Chapter Fifty-Five: Heavenly Prison Three and Two Chapters in One
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding..."
The thumb-thick iron chain was opened, and a turbid smell came out.
The environment on the second floor was obviously much worse. In the dark cell, there were only a few oil lamps illuminating it.
"Master Hou, it's very dirty inside, otherwise we shouldn't go in!"
Song Changming whispered from the side.
Xu Tong thought that he was not really here to inspect the cell, so he nodded when he saw this: "It's fine not to enter, but I heard that Lord Guozhu comes to live here for a period of time every year?"
"Yes, this cell has too much yin and resentment. Every year during the Ghost Festival, we just can't contain it, so Mr. Guozhu comes to live here for a day!"
Song Changming made no secret of this.
"In that case, where does Mr. Guozhu live every time?"
"Up above, there is a room specially prepared for Mr. Guozhu."
Song Changming was very surprised and didn't know what the Lord Shenwu was doing asking these questions.
"That's just right. I'm a little tired. Take me to have a rest."
Hearing Xu Tong's words, Song Changming was startled and said quickly: "Master Hou, this is absolutely impossible..."
"What's wrong? Can't I go in and take a rest? If you're hiding like this, there might be something shameful in that room that you're hiding in there!"
When Xu Tong spoke, he had already taken out Xu Lai's token in his hand.
Song Changming's expression changed when he saw this, and he quickly explained: "That room has not been occupied for a long time and is full of dust. If Lord Marquis wants to rest, we still have a few clean rooms in the prison..."
"No, just lead the way, Mr. Song!"
Xu Tong's tough attitude made Song Changming dare not argue anymore, so he could only bite the bullet and take Xu Tong to an attic above the cell.
Xu Tong wiped his finger on the door lock to make sure that the dust on it had been there for some time, then nodded and motioned to Song Changming to open the door.
"Buzz..."
After the door was gently pushed open, as Song Changming said, the room was full of dust.
"Master Marquis, look, how can anyone live in this place?"
Song Changming wanted to persuade Xu Tong again, but Xu Tong waved his sleeves and swept it gently. Suddenly a breeze blew up, and the next moment all the filth in the room was rolled into a gray ball no bigger than a baby's fist.
.
Xu Tong picked up the thing and put it in Song Changming's hand casually: "I'm sorry to bother Mr. Song. I'm tired, so I won't give it to you."
After saying that, Xu Tong walked into the room, turned around and closed the door.
"Bang!"
Song Changming, who was caught off guard, was stunned. He stared blankly at the door in front of him. The expression on his face became uncontrollably distorted and he opened his mouth, just when he wanted to curse secretly.
“Buzz!
"
The door to the room in front of him was suddenly opened. At this moment, Song Changming's expression didn't have time to change. For a moment, his facial features were twisted into a ball, his mouth was open, and his breath was stuck in his throat, neither up nor down.
No, the veins on his forehead were all stretched.
Xu Tong blinked and looked at Song Changming, who had an extremely expressive expression: "Is Mr. Song okay?"
"Not... not dead..."
Song Changming almost choked to death with his own breath, but he still had to force out a smile for Xu Tong. The discomfort was as if he had stifled a huge sneeze without letting it come out, and the tears were in his eyelids.
Spin.
"Oh, it's okay. I just told you not to call me for dinner tonight!"
"Bang!"
After Xu Tong finished speaking, he closed the door heavily again. This time, Song Changming stood in front of the door with a bitter look on his face and glared at the door fiercely before turning around and leaving.
"This guy is really not a fuel-efficient guy!"
Xu Tong stood behind the door, looking through the door with his spiritual eyes, staring at Song Changming's leaving figure, and started to grumble in his heart.
Not only Song Changming, but also the guards, cell leaders, and even the handyman here are not simple.
But he didn't come here to investigate the truth, and he didn't want to pay attention to it for the time being. After looking around the room to make sure that there were no secret cells, Xu Tong sat on the bed, crossed his knees, and put his body
The pure Yang Qi completely converged.
