The King of Ghosts didn't expect that the little Taoist would cheat ghosts as soon as he woke up, so he quickly calmed down and stood there without speaking or moving. He was anxious just now and didn't think about it carefully. Now that he took a closer look, he frowned: "You... "

"What?" Wu Zhou's body is very comfortable now. I don't know what the spirit water given by the system is made of. It was cleared up.Wu Zhou was in a good mood. Seeing that a certain ghost was no longer as spooky as it used to be, on the contrary, it became more humane because of the worry he expressed earlier.

"The marks on your body that were injured by the spell before...why are they gone?" The ghost king was surprised, and his expression became serious.

"Huh?" Wu Zhou didn't expect the other party to find out, but just woke up too painful, even if he knew he would find out, he would still take it. He was just looking for a reason. Hearing this, he raised his lips and smiled: "My lord, can you see it? Do you think my body has returned to the state before I was injured?"

The King of Ghosts did not expect Wu Zhou to be so calm. At the beginning, the appearance of the other party and his existence could be seen, and even the only way to leave Xi Gui City was by following him. All this made him suspicious because of his appearance. .

But in the previous battle in the underground palace, the other party blocked the catastrophe for him without hesitation. At that time, he almost thought that the other party would lose his soul just like that. He wanted to have a body and return to the world to find out the truth of the year. He didn't want him to die in exchange for his life.Fortunately, in the end, because the charm on the jade coffin did not match his birthday, the other party was seriously injured and his soul was injured, but he was not in danger of life.

At this time, the master of the little Taoist priest came, and immediately beat his soul back into that body, and managed to bring it back.

The ghost king believed him, even though the other party was obviously hiding some things from him, but now that he was asked, it was more of worry than suspicion.

Wu Zhou naturally heard it, he was so sacrificing himself as a ghost, what's more, before he lost consciousness, he heard the voice of the system, and the reason why he could get the bottle of spiritual water was because of the male lead's treatment of him. Trust is obtained by being willing to let him get close.

In the blink of an eye, Wu Zhou had already figured out how to fool the ghost king, coughed lowly, and said in a deep and deep voice: "My lord, in fact, I dared to rush forward in the underground palace at that time because I knew I would not die. And One point, in fact, even my master doesn’t know that I am actually a blessed general bestowed by the gods. I was specially sent to save the prince from danger. I am blessed by the gods and I am immortal. You have seen it before. sharp?"

Wu Zhou could almost imagine that the ghost king was so moved when he rushed over righteously, right?

Wu Zhou was immersed in his own wit, he was such a nonsense, even if the ghost king didn't believe it, but he had indeed recovered now, but if he didn't believe it, he knew that he couldn't find out why, so he accepted it.Once he accepts this setting, it will be much easier for him to fool the other party to go to Beijing later.

The second task the system said was to help the male protagonist restore his human body. It was easy to say, but it was too difficult to turn a ghost into a human again.

I don't want to say whether it will be successful or not, but I have to go to the imperial city.

One, from what the Taoist dog said, I am afraid that this matter is [-]% related to the national teacher in the court; two, the ghost king's body is still in the imperial tomb, and if he wants to restore the other party to his human body, he must Get the body of King Chu first.It's just that I don't know what the physical body looks like now. Ten years have passed, and it has already turned into a pile of bones, right?

Thinking about that scene, and then raising his eyes to look at the handsome and tall man, Wu Zhou shivered in comparison, he couldn't think about it, he felt like he didn't want to do it anymore.

The only thing I can look forward to is to hope that what the former emperor said about the corpse of the king of Chu is not rotten is true, and so on, even if it is restored... I can barely watch it, it is better than a pile of skeletons.

After listening to Wu Zhou's nonsense, the ghost king obviously knew that he was talking nonsense, but looking at the cunning in the little Taoist's eyes, for some reason, he always remembered that he was about to be unable to hold on when he was in the underground palace. , thinking that it would be better to just let go and let the soul go away, but he was not reconciled, he was not reconciled, he was not reconciled to dying like this before he got the truth, and he was not reconciled to why his father had sealed his soul for eight years, not only Neither freedom nor reincarnation.

At this moment, the other party rushed over without hesitation. To him, it was shocking...and unbelievable. No one has ever been able to do this for him. Even those loyal ghost generals just obeyed. own order.

He didn't want the other party to die... and somehow he didn't want to make the other party sad, since he wanted himself to believe it, then he believed it.

So, the ghost king pondered for a moment, fixed his ghostly eyes on the young man, and nodded, "Very powerful."

It was obvious that the words were fooling, but the other party actually nodded his head in such a serious manner, which made Wu Zhou feel embarrassed. The ghost king suddenly became so reasonable, which made him not used to it.

