Chapter 404 14. Ancient Ghost Suppression Division

As the ghost continued to cut with the long knife, the thick mud on the skinny living man's body flew everywhere. Every time the knife cut across his body, a long strip of flesh appeared.

There is plenty of light all around.

Let everyone see clearly.

The color of the skin and flesh was not the yellow and white color of ordinary people, but black, gray and bluish, completely different from humans.

"What the hell is he?"

Zhang Ergou asked in a low voice with fear on his face.

Whose skin is black, gray and bluish? Even if this skinny living man is an immortal who has lived for hundreds of years, and his whole body is rotten and only his body is left, it is impossible for him to become like this ghost.

I'm afraid only monsters can grow black and gray skin. They are not just ordinary monsters, but old monsters that hide in the mountains and forests and have lived for who knows how many years.

"Master Immortal, something is wrong. This thing is probably a clay figurine. You ghost masters are helping it shed its outer shell."

Ji Dao also reminded him loudly.

The skinny living person was originally very strange. His whole body was covered with black mud, from his chest and abdomen to his ancient clothes. Such thick dirt was really rare.

It is difficult to form naturally.

It’s not like I haven’t seen coffins that are hundreds of years old. There are hundreds of them in the ancient city of Nanze, and they are very old, but I have never seen any corpses with thick dirt on their bodies.

Not even immortality.

The method of immortality has always been based on turtle breath. Immortal people will not sweat, so how can there be so much dirt on their bodies.

Now seeing the ghost master's actions, I got the answer from another direction. Maybe the mud skin is not the so-called dirt at all, but a kind of clay figurine that seals something.

This time it is really similar to the ghost figurines.

Combined with the long history of the lock box, I am afraid that the skinny living person has been sealed for many years, and the method of sealing people with clay figurines is either a method of gods and ghosts, or a method of immortality.

"The key is why did Mr. Gui help him?"

Zhang Ergou heard this and asked immediately.

"I don't know. I have never heard of this method of making clay figurines. Just looking at the skin and flesh of the person in the figurine, maybe this person has some connection with Master Gui. Did Master Gui recognize this person's identity?"

"The green flesh looks like a tattoo. The Ghost Suppression Division has a habit of tattooing, and this tattoo method also has a long history."

"The Ghost Suppression Department is called Zhengui. He has dealt with ghosts all his life. Legend has it that the first candidates will go to a secret place and soak up the ghost energy in the same pool with countless ghosts."

"Only those who walk out of the pool alive can become ghost suppressors, and then get tattoos on their bodies to distinguish ghost suppressors from mortals. I heard that there were several levels earlier."

"The higher the level."

"The tattoos on your body will become denser."

"The more ghosts you stab, the more ghosts you stab."

"There are records in some ancient books that in ancient times there were thirteen or fourteen-year-olds who entered the ghost pool as a mortal and were able to suppress thousands of ghosts. When they walked out of the clear pool, they were worshiped by thousands of ghost households."

"These people with the Ghost Suppression Division tattoos on their bodies are no longer human beings, but half-ghosts and half-humans. They are not allowed to take off their armor and return to the fields and return to the world in this life, which is similar to the ancient tattoo punishment."

"Because the early Haiwei divisions were still in their infancy, and the immortal sea was suddenly connected, and the immortal road appeared. Many of the legends and rules were directly copied from myths and legends, and the details were very unreasonable."

"Later, Haiwei canceled this selection method and tattoo levels, but the tradition of tattooing is still passed down. The Ghost Suppression Division will tattoo a hundred ghosts on the body."

"Like the man in the clay figurine, his flesh is almost all black and gray with blue. If he is a senior from the Ghost Suppression Division, then I can't count how many ghosts he has tattooed on his body. It's really scary."

Ji Dao continued to speculate and explain.

This speculation is reasonable and based on scriptures. The causes, consequences and various conditions are clear and very convincing.

Because he was at the scene, standing next to the lock box, less than one meter away from the skinny living person, several ghost generals' long knives flew almost under his nose.

So he can see more details.

There is also more information available than in the command room.

In addition, until now, his long sword was still firmly stuck in the arm of the skinny living man. Just by the touch from the sword tip, Ji Dao could confirm that the skinny living man was human.

He can only be human.

It couldn't be any other species.

Because the bones in his arms are the same as those of normal people, if the bones are abnormal, then he and the immortal corpse will instantly notice that there is a problem with the position of the bones when the sword penetrates the bones.

Since he is a human being.

There was another reason for the blue-gray skin. Combined with the ghost master preventing him from being cruel, the answer was only a tattoo, and he deduced that the skinny man was related to the Ghost Suppression Division.

And the time can be roughly matched.

The age of the ancient ship is the early Ming Dynasty, which was the embryonic period of Haiwei Zhenguisi and the period when there was a level of tattoos.

"Ancient Ghost Suppression Division?"

Zheng Yun looked slightly surprised.

The appearance of the ancient ghost-suppressing company in this ancient ship is actually not a strange thing, it is even very reasonable.

