Lord of the Tricks

Chapter 186 Brazenly cheating, living people eat incense (10k)

Time flies, and several months have passed. Yu Ziqing has been practicing honestly, laying a solid foundation, and is not in a hurry to advance bravely. His cultivation speed is already very fast.

In addition to constantly beating the physical body and tempering the Yin God, the rest of the time is also very busy.

Sorting out the records in the Anshi Book and sorting out a large amount of complicated information obtained from the seals, we have to continue to open the project.

Not only to continue to complete the hundred Jinlan secret arts, but also to continue to open all kinds of messy topics.

Just like Jin Lan's secret technique, Yu Ziqing just started the question and left it there.

This is preparation, the more you know, the more directions you have, and when you gain judgment power, you can slightly control the direction of the power you get.

If you don't care about anything, the power you get may be a skill button that doesn't even have an instruction manual. You only know how to use it instinctively, but you don't know how it came from.

Using the power of judgment, doing private work along the way, and obtaining a treacherous secret method, it will not affect the final result of killing the enemy.

Then why not take the opportunity to do some private work.

Yu Ziqing relied on his own knowledge to try to deduce a new secret method, so he could feel that he should not push himself too hard.

He has only studied for a few years, and his knowledge reserve is comparable to that of an old sheep. He is no different from an illiterate.

Deduce it entirely by yourself, or forget it.

Or honestly be Party A, give a direction, give a request, and then lie flat and wait for the boss of Party B to smash the result on his face. Just call 666.

The chief can do this, so there is nothing wrong with using judgment to do so.

For a few months, there was no sign of calming down outside, but it became more and more noisy.

I often heard Song Chengyue moaning there, feeling restless.

The imperial court is uneasy, and Langya Court is also uneasy.

In the imperial court, the crown prince and those princes were fighting with each other, and any bad things could be their reasons for fighting.

In Langya Courtyard, there was even more uneasiness. Cheng Jing, the head of the rotating courtyard, killed another president in public in Langya Courtyard.

There was a lot of noise about this.

Previously, in Langya Courtyard, there was a lot of quarrel over whether to classify Langya's incarnation as a sorcery.

Those who studied the Langya incarnation technique, who participated in it, and who presided over it, were all scavenged.

However, the research data on Langya's incarnation technique itself is incomplete.

Before this incident, it was possible to blame the dead Chief Wu, but since the death of the Governor, he died in front of Cheng Jing, and in front of Cheng Jing, using the god-devil substitute death technique, the nature has changed .

The lack of data in the early stage of research is not just lost, but a deliberately destroyed secret, destroying the original source of this sorcery.

Cheng Jing made a murderous move, not only killing the head of the academy in public, but also taking down all the people who participated in the research.

If you want to say that a dignified head of the hospital has been involved in research since the early stage, can he not know what the root cause of the evil law is, that is to insult everyone's IQ and insult his own IQ.

This matter was so uproar that Emperor Qian had to ask about it. Cheng Jing hadn't said anything yet. Jianzhen, who had been in seclusion, got the news, and went out of the seclusion to meet Emperor Qian, pushing him back.

Langya Courtyard was roughly divided into three factions. The faction led by Cheng Jing, supported by Jian Zhen, wanted to make reforms in Langya Courtyard.

There were also some heads of the academy who came together to oppose Cheng Jing's messing around and making things worse.

There are also some, as long as it doesn't disturb my research, doesn't affect my research, and doesn't lack my funds, it doesn't matter to me if the dog beats the donkey to death.

In addition, although Langya Yuan is nominally independent, it still has to ask Emperor Qian for a lot of funds.

The people inside can't really be completely independent. From students to teachers, many forces are standing behind them. They may themselves be direct members of a certain family or faction.

The Langya Courtyard was in a commotion, and the various forces, as well as the Dagan Crown Prince, Prince, etc., naturally followed suit, and the situation became more and more chaotic.

In just a few months, a head of the academy has fallen, and there have been more than a dozen bloody incidents.

It is said that Cheng Jing also found out some other things, the whole person was in a state of anger, and he was unwilling to take a step back no matter what.

