Although the Thousand Hands Ghost General said that the ghost city is a place where there is no sense of friendship, and only the most ruthless and unintentional ghosts can come to power.
But after all, I haven’t been in Song Emperor City for a long time, and I haven’t been truly regarded as one of my own by Huang Shuai Yin. If he knew that I killed Thousand Hands and the three major ghosts at once, it’s hard to guarantee that he wouldn’t be upset with me. Suspicion.
"Don't worry, brother. I also have a share in killing the fifth ghost. I'll just explain it to you when the time comes."
"The city lord won't do anything to you, don't worry."
The weak-belly ghost general patted my shoulder and said comfortingly.
I could only smile bitterly in return and said nothing more.
"Okay, don't think so much, let's go and have a drink!"
After saying that, the empty-belly ghost took me and walked to another tavern.
The weak-bellied ghost general did not take this matter to heart, and drank until the sky was dark, as if in his eyes, no matter how big something happened, it would not matter as long as he had wine to drink.
Seeing that the weak-belly ghost was extremely drunk, I replaced two of my personal ghost soldiers to help him leave, and I returned to the general's mansion.
All night long, I was thinking about how to deal with the doubts raised by the Hornets and how to proceed with the next plan.
Early the next morning, as soon as I walked out of the room, a ghost soldier was already standing outside the door waiting.
"General Corpse Demon, the Lord of the City invites you!"
I was stunned for a moment, did Yin Shuai of the Hornets know it so quickly?
In the past few days, the handsome hornet Yin has not appeared. I don’t know where he went. Yesterday I just killed the Thousand-Handed Ghost General, and today he invited me to see him.
It's hard to say that there is no relationship between the two.
However, I finally broke into the upper echelons of Song Emperor City and became a ghost general. Naturally, I cannot give up halfway.
Even if I expected that Huang Shuai was suspicious of me, I could only go to meet him.
"knew."
I waved my hand, and the ghost soldier lowered his head and retreated.
I returned to the room, tidied up my appearance, and then called the ghost sedan bearer. I sat in the sedan and came to the black palace again.
"General Corpse Demon, I am the butler of the Lord of the City. The Lord of the City has said that the meeting with you today is private. There is no need to go to the main hall. You can come with this old slave."
An old ghost stood in front of the black palace. When he saw me getting off the sedan, he stepped forward and said to me.
"Good work."
I nodded and followed the housekeeper through the black hall. After walking a few hundred meters, I came to a house.
This house has high walls, deep courtyards, and no windows. There are only two bamboo poles standing in front of the main door, and two white lanterns hanging on the bamboo poles.
Inside the lampshade, two green rays of light flickered, emitting through the white lampshade, forming a strange green glow.
The combination of these two green lights and the black house behind them looked like a monster crawling on the ground.
After all, it was the residence of Yin Shuai, a hornet. No matter how weird it was, it didn't matter. I didn't think much about it, so I followed the old housekeeper and walked into the house.
After passing through a dark corridor, a closed hut appeared in front of them.
It was pitch dark in the hut, without any light.
"This is the City Lord's study. He is waiting for you inside. Come in."
The old housekeeper looked at me and said.
I nodded slightly and was about to knock on the door when I heard a creak and the wooden door opened automatically.
Driven by an unknown force, I walked in casually.
The study room is not big, the layout is simple and elegant, and there is a painting and calligraphy on the wall. However, I am not educated enough, so I don’t know who painted it.
Generally speaking, this place is not much different from the bookstores of wealthy people in Yangshizhong in the last century.
There was no light in the room, only the lanterns outside, which shone a faint green light through the screen windows, preventing the study from falling into complete darkness.
Huang Shuai was sitting at the desk, holding an ancient book in his hand, reading it very carefully in the darkness.
I don’t know how he could clearly see the handwriting on the ancient book.
I stood quietly on the ground, keeping calm, waiting for Yin Shuai to speak.
After watching it for a few more minutes, Huang Yinshuai put down the ancient book and said calmly: "Here you go, sit down."
"Thank you, Lord City Lord!"
I responded, and then sat on a wooden chair across from Huang Yinshuai.
"Lord City Lord, yesterday for some reason, my subordinates killed the Thousand-Handed Ghost General, the fifth, ninth, and tenth ghost general. I know that my sins are serious, but before the Lord City Lord punishes me, I would like to hear the general's story. explain."
Huang Yinshuai just looked at me lightly and said nothing.
I knew that he was waiting for my explanation, so he continued talking on his own.
"Since the public competition that day, the Thousand-Handed Ghost General has been harboring a grudge against his subordinates and plotting revenge."
"Today, he attracted his subordinates to the Ghost Immortal Tower. He first lured the general to take the cold poisonous energy of the Styx, and then sent out more than a dozen ghost soldiers, intending to put his subordinates to death."
"In order to protect themselves, my subordinates had no choice but to launch a counterattack and killed the Thousand-Handed Ghost General and the dozen or so ghost soldiers."
"As for the fifth ghost envoy and others, as the best friends of the Thousand-Handed Ghost General, they have been waiting outside to ambush their subordinates, so the little devil killed them together."
"What I just said is true. I hope the Lord of the City will understand clearly and will be willing to accept any punishment."
After I finished speaking, I stopped talking and waited for Huang Shuai's words.
Huang Shuai remained silent. After a few minutes, he suddenly laughed.
"Haha, isn't it just one ghost general and three ghost envoys? Just kill them. It's nothing."
I was stunned for a moment: "Lord City Lord, you..."
"I have heard your explanation just now. It was Qianju who wanted to harm others but was unable to do so, so he died unjustly."
"There are many ghosts and talents in our city, Emperor Song. If a few ghosts and generals die, we will just support a few more. Anyway, there are many ghosts waiting for them to come to power."
"General Corpse Demon, you don't need to take this matter to heart."
Hearing Huang Shuai's words, I couldn't help but let out a long breath and relaxed.
Although I was calm on the surface just now, I was very nervous in my heart. I was even ready to fight the shady and handsome Wasp to the death.
After all, I had killed so many high-level officials when I first arrived, so it was impossible for him, the handsome huangwang Yin Shuai, not to care.
Unexpectedly, he just revealed the matter lightly.
"General Corpse Demon, actually, this is not why I called you here this time."
While I was deep in thought, the hornet Yin Shuai said to me again.
"Oh? Lord City Lord, you have asked your subordinates to come here. Do you have other matters?"
I asked with some confusion.
"good,"
The handsome hornet Yin nodded and asked: "General Corpse Demon, do you know where I have been these days?"
