Rebirth of King Zhou

Chapter 78 The Weird Villa

Hou Suhu of Jizhou took all the responsibility and made it clear that he wanted to protect "His Highness the Third Highness and Miss Zhu", Zi Xing immediately felt relieved.

He naturally adjusted his position: from the party involved to the bystander.

Both Su Hu and Gui Zimou are not simple characters, and they are afraid of each other's hidden strength; the two coincidentally limit their "conflict" to words.

Su Hu recounted his "forgetful friendship" with the saint Nuwa, how Nuwa respected the corporals; the most recent example is that Nuwa lived directly in his home when she arrived in Jizhou...

Ghost Zimou talked about the origin of "Ghost Valley" and the major sects of cultivation.The leader of Tongtian who talked about "Jiejiao" is a frequent visitor of Guigu...

The tone of Su Hu and Gui Zimou made Zi Xing disrespectfully think of a scene that is not uncommon in later generations——

"Hey, your fucking 'Ferrari' is in my way."

"Yooh, I haven't even said your crappy 'Porsche' is in my way, you're on your side."

"Do you know who my father is?" The owner of the "rotten Porsche" sneered: "My father is Gang."

"Just a 'fool'? Do you know who my uncle is?" The owner of the "broken Ferrari" sneered: "My uncle is."

It is really disrespectful for Zi Xing to equate the verbal confrontation between Su Hu and Gui Zimou to the unscrupulous "second generation rich" of later generations trying to cheat their parents.But there's no way, that's how he associates it.

Zi Xing was not the only one who wandered off the scene.

Zhu Ye'er also frowned slightly, thinking secretly.

With Su Hu coming forward to prove Zi Xing's identity, Zhu Ye'er fully believed that he was the third prince of the Great Shang Dynasty.

A few days ago, Zhu Ye'er learned that the first prince Wei Ziqi and the second prince Wei Ziyan of the Great Merchants both died unexpectedly; and His Majesty Emperor Yi didn't even know that there was such an "illegitimate daughter" as her, and that there was a "Shadow Clan" The trained guards existed, and Zhu Ye'er believed that the Great Shang Emperor had been transferred.

At that time, Zhu Ye'er thought about whether he wanted to be loyal to Xin, the brother of the third emperor.Unexpectedly, I got the news of Zixing's disappearance.

Zhu Ye'er was at a loss as to who to fight for!

Now, Prince Shouzi Xin appeared again.Moreover, without knowing it, she got Zhu Ye'er's heartfelt approval.

So, the girl began to worry again: how to convince Zi Xin that His Majesty Di Yi has been "transferred"?

The "tit for tat" between Su Hu and Gui Zimou quickly came to an end with an unexpected result.

Gui Zimou is willing to hand over Dong Gang to the Marquis of Jizhou, and also promises not to trouble Zhu Ye'er for the time being; but she has one condition, that is, this time Su escorts Zi Xin and Zhu Ye'er to the capital, and she also asks to accompany her.

At first, Su Hu was a little hesitant.Guizi's purple eyes could tell that Su Hu was worried that she would encounter a conspiracy along the way with a large number of Guigu disciples.

Gui Zimou then emphasized: she is the only one accompanying, and the other Guigu disciples will return to the valley first to report to the elders.

Su Hu felt that Gui Zimou alone was not a big threat, so he readily agreed to let her accompany her.

But Zhu Ye'er thought: Ghost Valley has a large number of giant-winged bats as means of transportation, and there are also mysterious means of communication such as "sound transmission symbols".Gui Zimou's subordinates are likely to secretly follow Su Hu and his party.Once a battle breaks out, immediately send reinforcements.

However, Zhu Ye'er did not tell Su Hu her opinion for some reason.

Perhaps, she thought that talking about Su Hu would not change her mind.

The sky is already too dark to travel late at night.The two vicious traffic accidents that happened before are "a lesson learned from the past"!

Zi Xing, Zhu Ye'er, and Gui Zimou all stayed in the guest room of "Su Mansion" that night.

All three are in a separate room.

Zhu Ye'er lay on the bed for a while, but couldn't fall asleep.

Finally, she couldn't help but "gulu" got up and got out of bed.

