The God and Buddha are actually me
Chapter 88 Zhuge's death, the Yin army passing through
"So, you not only met Tianzun, but also went to Huangquan and met other Tianqian?"
Zhang Jiuyang nodded.
"And you have successfully obtained the recognition of most of the Heavenly Stems. As long as you pass the 'Xin' assessment of the Eighth Heavenly Stem, you can succeed Blind Lin as the Ninth Heavenly Stem?"
Zhang Jiuyang nodded again.
Yue Ling was silent.
She didn't expect that Zhang Jiuyang would do such a big thing after not seeing him for a month.
Although it was only his first time in Huangquan, he had already brought out a lot of useful information.
For example, Huangquan is in the underworld, and Shi Tiangan refers to the members of Huangquan. Each of them is a terrifying and strange evil spirit, or perhaps a terrifying legend that circulates throughout Kyushu.
What surprised her even more was that Zhang Jiuyang also noticed some very key details.
For example, B among the Ten Heavenly Stems once recited a Buddha's name in a low voice when speaking.
This reminded her of a file she had read not long ago.
The case of the conjoined demons and Buddhas!
There is also Ding. He seems to like eating hearts in his speech. So let’s make a bold assumption that the case of evil spirits dissecting the heart that happened in the Salesian Bureau that year has something to do with him?
Suddenly, many unsolved cases seemed to have a direction.
And the grumpy Geng actually expressed his appreciation for Zhang Jiuyang in private.
Yue Ling looked at the young man in white clothes with loose hair in front of him with complicated eyes.
He said he wanted to help him, but he didn't expect that in just one month, he would go deep into the tiger's den and get so much precious information.
"Haha, it's actually nothing. I was so powerful at the time. When the sky fire opened, I suppressed them all!"
Zhang Jiuyang scratched his head and smiled pretending to be relaxed, trying to ease the heavy atmosphere.
But Yue Ling couldn't laugh. She knew how dangerous this was. Zhang Jiuyang was walking on the tip of a knife, and he was risking his life.
"Take off your clothes."
She suddenly said coldly.
Zhang Jiuyang was startled, what kind of operation is this?
"Take off your shirt, hurry up!"
Zhang Jiuyang smiled bitterly and said: "General Yue, no, Marquis Minglie, in fact, I did not send that meat futon to you on purpose, but Ah Li made a mistake for me, so that I would not have to bear the burden of apologetics——"
There was a clang of a knife.
The dragon bird sword flashed past.
Zhang Jiuyang's shirt fell down, and his abdominal muscles were clearly defined, smooth but not bloated, and full of masculinity.
However, the skin was covered with burns, which was shocking.
"It just looks serious. From night to now, it has gotten better..."
Zhang Jiuyang coughed and grabbed his waistband tightly, fearing that if Yue Ling drew his sword, he would run naked again.
Yue Ling looked at the burns with waves in her eyes. She was silent for a long time. She didn't say anything. She just took out the ointment from her arms and gently applied it on Zhang Jiuyang.
The fingers were cold and the ointment was also very refreshing, which seemed to relieve the tingling sensation on the skin a lot.
Neither of them spoke, but the murderous atmosphere quietly dissipated.
From the study window, a pair of big black and smart eyes quietly watched this harmonious scene, showing a happy smile.
Ah Li is about to have a complete family~
…
"Ten days later, go to the Xishi Kou execution site in Luotian County, Qingzhou, watch an execution, and then grab the head of the second beheaded person..."
Yue Ling thought about this so-called assessment task with a very solemn expression.
Zhang Jiuyang had already put on his coat and said after hearing this: "Actually, even if you don't come today, I will send Qingji to deliver a message to you."
"The seventh Tian Gan Geng secretly reminded me that the old eunuch is the most vindictive and will retaliate. This mission must be very dangerous. He wants me to die in it."
Zhang Jiuyang gave Xin, who had a hoarse and sharp voice, the nickname "Old Eunuch" to make communication and memory easier.
"I'm bluffing in Huangquan. This mission must be done with real swords and guns. If I don't find help, I, this paper tiger, will definitely break with one poke."
In the current crisis, not only was he not panicked, but he was still in the mood to laugh at himself and seemed very relaxed.
Compared with how frightened she was when she faced Yun Niang, she is almost a completely different person.
Yue Ling seemed more nervous than him. She was silent for a long time and said, "Zhang Jiuyang, have you really thought about it?"
Before Zhang Jiuyang could speak, she continued: "There are two places where this mission is the most dangerous. The first is Luotian County."
"You may not know that a tragedy occurred in Luotian County more than 20 years ago. Nearly one-third of the county's population of more than 1,400 people died."
"Did Huang Quan do it?"
Zhang Jiuyang asked with a flash of his eyes.
