Mortal Bones

Chapter 158: The Natal Item, the Person Who Guides Ah Zhu

"Xu... Brother Xu... I seem to... remember."

On the cold street, Ah Zhu, with tears constantly falling from her cheeks, looked straight at Xu Taiping.

"I, I am the one you are looking for, the life object of the general."

When Ah Zhu said this, his voice was trembling a little, and his eyes were full of nostalgia and reluctance.

Originally, Xu Taiping was happy because he found the life object of the general and could help the people of Tianhai Town solve the current predicament. After seeing Ah Zhu's eyes, his heart suddenly "tickled".

"I was originally a life object refined by General Zhang Tianze after he broke through the realm of transformation, in order to deal with the heavenly tribulation of the realm of transformation, and also used as the eye of the sea burning array."

"In order to prevent the monsters from discovering my existence, I transformed into a human form and was sent to Tianhai Town, where the general's old subordinates helped to raise me."

"From the moment I transformed into a human form, all my memories of the general were sealed by a seal."

"Because the general is connected to my mind, he will not remember anything about me before I unlock the seal."

"This way of overcoming the tribulation is derived from the method of rebirth after the military release."

Azhu wiped the tears from her face and explained to Xu Taiping through voice transmission.

"Are your tears the key to unlocking the seal?"

Xu Taiping asked in surprise.

"Not tears, but compassion. When the general refined me, he gave me his compassionate thoughts."

Azhu shook her head, and her expression regained calmness.

But Xu Taiping noticed that her skin was turning white little by little.

"Boom!..."

Just when Xu Taiping wanted to ask her what happened, a huge explosion sounded from outside the city.

At the same time, a very terrible breath wave began to spread into the city like a tide.

"The Queen of Mermaids has discovered my breath."

After feeling this breath, Azhu's eyes suddenly became serious.

Xu Taiping was not very surprised about this, after all, this group of deep-sea monsters came for the general's natal creature.

"I'm afraid that tonight, the Queen of Mermaids will attack the city with all her strength."

Xu Taiping also frowned at this time.

"Mr. Xu, give me the Yin Fu."

Azhu stretched out his hand to Xu Taiping.

"Now?"

Xu Taiping looked at the pedestrians around him and looked at Azhu with some confusion.

After confirming that Azhu was the general's natal creature, he understood that Azhu wanted to help unlock the seal of the Yin Fu, but now was obviously not the right time.

"Mr. Xu, I don't have time."

Azhu pointed to the sky above his head.

Xu Taiping looked up in the direction of her finger, and saw that the sky, which was originally clear, was now covered with dark clouds, and the flashing lightning in the clouds was faintly visible.

"When the general transformed me into a human form, he passed a trace of Taiyi Qi to me. Although this method can make me the same as others, once the seal is released, it will attract heavenly punishment, and one of me and the general will definitely die."

Azhu explained to Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping was suddenly enlightened when he heard this.

He thought to himself, no wonder Azhu looked so reluctant after learning that she was the general's natal creature.

"Is there no other way?"

Xu Taiping's mood was also complicated at the moment.

No matter what, in his eyes, Azhu was a living little girl.

"That's enough."

Azhu smiled and shook his head, then said with a look of relief:

"Although my life is short, I have a grandfather who loves me, parents who care for me, and a brother who often causes trouble for me. That's enough."

Xu Taiping nodded, then handed the Yin Fu that the old general gave him to Azhu.

Azhu held the Yin Fu in his hand, walked towards a relatively quiet alley, and said to Xu Taiping without looking back:

"Mr. Xu, although there is the Yin Fu, how many ghost soldiers can be mobilized depends on the strength of the generals who lead the team."

"In my opinion, whether it is you or General Zhang Kaitai, you can mobilize at most about 3,000 ghost soldiers. And if there are only 3,000 ghost soldiers, it is still unknown whether they can defeat those deep-sea monsters."

Hearing this, Xu Taiping's heart sank.

He thought that if there were only three thousand ghost soldiers, they could hold out tonight, but when the mermaid queen in the sea lays eggs for the fourth, fifth, or even sixth time, and the monsters born become stronger and stronger, these three thousand ghost soldiers will obviously not be enough.

"Miss Azhu, do you know any other countermeasures?"

Xu Taiping asked Azhu tentatively.

In his opinion, after all, Azhu and General Zhang Tianze were connected in spirit, and maybe she knew some other countermeasures.

"Let me think about it."

Azhu held the Yin Fu and closed her eyes to think.

When she closed her eyes and thought, the black in her skin, like ink, flowed from her face to the arm where she held the Yin Fu, and finally all entered the Yin Fu.

"Is this the way to open the Yin Fu?"

Xu Taiping felt very novel.

"I can only take a gamble."

Suddenly, Azhu opened her eyes and looked at Xu Taiping with determination.

"Gamble? What to bet on?"

Xu Taiping asked with a puzzled look.

"The little strength I have left can only be used to set up a reception array to guide the outside world cultivators directly into Tianhai Town."

"However, if outside monks want to enter Tianhai Town through the reception array, in addition to setting up the corresponding teleportation array, they must also know the secret spell to enter my reception array."

A Zhu replied.

"But our connection with the outside world has been cut off by monsters, and no messages can be sent out."

Xu Taiping frowned.

"That's why I say it's a bet. I bet that someone can guess my intentions and the secret spell I set."

A Zhu smiled bitterly.

"Guess?"

Xu Taiping suddenly realized A Zhu's intention and immediately asked tentatively:

"Miss Azhu, the person you want to bring over is... General Zhang Tianze?"
