Chapter 142 National Destiny: The Evil Cultivator’s Playground 30
The night was as dark as ink, and a red moon hung high in the sky, shrouding the entire Hongyue community in a weird atmosphere. The ghost landlord shuttled through every corner of the community, avoiding the ghosts who were looking for mice in the middle of the night.
The ghost old man's home is a dilapidated wooden house located on the edge of the community. It is sparsely populated and only some low-level ghosts live here. The ghost landlord knocked on the door gently, then pushed it open and entered.
The room was dark, with only a weak oil lamp flickering in the corner. The ghost old man was sitting at the table, holding a tattered book in his hand, and was absorbed in reading it. He heard the door open, looked up, and saw the ghost landlord standing at the door with a mysterious smile on his face.
"Hey, isn't this the landlord? How come you have time to come to my place?" the old man joked, his voice a little hoarse and old.
"I came to talk to you about something." The ghost landlord walked to the table and sat down, looking at the ghost old man with sharp eyes, "I want you to help me join the adults' organization."
"Sir?" The ghost old man was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "I haven't heard of it. Why? Is she related to you? Why do you want to join?"
"Of course it does!" The ghost landlord said mysteriously, "Not only did she give me powerful strength, she also gave me the opportunity to build my own power. Don't you think this is a great thing?"
"Oh?" The ghost old man became interested. "So, you really have become stronger?"
"Of course!" The ghost landlord patted his chest proudly, "My strength is now at least twice as strong as before! And I still have more powerful skills to practice!"
"So powerful?" The ghost old man widened his eyes, "Then why did you come to me?"
"That's right! I want to invite you to join my forces!" The ghost landlord said bluntly, "Let's work for the adults together and create an era that belongs to us together!"
"This..." The ghost old man hesitated, "After all, I am just an old man, how can I help you?"
"You are wrong!" The ghost landlord interrupted the old ghost, "Your wisdom and experience are what we need most. And I believe that as long as you are willing to work hard to practice the skills I teach you, your strength will definitely be greatly improved!"
"Really?" A glimmer of anticipation flashed in the old ghost's eyes, "Then I want to become stronger too! I want to serve you too!"
"Okay!" The ghost landlord slammed the table, "Then it's settled! From today on, you are a member of our faction!"
As the night deepened, the ghost landlord's eyes flickered with a fiery light, as if burning with desire for unknown power. He took a deep breath and dictated the formula of the Wedding Dress Magic Skill to the ghost old man in a calm but firm tone:
"The yin and yang of heaven and earth, the five elements of life and death, follow the meridians. The running route starts from the Baihui point, passes through the yintang, passes between the eyebrows, goes down along the bridge of the nose, reaches the philtrum, goes around the lips and mouth, passes through the Chengjiang, reaches the Adam's apple, enters the trachea, passes through the heart and lungs, goes down to the Dantian, and then from the Dantian it splits into two sides, along the inner thigh, passes through the knee fossa, reaches the sole of the foot, and finally rises from the sole of the foot to the Dantian, and then returns to the Baihui point along the original route."
The ghost old man listened attentively, and a solemn expression gradually appeared on his face. He closed his eyes and followed the formula taught by the ghost landlord, carefully feeling the flow of breath in his body.
At first, he felt a little awkward and difficult, but as time went on, he gradually could feel the air flow in his body, as if a warm current was running through his meridians.
After running a circle, the ghost old man felt that his body was much lighter, as if he had been reborn. He opened his eyes, and his eyes were shining with surprise. He looked at the ghost landlord, his tone full of respect and admiration:
"Landlord, this technique is truly magical! I feel as if I have become several dozen years younger, and the strength in my body has also increased a lot!"
Seeing this, the ghost landlord was secretly proud of himself. He knew that he had found the right person this time. He smiled and said, "Old man, this is just the entry method. As long as you are willing to work hard to practice, your future achievements will be limitless!"
The ghost old man nodded repeatedly, his face filled with excitement. He asked curiously: "Mr. Landlord, who is this Lady Chi Meng? Why did she give you such a powerful technique?"
