Ragnarok is born

Xu Zhichang let out a groan, and said in surprise, "You mean, those characters on the opposite side are the reincarnation of the demon king who escaped back then?"

"No wonder you have known for a long time that their big formation is not in a complete state?"

Xu Zhichang sighed secretly.

He thought to himself that with Lin Lingsu's supernatural powers, he already knew the origins of these characters who were recruited by the emperor to Bianliang City in Tokyo.

And he had talked about it with Chao Gai in private, so Chao Gai didn't panic when he was in trouble.

On the contrary, his own performance was a little unsatisfactory, not in line with the settings of the seniors, and he wondered if he would be looked down upon by Chao Gai because of this?

After Xu Zhichang was reminded by Chao Gai, Fayan swept away, and suddenly found that there was a big star in the void behind the dull-looking figures hidden behind the thick black mist, looming.

These stars rotated slowly, radiating black star power outwards, some of them quietly submerged into the bodies of different people, and some of them disappeared into the void, connecting with each other, forming a large formation covering the entire imperial city.

Seeing this situation, Xu Zhichang suddenly realized.

One sixty years ago, the incident of one hundred and eight demon kings escaped from Longhu Mountain and Tiangangdisha once caused an uproar in the monastic circle.

However, Xu Zhichang was not yet born at that time, so he did not personally hear about the major event that made many ascetics feel terrified.

Even though Xu Zhichang later became a Taoist, it was just that he was not a true disciple of the Taoist sect, but just a heretic. He didn't know much about certain news, and occasionally heard a word or two from other people, but he would forget it in the blink of an eye.

One Jiazi's time can change a lot. The ascetics from all walks of life once thought that the heavenly gang and earth evil were scourges, and the one hundred and eight demon kings did not show up for a long time, and they were gradually submerged in the long river of time.

Xu Zhichang came to Bianliang City, Tokyo, and transformed himself into a Taoist favored by the emperor Zhao Ji. When he discovered the classics in the royal collection, he once saw the records of the Renzong Dynasty, but kept secret about it.

When he talked with the Taoist officials of the Royal Taoist Temple, he occasionally mentioned this matter, but those Taoist officials just laughed it off.

That's why Xu Zhichang also felt that the escape of the Demon King back then might just be a rumour, an illusory rumor.

How could he have thought that he would hear this from Chao Gai again today, and would face off against the reincarnations of those demon kings in person?

Xu Zhichang didn't know anything about the abilities possessed by Tiangangdisha, the one hundred and eight demon kings who escaped from Longhu Mountain back then.

I just feel that being able to be treated seriously by Longhushan has caused a great sensation in the world of cultivation.

It is obvious that these demons are not comparable to the simple demons and ghosts that they encountered when they were walking in the rivers and lakes.

Just looking at the incomplete formation set up by the opponent at the moment, already has such astonishing power, it is enough to see how powerful they are.

He secretly sighed, and he didn't know, if it was Tiangangdisha, and all one hundred and eight demon kings were present, what kind of astonishing sensation would it cause?

It's no wonder that when the entire monastic community learned that the [-] demon kings had escaped from Tiangangdisha, almost most of the ascetics rushed out and searched frantically everywhere in the world, but in the end they found nothing, so they let it go.

Unexpectedly, after one year, he became the first enemy of the one hundred and eight devils after their reincarnation.

What an honor!

Chao Gai saw that Xu Zhichang was in a trance, forgetting that he was in a dangerous situation, and hurriedly reminded, "Fellow Daoist, don't be careless."

"The safety of me and the servant next to me rests on you, Fellow Daoist, and please use your heart to break through the formation..."

Chao Gai didn't know Liang Shicheng's real identity, but he could tell that Liang Shicheng's obvious eunuch status was to vaguely call him "internal servant".

During the Sui Dynasty, the Ministry of Internal Affairs was set up to take charge of the internal affairs of the palace.

