Chapter 316: Refining falsehoods into reality, the pages of the book of life and death
“You bull-headed and horse-faced judges who pervert the law, just wait... Once someone and I gain power, we must sweep away the evil atmosphere and evil atmosphere in hell... Ah!”
He Shen opened his eyes suddenly, sweat pouring from his chubby round face.
"The Emperor of Heaven... no, Lord City Lord? It turns out this is just..."
It took a while before he woke up.
Mainly because this time the "illusion" was too real, He Shen could even clearly remember how painful and torturous he was in the "Eighteen Levels of Hell".
Moreover, it’s not just two days in one day, it’s a whole hundred years.
"Sir, He Shen's performance may be a bit embarrassing... I made you laugh..."
He Shen's face looked a little sad.
After all, after entering the "Taixu Illusion Realm", from the beginning to the end, I have been passively "being beaten" and acting like a cow.
There is no good performance at all, it can be said that it is always useless!
As a "test" set by the city lord, no matter how you look at your performance, you should be unqualified!
“Although I can’t say it’s very good, it’s still qualified...”
However, it was unexpected.
Xia Tian’s words did not contain much blame.
"This Taixu illusion is mainly based on dreams, and it blocks people's memories. Everything is not completely controlled by oneself. You can say at the end that you want to punish these corrupt officials and bad habits. This is already a breakthrough within yourself..."
As the saying goes, you have something to think about every day and something to dream about at night.
The dream itself in this "too illusory realm" is aimed at the "flaws" in people's hearts.
So before entering it, except for Huang Rong, the performance of the rest of the people, including himself, could only be said to be unsatisfactory.
“I didn’t expect that in the illusion, the Lord of the City turned out to be the ‘Emperor of Heaven’…”
But seeing Xia Tian recognized himself.
He Shen immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It was not in vain that he had spent hundreds of years of hard work in this illusion.
However, in addition to the various sufferings he suffered, Heshen's memory is equally profound.
This is the scene when the "Emperor of Heaven" inspects hell in Xia Tian.
Billions of hell creatures prostrate themselves in worship. In their own eyes, they all bowed down and knelt down!
"Is that true or false?"
He Shen couldn't help but think of the words on the archway he saw when he entered the "Taixu Illusion".
“When the false becomes true, the true is also false, and there is something without action and nothing at all.”
Even if it is false now, it can still be true in the future!
"As long as we stay close to him, if Bai Yujing really becomes the 'Heavenly Court', although Shen and I cannot be the number one generals like 'General Zhao Yun', we can at least become the gods of wealth. A similar position?”
He Shen felt a strong desire in his heart.
Obviously, the mentality of this corrupt official in history has indeed changed. His pursuit of power does not seem to have weakened, but has become more intense.
This is actually not in line with the expectations at the beginning of summer.
He really doesn’t know, is this good or bad?
However, those experiences at the "lower level" in the dream at least made the once-high-ranking "Master He" understand the suffering of ordinary people, and even more deeply hate some corruption and perversion of the law.
Although it cannot be said that he suddenly changed from a corrupt official to an upright official, at least he has a certain ability to empathize with ordinary people, which can be considered a success.
Besides, for Xia Tian, after He Shen clears the customs, another "gain" may be the key point.
[A human hero entered the 'Taixu Illusion Realm' through the secret realm passage controlled by you, and completed an 'experience'. Because of your identity as a human lord, your control over the secret realm is +0.5%. You Got an opportunity to consume the power of luck to "refine falsehood into reality" from Taixu Illusion...]
As a golden hero with high potential, He Shen "cleared" Taixu Illusion. The increased degree of control is not too high, even only half of Huang Rong's.
However, Xia Tian's eyes couldn't help but widen because of its items that could "refining falsehood into reality".
Just because it appears in the field of vision.
Suddenly, it was a book in an illusory state made of black material and shrouded in mist, with the three characters "Book of Life and Death" written on it!
“Good guy!”
Xia Tian’s eyes widened and he called out “Good guy”.
The Book of Life and Death, has anything of this level been released?
However, take a closer look.