Because the Ghost Suppression Division is inherently weird.

Their responsibility is to suppress ghosts, and they often appear in weird places that ordinary people can't even imagine, either on cliffs or deep mountains and old forests. They stay in town for a long time.

As long as the ghosts don't die.

They probably won't withdraw either.

That was the case with the original ghost general.

The seven ghost generals were from the Ghost Suppression Department and were accidentally discovered by Zheng Yun on the top floor of the Hades Pavilion deep in La Maine Town.

The Underworld Pavilion and the Ghost Seal were sealed by Haiwei. Afterwards, many ghost suppressors were left behind, buried in stone coffins, guarding the Underworld Pavilion from ancient times to the present day, even to modern times.

It can be seen from the history of ghost generals.

The Ghost Suppression Division has a very evil style of doing things, and they don't treat the ghosts as human beings at all. The specific action process may be:

Citizens in a certain place report an unsolved case.

The ordinary sea guards go to investigate.

It is found that the case is related to ghosts.

The ordinary sea guards mark the location.

The Immortal Supervision Division dispatches the Ghost Suppression Division to go.

The Ghost Suppression Division arrives and takes action.

There are two types of results. One is to completely kill the ghosts and monsters, and there is no need to deal with the aftermath. The other is that for various reasons, the ghosts and monsters cannot be killed and can only be suppressed.

After the second situation occurs.

The Ghost Suppression Division will leave a few ghost generals to guard the scene of the crime, and then everything will be over and no longer care.

No matter how remote the crime scene is, no matter if there are living people nearby, and no matter how difficult and stuffy the guarding conditions are, as long as someone is left to guard, the case is considered over.

It's like leaving a human figurine.

The ghost generals are really not regarded as human beings.

Even though the Ming Dynasty has fallen, no one has notified them, and they are still lying in the stone coffin of the Hades Pavilion guarding the ghost seal.

It matches what Ji Dao said.

The Ghost Suppression Division is no longer considered human, but half human and half ghost. They cannot return to the mortal world. Staying in the dangerous place of gods and ghosts to guard is probably their best destination, at least they can sleep peacefully.

From this perspective, the Ghost Suppression Division can appear in any unexpected place. Any area related to ghosts may hide ghosts in some corners.

But ordinary ghosts do not have this qualification.

Only in the second case, ghosts that cannot be killed, or ghosts that Haiwei does not want to kill for some purpose, will the Ghost Suppression Division be refreshed in nearby corners.

"The Ghost Suppression Division actually has such a past? What is the ghost pool? What have the ghosts suffered?"

Zhang Ergou couldn't help muttering.

Ji Dao's words are really weird. The ghosts that can be seen every day are not even considered human, but half ghosts. How did Haiwei train them in the first place?

It won't be by means of gods and ghosts.

Refining people into half ghosts alive?

Listening to what Ji Dao said, it was probably true. The ghost pool had come out, and there were thirteen or fourteen years old who entered the ghost pool, and came out alive. These keywords were horrifying.

Could it be that all the ghosts had to enter the ghost pool when they were young, and if they died, they died, and if they lived, they would be the Ghost Suppression Division?

This didn't sound like a righteous method.

But Zhang Ergou didn't dare to ask more at this moment, because this kind of situation often happened. The more he contacted the Immortal Supervision Division, the more he knew. In fact, the Sea Guards often used some weird methods.

For example, Hanxian.

At the beginning, Hanxian didn't know how many Sea Guards he ate, including the ships and people. He was a sinful god and evil creature, but after being successfully subdued by the Sea Guards, he was still named Xian...

Regardless of origin.

Only the result.

It was quite similar to the ancient Zhao'an.

The selection method of the Ghost Suppression Division also had a similar taste. The ghost pool was not a good word at first, but after being adopted by the Sea Guards, even if it was black, it could be completely cleaned in the end.

These things are taboos.

Just think about it in your mind, but don't dare to ask it openly. Zhang Ergou is not a fool. How dare he ask these taboos in front of the head of the Immortal Supervision Division?

He even has to make good use of it.

The Immortal Master inherited the orthodoxy of the Immortal Supervision Division, and his thinking is also the same. His subordinates are all criminals. As long as he seizes the opportunity to reform well, he can be completely cleansed like Han Xian in the future...

"You are not the heir of the Ghost Suppression Division? Don't you know?" Ji Dao asked Zhang Ergou through the intercom.

"Master Dao, why do you have to bring up my ugly story again."

Zhang Ergou's expression changed slightly. If he could do it again, even if he died, he would never claim to be the heir of the Ghost Suppression Division. He pretended that time, but he was scolded for the rest of his life.

"I'm afraid it's the Ghost Suppression Division."

Zheng Yun stared at the skinny living man and nodded.

At this moment, the ghost general had scraped off most of the mud skin on the skinny living man, revealing more skin. Almost all places visible to the naked eye were all that gray-green color.

It should be a tattoo.

