Chapter 110 General’s Mansion
Chapter 110 General’s Mansion
"Subordinate! I pay my respects to His Majesty!"
Just as Ye Qi was standing under the plaque at the general's mansion, a voice suddenly came from inside.
This time the sound was no longer as traceless as before, and it was much clearer than before.
"Teacher, that voice appeared again, did you hear it?" Ye Qi heard the voice appear again and hurriedly asked Mr. Mu.
"I heard you! But why did he call you 'Your Excellency'? Have you ever encountered something like this before?"
Old Mu was very confused. Generally speaking, those who could be called the Supreme were all extremely powerful men in this world.
With Ye Qi's strength, it is obviously impossible for him to have such deterrent power, and he is not a reincarnation, so it is difficult to imagine the reason.
"Your Majesty? When I was in the ruins before, I met a very powerful demon who called himself the Lord!" Ye Qi said slowly after thinking for a moment.
"No wonder I sensed such a strong demonic aura when I first met you. In the demon world, only those who can claim to be their true self are demon kings. If you carry the aura left by that demon king, it makes sense that the owner of this voice mistook you for someone else. But why did that little girl Jingshu guide you here?"
"Since Shu'er directed us here, she must have some connection with the owner of this voice. I believe she won't harm me. We'll know once we go in and take a look!"
Seeing that Mr. Mu was suspicious of Shu'er, Ye Qi began to defend Shu'er in a firm tone, and then stepped carefully into the gate of the general's mansion.
"You silly boy! Sooner or later you will suffer at the hands of a woman!" Old Mu looked at Ye Qi's innocent look and said with both anger and laughter.
When Ye Qi stepped into the gate of the general's mansion, the open door behind him suddenly closed automatically. Ye Qi was startled and quickly turned his head to look back. His heart suddenly beat like a drum.
At this moment, Ye Qi, who was standing in the courtyard of the general's mansion, suddenly realized that the bright light in the sky was obscured by dark clouds in just a few breaths. The courtyard, which was originally somewhat bright, was instantly filled with evil spirit.
"Why does the atmosphere here give me a familiar feeling?" Mr. Mu said doubtfully after pondering for a moment.
"Could it be that the owner of this general's mansion was also a senior from a thousand years ago?"
Old Mu felt this demonic energy. Although it was very strong, it was far from the strength of a demon king.
After all, among the demon clan, those who can be given the title of demon king will have their aura changed from that of ordinary demons due to the condensation of their demon pills.
Although this breath is very strong, it is far from that intensity.
"We'll know if we go in and take a look. His aura seems a bit weak. I think his strength has been greatly reduced for some reason. As long as he is not in his prime, he can't do anything to us!" Old Mu also breathed a sigh of relief and said calmly with some confidence.
After receiving Mr. Mu's response, Ye Qi felt more confident and was no longer as panicked as when the door suddenly closed just now. However, with the strange change in the sky and the evil spirit filling the yard, he still needed to be careful.
"Da da da!"
Ye Qi walked in the courtyard, but no matter where he went, he could always hear the sound of dripping water, and the frequency of this sound seemed to resonate with the sound of his heartbeat, which was extremely strange.
"anyone there?"
Ye Qi called out a few times tentatively, trying to communicate with the owner of the previous voice again. At least from the words just now, he could be sure that he had no ill intentions.
Now that the person has come in, the most urgent thing is to find that person's whereabouts and find out what Jingshu's intention is in guiding him here!
Shouts echoed in this lonely and dilapidated courtyard, but there was no response for a long time.
It seemed as if the person behind the scenes had disappeared after he stepped into the general's mansion.
At this moment, Ye Qi even suspected that this might be a trap set by the person behind the scenes.
After all, Jingshu had been recuperating in the clinic during the time she went to the ruins and had never left. No one knew where she got the map from.
I even suspected that it was really the map that Jingshu dropped accidentally, and I misunderstood it. Even she didn't know what was at the location on her map!
"Your honor!"
Just when Ye Qi started to have wild thoughts in this gloomy environment, the previous voice suddenly came again.
In this quiet environment, hearing this strange sound surprisingly made Ye Qi feel a little more at ease.
"Senior! Where are you?" Ye Qi called out again.
"No need to look for him. The evil spirit in this courtyard is all emitted from that well. If my guess is correct, he should be under the general's mansion!" said Old Mu.
"You live under a well instead of in a nice house? What a weirdo!"
Ye Qi walked to the well and looked inside. He found that the well had been abandoned for many years.
The well was surrounded by weeds, and there was not a drop of water in it. At a glance, one could see a small scene under the pitch-black well, illuminated by the light coming in from the wellhead.
After observing for a while and finding no valuable clues, Ye Qi took a deep breath and jumped into the bottom of the dry well. As his body fell and his feet touched the ground, a cloud of dust immediately rose up.
"It doesn't look like anyone has come down here. The grass under the well is so tall, and there are no signs of anyone stepping on it. Could the demon living in here be some old monster?" Ye Qi raised his hand to fan the dust in front of his face, muttering to himself.
"Why have you become more and more talkative since you entered the general's mansion? Are you scared?" Old Mu couldn't help laughing as he watched Ye Qi talking to himself and pretending to be calm to hide his inner panic.
"I want to be a savior hero. What should I be afraid of just a little demon?" Ye Qi said stubbornly.
"Stop talking nonsense! Look behind you!"
Old Mu instructed Ye Qi to turn around and look at the stone door behind him. The stone door was not closed, but there was a slight gap. However, a blood-red light was revealed in the gap, which looked extremely creepy.
Ye Qi, who had just been ridiculed by Mr. Mu, also plucked up his courage and walked towards that place.
Now that it has come to this, leaving is impossible. I will have to go to jail sooner or later anyway, so I might as well take the initiative to avoid the teacher teasing me about this again and being laughed at for nothing.
As Ye Qi pushed open the gap in the stone door, the astonishing scene before him came into view.
A burly and domineering red-haired man was sitting cross-legged in it, and there were several blood-red mists surrounding him!
"You are not Your Majesty! Boy! Who are you?"
