If you don't give up, I'd like to be your adoptive father.

Chapter 212 The Demon's Three Oaths
Xiaoyu stood on the roof near Xianyang Street, holding a sword, and waited for half an hour.

Glancing at the "Guan family" opposite her starting to patrol towards the north of the city, she had an idea and quickly moved towards the north city gate.

Zhang Xiaoqiao is just an ordinary resentful spirit.

Whether she brought back her husband Chen Laoshi or not, she might be kidnapped by the "Guan family" along the way.

Judging from Guan Chenghuang’s words and actions in the Zhang Xiaoqiao case, Guan Chenghuang should not make things difficult for this village couple who have no conflicts of interest. Even if they are kidnapped by "Guan's family", they probably won't be in danger.

But Xiaoyu hopes that what she has experienced can have a beginning and an end.

She even left the city wall and looked north from the top of a pavilion two miles away from the north gate.

The reason she chose this location was because she noticed that the patrol range of the "Guan Family" was almost here.

Going further north, the Guan family became a little scared and didn’t dare to go any further.

As it was approaching five o'clock in the morning, two dark shadows finally floated over with a gust of cold wind.

"My benefactor, my husband is back!" The hanged ghost Zhang Xiaoqiao changed completely.

Not only did the long tongue retract, the swelling on the bruised cheeks also subsided, the oval face became clean and delicate, and the eyes were bright, clear and full of joy.

Her messy hair was combed into a neat bun, and her white shirt and coat were changed into sky-blue short jacket and trousers.

Ignoring the negative energy around her, it is almost impossible to distinguish her from an ordinary village woman.

If you go out and try to seduce others and lose money in your current state, it will definitely work unless you meet "Ning Caichen".

Her husband Chen Laoshi also looked like a normal village farmer, wearing a hemp cloth short shirt. He was tall and strong, with neat facial features, thick eyebrows, big eyes, a square mouth and a wide nose. He looked very simple.

Judging from his appearance, the name "honest" is quite appropriate.

Xiaoyu had never seen his previous appearance as a ghost, so she didn't know whether he had completed the transformation from a vicious ghost to an ordinary ghost like Zhang Xiaoqiao.

"Benefactor!"

Chen Laoshi also shouted like his wife, and the couple knelt down hand in hand and kowtowed to Xiaoyu.

Seeing Zhang Xiaoqiao's happy face, Xiaoyu also felt happy and said with a smile, "Good, good, it seems that your resentment has subsided, very good. Don't kneel down, get up quickly."

She is now completely different from what she was before and has become a "master".

With both hands he lifted up the air, integrating the inner strength of pure yang evil spirit into forming an invisible lifting force, lifting up the two ghosts.

"Let me ask you, do you know the way to the underworld?"

Zhang Xiaoqiao nodded and said, "I didn't know it originally, but I've been there once and I still remember the way to the City of the Dead.

Moreover, our coffins are in the Chen family’s land, and our bodies have not fallen into the hands of evil spirits.

My uncle once asked a monk to chant several sutras for us.

I didn't feel it when I was feeling resentful before, but now that I am content, I can vaguely sense the sound of the monk chanting the "Daotou Sutra" which has become an invisible thread.

The sound of chanting scriptures looms in our ears, connecting us to the underworld.

As long as we follow the line and float over, we can quickly enter the underworld."

"It turns out that the 'Daotou Sutra' chanted by the monks really works."

Xiao Yu was amazed in her heart, and quickly urged: "If that's the case, stop talking nonsense and set off immediately to the underworld to find the King of Hell or the Judge, and reincarnate as soon as possible."

Zhang Xiaoqiao was stunned for a moment, then said, "General Biantou has something else for me to tell you."

"What?" Xiaoyu asked.

Zhang Xiaoqiao said: "He said that you still remember him as your father. Very good, very good. He will meet your request and release my husband Chen Laoshi, but you must go to Lianghe Beach to find him in person.

In addition to releasing your ghost son, he also has something important to discuss with you, and he has a great benefit for you.

