This Taoist Master is too Frivolous

Chapter 408: Chapter 284: Great-grandson, Grandpa is here!

“Ding!”

“A ghost is frightened, merit value +20.”

In Xu Yang’s mind, the system message sounded.

Xu Yang waved his hand and withdrew his Daoist skill, “Damn, I’m not going to eat you, why are you so afraid? Get lost!”

He arrived at the end of the street.

Behind a middle-aged man burning paper, he saw another ghost.

This ghost looked like a child, about six or seven years old. When it saw Xu Yang, it was not afraid and did not run away. Instead, it mischievously stuck out its tongue at Xu Yang and made a scary face.

“This little thing, it’s not afraid of me?”

Xu Yang reached out and grabbed the minor demon.

Only then did the little ghost become frightened. Its legs kicked wildly in the air as it yelled, “Hey, let go of me! I’ll count to three… or else I won’t be polite to you!”

Xu Yang held its head and chuckled, “Oh?”

“I’d like to see how you’re not going to be polite!”

The little ghost tried to break free, flailing its arms and legs.

Unfortunately, it was too short to reach Xu Yang, so it bared its teeth and threatened, “Let go, or when my boss gets here, we’ll beat the shit out of you!”

Xu Yang did not let go, but asked, “Don’t you know me?”

“You?”

The little ghost sneered, “Are you that great? Why should I know you, young master?”

Xu Yang tightened his grip.

“Ahhh!!!”

“It hurts, it hurts… I’m going to die!”

The child screamed and begged for mercy, “Spare me, big brother… I haven’t been back to the human world in hundreds of years. I just came up from the underworld. I didn’t recognize Mount Tai, please give me a break!”

Xu Yang’s heart stirred!

Indeed, it came from the Underworld Palace!

No wonder it didn’t recognize him…

If it were a ghost from the human world, even if they hadn’t seen him, as long as they had come to Wu City, they should have known who he was, not acting so arrogant and domineering.

“I can let go if you answer a few questions. If I’m satisfied, I’ll let you go.”

“Just ask me!”

The little ghost shouted, “Brother, ask quickly. I’ll definitely answer everything I know.”

Xu Yang: “Which part of the underworld did you come from?”

The little ghost said, “I am a person from the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty. I drowned when I fell off a boat during a spring outing. When I woke up, I was in the Underworld Palace. I was captured by a group of ghosts and taken to Mount Anlan, where I’ve lived all these years.”

Mount Anlan?

Xu Yang had only heard of Mount Luofu from Yue Niang. He hadn’t heard of Mount Anlan and asked, “Where is Mount Anlan?”

“My lord,”

The little ghost respectfully replied, “Mount Anlan is one of the nine Ghost Realms in the Black Forest. The Black Forest is located between Wrongful Death City and Fengdu City, covering more than 13,000 miles. It is a lawless territory of the Underworld Palace.”

Xu Yang asked, “The boss you mentioned earlier, is he the ruler of Mount Anlan?”

The little ghost bitterly smiled, “The master of our Mount Anlan was killed by the Twelve Heavenly Kings of the neighboring Blackstone Mountain. Even our mountain has been occupied… The boss I mentioned is our battalion commander. We escaped from the pursuit of Blackstone Mountain and happened to meet the opening of the Ghost Gate, so we came to the human world.”

Xu Yang let go and threw the little ghost to the side, “When your boss and companions arrive, take them to the Xi Xia Ghost Market. The Ghost Market there is powerful and helpful. I heard that if you go to a haunted house, you can get a lot of money rewards.”

The little ghost rubbed his head and disappeared into the darkness with a swoosh.

Meanwhile, Xu Yang’s expression became serious.

It seemed to be just as he had suspected.

This time, on Lunar July 15th, things were indeed different.

Ghosts from the underworld had entered the human world.

“It is now after 9 o’clock in the evening and not midnight yet. If it were midnight, I’m afraid more yin spirits and malevolent beings would enter the human world!”

Fortunately, the Supernatural Affairs Bureau had already issued a notice, asking people not to go out after midnight.

Moreover, most people now knew that the “ghosts and gods” were not superstition, so many people had placed offerings at their doors, which would make the ghosts leave and not harm people after receiving the offerings.

Xu Yang wandered around the streets and saw many ghosts.

Among them, some ghosts were extremely vicious and wanted to harm people when they had the chance. Xu Yang showed kindness and physically helped them to reincarnate on the spot.

When he returned to the funeral shop, it was already past 10 o’clock.

At this time, not many people were coming to the store to buy things.

Xu Yang called Ma Xiaotiao over and gave him a stack of Daoist talismans, instructing, “Our funeral shop deals with the dead, so it’s more likely to attract evil spirits than other places. Normally, the ghosts in our territory are afraid of our shop, but today is different.”

“On the 15th of July, the Ghost Gate opens, and some ghosts from the underworld may not know my name, Xu Yang. After I go to the Ghost Market, you will put talismans on the windows, doors, and walls to prevent yin spirits and evil beings from entering.”

Xu Yang took a bag of talismans from the storage space and gave it to Ma Xiaotiao, along with the bag.

“These talismans were drawn by my master. Put more on when you paste them later. Don’t spare them… Otherwise, if an evil yin spirit or ghost enters, it might hurt you and Yue Ya!”

Ma Xiaotiao nodded seriously, “Master, don’t worry, I will definitely protect elder sister Yue Ya!”

At this moment,

A BMW parked in front of the funeral shop.

Ma Long and his apprentice Wang Defa got out of the car.

Ma Long even brought some late-night snacks and chilled beer, laughing, “Old Xu… Here, have a drink. There’s still time before we go to the Ghost Market. Not many shops are open outside today. I specially called the owner of the club to prepare this for us.”
