Chapter 53 053 The Monarch's Conspiracy
Because of Bai Simu's love words, the flush in Peng Yi's ears didn't subside for a long time, but he still pretended to be nonchalant and walked in the ghost city.
They are here to investigate the Ghost Realm's participation in the demon clan's riot. By the way, let's find out who the person who killed Mingyao was?
Originally, I thought that seeing the ghost king would give me an answer, but now it seems that this retreating ghost king has almost closed his territory.
Peng Yi crossed his arms and walked around the ghost market, feeling quite bored.
"I don't know how big this ghost land is. It's dark and full of will-o'-the-wisps."
The gloomy will-o'-the-wisps were jumping around, one cluster after another, quite scary.
If there were any living people who broke in, they would be frightened and turned into wandering spirits.
Bai Simu was very indifferent, and said softly: "Wait a little longer."
Peng Yi didn't think about it for a while, and understood what he was talking about, but soon, when a line of more than a hundred ghost servants in armor passed by, he understood.
What Bai Simu said was waiting for the civil war of the ghost clan, to be precise, the sanction of the ghost king.
"The ghost king is not a vegetarian. When he first created the ghost realm, he openly challenged the underworld and robbed people in public. The four great generals of the underworld, even 36 envoys, couldn't handle him. Think? The eighth general of the ghost realm probably forgot. "
Seeing the appearance of inspiring teachers and mobilizing the crowd, Peng Yi became interested again.
Watching dramas has always been his favorite thing to do, so it would be boring not to follow along with such a lively scene.
However, just after taking two or three steps, Bai Simu suddenly grabbed his arm.
"Wait, there is movement in Asgard."
Peng Yi felt a little regretful, but compared to this excitement, the matter of Xing Dan was more important.
Bai Simu used a trick to conceal all the breath of life in his body, and then pulled Peng Yi to hide among the ghosts.
The two found a place where no one was there, and released the transparent butterfly used to monitor Xing Dan.
This butterfly is a medium, and this one is a pair with the one kept in the Asgard Palace. Through this butterfly, one can see the scene of the Asgard Palace by applying spells.
But in the Immortal Palace at this time, the gentle and jade-like Monarch of the Immortal Palace actually had a gloomy face, and his eyes were unusually fierce and distorted.
He paced back and forth irritablely, and couldn't help scolding: "Didn't you say that everything is under your control?"
In this hall, a man wrapped in a black robe was facing his back, and a rough voice came from under the robe: "Who knew that the ghost king would leave the customs at this time. The trap has been set."
Xing Dan's complexion became more gloomy, and his voice was even more frightening: "It's hard to set a trap in the ghost realm, and everything is abolished just because the ghost king has left the customs. What use do I need you for?"
As soon as these words came out, Bai Simu and Peng Yi fell silent.
The man in the black hat turned around. He didn't see him, but there was a pure black fox hanging on his chest. It was a fox that had bitten Pengyi in Shangyi City.
This black-robed man must have been the tiger demon who escaped from the demon tribe that day.
"Don't forget, we are a cooperative relationship, Xianjun, if you let other people know what you look like, how long can you sit in the position of Lord of the Immortal Palace?"
Xing Dan's face suddenly became even uglier, his lips were tightened, suppressing his great anger.
Peng Yi hooked his lips: "I once thought that you, the monarch, are not a good thing. I didn't expect to be so deep in the city."
Bai Simu seemed to remember something, and said in a low voice, "That day in Yaozu, Mingyao's Ten Thousand Snake Cave, he was the one who killed him."
"Not only killed him, but also escaped in front of you and me. Such an ability should have been thought of long ago."
Looking at the two people who seemed to be quiet in the picture, Peng Yi immediately understood.
If it is said that it was Xing Dan's conspiracy from the very beginning, then when did he start playing this game of chess?
The breath around Bai Simu seemed to be a bit colder?