Although to a certain extent, some ordinary scholars will also be adopted, but the most important ones are the positions set up for eunuchs.

The Tang Dynasty continued to use the system of the Sui Dynasty, without any major changes, but all this position was dedicated to eunuchs.

In the Song Dynasty, two departments, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Internal Affairs, were added, called Front and Front Provinces, especially the former.

The eunuchs serving in the palace belonged to the Ministry of Internal Affairs; the eunuchs serving in the palace belonged to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

In the two provinces before and after, there are many different official positions such as internal servants, palace head internal servants, high-ranking internal servants, and high-ranking internal servants.

People in the Song Dynasty saw that no matter what rank of eunuchs in the palace, they all had the title of "internal servant", so they directly called eunuchs as internal servants.

This is just a general title, regardless of the rank of the eunuch, but how can Liang Shicheng manage so much now?

After listening to Chao Gai's reminder to Xu Zhichang, he was even more grateful, and felt that Chao Gai was the most benevolent and righteous to him.

No matter when it is, I never forget to remind Xu Zhichang not to abandon our family and ignore it.

Such benevolent behavior, plus hearing from Xu Zhichang, he is still a very useful character next to the "Lin Xianjia".

The future is simply limitless.

No matter what, as long as he successfully escaped from the predicament this time, Liang Shicheng felt that it was necessary for him to remind the officials in front of them, so that the attention of the officials should be shifted to "Lin Xianjia".

Look at the group of people recruited by the government, I came to inspect their situation according to the order, how could I know that they didn't say a word, but turned against me instead?

Such ignorant guys are simply useless.

Liang Shicheng had already made up his mind that as long as he returned to the palace, he would ruthlessly submit a book to the officials.

Xu Zhichang took out a sapphire-colored paintbrush from his bosom, smiled slightly at Chao Gai, and said, "Fellow Daoist, let's look at the poor Daoist's methods."

With the paintbrush in his hand, he stroked lightly towards the void. From the tip of the sapphire-colored paintbrush, mana gushed out, directly depicting white lights visible to the naked eye in the void, forming the appearance of an ordinary family's door.

Liang Shicheng stared dumbfounded at Xu Zhichang's astonishing technique. He had heard that Xu Zhichang's painting skills were unrivaled. Even Zhao Ji, an official with extraordinary painting talent, praised Xu Zhichang's painting skills.

Master Liang originally thought that this was just a way of saying that the good-for-nothings deliberately flattered Xu Zhichang in order to make Xu Zhichang famous.

Unexpectedly, what Xu Zhichang saw with his own eyes today was just a few simple strokes against the void.

Not only did he draw a lifelike door, but he also reached out and held the doorknob, trying to open the door he had drawn.

With a sound of "Yeah", under Liang Shicheng's incredulous eyes, Xu Zhichang actually opened the portal in the void.

Then he dragged Liang Shicheng and Chao Gai out of the void portal in a hurry, and then closed the gate again with a bang.

Black air billowed in the void, but the portal to the void painted by Xu Zhichang had turned into a wisp of smoke and melted directly into the void.

The black air swept across the void, rolling back and forth aimlessly.

Standing on the bridge of Xiangguo Temple, looking at the majestic and magnificent Xiangguo Temple, Chao Gai looked in a trance.

He had already tried his best to think about Xu Zhichang's strength, but he still didn't expect that he still underestimated Xu Zhichang.

From Chao Gai's point of view, in the face of Wu Yong, Song Jiang and at least 60 other gods, many of the [-] demon kings joined forces to form a large formation.

Even with his own guidance, with Xu Zhichang's strength, if he wants to get out of trouble, it will take at least a long time.

Who would have expected that Xu Zhichang would successfully lead him and Liang Shicheng out of the big formation with just one simple move.

Chao Gai recalled how he got out of trouble, and couldn't help admiring Xu Zhichang, "Brother Dao's methods are really incredible."

"This kind of practice of painting into Taoism is amazing."

