White Bone Monkey King

A mansion somewhere in the capital.

The candlelight flickered in the room, and through the reflection on the window paper, a couple was seen sitting in the room.

The woman seemed to be sewing shoe soles to supplement the family's household income;

The man seemed to be repairing a raincoat to prepare for the next possible rainy day.

And the scene in the house was indeed like this. This was a very ordinary couple's family. At first glance, there was nothing wrong.

But if you look at it for a long time, you will find some differences. The couple pierced their fingers several times, but they seemed to have no pain and continued to sew shoe soles and repair raincoats as if nothing had happened.

The two sat face to face, with an oil lamp on the table. They kept sewing and mending, with stiff facial expressions, and no communication throughout the whole process. They all lowered their heads and worked on their own.

This made the two people even more abnormal. Even if they were deaf and dumb, there would be some eye contact between the couple. It is absolutely impossible to have no communication, giving people a dead and depressing feeling.

Suddenly, the table between the couple split in the middle to both sides, revealing a dark secret passage.

The couple was still busy with their own things, like puppets without intelligence and being manipulated by others, indifferent to the changes in the outside world.

Going down along the secret passage, after going several feet deep underground, we came across a secret room.

The secret room was dark and gloomy, and the cold air was overwhelming. It was illuminated only by four dim oil lamps.

There were four coffins in the four corners of the secret room. Each coffin was tightly tied with a finger-thick iron chain, and the surface of the coffin was painted with blood curses.

The four dim lighting oil lamps were placed on the coffins, just like lighting soul lamps.

In the middle of the four coffins was an altar.

There were bottles and jars filled with poisonous insects on the altar, as well as various ritual instruments and black talisman paper for opening the altar.

There was a person sitting behind the altar. Because the light in the secret room was dim, it was impossible to see the specific appearance of this person, but this person seemed to have encountered some big trouble and was hurriedly packing up the altar and planning to leave here.

Suddenly!

The four coffins at the four corners of the altar were shaking violently, and the thick iron chains that bound the coffins were also shaking.

At the same time, the altar was also shaking.

It was like a sign before the earth-turning dragon came.

Puff!

Puff!

The fire in the secret room exploded. It turned out that the barrier talismans attached to the wall to isolate the outside world were burning one by one as if they were overloaded.

Five barrier talismans spontaneously combusted!

Ten barrier talismans spontaneously combusted!

Twenty barrier talismans spontaneously combusted!

The talismans attached to the earthen walls of the secret room all spontaneously combusted without fire, and the secret room, which should have been dimly lit, suddenly became as bright as day.

"Martial arts! Taoism! Human! Immortal!"

The shadow man who was about to escape from this place suddenly had his pupils shrink and gritted his teeth, with a gloomy and frightened expression.

"How is it possible! How could you find me so quickly and chase me here so quickly!"

The black shadow man didn't care about the magic tools, and planned to abandon everything here and escape from the secret room immediately. He had a hunch that the martial arts immortal would find him soon and he couldn't hesitate any longer.

But he was still a step too late.

Because Jin An didn't come to hunt him down in person, but used the Taoism of taking things from the bag to fight in the air.

Once the position is locked by the Taoism of taking things from the bag, it is like taking things from the bag. It is as easy to take a person's head thousands of miles away as taking things from the bag.

Rumble!

There was a strong wind in the secret room. It was the spiritual power of the barrier talisman burning, fighting against the void invaders, forming a spiritual power storm.

The shock came too fast, and the talisman self-immolation was still accelerating. In just one or two breaths, half of the talismans had turned into ashes.

One or two breaths were too short, so short that the black shadow man hadn't even crossed the altar.

As long as the position was locked by the Taoism of taking things from the bag, he would come in an instant and there was no escape.

Finally, all the talisman papers on the wall were burned, but the secret room did not fall into darkness again, because a bloody hand with red clouds and the scorching power of the sun passed through the void and descended into the secret room out of thin air.

As soon as the bloody hand descended, it blocked the only secret passage leading to the outside world in the secret room.

Seeing that the only retreat was blocked, the black shadow man knew that he had to fight hard today to escape.

The only thing to be thankful for was that it was only the palm of the martial arts immortal who descended now, not the martial arts immortal himself.

