Prince is a ghost
Chapter 18
Chu Quan stood by the window, listening to the chaotic footsteps, his brows were furrowed.He clenched his fists tightly, and a deep sense of powerlessness enveloped him.That's right, he just obtained Jiang Anrong's spiritual power for many years, and now he is at least an intermediate spirit master, but so what?What Jiang Anrong said was quite right, no matter how powerful they are, they are still facing resentful spirits. In front of normal people, they are no different from ordinary people.
Now, what he has to face is not a resentful spirit, but a living person with flesh and blood just like him.But why does Chu Quan feel that people are more terrifying than wraiths?
Song Shuangfei was the first living person he had seen since traveling to another world.When he didn't understand anything, it was Song Shuangfei who taught him a lot; in the empty Anling City, Song Shuangfei meant more to Chu Quan than an ordinary friend.He called Song Shuangfei "Big Brother", and he was not pretending to be affectionate.In his opinion, Song Shuangfei is upright and sincere. He really can't imagine that such a middle-aged man has been putting on airs for a taboo plan for more than ten years.
As the sky became brighter and brighter, Chu Quan's heart calmed down.In any case, at least his life is safe now.Apart from Yan Xichao's promise to him, he has more important bargaining chips in his hand.If Yan Xichao wanted to "resurrect", he might not have the Three Routes to Wangchuan, but he absolutely couldn't do without the Soul Attracting Staff.I'm afraid they still don't know that there is no specific entity for the soul-guiding rod, and the only way to obtain it can only be inherited from the previous Anling City lord-this point is very important.Yan Xichao couldn't do anything to him if he didn't find the soul-guiding stick for a day.What's more, if nothing unexpected happens, Zhao Qian has already discovered An Ling
A call broke Chu Quan's meditation. "Master Chu..."
Chu Quan was startled and looked at Li Meiniang in disbelief. "It's going to be full light soon, what are you doing here?" Wraiths can only move at night. Like the legendary ghosts, they are afraid of the sun. Once in contact with the sun, although they will not be wiped out, they will be burned by the sun. Burning, painful.
Li Meiniang didn't answer Chu Quan's question, but said anxiously: "Before daybreak, I heard a lot of movement outside the city, so I didn't feel relieved, so I came here to have a look."
Chu Quan raised his eyebrows, "Don't worry about it? Are you worried about me?"
Li Meiniang gave Chu Quan a blank look, "When is it? You still have the heart to joke! When I just came here, I saw many living people coming to Anling Mansion, and they probably surrounded this place now..." Li Meiniang spoke anxiously, but Chu Quan was very calm. She couldn't help but ask, "Who are those?"
Chu Quan pondered for a while, and said: "Meiniang, you don't care about the affairs between us living people, go back quickly."
"Is there something going to happen in Anling City?" Li Meiniang blurted out.
Chu Quan shook his head, "I don't know either."
Li Meiniang hesitated for a moment, "Then Mr. Chu, are you...in any danger?"
Chu Quan smiled slightly, "At least there is no danger to life."
Li Meiniang bit her lip and said in a low voice: "Young master Chu, you are different from other spirit masters. You seem to have never treated the spirits who killed us wrongly. It is not a coincidence that my child was played by those spirits wantonly. I also approached Song Shuangfei about the two incidents. But his answer to me was, 'You are dead, and your child has died long ago, so what does it matter if something inanimate suffers a little bit'...I will never Forget that what he said was a contemptuous expression. But what he said is right, we are just lifeless spirit bodies, no matter how painful it is, it is impossible to die again."
Chu Quan felt uncomfortable after hearing this.Li Meiniang spoke too well of him, the last time he rescued her child was just incidental.In his opinion, there are ten out of ten resentful spirits that are not good, but Li Meiniang is one or two out of ten.
Seeing that Chu Quan didn't respond, Li Meiniang continued, "So, Mr. Chu, I don't want anything to happen to you."
Chu Quan's expression softened, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."
Li Meiniang wanted to say something, but the door was kicked open suddenly, and the light of the early morning sun shone in. Li Meiniang uttered a sharp cry, and before the visitor could react, she quickly flew out.
Chu Quan was a little worried, but he had no choice but to pray that Li Meiniang could return to his dead body smoothly.Chu Quan collected himself and looked at the people who broke into the room—hehe, he knew all three people standing in the front: Song Shuangfei, Zhuang Yue and his grandson, Zhuang Sui.
Song Shuangfei looked around the room for a week, and asked bluntly, "Where's the city lord?"
Chu Quan looked at the people behind them, and said with a smile: "It seems that Brother Song created a lot of shadow walls, and brought so many living people into Anling City."
"There is no need to talk nonsense." Zhuang Yue said, "Chu Quan, you are a smart person, and we don't need to explain anything. The prince said to save your life, and we will naturally not kill you. As long as you tell us where Jiang Anrong is, everything will be fine." It's all easy to say."
"Are you talking about the city lord? He's in this room, can't you see it?"
Song Shuangfei and Zhuang Yue looked at each other, strode to the bedside, lifted the quilt, and saw Jiang Anrong's lifeless face.Song Shuangfei's face darkened, and when he turned to Chu Quan again, there was a trace of resentment in his eyes.
"What's wrong?" Zhuang Yue asked.
"General Zhuang," Song Shuangfei gritted his teeth, "Jiang Anrong is dead."