Yue Ling shook his head and said coldly: "It's Yin soldiers crossing the border."
Yin soldiers passing through...
"According to the records, there was a sudden noise of carriages and horses in Luotian County that night. Many people woke up from their dreams and saw the sight of Yin soldiers crossing the border."
"Some brave people tried to set off firecrackers to drive them away. As a result, those who saw the Yin soldiers crossing the border that night hardly survived, and most of them died tragically at home."
Zhang Jiuyang felt a chill in his heart.
He remembered that Lao Gao also told about a similar case, but it was more serious than Luotian County and happened in a city in Yongzhou.
At that time, the people in that city were beating gongs and drums to scare away the evil spirits. As a result, the whole city was massacred the next day, and no one survived.
It can be seen that these Yin soldiers are no less ferocious than those evil spirits.
What Zhang Jiuyang is most puzzled about is that these Yin soldiers are not bound by their souls, and they always show up with great fanfare. What are they for?
"A single underworld is already a serious concern for us. As for these underworld soldiers who have existed for who knows how many years, our Qintian Prison is indeed unable to deal with them."
There was a hint of unwillingness in Yue Ling's voice.
With her temperament, she would retaliate tooth for tooth and eye for eye, but when it came to these underworld soldiers, she could only pretend she didn't see them.
How frustrating!
"Have you, Qin Tian Jian, never fought against the Yin soldiers?"
Zhang Jiuyang always felt that even though Qin Tian Jian was founded six hundred years ago, he would not know so much about the Yin soldiers?
Sure enough, Yue Ling hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "In the 21st year of Qianyuan, the whole city of Yongzhou was massacred by Yin soldiers. At that time, Zhuge Imperial Master was furious and took the Jiuzhou Cauldron to fight into the netherworld. He returned on the 49th day. , Black hair turns into white hair.”
"Since then, Yin soldiers crossing the border to kill people have never happened. It was not until the past hundred years that they slowly appeared."
Zhang Jiuyang was shocked. Imperial Master Zhuge actually committed suicide and entered the Netherworld himself?
Although there were no specific details about the battle, he still felt frightened.
Zhuge Qixing was the first eunuch of Daqian and the strongest eunuch of Qintian Prison in the past six hundred years. His amazing talent and beauty can be glimpsed from Lin Xiazi.
Six hundred years later, Blind Lin still has a changed expression and regards a dead man as his lifelong enemy.
The netherworld of the underworld is even more mysterious. There are definitely not only Yin soldiers in it, but also many terrifying and strange existences. Those Yin soldiers are just their pawns.
Although Zhang Jiuyang had been to the Underworld once, he had not seen any Yin soldiers. It felt like he was just wandering around the edge of the underworld without going deep into it.
The strongest man in the world declares war on the mysterious and unpredictable existence in the underworld. He will return forty-nine days later. No one knows the outcome of this war, but they can guess something from the outcome.
Zhuge Qixing's green hair turned into white hair, which may have damaged his lifespan. This may be the reason why he died suddenly at the age of seventy-two.
But in the underworld, it has been silent for hundreds of years, and there are no evil soldiers.
Zhang Jiuyang felt as if he had touched some great secret, and asked tentatively: "Did Imperial Master Zhuge...really die at the end of his life?"
Yue Ling glanced at him and said calmly: "That's what the history books say, but there may be other answers in the Qintianjian's files."
really!
Zhang Jiuyang was about to ask more questions, but was interrupted by Yue Ling.
"You don't need to ask, because I don't know either. With my current status, I can't access the files that record the death of the Imperial Master. Only His Majesty and the previous supervisors are qualified to see it."
Zhang Jiuyang's heart moved.
Although no one but the emperor and the governor could read it, the fact that the death of Zhuge Qixing was included in the dossier is very unusual in itself.
Because it can be recorded in the file by Qin Tianjian, it means that it is very likely to be a case, a... major unsolved case that led to Zhuge Guoshi's mysterious death!
"To put it a long way, I am talking so much just to tell you that Luotian County is really very dangerous, and anything related to the Yin soldiers is by no means simple."
"That... the reason why the old eunuch chose this place must be unscrupulous."
Zhang Jiuyang nodded and said with a smile: "This is the first dangerous place, what about the second place?"
Yue Ling said seriously: "This is the execution ground."
"I don't know what's special about this Xishikou Dharma Field yet, but one thing is certain..."
She said word by word: "According to the law, execution will never be carried out at midnight!"
Zhang Jiuyang didn't say anything. He had actually expected this.
Generally, beheadings will be carried out at the third quarter of noon, because at this time, the person's shadow is the shortest, which means that the Yang energy between heaven and earth is at its strongest, and the soul of the prisoner will not turn into a ghost after death.
No matter how bad the situation is, I will still choose daytime. How could I choose midnight when the gloomy energy is so strong?
