When this person arrived here, a pair of eyes immediately fell on the face of the city lord of the Vain Death City, and then he smiled and said, "Brother Zhu, I haven't seen you for many years, don't come to harm!" ”

Brother Zhu? Could it be that the surname of the city lord of this dead city is Zhu? How did he get acquainted with the man in front of him?

The city lord of the city of vain death stared at the leopard-headed man, and then sneered and said, "I didn't expect the old man of Hades to send you all, it seems that he still wants to take the cold jade spirit for himself, right?" ”

The leopard-headed man laughed and said, "The cold jade spirit is originally a thing of the capital, and His Highness has nothing to blame. It's just that Brother Zhu, you are a thief who died in vain, and you even want to get this treasure. Isn't it a bit self-sufficient? ”

When the city lord of the Vain Death City heard this, he immediately became furious and said: "Zhong Kui, you and I were originally friends who are not rebellious, but now that we have different positions, why should you be sarcastic about me." Am I really afraid of you, afraid of you, the Holy Ghost Hunter? ”

Tong Yan and Qing Ming were shocked when they heard this. I really didn't expect that the man with a leopard head and eyes in front of me turned out to be the famous Zhong Kui!

Who is Zhong Kui? This man was born with an iron face and sideburns, and his appearance was strange; However, he is a talented, full-fledged and wealthy person, who is rich in learning and five cars, and talented in eight buckets.

There is a record of him in ancient books, he was originally a native of Zhongnan, Shaanxi, and he was talented when he was young. During the Tang Wude period, he went to the capital to take the exam, but he was defeated because of his ugly appearance, and he was angry and hit the palace steps. When the emperor heard this, he gave him a red robe for burial. In the Tianbao years, it is said that after Li Longji, the emperor of the Tang Ming Dynasty, lectured on martial arts in Lintong Lishan, he occasionally suffered from spleen disease, which could not be cured for a long time, and he dreamed of a great man with a strange appearance one night, caught a small ghost, gouged out his eyeballs, and ate him. The Great Han claimed that he was "a Jinshi who failed to pass the palace test, Zhong Kui", and the emperor woke up from a dream and immediately recovered from his illness. So, he ordered Wu Daozi to make a picture of Zhong Kui's ghost hunting scene in his dream and hang it in the palace to ward off evil spirits and suppress demons.

In the world, the worship of Zhong Kui has existed since ancient times, and the world knows that he has the ability to hunt ghosts and subdue demons, and his portrait has the ability to ward off evil spirits and eliminate disasters.

Today, I am fortunate to see the legendary characters in this bloody world, how can Tong Yan and Qing Ming not be surprised, how can they not be surprised?

Zhong Kui glanced at the city lord of the Vain Death City, and then chuckled and said, "Brother Zhu, I know that you have good skills, but my duty is not to let you take a step forward today." Don't embarrass me, get out of here. Han Yuling, you can't get it. ”

Hearing this, the city lord of the Vain Death City snorted coldly and said, "Zhong Kui, let me tell you, I am going to make a decision on this cold jade spirit." If you dare to stop me, they will be your fate! As soon as the words fell, his raised hands clenched suddenly, only to hear a few ......screams of "ahhhhh was crushed by him like this.

Zhong Kui looked at it, and immediately said angrily: "Zhu Cang, you ate people and did evil during your lifetime, but I didn't expect you to be so cruel when you turned into a ghost after death." How can I tolerate you when you slay me in front of me today? Die quickly! ”

As soon as the words fell, he immediately pulled out the seven-star sword on his waist.

Seeing this, the city lord of the city of vain death grabbed the void, and a big knife appeared directly in his hand.

The two looked at each other, and immediately fought fiercely together.

"Zhu Cang? Could it be that the lord of this vain city is the notorious ogre king Zhu Cang in the late Sui and early Tang Dynasties? Tong Yan thought in his heart, and a nameless fire unconsciously surged into his heart.

Who is Zhu Cang? Those who know something about the history of the Sui and Tang dynasties will definitely have heard of it.

He was a native of Bozhou (now Bozhou, Anhui), and was a warlord in the late Sui and early Tang dynasties. When Zhu Cang was young, he served as a county official, and later took advantage of the chaos to cause trouble, calling himself the king of Garuda, who was very brutal, and the city he attacked was mostly robbed, and even people were not spared, and he was a famous man-eating demon king. In the fourth year of Wude, he was captured by Li Shimin and killed in Luoyang. When he was beheaded, the onlookers rushed to throw stones at his body.

In the first month of the second year of Wude, when Zhu Cang had 200,000 troops, plundered between the Han River and the Huai River, and the migration of the troops was irregular. There was also no focus on agriculture, so there were ******, the bones of people who died of starvation piled up, and there was cannibalism. Zhu Cang's army had nothing to plunder, and there was a shortage of food in the army, so Zhu Cang asked the soldiers to cook women and children to eat, and said to his subordinates: "There is no better food than human flesh, as long as there are people in other towns, why worry about starvation!" At that time, the Sui Dynasty's writings Zuolang Lu Congdian and Yan Zhitui's son Tongshi Sheren Yan Chuchu all lived in Nanyang because of the demotion of officials. At first, Zhu Cang invited them to be his guests, but when Zhu Cang lacked food, he ate both of them. Zhu Cang also requisitioned the women and children of each castle to supply the army as military rations, and the castles betrayed him one after another.

It can be said that Zhu Cang can be described as a beast with a human face and a beast's heart, and what he does is simply outrageous.

However, what Tong Yan didn't expect was that it was such a man-eating demon king, who became the lord of this vain city after his death, and he even became the righteous son of this beast that was inferior to beasts.

Tong Yan gritted his teeth fiercely, then turned his head to Qing Ming and said, "Brother Qing, let's go save people, let them fight slowly!" ”

Hearing this, Qing Ming said puzzledly: "Aren't we going to help?" ”

Tong Yan sneered and said, "Such a thief, how can you need our help, go!" ”

With that, he turned and strode forward. Seeing this, Qing Ming stopped talking nonsense and hurriedly followed.

The area of this bloody realm is too large, and there are too many ghosts in it. If you want to find three ordinary ghosts here, you can imagine how difficult it is.

However, Tong Yan had no other choice but to look for them one by one from the faces of these ghosts. Time passed little by little, and Tong Yan couldn't remember how many ghosts he had found, and he couldn't remember how far he had gone.

And at this moment, a huge cave finally appeared in front of him and Qing Ming.

This cave is twenty or thirty meters high and more than ten meters wide, and it is full of traces left by sharp blades, which must have been dug out by man.

At this moment, a ghost walked into it with a heterochromatic stone that had been quarried from elsewhere, and a ghost could be seen coming out of it with his empty hands.

Qing Ming stared at the cave, and then asked Tong Yan, "Little Tong, do you think this cave entrance will be the passage that connects to the Netherworld Blood Sea?" ”

Hearing this, Tong Yan frowned slightly and said: "It is estimated that ** is not far from ten, and I can't find my parents and sister anywhere else, maybe they are in this hole." Brother Qing, let's go in and have a look! ”

The two looked at each other, and immediately raised their legs and walked towards the entrance of the cave.

Where does this cave lead? What are these ghosts doing in and out? Stay tuned!