She has always been lying in bed with her clothes on. After tidying up her clothes a little, she quietly went out to knock on the window where Zi Xing was staying...

Zhu Ye'er is determined to tell Zi Xing the "secret" she has about Emperor Yi.

Zi Xing was quite surprised by Zhu Ye'er's vigorous and resolute style.

Zi Xing looked at Zhu Ye'er who was sitting opposite him, but couldn't reveal that he already knew the secret of "Emperor Yi's transfer".

Zixing can't be indifferent, indifferent and impersonal.Because, after all, Di Yi is his father in name.

We must grasp the proportion.

Alas, this is really a big test for his "acting skills".

"What did you say!? Say it again!"

At that time, Zi Xing was delivering preserved fruit to an unexpected visitor who visited late at night.Hearing the "shock bomb" thrown by Zhu Ye'er straightforwardly, in order to express "shock", Zi Xing shook his hands, and dropped the jade plate in his hand to the ground, with a "dang", it fell to pieces.

"According to the reliable information I have, there are eight out of ten emperors on the stage. Nine times out of ten, they are fake." Zhu Ye'er honestly repeated the secret he had just announced.

"It's dead, it's dead! No! How is it possible? Father, he was in the prime of his life and had practiced martial arts. How could he die all of a sudden?" Zi Xing, who had already entered the play, slumped on a chair and said self-mumbling.

Zhu Ye'er felt a little depressed: When did I say that His Majesty Di Yi is dead?I mean someone impersonating him, okay?

However, as a son of man, Zixin's concern is "chaotic", and it is understandable to conclude that "Emperor Yi is dead" in one step from "the emperor has been impersonated".

Seeing Zi Xing's distraught look, Zhu Ye'er felt pity in his heart.She slowly sat in front of him, for a while, but didn't know what to say.

Zi Xing looked sad, eyes full of blankness, looking at the white jade fragments on the ground—as if the door of memory had been opened at this moment, and countless memory fragments flooded into his mind.

Zixing performed the grief of "losing a loved one" very well.This is not only because of his talent for acting, but also because he has many memories of "Dead Islander Xin" about Emperor Yi in his mind.

Zixing "tears down", crying to Zhu Ye'er about the memory of a loving father belonging to Zixin's obstinate son.

Ten-year-old Zixin is a young, energetic, trouble-making and recalcitrant lord, nicknamed "The King of the Capital".

For a poor girl who "sold her body to bury her father", Zixin once had a big fight with the evil young man and his evil servants who didn't know his identity, and beat all the evil servants to pieces; Fighting with the servants for his identity, he also gave the girl who sold her body to bury her father as her personal maid...

"He left without a sound, father, father, you are so cruel..."

Zixing's sobs echoed in the room.

As Zhu Ye'er grew older, her dissatisfaction with the emperor increased day by day.Coupled with her own special experience as a killer, she actually didn't care too much about Di Yi's life or death.But Zi Xing's acting skills were so good that Zhu Ye'er was also infected, and felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

"Third Highness, please calm down!" Zhu Ye'er persuaded politely: "Now that something has happened, the most important thing is to find a way to solve it!"

"Thank you for reminding me! Yes, I always have to face difficulties, and I have no right to escape..." Zi Xing took a deep breath and nodded.It's like trying to control your emotions.

After a while, Zi Xing seemed to suddenly remember the most crucial question, and asked her: "By the way, how did you know about the emperor being 'transferred'?"

Zhu Ye'er sighed: "No matter how unbelievable the secret I will announce to you next makes you feel, please believe it is true..."

"What secret?" Zi Xing actually knew what Zhu Ye'er was going to say.

"I am the illegitimate daughter of His Majesty Di Yi, and also your own sister." Zhu Ye'er said in a word: "20 years ago, His Majesty Di Yi signed a secret agreement with the 'Shadow Sect'. sent me to..."

The next day, Su Hu handed over the daily affairs of Jizhou Mansion to a few trusted officials, and took hundreds of cavalry to escort Zi Xing and Zhu Ye'er to Chaoge.

Of course, the ghostly purple eyes with ulterior motives also followed like a fart.

This time, Zi Xing and Zhu Ye'er did not ride together again.

