Chapter 490: Follow-up of the Heroic and Pseudo-Brother Country 3
Is this the room of the Ghost King and his wife?
That's not right. This is not the backyard. If it were a lady, she should put it in the backyard and occupy the main house.
But this place is located in the center, so it should be used as a guest room.
Wu Han opened the woman's clothes.
Most of the clothes are worn by women, mostly in white, light yellow, and elegant styles. In my imagination, I should be a graceful, delicate, and quiet woman with a smile.
Is it his sister?
Wu Han thought of this possibility. Rumor has it that the Ghost King has a beautiful sister.
Why would brother Liu Shen keep clothes here? Or a python robe. This is a formal dress. How could it be placed in his sister's room?
Wu Han dug out a lot of white silk ribbons from the drawer, and when he opened them again, they were all filled with this kind of white silk.
Touching the soft white silk, Wu Han wondered: What do you need so much white silk for?
Suddenly I thought that women would use some cloth and silk when they menstruate. Could it be a menstrual belt?
Wu Han is really not good at this. He can only take out one for collection and ask his wife later.
I'm just more curious about the owner of the room. Is this a room for one person? Or a room for two people?
Fourth, the Ghost King destroyed the Tianyu Kingdom in the second year and established the An Kingdom.
The old beggar looked at the person writing eagerly, as if he was being valued. The old beggar looked like you were making a fuss out of a molehill, and sneered, "Not only the plague, but also typhoid fever, and cannibalism!"
"Did you know that the Ghost King has thirteen little ghosts and millions of ghost soldiers under his command?"
It seemed that he wanted to take something but these guys marked it down and prevented him from touching it.
Wu Han let out a sigh of relief. If he really ate human brains, he would suspect that he was the Ghost King.
Wu Han's heart was filled with turmoil. He had really killed a dragon. The emperor had only been in the capital for three years before killing a dragon?
"Slaughtered the city?"
"After spinning," Zhou held up a chopstick and a knife to indicate the action, "the knife inside can separate the flesh and bone, killing him directly."
Wu Han was completely shocked. There was actually a country that existed in that short five-year gap.
Wu turned his head in confusion.
Shake his head.
As long as he puts his feet forward, the rats will bow and prepare to attack; if he puts his feet back, the rats will relax.
"Xianfu is at home?"
"Because it sounds exaggerated and intrusive?" Zhou.
"Especially the thirteen brats, they were so fierce. At that time, I went to hit the city wall with everyone, trying to grab something to eat. The brat directly ordered the hot soup to be poured down and scalded the people alive."
Wu Han sorted it out and finally put a big question mark next to "millions of people died".
The next day, Wu Han brought a bunch of wine and food and tried to applaud the rats. However, they were blocked from the outside of the palace and could not even enter the palace.
First of all, this besieged city is the city where Ghost King Tu used to be.
"royal?"
On the way, he met Zhou Hanlin (Hanlin was a position) and Zhou Xiantao. This person was a colleague of his. He entered the official position a year earlier than him, so he called him "brother" according to his position.
"Then did you know that the main culprit of the plague is rats?"
Wu Han thought about it, turned his head, and suddenly met a pair of eyes. He was so frightened that he backed away, tripped himself, and fell to the ground. When he looked closer, he saw that it was a mouse.
Still nodding.
After Wu Han left, the little beggar who had been staying beside the old beggar asked, "Master, are everything you said true?"
Shake his head.
Wu Han could only return in vain. He summarized the information again: "King of ghosts, Liu Shen. Ugly? Cruel in nature? Kill the dragon. He has a younger sister, who is beautiful? My younger sister-in-law is the emperor. Is there a close relationship between brother and sister?" After summarizing, he
Get up and go to the besieged city to find beggars.
"The city was full of people who had been burned to death, their skins sticking to the walls."
"Three years?"
Everyone was amazed and asked the old beggar to elaborate. The old beggar hurriedly waved his hands and said, "I can't tell you. I will be taken away by ghosts if I tell you."
"Being an official?"
Wu Han introduced, "I am a historian and I want to write history."
The rat actually responded - nodded.
Both ghost towns are protected by rat spirits, so there must be some secret.
nod.
Still no response.
"Plague?!" Wu Han wrote quickly.
Can't speak?
"Is she marryable?"
"We stayed there that night, and guess what we saw?"
nod.
Still no response. Is it too difficult? Brother Rat can’t understand?
"Guess what this is." Zhou said, explaining, "It is shaped like a wooden barrel and is divided into four layers. Each layer is equipped with a sharp knife in each section. The handle is on the outside. People outside can push and rotate it."
