Chapter 429 What Is Dongxi?
At this moment, a black smoke slowly rose from the withered potted plants on the windowsill, condensing into a shadow in military uniform.
Jiang Lin frowned, pointed at the shadow with the Hell Messenger Token, and a dark yellow card similar to Jin Zihong's noble card appeared on the token.
The name of the shadow was written on the card-
Jin Xiuhong.
"Jin Xiuhong?" Jiang Lin frowned slightly, looked at Lin Ge on the side and said: "It seems that you are right, it is Jin Zihong's brother Jin Xiuhong who has a problem!"
After that, Jiang Lin looked at the shadow in front and asked: "Jin Xiuhong, answer me, how did you die?"
As a family member of a noble, it doesn't make sense to die one after another shortly after the noble died, not to mention that the resentment is so heavy.
It is conceivable how much injustice Jin Xiuhong suffered!
However, in the face of Jiang Lin's questioning, Jin Xiuhong did not answer, but his figure flashed, and he had turned into a black afterimage and flew out of the window.
"Chase! Don't let him run away!" Jiang Lin said, and he also turned into a shadow and chased out of the window.
"So fast?" Lin Ge stood in front of the window, looking at the two black shadows that had disappeared in the distance, and suddenly felt that the hell messenger of the Korean country was not without merit.
Jin Xiuhong's resentment was so great, and his yin energy was so heavy that a layer of ice would form on the roofs, electric poles and wires, and roads wherever he flew over.
Jiang Lin summoned a sword of the hell messenger that looked like condensed lava. Although this sword is the standard weapon of the hell messenger in the underworld of the Korean country, it can cut off the evil spirits of the wronged souls and is specifically designed to defeat negative demons and monsters.
Although it is a weapon that is naturally resistant to ghosts, it must be cut in the right place. Unfortunately, Jin Xiuhong's speed was too fast. Jiang Lin chased all the way with a long sword in his hand, but he didn't hit a single blow!
At this moment, a shadow suddenly passed by and blocked Jin Xiuhong's front. Before Jin Xiuhong could react, a huge two-handed hammer suddenly smashed towards him.
Bang!
Jin Xiuhong was smashed into the ground. As a soul, he was about to sink into the ground. With a "swoosh" sound of a sword, a black sword fell from the sky and forced Jin Xiuhong out of the ground.
Jin Xiuhong dodged the black sword, but was blocked in the middle of the road by Lin Ge and Jiang Lin.
"Hey, have you run enough? The cat and mouse game should be stopped in moderation..." Lin Ge raised his hand, with lightning flashing on his fingertips. As long as Jin Xiuhong dared to run, he would not mind being struck by a thunderbolt.
Jin Xiuhong looked a little strange at this time. He was still wearing the camouflage uniform, but because of the heavy evil spirit, the whole person was surrounded by a strange black fog.
The most terrifying thing was that he was like a clay man, and the skin on his face kept falling like mud, which looked like the resurrected Terracotta Warriors in a certain movie.
"Ah!"
At this time, a scream suddenly came from the side. An old man with gray hair holding a wash basin walked out of the old house. He saw the three people confronting each other and fell to the ground in fear. The wash basin in his hand was also overturned, and the water was spilled all over the ground.
Lin Ge and Jiang Lin looked at the old man's kung fu, and Jin Xiuhong suddenly turned into a black shadow and merged into the ground and disappeared.
"Damn it!" Jiang Lin cursed inwardly and flew into the air, trying to find Jin Xiuhong's trace from the air.
The old man who suddenly appeared looked at Lin Ge tremblingly and murmured: "I, I may be dying soon. I actually saw the messenger of hell!"
At this time, a little boy with a watermelon head ran out from the side and hugged the old man's feet: "I told you not to say that kind of thing, grandpa, you won't die, you won't die!"
...
At the same time, the underworld.
Nita, Li Dechun, Jie Yuanmai and Jin Zihong came to the last jungle before the lying hell. After walking for a few hours, they rested by the forest.
Li Dechun sat on a wooden stake, closed his eyes and formed a seal, connecting to the information database through secret methods to search for clues related to the wronged souls summoned by Jin Zihong and the accusations of the next hell.
Nita and Jie Yuanmai guarded one direction respectively to prevent more terrifying hell monsters from attacking the nobleman.
At this time, Jin Zihong was worried about his mother's safety. While Nita and Jie Yuanmai were not paying attention, he secretly ran to Li Dechun's side, took off his blindfold, and gently shook Li Dechun: "Excuse me... Excuse me, have you still not found any news about my mother?"
Jie Yuanmai was standing in the distance observing the rapidly changing night sky, and couldn't help but murmured: "Time is changing faster and faster. It seems that the influence of this wronged soul is quite large."
Jin Zihong saw that Li Dechun didn't answer and still closed her eyes as if she was asleep, so he gently shook her again: "Messenger, wake up."
Jie Yuanmai heard the movement here and couldn't help but turn back and complain: "Don't wake her up, she is not sleeping. She is checking your accusations in the next hell. Wait, where is your blindfold? Why take it off? Put it on quickly, you idiot, do you want to kill us?"
