Volume 2: The Ghost King's Wife Chapter 13 Takes the Place
It seems that this Jiang Tao came prepared, most of the words he said to me before were false, but the fact that his sister was going to marry the ghost king was true.
That's why he had to find a way to find someone to replace his sister.
But what I wonder more is, why is he eyeing me?
I hadn't advertised my birthday before, so how did he know I was born on Halloween?
And I'm just a wisp of geism now, how can these people catch me?
Are they not human?
But no matter how I look at them, I don't think they are any different from ordinary people.
So he said to Jiang Tao: "Jiang Tao, are you thinking too naΓ―ve, doesn't the dignified ghost king know who he wants to marry, can he change it according to you?" I can understand that you want to save your sister's heart, I originally wanted to help, but if you treat me like this, aren't you afraid that I will retaliate in the future? β
"Revenge?" Jiang Tao laughed: "You are just a wisp of wandering soul now, how can you take revenge on me?" When you marry the ghost king, don't think about it in this life, what will you use to retaliate against me? β
I was escorted by those people and couldn't stand upright, but I still raised my head to look at him, and snorted coldly: "Just because you also want to detain me, haven't you heard that I am poisonous?" β
As I spoke, I looked at the two pairs of hands that were on my shoulders.
When they heard me say this, they also began to get nervous, and immediately looked at their hands, but they didn't seem to feel anything.
My heart sank, isn't the poison in my body hurting people now?
Jiang Tao was also a little worried at first, but when he found that they showed no signs of poisoning, he waved his hand and said, "Take her to put on makeup, you have to send it to the ghost king tonight, don't delay the hour!" β
Those people answered, and when they were about to leave with me, Jiang Tao said again: "You guys be cautious, she is just a ghost with poison that can't hurt people now, but you can't take it lightly, the antidote medicine is ready at any time, keep an eye on her, I'll go find Jiang Qi!" β
It seems that Jiang Tao knows a lot of things, and he has been on guard against me.
It's just that he watched those people leave with Jiang Qi just now, and now he has to go to her by himself, and he doesn't know what he thinks.
I don't have the heart to bother with this, anyway, the purpose of my coming here is to see the ghost king, as for what method to use, it's the same anyway.
Although Jiang Tao put me along, it was not a good thing, at least I successfully entered the territory of the ghost gate.
Otherwise, I don't know where to find the ghost king.
I was taken into a makeup shop by those guys, and there was only one makeup artist in the shop, and she had makeup on her face like a dead person, and she didn't look like a normal person.
I couldn't help frowning, even if it's a ghost door, it's all a living person, how can you wear such makeup to meet people? How can there be a business here?
But they didn't make me think about it, they just pressed me to the chair, and the makeup artist started pouring up on my face.
I didn't struggle, I just closed my eyes and tossed with her.
I was just secretly thinking about what I should say and do in front of the ghost king.
You have to smooth out these lines in your heart, so as not to be black-eyed when you get it.
To be honest, I am the head of the Shumen family, and in front of the head of the ghost sect, I shouldn't be afraid, after all, these sects were also related to each other back then.
It's just that a lot of things have changed with the times.
And I, the master of the Shumen family, has no other ability except for a hairpin, so it's not clear whether this ghost king will buy it.
But things have come to this point, and I can't help but back down.
Anyway, Bai Zimo is also looking for the ghost king, and with his ability, it is not difficult to find the ghost gate.
I have counted countless possibilities in my mind, and I probably have some countermeasures.
It wasn't until the makeup artist stopped that I slowly opened my eyes, but I was stunned by myself in the mirror.
In the mirror, I combed my hair in ancient costumes and wore antique makeup, which looked elegant and fresh, which was very different from my previous face.
If it weren't for the fact that the contours of my face were still similar, I wouldn't have believed that the person in the mirror was me.
I can't help but admire this makeup artist, she made herself look like a dead person, but she turned me into a fairy and descended to earth.
I thought I'd end up with a white dead face!
I was still admiring my beauty, and I didn't care that I was going to be given to the ghost king as the Nth wife for a while.
When the makeup artist told me to change my clothes, I woke up and looked at her and asked, "What are you going to change?" β
"Of course it's a bridal dress, do you want to dress like this and get on the sedan chair?" She squinted at me and shook her head disapprovingly.
Hmph, her expression is really underwhelming.
The powder was not so thick that it suppressed the displeasure on her face.
I shrugged my shoulders indifferently: "If you want to change, hurry up, I'm going to marry the ghost king, don't delay the time!" β
"Yo, you're still in a hurry, the ghost king's marriage is not as simple as you think, after tonight, you will disappear from this world, while you can still see the world now, just take a look at it, and have a good baby in the next life!"
The makeup artist said, motioning for the men to let go of me, and she was going to take me to change my clothes.
I honestly followed the makeup artist inside, and asked intentionally or unintentionally, "Why does the ghost king marry so many wives?" Haven't any of you ghost men resisted? β
"Rebellion? Who would dare to resist the order of the Ghost King? The makeup artist said: "Besides, we are born as people of the ghost gate, and death is the ghost of the ghost gate, and the ghost king is in charge of our life and death, he just marries a few more wives, what's the big deal?" β
"Then why did he marry someone born on Halloween, and he married one every eighteen years?" I asked, puzzled.
