God and mystery

Chapter 398
He never imagined that in this remote Far Eastern vassal state, he could actually see the Jingling Palace, which has a significant relationship with Song Ting.Ji Xiang came to the front of the hall as a shadow god, when there was a sound of pushing the door behind him.

Ji Xiang never evaded, and maintained his shadowy appearance. In this state, ordinary people would never be able to find him.

If it is discovered, it means that the comer is not simple, and it is just time to press him.

creak.

The door opened, and it was the North Korean king who appeared here.

King Lee Chan of Joseon.

The bright red Dagon dragon robe symbolizes that it is one level lower than the bright yellow Dagon dragon robe, but higher than the status of those ministers. The monarch of a vassal state was the prince's etiquette system in the Ming Dynasty.

It's just that the bright red color faded the moment he stepped into the Jingling Hall, and the dragon pattern on it seemed to come alive, but it became a little gloomy.Even his face was extremely thin and yellow, and his eyes were staring straight at the gate of Jingling Hall.

Ji Xiang pondered.

Was this king so thin before?
The war has been going on for seven years. For this king, there is no part of his country that is not involved in the war. It is normal to be a little tired, but this kind of face seems to be suffering from some serious illness.

Is it to come to the temple, pray to the ancestors, and tell about the recovery?But this should have been done long ago.

or.
Ji Xiang couldn't help raising his eyelids.

What is the name of the hall that he saw in his eyes at this moment?

When the Japanese army came here, in order to absorb the fortune of the country, all the other redundant temples in the Jongmyo Temple were demolished, leaving only this ancient temple established by Emperor Taizu of Joseon, but the name of this temple should be called Fengxiandian. .

Ji Xiang narrowed his eyes, and recalled this incident at this time. Although he hadn't stayed in Wangjing for too long before, he almost just passed it by, but the surrounding mages, or those big and rough When the generals talked with each other, they inevitably mentioned the situation when they invaded the Wangjing. Naturally, this ancestral temple has also been there, and some people have seen the situation.

"Speaking of which, this kind of thing seems to have happened before."

Ji Xiang began to recall briefly again.

When Song Ting appeared for the first time, he invaded the bodies of several chief gods in the 72 Divisions of the Yin Division, forcibly controlled their gods with Yin spirits, blocked their souls, and imprisoned them in the gods. Control them like you control heartless puppets.

That time, after the incident was over, it was said that Jing Ling's name had also appeared on some Yinsi yamen and the plaques of Dongyue Temple.

And the last time Jingling Palace appeared.

It was in the mountains near Xiangyang, in the illusion formed by those huge graves!
At that time, King Tianluo appeared!
The king of North Korea didn't notice Ji Xiang. In fact, with his state and level, his physical body was still completely mortal, and it was impossible to discover the existence of Shadow God.He just pushed open the door of Jingling Hall, and the ancestral tablets placed inside could be seen at a glance.

puff-

When the King of Korea entered the Jingling Hall, he knelt down and kowtowed seven times in a row.

And at the moment when the seven heads were kowtowed.

The king of Joseon took out an earthen jar from his sleeve and placed it in front of the ancestor god.

The moment the jar was placed in front of the god, it began to shake. As the lid of the jar opened automatically, a pure power of soul emerged from it!

【: The weather is the soul.More than [-] souls gather together and are controlled by inexplicable magic in a certain vessel. Thousands of souls gather in the altar, and the wandering souls become transformed. Finally, a kind of spirit of all souls is born, which is the return of the acquired souls to the innate. Symbol of essence. 】

[Ghost immortals can increase their morality by 550 years if they eat it. 】

[The "Zhen Ling Pill" can be refined. 】

"Yin and yang change, the two scenes produce truth, the jade spirit revives the soul, restrains the soul and calms the spirit, mixes three and five, never leaves my body, the sun and the moon are preserved, and the three scenes are in the same morning."

"Please see the real spirit."

At the same time, something corresponding to it happened.

In the row of gods in front, there was a mist of incense. After inhaling the smoke, the King of Korea showed an extremely happy expression.

And his extremely emaciated, sallow complexion, which looked like a serious illness, also returned to rosy in an instant, and he even looked a little rich.

Ji Xiang was observing this strange situation.

Even if I eat incense, I will not become like this if I don’t eat incense, including those incense monsters. They will become weak, but they will not produce such changes. It is not so much this change of expression. In the transition between hunger and gluttony, it might be better to say that the North Korean king seemed to be smoking poppies at this time.

The incense penetrated into the body, and the next moment, bursts of black air filled the row of gods!
Ji Xiang's gaze suddenly froze!
The black air, like the mist of incense, was inhaled by the king of North Korea, but this time his expression was even more joyful, and he was completely excited. He even clenched his fists and raised his hands high in the ancestral temple, and then jumped and cheered like a macaque. stand up.

