Chapter 105: The Knight and the Gold Coin

  The armored knight felt uneasy and said: "What do you want to do? Living person, don't do something foolish!"

  He Ming replied to him, then lightly jumped and sat on the back of the armored knight. His hands immediately ignited a faint flame like coal gas and patted it on the shoulder armor of the armored knight. He was suddenly furious, urged the skull horse to shake off He Ming, then circled around and rode his spear to stab at high speed.

  He Ming dodged the spear thrusts with extremely small movements, shaking his head and saying: "Too slow! Too slow!"

  The armored knight felt something was off, this living being was simply too powerful, he wasn't a match for him and was about to flee, He Ming sensed his thoughts and grabbed hold of his lance.

  The knight was very decisive, immediately abandoning his spear and urging the skeleton horse to flee wildly. The skeleton horse also felt He Ming's sinister gaze, its heart filled with terror, and it fled in sync with the knight's will.

  In the midst of their frantic escape, the knight happened to glance over and saw He Ming hanging from one side, who upon seeing him look over, even waved and said: "Buddy, give it some more effort?"

  The knight was stunned, reined in the skull horse and said: "You are a person from the world of the living, I am a person from the world of the dead. I seriously warn you, do not harm me, harming me is an illegal act. Will be wanted by the world of the dead, become a criminal."

  "Hehe, what a joke! A world for the dead? Do you mean to say that even after we die, there's still a world with its own rules and laws?"

  The knight let out a sigh of relief and said, "You're not an evil life form, that's good. As it happens, I'm from the world of the dead, a resident of the Seven Islands of the Dead. Hmm, I was thinking of finding something valuable to earn some money, didn't expect to see you. It's my first time seeing a living person appear in the world of the dead."

  He Ming turned his eyes and took out a human soul coin with two fingers, saying: "How much is this guy worth?"

  "Ah. Soul coins."

  The knight dismounted and removed his armor, and He Ming saw the dead man for the first time. He was extremely handsome, with a face that didn't differ much from a living person's, only paler, like someone who hadn't seen sunlight for a long time.

  The knight walked up quickly, about 1.9 meters tall, with a full face of expectation and said: "Are you going to give it to me? Thank you so much."

  "Is it expensive?" asked He Mingdao.

  "Yes, according to the living world's monetary system, it's equivalent to $10,000, but here, it's equal to four or five years' worth of income. The prices in the dead people's world are very low."

  The knight smiled and said, "Although I don't know where you got it from, but it's very valuable. The prosperity of the dead world is beyond your imagination. We won't die because we are already dead, but we also need money. In the dead world, if you have money, you can enjoy the treatment of an emperor."

  He Ming weighed the soul coin in his hand, the knight's gaze followed it, and then it flew towards him, did it belong to him now?!

  The knight immediately handed over a dog-eating excrement soul coin, and He Ming continued to take out another soul gold coin, saying: "You seem to be very familiar with the situation of our living world above? That is, you can understand the situation above at any time?"

  The knight nodded repeatedly and said, "The vastness of the world of the dead is beyond your imagination. It's not on this earth, but in another space that only the dead can enter. This is just the edge area. The technology of the world of the dead is also very advanced, but it has stayed in the era of cold weapons. Because hot weapons are not very effective, some powerful monsters don't care about them at all... You mention atomic weapons? Their power is not enough, and they're too much trouble to make. In the world of the dead, there are many more powerful weapons than that."

  The knight earned another Soul Coin for himself, his expression extremely excited.

  He Ming continued to take out another one and said: "Isn't this soul gold coin very evil? Why can it be used as hard currency? With such a large denomination, how do you guys make change?"

  The knight pulled out a wallet and showed it to He Ming, which contained credit cards and cash.

  He Ming took out the coins and turned them into his own, the knight was not at all surprised, and said: "The grandeur and prosperity of the world of the dead is beyond description. There are tens of billions of dead people alone. The soul coin has two characteristics, one is that we dead people love it very much, it is one of the most precious and hardest substances, which is beneficial to our dead bodies. Two, it can circulate everywhere, it is a super hard currency, all the dead people are crazy about it." "As for evil, I think you misunderstood, first of all, soul does not equal dead person. Using soul to cast soul coin, except for some evil monsters that are allowed to directly cast fresh souls, other human souls can only be cast after losing their lives, and it is also a way to preserve the memory of them."

