Quick Wear: Cannon Fodder Survival Manual: Saving the Villain

Zhu Changying is not completely innocent, but some things do have reasons.

He originally wanted to make it public, not for himself, but to seek justice for his mother's death. After all...who in this world today still remembers a female general who sacrificed her life for her country?

But who would believe what he and his followers said? Humans are selfish to some extent.

They firmly believe that those who are not of their race must have different hearts.

Even if Zhu Changying told those things, people would say that he was just making up lies to exonerate himself.

But the two were different after all.

When they appeared in the bamboo forest that day, Zhu Changying felt an aura from the two of them that was different from this world, and stronger than this entire world.

It can be said that if they want to, they definitely have the ability to destroy the world.

Zhu Changying decided to go over and add some fuel to the fire, present that past, and ask the two men to make that past public.

Jiuxuan nodded, and the ghost and the spirit disappeared on the spot.

……

Shen Yingjin and Chu Yufeng walked around the capital of Yuliang State for many days, asking around.

But it is obvious that the civilians here don’t know much about the massacre of the royal family 600 years ago. Most of them even think that it was the Ghost King who was rampant and slaughtered people indiscriminately.

Shen Yingjin shook her head, knowing that it would be impossible to get any results by asking the common people, so the two of them went deep into the palace at night.

At this time, the emperor should be resting in his bedroom and there would be no one in the imperial study. However, any major event that happened in the palace would definitely have left relevant records in the imperial study. They used their spiritual sense to flip through the records and quickly found the relevant books and secret letters.

"These secrets should be known by every emperor, there is no doubt about it." Shen Yingjin frowned, looking unhappy.

Chu Yufeng held his hand and gently scratched his palm with his fingertips.

Shen Yingjin shook her head and sighed.

The contents of the relevant secret letters and books may allow them to piece together some of the truth about the past.

600 years ago, the Ghost King's mother was a female general of the Yuliang State, but she was not loved by the emperor at that time and was always sent to guard the border.

Later, when the Huns invaded, the Ghost King's mother led 10 soldiers to fight to the death against the enemy, but the emperor in the court directly cut off the army's food and grass in order to negotiate peace with the Huns' envoys.

His mother fought hard for half a month, but in the end none of the 10 soldiers survived, and his mother's body was dismembered.

Suddenly, an ethereal voice sounded.

"Of course, this is not the whole truth... I dare to ask, do you two want to understand me?"

When Shen Yingjin saw the ghost and spirit suddenly appear in the imperial study, he clasped his fists and bowed slightly, then replied calmly, "Yes."

"Then I will personally present my past to you two... and Jiuxuan." After Zhu Changying finished speaking to the two of them, he turned his head to look at Jiuxuan.

Under the gaze of the three people, he cast a spell with both hands, attracting the resentment around his body and changing the laws of this space.

Shen Yingjin, Chu Yufeng and Jiuxuan suddenly felt as if they were back in 600 years ago.

They witnessed Zhu Changying's short life with their own eyes.

Zhu Changying was born from the mating of humans and mermaids from an advanced ocean civilization. Later, his father was unwilling to leave the sea and separated from his mother, so he followed his father into the sea.

But because of his impure bloodline, his fish tail was not as big and beautiful as other mermaids'. Instead, it was very small. Everyone laughed at him, excluded him, and called him a bastard. His father was also depressed all day long and sometimes blamed him.

When he was 8 years old, his father died of depression. He could no longer stay in the ocean civilization, so he went to the mainland to find his mother.

Zhu Changying's mother was a female general of the Yuliang State who was as brave as any man. She had made great military achievements and repelled the Huns.

However, she was not favored by the king at that time, and could not return to the capital without being summoned, so she had to guard the border.

After Zhu Changying found his mother, the female general treated him very well. There was no war on the border in those years, and Zhu Changying spent the happiest years of his life.

He learned martial arts and military tactics from his mother to learn how to defend against the enemy.

When Zhu Changying was 15 years old, the Huns suddenly invaded the border with great force.