Totally insane!

Can the king of a country easily become a drug addict by exchanging national luck for poisonous incense and black gas?

Because the two seizures by the Ming court failed, so the Song court wanted to use the territory of North Korea this time to reverse Yin and Yang again?

Killing the Yinshan faction and robbing the power of the Yinshan Dharma, is it to flex its muscles in North Korea?
There are changes.

After this weird inhalation ceremony stopped, a god card in the center suddenly shook, followed by a phantom distorted from it, like a large amount of smoke gushing out from a very small hole!
"How, during this time, is the black energy I gave you still useful?"

"The first time you saw me last time, I told you that you will definitely come to me again."

The phantom made a terrifying sound. While speaking, it seemed that three voices spoke from three directions to the center at the same time. The overlapping of the voices made people's ears vibrate continuously and affected the mind.

This is not an ordinary speech, but the method of Yin Ling is used.

"Father, my son, thank you for your gift!"

The state of the King of Korea was not normal. His eyes were dark, and the corners of his mouth were grinning silly. He knelt down again in front of the phantom, kept kowtowing, and at the same time kept telling his gratitude to the other party.

"When the sons and ministers were desperate, it was the father who reached out to help. The sons and ministers were first destroyed by the Japanese pirates and then humiliated by the Ming Dynasty. Now, it is time for them to return."

"Okay, it seems that you have finally made up your mind. This is the right choice, but you have no choice at this time."

"Li Shanhe despises you; the Ming Dynasty looks down on you; Japanese pirates are mortal enemies; as for Western missionaries, they admire China, or cross the sea to Japan. They have never seen anyone cross the East China Sea to preach in your country. After all, they I can't look down on you either."

"As for the people of Nanyang, they are uncivilized, separated by thousands of miles of waterways, and have nothing to do with you. As for Jianzhou and Tatars, they always want to eat your flesh and blood, drink your bone marrow, and talk to them. To dance with wolves and seek skins with tigers."

"I'm the only one waiting, and it's still a little bit of faith."

Xu Ying seemed very satisfied with the North Korean king's statement: "In this case, your country can continue to please the Ming Dynasty with the attitude of 'one feudal servant serves two lords'."

However, when these words came out, the king of Joseon turned pale with shock, and quickly argued: "The Ming Dynasty did not regard North Korea as its son, North Korea did not regard Ming Dynasty as its father, and North Korea was not the former Goryeo. !"

"Goryeo is arrogant, abandoning the king's father and joining the tribe of a foreign country, taking the lord of a foreign country as his father, not the lord of China, he is like a wolf. North Korea did not want to abandon the Ming Dynasty, but the king did not regard his ministers as his ministers , the father does not regard the son as the son, so North Korea abandoned the father and joined the present father. Why is it listed with Goryeo?"

"The Japanese pirates were fierce and brutally murdered their fathers. North Korea was weak, but it also melted with the blood of the Ming Dynasty. However, the father did not kiss his father and son, and was thirsty for the blood of his father and son. The father and son wanted to protect themselves, so they had no choice but to abandon them!"

The king of North Korea tried his best to defend himself, saying that one side is the son of one side, and there is absolutely no reason for one son and two fathers, but Xu Ying tried to appease him, saying that he could accept your attitude, but now you have to pretend to be Ming Dynasty Your filial sons and grandsons should not be easily betrayed.

"It occupies your land and gathers your people. In name, it is your country's autonomy. In fact, it is all up to him. This way of stationing troops abroad can borrow your country's power to the greatest extent and completely control your country. National fortune and national prestige."

"Although you are still independent, in fact you can't help but be independent. The vassal is the subject after all, and the suzerain is the king after all. If the king wants the minister to die, how can the minister not die?"

"But since ancient times, if a minister is unwilling to die, he must mutiny."

"In the Great Song Dynasty, Chen Qiao's mutiny, and Taizu's yellow robe added to his body, this is a journey against the sky, against the world, and against the Lord. It is not easy to succeed."

Xu Ying sighed with emotion, followed by saying:
"If you want to gain power, you have to pay a corresponding price. You have to sell the country's luck, connect with my Song court, and unite yin and yang, and do this kind of life-and-death confusion just to avoid repeating the same mistakes of destroying the country. Of course I understand how you feel."

"So, of course we'll help you."

"Since then, there will be no more life and death in this country. Release our power to the entire country, including those lands occupied by the Ming Dynasty. Replace their incense, replace their temples, and let the dead mix with the living Among them, the living ghosts of the yang world are replaced by the ghosts of the ghosts of the underworld."

