Seeing that his father finally listened to his words, Tie Zhu breathed a sigh of relief. However, what Lao Xu said next made Tiezhu nervous again.
Another bolt of lightning flashed across the night sky, and after the deafening thunder, Lao Xu pointed in the direction of Fengmen Village in front and said: "Tie Zhu, can you see something that you can't usually see now? ?”
"To tell you the truth, Dad seems to be able to see it now."
"So I know what you are worried about." Lao Xu said lightly, "This should be what you are talking about, right?" After he finished speaking, he Pointing at the shadows above Fengmen Village.
Following Lao Xu's hand, Tie Zhu realized that he had been walking with his head down just now and had not noticed that Fengmen Village had become so eerie and terrifying at some point.
It looked fine just now, but after walking a few steps, many phantoms appeared in the sky above Fengmen Village, including humanoid ones, animal-like ones, and monster ones.
The phantoms of humans and animals are easy to understand, and Tie Zhu has seen many of them in Yin City.
But this is the first time I have seen the phantoms of these monsters. These monsters also exist in the form of phantoms, but they all wear black armor and hold weapons such as swords, guns, axes, and halberds in their hands.
The size of monsters is much larger than that of humans. Compared with those human-shaped shadows, these monsters are at least three or four times the size of them.
Tie Zhu didn’t know why Lao Xu could see these phantoms, and secretly wondered in his heart: If ordinary people saw this, they would probably be scared to death, right? He still remembered the extreme fear he felt when he first came to Yin City and learned that he was surrounded by ghosts. But why is Lao Xu so calm? Is it just pretending? Or have you seen it before?
Tie Zhu's heart was full of doubts, but he still nodded and said: "These phantoms look so familiar, they seem to be no ordinary ghosts..." He looked carefully at the humanoid phantoms, and suddenly remembered that this was the same as the gate of Yin City City. The Yin soldiers are dressed exactly the same. Could it be that these are all shady soldiers?
When he thought of Mr. Yin Yang’s other identity, Tie Zhu suddenly felt a little afraid. He secretly wondered: Could this Mr. Yin Yang have moved all the things in Yin City to his home? Otherwise, why would there be so many ghosts and evil spirits in this village?
"Dad, these phantoms look like those shady figures seen in the Yin City."
Tie Zhu suddenly turned his head to look at Lao Xu, and asked with some anxiety, "What do you want? No... shall we come back during the day?”
He originally thought that Lao Xu would be worried about something and take him back to come back during the day tomorrow.
However, Lao Xu turned his head and looked at him and said: "You brat! Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. I told you, I will give you three days' leave, one day to come here, one day to go to Yin Yang Inn , go back one day. Don’t take this opportunity to skip class! Children of your age should focus on their studies.”
Tie Zhu was speechless for a moment. It turned out that his father was worried that he didn’t want to go to school.
Before what happened with Huang Pizi, Tie Zhu might not have had much interest in going to school. But on the day when the sun returned, he saw the beautiful scene of the village flower. If he had been given just one more second, he would have seen what he wanted to see.
It’s a pity that those are all tricks of wandering spirits. But precisely because of this, Tiezhu now looks forward to going to school every day, hoping that he will grow up quickly, and then think about how to catch the village beauty. So even if Lao Xu didn't say anything, he would go to school obediently.
However, before going to school, he still had one important thing to do. He remembered what the fortune teller said, the sooner he gets that opportunity, the better. Although the Dragon Luck and Imperial Qi cannot withstand too much, they can grow slowly on their own if someone nurtures them. In other words, if he really gets the Imperial Qi, then his Imperial Qi can grow on its own.
Thinking of the opportunity the fortune teller mentioned, Tie Zhu gritted his teeth.
I have even visited Yin City, and I have seen tens of thousands of ghosts. Are you still afraid of these few? So he didn't say anything more.
However, at this moment, Tiezhu and Lao Xu did not know that an earth-shattering event was happening in Fengmen Village today.
In the Yin Yang Inn, Huo Xiuer, Fatty Wang, Hao Xie and Zhang Qilin stood on both sides of Zhang Hao. An unknown storm was about to come...
In Zhang Hao's Sitting leisurely, his eyes crossed the threshold of Yin Yang Inn and fixed on the sky filled with strange aura.
At this time, outside the inn, a group of messengers from the underworld - Zhao Li, black and white, impermanent, bull-headed and horse-faced, day and night wandering gods, as well as the mighty Yin soldiers and ghost generals, were already waiting in line.
