The four of them raised their heads and looked at the majestic city in front of them, their eyes widened.
It always feels like there is no end to this city.
While the four of them were watching.
I saw the gate of Wusi City slowly opening a gap.
Under the mist, a group of Yin soldiers were seen walking out. The leader of the ghost general was a big man with a black face.
The big man was nearly three meters tall, with tiger eyes, a round face, and a full beard. He had a ferocious look that gave people a mountain-like sense of oppression even before he got close, which was intimidating.
The big man swept his eyes and finally fixed on Xu Tong. Then he stepped forward, knelt down on one knee towards Xu Tong like pushing a jade pillar from a mountain of gold, and apologized with both hands: "The last general, Dou Yong, is the guard of the city gate.
Meet the superior!"
Dou Yong's voice was like thunder. Even though the four of them, Xu Tong, were equally strong, the shock caused pain to their eardrums.
This is the treatment of having a godly position. Although this ghost general is a general guarding the City of Fushou, his strength is terrifying.
Xu Tong felt that the four of them might not be opponents together, but the other party did not have a divine status, and he was one level shorter than him.
"Get up and talk."
Xu Tong, who had also been an official, did not stop when he saw this, and waved to signal the other party to get up.
To be honest, the moment Dou Yong stood up, Xu Tong and the others could still feel the tremendous pressure hanging on them.
"What's the business of coming here?"
Dou Yong's voice was still loud, which made Xu Tong and others uncomfortable.
Just when Xu Tong was about to explain his purpose, the props book prompt sounded first.
"Main mission 1: duty report.
Mission description: Report to the Yincaosi in the City of Fushen.
Task time: 3 hours.
Mission failure: the punishment is extremely severe!!"
Seeing the reminder of the mission, Xu Tong frowned slightly and said to Dou Yong in front of him: "We are going to the Yin Cao Division, please send a ghost to lead the way."
"Follow the edict of the superior!"
Dou Yong stood up, glanced back, and selected one of his guards: "It's up to you, lead the way, there will be no mistakes!"
"yes!"
After the guards agreed, they said to Xu Tong and the others: "Please come with me, sir."
With that said, they walked in front to lead the way. After saying goodbye to the big man in front of them, Xu Tong and the other three followed the guards into the City of Fusi.
As soon as we entered the gate, the surrounding suddenly became lively.
The spacious street is full of pedestrians, wearing all kinds of clothes, some from the Qing Dynasty, some from the Republic of China, and even some from the Ming Dynasty.
Gao Zhuo looked around and saw many modern people.
Ordinarily, these costumes and appearances may not seem weird on their own. After all, they are all changes inherited from the Chinese civilization.
But when they are all put together, it will inevitably give people a sense of confusion in time and space.
"Are these all ghosts?"
Gao Zhuo lowered his voice and spoke in Xu Tong's ear.
His voice was already very low, but the guard walking in front could still hear it clearly. He turned back to Gao Zhuo and said:
"In this city of wasted death, as long as they are not treacherous and evil, and have the ghosts of killing, most of them are here. Most of these people died in vain and were not allowed to be reincarnated. There are also those who died violently, committed suicide, and were released after serving their sentences. Therefore, the ghosts of all dynasties can
meet."
"Oh, that's it. What do you call me?"
Xu Tong and others nodded and asked casually.
"I don't dare. Just call me Yulang."
Yulang said quickly.
"Yulang, what a good name."
Xu Tong praised, and also reminded in the team channel:
"If you have anything to say, try to say it in the team channel. Any soldier here may not be much worse than us."
The four of them followed Yulang all the way, and Xu Tong and the others saw a lot of interesting things on the way.
For example, several people wearing Ming Dynasty costumes teamed up to beat up a ghost wearing Qing Dynasty clothes.
Or maybe a few young people wearing modern clothes gathered together to sell new clothes on the roadside.
In this regard, Yulang explained: "Because there have been many grievances between each other in the past dynasties, this kind of thing happens from time to time, but as long as nothing extraordinary happens, we will turn a blind eye."
Yulang's words are an attempt to avoid the important, and it is more than just a grudge. The feud between the past dynasties is basically the destruction of the country and the family. In addition, in every era, there are always a few awesome bosses who are doing well in the underworld.
