Chapter 47: The Conspiracy Revealed

As soon as Xiucai's words came out, everyone was stunned, and everyone looked at Xiucai in a daze without speaking, and the whole cave was quietly falling needles-

"What do you mean?

After a long time, Fan Tianjiu, who came back to his senses, looked at Xiucai and said in surprise.

"Yes, according to the pot-bellied fairy—

If you want a dead dog to be resurrected, you must first find another live dog and drip the blood of this live dog into this green bamboo soul lamp.

Then chant the incantation, and the living dog dies in place of the dead dog, and the dead dog is resurrected on the spot.

In the same way, if you want to resurrect someone, you have to find another person to die in your place......"

Speaking of this, I saw Xiucai sobbing a little, and then said:

“...... Originally, I thought that there are so many heinous sinners in the world, and none of them deserve to die more than my sister, and it makes sense to exchange their lives for my sister's life.

But my character is too weak, although I have found a lot of people, but I can't do it, so in the end I really can't do it, so I have to ......"

"So you want to trade your own life for your sister's? well, I finally get it......"

Fan Tianjiu nodded when he heard this, and then his eyes widened!

Then, I saw Fan Tianjiu pointing at Xiucai on the ground and scolding loudly:

"You idiot——! even if your sister dies, she will turn into a ghost and guard you, so that you can live well!

You're so fucking out of your sister's sacrifice that you want to give up your life so easily!

Aren't you kid trying to die?! Okay——! I'm going to kick you to death for your sister right now——!"

For some reason, Fan Tianjiu suddenly became furious when he heard that Xiucai wanted to give up his life!

I saw him open his mouth and scold, while raising his leg and kicking Xiucai on the ground——!

"Ah——! Brother Jiu, calm down, calm down, stop kicking!"

Seeing that Fan Tianjiu suddenly went crazy, Si Bi'an next to him was suddenly shocked, and hurriedly ran forward, grabbing him while persuading him with kind words.

"Alright! Fan Tianjiu, are you suddenly crazy? Stop making trouble! Stand aside!"

At this time, Ji Xuelan immediately scolded him when she saw this, and only when Fan Tianjiu was pulled aside by Si Bi'an did she turn her head, look at the embarrassed Xiucai on the ground, sighed, and said:

"Alas...... We all know your difficulties, but as the captain of the Impermanence Ghost School, there are some things I still have to ask you to understand......"

Speaking of this, I saw Ji Xuelan leaning over, looking at Xiucai and asking with a serious expression:

"Let me ask you, why did the big-bellied fairy choose you as a traitor to infiltrate our school?"

Hearing this, Xiucai rubbed his shoulder, which was kicked by Fan Tianjiu, looked up at Ji Xuelan, and sighed at the corner of his mouth:

"Alas...... In fact, on the eve of being rescued from the rubble, I was dying from inhaling an excessive amount of gas leaking from underground pipes, and according to the doctor who later rescued me, I was in a state of suspended animation.

And the big belly fairy took a fancy to me, and he said that people who had such an experience as me were likely to be selected by your school as an impermanence ghost, so he let me take the college entrance examination that year with a fake identity.

Sure enough, after the exam, I actually received an acceptance letter from your school.

So the big belly fairy threatened me with my sister's resurrection, and let me infiltrate the school and become an undercover agent he planted in the school. ”

"Well, I see...... Because new students are new to school, even if something happens to the school, it is not easy to suspect you.

I actually thought of using you newcomers as internal ghosts, this big-bellied fairy is really insidious and cunning......"

Mu Tiezhu nodded in understanding when he heard this, and then, frowning, he looked at Xiucai on the ground and said in a deep voice:

"Okay, now for the key questions......

The big-bellied fairy did everything possible to insert you into our West Yunnan Branch, what purpose does he want to achieve?"

"The purpose of the big-bellied fairy is to get the Zhenkun God Mourning Stick in the hands of Brother Jiu......"

Speaking of this, I saw Xiucai look up at Fan Tianjiu, who was still puffing up in front of him, and then said:

“...... The Big-bellied Fairy said that he had received reliable information that the Zhenkun Divine Mourning Stick was in the West Yunnan Branch. But where exactly it was hidden in the school, he didn't know.

So in order to find out the whereabouts of the Divine Mourning Stick, he asked me to secretly destroy the school protection barrier - the statue of the Peacock King, and then lure the eight-limbed lady into the school to attack.

