Chapter 242 Chapter 241
After nightfall, Shen Mu and the others left the inn to go to find the ghost of King Loulan. Seeing that everyone really wanted to get rid of King Loulan, the proprietress of the inn quickly gave them a map of the abandoned city of Loulan.

At this time in Zhejian Villa, the three family heads, Huangfu, Shangguan and Xiahou, went to visit Ouyangying. Huangfu insisted that Jiang Cheng was a demon, killed Xiao Changfeng, and demanded that Ouyangying kill his relatives and traitors righteously.

Everyone entered the abandoned city together, but heard the sound of many insects crawling, and quickly approached here.

"What sound?" Everyone looked around.

"Sounds like a lot of bugs are crawling... disgusting."

"...Listen to the voice, there should be a lot of them, everyone be careful." Shen Mu said as he pulled out the Qinghong sword behind his back.

Mu Changlan joked: "Could it be that ghost sent someone to welcome us? Hehe, this King Loulan is really polite."

At this time, under the light of the moonlight in the night sky, some huge scorpions and bats also gradually appeared. Xiahou Jinxuan said in surprise: "Ah! There are so many big scorpions! There are also bats!!"

Long Ming said relaxedly: "The mosquitoes here are quite big."

Ling Bo smiled and said, "Yes."

"No matter how many monsters come, I will kill them with the sword! Go ahead!" Huangfu Zhuo said, then he drew out his sword and chopped at the huge scorpions and bats attacking from all directions.

Although these scorpions and bats look a little tingling, they are vulnerable to everyone. Shen Mu and the others chopped these scorpions and bats to the ground in a short while, lying on the ground sparsely. Also did not move.

"Being able to drive so many monsters at once, the King Loulan's ability seems to be extraordinary, everyone should be careful." Shen Mu said vigilantly to everyone.

Xia thought: "... So the soul can still be awakened after death... Doesn't that mean that he is really dead..."

Mu Changlan sheathed her sword, walked up to Xia and asked, "Sister? What are you thinking?"

"Ah?!" Xia covered her mouth and waved her hands, "No, it's nothing, I'm just worried that King Loulan will be very powerful."

Mu Changlan smiled lightly and said: "Hehe, it's not like I haven't encountered monsters before, didn't they all fall into our hands? We have so many living people, why are we still afraid of a dead person?"

Shen Mu nodded and said: "Exactly, what Miss Mu said is right, Miss Xia don't need to worry."

According to the proprietress's map, everyone came to the haunted city. The city was gloomy, and occasionally they could hear a few ghost howls, which made people feel a sense of discomfort.

"Anyone who trespasses on this king's palace will be killed—

At this time, a shrill howl sounded, and a huge green ghost appeared in front of everyone.

This huge green ghost was wearing a gold silk hat with feathers on its head, and a golden Loulan silk dress. It had a huge belly and glared at everyone.

"Wow! What a fat ghost!" Xia took a few steps back in shock.

Long Ming looked up at the Lulan King in the lunar calendar and said, "—this must be the Loulan King who performed sorcery."

"Yes." Ling Bo nodded, and then said in a low voice: "If he can take the initiative to remove the restriction, or eliminate him, the siege of the ancient city of Loulan should be lifted."

Shen Mu looked coldly at the ghost of King Loulan in front of him and said, "It doesn't look like he is a persuasive ghost."

Xiahou Jinxuan said: "Don't judge people by their appearance, he was once a king, so it shouldn't be unreasonable."

"Hmph." Huangfu Zhuo snorted coldly, "This monster has trapped the residents of Loulan for several months without reason. It is an unforgivable crime."

King Loulan, who suddenly woke up for some reason, didn't know the changes in the world. A hundred years had passed in the world, but his thoughts were still stuck in a hundred years ago, thinking that he was still the king of Loulan Kingdom.

King Loulan looked down at the crowd and said angrily: "Where are you from a different race! You don't kneel down when you see this king!"

Xia said disdainfully: "Hmph, you're dead, this king is still putting on airs."

"Miss Xia, don't speak harshly, it's better to be polite first—" Xiahou Jinxuan wanted to make peace.

Huangfu Zhuo interrupted Xiahou Jinxuan, and said angrily: "Today we are here to get rid of this evil for Loulan City, why are we polite to this ghost?!"

"You want to get rid of this king!?" King Loulan stared at the crowd with contempt and said, "—You guys, want to take away this king's Loulan?! This king wants you to die!!"

"Let's go together!" Shen Mu didn't want to show his mana, but he just used martial arts, supported by the inner strength of the Nine Yin Scriptures, he used the Six Meridians Excalibur and Lingbo Weibu and besieged King Loulan with everyone.