Liang Shicheng on the side also agreed.

Chao Gai's heartfelt praise was just talking about what made Xu Zhichang feel itchy and the most proud thing in his life.

Xu Zhichang did not come from an authentic Taoist sect, but he studied it painstakingly by relying on an ancient practice book that he obtained by accident.

Only then did he step into the gate of the practice world and become a monk.

From this point of view, Xu Zhichang, who succeeded in the end, was countless times luckier than the countless people who trained themselves to the point of becoming obsessed, crippled, and dead in front of a hard-to-distinguishable practice book.

After he succeeded in cultivation, he spent a period of time in the practice world. After many blows, he deeply felt that he lacked the means to deal with the enemy.

Then, fortunately, from the aspect of painting that he is proficient in, he created it without a teacher, a set of quite mysterious magical powers.

Chao Gai praised Xu Zhichang for his astonishing skills, "using painting to enter Taoism", and happened to meet Xu Zhichang's favorite place, which immediately made him feel ecstatic.

Pedestrians on the Xiangguo Temple Bridge came and went in an endless stream, without noticing the three perfect people as if a drop of water melted into the sea.

Liang Shicheng raised his hand in a daze, put it under his eyelids, and carefully looked at his pale, sweaty palm. He still couldn't believe what he had just seen with his own eyes.

As one of the most favored eunuchs in front of Zhao Ji, Liang Shicheng also knew that Xu Zhichang would often enter the palace to meet Zhao Ji.

Liang Shicheng himself served Zhao Ji several times, and saw with his own eyes that this smiling Taoist, like a rich man, and Zhao Ji, who is proficient in calligraphy and painting, discussed painting skills with each other and argued endlessly.

Although Zhao Ji is better at flowers and birds, Xu Zhichang is proficient in religious paintings because he is a monk.

Xu Zhichang is able to paint according to Taoist classic fairy tales, with comprehensive materials, complete structure and full of artistry.

Later, his paintings were even included in the "Xuanhe Painting Book", a record book of paintings collected by the court, which was compiled under the official auspices.

You know, even Zhang Zeduan, the author of "Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival", which was hailed as one of China's top ten famous paintings by later generations, had already created this amazing masterpiece ten years ago, and Zhao Ji couldn't wait to take it as his own. Own.

However, Zhang Zeduan's name was not included in "Xuanhe Painting Book", which shows Zhao Ji's love for Xu Zhichang.

Although it is said that the people included in "Xuanhe Painting Book" are good and bad, such as Tong Guan can be selected, it is naturally because of the great military achievements of this great eunuch, and the relationship with Emperor Huizong Zhao Ji is very close.

Although there are rumors that Tong Guan's landscape paintings are also considered unique, which is why they were able to be favored by Huizong Zhao Ji and were reused by the emperor.

But Liang Shicheng knew that the other party was just like him, but at the level of half a barrel of water. Those who praised Tong Guan were the ones who really flattered Tong Guan, not the really good paintings like Xu Zhichang. technology.

Just now Xu Zhichang drew a lifelike portal in the void with a pen, and then used this "void portal" that appeared out of nothing.

He brought himself and another person across the void, from the Imperial City Division, directly to the Xiangguo Temple Bridge.

Such a miraculous method made Liang Shicheng feel unbelievable, but at the same time he was very afraid of Xu Zhichang.

Liang Shicheng quietly glanced at Xu Zhichang, thinking to himself that if this person wants to fight against him, he only needs to use the amazing method just now, and he can directly enter the bedroom where I live in his own home.

This kind of method that can be called impossible to guard against is simply an excellent ability to kill people and steal goods, which few people in the world can match.

Liang Shicheng suddenly felt that he couldn't see through it, like Xu Zhichang who was always smiling like a rich man.

There are many painters with outstanding painting skills in the world, but Xu Zhichang's ability to be favored by officials is obviously not just because of his painting skills.

