Chapter 81 Tiger Head Jade Pendant
"The land god is clearly in the land temple, so how could he disappear?" Ningxiang looked at me in confusion.
"Forget it, never mind. The most important thing is that we are together. Let the underworld worry about these things." I waved my hand, stood up, and put on my clothes.
"Ni Ge, how are you going to deal with those roaming evil spirits?" Ningxiang suddenly asked.
"How else can we place them? These evil spirits still don't think they are in the wrong. And this is also a frying pan hell. Forget it, we will be back soon. I don't want to get involved in these things."
Ningxiang frowned slightly and said with a bit of sadness: "In fact, many people shouldn't come here. I can't bear to see them stay. Can you take them with you?"
My heart skipped a beat! What do you mean by taking them with you? Ningxiang is at the level of a ghost king, is there no way for her to leave?
"Don't Ningxiang have a smuggling route? Can't they go back? "
Ningxiang smiled bitterly and said, "In fact, this road can only be used for entry but not exit. The Great Sheng Ghost King controls the opening of the entire path. Even I can't get out. Unless I get the tiger-head jade pendant that controls the path."
Another jade pendant! Bai Wuchang said that the jade pendant was his ancestral heirloom. But it turned out to be such a magic weapon. Bai Wuchang was so shameless that he said it was a simple task for an intern.
However, according to my original idea, it seems that leaving through the smuggling route is not feasible. The only way is to get the tiger-head jade pendant.
If that's the case, then the 10,000 evil spirits I brought with me are really useful. The only person I'm worried about is Ningxiang. Ningxiang is the most critical and important person in the whole plan.
"Ningxiang, how strong is the Great Sheng Ghost King? How likely are you to win against him?" I sighed. I originally thought that I didn't need to get involved in all this, but now it seems that I have fallen into an invisible net when I first went to the underworld.
Ningxiang shook her head and said, "I can't see through the strength of the Great Sheng Ghost King. I am no match for him."
"Let's go, it's okay, we can definitely get away." I smiled and raised my right hand. The pattern of the pentagram array appeared in front of Ningxiang. Ningxiang's straightforwardness made me give up the plan of robbing by force and think about my other identity instead.
"Spy from the underworld!" Ningxiang opened her mouth in surprise.
I looked at Ningxiang in confusion: "Spy! Isn't he a ghost messenger?"
Ningxiang gave me a complicated look and said, "I don't know how you got this identity, but you can't go out. If the Great Sheng Ghost King sees you, he will definitely kill you. In the past half month, many spies have sneaked in through smuggling channels, but they were discovered and killed before they even left the teleportation array."
"It seems that the Great Sheng Ghost King must know how to identify the identity of the spy. Things are going to be troublesome."
As I spoke, I took out the bracelet and soon contacted Bai Wuchang.
"Oh! Who is it? Don't you know that the Second Master is busy?"
I almost cursed at him, but thinking about the current situation, I held back.
"Mr. Bai, you are so leisurely!" I tried to slow down my tone while holding back my anger. No wonder this guy threw it. The emotional teleportation array is not working at all.
"Uh, you're Ni Ge! Oh! You're still alive!"
"Gojo, do you want it, old man Bai?"
"Wait a minute! Haha, oh my, Ni Ge really is the son of destiny! I knew you could do it. Where are you? I'll get the jade pendant to give you points. Master Bai is not a stingy person. It's over!"
I heard the chaotic noise over there. No matter how dumb I am, I know that Mr. Bai is playing mahjong. What's even more annoying is that from the tone of Bai Wuchang, it seems that he has no hope for me at all. This is a mission that is a life-or-death mission. I was really fooled by this old bastard. I don't think I would fall so badly if I did it myself!
With a gloomy face, I said unhappily: "Second Master Bai, I am trapped here now. Do you have any other way to leave except the jade pendant?"
"That! Bang! I really have no other options. I can only pick you up outside after I get the jade pendant from your place. You know, if I want to take you out, I must be able to sense you. The jade pendant is my ancestral heirloom, and without it I can't sense you!"
Hearing this, I have cut off the connection. The old fox also has his tail exposed. It seems that there is only one way to leave here, that is to get the jade pendant of the loud ghost king. The old fox wants to get it so much, this jade pendant is definitely not simple, it is probably not as simple as a magic weapon.
As for how to get it, we have to find a way from Shi Qian.
Ningxiang ordered the ghost soldiers to bring Shi Qian over quickly.
"Oh, congratulations, a short separation is better than a new marriage!" Shi Qian sat beside me and looked at me with a smile as soon as he came in. His eyes immediately turned into slits.
Ningxiang and I couldn't help but blush at the same time. But this is not the time for romance. When I knew that the Great Sheng Ghost King was killing the underworld spies, I knew that I couldn't stay here any longer.
