Hell Emperor

Chapter 188 Ye Jie-taking advantage of the situation

As Wei Zheng walked slowly, everyone nearby recognized his identity and couldn't help but exclaimed:

"It's Mr. Wei! Why did he come here?"

"Wei Gong is an upright man and hates ghosts and monsters deeply. He must be very angry about the ghosts opening a shop in the city, so he came here to punish them! It's best to drive all those spies from the underworld out of Chang'an City!"

"Tsk tsk... The ghost shop is going to be in bad luck now. Mr. Wei is very upright. If he is targeted, it would be better to close it as soon as possible. The owner of the ghost shop is probably very worried now!"

After listening to everyone's words, Ye Jie raised his eyebrows but said nothing.

A few people with advanced cultivation also saw Ye Jie's figure, and they couldn't help but frown, wondering in their hearts, how could Wei Zheng, who was so righteous, come here with a ghost? Could it be that things are not what everyone is talking about?

Steward Hong also saw Wei Zheng coming and suddenly felt something bad in his heart, but he still forced a smile and said respectfully:

"Wei Gong came from afar and was disappointed. He probably heard about a ghost opening a shop. This wild ghost wine town is so gloomy that it is not a place where people should stay. If it is not stopped, it will allow the evil ghost to stay here. Seeking wealth and killing, I don’t know how many innocent people will suffer..."

At the end of the sentence, Steward Hong sighed deeply, his words full of compassion.

Her words were echoed by everyone around her:

"You're right, those ghosts are not here to open a shop at all, but are using this as a trap to make money and kill people!"

"How can ghosts abide by the order of the human world? If we are harmed by ghosts, who should we go to for explanation?"

"Wei Gong, you must make the decision for us. We must not let innocent people who don't know what to do are trapped by the evil spirits in the ghost shop!"

In the wine country, seeing Ye Jie and Wei Zheng arriving, the head maids came out to greet them, and naturally they heard the slanderous voices from the people around them.

Mint's nose was so angry that he screamed: "Who do you think is a bad ghost? I have never harmed anyone, so don't label me a bad ghost!"

Magnolia held Mint, strummed the string and sighed: "Save your strength, they can't hear what you say."

Fu Ling shook her head repeatedly: "People have deep-rooted misunderstandings about ghosts, not to mention the current troubled times with ghosts. It is even more difficult to resolve that misunderstanding. Now that after the trouble caused by Manager Hong, there will be very few people in the wine country from now on. I'm afraid It can’t be opened.”

Guazi didn't think so. She raised her eyes slightly and saw that Ye Jie's expression was as usual and calm, and she couldn't help but feel something: "Wait, the matter has not been finalized yet, maybe there will be a turn for the better."

Following Guazi's line of sight, everyone also cast their eyes on Ye Jie, who was calm and calm. He smiled slightly and showed reassuring eyes to everyone.

As if to confirm his actions, Wei Zheng raised his chin and scanned the surroundings with his deep eyes. Under his majestic eyes, the people nearby immediately stopped and waited for his words.

"This wine country is run by trustworthy ghosts. The food safety is guaranteed and there is absolutely no danger. Please don't worry."

Wei Zheng's words shocked the people around him. They couldn't believe it and thought they had heard it wrong.

"What's going on? Duke Wei actually said there is nothing wrong with this wine town?"

"Wei Gong never lies. He has said so. Is there really no problem in this wine country?"

"How can ghosts not harm people? Killing for fun is the normal behavior of ghosts! My nephew died in the hands of evil ghosts. In my opinion, Wei Gong must have been deceived by those evil ghosts!"

Faced with everyone's doubts and confusion, Wei Zheng spoke again:

"You have misunderstood. Among ghosts, there are also ghosts who have profound understanding of righteousness and deep kindness. Just as people are divided into good people and bad people, ghosts are also divided into good ghosts and bad ghosts. When people die and become ghosts, ghosts are not terrible things. , but another form after the body dies. Over time, each of us will become a ghost. Will good people turn into vicious ghosts after death? "

Wei Zheng's words carried full weight. After listening to these words, everyone around them had thoughtful expressions on their faces, and their eyes towards the wine country also became different.

Seeing this, Steward Hong snorted coldly and clenched his fingers hard: "Now, for his own selfish desires, the Lord of Yama Luo Palace has sent out evil soldiers and ghost soldiers to cause trouble in the world. All ghosts are the accomplices of Lord Yama. They have committed deep blood debts. Why do you have the face to stay in Chang'an City?"

Wei Zheng looked directly at her, and the majestic righteousness that was about to come out made Steward Hong tremble all over. He said solemnly:

"I know that the Lord Guangwang started the war and brought huge losses to various places, but what's wrong with these ordinary ghosts? Among the ghosts, there are also warriors who oppose the Lord Guangwang. They are enemies of the Lord Guang. As ghosts, but still trying to maintain peace in the world, don’t such ghosts deserve people’s respect? Or is it foolish for you to discriminate against them just because they are ghosts?”

