The Heavens: Cross the World

Chapter 370 Sophistry, take action!
"Is this the underworld?"

Xin Shisi Niang couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

He looked like he was afraid that his voice would be too loud and attract evil spirits.

Feng Ji chuckled: "Yes, it is the underworld. The city in front is the city of Guobei County in the human world projected into the underworld."

"Then let's go into the city?"

Feng Ji shook his head: "Let's go, we are going to the City God's Temple."

With that said, he strode towards the city.

Xin Shisi Niang asked curiously: "Master, you said that the City God's Temple in the real world is obviously outside the city. Why is the City God's Temple in the underworld inside the city instead?"

"Is the layout of the city on earth different from that of Hades?"

Feng Ji nodded slightly: "Not only is the layout different, but the scale is also very different."

"Look at this city. Is it much larger than Guobei County?"

"Yes, why is that?"

Feng Ji shook his head: "I don't know the reason. I guess it's because the underworld is boundless and the place is too big. Be careful and don't let the ghost soldiers guarding the city see that you and I are strangers."

Xin Shisi Niang quickly shut up. Not only did she close her mouth, she also carefully surrounded her pretty face.

But at the city gate, a group of evil ghosts lined up waiting to enter the city.

The ghost soldiers checked one by one, looking very serious and responsible.

Xin Shisi Niang couldn't help but said: "These ghost soldiers are doing their best and are much more responsible than the human soldiers guarding the city."

Feng Ji laughed and glanced at her: "Why, have you been to a human city?"

"Hehe, I went there with my sisters before. At that time, the human soldiers who guarded the city wanted to take advantage of us. In the end, we relied on illusions to enter the city." Xin Sisi said.

Feng Ji smiled: "The world is as black as crows, why do you think these ghost soldiers are so responsible?"

"Ah? Master, do you know why?"

"Haha, today is the day of the City God's Examination. Officials such as Judge Lu of Hades are here. Can they, these ghost soldiers, not show off?"

Xin Shisi Niang suddenly realized: "No wonder, it turned out to be for the people above to see."

After a while, Feng Ji and the others were almost in line.

But at this moment, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came, and all the ghosts turned around to look.

But I saw a ghost messenger leading a white horse. On top of the white horse, sitting an octogenarian man, wearing cloth, his eyes were cloudy, and he looked like he was half asleep and half awake.

He seemed to be very curious about everything in front of him and kept looking around.

The ghost messenger leading the horse came to the city gate and did not line up. He just took out a token and shouted: "By the order of the Qingfeng Dian envoy, I invite the candidate 'Fang Youde'."

The ghost messenger at the door hurriedly opened the city gate and bowed to greet him: "Please come in."

The ghost leader leading the horse nodded slightly, quite arrogantly, pulled the horse, jumped in line, and walked into the city.

None of the lonely souls in line dared to resist or speak, so they allowed him to cut in line.

Not long after, Feng Ji and Xin Shisi Niang arrived.

The ghost soldier was obviously just an ordinary kid. He couldn't see through the two men's spells and let them into the city directly.

Feng Ji pulled Xin Shisi Niang up and said, "Follow me."

Xin Shisi Niang was dragged by him and couldn't help but quicken her pace and asked: "Master, where are we going?"

"Follow the candidate just now."

At that moment, Feng Ji used the teleportation technique. In an instant, he passed hundreds of meters and caught up with the galloping horse.

But I saw Gui Cha leading the white horse, and after a while, they arrived at a place like a government office.

The old man got off his horse in confusion, and under the guidance of the ghost, he entered the government office.

Feng Ji raised his head and looked at the government office. Its size and style were exactly the same as the dilapidated City God's Temple outside.

The difference is that the City God's Temple in the underworld seems to be quite luxuriously repaired, much more brilliant than the City God's Temple in the human world.

Feng Ji's eyes flashed slightly: "It's interesting. The City God's Temple, which doesn't have much incense in the human world, is actually lively and glorious in the underworld."

His figure flashed with aura, and he led Xin Shisi Niang straight into the government office.

As soon as I entered it, I immediately felt the Yin Qi approaching.

There seemed to be a lot of gloom in this government office. Feng Ji's heart moved and he raised his head to look into the main hall.

But he saw a judge in red official robes and an official hat sitting on the first seat in the center of the hall.

This judge has a beard on his face, a tall figure, and his Yin Qi is so solid that he looks like a living person. His body is extremely oppressive.

Obviously, this ghost has condensed the body of a ghost and a god, and I am afraid that it has mastered the laws of ghosts and spirits.