[Book of Life and Death · Pages (gold)]
[Type] Rare treasure
[Characteristics] Leave a name (the person who left his name in the Book of Life and Death, what happened in his life) All the deeds experienced will appear on it), reincarnation (after encountering death, you can use the Book of Life and Death to 'resurrect' once, and you need to consume the Book of Life and Death page)
[Explanation] One of the legendary artifacts of the human race's underworld. "Projection", consuming ten thousand luck can "refine falsehood into reality".
[Remarks] The names on the book pages can be changed, but it requires a certain amount of your own luck.
"The Book of Life and Death·Fake, a rare treasure?"
Obviously, this is just the Book of Life and Death in an "illusory dream".
Although it does have some "artifact" abilities!
But it is just a golden treasure, which is far from the real Book of Life and Death.
However, this is normal.
In fact, the items that can be evolved from the Taixu Illusion Realm are themselves restricted by the current rules of the Eternal Land.
At present, it is impossible to truly have super artifacts such as the "Book of Life and Death and the List of Gods".
Of course, this thing definitely still has a certain "value" to Xia Tian.
Although it is true that "the country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change."
He Shen may still be greedy for money and power.
But this piece of "paper" with his name written on it is enough to put it on the forehead of "the most corrupt official in ancient China" like a curse!
I can also observe the other party's every move at any time, so I can naturally use this controversial figure with confidence.
Of course, for He Shen, this is not necessarily a bad thing.
When Xia Tian encounters danger in the future, he will naturally take action if he notices it.
The most important thing is that this "reincarnation" function is equivalent to giving He Shen a chance to "resurrection". This is the real life-saving artifact!
Of course, if He Shen's performance is not satisfactory, Xia Tian doesn't mind, he will cross out the name on this "life and death book" and change it to another person.
“Next, the territory will prepare for the auction. You already know the specific process. However, this time, the auction needs to be of a higher level... because, except for the original human lords, this time There may also be some special historical prince-level figures, such as Lu Bu and Song Jiang..."
Afterwards, Xia Tian looked at He Shen and said.
"Lu Bu, Song Jiang! Are these two people also near our Bai Yujing? Don't worry, sir, He Shen will be well prepared!"
Xia Tian discovered that He Shen had another benefit.
That is, his era was far behind enough.
As a person who died almost in modern times, only one year away from the 19th century, and in order to cater to Qianlong’s preferences, Heshen really made great efforts in history, culture, and military aspects. Hard work.
For this reason, it can be said that I can know the lives of most ancient people very accurately, and they have a lot in common with me!
The most important thing is that he really knows how to gain wealth.
You must know that the "fine" that Xia Tian set for those water tribe forces before was only 10,000 spirit stones, but from the account book, He Shen collected treasures worth almost 15,000.
Even a famous leader of the water tribe was very grateful to him, thinking that having more friends was a good thing, as it would make him have a good impression in front of the "army commander".
Xia Tian is actually quite happy to see such "greed for money".
"You and Master Hongfu Pavilion should discuss it together. My request is that this auction will not only be an auction, but also an 'arms display' in itself... I hope, To a certain extent, you can "conquer the enemy without fighting" and win some peace for the territory!"
And Zai Heshen went to Fangshi with excitement and the "letter of appointment" he left on his own. after.
"However, speaking of it, it's time to go to the 'underworld' in this territory..."
Xia Tian remembered something.
I walked out of the lord's mansion and walked alone. The clouds and mist flowed under my feet, and I came to the edge of the "Houtu God Statue".
Different from ordinary strange buildings, the Houtu Statue is actually quite special.
Imagination requires a large amount of "power of faith" to grow, and a certain number of "believers" to maintain its power.
Thanks to the previous defeat of a large number of catastrophic creatures and the circulation of Tianyuan coins, a large number of "Silver Beads of Willing Power" have been accumulated in these days.
Xia Tian relied on the "Midas to Gold" to transform everything into "Houtu's exclusive" power of faith, which also made this "human race god statue" more and more majestic now!
Under the statue, where the five colored spiritual soils gather, the "Bone Burial Ground" that has sunk into the ground has now changed greatly from its original appearance.
Although it is still filled with mist, you can vaguely see an illusory Huangquan Road, leading directly to an equally illusory palace with the words "Underworld" written on it!
And at the intersection.
"Lord City Lord!"
Several tall and fully armed barbarians saluted immediately after seeing Xia Tian. All these barbarians are fanatical believers of "Houtu", and they pray devoutly to the "Houtu Statue" three times a day. For Xia Tian, he can maintain the Houtu Statue without promoting the "god" belief on a large scale. A channel of power!