"Okay, Shi Qian, there is only one way for us to leave here now, and that is the tiger-head jade pendant of the Great Sheng Ghost King. Tell me how you can get close to him and take the jade pendant."
Shi Qian scratched his head and said in embarrassment: "This is not easy. The Great Sheng Ghost King will not come out alone every time. Besides, I don't even have the chance to get close to him. Given his strength, I'm afraid I won't survive even if I force myself to get close to him."
Yes, the most difficult thing is how to approach the Great Sheng Ghost King. But is the Great Sheng Ghost King so easy to approach?
Ningxiang frowned and suddenly said, "Maybe it's not that difficult. The day after tomorrow is the annual Ghost King Ascension Festival. Every time the Ghost King comes out, he will have some brief contact with ordinary ghosts. If Shi Qian can sneak in at that time, maybe he will have a chance."
The Ghost King Ascension Day is a festival set according to the day when the Great Sheng Ghost King escaped from the torture of the oil pan and was promoted to the Ghost King. This Great Sheng Ghost King is also extremely narcissistic. He is obviously a ghost, but he wants to compare himself to the gods in heaven.
As for the tiger-head jade pendant, after Ningxiang's introduction, I finally had a certain understanding of it. To be exact, this tiger-head jade pendant is equivalent to a divine artifact. It has existed since the day the Oil Pot Hell appeared. Not only the Oil Pot Hell has it, but the other seventeen layers also have the same object. It's just that the shapes are different.
Originally, this jade pendant belonged to the prison master. But the prison master was unlucky. He happened to come to inspect when the ghost king was promoted. He was caught by the ghost king and killed on the spot. This was also the main reason why the ghost king of Dasheng was able to quickly control the oil pan hell.
The importance of the jade pendant is self-evident, it is like a tiger's butt. Unfortunately, our plan is based on this jade pendant.
The initial plan for this operation is to have five people. Me, Ningxiang, Shiqian, and the two little ghosts. Of course, these are the only five people I can trust.
The Ghost King Festival arrived as scheduled. All the major cities began to prepare for the Ghost King Festival.
As the new Ghost King, Ningxiang took us directly to Ghost King City the next day. We settled in a mansion in Ghost King City. Of course, these were specially prepared by the Ghost King for show.
Ghost King City was even more lively. As the main executor of this operation, Shi Qian took Ningxiang's Ghost King Order and started to wander around the Ascension Platform of Ghost King City early to check the terrain. The two little ghosts were designated by the Great Sheng Ghost King as his golden boy and jade girl because of their cuteness. Ningxiang was responsible for confusing the audience at critical moments.
This is what I am most worried about. Waiting for news at home!
The streets were already filled with ghosts. Shi Qian hid under the ascension platform, waiting carefully. In his hand he held a bunch of hell-specific flowers.
This flower is loved by the ghosts of hell. But living people cannot accept it. Because this flower absorbs the resentment of hell for a long time and becomes extremely smelly. However, hell is a barren place. Even this flower can only be enjoyed by nobles.
Shi Qian spent almost all the money in his backpack. He was standing on a cart full of ghost flowers. The ghosts beside him also held a ghost flower in their hands and stood respectfully on both sides. They were undoubtedly hired by Shi Qian to work.
Shi Qian's actions immediately stood out from the crowd below the Ascension Platform. Even the Ghost King on the Ascension Platform couldn't help but look over.
"Long live the king! May the king live forever! May the king enjoy eternal bliss!" Shi Qian had been keeping an eye on the Ascension Platform. When he saw that the Ghost King of Dasheng had looked at this place, he acted like a fanatical fan.
"Well, that's right. Does anyone know this person?" The Ghost King of Dasheng nodded with a smile and asked the person next to him in a pretentious tone.
The ghost kings beside him were all staring at each other in astonishment. Where did this person come from? I haven't seen such a fanatical fan in so many years!
"Your Majesty, this man seems to be very loyal to you. If you like him, it would be nice to keep him by your side."
A ghost who spoke in a sarcastic tone beside the loud ghost king said with a charming smile.
"Well, it can be considered, but we still need to investigate it more thoroughly." The Ghost King of Dasheng nodded, appearing to be very pleased.
Ningxiang suddenly stepped forward and said, "Thank you for your love, Your Majesty. This man is a messenger under my command. He is usually quite clever. I just let him help Your Majesty during this festival."
"Oh, the Ghost King Tongtian is thoughtful. But don't be so blatant with your oil pan punishment." The Ghost King lost interest when he saw that it was Ningxiang who arranged it. It was obvious that Ningxiang was not very popular in the heart of the Ghost King Dasheng.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. What I did before was too radical. It was only for the sake of power. I am alone and have no one to rely on, so naturally I have to think more about my own safety." Ningxiang said pitifully.
"Hahaha, Tongtian, what do you think about the marriage with me?" Ghost King Tongtian looked at Ningxiang without hiding his desire.
