Chapter 1: The Hungry Ghost Returns

Next Chapter

The red land is thousands of miles, the smoke is full of miasma, and as far as the eye can see, the ground is full of hunger. I could vaguely see the body that had been eaten to the bones, and I could hear the mournful cry of the goshawk that lingered in the clear sky.

The armor on her body was shattered, and the ants burrowed into her fingers, which she could no longer move, and she was so sleepy that she couldn't lift her eyelids, but she didn't dare to sleep, otherwise she would be the next to expose her corpse to the wilderness.

Extreme hunger and thirst made her unable to think, and she had to look at the scorching sun, praying that it would come closer.

Dizzy, she seemed to have come to a dark place, only to hear a voice in her ears, "Become a starving ghost, if you want to be reincarnated smoothly, you must fulfill a mortal's wish to fill your desires." ”

She didn't have time to ask anything, but when she stretched out her hand, she saw that her fingers had become transparent, could it be that she had really become a ghost?

Suddenly, his eyes went black, and his pupils lost focus.

I don't know how long later, she felt a headache, raised her hand to rub her forehead, opened her eyes and saw that she was in a simple and quiet room, she thought to herself, "Where is this?" ”

I could only hear the anxious and happy voice of an old woman, "Hanama, are you awake?" ”

"Flowers? Who are you calling? She stood up and looked around, stumbling to the mirror, startled, and her hands kept stroking her face, "It's over!" ”

This body is petite and exquisite, completely different from the appearance of her five big and three thick before her death, and for a while she seems to be a little unaccustomed to walking, making herself crooked.

The old woman was obviously frightened by the woman's actions in front of her, and did not dare to move, but asked again worriedly: "Are you okay?" ”

"Not good, of course not!" She shouted in her heart, "That dead ghost only said that a mortal's wish must be fulfilled before reincarnation, but he didn't say that this reincarnation must be possessed by others!" ”

She was silent for a long time, clenching her wrists, trying to calm herself down, she was a battleground and an invincible general before her death, how could she be frightened by this sudden accident.

I could only hear a voice swirling in my head, and it seemed to come out of my heart, "Who are you?" The voice was a tactful female voice, presumably the flower in the woman's mouth.

"Girl, I don't know what's going on. I was plotted in a war, and I was thrown into a barbarian land full of starvation, and I unfortunately became a starving ghost. Before falling into samsara, someone, oh no, a ghost told me that whoever becomes a ghost who starves to death must fill his worldly desires with a mortal's wish in order to be reincarnated. When I woke up, I was here, and I became you. ”

"Is that so? It seems to be out of the pool. The voice responded, pausing again, "In that case, are you just going to fulfill my wish?" Then you will be reincarnated, and I will be able to continue to be myself. ”

"Maybe?" She was a little undecided, but there was no other way at the moment, so she asked, "So, girl, what is your wish?" ”

"Avenge me, and then, help him become emperor."

She took a breath of cold air and complained that the dead ghost must be playing with me, I saw that he said it so lightly at the time, but these few words did not sound simple at all, and I would die again. "You don't look young, and you have a lot of wishes. But I can only finish one, and I have to give you my body back as soon as possible, right? ”

"Two." The female voice was very firm, somewhat of a matter of course.

"Girl, I was only a mortal when I was born, and although I ended up as a lonely ghost, I didn't have any great skills. Now that I have been possessed by you as a mortal, it is not easy to fulfill a wish, and you can have pity on me, a starving ghost. ”

"Two."

"Hey, you girl doesn't give anyone room for bargaining." She wanted to say something more, but she heard the man lying in front of her cough violently.

"He's awake." She felt the fluctuations in her body, and it seemed that this person was especially important to Hanama.

Only then did she see the appearance of the man under her eyes, she did not know what serious injuries he had suffered, his face was as pale as tissue paper, and his lips were still stained with dazzling blood. The bridge of his nose is straight, and his eyebrows are a pair of affectionate eyes under the green mountains, which are like autumn water and clear waves under the moonlight.

"What happened?" Wen Yeting raised his eyes, saw the flowers in front of him, confirmed that it was not a dream, and asked.

"My God, why does everyone ask me questions, I don't know anything!" She secretly vowed, "I will never be a starving ghost again in my next life!" ”

I saw the woman on the side answer: "In order to save you, Hanama begged me to use the technique of exchanging blood and resurrecting souls, so that I could save your life." It stands to reason that she is very likely to die in the flowers, but now she seems to be a little delirious, I don't know if there are any sequelae, but fortunately the person is still there. ”

Wen Yeting suddenly grabbed Hanama's shoulders tightly, and the green tendons on the back of his hand bulged, as if he was holding the yellow sand flowing from his fingers.

"Why are you so stupid? I've already cut off my heart......"

