mind.

At the same time, he counted the days on his fingers—after today, there are two more days, less than forty-eight hours left.

He tried to communicate with the "company," but no one paid any attention to him.

As darkness fell, footsteps echoed down the corridor.

Yu Dahai arrived right on time, his face still swollen and red, but his smile was even more obsequious:

"Sasaki-kun, the banquet is ready."

"Colonel Kui specifically instructed that we introduce you to some 'distinguished guests' tonight."

Chu Sheng got up, casually said "Oh," and walked out of the room with an air of nonchalance, emphasizing relaxation.

What do you mean by "distinguished guest"?

Sooner or later, they will become names on the pillar of shame!

The banquet was held at the "Xiefangxuan" on the east side of the central courtyard.

As Yu Dahai led the way with a lantern, Chu Sheng caught a glimpse of the bone bells under the eaves as they passed through the corridor.

How many children must have been sacrificed for such a long corridor...

……

The Xiefang Pavilion was brightly lit.

The carved doors were wide open, and five or six people were already seated inside. The central seat was empty, clearly reserved for Jiujing.

As soon as Chu Sheng stepped in, several pairs of eyes shot towards him.

A man wearing round glasses and sporting a small mustache.

The little rascal, exactly like the stereotypical image in Chu Sheng's mind, adjusted his glasses, looked him up and down, and asked:

"who is he?"

Yu Dahai quickly stepped forward to introduce him: "This is Major Sasaki, he just came from the back."

He then introduced Chu Sheng: "This is the Japanese advisor, in charge of managing the puppet troops."

Chu Sheng nodded and looked at the others. Yu Dahai then introduced them one by one:

The middle-aged man on the left, dressed in a silk shirt and with a bloated belly, is the head of the county maintenance committee;

The person next to him is the vice president;

Several local gentry sat upright, creating a somber atmosphere.

Chu Sheng nodded slightly, his expression indifferent, and sat down in the guest seat indicated by Da Hai.

He glanced at the furnishings in the hall and let out a soft hum!

That single sound sent a shiver down the spines of everyone except the advisor.

"Sasaki-kun, are you finding it difficult to adjust to life in China? How is your hometown?"

Like the other little bastards, the consultant put on a facade of enthusiasm.

"Everything is fine," Chu Sheng replied, mimicking the expression of the little rascal.

He still doesn't fully understand why a mere lieutenant like himself would receive such a grand reception from Kujiro.

Is it simply because he came from the local area?

Just then, the sound of leather boots came from outside the door, and the door was suddenly pushed open.

Then, Jiujing, dressed in a well-fitting military uniform, strode in, leading a woman by the hand.

Everyone in the hall immediately stood up—except for Chu Sheng, who gave a military salute, everyone else, including the advisor, bowed to him.

"Haha, no need for formalities, please rise."

Jiujing raised his hand, signaling everyone to stand up.

He very gentlemanly pulled out a chair for the woman next to him, and only sat down himself after she was seated.

Immediately, he smiled at Chu Sheng and said:

"Sasaki-kun, let me introduce you—my wife, the younger sister of the Manchu Emperor, Aisin-Gioro Hui-ji!"
