【274】Prepare with both hands

When the word "kill" landed, King Yama obviously felt the sudden drop in indoor temperature, and he couldn't help but tremble. The sun was still warm outside the doors and windows, and the grass and trees under the spring breeze were leisurely opposite, but the room inside the doors and windows was like the cold yin wind of the thirty-nine days, whirring, whirling and dancing, blowing the robes of the king of Yama slightly bulging.

He knew that Emperor Xudu was really angry now.

Long before Xiao Shizhu's recital, as well as those assassins and confessions, Emperor Xudu received a secret report from the shadow ghost beside him, saying that the king of Chujiang had a close relationship with Du Ziren, and even often secretly sentenced the souls of people who had just arrived in the underworld to Du Ziren as ghost slaves, so that Du Ziren had cultivated a force of his own in just a hundred years.

This force, after Du Ziren received the news that King Chu Jiang had indeed assassinated Xiao Shizhu, directly took action to invade Jiangmo County of the Nine Shadows Country, and then encroached step by step, slowly erasing the Nine Shadows Kingdom from the underworld.

And Du Ziren's rebellion, Emperor Xudu had already known, and when he learned that he and the King of Chujiang actually had a meeting with the outside world, Emperor Xudu had murderous intent.

Before, King Chu Jiang wanted to use Emperor Xudu to eradicate the little Jiujiu of the Nine Shadows King, although it was hidden very deep and not easy to detect, but an old ghost like Emperor Xudu was not unable to see clearly, but he also had his own plans. If it succeeds, he will find another opportunity in the future to clean up the King of Chujiang, and he can also grasp this handle and threaten the King of Chujiang. If it doesn't work, he can also give Xiao Shizhu a warning, and use Xiao Shizhu's hand to add fuel to the fire and contribute to the death of King Chujiang.

But the only thing he didn't expect was that King Chu Jiang would dare to blatantly confess him!

This made the Emperor Xudu suddenly annoyed and angry.

And the ghosts who have been in the Northern Yin Dynasty for a long time all guessed that the mastermind behind this assassination was definitely Emperor Xudu as soon as they learned that the King of Chujiang had hired a murderer to assassinate the King of the Nine Shadows, but no ghost dared to say it openly, so he had to secretly suspect in his heart.

The king of Chujiang did not know the current affairs, but he actually told the truth in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner, which was the biggest taboo; it was equivalent to exposing the old background of the Emperor Xudu, and invisibly deducting his "reverse scales".

"The bloody storm is coming again. King Yama lowered his head a few points, looked directly at the tips of his shoes, and sighed secretly in his heart: "King Chu Jiang, King Chu Jiang, call you stupid." I'm afraid you're not the only one who is dead now, and your family's old and young will not be able to escape the catastrophe. ”。

But there is a bit of schadenfreude.

"Pass the decree, hand over the future work of the Great Living Hell Hall to Judge Zhong Kui to do, and nail the iron nail made by King Chu Jiang with soul-breaking iron to the soul return archway at the entrance of Yin Si Street!" When the yin wind stopped, Emperor Xudu snorted angrily and said coldly: "Let all the ghosts in Xudu see, this is the fate of daring to frame me!"

"No. The muscles at the corners of King Yama's mouth trembled slightly, and he hurriedly saluted in response, he no longer thought about how tragic King Chu Jiang was, he just wanted to leave the emotionally unstable boss in front of him as soon as possible.

"Also, I remember that King Chujiang has a family in the underworld, right?" Immediately after, Emperor Xudu slapped the scroll in his hand on the table, and then squinted and asked.

"Yes, he has a wife and daughter, and there are many guests and servants in the house. King Yama continued to bow his head in reply, the muscles outside his eyes twitching a few times.

"Arrest your wives and daughters and sell them to brothels in remote places. It's best to go to the remote and dirty little brothel in the icy Xuanming Prefecture, and let this mother and daughter serve those barbarians. You do it yourself. Without thinking, Emperor Xudu blurted out: "The rest of the family members and the guests, and then the queen of Chujiang will be executed, and they will all be sent to the ghost market to be beheaded on the spot! ”。

After finishing speaking, Emperor Xudu waved his hand impatiently, picked up the scroll again, and read it.

"Yes. King Yama did not refute, and after secretly breathing a sigh of relief, he resigned himself and withdrew.

"Xiao Shizhu. After the king of Yama left, the Emperor Xudu, who was still angry on his face, gently closed the scroll in his hand, looked ahead and thought for a moment, and muttered: "If it is the other way around in the future, it may be an interesting opponent." ”......

Just when the king of Yama went to report to the Emperor Xudu on the situation of the interrogation of the king of Chujiang, five human souls wearing the clothes of the palace of the king of Chujiang quietly came to the outside of the palace of the king of Chujiang, which was only one lane away from the Great Living Hell Palace, and stood in the shadow under the wall, standing with their backs against the wall of the palace.

Seeing that there was no other ghost around except them, the five ghosts looked at each other, and after giving each other a look, they jumped up on their toes in unison, and after flipping over in the air, they jumped over the wall one after another, and fell into the backyard of the palace lightly.

As soon as they landed, they quickly found a place to hide. In the palace where the old man was imprisoned and in chaos, no one found these five sneakers.

