Talking to nonsense about Sang Ma [system]

Domestic violence scene?

Why do you think it is "domestic violence"? You listen to the slender and thin female ghost, with her eyebrows raised and her voice screaming——

"I've told you many times, don't get close to the devil's pool, but you don't listen, you're going to die, why bring the doll? What's the situation with the doll, you don't know yet? If he bumps into something, old lady Only you are asking!"

What a roar from the east of the river... No, it should be the roar from the river bottom lion.

The Minotaur did not dare to argue, and cried pitifully.

I don't know why.Fu Zangzhou is very embarrassing.

There is no way, the bull-headed man looks tall, burly, muscular, and has been "domestic violence" so far, he can only whine, it is really eye-catching.

Especially seeing the appearance of the female ghost, her complexion was pale, she seemed to be sick, and she panted slightly when she spoke, she was really weak.

He was holding a mace fiercely!

Teaching the posture of the Minotaur is like Lin Daiyu beating the Bull Demon King with a stick, no one can hold back!

If you can't hold back, you have to hold back. He didn't come here to gossip and watch the fun, but to have a serious business.

As soon as he thought about it, the mist spread, and under the cover of the water flow, it became more and more inconspicuous.

After the mist has dissolved, Lord Ghost King has a wide field of vision, and can see all the movement and movement within a radius of ten miles.

Um? ?

So, where is the "King of Xihe"?

As far as I could see, except for the domestic violence female ghost and the Minotaur, only less than half a mile away from them, I found a group of female ghosts, most of whom were drowned ghosts, and two water monsters mixed in, laughing and chatting, weaving the river water For clothing.

There is quite a feeling of quiet time.

Although the souls and bodies of the female ghosts are solidified and their ghost powers are impressive, they are definitely not so powerful that the peach demon is afraid.

I couldn't help but turn my attention back to the "domestic violence scene".

His eyes fell on the Minotaur.

In the entire body of water, he was a little uncertain about his strength, but this crying coward was the only one.

Could it be that he is the "King of Xihe"?

Seeing the Minotaur being taught a lesson by the delicate female ghost, with a trembling figure, Fu Zangzhou was speechless for a moment.

"Aunt Qing," said in a thin voice, still a little immature, "Don't blame Brother Niu, I ran to the pool out of curiosity, and Brother Niu is looking for me..."

It's a little surprising.

Fu Zangzhou followed the sound and looked at the child who appeared suddenly. He looked like six or seven years old... He had no sense of existence, and it was hidden from his perception?

The female ghost was skeptical: "Baby, what you said is true? Your brother Niu is used to being mischievous, so don't help him talk nice things to fool Aunt Qing."

The baby shook her head, looking very cute, hugged the female ghost's thigh, and rubbed it coquettishly: "Aunt Qing, don't be angry, it's all the baby's fault."

"Aunt Qing" sighed: "The devil's pool is dangerous and frightening, it can eat people's souls, I've told you many times, why are you disobedient!"

The baby has a good attitude and admits the mistake: "The baby doesn't dare anymore," and gently pulled the whimpering Minotaur with small movements, "Brother Niu will never go near the devil's pool again, right, brother Niu?"

The Minotaur choked with sobs and nodded in agreement, and said in a low voice, "Don't dare, Aniang, don't hit me."

The female ghost said angrily: "You know how to coax me, and when you turn your head around, you forget about my old lady's words."

The doll has a sweet mouth, flattering the female ghost who is no longer angry.

Fu Zangzhou was a little confused.

Looking at the faces of the female ghost and the Minotaur, I thought they were a couple... Mother and child?

It is quite normal for the son to be mischievous and the mother to spank his ass.

Although the mace is really cruel, but when you look at the Minotaur, it has rough skin and thick flesh. What kind of wicker or bamboo shreds do you use?

Observing the interaction of a family of three, it is no different from ordinary people.

Well, the problem is coming.

Is the Minotaur the "King of the West River"?

After peeping for a long time, I caught the word "magic pool" several times in the words of "Aunt Qing", and intuitively felt that there was something hidden.