"The Ming Dynasty wants to spread their national prestige on your land. This will inevitably make their national destiny cover your land. In this way, you will have me in the national fortunes of the two countries, and you will have you in me. Take the Ming Dynasty as the leader." Take the lead, North Korea is a vassal. If the Ming Dynasty is in danger, it will draw blood from your country's fortune to recover. He will not only do this in your country. Next, Tatars, Western Regions, Nanyang, and South Vietnam. They will all do this Do."

"If you spread my luck in the underworld, my luck in the Song Dynasty can be merged with that in the Ming Dynasty. In this way, the three kingdoms will be unified, not only will my strength in the underworld increase greatly, but it will not only It is the living beings in your country who have lost the concept of life and death, and even the living beings in the Ming Dynasty will lose the concept of life and death."

"I am not only saving you, but also the Ming Dynasty. They should thank me. If there is no such undead army, are they going to fight against the immortals in Lishanhe with their bodies?"

As Xu Ying said, he suddenly looked around.

"There seems to be someone?"

Ji Xiang raised his brows at this moment, and several swords had emerged from the shadow.

"Maybe it's an illusion."

The phantom stared at the location where Ji Xiang existed, and he didn't know whether he really saw it or not. His expression was normal, but he then controlled the entire Jingling Hall with spells, blocking all prying eyes.

Then, an abnormal force seemed to distort the space where Jingling Temple existed, causing it to enter an illusory world.

Ji Xiang recognized that this was the method used by King Tianluo back then, but this phantom was not King Tianluo.

Who is he?
After a while, Ji Xiang almost reached the door of the distorted space, and that force suddenly disappeared without a trace.

Only the Korean king himself was left, slumped on the ground.

The North Korean leader's voice was quiet, and his eyes were full of anger. The point was that those eyes were no longer white, and they were all infected by black.

He is muttering to himself:

"The suzerain state wants to invade the land of the vassal state, take advantage of my country's national fortune, and even deprive our country of autonomy. Our national fortune has just recovered, and it is not enough to even honor your father. How can you be coveted by this Ming country?"

"I am indeed incompetent. I lost to the Japanese pirates, so that the country fell into this situation. Today, I bowed my head and became the running dog of the former Song court. Isn't it because I can't protect the country?"

He was talking to himself in the Jingling Hall alone, sometimes crying, sometimes roaring, and finally regained his composure. As the blackness in his eyes faded, he also returned to his useless and tired look before.

However, he began to mutter in his mouth that he needed that kind of energy.
"As long as I have this kind of energy, I can continue to maintain a strong spirit and strength, and I can become a great monarch. I will work hard to rule, no matter if it is any cronies, foreign pirates, or the so-called No one in the world can influence my decision."

"I am the king of North Korea. No one can control my will. I would rather sell my soul to ghosts and gods. If someone wants to control this land, then I will kill everyone on the land. As long as the mountains and rivers are still there, I will Still the monarch here!"

"Will there be no people if there are no people? The underworld will send me a lot of souls, let them reincarnate and reincarnate to me."

"You don't even need to marry a man and a woman, they can directly send a living person out of ready-made flesh and blood to me."

"It's like growing vegetables."

Ji Xiang watched all this silently.

The king of North Korea has gone mad. If it were him before, he would never be able to say such words, but now that scared and timid face has disappeared, replaced by addictive madness and absolute bewilderment.

But Ji Xiang cannot say that his thinking is wrong.

It is really difficult for a small country to seize its own interests from the battles of big countries. Everyone wants to be the master of the world. People are driven by desire, but this desire is not useless.

It's just that the price after this failure has to be borne by the souls of the entire country, which is enough to show that his heart has been distorted.

The common people don't care about these things, they just need to live a good life, if it is at the cost of sacrificing the lives of all the people in the whole country to achieve one person's great cause, then this is not a tyrant.

Ji Xiang watched the King of Korea leave the temple madly, but this guy did not return to his residence, but turned into an old farmer as he walked. This is also the power that the phantom gave him one.

Song Ting has been researching the art of changing the shape of the fetus, but there is no such thing as the most critical red rainbow jade, which is a god-given treasure that can only be brought out by those with awe-inspiring righteousness. It is an absolutely miraculous thing that has been handed down since the Spring and Autumn Period. .

"It's not blinding the eyes, it's changing your body and spirit, is it the ability of the grudge ghost or the shape-refining ghost?"

Ji Xiang followed the King of Korea. His speed was not fast, but every step seemed to cross several different scenery, so he walked a thousand steps and came to a deep mountain.

A long hoe appeared in his hand, and there was a vegetable garden here.

"It will definitely appear."

The King of Korea said, muttering to himself, these words entrusted all his heart, and when the hoe went down, the soil under the vegetable leaves was dug up, and a fleshy hand stretched out from inside.

A fetus covered in blood, as if not yet fully developed, crawled out of the ground.
