Gou writes entries in the Three Kingdoms

Shendu is located in the South Asian subcontinent. Although it is already early winter, the weather here is much warmer than that of the Central Plains.

Liu Xuan only brought a few dozen of Zhao Yun's elite ashore, while the rest of the soldiers stood guard beside the Poyang.

Entering the land of poison, a lazy and dirty atmosphere fills the air.

Wooden huts and thatched huts of various shapes were built at random, and most of the people wandered around casually. There was no sign of the Han people working hard for life.

The arrival of Liu Xuan and his party did not arouse much interest in the poisonous people. On the contrary, some children looked at Liu Xuan and his party's strange makeup and gathered around to laugh and watch.

Zhao Yun was a little confused, "Your Majesty, the people here don't seem to be wary of us."

Liu Xuan smiled lightly and asked Zhao Yundao,

"Zilong, do you know what this means?"

Zhao Yun pondered for a moment, "As I expected, it means that strangers and troops often come and go in Shendu, and they are used to it."

"That's right. Not only is he not surprised, but he also likes to accept things that come his way."

Liu Xuan said with doubts on his face, "But why are the Yousi people able to mobilize the Shendu people to attack the Han Dynasty, and fight bravely without fear of death?"

"Your Majesty, I think those poisonous people who invaded the Han Dynasty seem to have some fanatical beliefs in their minds to support their battles."

Liu Xuan was startled and looked at Zhao Yun with admiration.
It must be said that Zhao Yun's senses are extremely keen.

He couldn't understand what the poisonous person said, but based on the state of the poisonous person, he could almost guess the truth.

These poisonous people have indeed been brainwashed, and their minds are full of fighting for the God Lord of Yousi Sect.

mind control?

Liu Xuan's expression changed.
"Notepad opens!"

Controlling his thoughts, Liu Xuan followed the words in the notepad and moved forward.

Finally I found the map of Ashoka’s ruins that I originally assembled.

Looking at the text description below, Liu Xuan suddenly realized.

[Map of Ashoka’s ruins: Once upon a time, a great king was born in the South Asian subcontinent, and a unified dynasty - the Maurya Dynasty - was established on the South Asian subcontinent.Ashoka is the greatest king of this dynasty. He has won the respect of people across the continent and people regard him as a god.After his death, his body and the most powerful treasure were buried in a mysterious ruins. 】

[Special reminder: Ashoka’s most powerful treasure seems to hide the secret of the gods and is also the key to unlocking the spiritual contract.By activating the treasure, an unknown contract will be activated.The location of the ruins is specially engraved on the map, and when you are strong enough, you can go find the ruins. 】

In this place of body poison, a great king - Ashoka was born.

At that time, the poisonous people regarded Ashoka as a god. That was also the time when the Mauryan Dynasty was the most powerful.

However, with the death of King Asoka and the fall of the poisonous god, the people here gradually lost their faith.
Especially when the people at the bottom lose their confidence, they will be taken advantage of by Yousi people.

I don’t know what secret method Yousi taught to brainwash these low-level body poisoners.

Since the poisonous people did not make any resistance to the arrival of Liu Xuan and the others, Liu Xuan did not make a big fuss.

Take Zhao Yun and others to follow the map and travel quickly.

After walking for about five or six days, the group had gone deep into the body.

The population here is becoming more and more dense, just like a small town.

It's just that this town is different from the cities of the Han Dynasty. This town has no city walls.

It is a town formed by poisonous people spontaneously gathering together.In the center of the town are rows of towering castle-like houses.

Surrounded by densely packed simple wooden houses.

The main street in the city is a market for poisonous people.

Various small vendors were selling handicrafts and various foods, and in this town, Liu Xuan and the others obviously found many rich people in gorgeous clothes.

Each of these rich people had fat heads and big ears, and they were followed by a group of slaves to carry their sedan chairs and carry items.

Looking at the simple shanty towns around, the poisonous people are slowly gathering together just to make a living from these rich people.

Liu Xuan and the others did not enter the town, but bypassed the dense town and continued walking north.
To the north of the town is a low depression.

According to the instructions on the map, this depression is where the ruins of King Asoka are located.

"This is unlikely..."

Everyone walked to the depression and looked at the scene in front of them. They couldn't believe that the burial place of Ashoka, the greatest king of the Mauryan Dynasty, who was regarded as a god by poisonous people, was actually in such a place.

Although the depression in front of me was only a few dozen acres, the entire depression was filled with stench.