Feng Ji's eyes flickered slightly, and he used the law of cause and effect to cover himself and Xin Shiniang's figures.

Even though the two of them were standing in the palace, no one noticed them.

On the left and right sides of the ghost judge, there were two evil ghosts with green faces and fangs, one with a bull's head and one with a horse's face. The yin energy was flowing around their bodies and was extremely thick. It was obvious that they had understood the law of ghosts and spirits, but they probably had not yet achieved great success.

Next to the ghost judge, there sat an old man wearing green clothes and a black gauze on his head.

This is the only ghost official present who can sit down.

"It's Xue Shangshu!"

Xin Shisi Niang suddenly exclaimed in a low voice. Feng Ji turned back to look at her and asked: "Which one?"

"It's the old man sitting there, the one wearing the black gauze hat."

Feng Ji looked over and saw that the old man sitting there was actually Xue Shijun, the patrol envoy of the five capitals of the underworld and a minister during his lifetime!
He asked Xin Si Niang: "Who else do you recognize?"

Xin Shisi Niang looked around and saw that there were many people wearing official robes. Above the main hall, there were about ten people sitting, each with a table in front of them and the Four Treasures of the Study on it. They all seemed to be answering. .

Suddenly, Xin Shisi Niang looked at an official behind Xue Shangshu, and immediately said to Feng Ji: "That Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe and a Taoist crown is the Qingfeng Dianshi. I have seen him appear in the mansion of the Junjun's wife. .”

Feng Ji's eyes narrowed and he immediately looked in the direction Xin Shisi Niang was pointing.

But he saw a Taoist standing behind Xue Shangshu. The Taoist was tall and hidden in the darkness, and seemed very inconspicuous.

But he is full of Yin Qi, and his thickness is not inferior to that of a bull-headed horse.

Feng Ji suddenly sneered: "So he is Taoist Qingfeng!"

Without saying a word, he directly operated the law of cause and effect, and his eyes became transparent.

In the void, countless lines of cause and effect emerged.

Feng Ji ignored the cause and effect of others and looked directly at the top of this person's head.

But I saw that the causal lines above this person's head were not complicated, and three of them were very clear.

A causal line connects Xue Shangshu, the patrol envoy of the five capitals.

The next day, the line of cause and effect connected the old man named Fang Youde in the hall.

The third causal line is not linked to other places, but... linked to Feng Ji!

No, to be precise, it's not the link to Feng Ji, but the link to Feng Ji's storage bag.

Feng Ji glanced at his storage bag and suddenly showed a sneer.

This line of cause and effect is linked to the soul-calling flag in my storage bag!

Inside the soul-calling flag, Song Tao's soul was clearly there!
"Master, what shall we do?"

Xin Shisi Niang asked nervously, "The people standing here are all high-ranking ghosts and gods in the underworld. If it were in the past, no one like her, a little vixen, could offend."

Feng Ji smiled slightly and said: "What should I do? Wait and see, I want to see what trick this Taoist Qingfeng used to let his people win the City God Examination!"

The two of them remained silent for the moment, standing there and waiting.

However, I saw many candidates hurriedly writing and starting to answer the test questions.

Feng Ji and Xin Shisi Niang walked near an examinee and looked at the examinee's desk.

But I saw a test question placed on the desk, which read, "One person has two minds, one has the intention but no one has the intention."

This is the exam question.

The candidates racked their brains and thought hard.

Some people answered the questions with single-mindedness and pure ambition.

If someone has a will, everything will come true. Answer the question.

Each candidate has different ideas and methods of solving questions.

Feng Ji glanced at everyone and suddenly noticed the man named Fang Youde.

But there was a hint of joy in Fang Youde's expression.

Feng Ji walked to his side and looked at his answer sheet.

But I saw the sentence above that broke the title: "If you have the intention to do good, you will not be rewarded even if you are good; if you have no intention of doing evil, you will not be punished even if you are evil."

Feng Ji's heart moved. This person's breakthrough was definitely playing into the hands of the superiors.

However, there was something wrong with this person being so happy.

After a while, all the candidates finished answering and submitted their files.

A ghost officer handed the files to many officials present.

One of the piles was placed in front of Xue Shangshu, the patrol envoy of the Five Capitals.

Xue Shangshu read them one by one, and after a while, he suddenly slapped the bank and said with a smile: "Okay, what a good person who has the intention to do good, but does not reward him for his good deeds. Everyone, if you can get this volume, you can get the head of the case."

As he said that, he handed over the examination papers. Taoist Qingfeng on the side took the papers with a smile and presented them to the bearded judge.

