Unlike the structure below, the top floor of Ping An Building is a large flat floor.
Only two thick pillars support it.
And on that pillar, there were carvings depicting the eighteen punishments of hell.
A torch was stuck on top, emitting a faint blue light.
On the top floor, there is actually a wide staircase.
At the top of the stairs, thousands of beaded curtains blocked the view, but you could vaguely see figures moving behind the beaded curtains.
The end of the ladder.
Bai Yusheng put his hands in his trouser pockets and directed his men to move the gifts dedicated to their ancestors out of the elevator one by one.
I also lined up all the gifts in order to display them more intuitively.
After doing all this, he asked everyone to divide into two columns and guard the left and right sides.
It is quite similar to the formation used by emperors in ancient times when they went to court.
Bai Yusheng cleared his throat, stood in the middle of the stairs, and shouted:
"Junior Bai Yusheng, I would like to wish my grandpa a happy birthday! I wish my grandpa a long life and may you be blessed forever!"
Bai Yusheng's men also knelt down and worshiped:
"I wish our ancestors a long life and may they be blessed forever!!"
"I wish our ancestors a long life and may they be blessed forever!!"
"I wish our ancestors a long life and may they be blessed forever!!"
Amid everyone's celebrations, two voluptuous female ghosts, half-clothed, emerged from the bead curtain.
With a strange smile on her pale face, the female ghost slowly rolled up the bead curtain.
I saw an old man nearly three meters tall, lying on his side on the Arhat bed behind the bead curtain.
Although the old man has a white beard and a skinny body, he does not look senile at all.
Instead, he just wrapped a piece of white silk around his body and lay on his side in the gentle countryside of several enchanting female ghosts.
In front of him were all the delicacies and delicious delicacies.
This old man is Shiraishi Xi, an existence close to the ghost king level!
As soon as Bai Shixi appeared, even Bai Yusheng and Fang Qiu lowered their heads, not daring to look directly at him.
Not to mention the subordinates Bai Yusheng brought.
Bai Shixi didn't seem to pay attention to these juniors who came to wish him a birthday.
He was minding his own business playing with his toys.
Bai Yusheng didn't dare to urge him, he could only lower his head, even though his neck was already sore.
After a long time, Baishi let out a soft hum:
"Everyone, please raise your heads."
Everyone in the Bai family raised their heads and saw Bai Shixi already sitting on the Arhat bed, with his enchanting female ghosts sitting on both sides of him.
Bai Yusheng smiled and said: "Grandpa, our ancestors asked me to say hello to you."
"I'm fine, very fine!"
Shiraishi sneered, raised his head and said:
"There are too many birthdays, so it's meaningless. Every time I close my eyes, it's another year. It just so happens that I'm about to break through and become the King of Ghosts. Let's see what gifts you give me this time!"
Bai Yusheng quickly ordered his subordinates to open the gifts.
Gold and silver jewelry, silk and satin, elixirs.
There is no need to say more about these.
When many of the boxes were opened, they were filled with neatly arranged black gourds.
Bai Shixi glanced at them, turning a blind eye to those precious treasures. Instead, he was very concerned about these black gourds.
Bai Yusheng picked up a black gourd and opened the cork. Dozens of incomplete souls floated out from it.
All these souls were taken away from living people. Because they are incomplete and have no self-awareness, they are just lonely ghosts.
Now I don't even know how to run away, I'm just floating in the air stupidly.
Bai Yusheng introduced: "Grandpa, there are thirty-six remnant souls in each black gourd. This time I have prepared a total of twenty boxes for you, each box contains ten black gourds! In total, that is seven
One thousand two hundred remnant souls!"
Seven thousand two hundred remnant souls means that seven thousand two hundred people were killed by Bai Yusheng.
Among them, there was even the remnant soul of Chen Dawei.
Even Fang Qiu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this huge number.
Under the background of this era, seven thousand two hundred remnant souls are not so easy to obtain.
So many remnant souls were all fed to an old guy like Shiraishi Xi. What a waste of resources!
Fang Qiu was envious and jealous.
As expected, Shiraishi was very satisfied with this gift.
He laughed loudly and waved, and the enchanting female ghost next to him stepped forward and collected all the gifts.
After receiving the gift, Shiraishi was in a good mood.
Bai Yusheng took the opportunity to say: "Grandpa, what do you think of the things we discussed with you before?"
Shiraishi didn't think much about it: "Isn't it just to deal with some unknown people? I saw that you brought a lot of people here, so I will agree to your request!"
Saying that, Bai Shixi stood up and stretched for a long time:
"It just so happens that today is my birthday, and my breakthrough to the Ghost King is just around the corner, so I will use the little life you mentioned as the descendant of Lu Ban to help me break through to the Ghost King's realm!!"
With Bai Shi's happy reply, Bai Yusheng felt relieved.
He knew that what happened tonight was already 100% certain.
So Bai Yusheng bowed his waist and said:
"In this case, I will take everyone to retreat first. When the time comes, Grandpa, you can keep Yan Shouyi and his party, and we will show up to help you!"
Bai Shixi waved his hand and said disdainfully: "Even if you don't come back, they are definitely not my opponents!"
"Grandpa, it's better to be careful. Yan Shouyi has gathered Liu Jingkang, the ghost king of the Liu family, and Lu Jing, the great elder of the Lushan sect..."
