in the name of evil

Chapter 111
Jiang Li received a message from Zuo Zihuan in the evening, telling him that all the ghosts in the two districts had been subdued.

"There are still some ghosts who are unwilling to submit to us and have already escaped. There is no time to catch them. Now that you have free hands, do you need to find them back?"

Zuo Zihuan asked Jiang Lidao for instructions.

Jiang Li thought for a while, and sent a message to Zuo Zihuan: "Don't worry about them, run out of Jiangcheng if you have the ability, or you will have to come to the bowl obediently sooner or later."

"Understood, and as I said before, invite the ghost kings to the Hongmen Banquet to catch everything. You can set a time."

Jiang Li asked: "How many ghost kings are there in total?"

"There are four in total, three of the six urban areas, each controlling the ghosts in two districts, and one in the suburbs, which is the remaining Jiangxin District."

Jiang Li was in a daze when he mentioned Jiangxin District.

My own trial mission is in Jiangxin District, which is where the dream began.

"As soon as possible, in order to let them relax their vigilance, let's set the place in Jiangxin District. The specific location is to be determined. In short, try every means to bring them together."

"clear."

Opening his eyes, Jiang Li heaved a sigh of relief.

All seems to be going well.

But that night, Jiang Li, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly felt a palpitation.

When he opened his eyes and sat up, he realized that it was Zuo Zihuan who was summoning him urgently.

"Those four ghost kings can't sit still anymore. The ghosts I left in the outskirts of Xiding District and Jiangkou District were all captured by them."

Jiang Li frowned all of a sudden: "What does this mean? Could it be that they want to attack you first and besiege you?"

"It's not that simple. They seem to have some plans for me. They left a message. It's true. If I don't want to become weak, I have to do what they say."

For some reason, Jiang Li felt that there seemed to be a strange smile in Zuo Zihuan's voice.

"Why do they think they can threaten you?" Jiang Li was a little puzzled.

"It's like this. In fact, as a ghost king, that is, a ghost lord in an area, the biggest advantage is that you can absorb grievances from the little ghosts under your hands to strengthen yourself, and then under the protection of the ghost king, these little ghosts can harvest from ordinary people. Resentment finally forms an energy supply system.

I originally thought that besides devouring it directly, this was the only way to strengthen myself as a ghost, but Master Shenshu told me that there are two other ways to become stronger.

The first is to obtain the exercises that can be used in ghost cultivation, and the second is to be able to bind a superior person, and the superior person will become stronger as well. I belong to the latter now. "

"The skills that ghosts practice? Ghosts can still practice?" Hearing this, Jiang Li couldn't help interjecting.

"You don't know? I thought you knew.

But that's not important, I'll go ahead and talk about it later if there are any problems.

So these four ghost kings probably don't know the other two methods, thinking that I rely on these little ghosts to gain grievances, so this trick is a draw from the bottom.

According to common sense, if I don't listen to them, I will lose the source of resentment and become weaker and weaker. Under their control, I probably won't find any ghosts to devour me in Jiangcheng.

At that time, I will only have two choices. One is to join them and be controlled by them. The other is to leave Jiangcheng. If I am lucky, I can still hang out. If I am not lucky, I may become a little ghost under the hands of more advanced ghosts and lose my freedom. , or even simply swallowed. "

Zuo Zihuan explained the pros and cons to Jiang Li, and Jiang Li asked immediately after hearing this:
"So, what happened to those little ghosts who were captured? Were they all killed?"

"No, they just said, let me see them."

"Understood, that is to say, in their thinking, there is still room for this matter. I guess most of them want to use you and want you to be their dog."

Jiang Li said clearly:

"That's easy. How did Zhengchou ask them out? Isn't this a shot at the gun? I've already thought about the location, and it's set at the abandoned villa at No. 7-39 Bailu Street."

On the other side, the four ghost kings were speechless looking at Zuo Zihuan's hundreds of younger brothers who were locked in the sewer.

They looked at the neat black suits on these boys, and looked down at themselves in rags and hideous appearance. They suddenly felt that they had already lost before everything started.

"What's the situation? I didn't catch the wrong person, did I? Could it be that the human beings from some company were arrested?"

"No, in my perception, these are all of the same kind."

"Outrageous. But in short, the first step of the plan has been completed."

They felt that the newly appeared ghost king was a little weird, when they heard a little ghost say that he had caught another black suit, and that the black suit had something to say to them.

"Hooked."

There is a ghost king who is secretly delighted.

They immediately asked the kid to bring the man over.

The one who came was none other than the former study committee member and now the No. [-] executive officer named by Zuo Zihuan.

