C168 loss of body

The five of them faced off against three thousand wraiths and were doomed to death. I thought I would surrender and save my strength before I died, but my instinct for survival made me lean to the side to avoid the spear.

The spear-wielding wraith charged forward. They were soldiers, and once the war drum sounded, they could only move forward. If they were to stop, they might even be stomped to death by their comrades behind them.

However, when this soldier rushed in front of me, he suddenly looked at me in extreme terror. Then, he turned around and fled for his life. In an instant, he was chopped into several pieces by the incoming wraiths, turning into ashes. The group of wraiths that had rushed over also turned around and ran.

And so it was that a strange image appeared around me: the wraiths seemed to be killing each other.

After the chaos had lasted for some time, they reached an agreement and retreated like a tide.

The wraiths disappeared into the darkness, and the entrance to the Yama Temple appeared before us. I looked at the others, all of them exhausted and scarred.

Mr. Zhao sat on the ground and panted as he asked, "What happened? How did these evil spirits escape? "

Xia Xin pointed at my shoes and said, "It's the Ghost Prisoner's shoes. They scared them away."

I looked at the shoes at my feet and said to Mr. Zhao: "Luckily I have a shoe, otherwise we would be dead for sure. I already told you, there are three thousand evil spirits here, do not fight recklessly, you just do not listen. "

Mr. Zhao waved his hands and stubbornly said: "What do you know? This place is the Gate of Life, there's danger, that's why I brought everyone here. "

I was too lazy to argue with him, so I ran over to help foster-grandpa up: "Let's go out first."

The few of us hastily walked towards the light. Ten seconds later, we were outside the Yama Temple.

I stood on the steps outside the door and looked at the modest building. I couldn't help but sigh. It's such an unremarkable house, yet it's so dangerous inside. "

Mr. Zhao laughed and suddenly snatched the child's corpse from Xia Xin's hands.

Xia Xin was greatly shocked as she asked, "What are you doing?"

Mr. Zhao said, "Do this."

Then, he casually threw the corpse inside the Yama Temple and tightly shut the door.

We all looked at Mr. Zhao in surprise, "What does this mean?"

The Mr. Zhao said, "If we take this child away, the ghost prisoners will be able to escape. Think about it carefully. How many will die after the Ghost Prison is released? Can we afford that? "

Xia Xin said, "After he came out, the first thing he did was go to the Underworld. Maybe he'll die there?"

Mr. Zhao asked, "What if Hades does not kill him?"

Xia Xin was speechless.

I said to the Mr. Zhao, "Isn't doing this equivalent to lying to a ghost prisoner? Aren't you afraid that he will cause trouble for you? "

Mr. Zhao smiled and said: "What am I afraid of? Anyway, why can't they get out? "

Erhu said worriedly, "But don't you forget that the Ghost Prison wouldn't be able to bring out the body because it was always watched by his wife. Now, will it help if you leave the body at the door? "

Mr. Zhao said, "Don't worry. A mother is often more nervous of a child than a father, so the woman will take the child away first. "

We waited at the entrance of Yama Temple in disbelief for a while. The ghost prisoner didn't charge out with the child's corpse to settle the score with us, did he really allow the Mr. Zhao to speak correctly and let the child's mother pick up the corpse?

In any case, this is good news. We saved them and got rid of them.

The rest of the way was easier, and we turned back the way we had come, down the long passage, and into the tomb of the former general.

I immediately saw the former general refining Grandpa Gu. Grandpa Gu's face was hideous and his forehead was full of sweat, as if he was struggling to hold on.

Compared to Grandpa Gu's hard work, the former general was much more relaxed. After he saw us, he even had the time to stop and calmly greet us. Why did you all come out? No, that's not right. The one with surname Zhao, when did you enter? Hm? There seems to be a lot more people. "

Mr. Zhao said simply: "We have already met Lord Ghost Hell Hound, now he is our friend."

The former general sniffed carefully, as if he were sniffing at us. Then he laughed and said, "Since you have obtained the recognition of the Ghost Prison, then you are my friends. "From now on, if there's anything you need my help with, just say so."

Mr. Zhao shook his head very seriously, "We are friends with the Ghost Prison, we are not your friends. You are the accomplice of the Ghost Prison, so you should call us Master. "

The face of the former general immediately changed.

Mr. Zhao chuckled and said, "It's a joke."

The former general smirked and said, "So that's how it is."

I whispered to the Mr. Zhao, "Why did you offend him when you were fine?"

