After the stone chamber was opened, the scene inside was also shocking. They were all strange corpses. Their texture seemed to be made of candle oil dissolved. What was even weirder was that these corpses were all potbellied.
After experienced identification, it was discovered that all the people who died tragically inside were pregnant women, and they were all about to give birth. Their expressions were also abnormally weird and twisted, as if they were laughing or screaming.
The human tragedy is truly unbearable to watch.
If you look closely, you will see that there are pencil-sized holes on the surface of these corpses, as if they were bored out by something, and they look even more creepy.
Lin Fengjin couldn't help but secretly dumbfounded when he saw such a scene. Such an astonishing scene was really shocking, and how ferocious should the evil creatures that were bred from these waxy corpses be? At this time,
Hei San and others also rushed over. Lin Fengjin was in charge of the affairs here, so it was easy to let two or three people into the palace.
As soon as the three of them saw this scene, their eyes widened immediately. Hei Lao San's eyes were straightened and he murmured:
"The king insect...yes, this must be the flesh and blood palace used to cultivate the king insect!"
After Lin Fengjin asked, he found out that the highest level of cultivating voodoo is to cultivate an "imperial insect". This kind of voodoo has transcended the category of voodoo and is an emperor-like existence to all things in the world.
, life and death, taking everything, asking for everything. For those who practice Taoism, this kind of Gu is like a god who has achieved Taoism in the world, high above, beyond the five elements, and jumping out of the three realms.
There are many powerful Gu insects in the world, but why is it judged that this Gu insect is the best in the world? It is because when the emperor insect succeeds, just like the emperor in the world, it will also gather the dragon energy of the world, and the emperor will
People with a strong appearance tend to avoid all kinds of evil, and evil things are dispersed. Gu insects are not something that is naturally raised by nature, so they are also a kind of evil things and sorcery.
However, the great road comes from the same source. After the emperor's insect possesses dragon energy, it is equivalent to reaching the peak state of evil magic. It has also attained the Tao and possesses dragon energy, so it is no longer taboo. More importantly, it is also
He began to have a strong desire to absorb dragon energy for his own use, so he would give priority to attacking targets with dragon energy. Emperor David took advantage of this characteristic. As soon as Lin Fengjin took away the wooden box from Gui Maxuan, he became quite powerful.
Yu broke through the restrictions in this palace of flesh and blood, and then successfully opened such a vicious trap.
After Hei Laosan, Xie Laizi, and Lao Lan arrived, they threw themselves into the pile of corpses.
As explained before, this pile of corpses seemed to be made of wax and oil, with distorted and ferocious expressions, very strange and tragic. To be honest, it would be much better if it were really turned into white bones. The people next to it could not avoid it at all.
, but these three people jumped on it as if they had seen a mountain of gold and silver, and they really enjoyed it.
When Lin Fengjin saw Lao Lan opening the mouth of a wax corpse and taking out the tongue, he could bear it, but the corpse water and saliva inside flowed all over Lao Lan's hands, and he didn't even notice it. Lin Fengjin
They all felt that their limits had been challenged and couldn't help but turn away.
"Strange, strange." Hei Laosan and Xie Laizi searched for a while and said in unison. "I really can't understand it. It should be here."
After hearing what the two people said, Lin Fengjin suddenly trembled in his heart and said:
"Hey, hey, hey, can you please explain a little more clearly, what does it mean that you should obviously be here?"
Xie Zizi said curiously:
"Have we not made it clear enough? Although this emperor insect can only be called a king insect at present and is still somewhat different from an emperor insect, it should still be in this nest and should not disappear for no reason."
Lin Fengjin immediately took a breath of cold air. Although he believed that he had the power of slowing down time and was not afraid of being attacked, the guards around the king of a country were so powerful! There was still no sign of being attacked for a moment.
The king he was protecting was assassinated, and the speed of the attack was so terrifying... To be honest, he had no confidence at all.
The reason why Lin Fengjin dared to come here to supervise the work was because he felt that there should be no threat and wanted to find some clues. Where could the murderer still be here after a few days after killing someone? But Lin Fengjin
It was only then that I remembered that this law seems to only apply to humans, and may not have any effect on other races...
After hearing the news, not only Lin Fengjin was surprised, but even the people around him had a look of horror on their faces. Although they didn't know the purpose of Lin Fengjin asking them to dig here, they looked at it.
These things dug out must not be a good idea. They are probably extremely evil things. What is even more frightening is that the danger has not left, but it is still lingering in the same place. This is a bit too shocking!!
Even the imperial guards' faces changed color, they shouted loudly, and prepared preventive measures.
