Chapter 98: The Covenant to the Ghost

Underworld drama?!

The three words spoken by the old drum master were like beating drums in Qin Manjiang's heart.

"Is it...a dirty trick?"

Qin Manjiang asked with a scared look on his face.

The old drum master shook his head: "Although they are all sung to ghosts, the Yin opera is sung in the human world, while the Huangquan opera... is the place where ghosts go, and the opera is sung for ghosts."

His statement finally solved Qin Manjiang's biggest doubt all along.

Why is the ghost story called Huang Quan Opera instead of Yin Opera?

It seems that the difference lies here.

Qin Manjiang pretended to be puzzled and asked in a low voice: "I...are we really going to sing on Huangquan Road?"

As soon as he said this, he found that everyone in the cabin was silent.

"The laws of nature are clear, there will always be karma and retribution. Boy, you are also unlucky..."

The old drummer sighed and stopped talking.

Qin Manjiang's heart skipped a beat, but he finally figured out the general context of the whole matter.

Judging from the current situation, this [Nanzhifang] received an invitation to sing an opera.

But the place we are going to this time... is the territory of the evil spirits, not the human world.

Therefore, it is not called Yin Opera, but Huangquan Opera.

"Why do we have to go...can we not go?" Qin Manjiang asked in a pitiful voice.

"Go, there is still a glimmer of hope. If you don't go...you still remember those things that were scurrying under the water just now. What comes to your door...is much more terrifying than those things."

"What is it?" Qin Manjiang asked doubtfully.

After changing into a body with a controllable expression, Qin Manjiang discovered his acting talent.

His doubts made it impossible to see any flaws.

The old drummer revealed a lot of information. For some reason, [Nanzhifang] provoked a fierce ghost, and the ghost insisted on them singing a Huangquan opera.

It seems that the clue to this final game...maybe lies in the identity of that fierce ghost.

"she……"

The old drum master suddenly stopped and knocked Qin Manjiang on the head: "Go to bed quickly, the night is still long."

When he said this, Qin Manjiang felt that his body was indeed very tired. He glanced outside. In the moonlit sky, the moonlight was like water, and the river was as quiet as a dead zone. The fleet of [Nanzhifang] had to move forward.

Move forward in the dead zone.

After thinking for a while, Qin Manjiang leaned on the canopy of the boat, closed his eyes, and took a rest for the time being.

————

On the largest ship in Nazhifang, the lady who just sang "Exploring Yinshan" to let the fleet pass through the area where the water ghosts are safe and sound is one of the six people brought back by the class leader Zhao Qigong. She is also the most beautiful among the six.

Even if you don't apply makeup late at night, your appearance will be pure and beautiful.

However, when she faced the bronze mirror at this moment, there was a different emotion in her eyes.

"I'm...Xiao Qing?"

She slowly raised her hand and touched her face.

Looking at the beautiful face in the bronze mirror, he said to himself: "The little Qingyi that the fat boss fell in love with in the dream is me..."

The way she spoke was very strange, because no one knew that the girl Lin Yanqinglin brought back by the class leader had already changed her soul inside.

He is none other than Mei Sijun, a descendant of the Liyuan family.

The song "Standing on the bow of the ship" just now was played by him too. The curtain man in the troupe came over and asked him to speak. He had to sing "Exploring Yinshan" to scare these little devils.

Maybe... this ultimate game will be chosen, and there is some sense of destiny in it.

He is the only one who can sing, even better than the possessed girl "Lin Yanqing" who has a good voice but hasn't learned it for long.

That section of "Exploring Yin Mountain" really stunned most of the people in the troupe.

The leader of the class, Zhao Qigong, was overjoyed. He clapped his hands and paced back and forth, mumbling, "He's saved, he's saved."

Then he ordered the steward to take her to rest quickly so as not to damage her throat from exhaustion.

Mei Sijun was placed in the best room of the ship. However, when it became quiet, he was shocked to realize the huge secret hidden in the person possessed by his consciousness——

This Lin Yanqing, "Miss Lin", is not a girl!

She is actually a man!

Mei Sijun was a little dumbfounded, thinking about his current situation, and also thought that other people were probably in the same situation as him, being like someone in this troupe on some other ship.

He stood in the cabin and wanted to walk out. If everyone changed their appearance and identity, how to recognize them would be a problem.

But this is not a problem for Mei Sijun.

What really made him feel troublesome was the end of the trip... the underworld drama.

He possesses the protagonist, so this time he is the one who sings the underworld opera to the ghost!

Just as he was thinking about those things, Mei Sijun suddenly smelled a strong odor.

How could he, who has been playing the game of ghost stories all year round, not be able to smell the source of this smell?

This is corpse odor!

He immediately shouted: "Come here! Someone is dead!"

Class leader Zhao Qigong was most worried about the safety of "Miss Lin" at the moment. Hearing this, he immediately led people to break down the door and enter!

"Miss Lin, are you okay?"

He asked eagerly with a stick in his hand.

Seeing "Lin Yanqing" look frightened, he immediately ordered people to look for abnormalities everywhere.

Soon, they also smelled the stench.

Several people searched for the source of the odor, and actually found a body!

"This is...Old Liu Tou?!" Zhao Qigong's expression changed.

Lao Liutou is the door curtain man in the theater troupe. The so-called door curtain man means that when actors enter and leave the stage, they enter and exit through the two doors on the left and right of the front of the stage. There are door curtains hanging on the doors, so there are a dozen door curtain men at the upper and lower stage doors.

He is specifically responsible for setting up and placing door curtains for entering and exiting the stage. Making door curtains is not a simple matter of putting them up and lifting them up, but also pays great attention to the accuracy of time and scale. Skilled door curtain makers can add luster to the actors' appearances and appearances.

Old Liu Tou has been working for most of his life and is also responsible for some trivial matters behind the scenes. Just now, he asked him to ask Miss Lin to open her mouth and sing a piece of "Exploring Yinshan". She never thought that he would actually go to Huangquan one step ahead of schedule.

But why did he die?

Several strong martial artists all turned blue. Looking at the corpse lying beside the window of Lin Yanqing's house, if they could have run away, they would have run away long ago.

"The class...the class leader...hasn't even reached that ghost's realm. Someone in our troupe has died. Otherwise...we won't go?"

The big man who led the martial arts couldn't help but said.

"Do you want to leave?" Zhao Qigong was not in a hurry, and just stared at him coldly, "Chen Xiangkui, you are also an old man in the team. You should know the outcome. Our only way to survive now is to sing this play well."

"But..." The martial artist Chen Xiangkui glanced at Old Liu Tou's corpse and trembled: "But when have we ever seen such a corpse? He was still alive just now, and now he stinks!"

"Master, this ghost is too fierce, I'm afraid... I can't suppress it!"
