Hard spirit returns to hard spirit, after being covered with scars, and then being hung in mid-air, no matter what kind of hero you are, you have to become a bear. And it's a weak bear. In order to forget the pain in his body, the "unbeatable tiger" had to hang in the night sky and chatted nonsense with the Dongguan brigade. Some of the teenagers on the side were exhausted. Although it was extremely uncomfortable to hang in mid-air, they fell into a deep sleep. One or two didn't move or make a sound from the beginning to the end. They didn't know if they were dead. is live.

The runny-nosed young dysentery ghost respected Hu'er very much, although he was extremely sleepy, he managed to cheer up and talk and laugh with the two of them. After talking with Hu'er for a while, the Dongguan Brigade and Hu'er got to know each other a little better, and there was an indescribable sense of familiarity between them. In fact, neither of them knew that they had actually met each other shortly after they were born, and because of the weird arrangement of fate, the two had exchanged identities. This lame beggar boy is of course the prince of Chu who survived in the arms of his wet nurse.

The current Dongguan Brigade should actually be Tu'er back then, the illegitimate son of Chucheng King Xiong Hui. The current Hu'er is of course the son of "Duao" Xiongxi, the King of Chu who died in that battle for power. How can such a messy account be explained by the word "chaos"? Fortunately, the two knew nothing about this strange past, so there was nothing to argue about. Then again, given the current state of Chu, it doesn't matter whether it is the son of Xiongxi or the son of Xiong Hui. Because the current king of Chu is already the king of Mu, and the power has fallen to the trend of Doujia.

The two were chatting, and the Dongguan Brigade couldn't help but asked with a smile. "Why are you called 'the tiger who can't be killed'? Don't tell me you really have three heads, six arms and nine lives, so you can't be killed anyway?" Hu'er smiled weakly. "It's a long story to say... If I want to say it, I probably have to start from my mother's time. When my mother was young, she used to be the maid of the former King Cheng. Of course, at that time, King Cheng had not yet become the King of Chu, but was just the Prime Minister of the Chu Kingdom.

Once King Cheng drank wine, and after drinking, he had sex with my mother, and gave birth to me when she was pregnant in October. I heard that when I was born, I dreamed of the stars in the sky or something. Son of the most noble man in Chu!Now I am the proud son of heaven, right? snort! Later, Cheng Wang never paid attention to my mother. He only regarded her as a dead person and had forgotten about it. Later, for some reason, my mother and I met him again. He didn’t say anything, just gave her I gave my mother some money to live on. Later he became the king of Chu, and after he became the king of Chu Cheng, he didn't pay attention to our mother and son for a long time, and my mother didn't dare to say anything, so she could only go to the countryside to help people spin yarn.

Such a hard life means I'm an unlucky ghost, right? not necessarily. what!Once, King Cheng of Chu went to the countryside to have fun on a whim. He drank a lot of wine with his subordinates and said that he wanted to prove that the power of King Chu was greater than the world. As long as he wanted to, he could Let anyone be honored forever. At that time, many children in the countryside were playing with the dirt and stepping on the mud. He pointed at me casually, but he pointed at me. Then he ordered his subordinates to arrange for me to go to the Taimiao, where I would have no worries about food and clothing until I died.

Later, he learned that such a random point actually hit his own flesh and blood, and he was so happy that he was going crazy. At that time, the old man had a bad relationship with his son, Shang Chen. Now that he found my son, he changed and made me do it Prince's plan. If so, didn't I fly from the mud to the clouds again? Don’t be happy, the old man didn’t say this for a long time. One afternoon, a strange wind came from above the Taimiao, and the roof was blown down, and the beams were blown down, and my leg was broken. Since then, I have become a disabled person, and of course a disabled person does not need to consider being a prince.

And because of rumors of changing the crown prince, the old man's son felt that the situation was not good, so he and his subordinates killed him. That is the current Mu Wang Chu Shangchen. Hmph, people say how great the King of Chu is. Without this great position, wouldn't I still live comfortably? To be serious, this seat was given to him by my own brother! " When he spoke so brazenly, the Dongguan Brigade was not only surprised, but also amused. "So, you are still the king and grandson of Chu State? Didn't you say that you are still guarding the Taimiao?Why didn't you watch it later? "

"Do you think I'm a fool?" Hu'er glared at him. "Do you know that after a king ascends the throne, those brothers who threaten his throne are an eyesore? As soon as King Chucheng died, my mother was so frightened that she took me away overnight. This area is really right, because I heard that after we left, my elder brother Shang Chen sent people to kill all the people in the Taimiao. From then on, my mother and I didn't even have to stay in the countryside, because at that time there were still many people looking for my whereabouts so that I could be taken back to Yidaokacha, so we had to start beggars.

