Zhang Chulan caught the corpse-bug king and put it into the bottle. The corpse-bugs began to rush in frantically like a pot of boiling water. They were so densely packed that they looked like a tide of insects.
"Trouble! I've disturbed a nest of bugs!"
Wang Ye frowned slightly, and swung his hand forward. The Tai Chi power made his sleeves wrap up with a gust of wind, which crushed the corpse-bugs and directly created a piece of open space in front of him.
Immediately afterwards, the Empress was established.
Fireballs fell like meteors from the sky and spread into the insect tide.
Wang Zhenqiu, Hu Bayi and others also displayed their skills, either using the fire-breathing ability or using magical weapons to fight the enemy. The thousands of corpse-bugs had no way to deal with them.
However, it was a tough time for Wu Sanxing and his gang, as they were serious tomb raiders and did not have such magical means.
All you can do is use a shovel or something handy to hit it continuously.
Seeing this, the young man was about to cut his finger and release the Qilin's blood, but was stopped by Wu Xie.
"I have a solution!"
Wu Xie flipped his palm and a seal about the size of a baby's palm appeared in his hand. At the bottom of the seal, there were eight small words "Blessings from Heaven" and "No Taboos" engraved in official script.
This is a token of the Fa Qiu lineage, similar to the Mojin Talisman of the Mojin Sect. The difference is that the Fa Qiu lineage is passed down from generation to generation, with only one Fa Qiu Tianguan in each generation, and only this one seal.
During the Ming Dynasty, the Guanshan Taibao faction advised Zhu Yuanzhang to destroy the Fa Qiu Seal and the Mojin Talisman.
In the end, only three of the tomb-touching talismans managed to escape the disaster and were passed down to later generations. The Fa Qiu Seal can drive away evil spirits and avoid danger. Its most crucial function is to restrain corpse qi, so that the tomb owner will not easily resurrect.
Of course, the effect is also limited. If the tomb owner is too fierce, or the Zongzi is too strong, the Fa Qiu Seal will not work.
There is also a saying in the tomb-touching lieutenant: Fa Qiu seal and tomb-touching talisman can protect you but not ghosts!
To put it simply, if you go down to a tomb with the Fa Qiu Seal and the Mo Jin Fu, and you meet a particularly fierce tomb owner, no seal will work. You'd better wish for the best and run away quickly.
No matter what, corpse-bugs grow by eating rotten corpses and absorbing corpse qi, so the Fa Qiu Seal can be considered a professional match for them.
Wu Xie quickly took out the Fa Qiu Seal and shouted, "Third Uncle, Pan Zi, Fatty, you guys step back, let me do it!"
Wu Sansheng, Pan Zi and Wang Pangzi were using shovels to hit the corpse-bugs that were trying to climb up. They were stunned when they heard Wu Xie's words.
However, they reacted quickly and retreated as they were told. As they moved forward and backward, they saw countless palm-sized corpse-bugs crawling up and they were so scared that they quickly shrank back.
Wu Xie took a deep breath, jumped up with the Fa Qiu Seal in his hand, and directly pressed it.
"Whether it will succeed or not depends on this!"
A seal fell, like the force of a tripod, and eight golden seal characters were imprinted on the ground.
Suddenly, a golden light appeared above the eight golden seal characters on the ground. The light spread along the ground. Under the light, the corpse-bug suddenly let out a sharp squeaking sound.
Then, he quickly retreated from the big rock, and in just a moment, he cleared out a vacuum zone.
"It really works!"
Wu Xie's face was filled with surprise, and he quickly placed the Fa Qiu Seal around him, like stamping a seal.
Sure enough, all the corpse-bugs, without exception, were somewhat afraid of the Fa Qiu Seal, and they dispersed completely after a short while.
When Wu Sansheng saw this scene, his eyes suddenly shrank, but he did not say anything. Seeing the corpse-eating insect tide retreat, several people couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
In the end, these corpse-bugs were strangled to pieces by everyone.
