Chapter 505 The advantage of fully opening the map, hidden maps Qingtang and Kunlun
After unlocking the map restrictions, Lin Xun checked the general process route planned for the underworld game.
Since Wusi City is located in the far west, if you want to get to the capital, you have to go all the way east, from Wusi to Longyuan, then to Luoyi, and then pass through Bingzhou before you can finally reach the capital.
These cities are just the larger counties and cities marked on the route. If some smaller counties and villages are also included, the total checkpoint process may be more than ten.
Lin Xun has three options on how to proceed with the next process level.
The first is to follow the process laid out in the underworld game and conquer all these major counties and cities one by one. This is also the safest way.
Because there must be key information and props about the subsequent plot hidden in the preset level process. If you miss these necessary things, you may get stuck in the level.
The second option is to skip these county and city checkpoints and go directly to the destination capital.
This choice is the most radical and risky approach.
It's like playing a very difficult suffering game. The player escapes from death after being killed by the final BOSS at the beginning. Then he goes through various levels of training with monsters, upgrades and fights monsters all the way. Finally, he can reach full level with a magical outfit and magical skills.
Defeat the final BOSS with full status and pass the level perfectly.
But if the player, after escaping from death, skips the middle part of fighting monsters and upgrading, and goes directly to the final BOSS for a duel, the final result can be imagined.
The third option is to explore freely and completely turn the linear Hakotida game into an open world game.
This is also Lin Xun's current most preferred choice.
Based on the experience of previous chapters, if you want to truly save the world, playing a special end event that is not included in the underworld game defaults, that is, playing a hidden ending is the operation with the highest probability of saving the world.
If he chooses to explore freely, it will be equivalent to jumping directly out of the process route planned by the underworld game, and the probability of finally achieving the special end event will be greatly increased.
"The last chapter was clearly arranged from beginning to end. If it weren't for my special talent and power, I would definitely not be able to achieve the special end event in the end."
"I have opened such a big cheat in this chapter. If I don't do it properly, wouldn't I be very sorry to myself?"
Lin Xun thought for a while and decided to choose to explore freely next.
If you still don't have enough strength at the end of the exploration, or you lack some key information and props, in the worst case, you will have to go through the formal process again according to the preset route of the underworld game.
Now that his map is fully lit and the fog of war is open, the first area he thinks of exploring is the hidden area with rich rewards.
Of course, free exploration does not mean mindless wandering around, but choosing the most valuable places to explore, but the underworld game does not allow exploration.
Lin Xun looked at the map and flipped through the geography, and quickly settled on the first target.
On the way from Wusi to Longyuan, take a small turn halfway and you will arrive at the "Qingtang City" which is not on the preset route of the underworld game.
Qingtang City is also a large county town no less important than Wusi. You can pass by it on the way eastward, or you can skip it and go straight to Longyuan, but there is no mention of Qingtang City on the preset route.
Therefore, Lin Xun suspected that this was probably a hidden area in the process, and a certain plot needed to be triggered to obtain the specific location of Qingtang City.
Reading the written records in "Zhu Chi Geography" undoubtedly corroborated his guess.
Not only did this corroborate his guess, Lin Xun also obtained more important information.
According to the geographical annals, four hundred miles east of the Qing Dynasty, it is called Kunlun Hill. It is actually the garden of Yan, and the god Lu Wusi. Its deity looks like a tiger body with nine tails, and a human face with tiger claws; it is the god who is the commander of Yan.
hour……
It means that four hundred miles east of Qingtang City, there is a mountain called "Kunlun", which is the back garden of Canggu Tianyan in the human world, and the god "Lu Wu" is in charge of it.
‘Lu Wu’ has the body and claws of a tiger, nine tails and a human face. Its duty is to manage the seasons and solar terms in the garden behind the god of hell, similar to a central air conditioner and a gardener...
The god named 'Lu Wu' is obviously the same existence as the white elephant demon, and both are demons converted by Buddhism.
Moreover, according to geographical records, there are not only many strange plants and trees in Kunlun's back garden, but also many "exotic beasts".
After these former monsters converted to Buddhism, they were no longer called 'remnants of evil spirits', but instead called 'alien beasts'.
When Lin Xun saw the words in the geography, he became even more convinced that this was a hidden map full of treasures.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go explore the hidden area!"
He was very excited. In the past, he had to look for many clues and find the hidden map through good luck or a combination of circumstances. Now, finding it was like an open-book exam, without any secrets or difficulty.
As soon as he thought of this, Lin Xun took Tianzi No. 1 bodyguard Senior Brother Bai Xiang and headed to Qingtang City together...
【……】
[High in the sky, you are sitting comfortably on the soaring clouds driven by the 'White Elephant Demon', overlooking the vast land below...]
[The gray-yellow mountains on the earth are undulating continuously, one after another, seemingly without end.]
[After flying for a long time, you finally see a plain area at the end of your sight, and there seems to be a big city standing there.]