Seeing the people in front of him who were on strict alert, Hei Lao San couldn't help but said with a bit of laughter and tears:
"Wait, wait, everyone, listen to me. Although this emperor's insect is extremely powerful, looking at the environment here, it should be out of control, so it is not that dangerous. Just be careful and don't offend it.
The forbidden area is actually very safe. This insect has evolved to this extent and usually does not hurt people. It is like a king being angry and causing blood to flow everywhere. But many kings probably have never killed anyone with their own hands in their lives.
"
Xie Laizi also wiped his sweat... This guy's right hand seemed to have just opened the tongue of the female corpse next to him, and there was a trace of blue mucus on it... Then he pretended to be free and easy.
:
"Yes, you see the three of us rummaging through these corpses so confidently and boldly, you should know that it is safe. Isn't our life life? Don't worry, this Gu insect must be living in a certain corpse.
Inside the fetal head, as long as no action is taken to cut the fetus out, it is absolutely safe. The emperor insect has the majesty of the emperor insect, and under normal circumstances, it is not bothered to take action. "
Lin Fengjin had known that the danger here was aimed at the king, and would never harm ordinary people to arouse the king's vigilance. He also said that people with dragon energy are the most dangerous, so he had already sealed the dragon energy on himself
He was so clean that he didn’t even bring the Dragon Qi Pearl with him. He boldly walked over and said:
"Do you think this emperor insect must be here? Could it be that something happened and it left, or maybe it moved on its own?"
The three of them shook their heads together and said:
"It's impossible. This is a building made of ancient flesh and stone. It is good at warming and nourishing, and it has been very effective in raising corpses. These corpses can be preserved until now, and they have been integrated with this ancient flesh and stone building.
We are no longer separated from each other. For the Emperor Insect, we will never find such a good cultivation environment. So it is absolutely impossible to leave voluntarily."
Lin Fengjin nodded, turned around and left, then went to a shady place to wait. At this time, he had almost come to a conclusion. If he guessed correctly, then the other party's next goal was already ready to be revealed.
At this time, Lin Fengjin felt a little strange and complicated in his heart. The main reason was that his opponents were obviously demon worshipers. To be precise, they should be the souls of the ancient monsters. However, he believed that they were just like him. They were all involuntarily.
The puppet was used by Emperor Wei who died hundreds of years ago, and even his bones were turned into ashes!
If the ancient monster trapped in the Yunwu Mountain wants to recover, it must follow the path arranged by the Emperor Wei hundreds of years ago. Just like Lin Fengjin wanted to get it and leave in shame.
Then it must be used to unlock the seal of Yunwu Mountain.
I am afraid that many people will not be able to experience this kind of experience in their lifetime. Lin Fengjin felt like he was playing a game with a dead person from hundreds of years ago. Although the two were separated by a time gap of hundreds of years, they
You won't even know each other when you meet. But it is inevitable to start a battle of wits and intrigues. This feeling can be said to be something Lin Fengjin has never experienced before: fresh, exciting, and indescribably weird.
Time passed quickly, and the three people who had almost turned the place upside down stood up tiredly. They looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time. The disappointment could be said to be beyond words.
The three of them have also been trudging on their own "Tao" and have worked hard for countless years. It can be said that they have devoted themselves wholeheartedly. But now they have the opportunity to witness with their own eyes the ultimate achievement at the end of their pursuit of the Tao. That kind of
The expectations can be said to be indescribable.
However, the cruel reality before them at this time told them that they missed this ultimate achievement. This huge gap between expectations and disappointment was unacceptable for a while.
Only Lin Fengjin has almost successfully deduced one thing, and that is where the emperor's insect went!
According to common sense, this insect has been holding back for hundreds of years, and everything is ready. It only needs the east wind. It is waiting for the target with dragon energy to pass by its territory, and then bite it. After it succeeds, it obtains
What the dreamed of Dragon Qi has to do is very simple, that is to quickly return to its nest and start evolving.
However, this imperial insect mysteriously disappeared from its nest, which could only mean one thing: external factors intervened.
Furthermore, if we consider that among the Demon Worshipers, there are actually cases where they cruelly transform their own flesh and blood into a nest of Gu insects, it is not difficult to judge that this matter is inseparable from the Demon Worshipers.
Therefore, it is not difficult to deduce that the necessary condition for the ancient evil demon to be completely resurrected is probably to obtain the emperor's insect that has evolved to the highest level! The greater the number, the higher the success rate.
