Jizhou, luxury temple.

Twenty years of confinement is enough to smooth out the edge, quench the anger, and look down on everything. At that time, King Duan was angry at the slaughter of the village, and grounded the Ghost King and the Wind King here, but in the end, they were loyal, so they also transferred their families and guards, and there was no shortage of food and clothing, so in order to appease the people, they had to be wronged.

Prior to this, the Ghost King had long been considered the next Duan King, and he was in the city. Now that he has moved to the temple of luxury, the generals have avoided it, and the sudden coldness has made him see the hot and cold state of the world, and he has been thinking about it on the surface, but the violence in his heart is increasing day by day.

The ghost king had many wives and concubines, and had seven children, except for the eldest daughter, who had already married, and everyone else was confined here. The ghost king has been obsessed with making drugs all his life, and when he was confined to this, he was even more immersed in it, and the poison he made was superb. Duan Wang specially allowed his eldest daughter to visit regularly, and each time he would bring the materials he needed to make drugs.

The Wind King is completely different, he is a person with no ambitions, and he went out with the Ghost King twenty years ago, and he also acted according to orders. Although confined here, there is no need to pay attention to the government affairs between the palaces and His Majesty, nor do you need to participate in the party struggle above the court, and enjoy the family in peace.

The two kings are closed in one place, but they rarely communicate with each other.

The capital of Duanguo occupies seventy percent of the territory of Jiju, which is divided into an outer city, an inner city and a royal city, and there are tall walls and moats between the three floors. The outer city is a place of activities of three religions and nine streams, with restaurants, tea shops, and mansion shops lined up one after another, and it is very lively. The inner city was the area of activity of the princes and nobles, with the residences of various princes, sacrificial temples, hunting gardens, and the headquarters of mysterious organizations, and the headquarters of the Red Robe Army was located here. The royal city is the private territory of King Duan, the city gate is named after the four elephants, there are four gates of the green dragon, the white tiger, the vermilion bird, and the Xuanwu, which are guarded by the golden armor holy soldiers, and are forbidden to enter without summons.

The royal city is built on the mountain, the momentum is magnificent, the ancient trees in the city are towering to the sky, and there is a long corridor leading to the royal palace. In the middle of the palace is a huge lake, surrounded by many courtyards and pavilions. The main hall is built in the center of the lake, by 360 golden silk nanmu as the main body, the golden glazed tile is paved with the top, the white marble is the pedestal, the wall is embedded with nine giant pythons with teeth and claws, it is the place where the king of Duan works, there are inner halls and side halls around, and the stone pot hall is a side hall on the west side of the main hall.

In the stone pot hall, King Duan listened to the report of the comer, and said in a deep voice: "You mean, King Nu has found traces of the Blood King's rebellion?"

"That's true. The messenger knelt on the ground.

"I see, you go down. Duan Wang waved his hand, and the nightmare that lasted for twenty years finally had a chance to wake up.

The side hall is not big, there are eighteen ever-bright lamps on the left and right, and suddenly the third ever-bright lamp on the right flickered.

Duan Wang stepped back left and right, his fingers tapped on the table, and a man in a black robe flashed out.

"See Duanwang. The black robe knelt down and saluted.

"Yelin, are the two of them still quiet?"

"Back to the Duan King, the Ghost King has been concentrating on making poison, not arguing or complaining, and the Wind King is even more in a safe corner and does not ask about the world. Yelinga replied.

"Got it, you go down. ”

"Yes, Yelin is leaving. ”

King Duan summoned the Golden Armor Holy Soldier and ordered, "Move to the Luxury Temple!"

When the Ghost King and the Wind King heard that their father had arrived, they hurriedly knelt at the inner door to greet them, and the family guards knelt behind them.

"Son-in-law, see father!"

"Get up. "King Duan entered the temple, and the Golden Armor Holy Soldier found a clean room and guarded the surroundings, leaving only King Duan and King Feng in the house.

"Do you have a grudge in your heart?"

"Erchen didn't dare. As they spoke, they fell to their knees in fear.

"Hmm. Duan Wang picked up a wine glass on the table, played with it and said, "For twenty years, you have also been safe, and from today onwards you will no longer have to be confined here." These days, I have been thinking about it, after all, it is not easy to clear up the people's grievances, and it is also very difficult for you to go as a father. ”

The fear of the two has not diminished, but has increased.

"Do you know the Yaksha army of the Father?" said Duanwang, gently placing the glass back on the table, "There is a vacancy now. ”

There are three mysterious organizations in Duanguo, the Red Robe Army, the Yaksha Army and the Tiger Jiao Army, all of which are directly under the leadership of Duanwang and have the right to cut first and then play.

The red-robed army was led by the King of Banners, all dressed in red robes, and painted their necks and faces with the blood of giant pythons, like a bloody man, responsible for secretly guarding the royal city, no matter where anyone who threatened the royal city, they would appear.

The Yaksha army is full of dead people, and the so-called dead people are not really dead people, but in the eyes of others, this person is dead, and he is transferred to the army by changing his name and appearance, and even the closest people are not allowed to contact him again. Everyone in the Yaksha army has the surname of Ya, and Yalin is one of them.

The Tiger Jiao Army is the most mysterious of the three armies, and few people know about it among the princes and nobles.

Hearing King Duan mention it, the second king couldn't help but gasp, and joined the Yaksha, which meant that the death news must be announced first, and there will be no such person in the world from now on.