The black horse named "Zi Ye" seemed to be entangled with Zi Xing, so he let him sit on it; Zhu Ye'er also asked Su Hu for a white horse as a foot support.

This time when going to Chaoge, in order to save time, Su Hu did not choose the official road, but took a shortcut and took a small road.

The time required is about five days.

On this day, Su Hu and his party missed Sutou because they were in a hurry.

Watching the night gradually thicken, the road on both sides is still densely forested, with no human habitation; from time to time, the roar of beasts can be heard from afar.The sense of desolation in everyone's hearts became stronger and stronger.

"Oops, do you want to camp in the wild?"

Caressing the mane on the head of the female ghost 138 transformed into a black horse, Zi Xing raised his eyes and looked around.

"How about catching up again? After passing the Zijin Ridge ahead, there may be someone to stay."

"Even if it's 'camping' in the wild, what's the big deal? Some people come from the royal family, but they are pampered and spoiled, and they can't even compare to women." Gui Ziyan sarcastically mocked a certain man.

Ever since she "recognized brother and sister" with Zi Xing, Zhu Ye'er has defended Zi Xing even more.Hearing the sarcasm from Ghost Purple Eyes, he gave her an unkind look.Zi Xing didn't want to see the two girls argue, so he took the lead and galloped forward.

As soon as he drove up Zijin Ridge, Zixing saw a vast villa built in the depths of the woods in front of him.In front of the gate of this villa, there are two towers at least 20 meters long, which are supposed to be "blockhouses" for sentry.

Under the moonlight, Zi Xing could see a figure shaking on the tower without using his "Eye of Primordial Mist".

"Hah, there is a place to stay. After running around all day, I really want to take a hot bath and sleep well!"

Zi Xing turned his horse's head and galloped towards the forked path, heading straight for the mountain villa made of huge stones.

"It's really strange that there is such a large-scale manor in such a desolate place?" Ghost Purple Eyes looked at the layout of the villa carefully, and said suspiciously.

"Whatever. Isn't it good to have a place to stay?" Zi Xing said nonchalantly: "Now let's go to lodge!"

"Wait a minute!" Su Hu, who was catching up from behind, hurriedly stopped: "Everyone, look at those two 'towers'. The people on top seem to be using colorful lanterns to send a warning to the village. I guess , this villa does not welcome outsiders."

Everyone has galloped to the front of the gate of the manor. On the tall gate, there are four gold-lacquered characters "Wumingzhuang", which are neat and simple.

"We are just staying for one night. We are not afraid that their villa is a 'black village that sells human flesh'. Are they still worried that we are bandits who cut paths and rob?"

"It's better to be careful. I'll send someone to find out what the owner of the manor means." Su Hu said solemnly.

Zi Xing wanted to say something, but Su Hu stopped and said: "That's it. This manor appears very strange. I have taken this shortcut once before. Although I don't particularly care about it, but in my memory, it seems that it is not There is no such estate."

"Is that so? Could it be that the villa has its own feet to come here?" Zhu Ye'er said, showing a strange look on her pretty face.

Everyone was chattering and expressing their opinions on the origin of this "Wumingzhuang".As for whether to spend the night here, there are two schools of thought.

Suddenly, a voice sounded in Zixing's mind, the voice of the female ghost 138: "How timid are these people? It's not for my sake. How could that person put his beloved 'Feilai Manor' here? Desolate and wild? Zixin, try to persuade everyone to live in the village."

Zi Xing asked in surprise: "What 'flying to the manor'? You mean, this manor specially 'flying' here to welcome you? You are awesome!"

"It's just an old friendship from the past, use it once less." The female ghost 138 said flatly: "Hurry up and persuade everyone to join the village."

Knowing the purpose of "Wuming Village", Zi Xing was a little relieved; he didn't bother to persuade Su Hu and the others, so he simply jumped off his horse and ran to the gate of the villa in a gust of wind.

Fortunately, unlike the TV series, there was not a random arrow shot down from the tower.

Seeing Zi Xing's recklessness, Su Hu shook his head secretly, and after exchanging glances with Gui Zimou, he also jumped off the horse and followed behind Zi Xing.

It was an old man with white hair and chicken skin who opened the door for them.

Zi Xing murmured inwardly: How could such an old man squeeze his "surplus value" and ask him to guard the door? !The owner of this villa is also too unhuman.Got it.

