Chapter 78: Hong Wu has become an evil demon, and the ghost path has appeared in a restless world

"Yes! I'm wondering about this! ”

Just now, Sister Qingyi came over with a few flying knives for me to see, but when I first entered the rivers and lakes, I didn't know much about these secret gangs in the rivers and lakes, so I don't know if Uncle Wu, do you have any clues here?

"Ghost road, ghost road, ghost is the way! Who is so capable? Can you invite this venomous cult that disappeared from the rivers and lakes a hundred years ago? Uncle Wu said in horror. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Ghost way, ghost way, when you meet a ghost is the way, what does this mean?" I asked.

Uncle Wu didn't answer me, but he suddenly fell into deep contemplation, presumably the word "ghost way" left an indelible horror in Uncle Wu's heart, so that Uncle Wu's hands trembled slightly when he thought about it.

After a long time, Uncle Wu let out a long sigh.

"Tiancheng, you are still young, it is reasonable to hear this name, this "ghost path" is the number one secret cult in the northwest hundreds of years ago! All the cultists know witchcraft, not only can they call the wind and rain, but what is even more terrifying is that the ghost Taoist leader is said to be a figure in the Hongwu period of the previous dynasty! The meaning of that sentence is that people in the world, as long as you encounter a ghost, you can only continue to walk on the road if you become a ghost! Uncle Wu said.

"Does that mean that if you meet them, you will definitely die?" The beggar was surprised.

Uncle Wu nodded and answered the beggar's question from the side.

Uncle Wu's words made everyone languish all of a sudden, the cult of the Western Regions hundreds of years ago, the martial arts demon that killed people without blinking, and the demon art that called for wind and rain, all of these things are unbelievable to us!

But that's already the case, and now I want to know more about the ghost path.

"Uncle Wu, can you tell me more about the Ghost Dao cult? I think we have to start from their origins to find the treasures! I said to Uncle Wu.

"This kind of secret cult is extremely secretive, and it may have already changed its flavor if it can be spread to the outside world, and I only heard people talk about it on the Silk Road when I was seven or eight years old. I was still young, so I don't remember very well, so I'll give you a brief explanation! Uncle Wu sighed and said.

All of us waited quietly for Uncle Wu's next story.

Uncle Wu thought for a moment and said: "I remember that it was when I was seven or eight years old, when I was forced by the pressure of life, I stepped into the rivers and lakes early, and was fortunate to be taken in by a silk patron, helped on the Silk Road, and started the work of leading horses and holding saddles, walking in the Western Regions all year round, during which I heard a lot of strange people and wonders in the Western Regions, and among those stories, the most shocking and timid thing for me was the ghost road that was said to haunt the desert in the Western Regions. ”

Speaking of "ghost road", we have to start from the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty. During the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang's great cause was first built, everything was not yet stable, and all kinds of remnants of the Yuan Dynasty rebelled under the rule of the Ming Dynasty, trying to subvert the Ming Dynasty and recover the Mongolian Great Yuan.

For a time, there were constant fights, killings, and wars in various places, and the common people were in dire straits.

Hongwu Zhu Yuanzhang was very angry when he heard the news, but the great cause had just been completed, the treasury was empty, and the troops were insufficient, so he really did not have the strength to eradicate these chaotic parties hiding in the dark.

But in the long run, it will definitely cause a bigger ****, so Hongwu Yellow Emperor will definitely not let this kind of behavior develop arbitrarily. So Zhu Yuanzhang secretly gave Xu Da a holy decree, asking him to find the rivers and lakes in the rivers and lakes, and let these rivers and lakes people eradicate these rivers and lakes scum through various means.

In just a few months, Xu Da found a special army composed of hundreds of Jianghu strangers from the people with a holy decree. Xu Da distributed them to various places and killed those remnants of the Yuan Dynasty who resisted, either openly or covertly!

The so-called "aliens" in these rivers and lakes are actually some Taoists who know witchcraft and magic.

This time, with the emperor's decree, they acted even more recklessly, burning, killing and looting, and persecuted a lot of ordinary people while suppressing the rebels, and complaining everywhere!

These things reached Zhu Yuanzhang's ears again, and Zhu Yuanzhang was first happy and then angry. The good news is that the chaotic party has been cleaned up, and the Yuan Dynasty forces that threaten themselves can finally no longer get up; The anger is that these strange people in the rivers and lakes actually learned the deeds of those remnants of the Yuan Dynasty, which is really scary!

Zhu Yuanzhang was worried that if these people continued to be presumptuous, they would endanger the stability of the imperial court, so he secretly issued a holy decree to Xu Da, sending the elite army of the Ming Dynasty to various places to encircle and suppress these bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods in the rivers and lakes.

