Chapter 142 Feng Shui Seventh Day Master Huairou

Inside the box are three dried human skins!

——Complete human skin, some yellowed and blackened, with dry and curled edges, the texture of the skin is still clearly identifiable.

Three pieces of human skin were stacked side by side in the box, the head was pressed against the chest and the legs, the facial features were distorted, the eye sockets were hollow and black, and the mouth was opened wide, which seemed to be in great pain.

It stinks of decay.

Lin Hong's heart skipped a beat, and he closed the box.

"bump"!

This sound is even louder than the sound of smashing the lock...

"vomit!"

Duan Yu's face was pale, and he had already started to retch.

"Why are you two arguing so early in the morning! Will you die if you sleep too long?" Yu Tian also strode over like a shooting star, twisting his willow-leaf eyebrows, furious.

Lin Hong was speechless, he pointed to the box.

Yu Tian also glared at him, "I want to see what scares people like this!"

She opened the box.

Lin Hong and Duan Yu stared at her nervously.

"That's it?" Yu Tian also raised his eyebrows.

Lin Hong:.

Duan Yu:? ?

Yu Tian also said that he has been hanging the pot to help the world for many years, and it is no surprise that he is an "evil doctor".

She closed the box, "There is a kind of torture that is skinning. A hole is cut in the skin on the top of the condemned prisoner's head, and mercury is poured into it. The mercury is heavy and will fall all the way, like a liquid knife, separating the skin and flesh. In the end, the human skin is gone." It was completely stripped off.

A person who has been skinned will not die on the spot. Flesh and blood without skin will not be able to resist external dirt, and if it is soaked by mercury, this person's flesh and blood will be infected, fester, and suppurate, and he will die in severe pain. "

extremely cruel.

"Ah! It's so scary!" Duan Yu, who had just stopped, started howling again, accompanied by retching.

Lin Hong looked at the box and thought——

Exactly three human skins.

He thought of the three bloody skinless ghosts that had come the first night.

This should be their skin... Although the peeled skin was spread out and the facial features were a little distorted, Lin Hong could still tell that it was a boy, a woman, and an old woman—it was no wonder that the third ghost moved slowly. is an old man.

fit their characteristics.

Who are these three people?What crime should be punished with such cruel punishment?

What is the relationship between what Wan Guchuan said and these three human skins?

This ghost recipe belongs to Wu Niu. Are these three people related to Wu Niu?Could it be that there are secrets?

Moreover, why are these three human skins hidden so deep?

Lin Hong was thinking, if it weren't for Wan Guchuan, they might never have found these three human skins anyway.

"What do you want to do with these human skins?" Yu Tian also saw that Lin Hong was thinking, and asked him.

Lin Hong glanced at her upon hearing the sound, "Give them back the human skin."

"The three skinless ghosts?" Duan Yu stood far away, his legs were so weak that he could only support the cabinet, "Why do you pay them back?"

Lin Hong said: "Those three ghosts dare not come, let's put the human skin outside tonight and let them pick it up."

Duan Yu had a headache, "Okay..."

"If it's a matter of night, what do you do during the day? What's next?" Yu Tian also moved her arm, and the bone made a "click".

"Look for Lin Hong." Lin Hong said.

Now it is necessary to find out what role Lin Hong plays in this story, whether she sings a black face or a bad face, and what her purpose is.

The three packed up and got ready to go out.

At this time, the sky is getting bright, the dwarf stars have not yet dissipated, the morning light is slightly dewed at the handover of the sky and the earth, and the golden light that explodes is coloring the whole sky little by little.

Lin Hong pushed open the door, and the early morning winter wind came over his face. It was so cold that he raised the collar of his cloak with his slender hands. At the same time, he saw the slender black figure in the courtyard.

Dai Xuchen saw him going out and walked towards him.

Yu Tianyi and Duan Yu, who were following Lin Hong, saw that they were approaching a formidable enemy, and remembered their previous guesses.