Zhao Li, the ghost servant of the underworld, stood on the outer edge of the moat of Yin Yang Inn. His voice penetrated the fog and was clearly transmitted into the inn: "My lord, I am a humble Zhao Li, and I have been ordered to come here. Granting the seal, please put away your magical power and use it to Let the ceremony proceed."
As the words fell, the thick fog on the moat seemed to be pushed away by invisible hands, the water surface quickly receded, and a path leading to the inn suddenly appeared, still surrounded by the Styx on both sides. Deep waters.
Seeing that the path was open, Zhao Li turned around and made a gesture of invitation to the respected colleagues behind him: "My lords, please go first."
After saying that, he himself He also set foot on the trail specially opened by Zhang Hao.
The River Styx is a fatal trap for ordinary ghosts. Even for these high-level messengers of the underworld, it is definitely not a place that can be taken lightly.
Seeing that Zhao Li took the lead, the others followed him one after another, although they had doubts.
When this group of people arrived at the inn, the appearance of the inn was completely different from what they remembered a year ago. There were no complicated formations, and there was no fog that obscured the sight.
Zhao Li led the ghost messengers and saluted Zhang Hao respectfully: "I have met you, sir! Lord Yama cannot come in person for some reason, so he specially ordered me to come and give the seal. This is the destiny of heaven. I hope you don't mind. .”
< br>Zhang Hao slowly stood up and tapped his chin, his eyes flashing with anticipation for the unknown challenge: "I heard that to grant a seal, you need to withstand nine thunders. Today, I want to experience the power of this legendary thunder in person. .”
Fatty Wang on the side looked at Zhang Hao with doubts on his face, then approached Hao Xie and asked in a low voice: "Hao Xie, is Zhang Hao a little too excited? What's so exciting about being struck by lightning?" After being struck by lightning, can you still gain superpowers like in the movie?”
Hao Xie raised a smile when he heard this. Wiping a smile, he explained patiently: "You should learn more from Zhang Hao and learn more about the Yin and Yang worlds."
"The thunder that day was not an ordinary thunder and lightning, it contained Once you withstand the power of heaven, you can gain recognition in the Yin and Yang worlds and even the fairy world, and become a true god. "
When Fatty Wang heard this, his eyes widened: "Heavenly thunder? It's still struck by lightning. What's the difference?"
Hao Xie shook his head. Pointing to the sky: "This thunder and lightning in the sky is completely different from the thunder and lightning in the world. Ordinary thunder and lightning are often fatal to people with just one strike." We are dead without even feeling the pain. But as we cultivate, our bodies will become stronger and tougher, and ordinary thunder and lightning will no longer be able to damage us. However, the sky thunder carries the karmic fire of the heaven. , it is a kind of trial that can cleanse the meridians and reshape the physical body.”
Fatty Wang was dumbfounded when he heard this: "Even the yang energy has been washed away, how can we still live? Not to mention the yin energy has also been washed away, isn't this a human being and a ghost?"
Hao Xie was silent For a moment, I thought to myself: After the thunder, there are very few survivors. But looking at Zhang Hao's confident look, he seemed to be fully prepared. Every time he sees Zhang Hao like this, Hao Xie can always feel a little relieved, because he believes that Zhang Hao will not let himself fall into a desperate situation. However, this time facing Tianlei, can Zhang Hao really have something to rely on?
At this time, Zhang Hao looked up at the sky. There were dark clouds and lightning flashing, as if he was in an endless abyss. Zhao Li held the scroll but did not unfold it. He stared at Zhang Hao and slowly said: "Sir, although I am in the underworld, my knowledge of the underworld is limited. My duty is only to ferry wandering souls. I know very little about the secrets under Hades. People often say that Hades is a symbol of the underworld, but I heard..."
"The underworld is like the heaven, and there are thirty-six heavens in the underworld. , and no one knows where the last heaven is. The underworld also has its depths, and compared with it, the underworld is just a drop in the ocean." Zhao Li continued, "The King of Hell asked me to ask you, are you ready? After being granted the seal, you will face the unknown existence beneath the underworld."
Hearing this, Zhang Hao frowned slightly, then relaxed. He knew exactly what this step meant. As Zhao Li said, there is a cave in the heaven and a ruin in the underworld. It is the final destination of all living things and it is also a forbidden land where no one dares to set foot easily.
As a being who straddles the realms of Yin and Yang, Zhang Hao has a deep understanding of these secrets.
The creatures in Gui Ruins are mysterious existences that are rarely recorded in history books.
He took a deep breath, raised a wild smile at the corner of his mouth, and shouted to the sky: "Haha, where the Tao goes, even though there are thousands of people, I can go there! Come on!"