When he opened the door and faced a large group of uninvited guests, Lao Menzi was not afraid, on the contrary he looked very unhappy, looking gloomyly at Zi Xing and his party.

His eyes paused for a moment on the black horse.Zi Xing keenly noticed that his expression suddenly changed.

Immediately, Lao Menzi became respectful, talked to Su Hu very politely, and readily agreed to their request for staying overnight.Immediately, they led their group into the villa.

While leading the way, Lao Menzi said to Zi Xing: "Our master has already fallen asleep, please forgive me for not greeting you well."

When they arrived at the guest room, they ordered someone to arrange the guest room for Su Hu and his party.

When Lao Menzi left, he told the guests again and again: "In the middle of the night, if there is any unusual movement that wakes up all the distinguished guests, please don't pay attention to it. Wild beasts often appear in the mountains, but they can't attack our Wuming Village. .”

On the surface, Su Hu and others naturally agreed.

The ghost's purple eyes were quite dignified, silently observing the surrounding environment, and a cold light flickered in the starry eyes from time to time.

There is a veil on Gui Zimou's face, so no one can see her facial expressions; her abnormal behavior has not attracted the attention of others.

The old man left.

Everyone gathered in a rather large yard, waiting for the servant to arrange the guest room.

Taking advantage of the absence of outsiders, everyone discussed their views on the villa in a low voice.

"This villa is weird! Everyone, be careful at night."

This time, Su Hu and Gui Zimou both hold the same point of view.

"Really? How can you tell?" Zi Xing didn't agree with Su Hu's words.He has a ghost in his heart, but he insisted on entering this villa.

"Aren't you too dull? You can't even notice the weirdness of this villa?" Gui Zimou couldn't help but sarcastically.

This time, Zhu Ye'er did not refute Gui Zimou because she was her enemy.

Zhu Ye'er also had a solemn expression: "Zixin, it's better to be careful. When I stepped into this place, I felt a very heavy feeling on my heart."

Su Hu's expression also seemed to be a little worried.

After thinking for a while, he slowly said: "This Marquis has a little understanding of geography and geomantic omen. The location chosen for this 'Wu Ming Zhuang' should belong to an extremely yin place. The yin energy is so heavy that it is not suitable for living; On the battlefield, this kind of place is a big taboo for military strategists."

After being told by Su Hu, Zhu Ye'er came to his senses and nodded again and again: "No wonder I feel very uncomfortable, it turns out to be a very yin place! How could the owner of this place build the villa in such a place? Yes Liao Zixin, aren't you very proficient in the art of ventilation and water? This time you failed to see the way in time."

"It is very likely that the owner here is a cultivator of the demonic skills?" Gui Zimou also expressed his opinion, guessing: "As far as I know, there are many demonic skills that choose to practice in this extremely yin place. It will have a multiplier effect.”

Zhu Ye'er nodded, and said, "That's right. The old man who opened the door for us is probably a magic monk."

"Strange, since each of you knows that this villa is so weird, why do you want to live in it?" Zi Xing was a little puzzled.

Su Hu glanced at the ghost's purple eyes intentionally or unintentionally, and said with a smile: "If you want to say how much danger there is, that's not enough. This time I met Nuwa, the fairy fate is not shallow, and the sage Nuwa gave me a self-defense object Just staying in this villa for one night, it shouldn't be a big deal." What he didn't reveal was that Nuwa's treasure was actually temporarily "loaned" to him for use.

The ghost's purple eyes smiled faintly: "We, Guigu, have never lacked powerful magic weapons. Demon monks, I don't pay attention to them. If I dare not stay overnight in the villa of the demon monks, let Guigu's fellow disciples listen to them for a while. Ridiculous."

Zixing nodded slightly.He knew what Su Hu and Gui Zimou said, and he didn't mean to exaggerate at all.

"If the people here don't bother us, let's not disturb them."

Zi Xing thought of this Feilai Village, after all, he came here for the face of the female ghost 138; if the owner of the village suffers a big loss, 138's face will not be good.So I specially warned my companions: "After all, we are here as guests, and they also have the right to choose to practice magic. Go to bed early, we have to get up early tomorrow and hurry!"
