Five years.

Tao Huaying has lived in Shifu for five years.

In the past five years, the relationship between Tao Huaying and Shi Jing has become increasingly deep, and her daughter Yinyin has also become closer to her new father.

Tao Huaying was not idle either. She changed the inn into Feng Lai Building, recruited those female ghosts who were as lonely and helpless as herself in the ghost market, and tried to change their lives. With their appearance, they were allowed to receive guests at Fenglai Building to support themselves.

At the same time, Tao Huaying also relied on Feng Lailou's "income" to be promoted to Ghost King in just five years, becoming the second Ghost King in the Ghost City and a veritable second in command.

Shi Jing was not wary of Tao Huaying, and even took the initiative to support Tao Huaying.

As the ghost king, Tao Huaying is quite famous in the ghost market, and gradually establishes a firm foothold. Even if the ghosts in the ghost market rule out her identity as Shi Jing's wife and concubine, they still admire her. add.

Happy days have passed for five years, but the uninvited guest has come again.

The Yin Chai from five years ago came again. Just like the last time, the Yin Chai came to beg Shi Jing for his ghost.

But this time the pattern of the ghost market is different, because the second-in-command Tao Huaying appears in the ghost market.

Shi Jing originally wanted to send his men to arrest some old, weak, sick and disabled people to be used by undercover agents, like last time, but Tao Huaying stopped him.

Tao Huaying didn’t want what she and her daughter had experienced last time to happen to others, and according to the scope drawn by Shi Jing, there were many poor female ghosts in Feng Lai Building who wanted to do it. taken away.

This time, the Yin difference required a full 1,500 souls, and it was no longer just a gap that could not be filled by the old, weak, sick and disabled.

Shi Jing believes that everything is for the stability of the ghost market, so necessary sacrifices must be made.

The two had different ideas and had a big quarrel.

When Yinyin saw her parents quarreling, she couldn't bear it, so she pestered Shi Jing, trying to comfort her father.

When Shi Jing saw Yin Yin, his heart softened a little, and he took his daughter for a walk in Shi Mansion.

At this moment, Yin Chai arrived, and Yin Chai took a fancy to the cute little girl in Shi Jing's arms at a glance.

The sinister man smiled strangely, pinched Yinyin's cheek, and then smiled meaningfully at Shi Jing: "I didn't expect Master Shi to be so good at this."


"Daughter?" Yin Zai was stunned for a moment, but the evil in his eyes did not recede.

He said: "It shouldn't be biological, right?"

Yin Zai knows Shi Jing fairly well. Most of Shi Jing's descendants are in the ghost market, and he has never heard of such a daughter. .

Shi Jing can only explain Yin Yin’s identity to Yin Chai.

Unexpectedly, Yin Cha laughed loudly after hearing this: "It turns out that she was the girl I brought when I took a concubine. Sure enough, she has no blood relationship with you!"

Even if it is Shi Jing , at this time, I also felt something was wrong in Yin Chai's tone.

There was a bad guess in his mind. Before he could think about it, Yin Zai spoke bluntly:

"Master Shi Jing, I will tell you the truth. Well, I like your daughter very much. If you are willing to give her to me, it is worth a thousand souls!"

A Yin Yin is worth a thousand souls?

Shi Jing stayed where he was.

Last time, three hundred souls had taken away all the old, weak, sick and disabled people in the ghost market. Moreover, the people in the ghost market at that time were quite complaining about Shi Jing and made trouble several times.

The fifteen hundred souls this time gave Shi Jing a headache. If he really handed over the fifteen hundred souls, maybe the people in the ghost market would rebel.

But if...

If only five hundred souls need to be handed over, the people's resentment will be much less. When the time comes, the evil ghosts will be sent out to suppress them, and they will become Regardless of the weather, the ghost market can still be firmly in his own hands...

Seeing Shi Jing's move, Yin Zai smiled again and said: "She is not your daughter anyway, and besides, she is dead. It’s a hundred years old, right? Even if she looks like a little girl, she is no longer a child in actual age. If I take her away, I can complete her life. Isn’t that the best of both worlds?”

Shi Jing couldn't help but swallowed as he listened.

I actually felt that what Master Yin Chai said made sense...

However, seeing the still innocent Yin Yin in his arms, Shi Jing couldn't make up his mind for a moment. Gritting his teeth, he said to Yin Zai: "Sir, give me a day and I will discuss it with the child's mother."

Yin Zai was a little disappointed, nodded and said:

"That's it... It seems that Lord Shi Jing has no intention of parting with her, so I have no choice but to lower my stakes. Your daughter is only worth eight hundred souls now."

Shi Jing's eyes twitched, and there was something in his eyes. Anger flashed through him, but he knew he couldn't provoke this sinister master.

So he hugged Yinyin and left as if running away, not wanting to give Yin the chance to put pressure on her again.

At night, Shi Jing did not return Yin Yin to Tao Huaying.Instead, he took him back to his room and coaxed him to sleep.

After the innocent Yin Yin fell asleep, Shi Jing tossed and turned and could not fall asleep.

In fact, ghosts do not need to sleep. The reason why they sleep is just to continue the habits they had in life. However, Shi Jing's insomnia just shows the boredom in his heart.

Yinyin exchanges for eight hundred souls?

Should this deal be done or not?

Due to the arrival of the evil spirits, the people in the ghost market are already ready to take action, especially the ghosts who lost their loved ones five years ago, are particularly restless.

If another fifteen hundred souls are handed over, I am afraid that the people in the ghost market will cause trouble, and even the evil ghosts under my own hands may be out of control...

Shi Jing thought seriously, and his heart gradually became cold.

He looked at the sleeping Yin Yin, his eyes becoming ferocious.

Yin Yin is not his biological daughter, and as Yin Zai said, she is not even a child, but an old ghost who has lived for hundreds of years.

Do I have to take care of this stinky girl for the rest of my life?

A girl who is not related to me, exchanges eight hundred souls for peace in the ghost market...

But, how should Hua Ying explain it?

Shi Jing regained his brief composure, but soon his face darkened again.

Huaying? She is my concubine. In the past, concubines were just items that could be traded at will. I supported her to become the Ghost King and run Feng Lai Tower, which was already a great gift.

She is not qualified to negotiate terms with me!

Does Shi Jing love Peach Blossom Ying?

Perhaps a little bit, but after all, Shi Jing was born hundreds of years ago, and he held a high position during his lifetime, and became a powerful ghost after his death.

He can love women, but when necessary, women must make sacrifices for him in exchange for benefits.

I have protected her for many years, and now it is time for her to repay her favor.

Shi Jing silently covered Yinyin with a quilt and closed his eyes. After making the decision, he felt relaxed and could finally have a good dream.

After Shi Jing fell asleep, Yin Yin suddenly woke up.

She looked at her father beside her, then smiled sweetly, covered Shi Jing's body with her quilt, then got into Shi Jing's arms and slept peacefully.