He was your father when he was alive, and he is still your father after his death. He will never harm you.

He raised his hand and swore, the love between father and daughter is witnessed by heaven and earth.

If you don't want to let him down, go to Lianghe Beach immediately.

Now that he has become the Ghost King, he will definitely treat you well, give you wealth and honor, and make sure that the people of West Shu will never be able to bully you again."

——"Shatou" will never be able to utter such logical, emotional and reasonable words in his lifetime.

Xiao Yu sneered in her heart, and said with emotion: "You two don't need to worry about the matter between me and General Biantou.

If you really want to thank me for my kindness, then listen to me, stop making trouble, and go and reincarnate immediately."

Zhang Xiaoqiao and Chen Laoshi were both a little hesitant.

Xiao Yu shouted, "I told you to go and reincarnate, why didn't you listen?"

Zhang Xiaoqiao let go of her husband's hand and sighed, "Be honest, go and reincarnate."

Chen Laoshi was a little panicked. He looked at Xiaoyu worriedly, then asked nervously, "Xiaoqiao, won't you come with me to the underworld?"

Zhang Xiaoqiao smiled bitterly and said, "I once swore that if any benefactor helps me rescue you, I will serve him wholeheartedly for ten thousand years.

This is just my oath, it has nothing to do with you.

My husband, I am very happy that I have the opportunity to meet you in this life. Now that I see you return safely, I am very satisfied.

But our destiny in this life has ended, so let’s part ways now.

You go to the underworld and wait for the judge's decision. I wish you to be reborn into a good family in China in your next life.

Then I will follow you for ten thousand years."

She hesitated for a moment, then murmured, "I hope that in ten thousand years, I can be reborn in China, and we can continue our marriage. Alas, our fate in this life is too short."

"No, Xiaoqiao, I won't leave. We just reunited, how can we be separated!" Chen Laoshi shook his head in panic and reached out to grab Zhang Xiaoqiao's hands.

Zhang Xiaoqiao struggled slightly, with helplessness, sadness, but also determination on her face.

Xiao Yu shouted: "Stop arguing!"

When they calmed down and looked at her eagerly, she asked, "Zhang Xiaoqiao, when did you swear? How come I don't know?"

Zhang Xiaoqiao lowered his head and whispered, "I swore in my heart, and made several oaths, but I didn't tell anyone. But since the oath was made, I know that the heavens, the earth, the ghosts and gods all know it, and I must never break the oath."

Xiao Yu was surprised: "You made several vows, but you didn't tell anyone. What are they? Can you tell me now?"

Zhang Xiaoqiao seemed reluctant, and hesitated for a while before lowering her eyes and saying, "Since you have asked, I will tell you the truth.

The first oath I made was when I escaped for the first time after escaping from Guaizi Mountain.

I swear that no matter who rescues my husband, I will repay him by carrying a blade of grass in my mouth and tying a ring around his neck in my next life.

The second oath is when one gets the help of good ghosts, comes to the City God's Yamen, beats the drum and files a complaint to the City God.

At that time, I swore that if the City God could save my husband, I would preach the City God’s benevolence and kindness to all the ghosts, gods and living people I met, and my husband and I would worship the City God’s tablet day and night.

The third oath was made a few days ago, right after escaping from the City of the Dead.

I swear, if you are truly so kind as to save my husband from the devil's lair, I will serve you for ten thousand years, be your slave or maid, and never complain."

Xiaoyu stared at her for a while.

Zhang Xiaoqiao lowered her head and remained silent, with a strange expression on her face.

"That's all? No fourth oath? You just said that if I ask you, you will tell me the truth." Xiaoyu said.

Zhang Xiaoqiao knelt down again, kowtowed three times, and then said in a muffled voice: "There is no fourth oath, it's just that the third oath was not finished.

If 'Yi Bo Yun Tian Yu Feng Xian' refuses to help me save my husband, I will definitely transform into a fierce ghost, kill Yu Feng Xian first, then devour the souls of the husbands of all the women in Tianmen Town, and also devour all the ghost messengers in the underworld."