Zheng Yun often saw the Hundred Ghosts tattooed on the ghost generals, from the neck to the ankles, all tattooed.

The early Ghost Suppression Division was probably the same, from the neck to the ankles, but when there were many ghosts, the density was also greater.

The skinny living man had at least a thousand ghosts tattooed on his body, so dense that it was almost impossible to see the normal skin color. In addition, his skin was dry and his body was weakened, so the ghost patterns were squeezed and deformed into a mess.

So it looked gray and green.

The original pattern was almost invisible.

"Master Xian, this may not be a good thing. If this person is really from the Ghost Suppression Division, it means that there must be a difficult evil ghost nearby, hiding somewhere in this underground lake."

"In addition, he has been sealed in the box for a long time, and his mind may not be clear, and he may not be able to obey the orders of the contemporary Immortal Supervisor. Just now, he picked up the porcelain bottle, which may be to fight back against me."

Ji Dao stared at the skinny living man with worry.

He said this without any other thoughts, just because of the behavior of the skinny living man and Zhou Jiu, Zhou Jiu ambushed the ghost soldiers, and the skinny living man tried to pick up the porcelain bottle, not knowing what to do.

At this moment, the people inside and outside the ancient ship.

All wore ancient sea guard official uniforms.

If the skinny living man was the Ghost Suppression Division, how could he not recognize this uniform? Seeing the Sea Guard Immortal Supervisor return here, he actually remained silent and even tried to fight back?

"Does he really want to fight back?"

Zheng Yun asked softly.

He understood what Ji Dao meant, but there were also a few details here. First, when the ghost soldier pulled up the lid of the box, he was wearing a closed diving suit, and the skinny living man could not see the official uniform.

So he stabbed out with his claws.

Trying to kill the person who opened the box.

When Ji Dao's corpse fell from the sky, the box was completely damaged, and the skinny living man could see Ji Dao's clothes, he never tried to fight back, and he didn't even dodge the long sword.

Zheng Yun saw it clearly.

He really didn't dodge.

The ghost general behind him threw a flying knife to stab the porcelain bottle, and the skinny living man just dodged and didn't fight back against the ghost general.

And at this moment.

Several ghost generals surrounded the skinny living man, and several long swords flew up and down. The skinny living man was motionless, letting the blade pass by, even if it pierced his heart.

Really didn't recognize him?

Why did Zheng Yun feel that the skinny living man had recognized Ji Dao and the ghost general's official uniforms, so he let them do it, even if the sword pierced his bones, he was willing...

And it didn't matter whether he recognized him or not.

As long as he was a person who could breathe, even if he was possessed by gods and ghosts, the worst that could happen was that he would be sent to the Hades Pavilion for a turn.

"I can't say for sure. He didn't say a word from beginning to end. I'm afraid he doesn't speak human language like the ghost masters."

"Although the senior of the Ghost Suppression Division is one of us, it is also possible that it will be infected by ghosts, just like the ghost masters. Aren't they also harmed by the Ghost Seal over the years?"

Ji Dao was still on guard.

But what he said made a lot of sense. This point really had to be guarded against. We must not feel close to the skinny living man just by hearing the name of the Ghost Suppression Division. We still had to act with caution.

"Let's see what the ghost general does."

Zheng Yun chose to believe the ghost general's judgment.

Everyone stopped talking and watched the ghost general continue to scrape the mud until the skinny living man was scraped clean from head to toe.

The ghost generals retreated one by one.

The true face of the skinny living man was revealed.

This man had long hair and an old face. He looked about the same age as the immortal corpse next to him, but he didn't have the immortal style of the immortal corpse. Instead, there was a strong breath of death between his eyebrows.

There was no vitality in his eyes.

It was much worse than the full skin of the ghost general. He didn't look like an immortal, but more like a zombie.

Until this moment, he still held the porcelain bottle, his eyes were calm and indifferent, and he looked directly at the ghost general in front of him.

The ghost general also stared at him.

The two sides looked at each other quietly.

Everyone inside and outside the screen watched this scene, holding their breath, wondering what would happen next.

Time passed slowly.

Ten seconds, half a minute, three minutes.

The skinny living man didn't move, and the ghost general in front of him didn't move either. The two sides looked at each other quietly, as if frozen in place.

"Master Xian, this is..."

Zhang Ergou couldn't help asking. He thought that his realm was not enough, and he couldn't see through the mystery in the field. He didn't understand what was going on.

"Ji Dao, what do you think?"

Zheng Yun frowned and thought deeply, then asked Ji Dao.

Although he was the master of the ghost general, he couldn't understand what the ghost general was doing. Could it be that the two sides were fighting with their eyes?

"Master Xian, I don't know either."

Ji Dao scratched his head. The two sides were in a stalemate in front of him. He was watching in real time from the first row. He didn't feel any ghostly wind or any aura.

The Ghost Suppression Division is full of people like this.

They can't say a word of human language even if they are beaten to death.

What can people use to guess?
