I asked Grandpa Taizu if he had found the Shangyang Sword. He said confidently that he had already found some clues and had planned to go find it himself tonight, but for Xiaoxue, he hurried to the underworld and left the matter of the sword to Lu Fei and the other four. Whether they could find it depended on their luck.
As we were talking, the Seventh Master and the Eighth Master pushed the door open in a panic and said to us, "Something bad has happened. The Chief Executive listened to slander again and sent Xiaoxue to hell without any interrogation. He also ordered that you two be sent to hell. Judge Cui sent us here to report the news and told you... to run away!"
We both stood up in shock. Damn it, the Chief Executive is a pig-head, what's so good about that bitch Mei Ruoqi, you are so confused that you kill innocent people by mistake. We looked at each other, where can we escape to? There is no other place except the Wrongful Death City, but it has been controlled by Tan Qing and his gang, we can't get in. Even if we go in, wouldn't it be a trap for us
"You two, time is running out, run away quickly!" Master Qi urged us anxiously.
Grandpa said "hmm" and took my hand out of the guest room. The Seventh and Eighth Masters followed and said that they would go outside to lead the ghost away and let us run as far as we could. Jiuyou Street was originally an endless ghost den, and we might be able to escape to a dead end where the ghost can't find us.
It's not necessarily boundless, at least the Naihe Bridge is the end. Grandpa Taizu thanked the two brothers, took me and flew out of the inn, heading straight west. I asked him why he didn't go east to Naihe Bridge, ask Meng Po for help, cross the bridge and reincarnate to find another opportunity.
Grandpa Taizu said with a heavy face: "Meng Po was severely punished for saving me before, and now we can't let her get into trouble again. If we have any difficulties, we should solve them by ourselves. If we can't, then it's just that we are unlucky."
It's already this late, and you still believe in fate? If it's really destined, and I don't seem to be destined to die, then I don't need to go anywhere, just wait for the decision of the pig-headed chief executive. He must bring me back to life, and then there will be no more wronged dead ghosts in the world.
"So where are we going to take refuge now?" I looked ahead. The inn was basically at the edge of the prosperous area of Zhongping Street. Beyond the inn to the west was an endless desolate land. At this moment, I heard shouts and screams from behind, which made me feel cold. We were caught up. Were we tied up with soul-locking chains and thrown into the oil pan to be fried first
"There are many unexpected places in the west section of Zhongping Street. Just follow them." Grandpa Taizu said impatiently.
Ha, what unexpected place is there? Isn't there a temple at most? Yes, I suddenly realized that no ghosts are allowed to approach the temple. If we hide in it, won't we be safe? Even if Mei Ruoqi refuses to agree, with Grandpa Taizu here, why should I be afraid of her
Now I understand that no matter how smart I am, I am still not as smart as my great grandfather. I am not as calm and wise as him. This makes me yearn for him when he was alive. I think of how he was when he was wandering around the world, killing demons and ghosts, and eliminating violence and protecting the good. He was so majestic, he was simply the best in the world!
I drifted westward for dozens of miles. It was great to be a ghost. I could run fast. I saw a stone tablet standing by the road with eight big characters engraved on it: "Stop here. Trespassers will be killed!" I thought to myself, the temple should be not far ahead.
But after passing the stone tablet, there was still endless wilderness in front of me, and no building could be seen. I wondered again, where was the temple
At this time, Grandpa Taizu said to me with a serious face: "There are many ghost officials guarding the front. You have to be careful. Remember to hide behind me when you meet them. You don't need to do anything."
I chuckled and said, "Do I really need to do anything to follow you, old man?"
The old man nodded and said, "You must know that I am going to take you to the temple. Do you know why we are going to the temple?"
I touched my nose. Grandpa Taizu's question seemed to have a hidden meaning, so I answered, "He is threatening the Chief Executive to let Xiaoxue and I leave the underworld together."
Grandpa Taizu turned around and looked at me in surprise: "You have become smarter, why don't you want us to catch Mei Ruoqi?"
I felt a little unhappy after hearing this. What do you mean I have become smarter? Your grandson is very smart, okay? I coughed twice and said, "Mei Ruoqi is a ghost. It is useless to catch her. The temple is the most sacred place in the underworld. There may be something here that threatens the chief executive. We can use this to force him to release her."
"This young man is teachable!"
As soon as Grandpa Taizu finished speaking, I heard the sound of iron chains colliding in front of me. Suddenly, a group of ghost officials, at least more than 20 of them, stood in front of me more than ten meters away and blocked the road. Each of these dead guys held a soul-locking chain in his hand, and each of their ghost faces was filled with ferocious murderous intent, which made me shudder.
We both stood still in a hurry. Grandpa stepped forward and sneered, "Hundreds of years ago, it was you, a bunch of cowards, who blocked my way. Hundreds of years later, you are still asking for trouble. You really don't learn your lesson!"
"It's him… "
"It's that old bastard!"
Suddenly, the ghosts burst into exclamations. It seemed that they had fought with Grandpa Taizu hundreds of years ago and suffered a lot. They still remembered him vividly. Now that they met each other on a narrow road, fear surged on the faces of these damn guys.
“Then get out of my way quickly, or I’ll break your dog legs!” Grandpa Taizu, with his hair and beard all standing tall, stood in front like a god, emitting a powerful and majestic aura!
It was the first time I saw him so domineering, and I gave him a thumbs up from the bottom of my heart. I thought to myself, if I could be like him one day, standing here and yelling at the ghost messenger, how awesome would that be!
The ghost officials were afraid, but it was their duty and they had to hold on. Because the underworld was different from the human world, the highest punishment for breaking the law in the human world was death, but in the underworld there were tortures more painful than death, such as the eighteen levels of hell, or the realm of death. So dying in battle was definitely much happier than being punished. The group of dead guys immediately dispersed with a whoosh, and a few of them rushed up with soul-locking chains.
The ones who lead the charge should be the eyes, and the bachelors should all watch the situation from behind. If the situation is not good, they will decide whether to retreat. However, no matter how powerful Grandpa Taizu is, he is just a ghost. I doubt that he has ever made these ghost officials suffer. Those soul-locking chains are not made of paper. Can he withstand it
Grandpa Taizu snorted coldly, spread his arms, and shouted loudly: "Qi Hai Yang Bo!"
Suddenly, a strong black energy emanated from his whole body, rolling forward, sweeping up the six or seven ghost officials who were rushing over and throwing them into the air.