Chen Laoshi looked shocked and dazed. It took him a while to come to his senses. He quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Xiaoyu.

Xiao Yu didn't look at him, but just smiled and said to Zhang Xiaoqiao: "What a stupid country ghost, you can't even be a good ghost!
If one wants to swear a poisonous oath, one should also adjust the order. First, devour the soul of a married man to strengthen oneself, then attack the ghost messenger, devour the ghosts and gods in the underworld, become a ferocious ghost king, and then kill 'Yu Fengxian' to vent one's anger.

After all, Yu Fengxian is not only known for her righteousness, but also has the power to kill gods."

Zhang Xiaoqiao was stunned and asked blankly: "My benefactor, aren't you angry?"

"I just find it funny, not angry." Xiaoyu said honestly.

When the hanged ghost asked her if she would go outside the city to rescue Mr. Chen, the changes in her temperament and aura were very obvious.

At that moment, she realized that the hanged ghost in front of her had reached a certain critical point. Once it passed the critical point, it would immediately turn from a resentful spirit into a very evil creature.

This is not difficult to understand.

Even in modern society, there are many honest people who turn into evil spirits after their faith in the law and the government collapses.

It still makes some sense to discuss right and wrong with "people", but it is too late to discuss reason and right and wrong with "evil spirits" and it is meaningless.

If a ghost can still distinguish between right and wrong, it is not a ghost.

Xiao Yu continued, "Actually, I didn't do anything. You don't have to treat me as a 'benefactor' or fulfill your oath on me."

"Benefactor, you are our benefactor. It doesn't matter what method you use to save my husband. What matters is that he can come back because of you." Zhang Xiaoqiao said excitedly.

Xiao Yu sighed, "Okay, I am your benefactor. Now I declare that your slave contract will be terminated. You can be reincarnated with Chen Laoshi."

“No, I swore an oath that I must serve you for at least ten thousand years.

Serving a benefactor does not mean obeying his every word.

For example, if my benefactor asked me to break my oath and reincarnate, I would never obey." Zhang Xiaoqiao said stubbornly.

Xiao Yu was a little speechless, "Why are you so stubborn! Even if you and Chen Laoshi go to reincarnate together, and then continue to reincarnate in the next life, reincarnation for 10,000 years
During these ten thousand years, your reincarnation and life can be regarded as the mission I have given you.

This way you won't be breaking your oath, and I'll be at ease, and we'll all be at peace, isn't that wonderful?"

Zhang Xiaoqiao said: "I swore to serve you, my benefactor, not to obey you and go to reincarnation."

Chen Laoshi spoke up, "My benefactor, you may think Xiaoqiao is stubborn, but that's just the way she is.

If she wasn't so stubborn, why would she commit suicide by hanging herself? Why would she break into the Eight Kings Palace alone and repeatedly?

How could he possibly escape from the City of the Dead, and even swear to massacre all the men in Tianmen Town and transform himself into a vicious ghost?

Please take us in, we won’t affect your life, just let us follow you.

In the next ten thousand years, if there is any need for us, we will do our best to complete it; if there is no need for us, we will stay quietly on the sidelines and dare not disturb the benefactor in the slightest."

Xiao Yu frowned and said, "Are you not going to reincarnate?"

Chen Laoshi shook his head and said, "It is not a blessing but a hardship for a person to reincarnate alone for 10,000 years.

Even if my husband and I were allowed to reincarnate together, I wouldn't be willing to do that.

We are destined to be together in this life, but where can I find her in the vast sea of ​​people in the next life?"

"Be honest~~~" Zhang Xiaoqiao looked at her husband excitedly.

Chen Laoshi grabbed her hands, stared into her eyes with a firm look, and said nothing.

Xiaoyu has a headache.

She really just helped out casually.

If the "person" behind the flat-headed general does not fall into the trap and is unwilling to use Chen Laoshi as bait to lure her, she can only chop Zhang Xiaoqiao, who has turned into a fierce ghost, with a knife.
