Chapter 147 Zhong Kui's Decision
Ou Xiaolu looked back and found that Zhong Kui, who had not seen for a long time, was standing next to the martial ghost. It could be seen that just now, the martial ghost had already notified Zhong Kui about everything here.
I haven't seen each other these days, Zhong Kui has also changed. His skin has become looser and he seems to be able to pull it off with just a little pull, but he doesn't care about all this, but stretches out his hand and spins in the air.
After a while, Ou Xiaolu saw a large amount of paper ash appearing in his hands. Zhong Kui grabbed the paper ash and a golden ingot appeared.
But Zhong Kui shook his head and pinched it gently, and the golden ingot turned into pieces.
"It turns out that I am too far away, and I am influenced by other gods, so these things cannot be sent out at all."
Ou Xiaolu looked at Zhong Kui with some confusion and asked, "What are these?"
"There are some people who leave their hometowns, but they never expected that they were too far away from home, so far that even the last bit of sustenance could not be sent back." Zhong Kui sighed, then looked at Ou Xiaolu, "Give me this place, I can find a way to open up a road to the Yellow Spring Ghost Kingdom and send these sustenances back."
"Is this OK? It's too far from China, it's just half the earth." Ou Xiaolu asked with some concern.
"The path between the underworld and the living is different, and I feel that my strength is improving recently. I don't know if the potion you gave me has improved or for some other reason, so I want to try it. Maybe this is my way to get rid of Zhong Kui's name and become a ghost king."
After hearing what Zhong Kui said, Ou Xiaolu became serious, "Did you decide? You should know that this road is not that simple. Maybe you can find the road to the Yellow Spring Ghost Country very smoothly, or maybe you were stopped halfway."
"I have decided clearly. But I'm a little embarrassed. I promised to help you for two years before, but now it seems that this time is going to be delayed."
"It's okay, Zhong Kui helped me for two years and a ghost king helped me for two years. I still know the difference between it."
Zhong Kui nodded, expressed his gratitude to Ou Xiaolu, and then said embarrassedly, "I may set up a magic circle to attract the souls of my hometown people in Xinxiang to live here. Your house may become a haunted house."
Ou Xiaolu laughed when he heard this, "That's interesting. I have been careful that no one lives in this house, but it's good if there are ghosts to live there."
Seeing that Ou Xiaolu was so generous, Zhong Kui also had a smile on his face that was about to fall, "Then I'll start now, do you want to take a look?"
"Of course." Before Ou Xiaolu could answer, Emilia on the side cried out, "Uncle, can you turn the underworld along the way when you open the underworld? I want to see the Lord Hela, who Xiaoma said."
"This is a bit difficult, but you also have the origin of living and dying, so you can try it yourself."
When Ou Xiaolu heard this, he was a little surprised. It seemed that in Nordic myths, Valkyrie really had the ability to lead the dead into the underworld.
After walking out of this illusory chapel, Ou Xiaolu and the others saw the infinite desolation that could not be seen at a glance.
"How is it? Isn't it different from what I imagined? This is the underworld, there is no other flower, there is only a desolate area and no vitality."
"I can't imagine it." Ou Xiaolu couldn't help but sigh, "But why do I feel that this space is quite stable? Is it your power?"
"No. I haven't started yet, but I'm a little surprised. It's the first time I've seen such a solid fragment of the underworld in Xinxiang for so many years. Maybe the world will change a lot again."
When Ou Xiaolu heard this, he thought of what the novice guide said about the revival of spiritual energy in two years. He hesitated whether to tell Zhong Kui about this.
However, at this time, Zhong Kui had already stood out. He stood in the wilderness, holding his hands high, and countless black paper ash rushed towards him, completely wrapping him up.
"What is he going to do?" Emilia asked in a low voice.
"I don't know either, but depending on the situation, it should be gathering strength and opening up the channel."
At this moment, Zhong Kui said loudly: "I, Liu, I am willing to give up Zhong Kui's identity and become the Ghost King in Xinxiang, so as to protect the spirits of the same clan and the same origin, and escort the dead back home."
After saying all this, Zhong Kui grabbed the skin on his body and started to tear it up regardless.
This action scared Ou Xiaolu and the others. You must know that the skin on Zhong Kui is the foundation of his survival. He has devoured so many ghosts over the years, and it is all suppressed by Zhong Kui's identity. If Zhong Kui's identity is gone, he will face the backlash of those evil ghosts.
Thinking of this, Ou Xiaolu couldn't help but press his hand on the sword. Seeing Ou Xiaolu like this, Emilia also took out her weapon.
At this moment, a thunder sounded from the sky. Ou Xiaolu couldn't help but look up and wanted to ask why there would be thunder in the underworld.
At this moment, Zhong Kui had completely tore off his skin, revealing the yellow bones inside and countless souls attached to Zhong Kui's body.
These evil spirits are not big, but their faces are distorted and don't look like anything good. They attack each other in Zhong Kui's body. However, whenever an evil spirit is swallowed, a new evil spirit will appear immediately. It can be seen that Zhong Kui's body is like a hell. Before the punishment is over, everything is repeated.
Before, Zhong Kui trapped these evil spirits in his body and suppressed Zhong Kui's skin. There was nothing wrong with this. Now without Zhong Kui's skin, the evil spirits did not react at first, and then began to rush out, trying to break through the constraints of Zhong Kui's bones.
At this moment, Zhong Kui shouted loudly: "Go back to me, I am the Ghost King Liu, you all go back to me."
Ou Xiaolu could hear the confidence in Zhong Kui's voice, and at the same time he saw countless black paper dust rushing towards Zhong Kui's bones.
Under the suppression of the paper ashes, the evil spirits turned into ghost fires as if they were ignited, and began to ignite Zhong Kui's body, as if they wanted to burn Zhong Kui to death.