But the old eunuch let him watch the execution when he was young.
No matter how weird you think.
"Zhang Jiuyang, I've told you all the dangers. Breaking into hell is not that simple. The previous senior from Qin Tianjian was also a great person, but he still died miserably in the assessment..."
She hesitated for a moment and then said, "You can choose not to go."
"I said, although you are my peripheral, I will not force you to perform tasks. You have the right to refuse."
Zhang Jiuyang shook his head and laughed at himself.
"Do I have a way out?"
"Blind Lin gave me this token just to make me fall into hell and follow his old path..."
After a pause, a murderous smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were full of anger. Ling Guanye's jealous temper seemed to have some influence on him.
"Since he is so reluctant to let go of these brothers, I sent them one by one to see him, which can be regarded as a little filial piety on my part towards 'Master'."
But Yue Ling, who had always acted resolutely, seemed a little hesitant at this time.
"Zhang Jiuyang, to be honest, I don't have the confidence to protect you. What if you..."
"I trust you."
Zhang Jiuyang looked at her and smiled slightly, and said: "This Dragon Bird Sword of yours can't just show off its power in front of me."
Yue Ling was startled for a moment, then smiled and said, "What a clumsy way to provoke a general."
"Just tell me if it's useful?"
She touched the Dragon Bird Sword at her waist, her eyes became sharper, her tall and straight body was like a towering tree, and her momentum was like a rainbow.
"Luotian County is not far from here, and there is plenty of time. Starting today, I will conduct special training for you."
"Zhang Jiuyang, in order to make you stronger as soon as possible, I will not hold back any more, maybe..."
"It's going to hurt a little bit."
…
Three days later.
Zhang Jiuyang was shirtless, holding the Devil Slayer Sword, breathing heavily, sweating like rain, and even his vision was a little blurred, staring at the terrifying figure.
Ah Li stood beside him, looking at Brother Jiu with heartache.
Zhang Jiuyang's body was covered with bruises, and even his nose and face were swollen. It was obvious that he had been beaten a lot.
Yue Ling was tall and graceful, wearing silver armor and a red robe, holding the unsheathed Dragon Sparrow Sword, with calm eyes, like a famous general in command.
"Your sword is still too slow, and there are still flaws in the coordination with the breathing method. You can't predict the enemy's actions enough. You must know that when fighting against evil spirits, a little slow means death."
"Come again!"
Zhang Jiuyang carried his heavy steps and used the White Horse Passing by in the Six Combinations Sword Technique. This move was the most light and agile, like a spring breeze, and slashed at the gap in Yue Ling's armor.
"Too slow——"
Yue Ling frowned slightly, and the Dragon Sparrow Sword easily blocked this move. Just as she was about to give some advice, she suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Zhang Jiuyang raised his eyes suddenly, and his breathing method changed from light and agile to fierce and deep.
The fifth move, which is also his most proficient one... Mantis stalks the sparrow!
Standing forward, Zhang Jiuyang's speed suddenly increased, and his swordsmanship was fierce and dangerous, like a peak, but the connection with the previous move was smooth and flawless.
It was really like an antelope hanging on a horn, and it was unrestrained.
The improvement of this sword surprised Yue Ling.
She held the scabbard with her left hand, held the hilt with her right hand, leaned her shoulders forward, stepped forward and drew the sword, her breathing was like a storm and thunder, fierce and uncast.
The twelve moves of the trap formation, with the sword!
The sound of the sword rang.
The figures of the two people crossed each other.
Plop!
Zhang Jiuyang's figure fell into the pond, and the whole person floated on the water. His eyes gradually lost focus, and the whole person was dizzy. Before losing consciousness, an idea jumped out of his mind.
She did it on purpose, she definitely did it on purpose!
It was to avenge the carnal prayer mat!
So tired, so painful...
Xiao Qingji swam desperately in the water, using his less than four-inch body to support his master to prevent him from being choked by the water.
"Master... Gurgle Gurgle..."
"You are so heavy... Gurgle Gurgle..."
Yue Ling smiled slightly when she saw this, and her eyes looked at Zhang Jiuyang with a strange look.
She didn't practice anything else in these three days, only one content, which was actual combat!
It was also these three days that made her see Zhang Jiuyang's perseverance and progress.
He really worked very hard and tried very hard. Although he cried out in pain, he would get up quickly every time he fell, and he was indomitable, more courageous, and every time he got up, he would make progress than before.
Only after three days of hard training could she be forced to draw her sword.
Given time, I believe he will become a sword master who will shock the world.
Yue Ling personally carried him from the pond, and felt the heavy breathing on his shoulders, and couldn't help but smile slightly.
"Have a good sleep, don't worry about the evil spirits disturbing you, I will help you guard the door."