Originally, this kind of opportunity was a good time to reach into Langya Courtyard and take advantage of the opportunity to deploy people.

Song Chengyue cautiously did not intervene, and has been secretly maintaining the situation outside Langya Courtyard, ensuring that the problem is resolved within Langya Courtyard.

Inside, he can't control it, but if it spreads outside, there will be his problems.

The Governor just died, and he has no opponents, so it's better to keep a low profile and not be rampant, otherwise it's easy to end up with him.

Yu Ziqing didn't care much about these issues, he only cared about the Daqian court and Langya Court, and whether anyone went to the archway in the south of the wilderness.

Then, Song Chengyue said that the Dagan court and Langya Court had no time to pay attention to these matters, and only sent some spies.

Yu Ziqing understood.

He didn't care what was going on in Dagan, he would only acquiesce in Langya Yuan and Dagan court, someone knew or guessed that there was a big hole in that archway.

Therefore, until there is no definite news, they will not invest in high-level powerhouses.

No one went to the Dali court, as if they didn't know about it at all.

Everyone seems to be waiting.

Yu Ziqing could understand their cautiousness. If they did nothing, they could let Da Dui return and open the tenth-order road, then they would also be able to reap the benefits with peace of mind.

At this moment, I have made enough preparations, and when the road to the tenth step is opened, I will be able to attack the tenth step before everyone else.

Yu Ziqing felt that among the gods, great sects, and great clans, almost all of them are one calamity and two calamities, and there are only a handful of third ranks, which may be the reason.

One or two kalpas to go to work, three kalpas to practice latently, it is best to be prepared at any time and maintain the state.

At that time, whoever is the first to appear on the tenth level will not only have the strongest deterrent effect, but also have a different meaning.

Yu Ziqing kept sorting out the information in Jinlan Mountain.

On the other side, Da Li.

Fu Xiao was also in the Shadow Division's archives, constantly looking for records about Da Dui.

In the huge library in Dali Palace City, there are also a large number of people who are looking for any records related to Dadui.

Those records may have existed before, but when Da Dui disappeared, those records will be under the influence of inexplicable power, so that they can't see them, and they can't find them. Even if they see them, they may ignore the key points.

Now, a white jade building that really belongs to Dadui has appeared, and the archway of Dadui has also appeared, which kicked off the prelude, and the terrible shielding will dissipate a lot.

Although Dali didn't do anything on the surface, the prince was already making preparations in advance.

There are more and more records about Dadui, all of which have been sorted out and summarized.

Originally, they couldn't find a few books, but now, they have found some scattered records among thousands of books, including some records about Dadui.

All are records related to Dadui, and there are already two or three hundred copies.

And this number is still increasing.

The prince looked at one of the books, which was a travelogue, which recorded what a monk from Dali had seen and heard during his travels in Dadui.

As mentioned above, Da Dui Dingmao, a monk who did not leave his name, passed by a place for 600 years.

There, the powerful clan controlled a thousand-mile radius, controlled more than half of the official positions, and all the county guards and county guards. They supported their own self-respect and disrespected orders. They had almost become a country in the divine dynasty.

There is a ground temple there, like a separate imperial court, the city god sits high, and the land, mountain gods, and river gods under it are all under his control, controlling all the resources within that area.

The most frightening thing is that the city god and the land are all members of that wealthy family.

The unnamed monk just passed by here and left in a hurry.

The prince frowned slightly as he looked at the travel notes.

The imperial fief only, only when the emperor writes the talisman with his own hand, can the imperial seal be completed.

Moreover, this imperial fief has always been extremely strict, and even if it is an imperial fief, the land can only be in the fief.

Furthermore, land, mountain gods, and river gods are all separate, especially the river god, which is directly under the jurisdiction of the imperial court.

The original intention of the fiefdom is to stabilize the place, the land has no rights at all, and it is waste if it is out of the fief.

Let them monitor at all times to keep one party safe. In critical moments, they can actually be used to take the blame.

Just like the river god, but a very risky place.