It's still early, the emperor's early court has not yet started, why send him here?

"General Dai, it's so early." Lin Hong greeted him with a smile.

Dai Xuchen stopped under the steps, knelt down on one knee, nodded to Lin Hong, and saluted, "See my king."

Duan Yu:.

Yutian also:.

Lin Hong:?

No.

what?

king?

"Get up first." Lin Hong's mind was blank.

"Yes." Dai Xuchen stood up.

"What does General Dai mean?" Lin Hong really didn't understand.

Why did this general loyal to Wu Niu suddenly call him "king"?Isn't this afraid of beheading?

"The humble minister came to greet him." Dai Xuchen looked at him three steps lower than him, with a handsome face, and a trace of coldness and sternness that did not belong to the world in his originally gentle eyes.

Black mist began to surround him!

The black mist enveloped his tall figure, outlining the shoulder armor, breastplate and combat boots on his body...

"Shut up!"

A mighty black steed raised its front hooves from the black mist beside Dai Xuchen and let out a long hiss, and its breath was also filled with black mist.

"Yin... Yin soldiers!!" Duan Yu called out.

Yu Tian also pulled Lin Hong back.

The black mist continued to spread out, swallowing up the vast courtyard bit by bit.

Wherever the black mist went, tall ghosts in iron armor and black horses with gleaming eyes gradually formed.

The war horse neighed, and the iron armor and weapons "clanked".

"Tap Tat Tat!" There was a clatter of horseshoes.

The black mist covered the sky, almost covering the faint morning light in the sky.

Countless pairs of cold eyes looked at them in a steaming black mist.

The black mist is still spreading, and the number of Yin soldiers is still increasing.

Ups and downs, black and white.

The three of them had already retreated into the house, and looking out through the door, they could see billowing black mist everywhere.

Dai Xuchen is the general of Yin soldiers?

Lin Hong couldn't get back to his senses.

That's right, if Wu Niu overthrew the Zhou Dynasty and established the Yue Dynasty with the power of Yin soldiers, where are the Yin soldiers in the prosperous heaven now?

——Beside the emperor, appearing in human form.

——His army is still Yin soldiers.

"Qiang! Qiang!"

Hundreds of thousands of Yin soldiers, in a dense mass, knelt down in the direction of Lin Hong, causing a loud noise of armor colliding.

The three steps are to be rushed to the sky by them. They are willing to be short and bow their heads, as if standing there is the nine-day god they worship.

They will sacrifice their flesh and blood and their most ardent beliefs.

"My king's destiny!"

The deep and high-pitched shouts shook the sky, and the roaring wind rushed to the face!

Lin Hong's ears rang from the shock.

"What is my king's order?" In the black fog, Dai Xuchen knelt on one knee and looked up at Lin Hong. His handsome face was half hidden in the black fog, with a devout expression, "Do you want to destroy this dynasty?"

Lin Hong was going to be dazzled by his mouthful of "king", "Stop!"

When he gave an order, the black mist did not spread as if it had solidified, and even the neighing of the horses stopped. Hundreds of thousands of Yin soldiers still knelt on the ground with their helmeted heads hanging down.

"...Get up." Lin Hong said.

"Qiang! Qiang!"

Hundreds of thousands of Yin soldiers got up, and there was another crisp sound of iron armor.

"My king is as lucky as the sky!"

The shouts shook the entire courtyard.

After surrendering, the meaning is clear.

"Calm down first, take these back first." Lin Hong was comforting Dai Xuchen, he was very worried that the sound of soldiers and horses would spread out and alarm others.

"Yes." Sure enough, Dai Xuchen began to retract the black mist little by little, and the soldiers and horses gradually melted into the black mist.

The black mist that covered the entire courtyard slowly rushed towards him and fell into his body.

Lin Hong was a little confused.

