A female child’s exclamation of surprise instantly made Zhang Chu’s few people come to their senses.
At this time, Hei Hui immediately stood up and made a move to run towards that room.
However, the Queen reached out and directly pulled Hei Hui back.
“Listen to the messenger’s orders!”The Queen said.
Hei Hui looked towards Zhang Chu.
Zhang Chu, on the other hand, murmured, “Don’t move, that child is not in danger.”
However, with that child’s cry of alarm, the other children should have woken up in fear as well.
That was when a chaotic sound came from within that room.
“Ghost!”
“What is it?”
“Beat it to death!”
Immediately after that, a banging sound came from those female dolls, as if they were fighting something.
In fact, these female dolls selected by the Queen this time, all had some cultivation, and were slightly able to defend themselves in the face of bizarre events.
“Still not going?”Hei Hui was a little anxious.
Zhang Chu, on the other hand, said in a low voice, “Wait for the green light to rise up into the sky before you go, otherwise, spooking the snakes might make my arrangement ineffective.”
Hearing Zhang Chu say that, Hei Hui immediately raised his head and looked at the sky not far away.
Finally, a flash of green light shot up into the sky, as if there were many emerald green bugs that flew into the sky.
At this moment, Zhang Chu hurriedly said, “Quickly go see how the children are doing.”
Hei Hui ran the fastest, her forceful step was dozens of metres, and as if she was flying, she swooped down to that room.
The door of the room was slammed open.
The children’s surprised voices came, “General Hei Hui!”
“Great, General Hei Hui is here!”
Zhang Chu’s few people then arrived.
At this time, Hades Spirit directly stepped forward and checked the children’s physical conditions.
Soon, Hei Ling was pleasantly surprised, “They are not injured, and they do not even have a loss of qi or blood.”
Hei Hui, on the other hand, hurriedly asked, “Children, what have you encountered?”
At this moment, a relatively older child spoke up, “Just now, when I was sleeping, I felt something touching my face, and I woke up all of a sudden.”
“What did you see?”The queen asked.
The boy replied, “I saw a ghost!”
“A ghost?”
The child nodded his head vigorously, “Well, it was a ghost, half of his face had no flesh left, it was bones, and the flesh on the other half of his face was rotten, it was horrible.”
Zhang Chu, on the other hand, had a stirring in his heart and asked, “What you saw, was a ghost in human form?”
“Yes, it looked very much like a human, wearing tattered armour on its body and an armour-like hat.”
“Yet, it was a ghost.”
The queen couldn’t help but ask, “You fought with it?”
This female child said, “After I was scared awake, the others were also woken up, we tried to run at first, but we realised that it seemed like there was no road around us, it was pitch black.”
“Then, we started fighting with it, and it didn’t manage to beat us.”
Zhang Chu nodded slightly, “It’s a ghost hitting the wall, the children are trapped in the room, if we don’t open the door, they might never be able to get out with their own strength.”
The Queen looked unsightly, “Messenger, could it be that, in our world, there is an inexplicable ghost that is absorbing the yang energy of those children?”
Zhang Chu nodded, “Right!”
“Then what should be done?”Several people looked towards Zhang Chu.
Zhang Chu then spoke, “Don’t worry, that thing, it’s already been tracked, as long as I do a little bit of magic, I’ll be able to find it.”
At this time, Zhang Chu said to Hei Hui, “Hei Hui, go fetch a basin of water.”
Hei Hui nodded, and soon, she brought a basin of water.
At this time, Zhang Chu said to a few children, “Children, see if the symbols in your hands are still there?”
One child looked at his palm and frowned immediately after, “It’s gone.”
Another child said, “One of mine is still there, the other is gone.”
“Both of mine are there!”
“Good!”Zhang Chu said, “Anyone who has both symbols gone, come over and wash your hands.”
At this moment, three children came forward and washed their hands.
After washing their hands, Zhang Chu then spoke, “Alright children, there’s nothing more for you to do, go back.”
The Queen then spoke, “Someone come, tally down the names of the several children, give each of them a credit, and when they reach adulthood, they can directly join the dynasty as officials.”
“Yes!”A guard promised with great envy.
At this time, Zhang Chu then held a water basin and stepped on the Big Dipper, dipping his hand in some water and sprinkling it in the air, and opened his mouth, “Qiankun Wuji, Ten Thousand Miles of Tracking, now!”