After thinking for a few seconds, Lord Ghost King resolutely decided not to guess the riddle... Peeping or something, there is a beep of the lost land officer.

Being brainwashed every day by Brother Zhong, he gradually became self-reliant as a local official.

As for the magistrate, he made a pompous appearance...it's easy to fool people later.

The water of the West River spontaneously forked a path.

The soul-destroying bell rang, and the sound of the bell was faintly visible, far and near.

"Who?" The female ghost scolded vigilantly.

The Minotaur stomped its feet violently upon hearing the sound, and suddenly the waves rolled and the water waves surged into the sky.

This "making waves" posture is exactly the same as what Tao Yao said.

Fu Zangzhou frowned slightly, and snorted, ghost power lingered all over his body, easily dispelling the waves.

Sensing that the Minotaur didn't do anything cruel, of course he didn't make unnecessary provocations.

The cold voice was a little ethereal: "I am in charge of the book of life and death..."

Well, I really don't have such a big face, I introduced myself as a "local official".

The female ghost was taken aback, and pulled the Minotaur who was about to cast a spell again: "Niu Er, don't be impatient."

Instead, he gave a little salute to Lord Ghost King.

The vigilance has eased a little, but there is still a bit of temptation: "I don't know...what's your lord doing here?"

Fu Zangzhou was not good at detours, so he maintained a cold attitude, and said, "I heard that there is a 'King of the West River' doing mischief in the West River, tormenting the living beings. This...I pass by here, I should find out the situation."

"King Xihe?" the ghost murmured.

The Minotaur said in a rough voice: "I have never heard of King Xihe, who are you, leave my house quickly, or don't blame the old man..."

With a snap, the female ghost slapped the Minotaur viciously.

He turned his head and apologized to Lord Ghost King, "Your dog is so stubborn, I made you laugh."

Fu Zangzhou's thoughts diverged, he looked at the Minotaur, and thought that where is the "dog", it should be called "Niuzi".

but……

The human soul has a son of a bull demon, this combination is a little strange.

Taking advantage of the conversation, he came into close contact with the Minotaur, only to find out that it was a calf.

The calf has turned into a human being, looking like a big and thick guy, but his actual age is only seven or eight years old.

No wonder he was beaten up by the female ghost and cried.

Still a child.

Putting away his messy thoughts, Lord Ghost King said with a serious face, "It concerns the safety of the people along the coast, this... Madam, if you have heard about King Xihe, I hope you will let me know."

The female ghost sighed softly: "Where is there such a king of Xihe? Foolish people think they are right."

Fu Zangzhou was thoughtful, and continued to ask: "I heard that every year in mid-July, the people along the coast have to sacrifice a young girl, otherwise the West River will flood." After a pause, "Ma'am, it's not the king of Xihe who caused the trouble?"

The female ghost said: "The story of King Xihe was fabricated by the people along the coast in the first place, and it has no basis."

Lord Ghost King frowned inwardly upon hearing this.

The female ghost said again: "Life sacrifice, huh." She laughed mockingly, "How can I not understand, I am the first grieving ghost to be sacrificed by life."

Although Fu Zangzhou had already guessed, he was a little surprised to get the confirmation from the female ghost.

Suddenly thought of something: "May I take the liberty to ask, where was Madam from when she was alive?"

After all, the Xihe River flows through many states and counties.

"Do you know a Zhao Shiniang?"

The female ghost's eyes lit up: "Master, do you know Eleven Niang? How is she doing well now? Did she marry Ruan Lang as she wished, and now she has a house full of children?"

Zhao Shiniang is one of the daughters in the deserted house, and she is the ghost who told Fu Zangzhou that she had a sister who was sacrificed.

Fu Zangzhou remained silent, and replied after a while: "She is just like you now."

"Just like me...?" The female ghost couldn't believe it, "How come?"

Fu Zangzhou also didn't know about Zhao Shiniang's affairs: "She died of illness." He was a little cunning, and said, "After her death, she was taken in by a kind peach demon, and now she lives in the suburbs of Taiping City, seventy miles away... Madam is worried about her. Old man, why don't you meet in person?"

