Ju Mu's position alone is not enough to completely defeat Mukui.
Merely marrying off Noye is not enough to make the Mu Kui completely swayed.
But the two together are enough for all Mukui.
This is not as simple as marrying a beautiful woman. You can also get the largest, richest and most populous Zexi. Therefore, only by marrying Noye can you completely inherit the entire inheritance of your predecessor Ju Mu.
In addition, his original Zexi is even stronger than his predecessor. Who can endure this?
"Is Naiye true to his word?" all Mu Kui asked one after another.
"I can swear an oath to the ghost masters of all generations in front of my late husband's spiritual throne!" Shexiang nodded, looking at the crowd with a hint of provocation: "Do you dare?"
"Why don't you dare!" The Mukui people were completely red-eyed and completely lost their cool.
Therefore, the two Nai Ye and the twenty-three Mukui of Shuidong and Shuixi, in front of the two Ju Mulings, swore to the ghost masters of all generations that everyone present would unite as one to defeat Puding Fort and take Shi'er's head.
They came back to pay homage to the two Ju Mu. They agreed that whoever made the greatest contribution would be the next Ju Mu of Shuidong and Shuixi! The two Noye will also pass on the inheritance!
Shuidong and Shuixi were originally one country, known as the Luodian Ghost Country, and the name Luoluo people came from this. Therefore, they worshiped ghosts and believed in ghosts, and swore an oath to the ghost masters of the past generations, which was the highest standard oath. Once it is violated
, the soul will be detained by the ghost king and suffer the most terrible torture forever.
At least Luoluo people firmly believe in this...
~~
After making the oath, the restless hearts of the crowd gradually calmed down, and finally someone realized a problem.
"We only say that the first meritorious service is the first meritorious service. How do we count the first meritorious service?" asked a man in his fifties, Mukui.
"Everyone will know it after the battle." Shexiang said lightly: "Just like a crane standing among a flock of chickens, you can see it at a glance."
"But what if everyone's achievements are similar?" A lean Mukui said: "For example, if I attack the city from the east, Amang attacks from the west at the same time, and finally the city is broken, who do you think it is?
Great credit?"
"Yes." Everyone couldn't help but nod. Although such a situation is unlikely to happen, what if it does happen? You have to make an agreement in advance.
"If such an extreme situation occurs, let it be left to His Highness the King of Chu to make a decision." Shexiang said, "He is an outsider and has nothing to do with any of us. He also represents the imperial court and his status is noble enough, so it is most appropriate for him to arbitrate.
.”
"Okay..." Everyone couldn't think of a more suitable candidate, so they nodded in agreement.
"Oh, by the way," Liu Shouzhu suddenly said at this time: "When I swore just now, I was talking about everyone present. Whoever made the greatest contribution should be Ju Mu, right?"
"That's right." Zhong Mukui didn't realize the seriousness of the problem.
"Then what if it's me and Sister Shexiang who made the first contribution?" Liu Shuzhu asked coquettishly.
"Hahaha!" Zhong Mukui looked at her petite appearance and couldn't help laughing: "Then I'll let you be Ju Mu."
"But you guys can't marry Noe if you become Ju Muke." Amang Mukui said with a strange smile: "You can't marry yourself, right?"
"I will marry my sister, and my sister will marry me, do you care?!" Liu Shouzhu sneered.
"Sister, stop talking nonsense." Shexiang squeezed Liu Shuzhu's hand and said to everyone: "But Liu Naiye was right at first. Since we sisters have sworn with you, as long as we make the first contribution, of course we are qualified to be Ju.
Mu. Do you agree with this?"
All the Mukui looked at each other, knowing that this time they were not joking. But they still didn't believe that two weak women could take the credit for their half-life fighting.
Besides, they did not dare to go back on their oaths to the previous ghost masters, so they all nodded and said, "It's a deal."
"Okay, everyone, please go back and mobilize troops to Guizhou. We will set off as soon as possible." Shexiang said in a deep voice.
"Okay!" All the Mu Kui responded one after another, and the birds and beasts scattered in all directions.
~~
Silence finally returned to the mourning hall. Mrs. Shexiang and Liu Shuzhu silently looked at the memorial tablets of their late husbands. They couldn't help but shed tears.
Although the two of them had no choice but to talk about transferring a house to marry in front of the deceased husband's spirit, they still felt very ashamed.
"Sister, King Chu had better not lie to us. That Xipinghou really has a clever plan to help us." Liu Shuzhu gritted her teeth and said, "If I am forced to marry those guys, I would rather break my oath than commit suicide!"
"Don't worry," Mrs. Shexiang reassured Liu Shuzhu: "The King of Chu and the Marquis of Xiping are both upright heroes. They will definitely do what they say."
"What if we can't do it?" Liu Shouzhu asked quietly, "In that case, even if I were a ghost, I wouldn't let him go."
"No, no." Shexiang just shook her head, but it could be heard that she was also very hesitant.
But this is already the best choice. Because even if they don't use their transfer as a bargaining chip, when anyone from the group becomes Ju Mu, the first thing they will do is forced marriage, and they won't be able to escape.
Rather than being forced into marriage then, it is better to use it as a bargaining chip now, and maybe you can win a different future.
As for if she lost the bet, would she be willing to admit defeat, or would she be like Liu Shuzhu, who would rather break her oath than never marry again? She didn't know the answer. And where was her infant son? How could she leave it behind?
Exhaling a long breath, Mrs. Shexiang opened her eyes and said: "We must win, there can be no second possibility!"
She originally planned to go to Zhu Zhen again to report the progress to him, and asked His Highness the King of Chu to make preparations to ensure that if the first prize was robbed, the mother and son could temporarily leave Guizhou and live in the mainland until the children grow up.
Come back when you are older.
Who would have thought that the building was already empty...
"Where did the King of Chu go?" Mrs. Shexiang looked at the empty building and asked Old Bimo who came out.
"His Royal Highness went to Puding Fort with the Marquis of Xiping for reconnaissance." Longzan Anuo sighed: "Let me tell Naiye to mobilize the troops and send out troops as soon as possible. He will wait for you at Puding Fort."
"Did he lead a large army?" Shexiang asked.
"No." Longzan Anuo shook his head and said, "I just brought a hundred people. I said too many people would be too eye-catching."
"How could His Highness, with his wealth of gold, lead so few people deep into Wumeng Mountain?" Shexiang stamped her feet anxiously: "If Shi'er's men find him, they will definitely arrest him at all costs.
.”
"I stopped you, but I can't stop you." Longzan Anuo said with a helpless expression: "Go find Nai Ye, and then you will order no one to enter the mourning hall."
"Just let them go on their own?" Liu Shouzhu also asked anxiously.
"I asked Aaron and the others to be their guides." Longzan Anuo said quickly: "Can I still be so unreliable?"
"How can a few people be enough? Hurry up and take my guards to support His Highness," Shexiang said immediately: "If he has any shortcomings, you don't have to come back."
"Hey, hey." Old Bimo responded and ran out. He said to his heart that it seems that Naoye still blames me.
