The Wife of a Ghost - C307
I pretended that I didn’t understand what she meant and retreated. Before she could turn around, he pulled me back.
“Don’t leave so soon. I still have something to say.”
You didn’t finish your sentence, but I really don’t want to talk to anyone right now. “General, please forgive me. I still have matters to attend to, so I can’t delay any longer.”
Behind me, I only faintly said, “Truly, there’s someone that wants to talk to me and recall my past. The matters of more than a thousand years ago, I’ve always kept it in my heart, and it’s hard to tell who I’m talking to. Didn’t I just see that you were very interested in the matters of the past?”
I stopped, knowing that he was trying to lure me back with it. I should keep walking, and it would be best if I could get out of this mess in the shortest possible time, but I couldn’t move a single step.
She patted my shoulder, turned me around, and pinched my face, saying, “A newbie is still a newbie, I really don’t know how to hide my emotions. Since you’re interested, come over here and tell me about it, it’s not like it’s a secret.”
No, secret? But since it’s not a secret, why didn’t anyone tell me before, why didn’t anyone show it?
After all, it was a thousand years ago, and the only thing I know is that the old bones of the underworld are very cunning. They would be in trouble if I wasn’t careful, and they wouldn’t even bother to talk about it,” she said, leaning against the tree. “Of course, if it wasn’t for the fact that I was angry, I wouldn’t be able to talk about it.” As for why the rest of us didn’t say anything, it’s very simple, people of the Underworld only need to enter the cycle of reincarnation once every five hundred years. As for why the others don’t say anything, it’s very simple, people of the Underworld only need to enter the cycle of reincarnation once every five hundred years. “Hey, don’t just stand there. It’s easy to be spotted by the patrol. Come here.
It was as if I had heard the magic, heard the summons of the Bridge Lady coming up beside him and sitting down with him.
Qiao Ji smiled. She casually picked up a stalk of grass and hung it by her mouth. With both hands behind her head, she gazed at the sky, as if she was recalling something.
“That incident really was a sensation back then.”
There were many things that Zisang Ming did that did not cause a sensation.
“Hey, you certainly didn’t expect this. In order to get the favor of that war god, His Highness Lunar Scourge even condescended to turn himself into a prisoner. After living in that person’s house for a long time, he used all sorts of methods to capture his heart. At that time, the so-called Man Luo or Mu Xuannan were all little monsters that had yet to finish cultivating in human form.
I forced myself to calm down and put on an expression as if I was listening to someone else’s story. I smiled along with Qiao Ji and coordinated with her, saying, “That’s right. There’s no comparison at all. Someone who can get His Highness’s favor must definitely be an extraordinary person.” Oh yeah, they always said that man was a War God, and I was once a War God as well, but I never heard that there were other War Gods in Six Realms. Also, there was another strange thing, I seem to only remember that I had the title of War God, but why is there no specific memories of that time at all?
It was as if a memory had been cut in the middle, and then there was the scene of my first reincarnation. Sigh, why does my head start aching just thinking about this!?
I squeezed my temples for a long moment before I recovered, but the girl was still lost in his memories.
“At that time, I did not go to the dead city, and I was also a little monster who had just finished cultivating in a human form. After leaving the domain of the Divine Beasts, I went out to the outside world to explore, and I just happened to meet that unparalleled war. The two Realms suffered heavy casualties, and the forces of the Underworld were almost annihilated under the attack of the War God, the Herba Euphorbiae had led his army to meet the enemy many times, but it was like they met a curse.
While talking, Qiao Ji suddenly stopped talking as she looked at the sky. I didn’t hear what happened afterwards, nor did I hear the story between Zisang Ming and the War God.
“Later on, it was simple, when the young Lord Zisang Ming attacked and welcomed the enemy, the result was magical. In just a few rounds, he was able to tie with the war god, but, the Underworld Army was still defeated by the enemy’s attack, and on the battlefield, it was a helpless matter. The commander was very strong, but the soldiers under him were not strong enough to support the enemy, so it ended in a crushing defeat.”
“Oh yeah, His Highness took off the mask of the other wargod and found out that the other person was a female general during that battle.”
Zisang Ming saw the other party’s true appearance. From then on, he didn’t have time to think about anything else and only focused on studying how to fight the other party, regardless of how many people he had brought along or how he ended up losing, he had to rely on his own strength to defeat the other party’s army, forcing the War God to personally leave the house.
