Ke Meiyu secretly breathed a long sigh of relief. Although the ghostly figure was ethereal and could move freely inside and outside the human body, her senses were sensitive, and she could clearly feel a slight chill running through her body like an electric current, making her hair stand on end.
Wang Di and the Little Ghost King had only been back for a short time. The person who had set up the formation was very cunning and did not appear. Instead, he instructed his henchmen to set up the altar for raising the Little Ghost King. They had no other clues and could only return temporarily, waiting to investigate later, since very few people knew anything about this matter.
With this altar destroyed, that person might seek another target, or perhaps he was raising and refining several at the same time!
However, the most important thing right now is to find a body for the little ghost king and completely seal and suppress its ghostly energy. This is like finding a container to prevent its ghostly energy from being consumed and dissipated. Otherwise, it will lose control and split apart, lose its true nature, and fall back into evil spirits, causing harm in the human world.
Such a parasitic body is not easy to find. First, the child must be under four years old, as such a child's body has a wide capacity and is the best container. Second, the child must be healthy but die accidentally, otherwise the little ghost king will be subject to various troubles after taking over the body. Furthermore, they must find the child within half an hour of the child's death.
So when they had nothing to do, Wang Di Chu and the Little Ghost King would fly around everywhere, looking for a suitable host.
Although the children under the Little Ghost King's control were all quite young, he was exceptionally selective, taking into account the characteristics of each child. It seemed that every decision he made required a vote from all the consciousnesses within him. With a physical body, he could better integrate the consciousnesses and fragmented souls of those two hundred-plus children.
Having just arrived in their new place, they were already eager to come out.
Ke Meiyu is the kind of person who's curious even if it kills the cat. Right now, she's pretending to be an ordinary person, but she's itching to get involved. But she hates trouble. Watching the excitement is fine, but getting involved herself would be a death wish.
However, since her rebirth, she has done quite a few things that show her brainlessness.
Ke Meiyu leaned against the truck bed, while Little Ghost King and Wang Di Chu went straight through the truck bed wall to the outside, then flapped their wings and stood on the edge of the truck.
The combined power of Wang Di and the Little Ghost King was immense. Their mere appearance caused the ghostly figures around Lu Xiangjin to tremble in fear, wishing they could disappear into a hole. They were nothing like their earlier sly and clever selves.
"A big bird?" the little dumpling exclaimed in delight.
"You're the big bird, your whole family are big birds!" Wang Di glared and sneered.
This is how it and Ke Meiyu usually exchange insults; they always like to curse each other's families.
"Wow, it can talk!" Little Tuanzi and Jiaojiao were stunned and overjoyed. If their parents hadn't been there to stop them, they probably would have been leaning over the edge of the car.
"Do you only grow a mouth to eat and not to speak?" Wang Di chuckled.
The children showed no embarrassment at being mocked; instead, they found it novel and kept talking.
This Wangdi had been holding back for hundreds of years. Suddenly, he activated the parrot's transformation and could openly speak. Thus, he embarked on a path of endless chatter, chatting enthusiastically with the children. Although he always kept aloof, he also had a kind of proud and cute charm.
Only the little demon king, disguised as a crow, stared at the ghostly figure and suddenly asked in a voice imperceptible to mortals, "Who are you? Why are you here?"
The ghostly figure timidly peeked out from beside Lu Xiangjin, then looked around, pointed to its own nose, and asked, "Me?"
"If it's not you, then who is it?" The little ghost king scoffed lightly, slowly preening his feathers.
"Judging from this, you've been wandering in the human world for a long time, haven't you? Before long, your last bit of consciousness will also dissipate."
The ghostly figure turned its head and looked at the man beside it with sorrow and longing, "He can't bear to part with me, and I can't bear to leave him either."
"What's there to be reluctant about? Once you've been given the Meng Po soup, who will remember whom? Won't you still be able to live a new life? So many people want to be reincarnated to escape their current suffering, but you're the only one making things difficult for yourself!" The little ghost king was a little angry. In its eyes, no, in their eyes, being able to be properly reincarnated was a happy thing.
Unlike them, who are bound and tormented by wicked people with resentment, never having a day of peace and tranquility.
The ghostly figure chuckled: "You're too young to understand. Life is like a rainbow, filled with all sorts of colors. Love is just the most fiery red, but for some people it may be the only one."
“All his emotions cooled with my death, so he devoted the remaining passion to the country.”
"Isn't that good?" Little Ghost King raised his chin slightly. "A person should have some aspirations. Protecting one's country is a man's ultimate goal. Romantic feelings are too troublesome!"
Hearing its grown-up words, the ghost was no longer as scared as before, realizing that their arrival had a reason, and it might be related to the eldest man's wife.
"It's good for a man to have lofty ambitions, but who isn't human? Who doesn't want a family?"
"Where does he go when others are on vacation? How does he feel when other people are enjoying their warm family life? Does he stay at his post during the Spring Festival while others are living happily together? The tougher the men are, the more they want their families to be the support they need to stay with!"
"Life has to be complete. Everyone else gets married and has children, he can't be without them, right?"
The little ghost king tilted his head, pondered for a moment, and realized it was indeed true.
It doesn't understand the others, but it's definitely not right that Lu Xiangjin is the only one who doesn't do things that everyone else does.
It looked at Ke Meiyu: "Yu Bao'er..."
As Ke Meiyu listened to Zheng Qianqian introduce the military unit, she learned that the families who came with the troops from various places to support the establishment of the unit would be living in the newly vacated tenement buildings.