This is obviously a double insurance policy arranged by the Wei Dynasty emperor hundreds of years ago. He probably also considered one thing, that is, after a long period of time, institutions and other things cannot be completely reliable.
Those who take away the secret wooden box hidden in the Sandu Palace may not be able to further trigger the chain of mechanisms in time and take the lives of the traitors and traitors who dare to steal David's throne.
Therefore, this is a double insurance. After the ancient evil demon is released, in order to obtain more fully mature emperor insects, he will inevitably promote this "regicide" behavior to create more favorable conditions for his resurrection.
.The process can be said to be one link after another, forming a perfect structure like a chain. The conspiracy planned in this way is really breathtaking.
At this time, Lu Yu had finished going to court and rushed over. After witnessing all this, he was naturally shocked, and cold sweat broke out on his back. He immediately delegated power and appointed Lin Fengjin to "thoroughly investigate" the matter, as usual.
This kind of thing is very inconsistent with the regulations of the imperial court.
But at this time, some ministers came out to advise, saying that there are divisions in the world and each has its own powers. If this kind of matter is a major case, it should be handled by the Ministry of Punishment. If it is a local matter, it should be handled by the governor of Yedu. How could Lin Fengjin be allowed to be like this?
Scholars came and interfered in the government affairs rashly.
Lu Yu was stunned for a moment and then said:
"What the Qing family said made sense, so they named Zhou Huai, the Minister of Criminal Affairs, to handle the case."
No one said anything at this time, and it was all right. However, few people knew that that night, a eunuch went directly to Zhou Shilang's house. This week's Shilang Zhou Huai was originally a neutral party. A grassroots man, when he saw
An oral message came from the king, and he didn't know whether it was a disaster or a blessing, good or bad. He was a little confused, so when he met him, he handed him a generous gift.
The eunuch said sarcastically, saying that he came here just to sit here casually, but when he was waiting in the palace today, he heard the Holy Sage and the Queen chatting. When he mentioned the case that Cui Shilang took over, there was something a little...
Sighing, he said that although Mr. Cui is quite reliable in his work, as the saying goes, a single tree cannot make a forest, there must be someone beside him to help and assist...
Zhou Huai had been an official for decades after all this time. He immediately heard the song and knew its elegant meaning, and hurriedly said:
"I feel that Mr. Lin Fengjin from Donglin Academy is quite good and is very suitable to be my deputy! Your Majesty will definitely assist Mr. Lin in handling this case."
Zhou Huai's words are somewhat contradictory at the beginning and end. The first sentence is to ask Lin Fengjin to be his deputy. The next sentence is to assist Lin Fengjin in handling the case. It is a bit confusing and does not distinguish between priorities. After the eunuch listened,
, but nodded with satisfaction and said:
"If that's the case, then our family won't delay. Mr. Zhou is doing things steadily and is good at understanding the Holy Will. Naturally, he will rise to great heights in the future and share the worries of the Holy One."
Zhou Huai bowed his waist and sent the eunuch out very respectfully, but his eldest son sighed beside him, saying that he finally got a big job, and he could use it to make a lot of money, but he wanted to share the profits out of thin air.
A small amount was given to this pair of hands, and he walked away muttering, looking very unhappy.
It turns out that most of the cases handled by the Ministry of Punishment are big-name cases, especially cases like this where one has an imperial order. One can use chicken feathers as arrows to show off one's authority. The richness of this is even more difficult to exhaust.
Describe.
Take this case as an example. Whether it is the Royal Forest Army, the Yedu Prefecture, or the City Guards, they are all responsible. When people from the Criminal Department go out to do things, they have a set of rules like Cheng Yaojin's axe.
It was an effective process. At the beginning of handling the case, I first went to various departments that had not been investigated, typed a few sentences in my speech, and then arrested some clerks with swords and pens for interrogation. Then I began to supervise the making of torture instruments, which was very lively and boiling.
You have just received the assignment, and your bosses and colleagues are looking at you. Naturally, they want to make a big noise and show off their diligence. At the same time, everyone at home is closed and no one is seen. But except for small fish and shrimps
, the rest of the people did not move, and the time dragged on for more than ten days, which made everyone tired and relaxed, and people were panicked. There was no time to keep an eye on him, and then he sent his housekeeper and retainers to contact him secretly.
If there were no accidents, the chief officers of these delinquent departments must have been as anxious as ants in a hot pot. When they saw the imperial envoy handling the case, they relaxed and immediately looked at Cheng Yi like water, what about the gift?
Hands over the things, lest you don't collect them quickly enough, and then everyone will work together to handle the case. If they can be found out, it will be great. If they can't be found out, what do those treacherous subordinates in the Ministry of Punishments do? Just get some confessions and beat them into a few.