"Here we are!" At this time, Nita, who was standing at the exit of the jungle, said.
Xie Yuanmai asked in confusion, "What's coming?"
Before he finished speaking, he heard a roar of monsters coming from the jungle, and then a group of hell soul-eating dogs and skinny, distorted human-shaped hungry ghosts slowly walked out of the jungle.
Seeing so many ghosts, Xie Yuanmai swallowed his saliva, took out his two swords and said to Jin Zihong, "Wake up Dechun, let's get out of here quickly! Damn it! The two most capable fighters are not here, we are really going to be killed by you, I think you are not a noble person, but a troublemaker!"
However, even if Jie Yuanmai wanted to take Jin Zihong away, he couldn't. The moment Jin Zihong took off his blindfold, the ghosts lurking in the jungle smelled him again and completely surrounded them.
At this moment, Nita raised her hand and twitched, and a burning chain whipped out a wave of fire. Her whole body also burned and turned into the Ghost Rider.
"Wow, go ahead, my mother, what is this?" Jie Yuanmai jumped back in fright. It was not his fault for making a fuss, but Nita's change was so amazing.
Her flaming hair and eyes burning with flames added a strange allure to her already good appearance.
The most important thing is that after she transformed, a wave of fire formed under her feet and instantly ignited the plants at the entrance of the jungle, forming a heat wave that engulfed the surrounding ghosts and monsters.
Before he even took action, a large number of ghosts were burned to death!
"...Uh." Jie Yuanmai didn't know how to describe his mood at this time. He thought that if the two most powerful ones were gone, he would definitely fall into a big crisis in this situation.
Result, that's it?
"Your current generation of interns are so ridiculously strong. How can we, the older generation, survive? We might as well just go on internships!" Jie Yuanmai couldn't help complaining.
Li Dechun said: "Stop talking and go help. Look at the monsters around you... No matter how powerful she is, she can't kill so many!"
"You know so much, I won't be able to help you at all. Let's go, we'd better leave while the interns are dragging the monsters!" Jie Yuanmai said.
At this moment, a strong wind suddenly blew up in the jungle, blowing out the flames of Nita's hell and driving away the surrounding ghosts.
I saw King Yama, who had previously rescued King Chu Jiang, walking out of the jungle with two ghost general followers, standing on the edge of the mountain wall, looking at Nita and others at the exit below.
"Oh? Hell's will-o'-the-wisp?" King Yama glanced at Nita and said with interest.
Nita didn't answer, but Jie Yuanmai quickly patted Jin Zihong and Li Dechun with his hand, and reminded them in a low voice: "Lower your head, quickly bow your head."
King Yama withdrew his gaze, looked at the confused Jin Zihong, and said solemnly: "The soul of the dead is dead, why do you still look like you want to die?"
Li Dechun said quickly: "King Yama, he is a righteous man who has died once in hundreds of years, the noble Jin Zihong."
The so-called "noble person" refers to the model deceased who always wanted to help or consider others and lived a righteous life. And this "idea" was proposed by King Yama.
"The righteous dead who only meet once in hundreds of years actually attract the ghosts of the dead to cause trouble in the underworld?" King Yama raised his eyebrows and asked.
Li Dechun said: "Reporting to King Yama, regarding this matter, Captain Jiang Lin and the intern have rushed to the underworld to investigate."
"How to punish wronged souls?" King Yama asked.
Jieyuanmai replied: "Burn the body immediately and annihilate the soul. It will never disturb the order of the world. Please don't worry!"
When Nita heard this, she looked at Xie Yuanmai with a strange expression. Although she was once a witch, she was not familiar with the formal rules of the underworld. But I have never eaten pork and I have seen pigs run away, let alone Lin Ge, the "judge" beside me. According to the process of the appearance of wronged souls in the heaven and the underworld, the grievances are generally washed away, the grievances and evil spirits are purified, and the souls are sent to the afterlife.
It would be better for Bang Country to just burn the corpses and destroy the souls?
Are you the messengers of the underworld or the accomplices of evil?
"No! Absolutely not!" Jin Zihong roared: "If you dare to touch my mother's hair, I will never let you go!"
Jie Yuanmai was immediately frightened when he saw that Jin Zihong dared to offend King Yama.
When Nita saw this scene, her expression was a little subtle, and she sighed in her heart that it was a good thing that someone was not here, otherwise she would have had a lot to complain about.
For example, "You are already dead", "He is the biggest among the dead".
King Yama directly ignored Jin Zihong's anger and said calmly: "Tell Jiang Lin to resolve the matter of wronged souls as soon as possible without affecting the underworld and the earth."
"Yes!" Jie Yuanmai and Li Dechun responded quickly.
As soon as King Yama finished speaking, he and his two ghost generals turned into smoke and disappeared.
Nita looked at the place where King Yama disappeared and frowned. She felt that the timing of King Yama's two appearances was too coincidental. It felt like he had been watching every move of their team.
For safety reasons, Nita immediately told Lin Ge about the appearance of King Yama through the communicator.
