The originally dangerous ghost path no longer seemed so dangerous with everyone's concerted efforts.
Even in some places, we can build roads through mountains and build bridges across rivers.
It’s so awesome.
Especially the section on the ghost road.
Lin Mo called it the 'ancient battlefield'.
His names are very intuitive, without any fancy tricks, he just names the thing what it is.
For example, in front of us, the desolate plain is full of wailing ghosts, broken arrows and spears, broken wooden shields on the ground, flames are rising, and shouts of killing are shaking the sky.
There is really an illusion of instantly traveling back to the ancient battlefield where two armies were fighting.
Lin Mo told all the ghosts not to move and to observe the situation first.
I saw dust flying in front of me, with a faint glow of fire, and a charred corpse lying on the ground not far away.
No.
The other person was still alive and wailing, like meat roasting on charcoal.
Or the kind that is burnt and burnt.
Lin Mo always likes to help others, so he walked over, reached out and grabbed the other person, and cast an extreme cold curse.
In an instant, the flames on the guy on the ground went out, and were replaced by a layer of ice crystals, like a piece of frozen meat just taken out of the freezer.
"You're welcome!"
Lin Mo stood up and saw a figure staggering towards him. It was an evil ghost with a rotten stomach.
The evil ghost was holding a knife with a rolled blade in his hand and had several rags hanging on his body. In addition, he was pierced by arrows, one in the leg, two in the stomach, and the most exaggerated thing was that there was an arrow stuck diagonally in the head.
I don't know if it hurt the nerves, but this ghost has one eye looking up and the other looking down. It's so uncomfortable for people with obsessive-compulsive disorder to look at it.
When the evil ghost saw Lin Mo, it howled, shook, and stumbled towards him, as if it wanted to chop people.
But the next moment, the other party saw the majestic and powerful team behind Lin Mo.
He immediately fell down and lay on the ground pretending to be dead.
"You're still a clever little ghost. Bring it here."
Lin Mo gave an order, and two strong ghost prisoners walked over from behind him and dragged the ghost over without saying a word.
"What's your name?"
"Wang Mazi."
"Where is this place?"
"Ghost Road, battlefield."
"What's that?"
"It's just random killing. You kill me, I kill you, then I die and then I live again, and then I live again and kill again, over and over again..."
"Understood."
Lin Mo clarified the situation in just a few words.
But the other party was indeed a smart guy. He knew what Lin Mo wanted to ask and gave a very accurate answer.
"Old ghost, I leave it to you."
Lin Mo said.
This Wang Mazi is pretty good. Let Laogui paint a rosy picture to brainwash him and recruit him into the team.
He must be a genius.
I don't know how long the fighting has been going on in this place. There are all kinds of broken weapons on the ground. If you don't care, you can pick them up and use them.
The same goes for some tattered armor.
Lin Mo let everyone pick up the items freely.
At this time, the sound of war drums came from somewhere.
The sound was extremely strange.
It was like beating on one's heart, making one's blood boil and murderous intent slowly rise up, making one want to fight to one's heart's content.
If Lin Mo is like this, let alone other ghost criminals.
If we talk about who reacts quickly, it’s Lin Mo and Lao Gui.
The two people immediately realized that something was wrong.
There's something wrong with that war drum.
It can unknowingly stimulate the murderous intent and fighting spirit in one's heart, destroy rationality, and only think about one thing in the mind, which is a crazy fight.
This may also be the significance of establishing this ancient battlefield.
The team is a bit messy.
Lin Mo immediately shouted out a bewitching curse.
Like a thunderclap, the originally restless team suddenly quieted down.
The old ghost also started to lecture at this time and used the same bewitching curse.
You can say anything, even hum a song.
Mainly fighting against the war drum.
Otherwise, you will be brainwashed by the war drums and become passive.
Fortunately, the war drums don’t last too long and they die down after a while.
I guess it sounds periodically, forcing the ghosts here to kill each other.
But this matter made Lin Mo a little unhappy.
"Did anyone of you hear where the drumbeat came from?"
Lin Mo asked with a gloomy face.
Among the ghost prisoners, there are some who are good at hearing sounds and locating locations. They come out to offer treasures at this time. After all, when it is time to show off, you must show off, so that you can demonstrate your value and be reused.
Lin Mo immediately asked the other party to lead the way.