The female ghost shook her head: "I can't see you."

Ok?How to say?

The female ghost said: "We, the innocent souls who were sacrificed, are bound within a radius of one mile, and cannot go ashore."

The Xihe River is one of the largest rivers in the Kingdom of Xian. It is located at the bend of the river. The water surface is extremely wide, and the distance between the two banks is about two miles.

Then I heard the female ghost talk about her experience.

It can also be regarded as answering questions about "The King of Xihe".

The female ghost's surname is Zhan, and her baby name is Qingqing. She is an orphan whose parents died early.

About 20 years ago, the Xihe River, which was once calm and seldom flooded, suddenly burst into violent waves. The water potential surged and the river bed was raised, causing several dykes along the river to burst.

Since then, in successive Julys, the amount of rainfall is far less than that along the Xihe River in Yuguo, and it often rains heavily for several days.

The female ghost said angrily: "However, the officials of the court did not do anything, and they often used the name of water control to fill their own pockets. The dikes have been repaired year after year without being strengthened. Every mid-July, the West River is flooded."

Gradually, people along the banks spread a saying that the sudden flooding of the West River was caused by water monsters.

So all kinds of ways to ask people to do it, but it still doesn't get better.

Some places, such as the village where the female ghost lives, have come up with the "wonderful method" of life sacrifice.

The female ghost has no father and no mother, and the fortune teller said that her birth date was a coincidence, so she became the first bride of the "King of Xihe".

Fu Zangzhou felt tired after hearing this, and had to say that in many cases, the human heart is more vicious than demons and ghosts.

"It's also a coincidence." The female ghost smiled bitterly. "In fact, the flood in Xihe River is getting better year by year. The ignorant people believe it because the 'King of Xihe River' is satisfied with the 'bride' he sent to show mercy."

So the tragedy repeats itself year after year.

Every year, a young girl dies innocently in Xihe, even though in the past five or six years, Xihe has almost no floods.

The group of female ghosts I saw before were all "brides" who had been buried in Xihe these years.

Fu Zangzhou was silent for a moment, and asked about his doubts: "Since that's the case, why can't Tao Yao and the others get close here?"

The female ghost said lightly: "I let Niu Er get it out."

Lord Ghost King was a little surprised.

The female ghost said that when she died at the bottom of the river, her soul was almost swallowed by the "magic pool".

Ben died aggrieved, and in a moment of grief and anger, he tried his best to escape from the devil's pool.

"The devil pool?"

The female ghost pointed in one direction: "One mile to the east, there is a two-foot-high waterfall on the dangerous shoal, which is the Devil's Pool." She explained, "The Devil's Pool is a random name I picked up because it's really scary there. .”

Fu Zangzhou thought about it, just now he sensed it in the form of fog, didn't he notice anything strange about the waterfall?

"Although it is difficult and dangerous to escape from the devil's pool," said the female ghost, "but I cannot escape from this place."

As I said just now, the radius of one mile actually refers to the center of the magic pool, and they can only move within one mile.

"Niu'er stumbled and fell near the devil's pond, even if he has a strong ability to transform demons, he still can't leave."

At that time, Niu Duzi had just opened his mind, and he recognized the female ghost as his old lady;

The female ghost couldn't correct her repeatedly, so she simply recognized the bully son.

The female ghost said: "Later, I discovered that no matter whether it is a ghost, a ghost or even a living person passing by in a boat, once they fall into the water near the devil's pool, they will never be able to get out again."

Therefore, when the female ghost saw that the Minotaur had the ability to "make waves", she simply used the waves to scare people away whenever someone approached.

Fu Zangzhou suddenly realized: "So it is."

I thought to myself, this situation is very similar to Peach Blossom Spring?

Brother Zhong was also trapped for 20 years...

Well, the West River suddenly flooded 20 years ago?What a coincidence.

After the female ghost finished speaking, her face showed hesitation. After hesitating for a while, she finally couldn't help reminding: "Your Excellency came here rashly, in case you are trapped and can't leave..."