Fortunately, the arrival of Daoist Yifeng and his younger brother broke Wu Zhou and the Ghost King's gaze. Before the Daoist Yifeng entered the room, the ghost's shadow flashed into the dark.

Daoist Yi Feng came in a hurry, came to the front, looked at the lively Wu Zhou, checked the pulse, and frowned deeply: "You..."

Wu Zhou knew that he couldn't hide it, so he thought about it a long time ago: "Master, have you recovered? I don't know why, maybe the elixir you gave me earlier, Master, has worked. This moment?" Wu Zhou opened his innocent eyes and looked at Daoist Yi Feng with a blank expression that I don't know anything.

Daoist Yi Feng was silent for a while, and sighed: "This is also your fate... It's good to be fine, but do you still feel any discomfort?"

Wu Zhou shook his head: "I'm all right now, but...Master, how did you escape? Do you know all about it?" He could tell from the obvious evasive action of the ghost king before, after all, the ghost king didn't let anyone in the past. Now that he is like this, I am afraid that the ghost king and the Taoist master Yifeng have met before, maybe his broken soul was also dragged back by the other party, and he was handed over to the master immediately.

But Wu Zhou didn't expect that things were even more unexpected than he thought. Before Master Yifeng could speak, the younger brother beside him yelled: "Brother Zhou, it's thanks to Master, who felt that the situation was wrong at the time. , take me to that place, when we just got there, we heard a scary ghost howling, and the wind was blowing, when we went in, we saw Brother Zhou, you looked like you went crazy... Will, will ..."

Wu Zhou looked at the silent Daoist Yifeng in surprise, didn't he let the master hide at that time?Why did Master go too?

Master Yi Feng didn't speak, Wu Zhou asked his junior: "What's wrong?"

The younger brother shivered when he thought of the scene at that time, "When we went there, I saw that you gave that Wucheng master and the Taoist beside him like crazy, with your bare hands..." Probably the scene was too bloody, The boy directly pulled his own head, clicked his head, stuck out his tongue and stared blankly. In fact, the scene was far more bloody, but the boy didn't dare to say it. Seeing that Brother Zhou believed it, he continued to whisper: "Later, the master just Tell me that's not you, there is something on your body..."

"What happened later?" So they are not in Xigui City now?Where is that?

"Later, Master immediately went to the destroyed jade coffin to gather up your destroyed soul that was about to disperse, put it back into your current body, and drew a spell to temporarily seal it inside. Because That thing is still in your body. Later, after we escaped from Xigui City, Xigui City was destroyed, booming...and turned into a pile of ruins. We are now in a prefecture far away from Xigui City, but I have already I have inquired about it, and all of them were sacrificed when the city lord of Chuanbao River City was catching ghosts..."

The younger brother babbled about the cause and effect, but Wu Zhou was surprised after listening to it. After all, in the memory of his predecessor, Daoist Yifeng didn't teach them anything at all.

Maybe he sealed his soul in that body so decisively and neatly at that time, besides the magic weapon he wore, there was also the half jade pendant given by the other party at that time, right?

Wu Zhou looked at Daoist Yifeng, who noticed his eyes raised, sighed, said nothing else, just patted his head: "Master already knows that the jade coffin is to store the soul of the king of Chu." Yes, the one who got on your body at that time should be the King of Chu."

Wu Zhou was very surprised. Could it be that the Taoist Master Yifeng kept hiding his clumsiness, so he...should have noticed something strange about himself, right?Daoist Yi Feng didn't reveal it, Wu Zhou heaved a sigh of relief, and suddenly bowed his hands in salute: "Thank you."

He didn't say anything else, but the meaning in the words was very clear. Daoist Yifeng looked at him, his eyes were red. After all, he had been an apprentice for so many years, and he was still sad that he knew it was gone. Daoist Yifeng's emotion was just After being exposed for a moment, he stood up and sighed: "He has a fate in his life, and he can't get over it... I just didn't expect it to be so soon. Let's have a good rest, and we'll talk about the future."

The younger brother listened at the side in a daze: "Master, Brother Zhou, what are you talking about?"

Daoist Yifeng took him out: "Don't bother your senior brother, follow me to draw a talisman on the next wall, your senior brother is not in good health, you have to learn to protect your senior brother from now on..."

The sound faded away as the door closed, and Wu Zhou's eyes were a little moved. If his previous guesses were correct, the Taoist Master Remaining Wind would have already arrived at the disaster in his previous life, but he didn't know exactly when it happened. , because I knew he couldn't hide, so I just carried it with me all these years, but didn't bother to let him learn those difficult spells. It was because the body and mind stored some very simple spells...