Ever since No.[-] witnessed Jiang Li blowing up the whole building at will, he no longer has any respect for these so-called ghost kings.

Even though there were four ghost kings standing in front of it at the same time, it still felt that it was not as good as Jiang Li's toe.

"The octopus asked you to come?"

A ghost king spoke arrogantly.

No. [-], who is an informant, recognized at a glance that this was the ghost king of Jiangxin District, and the remaining three could also be matched.

"Master Octopus said, as long as you don't hurt our people, you can say anything, and he understands your intentions. In order to show his sincerity, he will wait for you at the abandoned villa at No. 7-39 Bailu Street."

No. [-]'s voice was gloomy, and the word "Gongwai" was said with a strong voice, which seemed to have some irony in it.

The four ghost kings seemed to be quite displeased with No. [-]'s tone, and the ghost king of Jiangxin District immediately showed a ghost king's breath, trying to scare No. [-].

No. [-] suddenly felt unsteady, and his face changed slightly, but there was still no respect at all on his already pale face. It seemed that there were two large characters written on it—that's it?
The Ghost King of Jiangxin District seemed to want to say something more, but No. [-] spoke first:

"Lord Octopus has long expected that you will do this, and he also asked me to bring you a message in advance. You have disappointed Master Octopus."

"You bastard!" The ghost king of Jiangxin District was furious immediately, trying to devour No. [-].

But No. [-] still has no fear on its face, even though it is praying crazily in its heart: I have been honest since I was a child, monitor, you don’t want to lie to honest people
Another ghost king who looked more stable stopped it: "Don't forget our purpose, if you ruin the plan, we will not agree!"

The King of Ghosts in Jiangxin District calmed down, and asked the little ghost to throw No. [-] into the sewer prison, and sent someone to guard it strictly.

"Is it the abandoned villa at No. 7-39, Bailu Street? What do you think?"

A ghost king asked.

The Ghost King of Jiangxin District sneered, "Can I still be afraid when I get to my territory?"

"Then go."

"Okay, its foundation has been mastered by us, even the dragon has to be coiled by us."

The four ghost kings immediately decided to meet this arrogant new ghost king together.

At this time, Jiang Li had already taken a taxi and went to the abandoned villa where he first met Song Xian, the place where the dream began.

Led by the ghost king of Jiangxin District, the ghost kings walked quickly through the sewer, and soon came to the place agreed with Zuo Zihuan.

"I didn't even know there was a villa here."

The Ghost King of Jiangxin District walked into the villa and looked around.

"Is it really okay not to bring some little ghosts?" asked the cautious ghost king.

The ghost king of Jiangxin District waved his hand: "We have already surpassed the level of little ghosts. In this kind of situation, it is useless except to support the scene. It seems that we are afraid of him."

"Too."

But just as they entered the door with their front feet, Zuo Zihuan arrived with his back feet.

Zuo Zihuan didn't come alone, he also brought a few black suits, they put the chairs they brought in the empty living room of the abandoned villa, and then left the villa.

"sit."

Zuo Zihuan said coldly to the four ghost kings who had been watching him all the time, and then sat on one of the chairs.

The four ghost kings looked at each other and sat on the other four chairs facing Zuo Zihuan.

"Are you an octopus?"

The Ghost King of Jiangxin District squinted his eyes, his iron-blue skin stuck tightly to his bones, like a mummy.

Zuo Zihuan nodded: "My people have been taken care of by you."

"You crossed the line and we had to."

According to the information provided by No. [-], Zuo Zihuan put the four ghost kings on the number one by one.

The four ghost kings each have their own characteristics. The ghost king of Jiangxin District is the fiercest, but very reckless and impulsive. Among the other three, the most difficult one is the ghost king who is speaking now. He is very stable and has the oldest qualifications.

"What boundary have I crossed? What does the matter between me and the ghost king of Jiangkou District have to do with you?"

"Ghosts born in which district, even if they become ghost kings, can only operate in this district and cannot extend their hands to other districts, and you actually killed the ghost king in Jiangkou district yesterday, and you said you didn't cross the border?

If you do this, it's inevitable that we will be jealous and wary of you, right? "

Zuo Zihuan sneered: "I don't believe you don't know, it was the one who reached out to me first."

"Because of this, we will sit here and communicate well, instead of directly besieging you."

"Is there a difference?" Zuo Zihuan shook his head, feeling a little bored by such rhetoric.

Isn't this the standard Lizhongke?
Facts aside, I think it's your problem anyway.

"Of course there is a difference, at least we are not fighting now, aren't we?"

