"… "
Do you really think she didn't hear the series of complaints before
Jianchou had just arrived at the Eighteen Levels of Hell when he saw the big-headed ghost and the small-headed ghost. He felt it was strange and a coincidence, so he came to take a look. How could he have expected such a funny scene
She looked at the kneeling little ghost with a strange look in her eyes: "Get up first."
She doesn't like kneeling down all the time.
But unexpectedly, a look of embarrassment appeared on the little ghost's face. He responded with "yes, yes, yes" but his body was still kneeling there without moving.
Jianchou frowned immediately: "Why don't you get up yet?"
When the little ghost saw her frowning, he was immediately frightened out of his wits and cried, "My little one, my little one just broke his knee and can't get up."
"… "
Jianchou was speechless again and sighed in his heart, thinking that eighty years had passed and they were still two stupid guys, without any improvement.
She raised her hand and a stream of earth energy was injected into the little-headed ghost's body.
His body suddenly felt lighter, and his knee, which had been broken from kneeling too hard, healed. He stood up smoothly and hurriedly thanked Jianchou, saying "Thank you, my great master" all the time.
As soon as I stood up and looked up, I was so scared that I almost fell to my knees!
It turns out that Jianchou is not the only one standing in this ruin!
It was because he heard Jianchou's voice just now and turned around suddenly, he was so scared that he had no time to pay attention to her side.
Now they saw that there was a man in a black robe standing a little further back. He was very handsome and his aura was terrifying. At this moment, he was frowning and looking at them with a frightening look, his eyes moving back and forth between himself and the big-headed ghost still stuck in the gap.
"See, see, see, see, Great Master Chou, this, this, this..."
The little-headed ghost stuttered with fear.
Jianchou glanced at Qu Zhengfeng, then explained to the little-headed ghost: "Don't panic, my friend."
Don’t panic…
Bullshit!
It would have been better if the little-headed ghost didn't listen. As soon as he heard the word "friend", he automatically lumped this person into the same category as Jianchou. He wanted to cry in his heart, but he had to put on a very forced friendly smile towards this "friend" Jianchou on his face.
He really didn't expect that he would be so unlucky. In this moment of silence, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, such as: Why did this devil appear here? Has the Nineteen Continents been beaten to the Eighteenth Level of Hell? Or does she really have a special way to enter and exit the Extreme Realm as others say? How much of his chattering did she hear? Who is this person next to her and what is he doing here
But no one dared to ask.
The little-headed ghost just kept a stiff smile on his face, trying to confuse Jianchou with his flattery.
Jianchou had just heard as much as she had heard, so how could she not know the little ghost's true thoughts? But she had mistakenly entered the Extreme Region because of a human platform, and these two little ghosts wanted to cook her and eat her, but they couldn't do anything to her. Now that she has become a great Return to the Void, and has even cultivated the Eight Divisions of Heavenly Dragon Dharmakaya, she doesn't need to be afraid of this matter at the moment.
She had already looked around when she came here and found it quite strange.
But she didn't say anything at the moment. She just walked over and pulled the big-headed ghost stuck in the gap out, and then asked: "Why are you here?"
Shouldn't we be asking you this
The little-headed ghost complained in his heart, but that was all he could do.
When Jianchou asked, he immediately told them all the tragic things that happened between the two ghost brothers after she left Jiyu. Naturally, he exaggerated the content, hoping that this devil who dared to fight with Grandpa Qin Guangwang would let them go because they were not living a good life.
But the basic facts are still roughly correct.
Of course Jianchou could tell which parts were real and which parts were just nonsense, so he didn't mind. After listening, he summarized the information he needed.
First, Zhang Tang had been promoted to the position of Grand Judge of the Palace of King Guang of Qin;
Second, the Jiyu is recruiting ghost soldiers on a large scale to join the war;
Third, this ruin...
Her eyes flickered, and she looked around again, then asked the little ghost, "You just said that you have been hiding here for the past eighty years, and Zhang Tang didn't come to kill you to silence you?"
"That's right, but I don't know if it's a coincidence." The little ghost answered every question and tried to behave better in front of Jianchou. He saw that Jianchou was interested in this ruin. Although his heart was bleeding, he quickly asked her to come with him. "Big Head and I have low cultivation levels and can't see anything strange here. How about you come and see for yourself?"
Jianchou didn't hold back at all and said, "That's perfect."
After he finished speaking, he remembered that he was not alone anymore, so he turned to look at Qu Zhengfeng beside him and asked politely, "Your Majesty the Sword Emperor, is everything ok?"
Sword, His Majesty the Sword Emperor...