If you find the bastard who beat the drum, I'll give you credit.
The ghost thanked him profusely and worked even harder, but his legs were not very strong and he was a cripple, so he walked with a limp. But because he was eager to make a contribution, he walked very fast, and his posture was so seductive.
Along the way, they encountered some crazy ghosts that wanted to attack, but they were easily knocked to the ground. Lin Mo was also killed by one of them. It was quite pitiful. He would be at a disadvantage if he were to compete with them.
If you want to find someone, find the culprit.
The one who beat the drums, found it.
The other party was hiding in a camp, surrounded by a fence of giant spikes and guarded by ghost soldiers. The people beating the drums inside were brown-skinned ghosts, and there were also people blowing horns.
Lin Mo called Lao Gui over and said, "Aren't you planning to rebel? Why don't you try to take over this place?"
If we can't even take down this small camp, then the rebellion would be a joke.
The old ghost came over and took a look, then smiled and said it was extremely simple.
Then he began to deploy troops and deploy soldiers.
Lin Mo didn't understand this, he also wanted to see what the old ghost would do. After all, the other party had only made promises before, and had never actually put them into practice.
This is an opportunity.
There are only about twenty ghost soldiers inside, and those little ghosts have little combat power. If they can't even survive this small camp, Lin Mo will no longer believe in the old ghost's promises.
The old ghost acted quickly. He found a few powerful ghost prisoners, and then collected some broken shields from all over. If he didn't have any shields, he would just find the bodies of some unlucky ghosts on the ground to use as shields, and then started to charge.
It seems that there is no pattern, but in fact the formations are designed.
The front was responsible for resisting the attack, and then those with stronger strength began to move the fences blocking the way, and then broke through the wooden fence.
Finally, they rushed forward.
The ice ghosts played a role this time, launching a sneak attack. Generally, three ice ghosts were used to deal with one ghost soldier.
One grabbed the legs, one attacked the chest, and one hugged the head.
After one set of attacks, the ghost soldiers were attacked by the extreme cold curse and could not move at once, and could only be slaughtered.
It was easier than Lin Mo thought, and the camp was breached.
The ghost general also played an extremely important role in seizing the armor and weapons of the ghost soldiers and some other things.
This guy was holding a knife and holding off four or five evil soldiers by himself. Otherwise, it would not have been so easy to capture this place.
"how?"
At this time, Laogui came over and smiled.
Lin Mo nodded and said the cake was good and smelled really good!
This is quite interesting. The old ghost had talked about a lot of theories before, but this practice proved that the other party is indeed capable. In addition, the ghost general can indeed use a knife.
However, the sword was still a little small and light for this ghost general.
After conquering the ghost stronghold, the enemy found a big sword from somewhere. In layman's terms, they changed from a one-handed weapon to a two-handed weapon.
Wearing an ill-fitting armor, the ghost general now looks like a real person.
The sword was returned to Lin Mo.
Lin Mo has become more and more familiar with this thing recently, and he would be reluctant to give it away.
Lao Gui is now a military advisor, so Lin Mo asked him what to do next.
"Since this is a battlefield, let's stay here and train our troops first. There are more than one ghost stronghold. Let's eliminate them one by one and strengthen ourselves. When our troops and horses are strong, we can set off again."
"Okay, whatever you say, but I can't stay here too long."
"My Lord, you mean..."
"I'll go first. You and General Ghost will lead everyone in training and expand the team. Then we can cooperate from inside and outside."
"My Lord, wouldn't it be safer if we go together?"
"I have something urgent to do."
"Then let the Ghost General escort you."
"No need. We need it here too. Listen carefully. I have high hopes for you."
"I will definitely live up to your trust."
Lin Mo left first.
He couldn't waste time here. When Guidao got here, he felt that he was almost at the end. He had to hurry up, after all, he didn't know Sister Yue's situation yet.
And my brother.
Lin Mo had a feeling that his brother was most likely still in the underworld.
After passing through the ghost battlefield and crossing a river of Styx, I finally saw the end.
This was not what Lin Mo said, but there was a huge stone standing in front of him, with two big blood-red words written on it.
hell!
This means we have reached the right place.
Lin Mo has also been to other hells. When he was in a neighboring country, he went to the hell created by Yeti.
Although both are called hell, the two places are completely different.
