The Beginning of Troubled Times Chapter Thirty-Nine: Lips and Teeth Cold
After interrupting the call with Xue Hao, Xu Changzhi saw the excitement on Hussein's face that could not be concealed. "Hussein's predecessor, is the K2 peak mentioned by Team Leader Xue and the K2 peak left by Pope Joseph one undetermined? Xu Changzhi couldn't help but joke.
"It's one, it's definitely one. The results seen by the 'Great Prophecy' never missed. Hussein said excitedly.
Hearing Hussein's affirmative answer, Xu Changzhi couldn't laugh with him anymore, and immediately asked the servant to take out the "Soul Gathering Flag" from the Xu family's treasury and hand it to Hussein. and wrote the coordinates sent by Xue Hao to Hussein, and at the same time repeatedly instructed Hussein to "gather the soul flag" not to open it before handing it over to Xue Hao, and sent Hussein out of the gate of Xu's house.
After sending Hussein away, Xu Changzhi sat in the hall and began to ponder. Although the news from Hussein was small, every one of them was absolutely shocking. Especially the sentence that came out of Charles's mouth, "In the middle of July, the nine stars are aligned, and the demon king is now." "This is a Chinese folk legend, and now even the dark races of Europe know this legend. Why do foreign dark races care so much about a Chinese folklore? And how did Charles evolve into the royal bloodline? Is it true that Charles's attack on the Holy See was only for the sake of the three holy relics? If it was really for the sake of the three holy relics, he could have obtained them by some means with less movement, and he didn't need to destroy the entire Holy See at all, so why did he go to great lengths to destroy the entire Holy See? A series of questions such as whether the dark forces such as the Drought Clan and the Demon Clan in China have colluded with the dark races in Europe kept coming to Xu Changzhi's mind. He tried to find a clue to sort out the problems, but he couldn't find them. After thinking for a while, Xu Changzhi stood up from the seat, and then his hands began to seal. With the successful sealing, a golden light appeared in his hand, and as soon as the golden light appeared, Xu Changzhi began to chant some inaudible spells in his mouth. As soon as the incantation was finished, the golden light in Xu Changzhi's hand shot out in front of his eyes and turned into a gate to the ghost city of Xudu. Bursts of yin qi surged out of the gate, and ordinary people would be shivering by the yin qi gushing out of the gate if they stood next to this gate. Xu Changzhi was not afraid of this yin qi, and walked into the gloomy ghost town as if he was in his own home.
After walking for about ten minutes in the ghost city, Xu Changzhi came to a pass before he saw the word "ghost gate" written on the city gate tower on the pass, and there was a ghost on duty before the pass. After the little ghost on duty saw Xu Chang, he immediately trotted in front of Xu Changzhi, and said respectfully: "See Palace Master Xu, I don't know what Palace Master Xu is doing when he returns to the ghost city this time?"
"Quickly go and report to the emperor, and say that Xu Changzhi has something important to report. Xu Changzhi said.
The little ghost on duty didn't dare to slack off, and immediately reported the news that Xu Changzhi wanted to see Emperor Xudu. A moment later, a reply came from the city for Xu Changzhi's audience. Under the leadership of the little ghost on duty, Xu Changzhi walked into the ghost gate in three steps and two steps, and came to the front of the palace of the Emperor Xudu. I saw a man sitting on the dragon chair in the main hall with a face like a crown of jade, wearing a nine-chapter law robe, wearing a crown of twelve beads, and holding a jade wat on his head, and behind the man stood two generals with a bull head and a horse face. And this man with a face like a crown of jade is the supreme god of the underworld of the underworld, Xu Changzhi immediately knelt on the ground and said: "Minister, the seven non-heavenly palace palace masters Xu Changzhi knocked on the emperor of Xudu. ”
"Xu Aiqing is flat," Emperor Xudu said to Xu Changzhi. "What is Xu Aiqing's so-called entry into the palace this time?"
"Emperor Bing, Weichen entered the palace this time to consult the emperor about something. Xu Changzhi said.
"Ask about something, but it doesn't hurt to say. Emperor Xudu said.
"This year's 'Ghost Festival', who will preside over the 'Ghost Gate'. Xu Changzhi asked.
"Xu Aiqing, why are you asking this?" said Emperor Xudu with some displeasure.
"Please also ask the emperor to make it clear, because this year's 'Halloween' is a bit special. Xu Changzhi said.
"What's so special, isn't this all the same as in previous years. Emperor Xudu said.