The steady ghost king smiled.

Zuo Zihuan couldn't get used to him, so he directly tore through the window paper:

"It's not that you don't want to fight, but you are worried that you won't be able to beat me, so you save the country with a curve, and even have the illusion of forcing me to do things for you, am I right?"

What Zuo Zihuan said made the other three ghost kings look a little ugly, but the prudent ghost king sighed:

"Negotiation is a step-by-step temptation. How can there be someone who turns the table up like you?"

"Want to negotiate? Yes.

My condition is that you let my people go, and then you will also hang out with me in the future, everyone is happy, how about it? "

Zuo Zihuan tilted his head, staring down at the ghost kings.

As soon as these words came out, not to mention the other three ghost kings, the most stable ghost king was also a little annoyed:
"Don't you think, given your current situation, you are not qualified to say such things to us?

Even if you are stronger than that lunatic, we are not stupid, and we won't fight you head-on like that lunatic. Even if you can fight four against one, I'm afraid you can't help us.

Maybe we are not your opponent, but after a while?

No matter how hard it is for you to find ghosts to supplement your daily consumption in Jiangcheng, even if you take the risk of reaching out to humans, do you think those magic-wielding monsters who protect humans will let you do whatever you want?
You have just become the ghost king, and many things are unclear. The water here is very deep. Even if you are the strongest ghost king in Jiangcheng, it is impossible to grasp it. Some humans, their height is not even within our reach, otherwise now Instead of living in the shadows, we are in control of the world.

Listen to my advice, just follow us honestly in the future, we can take care of you if you don't understand, isn't it better than being a headless chicken?

You may not know that there used to be a ghost king in the Xiding district where you are. Although we have never seen it, we heard that it is comparable in strength to that madman. If it is still alive, it may be second only to you.

But even such ghosts were easily dealt with by those weirdos, and as far as I know, there are not a few such weirdos in this world.

This is also the reason why we have decided that we will never go to war if it is not necessary. Once they get their attention, we will be greeted with a catastrophe!

If you continue like this, you will definitely step into the footsteps of the former ghost king in Xiding District! "

The Prudent Ghost King earnestly advised Zuo Zihuan.

But Zuo Zihuan's heart didn't fluctuate, and he even wanted to laugh.

Having said so much, it is still as Jiang Li expected, the purpose is to make himself a tool ghost for them.

And what he didn't expect was that he was actually a stand-in?
As for the so-called weirdo, Zuo Zihuan knew very well that he was just a cultivator of immortals.

For him who was backed by Jiang Li, a cultivator?It's just a bunch of good brothers who speak well.

"Sure enough, only when faced with a huge threat, people who are hostile to each other will unite and say some irrelevant things."

Zuo Zihuan sneered:
"You talk about setting the rules, but in fact it's just to protect your own rules and regulations. You really think I don't know. Aren't your small movements in secret much worse than directly reaching out in the open?"

Zuo Zihuan's words undoubtedly tore off the last fig leaf of the ghost kings.

They all know in their hearts how fierce the open and secret struggles have been these years, and there is even a ghost king among them, who stepped on the previous ghost king to take the throne. As a ghost, how could it be possible to talk about friendship and reason with you.

It's reasonable just because you can't beat it with your hands.

"It's almost time, I should go."

Zuo Zihuan twisted his neck, then stood up, and looked at the ghost kings who were still kept in the dark with a faint smile.

"It seems that you are going to go your own way?"

The Steady Ghost King stared at Zuo Zihuan:
"You will regret this."

"I don't know if I will regret it, I only know that you were wrong from the beginning."

Zuo Zihuan's eyes seemed to be looking at the corpse.

"Negotiations are based on the same strengths of the two parties. For you, this is a negotiation, but for me, it is just an opportunity for you to join me. If you accept my conditions, everything will be fine. If you don't accept it, then I'll just leave and let other people accept, it's that simple."

After finishing speaking, black tadpole-like text patterns flickered under Zuo Zihuan's feet, forming a formation, and the whole person and the chair disappeared in place.

Seeing this scene, even the muscular Jiangxin District Ghost King felt that something was wrong:
"Why is this so similar to the methods of those weirdos?"

The prudent ghost king seemed to remember something, and suddenly looked at a ghost king who had been silent all this time:
"You are in charge of Xichen District and Nan'an District. Have you investigated the former ghost king in Xiding District?"

The ghost king who was asked was taken aback for a moment, then frowned, and recalled earnestly:

"I haven't seen it, but I heard that when he died, he seemed to be a child, about the same age as an octopus?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone including itself sensed that something was wrong.

