Chapter 235 The Dusty Truth(1/2)
He Liusi didn't know who Zhengyingzi was, what his status was in the Maoshan sect, how many years he had been practicing Taoism, or how many merits he could have in his life. He Liusi didn't know at all.
Even Maoshan Sect and He Liusi have only a partial understanding of it.
However, just because of this soul-returning formation, this Andao Palace built to slay ghosts and demons, and the fact that he would stay here forever at the cost of his life, it was enough for He Liusi to admire and be filled with emotion.
"Senior, forgive me for being presumptuous, are you a human or a ghost now?" He Liusi asked softly.
Zhengyingzi laughed loudly and said: "Pindao is no longer alive. What you see is just a remnant of Pindao's soul. Soon, it will disappear in this world!"
"Ah?" He Liusi was stunned, not knowing what to say.
Zheng Yingzi didn't care about this, and said: "My little friend, you and I are destined to see this remnant of my soul! If necessary, I will definitely help you."
He Liusi nodded and asked straightforwardly: "I want to know why the seniors built Andao Palace. What secrets are there in the yin and yang?"
Zhengyingzi smiled slightly and began to recall the past a few years ago.
Back then, the woman who was bullied by the prefect's brother-in-law turned into a fierce evil spirit after throwing herself into a well.
Zheng Yingzi came to catch ghosts. During the battle, he accidentally discovered that there was a lot of resentment and gloom in the well. Zheng Yingzi's moral character was no match for him.
At the critical moment, Zheng Yingzi made a decisive decision and forcibly suppressed the dead souls underground at the cost of decades of cultivation.
Later, Zheng Yingzi investigated the veins and even went down the well to verify it himself. He found that there was a passage under the well that connected a huge space. This space is the prototype of today's Andao Palace.
In this space, there are dozens of huge bronze cauldrons hidden, and in each of them, there is an evil spirit.
These evil spirits sleep peacefully in the giant cauldron, as if they have been banned. However, over time, the spells that banned them have become fragile.
The poor woman committed suicide by head into the well, and her resentment directly awakened these sleeping souls, bursting out with huge evil force and rushing out of the well. Zhengyingzi spent all his cultivation before sealing them back again.
Zhengyingzi was so shocked that it was impossible to kill them one by one.
With the suppression of Yin Evil the day before yesterday, my cultivation level has been completely lost and I have become a useless person.
But these evil dead souls have been trapped in this deep underground for who knows how many years, and the resentment and hostility in them has already reached a boiling point! Moreover, the underground is very dark, so these dead souls were imprisoned here, but the people who sealed them did not stop them.
They practice. Year after year to this day, the souls of the dead are getting stronger and stronger, and the spells that block them are getting weaker and weaker.
Zheng Yingzi suspected that someone must have done this deliberately, hoping to wait until these dead souls could break through the seal and see the light of day again.
If these dozens of evil spirits came to the world, the whole world would be in trouble.
It's so thoughtful that it makes people shudder.
For this reason, Zhengyingzi had several in-depth discussions with the prefect and told him the consequences in detail.
At first, the prefect did not want to care about these things, and was even more eager to resign and return to his hometown to avoid evil spirits and misfortunes.
But Zhengyingzi told him that if these evil spirits were to see the light of day again, the country would become a hell on earth, with corpses strewn everywhere. Even if he escaped, where could he go? The only way is to completely kill these evil spirits here.
Only then can all the people in the world be saved.
Later, the prefect ransacked his wife's natal home and confiscated countless coins. Looking at the money, the prefect felt deeply that he had never benefited the people, but was helping the evildoers and indulging his wife's family to prey on the people.
The prefect had been doing nothing in his life, but he was finally infected by Zhengyingzi's concern for the people and decided to spend all his wealth to help him.
From that day on, the prefect seemed to be a changed person, judging cases impartially and fulfilling his duties.
In the prefect's mansion, Zhengyingzi first gathered all the dozens of giant cauldrons in one place and set up a formation to isolate them. Then he drew thousands of yellow talismans and handed them to everyone who worked in his prefect's mansion.
.
Zhengyingzi directed hundreds of craftsmen to expand the Andao Palace with Bagua graphics based on the original space underground.
During this period, the prefect cut down on food and clothing, dispersed his servants, and saved as much money as possible to give to Zhengyingzi.
Finally, two years later, Andao Palace was completed.
The craftsmen who built Andao Palace were all hired from other places. Each of them received a generous amount of money and swore to keep this secret.
Zhengyingzi put the dozens of evil spirits into the secret chamber respectively. The giant bronze cauldrons were also melted and cast into green bricks. Red sand, yang blood, boy's eyebrows and other things were also added to them to build a structure representing yin and yang.
The circular chamber of Liangyi.
But just when everything was ready and Zheng Yingzi activated the soul-returning formation, an expert who called himself Blue Protector suddenly appeared.
This blue protector had blue hair, a tall figure, a face like a crown of jade, and a high level of cultivation. With just a wave of his hand, he punched dozens of defenders outside, bleeding from seven holes, and severed their meridians.
Death.
Zhengyingzi was naturally no match for him, but seeing the blue protector breaking into Andao Palace without any explanation, Zhengyingzi had no choice but to risk his life to stop him.
However, Protector Lan didn't even look at Zhengyingzi. He just stretched out his finger and flicked Zhengyingzi's eyebrows. Zhengyingzi's soul was shattered.
Such a serious injury completely destroyed Zheng Yingzi's foundation. Even if she survives, she will become dull and stupid.
