Seeing the green-faced Yin Soldier being so frightened when hearing the red-haired Ghost King, one can't blame him.
The red-haired ghost king is a ghost king with astonishing morals. In addition, he controls a city in the underworld and has countless underworld soldiers under his command. He is like a high-ranking prince. Naturally, he will be afraid of these green-faced underworld soldiers.
Of course, there is another very important reason. I am afraid that the City God has a grudge against the Ghost King, so the Yin soldiers under his command are also afraid of being angered by the Ghost King.
Li Xiuyuan frowned and said: "Look at you like this. You've scared a ghost king into this. It doesn't matter, I won't embarrass you. You can lead me the way. I will go to the red-haired ghost king myself and ask him to borrow some ghosts."
The soldiers are here to use, and the innocent souls of just one city have made you dozens of Yin soldiers and hundreds of ghost soldiers very busy. If you leave the city, your numbers will not be enough."
"Da, eldest young master is going to the underworld?" The green-faced Yin soldier was also startled.
"Why are you so verbose? How can I go to the underworld to see the red-haired ghost king? Please lead the way quickly and don't waste time. I have to be back before dawn to deal with things. Go early and come back early." Li Xiuyuan said.
It's not like he's never been to the underworld before, and this isn't the first time.
The green-faced Yin soldier could only nod in agreement.
Soon, Li Xiuyuan got off the city wall and ordered another black-faced Yin soldier to pay attention to everything in the city to ensure that the souls of injustice did not cause trouble in the city. Then he asked the green-faced Yin soldier to lead the way through the gate of the City God's Temple and entered the underworld.
.
In the vast and dark underworld, Li Xiuyuan did not waste time, but speeded up and hurried on.
"The young master has arrived. In front of us is the city of the red-haired ghost king." The green-faced Yin soldier said as he looked at a huge city not far away.
Li Xiuyuan nodded, but he was quite familiar with it. The city god had brought him here last time.
Without hesitation, he immediately headed towards this ghost town.
The green-faced Yin soldier was very reluctant to get close to this place. He knew how ferocious the red-haired ghost king was. There were not many ghosts in the underworld who were not afraid of the red-haired ghost king.
"Who, stop..."
At the gate of the city, two Yin soldiers holding long spears stopped Li Xiuyuan.
But before they finished speaking, the two Yin soldiers guarding the city looked as if they had seen a ghost. They were so frightened that they even dropped their spears. Then they turned pale, screamed strangely, and rolled and crawled towards the city.
Run away.
"Hey, why are you running away? I'm here to see your king this time." Li Xiuyuan shouted.
The two Yin soldiers guarding the gate did not look back, but ran faster, as if they were afraid that if they ran a little slower, they would be eaten alive by Li Xiuyuan.
"You're so timid and you're still a Yin soldier." Li Xiuyuan shook his head and had no choice but to enter the city with the green-faced Yin soldier.
At this moment, the two Yin soldiers guarding the city rushed into the ghost king's hall in the city.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not good, the last mortal killer Li Xiuyuan came in again..." The Yin soldiers guarding the city were frightened and shouted.
"What did you two say? Li Xiuyuan came to this ghost town of my king again."
At this time, a loud and slightly angry voice echoed in a large hall.
But he saw a three-foot-tall, giant-looking, red-haired general wearing armor striding out of the hall.
He opened his eyes angrily at this moment, and there seemed to be flames coming out of his eyes, trying to burn the Yin soldiers in front of him to ashes, which made people shudder.
This red-haired general is none other than the famous red-haired ghost king in the underworld.
"Did you two misunderstand that Li Xiuyuan is really here?" the red-haired ghost king said.
"Yes, yes, Your Majesty, the Killer Saint is really here."
The two Yin soldiers were trembling all over and wanted to cry but had no tears left.
They know that the last time Li Xiuyuan came to this ghost city, he did not know how many Yin soldiers were injured and how much of the city was damaged. Even the ghost generals were all injured, and their moral conduct was greatly reduced. Even the king's
The treasure bag was also snatched away by Li Xiuyuan.
After this happened, the red-haired ghost king never felt happy for a day.
"Damn it, what does this human saint think of the underworld? He comes to the underworld all the time, and he even comes to this king. Does he regard this place as an outing?" the red-haired ghost king roared.
"Red-haired Ghost King, don't be so angry. It's better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies. There is no hatred between us for killing my father or taking away my wife. There is no need to hate me like this." At this time, a voice suddenly sounded from not far away.
.
But I saw a young man dressed like a rich man, with an entourage of Yin soldiers, striding towards here.
The red-haired ghost king's expression froze. It was true, that Li Xiuyuan was here again.
"Li Xiuyuan, what are you doing here again? I didn't argue with you about what happened last time. I've already given you face as a saint in the world."
"I know, so I came here specifically to thank you, Ghost King." Li Xiuyuan said, "Why, Ghost King isn't going to invite me in to sit down? This is not the way to treat guests."
When he mentioned hospitality, the red-haired ghost king twitched the corner of his mouth.
But when I saw Li Xiuyuan's innocent-looking face, I couldn't get angry. This human saint was running rampant in the underworld. Not to mention myself, not even the ten gods of hell arrived, but they couldn't stop this human saint.
saint.
"Please." The red-haired ghost king gritted his teeth and waved his hand.