Even if Dai Xuchen is a general of Yin soldiers, he should be loyal to Wu Niu who is sitting on the dragon chair. How could he suddenly obey him?

Could it be because of the Jade Tiger Talisman?

Lin Hong's fingers reached into his pocket, and his fingertips touched the cold and moist Jade Tiger Talisman.

However, this Jade Tiger Talisman did not work well yesterday!

He suddenly remembered what Wu Niu said yesterday, "It's only one day away."

The bad day happened to be today.

Does this mean that the Jade Tiger Talisman had no effect yesterday because the time had not come yet, but today it is of great use?

But what's so special about today?

The seventh day of Father Wu's burial?

Is it because of Feng Shui or something else?

Moreover, in this world, one is Wu Niu who has become the emperor, and the other is Wu Niu who is still waiting for Yin soldiers. If there are two Wu Niu, will there be two groups of Yin soldiers?

Yesterday's yin soldiers were newborn yin soldiers, but Dai Xuchen in front of him is a yin soldier who has followed the emperor, and the Jade Tiger Talisman he took should also be aimed at the newborn yin soldiers.

So there is only one Yin soldier?Or--

My Jade Tiger Talisman was snatched from Wu Niu, so Wu Niu's Yin soldiers became my own?

Lin Hong is not quite sure.

On that side, the spacious courtyard became empty again, only Dai Xuchen was left.

He is still tall and handsome, and his expression has returned to the original sunshine and gentleness, but he still calls Lin Hong: "My king."

"What's the trouble..." Yu Tian was also confused.

Duan Yu was even more confused.

"My lord, what orders do you have next? I will surely stand on the saddle." Dai Xuchen bowed.

"Hold the soldiers for now." Inexplicably picked up hundreds of thousands of Yin soldiers to give orders, but Lin Hong was the calmest of the three.

"Yes."

"Stop 'yes'!" Oh, Lin Hong was just pretending to be calm.

"Yes."

"..."

Lin Hong doesn't doubt the surrender of the Yin soldiers now, and this group of ghosts has no reason to be scheming.

"General Dai, why don't you tell me what you know?" Lin Hong felt that it would be more appropriate to ask the Lord directly.

"Yes." Dai Xuchen respectfully.

"We are the army of King Huairou." Dai Xuchen said.

King Huairou?

"King Huairou of Mo Country?" Lin Hong couldn't believe it.

"Exactly." Dai Xuchen said.

King Huairou of the Mexican Country!

The Yin soldiers are actually the army of King Huairou!

This can be traced back to before the Zhou Dynasty, nearly 500 years—the period when the Five Kingdoms struggled for hegemony.

It is rumored that in that era, the world was like purgatory, the world was blood-red, and wars were raging everywhere. Everyone in the world was a warrior, and fighting was the only way to survive. Even three-year-old children had to wear swords.

And no matter who King Huairou is, he is by no means as "soft" as his name.

He is a ghost, a demon, the King of Hades, the God of War, and the most bloodthirsty legend in history!

He leads the army to sweep across the world, and it doesn't matter if it is my friend who kills him!Regardless of old and weak women and children.

His war horse was covered with heads, and his feet were stepping on the road washed by blood.

As tyrannical as he is, as warlike as he is, he was the first to be defeated in the Five Kingdoms struggle for hegemony.

Encircled and suppressed by the armies of the four countries, thousands of arrows pierced through the heart, cut to pieces on the battlefield, trampled by thousands of horses, and chopped into flesh!

And his army was doomed to a bad end.

Killing innocents and plundering thousands of people, King Huairou's army was full of evil spirits, and became ghost soldiers after death. Lin Hong thought it was too reasonable.

He looked at Dai Xuchen, who was gentle and full of vigor, and he couldn't connect this person with the rumored murderous deeds done by King Huairou's army.

"Our evil spirit is too strong. After death, the soul cannot rest in peace. It is attached to the jade tiger charm of King Huairou's yin and yang." Dai Xuchen said.