River diversions, embankment bursts, floods, etc., as long as a series of things happen, then the river god will most likely be pulled out to bask in the sun.

Many, many years ago, the rivers, lakes and seas were actually the territory of the Dragon Clan.

The position of the river god is basically granted to the family members of the dragon clan, or the blood of the dragon clan.

But later, if something happened, he would pull a dragon out to peel its skin and cramps, or pull the river god out to expose it to the sun and die, or just burn it to death.

Slowly, all the dragons retreated into the sea, and all the rivers and lakes were left alone.

The objects of the God of the River began to change into other things, people, demons, water ghosts, etc., are actually all possible.

Today, even if there are only the most powerful officials in the imperial fief, it is far from being so crazy.

In the land of thousands of miles, there are not only mountain gods, but also river gods and city gods.

Now there is no such thing as a city god.

Prince Dali went to see these materials in person and read them one by one.

After reading it, she pondered for a long time.

"A copy of all these rubbings, and send it to... Gu's family."

A few days later, Yu Ziqing received a summons from Lin Fu, with several jade slips attached.

When I opened it, I found that they were all records about Dadui, and basically all of them were late-stage materials.

After reading it, Yu Ziqing sat there frowning and meditating.

In the late period of Dadui, even the lands were confiscated at will, which is really desperate.

In other words, even Duihuang in the last period started messing around.

It is expected that he has long known that Ding Maoduihuang is not a good guy, but a stupid king, but he still did not expect that he would be so stupid.

Yu Ziqing couldn't help thinking about the question he had been thinking about for a long time.

Even if Dadui came back, what's the use?

Apart from reopening the Tenth Step Road, it seems to be useless.

And when Da Dui came back, he was also in the south of the wasteland. Under his nose, there was such a thing, wouldn't it be an eyesore?

But things have come to this point, and no one can stop it.

Yu Ziqing must find out what is inside the archway, at least to know himself and the enemy.

Ten days later, Yu Ziqing received another summons, Zhong Shouzheng's summons.

After walking out of Jinlan Mountain, he headed all the way to Dali, and when he arrived at the border between the wasteland and Dali, he saw Zhong Shouzheng, sitting in a gazebo in the wilderness drinking tea and pretending to be aggressive.

Yu Ziqing walked forward cheerfully.

"Senior, you took the initiative to come to me, but you made money again?"

Zhong Shouzheng couldn't pretend anymore, and laughed.

"That's right, they didn't dare to approach Jinlan Mountain at all, so they invited me here."

"what's up?"

Yu Ziqing probably had a clue in his mind, it must be that after those people entered the Dadui archway, there was no news for a long time, and something must have happened now.

"The suzerain of the Neri sect has fallen."

"do not know."

"One of the strong men who entered the archway, his soul lamp was extinguished, and when he was dying, he burned his soul and sent some news through the soul lamp.

Among them is Dadui in the last period. Demons and evil spirits are everywhere, the land is only for disaster, monsters breed, and there are many dangers.

Moreover, they haven't even figured out what is the disaster that made Dadui seal the entire Dadui.

More importantly, there was a traitor among them, and he was plotted against. "

"Huh?" Yu Ziqing was taken aback.

My boy, he had never thought of such a thing.

Those people in the archway didn't even rush to unite and think about how to solve the problem, but even backstabbed their teammates.

What's wrong with this?

"Do you know who plotted against him?"

"I probably don't know. The news he sent back didn't say anything."

"Then what did they ask you to do?"

"Let me ask you guys, Jin Lanshan, to help."

"Laughing to death, please let us make a move? Why should we make a move? I've said what I said before, and they haven't done anything, and they still have the face to ask us for help? They just want to sit back and enjoy the benefits?"

"Of course I know. I didn't want to come, but they gave me two natural treasures and said that it's not my fault if it's successful or not, so naturally I don't make money for nothing."

Zhong Shouzheng smiled cheerfully, he was not surprised by Yu Ziqing's reaction, and he didn't even think about being a good lobbyist.

Anyway, I just took a walk, watched the excitement, and took the benefits by the way.

