Chapter 553: The Lord of Guanzhou Prefecture and Thirty Thousand Hungry Ghosts

In front of Zhumen Town, General Tianming blocked the grain-protecting army with his own strength, and the meteor hammer made a powerful wind, forcing everyone to stay away.

In the grain-protecting army, there are now many masters, including several ghosts who followed Yang Gong into the mountains from the beginning, as well as Zhou Datong, Zhou Liang, Zhao Zhu and others, who all helped him win several battles with the Truth Church's soldiers with their ability to keep the year.

But the key point was that Master Xu Xiang took action and pulled several masters for Yang Gong at once. The old brothers in each village were all old-fashioned people. Although most of them had not entered the mansion, they were also powerful figures who had practiced the five internal organs. When they were put in the army, they were all fierce generals.

Now seeing that General Tianming could not be taken down, they shouted and rushed up.

Some used weapons to surround General Tianming and kept hitting him, and some took bows and arrows and bullets and shot them at a loss.

Zhou Datong even galloped a few steps on his horse, rushed to the front of the Seventh Aunt, and shouted: "Where are the two dolls? Lend them to me again."

Before the Seventh Aunt could say anything, Li Wazi went up and kicked him on the butt: "Why did you offend me? You don't even say nicely when you borrow something?"

"..."

Zhou Datong's face changed in a hurry, calling her grandma all the time, and finally coaxed the gold and silver dolls to come over. He shouted from a distance, and in front of the Seventh Aunt, he and Zhao Zhu each held one under their arms, squeezed and cried, and sprayed at the General of Destiny.

In an instant, two streams of gold and silver air crisscrossed the entire battlefield, not only spraying the General of Destiny, but also the people on their side who were surrounding the General of Destiny did not escape, and the Truth Church's troops covered more.

Seeing that the General of Destiny was sprayed with gold and silver air, he was shaky and about to collapse.

The grain protection army shouted in unison, and they were about to rush up and take him down directly.

But at this moment, the cousin of the Hu family seemed to have heard something, and the hair around her ears slightly blew up, and then she sighed softly.

"Hmm?"

Hu Ma also realized that the goal had been achieved, and gently raised his head.

The next moment, he suddenly heard the direction of Mingzhou City, and suddenly, a dozen feet of altar light rose up, faintly suppressing the fierce killing aura rising from all directions, and a fragrant wind blew over from afar.

It was not the gloomy wind caused by ordinary wronged souls and evil spirits, but the smell of incense similar to that of mountain monsters. It was clearly the strange fragrance that only gods who have been worshipped for many years can have.

This wind did not look heavy, but in an instant, it had blown from Mingzhou City to this battlefield, suppressing the entire battlefield.

Moreover, the smell of incense was no longer pure. It actually had a cold and fierce smell of blood, which blew into people's orifices at once, as if it directly penetrated their internal organs, and their souls and spirits, blowing people into a daze, unable to distinguish north from south.

"Oh..."

I don't know how many people were shocked at first, and then turned around and looked at Mingzhou City, and then they were trembling with panic.

Now Mingzhou City is more than ten miles away from Zhumen Town. It is night, and you can't see anything clearly, but at this time, the shadow of Mingzhou City seems to stand out in the night, so that everyone on the battlefield can see it clearly.

Now, four flags have been flying in all directions of Mingzhou City, standing at the four corners of the city wall. On the highest wooden building in the city, the window was opened, revealing a clay sculpture inside, covered with blood, but with traces of gold.

Below the clay sculpture, it is facing the Mingzhou government office.

The four directions plus the upper and lower parts are exactly the things of the six towns. When they are intertwined, they vaguely form a huge altar that no one has ever seen before.

In the center of this altar based on the land of a city, there is an incense table. On the table, there are three animals and six sacrifices. A row of incense burners are placed. The incense smell gathers and does not disperse. It is hazy and turns into a shadow.

The shadow is wearing an official robe and an embroidered robe, and a tall pearl crown and jade buckle on his head.

The temperament is noble and mysterious, and people will bow down to the ground at first sight.

The sound of gongs, drums, pots, and copper bells is faint and resounding from the city. There are countless voices shouting: "The emperor has appointed you personally, and you enjoy the incense. The official state governor is here."

"Why don't mortals kneel when they see gods?"

"..."

Hula!

With this shout, a violent gust of wind suddenly blew over, and the incense smoke rising from the city was blown directly onto their battlefield, and everyone was instantly trapped in a hazy depression.

The rolling divine power descended from the sky.

It was as if it directly penetrated the top of the head and pressed into the body. The battlefield with the deafening sound of killing was like being pinched by the neck, and all the sounds were lost at once.

Whether it was lonely souls, wronged souls, or spirits, or living people, they were all affected at this moment. They lost their minds and knelt down in the direction of Mingzhou City in a trance.

In their eyes and hearts, there was only one thought: "The Lord of the Mansion... The Lord of the Mansion has appeared in front of people..."

Among the whole audience, the only ones who did not kneel down were the cousin of the Hu family, Hu Ma, Aunt Zhang, and the Seventh Aunt whose face was gloomy.

The Red Lantern Goddess also slipped down, but fortunately she was far away and was watched by so many people, so she held on.

