"At that time, you were the daughter of a wealthy family. You had been well-dressed and well-off since you were a child. It was impossible for you to have any interaction with your senior brother. But it happened that year, your family suffered an accident. A fire destroyed your family business.
They also burned your parents to death. You managed to escape, but were burned in the fire and your appearance was completely disfigured. Your body was covered with sores and your throat was scorched hoarse. In the end, you could only live on the streets, begging for food.
It was the first thing that senior brother said when he saw you like that."
Shang Lingxue couldn't help but ask after hearing this: "What did he say?!"
The Ghost King shook his head: "I don't know. This is a matter between you. What I said is just what I heard from my senior brother later, as well as what I saw and heard myself."
"Then go on." Shang Lingxue looked quite disappointed. Considering that Wang Xu couldn't remember what happened in that life, perhaps that "first sentence" would become an eternal mystery.
The ghost king's narration continued: "Since you met, senior brother has stopped being a beggar. He has found a place to live, found a decent job, lived like an ordinary person, and took you into his home.
I don’t know what happened between you, and I don’t know why he fell in love with a mute woman whose appearance was completely disfigured. A year later, when I came to visit my senior brother, he had married you and said to me,
He will no longer return to his master's school. He will be an ordinary person and take care of you throughout his life.
I was very surprised at the time, but I didn’t know what to tell my senior brother. However, I respected his choice of life, so I went back to Guigu on my own and told the master about it. The master was not surprised when he learned about it, and said that it was an opportunity.
When the time came, he would retreat into seclusion and start practicing Guigu Taoism.
Before Master retreated, he told me that the world would undergo great changes in the near future, and because of my special status, I could not completely cut off the connections in the world. There would be a calamity that I had to deal with, so he asked me to go down the mountain and return to Zhao State to face the difficulties of my home and country.
Although I am not as good as Master, I am aware of the general trend of the world. Of course I know that the so-called great change is the rise of Qin. But at that time, I could not have imagined that Ying Zheng could destroy the six kingdoms, pacify the world, and claim to be the leader of the Qin Dynasty in such a short period of time.
First Emperor.
Many years later, I found out that there was another person behind Ying Zheng, that Le Cheng. The person who had only been on the mountain for a year, but made even Master feel afraid..."
Shang Lingxue held her cheek, looking very bored: "How come we are talking about you? Where are your senior brother and me?"
The ghost king's expression became more and more gloomy: "In the thirteenth year of the Qin Dynasty, Huanjie attacked Zhao State in Pingyang, killed Zhao general Hu Zhe, and beheaded a hundred thousand people. Zhao was at the end of his life. I have devoted all my energy to the country, but I have no choice but to come out of the collateral lineage.
, the real power is limited, and I am unable to save the day. In desperation, I thought that I could ask my senior brother to help me. With his talents, I will definitely be able to turn things around. So I traveled to Yan State day and night and found my senior brother. He is still hiding in the market with you.
It's just a little different...
That was the second time I saw you, and you turned into a very beautiful woman, just like you are now. I can even say that there is no flaw in your appearance. It is impossible to imagine that you were the same ugly woman two years ago.
A dumb patient.
And...I actually feel that you have spiritual consciousness.
Soon I understood everything. You are not a human at all, but the reincarnation of a "charm". The demon is originally the incarnation of the mountain god and water monster. You should be considered an alien among them, and you actually choose to give up all your original cultivation.
In order to place himself in the womb of a woman, he was reincarnated into a human being.
The fire many years later was undoubtedly the retribution of your actions, which is why you were the only one who was able to escape from the fire, but in the end you could only suffer from hunger, cold and illness in the human world."
Shang Lingxue's face became unsightly. Of course, this was reasonable. She could be complacent about being called a goblin. That was not a human being, but a monster...
The Ghost King didn't care about this, he just continued: "But obviously, your nature as a charm will not change. Maybe you thought you were already a human before, but when senior brother and you faced each other day and night, you didn't
Yu instinctively began to absorb the power of his soul.
It was during those days that you got something that countless people dream of but cannot get - the power of dominance."
"What did you say..." Shang Lingxue's expression was filled with killing intent.
"Humph...are you angry...should you be angry?" The ghost king's sad tone has not changed. It is obvious that he is not afraid at all: "I am the one who should be angry. If you keep listening, you will become more and more angry."
Understand, my hatred for you is not for myself, but because of everything you did to my senior brother..."
Shang Lingxue suppressed her anger: "Okay, tell me, I'd like to hear where else you can go with this story!"
The Ghost King continued: "You have gained the power of control. Under the careful care of senior brother, you have gradually recovered your former appearance, and you can speak. I can accept all this, because I understand that senior brother must have known everything about you from the beginning.
, he is just willing to give everything for you. If senior brother feels happy living like this, I will not interfere with him.
So, I left, and I gave up the idea of asking my senior brother to come out to help me. Just like this, a few more years passed, and in the 19th year of the Qin Dynasty, Wang Jian broke through Handan and captured Zhao Wangqian. Zhao Gongzijia led hundreds of people from the clan
He fled to Dai (ancient place name) and proclaimed himself king. The Kingdom of Zhao was now dead in name only.
My mother died young and my father refused to leave Handan when the city was destroyed and died for his country. After that day, my relationship with the world was over and I met my destiny. Although this world is big, there is no place for me anymore.
Then I thought it was time to go back to Guigu.
Before going back, I decided to see my senior brother again to see how he was doing. After all, we are in troubled times and we have no control over ourselves. Yan country is not a safe place. If possible, I want my senior brother to go back to Guigu Valley with me.
Avoid the war and strife outside."
When he said this, he suddenly stared closely into Shang Lingxue's eyes: "But that day, when I found my senior brother at home, I saw him looking haggard, sitting next to the couch, and you were already suffering from an incurable disease and you were not going to die soon.
"
The Ghost King's voice suddenly became angry. He was not an irritable person, but he couldn't control himself when he said this: "Do you know what I heard? I heard it with my own ears, and you actually asked Senior Brother...
I will die with you!"
Shang Lingxue seemed to be frozen, many fragments flashed before her eyes, in her mind, and in her heart at this moment.
She seemed to see Wang Xu right in front of her eyes, smiling and with a gentle expression. She had never seen him like this before. In the end, the scene turned into a wisp of dust and disappeared with the wind.
"No! Impossible! I won't do that..."
The Ghost King didn't think so: "Humph... that was just the beginning. What happened later made me more and more sure... You are definitely the most selfish devil in the world. You always take without giving anything, no matter what.
Thousands of years later, your nature is still the same."
"I don't want to hear any more." She had improved her spiritual power and was obviously not afraid of a battle with the Ghost King. Her astonishing spiritual pressure made the entire Huangtian City tremble.
"But I still have to continue talking." The ghost king completely ignored the beauty's feelings and remained calm: "You have been punished by heaven and will inevitably die, and you actually want to drag my senior brother to be buried with you. I wanted to kill you at that time, kill you
You are a monster who has confused my senior brother for many years.
Senior brother noticed my murderous intention and found me outside the house. What I didn't expect was that he came out and told me to let me leave and let me go back to inherit the master's mantle, and he..."
The Ghost King clenched his fists. After a while, he breathed a sigh of relief and calmed down a little: "On my way back to Ghost Valley, my senior brother's spiritual consciousness disappeared from this world forever. I can't understand why it was such a surprise.
A prodigy in the world, he has received so much blessing from God, and has such high expectations from his master. He is so kind, kind, and intelligent, but because of you, he gave up his life... or in other words, was ruined by you.
