Odd Containment Specialist

Xia Shou nimbly hid behind the wall next to him, peeking through the cracks in the wall to see what was going on in the street outside. At the same time, he unfolded the pieces of paper Huangfu Zuoren gave him and read them again.

"I'm not lying to you. I collected all this information with great difficulty. It took hundreds of people to die in the funeral home to decipher the inscription on the Yama Hall. Oh, to be precise, I deciphered the part that can be read." Huangfu Zuoren's voice came from the mourning stick.

"Can the funeral home decipher dead characters?" Xia Shou frowned.

Before coming in, Li Luo showed him the comparison template of Sanzhu Shiwen No. 1, which was translated into Xixia. According to Li Luo, even the Control Bureau did not dare to use superpowers to decipher the mysterious documents because of the mystery. The contents of the document could very well have driven the decipherer crazy.

And those with supernatural powers who can decipher those words are extremely rare talents.

There is no reason why the funeral home can do anything that the Bureau of Control cannot handle.

As an evil faction with no basis and extremely low organization, it is impossible for the Funeral Home to find such a large number of deciphering talents.

"It's normal that you don't know. The secret method of the funeral home has been improved a long time ago. They have a mysterious method to internalize the abnormality absorbed from the corpse and make it a part of themselves.

Although the corpse eater can still only use the corpse's superpower temporarily, the advantage is that it can consume the abnormality of its own superpower to preserve the abnormality of the corpse in itself. "Huangfu Zuoren explained.

Xia Shou frowned: "Can it be simpler?"

"To put it simply, if you eat a cake, the poop that comes out is still the same cake. It has not been digested at all, and the shape has not even changed much. It can still be eaten by the next person, and the next person eats it and poops out. This is also true, a dead person's superpower can be used many times.

They used this method to decipher the contents of the inscription by relying on hundreds of people using the same deciphering power to forcibly pile up lives. "

"What does the inscription say?"

"It's a very boring biography. It talks about how King Yama performed meritorious deeds, created eighteen levels of hell to punish the evildoers in the world, and stayed in the underworld forever. There are also things like bull heads and horse faces, black and white, and all the things that happened between the judge and King Yama. matter.

Everyone in the funeral home knows the public content. In fact, it is of little help to the current extraordinary people, but the Control Bureau should be very interested. After all, it is first-hand historical data. The secret history of the Tang Dynasty can be confirmed to be authentic, but Very rare. "

"Keep talking." Xia Shou said softly, and the footsteps outside became clearer.

"Using the original text to describe Shen Shen Nao Nao, but applying modern theory, it is probably that Yama ascended a long time ago and had some named people under his command. These named people had a dispute and several died.

When the time of their death is converted to the first branch, it is now recognized by scholars that the historical branch of our world is the Tang Dynasty.

Wei Zheng, Zhong Kui, and several others were successfully promoted to be named, but the process was not as ordinary as recorded in real history.

Have you heard of the legend of Zhong Kui?

According to mortal articles, Zhong Kui was very talented when he was young. He went to Beijing to take the exam, but failed because of his ugly appearance. He was so angry that he ran into the palace and died. When the emperor heard about it, he was given a red official robe for burial.

During the Tianbao period, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty occasionally suffered from spleen disease in Lishan, Lintong, which could not be cured for a long time. One night, he dreamed of a strange-looking man who caught a little ghost, gouged out his eyes, and ate him. The big man claimed that he was "Zhong Kui, who failed to pass the imperial examination." The emperor woke up from his dream and recovered immediately.

Therefore, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty ordered Wu Daozi to make a painting of Zhong Kui's ghost-catching scene in his dream and hang it in the palace to ward off evil spirits and suppress demons.

However, the content recorded on the inscription in the Hall of Yama is not like this. The appearance of Zhong Kui described above combines many strange features. The description in the inscription is a compliment, but in human terms, it is actually a deformity among deformities. The long Not like a person at all.

If we look at that biography from an objective standpoint, it seems that Zhong Kui used some strange ability to pull Tang Xuanzong's consciousness into the extremely terrifying sea of ​​origin in his dream, and threatened the mortal ruler in the sea of ​​origin. Arrange a promotion ceremony for yourself.

Afterwards, any titles, titles, and other matters were required by the ceremony. Zhong Kui showed his ability to Yama and was named the judge of the Department of Punishing Evil.

Except for Zhong Kui, the other judges and Black and White Wuchang were all signatories, but strangely, the number of signatures was a bit too much.

This is indeed strange, but the people at the funeral home have no time to think about these details.

The most precious information they obtained from that inscription was that they could complete a certain ritual through this endless hell that had lost its owner.

Yama relied on the Infinite Hell to promote himself, and the director of the funeral home should have the same plan now.

I don’t know what he thinks, but he probably thinks that being an agent can be successful, and being a signer should be simple. "Huangfu Zuoren told everything he knew in great detail.

After listening to this long list, Xia Shou felt that Huangfu Zuoren was a bit unnaturally frank.

It was obvious that he had sealed the other party with Soul Binding, but Huangfu Zuoren, apart from being very annoyed at first, became very submissive and even in a calm mood afterwards.

Xia Shou combed through the information Huangfu Zuoren just told in his mind.

He guessed that the secrets obtained by the funeral home from that stone tablet were actually much more, and they were only disclosed to lower-level members. These were the only ones, and even what Huangfu Zuoren knew might not be true.

The only thing that can be confirmed is that there is indeed a stone tablet with ancient secret texts in the Yama Palace.

Xia Shou took a deep breath to relieve his inner tension.

[Self-Destruction] will take a long time to cool down, but this damn place is full of dangers. Whether to start a war is not his choice at all. This is very different from the previous missions.

In addition, [Best Replica] and [Body Transformed into Bone Forest] are only borrowed for 24 hours, which means that after the next self-destruction cools down, these two abilities will have expired.

These two borrowed abilities are the most cost-effective means of saving lives during the cooling period.

As for the body transforming into bone forest... it is completely rubbish when used alone, and it must be used in a place without people to reach the pinnacle.

But the risk of spreading leaks has to be considered.

"Pah pah pah!"

While Xia Shou was still thinking about the cooling period tactics, the footsteps outside were already very clear. Xia Shou pressed his face against the cold wall, and through the gap, he saw a long strip of something coming quickly from the dark blue fog at the end of the street.

The ghost car mentioned by Huangfu Zuoren approached with the posture of thousands of troops, and the front of the car was a person.

This person was like the centaur in the legend, but from the waist down, it was not legs, but a flat torso.

Countless human torsos, connected one by one, on both sides of the torso were not arms, but rows of thighs, one on each side of each torso.

Xia Shou watched the rows of thighs running past him like a centipede. He also saw that on the back of this ghost car, there was a long wooden box, which seemed to contain something.

"Alice, get the vision of that person." Xia Shou saw that there was a timekeeper hiding in the ruins across the street, and he could see the things in the long box perfectly.