If a person dies as a Nakshatra, and if the Nakshatra dies again, it will be wiped out, and there will be a vacancy in the Nakshatra army.

"Father," said the Wind King, "I am a mediocre person, and I have no strengths or desires. Since the confinement, he has been introspecting every day, praying for his father, and repenting for himself, but he has long lost interest in the affairs of the world, and only wants to go incognito, return to the countryside, and hope for his father's favor. ”

When King Duan heard this, his eyes showed a fierce light, and a murderous aura emanated from his body. The Wind King seemed to have expected this result for a long time, and just knelt calmly.

"Father, I would like to join the Yakshas. The ghost king did not refuse, and secretly rubbed his hands, and the opportunity he had been waiting for finally came.

"Now that you have joined the ghost army, what are your family plans to do?" Duan Wang's sentence is both an inquiry and a temptation, after all, there are close relatives involved, how can you hide your identity and work with peace of mind.

"But it is up to the father to dispose of it. The ghost king did not hesitate at all, "Sister Le dared to beg her father for the matter, can she open up to the third brother (you can see the order above, the wind king is the third) and let him go." ”

For the Wind King, King Duan couldn't bear it, and waved his big hand: "That's it." Then he turned and left.

After King Duan left, the leader of the Golden Armor Holy Soldiers announced: "Respect King Duan's order, the ghost king Wei Mingmei Le does not think about repentance, and has been ordered to cut herself, and the family guards will be buried alive immediately, and sacrifice to the god of luxury." ”

Four golden-armored holy soldiers carried a corpse covered with a white cloth and walked out, and another team of golden-armored holy soldiers brought more than 100 people from the trembling Ghost King's family to the sacrificial ground behind the temple. At first, the howls and cries of the sacrificial ground could be heard, but gradually they were no longer heard, replaced by a roar that looked like a wild beast having eaten its contented meal.

The leader of the holy soldiers continued to shout: "Respect the royal decree, although the wind king has a heart of repentance, but still has resentment, now abolish the eyes, deprive the royal family and the name and surname, give the surname 'no Wu', remove the title of the wind king, and demote it to the state of the common people, and immediately set off without delay, and are forbidden to enter the inner city for life." ”

A team of golden-armored holy soldiers pushed the Wind King, who had taken off his crown and cloak and was dripping blood from his eyes, into the courtyard, and the Wind King's wife quickly got up to support him, and then ripped off the white cloth from his clothes to bandage his eyes. The Golden Armor Saint Soldier lit an incense stick and stuck it on the ground, and said, "Madam, go and pack your clothes quickly, and we will set off when this incense is burned out." ”

When the incense burned out, the Wind King and his family guarded more than 80 people were already standing outside the temple, urged by the Golden Armor Holy Soldiers to leave quickly, and ten Golden Armor Holy Soldiers plus 1,000 Fu soldiers were responsible for escorting.

The state is in the southernmost part of the country, the terrain is long, the land of poor mountains and bad waters, the place of exile of the prisoners, and the dispatch of Fuquan Day is halved according to the share rule. Criminals who commit serious crimes will be deprived of their surnames, and given the surname of sin, "Bu Wu" is one of the criminal surnames, and many people with the surnames "Bu Wu", "Bu Zhou", "Bu Yan", and "Bu Li" in Zhezhou are all sinners.

The Golden Armor Holy Soldier burned the corpse of the Ghost King in public, buried the ashes in the barren mound outside the city, and countless expedited horses drove out of the royal city, and a new notice was added to the side of the notice of the wanted Blood King: "The Wind King is famous, rebellious and unjust, and now his eyes are abolished, and he is demoted to a common people, and he is the state of the distributor; The ghost king is the head of all kings, and the people are vegetarian for a day as a sacrifice. ”

There was a crowd of people in front of the proclamation, and there was an uproar, and one of the people with a shaved head couldn't help but clench his fists.

In an underground dark room in the inner city, the ghost king took off his golden helmet and golden armor, changed into a black robe, picked up a red-hot soldering iron in his left hand and put it on his face, and his painful cry was held in his throat, becoming a muffled snort.

The leader of the Yaksha army said: "There are only dead spirits in the Yaksha army, it doesn't matter who you were in your previous life, now you are the 'Night Dead', the tenth everlasting lamp on the left side of the side hall. ”

There are a total of thirty-six permanent lamps in the stone pot hall, corresponding to the thirty-six yaksha in the Yaksha army, and when they enter the stone pot hall, the corresponding wick will flash.

"Yes. Nightshade respectfully agreed.

"I am your leader in the night, remember to kneel when you talk to me in the future. After saying this, the right hand exerted force, and an invisible force pressed down on the body of the night death, and the night death could not support it, and knelt on one knee.

"Lord Night, how can I become a leader?" said Nightshade through gritted teeth.

"Kill me. ”

"Aren't we already dead?"

"Oh, yes," Nightresan raised his eyelids, "then let me disappear forever." ”

"Yes!" Nightshade said, slowly standing up. Only then did Night Resentment realize that his skills were gradually disappearing, and he was no longer able to suppress this newly joined Night Death.

"Pounce!" Night complained as a mouthful of blood spurted out, "You actually poisoned me." ”

Nightshade sneered, "I'm just following the orders of my lords. He raised his hand and spilled a packet of powder, and before he could scream, the night grudge turned into a puddle of blood.

The first ever-bright lamp on the left side of the stone pot hall flickered twice and went out instantly. King Duan glanced up, revealing a complicated expression.
