Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Gu Xu did not respond immediately.He stood quietly, thinking about what he needed to do to get out of the danger in front of him without hurting innocent people.

Just now on the bed in Liangzhou Mansion, he did not fall asleep completely, but still focused on the "astral chart", paying close attention to every move of the Daqi court, especially Xiao Zeyao's ghost body, for fear that he might be secretly watching behind his back. Make small moves.

Unsurprisingly.

After Xiao Zeyao left Luojing City, he immediately rushed to Yishui County, threatening the lives of the entire county's civilians and asking Gu Xu to meet him alone without any helpers.

At first glance, Xiao Zeyao seemed to be talking to himself in the air in a deserted shadow.

But he obviously already knew Gu Xu's ability to see into the world——

He expected that everything he did would definitely come into Gu Xu's sight.

If Gu Xu was really the Ziwei Emperor who succeeded in seizing the body, he would not pay attention to what Xiao Zeyao did, let alone take any countermeasures, and would just treat it as a noisy fly.

After all, the real Emperor Ziwei is a cold and heartless person at heart.

Although he often said things like "all the people in the wilderness are my people".

But it is absolutely impossible for him to put himself in danger for ordinary people who are not relatives.

But Gu Xu is different.

In his eyes, the tens of thousands of ordinary people in Yishui are not just cold numbers, but living faces.

Some of these people had greeted him warmly, some had chased him to sell goods to him, some had cheered him after he had made many meritorious deeds, and some had cheered him after he had expelled evil spirits. He burst into tears of gratitude...

Every detail of his past interactions with them is deeply imprinted in Gu Xu's mind, and can never be erased because of his gift of photographic memory.

If these people died because of him, Gu Xu thought he would feel very guilty.

Therefore, when Xiao Zeyao declared war on him, he did not hesitate to use the power of "Qiankun" to instantly reach the quiet and cold alleys of Yishui County from the soft and fragrant big bed.

With the astrolabe in hand and the power in hand, and having recently asked Luo Chuan for a "substitute bracelet" to wear on his wrist, Gu Xu was extremely confident in his ability to escape.

Even if he couldn't defeat Xiao Zeyao's ghost body head-on, he was sure to escape intact.

"That guy in the palace wants your life," Xiao Zeyao's ghost body paused for a moment and continued, "And from my standpoint, I don't want to see a rebel who calls himself a god, arrogant in my territory all day long.

"As long as you obediently offer the head on your neck, I will lift this death curse."

Hearing his words, Gu Xu smiled faintly and said in a sarcastic tone: "As the emperor of Da Qi, you use your own people as hostages to threaten a rebel. Don't you think it's ridiculous? Are you waiting at the bottom of a well? You have been here for so long that your brain is moldy? Do you think you are worthy of being the monarch of Daqi?"

While talking, Gu Xu was thinking about how to break the curse, and using the astrolabe, he sent a message to Luochuan's bronze mirror.

Xiao Zeyao did not allow him to find helpers.But he can use the "God-Inviting Spell" to temporarily borrow the power of others for his own use.

Not long ago, the remnant soul of Emperor Ziwei used his body and Luochuan's true energy to successfully defeat the "fierce god" level ghost Kongxuan Sanren.

Luochuan quickly responded.

He said that his true energy, like his person, belonged completely to the Emperor; it was his honor to be able to help the Emperor in battle.

With Luo Chuan's words, Gu Xu felt a little relieved.

Gu Xu has some understanding of the art of curses, but he is not proficient in it.

But Xiao Zeyao, who had been sealed at the bottom of the well for many years, what he did most every day was to curse Taishang Haotian and the unfair fate of the Daqi royal family for thousands of years.He was unable to cause direct harm to the will of Supreme Haotian occupying his body and throne, so he could only cast a curse secretly.

Although these curses could not harm Taishang Haotian's hair.

However, over time, Xiao Zeyao's curse skills gradually improved, and he has changed from the former heir to the throne who majored in "Dragon Heart Sutra" and paid attention to uprightness, into a ghost who is proficient in all kinds of vicious curses.

Gu Xu couldn't break his curse directly.

But he knew that the essence of the curse was a kind of cause and effect, a special connection between the caster and the victim.Having inherited the memory of Emperor Ziwei, he has an extremely deep and unique understanding of the law of cause and effect.Even a strong saint may not be able to match him in this aspect.

The moment his mind moved, part of the black cursed threads broke and dissipated into the void like smoke.

"The monarch of Da Qi?" Xiao Zeyao smiled coldly, "Oh, I am no longer the king."

After he finished speaking, his palms turned downward.

Yishui County is still silent.

But Gu Xu saw that in a bungalow at the end of the alley, a family of three - a young blacksmith, his wife and their just one-month-old son - had quietly stopped heartbeats and breathing.

It looked like they had entered a sweet dream and would never wake up again.

Only the black blood dripping from the corners of their mouths revealed the truth of their brutal murder.

Gu Xu frowned slightly, his expression solemn.

Xiao Zeyao is really ruthless in his actions, completely different from the villains in the story who like to talk nonsense.It is not easy to delay in front of him.

But at the same time, Gu Xu also concluded that Xiao Zeyao used the entire Yishui County as a threat to find him, not only because he wanted his life, but also wanted to get something else from him.

Otherwise, based on the apparent gap in realm between the two, Xiao Zeyao would directly kill him the moment they met.

"Then do you still want to change back?" Gu Xu calmed down his emotions and began to throw bait to the other party, "Do you still want to be a human again?

"You should know very well that with your current status, even if you successfully kill me, kill everyone in this county, and serve as a servant to Taishang Haotian, you will be sealed again into the deep well of the palace when you return. Loss of freedom.

"If you no longer regard yourself as the monarch of the Qi Dynasty, then compared to me, the will of Taishang Haotian is your real enemy.

"We have the same enemy, so we can choose to cooperate."

The black sky mask of Xiao Zeyao's ghost body trembled slightly, as if he was faintly moved by Gu Xu's words.

But the eyes under his mask were still dark and as cold as ice.

"you think too much."

As he spoke, he turned his palm again and cast a death curse.

Gu Xu narrowed his eyes.

He hasn't had time to cut off these cursed threads yet.

But this time, he would not let Xiao Zeyao kill people wantonly in Yishui County.He planned to find another way to stop the curse effect. (End of chapter)
