Red Mansion: Incense and God Road, starting from the City God of Shenjing

Chapter 14: The Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Gods Appear in the Underworld
The two evil spirits exuded a murderous aura.

As soon as he was born, he turned his hateful gaze towards Jia Cong.

The degree of their ferocity is far beyond what could be compared to those captured by the soldiers and ghosts of the City God Temple before.

"Not bad!"

"town!"

Jia Cong nodded approvingly and threw the "Shendao Seal" in his hand.

The three-inch treasure seal burst out with brilliant divine light.

The Shinto Road is magnificent, it can suppress ghosts and ward off evil spirits!
This Shinto seal is the nemesis of all ghosts and evil spirits.

In the eyes of the two ghosts, the three-inch treasure seal pressed down like a mountain.

There wasn't even any room for resistance.

He was firmly imprisoned in the place.

Then a golden light fell.

Severe pain came.

Five divine powers!

Ten divine powers!

Twenty divine powers!
Thirty divine powers!
Jia Cong's eyes are bright!

He didn't care about the consumption of divine power at all.

Based on the rules summarized over the past three months.

The transformation and enthronement of ordinary ghost soldiers requires the consumption of five divine powers.

The transformation and enthronement of the ghost soldier commander requires the consumption of ten divine powers.

And now, the two pseudo-innate warriors were extremely happy and sad, and the evil spirits born from their death under torture have each consumed fifteen divine powers.

Obviously, it is beyond the level of the ghost soldier commander.

Golden light fell and divine power surged!
After a stick of incense

It took nearly half of Jia Cong's divine power, and after sixty transformations, the two ghosts were finally transformed.

Very different from ordinary ghost soldiers or ghost soldier leaders.

Twelve feet tall, nearly four meters in height.

He was shirtless and holding a chain as thick as a bowl.

Like an iron statue, his muscles are knotted and every part seems to have been tempered through thousands of trials and tribulations.

He has a sturdy figure and stands like an ancient pine tree, full of strength and majesty.

The broad shoulders and strong chest all demonstrate bravery and tenacity.

There were faint shadows of an ox head and a horse face above their heads.

Two scrolls unfolded in Jia Cong's mind, and the lives of the two people flashed by like a passing show.

Liaodong was bitterly cold, but the son of a military household was gifted with extraordinary powers.

The military fields were occupied by the hundred households, who became tenants, with no food to eat and no clothes to wear.

The resistance failed and the whole family was killed. Only two people were left and were fortunately rescued by a noble man during the pursuit.

He was taught martial arts and sent to the border town of Datong.

Fifteen years later, he was promoted to the rank of captain and deputy captain.

He was secretly sent to Anping Mountain to become a bandit.

Until after death, he turned into a ghost!

[Life and death, disaster and fortune, cause and effect will have their own retribution. Zhang Li is appointed as the soul-collecting messenger under the seat of the City God of Daxing County: Niu Tou (rank eight)]

[Life and death, disaster and fortune, cause and effect will have their own retribution. Zhang Mang is appointed as the soul-collecting messenger under the seat of the City God of Daxing County: Horse-faced (Eighth Rank)]

A brilliant voice rang out from Jia Cong's mind.

"How can there be such a coincidence in the world!"

After waking up, Jia Cong shook his head slightly.

Daqian was established a hundred years ago, and the military household system in border towns had shown signs of corruption, but it had never been so corrupt.

After all, it was because he was born with supernatural powers and was noticed by others, so the trap was set up deliberately.

……

"Greetings to the Lord of the City. I am willing to go through fire and water for you, without hesitation!"

The Ox-Head and Horse-Faced Devil transformed by Zhang Li and Zhang Mang knelt on one knee.

A deep, rich voice pledged allegiance.

The city is for the people. The huang is the city wall. If there is water, it is called a pond. If there is no water, it is called a huang. The Book of Changes says: The city is back to the huang. It is derived from the sound of Fuhuang.

The City God is actually the God of Earth!
Protect the country and the people, connect yin and yang, and send away the ghosts.

Therefore, there should be six great underworld messengers under the seat.

Wandering gods day and night, Black and White Impermanence, Ox-Head and Horse-Faced Gods!
Good quality and class!

