Chapter 181 Hello, Hello? Are You There?
Under the sunlight, an exclamation mark appeared above Shi Bao's head.
The young man knelt on the ground: "Thanks to the grace of the gods, this unique wonder has given homeless ghosts a place to live, and it has also given more citizens the opportunity to learn knowledge and experience from ghosts."
This new wonder was built in Yancheng, and it soon attracted scattered ghosts.
They gathered in twos and threes and walked into the tower.
As long as they are in the tower, the ghosts will not sink into the sea of death and can retain their self for a long time.
Lu Yao estimated that there are about fifty ghosts living in the [Ghost Lighthouse] in Yancheng. In the lighthouse, the ghost's body is no longer illusory, and its appearance has become much clearer. But even so, ordinary people still can't see them.
Unlike humans, ghosts don't require much space itself, but they also have their own preferences.
Some like jars and choose a pottery jar as a place to live.
Some love reading books, and a certain book is their manor.
Some were fishermen in their lifetime, and they are obsessed with fishing and like to attach themselves to fishing rods.
Some love beauty and regard the exquisite robes hanging on the rack as their home.
…
All kinds of items were moved into the lighthouse.
It looked like a huge second-hand grocery store, with all kinds of items on display.
But in fact, these are the homes of ghosts.
Lu Yao locked his view on Shi Bao's head.
The young prophet entered the tower and walked along the spiral staircase to the top of the tower. There was a bonfire made of stones, but it was not lit.
Shi Bao faced the stone bonfire, and a dialog box appeared above his head.
"Dear Saniro ghosts, I am Shi Bao, the prophet of Yancheng."
"Excuse me, can you hear my voice?"
A green ghost fire suddenly rose in the bonfire.
Several dialog boxes popped up inside.
"I heard you. What's the matter?"
"Hey? Prophet, your voice sounds like a child. Are you really a prophet?"
"Hello, hello, hello? Are you there?"
"I can hear you. Can you hear me?"
"Make way. Hello, Prophet Shi Bao. I am Chapman, the mayor of Saniluo. I heard you clearly. The ghost lighthouse is very useful. Welcome the ghosts from your side to visit and play here."
An exclamation mark appeared on Shi Bao's head, and then turned into a smiley face.
Thoughts emerged above his head: "It seems that there is no problem. It is indeed very smooth. From now on, the connection with Saniluo will become very fast. This time, Yancheng is ahead of Yaocheng."
Lu Yao thought to himself that the people of Yancheng are indeed obsessed with the lighthouse.
The development of Yancheng is really tortuous.
After many twists and turns, the lighthouse was built and collapsed. After many years, it became the current ghost lighthouse, and it got a new direction from the ghost group.
It can be seen with the naked eye that the surrounding ghosts flocked to the lighthouse to settle down.
It is difficult to count how many dead people there are in the pixel world, but there is no doubt that this will be a very large group. Because villains will die one day, many dead people will become ghosts.
Lu Yao noticed that in a short period of time, the population of Yancheng has increased by 1,200 people.
Yancheng: 33,881
In the population details, the number of ghosts is 1,273.
On the other hand, the population of Yaocheng is about 35,000.
The population of the two cities is already extremely close.
According to the current trend, it will not be long before the population of Yancheng will surpass Yaocheng for the first time.
…
The establishment of [Ghost Lighthouse] has brought many changes to Yancheng.
The first is the birth of the ghost merchant group.
It has to be said that even after death, merchants are obsessed with profit. This is no longer a job, but a professional instinct and desire that controls them.
And because they are ghosts, they don’t need to eat or drink, they can better reduce costs and get more profits.
In the past, there were no ghosts on a large scale, and they had not appeared. Now that the number of ghosts in Yanchi has continued to increase, they immediately became active.
Unlike living people, ghosts do not need a lot of consumables, but they also have consumption needs.
For example, the most common one is to change their habitats. Just like ordinary citizens, if they have spare money, ghosts also want to change to better improved housing.
In addition, there are some rare special collections, such as urns customized by dwarves, underground coffins dug out by sandworms, and various corals and giant conches found by fishmen in the sea.
Ghosts trade differently from living people. They are natural sources of information.
Extraordinary life also needs to learn human language. Ghosts are the most suitable teachers. They are not easily hurt by extraordinary creatures, and most of them have rich human experience.
Because of their own secret existence, ghosts can easily go to various dangerous places, so they know and see much more than ordinary people.
The ghost lighthouse has become a place similar to a human tavern, where ghosts gather and communicate. Their external occupations are usually teachers, intelligence dealers and broadcasters.
Soon, this caused new troubles: too many ghosts made ordinary citizens feel uneasy.
The citizen council of Yancheng quickly passed a new bill called "Ghost Citizen Code of Conduct".
It gives several restrictions. The first is that ghosts are strictly prohibited from illegally breaking into other citizens' homes, harassing and disrupting city order. Once discovered, they will be severely punished and arrested.
As a secular city, Yancheng was the first to include ghost citizens in its jurisdiction.
Due to the existence of the [Ghost Lighthouse], Yancheng can maintain close contact with [Saniro]. Saniro has rich experience in managing ghost citizens, and Yancheng has learned a lot from him.
After a brief period of uneasiness, the people of Yancheng quickly accepted the existence of ghosts.
After all, they can't be seen at ordinary times.
But the main reason is not this.
Several brave pixel people have realized [psychic communication], obtained knowledge and tasks from the ghosts, and made a lot of money. Among them, two scholars have gained both fame and fortune and reaped the first wave of dividends.
The people of Yancheng have always been pragmatic.
Profitable things make them take immediate action! People often enter the lighthouse on the open day to try to meet ghost friends. Even if they can't see them, it's good luck to get familiar with them and see if there is any psychic communication.
Ghosts wandering in the outside world have come here one after another, which has further expanded the scale of ghosts in the city, and brought more opportunities and external information to the entire city.
The popularity of the [Old Museum] was quickly overshadowed by the [Ghost Lighthouse]. After all, the latter brought much more direct benefits.
From Lu Yao's God's perspective, the establishment of the lighthouse wonder brought an important opportunity to the city.
Connection.
Yancheng and Saniro, thousands of miles away, were connected.
Simply put, Yancheng has built a special ghost radio network. As long as there are ghost broadcasters, message transmission becomes accessible in an instant, which is crucial for both trade and communication.
Lu Yao turned his attention to Yaocheng.
Will Yaocheng join the ghost radio system?
Not long after, Yaocheng in the east also built a [Ghost Lighthouse].
The prophet Yaoshao was as steady and rational as ever.
So far, the three cities have further connected and exchanged what they have with each other through the power of ghosts.
The source behind this major change is the young prophet Shi Bao who just came out of the mountain.
...
Lu Yao confirmed that the three cities continued to move forward steadily, and then he turned his attention to the island overseas.
The overall environment is relatively stable, and now is the time to break through the first layer of the abyss.
Lu Yao is very interested in the cursed insects.
I don't know how strong they are, but it is said that they are very resistant to miracle damage.
Lu Yao pinched his fingers.
Then try to resist the 110,000-level faith bombardment.