Otherwise, according to the rumors about the martial arts immortal in the outside world, the terrifying means that could suppress two pseudo-fourth-level strongmen of the Tianzhu Kingdom at the same time in the Taoist Huangting inner scene, if he really faced the martial arts immortal, even if there were a hundred of them, he would not be able to move a finger of the martial arts immortal.

The black shadow man offered a soil talisman and planned to escape directly from the underground, but he didn't know that the soil talisman spontaneously ignited without fire as soon as it appeared, and the spell was broken.

Probably because the secret room was filled with the Yang thought of the martial arts immortal at this time, all the magic of the gods and the soul out of the body were suppressed by the Yang force of heaven and earth and could not be used at full strength.

The black shadow man did not give up and took out another earth talisman. This time it ignited without fire and the spell was broken.

Looking at the fire cloud palm in the void, it seemed to have eyes and accurately captured his position. The black shadow man cursed and then returned to the altar. Since all the retreat routes were blocked, he could only fight hard to gain a glimmer of life.

The black shadow man slapped the altar, and the human skulls, leg bones, hand bones, pottery jars containing human internal organs, and various human bone magic tools on the altar were all shaken into the air and slapped towards the fire cloud palm in the void.

He knew very well that these magic tools were not enough to fight against the martial arts immortal in the face of the powerful Yang thought power of the martial arts immortal, so he only hoped to temporarily delay the martial arts immortal.

At this time, the four coffins in the secret room were still shaking, and the coffins and iron chains were emitting yin energy and the stench of corpses.

The black shadow man grabbed four incense sticks from the incense burner, and the red silk ropes under the incense sticks brought out four straw men.

However, this straw man was different from the usual scarecrows. It was a black straw man woven with poisonous grass that liked cold and humid environments.

The black shadow quickly pointed two fingers in the porcelain bowl filled with bright red blood, and then quickly put eyes on the four straw men on the altar.

When drawing a dragon, you don’t put the eyes on it, when drawing a tiger, you don’t put the pupils on it, and when drawing a paper man, you only draw the eyes but not the eyes.

There are rules for each industry, and behind each rule are countless lives.

Putting the eyes on is to open the mind, allowing the dead to borrow the yang energy of the living, and many strange things began to follow.

Knowing that this is a taboo, the black shadow man took the initiative to put the eyes on it at this time. This is to fight against the martial arts immortals, without any scruples, and go all out.

As the straw-tied man on the altar was touched, boom!

The four coffins placed against the corner of the wall were filled with Yin Qi, and the coffins and iron chains all exploded, and all kinds of poisonous insects rolled to the ground, including snakes, scorpions, insects, centipedes, spiders, toads, and maggots!

The red string tied to the straw-tied man was also blown off with the iron chain!

Four iron-armed flying zombies flew out of the coffins. For a moment, green corpse fire, foul-smelling corpse miasma, and foot-long nails all surrounded the palm of the Void Fire Cloud.

Seeing the four flying zombies committing crimes, the black shadow man gained confidence. These were the flying zombies he had spent many years raising with great effort.

Those flying zombies were nourished by Yin Qi and poisons for many years, and their skin and flesh were as hard as a copper wall and iron wall. They were difficult to be injured by magic weapons and were not affected by water or fire. Moreover, he raised hundreds of poisonous insects in the coffins to kill each other, and then fed the flying zombies with the Gu King. Each of them was extremely poisonous. If touched, it would be killed, and even the Yuanshen could be poisoned to death.

These four flying zombies were his biggest trump card. He didn't want to expose them so early. He wanted to sacrifice them for a few more years. The Four Symbols of Broken Heaven and Earth had been broken, and the third realm was no longer the extreme realm. As long as he was allowed to sacrifice them for a few more years, it would not be impossible to sacrifice the four flying zombies to the fourth realm.

It was a pity that he stopped the sacrifice in advance to deal with the martial arts immortal this time, which disrupted his plan.

But the incredible scene that happened next shattered his dream of poisoning the martial arts immortal.

Acid!

The sour sound of metal colliding, and fierce sparks burst out.

The foot-long nails of the four poisonous flying zombies and the palm of the void fire cloud burst out sparks, boom!

Bang!

The iron-hard arms of the flying zombies were blown off!

The head-on collision not only failed to shake the martial arts immortal, but also exposed the defect that the flesh was not as strong as the martial arts immortal. The iron arms of the four flying zombies were all broken.

