2854 Ghost king Liu Qing (1)
On the way back, Tang Zhen bought a jar of old wine and a few pounds of cooked beef before he leisurely returned home.
The blacksmith was still striking the iron ingot, but his whole body was spurting fire, which looked very strange.
Although the stove was burning, the temperature in the room was not high, and one could even feel a slight chill.
Especially those newly forged weapons, which glowed with a cold light, as if they could freeze people.
“You rest for a while. I’ll forge an item.”
After hearing Tang Zhen’s words, the blacksmith dodged to the side with a respectful expression.
The heavy hammer was abnormally cold, a layer of frost covering its surface. In some places, it even seemed to have turned into Jade.
Tang Zhen held the iron hammer in his hand like a straw stick. At the same time, he picked up the iron ingot and continuously struck it.
The flames in the furnace seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, constantly licking the iron ingot and wrapping it up.
“Clang clang clang!”
The sound of hammering continued, and the color of the iron ingot became whiter and whiter, and then began to turn golden.
A special light gradually spread out.
He stretched out his hand and beckoned to the side. A long knife fell into Tang Zhen’s hand. He waved it like a writing brush and continuously carved on the long metal.
Profound and ancient runes continuously appeared on the surface of the metal, and soon, the surface of the metal was full of runes.
“It’s done,”
As Tang Zhen spoke, he took out the mirror in his pocket and threw it into the quenching pool at the side.
“Huala”
There was a loud explosion in the pool, as if a pot had been opened. Then, a figure jumped out.
“I want you dead!”
The one who jumped out was the ghost king. After it saw Tang Zhen, it immediately waved its sharp claws and pounced over.
“Still not being honest? then I’ll give you a taste of pain!”
Tang Zhen’s voice had just fallen when the metal bar in front of him floated up and directly collided with the ghost king.
He was like a fish, constantly chasing after the ghost king, making it feel a great sense of danger.
“Ah!”
A blood-curdling screech rang out as the metal strip was actually wrapped around the ghost king’s neck, tightly locking it together.
The next moment, the runes on the iron ring flashed, and it burst into hot flames.
The ghost king was being burned to the point where it rolled on the ground. It wanted to escape but was unable to do so. It could only continuously curse Tang Zhen.
In just a dozen seconds, the ghost king began to wail and beg for mercy, begging Tang Zhen to let him go.
The blacksmith was dumbfounded. They were both evil spirits, so he could naturally feel the power of the ghost king.
If he was a wild cat, the ghost king would be a hungry tiger, able to bite him to death with a light bite.
Such a terrifying existence was unable to withstand a single blow in front of Tang Zhen. He was able to subdue him with an iron ring that he casually forged.
Looking at Tang Zhen’s action of throwing the mirror, he should have already subdued the ghost king and imprisoned it in the mirror.
He had originally guessed that Tang Zhen was very powerful, but without a comparison, the blacksmith didn’t have a clear concept.
However, he was clear now that if Tang Zhen wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as crushing an ant.
However, why would such an expert tolerate his existence and even teach him cultivation techniques?
Was it really like what he said, just for someone to forge a sword and clean the yard?
“Sir, please spare my life!”
The ghost king’s cry for mercy brought the blacksmith back to his senses, and he saw that the ghost king was already kneeling on the ground.
Even though the metal ring on his neck was constantly releasing flames, the ghost king was still enduring the pain, not daring to make any more sounds.
Tang Zhen nodded his head when he saw the ghost king’s expression.
“My initial plan was to burn you into a pile of ashes, as a way of getting rid of evil for the people.
However, since you’ve begged so pitifully, I’ll give you a chance to try and wash away all your sins.”
Tang Zhen’s face was expressionless as he looked at the ghost king whose body was trembling and spoke in an indifferent tone.
“Thank you for your mercy, Sir. I’ll do my best and follow your arrangements.”
The ghost king’s voice was hoarse, and it was impossible to tell his gender, but there was a hint of surprise in his tone.
“Well, in that case, from now on, you’ll be in charge of cleaning and cooking.
This is a blacksmith, he came here earlier than you, if you have any questions you can ask him.”
Tang Zhen waved his hand and the metal ring on the ghost king’s neck instantly stopped spitting out flames.
Tang Zhen ignored the ghost king who knelt down and kowtowed. He returned to the shop in front and continued to open the door for business.