The little-headed ghost had previously guessed that the man in black robe had an extraordinary origin, but when he heard that the Great Lord Jianchou, who he called "devil" and enjoyed the title of "Ghost-Fearing" in the entire Polar Region, actually called him "His Majesty the Sword Emperor", he felt a darkness before his eyes.
It's over. Once you're on this pirate ship, you can't get off.
Qu Zhengfeng frowned.
It is true that there were some rumors in the Nineteen Continents about Jianchou's trip to the Extreme Region, but few people knew what happened specifically, except for a few people in Yashan Gate. He had already rebelled against Yashan, and had to avoid suspicion to some extent, so he didn't know much.
Now it seems that this matter is still somewhat horrifying.
He originally thought that this time when he entered the extreme realm, he would have nothing and no one to rely on. However, as soon as he saw the Eighteen Levels of Hell, Jianchou found an "acquaintance" here.
Although these two little ghosts are not very likable, they give a lot of information.
Including calling Jianchou "devil" before he noticed their arrival, but as soon as she appeared, he immediately gave in and called her "Great Honored".
Whether it is the "devil" or the "great master", it is not easy to understand in the environment of the extreme domain.
"Demon" is not a good title, especially in a place like the Polar Region;
The arrival of "Great Honored One" is even more surprising. From ancient times to the present, the only person who can be called "Great Honored One" among the human race is Pangu, the Great Honored One who created the world and gave birth to the human race. These two little ghosts, especially the little-headed ghost, are smooth-talking and probably call him that out of compliment.
only…
Since he can be complimented as a "great master", it seems unlikely that he has no strength and has not done anything.
This place is the eighteenth level of hell. A great formation of Buddha's creation is located here. Qu Zhengfeng had been here in the past, but eleven decades have passed and it has completely changed beyond recognition.
When Jianchou asked him, he just glanced at Jianchou.
"No objection."
Jianchou obviously realized that he must have some doubts in his heart, but now was not the time to talk, so he didn't ask and just let the big-headed ghost and the small-headed ghost lead the way.
The two men and two ghosts walked around the pile of ruins in front of them and saw a large pit behind them. The entrance of the pit was covered with clumps of Tianshi grass to hide it.
The little ghost went up diligently and pushed the grass away, revealing the entrance to the cave.
Jianchou and Qu Zhengfeng walked in with their heads bent.
The space inside the cave is not very big, a bit narrow, not damp, but very dark, and looks like an underground stone chamber.
This ruin in the Eighteen Levels of Hell remains a mystery.
The stone chamber in front of me should be part of the ruins. It looks very old and dilapidated. The four walls are made of gray-white boulders, but the top is pure white and the ground is pure black. It has probably gone through a long period of time, so there are cracks of various sizes everywhere, but the lines carved on the stone surface are still clearly visible.
Jianchou and Qu Zhengfeng are no longer ordinary people. Each one is more knowledgeable than the other. They noticed these lines the moment they came in.
It is obvious that it was not carved with a sharp tool.
The edges of these lines are uneven and extremely rough, and the overall shape is not smooth, as if a piece of stone was broken and then carved on it with the tip of the stone.
It's not a formation, but a mural.
The mural is extremely crude and can only express the meaning.
Looking at the pictures one by one -
First there was a huge circle;
The second one is a giant with his head in the sky and his feet on the ground, holding a huge axe;
Then a passage appeared behind the giant, and on the passage there were many small people of normal size;
Then there is a picture divided into two halves by the mural. On the left side is a bunch of chaotic lines and strange patterns, like a dark cloud, while on the right side is a giant and many other small people standing to the left, holding up a giant axe in both hands, as if offering a gift;
The fifth picture is carved on a pure black ground, as if the long night has come, and the giants and the little people are fighting with the strange lines and patterns in the darkness;
The last picture was above the head, pure white stone. It was daybreak, the giant disappeared, the pattern with messy lines also disappeared, and only the little people were left in the picture, looking up but not knowing where to look.
Qu Zhengfeng frowned deeply as he watched.
After reading it, Jianchou felt as if someone had hit him hard on the heart with a sledgehammer, and a sudden horrible shock ran down his spine!
This mural shows a giant with crude lines...
"It is the map of the creation of the universe by Pangu the Great."
Although Qu Zhengfeng frowned, he did not show much surprise on his face. Even the patterns with messy lines and strange shapes that Jianchou was staring at, he just glanced at them and passed by.
"This place should be the residence of ancient ancestors."
"Ancient people?"
Jianchou forced himself to suppress the shock in his heart and forced himself not to think about the illusion he saw in the ancient formation of gods in the deep pit of the snowy area that day. He shifted his gaze from the mural to Qu Zhengfeng.