Although everyone was curious when they saw Shen Mu's six-veined sword, but during this relationship, everyone already knew Shen Mu's superb martial arts skills, so they didn't take it seriously. It's just that King Loulan had never seen Shen Mu so fast. Footwork, and the six-meridian sword that he used casually, especially when the six-meridian sword, with the support of the Nine Yin Manual, exerted unimaginable power, became the main force in the team.

Although King Loulan was very angry, under the siege of the crowd and Shen Mu's fierce moves, he only persisted for more than ten rounds before he was defeated by the crowd.

"Strength...the power of this king..." Loulan King's soul gradually dissipated, and he panicked: "This king...will die at the hands of these aliens, will he lose Loulan—!"

Seeing Loulan King's flustered expression, Xia hesitated and said, "He seems... worried about Loulan City, maybe he's not a bad person..."

Shen Mu sneered and said, "Using magic to imprison the entire Loulan City, so that people can only stay in the city and wait to die, how can this be considered a good person?"

Xiahou Jinxuan lowered his head and thought, "It has been hundreds of years since Loulan Kingdom fell. He may have been awakened suddenly, not knowing the changes of the world and time, and overreacting."

"Hundreds of years...? Has it been... hundreds of years?" King Loulan couldn't believe it: "...this king's Loulan...my king's Loulan, ah...back then...loulan was surrounded by wolves Looking around, we often suffer from military disasters, if this king hadn't dealt with the countries carefully, Loulan would have been destroyed in the war."

Xia asked, "Really, but why are you doing this to your people now?"

King Loulan said self-righteously: "Hmph, it is the king's favor that the people of Loulan Kingdom are able to live! But after only a few hundred years, they have forgotten everything that the king has done for them. There is no one in this city. There is no statue of the king, and there is no altar to enshrine, these untouchables dare to betray the king! These ungrateful untouchables, I want them all to die! This king, I will never forgive them!"

"Unforgivable?" The corner of Shen Mu's mouth raised a hint of sarcasm and said, "I originally thought that since you were the lord of the country, you should have the dignity and bearing of a king, but now it seems that I overestimated you, but It's trash."

"You—how dare you insult this king!!!" King Loulan was very angry, but his expression was helpless.

Shen Mu said disdainfully: "Since you are a king and you were born with the blood of the people, you should devote all your energy and effort to governance to be worthy of the word "king". Now that the city is in dire straits, you are fortunate enough to wake up. Instead of thinking about how to save it, you resent the city people for not doing it. Enshrine, and even cast a spell to put Loulan City to death—faintness!”

"This king... This king is a king! The untouchables should worship this king!" Loulan King said, and his soul was blown away with a gust of wind, "Unfortunately, this king is still broken..."

"Ding Dong, congratulations to the host, defeating King Loulan and gaining 4000 points."

……

When everyone returned to the inn, they found that there was no one in the inn, even the proprietress was gone. It turned out that when the proprietor heard that the ghost had been exterminated, he ran to the gate of the city without looking back. After that, I still don't know what kind of excitement it will be.

In the middle of the night, Long Ming came to meet Mo Yi, the elder of the demon world, at the top of the ancient city wall. It turned out that Long Ming was the king of the Yasha tribe in the demon world.Mo Yi was the masked man in black robe who visited Jiang Cheng in the dungeon and killed Xiao Changfeng.

The next day, everyone walked out of the inn, and saw that the deserted Loulan street suddenly became lively, and people cheered and celebrated on the street.

Xia smiled and said: "Look, Loulan is very lively now, there are so many people on the street."

Shen Mu nodded and said with a smile: "Although it was a mistake this time, it is not in vain to save the people here."

"Benefactors!" Seeing everyone coming out of the inn, the proprietress hurriedly stepped forward and bowed deeply: "Thank the true god for sending you here. Thanks to you, Loulan City has returned to its original state. How can we repay you?" ah!"

Xia Hou Jinxuan waved his hand and said with a smile: "You have too much reputation, shopkeeper, and I really dare not take it as a reward."

"As the saying goes, if you survive a catastrophe, you will have good fortune." Shen Mu said: "Everyone was trapped in this dry city for several months, and they were able to persist until they were rescued with only a little well water. With this tenacity, there must be hope for the revival of the ancient city of Loulan. "

At this time, the people of Loulan also gathered around, thanked Shen Mu and the others, and said, "Benefactor, you don't know, but after we were trapped in the city for a few months, the water source was cut off."

"Yes, everyone thought that we were going to die of thirst here. But no one expected that it would start to rain every now and then in this desert. Thanks to the rain, we were able to survive until now... Thinking about it now, then It must be the gift of the true god. You must have been guided by the true god to come here to save us."

