Chapter 57: The New Ghost King

Just in front of the Witch King's throne, the only remaining "Four Monarchs of the Ghost Mansion" quarreled over Xu Tianle's ultimate ownership, and the tiny poisonous snake bared its fangs at the back of Xu Tianle's neck. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the cave on the other side of the throne, Bai Suzheng was bored and jumped around on Xu Tianyang's body.

When the night pearl above his head dimmed, everyone, oh, and ghosts, or monsters, was stunned for a moment.

But then, the vast space was completely illuminated by a blinding silver light.

"Stop playing, let's go out and have a look."

Xia Beifeng, who was squatting on the ground, whistled at Bai Su, who was squatting on the ground, and slowly stood up.

He stretched out an arm so that Bai Su could jump on his shoulder, and then turned back to Ning Feng and raised his chin: "Be optimistic about Xu Tianyang, maybe it will be useful in a while." ”

With that, he strode around the steps below the throne of the witch god and returned to the front of the throne.

Xu Tianle was still sitting on the throne at this time, but there was an extra lamp burning with silver flames in his arms.

She held this small lamp in both hands, illuminating the entire underground space, with a slightly confused expression on her face.

The poisonous tongue that was wrapped around the throne finally bit down on her artery.

After the snake bit her, just like the two people who had touched the throne before, it turned into a cloud of black smoke and slowly drifted into the air.

Xu Tianle didn't make a sound, just shook his body twice, and then fell softly on the armrest of the throne.

Her face, which had been a little pale, quickly covered with a thin layer of gray, and her rosy lips gradually lost their blood.

"Lele!"

Xu He's reaction was the fastest, he exclaimed, and wanted to rush up and pick her up, but because he was afraid of the power of the throne, he could only get very close to Xu Tianle, and hurriedly asked her: "Lele, are you okay?" Wake up! Master is here! ”

"What's wrong with the little girl?"

Xue Qing also leaned forward suspiciously, naturally she didn't dare to touch her, just squinted her eyes to avoid the dazzling light of the silver lamp, and guessed cautiously: "Could it be this thing that has done to her." ”

"Impossible."

The little boy standing on the side hugged his arms, frowned and said categorically: "How can the mountain and river lamp not recognize the master!" ”

"But this little girl is not the owner of the mountain and river lantern!"

Xue Qing turned her head, blinked a pair of beautiful lady's eyes, and said to the little boy in a strange tone: "She's just an impostor born at the same time as that one, the throne mistakenly regards her as the master, and the mountain and river lantern may recognize it!" ”

The corner of the snake monarch's mouth, who was lying on the ground and pretending to be dead, showed a sneer, and he gently hooked his fingers.

A wisp of crimson blood mist appeared in the palm of his hand, and the blood mist seemed to have a life of its own, constantly changing shapes, and finally formed a complex character, which landed on his palm.

There were black marks churning under his skin, which appeared from time to time, and he gritted his teeth again in pain, and let out a miserable scream.

The blood-colored character shimmered red in the center of his fist, and the hot current emanated from the character, burning his skin, and the heat spread up little by little along the veins in his arm.

The few people who gathered around Xu Tianle watched Xu Tianle's complexion decay more and more, and the whole person was shrouded in a layer of death. Neither dared to touch her, nor was he willing to retreat like this, and fell into a dilemma.

The ghost bride, who stood between several people and never said a word, suddenly spit out three words at this time.

"Grave keeper."

The three of them turned their heads sharply and stared at her in unison, all with shock in their eyes.

"What do you say? What grave keeper? ”

The little boy was the first to hold back, rushed up and grabbed her clothes, and asked loudly, "Did you see that?" Where, where are the grave keepers? Is he coming? ”

"Nope."

The ghost bride lowered her head, shook her head indifferently at the little boy, raised her head to look at Xue Qing again, pointed to the silver lamp in Xu Tianle's arms, and repeated: "Tomb keeper." ”

Xu He looked at them in confusion, not knowing what kind of dumb riddle they were playing.

From the time Xue Qing and the little boy mentioned the mountain and river lanterns before, he couldn't understand the direction of the plot.

I don't blame him for this, in fact, he is the latest one among the "Seven Monarchs of the Ghost Mansion".

While he was still alive, the legendary "Wuxi Ghost King" had already left this place. He hadn't even had a chance to see the true face of that person, and even what the so-called "Throne of the Witch God" was, he still didn't know very clearly.

In fact, if he hadn't picked up a Xu Tianle outside who could replace the previous ghost king, he would not have been qualified to enter the highest-level small group of the "Seven Monarchs of the Ghost Mansion".

The grave keeper in the mouth of the ghost bride, he had heard of it, and it was said that it was the one he saw in the tomb back then, carrying the shadow of a lamp.

In the past 20 years, I have never heard of him doing anything other than going around the mountains every month.

Although the other "people" were very afraid of this "grave keeper", they usually had to shake a few times even to mention these three words, but Xu He didn't have any real feelings about this guy.

It sounds like a programmed robot that goes out for a spin at the end of the day, and I don't know what you're afraid of.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the lamp in Xu Tianle's arms again.

This thing is called a mountain and river lamp?

