Along with the golden light, there was a special sandalwood smell.
This sandalwood scent seemed to have the effect of sleeping.
Chu Wenhong and Chu Yue had just come into contact with each other when they felt endless fatigue.
They leaned against the wall and fell asleep together.
The surrounding fog was dispersed.
A tree trunk came over, carrying a dense aura of death and resentment.
According to the extent of the tree trunk's fall, if there were no accidents, the father and daughter of the Chu family.
He would probably turn into mud in an instant.
However, at this moment.
A hand suddenly reached out from the golden light.
His arms didn't look strong, and even looked a little weak.
Her skin was fair and her fingers were long and slender, even more delicate than a woman's hand.
However, it was just this one hand.
He raised his index finger and tapped the tree trunk lightly.
Pa--
A crisp sound echoed in the air.
The tree trunk seemed to have been hit by an invisible hammer.
Cracks appeared on the surface of the tree trunk.
In the blink of an eye.
The tree trunk directly exploded, turning into wood shavings that filled the sky and drifted down.
And that hand was also put down.
A figure walked out of the golden light.
He was wearing an ancient brocade robe and had a handsome face. There was a faint layer of incense lingering around his body.
It was Su Hen!
Or rather, it was Su Hen's City God Incense Incarnation.
However, this incarnation's strength was at the peak of the soldier level.
They could even rely on various secret techniques to suppress ordinary general-level opponents!
On the big tree.
The eyes of the child-like face were filled with shock and anger.
"You, you don't look like a shady person!"
At this moment, the entire locust tree was under the control of the He family's three brothers.
Looking at Su Hen's appearance, especially on his body, he could not sense any familiar aura.
Naturally, he could tell that this extremely handsome young man did not walk in the industry that had been passed down from ancient times.
However…
However, Su Hen did not intend to waste his breath on them.
The locust tree's aura was already close to the general level.
If he allowed it to continue growing, it would indeed be troublesome to rely on a Joss Flame incarnation.
On the Inferno side.
Su Hen stood in the Judge's Hall with his left hand behind his back. The five fingers of his right hand swayed gently.
A huge seal appeared in his palm.
It was the Yama Seal!
And in the village of Qiu Nan.
The incarnation did the same thing and formed a seal with his right hand.
The projection of the Yama Seal appeared in his palm.
At this moment, two figures in two different spaces did the same thing at the same time.
He raised his right hand and took out the Yama Seal.
It moved forward!
At Qiunan Village.
As soon as the shadow left his palm, it changed rapidly in the air.
When they arrived at the top of the locust tree.
The palm-sized Deity's Mark had grown to tens of thousands of meters in diameter!
At this moment, the entire South Hill Village and the entire locust tree were enveloped by the divine seal.
At the bottom of the Divine Seal.
The words "King Su of Qinguang" shone brightly.
On the big pagoda tree.
The young face looked at the sky.
When he saw the words " Asmodai "...
In the wilderness thousands of miles away.
The three brothers spat out blood at the same time, and their spells dissipated!
"King Qinguang?"
"The Yama King, ranked first among the Ten Yama Kings?" He Wenbo's voice changed.”
He Wenfu was even more unbearable.
His legs went limp and he collapsed to the ground.
He Wencai was a little better, but his face was as pale as paper, looking like he was about to cry.
"King Qinguang, why would the Yama King of Hell personally participate in such a mortal matter?”
"Is there some kind of connection between the City God of Jinling and King Qinguang?”
A deep sense of despair enveloped the three brothers.
Hell's Yama!
There was indeed someone in his ancestors who had defeated the City God in a battle of magic.
And it wasn't just their Master Yin Yang.
Tattoo master, back to the corpse craftsman's lineage.
Their ancestors all had powerful figures who could fight with gods.
For example, the city god, river god, mountain god, and even the ghost soldiers.
But since ancient times.
There had never been any records of it.
Humans could fight with the Yama of the Netherworld!
That was the Yama of the First Hall of Rulers!
He was a true big shot of the underworld.
In the thousands of years of Great Xia, there were countless legends about Yama.
Be it the Black and White Impermanences or the judges, they were all subordinates of Yama.