The foot-long nails, sharper than a dagger, could not even pierce the membrane of the palm of the void fire cloud.

Seeing this, the black shadow man screamed in shock and anger: "This is absolutely impossible!"

"This is not the third realm! Wudao Renxian, you have already broken through the third realm!"

At this time, they were fighting in the air, and no one responded to him. The four flying zombies had no intelligence. After their arms were blown off, they still wanted to stop the Void Fire Cloud Palm. As a result, they were all shattered and exploded into a rain of corpses.

The Yang Fire Blood Qi ignited the rain of corpses, and the rain of corpses turned into a rain of fire.

The atmosphere in the secret room suddenly became solemn. The Fire Cloud Palm wrapped in the rain of fire, like a sky-covering suppression of the black shadow man. The yin and moisture in the underground secret room were evaporated, making people feel dry mouth and dry skin.

The black shadow man knew that if he fell into the hands of the Wudao Renxian, there would be absolutely no chance of survival. He still wanted to resist stubbornly, so he raised the bloody porcelain bowl on the table and drank it all in one gulp.

The blood seemed very precious. His eyes were red, and he was reluctant to waste a drop. He stuffed the porcelain bowl into his mouth, chewed it up, and swallowed it into his stomach.

At this time, his expression was ferocious, and his mouth was full of blood. It was unknown whether it came from the blood in the porcelain bowl or from the mouth and tongue pierced by the broken porcelain bowl.

"Great Witch, save me!"

The blood-stained soul rushed out of the black shadow's body, and it could actually resist the blood and steam of the martial arts immortal and fight back.

The blood-stained soul visualized a round of time wheel that was dripping with blood, with the power to crush the law of time. Wherever it passed, the surrounding time and space were distorted, and it became bigger and bigger, and hit the palm of the void fire cloud.

Boom!

With an explosion, the ground here was lifted up by the terrible explosion, revealing the secret room space buried deep underground.

"Great Witch is just like this!"

The plain voice of the martial arts immortal was left above the ruins of the secret room.

...

The residence of Cheng Baiqing, an academician of the Imperial Hospital.

Medicine Pavilion.

Jin An picked a ginseng fruit from the ginseng fruit tree, and with his fingernails, he cut the back of the ginseng fruit and grabbed a person whose life or death was unknown from the ginseng fruit.

"Little brother, you mentioned the Great Wizard just now. Did you fight with the Great Wizard of the Grassland Khanate just now?" The old Taoist climbed down the long ladder with his hands and feet, and came to check the identity of the captured person.

Jin'an said disdainfully: "It's just a drop of blood shadow, not even the fourth realm, and can only launch a pseudo-fourth realm attack. It should be a drop of blood left before the Four Symbols Bureau of Breaking the Sky and the Earth was broken."

After saying that, the Gengjin Qi on his arm was retracted, and the golden skin returned to its normal color.

The old Taoist checked the person on the ground and frowned and said: "I can't sense the three souls and seven spirits in his body. Is his soul scattered and become a living dead?"

Jin'an: "The Great Wizard sensed my action and knew that the matter was exposed. He treated this person as a discarded child and destroyed his three souls and seven spirits."

The old Taoist looked serious: "It's really the spy of the Grassland Khanate who has been planted in the capital!"

Jin An snorted coldly and walked up to Su Susu: "Fortunately, we still have this clue. No one has been able to escape interrogation under my "Demon Holy Art"."

The interrogation process was not complicated. With his current spiritual and martial arts skills, the interrogation went smoothly.

Su Susu's family was originally a local wealthy family, and they had no worries about food and drink all their lives. Because her father was on the wrong side of the court, the family fell into decline. Even she herself was living in the world to make a living. When people from the Prairie Khanate came to find her, she It's easy to be instigated.

Su Susu used her identity to make friends with noble officials, while paying attention to those unhappy and unappreciated officials in the capital, and finally selected Cheng Baiqing.

Seven years ago, Cheng Baiqing was an associate academician of Taiyuan Hospital. After he was instigated to rebel, with the support of the Prairie Khanate's unique rouge formula and money, Cheng Baiqing's career began to flourish. He relied on his unique rouge to win the favor of the noble concubines. He not only He expanded the Tiangong Miao Pavilion business and was promoted to a full academician of Taiyuan Hospital.

