Ghost King Landlord

Chapter 58
Seeing Qin Guang walking towards him, Muhuai's face was bloodless, he retreated and said tremblingly: "No...you can't do this...don't you care about those people's lives? Even if you kill me, but Can you save them!"

Except for the villagers who were raised here, Mu Huai didn't have much contact with the outside world, so at the moment his life was threatened, he couldn't help feeling a little panicked, but a thousand-year lifespan was not for nothing after all. Although he was panicked, he still caught it. The most critical question-Qin Guang's purpose of coming here is not to kill him, he is just to save others!

Sure enough, Qin Guang stopped when he heard this, and said expressionlessly: "I'll give you an hour, if I can't find them, I won't think about the consequences!"

"Yes... yes, I will definitely find it!" Muhuai finally breathed a sigh of relief, her footsteps swayed a few times, and she sat down on the ground in a panic.

The pressure he endured in the face of death was far more terrifying than he had imagined. When Qin Guang approached step by step, he felt that the footsteps sounded like the countdown to death, and the beating sound of the pointer was like a drumbeat urging him to die. It hit the most vulnerable place in his heart.

"I think... maybe I have another way!" Mu Huai lowered his head slightly, his eyes flickered for a while, then he gritted his teeth and said fiercely.

Qin Guang raised his eyes and glanced at him, the chill on his face didn't diminish at all, he said to himself that it seems that these 100 years of life in the world have made his temper too good, and it is more effective to deal with these ghosts by being rude and direct!

"Don't talk nonsense with me, I just want results!" Qin Guang looked at Mu Huai condescendingly, and said coldly, "Lead the way!"

Mu Huai's face twitched, his face was a little ugly, he forced a smile, and slowly got up from the ground.He thought that even if Qin Guang was more powerful, he had something to ask of himself after all, and he should be able to talk to him on an equal footing, but at this moment he realized that he was too naive.

Since you are powerless to resist, then... just endure in silence.Mu Huai turned around, with a venomous gleam in his eyes, and a strange smile that made one's heart chill unknowingly evoked at the corner of his mouth.

From this moment on, Mu Huai became much more silent, just lowered his head and led the way, without saying a word.

The light footsteps of the two echoed in the tomb passage. In the boundless darkness, the green firelight reflected the outline of the surroundings. The stone carvings hidden in the darkness became more mysterious and strange because of the blurred shadows.

Although Qin Guang noticed that Muhuai had become different, he didn't take it seriously. Although a little pagoda tree spirit lived for more than 1000 years, his strength was not as good as that of a wooden ghost. Not the slightest threat.

Not knowing who built the tomb, Qin Guang was secretly surprised by the scale of the tomb. Such a huge and magnificent tomb even surpassed the tombs of some emperors in later generations.He frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, feeling a little strange, it stands to reason that King Qin Zhao would not allow such a mausoleum to be built for Bai Qi.

"Unless King Qin Zhao doesn't know about the tomb at all, it is absolutely impossible to let it go!" Qin Guang said silently in his heart.He is the king of the same party, so he can imagine King Qin Zhao's thoughts. Although Bai Qi is the boss of the four generals of the Warring States Period, King Qin will not miss his meritorious deeds for such a disobedient bad element.

The general, the sharp blade of the king!No matter how awesome Bai Qi is, he is just a pawn of the king. As long as King Qin Zhao's mind is basically normal, he will never allow such a thing to happen.So the matter is simple, that is to say, the mausoleum here was built for Bai Qi secretly by someone without telling King Qin!

But who did it?Who could secretly build such a huge mausoleum under King Qin's nose?Who would dare to do that?
Originally, Qin Guang would not have cared about this kind of matter.In the eyes of people in the underworld, what sleeps in the tomb is just a decayed body, which has nothing to do with the soul.But at this moment, Qin Guang felt a little interest in his heart. He was very curious, who would want to transfer Bai Qi's body to such a luxurious mausoleum?Is it really to suppress the 40 resentful spirits above, as Muhuai said?

Qin Guang looked up subconsciously. He had been here when he sealed the monster. At that time, he didn't care about the situation below, so he didn't know whether the mausoleum below existed at that time.

"Bury Bai Qi's body under the 40 undead souls of the Zhao army, hehe... Who is it really to suppress these resentful spirits?" Qin Guang had a faint feeling in his heart that things would not be so simple, and he could secretly kill Bai Qi. The person whose body was moved out of the tomb of Lord Wu An and moved here is definitely not an ordinary person, at least he must be a person with power over the government and the public, right?But he was willing to do so at the risk of being discovered by the King of Qin. What was his purpose?

