Chapter 910 The Song Family’s Curse

As soon as Meng Zhe saw that there was no trace of Song Jiang beside Gu Hao, he knew that they might have been tricked by someone here. The other party must have used some tricks to deliberately separate him and Song Jiang... Although Meng Zhe was sure that the other party would never dare to do anything to Song Jiang due to his existence, the purpose of their doing so was obviously to guard against him, which made the White Tiger God very angry for a while.

"Where is Song Jiang? Didn't he go to look for you? Why did you come back alone?!" Deng Kai asked in surprise.

Meng Zhe said with a gloomy expression, "He was tricked away by a ghost..."

"Ah?! I told him he shouldn't go, but he wouldn't listen... now something has happened." Deng Kai was shocked after hearing this.

Compared to Deng Kai's impatience, Gu Hao was much calmer. He frowned and asked, "Is there something wrong with that gap?"

Meng Zhe nodded and said, "That gap is indeed very unusual... After Song Jiang and I passed through the gap, we went directly into the hell, and then we saw a huge black rock. It was at this moment that a cloud of mist floated out and separated the two of us. I thought that Song Jiang might return the same way if he couldn't find me, so I came back to see if he was there."

"The Hell of Unending Suffering is not a place to joke around. It's full of evil ghosts who eat people without leaving any bones behind! When Song Jiang entered there, it was like a little white rabbit falling into a wolf's den... So what should we do now? I can't get through the barrier, so I can't help you find someone in the underworld." Gu Hao said with a slightly anxious expression.

Meng Zhe waved his hands and said, "No need for you... I can go in and look for him myself. As long as I am sure that Song Jiang is still in there, I will find him even if I have to turn the underworld upside down."

  =========

Song Jiang didn't know whether he should believe the two "dead ghosts" in front of him. Besides, they had no good intentions in deliberately separating him and Meng Zhe. If he rashly believed them, he would definitely fall into the trap they had carefully designed for the two of them...

After figuring this out, Song Jiang said with a smile, "Well, it's true that I'm surprised by what I've seen. If you say it's Avici Hell, then it's Avici Hell. You have the final say... But there's one thing. I don't care if you are the Ninth Prince or the Tenth Prince. I know my own business. No matter what, it's not your turn to interfere, right?! Since you know who I am, you should know who I came with. You risked offending the White Tiger God to find me. What's your purpose?"

Seeing that this mortal named Song Jiang was not as easy to talk to as he had imagined, King Pingdeng could not help but secretly say to the hunchbacked old man beside him, "The information about Song Jiang that Li Meng gave me doesn't seem to be accurate enough. Didn't he say that he was a simple person?"

The hunchbacked old man shook his head and said, "Even the simplest person will become complicated if he stays with the white tiger for a long time... We still need to be careful."

Seeing that the other party was whispering in front of him, Song Jiang shook his head and said, "Since you have summoned me here, just say what you want to say quickly, otherwise when the White Tiger God finds out that I am missing, you won't have much time to waste..."

After hearing this, King Pingdeng gave a look to the hunchbacked old man next to him. The latter smiled and said, "Song Jiang, it seems that you trust the White Tiger Lord quite a lot, but do you know whether he trusts you?" When Song Jiang heard that the other party was here to sow discord between him and Meng Zhe, he sneered and said, "Otherwise, if he doesn't trust me, does he have to trust you?"

After being scolded again, the hunchbacked old man was somewhat embarrassed and said with an unhappy look, "Song Jiang, at my age, I am more than qualified to be your ancestor. Can't you be more polite when speaking?"

Song Jiang shook his head and said in a tough tone, "I will never be polite to people who have no good intentions... or ghosts. If you appeared in front of me today just to sow discord between me and Lord White Tiger, then you are making a wrong calculation."

When King Pingdeng heard this, he flew into a rage and said, "Song Jiang, boy, if it weren't for Suzaku's sake, I would have crushed you to dust just for your attitude!"

The hunchbacked old man beside him suddenly changed his expression after hearing this, and hurriedly shook his head slightly at King Pingdeng, indicating that he had said something wrong. King Pingdeng then reacted and hurriedly looked away with a guilty look...

Song Jiang was also stunned when he heard this. He couldn't understand how he got involved with Zhuque again? Who should I consider him for? "No... Explain clearly, Zhuque and I are not familiar with each other, why should you consider him for his sake?!"

"Uh... I cannot tell you the reason. Today I am here to tell you that you were born with a special mission. You should shoulder this mission. Otherwise, the curse on your family will continue." King Pingdeng said in a cold voice.

When Song Jiang heard the other party mention the curse of his family, his heart sank slightly, and he felt that the matter seemed to be complicated, but he pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Family curse? Have you read too many fantasy novels?!"

Unexpectedly, King Pingdeng said in a deep voice, "Your ancestors were once a prosperous family a thousand years ago, but they gradually declined due to an unexpected event. That event was that there was a Ling'er who was cursed and would be reincarnated into the Song family for generations. This Ling'er had a special fate. Although it could ensure that the bloodline of the Song family would be passed down from generation to generation, it also absorbed all the good deeds and blessings left by the ancestors of the Song family. Therefore, the bloodline of the Song family, especially the male offspring, died early, and the Ling'er in this life... is you."

Song Jiang's heart skipped a beat after hearing this. He knew in his heart that what the other party said was true. Although he didn't know what happened a thousand years ago, Song Jiang was very familiar with what his father's generation and his grandfather's generation had experienced. It was true that all the male members of the family died early, and some even didn't leave any offspring...

For example, Song Jiang's grandfather was the youngest child in the family. He was handsome and loved by his elders. But since he was born, his family has been in trouble. His older brothers died within three years, and he himself died suddenly of an acute illness when he was just 16 years old.

When Song Jiang was very young, he saw a black-and-white photo of the little grandfather at his aunt's house. He was indeed a handsome boy. At that time, his aunt loved Song Jiang very much. But as he grew up, he found that he was 70% similar to the little grandfather in his eyebrows and eyes... It was also from that time that his aunt's eyes looked at Song Jiang more and more strangely.
