Tian Xiaoding transformed into a ghost tribesman and lurked quietly near the Evil Tiger Ghost King's Mansion, trying to find an opportunity to sneak into the Ghost King's Mansion and rescue his wife Ouyang Qing.
Sure enough, hard work pays off.
Xiao Ding finally got his chance.
He saw a ghost soldier walking out of the Ghost King's Mansion and onto the street.
So, he secretly followed the ghost soldier.
However, the streets were full of ghost tribesmen. Even if Xiao Ding planned to assassinate the ghost soldier, he could not do it in public.
So, after he caught up with the ghost soldier, he first called him, and then said to him: "Brother, come here. The Ghost King has something for me to tell you."
The ghost soldier was startled at first and said: "But, I don't know you?" Then he heard Xiao Ding mentioning the Ghost King, and then asked: "I wonder what the Ghost King's orders are?"
Xiao Ding pretended to be mysterious and looked at the other ghost tribesmen on both sides, and then whispered: "Don't ask any more questions, just follow me." After saying that, he turned around and left without even looking at the ghost soldier.
The ghost soldier's curiosity was completely aroused by Xiao Ding's words and actions, and he could not refuse what Xiao Ding said. If the Ghost King really sent someone to tell him what to do and he didn't listen, then he would definitely have to bear the consequences.
Therefore, this ghost soldier would rather believe Xiao Ding's lies than ignore what Xiao Ding said.
So Xiao Ding floated out with his front legs, and the ghost soldier floated with his back legs and followed him.
Although Xiao Ding pretended not to look at the ghost soldier on the surface, in fact, he had been paying attention to every move of the ghost soldier secretly. Seeing the ghost soldiers chasing after him, he drifted towards the remote alley he had been to before without hesitation.
The ghost soldier was also dubious about Xiao Ding's words, but he was worried that he would disobey the ghost king's order. Therefore, he had to bite the bullet and follow Xiao Ding.
After arriving at the uninhabited alley, Xiao Ding looked around seriously, as if he had some secret for fear of being discovered by others.
Seeing Xiao Ding's nervous look, the ghost clan couldn't help but asked curiously again: "Brother, what exactly is the order from the Ghost King?"
Xiao Ding mysteriously approached the ghost soldier and whispered to him: "Actually, the ghost king wants me to kill you..."
"What?" Before the ghost soldier could react, a sword in Xiao Ding's hand had already pierced the ghost soldier's heart...
This sword is no ordinary sword, it is a sword transformed from Xiao Ding's Earth Fire Mace.
Weapons at the level of magical weapons already have the power to kill ghosts, not to mention that the earth fire mace is already at the level of magic weapons.
Moreover, the earth fire mace also has fire attributes. Even if it changes into the shape of a sword, it still has the power of fire attributes. And this fire attribute is exactly the nemesis of the ghosts and the like.
The ghost soldier screamed miserably, then died, his soul was scattered, and disappeared as a gust of cold wind blew by.
Xiao Ding put away the sword in his hand, stood there and sneered.
Put away the ghost soldier's storage bag, break the restrictions on it, let go of his spiritual consciousness and go in to investigate, and found that in addition to some ghost coins, the storage bag also contained some medicinal herbs, elixirs, etc. used by ghost cultivators. And a book of elementary exercises used by ghost cultivators.
Xiao Ding took the ghost soldier's storage bag with him, then held the ghost mask in his hand, and with a thought, he immediately transformed into the ghost soldier's appearance.
Then he swaggered towards the Evil Tiger Ghost King's Mansion.
It didn't take long for Xiao Ding to arrive outside the gate of the Evil Tiger Ghost King's Mansion. The two ghost soldiers guarding the door saw Xiao Ding coming and said to him quickly: "Hey, Xiao Qi, are you back so soon? Have you bought back the things that the Ghost King asked you to buy?"
When Xiao Ding heard this, he already guessed that the ghost soldier must have been sent by the Ghost King to buy something, and he knew it in his mind. So he replied calmly: "Oh, I have already bought it."
As he spoke, Xiao Ding strutted into the Ghost King's Mansion.
On the way in, Xiao Ding also met several servants in the mansion. When they saw Xiao Ding, they all called him Xiao Qi, and Xiao Ding nodded in agreement one by one.
The Ghost King's Mansion is very large, but its layout is very similar to that of a human residence. Houses where humans live generally face north to south. Large houses are nothing more than a few more floors of courtyards and east-west courtyards, and the main structure is still a quadrangle.
Xiao Ding couldn't tell the correct direction in the Nether Realm, so he defaulted to the direction of the Ghost King's Mansion as north and south. In this case, he drew a direction for this Nether Realm in his heart.
He doesn't care how the ghost tribe members identify the direction, as long as he moves in the direction he draws.
Xiao Ding has long been familiar with the layout of the Ghost King's Mansion. When he lived in the Great Song Dynasty, his Protector's Mansion was not inferior to the Ghost King's Mansion in front of him.
Therefore, he could accurately determine that the owner of this mansion, the Evil Tiger Ghost King, must live in the main hall of the third-floor courtyard.
This is because before he entered the Ghost King's Mansion, he had already felt the powerful aura of the Evil Tiger Ghost King. Moreover, the black energy condensed in the sky above the third-floor courtyard of the mansion is also the strongest.
Although Xiao Ding transformed into a ghost pawn named Xiao Qi, his purpose of sneaking into the Ghost King's Mansion was not to restore the Ghost King, but to find out where his wife Ouyang Qing was being held.
