Chapter 70: Rumors
Those who were more daring possessed mortals and tried to walk over to see what was going on. The pink mist www.biquge.info Pen Fun Pavilion is still there, indicating that the tree is not dead. So what's wrong?
Obviously, the pink mist around the Ghost King Peach Tree is not just used to prevent ghosts, even if you walk in the flesh of a human, you will also lose your way. (It's slightly better than ghosts, though.) This powder mist is a highly poisonous thing to ghosts, and if you touch it, you will lose half your life if you don't die. )
In the earlier months, the ghost controlled the mortal body to "stray" into the fog and return the way it came. Therefore, it attracted a large number of "people" to explore the way. This angered the guy who was secretly manipulating the pink mist. During these three months, anyone who entered the fog had to starve for several days before they could get out.
In this way, it can be regarded as a warning to them for trespassing in the peach fog.
Because these ghosts come to rub a peach to eat every year, most of them also know that the spirit of the peach tree is very obedient. Therefore, I didn't dare to make a mistake, for fear that I wouldn't have peaches to eat in the future. And some ghosts are kind-hearted, thinking that the ghost king peach tree is sick, or something is wrong, and wants to see if there is anything they can do to help.
And when they heard that there were reckless ghosts trying to break in, they were terrified. Then he respectfully put the holy spring water and other things he had prepared, as well as even more rare treasures, into the mist and left on his own. These ghosts are very grateful to the Ghost King Peach Tree, after all, for so many years, they have been providing them with delicious and effective peaches.
The ghost king peach tree was not polite and accepted all these orders.
The failure of the peach harvest directly caused the ghost king peach to soar to an unimaginable price in the ghost market, and it was still priceless.
Its impact is so great that it is not even limited to ghosts. The price of ghost king peaches in Nawu City has increased thirty times. Nowadays, there is only a 30,000-year-old white ginseng ginseng, and perhaps a leaf of the legendary Demon Slaying Grass can compete with a ghost king peach in price.
As far as Ling Heng's father also vaguely heard that in recent years, there has been a big mess of ghosts. Ling Heng's father also paid a lot of money for this, he just got such a "Ghost King Peach" and secretly ate it alone.
The ghost king peach also has an effect on the living person, and after that person becomes a ghost, this effect is equivalent to the effect of the ghost eating the peach. (The origin of the name of the ghost king peach, that is, the ghost who eats this peach can have the power of the ghost king.) Of course, there is some exaggeration in this. Otherwise, it would be terrible to have more than 30 ghosts a year who became ghost kings because they ate peaches. )
Ling Heng's father, it stands to reason that if he eats the Ghost King Peach, he can't say that he will live a long life, but it is not a problem to die without illness. I don't know why, I went while still in middle age.
Those who have a heart, if they know that the old emperor has eaten the ghost king peach, they will definitely suspect the cause of the old emperor's death.
And the old emperor did a really tricky thing about changing the ghost king peach, except for the people involved in the transaction. And no one knew the ins and outs of what was going on. The guy who sold the ghost king peach to the old emperor should not have guessed that he was actually the emperor among mortals.
The trade of ghost king peaches is so hot that there is even a ghost clan that is about to decline and suddenly took out seven or eight treasured ghost king peaches, and then lived the life of a local tyrant again.
Of course, this is not the only case - there should be quite a lot of ghosts who resell ghost king peaches and "get rich" overnight, but there are not many of them: ghost king peaches can only be left for five years without spoiling, and most of the peaches in circulation today are newly obtained within five years.
This is also where the ghost king peach is distinguished from the ordinary peach. Take the rubbed peaches back, and after three days, the green-haired ones are definitely not ghost king peaches.
And the reason why the ghost of that tribe hides so many peaches is because the bear child, who is the most favored among the grandchildren, loves to eat ghost king peaches very much. These peaches were prepared for his 200-year-old "birthday": a birthday gift he asked for by name.
Obviously, he was not happy at all about this birthday, and he had been looking forward to it for a hundred years, but he didn't eat a single peach.
It is said that he made such a fuss that the old lady, a very old female ghost, could not sleep for several days, as if the bear child could not live without the ghost king Tao. The ghosts of that clan moved eastward and united with several other big families to exert pressure on Fang Qingyun, the Eastern Ghost Monarch.
First, the ghost king peach is available every year. Why hasn't it been in the past few years? You Fang Qingyun are responsible for this.
Second, why doesn't the ghost king peach tree bear fruit, but you don't know?
Third, how do you solve the problem that the ghost king peach tree no longer bears peaches? We give you three options. Either you give everyone a family of three ghost king peaches equivalent to the market value as compensation, or you let the ghost king peach tree re-bear peaches, or you don't have to be a ghost king.
Fang Qingyun was amused.
He had never seen such a brazen person in his life. Now that I've seen a lot of it, I feel like I've seen a lot of things for a long time.
He didn't even bother to pay attention to this group of people.
Besides, the position of the ghost king, he said it didn't count, these big families didn't count, and the people in the witch hall with the supervision role didn't count.
At present, there are three opinions on the failure of the ghost king peach.
First, the tree entered the trimming period. Just as a chicken does not lay eggs every day, so a peach tree does not produce peaches every year - it will die.
Second, the ghost king peach tree is sick. This tree may bear fruit again in the future, or it is possible that there will be no more ghost king peaches in the world.
Third, the Ghost King sent someone to the Ghost King Peach Tree to say that the Ghost King could represent all the ghosts. Therefore, ask the ghost king peach tree to give them the peaches and let them perform the task of distributing the peaches on their behalf. The peach tree has to send peaches every year, and it is really annoying, so I give the peaches to the ghost king.
The ghost king teamed up to swallow the ghost king peach. Those peach trees are sick and trimmed, they are all made up to deceive those who believe in the ghost king.
Obviously, the third type of rumor is the most ferocious.
Although, when the ghost monarchs saw it, they knew that it was the handiwork of Wutang.
If the Ghost Monarch is no longer enough to make all the ghosts clothe, then the people of the Wutang can break them down one by one and wipe out those ghosts.
The existence of the Ghost King, that is, the ghosts who rule in all directions, are in opposition to the Witch Hall.
But these demons are not easy to deal with. Fang Qingyun doesn't have any experience or capital to convince the public, so most of these ghosts of old families don't take him seriously.
It was as if Ling Li had lightly asked the four ghost monarchs to take care of the ghosts this time, and not let them appear in front of him.
It seems simple.
It's hard to actually operate! Any powerful ghost can be arrogant! Who will listen to you? Ling Li said that they were like driving sheep!