It doesn't seem to look special, it's just a glowing broken stone, and no one may be willing to buy it when you take it out.

If the one I saw in the tomb at that time really came out, it might be a little interesting, but now I put a lamp out, why are they all so nervous.

These thoughts raced through his mind, and he turned his head to look at the ghost bride.

The little boy and Xue Qing both had troubled expressions, and even the snake monarch on the ground lowered his screams after hearing the words "grave keeper".

"You mean ......"

Xue Qing rubbed her eyebrows, pointed to the silver lamp on the side, and asked the ghost bride tentatively: "The mountain and river lantern is here, and the tomb keeper is not far away, is it?" ”

As soon as she said this, the little boy's face instantly turned terrified.

"Impossible, if he comes out now, what will happen to his precious coffin?"

Xue Qing comforted the ghost bride softly: "Don't worry, he has always been afraid that someone will touch the broken coffin as soon as he comes out." Didn't we have something to watch at his door, so he wouldn't come out and wander around without anything. ”

"Not necessarily."

With a certain murderous aura in his eyes, the little boy squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "What if that guy packs up all the things guarding the door?" ”

"How is that possible, that's so many ......"

Xue Qing just smiled disdainfully at first, and after seeing the little boy's increasingly serious expression, she opened her mouth in surprise: "No, it's really gone." ”

The little boy nodded firmly, and put on a rare gloomy and complicated expression.

"Outside the cemetery, those ...... It's all gone. ”

Xue Qing gasped and took half a step back.

"No, it won't! When did it happen, how did it not? ”

She asked three questions in a row, and when she had finished, she looked at the little boy with a gloomy face, waiting for him to give her a decent answer.

"I don't know."

The little boy closed his eyes and shook his head: "I don't know anything, I don't feel anything, it's all gone." ”

Xue Qing followed his eyes and glanced at the mountain and river lamp in Xu Tianle's arms, with some fear in her eyes.

Xu Tianle's face had turned pale and purple again, and his whole face was glowing with a strange oily glow, and it seemed to be swollen for a whole circle at a glance.

"Can we beat him?"

Xue Qing looked at the little boy worriedly. Waving his hand, he gestured to the quiet and solemn black-clothed man door below: "If we go up together, I'm afraid that guy won't last long." ”

"You're naΓ―ve, he can't be suppressed by numbers at all."

The snake king stiffened up with a carp and flipped up from the ground.

His face looked very ruddy at this time, not at all like an injury, his tone was filled with some inexplicable joy, and he stepped in front of the throne in a few steps.

"You, you can still move!"

The little boy looked at him in surprise and shouted, "How did you do it, how did you get all the blood clotting out under my nose!" ”

"Well, this one!"

The Snake King reached out and put his hand on the armrest of the throne and gently stroked it twice. smiled maliciously, and stretched out a hand at the little boy: "Start first for the wall, and then start to suffer, don't you understand this truth?" ”

The blood-red pattern of his palms was still glowing red, and the light flow was turning around, which looked very good.

"Oh, what should I do, the grave keeper will be here in a moment, and you will have to die here...... Have you ever seen him kill someone? Oh, you must not have seen it, you are all children, the oldest, Miss Qing'er, how many years have you been alive until you are dead? Is there seventy now? The last time the grave keeper shot was more than 90 years ago, and I guess I'm the only one here who has seen it. ”

"When that guy first made a move, he walked over step by step, and the people around him turned into ashes! He walked around like a walk, and an entire army disappeared! Not a single one left! Not even a bit of scum was left, and it just disappeared out of thin air! It's ridiculous that you think he's just an old man who doesn't dare to go out! ”

"In this world, except for the Ghost King, no one can defeat the Tomb Keeper! Do you understand! ”

"So when he comes, you will all die, unless you obey me! Any idea why this is? Because the grave keeper is to obey the ghost king! And I-I'm your new ghost king! ”

He turned around, stretched out his arms, and shouted at the man in black at the bottom of the steps, "See, your new king has been born, and it's me!" I'm your new ghost king! Why don't you hurry up and kneel down and kowtow to me! Whoever kneels down first, and when I take you to 'over there', he will definitely give you a glorious and rich first!" ”

I don't know who knelt down first in the crowd, but after a while, the people who knelt on the ground under the steps were all kowtowing to the pattern of the snake king's palm.

Xia Beifeng squatted in the corner, disguised himself as a kneeling movement, and bowed his head with the crowd around him, but he always stared at the pattern of the snake monarch's palm with the corner of his eye.

The pattern was like a living creature parasitic on the palm of his hand, and the hot vitality it emanated could be felt from far away.

The red light flowed back and forth between the complicated lines, flickering and swaying in the black crowd below, which seemed to be a little too lively.

Xia Beifeng vaguely felt that the pattern seemed a little familiar, but after thinking about it, he couldn't think of where he had seen this thing.

He had seen a lot of patterns like it in the water with the black dragon locked in it before, and although he didn't remember much at the time, he was sure that he had never seen a person look like this at that time.

It wasn't until the crowd below had begun to shout "Hurray" that several people standing next to the Snake King came back to their senses from this incident.

