The hand bones of the God of Death in the Tang Territory were hidden very secretly. Bai Yuantang only knew that the first generation lord of the Tang Territory had obtained the hand bones, but he didn't know where they were placed. He couldn't predict them even with a thought, so he just
You can rely on Bai Xiaowen to find it yourself.
Bai Xiaowen briefly inquired about the forbidden areas in the Tang Dynasty. Soon, he got clues from the mouths of the former palace eunuchs of the Tang Dynasty.
According to eunuchs, there is a mysterious "underground palace" underground in Chang'an City.
This underground palace is very secretive and does not allow any unrelated personnel to set foot in it. Li Weichen also issued a strict order to seal it.
The bodies of criminals executed by the Tang Dynasty were secretly transported to the underground palace, and it was not known what they were used for.
If the Tang Dynasty had not been corrupted and people with knowledge of the matter were not strict, even the eunuchs in the imperial palace would not have known about the existence of the underground palace.
Now that Bai Xiaowen has become the new master, the eunuchs naturally take the initiative to inform him in order to achieve meritorious service.
However, they only knew that the underground palace existed. As for where the entrance was, they couldn't tell clearly. They only knew some possible locations.
Bai Xiaowen mobilized the Five Elements Banner warriors to search for it based on the clues provided by the eunuchs.
During this period, Li Shuyi and Qiao Rui had already arrived via the teleportation gate from White Phoenix City. The original territory teleportation gate of Datang Territory had lost the ability to teleport to the outside world and could only be used as an ordinary teleportation point within the White Phoenix Territory.
, currently only connected to White Phoenix City.
The original territorial management organization of Chang'an City was simply reorganized by Bai Xiaowen. A group of people who had connections with Li Weichen and had gone through the back door were replaced. At the same time, some officials who were capable but had no background were promoted on the spot.
The territory itself does not need many managers, because there are only 8,000 citizens in total, 5,000 of which are slaves, which is basically the same as a village. This further illustrates the ridiculousness of Li Weichen becoming emperor behind closed doors.
In fact, those evolvers who have left one after another do not mean that they have any mental obsessions and cannot tolerate the leader's dream of being emperor. If the territory is really strong and prosperous, and if it is the only one in the Star Alliance, it is not a big deal to become emperor.
However, Li Weichen's forced proclaiming of emperor and the weak status of the territory made those heroic evolvers feel that there was no future, so they ran away.
Bai Xiaowen is equivalent to replacing a group of village cadres, and of course it will not cause any waves.
At the same time, slaves in the mines in various parts of the Tang Dynasty were also brought to Chang'an City, where the new department issued territorial citizenship certificates and allocated fields.
Since Bai Xiaowen promised that he would not touch the property of Chang'an City residents, including the fields.
Therefore, the land that can be allocated to these former slaves is all uncultivated wasteland territory. There is nothing else, but there is a lot of wasteland, but it is vast and sparsely populated.
In view of the fact that these slaves were relatively numb and had no ability to survive independently for the time being, Bai Xiaowen ordered the officials of Chang'an City to set up twelve farming camps and turn the former slaves into farming soldiers for management. While doing farming work, they also learned skills.
After meeting the acceptance conditions, the field soldiers can apply to leave the military and become completely free citizens.
It took two days for the Five Elements Flag warriors to finally find the entrance to the "underground palace" in the inner garden of the palace.
Bai Xiaowen and a few friends entered the underground palace.
"Wow, there is such a big underground cave under Chang'an City! If it were dug manually, how much manpower would be needed?" Li Shuyi exclaimed.
"This can't be called an underground cave. It's an underground palace." Bai Xiaowen always felt that Li Shuyi's wording was too low. "It should be an existing natural cave that was renovated and expanded."
The group of people walked along the corridor and entered the underground palace. The further they walked inside, the lower the temperature became.
"It feels like a big mausoleum." Li Shuyi said.
Qiao Rui nodded slightly: "It seems that the underground palace may very well store the hand bones of the God of Death."
When we reached the end of the corridor, the front suddenly became clear.
"Wow"
Bai Xiaowen and his friends were all shocked.
Ahead is the main hall of the underground palace, with bronze animal horn lamps carved on the four walls, emitting a cold light.
With the help of lights, you can see that inside the main hall is a hill of bones.
There are magical lights at the four corners of the bone mound, flowing along complicated and strange lines. On top of the bone mound, there is an altar.
All the magic lines are gathered on the altar.
In the center of the altar, a hand bone is suspended.
"Do you feel that the concentration of spiritual energy here is very strong?" Qiao Rui said.
Bai Xiaowen nodded: "According to the memory fragments of Li Feng and others, the Tang Dynasty leader set up a spiritual energy gathering array in Chang'an City. It seems that this underground palace's magic array is it. However, its purpose seems to be not only to gather spiritual energy.
Look over there."
Everyone followed Bai Xiaowen's fingers and looked around the bone mound, and there were three black shadows surrounded by black energy.
Obviously, these are three undead soul creatures. Judging from the fluctuations in spiritual power, they are about the strength of super elite evolvers.
"Underworld Demon Army!" Li Shuyi shouted.
The three Hell Demon Army soldiers showed no reaction.
The magic light of the bone mound array flows slowly, and at the end of the lines, there is another group of black mist rolling, and bunches of spiritual power are slowly gathering towards the black mist.
"This Bone Mound Array should be the place where the Tang Dynasty produced the Underworld Demon Army."
Bai Xiaowen said, "As for the spiritual power aggregation effect, it should be just an incidental product."
Cecilia suddenly said: "No wonder there are so many soldiers of the Underworld Army under the Tang Dynasty."
Previously, Bai Xiaowen destroyed 200 Nether Demon Army at the Shao location. Later, when the Tang Dynasty attacked the White Phoenix Territory, he sent another 300, so there were 500 Nether Demon Army, which far exceeded the number of other conventional arms of the Tang Dynasty.
.
It turns out that the Tang Territory can produce soldiers of the Underworld Demon Army.
The group of people waited for a long time, but the black mist did not take shape further, and the formation of new Dark Demon Army soldiers seemed to have stagnated.
Bai Xiaowen suddenly said: "No need to wait. It should not be produced."
All four people looked at him.
Bai Xiaowen explained: "Conservation of energy and equivalent exchange are unbreakable truths. In my opinion, this bone mound formation is equivalent to a processing assembly line. Raw materials need to be put in to produce finished products. Without an energy source,
It is impossible to create new soldiers of the Underworld Demon Army."
"Energy source? Isn't this magic array extracted from the energy of the hand bones of the God of Death?" Li Shuyi is a newbie in the array.
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said: "The hand bone of the God of Death is just the most important core machine in the assembly line, not an energy source. If the hand bones were an energy source, they would have been drained long ago. According to my speculation, the raw material should be some kind of special
Energy, such as soul, resentment, etc. Let me give it a try."
Bai Xiaowen put on the Death Face, waved his hand and sprayed out a ball of soul essence, which was a pure gray mist, about 100 points.
Unexpectedly, the Bone Mound Array had no intention of swallowing the soul essence. Obviously, this was not a suitable raw material.