  He Ming nodded and poked the skull horse with his mouth, saying: "Are you selling your horse? Look at me carrying so many things back, it's not easy. Sell it to me. Name a price."

  The skull horse approached the knight restlessly, and the knight stroked its skull, smiling bitterly: "It's my friend, I won't sell it. And I think you need to go back up there, right? So let me tell you a theory - at an altitude of 5,000 meters, the dead will feel uncomfortable, and when they reach the ground, they'll be on their last breath. Completely rotten, once exposed to sunlight, they'll turn to dust. This is something the dead can't resist. Similarly, if a living person descends into the world of the dead, unless he's an immortal being above... wait, are you an immortal being?!"

  He Ming rubbed his nose and said, "Right. Rarely seen?"

  The knight was shocked to the extreme, and after a long time, he said: "It's simply impossible. Because human bodies have settings. From primitive societies to modern nations, the body has never become extremely strong, only from a lifespan of over ten years old to seventy or eighty years old, and even so, it has reached its limit. There are no immortals at all. You may be the first one I've ever seen!

  He Ming shrugged and smiled slyly, "What good things are there in the world of the dead? Introduce me to them, I'll go back and forth between the two worlds and get rich! Can diamonds be traded? Will things from the world of the dead rot when they reach the surface?"

  "No, diamonds won't do. But how to put it, friend? Life in the world of the living is too short. You take precious things from the world of the dead and sell them up there - isn't that just taking money from the rich to subsidize the poor? Why not just enjoy it in the rich world directly? Death will come soon enough, and when it does, you can indulge all you want in the world of death. Because you're super wealthy."

  He Ming bitterly smiled: "I'm only 21?! I won't die even after a hundred years!"

  "You are the undying, time has no significance for you. But your family will soon die, and you need to live with them in the world of the dead. The world of the dead is actually very beautiful, indescribably beautiful, and you will soon fall in love with it."

  The knight laughed and said, "I am a person from the Middle Ages, often referred to as the Dark Ages in your history. I was a Holy Roman Empire man. I went to participate in the Crusades for God and died in battle with my beloved horse. I could have lived in heaven, but I soon discovered that this place suited me better. So I settled in the world of the dead and recently moved to the Seven Islands' capital of death. To make a living, I came here."

  "What! Is there really a paradise? Then why doesn't God proclaim miracles?"

  "Isn't this an interesting choice? Until you die, you come here, your soul becomes the most beautiful and strongest moment, and then it's preserved forever. Only then do you realize how wonderful life is. Only then do you realize how merciful God is? Or how respectful those great gods are of your choices? Isn't that right? If divine miracles were directly revealed, this feeling would be lost. Therefore, in the mortal world under the gaze of the gods, only mortals and some obscure evil lives cannot change the world."

  He Ming shrugged and sighed with a bitter smile, saying: "In that case, those bastards who thought they could have fun in the world of the living came here, didn't they..."

  "Yes, they have lost their goodness. They will go to hell. The heavy sin in the soul will automatically fall into hell. Without being protected by the god of justice, they will be directly transformed into shiny soul coins by evil life, or be played with more painfully."

  The knight fondled the two fate soul gold coins and yearned for that one. He Ming threw it to him, took out a demon soul gold coin, and he suddenly widened his eyes, saying: "This one is worth more than ten human soul gold coins."

  He threw it at him, and he hastily caught it, saying: "Oh God, this is the largest sum of wealth I have ever seen, thank you!"

  He Ming laughed and said: "I also believe in God. Didn't God say that it's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter heaven? Why do you still love money so much?"

  The knight also burst out laughing and said, "You forgot from the start, the Bible says that birth is original sin. We have already died and proven our loyalty in the world of the living. So we got God's protection. In the world of the dead, God can show mighty miracles at any time."

  He Ming nodded and smiled: "No wonder God requires others not to commit suicide. Suicide is hellish. If you know that after death, there's such a wonderful world, who would still be alive? It's better for everyone to die together and go to the dead people's world to enjoy life."

  The knight thought for a moment and said, "In the world of the living, life flies by quickly, experiencing birth, growth, decay, and old age, and going through countless hardships, only then can one understand the preciousness of the world of the dead. This is an indispensable process. It's also why all religions don't directly reveal the truth. However, God sympathizes with us greatly, giving us many hints, as long as we don't do evil, we can obtain his protection."