After listening to Wei Zheng's words, Steward Hong's face turned pale and he didn't say a word for a long time.

Under Wei Zhengqing's sincere persuasion, everyone nearby thought about it, looked moved, and nodded:

"That's right. I guess not all ghosts are unreasonable. The actions of Lord Guangwang are unacceptable. There will always be ghosts who stand up and resist the rule of Lord Guangwang."

"If ghosts return to us, we should try our best to accept them. But we were impulsive and blinded by anger. It is really a sin..."

"It's not easy for a ghost to come to Chang'an City. We can't scare the ghost away. If this continues, we will force the good ghosts to become bad ghosts. That is not the result we want to see."

Seeing that the reputation of the wine town was reversed by Wei Zheng's words, people no longer showed disgust and resistance towards the ghost-run shop, but instead showed an attitude of tolerance and acceptance. The maids couldn't help but look happy.

The dilemma that had left everyone helpless just now was quietly solved. Seeing this, the maids beamed with joy.

Bai Luo said gratefully: "Thanks to Mr. Wei for speaking for us, we were able to intimidate Xiao Xiao and resolve the crisis of opening the winery."

Fu Ling was slightly startled: "Speaking of which, when the wine country was preparing to open, we invited Wei Gong to attend, but Wei Gong refused because of busy affairs. Unexpectedly, when Xiao Xiao came to the door, he came to the rescue. Didn't he say he couldn't come? Why has it changed now?"

Unlike other maids who looked confused, Yulan's eyes were fixed on Ye Jie from the very beginning, and she never moved an inch. Her red lips trembled slightly, and her eyes were full of gratitude:

"Brother Jie must have known that the opening of the wine town was not going well, and there would be provocations from the nightclubs, so he specially invited Duke Wei to help. No matter how we invited him, he couldn't invite him, but he came here because of Brother Jie's invitation. This is really... …”

Even Guazi looked at Ye Jie with a different look in his eyes: "I didn't expect that this time, it would be Brother Jie who helped us again... We almost won the title of Aunt Meng's Wine Country." I couldn’t even keep my number.”

Mint's expression relaxed, her cat ears trembled, and she took a long breath: "Speaking of which, Brother Jie once again saved the wine country. We should thank him properly when the time comes."

Unlike the maids who were talking eagerly, Steward Red's chest heaved violently, and he gritted his teeth secretly, still unwilling to give up: "What if people have problems eating in this wild ghost wine country?"

Wei Zheng glanced at her: "If people really have problems eating in this wine country, come to me and I will solve it for them."

After hearing what Wei Zheng said, this time, Steward Hong couldn't say a word anymore. With an embarrassed look on her face, she had no choice but to leave and disappear from everyone's sight along with a group of drummers and drummers who came to provoke.

Mint pulled down his eyelids and made a face at the back of Manager Hong as he left: "Lefang, right? This grudge has been made with us! Later we will catch a bunch of mice and throw them into the Lefang, Scare away all the guests there!”

Ye Jie came over and when he heard this, he couldn't help but shake his head and laugh: "Let's forget about the mice. If someone discovers the evil, people will not come to the wine country."

Xie Xinyu also looked over: "If a ghost wants to do bad things, isn't it easy? You only need to do as I say and destroy the feng shui direction of Lefang. It will be enough to make the people there unlucky. I guarantee that no one will find out!"

Ye Jie had no choice but to destroy the direction of Feng Shui. Only a few capable people who were proficient in this way could detect it.

Seeing Ye Jie coming, all the maids looked grateful. Yulan couldn't help but pull Ye Jie: "Brother Jie, thanks to you this time, the wine country can escape the disaster and open smoothly. You once again saved the wine country." Township business.”

Ye Jie waved his hand and was not arrogant at all: "Speaking of which, this time we were able to intimidate Xiao Xiao who came to make trouble, thanks to Wei Zheng's intervention. When the business in the wine country gets back on track, don't forget to reward him."

Fuling shook the folding fan and glanced at Ye Jie. Seeing that he was always thinking about the wine country, there was a bit of joy in his eyes: "That's natural. The wine country is open, please take a seat in the private room."

Under the leadership of the maid, several people came to the upper level of the private room. After taking their seats, Ye Jie looked at Wei Zheng and said gratefully: "The wine country can successfully open in the world, thanks to you for stepping forward to drive away those young people who came to make trouble. "

Wei Zheng just waved his hand: "Those words are not just for others to hear, but what I feel from the bottom of my heart. Along the way, I have seen with my own eyes that ghosts are also aware of righteousness and are no weaker than humans. People's prejudices against ghosts are often That’s right, there are also people worthy of respect among ghosts. If ghosts plan to live and work here, the residents of the city should tolerate them.”

