Quick Travel: Passing Through the Bloody World

Chapter 238 Becoming a Ghost in a Supernatural Story 21

This mission is special and involves many complicated matters. In order not to alert the enemy, the ghost hunters of the Investigation Bureau agreed with Cen Shenyi's statement after discussion.

After all, Cen Shenyi is gifted and capable, and he has Pei Yu, a powerful thousand-year-old evil ghost, to help him, making him the perfect bait to lure the snake out of its hole.

However, considering Cen Shenyi's safety, the Investigation Bureau still found Jiang Heyun as a backup.

After Pei Yu and Cen Shenyi returned home, Cen Shenyi locked himself in his room for a whole day and night.

Pei Yu knew that Cen Shenyi was busy preparing talisman paper and magic tools, so he never went in to disturb him except to deliver meals.

The next morning, Pei Yu made breakfast and brought it to Cen Shenyi's room.

As soon as he put his breakfast on the small table next to the balcony, Cen Shenyi, who was sitting in the rocking chair, put his arms around his waist.

Pei Yu looked down at Cen Shenyi's head buried in his arms, pinched the back of his neck, and asked with a smile: "What's wrong?"

"Recharging, I'm so tired." Cen Shenyi said sullenly while buried in Pei Yu's arms.

After a while, Cen Shenyi moved his head away from Pei Yu's arms, went to the bathroom to wash up, then sat in the rocking chair to eat the food Pei Yu brought to him.

While eating, Cen Shenyi became a little distracted, and his eyes fell on Pei Yu who was lying on the sofa.

Pei Yu was still wearing the red brocade robe, but the style was much more flamboyant than the one he was originally wearing. It looked like the kind of robe that only some royal nobles could wear. It must have been given to him by the old Taoist priests from the Investigation Bureau.

“Pei Yu.”

"Um?"

“How did you die?”

Evil ghosts are all born out of obsession. It is difficult for those who do not have great resentment during their lifetime to become ghosts.

Not to mention an evil ghost like Pei Yu who has existed for thousands of years.

Pei Yu rested his head on the armrest of the sofa and thought for a while: "He died in the war. The enemy surrounded the city, the army was out of food, there were rebels inside, my food was poisoned, and then I was captured alive by the enemy commander."

Pei Yu's tone was light, but Cen Shenyi could piece together from these few words the tragic situation of a young famous general who was attacked from all sides.

Cen Shenyi took a deep breath and said, "Then what?"

"Then..." Pei Yu twisted his hair with his fingertips and said, "I desperately escaped from the enemy camp and cut off the commander's head, but I never thought that the emperor would believe the slander and think that I instructed the deputy general to collude with the enemy and betray the country, so he shot me through the heart with thousands of arrows outside the Mengcheng Gate."

His original body died a violent death, but he still had resentment in his heart. By chance, he turned into a ghost and wanted to send a dream to the emperor to prove his innocence in order to save the lives of his family.

However, he did not know the truth until this time. The so-called treason was all instigated by the emperor in order to get rid of him, just because he was afraid of his enormous power.

After the original body died, the Dog Emperor was afraid that the original body's wronged ghost would come to claim his life, so he nailed the original body to death in a coffin with forty-nine nails. His soul could not be reincarnated, and it nurtured resentment for a thousand years in the endless darkness.

After Pei Yu came to this world, this fragment of his original soul had already lost its sanity due to resentment, and could not be integrated even after Pei Yu woke up.

Finally, Pei Yu pulled the dog emperor's soul out of the imperial mausoleum and beat it to pieces in front of his own soul fragment before he merged it with the fragment.

Pei Yu was just thinking when someone suddenly jumped into his arms.

Cen Shenyi put his hand on Pei Yu's chest, pursed his lips and stared at Pei Yu's face.

Pei Yu pinched his face and said, "Master Xiao Cen, you are not going to cry, are you?"

"No," Cen Shenyi endured the soreness in his eyes, and then rested his head in Pei Yu's arms and said, "... a little bit."

Cen Shenyi moved one hand and carefully touched Pei Yu's chest. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "What a pity! That blind dog emperor should have entered reincarnation long ago, otherwise I would have used talisman paper to roast him into a meat pie."

Pei Yu listened and said with a smile: "How can you, a ghost hunter, have such a bad temper?"

"He can't distinguish between loyalty and treachery, and can't recognize a good general. He deserves to be beaten by me." Cen Shenyi said with a sullen face.

Pei Yu stared at the top of Cen Shenyi's head and said, "If you want to smoke, it's not impossible."

Upon hearing this, Cen Shenyi looked up at Pei Yu in confusion.

Pei Yu squeezed Cen Shenyi's hand and said, "He has not been reincarnated and is still in the imperial mausoleum."

Cen Shenyi stared at Pei Yu, then suddenly pulled Pei Yu's hand and said, "Let's go and draw now!"

“Hey,” Pei Yu stopped Cen Shenyi’s action with a helpless look, and said, “Before we go, we have to call someone else.”

Cen Shenyi: “?”

The imperial tomb is located in the suburbs not far from Suizhou City. It has not been excavated yet, and people do not know that there is an underground palace in the mountains.

Xie Zeyu placed one hand on the wall of the underground imperial mausoleum, his calm face filled with ecstasy that could no longer be concealed.

Then Xie Zeyu put down his hand and fixed his shining eyes on Pei Yu.

Cen Shenyi frowned and pulled Pei Yu behind him.

Xie Zeyu: “…”

Xie Zeyu said: "I never thought, General Pei, you could actually enter and exit the imperial mausoleum directly."

Before his death, Xie Zeyu was demoted to a commoner and was not allowed to enter the imperial mausoleum. Therefore, even after he became a ghost, he was not allowed to enter.

The imperial aura was too strong in the imperial mausoleum, making it difficult for ghosts to invade. He originally wanted to rely on the jade handed down from generation to generation to cover up the aura to enter, but he never thought that Pei Yu could come and go easily.

No wonder Pei Yu didn't cooperate with him. It seemed like entering the imperial mausoleum was like going home.

Although they are both evil spirits, most of his abilities are sealed, and the nails on Pei Yu's coffin are like toys, completely useless.

There is really no place to seek justice even if you become a ghost.

Pei Yu: "You want to find something in the imperial mausoleum, right? Finish one thing with us, and you can find it anytime you want in the remaining time."

Xie Zeyu was delighted, then stared at Pei Yu suspiciously: "Are you so kind?"

"Do you want to find something?" Pei Yu raised his eyebrows.

Xie Zeyu fell silent, gritted his teeth and said, "Tell me what's going on."

Pei Yu: "Pull out the soul of Emperor Mingde and beat him up."

Xie Zeyu: "...That's my father!"

Pei Yu: "You don't want to smoke?"

Xie Zeyu's cheek muscles twitched as he hummed, "Give me a few more yellow talismans."
