Fast Transmigration: Embarrassed

Chapter 157 The Country of Beauty (15)

The second uncle thought about it, and felt that what Chu Ci said was right, so he nodded in agreement.

Next, several people communicated with Chu Ci about the things they needed to prepare on the road, as well as their several encounters with demons and evil spirits.

The king took the lead and said: "Everyone has heard the legend about the true face of the devil and why his soul did not go to the land of rebirth after his body died, but went to the swamp of death. If you want to say what he looks like, currently No one has seen it.”

Hu immediately answered: "Yes, the version I heard is that he died because he was too ugly and had low self-esteem. But he is not willing to go to the land of new life to be purified like this, maybe because he thinks his appearance is not bad. Save it. Anyway, the obsession was too deep, and I broke away from the shackles of the new land and went to the death swamp."

"The version I heard is a bit different." Guang also joined the discussion excitedly, "I heard from the third grandfather that the devil was originally handsome and became a marquis. But he was not satisfied and thought he could be elected king.

It was because of this extreme dissatisfaction that his soul was gradually distorted, and his appearance became more and more gloomy. Although he was still not ugly, it made people feel scared when he saw it.

At the request of many dignitaries, the devil was deposed as a marquis and became a commoner.On the day when he was expelled from the castle, the devil uttered a bold statement, saying that he would overthrow the selection system of the beautiful country, and let capable people become dignitaries instead of those beautiful vases.

As for when and why he died, Third Grandpa said that he had never heard of a reasonable version. "

The second uncle looked at their serious gossip, and was rather dumbfounded: "Hehehehe...You guys, instead of caring about those stories that people made up, it's better to tell the real things to the Duke of Chuci.

Duke of Chuci, although I have never seen the devil himself, I once overheard a conversation between two evil spirits, and there was something about the devil in it.

They were in a forest near the Death Swamp, which used to be a place rich in dragon balls.However, since the demons occupied the Death Swamp, the production of Fire Dragon Balls there has been reduced by half, and many of the fruits are not edible at all... It seems to be too far away. "

The second uncle took a sip of fruit wine and continued: "These two evil spirits seem to be newly-dead civilians. They were born ugly because of their appearance, so they did some hard work. After being accepted as evil spirits by the devil, The two of them had a deep resentment towards the beautiful city, and said a lot of words to vent their anger.

They also said that after the demon king completely turns the beautiful country into a kingdom of evil spirits, he must enslave those beautiful people, flog them, and use their pain and unwillingness to feed the demons.The devil said that the more beautiful the soul, the sweeter the cry, and the more delicious the painful emotion. "

"Bah! These damn evil spirits!" Tiger jumped up angrily when he heard this.

She gave him a white look: "Evil spirits are always dead."

"Uh..." Hu touched his head in embarrassment, and sat down again.

Chu Ci thought for a while and asked, "Second Uncle, what methods do you usually use to deal with evil spirits?"

The second uncle rubbed his nose, and replied with some shame: "Our measures are not considered to be countermeasures, but to prevent the evil spirits from causing trouble in nearby places and disturbing the civilians.

That's right, our guards once went to investigate the vicinity of the Death Swamp, and found that the closer to the swamp, the less sunlight there is. At the edge of the Death Swamp, there is almost no day, and the whole day is night.

Therefore, the guards speculated that they were afraid of light, so they arranged a lot of people in the towns near the death swamp. After the sun went down, they lit torches and bonfires outside the town, and sent people to take turns adding fire and fuel to ensure the peace of the town at night. .

Although this method is a bit stupid, it is also effective. Over the years, several generations of guards have done this. It is true that there are very few incidents of evil spirits attacking civilians. "

Chu Ci frowned after hearing this: "This method sounds really effective, but I'm still a little confused."

"Duke Chu Ci just ask."

Chu Ci looked at his second uncle and asked, "According to what you said just now, the evil spirits are so afraid of light, didn't you ever think of using fire to directly ignite the swamp of death and annihilate them in one fell swoop?"

The second uncle sighed deeply: "Oh, Duke of Chu Ci, how could we not have thought of this. The previous generation of guards had tried this method. They transported dozens of cars of fuel and poured it into the dead swamp, and then used The fire ignites the fuel.

However, those fuels didn't even emit a single spark. Even if the burning coals were thrown into the dead swamp, they would be extinguished immediately and sank to the bottom of the swamp.

Moreover, the guards held hundreds of torches, but they couldn't even illuminate a small corner of the death swamp. It seemed that there was not a swamp but a terrifying monster, a monster that swallowed all the light energy. "

After listening to their description, Chu Ci felt that the death swamp and the demon seemed to be more difficult to deal with than she imagined.

The king looked at Chu Ci's frown and gently persuaded him: "Duke Chu Ci, you don't have to worry too much. After all, the biochemical virus is just our guess. Whether the devil can create it and when will it be created? It’s still unknown.”

Chu Ci nodded: "Your Majesty, I was still too confident before. My plan needs to face the devil directly and defeat him with magic. However, the situation in the Death Swamp is more complicated than I expected, and my plan may need to be seen." After the situation there, make adjustments.”

"So you still plan to set off in a few days?" The king didn't expect that after hearing their description, Chu Ci didn't back down when the success rate decreased, and she still wanted to continue with her plan.

Chu Ci nodded: "Of course. Your Majesty, you can rest assured that although the environment of the Death Swamp is complicated, it is not a big threat to me who can use spells."

Seeing that Chu Ci was so confident, the king knew that persuading her would not work. He just thought about waiting for Chu Ci to leave for a while, and quietly told Guang and Hu to follow Chu Ci and the saint. They leave and return to the capital.

At this time, the saint, who had already received the news in the temple, happily danced in the temple.

"The Duke of Chu Ci is a very good man. He heard me complaining about being locked up in the temple yesterday, so he took me out to play!"

"Saint, why are you so happy?" Yan Feng asked curiously as he looked at the singing and dancing saint in front of him.

The saint smiled and answered, "It's the Duke of Chu Ci, she wants to take me to the Death Swamp to subdue the devil!"

Yan Feng suddenly felt a pain in his chest: "Death swamp, demon?!"