"Nothing. There are a lot of doubts."
This is even more strange. My elder brother is a king, so how can the person who married into his wife be an emperor?
Wu Han wrote down in his notebook, "Sister-in-law is the emperor??"
Zhou Xiantao shook his head with a solemn expression, "Have you heard the legend of the Ghost King?"
With this in mind, Wu Han instantly understood all his thoughts and tried his best to write down what the old beggar said.
"Then what's her name?"
"Maybe I can help." Zhou Xiantao said. "My ancestors were historians, you know, right? So I know some things."
No. Wu Han looked carefully and saw that it was not a house rat. It was another species of rat.
"Do you know what's going on with the plague?" Zhou said lightly.
Anseong does feel like a huge tomb.
The rat nodded.
Wu Han continued, "Is he a noble?"
"What kind of aristocrat can he be who is not an official, doesn't do business, and doesn't idle at home? The emperor?" Wu Han muttered.
Wu Han looked at the outstretched hand in surprise, and handed over the white silk ribbon in his arms doubtfully.
"From now on, I will never go to a ghost town again, not even either ghost town! I won't go to any place where there is a ghost king!"
Wu Han was surprised when he looked at the renovated city walls.
"In the end, guess what I saw?"
"Oh, so many people saw it!"
"I'm telling you, come here. There are ghosts there! There are no people in the ghost town, it's all ghosts! I heard it all!"
"..." Wu Han looked at the rat's entire set of movements in surprise. Then one rat stared at the other with big eyes.
"Ghosts also have to arrest people according to the book of life and death." Wu Han comforted with a smile.
"I'm telling you, you can't say it was me. I'm afraid ghosts will catch me and eat me."
Sixth, monsters are prevalent, and monster quotes flow out from the imperial city. There is also a rat spirit that has become a spirit next to the ghost general! It is very big!
Seventh, during the three years of Anguo's reign, the world was peaceful and prosperous, and everyone thought that a prosperous age was coming.
The entire city is very dilapidated, and there are signs of burns from the fire.
Wu was confused.
While everyone was amazed, someone summarized the ghost king's story into a book called "The Ghost King's Biography", and processed the ghost king's origin into a ghost king who escaped from the underworld and led his soldiers to kill people for fun. Then, in order to cultivate his integrity and kill demons,
He founded a country and was determined to do the right thing, but God refused to recognize it and killed the ghost king! The entire imperial city became a ghost grave, and thousands of ghosts were buried!
Wu Han walked to Ancheng.
Are there really fairies?
"The ghost king wears it?"
To prove it, the little beggar told all the stories his father had told him.
"That day I was so angry that I wasn't willing to kill the Ghost King. I also chopped up the entire Imperial City. The entire Imperial City turned into a ghost grave! Do you think it's scary?"
"..." Wu Han listened to a very exciting story. Then Wu Han dragged the old beggar to break the bank of the Lan River, the Zhang family and everything he knew about that time. He unexpectedly discovered more things.
Still nodding.
nod.
no response.
"What is this?" Wu was curious.
"We were just stunned."
"Be good, don't be afraid."
"Human? You said this is a killing machine?!" Wu was shocked.
"Master, I'm scared."
"That year there was a severe drought, and I was wandering around with the big guys. I heard that the ghost king was taken from the Wang family. Which Wang family? Isn't there just one Langya Wang family? The one who becomes the emperor! Okay, don't interrupt, I forgot what I said."
"The Ghost King was so angry that he sent a column of black smoke into the sky and fought with the sky for eight hundred rounds! In the end, he was struck to death by thunders from the sky!"
Wu Han wrote down, ghost. "Why ghost?"
Wu Han said, "Because of the massacre of the city and killing people?"
The late emperor should also know about Anguo and the Ghost King!
After walking a few steps, he found two rats appearing at the courtyard gate, their eyes shining, staring at him dimly.
Shake his head.
The rat didn't respond.
Eighth, the Ghost King was struck to death by lightning, and the imperial city Ancheng was also struck to death.
It doesn’t seem too difficult, but it’s wrong.
"Impossible! This is too shocking!" Wu stood up.
nod.
Wu Han thought for a while and thought of a possibility, "The one who married into the wife..."
"Because it was struck by lightning!"
"Brother Wu, can you collect some interesting history?"
"noble?"
"Are there the Ghost King's clothes in the cabinet?"
Hmm... "Eye disease?"
Wu Han was sure that there must be a secret here. But what the secret was was unknown. The last clue was the current Holy Emperor.
no response.
