Start by summoning Black Death Mou

Chapter 229 Half a Year
Zitong half-kneeled in front of Gu Chen.

She was wearing a black cloak, hiding herself in the shadows, and the winding string and the number six, representing her identity, were engraved on her left and right pupils respectively.

This is a rare meeting between Zi Tong and Gu Chen.

After Twelve Ghost Moons were assigned to Hei Si Mou's subordinates, every time Gu Chen held a meeting, only Hei Si Mou and other department heads came, and they were not qualified to go there.

Moreover, because of what happened last time, Zi Tong has fallen out of favor in front of Gu Chen. If it wasn't for the delay due to a series of incidents, Zi Tong would have been arranged to die by Gu Chen long ago.

Even so, she should start now.

"You should know why I called you here."

Standing high above, Gu Chen looked at Zi Tong who was half kneeling on the ground and said softly.

Zitong's head lowered a little, and said:
"Yes, subordinates know."

"Go to the dead land to explore the way, try to find out the news about the dead land stone and the blue Bianhua, and when the time is right, we will go to meet you."

"Young master...Your Majesty, are you going to die too?"

"Did I allow you to ask me questions?"

Gu Chen asked coldly.

Zitong was silent for a moment and didn't speak anymore.

Gu Chen stopped looking at her, and casually threw down a few B-grade treasures brought by Secretary Pinghu, and said:

"Bringing these rare treasures may enhance your survivability in the dead land. The time limit I give you is one year. After one year, I will bring someone into the dead land to join you. I hope you will not let me down."

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

Zitong took the strange treasure and left under Gu Chen's signal.

When she came out of Eternal Night City, Zitong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Previously, Zitong did something wrong, which resulted in losing her favor in front of Gu Chen, and was even ignored by Gu Chen and stopped calling her, which made Zitong think that she had lost her use value.

The most uncomfortable thing is not to be treated indifferently, but to be ignored.

After using the dirt to reincarnate and meet her friend Tang Yumeng again, Zitong regained the idea of ​​living, wanted to do better, and wanted to make up for her past mistakes in front of Gu Chen.

But Gu Chen's ignorance made Zi Tong unable to find a chance to make up for her mistakes.

And now, the opportunity has come.

"Yo, are you leaving?"

Outside the palace compound, Shan Teng leaned against the wall of the inner courtyard and asked Zi Tong.

Now that it was night, they could appear in the outside world openly, and Shan Teng could wait outside for Zi Tong.

Otherwise, give Shanto ten courages, and he would not dare to appear here when there is sunshine.

Looking at Shanteng, Zitong relaxed a lot for some reason, she nodded and said:

"Prepare to die, what are you doing here?"

"Wait for you."

"What do you mean?"

"I have asked His Majesty, I will go with you."

Shantou grinned.

Zi Tong was slightly stunned, she looked at Shan Teng a few more times, and said:

"You don't have to be with me."

Unlike Zitong, although Shanteng was punished for his previous actions, some of the things he did afterwards, including the clue to find the blue Bana flower this time, made great contributions in front of Gu Chen.

With such achievements, there is no need for Shanto to take risks with Zitong.

Even if the two are both Shangxian, there is still a difference between Shangxian and Shangxian, at least now in front of Gu Chen, Shandeng obviously has a higher status than Zitong.

Yamato grinned and replied:
"It's boring, and His Majesty has countless combat powers under his hands. One more than me is not too many, and one less than me is quite a lot."

"Death is dangerous."

"Of course I know it's dangerous. That's fine. You don't have to persuade me. Your Majesty has already agreed for me to go with you. I'm waiting for you here just to tell you."

Shantou said with a smile.

Shantou's smile was still ugly, but Zitong felt that his smile was very pleasing to the eye at the moment.

Opening her mouth, Zi Tong didn't know what to say.

Shantou came over and patted Zitong on the shoulder and said:
"Okay, let's have a drink while we have time. We have been working under His Majesty's hands for so long, and we don't seem to have fully enjoyed it yet."

"Well, please."

"Hey hey, then I'm going to Jiaofang Division."

"……Row."

Zitong and Shantou left side by side like good buddies, gradually drifting away.

During the Twelve Ghost Months, the relationship between each other is not so harmonious, but it is also not very good.

Only Zitong has a good relationship with Shanteng and Baicha. Perhaps it is because they have cooperated before that they become partners.

Now that everything is over, Shantou is bored, and it makes sense to go to the deadland to explore with his companions.

And with one more person by his side, Zitong's trip to the dead would perhaps go more smoothly.

……

Zi Tong and Shan Teng didn't stay in the capital for long, and they set off to die.

