The World Shakes

Chapter 53

Places like the cowherd shop had a lot of customers.

The people who came and went were people who were stressed by their lives or families and wanted to relieve their worries.

The women were the main customers here.

Of course, there were also men.

The cowherd shop was usually crowded at night.

During the day, especially when it was not a rest day,

It was pitifully quiet during the day.

When Ghost Lantern and Tianxia arrived, they felt someone staring at them from the dark.

"Are you two customers together?

But it's still daytime now, and the staff here aren't at work yet ….

However, if you want to work here, you have to make an appointment in advance. "The door opened with a ding.

Tianxia and Ghost Lantern walked into the shop together.

The receptionist, who thought there were guests, changed his attitude when he saw their faces.

It was not rare for men to come to the cowherd shop.

There were quite a number of good-looking boys.

However, it was rare to see a man come with a partner.

"Let's sit here for a while.

Bring us some drinks.

We're waiting for someone. "

If there was no situation, according to Ghost Lantern's personality, he would probably walk around and leave. However, he chose to stay and ordered a few expensive drinks.

Tianxia and Ghost Lantern sat face to face in the small cowherd shop.

"Is there a problem here?"

Tianxia did not feel anything strange. However, when he entered the door, his body could not help but feel a chill. It was not the kind of chill that came from the temperature, but the kind that seeped into his bones. It was a cold, wet, and sticky chill.

"There are many ghosts here, but their souls are not complete." Ghost Lantern's face darkened. He was obviously suppressing his anger.

However, Tianxia looked around and did not see any ghosts.

"Why can't I see them?" Other than the sticky cold in the cowherd shop, there was nothing unclean.

There was not even a trace of black energy.

It was clearly a gathering place of human desires.

However, it was clean as if they were in heaven.

"Their souls have been stripped away. Only a little breath is left. It's normal that you can't see it. I can't see it either."

Ghost Lantern slowly took a sip of the wine that the waiter served. He was not used to the taste. After taking a sip, he did not touch it again.

"I only know that this place should be filled with human desires, but it is unbelievably clean." Tianxia did not want to be angry with Ghost Lantern anymore. He felt like the man liked to tease him.

"A prostitute's shop isn't a sex shop. The women who come here are only here to spend money to make the men happy and tell them about their troubles. Even if there's something dirty, it's just negative emotions." Ghost Lantern stopped Tianxia in time to stop her.

This place was like a brothel. Tianxia realized that she had misunderstood and rubbed her nose awkwardly.

"What's the situation here?"

"Humans have three spiritual souls and seven physical souls. The seven physical souls record the good and evil in your life. The three spiritual souls are divided into the heaven soul, the earth soul, and the human soul. The heaven soul goes to the heavenly path, the earth soul goes to hell, and the human soul wanders around the cemetery or family.

Even if someone dies here, what's left behind should be the human soul, not the heaven soul. "After saying this, Ghost Lantern took out his phone and made a call.

Judging from the name at the beginning, it was probably a call to his superior, "Lord Hell." However, there was no trace of respect in his tone. He calmly reported that there were many heaven souls in this prostitute's shop and asked the man to check if there were any heaven souls in hell. The waiter at the bar carefully glanced at Tianxia and Ghost Lantern. Tianxia had been looking around the shop, trying to see if there were any heaven souls, so he noticed the waiter's little movements. He hinted at Ghost Lantern, who was on the phone, and winked at him.

"I don't like men, so please don't wink at me," Ghost Lantern hung up the phone in his hand and said to Tianxia, who had been hinting at him.

"… I don't like men either!

I'm just asking you to pay attention if there are other people here. Your voice is a little loud. "Tianxia was almost choked by Ghost Lantern's words. He did not wink at him because he liked him.

"Those who don't know what's going on will think that I'm a delusional person."

Ghost Lantern casually glanced at the waiter, who was polishing the glass until it shone brightly, and silently noted something down.

"Are we going to sit here forever?"

"No, we should go … Did you bring money?

Hurry up and pay the bill. "Ghost Lantern stood up, tidied up his wrinkled clothes, and prepared to leave.

"… Don't you reimburse me for business trips in hell?

You still want me to pay the bill? "

"It's reimbursed. It's just that the population of hell has skyrocketed recently, so we should save as much as we can."

Tianxia could not win against Ghost Lantern in terms of eloquence. He had no choice but to pay the bill. Fortunately, the little monsters had given him a lot of money. Otherwise, he would not have been able to afford two glasses of wine that were so disgusting that he did not even want to touch it, but were so expensive that he could not even count the number of zeros.

"Aren't the two of you going to finish?"

The waiter, who had taken the money, looked at the two glasses of untouched wine and asked several times if they were sure that they were not going to leave after finishing them. This made Tianxia suspect that there was something unspeakable in the two glasses.

"No need, the wine doesn't taste to my taste. I didn't touch my glass. If you don't mind, I'll treat you."

Tianxia's words made the waiter's eyes light up. It seemed that he was just making sure that the two of them were not going to drink. The taste of the wine should be quite popular, so it was a pity that the two of them did not touch it at all.

"Thank you, please come back again."

As soon as Ghost Lantern left, he went straight to the department store not far away and bought a bottle of mouthwash.

"What's wrong …"

"The thing in that glass of wine, the taste is quite unforgettable."

Tianxia did not touch it because he was not interested in modern mixed drinks. Seeing Ghost Lantern's expression, he was even more curious about what was in it.

"I didn't touch the wine, but when I left, I saw the reaction of the person at the bar. It should be something very popular. Is there a problem with it?"

"There are three out of the seven souls in it, or more. It was crushed too much and mixed with the smell of several people. It's quite unpleasant."

Ghost Lantern, who had used up a bottle of mouthwash, took out the book that recorded the map of the area where the incident happened and used a red pen to draw a circle around the location of the brothel.

"Using souls to make wine? Even a raccoon who is proficient in this field wouldn't dare to do that.

But since it can use souls to make wine, it must have something to do with demons or something like that. "

"No, I didn't sense a trace of demon presence. Instead, the wine was full of human presence. This matter needs to be investigated to know what is going on."

"Then let's go to the next place."