First of all, he is a high-level ascetic, and then he has many common languages ​​with officials in terms of painting skills.

Xu Zhichang unfolded his mental power, and found that in the direction of Huangchengsi in the distance, the black air that had enveloped the entire area had already faded away like a tide.

Almost when he had just sensed something, the Imperial City Division had already returned to its original calm, and there was no slightest abnormality.

Just now when the three of them were in the Imperial City Division, they encountered Wu Yong, Song Jiang and other heaven and earth evil spirits, and the attack of one hundred and eight demon kings, it was like an illusory dream.

Chao Gai on the other side also showed a look of astonishment.

After Chao Gai and Xu Zhichang glanced at each other, they came up with an incredible idea in no particular order.

Looking at Wu Yong, Song Jiang, and other people's behavior, they are like puppets being manipulated by others. Obviously, it is not their own will to attack the three of them rashly.

So, who is the person behind the scenes hiding behind this incident?

The emperor summoned Wu Yong, Song Jiang and others to Bianliang City, Tokyo, not for no reason, and there must be a special purpose.

If the Son of Heaven knows the true identity of Wu Yong, Song Jiang and other Tiangang Disha [-] demon kings, does it mean that he is the black hand who controls Wu Yong and Song Jiang and others?

But the Son of Heaven is the bell of a country's luck, and it is in conflict with supernatural powers. How could he have the means to control Wu Yong, Song Jiang and others?

Unless, the emperor has other helpers with strange means...

So who will this helper be?

The figure of Lin Lingsu suddenly appeared in the minds of the two, and then they sighed secretly at the same time, feeling extremely distressed.

If Lin Lingsu is really in it, playing the role of the man behind the scenes controlling Wu Yong, Song Jiang and others, it will be the real trouble.

Not to mention other things, just relying on Lin Lingsu's super strength, it far surpassed the combination of the two of them.

If Lin Lingsu was really in charge just now, then whether Chao Gai, Xu Zhichang, and Liang Shicheng can escape smoothly is a question.

Xu Zhichang felt that with Lin Lingsu's arrogance and domineering attitude, he didn't even care about the emperor's recruitment, so he shouldn't be secretly doing things for the emperor.

And Chao Gai even thought that if Lin Lingsu hadn't reminded himself in advance, the reincarnation of Gongsun Sheng, Wu Yong, Song Jiang and other gods, the reincarnation of one hundred and eight demon kings, would naturally interact with him and tell many secrets.

Then it is impossible for him to think that the number of Tiangangdisha and [-] demon lords gathered in the Imperial City Department is not complete.

There was no chance to remind Xu Zhichang, so that the other party would be aware of the flaws in the siege formation, so that he could successfully escape with himself.

But what if?

If Lin Lingsu really had nothing to do with the emperor, then why did he travel all the way to Bianliang City, Tokyo?

When thinking of this, Chao Gai's thoughts spread out even more, and he thought of the miniature "Black Dragon".

Maybe Lin Lingsu has nothing to doubt, but the miniature "Black Dragon" is full of doubts.

Both he and Lin Lingsu were carried by miniature "black dragons" and flew directly from Shandong to Bianliang City in Tokyo.

According to Chao Gai's speculation, the miniature "Black Dragon", or the "Tianzun" behind the miniature "Black Dragon", is himself hiding in Bianliang City, Tokyo.

Lin Lingsu acted decisively, snatched herself away, and was restrained by the mini "black dragon" in the blink of an eye, becoming the subordinate of the mini "black dragon".

Chao Gai once secretly laughed at this, thinking that Lin Lingsu was just bullying and fearing the tough, and would kneel down and surrender when he met someone more tyrannical than him.

Now think about it, if the miniature "Black Dragon" forced Lin Lingsu and told Lin Lingsu all the methods used to control Wu Yong, Song Jiang and others, then it was the Imperial City Secretary who attacked him and Xu Zhichang just now?