Without the suppression of this pure Yang Qi, the fierce and violent energy filled the entire Tianlao in an instant.
Waves of deep roars came from the empty cell again.
“Dingle bell! Dingle bell!
"
The friction sound made by the iron ropes sounded like someone walking around in the cell, but when you looked closely, you couldn't see a ghost.
The guards responsible for guarding the sky prison have become accustomed to this, and have even formed some kind of secret tacit understanding with the unexplainable beings in the cell.
They walked this way, and those sneaky shadows walked the other way. The two walked in completely opposite directions, perfectly avoiding confrontation.
After Xu Tong calmed down his breath, he pointed his finger at his brow, and then his soul escaped from his physical body.
"Fortunately, I haven't taken the Pure Yang Distracting Pill yet, otherwise the soul would transform into the Pure Yang Soul, and these evil ghosts would have disappeared long ago."
Xu Tong Yuanshen escaped from the room, and with a pinch of his fingers, he summoned two divine thunder talismans and stuck them on the door.
If you want to take the opportunity to sneak attack on your own body, these two divine thunder talismans are enough to kill the opponent.
Then Xu Tong's soul moved and quickly rushed into the prison.
The surrounding guards only felt a black shadow flash before their eyes, but no one paid attention to it, because this kind of situation happens all the time here.
"Sir, what exactly is this Lord Shenwu trying to do??"
Song Changming led a group of people to inspect the prison as usual, and the prison boss beside him asked in a low voice.
"How did I know!" Song Changming's face looked very ugly. At this moment, he still felt that he was holding a tight breath in his chest that he could not exhale. He had already greeted the whole family of Marquis Shenwu in his heart.
After saying that, he turned back and glared at the prison bosses: "Don't care what he does. Please pay attention to me tonight. As long as the prison is not in chaos, it doesn't matter what he does."
Several prison guards said yes one after another, but before they could say a few more words, they suddenly heard a sharp roar coming from the cell.
Everyone was startled and glanced in the direction. One of the prison bosses frowned: "Why are these wandering souls so dishonest today??"
"No matter what they do, we just follow the route."
Another cell leader disagreed. Anyway, as long as you follow the rules and follow the fixed route, you will definitely not make any mistakes.
The rules in the prison today are strict. There are fixed rules for patrol time, walking route, starting time and ending time.
The living should turn to the left, the dead should turn to the right, and those who transgress will die!
These rules are all piled up one by one with human lives. Humans and ghosts are in the same prison, but there are two routes each side can take. No matter which side is wrong, they will pay a huge price.
"Keep walking!"
Song Changming didn't want to say more here and urged everyone to move forward, but when he raised his head, his eyes widened and he saw a black shadow in the distance rushing towards them like crazy.
"Be bold! Anyone who crosses the line will be killed!"
Seeing that there was a ghost figure that did not follow a fixed route, Song Changming's face darkened and he pulled out the long knife in his hand.
Several prison guards behind them immediately raised their bronze mirrors, Bagua diagrams, bells and other magic weapons. The group quickly formed a formation, and before the ghosts could rush up, they released a chilling aura and sent out a murderous aura.
The ghost shadow crashed to the ground.
Then when the bronze mirror shined, the ghost couldn't move. Song Changming quickly stepped forward and killed the ghost with a knife.
After the ghosts dispersed, Song Changming sheathed his long sword and frowned: "I have some impression of this guy. I have seen him before. He is quite quiet. Why did he mess up the rules today?"
"Hey, if you mess with the rules, you don't even have to be a ghost!" Everyone didn't find this surprising. It wasn't the first time they had encountered this kind of thing.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the sound of the collision of iron chains sounded in the cell.
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding..."
Everyone's expressions changed and they suddenly became alert. Song Changming quickly pulled out his sword and squinted his eyes to look into the cage ahead.

The sound of ghosts crying and howling in the dark cell became louder and louder, and the oil lamp hanging in the corridor began to swing unsteadily.
