After the ghost general's soul was scattered, the remaining ghost soldiers immediately dispersed into birds and beasts, turning into black smoke and fleeing around the courtyard.
The dark wind swirled the paper money and ashes, and the air was still filled with the burnt smell of thunder and the stench of a collapsed soul.
Chen Jin stood where he was and did not pursue him.
He looked down at the few thunder talismans left between his fingers and frowned slightly.
These talismans are consumables obtained in exchange for Yanfu Points.
Just now, in order to achieve a quick victory, I didn't think much about it when I smashed it.
At this moment, watching the ghost soldiers flee in all directions, the calculation in my heart immediately started.
Using Awakening of Insects Dragon Thunder Talisman to hunt down these miscellaneous soldiers is like using a golden slingshot to shoot sparrows, it is really a loss.
"Forget it, let them be."
He whispered to himself, preparing to take back the remaining thunder symbols.
"Oh! Great Immortal! I can't do it, I can't do it!"
On the coffin board, the old ghost was so anxious that his shadow was shaking around and his voice was shrill.
"Cut the grass without eradicating the root, but the spring breeze will blow it and it will grow again!"
If you kill Prince Qiu Manor's ghost generals, will they be willing to rest?
You are so powerful that you are naturally not afraid,
But, every one of the living people here today must be angered and die without a burial place!"
"What's going on?"
Chen Jin's tone was calm and there was no trace of any disturbance.
With one sentence, the entire courtyard fell into deathly silence.
The living people forgot to cry, the old ghost opened his mouth, and even the fleeing ghost soldiers seemed to be stuck for a moment.
Chen Jin seemed not to notice this strange silence and continued slowly:
"Oh, by the way, the thunder talisman I used just now costs one tael of gold per piece.
According to the current market here, I'll discount it by ten taels of silver."
He glanced at everyone present and announced the numbers.
"I used more than 20 pieces just now, so I'll give you two thousand taels of silver.
Pay for it."
The conscience of heaven and earth, Chen Jin really did not blackmail them.
There is an upper limit for the exchange of silver for Yanfu Points. The maximum exchange rate for each Fruit for Yanfu Points is 10,000 points.
However, there is no upper limit for the exchange of gold for Yanfu Points. One tael of gold can be exchanged for 20 points of Yanfu Points.
He just secretly asked Ren Tu that the current gold-to-silver ratio of Fruit is one to ten.
The cost of a thunder talisman is 20 points. According to the official price of one tael of gold to 20 points and gold to silver of 1:10, a thunder talisman costs 10 taels of silver, which is really a reasonable price.
However, to the horrified villagers who had just saved their lives from the gate of hell, these words were like a bolt from the blue.
They looked at Chen Jin's calm face, and then recalled his ruthless method of killing ghosts with thunder symbols while talking and laughing just now, and they felt a chill coming straight from the soles of their feet to the Tianling Gai.
This one is probably even more frightening than the ghost general just now.
A few wisps of remnant souls and black smoke rushed back to the gloomy Prince Qiu Manor mansion in embarrassment.
The ghost soldiers led by them could not even maintain their physical form.
He threw himself down on the black stone ground as cold as iron, and with a trembling voice reported the news that the ghost was about to fly away.
Prince Qiu sitting on a throne made of bones,
The black and red evil energy around him suddenly surged, the temperature of the entire mansion dropped sharply, and frost condensed on the walls.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa--!"
He let out a series of ear-piercing roars that shook the dust from the beams.
"Dare to make trouble on Tai Sui!
What kind of blind bully is getting tired of living!"
In anger, he thrust out his huge palm,
The ghost soldier who reported the report didn't even have time to beg for mercy before he was grabbed by an irresistible suction force.
He was instantly pulled into the bottomless black mouth of Prince Qiu.
The teeth-grinding sound of chewing and the brief shrill wail echoed in the hall,
After a moment, Prince Qiu let out a bloody burp,
The last memory of the ghost soldier before his death flashed through his scarlet eyes.
A young man with an indifferent expression waved his hand with lightning, annihilating his beloved general along with Hundred Ghosts Soul-Devouring Banner.
"Trash!"
He roared, his heart filled with provoked rage,
"Gather the troops!
Order all the Yin soldiers and ghost cavalry, and I will personally go and meet this guy who doesn't know whether to live or die!"
He stood up suddenly, and a huge shadow almost enveloped half of the mansion.
"In the entire Qiantang County, even the shrunken turtle City God dared not take a breath. Where did the wild Daoist dare to pull out my king's tiger beard!"
In the dilapidated village courtyard, the atmosphere was as depressing as on the eve of a rainstorm.
The surviving villagers looked ashen as death,
Some were slumped on the ground, or some were supporting each other and sobbing softly,
The joy of surviving the disaster has long been crushed by the astronomical figure of two thousand taels of silver.
Some people subconsciously touched their empty wallets with desperate eyes.
The old ghost on the coffin shrank back into the depths of the coffin as soon as Chen Jin glanced over.
He didn't dare to let out even a trace of his yin energy and completely pretended to be dead.
Chen Jin had a panoramic view of everyone's reactions, and felt like a mirror.
He took two steps, and the soles of his shoes stepped on the charred and broken bluestone, making a slight "rustling" sound. This sound was particularly clear in the dead courtyard.
"Since there is no cash,"
He spoke, his voice was not loud, but it made everyone's hearts lift.
"Then let's find another way. Work for me to pay off the debt."
He glanced at these village men and women with disheveled faces and ragged clothes.
The Yanfu Event released by Ren Tu requires that you earn ten million taels of silver from this Fruit.
With this number, working alone is too inefficient.
He needs people, even these villagers who seem to have nothing.
Thoughts were flying, and a preliminary blueprint for making money had been outlined in his mind.
"I won't let you do anything you can't do.
But my rules are true to the word.
If you want, stay.
If you don't want to..." He paused and said, "Ask for yourself."
The villagers looked at each other. Finally, Zhao Silang gritted his teeth and was the first to kneel down:
"The immortal master's life-saving grace cannot be repaid!
I, Zhao Silang, got this life from you, and I am willing to work as a horse for you!"
Someone took the lead, and others seemed to have found a backbone.
They all knelt down and expressed their willingness to obey orders.
Chen Jin's eyes swept over the frightened and numb faces, and finally landed on the fruit plate used as a memorial to the side, where there were a few withered rice grains.
He strolled over and picked up one while the villagers stared at him in confusion.
"You don't have money."
He held the inconspicuous grain of grain on his fingertips and spoke in a calm voice,
"But there is still strength and this land."
Before he finished speaking, a warm green light suddenly appeared between his fingers. The green light was like a living thing, instantly wrapping around the shriveled grain seeds.
[Bountiful Harvest]
Effect: Condensing the life essence inherited by Shennong, greatly stimulating the original vitality of plants. The user can inject the life essence into seeds or plants through contact, allowing them to complete the growth cycle that takes months or even years in the natural state in a very short time, and can break through the limits of ordinary items.
A miracle happened.
The grain of grain expanded and cracked at a speed visible to the naked eye, and a green sprout stuck its head out stubbornly, and then grew wildly!
The roots hang down like silk threads, and the stems are lifted up jointly.
The leaves unfolded, and within a few breaths, a green and vigorous grass seedling stood tall and graceful in his palm, exuding a fresh plant scent.
"!!!"
All the villagers' eyes widened, their mouths opened wide, and they made unconscious gasping sounds.
Li Laoshuan leaned forward suddenly, his muddy old eyes staring at the bright green plant that should not exist in this season.
