Chapter 164 The Ambition of the Demon Palace (Subscription Request)

Chu Wujiang thought of the pride of the gravekeeper in the past, and couldn't help but smile and said:
"Is the matter resolved?"

Elder Jing was sweating profusely, and nodded quickly and said:

"Thanks to Lord Longcheng."

"If you hadn't helped me to wipe out all the ghosts in Mangshan, I'm afraid we would still be kept in the dark."

"Now the Ghost King of Misfortune has been successfully sealed by Master Zhiping."

"Please rest assured, Lord Longcheng, it won't happen again."

Elder Jing kept a very low profile.

If the imperial court knew that the gravekeeper had been infiltrated to this extent, they would definitely not reward the gravekeeper for eliminating the traitor in time.

Instead, the emperor would send out imperial censors to investigate the matter from top to bottom, and the gravekeepers would be severely punished and would not be able to continue to live a carefree life.

As the saying goes, deceive your superiors but don't hide the truth from your subordinates.

Chu Wujiang said meaningfully:

"The Chu family and the gravekeeper have had a long-standing friendship."

"The last time the Chu family obtained the secret treasure, the Hundred Ghosts Map, they specially deposited it in Mangshan, which shows that our friendship is unbreakable."

You are so shameless.

Putting up that picture of a hundred ghosts is clearly an attempt to harm the gravekeeper.

Elder Jing felt bitter in his heart, but he quickly apologized:

"Sir, don't worry."

"The Hundred Ghosts Picture was lost and recovered."

"To show my sincerity, I asked Haitang to move all the fortune treasures from the treasury and place them in the training room for you to choose from."

Elder Jing was afraid that Chu Wujiang was not satisfied when he said this, so he quickly added:
"There are still some ancient tombs in Mangshan that have not been excavated."

"As soon as we have any harvest, we will send it to the Chu family residence."

Chu Wujiang smiled, waved his hand and said:
"You are too polite, elder."

"Let's not worry about the fortune treasure for now, let's first talk about the conspiracy of the Demon Palace."

Great Tomb, Chamber of Secrets
Since the matter was confidential, Elder Jing would only tell Chu Wujiang, and after arranging for the others to rest, he went to the secret room to discuss the matter in detail.

Chu Wujiang put up a [mute note] as usual to prevent anyone from eavesdropping, and then Elder Jing whispered:
[Replying to Lord Longcheng, after our investigation, the Demon God Palace is not coming for the remains of Emperor Wu this time.]

【It is the dragon vein of Mangshan. 】

Dragon vein?

That thing has been cut off for nearly six hundred years, what's the use?

The largest dragon vein now is in Tianzhou and Tianjing.

As long as there is no chaos in the imperial capital and there is no large-scale unrest in the hundreds of states, the royal energy will continuously converge in Tianjing, making it more likely that talents and peerless geniuses will be born there.

In addition to protecting the body, dragon energy can also enable the local sect to have more geniuses and special physiques.

There have been no such thing as dragon veins in Longzhou for a long time, and it has not fully recovered in six hundred years, so the major sects are not very willing to settle here.

Chu Wujiang looked puzzled, and Elder Jing immediately explained:

【Recently, a rumor has been circulating in many places. 】

[What are you talking about? The dragon vein has returned and destiny is in turmoil. It's a pity for the rise and fall of the past six hundred years. ]

[They slandered our dynasty, saying that every 600 years, the Longjiang River has changed its course, and the dragon vein is about to return to Longzhou.]

【I cannot bear to speak frankly. 】

Di Hao has been in seclusion for a long time. Even with the supervision of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the number of ambitious people is constantly increasing.

Various rumors against the dynasty were also circulating, shaking people's hearts.

Chu Wujiang asked in a deep voice:
【Elder, please continue.】

Elder Jing had no choice but to look left and right, making several gestures to express his loyalty to the court, and then he slowly spoke:
[So the Demon Palace tried to sow misfortune in the dragon vein in order to seize the initiative.]

[When the new emperor ascends the throne, they will be able to use their supreme secret techniques to murder the new emperor, causing chaos in the world again.]

