"What is this wound?""Ah it's just a slight scratch."Fu Jiu pulled the back of Zhang Xiang's hand even more desperately hoping to see the wound clearly. Fu Jiu remembered the characteristics of the scratches very well, so he was silent for a moment to make sure while thinking. 'This is the scratch of a red ghost, why did Zhang Xiang get this scratch?'Then Xiang Hua who was beside Fu Jiu was curious about the wound on Zhang Xiang's hand, he immediately jumped in surprise seeing the wound."Master! Isn't this a scratch-""Ekhem! Why did you get injured? Did someone attack you?" asked Fu Jiu, cutting Xiang Hua off because he knew what would come out of his younger brother's mouth.The reason is that the one who attacked Zhang Xiang's residence was his surrogate's ghost army, but until this moment Fu Jiu did not know that Zhang Xiang was the person he was looking for. But seeing the wound on Zhang Xiang's hand immediately made him a little suspicious.Zhang Xiang pulled his hand back fr
Later that night, Zhang Xiang and Xiang Hua are fast asleep in the room where they have been staying for the past few days. While Jin Long himself was still not asleep, he was still sitting around drinking wine with Fu Jiu enjoying the beautiful and cold night. The quiet atmosphere makes the room look creepy, especially since the only lighting is a lantern, which is not very bright, making the atmosphere even more horrifying.Fu Jiu placed the glass of wine on the wooden table. He shook his head repeatedly while supporting his head. Previously, Fu Jiu rarely drank, even if he drank only at certain events such as meetings, meetings or other inauguration events. This is the first time Fu Jiu has drank in large quantities, so it's only natural that he feels a tremendous dizziness in his head.Jin Long, on the other hand, continues to pour drinks into the glass without even feeling dizzy because wine is his friend. Without wine, he might not have been able to survive, because it had become
Sunlight stabbed through the tunnel in the square room where the four of them slept. This morning, Zhang Xiang and Xiang Hua were still fast asleep on their respective beds. Meanwhile, their uncle was already doing his usual activities in the courtyard outside. Jin Long is preparing food for all of them, while Fu Jiu is cleaning up the rest of their drinks from last night. Seeing the two teenagers still fast asleep, Fu Jiu stops what he's doing and stares at the two of them in astonishment. Fu Jiu shook his head at the sight of the two of them.Fu Jiu slowly put down the cloth he was using to clean the wooden table, and walked over to Zhang Xiang and Xiang Hua on the bed not far from where he was cleaning. As soon as he arrived beside the two of them, Fu Jiu stood up straight and placed both hands on his waist.Fu Jiu chuckled softly. "Tsk! Tsk! Why are these kids still late at this hour?" he muttered while looking at the two who were still asleep.Then Fu Jiu turned Xiang Hua's body t
"Zhang Xiang! Don't you dare hand over the jade key!""No Zhang Xiang! Uncle, please don't give it to them, they are bad people.""Zhang Xiang, don't mind uncle. It's better for you to go away now, this place is very dangerous for you son," said the first uncle.But Zhang Xiang did not heed the first uncle's command or the second uncle's prohibition. Zhang Xiang turned his head to glance at the first uncle, after which Zhang Xiang turned his gaze towards the scorpion leader. He looked very creepy looking at Zhang Xiang with emphasis.Zhang Xiang did not feel scared at all under the young man's gaze, instead he challenged the young man while casting a fierce gaze. They stared at each other, until finally, the young man known as the Scorpion Chief let out his words."Heh! Little kid! Hurry up and give me the jade key, no more drama!" He said in a stern tone.Zhang Xiang clenched his hands tightly. He did not accept being called a child, Zhang Xiang himself felt that he was a grown man. I
Zhang Xiang ran out of Hua San's mountain residence to meet Jin Long. Zhang Xiang is now not afraid of the outside world, he is now actually very brave because staying with Jin Long for a few days made him realize that being a man should not be weak. Moreover, almost every day Zhang Xiang sees the activities Jin Long does, so he can see firsthand how to be a real man who must be guided to be strong, able to face all kinds of trials, tests and so on. We must be able to solve our own problems, as a man we must be brave and independent.Not only Zhang Xiang's awareness, but the education that Jin Long slowly began to teach Zhang Xiang little by little he could accept well. Whereas before, Zhang Xiang felt a little dislike and objection to the teachings given by Jin Long. According to Zhang Xiang, the teachings given by Jin Long were very harsh and made him feel a little depressed. But over time Zhang Xiang began to accept it well. Even now, Zhang Xiang feels dissatisfied with Jin Long's t
"Chief what is this for?"The scorpion leader instantly stopped his steps and turned his body to face his follower. Wen Xeking glared at his follower, slowly bringing his body closer to his follower."What do you mean?" he asked in a stern tone.The follower instantly lowered his head while shaking his head slowly. He did not dare when the chairman had issued his stern and sinister tone, because when he spoke in his demonic tone, it must have indicated that Wen Hexing was angry. Not long after, a young man wearing a black robe appeared. Hearing the commotion, the young man who had been conducting activities in the room immediately came out.It was Rong-rong, Wen Hexing's younger brother. Seeing his angry brother, Rong-rong approached him."What's wrong, brother?" he asked.Wen Hexing turned his body to face his younger brother. "Look, I managed to get a fragment of the blue jade key," Wen Hexing said, pointing it at Rong-rong.Suddenly, Rong-rong frowned. His gaze focused on the select