Above the academician of Taiyuan Hospital is the academician of Taiyuan Hospital. He has already taken care of it. The academician of Taiyuan Hospital will retire in two years. At that time, he will be the academician of Taiyuan Hospital. By then, he will have a good reputation in Taiyuan Hospital. right.

The Grassland Khanate was not worried that Cheng Baiqing would have second thoughts and betrayal midway, because the unique rouge formula was Cheng Baiqing's Achilles' heel.

Cheng Baiqing did not know that the most important formula for eternal youthfulness in rouge was extracted from human oil. When he found out, it was already a few years later. At that time, the imperial concubines and the female relatives of high-ranking officials in the capital had already used Tiangong Miaoge Rouge Makeup Powder. I can't live without this thing for years. Cheng Baiqing knew very well that once this matter was exposed, those people would definitely kill people and silence them in order to preserve the family's face.

So he can only go to the dark side in one way.

It is the Miao Pavilion of the Heavenly Palace that succeeds, and the Miao Pavilion of the Heavenly Palace that fails. If you are in company with the devil, you will surely be attacked by the devil.

But an accident happened along the way, and Cheng Baiqing began to have second thoughts.

Before Cheng Baiqing could even sit down at the Imperial Hospital to give advice, the news of the demise of the Prairie Khanate had already reached the capital. Later, it was reported that the Great Witch Lord had failed in his sneak attack and was hunted down by powerful men from the Kangding Kingdom. He fled back to the northern grasslands in embarrassment and did not dare to set foot in the Central Plains again. After learning this, Cheng Baiqing was in panic all day long. He knew that there was no point in working for the Grassland Khanate anymore, so he began to have second thoughts and wanted to get rid of the control of the Grassland Khanate.

Seven days ago, Cheng Baiqing was upset about this matter. In anger, he accidentally slapped his daughter. Cheng Baiqing actually regretted the slap as soon as he slapped her, but it was already too late. That slap sent her daughter to the point of no return...

The superiors behind Su Susu never relaxed their surveillance on Cheng Baiqing. They saw that Cheng Baiqing had rebellious intentions and his thoughts were no longer on their side. In order to warn Cheng Baiqing, they sent Cheng Ling'er to the Tiangong Miao Pavilion on the day he made a big fuss. Cheng Linger refined the ingredients for rouge makeup powder.

They thought that Cheng Baiqing had so many concubines and children that killing one of Cheng Baiqing's daughters would not cause any serious harm, but could also serve as a warning. But they underestimated the importance Cheng Baiqing attached to the love of flesh and blood. The moment Cheng Baiqing took his daughter's human oil, he went crazy and sought revenge on them like a mad dog.

Seeing Cheng Baiqing lose control, he had no choice but to kill Cheng Baiqing as well.

Although Cheng Baiqing died, his body could be used again. Su Susu and the others originally wanted to keep Cheng Baiqing's body to see if they could find an opportunity to enter the palace and poison Emperor Kang Zhao, which would also be regarded as revenge for the fall of the Prairie Khanate... But who knew that... At this juncture, Jin An suddenly led the Criminal Investigation Department to conduct a grand search of the spice shop, disrupting their plan.

They didn't know that Jin'an's real purpose was to search the Ministry of Internal Affairs. When they saw the Criminal Investigation Department appearing at Penglai Inn, they thought that the whereabouts that had been dormant for more than ten years were exposed. They were eager to kill people and erase the traces, but instead they attracted the criminal investigation. Cha Si pursued him relentlessly, and finally tracked down the lair of Tiangong Miao Pavilion.

It's not that they don't want to escape, it's just that they have no way to escape.

First, the Spice Shop was blocked by the Criminal Investigation Department.

The second is the Holy Fetus of lead and mercury that Jin An incarnates outside of his body. The late-stage cultivation of the Three Realms leaked out, suppressing a bunch of snakes, insects, rats and ants from moving.

Although he had already guessed that those harmful oils and rouges had long flowed into the hands of the concubines in the harem, when he heard the confirmation with his own ears, the old Taoist priest was still speechless: "Little brother, this matter is very difficult. After all, it is The involvement is too wide, including the hospital, the palace, the families of all the civil and military officials in the capital... How do you plan to write this closed case file? "

"Then how do you plan to announce to the outside world the case of academician from Taiyuan Hospital collaborating with the enemy and treason?"