"Finally showing your tricks?"

Hu Ma faced the mysterious and eerie incense smell that seemed to be real, and even he secretly used the method of the Heavenly General Seal to ensure that he was not affected.

He secretly protected the few people around him, but feeling the weight and oppression of the things he invited from the city, he slowly adjusted, and then sighed softly with a little emotion: "Use a city as an altar, Invite Fujun Jinshen, he is worthy of being named Hu..."

"only……"

He slowly adjusted to the pressure, and found that this noble and mysterious shadow seemed to have sores on his body, and the smell of incense was also mixed with a putrid smell.

What's more, one can see that the iron chains are wrapped around his body, extending out to an unknown distance. The other ends of the iron chains are directly hidden in the depths of the night, as if fixed in another world.

Looking at it from this, I didn't feel shocked, but felt some inexplicable desolation and heaviness in my heart. After a long time, I nodded slightly towards the huge thing and said, "So, what on earth is this?"

"Don't be so rude."

The cousin of the Hu family gritted her teeth slightly and said: "You are just a ghost hunter. You are protected by the Zhenzong Mansion, but you will be punished by God if you are disrespectful to the mansion. These words should not be said to you, a hunter, but should be spoken to him directly. speak."

"But since he refuses to come out, it's okay for you to send a message. This is the Lord of Guanzhou. He has enjoyed the incense of a state for two hundred years and is in charge of matters of life, death, disasters and diseases."

"This……"

She paused for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "This is the gift we brought."

"He was young and ignorant. In a moment of anger, he killed five evil spirits, causing him to follow the path of ghosts and losing the guardian gods. Such a reckless move came in a time of troubled times, with monsters and strange people emerging one after another. It was obvious that he would fall into this world. What a dangerous situation a ghost is in?"

"But we have no intention of blaming him harshly. Instead, we have prepared a substitute spiritual throne. If he had a chance to meet again, now would be the time to come with us to pay homage to the Lord of Guanzhou Prefecture..."

"It's a pity that we have to put on airs and force us to meet at this time."

"..."

Hu Ma listened to her words and nodded slightly. She felt that her previous guess had now come to a conclusion, so she was not surprised.

Instead, with a smile on his face, he turned to the Hu family cousin and said, "Is it just that?"

The cousin from the Hu family was slightly silent and gritted her teeth. She seemed to dislike Hu Ma's conversations with her peers, which even contained a sense of contempt and oppression. However, she slowly relaxed her expression and whispered: "You are trying to catch a ghost." , can you learn the method of observing incense?”

Hu Ma nodded.

In front of a crowd of people kneeling on the ground, the cousin of the Hu family turned back to the sedan chair, took out a bunch of incense, flipped her hands, lit the incense, and then parted.

One branch after another, he inserted it into the open space between her and Hu Ma. Looking at the place where she dropped the incense, Hu Ma knew that this was a method of measuring the fortune of the state. Through the appearance of the incense, he could see the blessings of this place. destiny.

The smoke from the incense curled up, and although it swayed slightly, it was still considered straight upward.

It can be seen that the land of Mingzhou is full of blessings and destiny. However, this only lasted for a moment. Before they could say anything, there was a sudden evil wind blowing from the north. In an instant, The incense smoke blew straight towards the south.

Even the incense burnt out. Some of it was extinguished immediately, and some of it was broken from the middle. It was burned and scattered, making it look like a mess.

Hu Ma frowned slightly.

As for the cousin from the Hu family, there was even a hint of venting in her voice: "Did you see it?"

"To the north, 30,000 evil ghost troops have entered Mingzhou..."

"..."

She raised her head slightly, as if she was looking at the person behind Hu Ma and the night sky and said: "We brought the Truth Cult here to collect food and suppress evil spirits. Does he think we are harming others?"

"No, it was us who controlled the hungry ghosts in Guanzhou for you. The land of Guanzhou suffered from year-round famine, cannibalism and rebellion, and evil spirits grew. Wherever we passed, the blessings were destroyed. Mingzhou and Guanzhou were inseparable. Then, it’s a blessed place.”

"If we hadn't stopped them, these Guanzhou hungry ghosts would have gone south to eat as early as a month ago."

"Now, we have been holding back for a month. If we transport this food and grass back to Guanzhou, we can alleviate the problem a little bit. But until now, millions of people have been protecting each other and raising a hundred thousand hungry ghosts. Thousands of hungry ghosts cannibalize each other, and only 30,000 horses are left.”

"Just now, the Lord of Guanzhou came here, and the 30,000 hungry ghost army also entered the pass. Do you really think that Mingzhou can stop it?"

"No!"

She was categorical and stared directly at Hu Ma: "The Fujun in Laoyin Mountain cannot leave the mountain, so the land of Mingzhou cannot allow the Guanzhou Fujun to come. You are a mere ragtag group of thousands of food security troops who have not been tempered. , let alone the enemy of the thirty thousand hungry ghost army."

"We...we obviously had good intentions at the beginning, but he wouldn't do this whenever he looks at us."

"But now, the evil trend has been established, it depends on how he can protect Mingzhou!"

"..."

Having said this, he paused slightly, finally sighed quietly, turned around, got into the sedan, and headed back to the city.