The forces are misaligned, and occasionally there will be several large-scale armed fights.
So if you die in vain, the city may not be so peaceful and prosperous.
Fortunately, all the heroic souls who died in battle were taken away by the Five Ghost Emperors early on, otherwise the fight between those heroic souls would be even more uncontrollable.
Xu Tong asked many more questions on the way.
For example, about the underworld.
Yulang knew all these issues and spoke about them.
When it comes to the official organization of Yincao, the leader is naturally the one from Youshan, but that person never cares about these things, and basically nothing big can disturb him.
Next was the Great Emperor Fengdu of Beiyin, who managed almost all appointments and transfers of ghosts and gods.
If Fujun is the chairman, then Emperor Fengdu is the CEO.
Below are five department managers and five ghost emperors, nine in total.
Under the Five Directions Ghost Emperor, there is another place called Luofeng Liutian, but it is a department directly under Emperor Fengdu and has great authority. No one else can control it except Emperor Fengdu.
Further down are the Ten Palaces of Hell, Liu'an Gongcao, the Ten Great Yin Commanders, etc.
These are all official. In addition, there are many ancient gods. These gods have no positions, but their status is no less than that of the Ghost Emperors of the Five Directions.
For example, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, Emperor Zongji, Patriarch of the Sea of Blood, and even the legendary Empress Houtu, etc., are all well-known to people.
As for those that are so ancient that people can't even name them, there are even more.
For example, there are countless Five Heavenly Demon Kings.
This does not include some special forces.
For example, those imperial families have exclusive fiefdoms in the underworld.
In short, the underworld is vast, but even Yulang sometimes cannot tell how many gods are hidden here.
If I really had to explain it in detail, I might not be able to finish it in three days and three nights.
When Xu Tong and the others heard this, their heads were as big as a bucket. They knew that the underworld was huge and there were many big bosses hidden in it. However, after listening carefully, they realized that it was not just the big bosses. This place was a veritable hell circle. Anyone who jumped out could be killed.
It's an ancient god.
"Sure enough, it's better to be alive."
Gao Zhuo patted his chest and sighed.
While they were talking, Xu Tong and the others had already arrived in front of Yincao Si.
According to Yu Lang's introduction, the Yin Cao Division is one of the subordinate departments of the Six Divisions of Gong Cao, which mainly interfaces with the City God.
The task of receiving the Western envoys this time is the responsibility of Yincaosi, so Xu Tong needs to complete the docking task before coming here.
"Sir, this is the Yin Caosi. I have resigned from my position!"
After Yu Lang made a clean introduction, he handed over to Xu Tong, turned around and left. Such a deft style was enough to show that the people under Dou Yong were in strict military discipline.
After Yulang left, Xu Tong motioned to Gao Zhuo and the others to wait for him here, and then strode to the gate of Yincaosi.
Because of the divine position, the little ghost in front of the Yincaosi gate did not dare to make things difficult. After asking about the purpose of his visit, he quickly led Xu Tong in.
As soon as you enter the gate, you will see several desks in the court, full of officials, big and small, busy around.
Although the Yin Caosi only communicates with the City God, every month the City God must report the information from the Yang world and organize it to the Yin Caosi.
Speaking of which, Yincaosi is more like an intelligence agency targeting the underworld.
"welcome."
At this time, a Yin official wearing a black gauze on his head and an ashen complexion came out from behind.
This Yin official is Yang Yu, the head of the Yin Cao Division. Yang Yu, like Xu Tong, also enjoys a minor divine position and is considered a high-ranking official in the Yin Cao. Strictly speaking, Xu Tong is still his subordinate.
Well... at least for now.
However, Yang Yu was particularly enthusiastic about Xu Tong's arrival and cordially took Xu Tong's arm and sat down in the back hall.
"Look at the tea!"
Not long after, two cups of tea were served.
Xu Tong picked up the tea and took a sip. He felt that the tea tasted very astringent. As soon as he tasted it, he knew it was not a good tea.