Gu Chen and the others stayed in the capital to deal with the mess left by Emperor Qi'an.

This has been going on for half a year.

When there were no enemies left, Gu Chen realized that time passed quickly. In the whole half a year after Zitong left, Gu Chen didn't encounter any other troubles.

The disaster in Yuezhou was resolved, and the aftermath of the Great War in Beijing was almost handled properly.

Although there were many rumors of ghosts in some places in Jingzhou, after Pinghu Division went there, those rumors disappeared.

Those are all ghosts that fled out after the ghost gate was opened. Although many ghosts were wiped out in the previous war, some fish that slipped through the net were still wandering in Jingzhou.

But these are all minor issues. The fusion of the ghost world and the human world starts from the center of the capital.

The farther you are from the capital, the more difficult it is for the ghosts to move, especially in the daytime. Like the ghosts under Gu Chen, these ghosts are afraid of the sun and cannot appear in the daytime. So as long as you master the method, it is extremely simple to eliminate these ghosts .

The calamity is gone, and the weirdness is actually not as much as imagined. After Gu Chen ascended the throne, Da Qi was almost at peace inside and outside.

But at the same time, Gu Chen's summoning formation is no longer charged. Eliminating ghosts cannot replenish Gu Chen's summoning formation. It wasn't fully charged either.

Not even a chance to summon it once.

It may be that the fusion with the Tianji Jade Box last time broadened the energy of Gu Chen's summoning formation, which is why it is so difficult to fill the summoning formation.

However, it is precisely because of this that the super-scale character Kuchiki Byakuya was summoned after spending two summoning opportunities.

It can only be said that there are gains and losses.

"You can try to summon a character that doesn't consume much energy."

In the inner courtyard of the palace, Gu Chen looked at the summoning formation and thought to himself.

After the summoning formation is upgraded, in addition to continuing to accumulate energy to summon more powerful characters, you can also choose to use part of the energy to summon an ordinary character.

The characters summoned in this way may not have too much power, but there are still some advantages in some places.

Gu Chen thought of his own psychological problems, and thought about summoning a role similar to a psychiatrist.

only……

For a moment, Gu Chen couldn't think of any well-known psychiatrists in anime or games.

And just summoning an ordinary person, to be reasonable, is a bit of a waste of my summoning energy.

After thinking about it, Gu Chen still gave up on this idea, and turned his head to continue communicating with his own Zanpakutō.

It has been half a year since Gu Chen got the Zanpakuto and started to unravel it.

In the past six months, Gu Chen also saw the appearance of his own Zanpakuto, but he couldn't show the Zanpakuto to make him succumb.

In other words, until now, Gu Chen still couldn't solve it.

On the other hand, the abilities in other aspects have been sufficiently improved.

After mastering the ghost way, Shunpo can already be used initially, Gu Chen has also learned the method of using spiritual pressure to stand in the air, and his flower breath has also been further refined.

Only the 'white fight', that is, the method of close combat, Gu Chen didn't know much about it.

But Gu Chen doesn't really need these punching skills, and when it really comes to that kind of punching skills, Gu Chen will definitely not be able to fight.

After all, Gu Chen's strongest point lies in the godhead of Cupid and the breath of flowers. If he encounters an enemy who can't even use these, then the final white fight will probably be enough to beat him.

Therefore, Gu Chen has always focused on his main ability.

Everything will not be as good as the same.

Today, Gu Chen still communicated with Zanpakuto as usual, and Danzo also came to Gu Chen to report the current big and small things in front of Gu Chen as usual.

Gu Chen didn't know much about these things, so he handed them over to Danzo. He only cared about one other thing:
"Zi Tong and Shan Teng, haven't there been news yet?"

"Never, they seem to have disappeared."

Danzo shook his head.

Three months ago, Zi Tong and Shan Teng broke contact with Gu Chen.

First of all, Gu Chen couldn't lock the location of the two of them, nor could he observe the psychological fluctuations of the two of them through the blood connection with the two of them.

Then Danzo used the psychic beast to try to get in touch with the two, but failed to contact the two.

They seem to have disappeared from this world without a trace.

And before they disappeared, the last words that came back were that they had reached the 'Wall of No Return', that is, the periphery of the dead zone.

"It seems that the place of death should be the same place as the fairyland, and it does not belong to the human world."

Gu Chen deduced.

Gu Chen had only experienced the loss of contact with his subordinates once, and that was the time when Gu Yu strayed into the Immortal Kingdom.

That time was the same as now, Gu Chen couldn't contact Gu Yu, couldn't sense her location, and couldn't capture Gu Yu's psychological fluctuations.

So if the incident this time is almost the same as the last incident, it is enough to prove that the place where the dead land and Daqi are located is not in the same world.