All kinds of domestic waste, broken copper and iron, smelly fish and rotten shrimps are piled up in the depression, and countless flies are buzzing around above.

Liu Xuan held the map in front of his eyes and confirmed it several times. The place where Ashoka's ruins were drawn on it was in the center of this depression.

"Your Majesty, what should we do?"

Zhao Yun held back the nausea in his stomach, frowned and asked Liu Xuandao.

"What else can we do? Just clean it up."

"Ah???" Zhao Yun's expression became distorted when he heard this.

To be honest, if he was asked to clean up this stinking depression, he would rather lead his troops to the capital of Shendu Kingdom.

However, no matter how reluctant he was, he still did not dare to disobey Liu Xuan's orders.

"Brothers, let's do it."

With that said, he took the lead and walked towards the depression.

"Wait, Zilong, why are you going?" Liu Xuan called Zhao Yun with a joking expression on his face.

"Your Majesty, I will take the brothers to clean up the depression."

Liu Xuan smiled and shook his head, "I said we would clean it up, but I didn't say we would do it ourselves."

Liu Xuan pointed to the city behind,

"If we leave so much cheap labor here unused, how long will it take for us to clean it up ourselves?"

After saying that, Liu Xuan's consciousness moved and he summoned paper and pen from the space.
On a large piece of paper, he wrote several notices in ancient Sanskrit and handed them to Zhao Yun.

"Here, just stick these to the densely populated area in the city ahead, and then bring them here."

Zhao Yun took a few pieces of paper and asked curiously,

"Your Majesty, what is written here?"

"Nothing, just a simple notice to recruit people for work."

"Recruiting manpower? We haven't prepared body poison currency, how can we pay for it?"

Liu Xuan smiled lightly and said: "For such a simple job, there is no need to pay with money. All you need to do is take care of the food."

In the secret corner space, there are a lot of wheat seeds and other crop seeds stored, and with Liu Xuan's own endless rice function, it is more than enough to feed thousands of coolies.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhao Yun posted the notice, many literate people came to hear the news.

For them, they only need to clean up the garbage, and they can earn a full meal, and even have some leftover food to take home to fill their families and children’s stomachs. How can it be such a good thing?
A group of people came to the depression in the north of the city with shovels and rakes.

After Liu Xuan explained it clearly to them in pure Sanskrit and gave these people a day's rations in advance, these people immediately got to work.

Behind the scenes, more and more poisonous people came after hearing the news.
Looking at the people cleaning up the garbage in the depression, and looking at the wheat piled as high as a hill in front of the depression, I realized that what the notice said was true.You only need to clean up the garbage in the depression, and you can have two full meals and take away a handful of wheat.

The most important thing is that this notice says that it will only stop when the depression is cleared.

It means that once the work is done, there will be no more work to do.

Where can I find such a good job?

By the second day, there were more than [-] Shendu people coming to work, and they were densely packed in the center of the depression.

Liu declared that he would carry out his mission, and he gave these people a good meal before going to work in the fields.

Liu Xuan couldn't help but be stunned when he saw that these shabbily dressed men could eat six or seven bowls of rice in one meal without even taking a bite of food.

How long has it been since you had a full meal?
It only took five days to clean up the depression.

Only then did everyone realize that there was indeed a tunnel in the center of the depression.

The entrance to the tunnel was sealed, and the upper part was previously blocked by piles of garbage. No one could have imagined that the lower part actually led to the ruins of King Ashoka.

Liu Xuan dismissed the working body poisoners and used the opening method marked on the map to successfully open the entrance to the tunnel.

The entrance is a dark tunnel that leads to nowhere, but there is no peculiar smell inside.

Liu Xuan was hesitating whether to let someone go in to explore the way first, when suddenly there was a noise from behind.

When I turned around, I saw countless people rushing over from the town behind.

Judging from the costumes, there are both Yousi people and local Shendu people.

These people held weapons in their hands and rushed toward the depression with murderous intent.

"Form up to protect His Majesty."

Zhao Yun swung his spear horizontally and stood in front of Liu Xuan.

"Your Majesty, there are many enemy troops. I will cover them. You go back to the Poyang first."

"It's too late." Liu Xuan frowned, "There are so many of them, you can't stop them for long."

Turning his head to look at the dark tunnel behind him, Liu Xuan gritted his teeth and immediately ordered,

"All enter the tunnel. The door can be locked from the inside and they can't get in."

