Chapter Twenty-Six: The Lord of the City
Jing Siqi watched the little yellow-skinned Momo leave with a sigh on his face.
"This little monster is really good at picking soft pinchs, but fortunately, he still has a conscience."
Jing Siqi looked at my palm and said that Huangpizi is the most important kindness, if you help him, he will definitely reciprocate, and I also saved his life.
I pursed my lips, "I can't really watch you kill in front of me, can I?"
Jing Siqi didn't make a sound, and walked in front of me leisurely, walking steadily step by step.
I curiously followed him and asked him why he wasn't floating, and Meditation Qi said that he wanted to feel the pleasure of human walking.
I had a big head for a while.
After dealing with the affairs of Mengxue and Brother Feng, Jing Siqi and I went back to Xudu.
Bai Yu was dutiful in the small wooden building, like a big housekeeper.
That night, I went back to Bai Yu to buy a lot of dishes that I liked to eat, and kept serving me dishes at the dinner table to let me eat more.
"You've lost ...... weight"
As a result, Bai Yu's words were only halfway through, and Jing Siqi on the side snorted coldly, threw down the chicken leg that was put under his nose and smelled it, and looked at Bai Yu with a look of disdain.
"She's a rock, you can tell she's thin? After so many years, I've grown in mana! ”
Bai Yu was choked by Jing Si Qi's words, and I also gritted my teeth and turned my head to look at Jing Si Qi: "If you don't speak, will you die?"
Jing Si Qi raised his eyebrows, his long hair like ink swept across my face, and when his body turned, he floated directly out of the small wooden building, and his mouth made a mocking sound.
Only me and Bai Yu were left in the room, and Bai Yu still kept his head down and kept adding food to me.
Through the contact in the past few days, I know that Bai Yu is a person who is not good at words, he is very quiet, and he can be so quiet that people can't feel his presence.
It's still quite comfortable to be with him, anyway, it's much better than the noisy stinky ghost of Jing Siqi.
But it was too quiet, and I was a little embarrassed, so I had nothing to say to Bai Yu about the little yellow skin we met on the road.
Bai Yu's face was solemn after hearing this, "Huangpizi is a very special existence, that thing is very affectionate, and the hair it leaves in the palm of your hand is a mark, if it really has a creation device, then maybe it will really repay you in the future."
I listened to the beautiful thing in my heart, and I looked over and over with my right hand, and I couldn't see anything special, but I was still very happy, after all, it was a windfall.
Thinking of that white and tender little boy, I still can't accept that he is actually a yellow-skinned illusion.
I was eating happily, but the door of the small wooden building was suddenly pushed open, and when I looked up, I saw an old man with white hair.
He didn't look at me, but looked directly at Bai Yu: "Mr. Bai, do you know that there is a living corpse in this Xudu City?"
Bai Yu frowned and shook his head: "I haven't heard about the appearance of living corpses, is there any situation?" Sit down and talk to me about it. ”
The old man, who was called Yu Bo, nodded, and sat down on a small wooden bench beside him.
He seemed to notice me when he sat down, his lips slightly open as if he wanted to speak, and his hands on crutches trembled a little.
I looked at Bai Yu a little inexplicably, and saw Bai Yu glance at the old man: "Uncle Yu, this is my friend, Si Xu."
The old man nodded and accepted his emotions, and immediately became very polite: "Oh, it's the old man who is old, and he is dizzy and mistakes the girl for an old friend, and now it seems that he must have recognized the wrong person, but the girl is so kind, she must be a good-hearted child."
I nodded at the old man with some embarrassment, not knowing why he said that, and judging by the look on his face when he looked at me just now, it seemed that I must be very similar to an old man like him, otherwise he would not have confessed his mistake.
But now I was full of thoughts about the living corpse that the old man said, and then I put down my chopsticks and sat aside, wanting to hear what was going on with this living corpse.
The old man straightened his expression and looked at Bai Yu: "Last night, I heard a little ghost passing by, I originally thought that it was because the Midyear Festival was coming, and these lonely ghosts and wild ghosts would always go back to the yang world to see relatives and friends, so I didn't take it seriously."
"But after opening the city gate at night, I only heard a series of very heavy footsteps passing by my window, the sound was neat and uniform, very orderly, obviously not a lonely ghost, I thought there was a team of underworld passing by, so I curiously pushed open the window, and saw a row of people walking outside, they had no breath, their eyes were dull, obviously a group of corpses, but those corpses were all flexible limbs, I am afraid that someone is deliberately practicing Yin soldiers."
After listening to the old man's words, Bai Yu's face was also ugly.
He put his right hand on the table, his index finger lightly tapped on the tabletop, and the rhythmic sound resounded throughout the small wooden building, and I was a little upset when I listened.
From the moment this old man entered the small wooden building and talked about the living corpses, I had already thought of what happened in the cave that time.