But Zheng Yingzi tried hard to stay awake. He saw the blue protector walking into the secret room representing Yin and Yang. He looked up and understood the function of the Soul Returning Array.
Then, Protector Lan changed the effectiveness of the soul-returning array.
The function of the soul-returning array is to nourish ghosts and evil spirits, causing them to devour each other. In the end, the winner who devours all the same kind will be attracted by the illusion of yin evil spirits created by the yin and yang rituals, throw himself into it, and be attracted by the yin and yang in it.
Destroyed by inversion.
The blue protector directly reversed the yin and yang in the yin and yang rituals and changed it into the power of chaos. And there is a certain imprint hidden in this power of chaos.
Then, Protector Blue left.
But when leaving, Protector Lan took away one of the most ferocious evil spirits among the many evil spirits. This evil evil was later the blood evil in Yueqing's hands.
After Protector Lan left, Zhengyingzi crawled to the side of Yin and Yang Liangyi and saw the modifications that Protector Lan had made to the soul-returning array.
Although I don’t know what the mark is for, the soul-returning array at this time no longer has the previous yin-yang inversion. Without the yin-yang inversion, the soul-returning array cannot eliminate the last ghosts left behind, so this large array will also
It became the best place to raise a ghost king.
After all, with so many ghosts devouring each other, the last one left behind must be a ghost king.
Later, the prefect brought people down to rescue Zhengyingzi, but Zhengyingzi knew that he had only a short time. In the last few days, Zhengyingzi finally figured out the function of the mysterious mark.
This mark seems to be a key. As long as anyone who comes in also has this mark, they will not be harmed by the power of chaos.
As for what he can do after entering, Zhengyingzi has no idea.
In desperation, Zhengyingzi begged the eunuch to send him into the soul-returning formation, and finally set up a formation at the cost of his life.
What Zheng Yingzi has to do is to seal his last remnant soul in the yin and yang.
At that time, the power of chaos in the Yin-Yang Room was not very strong. A living person could survive for a moment at most if he entered.
The prefect found twenty soldiers who were willing to sacrifice their lives, entered Yin Yang Liang Yi, and carved formation runes on the ground.
After the formation was completed, Zhengyingzi immediately committed suicide in the secret room and sealed the remaining soul in it.
Before that, Zhengyingzi begged the eunuch to wait until he resigned, then go to the south to look for the Maoshan Sect and ask the leader of the Maoshan Sect to come here in person. His remaining soul was waiting for the arrival of his fellow sect.
Zhengyingzi calculated that it might take another ten years for the ghosts and demons in the Andao Palace to devour each other. Before that, Wending County was peaceful and worry-free. However, before the expiration of ten years, Master Maoshan must come, otherwise it will be...
A disaster for the common people.
However, God is not as good as man, and Zhengyingzi never expected that not long after he left his remnant soul in Andao Palace forever, war would break out in the world.
The rebels invaded Wending County, and the prefect escaped from the city by chance. His whereabouts since then are unknown, and it is unknown whether he went south to look for the Maoshan Cult.
A few years later, Zhengyingzi did not wait for the teaching of our religion, but instead waited for He Liusi.
Such a chance can be regarded as miraculous. The dust-laden truth has finally been revealed to the world.
Listening to Zheng Yingzi's story about the past, He Liusi couldn't help clenching his fists.
Protector Lan, this is Protector Lan again. This is not the first time He Liusi has heard this name.
In Sun Sage Buddhism, this blue protector's status is above the Twelve Holy Orders. His strength is extraordinary and he has the magical power to break the killing array.
He Liusi already knew that everything that happened here was inseparable from Dairisheng Buddhism.
But he didn't expect that this soul-returning formation would be modified by Protector Lan.
With his strength, he could have come to kill Zhengyingzi when Andao Palace was just being built. But he waited until Andao Palace was built and the soul-returning array was opened before he intervened.
What was his purpose in modifying the soul-returning array? He Liusi didn't know.
But He Liusi finally made it clear what happened in Wending County over the years.
The dozens of evil spirits in the Andao Palace are none other than the heroes who formed an alliance to exterminate the heretics fifty years ago. After the death of these first-rate masters, their souls were all hidden underground in Wending County, where they remained dark for decades.
, gradually cultivated into evil spirits in the endless Yin Qi.
Decades later, Zhengyingzi traveled here and performed divination in the city, but was invited by the prefect to exorcise ghosts. Zhengyingzi accidentally discovered the secrets underground, and persuaded the prefect to build Andao Palace and set up a soul-returning array to kill these ghosts.
Evil.
When Andao Palace was built and the Soul Returning Array was opened, Protector Lan came uninvited. Not only did he injure Zhengyingzi, but he also changed the role of the Soul Returning Array, making it the best place for the Great Sun Sage Buddhism to raise ghost kings.
Finally, when leaving, Protector Blue also took away an evil spirit.
This evil evil is the blood evil. According to Yueqing, this blood evil was given by Protector Lan and asked him to feed it carefully. However, when Yueqing collected the Yin souls, it was accidentally eaten by the blood evil, and the blood evil separated from Yueqing.
control.
But the appearance of Yun Ge directly drove back the blood evil that no one was trying to subdue. Not only that, Yun Ge chased him all the way, but the blood evil fled all the way and returned to Andao Palace to hide.
After that, Jiang Hua's army launched a rebellion, and rebels rose up in various places. The situation in Da'an Dynasty was turbulent. Only Yunge was left guarding Andao Palace.