As the incantation was shouted, within Zhang Chu’s body, a spiritual energy was also stimulated.
When Zhang Chu finished shouting the incantation, some water droplets suddenly flashed brightly in the void and transformed into several turquoise fireflies.
When Zhang Chu saw these fireflies, he immediately frowned, “Fire red belongs to ghosts, turquoise belongs to corpses, this is …… Corpse Transformation!”
“Corpse Change?”The women were somewhat at a loss for words.
Zhang Chu then spoke, “Queen, bring some soldiers and follow these fireflies, today, we should be able to find the root cause.”
“Good!”The Queen agreed and told Hei Hui to go and order the soldiers.
Soon, Hei Hui brought over a hundred female warriors and arrived in front of Zhang Chu.
Zhang Chu, on the other hand, gently waved his hand, and those fireflies suspended in the void immediately spread their wings and flew.
At this moment, the Queen, Zhang Chu, Hei Hui, Hei Tang, as well as Hei Ling all followed, all wanting to see just what it was that had affected their world for so many years.
Slowly, the turquoise fireflies flew out of the city and headed towards the wilderness.
Zhang Chu saw that on this wilderness, there were already women who had risen early to work, their world, likewise, needed people to labour hard to produce food and medicinal herbs.
The Queen ignored them and continued to lead the soldiers, following those fireflies forward.
Not long after, several majestic ancient tombs appeared in the distance.
Seeing those ancient tombs, the Queen instantly changed colour slightly, “It can’t be an existence in those ancient tombs, right?”
Hades Soup also looked unsightly, “If it’s an existence in there, I’m afraid …… it’ll be difficult to resolve.”
“Why?”Zhang Chu asked.
At this moment, the Queen said, “Our Water Burial lineage is actually the tomb guardians of the dynasty, and our duty is to guard the tomb for the dynasty forever.”
Hades Soup, on the other hand, sighed, “We are not qualified, to open the ancient tomb.”
Zhang Chu looked odd, “No, it’s threatening your entire world, what do you still need to guard the tomb for?”
“Besides, that dynasty, hasn’t it already disappeared? Who else are you going to guard the tomb for?”
The Queen said, “Guarding the tomb for the dynasty, this is unchangeable.”
Zhang Chu frowned, a little puzzled in his heart.
However, right at this moment, in Zhang Chu’s mind, there came the voice of Kui Shan Boast, “Master, if they want to continue to be the king of this world and continue to rule this world, they must protect these great tombs.”
In fact, as Zhang Chu entered this world, Zhang Chu had already given Kui Shan Yan a certain amount of permissions to them, allowing them to feel the outside world and communicate with themselves at any time.
Now that he heard Kui Shan Dang open his mouth, Zhang Chu immediately asked, “Why must they protect these great tombs?”
Kui Shan Dang said, “Because, the reason why the people of this world recognise the Queen as the Queen is because, she has a nominal legitimacy.”
“Expectedly, her family, for generations, has made it their duty to guard the dynasty’s ancient tombs, and the people of this dynasty, too, feel that all the people of this world exist for the sake of guarding the ancient tombs.”
“If, the Queen no longer guards the Ancient Tomb, that would be a betrayal of what this world exists for.”
“Therefore, if she wants to maintain her rule, she must guard the Great Tomb, not to mention opening the Ancient Tomb, even if the Ancient Tomb is dirty, she must clean it from time to time.”
“Once the ancient tomb needs to be opened, hehe, she definitely refuses to do so.”
Zhang Chu nodded in his heart, and somewhat understood the Queen’s situation.
However, what put Zhang Chu’s mind at ease was that those flying insects, did not fly towards those luxurious ancient tombs.
Zhang Chu clearly felt that after passing by the ancient tombs, the Queen was clearly relieved.
However, right at that moment, those flying insects, flew towards a stone tomb.
That stone tomb, was obviously much simpler than the other ancient tombs, not luxurious at all.
In the end, those flying insects, unexpectedly landed on top of the tombstone of the stone tomb.
When the crowd saw this, they looked at each other.
“It’s him! The tomb of the Third Generation State Master!”The Queen’s tone was heavy, revealing much anger and coldness.
