Tongqu County Land Temple.
It was already the middle of the night, and there was silence around the temple, only the incense candles in the main hall were shining.
In the flickering light, several clay statues on the throne exude an inexplicable smell of incense.
There is an illusory temple underneath this altar, which looks exactly the same as the land temple on the ground. I saw a middle-aged man wearing an official hat and a cunning appearance standing on a high platform, with a dark and cold aura between his eyebrows. Looking at his demeanor and clothing, you can guess that this person is the land of Tongqu County.
Under the high platform, there stood a column of Yin soldiers in armor, each of these Yin soldiers held weapons, and the yin qi was surrounded by yin qi, looking fierce and majestic.
Looking above them again, a thick yin qi rose into the sky, and there seemed to be countless ghosts screaming and shouting in them.
The land of Tongqu County looked down twice, and said loudly, "Go to the ghost prison and press that old thief of Tu Yifang for me!!"
"Yes" The four Yin soldiers under the high platform replied, strode towards the temple, and after a while, a tall ghost was pulled out.
But seeing that the red blood on the top of the other party's head was as thick as an arm, it seemed that he was also a ghost who enjoyed the power of incense.
When the ghost saw the ground on the high platform, he immediately twisted his arms and struggled wildly. The dark chains that wrapped around his body were constantly churning with talismans, and even that could not completely restrain the man. Caught off guard, he actually broke free from the suppression of the four Yin soldiers and rushed towards the high platform.
A few feet away, and in an instant it was only a few feet away from the land.
But seeing that the expression of the land in Tongqu County remained unchanged, the folding fan in his hand shook, and the dark iron chain immediately shone brightly, and contracted violently, binding him firmly, and even a section of the iron chain was still trapped in the ghost's body, making a sneering sound.
Several Yin soldiers in the audience finally reacted, and hurriedly knelt on the ground to beg for mercy: "The adults spare their lives, the adults spare their lives, the little ones don't check for a while, let this old thief break free, and almost hurt the adults by mistake......"
"Get out of here, bring him to the stage" When such a thing happened when the Yin soldiers were inspected, the land was naturally annoyed. It's just that in front of so many subordinates, it's not easy for him to punish a few people.
Waiting for the four Yin soldiers to pull the previous ghost prisoner to the stage, the land opened his mouth and asked again: "Tu Yifang, you killed two hundred and fifteen people on the battlefield during your lifetime, although it is said to be a military disaster, it can also be regarded as committing monstrous karma. After death, he would have gone to hell and suffered the punishment of reincarnation. It was only when there was a change in the underworld that you escaped this catastrophe. Escaping the catastrophe, not only did you not repent, but you also secretly occupied other ancestral halls as false gods, so as to obtain the power of incense. Now that you have been stealing incense from the world for a hundred years, you are considered a great sin, and you should have been eradicated. It's just that it's not easy for you to practice in your own land, so I sent someone to recruit you. It's a pity that you don't know the times, and you dare to kill my ghost generals, you really deserve death...... Now that you have been defeated, this land gives you a chance, but you are willing to submit to me......"
"Haha" Tu Yifang laughed out loud until the chains on his body creaked, "What are you, just a villain who stole the land priesthood, and it is pure wishful thinking for me to submit to you." If you want to kill, you have to listen to the respect, and I will never frown. ”
"Okay, good" Seeing that the other party refused to beg for mercy, the land face became even more gloomy, and he shouted a little angrily: "Come on, put this old thief on the soul killing platform for me and torture him to see if he is still tough." ”
After receiving the order, a few Yin soldiers soon brought a guillotine. The guillotine was engraved with a hundred ghost runes, and the black mist in the middle was swirling, and the screams were continuous. A few zhang away, those Yin soldiers could also feel the coercion scattered above.
This guillotine is a magic weapon equipped with the Yin Division, which is specially designed to restrain the ghosts and spirits.
After the handle of the guillotine was opened, the four ghosts carried Tu Yifang and placed it in the guillotine, and then fixed the tail to prevent the other party from breaking free and escaping.
"Tu Yifang, it's too late for you to regret it now. The land snapped.
"Come on, I've heard about the 'Ten Thousand Ghosts on the Yin Slashing Platform', I'll try it now!!" Although he felt that his soul was suppressed, Tu Yifang's face still did not change.
"Good," the land said no more, and with a wave of his big hand, the guillotine blade immediately fell.
Only a sound was heard, and the ghost body that Tu Yifang had originally condensed had been cut in half. The huge head rolled out more than two feet away and fell off the stage.
Looking at the wound again, black smoke was constantly emitting, and it was obvious that the Shinto mana contained in the guillotine was corroding the ghost body.
"Haha, it turns out that the Soul Slaying Platform is nothing more than that. There was only one head left, and Tu Yifang was still laughing wildly. It didn't seem to be affected by Shinto's mana at all.
After a few moments, the skull turned into a black mist and rejoined its body. However, there was still a buzz at the interface, and it was clear that Shinto mana was still working.