Now that I've heard his description, this kind of scene is exactly what happened to me in that cave at the time, I'm afraid it's really the one-eyed dragon who started to behave again?
It seems that this bastard is still a thief after he ran away!
I hurriedly looked at Bai Yu: "I seem to know something about this, but I don't know if this thing was done by the same person, and do you remember the one-eyed man?"
Bai Yu listened and nodded.
Presumably he must have had an impression, because it was that time that I met Bai Yu.
I told Bai Yu everything that happened in the cave at that time.
Bai Yu lowered his head and pondered for a long time before looking at the old man and said, "Uncle Yu, block the gate of the city tonight, I want to see what they want to do when they come to this city."
Bai Yu was not angry and arrogant when he said this, and the bearing around him was very extraordinary at first glance.
I was stunned for a moment.
Speaking of which, we have known each other for so long, I never knew what Bai Yu did, but now that I saw him like this, I became curious for the first time.
What is the identity of this Bai Yu?
After Bai Yu finished explaining to Uncle Yu, Uncle Yu nodded solemnly, and then left the small wooden building.
Once again, there were just the two of us left in the room.
I looked at Bai Yu with my head tilted, and saw that his silver mask wanted to flicker in the candlelight, and I didn't know what his face was like under the mask.
Could it be that he is an ugly monster, so he wears a mask to cover up his shortcomings?
But looking at Bai Yu's beautiful eyes, the more I felt that she might be too handsome and didn't want me to see him, or maybe he might be a fugitive and cover his face to save his life......
I was thinking about it in my head, but I didn't have a clue for a while, and after thinking about it for a while, I mustered up the courage to look at Bai Yu: "Who are you?" Isn't this ghost town a scary place? Why should you live here? And Jing Siqi said that every inch of land is expensive, how can you have such a big house? And why does Yu Bo respect you so much? ”
Bai Yu listened to my words, and suddenly burst out laughing, this was the first time he had laughed out loud since I met him.
Knowing that he wasn't angry, I became even bolder: "What the hell are you doing?" Could it be that you are really the soil emperor of this capital city? ”
Bai Yu looked at me, his eyes shining.
I watched as he bent his eyes, and there was a smile in his beautiful eyes.
Just when I was waiting for Bai Yu to tell me his identity, Jing Siqi's voice suddenly came from outside the door: "He is not an ordinary person, he can call the wind and rain in this Xudu City, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the Emperor of the Earth, after all, he is the Lord of the Xudu City, right?" White City Lord? ”
I was so surprised that I almost couldn't close my mouth, it turned out that he was still a big man, this drunken city is a ghost town, he is the lord of this ghost city, could it be that he is the king of the underworld?
Thinking of this, I subconsciously got up and took a step back, if he is really the King of Hades, I am afraid that he is trying to capture me back to the underworld at this time, right?
Thinking of that time in the underworld, Jing Siqi and I not only made a big fuss in the underworld, but also knocked out the judge and escaped, thinking about it, this matter is a big trouble.
Bai Yu immediately turned his head to look at me when he saw my movements, and a trace of pain suddenly appeared in his eyes.
At this time, Jing Siqi had already floated to my side, and he looked at Bai Yu with a smug expression: "Why don't you dare to admit it?"
Bai Yu was silent, and only took a deep breath after a while, his tone full of guilt: "I didn't mean to hide it from you, and this small wooden building was originally a gift from me, don't think about it, just live in peace."
After listening to Bai Yu's words, my heart was still a little trembling, but when I saw Jing Si Qi beside me, I looked at Bai Yu with some peace of mind and stammered and asked him, "Then, are you the Hades King?" After all, this ghost town is all in your hands. ”
As soon as I asked, Bai Yu was stunned for a moment and then shook his head, and his voice finally became a little lighter: "How could I be such a cold-blooded and ruthless person who doesn't recognize my relatives?" Besides, in such a cold-blooded position, even if I am given it, I don't bother to sit on it. ”
"I think you're tight-skinned, right? What does it mean to be cold-blooded and ruthless? I think it's really too comfortable, I'm afraid you've forgotten that you were once defeated at the hands of Hades and trapped for 6,000 years, right? ”
Jing Siqi on the side suddenly exploded, and when he spoke, he had a gun and a stick, and even gritted his teeth like this.
But Bai Yu didn't pay attention to Jing Siqi at all, but looked at me, and his eyes bent again: "You live here with peace of mind, I will protect you."
"I see you're really tight!"
Jing Siqi gritted his teeth and finished speaking word by word, and the moon-white sword suddenly flashed out in his hand, and the phantom stabbed at Bai Yu.
I was startled, I didn't know what he was crazy about, but I saw Bai Yu take out his black whip and fight with Jing Siqi.
The two shadows, one black and one white, are inseparable, which really makes my head a little big.