She had to be confused, but she was saying in her heart: "Girl, you are talking, I have really met your little ancestor for eight lifetimes!" ”

"Let's go first, I'll tell you later."

So she shook off Wen Yeting's hand, squeezed out a smile apologetically, and didn't know what to say to make it not seem so abrupt, so she only shouted anxiously: "I'm so tired, go back to the room to rest!" ”

She recklessly followed the guidance of the flowers, ran into a room, sat down and gasped, "Girl, you short arms and short legs, you are really not very easy to use. ”

If Hanama could still show his expression, he must have been frowning with anger at this time, his face was flushed, he was silent for a while, and sighed, "Long story short, my name is Hanama, and I am the only descendant of Huayuan Valley. The blood of the body of the heir can make the dead wood spring again, the wilderness into an oasis, and can also use the art of exchanging blood to revive the dead. The man you just saw is named Wen Yeting, he was rescued by me like this, and you may also come here by accident because I cast this secret technique. ”

"It's all about whatever. Wait, what did you say that person was called? So familiar name, where have I heard it. ”

"Wen Yeting, the prince of Yudu."

"What? Yudu! Isn't it, is there shit on the road of reincarnation, and the princes of this enemy country have all been met by me. At that time, he died on the border battlefield at the border with Yudu, if this is the case, is there a chance to change history? She didn't dare to make a sound, and asked again, "Then is this Yudu?" ”

"No, this is Anxiang in Shuzhou, and the state lord Wang Miao is my enemy, and your first task is to get rid of him."

"Wang Miao? It's as if I've heard these names come up before. She pondered for a long time, "Am I going back a hundred years ago?" It has been recorded in ancient historical books that Wang Miao died in the war between the two countries, and Shuzhou was later classified as the capital of Henan, and this Wen Yeting did become His Majesty the capital of Yu, it seems that this wish is not difficult to complete, as long as you follow the trend. It's just that I remember that Wen Yeting had no queen in his life, so he couldn't ......"

"Well, so you know why I want you to help me fulfill two wishes, I can't actually live because of you. I'm not sure if I'll ever survive if it's over. ”

She was stunned for a moment, why couldn't she even hide what she was thinking from the other party, "Can you hear my heart?" ”

"Sometimes I can, sometimes I can't, I don't know why, maybe there is a providence in the dark. Anyway, before the matter is over, I beg you to be Hanama for the time being, I don't want him to worry. ”

"Good. What should I do next? ”

"I originally planned to go to Jinyun City in Shuzhou a few days ago to assassinate Wang Miao, but Wang Miao found a hiding place first, and Wen Yeting was seriously injured and dying in order to help my clansmen escape. I couldn't watch him die, so I took the risk of saving him with a secret technique. Now that he should be fine, it's time to collect the debt. Tomorrow, you will rush to Jinyun City and meet with the clansmen over there to discuss the matter of eradicating Wang Miao. ”

"No problem. But when the meal is served, I'm hungry. After saying that, her stomach also barked, she scratched her head embarrassedly, and then pretended to pick her hand unintentionally.

“……”

"Don't mind, girl, since I became a starving ghost, I often feel that I can't get enough to eat, and I can't help it. And the amount of food I ate before my death was no different from that of a man, how can you bear it if you are so slender. ”

"Then don't eat me too fat."

“……”

"Do you remember that mother-in-law just now, go find her, she will cook for you."

Granny Hua cooked her copy hands and brought them to the table, she pinched the chopsticks with both hands, and saw a pale green porcelain bowl filled with a full and delicate copy of the hand, the skin was as thin as paper, the oil was shiny, the size was full and round, and a fragrance hit her head, and it also exuded steaming heat.

She was so hungry that she couldn't care so much, so she put one foot on the bench, buried her head and feasted. When Granny Hua saw her gobbling up, she felt amused and surprised, when had she ever seen the always gentle and lovely Flower Room so informal.

"Put your legs down."

She heard the sound in her head and realized that she had lost her temper, she used to eat and live with men in the army, and over time she also learned to have a stinky problem. She stupidly put her legs upright with her hands, but she felt uncomfortable with her legs together, so she simply said to Granny Hua: "Mother-in-law, please give me another bowl." ”

Granny Hua agreed to go out, and when she saw that the people had gone away, she raised her feet again, "I promise, I will follow the rules in front of others in the future, but I am really used to it, and I am afraid that I will not be able to change it for a while." ”

"Were you a man before you died?"

She almost choked when she heard this, although she had a rough voice and looked magnificent, but she was not mistaken for a man.

She was about to argue something, but she saw Wen Yeting appear in front of her, leaning on the door frame and calling softly, "Between the flowers." ”

The sound frightened her and she choked up, and she beat her chest with her hand and slowly answered, "Hmm! ”