In addition, these barbarians came back from the "Taotie Island" and did not have much contact with the people in Bai Yujing. In a sense, they are very suitable for being located in The guard work of the "Hulao" in the "underworld".
“Well, where is Old Man Bone?”
"I am playing chess with that girl in Hulao..."
Next to "Hulao". .
Two humans, one old and one young, hold chess pieces in their forehands and are placing pieces on a Go table made of the same stone.
The black and white chess pieces fell with a clear "click" sound, forming two black and white dragons entwined, fiercely attacking and defending each other.
An important function of the "underworld" derived from the Houtu statue is to restore the appearance of the "undead" to its normal form before death.
It has to be said that as the "High Priest of the Houtu God Sect" who was personally ordered to serve, Mr. Gu's original appearance is indeed "quite a leader", with a heroic appearance and a kind attitude, and he especially likes to support the younger generations!
Speaking of which, these two people in front of me.
One person is a "dead monk", and the power on his body symbolizes death. The other person is a "wood monk", and his power symbolizes life!
On the contrary, it fits well with the black and white Go game.
"Young Miss Siming is really a master of chess. I lost again in the middle game... I have to say that this way of 'playing chess' is really profound. I thought I had learned a lot these days. Yes, there is still a huge gap.”
After a black and white confrontation, Yi Gu Lao praised Young Siming and was defeated.
Although, due to his physical condition, Bone Lao spends most of his time in this "underworld", he is not isolated from the world.
In fact, in order to better spread the concept of "Houtu Gods" and help the gods "come" to the eternal land as soon as possible, Gu Lao has been carefully studying various methods of the "Shenzhou Human Race" Knowledge!
This human civilization that has spread for thousands of years and been passed down by countless people has indeed given him countless novelties.
What's more important is that the outstanding figures of this human civilization called "Huaxia" are like crucian carp crossing the river in endlessly!
You know, Shao Siming didn't learn Go at all before, but he was able to beat him in just a few days. This is the gap in potential between the two sides!
If I could encounter those "soul tribes" again, I would definitely be able to avenge the "genocide" for my own tribe.
"Lord City Lord..."
Because he was too involved in playing chess, Mr. Bones noticed that Xia Tian had actually been watching the two of them playing chess for a while, and he hurriedly stood up.
"It's okay, Mr. Gu doesn't need to be polite... I just have time to take a look at Mr. Gu and this girl."
Xia Tian looked at Shao Siming.
On the latter's body, an illusory black chain can be seen, which is placed around the neck, extends for a distance and then merges into the "Tiger Prison"!
This is not the "shackles of heaven and earth" in the eternal land, but the evolution of Wu Song's natal magical objects.
Once you are shackled, you will be restricted by the emblem. You will not be able to use all your spiritual energy, and you will not be able to leave the "tiger prison" too far.
Even if you escape with some special space treasures, you will still be pulled back by the "Tiger Prison"!
"I have been in seclusion these past few days, but I forgot to thank Miss Siming for helping solve the problem of 'Tang Bohu'."
"Now, his condition has improved, and he should be able to wake up soon."
Just like the judgment before Xia Tian.
Hua Tuo, who has extraordinary medical skills, Lai Buyi, who has extraordinary Feng Shui skills, and Shao Siming, an elder of the Yin and Yang family, jointly solved the "soul separation technique" on Tang Bohu. difficulty.
In fact, Hua Tuo seemed to have gained something vaguely, and was ready to try to research some kind of medicine that could target this "soul separation technique".
However, Shao Siming was willing to help because although the two were "enemies", they had faced the rioting "Mechanism Beast Qinglong" before, and Xia Tian used the "Taotie Cauldron" to forcibly absorb the power of thunder and save her. life.
That’s why she was willing to take action to remove the soul-leaving technique of "Donghuang Taiyi"!
And Xia Tian also reciprocates the favor, although as a "prisoner", he will be imprisoned around this "tiger prison".
But Shao Siming can actually move freely to a certain extent.
Reading, playing chess, drinking tea, and even practicing dancing...
And all of this was naturally because Xia Tian fell in love with Shao Siming's "body".
Yes, I have a crush on someone.