By the way, let's see how Yu Ziqing's injury is doing.

"You seem to be recovering pretty well. Do you need treasures from heaven and earth? This time, I specially asked for a plant to nourish your health. Let's have one plant for each of us. Don't waste it."

Zhong Shouzheng stretched out his hand and took out a long jade box.

Yu Ziqing laughed out loud, this guy is really addicted to cheating.

Take advantage of one by one, take turns.

Yu Ziqing even felt that Zhong Shouzheng didn't want to be a neighbor, maybe because he came here, he couldn't logically slaughter those wronged people.

After all, in name, Zhong Shouzheng came here at a huge risk.

"Don't refuse, I don't need this natural treasure at all."

"Forget it, take it, I've recovered from my injuries, I don't need these things, and it's a waste to give them to me."

Yu Ziqing insisted on refusing to accept it. Zhong Shouzheng would definitely not accept the injustice that Zhong Shouzheng slaughtered with his own ability.

"Senior can tell those people when they go back, and it's not impossible to help.

But, I can't help in vain. "

"Of course it should be. If you are willing to help, then you don't have to worry about the other things. If I don't let them bleed, it won't happen."

"No, senior, it's almost enough, I've always been kind to others and happy to help others.

Since the governor is dead, I won't ask for too much, and I won't make them feel bad.

It's not impossible to help them go in and have a look.

It's just that, after I went in, I might not be able to come out of that place.

Moreover, listening to what you said, I think that there is a high probability that the suzerain of the Nirvana Sect was plotted against, not a traitor, but a monster.

I have been to many Dadui seals, and I know them best.

There must be some monsters that can pretend to be them, sneak in and wait for an opportunity to hunt them down.

The strong ones who can go there will always know that if they don't unite, everyone might end up together.

You tell them I want all the details of those people, the more details the better.

It is best to have records from when they were young to now, the more detailed the better.

In this way, if I meet someone, I must at least confirm my identity first, so that I can match up with each other.

I have to resolve their misunderstandings one by one and help them unite before I have a chance to resolve this matter. "

Yu Ziqing flickered with his eyes open, but what he said was not unreasonable.

Those people inside must be on guard against each other now.

If you want to unite, you can only have outsiders, and you must not have a close relationship with anyone among them.

The people from Jinlan Mountain are indeed the most suitable.

Zhong Shouzheng pondered for a while, and the reasoning was indeed the same.

Regardless of how to do it or what to do, you really have to unite first.

"Okay, I'll tell them when I get back."

"You tell them, if I can't confirm the identity of the other party, I will definitely not go, if I go to help, then there must be a chance to succeed, right?

I don't want to hide any news because of their deceit, and finally, let the monsters mix among us, and turn against us at a critical moment.

Let everyone die in it, and ask them if they can bear the loss of a dozen or so ninth levels.

Dadui can never come back, can they accept it?

Oh, by the way, give me a list of those people. "

"I'll take care of things, don't worry." After Zhong Shouzheng answered, he left in a hurry.

Yu Ziqing was waiting where he was.

In fact, he knows a hammer, so how could he know the details of it.

Regardless of whether there are traitors inside or not, he has to get the people outside to unite first.

People outside the province are starting to be wary of each other, and they're doing shit.

Take advantage of the trend and get some secret information.

Isn't that what you need to identify your identity?

Yu Ziqing could only acquiesce that there really was a traitor inside.

And it has to be acquiesced that everyone is a traitor. First get everyone's information, even if the information is incomplete and cannot be directly judged, then the foundation should be laid first, and then the missing very few short boards should be found.

While waiting for Zhong Shouzheng, Yu Ziqing contacted Lao Song.

"I need your help with something. One of the people who entered the archway has already fallen, do you know that?"

"Huh? Did one fall so soon? I haven't gotten the news yet."

"I want the detailed information of these people, the more detailed the better." Yu Ziqing listed the list.

Song Chengyue took a look and nodded.

"Okay, no problem, but some may not be particularly detailed, how often do you want?"

"Don't worry, detailed information is the priority."

