While I was chanting, suddenly, the river rippled, and the fishing rod couldn't help but sink. It seemed that something had bitten the fishhook!
"Took the bait!"
Xudu's eyes widened and his face was full of excitement. He grabbed the fishing rod and pulled hard.
Wow—
As a burst of cold air dispersed, a dark figure was pulled out of the water.
I took a closer look and realized that the black water fish he caught was clearly a water ghost!
This water ghost has been wandering in the Blackwater River for an unknown period of time. His body is covered with green hair, his body has completely rotted, and he is emitting waves of stench.
boom!
When the weak-bellied ghost saw it, he suddenly lost his temper. With a strong force, he threw the water ghost to the shore.
"You damn thing, how dare you eat my bait? You are so brave!"
The Void Belly Ghost General said angrily: "Did you know that the bait was only a dozen Netherworld Geckos that I managed to catch with great effort?"
Although the green-haired water ghost looks hateful, he is just a minor character in front of the Haunted Ghost General.
Facing the angry hollow-belly ghost general, the green-haired water ghost knelt on the ground, trembling all over.
"Master Xudu, I, I really didn't know it was you who put the bait!"
"There hasn't been anything to eat in Heshuihe recently. The little one has been hungry for more than ten days. Suddenly he saw a ghost gecko, so he couldn't hold it back..."
"Please Lord Xudu, please have mercy and let the little one go!"
The weak-belly ghost general said angrily: "You ghost, I think you have eaten all the fish in the black water river, right?"
"Damn it for disturbing my general's interest!"
With that said, the weak-bellied ghost general took out his ghost-headed sword and struck the green-haired water ghost on the head.
"Brother, you have to be merciful and merciful. This green-haired water ghost hasn't done anything evil. It doesn't have to be his life, right?"
A voice came from behind the Void Belly Ghost General.
"It's someone else's turn to intervene in a matter that is decided by me? I want to see who is so ignorant!"
The weak-belly ghost turned around with a curse, and was stunned when he saw the figure standing in front of him.
Immediately, the surprise turned into surprise, and he burst into laughter with his belly split open and his mouth wide open.
"Hahaha, who I thought it was, turns out to be Brother Corpse Demon!"
"Brother, you are finally back!"
The empty-belly ghost laughed for a while, and then looked back at the green-haired water ghost.
"Ghost, for the sake of Brother Corpse Demon, I'm going to spare your life today, so get out!"
The green-haired water ghost was saved and immediately received amnesty. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed to me.
"Thank you Lord Corpse Demon, thank you Lord Xudu!"
After saying that, the green-haired water ghost quickly climbed to the river, jumped into the river, and disappeared.
"Brother Xudu, why are you so angry recently? Is there something going on?"
After shaking hands with Xudu, I sat next to him and asked with a smile.
"Hey, don't mention it."
Xudu threw the fishing rod on the ground, showing a bitter expression.
"After you left, I have been following your previous plan and continued to contact other ghost towns to see if I could win over a few more ghost kings."
"However, after the spies we sent sneaked into several major ghost towns, none of them came back."
"I guess they have all been captured and killed by those ghost kings."
"Now, except for our Song Emperor City and Yin Yang City, the remaining ghost cities in the Thirty-Two Ghost Cities have all surrendered to the Ten Palaces of Yama."
"I think it's no longer possible to win over these ghost kings to our side."
In fact, this result was already within my expectation, so I just shook my head and didn't care.
"It doesn't matter. If those ghost kings want to be used as cannon fodder for the God of Death, let them do it."
"Anyway, they will lose in the end!"
The Void Belly Ghost General's eyes lit up: "Brother Corpse Demon, don't you have a way to deal with the God of Death?"
"By the way, where have you been these days?"
"Yangshi."
I didn't hide it, I said it directly.
"I went to negotiate with Yang Shi, and they have agreed to join forces with us to jointly deal with the attacks of the God of Death and the major ghost kings."
When the weak-belly ghost general heard this, he immediately stood up and said, "Is what you said true?"
I said calmly: "When have I ever deceived you? Of course it's true."
"That's great!"
The Xudu Ghost General said excitedly: "There are so many masters in the Yang world. With them joining forces, even if all the ghost kings join forces to attack, we can count on something to rely on."
Song Emperor City and Yin Yang City are close to the City of the Past, and they are also the two ghost cities closest to the Yang World.
If there is a conflict with other ghost towns, it can be used as an outpost for humans, which is a good result.
"During my absence, is there any other news?"
The weak-belly ghost thought for a few seconds and said immediately: "Yes."
"The Earth Dragon Clan came here once and said they wanted to form an alliance with us."
Akali, the leader of the Earth Dragon Clan, has helped me many times and even gave me a soul bead. I have long thought about joining forces with him.
Now that the other party comes to my door, I naturally have no reason to refuse.
Then, the Xudu Ghost General talked about the recent training and expansion of ghost soldiers, etc., which gave me a clearer understanding of the latest situation in Emperor Song City.
"Brother Xudu, I feel relieved that Song Emperor City is under your management. Next, I have to rely on you to lead everyone and work hard to manage it."
I patted the weak-bellied ghost general's shoulder and said in a deep voice.
"Brother Corpse Demon, what do you mean?"
The weak-belly ghost general was suddenly stunned: "Do you still want to leave Song Emperor City?"
"yes,"
I said calmly: "I came back this time mainly to find the Green Faced Ghost King."
"He has something in his hands that I must get to as soon as possible."
The weak-belly ghost general didn't ask any further questions and said directly: "Okay, I will send troops immediately to attack the city of Fusi!"
"No."
I waved my hand and said, "Now the Emperor of Song Dynasty is alone in the city. If we send troops for an expedition, other ghost kings may take the opportunity to sneak attack."
"Besides, I still have room for peace with the green-faced ghost king. If I send out a large army, I will definitely miss this opportunity."
The weak-belly ghost general said: "Then what are you going to do?"
I said directly: "I plan to go to the City of Fusi alone to meet the Green Faced Ghost King."
"What?"
The weak-belly ghost general was stunned immediately: "Brother Corpse Demon, this is too dangerous, you must not do it!"
"The green-faced ghost king is full of tricks. If you enter his territory alone, if he cheats, you will be in trouble!"
"Do not worry,"
I said: "Since I dare to enter the City of Fusi, I must be prepared, and safety has been guaranteed. You only need to manage Song Emperor City well."
"Other aspects, just let me handle it myself."
