Chapter Ninety-Nine: Return to the Ghost Realm
Shen Yichen touched my hair and said distressedly: "Now the only thing that can save you is the magic treasure jade soul of the ghost world, which is said to bring people back to life." I'm going to go back and find it, and I'm going to save you anyway! ”
"But now the ghost world is different from the past after all, and your uncle may not be able to tolerate you when you go back. What's more, your injuries have never healed, and you have been wearing down your cultivation for the past few years to save me. I don't worry about you going back! ”
I relied on Shen Yichen to disagree with him going back, but I knew that he had already made plans. No matter how much I try to persuade him, he won't really listen to me in this matter.
"Don't worry, An An, I will definitely come back well. And I want you to stay with me, and we grow old together. ”
Shen Yichen said as he put his arm around my shoulders as I felt the tears in his eyes fall into my hair.
"And when are you going to go?"
I knew I couldn't stop him, so I had to go with him.
"I'll leave early tomorrow morning."
Ming Yichen said, helping me to lie down.
I didn't expect him to be in such a hurry, but he must have been like this because of my body.
"By the way, An'an, there is one more thing." Ming Yichen looked a little embarrassed, but he had to say it.
"What's the matter?" I looked at Ming Yichen's somewhat pale face and asked.
"If I don't come back in a week, you can break my son's seal."
I was stunned, he was clearly the rhythm of explaining the aftermath!
"You can't do this! Even if I'm dead, I just want to see you at the last sight. What's more, you don't have to take this risk, since I have fallen into samsara. Even if I'm dead now, we'll see each other again soon. ”
I didn't expect the consequences to be so serious, but I knew I couldn't persuade him. So as soon as I finished speaking, I fainted again, not so much fainting, but rather using his mana to make me fall asleep.
Ming Yichen came out of the room, he lied. He had promised to leave tomorrow morning, but he decided to leave now, so he knocked on his son's door.
"Dad, what's the matter?"
Jing Sichen was still a little apprehensive when he looked at his father, this man had frightened him too much.
"I'm going to go to the ghost world, and now only the jade soul, a holy relic in the ghost world, can save your mother. You stay at home these days to take care of your mother, and if I don't come back in a week, your mother will help you break the seal. ”
After Ming Yichen finished speaking, he looked at his son, and Jing Sichen nodded hurriedly. He originally wanted to ask his father if he was in danger and if he wanted to accompany him himself.
But as soon as I looked up and saw a flower, my father was gone.
Ordinary people can't go to the ghost world, and even if they die, they can only enter reincarnation. And the nobles of the ghost world can't come to the human world casually, and usually only some people with high mana can still come to the human world with sealed mana. But it won't stay for a long time, so the two worlds have always lived in peace without interfering with each other.
Returning to the ghost realm is not a difficult task for Shen Yichen, but it is different if you want to enter the palace. I haven't come back for decades, and the ghost world has changed a lot.
In the past, the royal capital was full of people coming and going at any time, but now it is deserted and not even a single figure is gone.
It's just that the number of patrolling guards has increased a lot, and Ming Yichen encountered several groups not long after entering the city. Fortunately, although he is not as good as before, it is not a problem to drive a few more patrol soldiers.
Shen Yichen doesn't want to waste time, but he can't act impulsively. Although the current ghost king is his uncle, he is no different from the enemy, and even has a deeper hatred than ordinary enemies.
He has already been to Nan Mingyan's house, and the once glorious General's Mansion is no longer prosperous. All that was left was the ruined courtyard, the grass was overgrown, the crows were circling, and there was no one left.
He searched the entire General's Mansion but did not find the whereabouts of the Jade Soul. Now the only one with news of the Jade Soul is his uncle.
It is not an easy thing to enter the palace to steal things, not to mention that Ming Yichen does not know whether the jade soul is in the palace now. On top of that, he doesn't have much time left.
When I woke up, Shen Yichen was gone, and only my son was by my side. Shen Yichen said let me wait for him for a week, I believe that he will definitely make me hold on for a week or more.
"Mother, look who's coming to see you."
The son happily pulled Ouyang Yangyang in, Xiao Yangyang has grown up, but his personality has not changed, and he is still as eloquent as when he was a child.
I smiled and nodded, but didn't speak, not because I didn't want to say it, but because I wanted to save my strength and wait for Ming Yichen to come back.
On the first day, Ouyang Yangyang chatted with me, and I fainted three times.
The next day, Ming Yichen didn't come back, my son and Ouyang Yangyang chatted with me, and I fainted five times.
......
On the seventh day, Ming Yichen did not come back, and I didn't wake up in a daze until the evening. My son was right next to me, and I suddenly felt very good in my spirits.
"Your father hasn't come back yet?"
I looked around and asked expectantly.
My son shook his head, and I smiled.
I stood up and walked around the room to look at the lights outside the window. My son held me up, but didn't ask anything.