"How could this happen? What day is today?"
Song Changming became nervous and quickly asked the cell leader behind him.
"October 28th is not a big day." Several prison bosses looked at each other.
At this moment, the oil lamp in front of him suddenly dimmed, and the entire cell suddenly became pitch black.
Song Changming and others focused their attention on the corridor in front of them for a moment. They felt that the corridor was frighteningly dark today, and there was a rustling sound.
"Huozhezi!"
Seeing this, Song Changming hurriedly asked someone to take out the fire seal, blew lightly for two breaths, and then threw it forward.
The flames flashed in the air, illuminating the surrounding cells.
But what caught their eyes were countless dark shadows, rushing toward them like crazy.
Now Song Changming and others were dumbfounded, thinking: "Did they go in the opposite direction today?"
"My lord, run quickly!
"
Fortunately, the prison guard behind him was quite excited, and when he saw this, he quickly pulled Song Changming and ran back.
Several prison guards had nimble feet and ran very fast, but Song Changming was unlucky. He was a lame, and he ran forward with one leg shallow and one deep. After running a few times, he fell to the ground.
"Abao, Xiao Song, save me!"
Song Changming screamed for them to come back, but the prison bosses just ran out without looking back.
At this critical moment, who can save whom? May you wish you good luck.
Seeing these subordinates running away one by one, Song Changming's face turned pale. When he looked back, he saw the dark shadow rushing toward him. His face suddenly turned pale. He simply turned over and threw himself on the ground, curling up.
into a ball.
All he wanted was to leave a whole corpse for himself. Soon after, Song Changming felt his body sink suddenly, and a chill almost swallowed him up.
Song Changming thought that he was certain to die, but he soon discovered that these evil spirits that eat people without spitting out bones actually ignored him and flew directly past him.
"Huh??"
Song Changming was confused. Just when he was at a loss, he suddenly heard a familiar voice.
"Don't run!
I’m here to save you. Whatever you are running for, just get in here!”
Song Changming was stunned for a few seconds. This voice was too familiar. Isn't it the voice of Marquis Shenwu?
It’s just that it sounds like I’m picking out crabs from a market vendor??
With doubts, Song Changming slowly raised his head and finally discovered the culprit.
Xu Tong was seen chasing after these ghosts unhurriedly. Wherever he passed, the void around him twisted, and an upside-down world emerged.
At that moment, a large number of ghosts had no time to escape and were directly sucked into it.
Xu Tong himself was standing in the middle, picking and choosing, kicking out some smelly fish and rotten shrimps.
Those who didn't know better thought he was visiting the vegetable market.
It has to be said that the number of ghosts in the prison today is simply ridiculous, and their quality is even rarer.
Except for the occasional wandering soul with missing arms and legs that looks sickly, the quality of the other wandering souls is quite good.
Soon the space between reality and reality was filled with a large number of ghosts.
"Rumble..."
I saw the Dream Demon Cavalry starting to weave in and out, from time to time slamming the Dream Demon into these ghosts. Under the impact of the Dream Demon's power, these ghosts seemed to be stimulated, and crazily devoured other ghosts around them in order to save themselves.
Save.
Soon, those weak wandering souls were devoured, and some evil ghosts became stronger and stronger.
At this time, Xu Tong noticed that the strength of several evil spirits among them had improved very quickly.
Xu Tong paid attention and found that although they were ghosts, they were very capable in fighting. They not only knew martial arts, but also knew how to form a team.
Then I thought about it, the person who could die in this prison was extraordinary.
I remember that Song Changming said earlier that more than 300 mountain bandits were originally imprisoned here. Seeing how skillfully these people gathered together to devour evil spirits, they could not be the group of bandits that Song Changming mentioned.
If you think about it this way, it makes sense.
"Since you can eat, then eat more!"
Seeing this, Xu Tong stopped being picky. With a movement of his soul, the reality behind him completely spread out, almost covering the entire cell.
