Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Secret of the Dead City
"Do you know the origin of this vain dead city?" At this time, Chen Feng looked at Luo Qing and asked softly.
Luo Qing smiled, so he turned on his storytelling mode and said: "The City of Death is a residence in the underworld, a bit like the hell of the underworld, but not everyone will be imprisoned in it, only those who have been unjustly killed and died in vain will be detained in the City of Death......"
However, it is not so much a prison as a soul reform center, because although the person who dies in vain is said to be a vain death, not only can the soul not be sublimated after death, but also cannot be transcended, so it has to go through a period of transformation.
During the period of vain death, the judges of Hades cannot immediately condemn you to the passage of reincarnation.
It's as if people of the same kind need to be placed in the same kind of group before they can be distributed and transformed, and the city of the dead is such a place.
Due to suicide, disasters, wars, accidents, murders, and so on, those who die unjustly are called vain death, and there will inevitably be a bad breath and unwillingness in their hearts.
Therefore, after the death of the vain death, they will be directly sent to the vain death city to be locked up, these people can live like normal people in the yang world, but they do not have any personal freedom, can only move within the city area.
They will live in the city of vain death until the culprit who murdered them dies and is taken into custody by the judges of the underworld, so that the evil breath in their hearts can be released, so that they will not become ghosts and wander in the world.
Although the people who died in the city said that they were locked up in the city for reincarnation because of accidents or human persecution, their longevity was not exhausted, but this did not affect their reincarnation.
Because you died in vain, first of all, the stewards of the underworld must first help you get justice, bring the people who persecuted you in your life to you, and help you out of this evil breath, and only after this work is completed, can they release you out of the city.
Those who have left the city of the dead are no longer lonely ghosts, and the stewards of the underworld will judge you accordingly through your good and evil behavior during your lifetime.
Whether you will be reincarnated as a human or reduced to a beast in the next life depends on your good and evil performance during your lifetime.
Luo Qing made up a lot of legends he heard in one go, and then told Chen Feng one by one.
In the end, Chen Feng only replied to him: "What you said is all legends, and they are all things without evidence!"
Hearing this, Luo Qing was also speechless, so he said angrily: "I only know the legendary things, you have to ask me, and I didn't force you to listen to it." ”
Hearing this, Chen Feng really didn't know how to answer Luo Qing's goodness, so he had to smile helplessly, and then said: "Okay, then I'll tell you the origin of this vain city!"
"Do you know the origin of this city?" Luo Qing said in surprise.
Chen Feng nodded and said, "I know a little bit about it, it is said that the Vain Death City is the headquarters of the Netherworld Sect, and they call it the Holy City, but no outsider has ever known the exact location of the Vain Death City. ”
"This is the headquarters of the Netherworld Sect?" Luo Qing said in surprise again.
Chen Feng said: "It should be, back then, the Netherworld Sect was the largest church in Yuedi, they did evil things, and they sacrificed people alive at every turn, saying that they were going to sacrifice to some tree god, and they lived through the tree god to increase their strength and immortal power." ”
Hearing this, Luo Qing shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said, "How can there be any immortal power in this world, if there is such power, then the Yin Netherworld Sect will not be destroyed later." ”
"Although they do not have the power of immortality, they do live with a kind of self-healing power. At this time, Chen Feng paused, and then continued: "It is precisely because they have obtained this self-healing power that although the Yin Netherworld Sect was destroyed under the encirclement and suppression of the major factions at the beginning, it also caused huge losses to the major brands. ”
"Self-healing power?" Luo Qing said curiously.
"That's right, the power of self-healing, if they don't die on the spot, they can heal themselves, but there is a limit to the number of times, and many masters of the big faction are because of this, so they can't be prevented, and they are killed and fall in the end. Chen Feng told Luo Qing everything he knew.
The power of self-healing, which made Luo Qing sigh, this is simply a whole sect of Wolverine, this fight, as long as he is not killed, he has a chance to turn the tables.
However, at this moment, Luo Qing seemed to realize something, and said: "Tree God, immortal power, self-healing power, this shouldn't be an immortal tree, right?"
Hearing this, Chen Feng frowned, and instantly smelled that someone seemed to be planning some earth-shattering conspiracy, so he said: "I heard from you earlier, little brother, that you met someone from Tianyi Sect in Xiaogu Village last night. ”
Luo Qing nodded and said, "Not only did I meet, but I also fought it!"
"What did Chen Zhutou find?" Luo Qing asked.
"It's strange to have one thing at a time!" Chen Feng pondered for a moment, and then said, "I heard that when the last group of remnants of the Netherworld Sect were fleeing, the Tianyi Sect was in charge of pursuing, but after the people and horses of the Tianyi Sect came back, they said that those remnants were dead, but they didn't bring any corpses back. ”
"But Chen Zhutou thinks there is something suspicious here?" Luo Qing asked
Chen Feng nodded and said, "But there is something suspicious, according to the explanation of the Tianyi Sect at that time, it is said that those people of the Yin Netherworld Sect finally jumped off the cliff and died. ”
"Does anyone believe this?" Luo Qing was even more speechless, first of all, these people are all cultivators, how can they die by jumping off a cliff, and then they have the power of self-healing, as long as they don't die by jumping, they will be a living person when they turn around.