"Emperor, I believe you also know a folk legend in my Huaxia 'July and a half, nine stars are aligned, and the demon king is now'. This year is just the time of the Nine Stars. Xu Changzhi said. "And last night the Holy See in Europe was destroyed. ”
"What?" Hearing the news of the destruction of the Holy See, Emperor Xudu stood up from the dragon chair in shock. "The Holy See has been destroyed? Xu Changzhi, do you know that even if you are one of the six days of Luo Xu, if you dare to talk about it above my Xudu Palace, I will behead you as well. ”
"There is no half-truth in what the minister said. Xu Changzhi said. "Early this morning, Hussein, the former head of the Knights Templar of the Holy See, rushed to the minister's house from Europe and told the minister about it himself. The minister heard it clearly. And he also said that Charles, the leader of the Western Bloodline, has evolved from royal blood to royal blood. There are all kinds of signs that the remnants of the former demon king in Europe are preparing for the resurrection of the demon king. And I, Huaxia, as the core of the whole legend, are so quiet, I am worried that these are the calms before the storm, so I have the courage to come to ask the Emperor Xudu who is responsible for the opening of the ghost gate this year. Because the legend also says that the demon king will be resurrected on the 15th day of the seventh month, "Halloween". Therefore, the minister did not dare to slack off. I hope the emperor will make it clear. After speaking, Xu Changzhi knelt on the ground again.
"The resurrection of the demon king is absolutely impossible, after the demon king 'Chiyou' was defeated, his original spirit and body were sealed separately. The primordial god was sealed in the Heavenly Palace, and the physical body was sealed into a different dimensional plane. To resurrect him is simply nonsense. Emperor Xudu continued disdainfully. "The destruction of the Western Holy See can only show that Charles of the Blood Clan has swelled for a while after the evolution of the bloodline. A group of milky clowns who have not dried up are just a group of clowns who can't make any big waves. ”
"Emperor, the resurrection of the demon king would rather be believed than not. Xu Changzhi said. "If the demon king is successfully resurrected, he must first capture the present world to ensure his own logistics, then after the current world is captured, the next step is my ghost city and the heavenly palace, so if the current world falls, then my ghost city is also cold, and the day is not safe. ”
"Back then, the Demon King Chi You was sealed, but I and the Second Emperor of Yan and Huang Di did it ourselves, and these ignorant rats actually wanted to resurrect him, which was simply wishful thinking. Emperor Xudu said disdainfully, and after finishing speaking, seeing that His Royal Highness Xu Changzhi still couldn't kneel for a long time, Emperor Xudu pondered for a moment and then said: "But Xu Aiqing, what you said is also right, this matter would rather be credible than not, after all, it is a matter of the survival of the present world and my ghost town, even rumors must be investigated, otherwise it will cause unnecessary panic, and it will be troublesome if someone takes the opportunity to make trouble." You don't have to worry about the 'Halloween Festival', because this year's opening of the ghost gate is in charge of the Eastern Ghost Emperor Yu Lei and Shen Di, who have always handled things safely. It seems that the old man has not asked about the world for a long time, do these demon remnants in the current world think that my ghost town is empty. ”
"The Emperor is angry," after hearing that the Emperor Xudu finally paid attention to this matter, Xu Changzhi replied: "The minister thinks that the ghost door is wide open, and the hundred ghosts travel at night, this matter is not trivial. I'm afraid my ghost town has suffered a lot of losses. ”
After listening to Xu Changzhi's words, Emperor Xudu thought for a while and said: "That's right, the two of you will give an order to the Ten Palaces Yama in a while, and all the guards and soldiers of the 'Ghost Festival' will be doubled this year, and the punishment for all ghosts who violate the order will be doubled during the Ghost Festival." After speaking, the Great Emperor turned back to Xu Changzhi and said: "Xu Aiqing, the Seven Non-Heavenly Palaces of the Sect Spirit that you are in charge of are also responsible for assisting the Eastern Ghost Emperor and the Ten Hall Yamas to do a good job in the safety of this 'Ghost Festival', don't let the Drought Clan and the Demon Clan take advantage of the loopholes." ”
"Wechen took the order. Xu Changzhi replied.
"Alright, if it's okay, you can step down. Since I have decided to beware of this matter, the power of my ghost town alone is not enough, and I have to go to the Emperor of Heaven to discuss countermeasures. Emperor Xudu said. After speaking, he got up and sent Xu Changzhi away, and then disappeared on the dragon chair.
