The gusts of sinister wind made Ren Xiaoyao, who was holding a soul-absorbing bottle that was only a few centimeters high like a toy, shudder. He was so frightened that he hurriedly chanted the purification spell to expel the foul air that invaded his body.
"As expected of a thousand-year-old resentful soul, such a small pit of hundreds of people can actually produce evil spirits!"
Fairy Peony pointed at the rootless water on the altar with her peach wood sword, and the rootless water in the bowl was instantly vaporized to form a network of mist-like gas that wrapped the green smoke floating above the corpse pit. .
"Xiaoyao, you kid is always so lucky. You caught an evil spirit right away!" Fairy Peony turned to Ren Xiaoyao, who was shaking in the cold wind and said with a smile.
"What's the use of the evil spirit? Why can't I see it?" Ren Xiaoyao asked strangely.
From the perspective of a Taoist idiot like him, there was only a faint blue smoke of resentful souls above the corpse pit, and he didn't seem to find any evil spirit inside.
"The evil spirit is very harmful to ordinary people, but in the hands of those who practice magic, it is an excellent material for making protective magic weapons. The evil spirit is like an amplifier that can multiply the attack power of the magic weapon. The blood jade magic weapon in the hand of Gandhi Evans was made by the last saint of the Evergreen Palace using her own natal essence and several evil spirits." Fairy Peony said to Ren Xiaoyao.
"You haven't opened your eyes yet, so you can't see what evil spirits look like!" Fairy Peony continued.
As she spoke, Fairy Peony recited a spell, then stretched out her right index finger and lightly tapped between Ren Xiaoyao's eyes. Golden light flashed, and a whole new world appeared in front of Ren Xiaoyao's eyes.
The green smoke on the corpse pit also turned into many intertwined air masses, and in the middle of these air masses was a human-shaped air mass glowing with a faint red light, which may be the evil spirit mentioned by Fairy Peony.
"Put the soul-capturing bottle in the palm of your hand and recite the Soul-Destroying Curse after me!" Fairy Peony took advantage of this moment to teach Ren Xiaoyao how to use the soul-capturing bottle, so that he would be able to fight back when he encounters danger in the future. force.
"The banner...is as urgent as the Jade Emperor's decree!"
As soon as Ren Xiaoyao finished reciting the Soul-Destroying Curse, the Peony Fairy next to him suddenly hit him hard on the chest, causing blood to spurt from Ren Xiaoyao's mouth and dyeing the soul-absorbing bottle in his hand red.
At this time, the soul-capturing bottle in Ren Xiaoyao's hand was like a sponge, quickly absorbing the liquid attached to the surface of the tower into the body.
The dark soul-capturing bottle made of unknown materials seemed to be controlled by a mysterious force. It suddenly emitted a bright light and automatically flew to the top of the corpse pit, sucking in hundreds of resentful spirits and one evil spirit like a vacuum cleaner. , and then flew back into Ren Xiaoyao's hand and disappeared without a trace.
Fairy Peony smiled and said: "After this soul-capturing bottle has absorbed the true essence in your blood, it can only listen to your call from now on! Now I will give this soul-capturing bottle to Mr. Ren as a gift." Your protective magic weapon!"
After teaching Ren Xiaoyao how to skillfully use the soul-absorbing bottle, Fairy Peony took out the evil spirit in the bottle and led Ren Xiaoyao directly to another large tent, preparing to cast a spell to collect the thousands of resentful souls in the corpse pit here.
Maybe it was because Ren Xiaoyao's luck had run out earlier. During the excavation process in the next few days, he only dug out a few small corpse pits sporadically, but still did not find any super large corpse pit that was said to have buried 400,000 people at one time.
At this time, Ren Xiaoyao even doubted whether Qin General Bai Qi really killed 400,000 Zhao soldiers in the Battle of Changping. Otherwise, why did they dig up the ancient battlefield of Changping and couldn't find the bones of these 400,000 people?
place.
At this moment, the news that Mr. Ren Xiaoyao, the chairman of Longxiao Group and Longyunbi Fund and the richest man in the world, is conducting large-scale excavations on the Changping Ancient Battlefield, has also been spread back to the country through the spies stationed in China by various countries to monitor Ren Xiaoyao's whereabouts.
.
When Ren Xiaoyao was digging around like this, an expert in construction could tell at a glance that they were not laying a foundation at all, but that they were definitely looking for something important.