Wu Zhou didn't know what was going on in his heart. When he was in a trance, his eyes darkened. When he raised his eyes, he saw the ghost king standing in front of him at some point. He probably saw him keep his head down, thinking he was crying. At that time, he reflexively stretched out his hand to touch it, but his hand passed through his face, making Wu Zhou's skin cool, and he trembled inexplicably, and opened his eyes wide: "???" You just So to the savior?

The ghost king probably didn't expect it, he came back to his senses, and asked with a sullen face, "What do you mean by the blessing you said earlier?"

Wu Zhou's attention was attracted, he let out a low cough, and sure enough, he led the ghost king here, and continued to make nonsense: "This, my lord, you haven't thought about it, why haven't you been reincarnated after you died so well? It’s because your soul stayed in Xigui City and never left? And eight years ago, it was rumored that your body buried in the imperial mausoleum would not rot, don’t you think there is any connection between this?”

"What's the connection?" The ghost king raised his eyes, but his eyes were attracted by the light in the little Taoist's eyes. He had really thought about it when he was wandering in Xigui City and couldn't leave. At that time, the people of Xigui City hadn't moved out yet. The city is still very lively, and everyone respects him and regards him as a hero.

But later, as the city gradually became less peaceful, the attitudes of the people also changed little by little.

Those things were not done by him, but what came from Beijing was related to him. In the end, he could only return to the deserted city lord's mansion, and those ghost generals did not leave. The dead soldiers who gave him only listened to him, and they all died before him in that battle.Unexpectedly, after he died, their souls were stranded just like him.

Because of the existence of these ghost generals, he never doubted the reason why he was not reincarnated, but then things became more and more wrong, but before he could figure it out, after the underground palace was built, he and these ghost generals were killed sealed inside.

He had no doubts about his father, and he didn't notice for a while, so he was sealed for eight years like this.

So when I heard the little Taoist priest mention this at this time, the ghostly aura around him was quite gloomy, and I also thought of the rumors that were right and wrong after his death. Those rumors were obviously not good for him, and they were even slanderous. It never stopped.

Wu Zhou strikes while the iron is hot: "Of course it is related. My lord, think about it. The corpses of other people have rotted and turned into a pile of bones, but your corpse has not had any problems for two years. There must be something wrong with it. Of course, this may also be a problem. There are rumors, but there are no waves without wind, not to mention, it is said that the national teacher and all the officials accompanied me to see it. I am afraid that your body is still intact. And your soul has not been reincarnated in the past ten years. I never thought about it... Maybe you didn't really die, but someone did something to your body. Once you die, you can use this method to protect your body until the time comes. , you can return to the world?"

What Wu Zhou said was impassioned and well-founded. In fact, he had no idea in his heart. He was talking nonsense. To put it bluntly, he was brainwashing the King of Ghosts.

After all, he didn't know at all whether the ghost king's body had become a bone after eight years.

But even if he succeeds, he still has to find a way to make the hero alive. If the hero can't become the emperor, his mission will not be completed.

But whether it is not important now, what matters is what the ghost king thinks, as long as he believes, he will coax the ghost to go to the capital first, if the situation is not right, the ghost king's preconceived ideas have been washed away, and he can use it. Another excuse to fool.

As long as the goal is to become the emperor, he doesn't mind coaxing the ghost king.

The ghost king's eyes fell on the serious and serious appearance of the little Taoist priest, and the ghostly aura around him became stronger: Although he is a ghost, his ghost brain is still there. ?Who will do it for him?If he had such ability, would he have used it to die back then?

But the ghost king looked at the little Taoist priest looking forward to it, and was inexplicably blocked when he opened his mouth to say something. The heroic and fearless appearance of the little Taoist priest flashed across his mind. A little Taoist cares about it, so it's better to follow his wish. Now he can only be trapped in the ruins without the other party, and it doesn't matter.

As a result, the ghost king looked at Wu Zhou gradually less calmly, and nodded: "What you said... makes sense."

Wu Zhou narrowed his eyes: Then why did you pause?

But thinking about the ghost king's temperament, he wouldn't be unwilling to bite the bullet and nod, right?After all, no matter how you look at it, the ghost king doesn't seem to be able to obey people's ideas?Otherwise, he would be a Taoist priest with a ghost king as his attendant... It's really exciting to think about it.

But I can only think about it.

Wu Zhou continued to fool around: "So, my lord, do you know what we are going to do next?"

"Well, what should I do?" The ghost king looked at the curved corner of the young man's mouth, but unfortunately, there was no half of him in his beautiful pupils. He wondered if he was bewitched by the other party's previous words. He knew it was impossible, but he actually I was dazed for a while, thinking that if one day... he could really become a human being, could he be seen in the eyes of the other party, instead of being empty like now, as if this world... has never been... over his existence.

