Chapter 272: The Eighth Mission - The New Five Immortals 76
Wu Yao killed too many sharks, and the blood of the sharks lingered for thousands of years after their death. What's more, he also took away so many materials from the sharks. The hatred of the sharks towards Wu Yao was almost full. This kind of hatred could even
Break through the fear of high-level monks!
Although Wu Yao doesn't know what's abnormal about the guardian, he also knows that mermaids don't have half blood. If any race on land conceives children with mermaids, the children born will be mermaids, and there will be no mixing of the two bloodlines.
.
Therefore, Wu Yao finally chose to turn a blind eye to the previous abnormality of the guardian.
After all, everyone has secrets. Although Wu Yao was curious, he would not insist on asking clearly.
Now that he knew that the guardian was a mermaid, Wu Yao's attitude became much better.
Even as a strong man in the Mahayana stage, he even apologized to the little mermaid.
The little mermaid, who was still aggrieved at first, was shocked after Wu Yao apologized, and the grievances in her heart were relieved a lot.
His tail fin flapped in the water, as if he was at a loss.
Wu Yao smiled at the little mermaid, showing his big white teeth, and then without any delay, he directly stated the purpose of his visit.
"There has been a bad incident in the mortal world where the statue of the evil god was inserted under the magic circle of the city. I have checked all the capitals of the countries on the mainland. Almost all countries have not been spared. Now there is still the last magic circle left in the mortal world that has not been checked."
The mermaid didn't expect that the evil gods in the world would be so rampant. She patted the water surface anxiously and ignored her own emotions, and quickly spoke to Wu Yao.
"This elder of the Sword Sect is coming with me."
After that, the golden mermaid jumped back into the sea.
Wu Yao did not hesitate, put away the flying sword, then wrapped Mo Yiyi with spiritual power threads, and followed him into the sea.
Wu Yao is in the Mahayana stage and can breathe underwater.
Mo Yiyi's level was low and she was originally unable to breathe underwater.
But Mo Yiyi is not a human being, she is a spirit spirit. After she entered the seabed, her respiratory organs were removed. She does not need to breathe underwater!
Neither Wu Yao nor Mo Yiyi felt anything was wrong. The mermaid swimming in front kept turning back. However, a long time passed and Mo Yiyi still had no adverse reactions. Only then did the mermaid gradually feel relieved.
While speeding up his swimming speed, he also started to dive.
Mo Yiyi was led by Wu Yao to see the scenery under the sea.
There is actually nothing interesting to see on the seabed of the world. The fish are ordinary fish and the seabed creatures are also ordinary seabed creatures.
Unlike the seabed in the world of cultivation, although it is too dangerous, the sea beasts inside each have their own abilities to trap prey, and the entire seabed is decorated with colorful colors.
Looking at the seabed of this mortal world, it seems much quieter and desolate.
The mermaid can swim at full speed very fast. As a swordsman who can kill sharks underwater, Wu Yao is of course very fast underwater.
And at this speed, Noila Mo looked left and right, and then looked, and in the end it was just a quick glance. Before she got bored, they were there!
For the mortal world, this place can be considered a deep sea, and it is also close to the boundary of the sea area of the world of cultivation.
Mo Yiyi looked curiously at the bottom of the sea. She was taken into the sea by Wu Yao. She was still very curious about this place.
"Master, are there human city-states under the sea?"
Things developed so fast that Noila Mo never had time to ask.
Now that we were finally at the place, Noila Mo finally thought of asking.
Wu Yao ate the spiritual fruit and casually told Mo Yiyi a story that was buried in history.
The place Wu Yao brought Mo Yiyi to this time was not a human city-state, but an imperial mausoleum!
There are many countries in the world, and emperors change frequently. A lot of emperors have died, but this emperor is very different.
This emperor is also very famous in history, not because he did any great things, but because this emperor had special luck. He collected seven secret keys in his life and used these seven secret keys to pray for Penglai before he died.
, built this mausoleum for him.
The mausoleum was built in the deepest part of the mortal sea. The eye of the formation was placed outside the magic circle. If the things inside the magic circle wanted to break through the magic circle, they could only break through it violently and could not leave by destroying the core of the eye.
The specifications of this magic circle are quite high. After all, the seven keys to the secret realm are enough for Penglai to do everything perfectly!
Before he died, this emperor built such a mausoleum that could only be entered but not left. He did not seek the welfare of his people and subjects, but only took away the sins of the country.
The emperor who lived a mediocre life said something very interesting before he died.
He said that the life of a mortal is short, and he does not want much in his life. Ordinary people have real estate and land in their names, some silver in their hands to spend, a companion by their side, and descendants at their knees. This is enough. These are mortals.
