Chapter 20: Receiving Supplies!
Outside the underworld warehouse, two wild ghosts, holding soul-hooking locks, stood silently like door gods.
Upon seeing Jiang Chen arrive, one of the wandering ghosts immediately stepped forward to demand proof.
"Approval slip!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen raised his chin and looked directly at the person through his nostrils.
He then put it in his mouth, and a note bearing the aura of Judge Lu appeared in his hand.
The wild ghost ignored him completely.
After receiving the approval slip and sensing the unique aura of Judge Lu on it,
Wild Ghost nodded and headed into the warehouse behind him without looking back.
"Please wait a moment, sir. Your items will be delivered shortly."
"Um."
Jiang Chen nodded casually, his smugness becoming even more pronounced.
The wild ghost simply watched quietly, not paying much attention.
Looking at the indifferent expression on the guard's face in front of the warehouse.
Jiang Chen immediately felt rather bored.
So he stopped paying attention to the other party and waited patiently.
Not long after, the wild ghost that had just entered the warehouse also came out.
And he was also holding a small bag in his hand.
"My lord, I have put everything you requested into the Soul-Capturing Bag."
"it is good."
After taking the Soul-Capturing Bag from the guard, Jiang Chen couldn't wait to probe it with his divine sense.
The moment the soul probed in, a whole host of things flooded into view.
He suppressed his inner joy and examined it carefully.
Seeing that there were no problems, Jiang Chen left the warehouse.
After leaving the warehouse, Jiang Chen went straight back to the small hut assigned to him by the underworld.
The small house was not big, but it had everything you needed, including all the furniture.
As soon as he got home, he couldn’t wait to take out the items from the Soul-Capturing Bag and examine them one by one.
The first item was ten sticks of incense tied together to guide the soul.
As soon as the Soul-Guiding Incense was taken out, its unique sandalwood fragrance instantly filled the entire room.
Jiang Chen took a deep sniff.
His face was filled with delight: "It smells wonderful!"
Soul-Guiding Incense is for cultivation purposes; light one stick during cultivation.
It can not only increase the speed of cultivation, but also has the effect of calming the mind and focusing the spirit.
It's truly a great product.
Jiang Chen brought the Soul-Guiding Incense close to his nose and took another breath, enjoying it for a while before reluctantly putting it down.
Start examining the remaining items.
A pair of small yet exquisite soul-capturing bells, with a very simple function.
Shaking it can intimidate low-level monsters, but the stronger the monster, the weaker the effect.
The ten soul-hooking chains and the dozen mourning sticks are standard equipment of the underworld, although they are the lowest-grade D-level low-quality ghost artifacts.
But its advantage lies in its large quantity, enough to last him a lifetime.
After arranging these items in a row, Jiang Chen looked at the last item in the Soul-Capturing Bag.
That is, the one he could least understand, the Basic Qi Refining Technique!
"I've already practiced the basic techniques of the Underworld, so why would Judge Lu give me another one?"
"What does this mean?"
Jiang Chen took out the Basic Qi Refining Technique from the Soul-Capturing Bag.
His fingers kept tracing the pages of the book, lost in thought.
But he thought about it for a long time and still couldn't figure it out.
"Why don't we ask Judge Lu?"
Jiang Chen muttered something to himself, then got up and walked to the bedside, picking up his phone, which he always kept on the bedside table.
The latest mobile phone from the underworld: Apple 21!
That's right, it's a mobile phone. As the mortal world enters the era of modernization, the underworld is not to be outdone and has also begun its modernization.
Apart from the Gates of Hell, the Bridge of Helplessness, the Road to the Underworld, and the Stone of Three Lives, the rest of the area has been modernized.
And of course, there's hell!
As for how the cell phone came about, we have to thank Steve Jobs, who was in the Western hell, for sponsoring it.
Although they passed away in the mortal world, they continue to shine and give off warmth in the afterlife!
He is truly a model worker!
"Ugh, this phone is great in every way, but it's just too expensive!"
Jiang Chen stroked his phone as if it were something he was afraid to touch, something he was afraid to hold in his mouth for fear of it melting.
It was incredibly heartbreaking.
He usually doesn't bring anyone with him on missions.
If it gets scratched, he'll be heartbroken for a long time.
When Jiang Chen opened his phone, he found that the person who called and texted him the most was Fatty, a whopping 99+!
The thought of his promise to treat the fat man to dinner brought a slight smile to his lips.
After sending a message to the fat man on WeChat, he ignored it and instead found Lu Pan's contact information.
He thought about it for a while, but in the end, he shamelessly called.
Being thick-skinned can be a powerful weapon sometimes!
The Prosecutor's Office, the office of the highest-ranking official.
Judge Lu looked at the document in his hand, about to offer a solution.
The phone that was placed to the side suddenly vibrated.
"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"
"Um?"
Seeing that his work was interrupted, Judge Lu frowned deeply.
He put down the pen that was floating in mid-air.
I picked up my phone and saw the caller ID.
Judge Lu's lips twitched.
After thinking about it, I reluctantly decided to answer the call.
"Hey, what's wrong?"
"Hehe, sorry Judge Lu, I didn't bother you, did I?"
Hearing the cheeky laugh coming from the other end of the phone, he could already picture the other person's smiling face in his mind.
"Spit it out, don't disturb my work."
He suppressed the urge to slap the other person to death, lamenting inwardly, "What sins have I committed to elevate this guy to the status of a demon?"
In the past, every one of the impermanent beings was cold and taciturn, with an unapproachable demeanor.
But this guy, well... sigh...
This is truly an insult to civility!
Inside the room, Jiang Chen, who had been making a cheerful phone call, suddenly froze.
I felt a chill run down my spine and suddenly shivered.
He dared not joke around anymore and said seriously, "Judge Lu, I just want to ask about that basic Qi Refining Technique..."
Jiang Chen didn't spell it out, but he knew that Judge Lu would understand what he meant.
Sure enough, as soon as he mentioned the "Basic Qi Refining Technique".
The answer came from the other end of the phone: "Did a celestial being descend to earth?"
The tone was not one of doubt, but of certainty.
Jiang Chen was taken aback at first, then immediately nodded in affirmation.
"Yes, it was an unexpected divine intervention in the dungeon."
"Judge Lu, is there any connection between these two things?"
He scratched his head, indicating his confusion.
On the other side, Judge Lu sighed inwardly upon hearing this.
He paused for a moment, then replied, "This basic Qi cultivation manual is not for you to use, but for your followers."
"Huh?" Jiang Chen was stunned by the answer. "Why...why?"
"..." Upon hearing this, Judge Lu remained silent for a moment before replying, "If you want a horse to run, you have to feed it grass. There are other benefits for you to discover. Remember, don't bother me."
After saying that, Judge Lu hung up the phone and ignored him.
"Hello! Hello! Judge Lu! Judge Lu!"
Jiang Chen was speechless as he listened to the "beep beep beep!" sound in his ears.
"Honestly, why are all these big shots like this? They only say half of what they mean. Can't they just finish what they're saying all at once?"
He complained aloud, but in his heart he was pondering what Judge Lu had just said.
He can appreciate the horse's running, but what about other benefits?
What are the benefits?
A moment later, Jiang Chen had a guess in his mind.
"I don't think so?"
He scratched his head, then closed his eyes and focused his consciousness into his soul.
The moment I focused my mind, a small ball of incense and prayer power flew over automatically.
Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback when he saw this, but he quickly realized what was happening.
"This is... the power of incense offerings and prayers?!"
After understanding what this thing was, his soul also flew towards that ball of incense and the power of his vows.
In a short while, the two merged upon contact.
