The closer I got to the fire, the more I realized that it was coming from a lantern under the wall of a house. The lantern was covered with white paper, and the fire inside flickered and flickered. There was a huge fruit tree on the side of the house, but I couldn't tell what fruit it was bearing from a distance.

However, Xie Jiuli recognized it, he followed closely behind Shi Fang, and said softly: "There are still jujube trees in this tomb keeper world?"

Shi Fang said: "This world is separated by humans and demons, not even the land. If you can grow in this life, you can grow here. ”

Xie Jiuli said "Ao" and didn't speak.

Shi Fang's eyes were attracted by the two people in front of the stone table, and it happened that the clouds dispersed, and the moonlight sprinkled down and the faces of those two people were clearly visible in front of him. A person's face was cold, angular, and his face like a knife and axe was full of an unapproachable aura, but the expression he showed at this moment was vivid and gentle. And to his surprise, there was another person, who looked like a young man, with delicate eyebrows and eyes, and a pheasant, as if he had not grown out.

I only heard one of them say: "You are a ghost emperor, why are you still playing a scoundrel?"

The young man's eyes drooped when he heard this, and his gaze fell on the stone table. He gently stroked the edge of the stone table, and the cool touch calmed his heart slightly. I only heard him say lightly: "What a dignified ghost emperor, but a sinner who has been exiled, and he will never be free." ”

Shi Fang's whole body subconsciously shook when he heard this, and his heart was shocked. Rao is himself, and he never thought that there would be a ghost emperor hidden on this Fengju Mountain! What kind of existence is the ghost emperor, or did he explain it to Xie Jiuli clearly, he naturally knows it very well. But the Ghost Emperor is the ruler of a soul, how could he leave his territory and appear on Fengju Mountain?

Xie Jiuli stood beside the party, and because he was close, he could clearly feel the trembling of the party. It's just that his hearing is not as good as one's, he only hears the sound of talking, but he doesn't actually hear what the two people are saying. Seeing that Shi Fang's body suddenly trembled, he was shocked at the moment, and everyone became nervous. "Laojun, what's wrong with you?"

Shi Fang raised his hand to his lips and motioned for Xie Jiuli not to speak. With the other hand, he pulled Xie Jiuli and squatted down, hiding behind the grass and staring closely at the two people on the edge of the stone table. Since it is a ghost emperor, it is no longer an existence that ordinary people can deal with. And these words came from the mouth of the young man, and even more concerned about it.

In fact, after such a while, Shi Fang had already figured it out, if this young man was really one of the Ghost Emperors, then the identity of this young man Shi Fang did not think about him at all except for the disappeared Northern Ghost Emperor Zhang Heng! And the person next to him, Shi Fang tried hard to recall from his mind, is there any particularly powerful person in this world who disappeared later? But the answer of the last thought told him that no.

He secretly wondered: "That person's identity is a mystery, maybe a hermit?"

At this moment, the young man said again: "If you are really curious, why don't you go down the mountain and inquire, maybe you can find the answer you want." ”

The man laughed and said, "How can the rumors you hear from other people's mouths compare to the rumors themselves?"

The boy snorted coldly, "I'm sorry about that, you're going to be disappointed." ”

"Unexpectedly, I didn't expect you to tell me happily, so I wasn't disappointed. The man smiled disapprovingly, and said, "Yan Jun's methods are ruthless, this is a well-known thing in the world. And you have allowed your demons to slaughter a city, and you have almost turned the entire north into a no-man's land. This kind of great sin is just banished, which shows that Yan Jun is not an ordinary defender of you. ”

The boy fell silent, not speaking.

The man said, "There are many rumors about you, although the world says that you are cruel and ruthless. But when I saw that you were on this mountain, you did not have any ill relations with anyone, and when I saw you sitting on a tree eating dates, I was even more puzzled. He paused, raised his eyes to look directly at the young man, his eyes flickering with inquiry, "So I want to know why you want to slaughter the city with ghosts than why Yan Jun would be merciful enough to let you go?"

The boy's lips moved, and he finally swallowed back what he wanted to say. The person in front of him is a water unicorn, and everyone in the world knows that he has an excellent character, and I'm afraid it's not that he has to snoop on other people's privacy, but it's just pure curiosity. This man was on the mountain, the only one willing to come and talk to him. He planted a date tree in his house and often came to his land to chat with him because he wanted to take care of it. Although he didn't care about it at first, after a long time, he also felt that it was better than staying alone in this Fengju Mountain for a lifetime.

It's just that why he slaughtered the city with ghosts and why he appeared on Fengju Mountain, how could these be made clear in one or two sentences?

The young man's eyebrows were lowered, and his eyes were empty and sad as he looked at the table. It's just that kind of sadness is faint, like a drop of ink melted in a large pool, and you won't notice it if you don't look carefully. And with the question and answer with that person, at this moment, he couldn't help but think of the last words that Yan Jun said to him.

At that time, Yan Jun suddenly arrived after the slaughter of the city, and he was not surprised. He just knelt down silently in front of him, his eyebrows lowered as he did now. Yan Jun had already seen everything, and he didn't need him to say anything. And self-justification, he doesn't need it.

He only needs one result, one whatever it may be.

"Zhang Heng, the Ghost Emperor is your lifelong responsibility, and you can't change people unless you die. You have served as the Ghost Emperor for many years, and you have been conscientious and conscientious in your duties. Therefore, I don't want you to die, but this world can't tolerate you anymore! If you can find a place to stay, I will no longer pursue you, and you are still the only northern ghost emperor in this world. ”

He knelt in front of Yan Jun, and his whole person looked depressed and lifeless. He was waiting for Yan Jun to deal with him, but he didn't expect to wait for such words. So the whole person was stunned, and he asked, "Yan Jun, why are you doing this?"

"......," and Yan Jun replied that he was only silent.

The meaning of silence has never been understood by Zhang Heng so far. It's just that he understands that if he kills someone, maybe no one will feel anything, after all, it is the Ghost Emperor who is losing his temper. But it is different to connive at the evil ghosts to slaughter the city, because the evil spirits in the world are in his hands! This kind of great crime, even he himself knows that it is inevitable.

However, Yan Jun never spoke to him again, and then disappeared in front of him. It seems that he has never come, and Fang Cai's words do not come from his mouth. Even if Zhang Heng is bent on death, he has a chance to live at this moment, and he doesn't want to really die in the end. So after that, he went up to Fengju Mountain and disappeared in front of the world.

Just like every time in the past, Yan Junyun's words counted. He still controls the soul of the north, and he is still the ghost emperor of the north. It's just that the world doesn't know where he went.