Therefore, after Xiao Ding entered the mansion, he always walked in circles, deliberately staying away from the third floor courtyard where the Ghost King lived.
However, sometimes, certain things cannot be avoided if you want to.
Xiao Ding was sneaking into the yard behind. Suddenly, a ghost warrior floated out from the gate of the third floor courtyard. When he saw Xiao Ding, he was stunned for a moment, and then said curiously: "Xiao Qi, where are you planning to go? The Ghost King is looking for you. , why don’t you go see him?”
When Xiao Ding heard this, his heart twitched. I said in my heart, the more you are afraid of something, the more it will happen! However, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and said awkwardly, "Ah, um, I, I'm going to see the Ghost King."
The ghost man did not doubt Xiao Ding, but said with some displeasure: "Then come in with me quickly, the Ghost King is still waiting for you inside."
Xiao Ding had no choice but to follow the ghost warrior angrily into the third-floor courtyard.
As soon as he entered the third floor of the courtyard, Xiao Ding immediately felt a powerful spiritual power coming from the main hall, as if all the secrets in his body were clearly seen by the other party.
Although Xiao Ding was very confident about the ghost mask, he was still a little nervous. After all, the other party was a ghost king, equivalent to a high-level ghost cultivator in the virtual god stage of human monks.
And he also knew that even if his appearance changed into the appearance of a ghost soldier, he was not a ghost after all, and his body was not that light. Using the Expulsion Technique to control a small leaf to float about half a foot above the ground, there was no Real ghosts float so smoothly and naturally.
Although he was a little worried in his heart, at this moment, with an arrow on the string, he had to bite the bullet and rush forward.
However, what made Xiao Ding feel a little relieved was that the ghost king's spiritual consciousness did not seem to find anything wrong with Xiao Ding. After scanning it, he did not question Xiao Ding.
Xiao Ding followed the ghost warrior and floated all the way to the outside of the main hall of the third floor courtyard. Then the ghost warrior shouted to the inside: "Reporting to Lord Ghost King, I brought Xiao Qi."
Xiao Ding was speechless when he heard a loud voice coming from the hall: "You two, come in."
"Yes!" Ghost replied.
The two of them walked into the main hall one after another, and Xiao Ding saw an ugly but majestic ghost king sitting on the throne in the main hall. Surrounding him were four or five ugly and terrifying female ghosts, who were rubbing shoulders, tapping back, and massaging the legs and feet of the Evil Tiger Ghost King who was sitting on the throne.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Ding couldn't help but secretly guess in his heart, do the ghost people regard ugliness as beauty? Otherwise, why wouldn’t any of the ghost tribesmen look ugly and terrifying? And this Evil Tiger Ghost King, given his status, what kind of female ghost would he not be able to find in Netherworld City? Why would such an ugly and terrifying female ghost be used to serve him?
The two came to the steps, bowed and saluted the Evil Tiger Ghost King on the throne, and said, "See you, Lord Ghost King!"
The Evil Tiger Ghost King waved his hand and said, "Xiao Qi, have you bought the things I asked you to buy?"
When Xiao Ding heard this, he was shocked because he had no idea what the Ghost King sent Xiao Qi, who he killed, to buy on the street.
However, at this time, Xiao Ding had no choice but to answer. He could only hesitate and said: "Well, I went to the street to report back to the Ghost King. I, um, didn't buy what you wanted. Please forgive me!"
The Evil Tiger Ghost King stared at Xiao Ding with empty eyes, and then asked: "Xiao Qi, have you been to Yipinxuan at Caishikou?"
Xiao Ding nodded and said, "I've been there, but I haven't."
The Evil Tiger Ghost King nodded slightly, pondered for a moment, and murmured to himself: "Since there is no Yipinxuan, there should be no way to buy it in Netherworld City. Alas... this Ten Thousand Years Blood Ginseng King, It’s really not that easy to buy…”
After hearing this, Xiao Ding realized that it turned out that Xiao Qi, the former Evil Tiger Ghost King, left the house to purchase the Ten Thousand Years Blood Ginseng King. He was originally Xiao Qi's replacement, and he didn't even know if there was a Ten Thousand Years Blood Ginseng King in Yipinxuan in Caishikou.
In any case, his nonsense was really passed by in a messy manner.
Just listen to the evil tiger ghost king continue to give orders: "I just received news that there are monsters invading for no reason at the Wangchen River. Maybe those invading monsters are the same as the one we want to capture. The human monk is related to a fox monster. Xiao Qi, since you didn’t buy the Ten Thousand Years Blood Ginseng King, then go to the altar at the back and help Xiao Liu and the others guard the half-human, half-demon Xuan Bing that they have captured. Humans with good physiques, and the demon princess, they are all very important. After I find the Ten Thousand Years Blood Ginseng King, and capture another human and the fox monster, I will sacrifice them all together for a breakthrough, so Perhaps the success rate of breaking through to the Ghost King Realm can be higher..."
As soon as Xiao Ding heard that he was asked to guard Ouyang Qing and the demon princess, he immediately became secretly happy in his heart.
I was worried about where to find the specific place where Ouyang Qing was imprisoned. This time the Ghost King directly sent me to guard it and told him to go to the altar at the back. Isn't this God helping me?
Although he still couldn't figure out why, despite his mediocre qualifications and lack of spiritual roots, the Ghost King would always include him on the list of people to be captured if he wanted to break through. But with such a good opportunity to rescue Ouyang Qing, Xiao Ding would not let it go no matter what.
Thinking that he would be able to find Qing'er later, a smile immediately appeared on his face...
Some people died, but not completely...
