I have a weird dynasty

Chapter 337 Falling Apart (asking for monthly ticket)

After the witch and the two Gu masters escaped outside Tangyuan County, they immediately reported back to the various tribes in Yunzhou that the Five Spirits Saint had been captured by the puppeteer of the ghost theater troupe.

Soon, the ghost ladies and poison masters in Qinzhou who were assisting the Qianshou Army in the army also learned of this situation, and they all stated that until the ghost troupe returned the Five Spirits Saint Girl, the ghost ladies and poison masters in Yunzhou would no longer assist the Qianshou Army.

There are seven lines and seven departments in the ghost drama troupe. There are less than ten core members who can truly reach the ghost level, and the remaining miscellaneous peripheral personnel add up to less than a hundred people.

They have been hiding in various places for a long time, taking advantage of the Suppression of Evil Department's unpreparedness to cause trouble secretly and harvest fear from the people.

This time they were able to be unstoppable, and in just half a year they gathered an army of 200,000 people, defeated the Qinzhou defenders, and captured half of Qinzhou's territory, all thanks to the assistance of the witches in Yunzhou who were able to exorcise ghosts, and the sorcerers who were able to cast poison.

Basically, as long as there is a witch and a poison master in every army of the common people, it will be twice as effective with half the effort.

After all, the Evil Suppression Bureau was short of manpower that could specifically deal with witches and poison masters. If the Taoist disciples had not come down the mountain to assist, Qinzhou would have probably been captured in one fell swoop.

Now all the witches and sorcerers in Yunzhou are on strike. The morale of the Qinzhou defenders has been greatly boosted by the Dongyang County's annihilation of 10,000 Qianshou soldiers, the beheading of the clown dwarf in the ghost opera troupe, and the recapture of Tangyuan County.

All parties pursued the victory and defeated the Qianshou army step by step.

Before the armies of Jingzhou, Jinzhou and Jiangzhou arrived to help, Qinzhou had already begun to gradually recover lost territory and received good news one after another.

At the junction of Qinzhou and Yunzhou, in Tianliang City.

Today, Tianliang City has been occupied by people from Yunzhou and the Ghost Opera Troupe, and serves as the rear base of the Qianshou Army.

All previous external contacts and personnel dispatches of the Ghost Opera Troupe were handled by Wan Hongtu, the box-master who managed the troupe's helmets and boxes. All other key figures were hidden in the city and would only appear when given the order by the troupe leader.

Now that Wan Xiangtou has passed away, this responsibility has been taken over by "Manager Luo", who is in charge of the transportation department of the troupe.

Manager Luo was very ordinary in both appearance and temperament, just like the accountants in the shops on the street. He had a mustache and a kind smile, which made people forget him as soon as they saw him.

At this moment, facing the young envoy sent by Yunzhou, Manager Luo promised with a smile, "I have already reported this to our class leader and sent people to look for the whereabouts of the puppet master, but he is really unavailable and cannot be contacted. I now suspect that he was ambushed by the Evil Suppression Division and captured by them."

The young Gu Master Chengge, who had fought with Sang Que before, stood in front of Manager Luo with the Dragon Snake Boy Xing Zhu, and said with a fake smile, "Manager Luo, do you think that all of us in Yunzhou are stupid barbarians who can be dismissed with just any excuse?"

Manager Luo smiled and said, "No, no, you and I are allies now. We will never betray our allies. Aren't we sending people to Shengjing to help you rescue that old Gu Master?"

When Chengge mentioned the old Gu Master, his heart ached. That was the master he had recognized in his heart. Although the master did not acknowledge him as his disciple, he learned all his skills from the master.

Shengjing was heavily guarded, and as a Gu Master from Yunzhou, he had no way of sneaking into Shengjing, otherwise he would have gone to rescue them himself.

Cheng Ge took a breath and returned to the topic, "In any case, please return the 'Five Spirit Saintess' first, and then we can discuss cooperation."

