Chapter 197 The Core of the Underworld
That night, Xu Ke, who received the official seal of Qinglan County, noticed a huge change in his perception range.
The entire Qinglan County was also officially included in Xu Ke's control.
If only Qinglan County had control of the county seat, Xu Ke might just have more territory and more lives under his rule.
But after Qinglan County came under Xu Ke's control, Xu Ke was surprised to find that the area between the two cities could also be controlled by Xu Ke's vague perception.
Although he is not as commanding as the core area, Xu Ke has been able to identify where there are difficult evil objects or weird things in the large wilderness area in the middle.
It can even drive most evil things away from the official road between the two cities by changing the earth's atmosphere and feng shui.
In this way, people or caravans between the two cities will exchange transportation with each other in the future without having to worry about being attacked by evil creatures.
Tianhu County, which has been isolated for a long time, can be regarded as having an additional county that communicates with each other.
Xu Ke also took the opportunity to send many of his evil creatures to Qinglan County to start cleaning up.
Eliminate all the remaining die-hard elements from the previous magistrate.
Some of the evil creatures that had been causing trouble for a long time were successfully encircled and eliminated, and the pretended magistrate was ordered to waive most of the increased exorbitant taxes.
It only took a few days to give Qinglan County a new look, without the lifeless feeling of decline and decadence.
Just when Xu Ke was digesting the territory of Qinglan County and perfecting the omissions in control.
Things in Dongjiang Mansion finally made new progress.
With the help of Qian Guang... and Qin Shezhi, Li Si'an finally succeeded in getting the things hidden in the secret compartment of the study in Dongjiang Magistrate's Mansion.
Unexpectedly, the thing in the hidden compartment turned out to be a token engraved with ghost patterns.
It is also engraved with the three characters ‘Black Impermanence’.
Although it is not clear what the purpose of this is, since it was kept so carefully by Zhao Wenze, it must be something extremely important.
After patiently enduring for a few more days, Wen Fuyao finally detected the entrance to the underworld from a dream in the future.
Originally, Xu Ke thought that the so-called underworld must be hidden at an extremely secret entrance.
For example, inside a ruined temple, or deep in the mountains and old forests.
But what Xu Ke didn't expect was that the entrance to the underworld was actually the gate of the government office.
As long as you have the corresponding method to open the door, you can enter the Yinsi through the government office of Dongjiang Mansion.
And when you come out of the underworld, you will also appear outside the Dongjiang Mansion.
"No wonder we have been monitoring this dog officer for so long and never found him leaving the government office."
Li Sian was very upset. He was confused and missed so much time in vain.
No wonder both parties searched the entire Dongjiang Mansion for so long, but still couldn't find out where the underworld was.
Xu Ke, who had already obtained the results of his investigation, naturally began to plan a plan to attack Dongjiang Mansion.
The first thing is to mobilize the main force under his command to rush to Dongjiang Mansion.
At the same time, he made a good agreement with Qin Shezhi.
In their strategy this time, Qin Shezhi and her current Yixin Army can also participate in the battle.
After the event is completed, both parties can divide the spoils.
But the control of Dongjiang Mansion is not negotiable and must be in the hands of Xu Ke.
…………
Ten days later, following Xu Ke's order, various people collectively began a general offensive.
Every time you suffer, you gain wisdom. This time, Xu Ke did not disperse his troops, but concentrated his current strongest men, Wei Fang, Yu Gong, Sha Shi and others, to enter directly from the entrance of the Yin Division.
The key point of the fight is the underworld. As long as the ashes of those evil spirits can be destroyed before the other party notices.
At that time, the biggest trump card relied on by the Yinsi will be destroyed, and they will no longer be able to stop Xu Ke's plan.
As for the way to open the gate to the underworld, Li Sian has already come up with the results after research.
In addition to various methods of brute force to open the door, the ghost pattern token he had obtained from the government office's study room was the key to opening the door to the underworld.
As a burst of purple-black light passed by, several people carefully sneaked into the underworld.
Different from the darkness that everyone expected, this Dongjiang Prefecture Yinsi appears to be very normal.
There is no difference between it and an ordinary mansion. The gate, walls, and courtyards are all complete and elegant.
But everyone knows that all this is just a false illusion.
The real underworld is a place where evil dwells without sunlight all day long. How can it look so peaceful?
The people who stepped into the entrance looked at each other and carefully began to try to explore the core of the mansion.
“Be careful, the token has been stolen for so long, the other party probably already knows that we will come here.”
“Be sure to avoid being trapped by the trap they set. ”
Li Sian also learned about part of the design of the Yinsi from ancient books.
In addition to the gate they just stepped through, they also need to go deep into the core of the Yin Division of Dongjiang Prefecture in order to come into contact with the real secrets of the Yin Division of Dongjiang Prefecture.
Sure enough, I just stepped into the courtyard and walked not long ago.
Everyone encountered an extremely ugly and ferocious evil spirit in the garden of this courtyard.
