Chapter 228: Corpse Fire
From this day on, Wu Mian and Gui Fei are considered to be living here. And the chief manager still informs King Huainan of the news here every day, but after this day, the same news will have to be returned first. After there was nothing out of the ordinary, the chief steward used carrier pigeons to bring the news to the hands of the king of Huainan.
This can only be regarded as a small episode, Wu Mian and the main thoughts of not returning are still used on the body of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu. With the cooperation of the general manager, Wu Mian found an opportunity to release the soul of the overlord of Chu again. This time, the old guy learned to be obedient, and after releasing Xiang Yu, he hid by Wu Mian's side.
Almost the same as last time, as long as no one stimulates Xiang Yu. He is still polite and polite, and except for Yu Ji, he never said anything about how he almost dominated the world back then. Taking advantage of the fact that the former overlord had no lethality, Gui Bugui cautiously stepped forward and checked his body.
For those who don't use spells, Xiang Yu's body is still like air. But after all, it is also a famous place for Fangshi, and it didn't take long to find out the problem. After the old guy snorted his teeth, he said, "It's really a bit troublesome, the soul of the overlord has been tempered by corpse fire." Even if he is sent to reincarnation now, he will not dare to take him in. ”
"Corpse fire?" Wu Mian seems to have said these two words together, but when he thought about it, he couldn't think of where he had heard it. Seeing Wu Mian's frowning appearance, he opened his mouth and said: "The corpse fire appeared when King Wu was defeating the Emperor of the Martial Arts, and it was the fire that burned the King of the Martial Arts in Lutai. Legend has it that the corpse fire was a fairy fire picked up by the Emperor of the Emperor from the Tomb of the Emperor, and after the King of the Emperor was burned, the fire was uncontrollable and the entire palace was burned down. King Wu's army withdrew though. However, more than 3,000 people were burned to death by the palace attendants, palace maids and slaves. At that time, the fire could not be extinguished by manpower, and even the warlocks in the army of the Warrior King borrowed rain for twelve hours could not be extinguished. In the end, the fire continued to burn for three days and three nights, and after the entire palace was burned down, there was nothing to burn, and the fire was slowly extinguished. ”
After saying that he would not return, Wu Mian still couldn't figure it out. At that moment, he frowned and said to the returnee, "Why haven't I heard this?" I had seen the word corpse fire in the records of the Qin Palace's Fang Shi before, and I brought it with just a few strokes. The origin of the corpse fire is not detailed, and anyone who looks at it will confuse it with ordinary ghost fire. ”
"Of course you can't see it, almost all of the books left outside about the corpse fire have been burned." Looking at Wu Mian's even more incomprehensible eyes, he smiled with great satisfaction, and then continued: "This is still a decision made by your senior brother Yan Aihou, when Lutai was on fire, the warlocks of the Martial King's army saw that the fire was too evil. He secretly kept a little tinder, and then took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, and he couldn't wait for King Wu to canonize the vassal states. At that moment, he quietly took the fire into the old forest on his body and began to test the fire. But what he didn't expect was that almost everyone at the time was wrong about the fire that year. It wasn't a fire that burned down the entire palace at all, it was only the souls of the king and the people in the palace that day. It's just that the temperature after this soul burned was too high, and it ignited the entire palace. “
When he said this, he paused for a moment, glanced at Wu Mian, who was still listening to him, and smiled very contentedly, before continuing: "This is the corpse fire, and later this warlock discovered that the corpse fire can refine the soul, as long as the size of the corpse fire is controlled, the soul can be refined into an indestructible monster." The greater the ability of the soul, the more powerful it will be to become a monster, and it is only the command of the person who refines it.
Later, this kind of corpse fire spread, and there were a few unvirtuous bastards who couldn't wait to collect the souls of the dead and start killing the living to refine the souls. At that time, in several vassal states, village by village was slaughtered by monks. Later, your senior brother Yan Aihou learned about the corpse fire, and said that those monks who refined souls violated the way of heaven and led people to kill almost all the monks who used corpse fire to refine souls. All the corpse fires were extinguished, in case someone tried to find a way to restrain the corpse fires. Yan Aihou relied on his identity as the monarch of Yan State to contact the princes of the world, including Zhou Tianzi. Zhou Tianzi issued an edict that all the books and slips related to corpse fire in the world's monk sects were collected and destroyed, and no one was allowed to mention anything about corpse fire after that. There are monks who secretly possess these books and Janes and punish them for murder, and the later Yan Aihou established a sect of monks, which cannot be said to have nothing to do with this. ”
After saying that he would not return, Xiao Rensan came out of the ground with his little head and said to the old guy: "Old immortal, didn't you say that the corpse fire has been extinguished?" How did this come up again? ”
"I'm going to ask the person who refined Xiang Yu." When he spoke, he said to Xiang Yu: "Overlord, do you remember when you were in Wujiang, who roasted you on the fire?" Think about it. I'll avenge you, old man......"
"Roast on the fire?" After Xiang Yu glanced at the return, the hair on his whole body stood up, and said to Wu Mian and the return: "Who dares to treat me like that!" I'm Xichuba......" Just when Wang Zi was about to exit, Wu Mian saw that he was about to change into the previous state again, so he took the first step and knocked Xiang Yu down with one finger.
Just when he was about to take Xiang Yu's soul back into his body again, in the ruins opposite the three of them, a shrill voice suddenly came out: "I didn't expect that there would be people in this poor country who knew about the existence of corpse fire, okay, for the sake of you who have read for a few days, leave Xiang Yu's soul behind, and you can go......"
As he spoke, a tall middle-aged man came out of the ruins on the opposite side. After this man came out, his body exuded this white qi that seemed to be nothing. After appearing, he glanced at the three people and said, "We are all people who have taken the elixir, but I promised others that I must bring back Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu." That person calculates that you will find that this soul has been refined, but there are still people who can know that there is still corpse fire, and he should not have thought of this. ”
When he said this, Xiao Rensan's body was short and had already burrowed into the ground again. Xiang Yu's soul received his body, and then quickly hid behind Wu Mian. Behind Wu Mian's back, he said to the middle-aged man: "Can't that person come in person?" Didn't he always send puppets before? How? Not even a puppet this time? Or are you the puppet of that man? ”
After seeing that Xiang Yu's soul was taken back into his body, the middle-aged man who came from the ruins frowned, and then began to walk slowly towards Wu Mian and the side of no return. As he walked, he said to the two people opposite, "Is there no need to say it?" ”
When the last word came out of his lips, the middle-aged man suddenly raised his hand and slashed at Gui Bugui and Wu Mian. At the same time as the man's hand fell, a gust of wind rushed towards the two men. Wu Mian sneered, and was about to make a move next, when his heart suddenly moved, and he pulled the back of the non-returnable dodge to avoid this wind. While the two of them were dodging, a large chunk of the two big trees where the two people were just now were dug up by the middle of it. The upper part of the two large trees could not bear the weight and collapsed with a bang.
Originally, this kind of technique did not have any pressure on Wu Mian and not returning. However, there was no broken wood or anything like anything on the ground of the two large trees, and the missing part in the middle seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. If it was against Wu Mian and Gui Hui's head just now, then even if the two of them had an immortal system, they would have lost their lives for a long time.
And after the middle-aged man saw that he missed the blow, the expression on his face also became weird. At the moment, when he was about to come back to Wu Mian and whether he would return or not, the white-haired young man opposite Leng Buding shouted at him: "It's my turn......