"Ghost King, please." Li Xiuyuan also bowed his hand and said.
The red-haired ghost king was not polite. His huge body entered the hall in a few steps, and then he sat heavily on the main seat.
As soon as he sat down, it seemed that even the main hall was shaking.
Li Xiuyuan smiled faintly, but was not afraid. The green-faced Yin soldier next to him was trembling all over and his face was pale. He didn't know how frightened he was by this red-haired ghost king, and he felt that his body had shrunk.
As soon as he sat down, the red-haired ghost king spoke in a thunderous voice: "Li Xiuyuan, why did you come to this ghost city this time? I have already said that I am not interested in human affairs and will not
I'm going to provoke you, a saint on earth, but in the underworld, I hope you can give me some face and don't mess around."
"King of Ghosts, don't think of me as a heinous person. I am very sincere when I come here." After speaking, Li Xiuyuan took something out of his arms.
"It's not whether the Ghost King recognizes this thing or not."
An ancient book with a black leather cover was placed in front of the desk, with three characters written on it: Book of Life and Death.
The red-haired ghost king immediately shrank his eyes and shouted excitedly: "How come the book of life and death that the city god took away from me is in your hands?"
Li Xiuyuan said: "Ghost King, don't be excited. This matter is a long story. Last time I just asked the Ghost King for my dozen dead guards. I never thought that the City God had plotted against me and caused me to have a conflict with you, Ghost King.
So much so that he succeeded and took away the Book of Life and Death, but the City God also got the fate he deserved, because something happened in the world, and I didn't like the City God and he was killed by me, so the Book of Life and Death naturally fell.
It’s in my hands.”
"Did you kill the City God?" The red-haired ghost king immediately calmed down and looked at Li Xiuyuan, as if he had some doubts that he could kill the Guo Bei City God.
However, the book of life and death once again appeared, and even if the city god did not die, he would probably end up miserable.
"Naturally," Li Xiuyuan said.
The red-haired ghost king said: "Return my book of life and death. No matter what your conditions are, I will agree to it. I can even give you the bag from last time. I need you to return it."
"King of Ghosts, it's useless for you to hold this book of life and death in your hand. You don't have a judge's pen, so you can't outline life and death, and you can't exercise the rights of the King of Hell."
Li Xiuyuan said: "If this were not the case, the Book of Life and Death would not have been shelved by you and abandoned."
The red-haired ghost king said: "You don't need a judge's pen to outline life and death. As long as you have enough merit as a price, you can still change the book of life and death. However, I have been a ghost king for many years and have no merit in the human world, so I can't use the book of life and death."
, but since I have obtained the book of life and death, sooner or later I will go to seize the judge's pen, but I didn't want to kill a human city god and ruin my thousand-year plan."
Li Xiuyuan's eyes moved, and it seemed that Guo Beicheng Huang had concealed something from him, but then he said: "Since the Book of Life and Death can't be used by the Ghost King, why don't you leave it here for the time being, and then return it to the Ghost King when I don't need it any more?"
, it is better for the ghost king to be like this than to hold this treasure and be coveted in the underworld."
"Why do you, a saint in the world, need a book of life and death? This is something that can only be used by ghosts and gods, not a magic weapon in the world." said the red-haired ghost king.
"Of course it has its uses, but I hope you, Ghost King, can believe my sincerity, otherwise I won't tell you the news about the Book of Life and Death." Li Xiuyuan said.
The red-haired ghost king's red eyes flickered, as if he was thinking.
He knew that it was impossible to snatch the Book of Life and Death from the hands of a human saint, but this human saint seemed to give him a lot of face and was actually willing to return the Book of Life and Death in the future.
Although I don’t know what to return, a saint in this world will die one day, so he can’t die without returning it to himself.
However... the red-haired ghost king also understood that if Li Xiuyuan came to be so polite today, he was probably asking for something.
"Li Xiuyuan, as long as you promise that you are willing to return my book of life and death after a hundred years, I can consider whatever request you have." After the red-haired ghost king finished thinking, he immediately spoke in a deep voice.
Li Xiuyuan had to praise this ghost king in his heart.
It is indeed very smart to become a ghost king, and he can see through his intentions at a glance.
Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Ghost King, I will not beat around the bush, and I will say some things directly. This time I came to ask the Ghost King to do me two favors. One favor is that there have been a lot of wronged souls in the world recently, and I want to pick up the Ghost King."
This ghost town needs to take it in."
"It's a small matter to receive the wronged souls. You can just send your subordinates to bring the wronged souls." The red-haired ghost king readily agreed.
Li Xiuyuan added: "The second thing I'm busy with is that I'm short of manpower recently, so I want to ask the Ghost King to borrow some Yin soldiers."
"What? You want to borrow Yin soldiers?" The red-haired ghost king opened his eyes.
"Yes, Ghost King, you have countless Yin soldiers under your command. I would like to ask Ghost King to borrow some." Li Xiuyuan said.
The red-haired ghost king immediately began to ponder: "How much do you want to borrow?"
"Three thousand." Li Xiuyuan stretched out his hand and said.
"More, five hundred at most. Yin soldiers are not ghosts, and they are not that easy to train. If something goes wrong, I might not be able to defend this ghost city."
"Return it after use. How could there be a problem? Ghost King, I am also a saint in the world, so give me some face." Li Xiuyuan said.