"Come out for a walk with me!"
I took my son's arm and went out together. Although the sky is a little dark, the small garden in front of the door is brightly lit. Under the grape trellis next to it, there is a swing that I specially asked Ming Yichen to make.
It's just that I've never sat down, and today I finally have the energy to try it.
The night is as cool as a wash, but it feels exceptionally refreshing. I thought to myself that this is probably the often said return to the light, and I don't know if I can see Ming Yichen again.
But thinking about our identity, although I fell into samsara, sooner or later I will still be reincarnated as a human being. I believe it won't be long before he finds me again, but it will take seventeen or eighteen years.
Besides, the memories of this life will also be forgotten, and I am still a little reluctant to think of this.
My son was holding me behind for fear that I would fall, so I sat for a while and said to my son, "Chenchen, come here." ”
As I spoke, I bit the middle finger of my right hand hard, and my son squatted in front of me, holding my leg, looking at me and asking, "Mom, what are you doing here?" ”
"I'll help you break the seal."
As I spoke, I spotted the blood of my middle finger on the center of Jing Sichen's eyebrows, which was the blood seal that Ming Yichen had specially given to his son. Only my blood can be unraveled, and today is the seventh day.
I don't know what happened to Shen Yichen now, but I know that as soon as Shen Yichen shows up in the ghost world, the new ghost king will send people to the human world to find trouble for himself and his son.
I don't know if I'll make it through today, but I can't risk my son. Unsealed him, even if it was found by the ghost world, he would be able to deal with it.
As soon as my son's seal was unsealed, I felt as if my strength had been drained all at once. Weakly fell towards my son, but fortunately, my son quickly helped me.
"Mom. How are you? ”
I heard my son call me again, but I didn't have the strength to get up or speak. He carried me back to the room, and as soon as I entered the door, I saw two dark figures standing in the room.
As soon as Jing Sichen entered the bedroom, he saw two black shadows standing in the room, fortunately, his seal had been unlocked, and it was easy to see that these two black shadows were not people, but ghost envoys from the ghost world.
As soon as he turned around and wanted to leave, the two black shadows surrounded him one after the other. Stretching out his hand to come and grab me, although my son has just broken the seal, he is the son of the ghost king after all.
The innate mana is not low, not to mention that his son's understanding is excellent. It's just that the incident happened suddenly, and he was still a little powerless.
At first, I was able to parry, but after a few rounds of fighting them, I felt more and more exhausted. His body is completely innate now, how can he beat the ghost envoy without cultivation.
Seeing that their mother's soul was snatched away by them but they couldn't do anything about it, they finally snatched a wisp of soul and sealed it in their mother's body.
He watched the two demon envoys disappear, but there was nothing he could do, and he fainted due to the sudden overcast.
I felt like I was back in the ghost world, the familiar palace, the familiar city walls. It's just that now he is caught between two ghost envoys, and he is completely incapacitated.
The two demon envoys scurried into a palace, threw me down, and bowed down to the throne that stood high.
"Wang Qi, we're back."
Wang Qi, I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard it. Isn't that the Underworld? But when I looked up, I saw a middle-aged man I didn't know, not very good-looking and with a gloomy face.
He looked at me maliciously, snorted and waved his hand to the left and right.
"Imprison her in the dungeon! Keep a strict watch and don't let her soul wander! Since you can escape from Ying Yichen, then use her instead. I want to see if he will come back to save his favorite concubine! ”
He said coldly, and when I heard him mention Ming Yichen, I immediately felt a lot more energetic. I just wanted to get up, and I was dragged away by two soldiers.
The eerie dungeon barely had any light, save for the green phosphorescence that shimmered on the walls. I thought to myself that I had heard it correctly, and that Shen Yichen had already gone back.
If that's the case, I'm relieved. After all, they are holding me to blackmail Shen Yichen, so I won't be in any danger for the time being.
I only hope that Ming Yichen will not be impulsive, go back to recuperate, and come back with his son. At that time, I believe that even if he wants to regain the throne, it is possible, after all, I am still quite confident in the strength of Ming Yichen.
When Ming Yichen first entered the palace, he was discovered by his uncle, and he knew that it would be difficult for him to escape. But he has never been a person who sits still, not to mention that he was once an invincible ghost king.
"Ming Yichen, originally this king thought that if you could stay in the world obediently. I won't bother with you, but you still have the courage to come back! ”
The Ghost King stood tall above, looking down at the Ming Yichen who was trapped in the middle.
"The jade soul can be in your hands?"
Ming Yichen looked at his uncle, and for him, his uncle didn't have a good impression of him at all. When his father died, a large part of the reason was inseparable from his uncle.
It's just that he was injured in a fight with Guang Shaoqing's master first, and coupled with the loss of mana, he was discovered as soon as he entered the palace.
