The tall figure on the throne asked again: "Why? That town is actually just a border town of Qingsong Kingdom. What if it is more or less?"
The imperial mausoleum was originally located south of the Qingsong Kingdom's national border, but the land that the ghost king wanted to reclaim was actually north of the imperial mausoleum.
The town that was lost was actually lost after it was lost. Of course, it was angry, but it was far from the point where it had to take back the town.
Because that town is not important for what it is doing now.
So there is no need to waste your limited energy to fight for this unimportant territory.
Moreover, it is okay not to refine the town into a ghost nest now. As long as the ghost beast is refined, wouldn't it be enough to refine the town into a ghost beast in the future?
Therefore, the Ghost King currently does not want to take action against the lost small town.
The middle-aged Li Gui didn't think so.
It said in a sincere voice: "General! Although that small town is not important, what if the monk who annihilated the Foundation Establishment Realm ghost wants to continue to conquer the surrounding towns? Do we have to continue to stand by and watch the monk?
Destroy the ghost nests behind us one by one!? We have spent a lot of time and effort to perfect those ghost nests. If there are problems behind us, how can we continue to expand the ghost nests north of the imperial mausoleum?"
This middle-aged evil spirit's point of view is very simple, that is, if the things behind are not stabilized, how can we expand the area ahead?
And what if the monk doesn't give up and starts heading to other towns again?
The ghost nest they worked so hard to manage has been destroyed. Isn't that a wasted effort?
And it also wastes a lot of energy.
The Ghost King fell into deep thought as he listened to the middle-aged ghost's words, and his green eyes closed slightly.
The middle-aged ghost under the main hall did not speak, but looked at the tall figure hidden in the darkness so calmly.
This plan has two purposes.
The first purpose is naturally to fulfill the general's long-cherished wish during his lifetime and regain the Qingsong Kingdom from the Warring States Period.
Of course, this was also because the Warring States Period didn't seem to take this remote corner seriously at all, so they gave them a chance.
If the monks from the Warring States Period had come here to encircle and suppress them from the beginning, then the fate of these wandering ghosts would not have been much better.
This second purpose is for the sake of the general himself and the brothers under his command.
They were the general's subordinates during their lifetime, and they died generously with the general. Now after their death, they were summoned by the general's magic and became fierce ghosts. This is actually equivalent to entering the path of cultivation.
It's just that this path of cultivation is very bumpy and difficult.
Which of the two purposes is more important, naturally the latter is more important.
It's very difficult for Li Gui to achieve greatness, very difficult.
Because they themselves are existences that are rejected by the world.
However, if it works properly and does not go the wrong way, it is actually possible to achieve greatness in the body of a fierce ghost.
All of this can only start with the successful establishment of Guixiao.
As long as the generals can successfully reach the Spiritual Void Realm or even the Bigu Realm, then they will still have a chance to return to "normal".
In fact, this is also a way to practice Taoism. There is no way to reach the mountain, and there is a village with dark flowers and dark trees.
These fierce ghosts did not have any cultivation qualifications during their lifetime, otherwise they would not have been destroyed by the Warring States Period so easily, and they had not received any attention from the Warring States Period.
This is a small country after all.
Remote enough.
But after they died, they were now able to practice successfully.
And when the general becomes the master of this ghost, then their subordinates will also be able to benefit from it, and their realm will greatly increase.
This is what all the evil spirits are thinking in their hearts today.
Conquering the territory of the Qingsong Kingdom for the general is actually a lie, only for your own great future is true.
So, they don't allow any mistakes.
When the ghost sense of the fifth-level Foundation Establishment Realm disappeared, this middle-aged ghost, who was equivalent to the imperial mausoleum's military advisor, immediately decided to completely eradicate this worry.
The tall figure on the throne is still meditating.
As long as this ghost king doesn't say anything, the other ghosts can't do anything.
They were summoned by the Ghost King, and it was the Ghost King who forcibly turned them into ghosts. Since he could summon them, he could also destroy them.
All the powerful ghosts and wandering souls actually know this.
Now that they have climbed onto the road of greatness, few people can continue to be pure in their hearts.
They were loyal to the general and fearless of death, but that was the only way they could go.
And after death, you become a fierce ghost, and you can hope to walk on the road that you dreamed of before. Then naturally, they, these fierce ghosts, have a lot more thoughts in their hearts.
Because there are so many to choose from.
The ghost king did not remain silent. He opened his eyes, stared at the middle-aged ghost and asked, "What if you want to deal with that ungrateful monk?"
"Just send the evil ghosts to destroy them!"
"Who will be sent?"