Just as he was talking, the door of the private room was knocked again, and Mint walked quickly and whispered to Ye Jie: "Brother Jie, there is a ghost looking for you."

"Oh?" Ye Jie looked curious, "Who is looking for me?"

"It's a ghost from Tianxuan Palace. The ghost's name seems to be Xuancheng." Bo Min replied.

Hearing Xuancheng's name, Ye Jie's eyes lit up: "Please invite him to the private room quickly."

Soon, Mint brought Xuancheng to the elegant room. After seeing Xuancheng, Ye Jie cupped his fists and said, "Your Excellency Xuancheng, Aunt Meng Winery has just opened. Are you here to taste the spiritual delicacies? In the winery, The delicacies are so unique that even in the Tianxuan Palace, I’m afraid you won’t be able to taste them.”

Xuancheng shook his head slowly: "Ye Jie, I'm here to find you."

"Me?" Ye Jie paused, "Is it about the affairs of the chief accountant? I saw you were there in the audience hall that day. I guess you have already reached an agreement with the King of Tang. Is there anything I can do to help you? ?”

"It's not about the main account. I came to you about Long Yuan."

"Long Yuan?" Ye Jie was stunned, a little confused, and didn't understand why he wanted Long Yuan.

As if seeing Ye Jie's doubts, Xuancheng explained: "Do you still remember that day when Tianxuan Palace broke through the Netherworld Ghost Prison and rescued thousands of ghosts imprisoned in the ghost prison?"

Ye Jie nodded, how could he forget: "Of course I remember."

"Among the rescued ghosts, there is one who is very special. He is the Hungry Ghost King on the Yasha Plain. Unlike other hungry ghosts, he suffers from hunger but eats nothing but dragon essence." Xuancheng said.

Ye Jie was stunned: "Is there such a thing?"

Hungry ghosts who are tortured by hunger have already lost their minds. No matter what they catch, they will eat it immediately. However, no matter how much they eat, they will not feel full and will always be tortured by hunger.

A picky hungry ghost, this was the first time Ye Jie had heard of such a thing.

Xuancheng nodded: "The ghost officer in the palace discovered something strange about the Hungry Ghost King and reported the matter to me. The ghosts imprisoned in the Netherworld Ghost Prison either have special status or have offended the Lord of Guangwang Palace. I suspect that the Hungry Ghost King has something special. Hidden, I want to try what will happen after feeding him dragon essence. I heard that one of your companions has a real dragon. Although it is a water dragon, it also has plenty of dragon essence. "

Ye Jie did not answer, but asked: "Where is the Hungry Ghost King?"

Xuancheng reached into his arms, took out a simple brown flag, reached out and patted it, and released the shriveled and skinny Hungry Ghost King.

"Long Yuan...eat..."

As soon as he was released, the Hungry Ghost King murmured to himself. He didn't even look at the exquisite dishes served by the maids, he just kept mumbling.

Ye Jie touched his chin: "No need to trouble my companions. I have practiced the Dragon Yuan Sutra taught by the Lord of the Guangwang Palace. I can transform part of the spiritual power in my body into more pure Dragon Yuan, which is enough to meet the requirements of the Hungry Ghost King. "

Xuancheng's eyes lit up: "Dragon Yuan Jing? That is one of Guangwang Palace's palace-protecting techniques. With the Dragon Yuan in the body, it is enough to have the miraculous effect of bacon solidifying the Yuan. You actually know this kind of technique? With this The law is enough to satisfy the Hungry Ghost King."

Ye Jie took a deep breath. As he slowly exercised his skills, the dragon essence accumulated in his body became restless at this moment.

The galloping Long Yuan surged wantonly in Ye Jie's body. He frowned, his whole body tensed, and his breath became no longer stable.

Running Dragon Yuan is a huge load for him at the second level. Normally, he can only use the power of Dragon Yuan to hold Yuan Shouyi to prevent his soul from disintegrating. Now that he actively activates it, it is even more difficult. , if there were more Long Yuan, I'm afraid Ye Jie would be unable to bear it first.

Once Long Yuan's power was activated, the Hungry Ghost King, who had just been sluggish and lifeless, suddenly became restless like a shark that had seen blood, his deep eyes staring straight at Ye Jie, ready to move.

"Give him Long Yuan quickly, I can't hold it anymore..."

Xuancheng tried his best to control, and then restrained the Hungry Ghost King in place, urging Ye Jie repeatedly.

Ye Jie didn't dare to neglect, pushed his palm forward, and Long Yuan was released from his palm.

The Hungry Ghost King raised his head and swallowed Long Yuan Whale like a cow. His withered body became swollen, and his breath became strong. In a blink of an eye, he broke free from Xuancheng's restraints, swept Xuancheng away, and opened his blood basin. With a big mouth, he rushed towards Ye Jie, intending to completely devour him after releasing Long Yuan!