However, Yang Yu drank with gusto. Yang Yu took two sips and raised his eyebrows slightly: "This time, the Western mission named Brother Xu to be the reception envoy. The above said the same thing. The Western hell and our place have always been on the same page.
, this time at the Shangsi Festival, they suddenly have to come to pay homage to the Lord, it is of great importance, and they still need to explain a few things to Brother Xu."
The few kiddies serving on the side couldn't help but murmur in their hearts when they heard Yang say "brother" on the left and "brother on the right".
I thought to myself: "When has my lord ever been so polite to a subordinate??"
"My lord, please give me your instructions."
Xu Tong didn't know Yang Yu's personality, but he could tell by looking at the expressions of the little ghosts serving around him. The master in front of him was probably not a good person. He was polite on the surface, but he couldn't help but start to feel wary in his heart.
"It's actually very simple. You just need to pay close attention to whether the Western envoys have contact with people from the underworld this time. Of course, if you hear something or see something, you just need to record it."
Xu Tong understood immediately when he heard this, and couldn't help secretly guessing that this Yincaosi was indeed the intelligence agency of Hades. It was cooperating with him in this job, and he also needed to monitor whether anyone in Hades had any business collusion with the West.
Seeing Xu Tong's silence, Yang Yu immediately changed his words: "Of course, I won't make it difficult for Brother Xu. Just do it with confidence and boldness. If something goes wrong, I will work with you to make it happen."
From now on, I will definitely have the benefit of my brothers."
"fart!"
Xu Tong smiled disdainfully in his heart. This kind of painting of pie was too vulgar.
I had listened to Yulang's introduction along the way, and I knew that the vastness of the underworld hid many ancient gods, as well as major clan forces. The level of complexity was far worse than in reality.
Liu'an Gong Cao is nothing. If he is really involved in collusion with the West, he probably wouldn't dare to mess with it easily. This man named Yang is clearly bullying his outsiders and wants to use him as a gun.
Xu Tong understood in his heart, but he still used the necessary skills in the workplace and nodded repeatedly in agreement. You are the leader anyway, and whatever you say in front of you is right. As for how to do it, that is another matter.
Seeing Xu Tong nodding his head repeatedly, Yang Yu took out a token and handed it to Xu Tong: "This is a customs clearance order. You can take this with you to wait for the Western envoy outside the Forest of No Return. Remember, you must not
When you enter the Forest of No Return, I have sent someone to wait outside to guide you along the way and help you with reception arrangements."
After Xu Tong took the token, he received a task prompt from the prop book, reminding him that the main task 1 was completed.
Seeing Yang Yu serving tea to see the guests off, Xu Tong consciously stood up and left.
As soon as Xu Tong left, several flattering brats immediately rushed up to squeeze Yang Yu's shoulders and beat his legs. One of the brats said cautiously: "Why should you be so polite, sir? He is an ordinary person. All you have to do is give orders, and I don't dare to forgive him."
Violation."
Hearing this, Yang Yu poured the tea on the kid's face, and his blue face sank: "Idiot, do you think there is no backstory behind this person? Before this person came, Luofu Mountain sent a message, asking me to take care of him carefully.
How can a person who even the Ghost Emperor recognizes be an ordinary person?"
"Yes Yes Yes."
The kid was too frightened to say anything, so he quickly took the tea cup and replaced it with a cup of high-quality new tea.
Yang Yu tasted it for a few moments, and then changed his voice: "But I'm not afraid even if he has any relationship with the man from Luofu Mountain. I got the news that Luo Feng seems to have some kind of deal with the West for six days, and let this kid go find out the truth. Let's
This is asking for directions, let’s see the depth.”
"My lord is wise..." Immediately, all the brats started flattering me one after another.
At the same time, Xu Tong had already walked out of the gate of Yincaosi.
"Tou, how's it going?"
Gao Zhuo came up and asked.
"Hey, someone wants to use us as gunmen, but it's a pity that my gun may not be pierced outside." Xu Tong smiled coldly, and when he was about to explain to them, he suddenly heard a familiar laughter.
"Hey, it's you."
The familiar silly laughter came, making Xu Tong's eyes suddenly widen. He looked back. When he saw the figure standing outside the gate, Xu Tong's eyes instantly became moist...
