Chapter 243 The Birth of the Ghost King
Of course, what they expected didn't happen. The two adults threw the child at the edge of the forest and ran away as fast as possible without looking back, as if there were evil spirits chasing them behind them.
The child watched their leaving figures without making any noise. After the last figure was no longer visible, the child sat on the ground with a numb face, quietly waiting for his fate.
Until nightfall, the predator in the darkness discovered this scrawny little prey. It carefully approached from behind the prey, then found the right moment to kill it, bit the prey's shoulder and quickly rushed back to the forest.
Then, the surrounding scene was like an accelerated version of a movie scene, messy and fast-forwarding. When it recovered, the child had been dragged into the depths of the primeval forest covered in blood.
Miraculously, the predator did not kill him immediately, but threw him to the ground, turned around and took out several young predators from the nest.
When several young predators surrounded the child, he suddenly realized that he didn't kill him not because he wanted to raise him as a child, but because he needed him as a training partner for his children.
Thinking of this, this child, who had been very quiet since he appeared, suddenly laughed, with a very ironic expression on his face.
Beasts also know how to teach their children how to get food, but humans only throw away their children when there is no food.
Oh, maybe he should also thank them for not treating his children as food like other adults, and still have some conscience?
Facing the young predator that rushed up, the child remained motionless, probably because he really had no strength, or maybe because this little life that had not been born in the world for a few years no longer wanted to live, and he wanted to go back, although he also I don't know where I can go back.
But he still underestimated the pain caused by death. When he was devoured by predators, he was not even completely dead. The severe pain made him feel great resentment towards his nominal parents.
Until he lost consciousness, his heart was still filled with anger and hatred, as well as endless sadness.
The child thought he would leave here when he woke up, but things went counterproductive. When he regained consciousness and opened his eyes again, he found that he was still in the same place, but the predators seemed to be unable to see him or touch him.
Not just predators, the child discovered that he could walk through anything, even if it rained he wouldn't get wet, and most importantly, he didn't feel hungry anymore.
The child is very happy. He wants to go home and tell his parents that he doesn't need to eat anymore. Although his parents abandoned him, he could forgive them. He knew that there really was no more food in the family.
But unfortunately, he seemed to be tied by an invisible rope and could only go out a certain distance. His range of activities was fixed.
The child was lost and angry, and finally could only accept the reality, wandering around in confusion. Finally, at a certain moment, he found a gnawed-out skeleton, which was very small and inconspicuous scattered in the grass.
He stood there and stared for a long time. The more he looked, the more he felt it was an eyesore. The more he looked, the more he couldn't control the anger in his heart.
Finally, the energy broke through the constraints of his body and spread to all directions, forming the initial ghost realm.
The child found that he could touch things again. He buried his own bones first, and then turned around to seek revenge on that family of predators.
He killed them and ate their souls, and then he found that he had a sense of fullness again, and after digestion, he was surprised to find that the range he could move around was also a little wider.
After that, the child decided to hunt more prey, leave here as soon as possible, and go back to find his parents.
But he soon discovered a problem. As time went by, he ate more and more souls, and he gradually grew up. He was very scared. He had changed so much that his parents would no longer recognize him when he returned home. Therefore, he began to imitate his former self, consciously or unconsciously.
At this time, because he had eaten too many souls, his consciousness was no longer very clear. After a period of time, he lost his mind and only his instincts remained.
Finally one day, quantitative changes led to qualitative changes, and he broke through and became the King of Ghosts, regaining his sanity again.
Having completely transformed into an adult, he broke through the range restrictions on the day he regained his senses and successfully reached the edge of the forest where his parents abandoned him. But standing at the edge of the forest, looking in the direction of the village for a long time, he turned back to the forest, occupying the nest that once belonged to the predator, and used the ground as a prison.
The ghosts in Ailao Mountain all know that there is a ghost king in this area, and they all know that the ghost king has a quirk. He doesn't like to go out and move around, so he stays in his own one-third of an acre of land. You can't be a homebody, and you can't be a fierce person either.
Because for so many years, only a handful of people have been able to pass through the Ghost King's realm safely.
The illusion ended here, the thick fog dissipated, and the ghost king's figure appeared in front of everyone, tall and thin, with disheveled hair like a wild man.
The two groups of people were just five or six meters apart, looking at each other as if they were confronting each other. No one spoke for a while.
It wasn't until Zhang Qiuyan got out of the initial tension that the ghost king opposite finally spoke, not in a deliberately soft voice, but in a normal, slightly deep male voice, "I'm so jealous."
Gu Qingyin was stunned for a moment, then realized that although the Ghost King's attention fell on her, the words were meant for Huo Xingchen.
Huo Xingchen was speechless. When he was a child, he had envied other children for having mothers, and was jealous that their mothers would take them to and from school. But he didn't know what to say. Everything he said seemed to be irritating.

"Would you like to play a game?" The Ghost King obviously didn't care about their reactions. He had his own rhythm. "Let me help you test whether your mother really loves you." After saying this, he looked at Huo Yunjing again. "And your dad, let's play together too."
Huo Xingchen frowned, "He is not my father."
The Ghost King said "ha", obviously not believing it.
Huo Xingchen still wanted to explain, but Huo Yunjing suddenly said: "We don't have time to play with you, get out of the way or die."
Huo Xingchen let out a wow in his heart, and then he realized what he had to explain to a ghost. If he wanted to fight, he would fight. How could there be so many things?
The Ghost King's eyes were heavy, "I will let you go after playing this game." He grinned, "You don't want such a cute child to be buried with me, right?"
Gu Qingyin sneered, "What a loud tone." Before she could finish her words, the talisman in her hand flew out with the blessing of her soul power.
The Ghost King refused to dodge. He stood there and took the blow forcefully, letting out a painful groan.
At the same time, Huo Xingchen also let out a cry of pain, and then spurted out a mouthful of blood.
Gu Qingyin's expression suddenly changed, "Stars!"
