Chapter 254: The Ghost Emperor's Invitation
In the end, in a helpless situation, we still went to visit the ghost mother's father, the ghost emperor. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
When we arrived at the gate of the Ghost Palace, before we could speak, Xiao Si, who was guarding the door, knew our intention, and said respectfully: "The Ghost Emperor has set up a banquet in the palace, and I will let the servants come to greet you, please move there."
Listening to the words of the gatekeeper, although there were doubts, I still chose to follow. After all, it's someone else's territory, and we still have something to ask for someone's sake, so it's better to settle down first.
Thinking like this, we walked along with the middle-aged man with a somewhat clumsy figure, with the high walls of the ghost palace behind him.
In other words, the internal structure of the ghost palace is not as dark as I originally thought, but a twilight palace with a majestic atmosphere. The reason why it is said to be "Twilight Palace" is because as soon as I entered the palace, I smelled the fragrance of peaches. As far as the eye can see, there are red walls and gold tiles all around, and it really feels a bit leisurely and twilight.
Soon, the middle-aged man led us to a palace. The plaque in front of the door reads "Banquet Palace", which is obviously a place dedicated to banqueting guests.
I was about to go to see the Ghost Emperor, I turned around and glanced at Mo Xuanyuan meaningfully, but Mo Xuanyuan looked back at me indistinctly, obviously not knowing the meaning in my eyes. The ghost girl on the side, nervously stirring the corners of her clothes, obviously has something worrying.
Without a word, we entered the temple, and the man looked around, but saw no other figure. So he first arranged for us to sit down, and then said to us: "Please forgive me, the Ghost Emperor is still here, and he must have left temporarily because of something." The minion will go and invite the Ghost Emperor, and please wait for a while. ”
I nodded slightly, and as the others left, I glanced at the other three. Feng Xue's face was flat, as if nothing had anything to do with her. Mo Xuanyuan thought with a look on his face, I think he might be thinking about where the Ghost Emperor went. The ghost girl was still a little nervous, but at this time she didn't stir the corners of her clothes, but buttoned the table.
Seeing this, Mo Xuanyuan asked her puzzled, "What's wrong with you?" This is your home, shouldn't you be so nervous?! ”
Seeing Mo Xuanyuan like this, the ghost girl's facial expression could be described as tangled, she forced a smile on her sad face, and asked him: "I'm fine, but there are some things, I don't know how to describe it to you."
"Say whatever you want." Mo Xuanyuan said, this upright child doesn't understand the sorrow of the ghost mother at all.
Seeing this, of course I couldn't ignore it, I looked at the two silently, and I said to Mo Xuanyuan faintly: "Xuanyuan, this is about to meet your future father-in-law, what is your mood now?"
My words can be described as a word to wake up the person in the dream, Mo Xuanyuan listened to my words, and immediately figured it out, and at the same time immediately understood the meaning of the ghost girl's expression. For a while, he opened his mouth, and finally didn't say anything, but the expression on his face became a little tangled.
I glanced back, and just in time to meet Feng Xue's gaze, I shrugged at her, looking like it wasn't my business. Seeing this, Feng Xue just bowed her head slightly, her eyes showing a helpless look. While waiting, the crowd remained silent.
Soon after, a voice interrupted the silence between us: "The Ghost Emperor has arrived."
Out of politeness and respect, we all got up and looked in the direction of the voice. How is it a bit like greeting the emperor? Thinking like this, I naturally thought that the Ghost Emperor was also an "Emperor", so I thought about another question: So would the Ghost Emperor wear an ancient dragon robe?
As I thought this, I looked to the door, and saw a man in a suit and leather shoes appear straight in front of us.
Although the man has some sideburns, and even wears an ancient crown on his head, and his long hair reaches to his waist, this does not affect his handsomeness in a suit at all.
"Sorry guys, it's late." As soon as the middle-aged voice came out, the ears instantly softened, which was even better than a softener. I have to say that the ghost girl's father has a good voice.
Speaking of the ghost girl, I saw a breeze passing by beside me, and the ghost girl was already standing in front of the ghost emperor. And as soon as the nervousness of Fang Cai was changed, the ghost girl's face was full of nostalgia and childlike coquettishness.
"Okay, okay, I know I miss my father, there are still guests now, let's have a good chat when we go back." The Ghost Emperor said comfortingly, symbolically patted the ghost girl's shoulder, and sat around her to the main seat.
The ghost girl's originally raised "ears" were instantly pulled down. In my opinion, this is obviously an incident between a daughter who does not know how to express herself, and a father who does not know how to express her emotions. Shook his head helplessly: This can only be solved by themselves, I have nothing to do.
Sitting back at the table, the Ghost Emperor didn't say a word about knowing that we were coming, and he didn't let us say what we were here for. Just talking to us about some of the things that we didn't get, and successfully changed everyone's conversation.
At the same time, the Ghost Emperor knew about Mo Xuanyuan and the Ghost Niang, and did not intervene in the criticism of the interaction between the two, but let the Ghost Niang plan for herself. Hearing such news, Mo Xuanyuan instantly let go of his uneasiness, and kindly drank three cups with the Ghost Emperor.
At the end of the feast, the sound of Mo Xuanyuan and the ghost girl falling over the table stopped. Looking at the two people who fell on the table, I was not too surprised, but a calm face, silently watching the Ghost Emperor put down the wine glass.
Feng Xue's defensive aura on the side was obvious, I looked back and gave her a reassuring look, and then turned to the Ghost Emperor and said, "Ghost Emperor, if you have something to say now, you can talk about it."
When the Ghost Emperor heard this, his face was not too surprised, but he smiled flatly, and he said to me: "It is worthy of being the leader of the Spirit Domain, and his observation power is not ordinary people, what I want to say is not in a hurry, but you can tell me how you found me first?"
I raised my glass and looked at it, half a glass of wine in the glass, which reflected a little light in the light. Looking at the glass, my voice came out, and I said, "Actually, I can see a little bit of a clue from the fact that you made us wait here. But I have to say that the ghost emperor's methods, ordinary people really can't notice, if it weren't for my natural sensitivity to fragrance, I'm afraid I would have ignored the medicinal fragrance you hid in the sandalwood. ”
"Although the medicinal fragrance in this sandalwood is not a problem if you look at it alone, but if it is mixed with this wine, it is a good drug, and I am also very fond of wine, and I secretly smelled your wine before you came." I said, turned his gaze to the Ghost Emperor, and gave an indescribable look, and the other party immediately understood what I meant, and hung his head with a smile. (To be continued.) )