"No, if it is to suppress the spirit of resentment, according to ordinary people's thinking, the mausoleum should be built on top of the spirit of resentment... Could it be that people from the underworld have intervened?" Qin Guang was suddenly startled, he always felt that It was so weird, he thought it was the wood ghost doing something weird, but at this moment he suddenly realized that no matter the location of the mausoleum or the surrounding style, there seemed to be some shadows of the underworld!
The status of dignity in the underworld is different from that of the human world. Noble people do not have to be high above, but live deep under the nine springs!The more noble the person is, the closer his residence is to those abysses and valleys.

The difference between the underworld and the human world is related to the distribution of yin energy. In the underworld, the closer to the depths of the earth, the denser and purer the yin energy. This naturally makes those noble figures, They scrambled to build their own caves in the abyss.

According to Muhuai, if it is to suppress those vengeful spirits, it is obviously reasonable to build the mausoleum under the vengeful spirits to show respect for the dead according to the practice of people in the underworld.If it is a human being, it should be unlikely to do so.

As for Mu Huai's other statement, if it is to make Bai Qi atone for his sins here and eliminate the resentment of those resentful spirits, this kind of statement is very ridiculous in Qin Guang's view.If this is the case, is it worth building such a luxurious mausoleum for Bai Qi?No matter the various decorations in this mausoleum, or the surrounding inscriptions and stone carvings, they all show respect for Bai Qi, so this kind of statement is not credible at all!

Qin Guang narrowed his eyes. If someone from the underworld intervened, then the matter would be much simpler.If there are people from the underworld to help during the construction of the mausoleum, it is not difficult to hide it from the world.

Only in this way, another problem arises, why do people in the underworld help Bai Qi build the mausoleum?Qin Guang frowned. It is not easy for people in the underworld to communicate with the human world. In addition to the harsh application conditions, strict registration must be done, and they must be accompanied by officials from the underworld.

If you want to travel freely between the Yin and Yang realms, only officials from the underworld with a third-rank ghost official and above have a pass order. That is to say, the person who helped Bai Qi build the tomb must be at least at the level of black and white impermanence!

Just as Qin Guang was recalling the past and looking for suspicious persons, Mu Huai suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at him with some embarrassment.

Qin Guang was stunned for a moment, then he came to his senses and looked past Muhuai to look in front of him.

In the aisle in front of the two of them, there were ear chambers of the same size neatly distributed on both sides. In the two ear chambers closest to them, two stiff corpses were walking out at this moment.The clothes on the corpse had long since rotted into ashes, and the flesh and blood on the body surface had also begun to rot, but it seemed to have stayed at a certain stage, showing a rotten green color, which made people know that it was highly poisonous at a glance.

It wasn't the two rotting corpses that stopped Muhuai. If it was just this, he could naturally deal with it at will.But listening to the sound of opening coffins sequentially from the passage, extending to the endless darkness, it seemed that there were countless rotting corpses hidden in this passage of unknown length, which made him have to be cautious.

"I have never been here. If we want to get there as soon as possible, we must go here." Mu Huai looked at Qin Guang, asking for his opinion.

Qin Guang said without hesitation: "Then go over there!"

Hearing Qin Guang's words, Muhuai no longer hesitated, waved his sleeves and released thousands of white Sophora japonica flowers, the petals gathered into two sharp arrows like white jade, piercing through the chests of two carrion corpses in the blink of an eye.

"Roar! Roar!"

The two rotting corpses were severely injured and let out a miserable roar, but they didn't fall down. Instead, they struggled to grab Muhuai with the strength of the flowers and arrows of the resisters.

Mu Huai snorted coldly, and shook his palm suddenly, and the two flower arrows that pierced through the carrion corpses exploded at the same time, and the seemingly delicate petals of Sophora japonica flowers were like sharp white jade knives, tearing the two carrion bodies to pieces.

The two carrion corpses had just been dealt with, before Muhuai had time to take a breath, two other carrion corpses had already appeared at the door of the two back rooms.In the ear room that followed, the screeching sound of the rotting corpse's footsteps dragging on the ground could be heard at the same time.

Mu Huai's expression changed, his face became gloomy, and he looked back at Qin Guang, who knew that he still had no intention of making a move, and seemed to intend to let him get rid of these rotting corpses alone.

Although secretly complaining in his heart, Muhuai hesitated for a moment, and immediately denied the idea of ​​asking for help.He probably also felt some of Qin Guang's temper, and knew that if he didn't want to make a move, it would be useless even if he knelt on the ground and begged him. When he was willing to make a move, he would naturally do it.

Muhuai didn't have time to think about it, she had already gritted her teeth and faced the two rotting corpses that rushed over.Before he could deal with these two rotten corpses, two more rotten corpses came up to join the battle.

Qin Guang followed behind, watching the battle in front of him as if nothing had happened, waiting for Mu Huai to clear the obstacles ahead for him.
