Chapter 156 is too dark...
Although the soul has not found anything wrong for the time being, Yu Zimo cannot be sure whether there is any problem with Jiang Jiu's body. He cannot just send Jiang Jiu's soul back to his body as the degree of danger is unpredictable.
Besides, the reason why Jiang Jiu's soul and body were separated has not been determined yet. If it was caused by a villain, sending her back like this would be like sending Jiang Jiu back into a dangerous situation.
The stinky fox is so useless that he can't even protect a person. I really shouldn't trust him.
"Go back with me first, okay?"
Yu Zimo looked at Jiang Jiu, who seemed to have been cheated and knew nothing. He felt heartbroken and helpless. He could only bend down slightly and asked softly in a negotiating tone.
"Oh, okay."
Jiang Jiu nodded blankly, somewhat surprised that Yu Zimo would actually discuss this with her.
"Why didn't I see a single ghost along the way?"
With Yu Zimo's protection, Jiang Jiu was completely relaxed. He took her through the ghost realm unimpeded. When they were gradually approaching the core position, Jiang Jiu vaguely saw a few ghost shadows. She finally couldn't help but ask.
"Demons from outside the domain have appeared in the ghost domain and devoured many ghosts."
Yu Zimo said it lightly, but Jiang Jiu felt a chill in his heart.
"Even the ghost realm has been invaded?"
Yu Zimo reached out and touched Jiang Jiu's head with a soothing look, and after a while he slowly spoke.
"Don't worry, I will solve it."
Jiang Jiu didn't say anything, his eyes drooped slightly, and he felt the pressure on his shoulders increase.
Now that such an accident has occurred, the bait plan has to be postponed for the time being, and more lives will be persecuted.
"The ghosts that were devoured were all evil spirits that were infected by resentment. Unfortunately, the demons from other realms cannot get close to them for the time being, so it will not affect the reincarnation of ordinary souls."
Seeing that Jiang Jiu seemed to be covered with a shadow of depression, Yu Zimo sighed slightly and explained.
"Thank you very much."
Jiang Jiu forced herself to curl the corners of her mouth, wanting to reassure Yu Zimo. In fact, the heavy stone in her heart showed no signs of getting lighter, but instead felt even heavier.
"I know what Ji Chen asked you to do. Now that you are in the ghost realm, you should take a good rest for a while."
Yu Zimo looked away and did not elaborate on whether he supported this matter. He just comforted Jiang Jiu in a light tone.
"You seem to have changed."
Jiang Jiu suddenly turned his head and looked Yu Zimo up and down with strange eyes.
She thought she knew Yu Zimo quite well. He was a yandere with a strong desire for control. When they met again today, she always felt that Yu Zimo seemed too easy to talk to.
Of course, this is naturally a good thing and saves her a lot of trouble.
"Has it changed?"
Yu Zimo was taken aback by Jiang Jiu's comment and chuckled before asking back.
"Hmm...I can't really say."
Jiang Jiu didn't want to say to Yu Zimo in front of him that he had been too crazy and unreasonable before, so he could only turn his head away and say something vague.
She kind of regretted what she had just said.
Seeing Jiang Jiu's cowardly look, Yu Zimo suddenly felt a surge of evil interest.
He leaned close to the defenseless Jiang Jiu's ear and blew gently. Feeling Jiang Jiu's whole soul tremble involuntarily and subconsciously covering his ears, he laughed softly.
"Do you like the wine?"
He deliberately used the voice he used when he was still alive when saying this. It was warm and clear, making people's hearts numb. Just by listening to the voice, one can imagine the image of a smug young prince.
"Don't come near suddenly."
When Jiang Jiu heard Yu Zimo's laughter, she immediately knew that she had been fooled and glared at him angrily.
"I won't tease you anymore."
Yu Zimo's expression turned slightly serious and he pretended to be serious, which made Jiang Jiu wonder whether he should continue to be mean to him or let him go.
I could only turn my head away angrily, exuding the aura of "I don't want to pay attention to you".
But she forgot that she was still under Yu Zimo's protection, and even if she was angry, she couldn't stay too far away from him.
...
Jiang Jiu had actually never been to the ghost realm, and all his knowledge of it came only from Yu Zimo's verbal description.
So much so that when she saw with her own eyes the palace where Yu Zimo lived... uh... eerie and scary, and suspected to be haunted, she stopped in her tracks.
No, this is where ghosts live!
Jiang Jiu swallowed quietly, and the more he observed, the more frightened he became.
A faint green light shone through the beaded and carved paper windows, and the golden glazed tiles should have exuded an aura of luxury and extravagance, but in the pitch-black surroundings, one always felt that a zombie would jump out of it at the next second.
If you listen carefully, you can occasionally hear faint screams and wails. The white lanterns hanging at the palace gate illuminate the road under Jiang Jiu's feet, making it look pale and cold. A black plaque made of golden nanmu hangs on the top of the vermilion lacquered gate, and the shadows cast below make people feel inexplicably uneasy.
It seems that once you enter this palace, you will be imprisoned within these red walls.
"Why aren't you moving?"
Seeing that Jiang Jiu was reluctant to take a step forward, Yu Zimo looked at him with a puzzled look.
The corner of Jiang Jiu's mouth twitched, revealing an awkward but polite smile, and he pointed his finger forward.
"I'm... scared."
Even if the scene before her was a gloomy Western castle, she would not be so scared. Chinese horror is too deeply rooted in people's minds, and she is really scared.
Although the one in front of her was also a ghost.
But after all, they had been together for a long time, so it was relatively not so shocking. Even when she first saw Yu Zimo at Qingyun Peak, she was scared to death.
"?"
Yu Zimo's expression was blank for a moment. He had never thought about this question before.
Jiang Jiu had never shown any fear of ghosts before, so these words made him fall into silence for a long time.
It was also the first time that Jiang Jiu saw an expression on Yu Zimo's face that could be described as speechless.
“It’s too dark.”
Seeing that Yu Zimo didn't say anything, Jiang Jiu could only remind him again in a low voice.
"...I know."
Yu Zimo had no way to deal with the ginger wine. She didn't like it, and he couldn't force her to go in. She was afraid and would definitely be uneasy.
We agreed to let Xiaojiuer have a good rest here, so she must not suffer any grievances.
Yu Zimo thought so in his heart, turned his head and took a deep look at his bedroom, then stretched out his hand and ignited a wisp of ghost energy.
Jiang Jiu watched Yu Zimo's actions quietly, not understanding what he wanted to do.
But Jiang Jiu soon understood what his action meant. Four black shadows soon appeared on the horizon and quickly knelt down in front of Yu Zimo.
It turns out that he summoned back the four ghost generals.
Ginger wine thought.
But she still didn't understand what Yu Zimo wanted to do.
"You guys, find a way to light up the entire Ghost Palace. There can't be a single dark corner."
As Yu Zimo finished speaking, not only Jiang Jiu widened his eyes, but the four ghost generals also looked up in shock, wanting to confirm whether what their master said was serious.