Wu Zhou resolutely said: "Go to the capital, and get back your body, my lord." After he finished speaking, he found that the ghost king's aura was enveloped in an atmosphere that made him unclear, and he was a little sad. He couldn't help but lower his voice. and softened a lot, "My lord, don't worry, although that national teacher is probably a bad national teacher, but with me and the master here, we will help you. Just think about it, Hongdi wants to drive you out of your wits." Now, instead of sitting still and waiting for death, it is better to make a move first, don't you think?"

Seeing the obvious worry in the young man's eyes, the ghost king hummed, and raised his hand, wanting to touch the little Taoist's eyes, but thought that he would only pass through his body, so he endured it and turned around to go to the corner.

With his temperament, he was more willing to stay with the little Taoist priest, but he thought of what the little Taoist priest's master said in his direction. When the other party was unconscious these days, he formed a habit and hid far away. of.

At the beginning, what the Taoist said was: too much yin energy in a ghost will consume the yang energy in a living person, resulting in a short life.

At that time, the little Taoist priest was seriously injured and unconscious. Even though the ghost king wanted to stay with the little Taoist priest, he didn't dare to stay longer.Although the opponent's body has recovered now, but out of habit, the ghost king still avoids it.

Wu Zhou was stunned for a long time when he saw this scene, strange, this is in Xi Guicheng, the ghost king can't wait to see the sky pester him, now he finally knows the difference between men and women?The ghost king was indeed a ghost with broken sleeves before he was alive, right?No wonder I never heard that King Chu had a concubine, and he didn't even have a marriage contract. It stands to reason that as the most beloved prince of the late emperor, he should have had a marriage partner at that time.

……

Although the problem of the ghost king going to the capital has been solved, there is another problem to be faced at present, that is, the death of the Wu city master and the dog Taoist priest will soon spread to the capital.

At that time, Emperor Hong and the national teacher will definitely know, and I am afraid they will continue to send people over.When the system gave him this Magical Artifact, it said it would help him resist three fatal attacks. He thought it might not be necessary at the time, but it turned out that he was overthinking it.

Not to mention that the system has already known the following plot from this book, what if... there are two more blows in the future?

Wu Zhou thought for a while, and felt that relying on the system was better than relying on himself. If the magic weapon could not restrain the people sent by the Taoist priests, and if the ghost king died, his mission would also fail.

Now there is Daoist Master Remaining Wind. Previously, Daoist Master Remaining Feng knew that his previous life was short-lived. Since he could calculate it, the Taoism must be not shallow. His previous life was short-lived. He does not want to, and he is not afraid of suffering. He still has to assist the new emperor.

So, after a few days of rest and a complete recovery, Wu Zhou found Taoist Master Yifeng, dismissed his younger brother, and privately told him about his next trip to Beijing.

"...Master, although this request may be too much, I really have no other choice. Please teach me some spells. When I get outside Beijing, Master, you can leave first. I want... to be with the King of Chu... ..." advance and retreat together, help him restore his human body, and help him become king.

Wu Zhou didn't know how to say the last words, so he kept it a secret. He didn't want to hurt his predecessor's master and junior, so he only needed the other party to teach him for more than a month.

Daoist Yifeng just gave him a complicated look, "Since you want to go, then go. As for spells, you and I are destined, if you are willing to learn, then I... will teach you."

Wu Zhou didn't expect Taoist Yifeng to agree so readily, got up and stayed on the bed, and respectfully performed a ceremony of apprenticeship.

Daoist Yi Feng sighed, looked towards the corner, said nothing else, and left to make preparations.

Wu Zhou was in a great mood. When he closed the door, he turned around and found that the ghost king who had been hiding for a few days had reappeared, standing not far away, looking at him with a complicated expression in his scarlet ghost eyes, which was too weird , Seeing Wu Zhou's hairy body: "You, why are you staring at me like this?"

The ghost king was a ghost, and came to him: "You...do you have any thoughts about this king?"

Wu Zhou: "???" What the hell?

Before he could open his mouth, the Ghost King continued with a complicated expression: "You used your life to protect and save this king. You originally thought it was just because you understood righteousness, but now, for this king, you are willing to learn magic to help me. Restoration of human body... You and your master said that you will be with this king, but is it true?"

Wu Zhou thought of the phrase "I want to be with the King of Chu" he said to Master Yifeng earlier, and trembled all over, no, no, he still has something to say later, he wants to advance and retreat with him !Together!

But when he raised his head and met the ghost king's complicated and tangled eyes, he felt a headache: this is a big misunderstanding.