  He Ming thought for a moment, then took out a Ghost King Soul Gold Coin. The knight immediately became paralyzed on the ground, and the skeleton horse also came over to fawn on He Ming in a ridiculous manner.

  He Ming was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and stuffed a Ghost King Soul Gold Coin into the horse's mouth. It immediately ran wildly back and forth, extremely excited.

  He Ming burst out laughing: "What's going on with you guys? I still want to ask a few more questions, and then this one will be yours."

  "What? Oh God. Oh God. Lord, forgive my greed. Lord..." The knight prayed rapidly.

  He Ming kicked the knight and said, "Do you want more?"

  "Come, come! Say it, great immortal one. Rich immortal one!"

  "Does President An Hua know? And why are you fluent in Chinese?"

  "He is a great man, we all know him, once he dies, he will become a saint, very great. He is the saint of the Huaxia nation. I have lived for too long, and slowly learning will naturally work. Chinese is one of the universal languages of the world of the dead."

  "How's Zhiling sister?"

  "A beautiful Chinese girl, right? From the entertainment circle, I've heard of her introduction, and I've also seen her reports and photos. You have all the entertainment that the dead world has, even more developed, with all information overloaded."

  "I can take the culture of the world of the dead and promote it up there, for example, the world of the dead?"

  "No way, this is a copyright infringement. The text you send out will automatically be affected by paranormal events, and then there's no after that."

  He Ming threw a Ghost King Soul Coin to the knight and said: "Have you heard of Cang Teacher?"

  "Sorry, she's too ugly. As a Westerner, I don't like watching Eastern movies." The knight's response left He Ming helpless.

  He Ming excitedly said: "Where's Abdominal Muscle Brother He Ming? I've heard he's extremely popular."

  "Sorry, I haven't been back to the city in a long time, I've never heard of this name." The knight touched the Ghost King's soul coin and almost fainted.

  He Ming thought for a moment and said: "Get me some high-tech stuff from the world of the dead, such as defensive nuclear missiles, interstellar warships."

  The knight let out a bitter laugh and raised his head to say, "Sir, this is impossible. I can't obtain such high-tech, being heavily guarded by extremely powerful lives, even you can't get it."

  "Can't even buy it with this?" He Ming took out a Dark Giant Soul Coin, the knight immediately froze in place, and the skull horse that was galloping wildly came back at high speed, knelt down at He Ming's feet, and fawned on him like a lapdog.

  "Darkness... gold, gold coins. God... God. I've never seen the real thing before." The knight's hands and feet trembled as he crawled over on his knees, gazing up at He Ming, no, gazing up at his Dark Soul Gold Coin.

  He Ming rolled the gold coin on his fingertips, and it accidentally or intentionally fell to the ground. The knight and the skeleton horse immediately rushed into a ball, and after a moment, the knight handed over the black dark demon soul gold coin that had been wiped clean with trembling hands.

  He Ming said in surprise: "I thought you were going to run away with it?"

  The knight let out a bitter laugh and said, "In the world of the dead, there is no crime. Because as soon as we commit a crime, we fall and become evil spirits. Our skin will turn black and start to rot..."

  He Ming didn't take the Dark Demon Soul Coin, opened his large backpack and said: "Look at all these things from the Dead World that I've managed to find people to buy from me. Think about it, are there any good things in the Living World? Help me get them and this Dark Demon Soul Coin is yours!"

  Everything in the big backpack is a treasure, and there's everything you need. The knight looked at it and wasn't excited at all. He sighed and said, "How can I explain this to you? The world of the living is just a transitional area, and all technology is chaotic and predetermined. For example, when our Western world entered the civilized era, it was also predetermined and influenced by extraterrestrial technology. So when you take the dead man's technology to the ground, your dead man's technology automatically rots away. Because the laws of both sides don't allow it."

  He Ming took out a diamond and the knight looked at it without much excitement, but He Ming was excitedly saying: "Wait, you said this diamond can be brought up?"

  "Yes, because in some underground worlds, diamonds are very abundant, so they can all be taken away. However, wearing diamonds up there is also meaningless, as it disrupts the diamond market."

  The knight looked at the contents of He Ming's backpack and said, "Lingyun City cigarettes, Juguai special brand? You also bought a thousand-year-old red wine? Dead man's fashion? Liu's high-end jewelry? Well, all can be taken up. But now, it's really not worth much. A Ghost King Soul Gold Coin can buy everything here."

