Chapter 225 The Ghost King’s Bride (5)



021 asked. "Do you want the deduction method of the Bagua diagram in the database?"

"Give me one."

"Five hundred points."

Completing tasks will earn you task points. Xu Jing has been doing it for so long that he doesn't even bother to look at the points. The numbers have piled up to an unimaginable level. Five hundred points are insignificant to him.

After deducting the points, Xu Jing got a complete Bagua map.

There are many types of Bagua diagrams, which are divided into innate and acquired. The latter is generally used more in modern times, and there are also combinations of the two.

The arrangement of the ancient castle's elements is a symbiosis of innate and acquired elements. This suggests the careful planning of the person who created the formation, to prevent any outside experts from spying, deliberately disrupted the order, obscuring the location of the wind gate with Western murals. The remaining locations remain unknown.

The center of the castle, where Xie Zhiyi stayed, was designed with the Yin-Yang Pisces in mind. Even what he wore and where he sat were particular about it.

Even every flower and tree corresponds to the Five Elements. No wonder Old Man Jin doesn't let him wander around. One wrong step means death without a burial place, falling off a cliff and never entering reincarnation.

"How about it, is there a solution?"

"Of course." Xu Jing pinched a few small paper figures on the desk, then pricked his fingertips and tapped them. The yellow paper figures instantly came to life, opened their eyes, and kowtowed in Xu Jing's direction. "Go."

The little paper man whizzed away in the four directions of east, west, south and north, swinging his flexible body.

"Was it helpful?"

"It's very useful." The four paper figures represent four lives, and there is always one life that can help you pass the level alive.

Half an hour later, a paper man with green light flew back, indicating that the wooden door could be opened.

"Come on, let's explore the castle at night."

"Now? But it's getting cold."

It's easiest to let down your guard when the sun rises in the east. Xu Jing didn't even need to change his clothes. He just put on a blue mask and took the peach wood sword and set off.

"Wait, how are you going to get there?"

Xu Jing smiled without saying anything, then drew his peach wood sword and chanted a few words. The sword grew larger beneath him, carrying him towards the suburbs.

“What if we get photographed?”

"That's the spirit of our ancestors appearing, it's nothing serious." There's no need to worry about those details in the spiritual dimension.

The speed of flying with the sword is so fast that it only takes two minutes to reach the castle.

The little green man led the way, and they slipped in easily. Xu Jing retracted his peach wood sword, chanted a spell, and after donning a cloak of invisibility, he walked in unscrupulously.

In the castle, apart from a butler, the only other owner is Xie Zhiyi.

I have to say that the Xie family is really stingy. They are already very rich but they can't even afford to hire eight bodyguards.

While Xu Jing was complaining, it did not stop him from enjoying the scenery of the ancient castle.

This was the time when yin and yang intertwined, and one side could be seen as black and the other as white. The little green man did not take the usual route, specifically passing through the thorn forest, causing Xu Jing's already tattered Taoist robe to be severely damaged, and it was directly scraped into strips.

Fortunately, the pants were wrapped inside the clothes and were not damaged at all. The rest didn’t matter because no one saw it anyway.

At the end of the thorn forest, a cuckoo was calling. After three calls, the wind surged and several hidden weapons flew in from all directions. Xu Jing dodged them one by one with his agility, then caught the cuckoo and sent it to the west.

Even though I lost the cuckoo's eyes, there are still countless pairs of eyes staring at me in the dark night.

Xu Jing had already realized that he was exposed. Since he was exposed, he did not panic and looked around for a way to survive.

"Are you looking for death?" A figure slowly walked out from the end of the corridor. When Xu Jing got closer, he saw Xie Zhiyi in a white robe walking out barefoot.

"Come out, what are you doing hiding?"

Xu Jing retracted his invisibility technique and asked with a smile, "Can you see me?"

"I can hear you." Xie Zhiyi's lips curled up in disdain. "Thank goodness you survived tonight, but soon you'll become nutrient for the roses in the thorn forest. Since we've known each other before, I'll give you a quick death."

As he spoke, a black ball appeared in his hand.

The night was swallowed up by the ball bit by bit, and then it turned into a long black whip in his hand.

The long whip flew towards him like a dancing snake, spitting out its tongue. Just as it was wrapping around his frail waist, it was blocked by a small piece of yellow paper. Then, the whip was swallowed by a fire dragon and turned into nothing.

"He's quite capable."

"Thank you for the compliment."

Whoever praises him is shameless.

Xie Zhiyi fished out a round ball from his pocket and, as he was reciting a spell, a piece of yellow paper was taped to his mouth. "Things that take too long to cast spells pose no threat to me."

Xie Zhiyi stared at him, not even slightly frightened. Being unable to speak didn't mean she couldn't use her skills. Three or five more balls appeared in her hands, which transformed into countless snakes as they landed on the ground, each attacking Xu Jing's direction. No matter how fast they moved, the little paper figurine catapulted them to the ground, transforming them into nothingness.

"Who are you?"

He Wenxiu is a charlatan, but the person in front of him is not.

"Who are you?" Xu Jing remembered that he was a shy boy in black clothes and a hat last night, so why did he become a cool guy in white clothes today?

"You wouldn't know even if I told you. My name is Kunning, Xie Kunning."

"Is Xie Zhiyi yours?"

"I have nothing to do with him." Xie Kunning, who was holding Xie Zhiyi's face, raised his head slightly, his expression very arrogant. "Don't mention his name in front of me in the future, he doesn't deserve it."

"Schizophrenia, or one person with two souls?"

"You want to die, don't you?" Xie Kunning took off the yellow paper and threw a few more balls. This time, the balls were smashed into ashes before they even hit the ground.

Xu Jing grabbed the kid by the collar and examined him carefully. Both his expression and movements were completely different from last night. However, his figure was still as frail as last night.

"Let me go." Xie Kunning stomped hard on Xu Jing's foot. Xu Jing groaned and grabbed his vital point with his backhand. "Behave yourself."

"What do you want to do?" Xu Jing's hand was already on his forehead. Internal vision revealed that this person was indeed Xie Zhiyi, and there were no two souls within him. Eliminating the concept of two souls in one body, the only true truth was a split personality.

During the day, Xie Kunning is a cool guy with a bad temper, and at night he is a shy and sunny young man, which makes sense according to the theory of the five elements and yin and yang.

"Don't touch me, I'll kill you, believe it or not?" Xie Zhiyi showed a ferocious expression, like an angry little lion. He stared, his hands were handcuffed and he couldn't break free, and the only thing he could move was his feet. "Beggar, let me go, I can still give you a chance to live."

"Call me husband."

"Shameless!" Xie Kunning spat, cursing. "Disgusting gay, get out of my house."

"Why are you trying to kill me?"

"Get lost." Xie Kunning didn't want to talk. If he wasn't in shackles, he would have even wanted to cut the beggar into pieces to vent his hatred.
