Chapter 278: The Purpose of Returning to Yang County
Zhang Xiao changed back to his original form after dancing for a while, panting a little tiredly, he was anxious to see the little beggar as if nothing happened, it seems that it is protected by rules, and he has no way to take it at all, can he only become its stand-in?
At this time, there was no time for Zhang Xiao to think, the red mist had already surrounded Zhang Xiao's side, everything in his eyes had disappeared, and all he could see was the endless red mist, and he didn't even know if he was still standing on the ground. {Dagger Novel}
Finally waited until everything was done, the little beggar walked slowly towards Zhang Xiao, what he needed to do now was to knock Zhang Xiao's soul out of his body, so he could be reborn, and Zhang Xiao also understood the little beggar's intentions, and subconsciously began to retreat, trying to keep a distance from it.
But when Zhang Xiao was at a loss, the red mist quickly ran past a person, who was looking left and right, and was immediately excited when he found Zhang Xiao, and immediately ran to Zhang Xiao's side, and said, "Zhang Xiao, I finally found you, you still have a body, then we still have a chance to be saved, and everyone's hope is handed over to you." β
Zhang Xiao was immediately stunned when he heard the familiar voice, isn't this Zhu Pinhang's voice? So he turned his face and found that Zhu Pinhang was beside him at this time, and from the induction, he was just a soul without a body, needless to say that this was the real Zhu Pinhang, and judging from his words, there was still a chance to be rescued.
Zhang Xiao was both happy and worried at this time, and hurriedly said, "Ping'an, it turns out that you are here, what happened to you, how could you be occupied by ghosts, with your strength, you should be able to maneuver for a while." β
Zhu Pinhang didn't have time to answer Zhang Xiao's question, and said impatiently, "Don't listen to the words of these ghosts, what they say is not all correct, we still have a chance to get rid of the transaction, but now it can only be done by you." β
This news is like heaven for Zhang Xiao, as long as he can survive and pay as much as he wants, he asked, "Then you say quickly, now that time is pressing, my tricks are completely ineffective against it, and the body horse will be occupied by it." β
During the period when Zhang Xiao and Zhu Pinhang were talking, the little beggar got a lot closer to Zhang Xiao, all Zhang Xiao could do was keep a distance from it as much as possible, so he started to run in this unknown world, how far away he could from the little beggar.
Zhang Xiao ran in front, Zhu Pinhang followed all the way behind, and said very anxiously, "You must remember what I say now, the day of returning to the sun is the Halloween of the underworld, and it is the idea of giving ghosts a chance to replace, in order to attract the attention of ghosts who like to make trouble, so as to maintain order." But the underworld does not intend to let these ghosts get a chance to be reborn, otherwise all the ghosts want to be reborn in this way, which will only make the underworld fall into a more chaotic situation, so this is actually a game, once a deal is reached, then both parties to the transaction will get the right to use this body, if the soul wins, everything is normal, and if the ghost wins, it can directly get the priority of reincarnation, and the soul will wait for a long time instead of the ghost, waiting for reincarnation or the next transaction. β
After listening to Zhu Pinhang's explanation, Zhang Xiao's eyes lit up, it turned out that this deal was to compete, and he almost lost them, and he also said that he had a chance to win, so he asked, "It turns out to see who occupies the body first, so as long as I don't let it get close to me, but why can't I attack it, isn't it unfair?" Since the underworld doesn't want them to be reborn, the soul should restrain them." β
Before Zhu Pinhang finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhang Xiao, and said loudly, "I haven't finished speaking, don't interject, the trouble is behind, who doesn't want to be reborn directly if the ghosts who can get the chance to be reborn on the day of rebirth? β
Zhang Xiao was a little puzzled at this time, and asked at a different point, "You wait a minute, since ghosts can find loopholes in the rules, how can ghost officials not know, don't they take action?"