The Ten Yama Kings were not the true rulers of the underworld.
However, he could definitely be considered a top-notch noble!
How could they compete with Yama with their insignificant cultivation?
Even if he really succeeded and replaced the position of the River God of Jinling.
To Yama.
They were still just ants!
The three brothers never dreamed of it.
This matter actually involved a Yama!
"Big brother!"
He Wenfu looked at his elder brother and said in a sobbing voice,""Are we finished?"
"Big brother, I've seen those souls suffer.”
"I've seen the miserable state of the souls of South Hill Village being refined by the big locust tree.”
"The legendary eighteen levels of hell are definitely a hundred times more terrifying than that.”
"I don't want to go to hell, big brother, I don't want to go to hell!"
That's right.
He Wenfu no longer thought of resisting.
Even if he resisted, it was impossible for him to win.
Perhaps it would deepen his sins.
He Wenbo was silent.
He had deliberately sensed the aura of the seal just now.
That's right, it was the Yama Seal!
Even though that huge seal was only a phantom, the Supreme Dao aura contained within was many times more powerful than the River God Seal.
It could summon the phantom of a large seal.
This meant that the real King Qinguang Seal must have been activated somewhere.
The Yama Seal was not like the River God Seal.
No one could replace Yan Junyin.
In other words, only the true master of the Divine Seal could activate the Yama Seal!
He Wenbo felt that the blood in his body was about to freeze.
At this moment, he was hallucinating.
Under the endless Nine Nether.
There was an enormous figure that was tens of thousands of feet tall.
Wearing a royal robe and a crown, a pair of cold eyes pierced through the two worlds and stared at him!
"Let's go!"
"Let's go now!" He Wenbo's voice was hoarse.”
"Leave Grand Xia, leave this land.”
"I know. There are some places overseas that seem to be able to connect to the Underworld.”
"We must find a way to get to the Netherworld.”
"Only when we get there can we three brothers have a chance of hiding from King Qinguang!”
At this moment.
No one dared to question Big Brother's decision, nor did they need to.
He Wencai and He Wenfu only hated themselves for not growing a pair of wings.
In a single night, they could fly across mountains and rivers to reach the outer region.
And in the village of Qiu Nan.
As the three brothers gave up control.
The locust tree's consciousness gradually recovered at this moment.
"I'm hungry, I'm so hungry!"
"Grandpa, Grandpa, where are you? I'm so hungry!"
The child's voice was filled with confusion and pain.
However, it did not know.
Just now.
The He family's three brothers despised Qian Fan for being too long-winded.
He decided to control it and swallow his grandfather.
At this moment, his soul had long been digested.
In other words.
Now, Qian Fan's soul had long dissipated and he no longer existed!
Above his head, a terrifying seal was slowly pressing down.
The body of the locust tree creaked as if it would be crushed in the next moment.
Cracks appeared on the tree trunk.
A dark red substance gushed out like fresh blood.
Endless pain assaulted him.
The child-like face began to cry loudly, filled with hesitation and helplessness.
However, the speed at which the seal descended did not slow down at all.
A large amount of ghostly qi spread out from the locust tree.
On the tree crown, the dried corpses exploded like balloons.
The rest of the villagers hid in the ancestral hall.
Because there was a large locust tree blocking the way outside.
Therefore, these little ghosts weren't affected by the Yama's Seal and were still hiding in the house safely.
"It's not a good thing to continue like this.”
A ghost sighed with sorrow." That terrifying seal is about to crush the divine tree."”
"Once the Divine Tree dies, won't it be our turn?”
"At that time, everyone will be crushed by that seal until their souls scatter.”
"What divine tree?" "That's a ghost tree, a demon tree!”
With Qian Fan dead, there was no longer any aura suppression.
The resentment that these ghosts had suppressed in their hearts naturally began to vent.
They were all cursing the dead Qian Fan and the terrifying locust tree outside.
"Who cares if it's a ghost tree or a demon tree? Are these the main points?”
"What's important is, what should we do next to escape this calamity?" asked a ghost anxiously.”
As soon as he finished speaking.
