Build the Traveler Alliance from scratch

The current royal family? !

Hearing the female ghost's shocked words, Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing couldn't help but sneer.

Nowadays, monsters are rampant in the land of China, ghosts are everywhere, and it is a chaotic scene. Behind it must be the help of the faint king and the royal family.

Are this group of misbehaving insects worthy of being compared with my Majesty?

Zhao Lihe ignored the shocked words of the woman in the white dress and just asked lightly: "What's your name?"

The woman in the white dress composed herself, bowed timidly, and said softly: "I have incomplete memories during my lifetime, and no longer know the past. For the ghost queen, my grandma gave me a fancy name, and she called me Xiao green……"

"Xiaoqing?" Zhao Lihe was a little surprised, "Aren't you Nie Xiaoqian?"

"...Nie Xiaoqian?"

Xiao Qing was startled for a moment when he heard this, then shook his head and said, "I've never heard of it."

Zhao Lihe frowned and said, "None of your sisters are named Nie Xiaoqian?"

Xiao Qing thought about it carefully, shook her head and said, "Grandma, there are fifteen or sixteen sisters in total. I know them all. None of them are named Nie Xiaoqian."

...This is really strange. There is no Qian in A Chinese Ghost Story, right?

The three brothers Shen Lian looked at each other and seemed a little surprised.

Miss Xiaoqing quietly looked at the expressions of Zhao Lihe and others, and saw that they seemed to be very concerned about this Xiaoqian. She thought that this news might be related to her life and death, so she racked her brains to recall the relevant information.

"Yes!"

Xiao Qing's eyes suddenly lit up and he said quickly: "Sir, when it comes to people named Nie, I have some clues."

Zhao Lihe raised his eyebrows and said with interest: "You said."

Xiao Qing nodded repeatedly and said softly: "A few years ago, a group of carriages and horses passed by here and rested for a night at Lanruo Temple. Grandma saw that the convoy was full of vigorous warrior guards. On a whim, she sent us sisters to the convoy. I am tempted and want to seduce a few new blood eaters."

"But before our sisters could enter the temple, they were injured by the yellow paper talismans attached to the pillars at the entrance of the temple, and had to retreat injured."

"Until then, we sisters didn't know that in addition to the accompanying guards, there was also a Maoshan Taoist priest with great magical power!"

"Perhaps the act of quietly entering the temple that night revealed his whereabouts. The next day, the Maoshan Taoist priest came to the forest alone and threatened to make a three-chapter agreement with my grandma."

"He said that he would not take action against us sisters, but grandma is not allowed to miss the team he is in."

"Grandma was afraid of his disciple, so she agreed. I was beside grandma at the time and heard the conversation between them clearly. The Maoshan Taoist priest's name for the leader of the convoy seemed to be Master Nie!"

Master Nie...

Zhao Lihe nodded thoughtfully.

If he remembered correctly, Nie Xiaoqian seemed to have come from a family of officials, but when she passed by this place with her old father, she was unfortunately killed by a strongman and her body was buried under an ancient tree.

The tree demon grandma took control of Nie Xiaoqian's bones and forced her to become her maid. This is how the story of A Chinese Ghost Story begins.

If what Miss Xiaoqing said is true, then the Nie Xiaoqian of this world is likely to escape the fate of being the number one in Lanruo Temple.

And the person who changed her destiny was most likely the Maoshan Taoist priest who dared to single-handedly make a three-part agreement with the tree demon grandma!

Interesting... Another time traveler with a master's heritage?

Zhao Lihe had a look of interest on his face, wondering if he should let Ye Chen come over.

After all, he is the disciple of Uncle Jiu, the orthodox successor of Maoshan, and can be regarded as the fellow disciple of this time traveler from another world.

While Zhao Lihe was thinking this, he confirmed softly: "Miss Xiaoqing, is everything you said true?"

Xiaoqing quickly raised three fingers and swore: "If you are deceived, my soul will be driven away and I will never be reincarnated!"

So cruel...

Zhao Lihe twitched the corner of his mouth, feeling as if I didn't say anything and you did it yourself.

Seeing the expressions on the faces of Zhao Lihe and others, Xiao Qing breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that his information was indeed useful.

Then, Xiao Qing secretly gritted his teeth, suddenly fell down on the ground, and said with a miserable face: "Sir, Xiao Qing has been controlled by her grandma since her death. She seduces men, absorbs people's yang, and harms people's lives. It's all because of others. I am forced and have no choice but to ask for your understanding!"

After saying that, Xiaoqing lowered his head sadly, his body trembling slightly, as if he was sobbing softly.

Zhao Lihe chuckled: "Why are you so cooperative? It turns out you want to get rid of the control of the tree demon!"

Xiao Qing's body lying on the ground stiffened slightly, then raised her head and said in a faint voice: "Sir, although Xiao Qing is a female ghost, if there is a chance to be reincarnated as a human being, who would want to be in this wilderness? , how about killing people by selling sex?"

"Besides..."

Having said this, Xiao Qing paused and gritted his teeth and said, "Grandma has a backer in the underworld, called the Black Mountain Old Demon. Some time ago, grandma has betrothed me to him."