Zhu Pinhang immediately explained, "Of course there is action, this return to Yang County is a restriction measure set by them, as long as there is a return to Yang County, they don't want to leave here." β
Zhang Xiao didn't understand even more, when it came to the end, the ghost still had no way to be reborn, so what else was there to worry about, I felt that Zhu Pinhang didn't get to the point after talking for a long time, and said impatiently, "It's also that it is impossible for them to leave here, so what else is there to worry about, you just tell me how to defeat it?"
Zhu Pinhang's head was confused when Zhang Xiao asked, and he didn't know where he was talking about, so he scolded loudly, "Don't interrupt me, now I don't know the order of development." β
Zhu Pinhang thought for a while, straightened out his thoughts, and continued" This kind of red mist is not the breath that ghosts can emit, but can only be emitted by the young man of hell life, the young man likes to eat ghosts the most, but the size is too small and does not have the ability to hunt, so they use the red mist emitted by themselves to temporarily disguise themselves as ghosts, mixed with the ghosts to steal ghosts, such a disguise even the ghost official can not detect, so stealing ghosts has been successfully obtained, and then the red mist is used by ghosts, and the ghosts who are eligible to participate in the return to the sun collect red mist and turn into the same form as the soul into the human body, so as to drill the loopholes in the rules, and be reborn as a living person, which seriously affects the order of the underworldγ β
Zhu Pinhang finished describing the role of the red mist, and then said the purpose of building Huiyang County, saying, "The situation later became out of control, which aroused the strong attention of the prefecture, and felt that it was necessary to severely punish the ghosts of this kind of violations, so Huiyang County was established, and there is more than one Huiyang County in the world, and the specific number is only known to the relevant ghost officials, the purpose is not to let the ghosts gather in large numbers, but also to trap the ghosts in batches, as long as the ghosts cannot leave here." β
Zhang Xiao was relieved after hearing this, so that no matter what, it is impossible for the ghost to use his body to be reborn, as long as he snatches the body back, he said, "This is easy to do, since they can't leave here, then you tell me the way to defeat them, as long as you defeat them, and then leave here and have nothing to do with them." β
Zhu Pinhang saw that Zhang Xiao still didn't understand, and said" But there are no absolutes in the world, you still don't understand the seriousness of the situation, this red mist is all variables, if you want to live, the first step is to let the ghost occupy your body, so that the ghost has your ability to be considered fair, in order to start the battle for the body, and the red mist will continue to record your characteristics, pass the information to the ghost, and then the ghost can more realistically imitate your appearance, at the same time, the red mist will also disguise you as a ghost, so that the ghost can leave Huiyang County smoothly after completely imitating your appearance, and you become its stand-in, so it is not only strength, but more importantly, speed, otherwise even if you win in the end, will also be inseparable from this place because the soul is like a ghost, or it is no different from dying. β
According to Zhu Pinhang, his body must be occupied by the little beggar first, and then snatched back in the shortest possible time, it is really a redundant move, it seems that this matter is not only a vicious battle, but also a quick battle, but the opponent is a little ghost who is not even very good at controlling the red mist, it should not be difficult, Zhang Xiao has the heart to give it a try, it seems that this is the only way.
But while talking, Zhang Xiao and Zhu Pinhang had already run out a long way, but there was still a red fog around, and there was no end in sight.
Zhang Xiao immediately stopped and looked back, and found that the little beggar had not chased after him at this time, it was really weak, and it was definitely not a problem to defeat it, and now he had Zhu Pinhang to help, which was almost equivalent to victory.
However, Zhang Xiao's heart suddenly rose in a flustered mood, and he always felt that something was wrong, and when he looked at Zhu Pinhang, he suddenly thought, since he knew so much about returning to Yang County, why didn't he notice it when he first arrived in Huiyang County? Later, he was robbed of his body? And he was not in a hurry to get his body back, but he kept reminding himself here, it seems that there is a problem, is there a problem with this Zhu Pinhang?
Zhang Xiao asked Zhu Pinhang with some caution, "Ping'an, since you know so clearly, why didn't you say it when we first arrived in Huiyang County? What is the matter with your body being occupied now, with your strength, it shouldn't be like this, right?" And you should be able to snatch your body back now, why don't you go?"