None of the ghosts spoke again. All of them had looks of despair and fear.
What else could he do?
The entire village was sealed off.
He didn't even have a place to run.
If that terrifying seal won, then what awaited them would naturally be their souls being destroyed along with the locust tree.
If the locust tree won, what awaited them was to be devoured again.
In the years to come, he would suffer endless pain.
No matter which side won, it didn't make much of a difference to them.
Many times, being weak was the original sin.
Especially in this era where ghosts were gradually recovering and the world was becoming more and more chaotic.
There were only Song Zizhen and Du Xuemei.
They looked at each other and then looked in a certain direction in the distance.
South Qiu Village was about to be destroyed.
But what about Wen Hong and Xiao Yue?
Would he be lucky enough to survive, or would he follow the group of ghosts and welcome the end of his soul being scattered?
Worry was written all over his face.
However, the two old men had no choice.
He could only pray in the depths of his heart.
The big locust tree, or rather, the young soul inside the locust tree, was crying.
The trunk of the tree was lifted up into the sky, as if it wanted to withstand the huge seal.
But it was all in vain.
The majesty of Yama was definitely not something a ghost could contend against.
Even if it was just a phantom of the Yama Seal.
At the same level, it would also have a suppressive effect on ghosts.
Kacha--
As soon as they came into contact, all the tree trunks broke.
Not only did the light on the seal not dim, but it was even more intense than before.
Finally, amidst the cries of all the ghosts and the locust tree.
The divine seal fell from the sky and pressed down on the locust tree.
Bang!
The earth shook.
A terrifying sound echoed in the surrounding mountains.
There was no smoke or dust.
That was because it was originally a projection of a large seal, and it dealt with things at the soul level.
For example, right now.
The big locust tree seemed to have almost no damage.
It was just that from the size that covered the entire village before, it had regressed to the size of an ordinary locust tree.
It was still in the center of the village.
However, the soul of the child inside the locust tree had already dissipated.
All the death qi, resentment, and ghost qi also disappeared.
It was completely suppressed by the divine seal.
Moreover, the entire locust tree was showing signs of decline.
In a few years, it would probably wither and die.
Three dark auras spread out from the locust tree.
The Joss Flame Incarnation gently waved his hand, and the three auras were retracted into his palm.
The aura dissipated.
Su Hen, who was in the Underworld Judge Hall, finally opened his eyes.
A bright light flashed in his eyes.
"I found you."
He murmured softly, his voice echoing out of the hall."Black and White Ghosts!"
The door was pushed open.
Two figures, one in black and one in white, walked in and cupped their hands at the table in front of them."Greetings, Milord!"
"Go over here and capture the souls of those three people.”
Su Hen waved his hand, and the three auras were directly transformed by his Dharmic powers, revealing the figures of the three Mr. Yin Yang.
"This subordinate will obey!"
The Black and White Ghosts cupped their hands and left the hall.
Behind the seal.
Qiunan Village regained its peace.
All the sneaky things and the locust tree demon were silent.
He didn't know how much time had passed.
Until noon.
Only then did the father and daughter slowly wake up by the wall.
"Where is this place?"
Chu Wenhong opened his eyes in a daze.
When he saw where he was, he could not help but be stunned.
Chu Yue also looked like she was at a loss.
The Joss Flame Incarnation had once again turned into a Shing Wong accessory and was on her neck.
Therefore, the two of them did not see Su Hen's figure.
He wasn't sure what exactly happened.
At this moment, in their eyes, there was a dilapidated house.
From the corners of the walls, one could vaguely tell that this was Song Zizhen's home.
A few years ago, Chu Wenhong had even spent a lot of effort to help them repair it.
However, at this moment, the house had already turned into ruins.
The wooden door was missing and the window was broken.
Pillars that had fallen from the beams were piled up everywhere.
The wall was covered in charred marks.
It was as if a fire had broken out in this house not long ago.
"Are you alright?"
Chu Wenhong quickly regained his senses and looked worriedly at his daughter.
"I'm fine." Chu Yue had already stood up.
He looked around and said,"I keep feeling that this village is different from before."”
