I become a god in another world

Chapter 259 Bold speculation
Chapter 259

This place is just a begging alley, and it is still some distance away from the real Confucius Temple. But once you step into the begging alley, you will feel a chill for no reason.

This coldness seems to seep from the bones, making people shiver uncontrollably.

As the number of ghosts controlled by Zhao Fusheng increased, his sense of the aura of the ghosts became much deeper than when he first entered this place that day.

She felt a kind of malice unique to evil spirits.

Mixed with hatred for life and murderous intent, it enveloped the entire begging alley.

"Man Zhou, how do you feel?"

Zhao Fusheng turned his head and glanced at the little girl.

The child has a deep connection with the ghost, and she can be said to be a 'ghost' herself. However, due to the special circumstances, the ghosts she controls are just in conflict with each other, allowing her to maintain her human mind.

If there is an extra 'ghost' in Confucius Temple, it cannot be hidden from Kuai Manzhou's induction.

As soon as Zhao Fusheng finished speaking, the little girl tilted her head as if listening to something.

After a while, a look of embarrassment appeared on her face.

She once saw through the bloody light on Po Meng's body. Zhao Fusheng thought that this question should not be difficult for her. Seeing her hesitation, Zhao Fusheng paused and asked:

"what happened?"

"I feel like there are three ghosts."

Kuai Manzhou frowned:

"But there's--there's a ghost that seems to be hiding."

"Hidden?" Zhao Fusheng's eyes moved. She turned and looked at Liu Yizhen, both of them looking wary.

This is the same as Zhao Fusheng's initial guess.

After the paper man Zhang turned the Hongquan Theater Troupe into a ghost theater troupe, he led the ghost theater troupe to the Confucius Temple to hide it, waiting for the opportunity to come.

"Can you find where this ghost is hiding?" Zhao Fusheng asked.

Kuai Manzhou sniffed, stopped, turned and looked around.

Zhao Fusheng and Liu Yizhen also stopped and watched her movements quietly.

Suddenly the wind started to rise in the empty alley.

This cold wind made Kuai Manzhou's hair fly.

Under the night, the child's long hair was stretched infinitely like spider threads, burrowing into all directions of the begging alley.

Although Liu Yizhen knew that the child in front of him was a ghost master who controlled a disaster-level ghost, he had also heard that she could use the ghost's abilities at will.

But knowing and hearing it are far less powerful than the shock I received when I saw it with my own eyes.

The ghost thread as thin as silk hair flexibly avoided his and Zhao Fusheng's bodies, and spread out around the beggar alley with Kuai Manzhou as the center point.

In an instant, these ghost threads woven into a ghost net covering the entire begging alley.

Kuai Manzhou is like the sole master of this ghost network.

Wherever the ghost net goes, no matter whether it is a living person or a ghost, it cannot escape her perception.

The little girl's body was gently bounced into the air by the ghost net. From Liu Yizhen's perspective, she could be seen crawling in the huge ghost net, like a humanoid spider.

Liu Yizhen raised his head in shock.

The child's body melted under his gaze and turned into blood mist with a bang.

"!!!" Liu Yizhen's body shook heavily.

Then the blood mist surged out along the dense ghost net and spread to the entire begging alley.

"terrible--"

Liu Yizhen's body was covered with goosebumps and he exclaimed softly.

His eyes widened and he turned to look at Zhao Fusheng:
"Where on earth did you find-"

——Such a little monster!

He wanted to ask.

But Liu Yi really didn't dare.

After witnessing the child's abilities with his own eyes, he realized that Kuai Manzhou was not so much a person as she was a living 'ghost', and she was also a disaster-level ghost - no, maybe she was more powerful than a disaster-level ghost. fear.

Ghosts only have instinctive reactions and can only passively use laws to kill people.

Kuai Manzhou, on the other hand, possesses human thinking and can flexibly utilize the laws of evil spirits.

Such a scary little monster, Zhao Fusheng can actually control her, and she seems to obey Zhao Fusheng's words.

For a moment, Liu Yizhen didn't know whether Kuai Manzhou was more terrifying or Zhao Fusheng was more terrifying.

"How on earth did you do that?!" he whispered.

Zhao Fusheng seemed even more surprised than him:

"I got my salary."

"..." Liu Yizhen's mouth twitched.

While the two were talking, the night in Beggar Alley was covered with a faint blood mist.

The blood light reflected the moonlight pink.

I could see that those scattered ghost wire nets were filled with dense blood mist particles that could be caught by the naked eye.

These particles began to squirm and gather together, and in an instant they gathered and turned into blood beads, closing in the direction of the two of them.

Liu Yizhen swallowed back the speechlessness in his throat. He saw these blood beads gathering at the ghost net above the two heads, forming a huge shadow.