At this moment, all the evil ghosts on the first floor of the prison were instantly and indiscriminately involved in the gap between reality and reality.
Fortunately, when Xu Tong first entered Taoism, the virtual reality was based on the style of the ghost market, and the space was huge, otherwise it would not have been able to accommodate so many evil ghosts.
"It's you!
"
Seeing Xu Tong devouring the evil spirits in the prison like this, Song Changming's eyes widened and he roared angrily: "You are robbing the prison!
"
Xu Tong glanced at Song Changming, frowned, grabbed Song Changming and threw them directly into his own reality.
"Yang Hong, how dare you!
"
Song Changming did not expect that Xu Tong would be so bold. He was caught off guard and fell into the gap between reality and reality. Before he could draw his sword to resist the out-of-control evil spirits, he rushed towards Song Changming like crazy.
But in just a short moment, Song Changming was chewed up until not even the bones and dregs were left.
Xu Lai wanted him to live a long life, but he chose to let him kneel down at an early age. Now that he had met him, he could only blame him for his bad luck.
Xu Tong's approach was very bold. After all, he was an official guarding the Tianlao. If he was executed like this, even Xu Lai might not be able to save him if word spread. But now that all the guards and prison chiefs have run away, Mr. Song will naturally
He died in the line of duty, and no one can blame him.
"Huh??"
At this time, Xu Tong suddenly noticed that after Song Changming died, his soul was not eaten by those evil spirits. Instead, his body was shrouded in a bloody red light. Under the red light, Song Changming's body suddenly changed.
He was so huge that he raised his hands high and actually wanted to tear a hole in his body and rush out.
"It turns out to be a ghost cultivator!"
When Xu Tong saw this, he could see the reason for Song Changming's change at a glance, and he suddenly understood in his heart.
"No wonder they are inseparable from this prison and are not affected by the evil spirit of the prison. It turns out that's the reason!"
Although I don't know how Xu Lai did it, it seems at this moment that whether it is the cell leader, the guards, or even Song Changming himself, they are no longer living people, but corpses.
To be precise, they are just parasitic in the body, and they are already dead.
Maybe even they themselves don't know this.
"Song Changming, Song Yuanming, what a good name! If you are given another ten years, you may really be able to use this method to become a ghost and immortal. By then, you only need to fight, and you will be able to travel in and out of the human world.
"
Song Changming raised his head and glared at Xu Tong: "Yang Hong, you ruined Lord Guozhu's plan, you will not die well!"
"snort!"
Xu Tong snorted coldly: "You'd better seek happiness for yourself. Now that you're here, don't even think about going out again!"
After saying that, white hair sprouted from Xu Tong's forehead, the Vajra supernatural power was activated, and the soul came down heavily like a Buddha. He raised his hand and slapped Song Changming with a Vajra seal.
Great Vajra Seal!
Although there is no physical body, Xu Tong's soul has been polished by the Nirvana Sutra and has begun to have divinity. When he patted it with his big hand, the Buddha's light suddenly appeared.
When Song Changming was alive, although he was a lame man, his cultivation seemed to be mediocre and not even a great master.
But he is actually practicing the ghost way. He has used the evil spirit of Tianlao to practice for many years, and his strength has been infinitely close to that of ghosts and immortals. If he is given another ten years without the help of a physical body, he may not be his opponent.
"I'll fight you!
"
Song Changming knew that this was a critical moment of life and death. If he couldn't rush out, he would probably end up in a state of despair.
Immediately, Song Changming recited a spell and turned into a giant evil spirit with three heads and six arms. When the six arms were waved, a sea of blood was set off around him. In an instant, those ghosts and evil spirits were in bad luck. They were swallowed up by the sea of blood and struggled.
After a few strokes, the soul was scattered and turned into a part of the sea of blood.
"you wanna die!"
Seeing that Song Changming had dispersed most of the ghosts that he had managed to capture, Xu Tong became furious and smacked down Song Changming's arms with the power of the Vajra.
At the same time, the left hand is Sumeru Seal and the right hand is Great Compassion Seal.
