Chapter 309: Doubts about the truth

Chapter 309: Doubts about the truth
Wu Xian returned to the main house.

Under the candlelight, I carefully read the information on the certificate.

"The funeral hall, the coffin, the money for the dead, the funerary objects, the offerings, the burial objects..."

"It seems that these six items are all that is needed to complete a proper funeral. There is one more element than the five I speculated before. This list should be the reward for killing the pale ghost."

In addition to these names, there are some scattered annotations on the certificate, which also contain very important information.

First is the coffin that has just been bound.

Lightning-struck wooden coffin: This coffin is made of century-old lightning-struck wood and is awakened by the energy of thunder, which can enhance the thunder-attribute attacks of the coffin owner!
Wu Xian's eyes widened: "There is actually such a buff?"

In this case, other funeral elements may not just be decorations to make up the numbers.

Each funeral element has its function, but whether one can obtain the enhanced effect depends on one's own means and luck.

Then Wu Xian looked at the 'ghost money' option.

Anything that can be traded with the living beings in the underworld can serve as ghost money, and the option of 'ghost banknotes' is already available.

Ghost Banknotes: Sold by the Bank of Heaven and Earth, it is the genuine currency for underworld transactions, widely recognized by the beings in the netherworld, in short supply, and has a purchasing power greater than its actual face value.

Wu Xian laughed again.

It seems that in the underworld, ghost money is a hard currency like gold, while other types of "ghost money" are as unreliable as gold yuan coupons or the currency of a turbulent small country.

His choice to worship the Five-Manifestation God of Wealth was the right one, and ghost money can indeed play a huge role in a proper funeral.

In addition, Mingqi refers to burial objects, and burial objects refer to things such as paper people and paper dogs. These two things vary from person to person. Wu Xian has already obtained the information, but has not yet obtained the actual objects.

So it’s still unclear now.

All that was left were the mourning hall and the offerings.

A proper funeral needs to be held in the right place, and that right place, if nothing unexpected happens, should be in the Undead City.

Now there is one more reason to go to the Undead City.

The thought of this.

Wu Xian's eyebrows were almost knotted.

How can they move those heavy coffins and jars to the Undead City? Can they ask old men and women to help carry them?

Do not make jokes……

……

Because Wu Xian killed the pale ghost instantly.

So even though it took some time to read, Wu Xian was still the first one to come back.

The second person who pushed the door open was Ran Huangtian.

The front of his clothes was covered in blood, and there was some meat residue on his mouth. He patted his stomach, burped, and squatted in the corner with his eyes squinted.

Such a horrible look.

Even if he was sent to a horror movie, he wouldn’t need any makeup to play the boss!
Wu Xian couldn't bear to see it anymore, so he found a wet rag and wiped his face.

then.

Ran Huangtian started shaking his butt...

Wu Xian suddenly got countless goose bumps all over his body. He threw the rag in his face and ignored him. He knew that this guy just wanted to wag his tail, but this scene was really hard to watch.

Next came Wen Chao and Jiang Chun.

Wen Chao smiled and turned back into the optimistic old man. The gloom he felt when he was "punished by the God of Earth" during the day was swept away.

Jiang Chunze followed Wen Chao closely, with a veil on his head. His movements were a little stiff, perhaps because he was injured.

Then Jian Lingyu, Su Xuan, Du E, and Wei Qinglan came back one after another, and they all easily dealt with the giant pale ghost.

Wu Xian is not the only one who has such means. Everyone who has survived to this day has some trump cards in his hand.

As soon as Du E came back.

She walked straight to Wu Xian with a cold face and sat down next to him. Wu Xian felt a chill and was mentally prepared. No matter what tricks this woman played, he could deal with it calmly.

Unexpectedly, Du E just said something out of the blue. "I should die in this blessed place... I hope you won't be surprised when you see me die."

Done.

She buried her face in her knees, her expression completely unclear, and it seemed as if she was crying secretly.

Wu Xian was confused.

What is this situation?
Did she have an incurable disease, or was she cursed to death, or was she under the influence of evil spirits and had suicidal thoughts?
Wu Xian thought about it for less than a minute and gave up.

It is too difficult to figure out Du E's thoughts, so just treat it as another weird move by Du E.

Waited for a while.

Li Juxian and Wei Hengbo, who were responsible for observing the number of moonlight monsters, also returned.

They brought back some not-so-good news.

Maybe it was because a moonlight monster was killed yesterday, so today the center of the village was full of monsters with green clothes and white heads, and there were at least dozens of them!
Wei Hengbo felt his scalp tingling whenever he thought of that scene.

Wu Xian's mouth twitched.

"If that's the case, then the two plans we originally made will be useless."

Faced with such an absolute number, it would be too dangerous to either directly engage in a group fight with the monsters in the center of the village or to disperse and deal with the monsters.

Therefore, everyone had to temporarily give up the hunting plan for tonight.

……

There are no hunting plans anymore.

Everyone could only wait in the main house. They didn't know when the three people who were cremated today would come to find them.

In the process of waiting.

Everyone looked at each other warily, their eyes full of distrust. The atmosphere in the room gradually became depressing and solemn, and gradually a smell of gunpowder was created.

There were ten of us when we left, and there were ten of us when we came back. It should have been a good thing that no one died.

But I have learned the lesson from the tall, rich and handsome guy last night.

No one can guarantee that among the ten people who returned, none of them would be possessed by the pale ghost!

Wu Xian narrowed his eyes.

If they continue to be suspicious of each other, it will affect the overall strength of the team.

Wei Hengbo couldn't help but stand up and said, "Why don't we all just think of a way to identify the ghost? Staring at each other like this is really frustrating."

His proposal was accepted by the majority.

Wu Xian looked at Wen Chao strangely. According to Wen Chao's mature and steady personality, he should be the first person to notice this kind of thing, but he was waiting for others to raise the issue...

That's easy.

Things are not easy to handle.

The only way to verify human ghosts at present is to identify them through collective worship of gods.

But a sneak attack could happen at any time, and no one wants to wait until tomorrow morning to get an answer.

Moreover, the collective worship every morning is most likely a reward for those who have escaped from the pale ghost. Now that the pale ghost is dead and everyone has received the reward, it is still unclear whether there will be an opportunity for collective worship tomorrow morning.

Just when everyone was doubting each other, Wu Xian proposed a solution.

"The body... the key is the body."

"If someone is replaced, the body of the replaced person should be left in the coffin or urn. We only need to check the coffin to know who has been replaced."

The plan is simple, all we have to do is go out and take a look.

But Wen Chao's expression changed slightly.

Du E proposed another solution: "I think we only need to check the coffins of the four newlyweds. The six of us can use the information on the certificate of ordination to verify its authenticity!"

Her plan is also very reliable.

But Wu Xian immediately realized that she didn't want anyone to see her coffin either!