< br>When Zhao Li saw this, he knew that it would be useless to talk more. He knew that Zhang Hao was not a thing in the pool, but the sky was his stage.
So, he suddenly unfolded the scroll in his hand, and as the scroll unfolded, a bolt of lightning pierced the sky and illuminated the entire world.
"Edict!" Zhao Li's voice was solemn and solemn. Behind him, the fifth-grade underworld generals, the top ten underworld commanders, and thousands of underworld soldiers and ghost generals knelt on one knee one after another, as if welcoming Like a minister of the imperial edict, his eyes were full of awe.
This awe is not only respect for the scroll, but also admiration for Zhang Hao, and even more awe for the indescribable power between heaven and earth.
As Zhao Li solemnly recited, the air seemed to freeze.
"Under the dark soil, in the abyss of Hades, I rule the world with words and quell chaos with force." His voice was steady and powerful.
"Zhang Hao in the underworld has a noble character and a firm will, and temptation cannot shake his heart. He is actually the cornerstone of the underworld and the shield of the underworld."
"He is both civil and military, how can his contribution be indelible? How can he Not to reward him with honor?”
“Think of his merits. With outstanding merits, Zhang Hao is specially appointed as the governor of Yin City. He has a fifth-level official rank and is so powerful that all ghosts must avoid his power."
"The Yin commanders and underworld generals need to work together to welcome the new year. King.”
“At this moment, crown Zhang Hao”
"Let the thunder of heaven reveal one's ambition, and let the fire of karma temper one's body!"
"The sky is the witness, and the heaven and earth learn from each other!"
After reciting, an unusual silence enveloped the surroundings, Immediately afterwards, a whimpering sound that seemed to come from ancient times sounded, and the sand, stones, grass and trees swayed for no reason, as if everything was wailing.
Fat Wang, Huo Xiuer, Hao Xie and Zhang Qilin all felt an inexplicable fear in their hearts.
Under this seemingly calm surface, there are actually undercurrents, as if an unprecedented storm is coming.
Whether it is the ghosts in the underworld, the creatures in the upper world, or even the poultry and livestock in the village, they all feel this invisible pressure, as if there is a huge stone pressing on their hearts, making people breathless. Even the barking of dogs in the village stopped suddenly, as if silenced by some mysterious force.
Zhang Hao looked up at the moonless night sky, his eyes gradually becoming serious. He was no stranger to the process of granting seals, but the scene in front of him was completely different from what he knew.
Thunder and fire are common, but such a phenomenon is extraordinary. He couldn't help but wonder to himself, was there something wrong in some link, or was the King of Hell tampering behind his back?
However, the King of Hell has paid a high price for this decree and is unlikely to obstruct it easily. Could it be...that the problem lies with me?
While he was deep in thought, several huge holes suddenly opened in the sky. Although they looked small from the ground, they were actually vast enough to glimpse the sky above the clouds.
"How... is this possible?" Zhao Li was also surprised. He originally thought that the thunder and fire would come as promised, but he did not expect that such a strange phenomenon would appear in the sky. He looked up and saw a few bloody cracks in the sky, like wounds.
“How could the sky crack?”
“What kind of thunder is this?”
“How could a fifth-grade seal cause such a thing? Heavenly calamity? "
The Day and Night God behind him also looked at each other with horror in his heart. Although they are both fifth-grade underworld generals, they have never seen such a battle. Although the seals were given by Heavenly Thunder and Fire in the past, they were never so exaggerated.
"Is this seal granted by the governor of Yin City so important?"
"This Heavenly Thunder Industry Fire is almost comparable to the seal granted by the fourth grade."
Yeyou Shen shook his head and said: " I have seen Lord Yama confer seals, and I have never I have seen such a scene before."
"Who can withstand such a thunder?"
"Although the thunder karma is related to the grade of the seal, it is also related to the person who receives the seal. closely related.”
"Zhang Hao is really a strange person, he can actually cause such a disaster."
At this time, all the livestock in Fengmen Village were lying on the ground, letting out bursts of mourning, and their whole bodies were shaking.
Seeing this, Zhang Qilin, Hao Xie, Fatty Wang and Huo Xiuer also hurriedly hid in the morgue.
In the Yin Yang Inn, the morgue is undoubtedly the safest place.
However, even in the morgue, several people still felt a tight string in their hearts and had no sense of security at all.
Suddenly, the blood-red cracks in the sky suddenly lit up, and a deafening thunder seemed to explode in their ears, making everyone's scalp numb. (End of this chapter)