They work hard all their lives if they can achieve it. If they can achieve such a goal, they will be very happy, and their life will seem to be complete.
But the children of rich and powerful families want more. They want to have rich clothes for a lifetime, they want to have a fine throat, they want slaves and carriages when they go out, they want toys and ornaments at home, and they want flattering people around them.
Three or two friends got together, beat horses and paraded them through the streets. They looked down at the people under the horses and laughed at them for being mud-legged.
The seven keys to the secret realm can make Penglai promise many things if he benefits the people.
For example, unlimited delivery of food to this country - just some ordinary rice grains, just spawning some randomly is enough to make this country free of deserted people.
For example, countless gold and silver jewelry - how cheap gold and silver jewelry were in the world of cultivation at that time. Mo Yiyi purchased the flower spirit stone from the Chamber of Commerce, and Mo Yiyi didn't spend much on so much gold and silver. This was a problem for someone like Penglai.
For a large sect, it’s not even a big deal.
For example, all kinds of silk and satin - this is simpler. The world of cultivation does not produce mortal fabrics, but Penglai can buy them in the mortal world. If a lot of gold and silver are poured out, even if Penglai wants to buy all the cloths in the mortal world and distribute them to
The people of that country are fine.
For example, help the people of this country build houses - monks build houses very quickly and are very strong and durable. Even if you want to make carvings on this house, it will be no problem. It is just a matter of a mental thought.
.
Even if the emperor puts forward all the above conditions, Penglai can do it for him, and even help this country for hundreds or thousands of years, there is no problem!
But the emperor didn't do that.
Before his death, the emperor warned his successor under the watchful eyes of Penglai disciples.
If ordinary people encounter natural or man-made disasters, as long as they still have a little wealth and a handful of food at home, they will not despair.
As long as the court does a good job in providing disaster relief, they will soon find their way back.
But if something goes wrong with the noble family, a large number of them will die just on the way to exile, and another number will die when they get to the place.
Those who are still alive will never give up, and very few can cheer up. Looking at the whole world, which noble family has stood up again after being demoted?
Most of the people in the court are farmers. After the old minister retires, how many of his descendants are there in the court? How many people can stand in the front row?
How many families can last for a long time in the court? On the other hand, there are many talented and beautiful people who appear one after another. They were born in poor families, but they grew into towering trees.
Therefore, the dying emperor felt that it was useless no matter how much he left for his descendants and the people of the country, because too much wealth always brought disaster. As an emperor, he could not
He naively thinks that his country and its people are the lucky ones and can live happily forever.
So he exchanged the seven secret keys and Penglai for a deep sea cage.
After the emperor died, his body was taken away by Penglai disciples and buried in the deepest part of the already built mausoleum. After that, the emperor was buried with the things he had accumulated throughout his life!
From the day the emperor ascended the throne, he had been accumulating burial objects for himself.
It's just that the burial objects he accumulated are a bit special. They are not the usual gold, silver and jewelry, but corpses. Those who committed various crimes and were finally sentenced to death by the court!
Originally, death was like a lamp going out. After a person died, no matter what crime he committed, the court would let his family take away the body to show mercy. Even if there was no family, the court would come forward to collect the body of the person.
But this emperor didn't.
Since he came to power, he ordered the corpses of all executed prisoners to be collected, their flesh and blood removed, baked and exposed to the sun, and finally made into skeletons.
The resentment and hostility in these criminals was so deep that even if their bones had been exposed to the sun, some of them would still have changed. However, the imperial court had a Taoist ministry, and they could suppress these evil spirits.
In this way, these corpses accumulated more and more, although the emperor's approach ensured local security and reduced the number of ordinary people being attacked by evil spirits.
But with such a bunch of evil ghosts gathered together, the suppression level of mortal monks is more or less inadequate.
Therefore, the emperor built a special mausoleum deep under the sea.
The mausoleum can only be entered but not exited, and the evil ghosts accumulated in the country were also buried under the sea as a companion.
Moreover, every ten years, the Taoist ministry of that country would make a special trip to throw the bones of new sinners into it under the witness of the defenders and Penglai disciples.
The method of handling the corpses of prisoners was still used when the previous emperor was on the throne, and the people of that country were also accustomed to this method of handling.
Because of this emperor's decision, there was no longer a treacherous and evil person in that country who turned into an evil ghost after death and continued to harm people. At the same time, the emperor who was mediocre in life and only did one big thing before his death was also passed down to the mortal world.
The King of Hell in the underworld, all those who have done bad things will be judged by him after death. Those who are the most evil will be suppressed in the deepest part of the sea, and will endure torture and pain forever!
