Yu Xian looked at Wu Yan coldly, feeling very angry in his heart.
Bashan Ghost King had a good relationship with Yu Xian. He coughed lightly and calmed down the atmosphere, "My dear nephew, this matter is very different from what you thought. I will definitely give you an explanation when it comes to this matter."
"Explain?" Yu Xian sneered, "No need, I just need to pay back what your Wu family owes me, and from now on we will be clean and forget each other in the world."
Bashan Ghost King said "uh" and looked up at Wu Yan.
Wu Yan stared at Yu Xian with a calm expression, and after a while he said, "Okay."
Then, he ordered Bashan Ghost King, "Bring him up."
Bashan Ghost King had no choice but to signal Yu Xian to follow him and stroll into the tower.
This city tower was built on top of a tall city wall. In addition to providing a place for rest and shelter for the soldiers guarding the city, it also served as a lookout and command.
Yu Xian followed Bashan Ghost King and walked slowly along the wooden stairs to the second floor of the city tower.
Bashan Ghost King deliberately took a step slowly and said with a low voice, "My dear nephew, my sister is quite suspicious of Liu Zhou Mu's two sons. So, I just made a show in front of Liu Yan and asked someone to arrest you. It's really
I didn’t expect that you would dare to come back again.”
Seeing that Yu Xian ignored him, Bashan Ghost King turned to hesitantly and said, "As for the corpse-killing substitute method, well, I wonder if you have seen Shen Mi again since then. Well, it doesn't matter if you haven't, he should be here in Mianzhu as well.
In the city.”
"What do you mean? What's wrong with Shen Mi?" Yu Xian heard that Bashan Ghost King mentioned the corpse-killing substitute method and did not dare to turn a deaf ear.
Bashan Ghost King lowered his voice and said, "There are some things that my sister can't tell you in detail. I have to say hello to you in advance."
Yu Xian stopped and looked at the Bashan Ghost King intently.
Bashan Ghost King's fat face showed a rare seriousness.
"This 'Corpse-Slaying Substitute Technique' is evil and mysterious. You can cut off all kinds of entanglements with one thought. This method sounds good. However, things are not as simple as you think. The three of us, brother and sister, were killed because of this evil technique.
Those who cheat are neither human nor ghosts."
As if he was afraid that Yu Xian would misunderstand, Bashan Ghost King added, "Of course, I'm not advising you to let go, but unless you reach the point of death, don't use this evil technique easily."
Hearing the vicissitudes of life in Bashan Ghost King's words, Yu Xian thought with lightning in his heart and immediately asked, "Are you saying that the 'corpse-killing substitute method' has irreparable flaws?"
Then, Yu Xian thought of Shen Mi, whom Bashan Ghost King had deliberately mentioned, and asked again.
"What's wrong with Shen Mi?"
Bashan Ghost King smiled bitterly and shook his head, "It's not that easy to cut off the past. Even though I tried my best when I beheaded the corpse, I couldn't cut it clean. There were too many things that Shen Mi left on the old corpse."
Yu Xian frowned, "For example?"
Bashan Ghost King sighed slightly, "The small parts of the five internal organs, the three emotions of happiness, anger, and sadness, the memory of twenty to twenty-seven years old, the secretion of saliva and tears..."
Bashan Ghost King paused for a moment when he said this, glanced at Yu Xian's waist, and gave him a look, "It's not there anymore."
Yu Xian's eyes widened after hearing this.
Let me go! Is this the rhythm that if you want to practice magical skills, you must first commit suicide?
I have worked so hard to seek this method, but what do you want?
As if he had done what he wanted, Bashan Ghost King signaled with his eyes that Yu Xian should go upstairs.
Yu Xian's mind was confused and he walked along the stairs in a daze to the second floor of the tower.
Yu Xian glanced around and saw that there was only one person on this floor, Wu Yan, sitting in the middle hall.