But he saw him saying respectfully: "Principal Lu, please take a look."

Judge Lu, who was dressed in red robe, took the test paper and read it carefully.

When I saw the sentence "If you intend to do good, you will not be rewarded even if you are good; if you have no intention of doing evil, you will not be punished even though you are evil", I was suddenly stunned and a little lost.

"This sentence seems so familiar."

He glanced at the respondent and saw Fang Youde's name. He immediately looked up at the candidates below, found Fang Youde, and asked, "Who recommended this old gentleman?"

Everyone at the scene looked at each other, but Taoist Qingfeng did not speak.

Xue Shangshu, the patrol envoy of the Five Capitals, suddenly smiled and said: "This person is recommended by me."

Judge Lu turned to look at Xue Shangshu and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this man is very talented and has a clear sense of good and evil. He is suitable for use by our Chacha Division, but I don't know where he comes from?"

Xue Shangshu smiled and said: "Pan Lu, this Mr. Fang is a scholar in Guangping County. He is upright, kind-hearted, and has great merits. With his talent, he could have been promoted to an official position, but it is a pity that the world's officialdom is so limited." I am not as good as him, so I have failed many times. If I can enter the Chacha Department, I will use it to its fullest."

Hearing this, Judge Lu nodded slightly and said, "Since it was recommended by the envoy, I can't go wrong. Fang Youde, there is a vacancy for the city god in Guobei County. Are you willing to come?"

When Fang Youde heard this, he was immediately overjoyed and bowed quickly: "I am willing."

"Okay, if that's the case, then..."

"slow!"

Just when Judge Lu was about to announce that Fang Youde had assumed the position of City God of Guobei County, he suddenly heard a voice coming from the hall, interrupting his words.

The ghosts were immediately startled. They raised their heads and looked around, trying to find the person who had spoken.But they looked around each other, and no one could tell who was speaking.

Judge Lu couldn't help but look slightly solemn. He raised his head and looked around, clasping his fists and saying, "Who are the experts here? Please show up and see me."

Just as he said these words, suddenly, a spiritual light flashed in the room, and Feng Ji's figure appeared in front of the ghosts.

All the ghosts were shocked. No one expected that the visitor had been in the palace all along!

They didn't notice it!

"Who are you? How dare you break into Hades!"

The bull-headed ghost shouted fiercely.

Lu Pan and the five capital patrols made Xue Shangshu feel a little heavy.

Feng Ji appeared without any sound, and they were unable to notice it. This method alone made them understand that the person in front of them was not mediocre.

Judge Lu shouted directly: "Shut up."

The bull-headed ghost immediately closed his mouth, but saw Lu Pan clasping his fists and smiling: "May I ask this gentleman, why did you enter my underworld and disturb the city god's examination?"

Feng Ji smiled slightly and said: "Judge Lu, isn't there someone who has taken the position of City God? How come you have to re-appoint someone who is so good?"

Lu Fan was stunned and glanced at Taoist Qingfeng subconsciously. At this time, Taoist Qingfeng's expression remained unchanged, but his heart was already in turmoil.

He didn't know Feng Ji, but he had a bad feeling about this person who suddenly appeared to disrupt the situation.

"Who is this person?" He was surprised.

Seeing Judge Lu looking over, he spoke quickly and said in a deep voice: "I have spent too much energy on being a magistrate. I should give up my position as City God and give way to others."

Feng Ji stared at Taoist Qingfeng, suddenly laughed, shook his head and said, "I'm not talking about you."

Judge Lu couldn't help but ask: "This fellow Taoist, the city god of Guobei County has always been Taoist Qingfeng. Who are you talking about?"

Feng Ji grinned: "I wonder if Lu Pan knows someone named Song Tao?"

Judge Lu was slightly startled: "Song Tao?"

He has lived for too long, and many memories have been dusted. For a while, he was slightly lost in thought, lost in memories.

However, Taoist Qingfeng suddenly changed his expression and shouted sternly: "Who are you!"

Feng Ji chuckled: "Master Dianshi doesn't know me? Since he doesn't know me, why did he send people to sneak attack on me, and why did he provoke a conflict between me and Xue Shijun's family?"

Taoist Qingfeng was suddenly shocked: "What did you say?"

But there was already a storm in his heart!
He already knew who was coming!
Feng Ji!

"Damn it, why is he here! Didn't Mrs. Junjun deal with him? Didn't Cui Fuhai take action?"

He was shocked and angry in his heart, but his expression was full of surprise and confusion, as if it was really the first time he heard the name Feng Ji.

