Liao Zhai Great Kind People

Chapter 40 Yin Yang Realm

In a dead end alley in the capital, with a sneer on his face, Zhang Xiu weighed the golden cudgel in his hand.

The eldest princess squatted in the corner, curled up on the ground and shivered, with tears in her eyes. In order to maintain her dignity as a princess, she stubbornly refused to cry.

Zhang Xiu showed a gloomy smile and asked, "Will you still dare to trouble me in the future?"

The eldest princess shook her head quickly.

Zhang Xiu hummed in satisfaction, and then asked, "Do you still dare to beat people with a whip?"

The eldest princess shook her head again like a rattle.

Zhang Xiu continued to ask: "Then will you pay me the protection fee every month on time?"

Just as the eldest princess was about to agree, she suddenly realized something was wrong, put away the tears in her eyes, and stared fiercely at Zhang Xiu.

Zhang Xiu didn't care either, coughed dryly, and said: "Just now the atmosphere is up, and I couldn't help saying it smoothly for a while. Don't mind, Your Highness, you can leave now."

The eldest princess glanced at the iron rod in Zhang Xiu's hand, and said vigilantly, "You go first, I'm afraid you will sneak up on me from behind..."

Zhang Xiu suddenly took a deep breath: "Can you read minds?!"

The eldest princess choked up her voice inexplicably in grief and anger: "@#￥%￥#@..."

You really want to sneak attack! !
Zhang Xiu shrugged helplessly, turned around and walked out of the alley, looked around, and found that the other people had lost track of him, and the surrounding scenery was also very strange, which made him frown for a while.

The Eldest Princess obviously also noticed this situation. Looking around, there was not even a single person, and she suddenly lost face: "It's all your fault, now I can't even find a person to ask for directions."

"Ok?"

Zhang Xiu's eyes slanted, and the eldest princess immediately closed her mouth obediently, and looked at him with a look of pleading for help.

Zhang Xiu sighed, glanced at the "Gaofu" plaque of the family next to him, stepped forward and knocked on the door.

There was a knock on the door for a while, and the door opened with a creak, and an old man dressed as a housekeeper came out, glanced at Zhang Xiu and the eldest princess, and said with a smile: "You two distinguished guests, are you here to see my master?"

Zhang Xiu saluted and said: "This old man, my sister, the concubine, and the princess next to me is Her Royal Highness, the two of us... lost our way after playing, and want to ask how to get to the Luzhou Guild Hall, if there is a car It would be even better if you send them off in a carriage."

The butler hurriedly saluted, bowed and said, "I don't know that Uncle Guo and His Royal Highness the Princess are here, but the little old man is negligent in etiquette, please forgive me a lot!"

"Two distinguished guests, please come in quickly, and I will invite the master to come out to greet you!"

As he said that, the butler let Zhang Xiu and the two into the hall, into the inner courtyard, and invited a thin middle-aged man out.

The middle-aged man took a look at Zhang Xiu and the Eldest Princess, and then walked up to the Eldest Princess, bowed and said: "Gao Xuan, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, pay homage to Your Highness the Eldest Princess!"

The eldest princess glanced at Zhang Xiu proudly, and then said in a calm voice, "Get flat."

Gao Xuan stood up, and then cupped his hands at Zhang Xiu with a smile on his face: "I have seen Uncle Guo. I don't know that the two distinguished guests are here. Gao is disappointed and welcomes me. I hope you will forgive me."

"It's noon now, why don't you two stay in Gao's mansion for a quick meal later, how about I send someone to escort you back?"

The eldest princess felt that she had been running for a long time, and her stomach was a bit bottomed out. Just as she was about to agree, Zhang Xiu said, "No need, we have to go back quickly, lest people in the palace look around."

Upon hearing this, Gao Xuan couldn't help showing a regretful expression, and told the housekeeper, "Old Gao, prepare the car."

The butler took the order, turned around and walked out.

Gao Xuan and Zhang Xiu exchanged pleasantries for a while, and asked about the recent physical condition of the emperor and the empress dowager.

After chatting for a while, the carriage and horses were ready, Zhang Xiu and the eldest princess got into the carriage, and the coachman drove the carriage slowly away from the alley.

In the carriage, the eldest princess looked at Zhang Xiu with dissatisfaction: "It's fine if you don't stay for dinner, why don't you even let me drink saliva, Gao Xuan is the servant of the official department, are you still afraid that he will kill us?"

Zhang Xiu didn't answer her question, but stared quietly ahead, and asked, "Do you still remember the pseudonym I used yesterday?"

The eldest princess frowned slightly: "My name is Zhao Ji... Eh? I remember you still claiming to be the son of the official minister?"

Halfway through the speech, the eldest princess was stunned, "What's going on? How could Gao Xuan's son be called Zhao Ji? Isn't Zhao Ji his own?"

Zhang Xiu burst into laughter: "You have to ask Zhao Jiji's mother about this. But I can tell you with certainty that there is only one official minister in the court, and his surname is Zhao."

The eldest princess took a deep breath, her face couldn't help showing a look of horror, and said in a voiceless voice: "Could it be that we really met a villain?!"

Zhang Xiu took a deep breath and said, "It may be more terrifying than meeting bad guys. I still remember that a few years ago, there was a servant of the official department who was ransacked and beheaded by your father. It seems that his surname is Gao..."

When the voice fell to the ground, there was a sudden click outside, and the shaft of the car slammed heavily on the ground.

The unsuspecting two fell out of the carriage and fell to the ground immediately.

Zhang Xiu turned over and stood up, pulled the eldest princess to her side, and looked around vigilantly.

The eldest princess was dizzy from the fall, and when she regained her strength, she regained her composure, and suddenly froze on the spot.

I saw the groom who had just driven the carriage, but he had disappeared at this time. The originally gorgeous carriage had become dilapidated, covered with dust and cobwebs, and lying quietly in front of the carriage... a complete horse bone !

"what!"

After being dazed for a moment, the eldest princess let out a scream that could pierce the eardrums, and grabbed Zhang Xiu's arm: "There is a ghost!!"

Zhang Xiu looked around with a serious face, the dark road in front of him was endless, it was clear that it was sunny just now, but now it was filled with gray mist.

Not far away, an inn was dimly lit. There were two human bones hanging in front of the inn door. It didn't look like an inn for living people at all!

"This... what the hell is this place?"

The eldest princess trembled slightly. This time she was not pretending to be pitiful in front of Zhang Xiu, but she was really about to cry out of fright.

Looking at the inn, Zhang Xiu frowned, and said, "I feel like this should be a place similar to the world of Yin and Yang, the gap between the world of Yin and Yang, probably Gao Xuan sent us here."

"The good news is that the resentment of Gao Xuan's family being ransacked by your father should only open the passage to this kind of place, otherwise they could just open the door and send the two of us to the underworld."

The eldest princess looked at Zhang Xiu pitifully, grabbed his arm and said, "Then how do we go back?"

Zhang Xiu shook her head and sighed, "I probably won't be able to go back. With my current ability, I can only send you to another place at most."

Immediately, hope was ignited in the eyes of the princess, and she said excitedly: "Where can you send me, as long as you don't stay in this ghost place."

Zhang Xiu showed a confident smile: "I can send you to the west!"

The eldest princess: "@#￥%￥#@..."

In such a place so close to hell, don't make such hell jokes! !