"My subordinate is willing to accept the order and leave!"
The Ghost King reached out and gently touched the skeleton guard on the throne, and asked calmly: "What if it doesn't work?"
"My subordinate is willing to die at the hands of the general again!"
"Okay! Then you can now lead the ten fierce ghosts who are at the enlightenment level to surround the monk!" The ghost king said calmly: "If these are all destroyed, then you should not be able to come back."
The middle-aged Li Gui's heart trembled, and he quickly clasped his fists and said, "I obey!"
…
A small town in the mountains.
When the sun rose completely, the souls of many people began to return to the small town safely under the spiritual power of the old man.
After returning to the small town, my soul completely returned to its place.
However, those people still haven't woken up.
The last three people returned to the town and settled all the people.
Xi Zhong looked at the people who were still unconscious and asked: "Since their souls have returned to their places, why haven't the people woke up yet?"
The old man sat on a stool, leaning on a cane, and explained with a smile: "After death, the soul has to wait for the first seven days to fly away, and for your soul to return to its place, you still need to wait for one or two days, not just seven days.
, there are also some people with strong souls and healthy bodies who can wake up early."
"I understand." Xi Zhong nodded.
I see.
The souls of the common people are actually more or less slightly damaged, so after returning to their positions, even if the common people wake up, they will probably fall into a weak state, which will actually cause trouble again.
The old man looked at Xi Zhong at this time and asked with a smile: "I have never asked my little boy your name. I wonder what I should call you, little boy?"
Xi Zhong smiled and said: "Just call me Xi Zhong. The ridicule does not distinguish between Uncle Zhong and Zhong."
"It's a good name." The old man praised politely.
Xi Zhong blinked, "Old sir, tell me what's so good about this name?"
elder:"……"
Please, I'm just complimenting you politely.
Xi Zhong looked at the old man's speechless expression and laughed.
Xianyu, the girl next to him, kept looking at Xi Zhong thoughtfully.
The old man asked again: "What are you going to do next, little young man?"
Xi Zhong also found a stool and sat down, smiling: "What should I do?"
The old man said: "Now this small town has been restored to its original state, but other nearby towns are also facing the problems we are facing. This small town can be restored to its original state with our help, but if we ignore other towns
Those problems, then after we leave here, this place will still become a ghost nest."
Xi Zhong asked: "So, old sir, what are you going to do next?"
The old man glanced at his apprentice, sighed, and said: "What else can I do now? Sooner or later, my realm will fall to the Qi Refining realm. In addition, the spiritual root is broken, the spiritual energy is pouring out all the time, and the body is seriously injured. Don't say anything when the time comes.
It is difficult to deal with a fierce ghost, even a Yin soldier, so after this incident, I decided to take my disciple away from here, go to other places to live safely, and fulfill my final duty as a master.
I will teach all my skills to my disciples, and then I can remain anonymous and become an ordinary old man."
At this time, Xianyu said aloud: "Master, what are you talking about? How could my disciple abandon you?"
The old man shook his head slightly.
The girl gritted her teeth.
The old man's current situation is naturally not optimistic.
To put it mildly, I will remain anonymous from now on.
To put it harshly, it’s actually just a matter of finding a place to wait for death.
The old man is already old, and he still has the support of realm cultivation. He can go up mountains and rivers, carry rocks and kill ghosts.
But now that his spiritual roots are broken, he suddenly falls, his body is decaying, and his lifespan is naturally directly reduced.
Xi Zhong was not too sad.
It's not that he has no conscience and compassion.
It's just that there's nothing he can do about these things, and the old gentleman really doesn't have much of a relationship with him, it's just a chance encounter.
Xi Zhong just came to help.
As for what will happen to the old man afterwards, Xi Zhong has no control over it.
Xi Zhong said: "Since the old gentleman is so worried about the affairs of the surrounding towns, it is not impossible for the boy to make a trip. Moreover, the boy originally had this plan. After all, he just rescued so many people. For this matter, it is not too big at all.
If you want to fundamentally save the people in the town, you still have to completely rescue the surrounding towns and then temporarily relocate the people."
The old man nodded slightly.
Xi Zhong asked again: "Then what should we do if the town has completely turned into a ghost nest?"
The old man smiled bitterly and said: "What else can we do? Since it has been reduced to a ghost nest, the souls of the people inside have actually turned into evil soldiers or ghosts. They can only kill with bloodthirsty and have no humanity left.
, the only thing that can be done is to eliminate them, and then ask an eminent monk to do some spiritual deeds for them."
Xi Zhong nodded.
This method is not a good one, but it is the only way to do it.
