Chapter 789: Taishan Chant
The princess' legs went weak and she tried to calm herself down to deal with Gong Mengbi, but she could not control the fear in her heart and could hardly control herself.
“My lord, since she is unwilling to hand over the charm beads and fox fur, why not use her heart and liver and human skin instead.” The Skull God stepped out from Gong Mengbi’s side. The white skull with green eyes looked at the princess and laughed horribly: “Hahaha, I will do the surgery for you, my lord.”
"Ah——" The princess's inner defenses were finally broken down, and she tumbled and crawled towards the inner court.
"Hahaha--"
The Skull God, wearing empty clothes and with smoke as its body, floated in the air and slowly approached the princess.
The princess was wealthy and noble, but her body was stained with blood, her hairpins and skirt were disheveled, and she looked panic-stricken. While running, she repeatedly tripped over the hem of her skirt.
The Skull God simply called out in a high and low ghost voice: "My Lady, My Lady, My Lady."
The constant stimulation of the princess's mind almost brought her to the point of collapse.
"Walk slower, let me see where to cut so that I can peel off your skin completely."
The princess rolled and crawled into the main hall, picked up the fox fur and charm beads on the table, rushed out of the door to avoid the Skull God, fell to the ground, raised her hands to Gong Mengbi, trembling, not daring to raise her head, and said: "The charm beads are here! The fox fur is here!"
The princess lowered her head and looked at the ground, her eyes had long lost focus.
"What a bummer."
She heard the skull's unhappy sneer, as if it was disappointed that it could not peel off her skin and dig out her heart.
She was trembling all over, and felt as if someone was standing in front of her. Then her hands lightened, and the fox fur and charm beads were taken away.
She dared not move, and could hear the night wind blowing quietly. In the huge courtyard, there was nothing but the sound of gushing springs and flowing wind.
The scary fox demon seemed to have left.
She finally relaxed, her whole body limp, feeling confused as to why this happened.
She forced herself to sit up slowly, her hair falling down, looking disheveled.
She looked through the scattered hair and saw a skull with scary blue light in its eye sockets right in front of her, grinning at her grimly, "My Lord!"
The princess was so shocked that her eyes rolled back and she fell to the ground, already fainting.
The Skull God felt itchy in his heart. Looking at the luxurious County Princess's Mansion, he always wanted to do something, but Gong Mengbi had already walked out of the door. He did not dare to make Gong Mengbi unhappy at this time, so he could only chase after him with regret.
The thick smoke retreated from the princess's mansion, as if time had turned back, and gathered into the boxes again.
The five ghosts cleared the way, the black fox pulled the box, and Gong Mengbi and others walked out of the county lady's mansion in a hurry, seemingly slowly.
The lamps that were emitting green flames turned back to their bright yellow color and were brightly lit, as if nothing had happened.
The Skull God followed and asked, "My Lord, are you going to let them go just like that?"
"Who?"
"Junjun, Cheng family."
"The County Lady's Mansion is finished. The County Lady teamed up with that ghost fairy to deal with me. She was tricked into performing a blood sacrifice curse. The fate of her County Lady's Mansion and the fate of the Human King on her body were all sacrificed through the Human King's bloodline. From now on, she will definitely be haunted by bad karma and continuous bad luck. If I kill them, it will be a bargain for them."
"Blood sacrifice spell... that lord?"
"It's harmless to keep the royal curse."
The Skull God admired him. He had many evil thoughts towards Gong Mengbi before, but after the gap between them became bigger and bigger, all his evil thoughts became delusions. Just like now, the world is still the world of Daqian. With the blood curse of the royal family on his body, it is easy to provoke the backlash of the dynasty. For the fox who has formed a bond and practiced cultivation, it is like cutting off an arm.
If it happened to the Skull God, he would be hunted down and killed by the Ten Directions Gods as soon as he left the house. But in Gong Mengbi's eyes, it didn't seem to be a big deal.
"What about the Cheng family?" asked the Skull God.
Gong Mengbi glanced at him and said, "I'm about to set off to chase that ghost fairy. You stay here and wait for me to come back."
The Skull God opened his mouth and let out a silent laugh, with evil thoughts in his eyes. He bowed to Gong Mengbi, then took a step back and followed Fu Xin.
Gong Mengbi suddenly looked up at the sky, and the figure of the night-wandering god appeared.
In Zhongli King's City, King Zhongli, who was observing Gong Mengbi through a magic mirror, froze. It seemed that he was looking at Gong Mengbi through the magic mirror and through Youshen's eyes.
King Zhongli coughed dryly and said, "Excuse me."
The night wandering god bowed to Gong Mengbi and disappeared into the night sky.
They walked from Haozhou City into the Haozhou Ghost Market, and then came out of the city gate. The little ghosts guarding the city still remembered them and said goodbye with a smile: "Sir, the Haozhou Ghost Market will be held in a few days. It will be the busiest then. Welcome to come again."
Little did they know that before leaving, Gong Mengbi showed King Zhongli that people could come and go as they pleased, which was giving the owner of the ghost market a headache.
After leaving Haozhou City and finding a place with beautiful scenery, Black Fox walked out from Gong Mengbi's shadow, pulling the box.
Gong Mengbi stroked the fox fur and said, "Come out, everyone."
Dozens of green eyes lit up in the box. Gong Mengbi covered the box with a fox fur coat. Fox corpses covered in blood came out from under the fur coat and fell to the ground. Then they turned back into fox corpses with intact fur and lay quietly on the ground, as if they were asleep.
When the last fox corpse came out, the fox fur also disappeared.
"How high is Mount Tai, so high that it reaches the heavens. The top is so high that it is far away, and the clouds are thick and dark. There is a pavilion in Liangfu and a pavilion in Haoli. The dark road attracts thousands of ghosts, and the shrine gathers hundreds of spirits. I went to Qingqiu and invited him to chant for Mount Tai."
"Go rest, go rest."
Gong Mengbi calmed his mind and chanted the names of the Goddess of Mount Tai and the Lord of Mount Tai, using the bright moon to light the way and open the door to Haoli.
The fox corpse turned into essence and dissipated like white sand with rainbow light, holding up the charm pearl, like a dragon playing with the pearl, passing through the gate of Haoli and disappearing into the forest.
Gong Mengbi looked through the ghost gate in Haoli and saw the faces of the fox ghosts gradually becoming clearer. They bowed down to him from afar, and he felt pity in his heart.
"Go."
The Haoli Gate disappeared into the night. Gong Mengbi looked up at the sky. The night wind was howling, carrying with it the wet vapor from the Huai River, making it impossible for people to open their eyes.
Everyone around him was silent, and even the Skull God was moved by the scene.
Before long, Gong Mengbi had calmed down and saw the night-wandering god of Haozhou flying closer again.
But this time he did not peek secretly, but bowed respectfully and said: "Fairy, my king asked me to bring you a message."
Gong Mengbi looked at the wandering god, and the wandering god said, "The ghost fairy went to Beihai County."
Gong Mengbi laughed and said, "Thank King Zhongli for me."
The wandering god bowed and disappeared in the wind.
Gong Mengbi looked at the Skull God and said, "I will take the five ghosts to chase the ghost fairy. You and Fu Xin will stay in Haozhou and wait for us to come back."
The Skull God bowed and said, "I understand."