After finishing accompanying his uncle to eat at the restaurant, Zhang Xiang chose to go back to the Hua San Mountain residence at the behest of his uncle Jin Long who reminded Zhang Xiang about his uncle being sick because he missed him at that time. Jin Long certainly did not want to be blamed again someday just because Zhang Xiang came with him. Because Zhang Xiang still has a family and certainly when leaving or deciding to come with him, he must at least give permission to his uncle first so as not to make them worry. Moreover, his uncle had already been suspicious of Jin Long thinking that Jin Long was a bad person.Even though his intention was to help and assist, but who would have thought that his intention was not appreciated at all by Zhang Xiang's uncle. This made him feel a little displeased with Zhang Xiang's uncle, so to avoid something unwanted later, Jin Long chose to avoid him by giving some advice for Zhang Xiang to return home.Jin Long is indeed a person who can con
The moon was very bright in the sky, and the stars were scattered all over the sky. The cold breeze was not to be outdone. On this cold night, Jin Long sat pensively under the bright moonlight. A bottle of wine became his companion in the silence of the night. As if not to be left behind, it was the wine that kept him alive. Without the wine who knows what would have happened to Jin Long as his condition weakened over time. At least the wine became his strength in the middle of this winter.I don't know how many glasses Jin Long has drunk, but it's clear that tonight he will stay up late to finish his stock of wine from yesterday, only to buy new stock tomorrow. A few seconds later Fu Jiu arrives and joins Jin Long sitting in front of the porch looking up at the sky.The two of them were still silent, neither of them starting an argument first. Until the next second, Jin Long turned his head toward Fu Jiu and offered her a glass of wine. But Fu Jiu politely refused. Getting a refusal f
The next day, Zhang Xiang was surprised by how crowded the Hua San Mountain Temple was. He had just woken up to go to the temple to wash his body and get some food for his uncle and Xiao Hua, but instead he saw a lot of people gathered in the main hall which was usually used for inter-sect meetings. Zhang Xiang was curious about the event, so he chose to go inside and look for the temple servants. There he saw that they were busy preparing the banquet, they were also cooking a big meal. Not just servants, but warriors and royal soldiers were busy removing his father's historical statues. Zhang Xiang actually wanted to know more, but remembering that his uncle and Xiao Hua were still sleeping in the temple, he immediately went to meet them.By the time Zhang Xiang had just arrived in front of the temple, uncle Yebaiyi suddenly called out his name. Apparently they had all woken up, and now they were tidy as if they had just taken a bath. Zhang Xiang immediately ran over to them."Uncle,
"Xiao Hua, why did uncle take so long to return? Did you find the hanging ghost?""I don't know Fen Lian, maybe uncle is trying to find the hanging ghost. To be honest, I'm also very disappointed with him because the master has been trying to be kind to the hanging ghost, and I also know that the master is actually a good leader, always complying with his disciple's requests. It's just that the hanging ghost took advantage of the master's kindness for his own interests, I really didn't expect it," Xiao Hua said feeling disappointed.Zhang Xiang patted Xiao Hua's shoulder lightly. He knew what was going through Xiao Hua's mind right now, but what the heck, everything had already happened. No one wants to be betrayed by their own troops, but in reality, it happened."Calm down Xiao Hua, everything will definitely be fine. Leave everything to uncle.""You'll see when I meet the hanging ghost, I'll make sure he dies by my hand!" Xiao Hua said angrily to the hanging ghost.It wasn't long b
"Never mind, it's useless for you to fight and accomplish nothing. Besides, shouldn't Jin Long trust Fu Jiu since you know each other so well?" Uncle Yebaiyi asked them all."How can I trust him when I've seen with my own eyes and head that his ghost is performing disturbing acts in other people's temples," Jin Long said, still annoyed with Fu Jiu.That made Fu Jiu shake his head lightly. "Whatever you say Jin Long, I don't want to get into trouble with you anymore! I just want to live peacefully and have many friends, if it was me who asked for the hanging ghost I wouldn't be here right now!"Jin Long fell silent. Indeed, what Fu Jiu said is true, if it was him who did everything, Fu Jiu would be monitoring there, even if he didn't do anything, he would be watching his troops. But he wasn't there at all, so his suspicion of Fu Jiu might not be true."Let's not make a fuss, I'm sick of hearing these insignificant arguments! I ask you to forget about all this and now all we have to do