Cheng Ge had not expected at this moment that the girl named Sang Mulan who had fought with him last time was actually so weak. Even with the help of the Saint, she was still defeated by the puppeteer of the Ghost Opera Troupe. He originally thought that Sang Mulan would figure it out one day and take the initiative to bring the Saint to their Yunzhou.

However, it can also be seen from this that the core members of the ghost troupe each have special abilities and should not be underestimated.

Manager Luo didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Yin Tong... your Five Spirit Saint is indeed not in the hands of my Ghost Opera Troupe now. Maybe all this is a conspiracy of the Evil Suppression Department. They want us to fall apart and then defeat us one by one. You must not fall for their tricks." Cheng Ge snorted coldly, "My Yunzhou tribes have no interest in the disputes between you Central Plains states. I came here today just to inform you to return the Saint as soon as possible. Before that, I will not accompany you in the dispute with Daxuan! Xingzhu, let's go."

After saying that, Chengge took Xingzhu away.

Manager Luo sat in the hall, sighing, "Chu Mowei, ah Chu Mowei, you have caused us so much trouble, you'd better be forced to hide temporarily!"

……

At that time, Chu Mowei, who had turned into a living dead, was in Sang Que's Utopia painting, controlling the red ghost according to Sang Que's instructions.

Chu Mowei stood opposite the red ghost. The ten fingers hanging by his sides moved slightly, and his white hair swayed in the wind. His originally expressionless face slowly frowned and a thin layer of sweat appeared as time passed.

The red ghost stood there, his body trembling slightly, his arms lifted up a little as if being pulled by something, and then pressed down forcefully by her.

Sang Que asked Chu Mowei to control the Red Ghost with all his strength, and asked the Red Ghost to resist with all his strength, which led to this stalemate.

The two were at similar levels and strengths, and Chu Mowei was unable to successfully control the Red Ghost. After Sang Que made the Red Ghost completely give up resistance, Chu Mowei's brows relaxed, and he led the Red Ghost's arms to slowly rise up and make a waving motion.

Immediately afterwards, Sangque made Chigui start to struggle again, and Chigui's movements began to become stumbling again.

This means that between people at the same level, a puppeteer cannot completely control the other party unless he makes the other party unconscious first.

Chu Mowei can control corpses, living people, and flesh and blood puppets of his own making. In addition, he can also briefly control evil spirits and fourth-level ghosts.

In the past few days, Sangque asked Xiachan to capture a few hungry ghosts begging for food in the city, and also tried using the heart-digging ghost that was imprisoned in Taoyuan Village and had not yet been completely devoured by the painting.

Different from the long-term contractual relationship between the ghost walkers and the evil spirits, Chu Mowei's control is temporary, and during the control process, the power of the evil spirits will continue to erode Chu Mowei.

Chu Mowei was a very cautious person, so he seldom controlled evil spirits and ghosts directly. He made his own flesh and blood puppets, and after these flesh and blood puppets were made, most of them only had the strength of a third-level evil spirit.

But one advantage of flesh and blood puppets is that as long as they are not completely burned to ashes, the damaged ones can be temporarily pieced together, and when he encounters danger, he can use these flesh and blood puppets to die in his place.

"Take off your shirt."

At the edge of the field, Sang Que gave an order to Chu Mowei, and Chu Mowei took off his shirt without hesitation.

Chu Mo felt that his body was no longer a normal body of flesh and blood. His bones were made of a kind of black wood, with muscles and blood vessels wrapped around it. There was even no skin in some places.

There were double crescent-shaped patterns on his back similar to those on a silkworm, and the black wood that served as his skeleton looked like some kind of living thing, spitting out white silk.

Compared to Chu Mowei's face, his body looked scary and weird.

"Put on your clothes. There is paper and pen in the pavilion over there. Write down all the information you can about the ghost troupe and everything related to puppetry."

Chu Mowei's eyes were dull and he put on his clothes like a machine. He turned and walked to the small pavilion beside the farmland, knelt on the cushion, picked up the pen and began to write.