He must have said that it was the Jade Tiger Talisman that Lin Hong got.

Yin and Yang intersect - it should be said that there are two, and one is still in Lin Hong's hand.

Dai Xuchen's voice was gentle and deep, telling an old story, "In order to suppress the evil spirit, the Jade Tiger Talisman was buried in the dragon's cave in Longmai Mountain. This place is full of energy and can seal our evil spirit. Every resentful soul lives in the bamboo joints. Take care of yourself."

Only anger can save death.

"But seven days ago, the Jade Tiger Talisman disappeared, and we smelled the breath of death and blood." Dai Xuchen's gentle eyes sank, as if recalling the smell, which made a trace of coldness appear in his eyes, "The coffin is sealed The vitality of the dragon's lair exudes the breath of death, if we cannot touch the vitality, and we are nourished by its blood energy for seven days, we will wake up again and become ghosts who have lost their sanity and serve him."

Therefore, the Yin soldiers were in that bamboo forest from the beginning, and the resentful souls rested in every bamboo joint, sleeping in the dragon's lair together with the jade tiger charm.

Lin Hong somehow found the Jade Tiger Talisman, saw through the feng shui pattern of this place, and asked Wu Niu to bury his father there, occupy Duanlong's cave, and send death and blood to the Yin soldiers who had already calmed down, so that the blood in their bodies was about to move. The murderous aura began to recover again.

seven days.When the vitality is completely exhausted, and death soaks every bamboo joint and covers every inch of life, the Yin soldiers will fully wake up, and they will step on the steed to serve the master of blood—Wu Niu, who is connected with Wu's father's blood.

The army of King Huairou, the god of war, will fight fiercely for him and conquer the world for him.

"But now it's a failure. Before the seven days were over, my king removed the coffin and let go of his anger. Saving me was like fire and water—his purpose was not achieved, and we were not controlled by him. Now that we are fully awake, we naturally have to obey The holder of the Jade Tiger Talisman." Dai Xuchen nodded towards Lin Hong, "My king."

"..." Lin Hong felt that he had made a big deal by mistake.

"What about within seven days?" Lin Hong raised his eyebrows, "There will also be invisible soldiers and horses within seven days, even helping Wu Niu to scare the villagers, and when the bamboo knots exploded, you also obeyed his orders to kill us , why not?"

Dai Xuchen shook his head, "In seven days, our minds will not be clear, and we will wake up little by little under the nourishment of death energy. We will wake up once a day when the death energy is at its strongest. The time is uncertain, and the duration of maintenance is uncertain. It is just a coincidence to help him deter the villagers. That's all. As for helping him to kill you—at that time, life and death were stirred together, and it was a mess, and the bamboo joints were split, and we broke free. We were unconscious at the time, my king, how offended you are." He bowed his head and apologized deeply.

Lin Hong understood that Wu Niu couldn't control these Yin soldiers after seven days of dissatisfaction, so he was forced to give him the Jade Tiger Talisman that day.

Yesterday, Yin Bingfang was released from the bamboo joints. At that time, they were out of control because of anger and death, so the Jade Tiger Talisman was useless, and they didn't want to kill them because of Wu Niu's advice, it was just a bloodthirsty instinct.

Everything is just a coincidence.

Lin Hong is still unclear: "In this way, there is no saying once every seven days that Feng Shui is destroyed. Why did you not wake up yesterday, but today you said that you will be loyal to me when you wake up?"

"Without this feng shui, we can't be sure when we will be fully awake. We have been asleep for too many years... The person next to you at that time was too powerful, and the evil spirit swept through us. The violence awakened our sanity." Dai Xuchen seemed a little scared.

Yesterday Wan Guchuan crushed the Yin soldiers and awakened their minds, allowing them to wake up completely today and obey the Jade Tiger Talisman.