"The Ghost King is the emperor of Anguo?"
"In the end, they even used food to lure us in."
How could a country created by an emperor who could kill dragons and demons be destroyed in just three years? There was not even a trace - no, ghost grave Ancheng.
Shake his head.
Wu Han wanted to go to the study to have a look again, but found that the doors of every room were closed and there were a bunch of rats staring at him.
"Two ghost soldiers!"
Ninth, the current emperor may know something else.
Shake his head.
"Are you curious about the number of casualties? It's definitely one million." Zhou Xiantao confirmed.
"I rushed over there with the other guys. I thought we could grab it if there were many people."
"What do you want them to say?"
Some people wondered, "What's the story of the Ghost King? Tell it and listen to it. As promised, this is yours."
Still no response.
"A year of existence?"
The rat nodded again.
The mouse took the white silk ribbon and ran to the drawer. He stepped on the drawer and pushed the cabinet with his hands to open the drawer. Then he quickly folded the white silk ribbon and put it back in the drawer.
"We thought we were hallucinating from hunger, so we dug holes faster."
"Let me tell you, there was a severe drought that year and the Lan River burst its banks. That old man from the Zhang family didn't want to fight if he couldn't afford to lose. Why did he blow up the bank?"
"..."
It seemed that the relationship between the two was unusual. Wu Han thought about it and realized that the Ghost King's sister-in-law was also an important figure. Then he tried to ask, "Who is the Ghost King's sister married to?"
Fifth, the territory of Anguo that year was exactly the same as it is today! At that time, there was a very famous ghost general, and he was accompanied by a very good-looking young man. The young man was from a noble family - it is said that he even got married, and they also promoted male-male marriage.
system.
Wu Han asked again, "Sister Ghost King has a foot disease?"
What exactly happened back then.
"Everyone was so scared that they went crazy. They could run away, but some couldn't."
"Of course it's true. What am I saying if it's not true? That's something to be recorded in history books. Do you know what history books are? It's for future generations to read. Let them know who their ancestors were and what they did.
What."
"Yes, I heard that the ghost king robbed millions of loads of grain from the Wang family, and everyone could not finish it even if they went in to eat it."
Except for the pampered people, the life span of ordinary people basically ends in their thirties and forties, and they cannot live as long as sixty or seventy.
A few days later, the little beggar was chased out of the teahouse for paying. The little beggar said angrily, "Hey, I'm not curious about it. These stories are not as good as the ghost king story told by my father."
"Really? Is it because of the plague?" Wu Han asked.
Tried to say hello, no response.
"You're asking me about Jie Di and the Zhang family? Don't interrupt! We are just talking."
Wu Han turned around and returned to Tianhe Imperial City.
Zhou continued, "You can throw hundreds of people in at one time."
However, being able to develop and then be eliminated within five years must be similar to the bandits who occupied the mountains as kings and the emperor as the country. They were destroyed soon after they were established.
This is so strange. Wu Han asked one after another, "The emperor of Anguo?"
"Someone came out of the city and brought all the human flesh inside! Note, it was through the wall! Not opening the door!"
Don’t you have a cold against the Ghost King?
"Ever killed a dragon?"
"That's right!" Wu Han clapped his hands. He suddenly remembered that Zhou Xiantao's ancestor was a historian. He was born as an admonisher, so he would naturally have the habit of recording history. He took out the notebook and handed it to Zhou Xiantao, "Take a look, is there anything you want to add?"
"Oh, I was really blind and blinded before following it. You don't even know what's inside!"
Wu Han suddenly thought of a person, the late emperor who passed away five years ago. He was from that era and had a noble background. He should have heard about this country. So the current emperor might have heard about it from the mouth of the late emperor.
Indirect candidates.
Everyone knows a little about the ghost town, and the fear passed down from generation to generation is profound. In addition, there are indeed weird things there, and no one wants to go there. But no matter how specific it is, it is not as clear as what Beggar said.
"This is something I have personally experienced. There was a severe drought that year——"
"The enemy. They say they are not human, but ghosts! The ghost town is full of ghosts!"
"Hey! Who told you that the ghost is the ghost in the ghost town!"
The rat raised its head, obviously reacting.
Shake his head.
Second, the Zhang family blew up the embankment because of their grudge, causing the Lan River to burst its embankments and causing disaster to people all over the world.
"Heaven does not allow the Ghost King to become emperor! He said he has changed his luck!"
If you're not an official, "Do you want to do business?"
Wu nodded.
"When?" Wu Han immediately grasped the key point, "Severe drought?"
