Chapter 164: Who's Coming

Shu Kui's mind was blank, and he called Bai Jingzhi one after another, and he always felt that he could vaguely see a slight fluctuation in his body.

"Don't waste your efforts, you're already dead." Jin Yi untied the ban on Shu Kui's body and sat on the sofa, with a look on his face that wanted to smile or not.

Shu Kui turned his head to look at him, his expression blank.

Jin Yi called a guard and ordered Bai Jingzhi's body to be taken away and burned.

At this moment, a faint layer of smoke rose from Bai Jingzhi's body.

When Shu Kui saw it, he was a little puzzled for a while, and he didn't know what it was.

Jin Yi also saw it, and with a move of his hand, the smoke curled into his palm, slowly condensing into the appearance of a creeping mouse.

"Lord White!" Shu Kui thought that Bai Jingzhi was still saved.

"It's a soul, I can't hear it." Jin Yi said faintly, "As a reward for your obedient words just now, I will give you a chance to make a choice for him - I can let him go, or I can let him go in ashes." ”

"Let it go." Shu Kui uttered these two words completely without thinking.

Jin Yi smiled slightly and raised his hand into the air.

"Wait." Shu Kui suddenly felt uneasy.

Jin Yi was not in a hurry, put down his hand and looked at her.

"If you let him go, where will he go?" Shu Kui thought, there seemed to be something wrong.

Jin Yi didn't answer, and smiled meaningfully.

"Will he go to the Forest of the Sunken? What about the ghost who came to pick him up? Shu Kui turned his head and looked around.

Jin Yi raised his chin towards the door.

Shu Kui turned his gaze and saw a skinny ghost in black.

Jin Yi nodded slightly at the ghost as a greeting, and then asked Shu Kui, "How is it?" Have you decided? ”

"Will Lord Bai go to the Sunken Forest?" Shu Kui wants a clear answer.

"I don't know." Jin Yi glanced at Bai Jingzhi's corpse, "It's up to him to see if he wants to go." ”

As he spoke, the big mouse's eyes slowly opened, staring at Jin Yi's face.

Jin Yi noticed it and pulled the corners of his mouth: "Hate me, you are unwilling to follow like this, you want revenge, don't you?" ”

Hearing this, Shu Kui "chuckled" in his heart.

The rat remained motionless, and the white smoke around its body gradually turned gray and darkened.

"Lord Bai, follow the ghost to the ghost gate, don't stay in the Sinking Forest, otherwise, you will never be able to live beyond the dead." Shu Kui was anxious.

"He can't hear it." Jin Yi patiently reminded again.

Shu Kui glared at Jin Yi and gritted his teeth with hatred: "What do you want?" ”

Jin Yi shrugged: "It's not what I want, it's what you want." ”

Shu Kui looked at him, looked at Bai Jingzhi's soul, and then looked at the ghost who was always standing at the door, with a stern face, and his heart was extremely confused.

Bai Jingzhi was tortured to death, of course he would hate and be unwilling, if Jin Yi let him go with the ghosts, he would definitely become another resentful spirit in the sinking forest. Shu Kui had seen the appearance of those resentful spirits, and what Rong Shu said about their final outcome was still clearly remembered.

However, if Jin Yi wants to disperse Bai Jingzhi's soul now, Shu Kui really can't say it. Bai Jingzhi was timid and submissive on the surface, but his loyalty to Ling Jiuchuan was not adulterated at all, and he never harmed anyone.

"You guys want to chat, give me the soul first and then talk, I'm busy, I can't delay any longer." In the midst of his hesitation, the oni spoke.

"Could you please not let him into the Fallen Forest?" Shu Kui held on to a glimmer of hope, thinking that maybe the ghost would be willing to help.

"I can't." The ghost cha refused without thinking, "I just take him to the Netherworld, whether he can enter the ghost gate or not, it's his own business." As I said, I'm too busy to worry about that. ”

Shu Kui was angry, anxious and sad, he raised his voice without giving up, and called Bai Jingzhi a few more times, seeing that he was completely indifferent, and finally lost hope completely.

The ghost also entered the room, stretched out his hand like a chicken claw, and grabbed Bai Jingzhi's neck.

Seeing this, Shu Kui immediately opened his arms and stood in front of Bai Jing.

The ghost is quite impatient: "Don't think I dare not do it to you. If you hinder me from carrying out my official duties, even if you go to the Ten Palaces and Yamas, you will not be able to take advantage of it. ”

Shu Kui didn't know what to do nowβ€”she couldn't watch Bai Jingzhi's soul being taken away by the ghost, and she didn't want Bai Jingzhi's soul to fly out of her mouthβ€”she was conflicted and entangled.

The ghost cha didn't want to wait any longer, frowned, grabbed Shu Kui's wrist, pulled it, and shook it.

Shu Kui was immediately thrown into the air by a strong force, involuntarily turned in a semicircle, and then sat on the ground with his butt.

Jin Yi looked at this qiΔ“ without any movement or word.

Shu Kui saw that Bai Jingzhi's soul was about to go to the hands of the ghost, so he was busy enduring the severe pain in the tail vertebrae, struggled to stand up, and pulled the hem of the ghost's clothes.

The ghost didn't look back, only moved slightly, dodged Shu Kui's hand, and at the same time took Bai Jingzhi's soul from Jin Yi's hand and walked out.

"Elder Jin, kill him!" Shu Kui became more and more burning.