Seeing the opportunity, taking advantage of the servants who were busy in the backyard, after they all went to the front yard, the five ghosts suddenly rushed out of their hiding place, and rushed towards the inconspicuous hut that seemed to be for the gardener in the southeast corner of the backyard.

In an instant, they quietly came to the side of the house, and the cat's waist stood in front of the door to the left and right.

The ghost at the head listened for a moment, made sure that there was a ghost in the house, and then turned his head a little, quietly stood aside, looked left and right to watch the wind for his companions, and the other four ghosts didn't say a word, and jumped up from a distance.

When the wind just rose, the branches of the three big willow trees beside the house swayed, and when there was a chaotic noise, they slammed open the windows of the house and jumped into the house like a fish jumping over the dragon gate.

As soon as they entered the house, they flipped forward on the ground and pounced on the demon spirit who was drinking tea at the table in the room.

The demon soul looked like a sheep, but it had four horns on its head, and it was from Xiao Shizhu's side that escaped from the ink wisps. And the one who came to attack him was Xiao Shizhu's Xuanjiao disciples.

Tu Wei knew some of Xiao Shizhu's secrets, although not many and Tu Wei was an ink person, and he would not tell him to the Emperor of Xudu, but Xiao Shizhu still listed him as one of the primary targets of the Xuanjiao, just because he deceived Xiao Shizhu in the first place, so Xiao Shizhu has also been inquiring about his whereabouts, wanting to get rid of him as soon as possible.

It wasn't until not long ago that Xiao Shizhu learned that since Mo Zhai escaped from the Six Heavens Continent, he had been hiding in the Chujiang Palace, and had never left the palace.

He immediately informed the Xuanjiao cultists lurking in Xudu, and told them to act immediately after learning that the king of Chujiang was in prison, infiltrating the palace and killing Tu Wei, and disguised the scene of his death as a suicide.

After the disciples received the order, they secretly monitored the palace day and night, and after finding out Tu Wei's residence in the palace, they began to wait for the news of King Chujiang's imprisonment and began to plan the operation.

Unguarded, the earth wisp was pressed to the ground by the Xuanjiao disciples three times and five by two, and was also pointed at the dumb point, and there was no sound in the throat for a moment or three.

One of them quickly took out a rope from behind his waist, threw it gently, hung one end accurately on the beam and then hung it down, and tied a set. The other three ghosts joined forces, lifted the earth wisp, and forcibly stuffed his head into the set.

The ghost who tied the knot suddenly pulled the knot again, and this demon soul who used to take pleasure in eating human souls and secretly helped Mo Zhai do a lot of bad things was hung in the air under the beam;

After a while, staring at the wisps of earth with a long tongue, he died with a whimper. Maybe he didn't even expect this ending.

The Xuanjiao disciples then moved a chair as high as his four hooves off the ground, cushioned it under the four hooves of the earth, and then pushed it again, creating the illusion that the other party had hanged himself.

From entering the house to finishing it cleanly, it's only a few dozen breaths of time. The Xuanjiao disciples did not stop, and after carefully searching around the house, and did not find any information about Xiao Shizhu in the house, they took out a stack of papers from their arms and put them under the straw mat used to sit and rest in the depths of the room.

but deliberately exposed the corner of a piece of paper outside the table.

There was nothing else written on those papers, it was all the locations of the Mo family's branches in the Six Heavens Continent, as well as the contact information and the list of the Mo Masters and Mo Xia, and the source was Lin Cong, whom Mo Zhai trusted very much.

The reason for this is that Xiao Shizhu expected that the Emperor of Xudu would not procrastinate in doing things, once the King of Chujiang was imprisoned, he would die within a day, and after the queen of Chujiang was beheaded, the Emperor Xudu would definitely send ghosts to raid the house, and then the Yin soldiers would find out about this, and then borrow the hands of the Emperor Xudu to eradicate the ink masters of the Six Heavens Continent!

After quickly cleaning the footprints of the human souls on the floor in the house, the disciples crept out of the house, gently closing the door but leaving the windows open. Doing things vigorously and resolutely, quietly and without being careless, it is simply a ghost, but I am afraid that even the secret agents of the Emperor Xudu are beyond the reach of the dust.

After the disciples went out and met with the leader, they did not rush to escape from the palace, but bypassed the servants in the palace, quietly sneaked into the houses of the palace, and calmly searched carefully.

The house was already in chaos, and all the ghosts had ghosts in their hearts, either thinking about how to divide their luggage and then going back to their respective homes to find their own mothers, or they were trying to take advantage of the master's absence, how to steal something valuable, so that they could go out and live happily; no ghost found out about the existence of these five cultists.

Then the disciples found out all the information about Xiao Shizhu collected by King Chujiang, and then threw it into the stove in the kitchen, and after watching all the information burned, they clapped their hands, quietly sneaked out of the palace, and took away the two million silver tickets that King Chujiang had collected from his wealth.

[Yin Si Street - the first long street in Xudu, which runs through the entire Xudu from south to north, is the center of politics, economy, culture and entertainment in the underworld, and is a place for the subjects of Xudu to gather, exchange and gather. When Xiao Shizhu first arrived in the underworld, the ghost market he visited was on this street. 】