[The 'White Elephant Demon' beside you also saw the city and said to you, Junior Brother, Senior Brother, did it fly in the wrong direction? Is that city 'Qingtang City'? 】
[You nodded in response. Qingtang City is not too far from Kunlun Mountain. You need to go to the city to find out some information about Kunlun before you can know yourself and the enemy.]
[The 'White Elephant Demon' scratched his head in embarrassment and said, It's all because of Senior Brother that he rarely goes out, and he doesn't know much about 'Kunlun' and the demon god named 'Lu Wu'...]
[You waved your hand to indicate that it was okay, and as you spoke, you had arrived at the sky above Qingtang City.]
[There are many pedestrians and civilians in the city at your feet, but there is no noise and noise. It looks dead and eerie.]
[These people have expressionless faces and walk with their heads down, like zombies.]
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! [You have long been accustomed to this weird 'evil' atmosphere, so you are not surprised by it. 】
[The 'White Elephant Demon' used a blinding technique, covered up his figure, and took you to land in front of the most eye-catching Buddhist temple in the city without attracting anyone's attention. ]
[You follow the footsteps of many pilgrims and enter the magnificent temple with a plaque of "Miji Temple" hanging high.]
[The White Elephant Demon frowned, stared at the word 'Secret Traces' and thought for a long time. Suddenly he slapped his forehead and said to you, it remembered, little junior brother, the Buddha enshrined in this Secret Trace Temple should be 'Void Hidden Secret Traces Buddha'
'.】
[As you walk, you ask in a low voice, senior brother, what is the origin of this ‘Buddha Hidden in the Void’, and can we beat him? 】
[The White Elephant Demon opened its mouth, with a speechless expression on its face. It asked you in a low voice, "Junior brother, do you plan to kill us all the way to the capital when we go to the capital?" There are indeed Bodhisattvas and Buddhas in Buddhism who don't deal with each other, but there is no such thing.
Those who just shouted to beat and kill without asking any questions...]
[You shook your head and said, Senior Brother, this statement is wrong. Please ask him, is this ‘Buddha of Secret Secrets in the Void’ a disciple of your Bodhisattva, or is he the Bodhisattva’s superior god? 】
[The White Elephant Demon said without even thinking about it, of course not.]
[You continue to correct Senior Brother Baixiang’s values. Since the Buddha and the Bodhisattva are not related, wouldn’t the Bodhisattva who occupies so much incense be jealous? 】
[As the saying goes, ordinary people are not guilty, but they are guilty of possessing a jade. Although the Buddha has no enmity or enmity with the Bodhisattva, his possession of such incense is a fault in itself. 】
[There are some things that a Bodhisattva cannot do without his presence, and since Senior Brother Baixiang is a disciple of the Bodhisattva, he naturally has to do something for him.]
[Now that you and it are working for the Bodhisattva, why not put all the incense in your bag, and when you complete the Bodhisattva's decree in the future, you can transfer all the incense to our Bodhisattva. Wouldn't it be a great thing that will make the Bodhisattva smile? 】
[The White Elephant Demon vaguely felt that something was wrong, but when I thought about it carefully, I felt that what you said made sense.]
[It couldn't help but nodded, but after a while, it quickly shook its head and said, little junior brother, what you said is very reasonable, but this 'Void Hidden Secrets Buddha' is a Buddha who has achieved the third level of fruition. Even if you are the same as
They can't defeat it even if they work together, so how can they steal the incense?】
[You coughed twice and said with an expressionless face, let’s spare his life for the time being. After your brothers and sisters have mastered the Dharma in the future, you can make him vomit out all the benefits. 】
[While speaking, you have followed the footsteps of many pilgrims and arrived at the first palace in the temple, the ‘Tianwang Hall’. 】
[In the hall is enshrined a mighty protector dressed as a military general. He has a pink face and no beard, wears armor, has flying belts on his shoulders, holds a large pestle with a flat end between his elbows, and has a vajra with angry eyes, majestic! 】
[When the white elephant demon saw the deity of the protector, he looked happy and said, Junior brother, as long as we take out the certificate given by the altar master and present it to the monks in the temple, we will get a good reception, and we can also get free food and accommodation for a day. 】
[Seeing that you are confused, it will explain to you that the protector god in this 'Hall of Heavenly Kings' is called 'Saigandatian', and he is a protector god with great power. ]
[Ordinary temples will enshrine "Saiganda Heaven" in the first hall after entering, which symbolizes exorcising evil spirits and protecting Buddhism. The posture of "Saiganda" is also very particular. 】
[If the large pestle of Sai Gandha is carried on the shoulder, it means that the temple is a large temple and can host wandering monks for free food and accommodation for three days.]
[If the big pestle of Sai Gandha is held flat in the hand, it means that this temple is a medium temple and can entertain wandering monks for free food and accommodation for a day.]
