I should marry the traitor

Chapter 216: The Earth Corpse King Appears
As soon as Li Changge finished speaking, Luo Bo's face instantly turned red: "Your Majesty? Are you saying that my wife can still be saved?"

"Calm down, I haven't finished yet."

However, Luo Bo knelt down suddenly, his face flushed red. "As long as Your Majesty can save my wife, I will leave everything to Your Majesty. I am willing to work like a cow or a horse in this life to repay Your Majesty's kindness."

Seeing Luo Bo kneeling down excitedly, Li Changge frowned.

He likes women to kneel down, but he has no interest in men kneeling down.

Daqian is not the Qing Dynasty, and ministers also need integrity, okay? Even Baimei, as his retainer Li Changge, rarely kneels.

"Stand up and listen to me. I didn't ask you to kneel!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Bo knew that he seemed to have displeased His Majesty, but even though he was experienced, he didn't understand what Li Changge was angry about.

Seeing Luo Bo standing up obediently, Li Changge slowly said: "The second choice I give you is that I will still help you recover your cultivation and save your two wives for you."

"Of course, this is not without conditions. You have to give your loyalty and ability."

"I will issue an edict to appoint you as the governor of Yizhou. From now on, I will be in charge of Yizhou."

"Of course you also know that Yizhou is not under the control of the court. What you need to do is to bring Yizhou back under my control. Do you understand?"

Saving your wife and getting a promotion in one go seems to have only advantages and no disadvantages, but it is actually quite difficult.

The current governor of Yizhou, Liu Yan, is 80% mixed-race. Having run Yizhou for many years, he has become a veritable local emperor of Yizhou and is not under the control of the imperial court at all.

Moreover, Liu Yan is completely different from the fake provincial governors like Tao Tao. The fighting power of the Zhangba Poisonous Snake bloodline is very strong. Liu Yan's strength is almost at the same level as Yan Niang and Wen Xiu, second only to more than 90% of the mixed-bloods.

It is actually quite difficult for Li Changge to find someone who can replace Liu Yan. It is not enough to be a governor of a state with just military power. Connections and reputation are indispensable.

And Luo Bo is the candidate that Li Changge values. Decades ago, Luo Bo was known as the great sage of Yizhou. Both his reputation and connections are better than Liu Yan's.

In addition to the righteousness of Li Changge bestowing him the title of Governor of Yizhou, and the popularity that Luo Bo had accumulated over the years, he also found his two medicine woman wives for him and restored his original strength that was comparable to that of the innate.

At this time, Luo Bo naturally had the weight to compete with Liu Yan in Yizhou. By then, Li Changge could use Luo Bo as a fulcrum to take back Yizhou with half the effort.

After hearing this, Luo Bo thought for a moment and understood Li Changge's intention.

Will he refuse?
of course not.

Although Luo Bo was indifferent to fame and fortune and had no interest in officialdom, and even politely declined Emperor Qianling's invitation to him, how could he possibly refuse when it came to his wife?

"I understand. Although I am old and feeble, I am willing to serve Your Majesty."

"But, can I really find my wife?"

Luo Bo was very sensible and seemed ready to work for Li Changge, and Li Changge told him frankly.

"The Earth Corpse King is not a true zombie, because it did not evolve from the corpse of a human or monster."

"To be precise, the Earth Corpse King is actually the resentment bred by the dead earth."

"So the people who are swallowed by the Earth Corpse King actually return to dust in the Earth Corpse King's belly."

"If it was a living person, of course he couldn't still be alive. The earth has been turned into soil, and only bones are left."

"But your two wives are medicine men. You should understand what this means, right?"

Listening to Li Changge's narration, Luo Bo's breathing became a little faster. The medicine man's body had been condensed, and if it was buried in the soil, it would not decay within a thousand years.

In other words, Vanguard and Hot Wheels are indeed not dead, but are just trapped in the belly of the Earth Corpse King?

"Your Majesty, please help save my wife. I am willing..."

"Hmm?" "I am willing to serve your majesty at my utmost."

"good."

……

……

……

Looking for the entrance to the mine of the Earth Corpse King, Li Changge knew where it was, but he still had to find Luo Bo.

First of all, both the Wukun Pearl and Luo Bo himself are the props and subordinates that Li Changge needs.

Secondly, he couldn't find the way.

It was indeed no problem to find the entrance to the mine, but he was a little confused about the complicated passages inside the mine.

After all, he had only done this mission a few times, so it was normal to get lost if he didn't let the NPC lead the way.

But it was completely different with Lobo leading the way. Since it was his wife, Lobo did not dare to be careless. He carefully examined every intersection. Soon, there were no remaining salt mines in sight, and the feeling of the earth became heavier and heavier.

Luo Bo cleared out some poisonous insects and wild beasts along the way, and as he felt the increasingly strong aura of the earth, he spoke:

"If I am not mistaken, we are about to reach an area where we can mine rock gas."

"But it's still very far away from where the Earth Corpse King is."

"The Earth Corpse King is in the place where the rock gas is most concentrated in the entire mine."

“There, even if we use the Wukun Pearl to block part of the Earth Corpse King’s means, we can weaken its power.”

"But the environment is too suitable for the Earth Corpse King. He is still a monster that cannot be underestimated. Everyone should not be careless."

Following Lobo's instructions, the group moved forward, weaving around, passing through the long and narrow cave, and then walked hundreds of steps to reach the deepest part.

The huge and open mine suddenly appeared in everyone's sight. The rock gas was so thick that it seemed to be condensed into substance, which shocked An Xinlin and Qu Yiyi.

Although this rock gas has little effect on them, and the side effect of making them ugly makes them absolutely reject it, there is definitely no shortage of buyers for this thing.

An Xinlin reached out and touched the rich rock gas. He was almost certain that this was the place with the richest rock gas, but after looking around, he did not find any trace of the Earth Corpse King.

"Luo Bo, where is the Earth Corpse King you mentioned?"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, please take out the Wukun Pearl."

Li Changge also knew that they had arrived. He took out the Wu Kun Pearl from his arms, and the surrounding rock gas gathered uncontrollably into the Wu Kun Pearl.

At the same time, Li Changge's acquired true energy activated the Wu Kun Pearl, and he immediately gained the ability to control the surrounding land.

However, he could clearly feel that there was a large piece of curled up "land" that could not be controlled even if he activated the Wukun Pearl.

At the moment when Li Changge controlled the Wukun Pearl, the mine began to shake violently, as terrifying as a dragon turning over.

Then, eight huge stone pillars were suddenly pulled up from the ground, and then connected to some smaller stone pillars with some kind of joints. Then, a huge ochre-colored monster emerged from the ground.

It has eight huge legs like a crab, and on these eight legs is a slightly terrifying upper body of a human. The huge belly is a bit disgusting, and there is no hair on the face, only hideous lines.

There is no doubt that you are the Earth Corpse King!