  He Ming was shocked and exclaimed: "What a joke? Are you kidding me? Come here."

  He Ming caught him and started scanning, thinking he was another deceitful demon. Before long, the news came out.

  You found a God's Dead Knight. He is very powerful and is of Gold Light level.

  His characteristics are as follows.

  Crusader: He was a crusader before his death, died for God, and the Lord protects him.

  A just man: He is very just, don't discuss evil things with him.

  Conservative thinking: Although he lived for a long time and saw countless things, his thinking was still very conservative. After his wife died, the first thing she did was divorce him.

  The horse: After he died, there was still his horse, continuing to live on.

  Addicted to games: After his death, he became infatuated with video games and spent a lot of time playing medieval games. A crusader controlled the Crusaders' Eastern Expedition on the computer, which was truly wonderful.

  Obsessed with gold coins: a universal disease of the dead, no need to eat or consume, absolute social welfare, except for not issuing soul gold coins.

  He Ming let go of the knight, stroked his chin, and suddenly lit up in his eyes, asking: "How long will it take for me to get to your nearest Dead City?"

  The knight thought for a moment and said awkwardly: "Sir, I've been out for a long time, and the nearest city is very far away. You'll have to hurry over, it may take half a year."

  I'll top you one lung! He Ming stamped his foot in frustration, and threw the dark giant's gold coin to the knight, saying: "Farewell, the first dead person I've ever seen. Still a knight. Give it to you. Crusader warrior, find a new wife. By the way, I just killed a devil here, you seem not to fear devils?"

  The knight joyfully accepted the dark giant's soul coin, and without saying a word, he drew out his lance and shouted towards the sky: "The Lord's holy light!" A beam of holy light fell directly from the sky onto his body. The knight said: "See, demons can't harm me. I am protected by the Lord. As long as I don't go to some dangerous places, it'll be fine."

  He Ming looked at the holy light, shook his head and re-shouldered his backpack. This holy light became a miracle in the mortal world, but here it was as normal as eating and drinking. The knight was overjoyed to caress the Dark Giant's soul coin, which was as big as an egg, very thick, crystal clear. Inside, there was a solidified soul of a Dark Giant.

  He Ming thought for a moment, then took out that heavy sword and stuck it in the ground, saying: "Knight, take a look at my sword."

  "Ahh, God, Soul Steel Sword, Defender! Worth a city." The knight was shocked, but not attracted to the Dark Giant's Soul Coin. He Ming said in confusion: "Brother, this sword of mine is not even worth one Dark Giant's Soul Coin?"

  The knight concentrated on stroking the gold coins, while the skull horse was also holding its own ghost king soul gold coins. In a daze, it used its skull to knock against the dark giant gold coins, and then answered without lifting its head: "Of course it's worth it, of course it's worth it. But now, the world of the dead is a peaceful world. Such powerful weapons are only valuable in a war-torn world. If the world of the dead is the main world, then the world of war is the battlefield. Powerful weapons must be used on the battlefield, after all."

  The knight didn't even lift his head and said, "You'll understand when you're dead. It's actually quite stupid to fight for some kings' private desires. I'm living a good life in the world of the dead, forever. Why would I go to the world of war and destroy myself? Those people are all crazy and perverted. So, the Soul Steel Sword has no market in the world of the dead, especially since rich people just pretend to be cool."

  He Ming let out a wry smile, sheathed his heavy sword, and waved goodbye: "I'm off, buddy. Go back and take a good look at the news. Take a closer look at the abdominal muscles of He Ming. Because this day is worth remembering, you met the great He Ming with abdominal muscles."

  "Goodbye! Of course I remember you! Dark Giant Soul Coin! Come and enjoy the world of the dead soon!"

  He cursed me to die early, He Ming let out a bitter laugh and was about to immediately look around, then asked one last question: "Why are there only bones here?"

  The knight still smiled foolishly as he stroked the dark giant's soul coin, saying: "This is the Bone Ocean area. I'm not quite sure how it was formed. It's a normal phenomenon. Just like sunlight in the human world."

  He Ming nodded and waved goodbye to Gu De, quickly climbing up the mountain wall. Who would have thought that death was just the beginning? The world of the living is just a training ground after all?