However, Feng Ji did not act with him. He directly took out a soul-calling flag and waved it lightly. Suddenly, a ghost appeared in the soul-calling flag!
The ghost's eyes were cloudy and confused, and he murmured to himself: "I am the City God... I am the City God of Guobei County..."

As soon as this ghost appeared, everyone was shocked.

Judge Lu immediately exclaimed: "Song Tao! Mr. Song!"

He seemed to finally remember who this person was!
At the same time, he lowered his head and looked at Fang Youde's paper. On that paper, he suddenly remembered the sentence "If you do good with intention, you will not be rewarded even if you do good; if you do evil without intention, you will not be punished even if you do evil."

It seems that this sentence was written by Song Tao a hundred years ago!

It was also the Guobei County City God test that year, and it was the same question in front of him. Song Tao relied on this sentence to win his admiration, and he was awarded the title of Guobei County City God.

However, he remembered that Song Tao asked him to take care of his elderly mother and was unable to take up the post immediately.

I agreed to the offer at that time. Seeing that the other party's mother still had nine years to live, she ordered Qingfeng Taoist Master to temporarily take over the post of Guobei County City God.

Only nine years later, Song Tao's mother passed away, but Song Tao also died with him. However, the ghost messenger who went to greet him did not receive Song Tao's soul. At that time, he sent many people to search for it, but never found it.

He thought that after Song Tao entered the underworld, he was intercepted and killed by some ghost king on the way.

Unexpectedly, Song Tao's ghost appeared again at this time!

His face was full of surprise and he asked: "Song Tao, why did you come here now? Where have you been in these years?"

Song Tao's soul was still muttering to himself, turning a deaf ear to Lu Pian's words.

Seeing this scene, Taoist Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief. Then his eyes flashed slightly and he took the initiative to say, "Sir, Song Tao's soul seems to have been severely injured and he is already unconscious."

Judge Lu swayed slightly, turned into a phantom, walked down from his position, and came to Song Tao.

He tested it for a while, then said solemnly: "Sure enough, I have lost my mind. Fellow Taoist, what is going on?"

Feng Ji kept watching Taoist Qingfeng's reaction. He was so calm that he didn't run away on the spot.

Feng Ji chuckled: "What's going on? Mr. Lu, you have to ask Taoist Qingfeng about this. I found Song Tao's soul from the body of Taoist Qingfeng. His body is hidden in Qingfeng Temple. , the body is formed with secret runes, sealing Song Tao's soul."

Feng Ji's words suddenly caused all the ghosts to be startled and turned their heads to look at Taoist Qingfeng.

Even Judge Lu looked at Taoist Qingfeng in surprise.

Taoist Qingfeng's face was full of astonishment, and he immediately became indignant and shouted: "Brother Taoist, how can you slander Pindao out of thin air? Colleagues, Pindao feels that Song Tao's soul may be held captive by this person. ! Now, taking advantage of the opportunity of the City God Examination, I came here specifically to disrupt the situation!"

Among the people present, there were many ghosts who were friendly with Taoist Qingfeng, so they subconsciously favored Taoist Qingfeng.

Everyone couldn't help but start talking at the moment.

"The envoy is an upright person and would definitely not do such a thing."

"Yes, this person's origin is unknown, how can we trust him easily?"

"I'm afraid this person has other desires."

"Dian Qingfeng, I believe in you!"

……

For a time, these ghosts expressed their stance one after another.

At this time, Xue Shangshu, the patrol envoy of the Five Capitals, also stood up and said in a deep voice: "This Taoist priest, do you have any evidence?"

Feng Ji chuckled: "Proof? I stepped out of Qingfeng Temple, and someone behind me deliberately plotted against me, and used the name of the lady of your house to find trouble for me."

"Moreover, Cui Fuhai, the land of Guangping County, has no grievances or grudges against me, but he set up a formation on the way. He even set up a killing array in the temple of the land early."

"Aren't these credentials?"

"If these don't count, then in Qingfeng Temple, this person's body is still there, and the seal on his body is also there. You can go and take a look."

However, Feng Ji's words immediately caused Taoist Qingfeng to shout: "That's nonsense. These are all lies you framed Pindao. You know clearly that Qingfeng Temple is the place where I became enlightened. I have already set up a large array there to attract ghosts and gods." How can we verify it if we can’t get close?”

Feng Ji raised his eyebrows and immediately asked: "So you have set up a large array a long time ago. No wonder no ghost has found anything strange about your body after so many years."

"Wantless, who are you and why do you slander Pindao again and again? How did Pindao offend you?" Taoist Qingfeng kept shouting with anger on his face.