"Dead?!" Zhuang Yue was taken aback, "Then his spiritual power for so many years..." Zhuang Yue followed Song Shuangfei's eyes to look at Chu Quan, and understood everything.Zhuang Yue knew that Song Shuangfei was only an intermediate spirit master at present, and the transition from intermediate to advanced level was a watershed for spirit masters.Many spirit masters can't break through this level even after practicing for a lifetime.Song Shuangfei's talent in spirit control is not low, but even he has stayed in the position of intermediate spirit control master for nearly ten years.He waited for so long, until Jiang Anrong was seriously ill, and he was able to get spiritual power from him to help him upgrade. He didn't expect to be taken advantage of by Chu Quan, a young man who hadn't spoken to Jiang Anrong. If he, He can't stand it either.
Seeing Song Shuangfei's murderous look, Zhuang Yue patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "Brother Song, I believe that with your strength, breaking through the intermediate level is just around the corner. The most important thing now is not who Jiang Anrong gave his spiritual power to, but... Attracting the soul Where is the staff?" Zhuang Yue approached Chu Quan, "Young Master Chu, don't come here without any problems."
Chu Quan had a half-smile, "I didn't expect General Zhuang to be so radiant at such a young age. He really is growing old and strong, and I'm so envious."
Zhuang Yue waved his hand, "Young master Chu, I have been fighting and killing all my life, and I am not used to your way of talking around the bush. Let me just say it straight, as long as you hand over the soul-guiding staff, we will definitely treat you well." " Zhuang Yue looked at Chu Quan meaningfully, "The prince also appreciates you very much, if you can serve the prince, wouldn't it be better?"
"Spirit drawing staff..." Chu Quan said with an innocent face, "General Zhuang, I don't know where that spirit thing is."
"You're lying." Song Shuangfei said in a hoarse voice, "When Jiang Anrong died, you were the only one by his side, and he didn't tell you the whereabouts of the soul-guiding staff. Could it be that the soul-guiding staff must never be found?"
Chu Quan said calmly, "Well, I don't know. If the general doesn't believe you, you can search the city. During these days, I have never left Anling City. It's impossible to take it out of town."
Zhuang Yue thought for a while, and immediately ordered people to search for the soul-inducing stick in Anling City.Chu Quan felt it was ridiculous. These people, including Song Shuangfei, didn't know what the soul-inducing stick looked like, so how could they find it?However, this is also in line with Chu Quan's wishes. All he can do now is delay and wait for Zhao Qian's rescue.
Zhuang Yue didn't do anything to Chu Quan, he just put him under house arrest in the room and ordered people to guard him strictly.Chu Quan sat in the room for a whole day, and those people still had no idea about the whereabouts of the soul-guiding rod, but Chu Quan began to feel uneasy.One day has passed, why is there still no movement from Zhao Qian's side? Anling City and Shaoen City are not far away. It stands to reason that Zhao Qian should have got the news long ago.
Just as Chu Quan was thinking, the door was pushed open again.Hearing the sound of footsteps, Chu Quan raised his head and looked at the huge body of the visitor, his heart sank. "Zhao Qian..."
Zhao Qian's eyes were a little dodgy, as if he didn't dare to look Chu Quan squarely. "It's going to be night soon, the prince is about to wake up, I'll take you to the palace."
As soon as these words came out, Chu Quan understood everything.Facing the betrayal of others again, Chu Quan was no longer as shocked as before, but still felt a dull pain in his heart.Chu Quan stared at Zhao Qian firmly, without saying a word.
Chu Quan didn't say anything, but it made Zhao Qian even more uneasy. He murmured, "Chu Quan, they said, as long as you listen to them, they won't do anything to you."
Chu Quan shook his head and asked, "Why?"
"I...I just want Fenghe to be revived." Zhao Qian's eyes lit up, "They promised me that as long as I help them achieve great things, they can bring my Fenghe back."
Chu Quan suddenly laughed, "You are infatuated... It's a pity that you really think they let your Fenghe come back? Fu Fenghe has already entered reincarnation, maybe he was reincarnated a long time ago. Even if he can really be resurrected ’, and it’s not Fu Fenghe’s turn.”
"As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I can't give up." Zhao Qian said firmly, "Chu Quan, come with me, don't make things difficult for me."
Chu Quan knew that it was useless to resist, and he didn't bother to resist, so he followed Zhao Qian to the palace.The palace, which was empty in the past, is now guarded by many people.When Chu Quan walked into the main hall, Yan Xichao was facing away from him, listening to Zhuang Sui's report on the current situation.
"My lord, we almost searched Anling City all over, but we couldn't find the soul-inducing stick. Grandpa is still looking for it..." Zhuang Yue showed a look of embarrassment, "But there is not much hope. It seems that the soul-inducing stick is really Not in town."
Yan Xichao sneered, "The soul-inducing rod is the treasure of Anling City, how could it not be in the city?"
"But, we obviously searched all over the place..."
"No matter how small Anling City is, it is still a city. How can it be possible to not let go of every corner."
"What should I do?"
Yan Xichao turned around slowly, looked at Chu Quan, and said in a cold voice, "Ask him, he must know the whereabouts of the spirit rod."
"But Chu Quan won't tell us." Zhuang Sui said tentatively, "My lord, can you take some extraordinary measures?"
Yan Xichao said calmly, "Interrogate Chu Quan as you used to interrogate other people."
"Oh!" Zhuang Sui nodded, and muttered in a low voice: "That's easy, I thought the prince would be reluctant. Come here," Zhuang Sui increased his voice, "Use torture!"
Now, what he has to face is not a resentful spirit, but a living person with flesh and blood just like him.But why does Chu Quan feel that people are more terrifying than wraiths?
Song Shuangfei was the first living person he had seen since traveling to another world.When he didn't understand anything, it was Song Shuangfei who taught him a lot; in the empty Anling City, Song Shuangfei meant more to Chu Quan than an ordinary friend.He called Song Shuangfei "Big Brother", and he was not pretending to be affectionate.In his opinion, Song Shuangfei is upright and sincere.
