Hades
Lu Zhenzhi stood in front of the window, slowly lowered his hand holding the monocular telescope, and placed it on the red gold table with a dragon carving on it.
Deputy General Xiao came over to report, "Master, Jian Weiying has gone down."
"Tong'er suspects you're Duan Qinghong," Lu Zhenzhi said, washing his hands in the dew the maid had collected. He then wiped each of his bony fingers with a handkerchief and tossed them back into the water. The scar on the back of his right hand seemed to have grown more noticeable. "I'm coming to kill you."
Deputy General Xiao bowed his head respectfully, not daring to look at Master Jiu. He only said, "Even if I were to remove his bones and examine his body, it would still be Xiao Pu."
Lu Zhenzhi turned around, and the jade ornament on his left ear, which symbolized his identity and status, trembled slightly, then gradually stopped swinging with the man's steady breathing.
His deep eye sockets and dark and calm eyes make it impossible to tell what he is thinking.
"Then we'll remove the bones."
Xiao Pu was startled and raised his head slightly, but he did not look into Jiu Ye's eyes. His gaze was only on his two slightly moving beards.
This short and neat dark black beard made Deputy General Xiao feel a strong sense of oppression.
"Yes! General, I obey your command!"
Ghost Market Port
Fu Tong'er leaned in You Yi's arms and felt a little sleepy.
They came out after midnight, and now, they were in this underground city again, with an abnormal blood moon hanging in the sky, as if they had come to the underworld.
As Fu Tong'er was leaning, her head tilted and was caught by You Yi's hand, who then supported her on his shoulder to lean on it again.
"Little clingy girl, we're here." You Yi changed the way he addressed Fu Tong'er.
Grandma Dian chuckled and slowly brought the boat closer to the shore. Without pulling up the oars, she hid her face in her cloak, revealing only the tip of her nose, and said softly, "Sir, we're finally here. I wish you all the best. Come here and leave in your own life. Hehe, hehe..."
Fu Tong'er sat up instantly, her scalp numb again and again.
The bow of the boat hit the bank made of large rocks. With a dull thud, it reached the shore.
There is a long street on the shore, and a field of red hibiscus flowers on the side of the street.
Under the moving blue flame lamp, the thin stamens look like carnivorous plants that are about to grow rapidly at any time.
Seeing people from above come to the underground ghost market——
Those ghost market people, wearing scarlet veils that dragged on the ground, approached Fu Tong'er's boat one by one, holding blue flame lanterns...
Their faces were pale, and under the flames of the blue flame lamps, they looked like the living dead.
You Yi helped Fu Tong'er to stand up, but Fu Tong'er touched Princess Tingyang beside her and was pulled back into You Yi's arms, holding her tightly. As he did so, he gathered her arms around him. His piercing eyes looked down at Fu Tong'er's closed eyes under her snowy silk: "Why are you shy? I told you how much you rely on me. You were so attached to me in the illusion, so learn to be more attached to me when you come out."
"Su...Brother Su...don't do this." Fu Tong'er didn't know where to put her hands. She didn't dare to put them on You Yi, nor did she let them go.
Unexpectedly, You Yi suddenly raised his other big hand and grasped Fu Tong'er's two small hands, pulling them away and pressing them against his chest: "You were so clingy to me in the illusion, give me half of yourself!"
Without even looking up, he called out to Zuo Qianyu at the bow: "Commander Zuo, hold your woman tight! Don't leave her alone!"
Commander Zuo Qianyu looked back and had no time to care about here. Those people from the Red Silk Ghost Market on the shore were approaching the ship with bad intentions.
"General—the girls are together, so what if they are allowed to do whatever they want? You are too controlling, be careful that one day she will not be able to stand you."
Princess Tingyang stuck out her tongue and whispered to Fu Tong'er, "You'd better be careful. If Jiu Ye really comes to investigate the underground industry chain of the Ghost Market, then he knows everything from the time we entered here to the time we got ashore. It's best for you and General You to separate. Jiu Ye, you can't just say goodbye. He is very scary."
After saying that, he walked over to Zuo Qianyu and called out softly, "Brother Yu."
"What are you doing here? Get behind me."
