Chapter 1367
"about this issue……"
Gui Ling obviously guessed that Chu Yang was going to ask this question, and there was no surprise in his tone, but he seemed a little bit embarrassed about this question.
"...Actually, I don't know how I died. After entering this city, I suddenly lost consciousness. After waking up, I became like this."
Hearing this answer, Chu Yang was also a little surprised for a while.
Naturally, he didn't think that the ghost's death was so simple, after all, the other party was also a mid-period monk and the lord of a city.
If you want to hurt the lives of ghosts, your cultivation base will definitely not be too weak, and there must be few strong people in the land of ghosts.
But if ghosts don't even know how they died, then this matter is worth pondering.
Or the cultivation level of the existence that killed her was much higher than hers, and a monk like Ying Ning, who was at the peak of the Immortal Realm, might be able to do it.
Either someone set up an imperceptible formation in the city, and the ghost just died in the formation, so she naturally didn't know how she died.
But the problem is that this place is not a wilderness, but a big city in the center.
If such a dangerous formation really exists, it is impossible for the city lord to be ignorant of it.
Unless the city lord himself is the one who set up the formation.
But from a common sense, the city lord has no reason to do so.
And since Ying Ning did not kill the city lord, it must have nothing to do with the other party.
So the question is, how did the ghost die?
Even the person involved is completely confused, and the others naturally have no way of knowing, and they don't even know how to find clues.
Having said that, Chu Yang still asked knowingly:
"Then has she found a clue now?"
The "she" he mentioned does not refer to anyone else, but naturally refers to Ying Ning.
"No, after all these years, there is still nothing."
Ghost shook his head as expected.
"If there is no clue at all, there is really no way to investigate."
"Yeah, but that girl insists on entangled in this matter, so many years of wasted time here."
Ghost sighed lightly.
Chu Yang frowned slightly, and continued to ask:
"It has nothing to do with the city owner of this city?"
Although he knew that this question was a bit knowingly asked, he still had to ask it.
After a few brief chats, he found that the ghosts had a lot of trust in him.
At least some things can be said without reservation.
It is estimated that the ghost has long been indifferent, or it may feel that even if these things are said, it will not have any impact on Ying Ning.
Think about it too, even if he knows the inside story, what's the use?
It is nothing more than knowing the relationship between Ghost and Ying Ning, and what Ying Ning has been up to these years.
However, Gui Ling didn't have many questions, and it was indeed a bit too friendly to answer his questions so honestly.
"Of course it has nothing to do with him. In fact, he was not the lord of this city when I died."
Ghost quickly denied it.
"Oh? Who was the previous city lord?"
Chu Yang hurriedly asked.
To be honest, he was quite surprised by this.
After all, the city lord has reached the peak of the ghost land, so he must be one of the strongest in this place.
And from the breath of life of the other party, it can be seen that the other party must have been practicing for a long time, probably one of the oldest ghost cultivators in the land of ghosts.
Rao is such an existence that he was not the city lord in the first place, but took over, which really surprised Chu Yang.
The most important thing is—how did the other party become the lord of this city?
"I don't know either, anyway, it's a dragon that sees its head but doesn't see its end."
After giving the answer, Ghost seemed to have guessed the thought in his mind, and continued:
"As for how that city lord became the city lord... It is said that the previous lord of the city invited him by name, and that guy disappeared after telling the story in the city, and no one has seen this former lord since then. Castellan."
"So the answer isn't obvious?"
Hearing this, Chu Yang was slightly taken aback for a moment, and then smiled.
"It was the former city lord who killed you."
To be honest, if the so-called previous city lord hadn't been so secretive, maybe the suspicion could have been lowered.
But now there are too many doubts about the other party, and the answer has been revealed without reservation.
With so many clues pointing to the other party, even if it's really not what the other party said, it must be related.
Not to mention that the city lord at that time must have seen the death of the ghost, and the probability of knowing the truth is very high.
But even though the answer is so obvious, Ying Ning still has nothing to gain after all these years.
The reason is very simple, that is, no one knows the true face of the previous city lord.
Whether it's the last name, the specific appearance, or even the geometry of the other party's cultivation, it's hard to say.
All I know is that the other party has been the city lord for a long time, and his strength is definitely at the top.
Therefore, even if she knew the answer, Ying Ning was completely helpless.
The only breaking point may be the current city lord.
As an existence who inherits the identity of the other party's face, there may be some clues in this city lord.
Otherwise, the other party would not have asked him to be the city lord by name.
Of course, it doesn't rule out that the former city lord just said a name casually, which was just a smoke bomb.
But in any case, this may be the only clue.
Otherwise, you can only look around like a headless chicken.
Perhaps it was precisely because of this that Ying Ning chose to control the city lord.
While taking care of my mother, maybe I can find some clues.
It's a pity that even after waiting for hundreds of years, she couldn't find any clues.
If there were no changes, perhaps Ying Ning would not be able to find the one who killed her mother even if she spent her entire life here.
Chu Yang can now understand the ghost's mind.
No wonder she would say that she is a burden to Ying Ning, she might as well die.
In her eyes, it is precisely because of her own affairs that dragged Ying Ning down, causing the other party not only to waste hundreds of years, but may even continue to do useless work for a lifetime.
It is estimated that with Ying Ning's temperament, he will not leave the land of ghosts until he finds out the truth.
Therefore, the ghost naturally felt that it would be better for him to die like this.
Although Ying Ning may be very sad at first, perhaps this will allow her to let go of her long-standing obsessions, and finally leave this extremely disgusting ghost land and return to the human world.
However, in the current state of Ghost Spirit, he can't even kill himself.
If she was really killed by other existences, Chu Yang could imagine how angry Ying Ning would be, and would definitely want to avenge his mother.
But this time it's not that there are no clues at all, it's much easier to find than the previous time.
If revenge can be accomplished, perhaps this obsession that has lasted for hundreds of years can really be let go.
But in this case, the person who killed the ghost will suffer.
Chu Yang didn't want to make enemies with Ying Ning, so even if he felt that Ying Ning's thoughts were reasonable, he would not kill Ying Ning.
This matter is not a joke, even if Ying Ning knew that her mother wanted to die, she would not let him go.
So this seems to be a dilemma.
Chu Yang also didn't want to see Ying Ning continue to waste his life on such a completely unpredictable matter, but he couldn't persuade him.
What's more, if he really appeared in front of Ying Ning with his real identity, the first thing he would meet was the other party's anger.
But if he really followed Ghost Ling's will and killed her, Chu Yang would feel a little bit sorry.
He can guarantee that Ying Ning will not know about it, but it is too cruel to kill the mother who is the most important to the other party.
So both options have pros and cons.
But well...
If he wants to, there are many methods that are very convenient and have no disadvantages at all.
Anyway, with Baiyin, the master of the cave, behind him, there are too many things he can do, and he doesn't need to think about anything at all.
The most important thing is that this matter is just a matter of effort for Baiyin, it doesn't need much effort at all.
Thinking of this, Chu Yang couldn't help showing a smile on his face, staring at the ghostly fire in front of him.
Do you want to solve this problem once and for all?
He made his choice quickly.