Seeing Yu Xian coming up, Wu Yan made a horizontal stroke with her finger, and the mat she was sitting on was flatly cracked and divided into two parts.
Then the slender fingers retracted into the sleeves, and the long sleeves were flicked.
The cut half of the mat was floated to the opposite side very cleverly.
When Yu Xian saw Wu Yan's behavior, he understood in his heart.
Cutting off one's seat means severing friendship.
Since Wu Yan acted like this, the previous cooperation would probably be over.
Yu Xian went over and sat silently opposite Wu Yan, looking at the woman levelly.
Wu Yan looked at Yu Xian without moving his eyes, and said calmly, "I promised you the corpse-killing substitute method, so naturally I won't break the promise. Please take note of it carefully."
After saying that, Wu Yan took out a small incense burner from his sleeve and lit another stick of incense.
After the smoke filled the air, Wu Yan slowly opened his mouth and taught Yu Xian a formula.
Yu Xian glanced at the incense and remembered that he seemed to have done something similar when he met Zhang Lu and Chong Xuanzi.
Could it be that this thing can temporarily block the prying eyes of those hidden powers?
Yu Xian thought intently and memorized the formula firmly.
After Yu Xian finished retelling it, Wu Yan stretched out her slender jade fingers to cut off the incense string.
Yu Xian's heart was full of confusion. The ghost king of Bashan had just raised countless questions. How could he just let it go?
He quickly stretched out his hand to hold Xianxiang Ichigo away, their fingers just touched.
Wu Yan raised her head and asked, "What?"
Yu Xian had something to ask for, so he immediately lowered his stance and said, "There are still some things I don't understand about this corpse-killing substitute method."
Wu Yan smiled softly, "That's okay. You have done a lot for me before, so to just let it go is really too heartless."
Wu Yan looked at the remaining part of the incense stick, "Then how about renewing our friendship with half a stick of incense?"
After Yu Xian heard this, he couldn't express what he felt in his heart.
Bashan Ghost King had already explained the previous ambush, and Yu Xian believed that this was not a lie.
No one could have imagined that he would be so bold as to kill Liu Yan's two sons and then dare to come back again.
The anger at being betrayed temporarily subsided, and Yu Xian thought of Wu Yan's kindness again.
In the past, when he worked for Wu Yan, he just followed the trend, but he gained a lot from her. Speaking of it, there was always some affection.
Yu Xian wanted to ask directly about the corpse-killing substitute method, but he felt that it was too utilitarian and direct, which was always bad.
Why don't you take care first?
Yu Xian considered it carefully and said, "I heard from Bashan Ghost King that you have also been harmed by the Corpse Beheading Substitution Method, but I have never heard you mention it before."
Wu Yan naturally heard the conversation between Bashan Ghost King and Yu Xian, and couldn't help but laugh and said, "You don't think that something weird was cut off from me, do you?"
Yu Xian's heart moved, and he asked tentatively, "Gui Ji must be very powerful, so that's all right?"
Wu Yan heard this and said, "Even the person who created this method can't escape unscathed, let alone me?"
Yu Xian knew that this evil magic was stolen from the north of Chishui by the Shouwu clan, so he immediately asked tentatively, "Emperor's daughter?"
Then he asked casually, "The emperor's daughter Ba also used the corpse-killing substitute method?"
After asking, Yu Xianqing couldn't help but trembled, and suddenly thought of a question that he had never considered before!
Yes!
The corpse-killing substitute method was brought out from the north of Chishui, so can the emperor's daughter Ba know it?
definitely will!
Even if this method was not created by the emperor's daughter Ba, it must have been properly learned!
The emperor's daughter Ba was trapped in the north of Chishui, why should she not use it?!
Yu Xian's throat was dry and sweat was pouring from his back. He looked at Wu Yan in disbelief.
"So, the emperor's daughter is out of trouble?!"
Wu Yan was silent for a while and then said, "She was walking in the world."