Lin Ge and Jiang Lin had lost track of Jin Xiuhong at this time, and were debating whether to continue searching for clues by going back in time, or to go directly to the place where Jin Xiuhong served as a soldier.
Jiang Lin saw Lin Ge connected to the communicator and looked a little strange, so he asked, "Something happened in the underworld?"
Lin Ge explained the situation where Jin Zihong took off his blindfold without authorization and attracted ghosts, and how King Yama appeared "in time" to save the day.
"... Deal with the wronged souls as soon as possible?" Jiang Lin frowned when he heard King Yama's instructions, wondering where to start.
Lin Ge asked curiously: "Is this the kind of thing you care about? Why should King Yama, who is so busy with affairs, care so much about our team's every move?"
Jiang Lin was stunned when Lin Ge reminded him like this. Yes, even if Jin Zihong is a noble person, there is no need for King Yama to keep an eye on him personally, right?
Could it be...that there's something special about that kid?
"And... what's going on with this old man?" Lin Ge looked at the old passerby who was paralyzed with fear and the little boy and asked.
Jiang Lin looked at the old man who suddenly broke in and caused Jin Xiuhong to take the opportunity to run away, frowning: "Strange, except for us who showed up on our own initiative, ordinary people should not be able to see us. Unless... he is a dying person who has been summoned by the underworld. But if he has been summoned by the underworld, the messenger of hell should have taken him away at this time, why would he stay in the human world?"
Lin Ge's first reaction after hearing this was "branch line", after all, he has not seen the movie "Along with the Gods", and the plot is all told by Nita.
The second is that this old man may have some unknown secrets, or he may be a hidden boss, otherwise he would not be able to see the messenger of hell.
And it's okay for the old man to see them, after all, his age is there, and it's not an exaggeration to say that he is a "dying person", but the child... can actually see the previous Jin Xiuhong and Jiang Lin in the pursuit state, which is a bit unreasonable.
Lin Ge thought for a moment and said to Jiang Lin: "I think there is a high chance that Jin Xiuhong has an accident in the military camp. You take this yellow talisman to the military camp to investigate. I can sense your location and then fly directly to find you. As for the old man, I will send him back and try to find out why he can see the messenger of hell."
"Okay."
Jiang Lin thought that this arrangement was indeed very appropriate. If the old man was on the list missed by the underworld, it would be equivalent to a major accident and must be resolved as soon as possible.
Jiang Lin used time reversal and escaped into the shadow. Lin Ge walked towards the old man and the child and said kindly: "Old man, don't be afraid. We are messengers of hell, not evil ghosts who eat people. Have you seen other messengers of hell before? Why can you see us?"
The old man and the little boy looked at each other and shook their heads.
"Sir, we have never seen the messenger of hell... We have only heard rumors that those who have seen the messenger of hell are dying. The dead are led to the underworld by the sir and reincarnated. Just now, I saw your heroic figures chasing the evil ghosts, which reminded me of the legend of the messenger of hell." The old man explained.
Lin Ge smiled slightly: "I am really sorry, my colleague is reckless and did not notice that mortals would appear here, and disturbed you. Where do you live? I will take you back."
[Affected by the charm value, the favorability of the plot characters "Xu Chunsan" and "Xu Xiandong" has increased. 】
"No, no, no need to trouble you. Our home is nearby." The old man Xu Chunsan asked his grandson to help him up and pointed to another section of the abandoned street.
Lin Ge looked forward. The neighborhood here was renovated, and most of the old houses were demolished. Except for Xu Chunsan and his grandson Xu Xiandong, it seemed that there was no third person.
"Let's go. I'll take you back if you're free." Lin Ge said, and then he walked up to accompany Xu Chunsan and his grandson to the old house.
Along the way, Lin Ge tried to ask Xu Chunsan about some things related to the underworld, but no matter how he asked, Xu Chunsan acted like an ordinary old man.
Even with the evil-chasing pupils, he couldn't see any clues. In fact, both of them were very "clean" and there was no trace of evil spirit.
This is incredible. You can see the messenger of hell, but there is no evil spirit, which means that you haven't even seen a ghost.
Walking into Xu Chunsan's shabby courtyard, Xu Chunsan asked his grandson to bring a chair for Lin Ge to sit down, and he ran to the kitchen to make tea for Lin Ge.
"Do you and your grandfather live here alone?" Lin Ge asked.
Xu Xiandong shook his head: "No, there is also Cheng Zao Shen."
"Cheng Zao Shen?"
At this moment, Lin Ge suddenly realized that a strong killing intent was locking him, and a figure appeared behind him silently.
Lin Ge reacted very quickly. He turned around suddenly and saw a strong man with arms longer than the average man's legs, punching him.
Lin Ge crossed his arms to block!
Bang!
The punch hit Lin Ge's arms and knocked him out. With 15 times the basic attributes of humans, Lin Ge's arms were numb after blocking the punch of the strong man.
Lin Ge flew backwards, stepped on the wall with his feet, and used the Tiyun vertical unloading force to stabilize his body. However, after seeing the face of the person who attacked him, he was stunned...