"Is Your Majesty still going there?"

Danzo asked suddenly.

Now that it has been confirmed that the dead land does not belong to the human world, and it is impossible to determine whether the person who enters can come out, then entering the dead land has become a very dangerous thing.

Danzo's suggestion is to try not to put Gu Chen in danger. Even if he explores the dead place, he should create more ghosts and let those ghosts enter the dead place to explore.

Ghosts are different from people. As long as they are not exposed to sunlight, they are almost immortal.

Under the suppression of a huge number, some ghosts will eventually come out of the dead place and report the situation of the dead place, so there is no need for Gu Chen to take risks.

"Let's talk about it, there is still half a year to go, wait and see, maybe there will be news from Zitong."

Gu Chen didn't immediately accept Danzo's suggestion, but he didn't immediately deny it either.

At the beginning, Gu Chen set the time for Zitong to be one year. After one year, if there is still no news about Zitong and Shanteng, then Gu Chen will consider whether to die or not.

For now, let's deal with Daqi's affairs first.

Seeing that Gu Chen didn't intend to change his mind, Danzo couldn't persuade him anymore.

He put the matter on hold for the time being, and said another thing:
"Now... civil and military officials are advising His Majesty to accept a concubine. Look..."

"I'm only 15 years old, even if I'm only sixteen after my birthday, don't be in such a hurry, right?"

Hearing what Danzang said, Gu Chen couldn't help frowning.

The former concubines of Emperor Qi'an, Gu Chen sent them away a long time ago and let them go back. After all, Gu Chen has no interest in taking over, nor does he have the idea of ​​killing these concubines, letting them go back to their respective homes is the best choice.

So now the harem is empty, except for the maids and eunuchs, almost no one is there.

Jiebiao Danxi, the 'Ouchi Chief', took it easy, and once again became an existence like a salted fish.

Gu Chen didn't even think about accepting a concubine, so he just let her go. The whole harem was harmonious, and there was an aura called 'salted fish' from inside to outside.

Gu Chen thinks this is very good, without having to think about the problem of the harem, he can relax a lot.

But obviously civil and military officials don't think so.

Just as a country cannot be without a king for a day, it is impossible for a harem to be without a king for a day.

Even though Gu Chen is now an emperor with a different surname, he has never thought of changing the country's name, but since the royal family's surname is already Gu, he naturally has to find a way to spread the branches and leaves for the Gu family.

Only by enshrining the mother of the country, giving birth to a dragon son, and establishing a prince can the court be stabilized.

Emperor Qi'an didn't have a prince before, but at least he had Zhao Muqiu.

In case something really happened to Emperor Qi'an, although there was no precedent for a woman to be emperor in Qi, there was in the previous dynasties, and some previous dynasties also had female emperors, so it would not be impossible to make Zhao Muqiu the emperor.

But now that Gu Chen has no children, if anything happens to Gu Chen in the future, the Qi country will be in complete chaos.

And after a while, Gu Chen will go to explore the dead place...

"For people in this world, at the age of 16, they can already start a family and start a career, not to mention that you are still the king of a country now."

Danzo said with a smile.

Gu Chen's age looks young, but in a remote mountain village in this world, a boy of this age is probably already the father of several children.

And after a while, Gu Chen will celebrate his 16th birthday. In this world, this is the standard of adulthood. Gu Chen, who has grown up, of course also has the qualifications to get married.

Danzang did not forget that in the Gu family, Gu Chen also had a fiancée named Tao Qianqian.

If Gu Chen has no objection to this Tao Qianqian, then Gu Chen can marry Tao Qianqian after his 16th birthday.

"Get married..."

Rubbing his forehead, Gu Chen actually didn't want to.

His current energy is all focused on the two things of Zanpakuto, Swastika and death. Things like getting married will drag Gu Chen's energy.

But he and Tao Qianqian did have a marriage contract, and... to be honest, Gu Chen didn't even have a girlfriend from his previous life to the present, so he was indeed very curious about getting married.

After thinking about it, Gu Chen decided to let nature take its course, and said to Danzo:
"Let the Ministry of Rituals come up with a charter. After I pass the coming-of-age ceremony, I will hold a wedding and marry Sister Qianqian. By the way, remember to keep them as short as possible. I hate things that are too troublesome."

Anyway, now that everything is over, Tao Qianqian is a rare person who is really good to Gu Chen, so it seems that there is nothing wrong with taking this opportunity to marry her.

Thinking this way in his heart, Gu Chen picked up the Zanpakuto and closed his eyes to communicate with him again.

If you want to use the swastika solution, you need to continue to work hard.