The shadows squirmed and took human form.

Kuai Manzhou raised his head from this shadow.

……

Due to the brief conversation with Zhao Fusheng before, this strange, bizarre, and terrifying scene should have made Liu Yizhen's scalp tingle, but Zhao Fusheng's words "She's getting a salary" made the young man feel incredibly calm in his heart.

The ghost net held Kuai Manzhou down slowly.

Her skirt flew up, her bare feet landed on the ground, and the black ghost nets began to return from all directions, and finally shortened and turned into hair, hanging down around Kuai Manzhou's side.

After returning to normal, the child did not look at the stiff-faced Liu Yizhen, but raised his head to face Zhao Fusheng:
"No."

She shook her head.

Kuai Manzhou's words made Zhao Fusheng frown:

"could not find it?"

The little girl said:
"found it."

"Found it?" Liu Yizhen's eyes lit up.

If the ghost troupe can be found and driven out, the balance of Confucius Temple will not be disturbed and everything will be restored to its original state.

As soon as he finished speaking, the child said again:

"did not find."

Kuai Manzhou's words confused Liu Yizhen:
"You said you found it, and you said you didn't find it. What do you mean?"

He didn't dare to look at Kuai Manzhou, so he turned around and asked Zhao Fusheng:
"Have you found it?" "It should be said that both you have found it and you haven't found it yet." Zhao Fusheng immediately understood what Kuai Manzhou meant:

"Manzhou must have sensed the presence of the ghost troupe and found its hiding place."

"Yes." The child couldn't help but be a little happy when he saw that she understood what he meant, because Liu Yizhen saw the tail of her hair raised playfully, like a wagging little tail.

She said:
"In the temple."

Liu Yizhen frowned and said:

"Then I didn't find it——"

"The fact that the ghost troupe was not found probably means that the aura of the ghost troupe is in the Confucius Temple, but Man Zhou did not find the whereabouts of the ghost troupe." Zhao Fusheng said with a smile.

"Yes." Kuai Manzhou said expressionlessly:

"No, but they are."

This situation immediately stunned Liu Yizhen:
"Isn't that the case that you are both present and yet absent?"

"No matter what, ghost troupes do exist." Zhao Fusheng was not angry, she said calmly:
"Anyway, according to the original plan, the headless ghost and its coffin will be moved away first."

She sneered:
"I guess Paper Man Zhang can transport the ghost troupe to the Confucius Temple, so he must have made preparations in advance."

Dealing with evil spirits comes with numerous risks.

Even though the paper man's tricks are all-powerful, if he wants to safely deliver the ghost troupe to the Confucius Temple, he must first put the ghosts into a deep sleep - otherwise ghosts will not be obedient like humans, unless he finds a way to put the revived ghosts into a deep sleep. .

To make the evil spirit fall into a deep sleep, the only option is to find another ghost of the same level as the evil spirit to restrain each other.

She thought of the scene of dealing with the paper man Zhang at the Kuai Liang Village Ancestral Hall. After encountering a ghost, this man's body looked like a lit human-shaped lantern. His appearance did not look like a human being, but more like a ghost. .

It is very possible that the paper man Zhang has turned into a ghost.

When Zhao Fusheng thought of this, another whimsical idea came to his mind: Maybe the paper man Zhang himself was already a 'living' ghost. He used his ghostly aura to restrain the ghost troupe and put it into a deep sleep to facilitate his transportation. .

After the ghost troupe was sent to Confucius Temple, he hid it and escaped using the ghost lantern's ability to ward off ghosts.

Only in this way can it be explained how he could guide a fierce ghost to restrain the ghost troupe.

But there are loopholes in such speculation.

"Loophole?"

When Liu Yizhen heard this, he frowned.

Zhao Fusheng nodded slightly:
"According to our original prediction, the level of the headless ghost has reached disaster level."

And the law of the headless ghost is special.

In addition to killing people, it also has a certain degree of restraint on the power of ghosts, which makes the headless ghost itself an extremely troublesome existence.

Liu Huacheng's situation is special.

His life was extremely legendary, from being extremely wealthy to being trapped in his family temple; he used alms to register people to create ghosts and killed people like crazy, but he still kept in mind the promise he made to the emperor of the Han Dynasty - to guard the headless ghosts for the rest of his life. the end of.

Immediately after his death, the evil ghost revived, and like Po Meng, he seemed to be a natural ghost.

The great evil after death depends on the evils committed during life, not to mention the accompanying great evil, which can be compared with the headless ghost.

Zhao Fusheng hadn't gotten to the point yet, but Liu Yizhen vaguely understood the meaning of her words.

"Your grandfather had a close relationship with the Headless Ghost during his lifetime. After his death, they kept each other in check and just reached a balance."