The atmosphere in the blacksmith shop was a little heavy.
The ghost king was invisible and looked like a cloud of black mist, but it could transform into all kinds of forms.
After Tang Zhen left, the ghost king remained silent for a moment before slowly standing up.
It looked at the blacksmith at the side, and after hesitating for a few seconds, it bowed to him.
“Big brother, please take care of me.”
Fortunately, the blacksmith was a spirit body, otherwise, his hair would have stood up in fear. He quickly shook his head to show that there was no need to be so polite.
This was a ghost king that could kill him with a single bite. He couldn’t be careless.
“You were a mute when you were alive?”
The ghost king asked, and the blacksmith quickly nodded.
it doesn’t matter. After you become a spirit body, all the things you lost when you were alive can be repaired. I’ll teach you how to do it.
This ghost king didn’t have good intentions. Instead, he wanted to increase his understanding of Tang Zhen through the blacksmith.
The ghost king explained the method, and the blacksmith followed it. Sure enough, he could speak his mind.
“Thank you, Qianqian.”
The blacksmith hesitated, not knowing how to address the ghost king.
you’re welcome. You can call me Liu Qing. That way, we won’t be distant.
As ghost king Liu Qing spoke, he quickly transformed into a tall and alluring beauty.
The blacksmith’s eyes widened. He had never seen such a perfect woman in his entire life.
However, he quickly realized that the person in front of him was not an ordinary woman of the mortal world, but a terrifying ghost king.
If she was angry, she could turn a city into a ghost town.
After realizing this, the blacksmith quickly lowered his head and did not dare to look at the ghost king Liu Qing.
“Pfft!”
Liu Qing smiled with a devastatingly beautiful look and asked the blacksmith, ” “Big guy, am I pretty?”
The blacksmith didn’t dare to raise his head and said in a muffled voice, ” beautiful! Not even fairies are as beautiful as you!
“Then do you think master will be tempted when he sees me like this?” Liu Qing asked again.
The blacksmith raised his head, looked at Liu Qing seriously, and shook his head firmly.
“I won’t!”
Hearing the blacksmith’s answer, Liu Qing raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, ” “Then why don’t you tell me?”
The blacksmith was honest and straightforward, so he answered without any hesitation, ” “Master is very powerful, indescribably powerful. Even you are not his match.
He’s like a banished immortal, so he shouldn’t be greedy for the beauty of the mortal world, let alone a mayfly like you.”
The blacksmith stopped talking as he saw a layer of black Qi appearing on Liu Qing’s face and his eyes turning green.
“Hehe, Yingluo.”
Seeing the blacksmith’s appearance, the dark clouds on Liu Qing’s face disappeared instantly, and his expression changed at an amazing speed.
“Big guy, if I’m not mistaken, you were killed by someone, right?”
The blacksmith was stunned for a moment, then he said in a cold tone, ” “Yes, I was poisoned to death. They stole my family’s ancestral treasure.”
“Do you want to take revenge?”
“I want to take revenge, but I don’t have the chance.”
“I’ll help you take revenge, but you have to listen to me in the future. What do you think?”
“I’ll listen to you, but you have to listen to master, so I’ll still listen to master directly.”
“Hehe, you’re not stupid.”
“I’m silly, but I know that master is more powerful than you.”
Liu Qing was so angry that he rolled his eyes. He had wanted to deal with this iron dummy, but he didn’t expect him to be so stubborn.
She still didn’t dare to be presumptuous in case she angered Tang Zhen and was burned by that terrifying fire again.
Touching the iron ring on his neck, Liu Qing had a faint feeling that the fire might only be the lightest punishment.
At the same time, he was also secretly shocked in his heart. He wondered who exactly Tang Zhen was. He would actually live in such a dilapidated blacksmith shop and raise a stupid and cowardly ghost.
Could this be the cultivation of an expert, the legendary experience of the mortal world, hidden in the city?
Just as she was letting her imagination run wild in her heart, she heard Tang Zhen’s voice faintly coming from the shop in front.
it’s almost time. Go and prepare to cook!
“Ah, I’ll do it immediately!”
The mighty ghost king Liu Qing, a terrifying existence that struck fear into the hearts of countless cultivators, was now surrounding a stove and busily working.