"The uneasiness lingering in my heart has also begun to dissipate.”
She helped her father up.
The two of them walked out of the dilapidated house together.
In Qiu Nan Village, the fog had already begun to dissipate, retreating towards the mountains.
It looked like it would only take another half an hour at most.
The fog on the mountain would also dissipate.
If nothing unexpected happened, it meant that they had finally escaped death.
He could finally leave this damned place!
Chu Wenhong swore in his heart.
He was lucky enough to survive this time. In the future, he would never go to any remote mountain village again.
Instead, he stayed in Jin Ling City until he died of old age.
When they saw the current scene in Qiu Nan Village.
Both father and daughter were stunned on the spot.
The thick smell of coal permeated the air.
The land was pitch black.
All the surrounding houses were charred black.
Now, only ruins were left.
There was not a single good house in sight.
Even the ancestral hall was in tatters, and the walls were covered in charred marks.
The entire South Qiu Village seemed to have experienced a great fire.
No family could escape this fire!
Chu Yue thought of her grandparents.
Could it be that they had also lost their lives in this fire?
Then how did this fire start?
Why couldn't anyone escape?
After all, South Hill Village was surrounded by mountains.
The mountain was wet all year round, and the soil was moist. The fire in the village should not have ignited the entire mountain.
Moreover, she had also gone up the mountain with Chu Wenhong before.
There were no signs of fire.
In other words, this fire was only limited to South Qiu Village.
Just as Chu Yue was thinking.
In the ancestral hall in the distance.
Suddenly, a small figure flashed past.
"Dad!"
Chu Yue cried out in shock and took a few steps back. She gripped the Shing Wong accessory around her neck with both hands.
The accessory emitted a faint sandalwood fragrance, making her feel a little at ease.
At this moment, Chu Wenhong clearly saw that small figure.
However, he did not show any fear.
That was because he looked like an ordinary child.
The child was about six or seven years old and wore tattered clothes.
He had a crew cut and was only about the height of his knees.
He looked malnourished.
At this moment, he was hiding behind the door of the ancestral hall, revealing half of his face as he looked at Chu Wenhong.
Her eyes were pure, but there was also some curiosity and fear towards strangers.
After a while.
Chu Yue walked out as well.
Because this child did not look like a ferocious ghost.
Although his body was in a smoke-like state, it seemed that he was also a soul.
However, it did not cause any fear in people.
"Hey, you!"
The Shing Wong accessory on her neck made Chu Yue feel a little excited.
She walked forward and wanted to ask.
From the looks of it, the child should also be a villager from Qiu Nan Village. Perhaps he knew something.
Regarding the current situation, the father and daughter of the Chu family were really confused.
They only remembered.
He was trapped in the fog and could not walk out of the village no matter what.
Helplessly, he could only return to Song Zizhen's house for the time being.
As a result, the fog invaded the village.
In the fog, all the villagers turned into ghosts, including Song Zizhen and the other two elders.
Then, the big locust tree grew rapidly.
Then, it devoured everything in the village, not even the bricks and tiles.
Finally, he fainted and lost consciousness.
When he woke up again.
The ghosts were gone, and so was the locust tree.
The entire village looked as if it had suffered a serious fire.
However…
Chu Yue had just spoken.
The child seemed to have been frightened.
He ran away from the ancestral hall.
Chu Yue was stunned. For a moment, she did not know how to react.
However, the child stopped in the distance.
Then, he turned around and stared straight at her.
"He seems to be taking us somewhere.”Chu Yue said uncertainly.?
Chu Wenhong frowned and pondered for a while.
Finally, he said,"Let's go and take a look."”
"Anyway, the fog hasn't dispersed yet, so we can't leave the village for the time being.”
Chu Yue nodded.
The two of them followed behind the child.
The ghost of the child ran all the way and stopped to wait for them.
As expected, it was as if he was leading the way.
Not long after, the big locust tree appeared in their sight.
He saw the terrifying locust tree again.
Chu Wenhong and Chu Yue's expressions were not too good.
The scene of the locust tree being like a demon had left a huge psychological trauma on them.