"Damn it, he was put together! It's true that he was attacked by strange people, but he didn't die. The method he used to leave here just now was also the method of those strange people. He colluded with the strange people!"

The Steady Ghost King subconsciously wanted to get up and leave here, but he was shocked to find that he couldn't move!
The other ghost kings also struggled to get up, but the chairs under them bound them tightly, and they couldn't even move a little bit.

"There is an inner ghost!" Jiangxin District Ghost King shouted angrily with blue veins stretching across his face.

Outside the villa, Zuo Zihuan walked towards Jiang Li, who was surrounded by a dozen black suits in the shadows, and was sitting on a chair drinking coffee with Song Xian.

"The talk has collapsed? Just right, I'm ready too, and the delay is just right." Jiang Li stretched his waist, and was woken up in the middle of the night, and the anger he had been accumulating for getting up seemed to have a place to vent.

"Normal ghosts wouldn't agree to your conditions, would they?"

Zuo Zihuan was a little helpless, in the eyes of the four ghost kings, it was like prisoners of war asking them to surrender.

Jiang Li shrugged: "Don't over-extend the conditions and force them to overturn the table. Where can I go to cut leeks?"

"Uh..." Zuo Zihuan scratched his face, "Actually, I lifted the table."

"It's okay, it's all the same."

Jiang Li waved his hand: "Leaving aside the facts, it must be their problem.

I know that you are the most reasonable, and they must be pissing you off on purpose because they didn't listen to my conditions. "

"Yes, that's it." Zuo Zihuan nodded.

I don't know why, but those ghost kings who "put aside the facts" made him feel disgusted and disgusted, but Jiang Li "put aside the facts", Zuo Zihuan felt that he was worthy of being his mentor Jiang Li, and he really had a sense of dominance. gas.

"Okay, then it's time to do it. It's not that I haven't given them a chance, but I didn't expect that if you didn't agree or say anything, you would even want to resist, and you were so angry that you flipped the table. It's too much. Put me in your eyes!"

Jiang Li got up and walked out of the shadows, came to the front of the villa, took off the concealment spell on his body provocatively at the gate, and waved friendlyly to the four ghost kings who noticed him with tearing eyes.

Afterwards, Jiang Li stomped his feet lightly, and a huge formation rose up around the entire villa. The black tadpole runes shone with mysterious luster, exuding an unspeakable charm. At the nodes, there are still floating spells full of runes.

Jiang Li turned his head to look at Zuo Zihuan, Song Xian and the crowd in black suits who were already stunned.

"Look, this is my elementary secret, uh, the microwave array!"

Jiang Li looked proud:
"Tonight's supper is - Beggar Ghost King!"

As Jiang Li's voice fell, the formation began to work, and the spells rotated rapidly in the formation.

The black formation gradually emitted an orange-yellow light, and the abandoned villa began to tremble slightly with the activation of the formation.

Seeing that the formation has met his expectations, Jiang Li nodded with satisfaction and began to explain.

"The inspiration for this move comes from microwave ovens. Through the combination of arrays and spells, substances, including aura and resentment, can be shaken. Although this trick itself does not generate heat, it can make things in the array generate heat by itself.

As for why it is called the King of Beggars, it is because the outside is a villa, like a layer of mud wrapped in baked goods.

After the villa is melted by the microwave array, the ghost king will become one of the best roast chickens, which can be eaten at that time.

You see, it's starting to melt, um, the temperature is high, so it needs to be roasted slowly. "

After Jiang Li finished speaking, he began to fiddle with the formation.

Zuo Zihuan and Song Xian looked at each other, and they both saw incomprehension in each other's eyes.

Jiang Li is getting more and more fancy.

Along with the painful howls of the ghost kings, Jiang Li's face was full of excitement.

You guys just don't let me sleep, right?

When the villa began to collapse and the ghost kings made no more noise, Jiang Li stopped the operation of the formation, walked into the ruins, and dug out a mass of liquefied resentment like digging potatoes.

The agglomeration of resentment was still emitting white gas, so Jiang Li couldn't help blowing, and the agglomeration fluttered back and forth between his hands.

"It's burnt." Jiang Li shook his head regretfully.

Chef Jiang was not very satisfied with the result of making supper himself for the first time.

　I'm busy with homework today, sorry for the lateness.

　　In addition, I saw the news about mu5735 today, and my mood is very complicated. I hope the deceased can rest in peace. I also hope that everyone cherishes the present and cherishes every day, because every day is a lucky day. Everyone should always be positive and optimistic, and don’t let bad things happen. The emotions ruined this luck.

　　good night.