The female general led 10 troops to resist foreign enemies and had a great chance of winning. However, the court suddenly sent an urgent order to stop supplying food and fodder to the army.

After that, the female general and her troops only managed to hold on for more than half a month. In the end, the battle ended with the victory of the Huns. The female general, Zhu Changying and the 100,000 soldiers all became dead.

They all had grievances and turned into ghosts.

Zhu Changying became an evil ghost, and those soldiers became little ghosts. They all gained rebirth from death.

But the female general did not show up.

The female general died because of the court's decision. Her beloved son and 10 soldiers all died. Logically, she would definitely have a strong resentment and at the very least should be an evil ghost.

But it didn't, which is strange.

Zhu Changying even misunderstood her mother because of this, thinking that she was loyal to the emperor and that even such a cause of death could not make her feel the slightest bit of resentment.

Those 100 thousand little ghosts all worship Zhu Changying as their leader. As an evil ghost, Zhu Changying can enter and leave the dead zone at will. So one night he returned to the palace of Yuliang Kingdom to investigate why the emperor did that that day.

What’s funny is that there is no need to investigate at all. That night the emperor secretly summoned a few people to have a conversation in the imperial study, and Zhu Changying happened to hear it.

Also present were Hun envoys.

The content of their conversation was the murder of the female general and the 10 soldiers.

It turned out that the emperor was unwilling to fight against the Huns, fearing that his life would be in danger if he lost. So in order to negotiate peace with the Huns, he ordered the rations of the 10 soldiers on the border to be cut off.

He knew that doing so would most likely attract vengeful ghosts, and the biggest threat would probably be the female general.

Therefore, he invited a famous Taoist priest from the Tianshi Pavilion to use talismans to disperse the female general's resentment before her evil ghost took shape, so that she would not be able to transform in the deadly place.

In this way, the biggest threat was eliminated and the emperor felt relieved.

When Zhu Changying learned that his mother had died in this way, he immediately became filled with resentment and his strength increased rapidly, but the result of his increased resentment was that he lost his sanity.

The emperor, the Hun envoy and the heavenly master, who were the main culprits who killed his mother and 10 soldiers, were all in the imperial study.

His eyes went red and he lost all his rationality. Not only did he kill everyone in the imperial study that night, but because his strength was too great, he wiped out everyone in the entire palace in an instant, including those innocent eunuchs and palace maids.

By the time he regained his senses, he had already returned to the place of death without knowing it.

His strength was too strong and he was revered by all ghosts. He directly became the Ghost King of the Dead Land. His great hatred had been avenged, so he could only do nothing all day long and had no interest in anything. Sometimes he would go to the bamboo forest to relax.

Everyone said that he was cruel and vicious, and that he wiped out the entire Yuliang Palace overnight for no reason.

To some extent, he was indeed guilty of killing too many innocent people, but some people were not innocent, and he did not massacre everyone in the palace for no reason.

When Zhu Changying saw that they had finished investigating his past, he stepped forward and wanted to ask the two gods to help him make his past public.

He was guilty, and he didn't want to defend himself. He just wanted to clear his mother's name and didn't want his mother to die in such an unclear way.

But before he could utter his request, seeing these, Jiuxuan, who had been with Zhu Changying day and night for such a long time, was deeply moved, which directly affected the Jiuxuan Ding.

The death place was suddenly shrouded in a burst of colorful light.

Jiuxuan, sensing the appearance of the Jiuxuan Cauldron, directly summoned his magical body.

The huge tripod gradually shrank and turned into a small tripod, appearing out of thin air in the imperial study.

The small tripod flew straight into Zhu Changying's hands.

Jiuxuan merged into one with it, and his spirit body became completely stabilized.

"Changying, I said, I will not leave you. You are the destined owner of the Jiuxuan Cauldron." A proportionally sized figure of Jiuxuan stood in the cauldron and looked up at Zhu Changying.

Shen Yingjin turned her head and looked at Chu Yufeng.