The prisoner will naturally take care of himself.
This move is called the famous bow-butting-shooting move. It is an official skill secretly taught by the Ministry of Justice. It is a superficial skill, but it also has an explanation to the superiors. Your colleagues must also acknowledge your feelings. More importantly, you can first
Make a huge fortune for yourself. The eldest son of Zhou Huai has been doing these things a lot this week, so when he saw that his wealth was wasted, he naturally complained very much.
However, after Zhou Huai listened to his son's words, his face suddenly darkened. He just kept a straight face and said nothing. After his family closed the door, he slapped him with a big mouth, and even more
He roared:
"Qian Qian Qian, you beast, you don't even look at me at this moment. Do you have to wait until your home is confiscated and your clan is destroyed before you give up?"
This week, the eldest son suddenly received this slap, and it happened that a thunderbolt fell on a sunny day. Just when he was aggrieved, he was about to say something, but he saw the old man's face turned livid with anger. He took out the Soho scented pills from his chest with trembling hands, but he didn't even take out the pills. Obviously,
Even though he was really angry, this guy still knew the severity and hurriedly knelt down in aggrieved manner.
Zhou Huai calmed down and said sadly:
"You beast, you are already in your thirties after all. You have followed me on errands for ten years. Why don't you even wink at all? That scholar Lin Fengjin is clearly someone in the Lord's pocket. He will be of great use in the future. For
Father, I am just a puppet that I want to use to cover up everyone else’s mouths!! If you really think that he is here to be my deputy, I’m afraid you won’t be able to hold the position of father’s assistant for more than a month!”
At this point, Zhou Huai sighed and regretted:
"Back then, my husband made a mistake and actually boarded the prince's ship. I didn't expect that the King of England could come from behind and finally aspire for the throne... This time I thought I couldn't keep the official position, but this is an opportunity. As long as
If you cooperate well with this Lin Fengjin and the case is handled satisfactorily, then even if you cannot keep your current position as assistant minister, as long as you can be transferred to other Qingshui Yamen, you will still have a chance to make a comeback."
***
Fusheng had half a day's free time, and took advantage of the opportunity of Zhou Huai and Zhou Shifu to prepare to form this task force. Lin Fengjin also became a hands-off shopkeeper and had a drink in the first floor of his house.
It is estimated that I will not be able to be so leisurely for a long time in the future.
Because Lin Fengjin has made up his mind at this time. Although the opponent used the power struggle to kill Lu Kang before, this time he must stop the demon worshiper's next move!!
At the same time, Lin Fengjin also had a very strange feeling, as if in a trance, the distance between time and space had been blocked, and Lin Fengjin was facing the talented and strategic King of the Davidic Dynasty, engaging in a game of wisdom with him!
Such a showdown of wits is really exciting to think about!
And more importantly, Lin Fengjin is a living person at this time. He can adjust his plan based on the various intelligence he has obtained, but the legacy of the Davidic king is impossible to change.
It can only be completed according to the rules. Now Lin Fengjin is backed by the Northern Qi State. He has the power of the whole country and has the advantage no matter what. In this case, he cannot win a dead man. Then Lin Fengjin really has nothing to say.
.
But Lin Fengjin's pressure is still very high.
The fall of the Davidic Dynasty lasted only a few decades, so the historical records left behind were extremely detailed. After Lin Fengjin returned from Yunwu Mountain and his party, he commissioned several senior brothers who were good at history to conduct a comprehensive investigation.
In the end, King David who arranged this conspiracy in Yunwu Mountain was basically identified, but it was Emperor Wei Ming, Qian Xu, who was not well-known in history books.
This emperor only reigned for eight years. He ascended the throne at the age of twenty-four and died at the age of thirty-two. He left no cultural, political, and martial arts achievements. There are also only a few records in the history books: The emperor was smart and virtuous when he was young.
Zhi Feng, who reigned for eight years, did little corvee and paid little in taxes, rested and recuperated, and became a virtuous king for a generation.
As a courtier, it is quite good to leave such a record in the history books. However, for an emperor, having such a record is a source of suspicion, and even the posthumous title of his death is such a soy sauce.
Just use the word "Ming" to dismiss it. Because the title "Ming Jun" is a bad name in the street. It's like people nowadays, when they walk on the street, anyone who looks under fifty years old is called a beauty...
..Let’s put it this way, if the impression an emperor leaves on others is just that he understands the truth, then he is really a failure. There is a saying that he can’t be famous forever, but he will be infamy for thousands of years...
