Volume 5: The Ghost Race Chapter 58: The Council of Hades

Just as the area of the human world was in a state of uproar by this sudden ghost disaster, there was also some movement on this side of the underworld, which had been silent for a long time, and all the high-ranking officials of the Netherworld were summoned by the King of the Earth to go to the Ghost Castle for an important meeting, which was also the first time in a long time.

In the castle of the Oni Realm, there is a large conference table, which retains the traditional carved appearance, and compared with the imagination in the Senluo Hall, there is less solemnity and more calm, and King Jizo sits in the center, presiding over the meeting.

This time, the lineup of participants is huge, in addition to the five ghost emperors around the king of the earth, the ten halls of the underworld, and the ten yin marshals of the underworld, as well as the Fengdu ghost city guard team led by Di Yu, Qiu Chen, Shen Di, and Yu Lei, the traditional factions and emerging factions of the underworld are all gathered together, in addition, there is another person who appears here, he is the Yin and Yang Walker - Zhong Kui.

His appearance represents the content of the meeting convened by the Jizo King this time, which is related to the ghost clan that appeared in the sky.

King Jizo looked at everyone and said, "I have summoned you here this time to tell you about the ~ghost clan~ that has appeared in the world, I don't know what you think about this!" ”

After hearing this, everyone did not show any surprised expressions, and seemed very calm, in fact, they had already known about such a high-profile thing of the ghost clan in the world, but the matter did not spread to the underworld, and now there was a new change in the underworld, so they did not move.

However, they are also curious about this so-called "ghost clan", according to their history of the ghost world that has been passed down for thousands of years, this ghost clan may only exist in their hearts, but it is a real occurrence.

Although this is the case, it does not mean that none of them know the origin of the ghost clan, compared to the King of Jizo, the Five Directions Ghost Emperor, and the Ten Hall Yama Kings, they more or less know some ancestral legends.

At this time, King Yama, as the head of the Ten Halls of Yama, took the lead in saying: "My lord, as far as I know, the ghost clan is a legendary declining ethnic group from the flood period, and it is said to be the ancestor of ghosts, but this is all tens of thousands of years ago, if it is really them, what is the purpose, why it has only appeared now, this is incomprehensible!" ”

King Jizo replied, "There is no way to investigate this question now, but Zhong Kui, the Yin and Yang Walker, has fought with the other party and knows their purpose, if it is true, then the situation will be very serious!" ”

After speaking, the king of Jizo gestured to Zhong Kui, Zhong Kui has not attended the meeting of the underworld for a long time, but the momentum is still the same, even in the face of so many high-level people in the underworld, the majesty is not inferior to the ten halls of the king of Hades.

He was still wearing the red tuxedo, slowly got up and made a more polite gesture, and said: "Everyone, I haven't participated in the memories for a long time, due to the seriousness of the situation, I also got straight to the point, I have fought with them face to face, the group of guys who call themselves the ghost clan, there are not many of them, but they have awakened some ancient evil ghosts for their use, the former eight ghost commanders and a group of ghost soldiers are now the army under the command of their ghost clan, and many evil ghosts and fierce spirits in the world, lonely souls and wild ghosts are also joining one after another, if my estimate is correct, They wanted to establish a force of demons in the human world;

And there is a place in the world that is similar to their city, if there is no accident, they will start to build their own ghost city there, all the Hades know that ghosts have always been managed by the Netherworld, and everyone knows that there is only one ghost city, that is, the ghost city of Fengdu, if they are not stopped from developing, the world and the underworld will fall into chaos! ”

As soon as Zhong Kui's words came out, King Yama and the rest of the people all looked solemn, and the two great gods, Shen Tu and Yu Lei, said disdainfully: "Zhong Kui, what you said is true, are these ghosts really so capable?" ”

Zhong Kui nodded and said: "Everyone, although my Zhong Kui is not the highest strength in the Yin and Yang worlds, but the days of subduing ghosts and eliminating demons are no less than everyone, and I am also very clear about my own ability, there is only one ghost in that group of ghost clans that makes me feel very tricky, he is also the leader of these ghost clans, after fighting with him, his strength has exceeded my expectations, if you have any objections to my words, you might as well go to the world to try it, you will know the truth!" ”

Zhong Kui knew that the two of them debuted earlier than him, and their strength was also quite powerful, but when they asked just now, they seemed to be questioning themselves, maybe the two of them had been sleeping for a long time and their personalities were relatively arrogant, but Zhong Kui would never grovel because of this.

After hearing this, Shen Tu and Yu Lei did not make a sound, but just looked at Zhong Kui with a strange gaze, and the King of Jizo said when he saw this: "Okay, let's stop here, I want to tell you what I think, as far as the current situation is concerned, although the ghost clan has not yet affected the order of the underworld, but if it continues to develop like this, it will also have an impact in the future, and it is very necessary for us, as the managers of the underworld, to understand this matter;

However, now that the matter is happening in the human world, the managers on the human side are dealing with it, and we can't interfere in a big way, so I want to send a small group of personnel to the human world to investigate, I don't know what you think? ”

In order to take into account the balance between the yin and yang worlds, the king of the earth can't let the underworld send a large number of people to the human world, which will add chaos to the already not very peaceful human world, and he is also very clear about the strength of those characters in the human world, and the way they solve it freely is only used as an assistance on this side of the underworld.

