Imperial City Investigative Department

Xing Yun breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Why do they want to keep the official family?"

"They are not ready yet, and the world cannot be in chaos. If they mess up, all their previous arrangements will be in vain. Those who were just sent away with soil are all wearing official uniforms. It can be seen that they put their useful souls in their own bodies. The useless ones turned into water ghosts in the river, mummies in the caves... And they still have what they want that they haven't got yet, so they need to get it with the help of officials, such as... the picture of encountering immortals."

Speaking of the Picture of Encountering Immortals, Gu You asked Xing Yun: "This place itself is the nest of those people, and the people in the coffins in the cave were also deceived by them. You actually asked them where the Picture of Meeting Immortals is? What if they knew , why do you have to come all the way to ask?"

Xing Yun glanced at Wu Chen and said: "I wanted to lead Wu Chen to tell him about the Encounter with the Immortal Picture. Along the way, I could only occasionally ask you about your previous affairs. Wu Chen never took the initiative to mention the Encounter with the Immortal Picture. .”

Wu Chen touched the broken sword. The broken sword made a buzzing sound, as if he didn't like Wu Chen's touch. Wu Chen didn't take it seriously. He flicked the sword twice more and then muttered: "The ghost king is going to meet the immortal picture." What’s the use?”

"Can ghosts become immortals?" Gu You looked at Xing Yun and asked.

Xing Yun said hurriedly: "Don't ask me, I don't know. The Queen Mother came to me and she scared me a lot..."

"Besides Encountering Immortals, she didn't ask you to do anything else?" Wu Chen asked.

"She originally only said that she would let you go to Shuangxi Village, and she tried to find a way to ask where the Yuxian Tu was along the way. Then she said that if it was absolutely necessary, she would let me hurt you, and then she denied herself and said to herself To put it bluntly, you shouldn’t be that capable.”

"So you think it's not difficult to do, so you didn't tell the truth along the way. You think I'm invincible. Since I want to come to Shuangxi Village, you're not afraid. If you accidentally ask about the location of Yuxian Tu, you're considered invincible. Neither side is offended, but I didn’t expect Shuangxi Village to be like this, it’s much more complicated than you think.”

Wu Chen stood up as he spoke, and Xu Da asked worriedly: "Aren't you going to take a rest?"

Wu Chen raised the broken sword in his hand and said: "Having this broken sword has saved me a lot of energy. This mountain is hollow, so it should not be difficult to destroy. You must cross the river quickly, face Yu Shian's team, and destroy the soil as soon as possible." bring back……"

"What should he do?" Gu You pointed at Xing Yun and asked.

"The eldest brother fell into the river. He jumped in without thinking. If he wanted to harm us, he didn't have to wait until this time. Now the truth has been made clear. He won't do anything. Don't imitate Chen Zhong. , be wary of everyone, of course, don’t imitate me..."

Wu Chen thought of Chen Nanzhu.

Xing Yun asked, "How useful can the little bit of soil brought back by the few of us be?"

Wu Chen said:
"Destroying this mountain is the first step, killing everyone here is the second step, and sending away all the souls here is the third step. After the souls are released, they will also wander around here. They will hide after dawn. Don’t worry if you come out after dark, a day or two too late, they won’t be able to hurt anyone, as long as I can kill everyone here tonight and not give them another chance to cause trouble.”

Lao Ba took a step forward and said: "I will stay with the Lord..."

"No, it's hard for you to use it with me."

The few of them thought that Wu Chen had just leveled half of the mountain, so they said nothing. Xu Da only told Wu Chen to be careful, and the few of them disappeared into the night.

Wu Chen saw that several people had disappeared and let out a long breath. He listened to the movements of several people and found that the road down the mountain was not easy. Although no one knew how to control the mechanism now, and the water ghosts were not afraid, it was still dark. Mo was the obstacle. It wasn't that Wu Chen didn't want to send a few people down the mountain, but it was just that he had worked hard just now. He sent a few people down one by one. If he came up to rest for a while, it would be daybreak. What's more, Wu Chen didn't know what he would encounter soon. No matter what the situation, they always have to learn to walk the hard way on their own.Wu Chen listened to the movements of several people, but he was recalling scattered past events in his mind. He didn't know when he would be able to recover all his memories. Without complete memories, the ways to deal with ghosts could only emerge bit by bit.

Wu Chen thought of Chen Nanzhu again. This name was given by Chen Zhong. At that time, when he saw that Chen Zhong did not hesitate to recognize Pinggu as his adopted daughter, he thought that Chen Zhong wanted to take advantage of him and keep him as a hostage. Now that he thinks about it, , he really thinks highly of himself.

Chen Zhong has never taken anyone seriously, and he doesn't want anyone under his command to be good in all aspects. Otherwise, how could Gu Zuo verbally provoke Chen Zhong in front of him?I haven't had this kind of experience in the past. At the right time, I handed Chen Zhong a ladder. Chen Zhong walked down the ladder, killing those who deserved to be killed, and catching those who deserved to be killed.

But when it came to him, Chen Zhong didn't do that.

Wu Chen thought again that he was going to see the murals under the mountain col. He didn't want Ping Gu to follow him, but Chen Zhong made a face that he wanted to die together, so that Wu Chen had no doubt that he was there. Now he looked back and saw why. Do you want Ping Gu to follow?If Pinggu is used as a tool to manipulate him, shouldn't he stay by his side?If Wu Chen hadn't died and Pinggu had died, wouldn't this thing be useless?Wouldn’t it be in vain to acknowledge this goddaughter?

Wu Chen looked around, it was pitch black.

The Ghost King knew about him, but he didn't know when he woke up, let alone where he was.

Not everyone can deal with the ghosts in the mountain col. After Wu Chen dealt with them, the ghost king knew that Wu Chen was awake.

Why not kill him when he first wakes up?

Wu Chen couldn't understand. When he first arrived in this life, he was no different from a newborn child. He could only walk and talk, but nothing else. But Chen Zhong took him in.

The mural below the mountain col is the picture of encountering immortals, and it is also the evidence that Datou was sentenced to the mortal world, so Datou knew what was on the mural, and angrily blackened a path on the mural with a torch. Ping Gu was there at the time, and she She didn't know that it was the Picture of Encountering Immortals. She thought the Picture of Encountering Immortals was a painting that could be placed in the study.

Wu Chen took a deep breath. He heard that Xing Yun and the others were already halfway up the mountain. Xing Yun drank a few drops of his blood, and his skills indeed improved. Fortunately, he was there to help everyone along the way, otherwise...

Wu Chen breathed a sigh of relief, finally not seeing everything wrong.

But at the same time, Wu Chen also heard movement from deep on the top of the mountain. He couldn't take action now. The collapse of rocks would affect Xing Yun and the others, and he would have to wait until they reached the bottom of the river and crossed the river before he could take action.

Wu Chen looked into the darkness, and five or six people appeared in front of him in embarrassment, holding swords.

Those people were shocked when they first saw the bodies of the four people before, and then when they saw Wu Chen standing there properly with a broken sword in his hand, one of them couldn't help but blurt out: "Why is Ling Yun in your hand? "

Wu Chen raised his hand and looked at the broken sword in his hand, and smiled: "So your name is Ling Yun...Ling Yun?"

Wu Chen felt that the name was very familiar.

The broken sword buzzed and trembled a few times. (End of chapter)