It seemed as if he had been greatly wronged.

Lu Pan also didn't believe Feng Ji, and looked at Feng Ji with a cold look.

"This Taoist brother, what do you want? How did Song Tao die? Why is it in your soul-calling flag?"

"Also, which sect of monks are you from? Kunlun? Emei? Or somewhere else?"

Feng Ji looked at the room full of ghosts and couldn't help but shook his head: "Officials protect each other."

"Hey, if I wasn't from the famous family you mentioned, you wouldn't have arrested me, right?" Feng Ji looked at Judge Lu and suddenly laughed.

Judge Lu looked cold and said solemnly: "This is related to the death of a city god in my underworld. I cannot ask you to come to the Hall of Hell with me!"

Feng Ji laughed: "Penal Lu, you are an official of the underworld, but you still have no control over me, a living person. Whether I go to the underworld or not is not your decision. I am not here to avenge anyone!"

"Then what are you going to do?"

"Hey, what are you doing? Come for revenge!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Ji suddenly felt blood all over his body!
In an instant, the energy and blood all over his body rose into the sky, like a scorching sun. With a roar, his whole body was like a rolling oven, and all the energy and blood in his body suddenly exploded!

But behind him, he saw a sea of ​​blood rolling and surging!

His figure grew rapidly, and his muscles were bulging like a mountain of flesh!
The law of blood danced around him, like a terrifying bloody red flame. All the Yin Qi sizzled wherever it passed, and in an instant, it was stimulated by the Qi and blood and exploded.

Feng Ji suddenly struck out, so fast that all the ghosts in the room were caught off guard.

Even Judge Lu couldn't react immediately.

Subconsciously, the ghost law in his body protected his body. With a bang, his whole body was enveloped in Yin Qi, and his whole body was bounced away by the law of blood.

In an instant, he suddenly shouted angrily: "How dare you cause trouble in front of this judge!"

He waved his hand suddenly, and a judge pen appeared in his hand.

As soon as the judge's pen came out, he slashed towards Feng Ji!
However, Feng Ji had already taken action first.

His palm, like a giant muscular dragon, slammed into Taoist Qingfeng!

Taoist Qingfeng's face changed wildly. He did not expect that in this situation, Feng Ji would dare to take the initiative!
Seeing Feng Ji's energy and blood rising to the sky, instead of being afraid, he laughed ferociously.

"Idiot, this is Hades. In the underworld, what does your energy and blood mean?"

He took a sharp breath, and countless yin energy rushed into his body crazily.

In an instant, his size skyrocketed, ghost laws shrouded his body, and his aura soared!

In the blink of an eye, he reached the size of tens of meters.

But I saw him holding the magic formula with his hand and suddenly slapping the void.

In an instant, the ghost law transformed into a miserable green will-o'-the-wisp, and slammed into Feng Ji's arm.

Boom!

The will-o'-the-wisp burned instantly and ignited Feng Ji's arm.

However, the next moment, the sound of screams came, and it turned out that the one crying was not Feng Ji, but the familiar horse-faced ghost!
Taoist Qingfeng was stunned and blinked quickly.

But he saw Feng Ji still standing there, grinning as if laughing at his stupidity.

Taoist Qingfeng looked at the will-o'-the-wisp in his hand in shock. It was obviously flying towards Feng Ji, but it was not Feng Ji who was hurt!
And just when he was shocked and puzzled, suddenly, a mysterious light suddenly appeared in his chest.

A terrifying air-piercing sharp air came.

His face suddenly changed and he exclaimed: "Judge Pen?"

But he saw a stroke of brush cutting in front of him instantly.

Taoist Qingfeng was caught off guard and had no time to dodge. He hurriedly activated the ghost law all over his body and turned into a black barrier.

Boom!

The barrier was instantly torn apart by the pen, and Taoist Qingfeng screamed "Ah".

The entire arm was torn apart by the pen, and there was a layer of mysterious light around the wound, preventing his ghost law from healing!

He was suddenly shocked and angry and turned to look at the equally shocked Lu Pan.

"Lu Zhidao, you...what are you doing?"

Pan Lu looked solemnly and looked at Feng Ji: "You did it! What kind of magical power is this? Can it deflect my attack?"

Feng Ji's transparent eyes flashed at this time, and his heart was full of surprises.

After reaching the intermediate level of the Law of Cause and Effect, he can not only transfer cause and effect, but even the enemy's attacks!
"It is indeed a high-level law! It is only an intermediate level, but it actually has such magical powers!"
