"It feels so good to see the light of day again!”A ghost stood on the messy mass grave under the moonlight and sighed. He was in a very happy mood, like a fairy dancing under the moon. However, it was a little strange that ghosts could also sigh.
The King of Hell said " Wish me good luck " and then slipped away. I was sent to the mass grave where I had spent some time as a zombie after my death. I looked at the silver light of the round moon in the sky and the chaotic mass grave. The scene of my battle with the mountain god was everywhere.
Since I had to find my corpse before I could resurrect, I had no choice but to search for my past and future body along the Mass Grave area. I remembered that the last place I left was the Mountain Temple where the zombies and the Mountain God fought, so I drifted in the direction of the Mountain Temple.
I was really not used to this insubstantial body. I could neither run nor jump like a zombie. I could only sway forward. It was really unpleasant. However, there was one good thing about this. When I encountered trees or things blocking my way, I could continue to move forward without looking sideways. It was as if I could see nothing. This feeling made me quite happy for a while. Thinking about how it would be if I could silently enter Little Junior Sister's room and peek at her charming sleeping posture or bathing…I didn't dare to think about it anymore. If I thought about it, I was afraid that I would become the first ghost to have a nosebleed.
However, at this moment, my saliva seemed to be about to flow out. If ghosts had saliva, my heart would have already flown to the sect that had once grown up with little junior sister.
When I finally arrived at the entrance of the Mountain God Temple, I met the Mountain God who I had met once before. He was standing at the entrance and looking at me with a faint smile. Looking at his attire, it seemed that he was much better than last time. It seemed that he had gained a lot of benefits from the battle with the Thousand-Year Zombie King. He would not be so poor that he did not even have the Mountain God Staff.
Because I was a ghost who had come back to life, and I had a close relationship with this Mountain God (no matter what, I was a benefactor who had saved his life), I wouldn't be like the other ghosts who didn't dare to get within a thousand feet of the Mountain God Temple.
"Little friend, welcome back to the colorful world. Based on your past experiences, I believe that you are a strong man.”Why do I feel that the Mountain God's expression when he welcomed me is a little sad? Moreover, he doesn't dare to look into my eyes. Is my status too high for him to look directly at me?
A strong man? I like this title. Taking advantage of the joy of returning to the human world, I didn't pay too much attention to the Mountain God's unnatural expression. I asked expectantly,"Grandpa Mountain God, did you see my corpse come to your house?”If an ordinary person heard this, they would definitely be scared to death.
"Little Ke Xin, I'm really sorry. I wasn't at home these two days, so I don't know if your corpse came to my house as a guest. You can come in and look for it yourself. You've had a hard journey, so you can drink some tea to relieve your fatigue.”The mountain god was a little embarrassed and wanted to hide something, his expression evasive.
I thought it made sense, so I flashed through the door that the mountain god opened and looked around.
The Mountain God Temple was even worse than when I turned into a ghost. The mountain god statue was already covered in cracks, and it was on the verge of collapsing into a pile of mud at any moment. The roof tiles were broken and the eaves were broken. The walls were covered in cracks. When the wind blew in, they swayed. If one was not careful, they would be buried.
I carefully looked around the Mountain God Temple. To my disappointment, other than the remains of the thousand-year-old Zombie King under the mountain god statue, there was also a pile of zombies that had yet to melt at the door, but none of them belonged to me.
I looked at the mountain god nervously, but the mountain god deliberately turned his head away and didn't dare to look into my eyes. I expected something wrong and asked in fear,"Grandpa Mountain God, do you think my corpse has turned to ashes?”
" This…ahem…ahem…actually…that…um…" Mountain God Tun stammered. In the end, under my intense gaze, he seemed to have made up his mind to take a deep breath and slowly exhale. Then, he looked at me guiltily and said,""I'm really sorry, but your corpse is missing.”
"Gone?" It was as if a bolt of lightning had struck my mind. After a long time, I came back to my senses and asked,"Are you saying that my corpse is only gone and not turned into ashes?”
"That's right, it disappeared into thin air in front of my eyes without leaving any trace. Even when I searched all the nearby mountain caves, I couldn't find any traces.”After the mountain god spoke, his expression became natural as if he had been relieved of a heavy burden.
Although there was a fundamental difference between " gone " and " missing ", as a ghost who was eager to find his own corpse and wait for resurrection, both of these were unacceptable. Because even if I, a ghost, could afford to delay, my corpse couldn't. At that time, wouldn't " missing " become " gone "? Time wouldn't allow it.
I was so anxious that I jumped. Of course, it wasn't the way a zombie jumped. "Is there really no clue at all? Or was it stolen or eaten by something?”