In the picture, the voice of the fairy servant came, and the black-robed tiger demon disappeared immediately when he heard the sound. Even Xing Dan's face changed instantly, and he returned to the usual smiling monarch? The man is not him.
As soon as Bai Simu put away the transparent butterfly, there was a murderous look in his eyes that had never been seen before.
Peng Yi touched his chin: "Although there are only a few words, the truth is clear enough. You said that we have made such a big circle, but in the end, we are being played around by people. How can we swallow this breath? "
After the words fell, Peng Yi's smiling eyes gradually deepened.
From Shangyi City to Yaozu, and then to today's ghost land, now that I think about it, all of these are probably Xing Dan's conspiracy.
The more Peng Yi thinks about it, the more he feels that this fairy is truly a city mansion.
If Bai Simu hadn't become suspicious and left such a butterfly in the fairy palace, it would have been a long time before he knew the truth behind it.
"Wood, the more I think about it, the more I feel that this position of monarch is really not something that ordinary people can sit on. Such scheming makes me feel like I can't help myself."
Bai Simu kept silent, wondering what? What?
Peng Yi pushed him with his elbow: "Why don't you speak? He's doing everything possible. To put it bluntly, he just wants to kill you and not let himself get a little fishy. Why is he so afraid of you, Lao Bai? Does Xing Dan have something in your hands?"
Otherwise, with Bai Simu's position as an immortal, he has protected the peace of the Immortal Palace for hundreds of years, and no one would do such a foolish thing to get rid of him secretly.
Unless, what kind of handle fell into the hands of Bai Simi?
Bai Simu shook his head, and then exhaled lightly.
"People's hearts are fickle."
Peng Yi thought about it. They spent a lot of time to enter the ghostland, but it turned out to be a trap designed by others, and he couldn't help laughing at himself: "I have never done such a stupid thing in my life. Things, being played by people like this, I told you to follow me back to the magic palace to eat, drink, and have fun. You have to worry about your troubles, and you care about the world, but the world...won't think about it except you , Bai Simi, is it worth it?"
Is it worth it?
I have worked so hard for the Immortal Palace for so many years. Is it worth it to take care of everything on myself?
Bai Simu reached out, grabbed Peng Yi, and pulled him out.
The originally gloomy ghostland is here? After the ghost attendant, it looks even darker, like the calm before the storm, and an unknown eruption is about to usher.
"Back then, when he fought with the Immortal Palace and became the Immortal Venerable, Xing Dan was not so old, but only a half-grown boy?"
Bai Simu's voice came from the darkness.
"The old lord? You are kind to my family. I promised to protect the Asgard Palace for a thousand years. Now? Counting now, the time has not yet come, but ah, Ah Yi, sometimes it is wrong to do too much."
Feeling exhausted like never before, Bai Simu felt a little imperceptibly weak even in his footsteps.
Peng Yi let go of his hand, and clasped the man's neck from behind: "I said you just think too much, so you frown all day long, with a cold face, since there is someone in the position of the monarch... If you don’t want to sit down, then just change to someone else.”
Bai Simu paused slightly: "Change someone?"
Peng Yi snorted coldly: "I killed Mingyao to frame you, colluded with the monster clan to crusade against you, secretly arranged for you, wanted to murder you in the ghost land, even if you didn't want to, I couldn't let him go. "
Bai Simu didn't speak, but his steps became firmer gradually.
Now that we have spied on Xing Dan's plan, there is no need to rush back to the Immortal Palace. Peng Yi and Bai Simu simply stayed in the ghostland for a few days, and watched the excitement of the ghostland by the way. .
But never thought? This ghost king is also an interesting person.
"You said that you have been in retreat for 30 years. If you don't ask about the ghost realm for 30 years, it's strange if others don't usurp the throne."
Peng Yi poured himself a glass of wine, which was from the Baisimu Palace that he looted.
The Ghost King frowned, looked at the wine in his glass, and asked, "Your wine?"
Peng Yi raised his eyes and asked doubtfully, "What? You want to have a drink? It's not impossible."