"So, you've been helping us since yesterday?" Lin Hong understood, and Yu Tian was right, Dai Xuchen was helping them.

"Yes." Dai Xuchen explained, "But it's not complete. I just vaguely feel that I should help you. I wake up today, and I'm here to express my sincerity."

Lin Hong understood.

If the feng shui is completed in the seventh day, the Yin soldiers will no longer be affected by the Huairou Wang Yuhu Talisman, and will be completely loyal to Wu Niu, Wu Niu's blood relative.

Feng Shui failed, Yin soldiers were released, and they had to wait for them to wake up, and the power of this violence to wake them up came from Wan Guchuan.At this time, they will only obey the orders of the person who holds the Jade Tiger Talisman.

Lin Hong was thinking, Wu Niu who was the emperor and Wu Niu who was in the mountains—these two timelines seem to be going on at the same time, but they are actually connected from beginning to end: Wu Niu rebelled to become emperor, and the emperor found out that someone was going to rebel .

Wu Niu became the emperor, which means that the Yin soldiers surrendered, but he took away the wild Wu Niu—that is, the jade tiger charm of Wu Niu before he became the emperor. Dai Xuchen, who should have surrendered to the emperor Wu Niu, now turned to him up.

——So the two events also have a partial sequence relationship in time.

Lin Hong asked Dai Xuchen, "How much do you know about Wu Niu?"

"Not much. All I know is that he buried the coffin." Dai Xuchen said.

He can only see a corner of the story from the perspective of the Yin soldier.

Lin Hong changed the question, "Do you know Lin Hong?"

Dai Xuchen shook his head lightly.

Yin soldiers don't know Lin Hong?

Where does Lin Hong exist?

He seems to be the mastermind of this drama. He pointed Wu Niu, set up a Feng Shui bureau, and released the Yin soldiers from thousands of years ago, but he did not show himself in front of the Yin soldiers.

He pulls the string behind his back and dances with the puppet.

But what was he doing in Yongsui Mountain that day?What is his intention?What are you plotting?Why did he leave another Tiger Talisman?

Speaking of another Jade Tiger Talisman——

"Can the two Jade Tiger Talismans of King Huairou's yin and yang be able to command Yin soldiers?" Lin Hong asked.

"Yes."

If so, what if Lin Hong took his Jade Tiger Talisman and caused the Yin soldiers to turn against him again?

Lin Hong asked: "If the orders of the two people conflict, what should you do?"

Dai Xuchen replied: "Surrender to strength."

This... is a bit mysterious.

"How to judge?" Lin Hong asked.

Dai Xuchen said: "The Yin soldiers will know, my king."

It's like saying nothing.

Now I can't figure out Lin Hong's details, so I can only take one step at a time.

Lin Hong was still very curious about one thing: "So you knew from the beginning that I was not the Lin Hong the emperor was looking for?"

Dai Xuchen shook his head, "I didn't know at first."

"At that time, the emperor only said 'beautiful appearance, the appearance of heaven and man, you can know it at the first sight', so I will know it at the first sight." Dai Xuchen added.

"...But you also saw Lin Hong that day." Lin Hong said.

Zhen Linhong looks more like a non-human being.

"But even if I meet the real Lin Hong next day, I still feel that he is not as good as you. You..." Dai Xuchen's voice stopped abruptly, and he looked behind Lin Hong with some trepidation.

Lin Hong felt that his expression was weird, and followed his gaze to look behind him—it was empty and there was no one there.

Can Dai Xuchen see Wan Guchuan?Why did Wan Guchuan scare him?

"Go ahead." Lin Hong turned to Dai Xuchen and said.

Dai Xuchen didn't dare continue to praise Lin Hong, and calmly said: "I didn't know until later that Lin Hong should be the Feng Shui master the emperor is looking for."

"Well, but it's not important anymore, we still have to find him now." Lin Hong said.

Dai Xuchen: "Yes."