The two seals were issued at the same time, causing Song Changming's body to shrink rapidly. The Great Compassion Seal was shot, and a huge Buddha's light was like a small mountain, hitting Song Changming's head.
"ah!
"
Seeing the sky-covering mountain falling head-on, Song Changming's expression became extremely ferocious, and he opened his four arms, trying to lift the golden mountain up.
A classic picture, but not a classic ending.
The moment Jinshan fell, Song Changming's arm was smashed into pieces. The huge force almost shattered his soul.
Then Xu Tong dropped two dragon-beaming talismans with a snap of his fingers. He immediately wrapped it tightly from head to toe and threw it towards the corner, intending to throw it into the immortal furnace to make elixirs after returning. After all, although ghosts and immortals
He may be a low-ranking person, but he is still an immortal.
After dealing with Song Changming, Xu Tong took a look and saw that most of the evil ghosts he had just taken in had been dispersed by one-third by Song Changming. He felt very distressed in his heart, but fortunately, this was only one level, so it was still
There is a layer below.
Xu Tong immediately escaped into the second floor of the dungeon. After collecting all the ghosts in the second floor between reality and reality, he turned his eyes and looked at the third floor of the dungeon.
According to what Song Changming said before, there were only three people on the third floor of the prison.
But he didn't say who these three people were, so he simply went there himself to see what the origins of these three people were, and how they were able to be imprisoned on the third floor of the sky prison.
I saw his soul passing through the third floor of the sky prison. I saw that the cell was not big, only about thirty square meters in size. Three people were hung in the air in the cell, their eyes were tightly covered by leather gloves, and their bodies were covered by four long sticks.
The spear penetrated it and was stuck there like a hedgehog.
These three people have been imprisoned here for who knows how long. The spears inserted into their bodies have become one with their flesh and blood.
Xu Tong originally wanted to get closer, but he felt that there was an invisible force around him constricting the space. If he looked carefully, he saw various strange talismans densely carved on the walls.
These talismans should be used to suppress the three souls and prevent them from escaping by leaving their bodies.
I don't know who they are, and they were tortured by Xu Lai in this way.
Just when Xu Tong was planning to leave first and wait for an opportunity tomorrow to ask other cell leaders about the identities of these three people.
"Ding!"
The iron rope trembled slightly, and then the white-haired old man among the three suddenly raised his head: "Fellow Taoist, don't leave!
"
When Xu Tong heard this, he was a little surprised. His soul was out of body, not his physical body. This old man's soul had been suppressed by the talisman here for so long, but he was still aware of himself.
"Can you see me?"
"No, but I can feel you. Fellow Taoist, you are so powerful that you can escape into this place with the power of your soul. I am afraid you are already a god-like figure on land. I beg you, fellow Taoist, for a merciless request."
Xu Tong was shocked. This old man could even guess his own cultivation level, which shows that his strength may not be inferior to his. Thinking of this, Xu Tong said: "Just tell me, and I will consider whether to help you."
."
"Many thanks to fellow Taoist Taoist Xuantong. These two people are named Jia Xuan and Xiang Ping. My three brothers and I have been trapped here by Xu Lai for twenty years. We have already run out of oil and lamps. We know that we are destined to die."
Soon, I just ask you to go to a peach garden in Suzhou East Lane. There is a family named Sun in the peach garden. If you have a chance to pass by Suzhou, please help me take care of it."
Xu Tong originally thought that Xuantong would ask him to save them, but he didn't expect that the request mentioned was so simple.
"Don't you ask me to help you take revenge?"
The old Taoist laughed hoarsely when he heard this: "For twenty years, I have wanted to cut Xu Lai's body into thousands of pieces day and night, but now I have given up this idea. The only thing I can't worry about is the family member I left behind.
, when fellow Taoists go, you only need to tell them that Xuantong is dead, and they will have something to give to fellow Taoists as reward!"
After the old man finished speaking, Xu Tong also received a prompt from the prop book.
