When Chen Jiu heard this, he was stunned for a moment and said with a little amusement: "Could it be that if you think that someone who is not a city god, you must listen to you?" Where did such a domineering request come from? ”

The old man nodded as a matter of course, "Naturally, except for the Son of Heaven, the world will be under the management of my City God, and it is already a big crime for you to see the City God and not kneel." ”

Hearing this, Chen Jiu smiled dumbly, it seems that the other party's is indeed as he guessed, he has been here for hundreds of years, and he no longer knows the changes outside, "You are indeed the ancestor of the city god." ”

"Could it be that you are the ancestor of the city god who established Haicheng in the legend, and then established the Demon Sealing Mound?"

The old man nodded silently, confirming Chen Jiu's guess.

Chen Jiu glanced at the ancestor Chenghuang in front of him with some curiosity, from the current situation, the other party's current state is indeed very bad, the whole body is withered, the blood and qi are dry, and he looks like he can't live long.

But the other party's spirit is very full.

He didn't even doubt at all that this old man still had the ability to fight with him, but what made Chen Jiu curious was what purpose the other party had stayed in this demon tomb for hundreds of years, and what kind of method had been used to stay in such a dark environment for hundreds of years, without eating or drinking.

"Since you are the ancestor of the city god, it is very interesting, the outside world is rumored that you established the Sealed Demon Tomb, but judging from the current situation, you may be very strong, but presumably there should be a lot of difference from the level of building the Sealed Demon Tomb, right?" Chen Jiu asked curiously.

It's not so much that it was built by men, but that it's a power that belongs to the gods.

It is impossible to build a place as magnificent as a miracle with just manpower, especially in a feudal society with extremely low industrial capacity, so everything in the sealed mounds may hide a huge secret in it.

The ancestor Chenghuang glanced at Chen Jiu, "You want to know this?" Actually, it doesn't hurt to tell you, the Sealed Demon Tomb was indeed not built by me, and it already existed before the old decay discovered this place. ”

"This is built by the Netherworld, one of the nine shades."

Chen Jiu's heart suddenly shook.

Nine Shades!

In myths and legends, there are nine heavens, and the corresponding one is the ninefold earth, and the nine layers are the nine heavy nine, so he has another meaning, which is the eighteen-fold hell.

Legend has it that all the ghosts in the world have to go through the judgment of the eighteen hells before they can re-enter reincarnation, and those who are guilty of the ghosts will be imprisoned in the eighteen hells and punished until they are cleansed of their sins and reincarnated.

And the old man in front of him actually told him that this is one of the eighteen hells in myths and legends?

Are you really in a place where myths and legends are possible?

Thinking of this, Chen Jiu couldn't help but take a deep breath, no matter whether what the other party said was true or not, there would be nothing wrong with the fact that countless ghosts were indeed imprisoned here, so from another point of view, there was nothing wrong with calling this place the eighteen hells.

"Why are you willing to tell me this?" Chen Jiu said curiously.

If this is really one of the eighteen hells, then the importance is almost self-evident, and the other party is telling this information to himself, obviously for some purpose.

"Because, I'm dying, and there is no way to continue to maintain this great array by relying on me alone." The first seat of the city god said lightly.

It seems that life and death are an extremely ordinary thing in his eyes.

"Maintain the operation of the Great Array?" Chen Jiu frowned, "Do you mean these ghosts?" When I entered here, I noticed that they seemed to be standing in a certain way, could this be the purpose of the Great Array? ”

"Not bad." The head of the city god nodded. "Everything here is prepared for the Lord behind the portal, and only by relying on the power of that Lord can this One of the Nine Shadows continue to be maintained."

Chen Jiu was secretly frightened when he heard it.

Millions of ghosts are only prepared for one "adult", what kind of existence does it need millions of ghosts to feed together?

This is far beyond Chen Jiu's imagination.

Perhaps only a true god could have reached such a level.

"Who is that adult, have you seen it?" Chen Jiu continued to ask.

The first seat of the City God was silent for a while, and then slowly spoke, "No, even if I have been here for hundreds of years, I have never seen the Lord behind the portal. ”

"So you've been here for all these years, relying on yourself to keep it running?" Chen Jiu raised his eyebrows and said.

If this is the case, this old man's behavior can be called great, in such a dark place, in order to maintain the stability of the Sealed Demon Tomb, he can actually support it alone for hundreds of years.

But people are human beings after all, and no matter what kind of people they are, they are still powerful after all.

However, it was hard for Chen Jiu to believe that the old man had really stayed here for so many years for such a purpose, after all, judging from the old man's attitude, he was not a person like this who was willing to dedicate himself to ordinary people.

And judging by what he knew.

In the eyes of these city gods, most of the people are like grass mustard, only when the demons are slaughtered, they will show up to solve it, instead of really caring about the life and death of the people, in the end, these city gods are like warriors wearing long robes, and it is impossible to really put themselves in the shoes of ordinary people to think.

And at this moment, Ye Qingxuan and the others also reached here.

As soon as they saw the old man, the eight people immediately became vigilant, and in such an environment, the appearance of a person for no reason had to make people wonder if they were hostile to themselves.

Seeing this scene, Chen Jiu waved his hand, "This is the Chenghuang of the previous generation, you don't have to be nervous." ”

"Ancestor Chenghuang?" After hearing Chen Jiu's words, Ye Qingxuan was taken aback, "Wasn't the ancestor Chenghuang a person hundreds of years ago?" How is it possible to be alive now. ”

Chen Jiu shook his head, "I don't know the specific situation, but the person is alive here, you can ask him about the specific situation, as for whether he will answer, then I don't know." ”

The ancestor Chenghuang is still alive.

And appeared in the sealed mound, no matter who was present, it may not be good news, after all, no one knows whether this is the final boss of the dungeon, or what it is, an obstacle, but the good news is that from Chen Jiu's meaning, the other party is not unable to communicate.