The makeup artist ignored me, just took out a set of red wedding dresses and handed it to me: "Put it on and try it!" It's not suitable, it's too late to change it now! β
I didn't have any intention to change the wedding dress, and I didn't really get married, so I took the clothes directly and said, "You go out for a while, I'll just wear it myself!" β
The makeup artist didn't say much, turned around and went out.
I silently took this big red wedding to the elder, and I didn't feel good in my heart, but I didn't expect to wear a wedding dress for the first time, and it turned out to be such a scene.
The last time I put on a wedding dress, I was in a coma and married Bai Zimo, and the clothes were still made of Bai Zimo with a snake.
But I didn't know about the wedding dress that time, and I didn't have any feelings.
But now it's real and it's wearing, and it's quite uncomfortable.
But only by doing this can I get close to the ghost king, understand the truth of the matter, and find out who snatched my soul out.
Only by getting close to the Ghost King can I have a chance to quickly find Bai Zimo and ask him to take me back to my body.
I don't want to be a ghost for the rest of my life, living in this ghost gate.
I put on my wedding dress, looked in the mirror, and looked like a classical beauty, I couldn't help but smile, and said to myself: "I didn't expect me to be ugly with makeup!" β
"It's not ugly, it's simply a fairy descending to earth!"
I was startled by the sudden voice, and I looked back, only to find Jiang Qi standing at the door, staring at me tightly.
"You are Jiang Tao's sister Jiang Qi?" I asked, leaning over to her.
She smiled at me, nodded and said, "Yes, my brother said that you are willing to marry the ghost king instead of me?" β
I do?
How should I take what she says?
In fact, I didn't think about what I was going to do when I came here with Jiang Tao.
But I never thought I was going to marry the ghost king instead of her!
"I'm going to say it's your brother forcing me, what will happen to you?" I grinned at her and said helplessly.
She walked slowly towards me, stopped just one step away from me, blinked and said, "My brother did it, he is so inhuman!" β
I chuckled in my heart, why did this Jiang Qi look so unhappy?
When she was followed by those people just now, she was obviously unhappy, but now that she knows that she can be free and doesn't have to marry the ghost king, why is she not happy?
What do you mean by that? Aren't you happy that your brother won't let you marry the ghost king? I looked at her puzzled, and asked the doubts in my heart.
"In the Ghost Gate, who doesn't want to marry the Ghost King? But there are conditions for marrying the ghost king.,Presumably you've heard of that condition.,I'm qualified.,This year it's been exactly eighteen years since the last ghost king married a wife.,When I was full of joy and thought I could become the ghost king's woman.,But my brother told me that he wouldn't agree.,These days he sent someone to follow me.,Don't let me go anywhere.,He also said,Will definitely find someone to replace me! β
"I don't understand, as a person from the ghost gate, what's wrong with marrying the ghost king, why does he have to interfere with me? And he wants to force you to marry, it's so inhumane! β
This Jiang Qi is also a straight intestine, in front of strangers, he said that his brother was inhuman, and it was natural to say that, it seems that he is usually very dissatisfied with his brother.
I don't know much about this ghost king now, so I can't guess what Jiang Tao is thinking, is he really afraid that his sister will be bullied if she marries the ghost king, or does he want to use me to get something?
I looked at Jiang Qi and saw that her cheeks were flushed with anger, so I whispered to her: "You are all from the ghost gate, you should know the ghost king, he has to marry a new wife every eighteen years, so is he an old man now?" β
Jiang Qi's face turned even redder, and he looked at me and said with a little resentment: "What are you talking about, the ghost king is not an old man, he has an ageless appearance, and he is the most beautiful man in our ghost sect!" β
Ageless? The first beautiful man?
Isn't that the same as Bai Zimo, who belongs to an alien species?
"No wonder you want to marry him, is it because you have taken a fancy to his prosperous appearance?" I looked at her a little teasingly.
Jiang Qi shook his head: "It's not all, it's just a ghost gate, there is no freedom, the scene you see now is nothing more than a performance, everyone is bitter in their hearts, if they can, who wants to live like now!" β
"Will it make any difference if you marry a ghost king?" I asked hurriedly.
She was a little confused and looked up at me: "At least eighteen years don't have to think about how to live, eighteen years later, reincarnation, beg not to return to the ghost gate!" After all, I've been with the ghost king for eighteen years, so it's still okay to ask for such a grace! β
So that's the case, that's why the makeup artist just said that I will disappear from this world after tonight, and then wish me a good baby in my next life.
I don't know much about the situation of the ghost gate now, so I can't understand her current mood, a girl who is like a flower and jade, in order to marry a person who has no feelings for herself in order not to be a ghost door person in 18 years.
And she also said that many people want this kind of thing, but the conditions are not met, and she is finally qualified, but her brother has to come forward to stop it.
I saw that she was very lonely, so I said to her, "Aren't all the people in the ghost gate inseparable from this place?" β
