Quick Travel: After the European Emperor can sign in

Chapter 311 Hell’s Daily Life 33

The next day.

When Yuan Xi yawned and walked out of the house, in the fully expanded shelter area, people sent by the imperial government were doing a lot of infrastructure construction. Dust was flying, and there were busy figures everywhere.

The dilapidated haunted houses were demolished, and a fence was built around the border of the sanctuary. The shops on the street were originally controlled by ghosts, but this time some shops were included in the sanctuary. Later, these shops will be cleaned up, clearing out the things left by the previous ghost owner and replacing them with goods suitable for humans.

"Yuanxi, you woke up just in time. Let's go choose a store."

Wu Muzhao took Yuan Xi and his brother and walked towards the main street.

As they walked, he explained to Yuan Xi, "Given the special features of the Ghost Market, it will definitely become the center of exchange and trade for the Shenwu Empire in the future. Right now, the Ghost Market's sanctuary has been almost divided up by various forces, but because of our hard work, the higher-ups have granted us a street-side shop each."

Don't refuse it in vain, Yuanxi will be happy to accept it.

He glanced around and saw fifteen people following him, three teams from the Ghost Extermination Division.

"Do we need so many people to follow us when we travel together?"

And it's in a sheltered area.

"You didn't know last night when you were asleep. In the middle of the night, four bishops from the Eternal Life Cult came to launch a surprise attack. They captured more than a dozen cult members, and the rest were killed."

"I'm not worried about the remnants of the evil cult, so I asked more people to follow me for safety."

What Wu Muzhao didn't know was that the Church of Eternal Life held a meeting overnight last night. The high priest and other senior officials promoted a new bishop to be in charge of the missionary work in the Shenwu Empire. Then he took his confidants and took away all the property and ran away overnight, leaving only an empty shell in the original nest.

Walking back on the main street, the street that was once bustling with ghosts was now much quieter. The spacious street was divided into two by a golden barrier. The official efficiency was very high. The boundary line, which was the center of the road, had been fenced off, and the two sides were clearly separated.

Of course, the sanctuary only occupies a corner of the ghost market. Beyond this one-kilometer-long divided street, the other streets remain the same as usual.

When Yuanxi saw this group of people appear, many ghosts outside the barrier looked excited and shouted.

Although I couldn't understand what they were saying, it didn't look like anything good.

Then he saw a ghost butcher holding a butcher knife in his hand, attacking the sanctuary barrier madly with a ferocious face.

Looking at the ghost butcher who was working hard to attack the barrier on the right, and then looking at the shop with a butcher's sign on the left, Yuan Xi suddenly realized.

No matter how bad it is, no one would be able to bear the sudden confiscation of their property.

"Are you interested in this shop?" Wu Muzhao stroked his chin. "You can choose this shop, but it's a butcher shop run by a ghost. You should be mentally prepared."

Yuan Xi knew exactly what kind of meat this butcher shop sold based on the human body parts hanging at the door.

"See that ghost on the right?"

Looking in the direction Yuanxi pointed, Wu Muzhao's face darkened, "Ghost Butcher, so this store belongs to him. Damn it."

Thinking of how many humans had been dismembered and sold by this ghost, Wu Muzhao immediately raised his hand and wanted to use the card to give it a ruthless blow.

Yuan Xi held his hand, "Don't worry yet."

"Why do we still keep this kind of ghost?"

Yuan Xi smiled and said, "This ghost is so persistent, it's really touching. Alas, who can blame me for being kind-hearted? Let's burn down this store first."

After hearing Yuan Xi's previous words, Wu Muzhao was puzzled and suspected that Yuan Xi had a problem with his brain for actually sympathizing with a ghost. After hearing this, Wu Muzhao exclaimed, "What a guy! He not only kills the ghost but also destroys its heart."

But he likes it, hehe.

The fire burned and the flames engulfed the butcher shop. The ghost butcher outside the barrier was stunned for a moment, and his frantic attack on the barrier stopped. With a bang, the butcher knife in his hand fell to the ground.

One could vaguely see two lines of tears flowing down its rough face.

"That ghost is so miserable, it's crying. I hate seeing such sad things." Yuan Xi covered his eyes, turned his head away, and urged: "Hurry up and send it off."

Wu Muzhao: ...Why don't you suppress the upturned corners of your mouth?

He wordlessly took out the card and sent the sad Ghost Butcher away with one blow.

The ghosts that were originally gathered outside the barrier and cursing suddenly dispersed.

This area has become completely deserted. Even ghosts are unwilling to pass by here. They would rather take a detour.

The evil boss of the shop opposite glared at the people in the sheltered area fiercely, shouting that it was bad luck and why did they have to encounter such a bad thing.

Seeing the streets so deserted, they closed their shop doors in anger, already thinking about how to resell the shops.

Yuan Xi and Wu Muzhao looked from one end to the other and found that most of the shops needed to be purified by fire. The goods sold in them were really disgusting to them.

Finally, Wu Muzhao waved his hand and burned them all down, and simply built new ones to avoid the disgust.

A week later, after collecting many crystals of evil spirit souls, Yuan Xi concluded that each crystal had a different color. He was tired of this always gray place, and since he didn't need to worry about the follow-up matters, Yuan Xi left the ghost market and returned to the capital.

The time that followed was like pressing the accelerator. With the ghost market connecting transactions in various cities, new ghost-avoiding houses were built one after another. The capital was the first to complete the replacement of buildings, and other cities were also catching up with the progress.

After the ghost repellent spray was mass-produced, it was first supplied to official personnel such as the military and the Ghost Extermination Bureau, and there was still enough capacity to open exchange channels to the public.

Ghost repellent spray has become a must-have ghost repellent tool for everyone.

The ghosts are very depressed. The number of unhygienic and disgusting humans is increasing day by day. The stench that penetrates deep into their souls makes it difficult for them to swallow.

There are fewer ghosts wandering around in the city, because as more and more buildings that make ghosts uncomfortable are built, going to the city is like a human jumping into a toilet, which requires tremendous courage.

The cities returned to human hands, and the wilderness to the demons.

The more living space one side has, the less living space the other side has. The two races are bound to compete fiercely for living space. Currently, humans are still at the bottom, and only the Shenwu Empire can maintain the situation and even has the ability to expand into the wild.