After repeating this several times, the Underworld really didn’t have the manpower to follow Zisang Ming to take another look at the beauty again. Herba Euphorbiae had decided to withdraw his troops, and on the night that Zisang Ming received the news of withdrawing, the princess sent him, who remembered everything, to her captive carriage.
“You said this isn’t considered a good story!” Qiao Qiao was so excited that her hands and feet were practically dancing. Her eyes were filled with stars, as if she had once again returned to that battlefield and saw that romantic and heroic youth.
In my eyes, all of this was just a story of his and someone else’s past, a beautiful and heart-wrenching love story.
“His Highness followed this War God to another world, and stayed there for over a hundred years. At that time, there were people who said that Zisang Ming would stay there with the beauty and not return, then there were people who said that the underworld world would be destroyed, and there were also people who said that after the war god left, his soul disappeared and his head fell to the ground. In short, during that period of time, there were all sorts of conjectures about His Highness.”
But now, Zisang Ming was standing perfectly fine on this battlefield, which meant that those guesses from before were only guesses, and not real.
Qiao Ji paused, looked outside at the large tent that was filled with groups of people, and the orderly army. His voice suddenly grew heavy, and he said, “It’s also not bad that Your Highness Zisang Ming, Ren Ming world, was surrounded by all sorts of suspicions and prepared for Your Highness’ ceremony. He actually sent a secret letter to the Herba Euphorbiae, requesting the Herba Euphorbiae to bring seven thousand Underworld King’s personal soldiers to the border of the Underworld to wait for him, it’s only needed to wait ten days. He said he was coming back, and he didn’t come back empty-handed. ”
Herba Euphorbiae was naturally very happy that Zisang Ming did not die. When he felt happy, he stopped his preparations for the ceremony and brought the seven thousand personal guards of the King of Hell to the border region overnight. Then, on the tenth day after their arrival, Zisang Ming punctually appeared.
I don’t know when, but I was completely immersed in this story, knowing that the protagonist was the father of my child, the man who might not be a husband to me in the future, but I couldn’t say that I was sad.
Perhaps, he had given up. Or perhaps, in order to have someone who came first and then came after him, he had to compromise?
But was I really willing?
I didn’t even want to let go of the reason why my fists were clenched so tightly. A stone was in my palm. I held it too tightly. The stone cut through my palm and blood flowed out from between my fingers. It was strange, but it actually didn’t hurt.
“Hey, don’t take out any of the things I’ve told you today. I’m just angry, satisfied, and seeing that you’re quivering, I’ll tell you this, if this matter were to be revealed by you, it’ll be known by Her Highness Zisang Ming’s current wife. She’ll have a good time with you, the Empress won’t be a pushover, I remember that time, no, it wasn’t just years ago. Right now, he was also a wargod! Oh yeah, did you say that the reason why Your Highness Zisang Ming took a liking to the Empress was because she also had the identity of a War God? “He really is an infatuated person.”
That’s right, he really is an infatuated person. If someone hadn’t told me today, I wouldn’t have known that my man had such a deeply hidden side to him.
However, there is one thing that I don’t understand. Since Zisang Ming has already married this War God, even if many people in this flourishing Underworld do not know, then why have I not seen this — Where’s Big Sister?
Qiao Ji looked at the patrolling soldiers outside the forest again and pouted. “The guards are quite strict. As expected of soldiers brought by the Taotie.”
You want to take this opportunity to praise the Taotie, to let me bring a message over to resolve this feud? I will definitely give you my intentions, but before that, I want to resolve this mystery in my heart. Why has that Empress who entered the Underworld a thousand years ago never appeared. Or could it be that there was no Zisang Ming in her heart, and there was a hidden reason behind her marrying him back then?
Bridget glanced at me and sneered. “Why haven’t I seen it before? You want to know, I want to know too, the entire Underworld knows about that grand ceremony, but only His Highness Zisang Ming is known to the people of the War God. After the War God was married into the Underworld, he had locked himself in his own palace in the Great Nether King Palace and never stepped foot out of his own bedroom. If not for the occasional conversation that came from inside the wall, people would probably think that His Highness had married a soulless body.
Before she finished speaking, Tao Tie walked out of the camp towards the woods. Qiao Ji’s expression changed slightly, and waved her hand at me, saying: “Alright, that’s enough, the person who ruined the mood is here, I have to go. Hey, don’t tell him that you met me here, I don’t want to talk to him yet.”