Qu Zhengfeng briefly explained, "We are now in the fourth era, the present and the past. This place should be the remains of the second era. At that time, the cycle of reincarnation should have just begun between heaven and earth, and the yin and yang worlds were not yet clearly distinguished. The two stones above your head and under your feet are the stones of the two poles. When used together, they have the miraculous effect of obscuring the universe and making it impossible for anyone to detect them. They should have been built by our ancestors in ancient times to avoid disasters. Unexpectedly, the times changed and the ancestors disappeared. They have survived until now, but were discovered by these two little ghosts. They are lucky to have been hiding here for decades without being discovered."
As for going out occasionally three or five times, it is normal not to be discovered.
After all, no matter how murderous Zhang Tang is, it is impossible for him to pay attention to the entire Jiyu all the time. Firstly, it requires extremely high cultivation, and secondly, he works under King Qin Guang, so he has to be more restrained. If he goes too far, it will arouse suspicion.
So all in all, they are really lucky.
After hearing Qu Zhengfeng's words, Jianchou's eyes became more suspicious, and he asked subconsciously, "How can you be so sure?"
But just as he finished speaking, he remembered something and realized that he was confused.
Sure enough, Qu Zhengfeng replied calmly, "Nine-bend River Map."
The "Nine-bend River Map" is the most mysterious object in the Nineteen Continents. It has been passed down through the hands of three great men at the turn of the ancient and modern times, and finally fell into the hands of Qu Zhengfeng. It is said that it not only records a variety of incredible ancient magic methods, but also involves the original secret of the birth of the universe.
But this has always been a groundless rumor and is not credible.
It was not until this moment that Qu Zhengfeng gave such a definite and affirmative answer that Jianchou realized that there is no smoke without fire!
No wonder Fu Chaosheng wanted to borrow the River Map...
She suddenly felt extremely curious and wanted to borrow the "River Map" from Qu Zhengfeng. However, when she thought about her awkward relationship with this person and the current awkward situation, she suppressed her curiosity.
With a great war imminent, it is better to calm down and think about what to do next.
Since the little-headed ghost and the big-headed ghost came in, they both widened their eyes and looked at the two of them cautiously. They obviously couldn't understand what the two of them were communicating, but for their own safety considerations, they didn't dare to interrupt.
It was not until this time that Jianchou remembered them again.
He asked, "Now that the Nineteen Continents and the Extreme Territory have gone to war, do you know anything else related to this besides recruiting ghost soldiers?"
"To reply to Great Master Jianchou, other than this, I only know that we have reached the gates of hell. When I went out to gather information that day, I happened to hear that Bafang City was mobilizing troops. It was the one with the surname Zhang, no, no, no, Judge Zhang, Lord Judge Zhang..."
As soon as the three words "Zhang" came out of his mouth, the little ghost felt something was wrong.
He dares to say it in private, but becomes timid in front of others.
Jianchou asked, "How is Zhang Tang?"
The little ghost regarded the two men in front of him as evil spirits, and wished to get rid of them as soon as possible. His red eyes rolled around, and a plan came to his mind, so he said earnestly: "You don't know, Lord Zhang is now a big shot under Grandpa Qin Guangwang! All the important matters have been given to him in recent years, and the original Judge Cui has been surpassed. I heard from someone a while ago that Lord Zhang is now responsible for the dispatch of some ghost soldiers in Ghost Gate, and they should be near the Wrongful Death City. You know Lord Zhang, he is a big shot, and he must know more than us!"
The implication is one -
We don’t know, but Zhang Tang knows, so go and ask him!
How could Jianchou not even hear this trick
But when she looked at the little-headed ghost with his eyes rolling around, and thought about the "mirror" in the City of the Dead that no living person could enter, she realized that she didn't have the mysterious fairy in the mist in the city to help her separate her body and soul, and it was an extraordinary period, so how could she dare to take any risk
So she stared at the little ghost for a long time, pondered in her heart for a long time, and finally laughed: "I can't enter the City of the Dead. I know Zhang Tang, you also know Zhang Tang, and you also know me, so why don't I ask you to tell me to help me 'invite' Lord Zhang?"
"What?!"
The big-headed ghost didn't react at all, but the small-headed ghost suddenly jumped three feet high, his face turned pale with fear, and he shook his head like a rattle and screamed!
"No, we won't go! Even if we die, we won't go!"
"Oh." Jianchou glanced at them indifferently and uttered a syllable without any emotion. The next moment, he pressed the sword at his waist and said expressionlessly, "Since you are not going anyway, I will kill you now."
Big-headed ghost, small-headed ghost: ? ?
Why does this development seem different from what I imagined? !