"Then I understand." After the chat, Song Chengyue couldn't help asking: "How are the two of them doing?"

"Your son was beaten twice again, but your daughter is too sensible, and everyone loves her very much."

Hearing this, Song Chengyue immediately rolled his eyes.

"Hit it to death, as long as you don't kill it!"

"Don't shout loudly now, let me tell you, your son is going to train his body, maybe in a few hundred years, if he knows you, he will beat you to death first."

"Hahaha, that's the best, when he can kill me, then I will die in peace."

"..."

The corner of Yu Ziqing's mouth twitched. The brain circuit of a mad dog can't be the same as that of a normal person.

Yu Ziqing was too lazy to argue with Lao Song any more, and turned away from the ring on the seventh floor.

Lao Song is an insurance company here, and the information is definitely not particularly complete.

The point is, the information given by those big factions.

It depends on whether Zhong Shouzheng can fool them.

……

In the secret room of the meeting, Zhong Shouzheng sat there sternly, looking at the people who came to the meeting with a sneer.

Slap the two jade boxes directly on the table.

"You think that I care about your natural resources?

Let me tell you the truth, if I hadn't tried my best to talk and resorted to tricks, Jin Lanshan wouldn't have wanted to intervene at all.

You know what a fart, have you ever resolved a Dadu seal?

In order to show his sincerity, Jin Lanshan has worked hard and risked to resolve dozens of Dadui's seals.

Don't they know far better than you?
As soon as they heard it, they knew that this must be the work of a monster from the Dadu period, and they even knew what methods the monster would use.

Besides, in the matter of dealing with monsters, among you present, is there anyone who can beat Jin Lanshan?

It is fatal, the road to the tenth step.

It's still necessary to hide the shitty things about them wearing crotch pants to peep at women taking a bath, and harming their fellow apprentices when they were teenagers.

You choose.

Do you think I'm willing to help out as a lobbyist?

That's because I knew that little brother, who has always been a righteous person, probably has a soft heart, so I went.

Do you really think that I care about such treasures that I have no use for at all?

Pooh. "

Zhong Shouzheng faced a group of people by himself, saliva splashed all over the place, and the faces of all the people turned black, but they didn't dare to say anything.

Seeing that Zhong Shou was standing up and was about to leave, someone immediately stepped up to smooth things over.

"Calm down, I really don't have any other intentions to wait. Put away the things first and give them away. There is no reason to take them back."

After being sprayed, the feeling of wariness among the crowd dissipated a little.

If it is a foreign enemy, not a traitor, then the nature is naturally different.

"It's just some information, it's not a secret, there's nothing wrong with it."

"Don't be impatient, it just takes some time."

After everyone agreed, Zhong Shouzheng's tone became slightly better.

"Since you have decided to give it, whether you want to hide something or not is up to you.

Look at the hidden things, whether it is worth the lives of more than a dozen three-tribulation realms, and whether it is worth the tenth-order road. "

Zhong Shou is leaving.

Someone sighed.

"Of course it can't be worth it. I've worked so hard and spent so much money, how could I give up because of such a small matter."

"makes sense……"

a month later.

Yu Ziqing got the information sent by Lao Song.

And Zhong Shouzheng also sent materials from various factions and ethnic groups.

Comparing the two, Lao Song's is naturally a little less, but a little more dirty.

However, the materials sent by the various factions contain a lot of black material.

They were unwilling to accept the multiple-choice questions before them, so they could only hold their noses.

And I'm afraid that something crucial is missing, some sects even sent the rubbings of the exercises they have practiced.

Although this meaningless rubbing is useless, and it is easy to cause problems according to the practice, but the content is all right.

If you want to identify your identity, it is naturally a way to directly read the original text of the exercises.

They wanted to just give some other simple ways to distinguish, but Zhong Shouzheng was bluffing and bragging.

It's just a matter of saying that the monsters there have great supernatural powers and can turn into exactly the same people. From power to methods, and even things they know, they can be directly copied.

Even if some people think that there is something else wrong with it.

But who dares to gamble.

Can't afford to lose.

