There is a trick

Chapter 55: Joining forces (Thanks to the leader of "Yuxian Qitian"!)
Under Zhou Chang's stare, Bai Ma looked struggling.

After a long time, she resumed her cold expression, raised her eyes and looked at Zhou Chang: "Even if you have a way to replace the headless body with the 'Golden Head of Emperor Shizong', you can break the trap set by the Treasure King.

But you will surely die first before that.

Don't forget - a headless corpse can still survive, but you have been hit by Feng Qi's death omen. Although you only have a living soul without a head and a torso, your living soul will also suddenly disappear when the time of death comes!"

Zhou Chang grinned when he heard this.

Bai Ma's words gave him at least three key pieces of information.

First, Bai Ma was indeed a chess piece in the hands of the God of Wealth.

Secondly, everything going on right now is indeed a chess game set up by the God of Wealth.

Thirdly, the God of Wealth needs the corpse of the demon to transform into an 'old demon', but he does not want the old demon to gain consciousness - perhaps he wants the shell of the 'old demon' to carry out more plans.

Therefore, removing the head of the corpse would be in line with the wishes of the God of Wealth.

"Have you forgotten?
I still have a method to 'break the hell'." Zhou Chang restrained his smile and said, "When the time comes, I will place the living soul in the fake body and try to eat away the dead omen."

“Although the method of breaking hell is a way to deal with the omen of death, it often results in death and there is no chance of survival. Few people can succeed.” Bai Ma still had a cold face, but her tone had softened a little.

"If you fail, I will be the only one who dies." Zhou Chang said, "But if you succeed, you can all break out of this situation.

This is a sure win business, do you want to do it or not?"

After Zhou Chang finished speaking, he stared into Bai Ma's eyes. If this woman showed any hesitation again, he would never join forces with her.

Fortunately, Bai Ma finally responded decisively this time: "Do it!"

The agreement was reached, she and Zhou Chang looked at each other, and everything was said without words.

Then, Bai Ma said: "The God of Wealth has too many plans, and I don't know them. Even if I know a little bit, if I speak out, I will be cursed to death.

But what I can tell you is that the work of the God of Wealth has not yet surfaced - if this corpse wants to complete its transformation into a fetus and grow into the appearance that the God of Wealth likes, it will need more "food" to supplement its nutrition.

Qingyi Town is the land that can grow the food that the corpses need.

When the corpse is about to grow, there will definitely be people sent by the King of Wealth to come and take away the results.

You need to pay more attention."

"it is good."

Zhou Chang nodded seriously and kept Bai Ma's words in mind.

He said no more, and Bai Ma closed his eyes, and his face slowly disappeared from Bai Xiu'e's cheek.

Father Bai, who was standing by, looked at his daughter with a complicated expression.

"Xiu'e." At this time, Zhou Chang suddenly looked at Bai Xiu'e and spoke.

His tone was gentle and he addressed Bai Xiu'e in a way he had never done before.

Bai Xiu'e, who had been feeling slightly depressed because Zhou Chang and Bai Ma had joined forces and she seemed to be completely useless, was somewhat happy when she heard Zhou Chang calling her like that, but she did not dare to show it on her face.

She looked at Zhou Chang timidly, with some confusion in her eyes.

"Bai Ma possesses you, do you have the means to control her?

For example, you want her to not be able to hear our conversations, or show up in public?" Zhou Chang asked.

Upon hearing the voice, Bai Xiu'e opened her lips slightly and her eyes became even more confused.

Didn’t he just make an agreement with Bai Ma that the two of them would join forces?
Why did he ask himself if he could control Bai Ma as soon as Bai Ma disappeared?

"Some things are not good for Bai Ma to know. If she knew, the God of Wealth might also know. This is also for her good." Zhou Chang looked frank.

Father Bai glanced at the young man with the dead face, and became more alert and worried about his daughter's future.

"I, I understand." Bai Xiu'e was convinced by Zhou Chang's words. She nodded obediently, and strands of silver lotus root thread flowed out from her body. She picked up a strand of silver lotus root thread and said to Zhou Chang, "I didn't have many ways to control Bai Ma before.

Now, after killing people, these lotus roots have become more spiritual.

We can do this by sealing Bai Ma in her shell and preventing her from showing up for a while..."

"She shouldn't be able to hear our conversation now, right?" Zhou Chang asked sincerely.

Bai Xiu'e was stared at by him, her head drooped even more, and she said softly: "She is resting now. She won't wake up unless you call her intentionally. But to be safe, when you asked me just now, I had already sealed her body with lotus silk so that she wouldn't notice..."

Finally, Bai Xiu'e added hurriedly: "I did this because I didn't want her to hear what you said secretly and cause you two to have conflicts..."

"Well done Xiu'e!"

Zhou Chang was full of praise.

Bai Xiu'e lowered her head, not knowing whether what she was doing was good or bad.

“We’ll go to Bride’s Pool to do something later.

Then, Xiu'e will need you to block Bai Ma and prevent her from finding out what's going on outside." Zhou Chang said.

"Do we still want to go to Bride's Pool?" Bai Xiu'e hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded, "Okay."

"Thank you Miss Bai."

Zhou Chang thanked Bai Xiu'e.

Bai Xiu'e lowered her head and smiled gently without saying much.

She remembered that she had already sewed the beast coat, and maybe Brother Zhou could use it, so she wanted to take off the small bag behind her and give it to him, but at this time, Zhou Chang had already started walking out of the mountain.

Seeing that he was walking so fast, Xiu'e dropped her hands again, and followed him with her father and her head down.

Father Bai deliberately walked slower, forcing Xiu'e to slow down as well. When the father and daughter fell behind Zhou Chang for a distance, Father Bai whispered in Xiu'e's ear, "This person is not a good person!
He is a ruthless person, my little girl, you have to be careful!"

"what……"

"Dad, Brother Zhou has gone far away..."

"..."

Zhou Chang was walking in front, and the stench of corpses lingering in his nostrils became increasingly stronger.

He walked forward intently, his attention completely focused on the mountain path beneath his feet. Thus, out of the corner of his eye, he accidentally caught a glimpse of the concubine with a bun-like hairstyle and gorgeous clothes, standing face to face with him.

Its pair of dark eyes were fixed on Zhou Chang's head. In the cradle in its arms, a head made of half gold and half slightly rotten flesh was also slowly turning, examining Zhou Chang's body over and over again.

After a long time.

Zhou Chang heard the sharp and thin voice asking the question.

He couldn't hear the specific content of the voice, he just felt the other party's words flow into his heart, and he formed two sentences according to his own understanding: "What do you want?

How about letting me use your body for a while?"

"I want you to put your head on the neck of my body in nine days." Zhou Chang replied.
