Chapter 559 Yo, Lao Xian
"Brother Xiao, do we still need to carry him down?"
Ye Xiaoman reminded embarrassedly.
Xiao Chujing held her for half an hour without letting go. Not to mention her feet, even her chin was sore from resting the pillow on her head.
Only then did Xiao Chujing reluctantly let her go.
The moment Ye Xiaoman was free, she felt that she could finally breathe smoothly.
Xiao Chujing's high ponytail swung happily, "Let's go back to the General's Mansion."
Ye Xiaoman's voice suddenly rose: "Huh?"
What's wrong with your heart? Why did it suddenly stop beating?
"Senior Brother Xiao, I suddenly feel like I haven't hugged you enough."
Ye Xiaoman gritted her teeth and grabbed Xiao Chujing's arm, her eyes filled with deep affection. She was about to fall into his arms, hoping to fall into a coma forever.
"General Yin!"
Suddenly a large group of people appeared at the entrance of the alley.
"I'm late to your rescue. Are you okay?"
The sound of hurried footsteps came closer and closer.
Ye Xiaoman and Xiao Chujing looked at it together.
The leader was a young man with a cleft lip, a crooked mouth and slanted eyes. His facial features looked like a clay figure made by a child with clumsy skills. Not only were the sizes not consistent, but even the eyes were not on the same level. Because of his outstanding ugliness, Ye Xiaoman remembered his name.
"Ghost Envoy."
Ye Xiaoman was very happy that someone came to interrupt the fight between her and Xiao Chujing. No matter who it was, as long as they could help her delay some time, they were a good person.
So she smiled, put her hands behind her back, and waited for Fu Guishi to come closer.
Even Fu Guishi's abstract face seemed much more pleasing to her.
Fu Guishi's legs are of different lengths, so he walks with a limp and needs someone to support him.
Ye Xiaoman glanced at the person who was supporting her, and seeing that he was an extremely ordinary servant, she naturally looked away.
Suddenly, she remembered something, and as if she had been electrocuted, she stared at the person supporting Fu Guishi again.
A face so plain and unmemorable, a mean temperament, like a cup of colorless and tasteless poison...
Damn, it’s Dou Xian!
At the end of Jing Zhui Huan Meng, Dou Xian's weird smile after being beheaded really left a deep shadow on Ye Xiaoman, so much so that for a short period of time, she would take a second look at all the common faces.
Fortunately, this one glance allowed her to detect something strange.
The scourge has lasted for thousands of years, why is he still not dead?
He actually escaped from Jing Zhui's hands.
He is indeed a person who left a deep impression on Jing Zhui.
Ye Xiaoman immediately contacted Jing Zhui: [Boss, what is Dou Xian's current status in the ghost world?]
Jing Zhui replied: [The old and feeble Ghost King.]
He and Zhu Chuideng had a purely hateful relationship, and had happily watched the joke for thousands of years: "If you tell Zhu Chuideng the information, I will deduct your antidote for next month."
Ye Xiaoman: [The way you reply to messages so quickly is just like you're holding your phone every day waiting for my messages.]
Jing Zhui: [Do you want to do the mission? ]
Ye Xiaoman: [I'm sorry.]
Ye Xiaoman was convinced by Dou Xian.
This guy is a talented person. He is not afraid of big trouble when he wants to have fun. He is unprecedented in his pursuit of excitement.
She could understand Dou Xian's psychology. He lived in fear every day that the Ghost Lord would find out the next second. The next day, he found that the Ghost Lord had not found out at all. With the accumulation of fear, the joy of fooling the superior was intensified. For him, every day in the ghost world should be fun.
Ye Xiaoman looked at Dou Xian a few more times, and Xiao Chujing noticed it immediately.
He was a little jealous: "Someone you know?"
Ye Xiaoman immediately used a secret voice to tell him the information: [Information from the spies in the General's Mansion: that person appears to be the Ghost King Dou Xian.]