If you lose, not only will you lose a dozen or so ninth ranks, but you will also lose everyone's path to tenth rank.

Yu Ziqing studied the materials carefully first, and dragged on for another month before leaving the house with a bunch of subjects.

The old sheep wanted to follow, but Yu Ziqing refused.

Since a little news can be spread when someone is dying, there is a high probability that the ring on the seventh floor can still be used.

At most, it is face-to-face communication, which has become text communication.

It is better for Lao Yang to assist remotely than to follow up directly.

The head of the village was going, but Yu Ziqing didn't let him go. The future backer of Jinlan Mountain and the anchor of the village couldn't go out at this time.

Before he was sure what was going on inside, Yu Ziqing was not going to take anyone with him except Wanhun Banner and Lou Huai.

After leaving Jinlan Mountain, Yu Ziqing headed south all the way.

When he was about to reach the place, he saw a person waiting here.

"Old Shouzun, you want to go too?"

"You have gone, why can't I go."

"Aren't you afraid of being trapped to death inside?"

"I would have died."

Yu Ziqing arched his hands and made a gesture of invitation.

Just go, the demon of the old head, telling stories on the radio every day, it's not for nothing.

This old fellow is cruel and merciless, and Yu Ziqing has no intention of going with him.

Seeing that the old Shouzun entered the archway first and disappeared, Yu Ziqing was not in a hurry to go in, and just waited.

He walked to the side of the archway, stretched out his hand to touch the pillars of the archway, felt its breath, walked around every corner of the archway bit by bit, and wrote down the bricks and tiles.

After waiting for several days, Yu Ziqing stood in front of the archway and took a light breath.

"almost."

Taking a step forward, his figure disappeared instantly.

He landed in the void, lost the load under his feet, and his figure kept falling.

The surroundings seem to be endless void, just like the place where the book of An Shi is located, and there is an infinite stream of light passing by at high speed.

The great seal of the governor of Jiazi City on his body flew out by itself, hanging above his head, and shone with a trace of divine light, covering his whole body, making him stabilize his figure.

The stream of light around him suddenly turned into blurred pictures that flowed away rapidly.

Yu Ziqing controlled his figure and slowed down the falling speed, and the picture he saw became clearer and clearer.

Not long after that, he saw something familiar.

The strange fire was ignited, and the flames swept across, continuously igniting the whole world.

Every picture seems to have happened in the past, something more important.

Yu Ziqing naturally controlled it, slowly slowing down, and slowly inspecting.

Every picture is like a movie playing, and hundreds of movies are playing around him at the same time.

Slowly, Yu Ziqing saw more and more familiar things.

The seal he had dispelled, saw the fall of Jinlan Mountain, saw countless people starve to death and turned into starving ghosts, and saw the burning Baiyu Tower.

In the end, countless pictures were left behind as Yu Ziqing fell.

At the bottom end, countless pictures gathered together, turned into a huge picture, expanded continuously, and finally turned into a world, including Yu Ziqing.

The light was extremely dazzling, and when he closed and opened his eyes, Yu Ziqing felt the wind blowing in his ears, and a scent of wheat lingered around the tip of his nose.

There is a golden wheat field in front of me. At first glance, it is indeed a beautiful scenery.

However, Yu Ziqing sniffed his nose, and there was a musty smell in the wheat fragrance.

Going forward and taking a closer look, some grains of wheat have fallen off and become moldy in the field on the ears of wheat, and some grains of wheat have even germinated directly on the ears of wheat.

It looked endless, a large flat wheat field, but no one could see it.

And no one harvested the already ripe wheat.

Yu Ziqing looked around, took out the big seal of the sheriff of Jiazi City, tried it, and there was light flowing on the big seal, but he couldn't take him out of here.

I took out the other county magistrate's seal and tried it with the county magistrate's seal, but I still couldn't leave.

It was exactly as he expected.

This place looks like the seal in Anshi's Book, but it's different.

The seals in the Book of Anshi have a limited range, but here, Yu Ziqing has not felt the breath of a single person, let alone the breath of a ninth-level powerhouse.