The proprietress of the inn warmly said: "Benefactors, please be sure to stay to participate in our celebration and accept our hospitality."

"Yes, yes, yes! Please be sure to stay for a few more days!" Loulan people also said repeatedly, and handed some Loulan delicacies to Shen Mu and the others, as if they regarded Shen Mu and the others as gods.

Xia took the Loulan delicacy from the crowd and said, "Thank you for your kindness, don't worry! There are so many good wines and delicious food here, we are reluctant to leave."

Seeing that everyone was going to stay for a few days, the proprietress was very happy and said: "Hehe, that's great, you can stay as long as you want in my store. Then I'll go and prepare some delicious food for you now, waiting for you You can have a good meal when you come back from shopping in the city!"

Xia said: "That's right, I'm also somewhat interested in the customs of this place. I'm going to taste the difference between the wine here and the wine in the Central Plains!"

"Well, then I'll go to the chamber of commerce here to see if I can find a caravan to take us back to the Central Plains." Huangfu Zhuo said and walked to the harem of the chamber of commerce's defense line.

The crowd dispersed, Shen Mu saw that Jiang Cheng had been taciturn, and thought he hadn't let go of the burden in his heart, so he invited him to wander around the city together and said, "Brother Jiang, follow me to the grocery stall and buy some items that may be used on the road .”

"Okay." Jiang Cheng nodded, and the two walked towards the grocery store in Loulan City.

"Come and see, these are the best things in our store!" The grocery store owner yelled in the small store.

Shen Mu and Jiang Cheng came to the grocery store.

"—Ah!" The owner of the grocery store hurried forward when he saw the two of them, and said enthusiastically, "Look at your clothes... Could it be that you are the benefactor who saved us! You are the most honorable people in the history of my shop." guests!"

Shen Mu waved his hands and said with a smile, "That's too serious."

The owner of the grocery store said in a low voice: "Although it's a bit disrespectful, I still have to say that the wraith monster is really harmful, thank you for getting rid of him, ah! By the way, I have a few good things, In order to express my gratitude, I will give it to you!"

As he said that, the owner of the grocery store picked up the two carved Loulan handicrafts in the store, and respectfully said to Shen Mu and the two: "Please accept it."

Jiang Cheng hesitated: "This..."

The owner of the grocery store said earnestly: "Without you, we might all die here. I'm not very rich, but please accept these things!"

"This, this..." Jiang Cheng was a little embarrassed.

Shen Mu smiled and said, "Brother Jiang, please accept it. This is the shopkeeper's wish, so it's hard to refuse."

The grocery store owner quickly said, "Yes, yes!"

"Thank you very much." Jiang accepted the gift from the boss and thanked him.

The two were on the bluestone road in Loulan. Seeing Jiang Cheng's sad face, Shen Mu said, "Brother Jiang. I see that you have been taciturn all the way from Zhejian Villa. Don't think too much about the previous troubles. It's always going to get better."

"...What you said is true." Jiang Chengdao: "I will pay more attention to my words and deeds in the future, so as not to make you worry about me all the time."

"I mean..." There was a wry smile on the corner of Shen Mu's mouth, he shook his head and sighed, "Forget it."

Along the way, the people passing by kept saying hello to Shen Mu and Jiang Cheng, Jiang Cheng said: "I didn't expect to get rid of the demons and make the people here so happy..."

Shen Mu nodded and said: "The King of Loulan is a disaster for the world, we will get rid of him, and the people will be happy to escape from death. But if he cares about his subjects and uses his own power to bring water here, I am afraid that the people in the city will be happy." The people really want to worship him as the incarnation of a god. Ah, aren’t there Young Master Long and Daoist Ling Bo over there?”

Saying that, the two came to the Loulan Buddha and met Long Ming and Ling Bo who seemed to be chatting about something, Taoist Ling Bo seemed to have something on his mind, turned and left.

Shen Mu looked at Ling Bo's leaving expression, walked up to the hesitant Long Ming, and asked, "Where is Daoist Ling Bo going?"

Seeing that it was Shen Mu and Jiang Cheng, Long Ming shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know either. Friends make friends, they are close but not compatible, and I don't like to ask about everything."

Shen Mu watched the guy pretending to be compared, and said with a faint smile: "What Mr. Long said is true."

There was a slight smile in the corner of Long Ming's eyes, he looked at the silent Jiang Cheng and said, "Looking at Jiang Shaoxia's unhesitating expression, I wonder if there is something bothering him? How old is Long, maybe he can enlighten Jiang Shaoxia a little bit."

"..." Jiang Cheng said with a worried look, "Young Master Long, I have something I want to ask for advice."