[If the big pestle of Sai Ganda is on the ground, it means that this temple is a small temple and will not entertain wandering monks for free food and accommodation...]
[You raised your eyebrows, you didn’t expect such a free prostitution thing.]
[You immediately find the monk standing next to the merit box, take out the ultimatum from your arms and present it to the monk to express your intention.]
[The monk looks at the ultimatum made of silk and recognizes the words on it that record your identity as a monk. It takes you and the white elephant demon to meet the 'Little Dharma King' in the temple very seriously. 】
[After the ‘Little Dharma King’ found out that you were traveling eminent monks and living Buddhas from the ‘All Evils Temple’ in Us, he was very enthusiastic towards you. He not only arranged for you to have a fine meal in the private room, but also prepared to discuss Buddhism and Zen with you. 】
[This makes the White Elephant Demon feel a little embarrassed. Just now, you brothers were discussing killing other people’s Buddhas. In the blink of an eye, you are eating other people’s things and living in other people’s things. 】
[You are not ashamed of this at all. Instead, you used the opportunity of having a good time and having a good time to get information from the ‘little Dharma King’. 】
It is worth mentioning that Buddhist temples in this world not only abstain from food and drink, but also practice dual cultivation of men and women.
Come to think of it, if you have already killed animals to offer sacrifices, there is nothing to be said about compassion or lack of discipline.
[You toasted again and again and had a great conversation with the 'Little Dharma King'. Although you are not familiar with Zen, you have read a lot of profound Buddhist techniques and have unique insights into practice...]
[The more the ‘Little Dharma King’ chats with you, the more speculative he becomes, and he feels that his own magic power is also improving. 】
[Suddenly, you put down your wine glass and sighed...]
[The ‘Little Dharma King’ couldn’t help but wonder when he saw this, what does this senior brother do that he doesn’t like? 】
[If there are any difficulties, just tell me, there is nothing in Qingtang City that the 'Miji Temple' can't resolve!]
[The 'White Elephant Demon' on the side saw this and quickly put down his wine glass, not daring to drink more. It tightened its face to prevent itself from showing any strange expression.]
[It is already very experienced. Just by looking at you, it will know that you are going to use the 'big deception' again. 】
[You sighed repeatedly but didn’t say anything. You only made the little Dharma King scratch his head with sighs. You only spoke when the heat was almost done...]
[This senior brother doesn’t know something. In fact, you senior brothers came to Qingtang this time for an important task. 】
[Speaking, you pretended to be mysterious and whispered, does senior brother know about ‘Kunlun Mountain’? 】
['Little Dharma King' nodded and said, for ordinary people, Kunlun is a misty place that can only be seen and heard about in scriptures and legends. Only monks who are truly proficient in Buddhism and familiar with Zen scriptures know that Kunlun is not a legendary place.
It is a Buddhist treasure land that truly exists in the world.]
[This Kunlun Mountain is about four hundred miles away from the Qing and Tang Dynasties. There are countless treasures and exotic animals in it. It is the garden of the God of Hell.]
[It is said that only the Bodhisattva Buddha Sutra can enter it and take advantage of the heavenly materials and earthly treasures in the garden after obtaining permission from the God of Hell.]
[The person in charge of Kunlun Mountain is a powerful demon god named ‘Lu Wu’. If he cannot bring out the token given by the God of Hell, even if the Buddha comes in person, he will be blocked from the mountain. 】
Lin Xun narrowed his eyes.
Is there any additional procedure required to enter Yama’s back garden?
Moreover, according to the description of the little Dharma King, the strength of the demon god named ‘Lu Wu’ should not be underestimated, and the difficulty of this hidden map may also be very high.
[You sighed, you also understand this truth, but the great Dharma king in your "Bad Land of All Evils" said that it has recently been practicing Joy Zen without paying attention and something has gone wrong, and it needs a ten thousand-year-old herb to regain its glory. 】
[But that kind of herbal medicine has long since disappeared in the human world. After thinking about it, I am afraid that only some of it can be found in the Kunlun Mountains. 】
[You are entrusted by the ‘Great Dharma King’ to go to the Kunlun Mountains to find such a good medicine...]
[Before you finished speaking, the 'Little Dharma King' hurriedly approached you and whispered, Senior Brother, does the herb you mentioned... really have such miraculous effects? 】
[You see the ‘Little Dharma King’ looking serious and solemn, with expectations and nervousness in his eyes.]
[You seem to have realized something...]
[The 'Little Dharma King' coughed twice and immediately explained, to be honest with senior brother, he... well, he has a good friend who also has such an unspeakable secret. ]
[It felt very unhappy when it saw its friend frowning all day long. Now that I heard you talking about such miraculous herbs, senior brother, I got a little excited and lost my temper for a while. Please forgive me, senior brother. 】
"Good guy, you make a friend out of nothing, right?"
Lin Xun saw through it but did not reveal it, and continued to deceive the little Dharma King.