Chu Wujiang frowned and asked:

[Why did the Demon Palace do this? 】

He could understand the desire to overthrow the imperial court.

He couldn't understand why the Demon Palace was planning to kill the new emperor after overthrowing the imperial court.

The former is a normal villain organization and an ambitious person, while the latter is probably a psychopath.

Elder Jing sighed:
[It is normal that Lord Longcheng does not know. ] [Because the court stipulates that no one is allowed to spread the ideas of the Demon Palace. ]

[The Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect is still somewhat rational, just looking forward to the return of the Ghost Emperor, while the Demon God Palace is much crazier.]

[They believe that humans are too fragile to withstand the whispers of the evil god and cannot grasp the blessings of the devil. ]

[So the idea of ​​the Demon Palace is to open the Holy Emperor's formation, induce the demonic energy to descend to the mortal world, turn everyone into a demon, and solve the problem once and for all.]

Chu Wujiang was stunned.

The philosophy of the Demon Palace can be summed up in one word.

I am no longer a human being.

If the demons are difficult to deal with, then don't try to deal with them, just join the ranks of the demons.

Under the influence of this idea, the Demon Palace hopes for chaos in the world.

Even some people came out to stop the chaos in the world, and they also wanted to kill this king.

Chu Wujiang took a breath and said:

[These are really a group of crazy guys. ]

Elder Jing echoed:

[Of course, in the Nine Demons Ranking List, the Demon Palace ranks first! ]

[It’s just that in recent years, the imperial court has vigorously cracked down on them, and their scope of activities has been greatly reduced. ]

[I didn't expect that they would spend so much money to cooperate with the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect this time. ]

Other evil demons and heretics, at most, want to become princes and do whatever they want.

The Demon Palace has an idealistic plan. It wants to transform all humans into demons in order to fundamentally solve human problems.

Originally, Chu Wujiang thought that he had a strong army, with 20,000 ghost soldiers under his command, and the help of Snow Girl and others, so he could walk around Longzhou at will.

Now that he heard this madman, he suddenly felt that his power was not strong enough.

At least you need to be a real person to ensure safety.

Thinking of this, Chu Wujiang said:
[The elder should report this to the court as soon as possible, saying that the Demon Palace is causing chaos and is preparing to pollute the dragon vein.]

[No, they said they had polluted the dragon vein.]

【Finally, after our strenuous efforts, the situation was properly resolved. 】

No matter what the dream of the Demon Palace is, Chu Wujiang cooperated with the gravekeeper and Zhiping Jushi to solve the dragon vein problem, which was ultimately a great achievement.

Originally, Chu Wujiang could be satisfied with this, but now he feels a little greedy and wants to exaggerate the credit a little bit.

Elder Jing's eyes widened immediately:

[Mr. Zhiping’s side…]

Chu Wujiang smiled and said:

【Who would despise a small contribution? 】

[What this matter is, it's up to the three of us to decide.]

The selfish desires of the three great primordial spirits are very obvious and are worth taking advantage of.

Before Chu Wujiang went to Tianjing to serve as an official, he already had the temperament of a treacherous minister.

Elder Jing paced back and forth and said hesitantly:
[Lord Longcheng, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. ]

[The imperial court will also check. Last time, the grave keeper slightly exaggerated his merits, and was found out by the Imperial Astronomical Bureau. He was fined for half a year, and his spiritual rice was stopped.]

[What's more, the dragon vein of Mangshan is dead, only dead energy remains. It's a bit difficult to add some bad luck to deceive people. ]

Elder Jing said cautiously.

It turns out that you, Lao Deng, have done it a long time ago.

Chu Wujiang smiled and said:
[Don't worry, Chu has the guidance of his mentor, Taoist Mingyuan, who is good at the secret art of luck. ]

【It is easiest to leave some breath. 】

[Guaranteed to be able to conceal the inspection of the Sitianjian. 】

[Our contribution is real, we just want to exaggerate it. The court won’t mind.]

Elder Jing pondered and said:

"Everything will be subject to Lord Longcheng's arrangements."

Chu Wujiang smiled:

"Then move all the fortune and secret treasures from the big tomb up here first."
