Chapter 37: The ghost hunchback reminisces about the past
The whole hall was filled with the aura of slaughter, the ghost hunchback was frightened, Ouyang Zan's face was anxious mixed with hatred, there was not the slightest pity in his eyes, the ghost hunchback's heart was lost to the extreme, he felt at this moment that he had completely lost hope, maybe death was liberation!
Standing aside, imaginative, cranky Ouyang Yichen was also awakened by the terrifying aura in the hall, from yesterday to today, everything that happened quickly passed through his mind, an indescribable sadness and depression swept through his heart, stumbled forward a few steps, and looked at the hunchbacked old man standing below, who had taught himself for more than ten years, sad and wandering, his eyes were dull, as if he was dead, how he hoped that this old man was an ordinary hunchbacked old man, but it backfired.
"Now I can only sacrifice the ghost elder, the ghost elder's assassination, don't admit that it has anything to do with the city lord's mansion when you die, fortunately, the ghost old man is famous, saying that he was jealous of his appearance and started it, and it was also said that in the past, when the time comes, the city lord's mansion is at most a mistake to take in. β
The middle-aged man said ruthlessly, and glanced at the ghost hunchback with pity, his eyes showed a sense of abandonment, and seemed to encourage the ghost hunchback, so that he voluntarily took responsibility for the crime.
"Is that all there is? Is there no other way?"
Ouyang Zan asked bitterly, it's not that he is really reluctant to hunchback, if it really threatens his life, even if it is Mr. Wei in front of him, he can push it out without hesitation, the reason why he is so hesitant is because the ghost hunchback, as the guest secretary of the city lord's mansion, is the leader of all outsiders, if he really gives up, I am afraid that the guest secretary of the entire city lord's mansion will have opinions, even if he does not rebel, he has a pimple in his heart, which makes people feel uneasy, and looking at his son's eyes, he is also ruthless.
"Sacrificing the ghost old man is the best policy, but if the city lord is unwilling, he can only fight hard, and the victory of both sides will be five or five!"
How could a middle-aged man who was so shrewd not know what Ouyang Zan was worried about, but when it came to this point, there was something to give, and if he didn't pay, how could he have gains.
"The city lord and the gentleman don't have to be embarrassed, the old man is willing to sacrifice himself to complete the great cause of the city lord!"
The ghost hunchback standing at the bottom said righteously, he could feel that if he didn't express his position at this time, he might not die as he deserved, if he was loyal at this time, maybe he could still get what he wanted, and if he operated it properly, there might be a glimmer of life.
At this time, when it was really time to decide death, he couldn't let go, and there was a force struggling on the other side, supporting his mind and dominating his soul, as if he was fighting for the last trace of life.
"But ......"
Ouyang Zan saw despair in the ghost's hunchbacked eyes, and struggled, at a loss, looking directly at the hunchbacked old man below in embarrassment, and the words of abandonment were a little unspeakable.
"The city lord doesn't have to be embarrassed, the old man has long looked down on life and death, and now he has been abolished by the stinky girl, it is better to be alive than dead, and it is simply better to die, if you can still use this crippled body to become the city lord, Ling, where you die. β
The ghost hunched said sadly, remembering all the things in the past, and couldn't help but tears filled his eyes, and he spoke with tears.
I think that at the beginning, he was also a person with a name and a surname, Xiao Yanling was his name, what an atmospheric and high-grade name, but no one had ever called it, since he could remember, he had heard the hunchback old or the old hunchback, etc., which made people sad and resentful.
Only his mother called his name, it sounded so amiable, but the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, and when he could understand, he could also understand, but his mother passed away quietly, not giving him a chance to be flattered and grateful, he hated the sky, hated the injustice of the world, by chance, awakened the Xuan-level five-grade double ghost knife martial spirit, and by mistake learned the method of splitting and removing bones in an ancient cave, and at the same time got a prescription, named Mingshensan, which should have been a good opportunity to show his ambitions, but at the fork in the road of life, he went astray, and finally made people not ghosts and ghostsγ
When the ghost hunchback thought of the past, he couldn't help but shed tears rolling in his eyes, the man didn't flick his tears, but he didn't get to the sad place, he made too many mistakes in his life, and in the end, the bamboo basket was empty.
The ghost hunchback remembered the past, bloodthirsty as numb, he himself felt a little cruel, under the ghost knife back then, there were countless souls who died unjustly, even after retreating, he was still in the dead of night, often killing people and removing bones, and then throwing the flesh and blood into the Mochizuki Forest to feed the soul beasts, and throwing the white bones in the mass graves outside the city, dirty, dirty, and cruel.