Not long after, my mother fell ill and died, leaving me alone..." Before the Dongguan brigade could answer, suddenly, the dysentery ghost said something without thinking. "You're alright..." He said quietly, "At least you've seen your mother, you still remember her appearance, and what she said." The Dongguan Brigade looked at him in surprise, Hu'er smiled lightly and said. "Don't pay attention to him. He has been separated from his mother since he was a child, and he doesn't remember what she looks like at all." "Who said I don't remember?" the dysentery ghost protested: "I really remember that my mother talked to me and took me to eat the cherry cake from Yunzhongjun's shop in the west of the city..."

"Okay, okay," Hu'er said with a wry smile, "Forget that I was wrong, is this okay?" The young dysentery ghost didn't seem to hear what he was saying, but was immersed in the ancient memories again, with a gentle expression. Seeing his expression, Hu'er smiled helplessly, and glanced at Dongguan Brigade. "He must be talking about that again..." he whispered, "It must be mother's cherry cake again." Sure enough, the dysentery ghost spoke softly, as if he was going to say such words when he saw his mother. "Every time I get beaten up, I think of the cherry cake my mother took me to eat... One day, I must eat the cherry cake there again..." Hu'er didn't pay any attention to him, just whispered. "That kind of food is not something that people like us can afford," he said angrily, "It's not a rich businessman, nor a prince or nobleman. It's really..." The three of them talked like this, and in the blink of an eye, it was already early morning, and the sky had gradually turned pale. Not long after, noisy voices came from the other end of the prison, and several teenagers who were hung in the air woke up one after another. Everyone looked at each other in surprise, not knowing what fate would happen next. Killing a rare bird in a noble garden is not a light crime, but it doesn't seem to be too serious. And everyone has already been beaten like this, will there be a heavier punishment? With a "bang", a group of jailers walked in from the prison gate, as well as a few big men in yellow clothes. These big men looked handsome and handsome, and they should be the nobles of the Chu Kingdom. Seeing the distressed appearance of the little beggars hanging in the air, the big men in yellow laughed loudly, as if they saw something interesting. The East Gate Brigade stared at the big men curiously, turned his head inadvertently, and saw Hu'er's swollen face was extremely pale and trembling slightly. "Why?" Dongguan Brigade whispered, "Is it cold?" "It's not cold," Hu'er said with a wry smile, "It's just that I urinated last night, otherwise I'd still be scared to urinate now." "It's not that serious, is it?" Dongguan Lvqiang said with a strong smile, "Look at what you said." "Didn't I tell you that I was an unkillable tiger?" "That's right!" Dongguan Brigade laughed and said, "And you're not even afraid of the King of Chu." Hu'er started to giggle nervously, but the expression of fear on his face became more and more serious. "I don't know if I'm afraid of the King of Chu. But I only know that my signboard of 'unbeatable' has been smashed ninety-ninety percent today... Because these people are the subordinates of a terrible person, even if I am indestructible, I am afraid that I will die today..." Dongguan Brigade wondered: "What do you mean by that? What kind of scary person?" "These big men in yellow are all subordinates of the nobles of Chu State. In today's Chu State, he has the highest authority. Some people even say that even the king of Chu should respect him three points..." "Is there such a person?" "That's right," Hu'er nodded dejectedly. "He is Ling Yin of Chu State today: Dou Ziyu!" As soon as he heard the name, the Dongguan Brigade made a "boom", and his whole head went blank. It's Dou Ziyu again! Dou Ziyu, an aristocrat of the Chu State who caused the tragic death of his adoptive parents and made him homeless. But knowing this fact seems to be of no use to his revenge. Facing the mighty authority of the Chu State, he poured out all the power of the country, but what he possessed was only a pitifully small amount of his own power. Needless to say, after confronting Dou Ziyu, he doesn't even know what he looks like, what he does, and where he can be found. And now the situation is even worse. When have you ever seen a "hero" who was hung high in the air and whose life was slaughtered at any time achieved his wish for revenge?