With sharp swords, guns and crossbows in their hands, they looked like a team of evil spirits who had experienced hundreds of battles.
Because I am worried that these evil spirits will make noises and leak the news.
Therefore, everyone hurriedly took action, hoping to annihilate them all here.
I originally thought that the evil spirits patrolling the underworld would be so powerful. But contrary to everyone's expectations, the strength of these evil ghosts is simply vulnerable.
He had a ferocious and terrifying face, but he collapsed at the first touch and was easily eliminated by a few people.
Li Sian even caught one of the evil spirits and used his third personality ability to easily read out part of the memory in his mind.
I learned that this courtyard is actually the first floor of the Underworld.
It is disguised by a special formation, with hundreds of evil spirits patrolling it.
To reach the core of the Underworld, the only way is to find the downward stairs and pass through the five-layer formation full of evil ghosts blocking it.
After arriving at the sixth floor of the Underworld, you have truly reached the core that controls the entire Underworld.
The Yinsi is densely covered with mechanisms and formations, and it is by no means possible to get everything you want just after entering the gate of the Yinsi.
Everyone had already been mentally prepared for this, so they did not feel surprised or disappointed.
After learning the information, the evil ghost in front of Li Sian could no longer bear the pain of searching for souls with different methods, and completely dissipated.
Li Sian did not feel any psychological burden for killing this evil ghost, and even felt a slight sense of pleasure in his heart.
Just when everyone was preparing to kill them all and drive away their souls.
Qin Shezhi, who came with the team, was thoughtful and suddenly stood up and said to everyone:
"It is said that God has the virtue of good life, and killing too many souls will harm the peace of heaven."
"Although these ghosts have ferocious faces, their strength is mediocre, and they have obviously not committed many crimes."
>"Since we have subdued them all, why not let them live for the time being."
Although Li Si'an didn't understand Qin Shezhi's intentions, she looked compassionate in everything.
After thinking again and again, he asked:
"Then how do you ensure that they won't leak our whereabouts and expose our plan?"
Qin Shezhi smiled and said, "That's easy."
He took out a gourd and After opening the lid, a steady stream of suction will appear on its own.
Absorb all these invisible evil ghosts into the gourd.
When everyone saw that she had locked up all the evil spirits, they stopped talking.
As long as they don't let them leave and can't disrupt their actions, they won't insist on killing these evil spirits.
"After I go back, I will recite some scriptures to them to save their souls, and then send them to reincarnation again."
Li Si'an has found the way to go from the consciousness of the evil ghost. The path to the next level.
Therefore, everyone was not confused by the formation, and bypassed the obstacles with ease and went straight to the entrance to the next level.
During the process, everyone encountered the patrolling team of evil spirits more than once.
But the strength of these evil ghosts is really not up to par.
The five people who came this time, Wei Fang, Shi Yi, Yu Gong, Qin Shezhi and Li Sian, all possess at least the strength of the fifth realm.
And these evil ghosts are only at the first level of strength at most. Let alone attacking with all their strength, they can wipe out an entire patrol team with just one move.
"Strange, the Dongjiang Prefecture Yin Division has been deployed for many years, how come only these weak evil ghosts are responsible for patrolling?"
Although the Dongjiang Prefecture Yin Division is not the headquarters of the Yin Division, it is still the most important after all. One of the several sub-altars should at least be guarded by evil spirits from the four realms.
Even if there is no manpower to guard it, at least some more lethal formations should be set up.
Otherwise, how could anyone who could enter the underworld be blocked by these weak evil spirits?
“These evil ghosts are not so much patrolling as they are looking for death.”
After Li Sian captured an entire team alive, he said sincerely:
"Don't say it's us, even some ordinary practitioners."
"Even ordinary monks and Taoists who have recited sutras for several years can easily destroy these evil spirits."
Wei Fang replied hesitantly:
"Could it be Waisong? It's tight inside. The more you go inside, the stronger the evil spirits you encounter will be?"
Li Si'an shook his head, feeling that this conjecture was completely unreasonable.
But the information they currently know is too little, so they can only temporarily put aside these doubts and carefully sneak into the deeper parts of the underworld to see what is going on.
Until they arrived at the entrance of the first floor, everyone looked at the transparent light film barrier.
Carefully stretched out his hand to test, and found that there was no obstacle. He easily stepped over and reached the second floor.
Only when Li Sian tried to pass through the barrier, he suddenly felt severe pain and burning sensation in his body.
At the same time, there were murmurings in his mind.
“Give me my life, give me my life.”
"Why do you want to kill me, why do you want to kill me!"
At the critical moment, Qin Shezhi hurriedly stepped forward and patted Li Si'an on the shoulder.
This strange feeling quickly dissipated, leaving Li Sian standing behind the barrier sweating profusely.
He recalled with lingering fear the painful feeling he had just passed through the barrier.
Why is it that among everyone, I am the only one who feels so painful when passing through the barrier?