At this time, there was a trace of remorse, full of guilt, but in a moment, the face was hideous again, the obscene and cruel gaze made it difficult to touch, and the monstrous bloody aura filled the entire hall, bursting murderous aura, pungent and dazzling, eroding people's souls.
At this moment, it makes people confused, I don't know whether I am repenting of my crimes, or resenting the world, in short, from the beginning of the compassion to the current extremely vicious, cruel and unkind.
"Bold!"
Ouyang Zan felt the cold murderous aura and ruthless and murderous irritability emanating from the ghost hunchback, stood up and shouted, and at the same time a yellow strong light emanated from his body, protecting Ouyang Yichen on the side, his fingers were a little in the air, and a yellow light was condensed from his fingertips, which crushed in the direction of the ghost hunchback, and the squeezed ghost hunchback trembled, and suddenly woke up, and quickly gathered the breath on his body, and stood in place extremely well-behaved, a blood color overflowed from his mouth, raised his left hand and wiped it, and then stopped moving.
"Speak a little bit of morality, don't say anything!"
The middle-aged man sitting on the chair was still as free and easy as ever, and did not change color because of this thirst for killing, but when he heard the ghost hunchback say the words "stinky girl", his face was slightly angry, and he looked at the trembling and trembling ghost standing below, and the extremely dishonest ghost hunchback said, after finishing speaking, he turned the fan in his hand in one direction, and glanced at Ouyang Zan who was glaring at the side.
"Now, where do we go next?"
Ouyang Zan warned the ghost hunchback, and then asked the detached middle-aged man again, but this time he did not sit down, but stood next to him like Ouyang Yichen, especially respectful, but showed the status of the middle-aged man in the City Lord's Mansion.
"It's better to be still than to be still, and wait and see what happens. β
The middle-aged man didn't change anything because Ouyang Zan was standing, he was still sitting on the chair, elegant, and stating his opinion.
"Sir, when you came back before, you asked you to check about the woman, there has been news, it is said that Lin Jingyun of the Lin family met in the Moon Forest, and brought back to Linyue City, the specific identity is not known, after the master and servant entered Linyue City, they bought the elixir pavilion on Qinglong Street, and later changed it to Qingyao Xuan, what exactly is it for, it has not been found out, on the surface, it should be related to the pill. β
Ouyang Zan explained in detail the news he got when he came in just now, and when he came back last night, the middle-aged man asked him to investigate Qingluan's origin.
In fact, he himself was also very curious, before the secret examination department investigated the Lin family in detail, it can be said that the ancestors of the Lin family have been repeatedly verified and checked by their people, and there is no information about these women, but at a critical moment, it suddenly appeared, disturbing his layout at that time.
He also wanted to know what kind of pervert was cultivated, at a young age, he was already the peak of the king's cultivation, and when he saw Qingluan before, he was sure that Qingluan's age was definitely not more than twenty years old.
"Oh, the things on the surface are the most untrustworthy, Qing Yaoxuan, let's visit later, and explore the truth!"
The middle-aged man nodded with satisfaction, got up and prepared to leave, as if he was going to visit Qingyaoxuan immediately, at least Ouyang Zan thought so, when he discussed the relationship between the defeat of the City Lord's Mansion before, he didn't see this old thing standing up, how much he cared, now a little girl, let him be distracted, and he doesn't know who is paying for him, I don't know what to do.
Ouyang Zan was extremely unbalanced in his heart, and secretly scolded himself, if he couldn't beat him, he would immediately take action, beating him for not being able to take care of himself, he was really bullying him too much, and he had a bad attitude towards him, and he was really angry that he didn't pay for his life.
"Where is the gentleman going?"
Ouyang Zan endured the emotions that were about to explode, forced a detour on the edge, breathed a long sigh of relief, and asked tremblingly.
"Wei went to Qingyaoxuan. β
The middle-aged man didn't hide it, he said a word as soon as he opened his mouth, and he said it so directly, it was as natural as going to his house.
"Mr. stayed, there was news that the three girls of Qingyaoxuan had left. β
Ouyang Zan stood aside and said deliberately, he just wanted to indirectly disgust this old thing, he was old, and he even thought about the little girl, others didn't know the true situation of this middle-aged man, he knew best, it was not much better than a ghost hunchback, but it was just a change of skin, what was there to be proud of.