What Ren Xiaoyao, the world's richest man, wants is definitely not as simple as ordinary treasure, so the intelligence agencies of various countries have sent elite agents to sneak into China, and Gaoping City has also begun to gather a large number of spies (agents) from various countries.
Seeing that the activities of suspicious persons wandering around the excavation site became more and more frequent every day, Ren Xiaoyao had no choice but to once again transfer dozens of counterintelligence experts from Ji Yunsheng.
With the cooperation of the local armed police force, a large-scale purge of spies (agents) from various countries hiding in Gaoping City was carried out, and such unpopular people were sent back to the country for various reasons. As expected, Ren Xiaoyao became a lot calmer.
On October 16, the excavation work five kilometers west of the two corpse pits discovered a few days ago finally made a major breakthrough. A team of well digging teams dug out several pieces of corpses engraved with strange patterns at a depth of 58 meters underground.
Stone.
After careful identification by Fairy Peony, these stones were identified as soul-calming stones used by Taoist cultivators during the Warring States Period to suppress resentful spirits.
After receiving the affirmative reply from Fairy Peony, Ren Xiaoyao immediately mobilized dozens of large-scale excavation machines to begin large-scale excavation operations day and night around the one square kilometer area where the soul stone was found. It took only five days to dig out a six-meter-deep
A large pit with an area of ten meters and one square kilometer, and a stone door with various charms carved on it appeared in front of everyone.
Facing this stone door engraved with various charms, Fairy Peony, who was originally full of confidence, could not help but hesitate, because he did not know how many evil spirits and evil spirits were sealed behind this stone door, and the 400,000 resentments that were buried alive two thousand years ago.
He didn't know what the reaction would be when the souls gathered together. If the evil soul king was born here, he and Ren Xiaoyao would only end up dead.
Just when the Peony Fairy was hesitating, a very bad news came from Beijing. Gandhi Evans' (physical) body mysteriously disappeared under the protection of dozens of national security elites, which made him immediately understand that Tiangang Zhenren
He has officially left the mountain, and there is not much time left for him to prepare.
In desperation, Fairy Peony decided to take the gamble. After setting up an incense altar in front of the stone door and setting up the Five Elements Heavenly Thunder Formation specifically to restrain resentful spirits, she cast a spell to open the door and led Ren Xiaoyao in.
Walking into the underground palace, the first thing Ren Xiaoyao saw was a five-meter-wide corridor that stretched as far as the eye could see. On both sides of the corridor were placed a large number of statues of ancient mythical beasts that were said to have the effect of calming souls.
Because Ren Xiaoyao did not have night vision, he had to use modern high-tech products such as night vision goggles.
Under the influence of the night vision device, the world that Ren Xiaoyao saw was covered with a green coat, giving him a strange feeling that he was walking on the Yin and Yang Road.
Ren Xiaoyao and Fairy Peony had just walked forward less than a hundred meters when they felt their feet suddenly sink. Hundreds of small holes were exposed on the walls on both sides, and a large number of small iron arrows about half a foot long were shot out from inside.
It is estimated that the two of them accidentally touched the mechanism in the tunnel of the underground palace just now.
But for two invulnerable monsters who are not even afraid of modern weapons, these seemingly powerful hidden weapons from two thousand years ago had no effect. They fell to the ground with a "ding-ding" sound after hitting them.
It became a pile of scrap metal.
They didn't know how far they walked forward, but a stone door without any patterns or charms carved on it appeared in front of them. Next to the stone door, there was a stone tablet with many small characters engraved in ancient Chinese.
Through the explanation from Fairy Peony next to him, Ren Xiaoyao realized that what was recorded on this stone tablet was an introduction to the fierce battle situation during the Changping War between Qin and Zhao, and the inscription under the stone tablet was General Bai Qi of the Qin Dynasty.
It is estimated that after Bai Qi killed 400,000 Zhao soldiers, he erected this monument for himself in order to show off his great achievements in leading the Qin army to defeat the Zhao army with a small number and defeat the Zhao army, and killed 400,000 Zhao soldiers to surrender.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord!" Fairy Peony announced the slogan and began to recite the spell silently in her heart. The closed stone door in front of her eyes slowly opened with a sound of "ga, ga". Whether the stone door will be a blessing or a disaster will