At this time, the Ming Dynasty has been established for several years, the country is recuperating, the people are well-fed, it is the time when the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong, these bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods in the rivers and lakes were scattered and fled by the army of the imperial court, and they died and were injured, anyway, few people could survive in the end.

At that time, among these people, there was a very famous Fang Shi, known as the "Ghost Daozi", and it was this person who established the later "Ghost Dao" cult.

In just a few months, the ghosts, snakes, and gods in the world who worked hard for the imperial court were slaughtered by the elite Ming army, and all those who remained were elites with real learning or talent, hiding in Tibet every day and living a dark life.

The "Ghost Daozi" is an unwiped cult force entrenched in the Western Regions.

In order to retaliate for the treachery of the imperial court, this team often came to the Central Plains to carry out large-scale massacres and looting of the government and the common people.

For a while, people were panicked, and everyone did not dare to go out at night.

Since then, this cult force in the Western Regions has become famous, and the remnants of strangers from all over the country have gone to defect, and in just one year, it has developed into a huge sect with thousands of members.

The "ghost way" raised his arms and set up the "ghost way" cult, and the "ghost way" naturally became the leader of the cult.

These things were spread to Zhu Yuanzhang's ears, Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked, afraid that his development and growth would threaten his throne, so he sent Xu Da to lead 30,000 elite soldiers to the Western Regions to encircle and suppress, but it is a pity that these 30,000 people were beaten by these rivers and lakes in the desert and fled, and when they fled back to the capital, there were only three or four hundred people left.

Zhu Yuanzhang never imagined that his most effective general, leading the most elite troops, would not be able to encircle and suppress a few thousand Jianghu grass bandits, which was really a big shock. Zhu Yuanzhang was originally a member of the Ming Sect in the Yuan Dynasty, so he was very jealous of this kind of armed sect, fearing that the cult would eventually endanger his throne like himself.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not give up, and sent seven expeditions successively, but none of them achieved the desired results. However, this cult in the Western Regions has slowly developed into the largest force in the Western Regions and even in Mobei, and even Emperor Yuan Shun, who fled north, has to give up three points.

After Uncle Wu finished speaking, his tongue was already dry, but the story was far from over, and there were still many spies.

"What's so powerful about this ghost cult? Can Xu Da's 30,000 elite troops be buried in the Western Desert? I asked, confused.

Uncle Wu coughed dryly and said: "What happened during this period, no one knows now, the Ming Dynasty has been destroyed for so many years, and our Qing Dynasty has also passed more than two hundred years, adding up to a total of almost five hundred years, who else can live so long and tell the truth about what happened back then?" ”

When I was a child, I listened to the Uyghurs in the vicinity on the Silk Road, and every time there was a fierce battle between the imperial army, the sky would always be pouring rain, pouring down, lightning and thunder, thunderstorming, and a dark cloud would envelop all the imperial court troops, and when the dark clouds dispersed, the sky returned to normal, and all I saw was the bones of the white flowers all over the ground, and the weapons, clothes, and baggage of the officers and soldiers disappeared!

Moreover, what is even more strange is that every time they fight with the official army, they have never seen any figure of the ghost cult, and they always feel that the official army is fighting out of thin air and air, which is very puzzled! Therefore, the people in their vicinity all say that the cult ghost path is not a thing of this world at all, they are a group of demons from hell!

Since then, there has been no news of the "Ghost Dao" sect!

After listening to what Uncle Wu said, we all stayed in place in surprise, this sect of five hundred years ago disappeared for so long, and today it actually appeared on the ******** of our Wenbao Zhai, and easily stole the treasure of our town store, what is going on?

We have no grievances or enmity with that ghost cult, who has such great ability to invite this cult that has disappeared for a hundred years, I really can't imagine it! After such a toss, it is almost dusk, and there is no need for the treasure appreciation conference to continue! So, we sent the guests away, and after we were ready to clean up, we had a good discussion about how to recover such a treasure.

"Tiancheng, I have interrogated all the people present, but there is no useful news, I don't know how you will recover those treasures?" Brother Du came over to me at this time and said.

"Brother Du, you can come today, it is our greatest honor for Wen Bao Zhai, these few things that have been lost, it is not a moment and a half that can be recovered, we still have to think about it in the long run, today you are very tired, you can take someone back to rest first, I will inform you as soon as there is any progress!" I said with a smile.

"It's okay, this matter is really not urgent, but brother, if you need any help, you can use the eldest brother, just ask, as the eldest brother, I will not live up to our oath in front of Master Guan!" Brother Du said.

"Thank you, Brother Du, I need to go back to you!"

Let's send Brother Du away, and then we are ready to return to Wenbaozhai to clean up the mess and discuss countermeasures!
