Chapter 1 The Lamp Has No Flame
The moon is dark and the wind is high.
There is no flame in the residual lamp.
In the dim and invisible-looking house, Fang Yunchen, whose face was pale, suddenly sat up in shock.
At this time, he was like a person who had just drowned and grabbed a life-saving straw, sweating profusely.
With Fang Yunchen's heavy gasping sound, the flame candle that was about to be extinguished jumped strangely, making a crackling echo.
In the gloomy hall, there was suddenly a faint light.
"What is this place?"
Fang Yunchen, who was in shock, calmed down for a long time, and his thoughts slowly converged.
In my memory, I was obviously swept into endless darkness by the waves because of saving people, but I didn't expect to sit on a wooden chair intact at this moment.
If you follow common sense, it really doesn't make sense.
I didn't meet the legendary black and white impermanence with a fierce face and a long tongue, nor did I see the treacherous and treacherous Yama Hall.
In front of Fang Yunchen, there was only a mahogany table that had slightly lost its paint, on which was a yellowish jade buckle bamboo paper, and in the center of the paper seemed to be a portrait.
However, it seems that it is not yet done.
From a distance, Wei Zheng stood like a mythical angry King Kong, but Fang Yunchen subconsciously lowered his head and took a closer look, only to find that the portrait of a blue-faced fang, was even more creepy than the demons and monsters he imagined.
Next to the bamboo paper, a wolf fell on the table, and the dripping ink formed a smudge on the edge of the paper, like a black blood stain that had dried up for a long time.
Shocking.
"I'm ...... Crossed? ”
Just as Fang Yunchen looked around, trying to figure out the situation at this time, a strange memory suddenly appeared in the depths of his mind.
Coincidentally, the original owner of this body has the same name and surname as him, also called Fang Yunchen.
It's just that the world he is in is no longer the familiar Blue Star, but a mysterious place called the Tianyan Continent, which is vast and boundless, much more vast than the Pangea Continent that has appeared in the history of Blue Star evolution.
Even the historical books are vague about how big the Tianyan Continent is.
Similar to Lanxing, this world has a very similar civilization development line, and the change of dynasties in the long history is like a flower blooming and falling, which makes many literati and sigh in later generations.
After thousands of years of ebb and flow, the vast empire with the most extensive territory of the Yan Continent today is the Great Zhou Dynasty, which was founded more than 80 years ago, and occupies almost one-third of the known territory of the entire continent.
It can be regarded as the most extensive imperial dynasty in history.
At this time, it was the fourth year of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Although it has only experienced four generations of emperors, the Great Zhou Dynasty, which has not yet been around for less than a hundred years, has already shown its decline.
Sitting on the throne of the carved dragon, the Ninety-Five Emperor was just a child who had just turned ten, and his power was down, and the emperor's will could not even be transmitted to the Zijin Deep Palace.
In order to compete for the actual control of the dynasty, the gate lords and magnates fought each other, and disputes continued.
The fire at the city gate affected the fish in the pond, and in this chaotic world, no one can be immune.
Fang Yunchen's predecessor was only a bitter scholar in Hechang County, Xiling Prefecture, who had been studying hard for more than ten years.
Along the way, he went through the township examination, the general examination and the palace examination, and finally obtained the fame of Jinshi, and was able to stay in Beijing and wait for the appointment of the imperial court.
It's just that just a few days after Fang Yunchen entered the Hanlin Academy, he was unexpectedly implicated in the party dispute, and he was sent to the bitter cold land in the southwest border after changing hands.
There was chaos in the capital, and outside the capital was also divided by the vassal kings, and bandits could be seen everywhere.
Fang Yunchen went through many hardships along the way, and finally came to Ancheng County alive, where birds don't, and became a little-known seven-grade county magistrate.
The Great Zhou Dynasty set up more than 180 provincial capitals, and Chengping Mansion, to which Ancheng County was subordinate, was one of them.
Although the name sounds good, eighty percent of the territory of Cheng Binh Province is high and steep, and the terrain is undulating.
And Anseong County is located in the southernmost part of Chengping Province, except for the north, the other three directions are facing Jedi danger, which is really not peaceful at all.
Fortunately, Fang Yunchen's predecessor was quite resilient, and after another twist and turn, he finally gained a firm foothold in Ancheng.
Pinch your fingers, but it's just over three months.
The memory of the predecessor has ended here, and it is quite normal.
But tonight, when the melancholy Fang Yunchen was sitting in the study, about to splash ink on the drawing paper to express the depression in his heart, he only heard a sudden gust of wind outside the house, and the atmosphere in the house changed greatly.
Immediately after a burst of ghost and god cries, the originally closed doors and windows suddenly opened, and the biting yin wind surged in, and the candle flame beside him turned blood-red in an instant, dyeing the entire study like Shura hell.
Fang Yunchen's face turned pale with fright, but before he could react, the surrounding scene suddenly became even more terrifying.
Countless broken corpses crawled from all directions, trying to gnaw at the flesh of the living.
At this moment, countless yin qi gathered into a group, turning into a ghost shadow with a blurred and transparent body, and swooped towards Fang Yunchen with teeth and claws.
This is the end of the memory of the predecessor.
"What the hell is that!"
The chill before death made Fang Yunchen creepy, and there seemed to be the sound of ghosts crying wolves in his ears, which was eight points similar to the scene in the ghost movie.
Continuing to fuse the memories of his predecessor, Fang Yunchen knew that the ghost shadow formed by the convergence of the yin qi just now was very likely to be the so-called evil spirit!
Although the Great Zhou Dynasty was very similar to the feudal dynasty in Fang Yunchen's memory, it had the existence of cultivators.
More than 100 years ago, the entire Tianyan Continent was full of spiritual energy, there were many monks like leeks, and the gods were full of power.
There are many sects, and the rulers of the dynasties are all powerful cultivators.
Until the Emperor Chongwu of the previous dynasty forcibly shattered the void, he didn't know where to open a doorway.
Since then, the aura on the continent has passed strangely, and in less than a hundred years, it has been close to exhaustion.
Except for a very small number of Cave Heaven Blessed Lands, there were fewer and fewer places suitable for cultivation in the entire continent.
In the past three or four years, this situation has become even more and more obvious, and many people even think that those cultivators who were once able to fly to the heavens and the earth are just characters fabricated out of thin air in myths and legends.
On the contrary, evil forces such as yin, resentment, and death are easy to gather and breed terrifying beings such as evil spirits.
Like the evil spirits in horror movies, it can easily suck the flesh of the living.
And among the many evil demon outer paths, evil spirits are only the lowest level of existence.
There are many more demons that are more powerful than evil spirits.
However, although evil things are rampant in today's world, Fang Yunchen was canonized by the imperial court after all, and the dignified county government was even more protected by the power of imperial power.
The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and although the imperial power of the Great Zhou Dynasty is somewhat declining, if the ordinary evil spirits are not driven, they will never dare to easily step into the majestic place of the county government.
Therefore, last night's incident was not a natural disaster but a man-made disaster, and eighty percent of them were someone who wanted to put Fang Yunchen to death.
