Chapter 133: Yin Devouring King
In order to find out what the black-clothed messenger was doing, Hong Daoshi quietly followed. When Hong Daoshi closed the Heavenly Eye, these four people disappeared immediately, and when he opened the Heavenly Eye, these four people appeared again, and Hong Daoist judged that they were acting in a stealthy manner. Pretending not to see them, Master Hong walked behind them with a flashlight.
Seeing that Hong Daoshi had caught up with them and was about to collide with them, Hong Daoist did not dodge, and directly collided with them, passing through. Instead of being annoyed, these men in black were even more convinced that Master Hong didn't see them, so they dared to pass through their bodies. At a fork in the road, the black-clothed messenger took the left road, and in order not to arouse their suspicion, the Hongdao master took the right road. After walking a distance, Hong Daoshi went around again, continued to follow them, turned off the flashlight, opened the eye of the sky, and tried to hide his whereabouts as lightly as possible.
The four men came to a hill, found a grave, and dug it with a shovel. The tomb was full of mounds, and there were no stones, so it was easy to dig up. Digging through the dirt, I saw a thin-skinned coffin. When the coffin was opened, the body inside did not decompose, but became a dry mummy.
It turned out that the deceased had been dead for two years. He has been having strange movements before he dies, first of all, he does not eat or drink, only drinks cathartic and vomiting drugs, and almost excretes or induces vomiting of everything in his body that has water. In addition, she also consumes large amounts of cinnabar. Due to the almost non-existent presence of water on his body, coupled with the antiseptic effect of cinnabar and the nourishment of Feng Shui, his body did not decompose after death, and became a mummy with intact internal organs, which was more valuable than those mummies in Egypt without internal organs.
The four men wrapped up the mummy, buried the soil in the grave, restored it to its original state, and carried the mummy away. Hong Daoshi closed the eye of heaven and could see the four men in black, it seemed that they had already appeared. Because the mummy is a physical object and has quality, if the man in black is not visible, they cannot carry it away.
Bypassing the two hills, the man in black took to the col under the Jinguang Valley in Banpo Village, Calamus Township, threw the mummy on the stone tablet engraved with the secret spell, and then worshiped on the ground reverently to welcome the arrival of an important person. In the faint starlight, a gust of wind blew, and a cloud of black gas appeared in the sky, fangs and claws, rampage, landed on the stone slab, and changed into a human form, which was actually a handsome and dashing middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man stood up the mummy, and he sat cross-legged behind the mummy and started the Fa. He raised his hands flat and made two circles on his lower abdomen, and there was a faint layer of pale blue flame on his index finger. He pointed his index finger at the stone slab, and a cloud of black gas came up. He pointed his index finger at the mummy's Yin Tang acupoint, and the black gas burrowed into it. The man slapped the mummy hard in the back, and the mummy jumped forward and became a zombie, and it was done.
The man blows the whistle, and under different whistles, the zombies either jump forward, or turn, or retreat, or attack, or stop, all under the man's control. Although this man and the four men in black can change and fly stealthily, this zombie is a real thing, and it can only jump forward. Under the command of the man's whistle, the zombie came to the grave that the man in black had just dug and burrowed into it. Then, the people turned into a cloud of black gas and disappeared into the night sky.
It turned out that this middle-aged man was the Yin Devouring King. Who is the Eater of the Shadows? This has its own origins. As mentioned earlier, the "Eight Kings" Zhang Xianzhong's army was besieged, the food and grass were scarce, the sergeants caught a big white snake one meter long, ready to slaughter, a soldier surnamed Huang lied that a red light emitted around the snake hole, which was a good omen, indicating that Zhang Xianzhong was the true son of the dragon and would establish an immortal deed. Sure enough, Zhang Xianzhong broke through the encirclement, fought several victories, and ascended the throne in Chengdu in 1644 AD, established the Daxi regime, and the soldier's prophecy came true.
The good times did not last long, in 1646 AD, the Qing army went south, Zhang Xianzhong took the initiative to give up Chengdu, and fought a decisive battle with the Qing army in Xichong Phoenix Mountain. The Qing army attacked Li Zicheng, and Li Zicheng took the initiative to abandon Beijing; The Qing army attacked Zhang Xianzhong, and Zhang Xianzhong took the initiative to give up Chengdu and come to Phoenix Mountain, what is the reason? Can't you defend the city? The main reason may be that they do not have the support of the common people. Phoenix Mountain is more than 20 miles south of Xichong County, the mountain is high and the road is dangerous, the terrain is complex, and it is easy to hold. Due to the betrayal of the traitor, the Qing army general Hao Ge was surprised and secretly came to Zhang Xianzhong's station at the foot of Phoenix Mountain.