Yeti is more like a desolate land with nothing in it. Apart from the harsh environment, there are all kinds of crazy and vicious demons.
There are ancient buildings in many places. Although they are gloomy and scary, they also reveal a kind of heritage.
Even on the roadside, there are some dilapidated Buddha statues and stone sculptures, and occasionally a stone slab can be found with an ancient poem written on it.
It’s better to have your own hell.
kind!
After all, one is visiting someone else's home, and the other is at your own home, so the feelings are certainly different.
There seems to be someone at the intersection ahead.
look familiar.
Lin Mo walked in and saw, wow, isn’t this Zhong Kui?
It looks like the other party has arrived a long time ago and has been waiting here for a long time.
Lin Mo hurriedly greeted him warmly.
But Zhong Kui's face turned pale and he said nothing.
"Brother Zhong Kui, are you worried about something?" Lin Mo asked.
Zhong Kui nodded and handed a document to Lin Mo.
The latter unfolded it and was stunned.
"Where are you from?"
"Lao Cui gave it to me."
"Judge Cui!"
Lin Mo muttered to himself, and Zhong Kui opposite him couldn't help asking: "It says here that you have died, but you violated the forbidden ring of Yang, is that true?"
violate a ban?
Lin Mo asked what was breaking the rules?
After Zhong Kui explained it, Lin Mo finally understood.
Since ancient times, the country has its own laws, the family has its own rules, the underworld also has its own rules, and it claims to follow the "Way of Heaven".
What is the way of heaven?
It is written in the Tao Te Ching that Tao follows nature.
It's all natural and natural. It's the same with life and death. The boundary between life and death is very clear. If someone violates it, it's a taboo.
It is equivalent to violating the "laws" of the underworld, and one will be held guilty, judged and convicted.
Lin Mo said that this was indeed the case, but I had no idea how it happened.
"You don't know?"
"I don't know. I lost my memory at the time and I don't know anything."
"I've seen this reason quite a lot when I read romance novels. It's not new." Zhong Kui said in a deep voice.
Obviously thought Lin Mo was talking nonsense.
"This is true. I can't help you if you don't believe it. Besides, this is the right time now. The rules of the past don't apply to the present. Taking a step back, the underworld is just a manifestation of the fear of ancient people. It is no different from the haunted houses and horror houses of today. Brother Zhong Kui, you have seen the world, so why do you still believe this?"
“…”
"You are not going to be righteous and enforce the law impartially and bring me to justice, are you?"
“That’s what I thought before.”
"And now?"
"I plan to ask Lao Cui for mercy."
"What a friend!"
"The main thing is that you are not vague. You are the fourth special expert recognized by the General Administration. If we really start fighting, I may not be able to completely suppress you."
"That's because we have such a good relationship. If it were someone else, wouldn't you beat the shit out of that person, big brother?"
“It’s not nice to hear, but I like it.”
The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere suddenly became harmonious.
"Is there any news about Sister Yue? Was she arrested, or..."
"This female ghost is quite powerful. The people in the underworld had no way to deal with her, so they let her escape. But we don't know where she ran to."
Hearing this, Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief.
Sister Yue is very clever and can turn into a doll. If she wants to hide, she can just hide in any corner and it is very difficult to find her.
As long as you don't get caught.
"Where's my brother?"
"You don't have to worry about your brother. By the way, did you know that your brother has a demon in his hand?" Zhong Kui asked.
Lin Mo nodded.
Of course he knows.
It was he who sent several parts of Yin Mo's body to his brother.
"You have also read the arrest warrant. I guess your brother is playing a big game. He has taken great pains to keep you safe. But the Yin Demon is extremely difficult to control. If you are not careful, it will turn against its master. Even Lao Cui was seriously injured by the Yin Demon..."
After Zhong Kui said this, Lin Mo was stunned.
He was a little confused.
But with Zhong Kui's guidance, he figured out what was going on after thinking about it carefully.
At that moment, I felt excited.
"Brother, he is still the same as before, always thinking of me in everything."
Lin Mo finally understood it this time.
Why did my brother have to be so deliberate and even use those old Taoist priests in Zhengqian Palace to spend several years cultivating the Yin Demon?
In order to prevent the Yin Demon from being strangled in the cradle prematurely, he deliberately dismembered the Yin Demon and placed it in seven different places. It seemed to be a seal, but in fact it was to maximize the Yin Demon's strength.