"At that time, there were also suspicions, but at the beginning of the alliance stage, they were not easy to say anything without evidence, and there were no incidents of the Netherworld Sect harming people in the next few years, so those suspicions were gradually not raised. Chen Feng explained.
Luo Qing pondered for a moment, and then said: "At the beginning, the Tianyi Sect said that the remnants of the Yin Netherworld Sect had all jumped off the cliff and died, but for example, the disciples of the First Sect today knew the exact location of the Vain Death City, which contradicted each other, so there is a possibility, that is, those remnants were hidden by the people of the Tianyi Sect. ”
Hearing this, Chen Feng also nodded, expressing his agreement with Luo Qing's statement.
"Okay, since we have arrived at the gate of the city, then let's go in and take a look, this city of vain death is also the holy city of the Netherworld Sect, presumably they were in a hurry to evacuate at that time, and it is estimated that there will be a lot of treasures in it that have not had time to take away!" Luo Qing said as he walked directly into the city.
"Little brother doesn't know, the Netherworld Sect regards the city of vain death as a holy place, so the treasures in it can only enter, and they will not be taken out of this city. Chen Feng said, then followed behind Luo Qing and entered the city directly.
"That being the case, the treasures in there will definitely be first-class peerless treasures, otherwise, there are so many treasures in the world, wouldn't a city have already been filled. After listening to what Chen Feng said, Luo Qing smiled.
"Perhaps, but I've heard of it, and the truth needs to be studied. Chen Feng said.
"Okay, then we'll give it a good look at it today. Luo Qing said with a smile.
The reason why Shilipo is called Shilipo is because it is surrounded by slopes on all sides, and the center is like a small basin, and the slopes on all sides are exactly ten miles from the east slope to the west slope, and from the south slope to the north slope is also exactly ten miles, so the Shili slope is named.
According to Luo Qing's estimates, it probably occupies the entire underground of Shilipo, and the area is almost as large as Shilipo.
There are many pavilions in the city, and the buildings of different sizes and styles are similar, and there are similarities with some cities on the ground, but at the same time there are different places, in short, it looks like there is a special feeling.
There is a palace in the center of the city, and the decoration of the palace is not like a royal palace on the ground, but more like an architectural style from the underworld, which is full of gloomy.
Luo Qing and Chen Feng went directly to the palace as soon as they succeeded, because everyone knew that if there was a treasure, then it would definitely be placed in the palace.
When they reached the gate of the palace, they saw a huge plaque hanging on the door of the palace, and the plaque was engraved with three huge blood characters - the Temple of Vain Death.
The three words are bright red, as if they were just smeared with blood, bewitching and weird, if it weren't for the fact that both of them had seen more life and death, so they would be much more courageous than ordinary people, and if they were less timid, they would probably be scared and fainted.
The door of the Temple of Vain Death was closed, but fortunately it was not tied inside, so the two of them gently pushed a few times, and the door of the temple was directly opened.
The door of the temple opened, and the air flowed instantly, and a stream of dust rolled in front of them, directly staining the faces of the two of them white, as if they had just come out of a flour pile.
After cleaning up the dust on their bodies for a while, the two walked into the Hall of Vain Death, but when they walked into the main hall, it made people feel that this hall was much weirder than the outside.
The two sides of the main hall were filled with all kinds of strange statues, which were placed in similar positions to the positions of the ministers in the early days of the emperor's reign, as if they were worshipping something.
There are two side halls next to the main hall, for the sake of safety, the two decided to advance and retreat together, first entered the first side hall together, only after entering the hole, it turned out that it was empty, and there was not even a table and chair.
Because he was unwilling, Luo Qing also spread his spiritual power to every wall, every brick and every corner and crevice, trying to find out if there was a hidden grid or something, but the result made him disappointed.
Since there is nothing to gain. The two had no choice but to leave the first side hall and come to the second side hall, but when they entered the second side hall, what they saw was even more shocking to them.
The whole side hall, nothing, just next to the door there is a potted plant, the potted plant is planted in a small tree, the small tree is only the size of a palm, but it is green, these decades have passed, it stands to reason that no one watered, this tree should be withered, but it is green, not even wilted, let alone withered.
"Don't tell me, this tree is the god of trees?" Luo Qing was a little crying and laughing, and pointed to the potted plant and said to Chen Feng.
Hearing this, Chen Feng also smiled bitterly, this is completely different from what he learned, the treasures of the Holy City that were said to be good can only enter and exit, where are the treasures now?
"But don't you think this tree is a little strange?" Chen Feng said at this time.
This tree is indeed very strange, why it grows in a pot but does not wither for decades, why the whole side hall does not place anything, but it is placed in such a potted plant.
"Could it be that there is a mechanism under this potted plant?" Luo Qing pondered for a moment, thinking that this might be the case, so he said to Chen Feng.
After speaking, Luo Qing didn't think too much, he directly held both sides of the potted plant with both hands, and made a fierce force, wanting to pick up the potted plant, but in the next moment, due to the excessive force, he sat directly on the ground, and the potted plant was also tightly held in his hand.
"Why isn't it a mechanism?" Luo Qing looked surprised.
At this moment, the sound of someone talking came from outside the main hall, so Luo Qing directly threw the potted plant into the life ring, and the two quickly found a place to hide.
