Finally, when it was almost dawn, the corpse qi and death qi in the lake were completely purified. Jiuxi casually conjured up some small fish fry and threw them in. Looking at the third prince who was still sleeping, he left in a leisurely manner.
About an hour after Jiuxi left, the palace maids couldn't find the Third Prince anywhere and thought he had been murdered by a female ghost. Someone started wondering, "Could the Third Prince be in the Back Garden Lake?"
The palace maids and eunuchs all turned pale when they heard the words, but they had received a death order from their superiors that the Third Prince must be found. So on their way to the Back Garden Lake, the palace maids and guards all clasped their hands together, beads of sweat dripping from their foreheads, and they all muttered to each other, "Don't take their lives."
However, the Houting Lake, which used to emit a strong smell of corpses, now had a refreshing fragrance and the sweet smell of water plants. At this time, all the palace maids stretched their necks to look forward. There were fish swimming in the lake, jumping out of the water from time to time.
What a warm and harmonious picture.
Their noble Third Prince was sleeping on the cobblestone ground, holding a wooden sign in his hand. On it was clearly written: Dangerous Water...
It's true, a little ridiculous.
But the palace maids still carried the third prince back to the bedroom, and since that night, there has been no more evil ghosts harming people. What surprised everyone even more was that the third prince, who used to be smart and wise, turned into a big baby, crying for milk all day long.
The position of crown prince naturally cannot be given to a fool, so all the relatives of the third prince went to join the second prince.
This can be considered as the retribution for the Third Prince's corpse refining.
However, Jiuxi, who returned to the underworld excitedly, looked at the Black Impermanence Fan Wujiu with some embarrassment. After all, Fan Wujiu was a veteran of the underworld and the chief of the ghost officials. However, at this time, he actually said that he was incompetent and wanted to resign and go to hell to be a ghost official guarding the underworld.
Fan Wujiu and Bai Wuchang and Xie Bian have been brothers for thousands of years, but they never imagined that Bai Wuchang would collude with the Ghost King and put the entire underworld in danger. After Bai Wuchang died, Fan Wujiu's job became increasingly difficult, and several times, ghosts escaped.
Judge Cui, taking into consideration the hard work that Hei Wuchang had put in over the past thousand years, simply said that they would discuss the matter after His Highness returned.
Now, Jiuxi is back, but he cheerfully lets Hei Wuchang step down and promotes Xiaojia and Xiaoyi, who were the gatekeepers.
Xiaojia was wearing white clothes, holding a mourning stick similar to a feather duster in his hand, with his long tongue touching the ground and his eyes wide open like dead fish. Xiaoyi was wearing green clothes, holding a soul-calling banner with a bell on it. Xiaoyi shook the soul-calling banner, and the bell under Xiaojia's mourning stick rang. Both of them opened their mouths in surprise, with their long red tongues dragging on the ground, but they did not look scary.
Jiuxi cleared his throat and said seriously, "King RB has promoted you two to the position of Underworld Marshal. You two must be conscientious and responsible. You must not collude with outside forces or betray the Underworld. If you disobey my orders, you will be thrown into the eighteen levels of hell and never rise again!"
Xiaojia and Xiaoyi both smiled as brightly as flower petals. Xiaojia said, "Your Highness, Your Highness, are Xiaoyi and I going to be promoted to ghost immortals?"
The two guys' attention points have always been so weird, but Jiuxi still smiled and said, "Yes, once you become a ghost fairy, you don't have to be afraid of the scorching sun."
Jiuxi walked off the stage, lightly tapped Xiaojia and Xiaoyi's foreheads with his slender fingers, and a soft light spread in. The ghost bodies of the two gradually became solid, with three flame marks on their foreheads. Even the city gods from all over the world had to show respect to this ghost immortal.