Xiao Chujing raised his eyebrows in surprise and took Ye Xiaoman's hand.
Dou Xian walked up to Ye Xiaoman and looked up to see Ye Xiaoman and Xiao Chujing smiling at him meaningfully.
Their all-knowing smiles made Dou Xian stunned. He inexplicably felt that his hidden identity had been exposed.
He quickly dismissed the absurd idea.
He hid it very well and planned it in detail, so it was impossible for a small ghost to know his secret.
The ghost envoy Fu next to him is his clone raised from the ashes.
After the Ghost King who could not obtain the land was killed by the Ghost Lord, the land deed remained empty and the Ghost Lord never appointed a new landowner.
Dou Xian had an idea. He wanted to annex the Qiubude area. At the same time, he also understood that the Ghost Lord would not allow the Ghost King's power to expand indefinitely. At this time, he remembered Fu Guishi, the secret agent he had planted in Qiubude area.
No one knows that Fu Guishi is his clone. He can train Fu Guishi to take over the position of Ghost King in Qiubude Di and achieve his goal without anyone knowing.
Hehehe, it’s easy to play with the Ghost Lord again.
Some time ago, he had intended to plot against the Ghost General Ai, but before he could do so, the Ghost General Ai died and was succeeded by the Ghost General Yin.
He did not take Yin Guijiang seriously. History has proven that no matter how capable a person is, he cannot escape his schemes and tricks.
According to his instructions, Fu Guishi instigated his fellow ghost envoys to assassinate Ye Xiaoman.
Unexpectedly, Ye Xiaoman was lucky and several assassination attempts failed.
Dou Xian couldn't hold back and took action himself.
He has already drawn up a complete plan. First, he will kill Ghost General Yin and let Ghost Envoy Fu take over the position of Ghost General. Then he will kill another Ghost Commander and be promoted from Ghost General to Ghost Commander. Finally, he will do a few things to please the Ghost Lord. If he does this for a few hundred years, he will be able to obtain the position of Ghost King.
Ye Xiaoman pretended to be confused even though she knew the truth. She first accepted Fu Guishi's greeting, then pretended to ask casually, "I don't think I've ever seen this servant of yours before."
Fu Guishi replied, "It's an old man in my humble office, a staff member, Mr. Dou."
Ye Xiaoman asked: "What's Dou's name?"
Ghosts avoid letting people know their real names to prevent the source of their resentment from being discovered, so the name of the Ghost King is also kept secret.
Dou Xian nodded slightly to Fu Guishi, who, upon receiving the order, replied, "Dou Xian."
"Oh~ Lao Xian."
Ye Xiaoman's smile deepened, making Dou Xian even more uncomfortable.
People who love fun hate being treated as fun the most, and Dou Xian's murderous intention towards Ye Xiaoman became even stronger.
Ye Xiaoman turned around and asked Fu Guishi, "You came here just to make sure I'm dead?"
"I actually have one more thing to report."
Ye Xiaoman agreed: "Speak."
Ghost Envoy Fu smiled wryly, "I have been following your instructions, hunting down those demons who have escaped from the Ghost Prison."
"Yesterday, I found a group of people in the swamp outside the city."
"They have human heads and snake bodies, numbering about a hundred, carrying the elderly and children. They look like a group of relatives. They are not very strong in combat and dare not compete with the local residents for land, so they have been living in hiding in the wasteland."
"I told them about our city's preferential treatment of demons and invited them to live in the city. Unfortunately, they didn't know what was good for them and thought I was tricking them into killing them, which led to a conflict with us..."
Ye Xiaoman complained, "You keep calling me a monster, and with that face of yours, it's hard to believe what you say. And then?"
Fu Guishi: "They couldn't win, so they fled and ran into the ruins of the living."
Ye Xiaoman felt that the place name was somewhat familiar: "The ruins of the living?"
Fu Guishi said, "You've only just arrived here. You might not have heard of the Living Ruins. They're the most famous and dangerous place in this area."