"Feel this Jin Long!""Arrrgghhtt!!!""Damn it! You won't be able to kill me Fu Jiu! Believe me!" Jin Long said as he got back up."Oh yeah? I won't hesitate to make you die in my hands right now!" Fu Jiu said as he gripped his hands tightly.Soon the nails became long, and definitely very poisonous. Just like the ghost army with long and poisonous nails that had attacked Zhang Xiang back then, Fu Jiu also had those nails. Suddenly Jin Long bulged his eyes, he knew about these nails that they were very dangerous and could even kill people. But the person who has left will become a ghost just like him."Don't blame me if you will feel more pain than the pain of seven nails!" Fu Jiu said, pointing his hands at Jin Long.Fu Jiu started pointing his hands while bringing his body closer to Jin Long. While Jin Long himself was getting ready to face Fu Jiu who was about to make the attack on him, the two eyes met and both glowed with anger. Just as Fu Jiu was about to slice into Jin Long's c
"Jin Long! Watch what you say! I never ordered any hanging ghosts!""I don't believe it! There is no history of a perpetrator admitting his guilt," Jin Long replied firmly.Fu Jiu, who felt that he was being accused by Jin Long, clenched his hands hard, and stared at him with a fierce gaze. His patience is now so thin that every word that comes out of Jin Long's lips is like a burning ember that can make him feel burned by the fire of anger. It was the same feeling as when she first met Jin Long, a feeling of anger and hatred. And now for the umpteenth time she felt that disappointment again toward Jin Long.He had been known as an evil and cruel ghost because of his ability to control humans or demons. Even killing and turning ordinary people into ghosts just like her was a common thing for her. But after meeting Jin Long everything changed. From being the king of heartlessness, he has now become a kind-hearted ghost who cares about others."Fu Jiu, you better be honest with me now o
"Where is the hanging ghost?" asked Master Fu Jiu to the mourning ghost who was sitting on his bench."Sorry master, we don't know where he went, but we haven't seen him since yesterday," he said.F u Jiu was silent for a moment wondering about the whereabouts of the hanging ghost who had disappeared since receiving his punishment. Initially, he wanted to exterminate one of his ghosts, because he had made a fatal mistake. Betrayal cannot be forgiven, there is only one punishment he must receive, namely the death penalty. However, the grief ghost and others felt sorry if the hanging ghost had to be destroyed, so they helped in the treatment of internal injuries given by Fu Jiu.Fu Jiu has received everything well, including the treatment of the hanging ghost. But now he is now angered by him again because he has disappeared without saying goodbye to him. Moreover, many ghosts did not know the existence of this hanging ghost."Mourning ghost, go out and look for the hanging ghost until
"Do you have the jade key?""Is it uncle?" Asked Zhang Xiang as he reached for the blue jade key in his hand.Uncle Yebaiyi stared at the object in his hand. After that, he took the object from Zhang Xiang's hand, while Zhang Xiang himself had no problem with everything, he happily handed it over to the Yebaiyi uncle. Then he looked intently at the object that was already in his hand."The thing that many people are fighting over," he murmured softly.After that, Yebaiyi uncle gave the object back to Zhang Xiang and put it back on as the pendant of the necklace."Is the key genuine?" Uncle Jin Long asked.Yebaiyi uncle nodded. "That's right, it is genuine. Have you been to the martial arts storehouse?" Asked the uncle.Zhang Xiang shook his head innocently. "Never uncle, I don't even know where it is. I also didn't initially believe that this necklace was the jade key that people were looking for," he said innocently."From now on, take good care of the jade key. There's no need to go
"Who are you?""First uncle, it's better for you to rest now before we treat the wound on your chest."The first uncle dismissed Zhang Xiang's hand roughly. Suddenly, Zhang Xiang gasped in shock at his first uncle's rude action."What do you mean, uncle? Why are you pushing me away?" he asked.The first uncle looked at uncle Yebaiyi and uncle Jin Long with a displeased look, his face changed when uncle Yebaiyi pulled out the sharp object stuck in his chest earlier. Meanwhile, Uncle Yebaiyi and Jin Long, who heard this, remained silent while looking at the first uncle casually. After that, the first uncle clenched his hands tightly."How many times has uncle told you not to be friends with random people!"Zhang Xiang frowned. "So what?" he asked."Zhang Xiang, it's better to treat your uncle's wound first, afraid of infection later," said uncle Jin Long interjected.Zhang Xiang nodded. "Uncle-""Stop Zhang Xiang! I don't need your help!""But uncle-""Who are they? Why are you with the
"Damn demons!" Zhang Xiang screeched boldly."Brave little boy, I just want that jade key if you are willing to give it then I won't bother you anymore and I will release your first uncle, but if you still insist on keeping the key then be prepared to lose him forever,"Zhang Xiang was silent for a while. Until an action that managed to astonish him was the first uncle who received a sudden attack that made him shocked. A sharp object managed to pierce the first uncle's chest."Arrhh!!! First uncle!" Zhang Xiang shrieked loudly.The first uncle seemed to endure the pain until Zhang Xiang's hands were clenched perfectly while displaying his sharp gaze towards the enraged scorpion demon. But a few seconds later a hand managed to grab his wrist, as he turned his head it was the first uncle who grabbed his hand with difficulty."Uncle,"The first uncle smiled. Soon the scorpion demon looked down at himself with a satisfied smile at the sight of the tormented first uncle."Once again I giv