"Kill him? The underworld will come to me for trouble. Jin Yi pretended not to understand.

"Nope." Shu Kui choked up, no matter how reluctant he was, he had to say it after all, "Kill Lord Bai, kill him, and let him be scattered." ”

These words made Jin Yi and the ghost cha both stunned.

"Have you thought about it?" Immediately after, Jin Yi laughed.

Shu Kui nodded, closed his eyes, and tears flowed down his cheeks.

She didn't see what happened next, only heard Jin Yi high-five twice, and the surroundings were quiet.

"Congratulations, your boss is completely gone, and you can be promoted." It didn't take long for Jin Yi's words to ring in his ears.

"You're too despicable, too shameless." Shu Kui tried his best to restrain himself so that he wouldn't tremble too much, "If you have the ability to fight with someone who is better than you, don't bully the weak here." ”

Jin Yi didn't answer, and he wasn't annoyed at all, he opened the secret room and pulled Shu Kui to the door: "Your Majesty, the riddler has corrected the law, what about this mortal, what should I do?" ”

Ling Jiuchuan stood with his back outward, silent, unable to see how he was feeling.

Jin Yi waited for a while, and saw that he didn't get a response, so he continued: "Your Majesty, please also hand over the country's ** things, otherwise it will ......"

"Otherwise?" Ling Jiuchuan interrupted him loudly, "She's the second, and the next is Yuxiao, right?" ”

Jin Yi smiled, it was a tacit acquiescence.

"Ling Jiuchuan, I'm not afraid of death, don't give him anything, let him be a king with an unjustified name, and be laughed at by everyone!" Shu Kui hated Jin Yi to death.

As soon as the words fell, there was a crisp sound of "pop", Shu Kui was slapped firmly, and a bright red palm print immediately appeared on his face.

Ling Jiuchuan turned around and looked at Jin Yi with a gloomy face.

Jin Yi also had a bad complexion, and looked at him for a moment.

After a long time, Ling Jiuchuan sighed indistinctly: "If you were given the ** thing of the country, would you let Shu Kui and Yuxiao go?" ”

"Yes." Jin Yi raised his chin slightly, "Find a good place for you, and marry whichever you want, or both." ”

This made Shu Kui very uncomfortable, but Ling Jiuchuan didn't react, only paused slightly, and said to Jin Yi: "Let me think about it." ”

Jin Yi was afraid that Ling Jiuchuan was delaying the army, so he didn't dare to agree lightly, but thinking about it again, now that the entire Ye City was under his control, Ling Jiuchuan couldn't drag it out.

"Okay." At this thought, he was a little relieved, "Two days." ”

Ling Jiuchuan turned his back and stopped talking.

Jin Yi closed the secret room and asked the guards to escort Shu Kui back to the room.

After everyone left, the door was locked, what happened before, scene by scene passed in front of Shu Kui's eyes, she seemed to finally react, Bai Jingzhi was tortured to death, after her own words, her soul was also scattered, from now on, there will be no more that slightly rickety figure in the Wanji Building, busy with buckets and rags.

Thinking about it, her tears became more and more, and it was not entirely sad because of Bai Jingzhi's death, but more of a kind of dazedness.

If Ling Jiuchuan follows Jin Yi, she will be under house arrest forever with Ling Jiuchuan; If Ling Jiuchuan resisted, she would die because of it. In short, no matter what, there is no going back to the world, never seeing her parents and sister again, let alone finding out the person who pretended to be her and figuring out the ins and outs of the whole thing.

Shu Kui is unwilling, she hasn't lived enough, but she is too small and weak, she can only be locked up here, like fish on a chopping board, waiting for the last knife to be cut off.

This deep feeling of powerlessness almost suffocated her, and also made her sobbing from a small cry to a cry of recklessness.

She cried for a while, rested for a while, and spent two days in a daze.

Unexpectedly, when the deadline came, no one came to open the door.

Shu Kui felt strange and didn't believe that Ling Jiuchuan would compromise, but for a while, he couldn't think of any other explanation.

In the evening, Kinlolo appeared.

Shu Kui didn't know why she came, so she only prayed silently not to bring bad news.

Jin Luoluo didn't speak, pulled up Shu Kui and left.

"Where are we going?" Shu Kui couldn't figure out whether she was friend or foe, and she resisted very much.

"Someone's barging in, quick, follow me." Jin Luoluo spoke quickly.

"Who?" Shu Kui was very vigilant and still did not move.

"I don't know, I just know that the strength is not weak." Jin Luoluo simply stopped, "I probably came here before dawn today, and I was found after several turns in Haocang Palace." ”

"Are you here to save Ling Jiuchuan?" Shu Kui's eyes lit up.

"I don't know." Jin Luoluo looked out of the door, "It's very chaotic in the palace now, quick, follow me." ”

"You're going to let me go?" Shu Kui will be skeptical.

Jin Luoluo was noncommittal, looked at Shu Kui's eyes and said, "Don't ask more, don't waste any more time, come with me, I'm not here to harm you." ”

Shu Kui looked at her solemnly, not like she was lying, and thought that she risked her life to help herself, and slowly, her guard was lowered, thinking that she was really just involuntary before, but now she saw the opportunity and her conscience found out.

"Hurry." Seeing that Shu Kui was silent, Jin Luoluo was so anxious that he stomped his feet, "When the people guarding you come back, none of us will be able to escape." ”