The ghost king seemed to hesitate for a while, and sent the cup over.
But before Peng Yi poured it over, Bai Simu had already snatched the porcelain vase, and said expressionlessly, "Let me do it."
The ghost king glanced at the two of them, drank a glass of wine, and said casually: "I think you two seem to be a little abnormal."
Peng Yi immediately looked at him, amused: "Abnormal?"
The Ghost King pondered for a moment, then said gently, "The soul is out of place."
As soon as these words came out, Peng Yi immediately raised his head and looked at him with burning eyes.
Bai Simu's hand holding the porcelain bottle paused, and then he also looked over at him.
The ghost king smiled slightly: "Look? I guessed it right, so if you are not Bai Ling Xianzun, you should be the devil master? Then he is you."
"It is rumored that Bai Ling Xianzun is cold and noble, and he is unsmiling. I thought the rumors were wrong, but now it seems that the rumors are true."
The Ghost King laughed loudly, and handed the cup to Bai Simu again: "Have another cup, and I'll tell you how to get it back."
Now Peng Yi didn't drink the wine anymore, he directly took the porcelain bottle from Bai Simu's hand, and put it in front of the ghost king with a bang: "This bottle of wine is for you."
Bai Simu's hand was empty, so he withdrew his hand, didn't look at the two of them, but looked at the eight corpses in the ghost hall.
These eight corpses were the corpses of the eight generals of the Ghost Realm. They should have been buried a long time ago, but now they were all dug out by the ghost king's messengers.
A lamp was burning next to the head of each corpse.
"Immortal Venerable seems quite interested in these corpses?"
The ghost king took the bottle of wine in a calm manner, followed Bai Simu's gaze to look at the corpse in the hall, and a ferocious smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.
Bai Simu: "In this way, they can all come back?"
The ghost king laughed loudly, stood up from his seat, walked down the steps, and passed through the eight well-preserved corpses that were almost indistinguishable from those in front of him.
"People in the ghost realm, lonely ghosts, can't be reincarnated, can't be reincarnated, and are trapped here for life after life. Who can bear this kind of lonely and boring life?"
"But there is a way to get out of the ghost world, and that is to find a substitute for myself."
It was the first time Peng Yi heard about it, but he was not in a hurry to ask about how to exchange bodies, and became interested in how to get out of the ghost world.
The ghost king walked through these corpses, his face darkened little by little: "Find a living person who is exactly the same as your birth date, and at the time of your death, cast a magic spell on your body. The souls of each other are exchanged, so that they can escape from the ghost realm."
Although what the ghost king said is simple, the first step is extremely difficult. How can it be so easy to find people with the same birth date in this world.
Looking at these two corpses, Peng Yi asked curiously, "What does that have to do with these two corpses?"
The ghost king's purple robe dragged across the ground, and the corners of his long and narrow eyes revealed an unusual red color, as if they were stained red by fresh blood.
"Because no matter what you change, you are the most attractive to yourself."
My body has a natural attraction to my soul.
Peng Yi: "In other words, you are summoning the souls of those eight people to return them to the ghost land."
Ghost King: "Wrong, I am not calling, it is they calling themselves."
The ghost king has been in seclusion for [-] years without asking about the affairs of the world, but he never expected that his eight generals would cover the sky with one hand, not to mention taking away his power, and even find a way out, trying to unite with the demon clan.
"If I'm not wrong, these idiots should be looking for something. Unfortunately, they won't be able to find it in this life."
Peng Yi was even more curious now: "What are you looking for?"
The ghost king hooked his fingers: "I see that you like your skin very much. If you let me kiss you, I will tell you how?"
Before he finished speaking, a gust of extremely strong wind mixed with extremely cold spiritual power rushed toward his face.
Bai Simu's face was gloomy, murderous aura burst out in his eyes, and a green sword was actually sacrificed in his hand.
He looked down at the ghost king who retreated dozens of steps because of this blow, and said two words coldly with his thin lips: "Dream."