"Liu Jingkang has long been weak and there is nothing to be afraid of. As for Lu Jing... when I was still alive, Lu Jing was not born yet!"
Shiraishi is extremely confident in himself.
Having said this, Bai Yusheng did not dare to say more.
He turned around, waved his hand, and took everyone down.
At the same time, Yan Shouyi and others had already laid an ambush above the 45th floor.
Hearing Bai Yusheng and others coming downstairs, Yan Shouyi and the others knew that the time had come.
…
As the sun sets, the sunlight gradually disappears and darkness takes over the world.
It also covers the black bamboo forest in the Wenrufang of the Three Lanes and Seven Alleys and the mountain gate of the Lushan Sect.
Lin Zitong has been waiting at the tea pavilion outside the black bamboo forest for a long time.
The chessboard placed in the tea pavilion was for her to play more than ten games with herself.
Just when Lin Zitong was almost bored, there was finally movement in the black bamboo forest.
I saw Lu Jingsheng, who was as short as a child, walking slowly from the black bamboo forest on crutches.
When Lin Zitong saw Lu Jingsheng, she immediately stood up and ran towards him:
"Master, why don't you go into retreat earlier and later in the evening? Why do you go into retreat at this time?!"
Lu Jingsheng laughed and said, "What's the matter? Master is in retreat. Do you still have to apply to his disciples?"
"Oh, that's not what I meant," Lin Zitong said anxiously, "I've been waiting for you here all day, I just want to ask you..."
"I would like to ask my teacher, why should you marry Bai Yusheng?" Lu Jingsheng had already expressed Lin Zitong's innermost feelings.
Lin Zitong couldn't help but be stunned: "Have you counted it again?"
Lu Jingsheng shook his head slightly: "Zitong, your life is not a matter of being a teacher, but your problems are already written on your face."
"Is there any?"
Lin Zitong quickly touched her face.
"Fool."
Lu Jingsheng shook his head helplessly and walked into the tea pavilion.
Lin Zitong hurriedly chased after him.
She frowned and said: "You know that I have been waiting for him for ten years and will not marry him unless I am in this life. Why do you want me to make an engagement with Bai Yusheng? You don't know who Bai Yusheng is. He is a scumbag.
You beast! If I marry him, I might as well die!"
"Don't worry."
Lu Jingsheng said unhurriedly: "Zi Tong, everyone has his or her own destiny. Love is precious, but if you lose your life, how can there be any love at all?"
Lin Zitong gritted his teeth and said: "Master, you are wrong. If you can't be with the person you love in this life, then your days will be like years. It's better to die as soon as possible, reincarnate as soon as possible, and renew your previous marriage in the next life!"
Hearing this, Lu Jingsheng couldn't help but be stunned.
He said to himself: "Maybe the senior brother thought the same way back then."
"Master, how long has it been, why are you talking about senior brother?" Lin Zitong said with a bitter face, "You said that if I don't marry Bai Yusheng, I will die. What on earth is going on?"
Lu Jingsheng came to his senses and replied slowly:
"This is true."
"How do you know? Didn't you just say that you couldn't calculate my fate?"
"This is not calculated for the teacher, but..."
Lu Jingsheng paused and said, "It was written in a letter I received the day after I accepted you as my disciple."
"Letter? What letter?" Lin Zitong said anxiously, "This is a major event in my life. How can you just believe some letters from unknown sources! Master, you are not young anymore, don't be confused!"
Lu Jingsheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Why did his direct disciple get so anxious that he even scolded his master?
He explained: "You don't know something. That letter predicted a lot of things in the future. I didn't believe it at first, but later the predictions came true one by one, and I had to believe it. And that letter is accepting you."
I sent it one month before I was a disciple, which means that even my master was involved in the conspiracy. Can you not believe it?"
What Lu Jingsheng said was not unreasonable, but Lin Zitong was still unwilling to accept his fate:
"Then take out the letter from that year and show it to me!"
If Lu Jingsheng couldn't produce the letter, Lin Zitong would never believe it.
Who would have thought that Lu Jingsheng would take out an envelope directly from his clothes.
It’s the same letter I received ten years ago!
Lin Zitong was stunned, but she didn't expect Master to carry this letter with him.
Lu Jingsheng handed the letter directly to Lin Zitong and said:
"The letter is right here. Read it for yourself. After reading it, it's not too late to discuss with your master whether to marry or not."
Lin Zitong took the envelope and opened it quickly.
The first moment she saw the letter, she couldn't help but be stunned.
Why does this stationery look so familiar?
With this question in mind, she read the contents of the letter again.
The more content he read, the more solemn Lin Zitong's expression became.
By the end, her hands unconsciously used force and had crumpled the letter paper into a ball.
Lu Jingsheng asked from the side: "Have you finished reading?"
"Disciple, I've finished reading."
Lin Zitong put down the letter and sat upright.
"I have kept this letter for ten years. I have carried it with me for ten years, just waiting for you to come and question me."
Lu Jingsheng sighed as he spoke: "The prophecies in the letter have come true one by one, and they are all related to you. My teacher is also very curious about who the person who wrote this letter is. Zitong, do you know who this letter is?
Did you write it?"
Lin Zitong's eyes were in trance.
After hesitating for nearly ten seconds, she nodded slowly:
