Witness the flow, the lady is really beautiful

Chapter 189: The Red-haired Ghost King who devoured the City God, why doesn’t he lead me back to the world of the living?

Looking at the immortal camp in the distance, Liu Tang sneered, "I was successfully asked for help once before, and you want to ask for help again this time? You wish!"

On the Immortal God camp side, it would take at least the City God and several Yin Gods of similar strength to stop Liu Tang, so the Immortal God camp generally did not dare to attack rashly. But Liu Tang was different, his strength allowed him to roam outside the Immortal God camp unscrupulously. As long as he was not trapped deep in the enemy camp, it would be difficult for the other side to deal with him.

Suddenly, Liu Tang frowned slightly, took out a token that was broken into two pieces, and murmured, "That woman is dead? Could it be that something happened to Lu Pan in the mortal world?"

Isn't it that he spent so much energy just to seize the position of Ju County City God? If something unexpected really happened, wouldn't all the ghost soldiers under his command have died in vain?

Thinking of this, Liu Tang hurried back to the camp, and then used a secret method to contact Lu Pan. As the ghost power surged, a vortex of ghost energy suddenly appeared in the air. After a while, a figure appeared in the vortex of ghost energy, which was the image of Lu Pan.

Lu Pan said respectfully, "I wonder why Lord Ghost King has contacted me urgently?"

"The Heart-Eating Ghost is dead, but there's a problem with your plan in the world of the living?" Liu Tang asked puzzledly.

Hearing this, Lu Pan was slightly surprised: "No way? It hasn't been long since she and I separated. Could it be that she offended someone later and was killed?"

Liu Tang looked at Lu Pan carefully, and after confirming that he was not the one who killed him, he said, "You'd better move quickly in the world of the living. The City God of Ju County is already asking for help. If he finds that things are impossible, he might abandon this place in the underworld and hide back in the world of the living. It will be difficult to deal with him then!"

Lu Pan's heart sank: I didn't expect things to develop so quickly, it seems I have to speed up too!

That night, Lu Pan entered Zhu Erdan's dream again. This time, he could clearly feel the changes in Zhu Erdan's mind. He was no longer dull, but his words and actions were clear and logical. He secretly sighed: This is worthy of being a heart produced by the Heart-Eating Ghost. It not only replenishes Qi and blood, but also increases soul power!

After hesitating for a while, Zhu Erdan said, "Brother Lu, could you do me another favor?"

Lu Pan asked curiously, "What help? Tell me, brother!"

"I hope Brother Lu can help Jiao Niang change her head. If Brother can change her heart, then changing her head shouldn't be difficult, right?" Zhu Erdan requested.

Hearing this, Lu Pan narrowed his eyes slightly and thought: Okay, I'll take this opportunity to let you help me do something!

"Brother, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that I have already used up a lot of my divine power to replace your heart last time, and I'm afraid I won't be able to replace your head now!

But…" Having said this, Lu Pan deliberately paused.

Zhu Erdan really took the bait and said hurriedly, "But what? Big brother, just tell me what you want. As long as I can do it, I will never refuse!"

Hearing this, Lu Pan continued: "However, if you can help me increase the incense, then my divine power should be enough to complete the head replacement!"

"Increase the incense? I don't think it's a difficult thing. Starting tomorrow I will pay people to burn incense for you. That should be okay, right?" Zhu Erdan said without hesitation.

Lu Pan thought about it. Although the incense power obtained by asking people to burn incense is not pure enough because of lack of piety, it is okay if the quantity is increased. So he nodded: "In that case, it depends on your performance. The more people burn incense, the faster my power will recover, and then I can help Jiao Niang change her head!"

This kind of behavior is typical of malicious deception and robbery of incense offerings. If the City God were there, he would naturally discover this vicious competition and stop and punish it. But who can blame him for being left in the underworld and unable to come back for the time being?

Sure enough, the next day Zhu Erdan posted a notice at the entrance of the City God Temple, stating that anyone who went in to burn a stick of incense for Lu Pan would receive a penny. Although one penny was not much, it was a free bargain. Anyone who didn't take advantage of it was an asshole. In particular, incense and candles were all provided by Zhu Erdan. They only needed to go in and out, so there was an endless stream of people coming to burn incense.

Lu Pan in the City God Temple was delighted as he watched the incense sticks constantly floating towards him: if the quality was not good enough, he could make up for it with quantity. If he could do this every day, it wouldn't take too long. Even if the City God came back, he would have the confidence to defeat him. Then, as long as he could snatch the City God Seal, he would be the new City God in full right!

Little did he know that there was someone watching him in the void. It was Chen Mo. Chen Mo even saw clearly his previous contact with Liu Tang, the red-haired ghost king of the underworld.

"Hehe, it's a typical case of when there is no tiger in the mountain, the monkey becomes king. Now you help me collect these incense powers. When I fish out the ghost king from the underworld, all of them will be mine!" Chen Mo sneered secretly in his heart.

Chen Mo had devoured the City God of Guobei County before, so he knew that the [Hungry Ghost Realm] could also devour the power of incense. Seeing Lu Pan absorbing the power of incense, he did not intend to stop him. Anyway, he would be devoured by him sooner or later.

As for going directly into the underworld to fight those ghost kings? Chen Mo really didn't have that confidence for the time being. After all, it was not a big deal for Chen Mo to deal with one or two ghost kings. If all the ghost kings of the underworld joined forces to target him, even Chen Mo couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't capsize!

This is also the reason why Chen Mo had conquered the City God of Guangping County before. The underworld must have its own power, right? Otherwise, if he manages the entire underworld by himself, will he have time to travel around with his women?

Half a month passed in a flash. After enjoying the monopoly of incense for half a month, Lu Pan finally decided to help Zhu Erdan's wife change her head.

Lu Pan first used his divine power, and after a search, he finally found a suitable target. She was the daughter of a wealthy family in Ju County. She had been weak and sickly since childhood, but had an extraordinary appearance.

After showing the daughter's appearance to Zhu Erdan, Zhu Erdan said, "Okay, okay, this is her. Please help my wife change her head!"

Lu Pan nodded: "Don't worry, leave it to me next. I promise you will see a different young lady tomorrow!"

The next day, Zhu Erdan woke up earlier than Jiao Niang, which was rare. The first thing he did when he woke up was to look at the person next to him. Then his eyes suddenly widened, not with fear, but with surprise: "Ha, ha, it really worked!"

His voice woke up the sleeping lady. She rubbed her eyes and said sleepily, "Husband, what's the matter?"

Zhu Erdan did not answer this question, but said with a gleam in his eyes: "Madam, it's still early, we..."

Omit 10,000 words here!

The spring breeze is proud of horseshoe disease, seeing Chang'an flowers in one day.

Ever since he had his heart replaced and Jiao Niang had her head replaced, Jourdan suddenly felt that his life was complete. The only thing that made him somewhat dissatisfied was perhaps that Jiao Niang could no longer show herself in front of the world.

Firstly, many people knew the previous bride, and if acquaintances noticed something unusual, it would be hard to explain; secondly, the head of the rich businessman’s daughter was lost, so the rich businessman directly issued a huge reward to find his daughter’s lost head, wanting to bury his daughter in peace. If she was recognized, it would be a big trouble again!

……

What is coming will eventually come. After such a long battle, and with no news from the ghost soldiers sent for help, the City God of Ju County finally couldn't hold on any longer. After several ghost gods around him were seriously injured by Liu Tang, the City God of Ju County had no choice but to retreat back to the world of the living.

The City God has the ability to travel between Yin and Yang, which many ghost kings cannot do. So even if Liu Tang wanted to stop him, he had no way to do it. So he could only secretly contact Lu Pan in the world of the living and explain the situation here to him.

Lu Pan's heart trembled, but he quickly calmed down when he felt the abundant divine power in his body.

The Ju County City God was stunned when he returned to his City God Temple: What the hell, which beast did this? They destroyed the incense burner in front of my statue? No wonder I always feel that the power of incense is not replenished in the underworld. Where does the incense come from when the incense burner is gone?

Oh, by the way, where is Lu Pan? Didn't he stay in the mortal world to watch over him?

Turning to look at the statue of Lu Pan, his eyes suddenly widened: What the hell is this incense burner that is bigger than a water tank? And the full of burnt incense sticks... I am the City God of Ju County, why are all the people in the city worshipping Lu Pan?

Talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here!

Lu Pan's figure emerged from the void and said respectfully, "Greetings to the City God!"

The City God of Ju County frowned and said, "Lu Pan, how did you do this? The incense burner in front of my statue was lost? And what about the incense in front of your statue?"

He was already prepared. If Lu Pan's reasons were not sufficient, he wouldn't mind giving him a good beating. It was just the right thing for him to suffer a defeat in the underworld and have no place to vent his anger.

“Master, you have misunderstood. This huge vat was originally prepared for you, but as you know, you are too busy in the underworld to manage the affairs of the living world, so I have to act on your behalf. As a result, the people all think that I am the most effective, so they turn around and worship me!

I originally refused, but a few days ago a powerful monster came to Ju County City. I was no match for it, so I could only use the power of incense to improve my strength, and then I drove the monster out of the city.

In order to prevent the monster from coming back, I originally planned to inform you to return to the world of the living, but thinking of the fierce battle in the underworld, I was afraid that you would be distracted, so I can only temporarily stop the incense and wait for you to come back!" As he said this, Lu Pan showed a helpless look.

Upon hearing this, the City God of Ju County felt something was wrong, but he couldn't remember what it was for a moment, so he could only say, "I will not pursue the previous matter, but from now on, the incense must be based on me!"

Lu Pan nodded and said, "Don't worry, sir, this is how it should be!"

After saying that, as if remembering something, Lu Pan said, "Master, you are back just in time. Now there is another monster in the city. It is very difficult to deal with. I am afraid that only a fairy like you can deal with it. This is also a good opportunity for you to show your power. As long as you deal with the monster, I believe that the people in the city will come to you spontaneously to burn incense and pray for blessings!"

Most people like to hear good words, and Yin Shen is no exception. The City God is quite satisfied with Lu Pan's performance: "Well, since there is a monster causing trouble in the city, then this god, as the City God who protects the territory and the people, naturally cannot ignore it. Lead the way, this god will eliminate this monster for the people!"

Not long after Lu Pan and the City God left, several figures quietly entered the City God Temple. The leader was Zhu Erdan, and the others were Zhu Erdan's servants, all young and strong.

When they arrived in front of the City God statue, one of the servants asked worriedly, "Master, are we really going to do this? Will it anger the gods?"

Zhu Erdan looked at the statue of the City God in front of him. He felt guilty as if the City God was staring at him. But he soon thought of what his elder brother Lu Pan said:

"Brother, I'm not allowed to help you change your head and heart. Once the City God finds out, I'll be punished, but you'll probably be implicated too. You don't want to go back to being stupid and laughed at, do you? Or do you think your current wife is not pretty?

As long as you help me get rid of the statue of the City God and I succeed in usurping the throne, not only will you be fine, but I will also take better care of you in the future. Apart from anything else, in the city of Ju County, you will definitely be able to get whatever you want.

Brother, you are a smart man, you should know how to choose, right? "

Thinking of his increasingly wealthy family, the respectful looks from the people around him, and his charming wife, Zhu Erdan gritted his teeth and said, "Will this anger the gods? Oh, whether this god can survive today is another matter!

Smash it for me, and I'll give each of you 100 taels of silver as a reward after the job is done!"

No one can take away everything I have now!

When several servants heard that they would receive one hundred taels of silver as a reward after the mission was accomplished, their eyes lit up. You know, an ordinary person might not be able to save ten taels of silver in a year, and one hundred taels is equivalent to at least ten years of hard work!

It is said that there will always be brave men when there is a big reward. This is the case now. Several servants looked at each other and became ferocious when they looked at the statue.

At the same time, on the other side

The City God of Ju County, who had just dealt with a pig demon, frowned and said, "Is this the difficult demon you mentioned? It's not that great. Could it be that you have been slacking off in your cultivation recently?"

"How can my strength compare with yours? Isn't it normal that the enemy that I think is invincible is vulnerable in your eyes?" Lu Pan answered respectfully while secretly praying that nothing unexpected happened to Zhu Erdan.

As for why he didn't use his divine power to investigate the situation at the City God Temple, it was naturally because he was afraid of alarming the City God. What if the other party also noticed the movement over there, wouldn't all his efforts be wasted?

The City God of Ju County was about to say something, but his body suddenly shook, and even his incense-burning body became much dimmer.

"How could this happen? Wait... someone destroyed my statue? He's looking for death!" The City God of Ju County quickly discovered the problem and couldn't help but get angry.

He was just about to return to the City God Temple when he suddenly felt creepy. This was a sign of danger. Although he subconsciously took defensive measures and avoided the attack, the statue was destroyed, he was seriously injured, and he was caught off guard, so he was still hit.

His divine body was blown away on the spot, and the light on his body dimmed again, but he didn't care about that at this time. While dodging the attack, he said in disbelief: "Lu Pan, you are so bold, how dare you commit treason?"

Lu Pan sneered: "Master City God, times have changed. Now both the underworld and the world of the living are in chaos. Even the more powerful immortals are seeking profit for themselves, let alone me?