The ghost landlord sighed, shook his head and said, "I know very little about the origins of Lady Chi Meng. I only know that she is an extremely powerful being, and her power is unfathomable. After she came to the Red Moon Community, she bestowed this magical power on me and the other four people. She said that as long as we work for her, she will lend us a helping hand and make us stronger."
Hearing this, the old man could not help but feel awe. He thought for a moment and asked again, "Mr. Landlord, is the pressure and strangeness you mentioned earlier related to Mr. Chi Meng?"
The ghost landlord nodded and said, "That's right. The pressure comes from Lady Chi Meng. The aura she exudes makes people feel awe and fear involuntarily. However, as long as we sincerely serve her, she will not do anything to us."
The ghost old man recalled his previous experience and shuddered in his heart. He secretly thanked himself for making the right choice, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. He calmed down and asked again: "Mr. Landlord, how did you get this skill? Are there any other conditions?"
The ghost landlord pondered for a moment and said, "This skill was naturally given to us directly by the lady. She did not put forward any other conditions, but only asked us to work for her. However, I think the reason why she chose the five of us is because we have good eyesight and surrendered at the first time. If you go too, you can get it."
“But it’s not too late for you to join now.”
The old man felt relieved when he heard this. He nodded and said, "I understand. I will do my best to serve you, sir!"
The ghost landlord nodded with satisfaction and said:
"Okay! Let's get started, but what should we do now?"
He scratched his head, feeling a little confused. His brain was not smooth and if he didn't have strong abilities, he really wouldn't be able to protect such a big family business.
The ghost old man pondered for a moment, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes. He raised his head slightly, looked at the ghost landlord, and said in a calm and firm voice: "I have an idea."
When the ghost landlord heard that there was an idea, he immediately became interested. He moved closer and asked curiously, "Oh? Do you have any good ideas?"
The old ghost took a deep breath and said slowly: "In order to better serve the adults, we first need to integrate all the forces in the Red Moon Community. At present, there are many ghosts in the Red Moon Community, but they fight each other and their strength is scattered. If we can unite them and practice together, then our strength will be greatly improved."
Hearing this, the ghost landlord frowned. He thought for a moment, then sighed and said, "You are right, but the ownership of Hongyue Community is in my hands. These ghosts are restricted in Hongyue Community by the rules. If I want to hand over the ownership, they will probably be dissatisfied and even resist."
The ghost old man smiled slightly and said, "You are worrying too much. Strength is respected here. The adults are so powerful that they won't mind. Besides, if you take the initiative to hand it over, the adults don't seem to like to meddle in other people's affairs. You may be able to continue to be the manager of the community and gain the adults' favor."
The ghost landlord was a little reluctant to hear this, but he made up his mind when he thought that if he could hold on to Chi Meng's thigh, his strength would be greatly improved. He nodded and said, "Okay! Let's do as you say! Let's do it now!"
As the night deepened, the ghost landlord left the ghost old man's wooden house with full confidence. His heart was full of desire and vision for the future.
"Boom boom boom!"
Chi Meng was practicing when he heard a knock on the door.
When he looked with his spiritual consciousness, he saw the ghost landlord standing at the door with a respectful smile on his face.
Why is he here? Chi Meng was a little confused but still opened the door.
The ghost landlord took a deep breath, and then said solemnly: "Sir, I came here today to offer you the ownership of the Red Moon Community."
Chi Meng was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at the ghost landlord with some doubt: "Ownership of Hongyue Community?"
The ghost landlord took a deep breath and then described his plan in detail: "Sir, I want to integrate all the ghosts in the Red Moon Community and work for you together. But to do this, I need your support and help. Therefore, I decided to hand over the ownership of the Red Moon Community to you to express my sincerity and determination."
After hearing this, Chi Meng's eyes flashed with appreciation. She nodded and said, "Okay."
The ghost landlord was overjoyed to see Chi Meng agreed. He quickly said, "Thank you for your support! I will get this done as soon as possible!"
Chi Meng smiled slightly, and then said: "But before that, I have one more thing to remind you. Although you have handed over the ownership of Hongyue Community to me, you still need to continue to serve as the manager of the community. You need to ensure the order and safety in the community, and also keep a close eye on those restless ghosts."
The ghost landlord nodded repeatedly to show that he understood.