"Really the emperor?"
nod.
Third, that year was a year of great disasters, with floods, droughts, plagues, injuries, cannibalism, and millions of people died. Among them, the ghost king killed the most. According to the old beggar, it was the ghosts under the ghost king, and the ghost soldiers ate the most.
kill.
Wu Han wrote down on the paper "Ancheng, the destruction of Anguo and the secret of the Ghost King."
"We held our breath, thinking they had discovered us. Fortunately, there was no reaction. But we heard something that I don't want to think about in my life."
"Then the Ghost King himself is very powerful?"
"Ugly?"
no response.
"Ever suffered from eye disease?"
"Why are you asking about that?" The old beggar was very cautious.
Could it be that you don’t know?
"Do you know why the Ghost King is the king?"
no response.
He suddenly remembered something and said cautiously, "Is there Anguo?"
Finally he responded and nodded.
nod.
"No one is entering! Do you know? If you enter, you will no longer be human!"
Shake his head.
Wu Han thought about what else to ask, and habitually walked around to think about questions. As soon as he walked out of the room, the door was immediately closed from the inside, and he heard the sound of the door being bolted.
Wu Han wanted to see the palace, and stepped on the broken wall to go in. Suddenly, rats appeared under his feet, and Wu Han backed away in fright.
Wu Han took out a few coins to please the old beggar and asked, "Do you know anything about Ghost King, Ghost City, or Anguo?"
"I was about ten years old at the time, I was growing tall, and I felt very hungry. I don't know why I was deceived into hearing someone trick me into digging a hole."
No wonder it is called a ghost town. It turns out that monsters have been waiting here for generations.
"Ever suffered from foot problems?"
Shake his head.
"Hey! What does that have to do with anything? He is the King of Ghosts, because he is both a ghost and a king!"
When Wu Han walked out of Ancheng, he saw the majestic mountains surrounded by mountains in the distance. He suddenly thought that if there is an imperial city, there will naturally be a mausoleum. Is there an imperial mausoleum here?
Wu Han wanted to go around the corner to the mountains, but was besieged by rats again. And this time there were more. He even vaguely saw a rat standing behind, just like what Beggar mentioned.
"One million? Are you sure?" Wu Han was surprised, this is a huge number.
Wu Han was completely stunned. No wonder it was difficult to find the history of that country. It turned out that the era was so turbulent that it was a miracle that anyone could survive.
The rat stretched out its little black hand.
"Yes, but a lot is not advisable."
"merchant?"
"What's so uncertain about this? The plague killed everyone on the ground that year, and no one dared to touch it."
"Yes, there was a severe drought and a lot of people died. It was said that a million people died."
"Then you have asked the right person. There are not many people who have survived from that era. I happen to be one of them, and I know a little bit about the ghost king and the ghost city." The old beggar started talking instantly.
Zhou took the pen and drew a machine on the paper. It had a long blade on the inside and a long wooden stick on the outside. It could be pushed together in layers.
Nothing much can be seen today.
Wu Han was interested in this short-lived dynasty, but he was more interested in the Ghost King and his family.
Wu Han understood that he could not advance even if he did.
When Wu Han saw it, he was surprised and said, "Your Majesty?"
Wu Han was confused.
Wu Han asked, "Brother, is this the ghost king's sister's room?"
If all the ghost kings become emperors, then the sister-in-law who has married into the family is just a little person who just occupies a small village and becomes the emperor.
Wu Han was suddenly curious about what kind of man the Ghost King that the world was afraid of was. And whether his sister and brother-in-law were really immortal and noble.
"Eating brains?"
Zhou Sumu, "To be precise, it's the Ghost King's cannibal machine. Those millions of people were killed by the Ghost King's killing machines one after another, but were eaten by him and his little ghosts!"
I found this old beggar on the street. A bunch of beggars around him listened to his bragging. It seemed that he was a little boss.
Wu Han got up and went to Guifen Ancheng.
Three years is really a short time.
"Do you know why Anguo collapsed within three years of its establishment?"
The rat nodded heavily.
"Two years?"
Wu nodded. He saw it when he was reading in the Hanlin Academy. Suddenly he thought of the book he read, "You mean... the plague he caused?"
"That's right." Zhou said calmly, "He wants to eat people, and it would be too troublesome to kill them one by one. So we just use rats to spread the plague and kill them all directly. If you want to eat, just rush to the scene and eat."
"But, won't he die?" Wu was surprised.
"Of course he has an antidote," Zhou affirmed. Then he added, "Do you know how he won the battle and quickly established his country?"