The armies and departments in Baiyu Jingzhong generally have two commanders, one commander and one deputy.
The comprehensive value of the "Houtu God Statue" and the derived "Yin Cao Underworld" to Bai Yujing is definitely not inferior to the "Langhuan Jade Mansion" and other buildings.
Because of this, in addition to the high priest "Old Bone", Xia Tian is also preparing to add another leader.
Because it would not be appropriate for a relatively "key" position like this to be completely in the hands of a human race from another world!
Even though Gu Lao didn’t show any ambition.
But Xia Tian still feels that it is necessary to add a person from Earth.
There is no doubt that the girl in front of me is a very suitable candidate.
The word Shao Siming itself refers to the gods in Chu legends in the Warring States Period who control human life, soul, life, death, misfortune and other related gods.
Although, the Yin Yang family only used this name to set up the "position" of the sect.
But it is not aimless.
At least, Shao Siming does have a lot of attainments in these aspects, and he can definitely meet the requirements of this "Houtu Saint"!
The only problem is probably that Shao Siming is too taciturn.
Even though he became a prisoner, he didn't panic after waking up.
Even after Xia Tian said that the Yin and Yang family chose to exchange public wealth and lose hatred, not her.
There is not much surprise on his face!
Instead, he very calmly accepted his status as a "captive" after being abandoned by the Yin Yang family.
I have been very safe in the Tiger Prison these days, and I have not done anything extraordinary or tried to escape.
But if you want to recruit her into the territory, or even become a "Houtou Saint", this seems not enough?
After all, even if it’s just for window dressing. It's not like making a "mute" saint, right?
What's more, the high priest, Bone Lao, himself cannot speak in a normal way.
Another cold-blooded "holy girl" who is also silent!
It is really far away to truly expand or even maintain a "Houtu God Statue".
“Well, you are unwilling to speak and communicate with others. Does this seem to be some kind of psychological problem?”
Xia Tian suddenly thought of something.
Speaking of it, in the original world.
In the beginning, Shao Siming was just an elite disciple of the Yin and Yang family who was talented in practicing Yin and Yang magic and was known as the "Five Spirits Xuantong"!
Although the Yin Yang family is a branch of "Taoism", it has already gradually embarked on an evil path.
Even, there is an intention to replace Taoism and become "authentic".
Once, a man sneaked into the Yin Yang family camp and became an elite disciple.
But his true identity is that of a young man who is looking for his sister "Xiaoyi", a disciple of the Taoist Tianzong. His identity was exposed because he was not acting secretly!
The senior officials of the Yin Yang Family, Donghuang Taiyi, Yueshen and others arranged for him to have a duel with "Shao Siming" who was also a disciple of "Five Spirits Xuantong" at that time.
During the duel, the "little spirit" who had the upper hand seemed to have noticed something, and was voluntarily executed by the girl with the "Manye Flying Flower Style"...
And this one The "Five Spirits Xuantong" girl from Mube was promoted to become a new generation of Yin-Yang family wood elder "Shao Siming".
"When I saw Shao Siming's name with my insightful eye before, he called him 'Xiaoyi'... Could it be that..."
Xia Tian vaguely guessed in his heart.
What if he was really forced to execute himself under the orders of his master, and for the sake of his family, he risked his own life and came to look for his brother?
So, it is understandable that Shao Siming has become taciturn since then, and he is not too sad about being abandoned by the senior officials of the Yin and Yang family.
However, one must find a way to relieve such emotions, otherwise it is very likely that one will stop at the Five Extraordinary Realms.
"Fortunately, Bai Yujing now has a channel that can solve his psychological problems..."
He Shen's "greed" and "official" style at heart are his own psychological problems , it has been "improved" to a certain extent after going through the Taixu Illusion Realm.
And Shao Siming obviously also has "psychological" problems, so the "Taixu Illusion" probably also applies!
"If you are willing, crush a 'token' and enter the sea of illusion to face your heart. Maybe you can find the answer you want?"
Summer Finger between.
Some luck condensed and turned into a "token" that exuded jade-white light. After leaving it behind, it left under the gaze of the masked girl.
"Taixu Illusion?"
Shao Siming stared at the writing on the token. Under the veil, his eyes were as deep as pools of water.
For a long time, he slowly reached out and picked it up.