After that, he couldn't help but dive into the tunnel.

When Zhao Yun and others saw this, they had no choice but to follow Liu Xuan into the tunnel.

The sound of ping-ping-pong-pong banging soon came from outside, but the tunnel door seemed to be extremely strong and impossible to shake.

"Go, keep going."

Liu Xuan asked his soldiers to turn on the Huozhezi lighting and continued walking deeper into the tunnel.

There were no mechanisms or anything like that in this tunnel. Everyone walked around a long passage and came to a relatively spacious hall.

There is a somewhat solemn feeling in this hall. In the center of the hall, a statue stands, holding a scepter in one hand, and the scepter emits a faint light.

That solemn aura emanates from this scepter.

"Your Majesty, we have already explored the ruins. There is nothing special in this ruins."

Zhao Yun said, "The treasure your Majesty is looking for is probably this thing."

Liu Xuan nodded and slowly approached the statue.

This statue looks lifelike, with a majestic face, and an imperial aura between its brows.
Liu Xuan secretly thought that this statue should be the statue of King Asoka.

Then the scepter in this hand is the most powerful treasure of King Ashoka mentioned in the notepad.

Without any hesitation, Liu Xuan reached out and held the circle in the statue's hand.

[Notepad opens. . . 】

[Treasure Obtained: Ashoka’s Scepter (Dark Gold)]

[Ashoka’s Scepter: The most powerful treasure of Ashoka, the greatest king of the Mauryan Dynasty, hides the secrets of the gods and is also the key to unlocking the spiritual contract. 】

【Do you want to activate Asoka's scepter? 】

"activation!"

[Asoka's scepter has been activated and the spiritual contract has been opened. With this scepter, you can control the power of faith of the descendants of the Maurya Dynasty. 】

As the words in the notepad flashed, Liu Xuan felt that the scepter in his hand suddenly glowed with dazzling light. The light shot out from the scepter and illuminated the entire underground palace.

Those holy Guan Hui seemed to have passed through the stone wall of the underground palace and shot out.

At this moment, Liu Xuan, holding the scepter in hand, understood everything.

At this time, countless Shendu soldiers and Yousi soldiers surrounding the tunnel entrance all saw this miraculous scene.

Countless beams of light shot out from under the depression, like sunlight penetrating dark clouds, rendering the entire depression radiant.

The power of faith contained in this light caused all the poisonous people to kneel down involuntarily and worship devoutly towards the center of the depression.

The tunnel door slowly opened.

Liu Xuan and his party walked out of the tunnel.

Looking at the dense crowd of Yousi and Shendu people outside, Liu Xuan didn't have a trace of worry.

General Yousi, who was leading the army, saw Liu Xuan and the others coming out, with a look of hatred in his eyes.
He pointed the long knife and roared, "Kill them!"

The Gossamer warriors beside him immediately shouted this, brandishing their weapons and rushing towards the depression.

However, the largest number of poisonous soldiers remained unmoved. Most of them stood there with blank expressions on their faces, not knowing whether they should act or not.

Seeing this, General Yousi shouted at these poisonous soldiers: "The time has come to be loyal to the Lord of God. What are you still doing? Kill them. You will be the heroes of the Lord of God, and you will become God's chosen people in the next life."

General Yousi's words made a small number of the Poison Soldiers have a look of struggle in their eyes, and they began to tighten their weapons in preparation for an attack.

Liu Xuan smiled disdainfully and raised the scepter in his hand.

"People of Ashoka, your true gods have been buried in the dirty underground by these gossamers. The glory of the gods has been covered by the dirt, and the beliefs of the gods have been distorted. Now, take up your weapons and protect your true beliefs. .”

As soon as Liu Xuan's words came out, the eyes of the kneeling Shendu Man were full of enlightenment. At this moment, they seemed to have received real guidance from the gods.

The poisonous man picked up the weapon in his hand, stood in front of Liu Xuan, and fought back against the rushing Yousi soldiers.

At the same time, Xiangyang battlefield.

The poisonous people who were madly attacking Liu Xuan's army suddenly retreated from the battlefield as if the possessed people had regained their consciousness.

No matter how Bishop Yousi scolded or persuaded with the teachings of Yousi Sect, the poisonous soldiers remained unmoved.

They threw their weapons on the ground and retreated towards the way they came without looking back.

Bishop Yousi looked at this scene with resentment in his eyes.

"Liu Xuan, even if we try our best to kill Liu Xuan!" (End of Chapter)