The eight-limbed lady has a soul-reading eye and can probe people's hearts. As long as she enters the school and catches an impermanence ghost envoy at random, and then checks his mind, then the location of the Death Stick will be clear immediately......"

"Oh...... It turns out that the Lady of the Eight Limbs is also part of the conspiracy, and we are really careless......"

Mu Tiezhu couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, then frowned, and continued to ask:

“...... However, that eight-limbed lady is also one of the ten murderers, why would she willingly charge for the big-bellied fairy and act as cannon fodder for him?"

"Well, about that...... According to the big-bellied fairy, since this eight-limbed lady was betrayed by a man, she sacrificed her eyes and conscience to the Demon Ancestor who was locked up in the Infernal Hell, the Nine Ancient Demons, and became his disciple.

In exchange, the Nine Ancient Demons gave the Lady of Eight Limbs a pair of soul-reading eyes that could see through people's hearts, making her a terrifying demon. ”

Speaking of this, I saw Xiucai frowning, and then said:

“...... But this soul-reading eye is both a gift and a shackle to the Lady of the Eight Limbs.

Since then, the Lady of Eight Limbs has become a puppet manipulated by the Nine Ancient Demons to work for him outside of the Infernal Hell.

However, the Lady of Eight Limbs is unwilling to be controlled by the Nine Shadows Ancient Demon, and has been trying to find a way to dispel the demonic energy exerted by the Nine Shadows Ancient Demon on the soul reading heart eye for thousands of years, and get rid of his control.

Until one day, she heard from the big-bellied fairy that the Zhenkun Divine Funeral Stick, which was differentiated from Jiang Ziya's killing immortal whip, had the effect of killing gods and killing demons, and could dispel the demonic energy on her soul-reading heart.

So Mrs. Eight Limbs hit it off with the big-bellied fairy and wanted to join forces to steal the Zhenkun Divine Funeral Stick from the West Yunnan Branch.

But what Mrs. Eight Limbs didn't know was that the Big-Bellied Fairy never thought of sharing the Mourning Stick with her, but just treated her like a pathfinder stone that could be thrown away when it was used up......"

"I see...... Hehe, I was deceived twice by a man, this eight-limbed lady may be the most unlucky of the ten murderers......"

Fan Tianjiu sneered when he heard this, then frowned, looked at Xiucai and asked:

"Xiucai, so at the freshman welcome party, you took the initiative to talk to me, saying that it was a conspiracy to let me take you to escape?

Your purpose is just to lure me into the ancient building and let me take the mourning rod out of the building for you, right?"

"Yes, because I don't know what kind of artifact the Divine Death Stick is, and I'm afraid that it will have the same serious side effects as the Qingzhu Soul Redemption Lamp, so I want someone to help me test it...... Brother Jiu——!"

Speaking of this, I saw Xiucai kneel in front of Fan Tianjiu again, and shouted with tears in his heart:

"Brother Jiu, Brother An——! I'm sorry for you! I'm sorry for you——! woo wow——!"

Speaking of this, I saw Xiucai kneeling on the ground again, crying bloodily.

"Alas...... Okay, now that everything has been explained, let's get here today......"

Mu Tiezhu sighed when he heard this, turned his head and ordered to the two impermanent guards behind him:

"You two! first put him in the wing behind Jizooji Temple and take care of him. He is not to be allowed to come into contact with anyone without my orders——!"

"Yes——!"

The two Impermanent Guards shouted in response, then walked up to Xiucai, lifted him up, and turned to leave the cave.

And seeing Xiucai being dragged away like a dog, Si Bi'an suddenly felt unbearable, so he couldn't help but sneak to Fan Tianjiu's side and whispered to him:

"Brother Jiu, although Xiucai was at fault, he managed to save our lives. Brother, are we just watching him being locked up......"

"Shhh——! don't say it yet!"

Before Si Bi'an could finish speaking, Fan Tianjiu stopped him in a low voice.

Then, I saw Fan Tianjiu leaning against the wall with his hands clenched into fists, looking at Mu Tiezhu and Ji Xuelan in front of him expressionlessly, not knowing what he was thinking......

"Alas...... Captain Ji, this has come to this, what do you think we should do next?"

When Xiucai was taken away, Mu Tiezhu sighed, turned to Ji Xuelan and asked.

"Well, that's ......"

Ji Xuelan didn't answer directly when she heard this, but took the green bamboo soul redemption lamp from Mu Tiezhu's hand and looked at it.