"The reason why I work hard for my grandma is because I hope that one day she can give me my freedom and let me reincarnate."

"But if you marry the old demon from Montenegro, you will have no choice but to stay in the Netherworld forever, serving around you."

"I'm not willing to do this, so..."

Zhao Lihe chuckled and said, "So you want me to help you get rid of the control of the tree demon, right?"

Xiaoqing nodded repeatedly, looking hopeful.

Zhao Lihe thought for a moment, nodded and said: "I can save you, and even save your sisters, but you must first tell me where the thousand-year-old tree demon is."

Xiaoqing's body trembled, and she lay on the ground again, saying in a sad tone: "My lord, grandma controls my bones. I can tell you insignificant things, but I must not reveal grandma's secrets. Otherwise, Grandma will never let me go!"

"unless……"

Zhao Lihe chuckled and asked, "Unless what?"

Xiao Qing said quickly: "Unless you can find my bones first and let me get rid of my grandma's shackles..."

This is to let him pay first and then deliver the goods!

Zhao Lihe looked at the female ghost lying on the ground in front of him with interest.

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Lihe nodded and said, "Okay, tell me the location of your bones!"

"Thank you for saving me, sir!"

Xiaoqing's face suddenly beamed with joy, and she kowtowed repeatedly to express her gratitude.

Zhao Lihe waved his hand gently, and Ding Xian next to him immediately understood and used his telekinesis to help Xiao Qing, who was kowtowing, up.

Xiaoqing couldn't knock anymore, so she stood up nervously and told the location of her body.

Zhao Lihe noted the location, then covered it with a paper umbrella and put Xiaoqing inside again.

After putting away the paper umbrella, Zhao Lihe turned to look at the three brothers Lu Jianxing, Shen Lian and Ding Xian.

"What do you think?"

"Back to Your Majesty." Lu Jianxing cupped his hands and said, "In my humble opinion, what this woman said is half true and false. She wants to get rid of the control of the tree demon. It should be true, but those pitiful words cannot be fully believed."

"I think this woman must have seen the emperor's aura in you and guessed that you have a noble status, so she is so eager."

Zhao Lihe nodded slightly and agreed.

Although Xiaoqing is far from completely bad, she is not a good person with strong empathy like Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian. She is the kind of ordinary person who will change herself according to the general environment.

When you are a ghost, you suck people's yang and harm people's lives. This may not mean that you are proactive.

But if you are reincarnated as a human being and receive education, you can also become a good person based on universal values.

Being selfish is human nature and should not be criticized harshly.

Zhao Lihe said softly: "Axian, you stay here to protect Ning Caichen, Jianxing, and Shen Lian. You two leave with me and search for Miss Xiaoqing's body separately. If you find it, use the intercom to send a message. I'll be there immediately."

"yes!"

The three brothers respectfully accepted the order.

…

…

The next morning, the sky was bright in the mountains and fields.

Zhao Lihe was leaning on a tree trunk with his eyes closed to rest. Not far ahead, there were two brothers, Lu Jianxing and Shen Lian, who were digging the ground with hoes.

Originally, Zhao Lihe was planning to take part in it, but how could the two brothers dare to let him touch such rough work, so they could only 'accidentally' break off the third and final hoe, leaving Zhao Lihe 'forced' to do it beside him. Supervisor.

The reason why the ground was dug bit by bit with a hoe was mainly because Xiaoqing's bones had become an urn.

If you use your magical power to dig up the ground, there will inevitably be stones that break Xiaoqing's ashes.

In order to prevent Xiaoqing from becoming all over the ground, the two brothers could only suppress their strength and dig holes in the ground in the ordinary way.

But fortunately, they are full of energy and have amazing endurance. Just digging in the ground and digging graves is not even a warm-up for them.

In just half an hour, they plowed through the entire mass grave. There were countless corpses of various victims, as well as large and small urns, but Xiao Qing's urn was not found.

Finally, after digging up a dry corpse, Lu Jianxing sighed and guessed helplessly:

"Did the thousand-year-old tree demon already guess that Xiao Qing would betray him and move the urn in advance?"

"Probably not." Shen Lian frowned and said, "In the movie, the tree demon grandma didn't even touch Xiaoqian's ashes, so why would she target Xiaoqing - let's keep looking!"

After saying that, the two brothers raised their hoes again.

At this moment, the paper umbrella leaning against the tombstone suddenly trembled, as if to protest their contempt.

Shen Lian moved his hands and said in surprise: "Can she hear us?"

Lu Jianxing said without raising his head: "Of course I can't hear it."

Shen Lian frowned and said, "Then why is this paper umbrella moving?"

After the words fell, Lu Jianxing and Shen Lian's hand movements froze for a moment, and then they looked at each other and seemed to understand something.

Without hesitation, the two brothers quickly threw away the hoes in their hands and dug out the withered bones half buried in the soil in front of them. Sure enough, they found a black urn the size of a head under the withered bones.

"that's it!"

Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing looked happy and hurriedly dug out the urn. After confirming that there was no damage, they stood up from the large pit of the mass grave and said loudly to Zhao Lihe who was resting under the tree with his eyes closed:

"Your Majesty, we found it!"