The Yin soldiers around them were stunned and trembling in fear. Ordinary ghosts, if you go down with a guillotine, you will be directly killed by the Shinto mana.
Even if he doesn't die, he will cry out for mercy in pain under the corruption of divine power.
Although this Tu Yifang was injured by the ghost, he was still alive and well.
"Come, continue to give me the guillotine" Seeing that the Soul Slaying Platform could not make him succumb, the land was very ashamed.
"Yes"
Several ghosts carried Tu Yifang into the guillotine knife again, but unfortunately the other party still did not give in and continued to scold.
In the end, the land had no tricks, so he had to order a group of Yin soldiers to put the other party in the ghost prison again. This Tu Yifang was a powerful general during his lifetime, but after his death, he somehow did not enter the underworld, but occupied an ancestral hall and became a false god. After enjoying the incense for a hundred years, I actually got a little humane luck.
Now that he has luck, even the soul slaying platform is helpless. If the land personally kills this person, it will lose a lot of its own incense and mental power. Now that he is impacting the realm of ghosts and gods, he is already lacking in incense power, so he can't make a move for a while.
Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly the land frowned, and then his face changed greatly. Looking up to check his luck, a large piece of the red on the top of his head was bitten off.
I felt a little in my heart, but more than a dozen Yin soldiers under my command were killed. Before the exploration was completed, the face of the land changed again, and he said urgently: "Captain Liu, Nanshan Weng is in danger, just now he crushed the talisman to ask for help, you take the Yin soldiers to the north of the city to check, and you must not delay......"
"Yes" A ghost general immediately walked out of the queue, shouted a few times, and quickly floated out of the ground with a group of Yin soldiers, galloping towards the north of the city.
"Sure enough, it's you" Chang Jin ran after the black mist, and saw a black shadow in front of him fleeing from a distance. Although it was dark in the alley, he had already recognized the other party as the physiognomist during the day after only two glances.
Nearly a hundred zhang away, Chang Jin's long sleeves fluttered, and when he stepped out, his feet immediately surged with aura, and a fresh breeze was automatically born, and by the wind, he swept a few zhang away. Looking at it from a distance, I only felt that the figure in front of me was flickering, and the degree was incredibly fast, just like the legendary Liezi resisting the wind, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
When he reappeared, he was already standing in front of Nanshan Weng and blocked the other party's way.
"Adults spare their lives, adults spare their lives, and the little ones don't know Mount Tai with their eyes, and they don't know that you are a cultivator. Nanshan Weng didn't have any fairy wind bones at this moment, and directly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
"Hehe, now that I know I'm afraid, who sent you?" Chang Jin's sword shook, and it was across the man's neck.
Although the tip of the sword did not emit light, the slightest chill invaded the bone marrow, making Nanshan Weng tremble: "I...... I...... It's me, no one sends ......"
"Is it, can you cultivate so many Yin soldiers?" Although Chang Jin's words were plain, they contained a trace of mana in them. If there is a great virtuous cultivator here, he can see that as the words come out of his mouth, the slightest ripple-like aura is attached to it, interfering with the luck of the other party's head, making Nanshan Weng involuntarily feel a sense of surrender.
"I said, it's the land, and those Yin soldiers were lent to me by the land lord. Sure enough, under the fright, Nanshan Weng couldn't help but tell the truth.
"Oh, the land of Tongqu County?" this was a surprise to Chang Jin. I had a guess in my heart before, but I didn't think it was true.
"It's the land lord" Seeing that the other party's words did not have the sharpness just now, Nanshan Weng only thought that he was frightened by the name he reported: "The villain is favored by the land lord, and he can be in charge of deploying twenty yin soldiers to crusade and drive away the lonely souls and wild ghosts nearby, and make a name for the land lord." ”
After listening to Nanshan Weng's explanation, Chang Jin finally understood a little. If the gods want to obtain enough incense and mental power to maintain their position, they must have continuous worship and sacrifice by the secular people.
In order to receive sacrifice, it is necessary to show one's power and convince others before the world. This kind of thing can't be done by yourself......
Nanshan Weng is the spokesperson of Tongqu County's land support in the world.
This person proclaimed the prestige of the land by subduing demons and exterminating demons, so that the people could be convinced of sacrifices in order to obtain the power of incense.
There is nothing wrong with this method in itself, after all, Chang Jin also used similar methods for Xiaoqian at the beginning. The things in front of him are obviously not so simple, he and Wang Qinian were not possessed by evil spirits, but they didn't follow his will, Nanshan Weng sent ghosts to persecute them, which was already harming people and asking for their lives, which was against the way of God.
Originally, he did things for the gods, and he was able to obtain the blessings of luck. However, looking at the blood and black karma on the other party's head, I don't know how much to do.
Putting ghosts in the left hand and catching ghosts with the right hand to show their abilities is indeed a good way to obtain the power of incense.