"Clues? "It's not that I haven't checked the scene, but this is really strange. Ordinary wild cats and dogs can't escape my eyes at all. As for what was stolen…" The mountain god lowered his head thoughtfully and looked up at me from time to time."There's something that I've always found very strange. Logically speaking, when I was fighting with the Thousand Year Zombie King, a little zombie like you should have been destroyed like the other little zombies the moment you touched my golden light protection. But not only were you fine, you even saved my life by some strange coincidence. Moreover, at that time, not only were you much stronger than ordinary little zombies, even some zombie lords were not your match. With your strength at that time, it was impossible for me not to notice it. Can you tell me what the secret is?”
I tilted my head and thought for a while. Then, I told the Mountain God about my time as a zombie, especially about the Purple Crystal Jade.
The Mountain God looked at me in disbelief and asked me,""You said that you bumped into Catwoman the moment you came out that day? Did your Purple Crystal Jade absorb the soul of the cat demon?”
I recalled what happened that day and shook my head."No, if I had absorbed the Cat Demon's thousand years of cultivation, I would have returned to the Purple Crystal Jade to sleep. However, I didn't go back at that time. Instead, I was controlled by the Thousand Year Zombie King to come to your temple.”
"You didn't absorb the 1,000-year demonic cat's cultivation, and the 1,000-year zombie king didn't absorb the 1,000-year demonic cat's cultivation either. If the 1,000-year zombie king absorbed the 1,000-year demonic cat's cultivation, I wouldn't have been his match at all. But at that time, the Thousand Year Zombie King and I both felt the Thousand Year Demon Cat's mana fluctuations. At that time, we mistakenly thought that the Thousand Year Demon Cat had been killed by the other party, so we immediately attacked. But now, it seemed that the 1,000-year Demon Cat was not dead at all. What was going on?”
The mountain god looked at me thoughtfully, and finally said happily as if he had suddenly realized something,""I understand now. All of this is because of that purple jade of yours. If I'm not wrong, that purple jade of yours should be a cultivation magic treasure. According to the situation at that time, Catwoman came down the mountain to play and happened to bump into you jumping out of the soil. "Your appearance gave the cat demon a fright. However, the cat demon used to be a cultivator, so he immediately recognized that the Purple Crystal Jade you were wearing was a cultivation magic treasure. Therefore, he immediately thought of a plan. That was to pretend to be dead and deliberately cast a spell to cause a large-scale fluctuation of magic power to attract the attention of me and the Zombie King. Then, when you come out of the Purple Crystal, you will immediately hide in the Purple Crystal Jade so that the Zombie King and I can't detect the cat demon's existence." It made us think that the thousand-year-old demon cat was killed and absorbed by the other party, causing me and the thousand-year-old zombie king to fight to the death in the mountain temple that day. This was a plan to kill with a borrowed knife. However, as he wished, both of us suffered heavy losses. Moreover, the Thousand-Year Zombie King died on the spot. However, after the Thousand-Year Zombie King died, his thousand-year cultivation disappeared. He thought that it was absorbed by me, so he did not dare to attack me again. He did not expect that the thousand-year cultivation was absorbed by you. It was really close. If he found out that I was almost at the end of my life, he would definitely regret it now.”
With that, the Mountain God revealed a look of relief and continued,""The thousand-year-old demon cat didn't dare to attack me, nor did it dare to come out of the Purple Crystal Jade. Therefore, it controlled your body and escaped, which is why you can't find your corpse now.”
My corpse was taken over by a thousand-year-old demon cat? I suddenly felt my world spin and my vision turned black. I really wanted to faint and not accept the reality in front of me. I muttered to myself,"What should we do, what should we do?"
The mountain god looked at me apologetically." Kexin, you lost your body because of me, and you can't be resurrected. I sympathize with your experience and am deeply sorry. The most important thing now is to find the body that was taken away by the Catwoman. Why don't we split up and look for her? I'll contact the nearby mountain gods to keep an eye on the Cat Demon's whereabouts while you think of a way to find her. After all, we can't rush her now.”
I really wanted to agree with the Mountain God's opinion, but I was afraid that my corpse wouldn't agree with the Mountain God's wise idea. I was afraid that before I could say goodbye to my body, there would be no bones left. At that time, the Mountain God wouldn't suffer any losses. At most, he would continue to drink northwest wind in the dilapidated mountain temple. However, I was different. If I didn't do well, my soul might dissipate and disappear into thin air.
"Don't worry, your body is protected by the Purple Crystal Jade, so it won't deteriorate for a while. Moreover, the magic power of the thousand-year-old Demon Cat is profound, and he needs your body to cultivate, so he won't do something stupid like destroying the corpse.”The mountain god seemed to see through my worries and comforted me.
"Really?" " Are you sure my body won't be destroyed?" I asked, not quite sure what the Mountain God meant.”
"I can guarantee that. You can rest assured that the Purple Crystal Jade is not an ordinary magic treasure. You can go and find it with peace of mind.”