After reading this past, he roughly knew what Zhu Changying wanted. Since the Jiuxuan Cauldron, which can purify all things, recognized Zhu Changying as its master, they naturally would not wait for Zhu Changying to make a request.

Shen Yingjin nodded to Zhu Changying, indicating that she would help him, and then closed her eyes to sense the location of the Heavenly Dao.

The best way to make this past known to the public is to follow the example of Shen Xinhuai in the original plane, who used the power of the origin of heaven to change the memories of all humans in the entire world plane.

Shen Yingjin closed his eyes to sense the Heavenly Dao, and the Heavenly Dao naturally sensed him, so it took the initiative to show itself and asked respectfully: "I wonder why you are looking for me, Lord God."

Shen Yingjin told Him what he was thinking, and Tiandao took the order and immediately changed the memories of everyone in the entire world who didn't know about this matter.

He did not make any major changes, but simply added that truth to the memory of each of them.

People are still afraid of the Ghost King, but at least they know that the Ghost King's mother, the female general, died in vain because of the Emperor of Yuliang State.

Zhu Changying destroyed the imperial palace of Yuliang State and did not even spare a bird, which to some extent was consistent with his identity.

Zhu Changying heard the conversation between Shen Yingjin and Tiandao. Just as he was about to thank them, Shen Yingjin spoke softly, saying:

"Master Zhu, there is no need to thank me. My lover and I came here just for a treasure, the tripod in your hand. This tripod has the power to purify all things. Now that the treasure has recognized you as its master, can you... ask you to ask him to do you a favor?"

Zhu Changying lowered his eyes and looked at Jiuxuan. Jiuxuan said gently, "No matter what it is related to purification, I can help. They helped you, and I promised them."

Hearing this, Zhu Changying raised his eyes and nodded to them.

Chu Yufeng handed over the Du'e Sword.

The Nine Profound Cauldron floated above the Du'e Sword, and the scabbard made of black armor came out inch by inch. The resentment attached to the sword blade was also sucked into the Nine Profound Cauldron inch by inch, and purified into wisps of white breath that merged into the air.

When the scabbard fell to the ground with a crisp sound, there was no trace of resentment on the Du'e Sword anymore, and it was as clear and bright as when it was first born.

Shen Yingjin raised his hand, and Du'e returned to its sheath and flew into his hand. Shen Yingjin held the Du'e sword and looked back at Chu Yufeng with great joy: "Yufeng, it worked!"

Chu Yufeng looked at him with a smile on his lips: "I see."

Jiu Xuan said to the two of them, "This sword is very special. As long as the person killed by the sword owner has resentment, the resentment will be attached to the sword. When there is too much resentment, it still needs to be purified..."

Jiuxuan thought about it.

Although he is a spiritual being of heaven and earth, he absolutely does not have the ability to command the laws of nature.

These two gods have the power to order the Heavenly Dao to do things. Since they helped Changying, he should at least resolve the matter thoroughly and not leave any future troubles.

So he closed his eyes and separated a strand of the Little Tripod incarnation, condensed it into a solid body, then quietly crawled to Zhu Changying's shoulder, found a strand of fallen long hair, merged it with the solid body of the Little Tripod incarnation, threw it to Shen Yingjin, and said:

"If the resentment on the sword increases again, you can use this to communicate with me directly. After I receive the message, I will be by your side in an instant to help you purify it."

After Shen Yingjin accepted the small object, she thought for a while, took out a Linglong Pearl from her spiritual space, and said to Jiuxuan: "Thank you for your help. This is a Linglong Pearl, which can help you condense a physical entity."

Jiu Xuan was quite happy to have a physical body that could be seen by mortals, so he did not refuse and took the Linglong Pearl: "Then thank you, God."

The spiritual power within the Linglong Pearl was very pure, and Jiuxuan felt a pure and warm breath enveloping his body.

This little thing can actually nourish the spirits of the spiritual creatures in heaven and earth. It must be a powerful treasure.

Shen Yingjin and Chu Yufeng bid farewell to them and returned to the upper realm, but they didn't know that something happened in this plane after they left.