The only thing that made him feel at ease was that…
At this moment, the locust tree was no longer moving.
The corpse on the tree crown also disappeared without a trace.
The child turned around and looked at them.
Then, he ran towards the big locust tree and finally disappeared into the tree roots.
The two of them approached carefully.
The big locust tree was completely dead.
A deathly aura spread out from the big tree.
On the tree trunk, there was a child's face.
It was exactly the same as the child who had led the way just now.
He looked at the ground under the tree.
The soil was loose, and something seemed to be vaguely visible.
Chu Yue moved closer to observe carefully.
She suddenly screamed and took a few steps back.
It was a human palm!
At this moment, half of the palm was outside the soil. The flesh on it had already rotted, revealing a ghastly white bone.
"Peaches as demons, willows summon souls, and people buried under the big locust tree."
Chu Wenhong repeated this ballad.
Suddenly, he said softly,"Xiaoyue."”
"It's very likely that your grandparents 'bodies are buried under this big locust tree!”
This also explained their previous doubts.
Why couldn't they find a single villager's corpse after searching the entire village?
After all, according to the traces of the fire.
It was impossible to reach the point where humans would completely evaporate.
It was impossible for everyone to be unscathed from such a huge flame.
Now, it seemed that there were villagers who died.
Instead, it was the dead villagers who were buried under this big locust tree!
The two of them returned to the village and found two shovels that were barely usable.
Then, he started digging at that spot.
After all, the ghosts in the village had disappeared, and the big locust tree seemed to have died completely.
The Shing Wong accessory did not give any reaction either.
This meant that there should be no danger nearby.
The loose soil was quickly dug away.
A huge pit appeared in front of them.
When he saw the scene in the pit clearly.
Chu Yue's face suddenly turned pale. She rushed into the distance and lay on the ground, retching.
Chu Wenhong's expression was also very ugly.
He felt waves of sour water gushing out of his stomach.
It took a lot of effort to suppress his disgusting emotions.
Corpses!
Just as Chu Wenhong had guessed.
The corpses of the villagers were indeed buried in the big locust tree.
However, it was not just one or two.
It was the corpses of nearly a thousand people in the entire South Qiu Village that were piled up here!
They all looked like they died in the fire.
His flesh was charred black.
Everyone's face was still filled with fear and pain before they died.
A large number of tree roots were densely packed, like a spider web, wrapping up these corpses.
The smaller roots were like straws that were connected to the corpses.
It was constantly snatching the nutrients from the corpse to allow the locust tree to grow!
No wonder.
This large locust tree looked dark red in color and emitted an unpleasant rancid smell.
Originally, Chu Wenhong's goal was to…
They wanted to find Song Zizhen and Du Xuemei's bodies.
No matter what, since the crisis had already come into contact.
Then he would try to find the bodies of the two elders, deal with them briefly, and bring them back to Jinling for burial.
In this way, he would be able to answer to Xiaoyue's mother.
However, looking at the scene in the huge pit at this moment...
Thousands of corpses were piled up together, almost fusing into one.
Even if Chu Wenhong was beaten to death, he wouldn't go down and search for the two old men one by one.
The stench spread along the pit.
Chu Yue felt like she was about to vomit.
"What should I do?"
Chu Wenhong's voice was hoarse.
Just as the two of them were silent.
The small City God accessory suddenly emitted waves of green smoke.
The smoke carried a scent of sandalwood and was blown into the pit by the breeze.
He had just come into contact with the corpses in the pit.
The green smoke changed and turned into a golden flame.
At this moment, flames filled the crater.
The golden pillar of fire even rose to a height of more than ten meters, enveloping the entire locust tree.
A large amount of black gas rushed into the sky and was blown away by the breeze.
Those corpses were also quickly turned into ashes in the golden flames.
To them, this was actually a great relief.
As expected, within the golden flames.
An illusory figure appeared.
"Uncle Li?" Chu Wenhong recognized the figure. It was a member of Qiu Nan Village.
At that moment, the old man called Uncle Li bowed deeply to Chu Yue.
Or rather, he bowed deeply to the Shing Wong accessory.
Then, he turned around and disappeared in the golden flames.
