Originally, we abandoned my father-in-law in the prison, and I still feel a little guilty now, but when I see Father Haitang reaching out to me, I feel a little scared.
This old birdless guy must have bad intentions, otherwise he wouldn't be so sneaky.
"What do you want to do?" I asked in a low voice: "To tell you the truth, you are in the earthly world now. I may be a little afraid of you in the prison, but I still have many accomplices in this earthly world. You
Even if you are a purple level ghost, I may not be afraid of you."
I tried my best to look confident and my tone was neither condescending nor overbearing, so that the old fox would not dare to act rashly.
But Eunuch Haitang seemed to be frowning, as if he had something on his mind. He sighed in a low voice, and then said slowly: "Oh! Mr. Lin Yanglin! You are my nobleman, how could I have any bad intentions towards you?
What? Isn’t it true that our friendship in Tianlao is not profound?”
I sighed and thought about the scene in the prison, but I was still frightened. The old eunuch was bullying me, trying to intimidate me, and almost made me kneel down.
Thinking of the scene at that time, I still have a breath in my heart. I glared and said angrily: "Father-in-law, you almost made me kneel down in the prison at that time."
"Hey, my Mr. Lin, why are you like that blind Liu Chuan, always caring about these things? I think that Han Xin in the past also had crotch humiliation, I haven't asked you to give it to me yet
Kneel down..."
The more I looked at Haitang, the more I felt that this old guy had bad intentions. He refused to walk out of the alley, and I didn't dare to go in easily. I kept going back and forth, and this tug of war was probably not over. I shook my head and said, "Father, there's not enough time."
Good morning, I think if you have been hiding in this alley and trying to trick me into going in, you should give up as soon as possible. I will never go in. I have to leave, bye."
Haitang, the chief eunuch of the Ming Dynasty, obviously didn't know what "bye" meant, but he knew that I was leaving. He quickly said: "Master, don't leave! I don't want to go out because I'm afraid that others will see me. If you're worried,
, I’ll go out and see you. After we gain each other’s trust, how about we find a quiet place to discuss important matters?”
The old eunuch became more and more mysterious as he talked. At first, they were talking together, but in an instant they became discussing important matters together. If the feudal society is still here, will the current emperor be overthrown soon?
I was just about to think about it when I saw Father Haitang holding a dead cat and walking towards me from the alley.
I thought this guy was a bit scary, so I quickly prepared myself and reached into my pocket with my right hand to touch the moon-chasing sword.
Haitang walked up to me, waved her hands quickly, and said, "Master Lin, please don't, please don't do anything. How about this? Aren't you always worried about me and almost made you kneel down for me?"
I asked in confusion: "What are you...?"
The eldest eunuch Haitang quickly put the dead cat in his arms on the ground, then knelt down on his knees, bowed his head and said: "First Master... No, Master, from now on, you are my master!"
I was really shocked. I originally thought that Mr. Haitang had ulterior motives and was coming to murder me, but now it seems that my thinking was too wrong and that was not the case at all.
I wanted to help Father Haitang, but then I thought, no, what if the old eunuch smeared some poison on his body, or was waiting for a sneak attack on me? So I quickly controlled my thoughts and did not take action.
Eunuch Haitang seemed to be quite sincere and clicked his head three times in succession. Then he raised his head and looked at me pitifully and asked: "Master, can I get up?"
I still didn't react, and my whole mind was confused. I looked down at him and asked, "Mr. Haitang, are you out of your mind? Why do you suddenly accept me as your master?"
Haitang didn't get up. She still looked at me like a pug and said: "Master, it's not that I'm out of my mind, but I sincerely want to join you. You are a talented person..."
I wanted to kick him, and said with a wry smile: "Forget it, your ancient flattery methods are useless to us modern people. Mr. Haitang, you are not an idiot. After all, you have lived in a heavenly prison for hundreds of years.
, let’s talk directly, why do you suddenly want to join me?”