If I have to blame someone, I can only blame this world. If it were a peaceful and prosperous era, I would be able to go to other places to be a city god based on my achievements. But who made the princes fight each other now? In order not to be cannon fodder, I can only think of ways to become stronger! "

"Lu Pan, stop being so high-sounding. No matter what you say, it can't change the fact that you are committing treason. But don't think you can defeat me by a sneak attack!" The City God of Ju County didn't buy his talk at all and retorted directly.

"Hmph, let's give it a try!" After saying that, Lu Pan launched another attack on the City God of Ju County.

After a while, the increasingly weak Ju County City God said in disbelief: "How is it possible? Your strength..."

"You don't think that I absorbed all the incense from the whole city in vain, do you? You were injured in the underworld, and your incense has been cut off. Even if I don't let people smash your statue, you may not be able to do anything to me, not to mention that your statue has been destroyed and you were seriously injured by my sneak attack. For the sake of our past friendship, as long as you hand over the City God's Seal, I will spare your life!

You'd better think it over carefully. With your current strength, you can't escape from my grasp. If you self-destruct the seal, at most I won't be able to become the City God, but I can still absorb the incense. But it's different for you. You will be truly shattered to pieces!

As the saying goes, it is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. As long as you hand over the City God Seal to me, I will give you a way out. Then you can become a powerful ghost. How about it?" Lu Pan said eloquently.

It's true, before, the City God of Ju County really wanted to detonate the City God Seal, but now after hearing what Lu Pan said, he felt that it would be a bit unfair for him to die like this. Moreover, he practiced both the ghost way and the divine way. Without the City God Seal, at most he would lose the divine way. He could still practice the ghost way. With his cultivation level not as good as the Ghost King, he was better than many ghosts and monsters. He could still make a living in the world of the living.

Soon, he made up his mind and said through gritted teeth: "Lu Pan, do you keep your word? I hand over the City God Seal to you, and you will let me go?"

Seeing that there was hope, Lu Pan quickly assured, "Don't worry, I can swear a humanitarian oath. If I, Lu Pan, don't let you leave safely after I get the City God's seal, I will be struck by five thunders and die!"

With a roar from heaven and earth, the City God of Ju County knew that the oath had been fulfilled. The oaths in this world are not made randomly, but will be fulfilled, especially the oath of humanity. Because the human race is the protagonist of this world, once the oath is violated, the entire human race will be affected by the mysterious influence and come here to kill those who violated the oath!

The City God of Ju County did not say anything else, but took out a golden seal, which was the treasure that countless people, monsters, and ghosts dreamed of: the City God's Seal!

He threw the City God's seal to Lu Pan. When Lu Pan took it, the City God of Ju County had already run away. Only his voice echoed in the air: "Lu Pan, just wait. You will not have a good end!"

Clenching the City God Seal in his hand, Lu Pan sneered, "No good end? Do you mean the punishment from the higher-ups? The situation in the underworld is tense right now, the gods are already busy with their own affairs, and they need people right now, so why would they punish me? What's more, I have already secretly surrendered to the Red-haired Ghost King, it's not that easy to touch me!"

After saying that, Lu Pan went straight back to the City God Temple. As soon as he entered, he found Zhu Erdan and several others hiding in the dark. He did not show up directly, but whispered a few words to Zhu Erdan. Upon hearing this, Zhu Erdan was overjoyed: I didn't expect that Brother Lu really succeeded. In this case, won't I, Zhu Erdan, be able to walk around Ju County with my own way in the future?

By the way, Brother Lu also gave me a task, asking me to customize a new statue of the City God for him. I must do this task seriously!

Only after Zhu Erdan and his men left did Lu Pan emerge from the void. Without even glancing at the smashed statue on the ground, he stared at the original location of the City God's statue and said with excitement, "I have been planning for so long, and it has finally worked. Once the statue is in place, I will be able to travel back and forth between the Yin and Yang worlds. With the City God's seal, I can also recruit Yin soldiers, so that I can truly protect myself!"

Yes, as a county judge, Lu Pan could not travel back and forth between the Yin and Yang worlds on his own. He could only conduct trials in the City God’s domain, and then the City God would make the final decision and send all the ghosts to the underworld. As for how those wandering ghosts would be dealt with in the underworld, that was the business of the immortals and gods in the underworld!

The whole process is a bit like the first and second instance in modern society. This is done to prevent false and wrongful convictions.

Of course, this was under the condition that the Yin and Yang worlds were stable. Now, both the Yin and Yang worlds are in chaos, so the trials are naturally not as rigorous as before. Moreover, many immortals and gods have done many inhumane things by relying on the power in their hands.

On the other side, the escaped City God was targeted not long after he left the city. The target was none other than Chen Mo.