Boundless.

Yu Ziqing broke off an ear of wheat grains, rubbed them with his hands, stuffed them into his mouth and chewed them slowly, a sweet taste of wheat fragrance in the jerky, slowly appeared, and there was even a faint trace of aura in it.

All this is true.

This is Dadui, everything that Dadui disappeared is here.

Yu Ziqing flew high into the sky and looked down at the land. Apart from the large wheat fields, some buildings could be vaguely seen in the distance.

But it's too quiet here, you can't see birds flying across the sky, and you can't see animals running on the ground.

Not even a living person was seen.

"Lou Huai, do you feel the breath of a living person?"

"No, not a single one."

Yu Ziqing fell to the ground again, restrained all his breath, and put on a black robe with the same hood as Zhong Shouzheng.

He slowly walked towards the group of buildings in the distance.

Halfway through the journey, the sun set and the sky gradually darkened.

The moonlight began to fall, and an indistinct murmur sang, floating from a distance.

During the singing, the moonlight slowly twisted and deformed, and gradually turned into strands of slender moonlight filaments, hanging down to the ground.

At this time, insects and birds began to appear, and in the wheat field, voles drilled out of their holes and gnawed on the grain that was everywhere.

The cries of wah-wah became one piece, and large black clouds flew out from the distant mountains, rushing into the wheat fields continuously.

Small animals such as voles and rabbits were picked up by crows and flew into the air.

While still in midair, a large group of black crows swarmed up, dismembered and devoured it in midair, and continued to search for other prey.

Yu Ziqing restrained all his breath, squeezed the Yin Jue with his hands, covered his figure, and stared at the black cloud-like crow, and rushed towards the sky again, as if gathering into a giant black python, moving forward with its head held high.

When the huge black python rushed to a distant mountain with its head held high, Yu Ziqing seemed to be alive when he saw that mountain in a daze.

A huge hand stretched out, grabbed the python's neck, and with a puff, the black crows scattered in the sky, and the blood rained down and fell into the mountain.

After a short while, everything returned to its original state, and those scattered black crows flew away again, continuing to hunt elsewhere.

Blood energy, evil spirit, and treacherous aura, all of a sudden, permeated the world.

Yu Ziqing walked halfway, and at some point in front of him, a big river appeared. When it was dawn, he was floating high in the sky and didn't notice that there was a big river here.

Under the moonlight, the river water of the big river reflected fluorescent light, making the river water appear pitch black.

A black-covered boat is operating on the river.

An incense burner with a diameter of three feet is placed on the bow, and an incense stick as thick as a human arm is inserted into it.

Accompanied by the sound of splashing water, the oars creaked and creaked. Behind the awning boat, large patches of bubbles appeared on the water surface, as if there were a large group of things following behind the awning boat.

The ignited smoke, accompanied by the falling moonlight, continuously fell into the water.

Yu Ziqing stood on the bank, looking at the river, his expression turned slightly cold.

His Yin God opened his eyes, and what he saw was another picture.

The incense stuck in the censer was randomly squeezed together with fingers, eyeballs, internal organs and other things.

Behind the black-covered boat, water ghosts followed, all vying for the bloody incense with evil spirits and resentment.

The boatman who was rowing the oar seemed to have noticed Yu Ziqing, and suddenly turned his head to look this way, revealing the dark eye sockets, opened his mouth and smiled, showing two gaping teeth, and propped the boat to Yu Ziqing's side.

"Brother, do you want to cross the river?"

"How much is the boat?"

"It's cheap." The boatman held out a finger.

"A what?"

"A stick of incense will do."

"A stick of incense like this?" Yu Ziqing pointed to the incense burner on the bow.

"No, no, just an ordinary stick of incense will do.

I give sacrifices to the God of the River. Only I can lead people across the river here. If I don’t take you, you can’t set foot in the Land Lord’s territory.

This is the rule, everyone has to go like this.

Not even if you are from the imperial court. "

Yu Ziqing took out a Lingyu.

"That's all, you don't have to do anything if you don't want me, you can't bear my fragrance."