"You, what did you do!"

The little boy shouted at him and slammed into his thigh.

With a slight lift of his leg, the little boy was easily kicked out by him, tumbling and falling down the steps, leaving a trail of shocking blood.

"See, see!"

The Snake Monarch turned his head and said to Xue Qing and Xu He: "This is the power of the Ghost King, this is the power I just got, and this is the power that only I am qualified to have!" Yes! Strength! That's how it feels, if you two still don't want to obey me, come over quickly, and let me beat you until you're convinced! My body is full of power now, and I can't resist it! ”

As he said the last sentence, he flicked his wide sleeves in emotion.

A gust of wind spawned from under his sleeves, blowing through the crowd and rolling up countless black robes to fly.

The crowd below knelt even more reverently.

Xu He glanced at Xu Tianle reluctantly, and also gritted his teeth and knelt down at the snake monarch.

"Knock on the Ghost King!"

He pressed his forehead to the ground, maintaining the five-body throwing movement, waiting for the snake monarch to fall.

Xue Qing stood aside, her face hidden under the mask was cloudy for a long time, and then she asked in a calm voice, "How did you do it?" ”

After she said this, she pulled the ghost bride beside her, stepped back a little secretly, and stood on the edge of the steps.

"What do you say?"

Snake Jun Fang laughed a few times before answering Xue Qing's question: "I'll take advantage of the quarrel between a few of you wastes who are not successful enough to do more than anything to lose, and get that little girl in your hands!" How else could it be? You three are so stupid that you can't even see this little trick, and you think I'm really going to be restrained by those little bugs! I don't want to think about it, I'm hundreds of years older than you, the things in that little cub's hand are really powerful, I may not be able to beat him head-on, but who doesn't have the trick of pressing the bottom of the box? Smart people don't show all their cards all at once. Don't you say, Miss Qing'er? ”

"I see."

Xue Qing nodded thoughtfully, turned her head to look at Xu Tianle who was lying there, and arched her hand at the snake monarch: "Sure enough, it's a senior, the little woman admires it." ”

"Then do you two want to obey me?"

Snake Jun stretched out his hand at Xue Qing and gently touched the mask on her face: "I've always liked little girls like you Qing'er, not only are you beautiful, but you also have a good brain, which is different from those idiots who only know how to kill." ”

Xue Qing clenched the ghost bride's hand and glanced at her with a slight sideways face.

Wait for me to give a code, and we'll jump down together.

The ghost bride lowered her head, shook it back with a hard hand.

"Look at what you said, how can the little woman be able to get into your eyes? You will be the king of ghosts in the future, what kind of person do you want, why do you stare at the two of us? ”

"I'm not staring at you two, I'm staring at you! Miss Qing'er! ”

The Snake King shook his head and sighed. took a step closer to Xue Qing: "I just said, smart people don't show all the hole cards all at once, who doesn't have the trick of pressing the bottom of the box." Since you and I are smart people, you ......"

He laughed meaningfully and stretched out a hand at Xue Qing.

"Either just follow me, or call things out, or you won't want to go out today!"

Xue Qing reached out and pressed her chest.

The Snake King straightened up slightly, staring nervously at her movements.

The ghost bride secretly clenched Xue Qing's hand.

"I said no."

Xue Qing whispered and let go of the ghost bride's hand.

The ghost bride leaped down the high steps.

The Snake King roared angrily, turned his palm into a knife, and swung it in the void.

A half-arc of red light flew back towards the two of them.

The red light was only the size of a palm when it first left his hand, and it expanded more and more as it flew through the air, and when it came to Xue Qing's side, it was already more than half a meter long.

When the red light flew in, with a whistling sound unique to sharp weapons, it touched the corner of Xue Qing's clothes.

It was just touching the corner of her clothes, and a black crack appeared out of thin air behind Xue Qing, she took half a step back, fell into the crack, and disappeared.

The rift didn't appear to disappear in less than a second, like a bolt of lightning, it flashed away, but it took away a Xue Qing.

The red light expanded and grew larger, falling down in the direction where Xue Qing had disappeared, cutting off half of the steps, and flying towards the ghost bride's back.

When the ghost bride was slashed by the red light, she didn't even make a sound, and her body exploded into a cloud of blood mist, like a drizzle, silently falling on the steps, dyeing most of the steps dark red.

"Tsk, this woman...... Actually let her run away! ”

The snake monarch gritted his teeth and complained, turned around again, and shouted downward, "Is there anyone among you who is not convinced!" ”

The man in black who knelt all over the ground kowtowed again, noisily praising the "Ghost King's Divine Skills" and "The Ghost King's Wisdom"...... Flattering words like that.

Xia Beifeng loosened his shoulders and bent down with them.

Bai Su poked his head out of his collar and gave him a contemptuous look.

Otherwise, what else can I do, rush up to do the right thing for heaven?

I'm a living person, can you think about it for me?

This kind of thing rushed up by one person, only Ye Baiyu was a fool......

As soon as he thought of this, he heard a loud shout coming from nowhere.

"And I'm not convinced!"

Summer North Wind: ......

said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, but I didn't expect Ye Baiyu, a fool, to really come!