Mr. Zhao also whispered, "This kid is very bad. You think he really wants to be friends with us? If we accept his words, we are admitting that we are in the same position as him. In the future, the Ghost Prison will turn us into our accomplices, and we can use these words as a gap to open our minds. "

I was stunned. "So weird?"

The Mr. Zhao said, "Isn't that so? When dealing with ghosts, you must be careful. Who knows if they have a trap for every sentence? "

We raised our vigilance and carefully walked past the former general and Grandpa Gu. At this time, Grandpa Gu shouted at us, "Hu Chujiu, don't forget what you promised me!"

I thought: What about agreeing to Grandpa Gu? Wasn't it just to help him get a few things? I do remember this, but he was turned into a villain, so what's the use of me remembering it?

Seeing that I didn't answer, Grandpa Gu called out again, "Hu Chujiu, don't forget what you promised me."

Before I could even speak, he let out a miserable cry, "Hu Chujiu, don't forget what you promised me."

I looked at Mr. Zhao, who nodded at me. Therefore, I said to Grandpa Gu, "Yes, I remember."

Grandpa Gu smiled at me, then the smile froze on his face. After a few seconds, his eyes became blank. Obviously, after I agreed to him, he finally got his wish, and was completely refined into his accomplice.

Just as we were sighing for Grandpa Gu, a group of people suddenly stopped us. Their faces were pale and they begged, "Let us be free. "Let us be free …"

Mr. Zhao asked the former general: "Can I help them get out of this predicament?"

The former general had just succeeded in refining Grandpa Gu and was testing the fan on his body. He was in a very good mood, so he absent-mindedly said, "Sure, but don't let them go."

This was a little difficult. According to the former general's wishes, he would release a batch and keep another. But who should be let go, who should stay? Whatever the choice, those who leave will not be grateful. Those who remain will hate us. It was so easy for us to get out of Yama Temple, we really didn't want to get into trouble.

Er Hu said to Mr. Zhao: "Don't meddle in this, let's go quickly."

As soon as these words left his mouth, the surrounding people began to glare at him, wishing that they could tear Erhu to shreds.

Mr. Zhao cleared his throat and said to the rest: "I have a method, whether or not you guys can leave will all depend on yourselves."

Those people immediately quietened down and waited patiently with good eyes.

Mr. Zhao said clearly: "Those who feel that they have a clear conscience need to stay. If you feel like you've done something wrong in your life, you can leave. "

I hurriedly stopped Mr. Zhao: "Did you say something wrong? Those who do wrong can leave? "

Mr. Zhao said: "In this world, who hasn't done two bad things? Those who were magnanimous in their hearts were not benevolent people, but people who were shameless. They would not take evil into their hearts even if they did so. Those who feel they have done wrong may at least be able to distinguish between good and evil. "

"Haha, you have an insight." There was a laugh next to us, and I turned to see the former general.

When I looked back at those who were alive and dying, I saw that only a small portion of them had left. Most people stayed where they were, swearing, "I've really never done anything bad."

Mr. Zhao smiled at the general, "We are leaving now, there is something I need to ask you. How should we continue on the Road to River Styx? "

The former general said, "I am the accomplice of the Lord Ghost Prisoner. "This tomb is meant to trap Lord Ghost Hell. Even Lord Ghost Hell didn't know about it, so how would I know …"

The Mr. Zhao said, "Former General, we shouldn't speak of secrets in public, I already know where you come from. You were a guard here, weren't you? "

The former general rolled his eyes and said, "When you get on the Road to the River Styx, dig it up and pour it on the ground. Just follow the wet ground. "

We thanked him and hurried out of the place.

Fortunately, the former general didn't lie to us this time. We followed his instructions and went down the Road to River Styx, returning to the human world.

Golden Toad Temple had come here a few times already, but this time, I suddenly felt that this temple wasn't that big of a deal. Maybe it's because I'm a damned prisoner, so the temple is less mysterious to me.

I walked out of the small temple. Just as I stretched my body, Erhu walked up to me and said faintly, "Should I have my physical body?"

I looked at him unwillingly. "Are you in such a hurry?"

Erhu nodded.

Mr. Zhao said, "Forget it, forget it. Eldest Nephew, we have to keep our promises. "

I thought to myself, "A man who keeps his word. These four words coming from your mouth are truly tainted."

But before I could refute him, Mr. Zhao patted my shoulder, and pulled my soul out of my body. Erhu hurriedly went inside.

He took control of my body, sang and danced like a madman, and ran into the village.

I sighed and muttered, "What should I do in the future?" Have I always been a ghost? "

At this time, my foster-grandpa quietly pulled at me, and after giving me a meaningful look, he told me to go to the side and speak.