The boatman glanced at Lingyu, and reluctantly accepted it.

"Okay, Lingyu is Lingyu, it's better than nothing."

Yu Ziqing stepped on the black-covered boat, and with the creaking sound of the oars, the boat slowly rowed to the other side.

Yu Ziqing could clearly feel that when he crossed the river, he felt as if he was walking through the river, feeling suffocated.

When they reached the shore, they suddenly heard the voices of people, and felt the breath of many people.

But before, when he looked from a high altitude, there was no one here.

After getting on the shore, Yu Ziqing looked sideways, and there was a temple standing on the shore not far away.

It looked like an extremely ordinary place, but in the eyes of Yu Ziqing's Yin God, what he saw was a completely different scene.

Those people were all as skinny as sticks, with pale complexions. Some of them were holding a sesame cake and chewing on it. In fact, they were holding a stick of incense and inhaling the aroma continuously.

In front of the temple, people kept entering it, burning incense and offering sacrifices.

In the specious breath, bloody, evil, and resentful were mixed...

Yu Ziqing listened to the conversation of those people and knew that this was the River God Temple, and they were all worshiping the River God.

A vague sense of peeping appeared, and Yu Ziqing immediately closed Yinshen's eyes.

Everything in sight has returned to normal. Those ruddy-faced people seem to be visiting a temple fair and participating in celebration activities.

Yu Ziqing didn't go there, he walked all the way to the distance, there is a town there.

At the mouth of the town, there is a two-story archway, which is written to Shaojia Town.

It was night, but the streets of the town were full of people coming and going, just like daytime, some were selling and some were buying.

All the shops are open, and there are big white lanterns hanging in front of the door, and the moonlight is shining, making this place look extremely weird.

As soon as Yu Ziqing entered the town, someone came up to inquire.

"Do guests need to stay in a hotel? There is only one inn in this town."

"Lead the way."

Yu Ziqing was led all the way to the center of the town, in front of a well-built earth temple that occupies a huge area.

"here?"

"It's right here. The inn is right behind the Earth Temple, but when you come to stay in the inn, you have to offer incense first. This is the rule."

After the visitor finished speaking, he saw that the bustling crowd in the street outside suddenly fell silent. Everyone turned their heads together and looked at Yu Ziqing expressionlessly.

"Oh, well, since it's a local custom, let's go." Yu Ziqing smiled and stepped into the Earth Temple.

In an instant, the street was bustling with people again.

Yu Ziqing's yin spirit slowly opened his eyes, and he saw this temple, with walls made of bones and faces turned into human skin.

The white paper lanterns hanging are like skulls burning with soul fire and screaming pitifully.

In the temple, the golden statue is a ferocious old man. The tributes in front of him are flesh and blood, and the incense is also made of flesh and blood. You can vaguely hear the screams when it burns.

Yu Ziqing sighed secretly, what he encountered just now when he came in was this kind of unreal scene.

The earth only transforms evil gods, and living people eat incense.

Even in the book of An Shi, such earth-shaking changes have never been seen.

Things here may be a bit difficult.

Yu Ziqing stretched out his hand, took out the incense stick in stock, lit it, looked at the statue, held the incense in his hand, bowed slightly, and inserted it into the incense burner.

As the green smoke curled up, the ferocious-looking old man inhaled lightly, the incense burned rapidly, turned into two light smokes, and was inhaled by him.

The next moment, outside the temple, people with pale faces appeared with weapons in their hands.

Some people were sharpening their knives outside, prepared a wooden bench, and placed a wooden basin in front of the wooden bench.

Yu Ziqing knew that he was going to kill him and take fresh flesh and blood.

Suddenly, the ferocious old man sitting on the altar suddenly changed his face, stretched out his hand and grabbed his neck, his complexion continued to turn black, he struggled to stand up, but suddenly fell off the altar down.

"The land master is dead!"

There was an exclamation, and the people outside scattered away.

The old man who fell to the ground, like a dying fish, pinched his neck and struggled continuously.

He was still hammering his chest fiercely with one hand, trying to spit out what he had just swallowed.