Then I saw Ji Xuelan think for a while, turned around and came to Fan Tianjiu, handed him the green bamboo soul redemption lamp in his hand, and the miasma amethyst box containing the body of Xiucai's sister, and said at the same time:

"Fan Tianjiu, Si Bi'an, the two of you will send these two things to Guigu Gong first, so that he must take good care of ......"

Fan Tianjiu was stunned when he heard this, looked up at Ji Xuelan thoughtfully, nodded and said:

"Alright, let's go ......"

After speaking, Fan Tianjiu took the two artifacts, turned around and pulled Si Bi'an out of the cave together.

When the two of them walked away, Mu Tiezhu came to Ji Xuelan's side and asked her:

"Captain Ji, you separated Fan Tianjiu, is there anything inconvenient to say in front of him?"

"Hehe, of course ......"

Ji Xuelan smiled slightly when she heard this, and said to Mu Tiezhu:

"Bar head, from Xiucai's confession just now, it can be seen that this big-bellied fairy has engaged in so many conspiracies, and its purpose is to seize the Zhenkun Divine Mourning Stick in Fan Tianjiu's hand.

And the reason why we want to send Fan Tianjiu out is also because we are afraid that if he stays in the school with the Divine Mourning Stick, he will clash with the upcoming Impermanence Ghost King Lei Shiheng who holds the Divine Crying Stick. So much so that the tragedy of ten years ago has reappeared.

That is to say, we are now faced with a dilemma -

If we send Fan Tianjiu out, the Divine Mourning Stick may be snatched by the Big-Bellied Immortal.

If we keep Fan Tianjiu on campus, there is a possibility that we will meet and clash with NVC. ”

"Well, that's true, it's a dilemma......"

Mu Tiezhu sighed when he heard this, then thought for a while, and proposed:

“...... Otherwise, I asked Fan Tianjiu to hand over the Zhenkun Divine Mourning Stick, and then hide it in a safe place in the yang world, and send heavy troops to protect it. How about moving back to school after the Ghost King Contest is over?"

"Alas~ But in this way, Fan Tianjiu is in danger......"

Ji Xuelan frowned when she heard this, and analyzed:

"Gongtou, you know, that big-bellied fairy is going to Zhenkun Shen Mourning Stick.

If he catches Fan Tianjiu and doesn't find the Divine Death Stick on him, do you think the angry Big-Bellied Immortal will bypass Fan Tianjiu's life?

Besides, now that the Ghost King Contest is imminent, the school's own guard force is still insufficient, how can anyone be sent out to protect the Zhenkun God Mourning Stick in the Yang Realm?

Therefore, Gongtou, I think the best way at the moment is to put the Divine Mourning Stick in Fan Tianjiu's place, and still let him take the Divine Stick to the Yang World to perform the task as usual.

And we can use Fan Tianjiu as bait to lure the big-bellied fairy to appear in the yang, and then round him up.

In this way, you can turn the crisis into an opportunity -

That is, to prevent the Heaven and Earth God Stick from meeting in the school and causing a bloody case, and to take the opportunity to arrest the big-bellied fairy, it can be described as killing two birds with one stone. ”

"Well, this attention is good, it's just too dangerous, can that kid Fan Tianjiu bear it?"

Mu Tiezhu pondered for a moment when he heard this, and said doubtfully.

"Hee-hee...... You know, Fan Tianjiu's kid is very difficult to deal with.

Especially the more critical the moment, the more the kid is often able to improvise and come up with many unbelievable countermeasures, so as to catch the enemy off guard.

Therefore, I think it is the most suitable person to use Fan Tianjiu as this bait to lure the big-bellied fairy into the set. ”

Ji Xuelan smiled confidently when she heard this.

"Well, Captain Ji, you're right......

Mu Tiezhu nodded while listening, and then sighed:

"Alas~ People say that Hades is better, but the little ghost is difficult...... But I really haven't encountered such a difficult little ghost like Fan Tianjiu before!

Thinking that Fan Tianjiu, a guy who is as witty as a dog, is making trouble in front, maybe it is really enough for the big-bellied fairy to drink a pot......

Well, in that case, let's do as you say!"

Speaking of this, I saw Mu Tiezhu pacing back to the outside of the cave, looking at the dark and deep valley under the cliff and snorting coldly:

"NVC Heng, Big-bellied Fairy, don't you want to compete with our impermanent ghost envoys?

All right...... Then let's come together ——! see who we will die in the end......