This priesthood is not the only one, and is the same as the priesthood of the land and river gods in the Shinto treasure seals.

The number of gods that can be canonized depends on the total number of incense sticks.

The more incense sticks there are, the more gods can be canonized.

"Get up!"

Jia Cong sensed the strength of the two gods and looked satisfied.
It was worth all the effort. Zhang Mang and Zhang Li were already stronger than ordinary ninth-level warriors.

He took forbidden elixirs to break through to the pseudo-innate realm, but died after suffering double torture of his body, mind and spirit.

At this time, he was conferred the title of Ox-Head and Horse-Face.

The strength remains at the third level.

Appearing in broad daylight is equivalent to a warrior at the first level of the innate realm.

At night, its strength is even three times stronger.

A congenital warrior at the third level is already considered a top master in Daqian.

Even if you just enter the first level, you will be hired by countless dignitaries and even the royal family to serve as a servant and be treated as a guest of honor.

Not to mention that two of them came at once!
……

"Reporting to the Lord of the City, all the bandits here have been cleared out."

"A total of 1,261 bandits were wiped out, and 113 evil spirits were born. They have been temporarily captured and detained by my subordinates."

At this moment, the ghost soldier leader Wang Er came in and brought Jia Cong another good news.

In the three months since Jia Cong awakened Su Hui, he has never sensed the existence of the underworld.

When an ordinary person dies, if he has no resentment or obsession, his ghost will remain for a maximum of three days before dissipating.

For the 1,200 Black Wind Bandits here.

Evil ghosts demanding souls is undoubtedly an extremely terrifying thing, just like in ghost legends.

Especially after Wang Er and other ghost soldiers were exposed, they died of fright.

You can imagine the resentment in their hearts.

This also led to a significant increase in the proportion of evil spirits being born.

There were more than 1,200 people, and more than 100 evil spirits were born.

"Bring them in!"

Jia Cong's spiritual power was depleted by half and would not be restored until tomorrow.

After thinking for a moment, he ordered a group of ghost soldiers to escort the evil ghost into the hall.

Use the "Shinto Treasure Seal" to suppress them first, and then transform them into ghost soldiers after the divine power is restored.

The 1,200 Black Wind Bandits were originally military households in Datong Town, and have become bandits over the years.

Each of their hands was stained with the blood of innocent merchants passing by.

Karma has its consequences, and the death is what he deserves. There is nothing to sympathize with.

Besides, Jia Cong is not a kind-hearted person.

"Sir, I found a natural cave in the back, and there are many things hidden in it."

After Jia Cong temporarily suppressed all the evil ghosts into the Shinto seal, the ghost army leader Wang Er reported again.

"Oh? Go check it out!"

Led by Wang Er and a group of ghost soldiers, Jia Cong passed through the mountain stronghold where corpses were strewn all over the ground.

We walked all the way to a natural cave behind the village.

The entrance is one person high and can only accommodate three people at a time.

After walking more than thirty steps inside, the cave gradually becomes wider, and after another fifty steps it suddenly becomes open.

A natural cave comes into view.

It is as big as two football fields and is eight or nine meters high.

"Sir, this should be where the bandits hid their treasure!"

Wang Er spoke.

"Ok!"

Jia Cong nodded and walked into the cave.

While searching, he used the space inside the Shinto seal to retrieve the items.

First there were more than twenty boxes filled with neatly weighed silver ingots.

A rough estimate puts it at over 100,000 taels.

There were also nearly two boxes of gold, weighing more than three thousand taels.

Then there were mountains of food and various commodities that were obviously looted.

Several carts of spices that were looted from the Jia Mansion were also piled here.

After passing a few grain stacks, even Jia Cong had no idea what was hidden behind them.

A piece of excellent armor.

The blades forged from wrought iron are also considered the best heavy armor in the army.

Each one is very expensive and requires the most skilled craftsmen in the Ministry of Industry to cast.

According to Daqian laws, anyone who privately possesses even one piece of armor is prohibited from doing so.

He was also directly charged with treason.

A rough estimate shows that there are more than 800 sets of armor here.