The swarm of corpse-eating insects seemed to have intelligence. When they saw that they were no match for their opponent, they simply retreated.
Zhang Chulan sighed at this time: "If Chen Duo was here, there would be no need to go through so much trouble. We can just control the Corpse-Eating King directly." Wang Ye was furious at this time and grabbed Zhang Chulan's ear: "Don't shake Bilian, sir, I saw it all just now, so you are just working but not putting in any effort, right?"
After saying this, Wang Ye realized that he had spoken out of turn, and he bowed to the void to apologize: "Grandmaster, I have spoken foul language again, please forgive me!"
"Zhang Chulan, you've forced the Taoist priest to swear!"
Zhang Chulan shamelessly patted Wang Ye on the shoulder: "It's okay, it's okay. If you keep these dirty words in your heart, your heart will be dirty. If you say them out loud, your heart will be open!"
Pooh——
"Hahaha! Lao Zhang, you're still the one who's good at talking!" Wang Zhenqiu clapped his hands and laughed.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Chulan said seriously: "These are the original words of the Supreme Taoist Ancestor. I heard them with my own ears. How could they be false?"
"Alright, alright, don't worry about this for now!"
Wang Ye glanced at Hu Bayi and the others, then glanced at Wu Xie and the others: "Hey guys, let's go to another place and have a chat?"
"Otherwise, it will be too confusing and difficult for us to carry out our work!"
Hu Bayi and Wu Xie nodded when they saw this.
Hu Bayi and the other two need a reasonable identity in this world, and then unite all the forces that can be united to eradicate the demon Po Xun.
Wu Xie also wanted to know more. After all, the incident had already happened. What he wanted to know most now was the whole story and to confirm the guesses in his mind.
As for Zhang Chulan and the others, they are just working for free to gain experience, but of course they also have their own tasks.
Recover the meteorite copper and jade, and within a certain range, help Wu Xie and Hu Bayi to perform the next big show.
To put it simply, it is the role of an NPC.
The group left the Qixing Lu Palace and found a nearby teahouse to share the information they had.
As for Aning and Chen Chengcheng, they returned to Qiu Dekao to report their experiences.
----
Wu Sansheng originally wanted to join the negotiation, but Zhang Chulan disagreed with him. After all, no one wanted to deal with an old fox, so he only allowed Wu Xie, Fatty Wang, and Zhang Qiling to serve as representatives for the negotiations.
Zhang Chulan transmitted the two copies of Wu Xie's future memories given to him by Rensheng Daojun to Fatty Wang and Zhang Qiling as a meeting gift and in order to gain their trust.
This is what prompted the rapid formation of the Iron Triangle.
After listening to what Hu Bayi, Zhang Chulan and others said, Wu Xie frowned and looked extremely gloomy.
He really didn't expect that "it" would have such an origin. The remaining will of the ancient gods Luwu and Qiongqi turned into the way of heaven, using the immortality of corpses and bones as a game to guide people to play.
My brother's Zhang family was only supported by Lu Wu's will, with the purpose of weakening the remaining power of Qiongqi in the world.
The decline of the Zhang family was also caused by Qiongqi secretly using various forces as pawns.
I'm afraid that Wang Canghai and the subsequent Wang family don't even realize that they have become pawns!
"In other words, you help us deal with the Heavenly Dao that is behind everything, and we need to help you fight the Heavenly Demon Po Xun?"
Zhang Chulan nodded: "That's right, and we in Heaven will pack up and take away the remains of Lu Wu and Qiongqi!"
"No, why should I do that? We work so hard, but all the benefits belong to you. Aren't you too smart in doing business?" Fatty Wang, also known as Wang Yueban, was unwilling to accept the fact and wanted to seek some benefits.
Zhang Chulan sneered, "These things would be a disaster if they stayed in your world. Even if I gave them to you, you are innocent, but guilty of possessing a treasure. Can you keep it?"
Now, it was Wu Xie and the others' turn to remain silent. (End of this chapter)
