Chapter 0879 past sins (tenth)
"You know, I thought about the 'Greedy Copper Ghost King' back then, and I followed Lord Houtu God for a long time..."
At this moment, under the big stone, he claimed to be a greedy copper ghost king and murmured in a low voice: "I even have a longer time to follow the Lord of Lingtu, but at that time, hehe, I made some mistakes caused by rashness and arrogance, and I was imprisoned here by Lord Houtu God.
Guan Heng held his shoulder and asked, "I see that your appearance seems to be somewhat similar to that of Lingtu..."
"Hahaha, that's of course. countless years ago, the Hotu God wanted to create some creations, so he created the image of the spiritual land according to my appearance, and the blue-black snake according to the appearance of another ancient ferocious beast."
The Greedy Ghost King recalled the events of that year and was quite emotional: "When Lingtu was just created, he was a fool who knew nothing. I taught him many things step by step. Because of his similar appearance, we even called each other brothers, but... many years later, I turned my face to him because of something!"
Since he opened his mouth, the Greedy Ghost King hadn't talked to others for a long time, he told Guan Heng everything about the past.
Back then, the Greedy Copper Ghost King turned out to be a minor official under the command of the Golden God Rushou. Because he was careless when he kept the Golden God's secret treasure, he lost a part of it. The Golden God was furious and wanted to execute him.
It happened that the God of Houtu came to Rushou as a guest. He was soft-hearted and asked for a few words of affection for the Greedy Copper Ghost King. Rushou said, "It's okay to spare this guy, but my subordinates will not use such a dereliction of duty, and they will be expelled from the Golden God Palace from then on."
When the Houtu God saw that the Greedy Copper Ghost King had nowhere to go, he left it with him. Years passed, and the master and servant were very harmonious. However, one day, the Greedy Copper Ghost King suddenly revealed the secret treasure that he lost when he was under Rushu's command. That thing was the Heavenly Produced Copper Gourd, which is the Copper Mother.
The things were not masterless at this time, but fell into the hands of a group of unknown guys. They used this thing as bait to force the Greedy Copper Ghost King to steal something from Houtu Xuan Palace as a condition for exchange.
Because for many years, the loss of Tianchan Zhuqing was a heart-wrenching knot in his mind because of his negligence in guarding his duties has always been a heart-wrenching knot in the heart of the Greedy Ghost King. He always wanted to retrieve Tianchan Zhuqing and return it to the Golden God Rushou, so as to prove that he was not a dereliction of duty.
So, the obsessed Greedy Tong sneaked into the secret room of Houtu Xuan Palace and happened to meet his good brother, the General Lingtu who was in charge at the time.
When the Greedy Copper Ghost King saw that his whereabouts were revealed, he begged the other party to let him go. However, his brotherhood for many years was not as loyal as the General Lingtu was determined to do his duty. He immediately attracted all the guards and immediately captured the Greedy Copper Ghost King.
After hearing the news, the Hotu God arrived carefully questioned the purpose of the Greedy Copper Ghost King and whom to instruct him to commit such a serious crime. Greedy Copper had no choice but to tell it to the truth. However, the Greedy Copper Ghost King was unknown, because he had only seen it twice, and he only heard the sound and did not see his appearance.
After hearing its words, the Houtu God couldn't help but shook his head and sighed. The ancestor of the earth spirit said something that he didn't know about greed for copper.
Over the years, I felt that the Greedy Ghost King worked hard and worked hard by his side, and the Earth God decided to give it a reward, which was to help the Greedy Ghost King recover the lost celestial vermicelli, and let it return it to Rushou in person, so that it could save a trace of dignity for itself.
Moreover, those Tiancai Zhunhuang had really been retrieved by the Houtu God for a while and were about to return it to the Greedy Copper Ghost King. Unexpectedly, this guy was fooled by a mysterious force. The other party used the fake Tiancai Zhunhuang to lure Tiancai Zhun to commit the serious crime of stealing things. The most annoying thing was that the Greedy Copper Ghost King actually believed it without doubt.
In fact, the God of Houtu also knew that the greedy copper was used by bad people, but if he was forgiven, he would neither convince the public nor let the greedy copper ghost king remember his fault. So the God of Houtu imprisoned this guy in the underground palace of the mine pit on Xuangu Island, and sealed the celestial copper green he found in the huge rock that held the greedy copper ghost king, saying that it would be released in a few years.
"But since Lord Houtu God left, I have been looking forward to it day and night and remorse, but I have never seen Lord come to release me." The Greedy Ghost King couldn't help but say hatefully: "I think I have probably forgotten me completely?"
Speaking of this, the Greedy Copper Ghost King paused for a moment and continued to say: "After a long time, the original spiritual energy in my body has been wiped out. In order to wait until the day I am released, I continue to absorb the surrounding demon souls and ghosts to maintain my vitality. Humph, now it has become like this, so I call myself the "Ghost King"."
"You're wrong about being imprisoned."
Hearing this, Guan Heng hugged his shoulder and said, "As far as I know, a long time ago, the Five Elements God of Tuwei had disappeared at the same time. No one knew when they left or where they went, so it makes sense that no one came to release you."
"What?! The Five Elements Gods have disappeared?"
After hearing this, the Greedy Ghost King changed his face immediately. It whispered to himself: "No wonder...no wonder... I have always felt that the evil energy in the world has gradually overwhelmed the spiritual energy, but the five gods did not come out to deal with this matter. It turned out that they had disappeared."
Guan Heng suddenly asked: "Greedy Copper Ghost King, didn't you say that Tiansheng Zhugui was blocked on the huge rock that pressed him? Why did I see that this huge rock cracked a huge gap?"
"Oh, you don't know that over the past hundreds of years, the Tiancai Zhuqing sealed in the boulder has a trace of spiritual heart, and has a sense of self. He has begun to be restless in the boulder, wanting to get out of trouble."
The Greedy Ghost King shook his head helplessly, and then said, "Just more than ten years ago, I felt that the changes in the world suddenly arose. At that time, the seal of Houtu God was weakened to the extreme. The huge rock burst into a crack, and the Tiansheng Zhuqing escaped."
Speaking of this, the Greedy Ghost King shook his head in annoyance: "At the beginning, there was no other place to go to Tiansheng Zhugui. In addition, it was located on a deserted island on the water surface. It was afraid of places close to the water, so it could only wander around the mine canyon, and occasionally it would return to the sealed rock to rest and recuperate."
However, in recent years, the number of times Tiansheng Zhuneng has returned has decreased. The Greedy Ghost King is afraid that it will fall into the hands of bad people and be used as a crime, so he also wants to break free from the shackles of the huge rock and find it back.
But because he has been imprisoned for a long time, the power of Greedy Copper is too weak. Just devouring some weak demon souls and monsters, it is impossible to restore more than 30% of the power he used to.
