Lin Chuan was overjoyed when he saw the Zhong brothers and sisters, and was about to go up and say hello, when he heard Xun Zi exclaiming: "How could you two escape from the butcher's silk!"
"You want to trap me with this trick, you kid, you must be looking down on me too much." Zhong Lai sneered.
"You..." Xunzi wanted to reply, but was afraid that the other party would kill him in anger, so he suppressed his words.
"Xiao Hui, please take this little red coat away first. This little ghost is clever. It would be good to take him back and tame him, so he can be a ghost servant." Zhong Lai said calmly, not taking Xi Zi to heart at all.
When Xun Zi saw Zhong Hui approaching him, he was immediately frightened and backed away. He could sense the Xuan Yin energy in the other party, which he could not compete with at all.
Zhong Hui's soul-catching eyes were filled with white light, and the cock floated towards Xiao Hui uncontrollably. His face was horrified, and he turned around and ran away desperately, waving his hands and feet randomly in the air, like a person who was about to drown in water.
.
Lin Chuan suddenly stepped in front of Xun Zi with a smile on his face: "Xiao Hui, stop it. This ghost brother is a friend, not an enemy. I have met him once. If it hadn't been for his help just now, I might have died."
.”
"Seriously?! Don't let Ah Chuan be deceived by his lies." Zhong Lai frowned and warned.
Lin Chuan nodded solemnly, and then asked: "Brother Zhong heard how much of the conversation I had with the red-robed ghost just now?"
"Nine times out of ten, I understand the Ghost Emperor's plan, and I absolutely cannot let it come to fruition." Zhong Lai said, his tone unprecedentedly solemn.
"Understood, for no other reason than for the lives of nearly one million valley residents, the candle cannot be extinguished." Lin Chuan agreed, glancing at Xizi behind him.
Xunzi walked forward timidly and said, "Don't worry, everyone. I, Xunzi, am not an evil spirit who helps the emperor to do evil. What I did before was all helpless."
"What a helpless move? Is the Ghost King threatening or tempting? You might as well come and tell me." Zhong Lai crossed his arms and looked at the ghost child in front of him with interest.
Yan Zi cast a look at Lin Chuan asking for help. Lin Chuan smiled but said nothing and raised his eyebrows, which meant that I can't save you even if you don't tell me.
In fact, Lin Chuan also wanted to hear what benefits the three ghosts of Xunzi received from the Ghost Emperor and came here to do this destructive act.
Xunzi couldn't bear the sharp gazes of the three people, swallowed his saliva and said: "Actually, it's not coercion or inducement, but...but..."
"But what!" Zhong Lai moved to face Xizi, his eyes were fierce and his tone was serious.
"I said it was for the great cause of the ghost clan...do you believe it?" Xunzi asked weakly.
The three of them looked at each other, and then laughed to varying degrees.
Among them, Zhong Lai laughed the most exaggeratedly, leaning forward and back, with tears streaming down his face. If Zhong Hui hadn't pinched him twice, Zhong Lai might have died laughing.
"The great cause of the ghost clan...hahaha...a fierce ghost actually has such an ambition...hahaha...little red coat...do you believe it yourself...hahaha..." Zhong Lai still smiled lifelessly, his flowing silver hair sweeping across Xunzi's face.
go.
Xunzi's expression was a bit ferocious. He felt that his noble soul had been trampled on by this silver-haired boy, and more than once.
However, this child is too powerful and his background is not simple. He is angry but dare not express it. How can a fierce ghost not have ambitions? One day I will become the Ghost King. No matter which Pluto descendant you are, I will definitely kill you.
The white hair on the top of his head was shaved off.
Lin Chuan was a little embarrassed, and then he understood why Xunzi calmed down with just a few words in Jiuxi Valley. This guy was indeed ambitious.
"Ahem!" Lin Chuan cleared his throat, changed the subject and asked: "I heard you say before that those two people took this risk because their end was approaching. The ghost clan still has a lifespan. Don't say that this is true. That ghost
Can the emperor change his fate?"
Xun Zi was about to answer, but he was overtaken by Bai Shitong Zhong Lai: "Ghosts are the rebirth of humans. If they are nourished by yin energy, they can live for more than a hundred years. If there are no other opportunities after that, they will turn into mist.
Disappear into the void."
Seeing Lin Chuan asking another question, Zhong Lai seemed to know what he was asking, and then explained: "Ghosts, like other living beings, can increase their longevity through practice, but the practice of ghosts is a little different. Generally, ghosts are nourished by yin energy, and their life expectancy during life is
Memories will be awakened, evil thoughts will rise, and good thoughts will wither, and then turn into fierce ghosts. Fierce ghosts cannot improve their cultivation simply by sucking in yin energy. They need to suck in the yang of living creatures to improve."
Zhong Lai paused and continued: "Generally, evil ghosts have no resistance to Yuan Yang, and they devour Yuan Yang crazily. The remaining bits of humanity are also eliminated by it, and eventually become evil ghosts. But some highly intelligent evil spirits can control it.
It is my own desires and worries about gains and losses that have prevented these highly intelligent ghosts from becoming evil ghosts."
Zhong Lai paused deliberately when he said this, and looked at Xizi meaningfully.
Lin Chuan suddenly realized that this was probably the reason why the Ghost King sent these three ghosts. Only by being able to control his own powerful ghosts could he complete the mission assigned by the Ghost King.
Otherwise, if it were those ordinary evil spirits, they would probably be unable to stop themselves from killing as soon as they entered the valley.
"In addition to being promoted to an evil ghost, there is another way to increase your lifespan, which is to bathe in the Xuanyin Pool. All ghost tombs in the ten directions have a Xuanyin Pool. The pool is condensed with Xuanyin Qi. The rich Xuanyin Qi can also
Cleanse his soul and soul, thereby achieving the purpose of increasing his lifespan."
Before, Xunzi was indifferent, saying that Zhonglai was an expert in the ghost realm, but when he heard the three words "Xuanyin Pool", Xunzi's face suddenly became ugly. Xuanyin Pool is the secret of the ghost realm.
Outsiders have no way of knowing about its existence. He only heard about it from the Ghost Emperor today.
The Ghost Emperor also ordered him to make a vow not to tell outsiders. He did want to bathe in the Xuanyin Pool, but this was not his main purpose. He sincerely hoped that the Ghost Territory could take over Central Continent and sweep across the wastelands.
"Xiao Hongyao, what I said is right!" Zhong Lai squinted his eyes and looked at Xizi.
Xunzi rolled his eyes and said calmly: "What Little Pluto said is true, but Xunzi did come here for the adventure of Ghost Territory. Xuanyin Pool is just a dispensable addition to me."
The sound of "Little Pluto" seemed to have won Zhong Lai's heart. Zhong Lai held his head high and his chest suddenly taller. Seeing that he didn't seem to be faking it, his expression softened a lot and he continued: "You have the mark of the Ghost Emperor on your body.
Even if I let you go, the Ghost Emperor will not let you go easily, so why not stay with me..."
"Little Pluto's good intentions are appreciated by Xuzi. But once he is a ghost, he will always be a ghost. Although Xuzi has a low level of cultivation, he also knows that humans and ghosts have different paths, and he is determined not to serve his two masters. I forgive Xuzi for not being able to obey his orders."
Xun Zi's young face showed unprecedented determination, and Lin Chuan also thought about asking for mercy, but Zhong Lai smiled.
"Hey, did I say that I would accept you as a ghost servant? You are so smart and loyal to the ghost clan, how could I dare to accept you as a servant? I just let you stay with me temporarily. After this hurdle, you can leave on your own.