The purpose of my brother doing all this is for himself.
Only by controlling terrifying ghosts like the Yin Demon can one have the ability to control the situation in the underworld.
At this time, Zhong Kui stroked his beard.
"But there's one thing I can't figure out. Even if your brother beats Lao Cui half to death, what good is that? Lao Cui is a petty person who will take revenge for any slight. If you beat him, he will bear more grudges, which is not good. So, does your brother love you, or is he trying to hurt you?"
Lin Mo had no idea about this question.
"There's no rush for this. Just find my brother and ask him and you'll know."
"That's true."
At this time, Lin Mo was thinking about whether to tell Zhong Kui that he had formed a rebel team, when suddenly a gust of cold wind blew over from the other side.
"Sage, the judge wants you to come over."
A team of ghost soldiers appeared.
When they arrived at the place, the leading ghost soldier was stunned when he saw Lin Mo.
He immediately shouted and took it down.
A dozen ghost soldiers immediately surrounded them.
The posture was very fierce, like a raging fire.
Zhong Kui chuckled beside him.
He reached out and patted Lin Mo and said, "It's okay, don't worry, relax."
"After all, I have served in the underworld and have been a judge. Lao Cui and these ghost soldiers still have to consider my face. Don't worry, I will take you to Lao Cui to plead for mercy. To be honest, you don't have any deep hatred with him. What you said is right. Times have changed. Some rules should indeed be changed."
Lin Mo nodded.
Since Zhong Kui has said so, we must listen to this big guy.
As a result, at this moment, a ghost soldier over there blew a strange horn.
After a burst of sharp sounds like ghosts howling, suddenly, the surrounding area was filled with cold wind. In other words, while they were talking, teams of ghost soldiers appeared. Judging from their number, there must be hundreds of them.
Hundreds of ghost soldiers in full armor, this is no joke.
Even Zhong Kui's face changed drastically. He knew that if these hundreds of ghost soldiers rushed over, he would not be able to stop them.
"What are you doing? I will take this person to see Lao Cui..."
Before Zhong Kui could finish his words, the ghost soldiers holding black iron ghost-killing spears had already attacked forward.
He actually took action directly.
No face at all.
Zhong Kui looked incredulous, but still flicked his sleeves, and several evil ghosts emerged from his sleeves.
These evil spirits are not weak.
But it is not enough to face the numerous evil soldiers.
The main reason is that the enemy has too many people, with dozens of black guns stabbing at you. As long as you get stabbed by one, any evil ghost will be doomed.
Lin Mo was also besieged.
Xiaoyu has already taken action.
But he could only barely hold off. The Yin soldiers were strong and numerous. Fighting alone, Lin Mo was now absolutely confident of winning.
But if you are beaten up by a group of opponents, it will be difficult to deal with.
After all, it is the strongest force in the underworld, capable of suppressing countless ghosts and monsters. It is not so easy to deal with.
Lin Mosuan realized that Zhong Kui's face was of no use at all.
By now Zhong Kui also understood what was going on. His old face turned red and he was so angry that he attacked even more fiercely. However, there were too many evil spirits. If he knocked down one, two would immediately rush over.
Can't afford to waste time.
But there is no way to escape.
A lot of ghost soldiers came from behind, and it was obvious that they were going to kill them.
At this time, Zhong Kui took out a ball of blood-red cloth, called Lin Mo over, and then wrapped them both up.
The ghost soldiers around immediately raised their guns and stabbed.
Dozens of iron spears pierced the bloody red cloth into pieces, but when the rags fell away, there was no trace of the two men.
In an alley not far away, a large red cloth that had been hanging on the wall suddenly shook, and two figures rolled out in an instant. They were Lin Mo and Zhong Kui.
Zhong Kui immediately signaled Lin Mo to keep quiet, then looked around and dragged Lin Mo into the nearest gray fog.
When I came out again, I was in another place.
There are pavilions, towers, rockery and ponds.
Lin Mo has been to this place before.
Zhong Kui still had a serious expression at this moment, and said that we have to find a place to hide, and next time, the escape technique will not work.
Lin Mo nodded, then took Zhong Kui to a pavilion in front.
There seemed to be a figure inside the pavilion, appearing and disappearing.