Fu Zangzhou felt it for a while, and he was very confident: "I know it well."

He was more concerned about another matter: "How much do you know about the situation in the Devil's Pool? Then... what dangerous situation happened?"

The female ghost said softly: "I was terrified. Later, other 'brides' turned into dead souls and were trapped in this place. I told them one by one. Some of them who didn't believe in evil ran to the devil's pool... So far there is no news."

Fu Zangzhou fell into deep thought.

I heard the other party continue to say: "However, the devil's pool is also kind to us."

Many wronged souls, most of them are weak and weak after death, and will dissipate in a short time. The qi faintly emanating from the devil pool nourishes their soul bodies. Gradually, everyone's ghost bodies become more solid and their strength grows day by day.

"At the beginning when I escaped, I really thought that I would die immediately, but I didn't expect that after more than ten years of lingering, I gradually became stronger now."

Is that so?

Fu Zangzhou pondered for a moment, then said: "So I intend to explore the devil's pool."

"My lord can't." The female ghost exclaimed, "I'm not exaggerating, the devil's pool is really too dangerous!"

Lord Ghost King said lightly: "I'm just looking around..." comforting the kind female ghost, "See if there is any way to get you out of this square inch at least. Don't you want to see Zhao Shiniang again, madam? "

Why!He wasn't so nosy.

However, those who want to be a good local official and unify the gods and horses of the underworld should make some practical achievements first.

What's more, he was really curious about the Devil's Pool.

It is similar to Taohuayuan but not the same. I can't help thinking, is there a key fragment?

Although he didn't know what door the key opened, he had an intuition that it was related to his real life experience.

In any case, you have to go.

The female ghost couldn't dissuade her, but she watched Lord Ghost King put herself in danger.

Fu Zangzhou did not rush to the devil's pool immediately, but walked around the bottom of the river in the form of a ghost.

Embarrassed.

The female ghost is right, once a person comes, he can't leave even if he wants to.

Including himself was also trapped.

Obviously not aware of the danger, but every time he walked a distance beyond the magic pool, it was like stepping into a maze. After walking around for a long time, he found that he was circling in place.

The amount of help.What can I do?

Even if you don't feel your life is in danger, it's not a problem to be trapped at the bottom of the river and can't leave.The point is... brother Zhen must worry to death?In case the other party also came, it would be great fun!

and many more.

Fu Zangzhou's mind was very sharp for a while.

He remembered that when he first arrived, when he saw the "domestic violence scene", the mist form could still stretch for ten miles!

Immediately a fog skill.

A few seconds later, a young man with black hair and black clothes suddenly appeared on the bank of the West River.

The young man stroked his chest and let out a long sigh of relief.

Very risky!

I almost thought that I couldn't come back. The tricks of gods and ghosts are unpredictable, so I really can't ignore it a little bit.

So Lord Ghost King hesitated.

It was agreed, to explore the devil's pool, and vowed to save all the female ghosts and minotaurs.

The situation just now was a bit scary, should he keep his promise?

By the way, I almost forgot that he had Linglong Baina dowry, since he could leave Xihe, let the female ghost enter the dowry box later, wouldn't it be safe for him to take the group of people away in a mist?

As for the Devil's Pool...

People value self-knowledge, and everything should be done according to their ability, cough.

The next second he made up his mind, he was "slapped in the face" by his own system.

A sound of ding dong reminds the system that the reward task is coming.

Ask him to explore the secrets of the Devil's Pool.

Fu Zangzhou: "..."

I suspect that the system is trying to trick him with some bad idea.

After hesitating for a moment, it was curiosity and a little unwillingness that prevailed.

I thought I'd take a look.

I didn't even see what the Devil's Pool looked like, so it was too embarrassing to be scared away!

Besides, the system will return to the pit, but it will not issue mortal tasks.

After some psychological training, Lord Ghost King put aside his scruples, and fled back into Xihe with arrogance and arrogance.

Go straight to the mouth of the waterfall.