This balance is extremely delicate yet fragile, and will be broken if there is even the slightest deviation.

"At this time, the paper man Zhang led the ghost troupe, why couldn't he break the balance?" Zhao Fusheng asked with a smile.

Liu Yizhen was thoughtful:
"It is impossible for the paper man Zhang to stay in Confucius Temple forever."

If he sends the ghost troupe here and then leaves, what kind of arrangement will he make so that the Confucius Temple can accommodate three ghosts at the same time, and the balance can not be broken?

Zhao Fusheng glanced at Liu Yizhen:
"If I come to do this, I will prepare a powerful thing in advance that can suppress the power of the ghost -"

She said: "Prepare another ghost lantern. First use a powerful object to suppress the power level of one of the ghosts in the Confucius Temple. When the balance is broken, the ghost lantern will make you invisible."

The ghost lantern can avoid the perception of ghosts, which is very powerful.

Zhao Fusheng once watched Zhang Chuanshi use it once at the bottom of the Huangquan River in Kuai Liang Village. At that time, Zhang Chuanshi lit a ghost lantern and escaped from the fourth lady of Li Guizhuang, a disaster-level person.

The paper man Zhang is the maker of the ghost lantern.

If he leads the ghost troupe to the Confucius Temple, first uses his evil ghost side to suppress the ghost troupe, and at the same time weakens the rank and strength of one of the evil ghosts with a powerful object, the moment the balance between the headless ghost and Liu Huacheng is broken, , the paper man Zhang immediately escaped with a ghost lantern.

In this way, the three ghosts stand in harmony.

"Assuming that the ghost troupe is the Hongquan troupe that just disappeared."

In just half a month, the ghost troupe could not advance quickly, and its power was slightly weaker; while the power of the other ghost was suppressed, and the existence of the ghost troupe was enough to compete with another disaster-level big ghost. .

"..."

Liu Yizhen was shocked by her speculation.

Her words sounded wild and unbelievable at first, but after thinking about it carefully, it is not impossible.

As long as you are bold and careful, dare to think and do.

"But to do this, we need to have a special understanding of the power of the Headless Ghost and Liu Huacheng, and also know the grade power of the ghost troupe, and make arrangements in advance."

A deep mind, a scheming temperament, and an extremely cautious and crazy personality - these are all characteristics of the paper man Zhang.

Zhao Fusheng didn't spend much time with him, only twice in total.

The first time she caught Zhiren Zhang on fire by surprise, but after Zhao Fusheng thought about it carefully, Zhiren Zhang should have been prepared for her to seek revenge on him.

He intends to control ghosts, and he may have already thought about how to cause trouble in the chaos after the evil ghosts of the "former Zhao Fusheng" family wake up.

However, Zhao Fusheng succeeded in controlling the ghost and calmed down the Zhao couple whose evil spirit had revived in time, thus disrupting his plans.

But Paper Man Zhang is well-informed.

He should have known about Zhao Fusheng's success in controlling ghosts before he died, and made other preparations. When meeting her, he pretended to reveal part of Liu Huacheng and the headless ghost's past in an attempt to lure her there. Confucius Temple, causing her to die in the temple.

In the middle, Zhao Fusheng suddenly burned him and forced him out of his 'ghost' state - this must have been an accident.

Even if this incident hadn't happened, Paper Man Zhang would have escaped in another form.

It would be fine if Zhao Fu lived and died in the Confucius Temple, everything should have been planned by the paper man. But if she did not die, he would just turn from light to darkness and escape into the darkness.

If one plan fails, there will be another plan, all linked together.

After Zhao Fusheng finished speaking, he saw Liu Yizhen frowning and changed the subject:
"But these are just my guesses."

She laughed:
"There's a lot more weirdness about this thing."

"Yes." Liu Yizhen glanced at her in surprise, nodded and said:
"If it's just to achieve a balance, why would Paper Man Zhang go to all the trouble to get a ghost troupe." Since he did this, he must have a reason to cause chaos in the Confucius Temple.

"But if his purpose is just to cause chaos, then seeking stability at this time is contradictory."

Liu Yizhen said:

"A fierce ghost needs to kill people to advance. Ghosts that are in a sleeping state cannot advance."

Even if the paper man Zhang has extraordinary talents in dealing with ghosts, he took risks and attracted a ghost troupe, causing the three ghosts to gather in Confucius Temple. So how can the three sleeping ghosts cause chaos in Confucius Temple so that he can Can it achieve its goal?
If the evil ghost never revives, the balance remains intact, and the Confucius Temple never becomes chaotic, what's the point of doing these things?

He was filled with doubts.

"Hahaha." Zhao Fusheng laughed and said:

"What if the troupe didn't fall asleep?"