Haitang smiled, even a little shy, and said: "Okay, then I won't go around in circles with you. Since I want to join you, I must tell the truth. In fact, not long after I left the underground palace,
I realized that the environment outside this underground palace is not suitable for my survival."
I thought about it and seemed to understand that Haitang did this because of the Dark Fire Mysterious Pearl in my body. We have discussed it before. The energy outside the underground palace has basically been exhausted, so now even the indigo grade
Slightly taller ghosts cannot survive outside the underground palace and can only huddle inside the underground palace. Father Haitang is a purple grade ghost. If he wants to survive, there are only two ways. One is to attach to a living person and become an upper body.
Ghost, the other one is to stay close to me, always keep a safe distance from me, and absorb the energy emitted by the Nether Fire Mysterious Pearl on my body.
"But you can't follow me forever, right?" Now that I understood all this, I asked.
Eunuch Haitang asked in confusion: "Why not? The master I followed in the past has been with him from childhood to adulthood, my whole life!"
I smiled bitterly and said: "The past is the past, and the present is now. There was an emperor in the past, but where is it now? You are a ghost and I am a human being. Humans and ghosts have different paths. It is not an option for you to always follow me..."
Seeing my refusal, Haitang quickly said: "Master, there is another news. If you know it, you will definitely take me in."
As soon as I heard this, I asked, "Oh? Tell me?"
Haitang said: "Actually, after these people in our heavenly prison escaped from the underground palace, there were only two people who were vigorously pursued and killed by the entire underground palace. One was the silver-level old monster Hu Qingbo, and the other one was you, who swallowed the Nether Fire Mysterious Pearl.
Fusion of humans and ghosts..."
"They are chasing me, I know it in my heart." I whispered.
"If that's the case, then you must understand what level of masters are sent out to hunt you down in the underground palace. To be honest, what you need most right now is a safe bodyguard, especially for a purple-level ghost like me.
Very little, as long as you agree to take me in, Master, I am not bragging, those little shrimps in the underground palace are really not as discerning as my father-in-law!"
Mr. Haitang's eyebrows were beaming, it was like Lao Wang was selling his melons and boasting about himself.
As soon as I heard this, I looked at Father Haitang's fierce and loyal look, and I couldn't help but make a calculation in my mind.
Do you think I trust him? It’s impossible to say what kind of person Mr. Haitang is. I dare not say that I have a thorough understanding of him, but I generally know that this guy is definitely not a loyal person. We didn’t know anything about him in the prison last time.
I betrayed him without hesitation. If there is a chance in the future, he will definitely betray me without hesitation.
But fortunately, Haitang is a real villain and not a hypocrite. It is precisely because I know that he will definitely leave me without hesitation when I lose my use value, so I can use him without any guilt.
Thinking of this, I nodded quickly and said, "Stop kneeling. It's freezing cold. Don't ruin your precious old legs by kneeling."
When Eunuch Haitang heard this, he was overjoyed and asked, "Master, do you mean to accept me?"
I smiled bitterly and said: "Since you have been calling me master for so long, of course I have to accept you, otherwise wouldn't you be too aggrieved?"
Eunuch Haitang quickly put his hands on the ground, and a circle of icy blue ripples spread out where his hands contacted the ground. He stood up and said with a smile: "How can I care about these things with my master?"
I looked at Haitang, and I still felt that it was a bit ridiculous to accept a fierce ghost as a slave. Seeing that he now had a loyal expression on his face, I had to admire the change of this old slave.
"The last time we abandoned you and left the prison early, how did you escape?" I asked.
"Hey, it's just that Hu Qingbo got rid of Lan Jia at the critical moment and came to help Lao Yao deal with Ye You. However, neither Ye You nor Lan Jia died. We didn't care about killing them to silence them, so we ran away..." Haitang said
At this point, he was suddenly stunned: "Oh, Master, that's not good!"