The Eastern Ghost Emperor said, "I don't know who the Lord plans to arrange?" After hearing this, the Southern Ghost Emperor continued: "Such a task is important, of course, it is up to the supreme ruler of the Netherworld, the Ten Halls of Yama, to be competent, right, King Yama!" ”

The Southern Ghost Emperor looked at King Yama as he spoke, and the implication was that this important task belonged to him, and after hearing this, King Yama did not open his mouth to agree, but said to King Jizo and the Ghost Emperor of the Five Directions uncharacteristically: "Your lords have entrusted the important task to the King of Yama of the Ten Palaces, and the King of Yama is very grateful, but Lord Jizo King said that he does not want to participate in the affairs of the world with great fanfare, I don't think it is appropriate for us to come forward?" ”

After hearing this, the Southern Ghost Emperor said a little angrily: "King Yama, you just don't want to go, right?" Zhong Kui, who was on the side, also felt that King Yama's answer this time was a bit unexpected, but for all major matters, the ten halls of King Yama are all the heads of horses, why would King Yama shirk today.

After hearing this, King Yama said slowly: "Lord Ghost Emperor, I don't mean that, what I want to say is that there are actually more suitable candidates here, recently the Fengdu Ghost City Protector has not been established for a long time, and it is famous in the underworld, the world does not know much about them, and it is most suitable for them to carry it out!" ”

When Di Yu and Qiu Chen heard this, they both knew very well the intentions of the Yama King, but they didn't say anything, after all, in the Yin Cao Difu Force, their positions were at most similar to the Ten Yin Shuai, so they didn't dare to respond directly to the Yama King.

King Jizo looked at King Yama meaningfully and said, "I see, the King of Yama of the Ten Halls also takes good care of the juniors, in this case, I don't know if everyone in the ghost city protection team has any opinions?" ”

When Di Yu heard this, he replied, "Our city guard team has no opinion, and everything is subject to the arrangement of the King of Jizo!" And the two great gods didn't care too much about the words of King Yama, and said: "The two of us haven't been to stretch our muscles for a long time, and it's rare to have this arrangement, so happy!" ”

"Since everyone has reached an agreement, then this task will be handed over to the ghost city protection team to deal with, I hope you can handle it carefully and don't make any mistakes!" King Jizo looked at them and said.

Di Yu, Qiu Chen, Shen Di, and Yu Lei all nodded their heads one after another, and at this time, Zhong Kui remembered something important and said: "Everyone, there is one more thing I want to tell you, that is about the leader of the ghost clan, he is attached to the body of a human being, and this person is..." Zhong Kui planned to tell Long Daoling.

However, at this moment, a ghost messenger walked in outside the door, interrupting Zhong Kui's words, and King Yama shouted: "There is an important meeting going on here, why do you come in casually, now the ghost almost has no rules at all!" ”

The ghost said in a panic: "Please apologize, I want the captain to report if I have something urgent!" Di Yu motioned for the ghost to come over, and the ghost bent over and quickly walked to Di Yu's side and said a few words.

Di Yu's expression also changed, and after the ghost retreated, Di Yu said to the King of Jizo: "My lord, something happened just now in the ghost city, there is a ghost who claims to be a yin and yang walker with more than a dozen ghosts at the pass, I don't know if it is the one you appointed?" ”

When Zhong Kui heard this, his eyes widened, if it was the Dragon Dao Spirit who came, then could it be the leader of the ghost lord, he looked very confused for a while, and then, he immediately said to the King of the Earth: "My lord, I want to leave the table temporarily, if it is the Dragon Dao Spirit who comes, then I have to figure out some things, because this is a matter of the ghost clan!" ”

When the King of Jizo heard this, he said, "Why do you say this, that young yin and yang walker is related to the ghost clan? ”

Zhong Kui continued: "I just wanted to talk about this question, the human body attached to the leader of the ghost clan in the human world is the Dragon Dao Spirit, and his original soul is missing, so I want to confirm it!" ”

When King Yama heard that it was related to the Dragon Dao Spirit, he said, "My lord, it seems that this Yin Yang Walker is involved in a lot of things!" ”

Zhong Kui also knew that the Ten Hall Yama King and the Ten Yin Shuai were very dissatisfied with this new Yin Yang Walker, after all, he had made a big fuss in the underworld and left a bad impression, so it was understandable that there was something in this statement.

King Jizo didn't answer King Yama, and said directly to everyone: "This is the end of today's meeting, the ghost city guard team is the main responsible for this incident, and the rest of you are going to go about your own affairs and dismiss the meeting!" ”

After the meeting was over, everyone was talking about something, and Zhong Kui was already thinking about the ghost city of Fengdu······

On the other side, more than 10 ghosts appeared in the ghost gate, led by a person and a ghost, they are Long Daoling and Canggui, Long Daoling came this time and was also inspired by the Canggui, Canggui listened to all the experiences of Long Daoling, and analyzed all the details, even Long Daoling forgot that he was once a Yin Yang Xing's identity, but the Yin Yang Ling was also deprived when he was stripped of his body, so he could only use a special method to come to the ghost world.

However, some of the ghost officials in the Ghost Gate Pass also recognized Long Dao Ling, so they reported the matter to the ghosts in the city, and now, they are all standing outside the Ghost Gate Pass and waiting silently·····