Keep your spirits up, be vigilant, and maintain a mist form all the time just in case.

Once you find something is wrong, run away first.

No matter the plan can't keep up with the changes.

He has just arrived at the edge of the devil's pool. According to Zhan Qingqing, there is no risk of being "swallowed" if he does not enter the pool...

It was obviously in the form of fog, but suddenly felt a weightlessness.

Turn around.

The body fell heavily to the ground.

Feeling stuffy in the chest, twitching in the throat, mouth full of rusty taste, just vomited blood all over the ground with a "wow".

Fu Zangzhou was stunned.

What is the situation?

Wait, blood, steaming?

"Where is this?" He muttered, "I'm not playing a game, ah...cough," another mouthful of blood, "I was struck by lightning, and I didn't die?"

Fu Zangzhou: "..."

Surprised, why did he lose control of his mouth and say all kinds of things?

Then I found that it was not just my mouth that was out of control, except for maintaining independent thinking, I couldn't control my every move.

In other words, the body is controlled by another "self".

His real self is like a ghost possessing someone else's body.

at a loss.

what is the problem?

The mountains and rivers are beautiful, and it is a little desolate in Mengdong season.

This is...Qinzhou?

Before he could figure out what was going on, he suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes approaching.

Listen to his "himself" whispering: "Where is the sound of the horse?"

I couldn't help coughing for a while, coughing up blood, and said in a slightly panicked tone: "What's wrong with me? I'm not going to die, right?"

The sound of horseshoes is close at hand.

With a "wheeze", a rough voice sounded: "There is a man over there, dressed strangely, why is his hair so short? Monk? He is very beautiful. Do you want to take it back with you? You are always the best ?"

Fu Zangzhou was puzzled, he looked up and saw a group of... bandits?

The "big boss" looked greedily at him, looked him up and down, and showed a ferocious smile: "He is really a beautiful boy, like the rabbit master raised by those noble families."

The gangsters booed: "Would you like to experience what it's like to be an aristocrat?"

The "big master" laughed loudly, jumped off the horse and picked up the weak boy.

Fu Zangzhou was furious and wanted to give this savage guy a serious look.

Dare to be so contemptuous of his Lord Ghost King...

However, the body cannot control itself.

"I" was so weak that I couldn't even stand up.

The head of the family is not particular at all, and he doesn't care about the blood of the young man's mouth. In front of the gangsters, a stinky mouth is about to drop.

Lord Ghost King was startled and anxious.

Fortunately, at this time, "I" was also anxious, spewed out a mouthful of blood, and passed out directly.

The head of the family scolded: "Disappointing. You are actually a tuberculosis ghost."

The person who spoke at the beginning asked: "I'm afraid tuberculosis will be contagious. How about throwing him away?"

The head of the family hesitated for a moment when he heard the words, and looked at the handsome young man's face, a little reluctant: "Take it back to the village first, and it's not too late to throw it away if you can't support it later."

The consciousness of the body is in a coma.

Fu Zangzhou himself is sober, even though he can't do anything, he still has 120 hearts, always vigilant against being taken advantage of by people other than Brother Zhen.

For a while, he didn't even care about why he appeared here.

That night.

The comatose boy woke up.

Xu Shi was so frightened that he hugged the quilt tightly like a frightened bird for a while, looking around nervously.

Fu Zangzhou was inexplicably embarrassed.

At this time, there was a sudden commotion outside, and the nerves tensed immediately.

"I" was also extremely nervous, and suddenly groped for a blade from under the sneaker.

Lord Ghost King was in a daze for a moment, and suddenly remembered the obscene things he had done.

Like the assassin in the novel, he hides the sword and horse in the sole of his shoe.

Inability to vomit.

It's not the time to complain.

The locked door was suddenly opened.

Slowly approaching a tall and burly man.

The man was wearing a ghost mask, and in the projection of the candlelight, he looked like a vicious spirit.

The young Fu Cangzhou was extremely vigilant.

However, Lord Ghost King called out in his heart in surprise——

"Brother Zhen!"