Zhang Xianzhong, as a generation of heroes, did not die on the frontal battlefield, but was attacked and died, very unconvinced, and the king of Hades and ghosts in the underworld had no way to take him. After all, Zhang Xianzhong has been called the emperor, theoretically speaking, it can be compared with the level of the king of Hades, he naturally will not surrender to the feet of the king of Hades, nor do he obey the judgment of the king of Hades, so he pulled up a group of people, organized an army, became a local separatist force, and continued to be the king in the fourth dimension of the underworld, known as the king of the Yin Devourer. The Yin Devourer King wants to feed an army of ghost pawns, and there is no food, but he has his own way. When he was still Zhang Xianzhong in the yang world, the grain was collected, looted and robbed from the common people. After he became the Yin Devouring King in the fourth dimension of the underworld, he still used this method to rob all kinds of sacrifices everywhere, whether it was a temple or a Taoist temple, a clan ancestral hall, or a wilderness tomb, as long as there were sacrifices, they were all within the scope of the Yin Devouring King's robbery.
In the fourth dimensional Planck's supernatural space, the two worlds of Buddhism and Taoism are not at peace. Zen Master Guangxiang of Hanguang Temple united six powerful Zen masters to create the Tiangang Beidou Array and surround Zhang Xianzhong, the king of Yin Devouring. Seven Zen masters sit cross-legged, casting spells to capture thieves, Guangxiang Zen Master is located in the Tianquan position, and the other three Zen masters are located in the Tianshu, Tianxuan, and Tianji positions, and the four of them form the Dou Kui; There are three more Zen masters in the Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Shake Light positions, and the three of them form a bucket handle. Among the seven stars of the Big Dipper, the luminosity of Tianquan is the darkest, but it is the place where the top and the handle meet, and it is the most important, and it is undertaken by the Guangxiang Zen master with the strongest mana. This Tiangang Beidou Array was originally a Taoist secret method, used by Buddhist Zen masters, integrating the essence of Buddhism and Taoism.
Zen Master Guangxiang captured the Yin Devouring Queen and burned him in the Dan furnace, and the Yin Devouring King was unscathed, so he had to put him in a secret jar and seal him. The secret jar that sealed the Yin Devouring King was passed all the way to the hands of the Zen Master Juedi. Commissioned by Professor Hu Sen, Zen Master Juedi made a spiritual rune to bind the black hole, and with the help of the secret mantra obtained by Hong Laodao from the Cangjie Patriarch, they sealed the black hole in the lower mountain col of Jinguang Valley in Banpo Village, Calamus Township, and at the same time, Zen Master Juedi sealed the secret jar containing the Yin Devouring King into it. Later, due to Lin Xueyi's mistake, the seal failed, and not only Lin Xueyi fell into the black hole, but the Yin Devouring King also escaped.
The Yin Devourer King has been imprisoned for hundreds of years, and his mana has disappeared a lot, but it is still not to be underestimated. After he escaped, he absorbed the evil spirits that Guo Xiong and Master Liu had inadvertently released in the underground secret room. These evil spirits are attached to the armor worn by Zhang Xianzhong, and now that Zhang Xianzhong's own soul has come out, it naturally has a natural affinity with the evil spirit that escaped, so the two are combined, and the energy of the Yin Devouring King has been greatly restored
The Yin Devouring King continued to recruit troops, co-opted the lonely ghosts of nearby towns, and established a mysterious organization, including the black-clothed messengers. The King of the Shadow Eater wanted to force the gods of the land everywhere to submit to him, and at his command, the black-clothed messengers acted as his minions and moved around. The black-clothed messenger captured the souls of several people who had just died, and in order to avoid the eyes of the ghosts of the fourth dimension of the underworld, the Yin Devourer King imprisoned these souls in the black hole, and found a mummy whose body was not decomposed, and on this night the soul of the newly dead was attached to the mummy, making a zombie. All this happened to be discovered by the Hongdao Master who was following the man in black.
