Chapter 3 The Banshee and the Sari
"I have two bodies?"
Realizing this, Du Bai's heart suddenly jumped and he felt a sense of excitement.
But immediately, he suppressed the inappropriate excitement and began to think about the identity of this body to play better.
"The so-called Ghost King..." he murmured to himself, "There are really ghosts in this world?"
After having two bodies at the same time, this kind of thing that is beyond imagination seems to be something unacceptable.
But equally bad, this body did not leave him any useful memory information, and he had to explore everything himself.
He straightened his body and wanted to get up, but as a burst of tear-like pain came, his strong subconscious told him that it would be better not to move around!
"This body is injured...and it's very serious..."
Du Bai quickly realized this.
No wonder, otherwise he would not have given him a chance to occupy the nest, just as the scholar gave him a chance to die, and I think the same is true for this body.
But this made him secretly amazed at the strength of his body, and even if he was dying, he still had the sense of power that could break the world with one punch.
But in the same way, he must be more cautious. Those who can beat such a powerful ghost king to the verge of death must not be Hao Yiyu's character, even here is full of crises.
Just as he was thinking, a call that seemed charmingly called out of the hall suddenly came from outside the hall: "Wang, all the bald donkeys who were brave enough to attack our ghost town have retreated, and even the living Buddha left because of your strength. Although the dead people sat in place, their relics were still left, which must be of some benefit to your injuries..."
"Do you need your subordinates to bring it in for you?"
The voice was charming and bone-aberding, but at this moment I could hear a little worried, not as if I had any false intentions.
"I still need to recover from my injuries now. Those monks don't care about it for now. You just need to send the relics in."
Du Bai was startled by his voice when he spoke.
It was heavy and hoarse, as if a huge rock was slowly rubbing, but it contained a mysterious majesty, which made the listener unable to help but obey its orders. This seemed to be the power of this body and body, and no one could shake it.
He had no impression of what the other party said about bald donkey, living Buddha, etc., and he was inevitably a little weak. If he said a few more words, he would easily notice something wrong. It is hard to say whether he would take advantage of his injury and lose power.
He knew that many Erwuzi had to be careful. The banshee outside didn't know what her nature was and should not be trusted easily.
It’s better to wait until you recover from your injury and recover from a certain level of strength before contacting slowly.
After saying that, he slowly stretched out his hand as if he felt something. Then a heavy palace gate slowly opened up a gap, and a slender and tender little hand flashed by, and more than ten golden beads, large or small, quickly flew into his palm.
The door closed in response.
"Is this the relics? It's a little different from the stones of the monk in my impression..."
His hand, which was like a dragon's claw, held the relics and looked at them slightly, and saw that it was as gentle as jade and bright as gold. The translucent surface exuded a layer of light of Buddha nature.
If this light is used to ordinary people, it may make them calm and feel like spring breeze. If worn with you for a long time, you can even avoid all diseases and be kind in your heart.
But for him, it was like tempting food exuding an irresistible aroma!
I wish I could swallow it in one bite.
"To recover from injuries..."
He tried hard to restrain the strange feeling in his heart and stuffed the relics into his mouth, like eating sugar beans, melting in his mouth. Soon, a warm current flowed down his throat, and there was a slight abnormal movement in his body, and the injury was obviously tending to heal gradually.
At this moment, he suddenly felt something. He raised his head suddenly and saw that behind him who had not paid attention to it, were several huge golden Buddha statues on the same height as the hall.
But now the light on their surface has dimmed, and it has even been stained with layers of obscure cracks. At this time, lines of blood and tears slowly flowed down the facial features of the Buddha statues, making their supposedly kind smile look extremely gloomy and terrifying!
************
In the quiet and dim study, a light yellow flame floated on the core line extending from the oil surface of the slightly turbid candlestick, which was pounding slightly at high and low, and occasionally one or two crisp "crackling" sounds burst out from time to time.
Suddenly, a sound of footsteps came from far and near outside the door. A gentle knock on the door shortly after stopping at the door, as if he was worried about disturbing the people inside to study.
"Son-in-law... the eldest lady is back, let you go to the hall."
A little maid called out timidly.
The scholar who was sleeping soundly leaning against the chair trembled slightly and finally opened slowly. After a little confused, he quickly adapted to his identity change.
"I understand." Du Bai echoed.
But probably because of the influence of another body, the sound made at this time actually had a bit of indescribable majesty.
What he didn't know was that the little maid outside was also shocked. After a while, she covered her chest with lingering fear, with a little puzzled look on her face.
"Strange... Why did the son-in-law feel like he was too master when he spoke just now? His majesty was too terrifying and he almost couldn't breathe."
But just as she was about to walk back, she heard a slightly hesitant voice from the study: "You... wait first, let's go there together."
Although the maid was puzzled, her habitual obedience made her respond and waited outside the door obediently.
Du Bai hasn't been to that hall yet, and it would be embarrassing if he gets lost for a while. It would be the best for this maid to lead the way.
In the study, Du Bai, who returned to this sick body, was quite uncomfortable, but the Ghost King's body was still seriously injured and had not healed. Now he was in a stage similar to resting and dormant, and he could not do more activities.
I put the book in my hand back on the bookshelf, turned off the light, opened the door, and saw a beautiful girl standing outside the door with only her chest. Although I had been waiting for a long time, she had no dissatisfaction on her face.
"Let's go." Du Bai didn't look much, but just said lightly.
Accompanied by the light silver moonlight, following the little maid in the corridor, Du Bai finally walked to the hall after turning around, and it was brightly lit.
There were already many people sitting here, and Du Bai didn't know any of the mothers except the afternoon. However, the most conspicuous woman sitting on the main seat made him immediately confirm the protagonist tonight.
She should be her own wife, Su Wanmiao, the current ruler of the Su family.
The woman had delicate facial features and beautiful appearance. Without any makeup, Du Bai couldn't help but be amazed for a moment. She was wearing a light white long skirt, probably to prevent the cool breeze of the summer night, and had a bit of elegant and gentle temperament. Although she was still tired at this time, she was still energetic and pretended to be majestic aura that was inconsistent with her age.
Indeed, since most of the business of Mr. Su's family was entrusted to her to take charge of her, if she had never grown up, she would probably not be convinced by her subordinates.
“Good luck…”
He himself did not have much expectations for the appearance of the eldest lady of the Su family, but now he seems quite amazing.
Du Bai was not as resistant to the identity of a son-in-law as men of this era. Anyway, he didn't care about those false names without relatives or reasons. On the contrary, he had been on earth for more than 20 years and suddenly had a stunning wife, which felt pretty good.
