Chapter 407: The Dilemma
a moment, wondering how he could earn the evaluation of "outstanding."Carefully recalling his performance over the past two days since arriving on Cang Hai Island.Isn't that a good performanceI though..."Sir, I see all my comrades have come out, so I came in to clean." Lu Cheng replied.
Wipe.
Si Zheng's face was filled with surprise.
This errand boy hasn't died before, has he
The assessment of the Town Ghost Bureau is divided into a written exam and a physical exam.
He didn't even pass the written exam for auxiliary soldiers, and he didn't participate in the martial arts test. He probably hasn't even seen a ghost! Truly, a newborn calf is fearless of tigers!
"Have you ever seen a ghost" Si Zheng said, taking off the remaining half of the mask. Lu Cheng glanced at him. The other half of Si Zheng's face was different from the first. Under the mask was half a woman's face, but the woman's eye was closed, making it very strange.
Seeing Lu Cheng's lack of reaction, Si Zheng was startled.
He was called a yin-yang scholar, and it was truly yin-yang. He was born conjoined with his sister, and through the secret methods of doctors and yin-yang masters, they survived. His sister was frail but had a yin eye which she never opened.
What would Lu Cheng's reaction be
The underworld is full of talented pranksters. A scholar like him would be considered quite handsome on the ghost street.
"Sir, I've seen a ghost." Lu Cheng replied truthfully.
Every morning you can see ghosts even when washing your face by the River Styx.
"That's interesting. Our official personnel, in terms of courage, aren't as brave as an ordinary laborer. Just now, a ghost startled many skilled people away." The Magistrate sighed in admiration.
"Sir, may I enter the palace now I have swept the floor," Lu Cheng asked.
"Don't go in, the palace is full of dangerous things. Even I need to study them more before trying to forcefully seize their souls, it's very risky." The scholar shook his head.
Just now he tried, the ghosts in Tang Palace were extremely ferocious, and for some reason, in this palace, there was a high-ranking person who had built the [Li Yin Great Formation] to expel a large amount of yin energy. Logically speaking, it should have kept all evil spirits at bay. So what's going on this time
"May I have another try" Lu Cheng asked.
"You"
"I've learned some underworld skills. If I go in with you, who knows Maybe I can take a look." Lu Cheng replied.
Si Zheng was thinking.
He is the director of the Ghost Suppression Bureau, a rank three official. Naturally, entering the palace wouldn't be an issue for him. Today, he failed to capture the ghost, which is quite embarrassing. But to believe that a lowly servant could resolve the situation It's ridiculous.
"You're not capable. Bravery doesn't equal skill. You can't handle this."
"Master, your yang energy is overwhelming and your yin energy deficient. If you continue to forcefully use yang fire techniques, my sister fears that I may disappear soon," Lu Cheng suddenly said something he didn't want to say.
"What!!" Si Zheng's face was full of surprise, the woman on his other side also opened her eyes suddenly.
Lu Cheng's divine sense swept across, and he immediately obtained information about some card skills.
The Ramen's energy is severely unbalanced, this Twin card will soon lose one side.
"Master Si, please lead me inside first."
Okay!
!
The palace guards at the gate did not stop the two men. Lu Cheng followed Si Zheng into the palace.
The further you go in, the more uncomfortable it feels.
I'm a bit agitated.
The whistling in his ear grew louder and louder. Even from outside the perimeter, Lu Cheng could feel the agitated ghosts within the palace walls.
What's going on
"Um," Si Zheng found himself increasingly unable to see through the attendant in front of him.
"Master Si Zheng, is there some kind of formation here"
"My predecessors in the Ghost Suppression Office poured their hearts and souls into establishing this place with the 'Great Array of Separation from Yin,' to ensure that no more ghosts would plague us." The Head Supervisor replied.
Lu Cheng's face was grave as he inspected the palace wall before him.
Caressing the arcane circuit inscribed upon its surface
What's wrong Any problems
Lu Cheng frowned.
"We can't go any further! We should push down the palace walls right now," Lu Cheng replied.
"What's going on" Si Zheng was baffled. Toppling a palace wall He probably wouldn't live to see tomorrow.
Lu Cheng spoke as he prepared to make a move.
It's a good thing I came, otherwise I would have been finished tonight!
!
Lu Cheng has already started smashing the wall.
"Oh!"
!!!
"Stop!," Si Zheng cried, trying to intervene. "You dare vandalize the palace This is a grave crime!"
!
"Master Si, there are ghosts everywhere in this world. Even the spirits of the Tang Palace are numerous. And by draining all the yin qi from here, you've left them like humans deprived of air - they're suffocating! How can they not be enraged !"
"Lu Cheng explained,"
Even this Nascent Soul Stage Yin cultivator felt uncomfortable. Lower-level ghosts would likely become even more agitated without their Yin Qi. They would first start killing each other, then wreak havoc in the palace. If it weren't for other ghost-suppressing formations in Tang Palace, they would have likely gone berserk instead of just making Li Shimin ill and causing panic!
Si Zheng, upon hearing this, was dumbfounded.
"This is the same as your body," Lu Cheng added.
"The purpose of a magic array is to dispel yin energy and drive away spirits. Why don't they flee" asked Si Zheng.
Lü Cheng shook his head. "The world is vast, yin and yang are balanced. Why be so arrogant This is the imperial palace, but it's also their home. Even the Underworld confines souls with a proper procedure. How can you forcefully demolish their homes"
"Good, good balance of yin and yang." A voice came from afar.
The emperor has arrived!
!
The belated notification only just rang out.
Li Shimin's body was becoming increasingly heavy, and he was also worried about his physical condition. He also knew that the Zhan Yao Si had recently suffered a defeat, and the Zhen Gui Si had entered the palace today. Naturally, he wanted to come and see for himself.
Si Zheng turned his head and bowed.
"I pay my respects to Your Majesty."
Lu Cheng hasn't reacted yet.
Come over here, is that Emperor Taizong Li Shimin He looks a little pale.
Lu Cheng had seen many things in the world, his expression remained unchanged.
"See Your Majesty."
"I didn't know your Majesty would come in person. I am deeply sorry for the lack of a proper welcome." Si Zheng stepped back.
"Haha, you're violently evicting people in my home, of course I had to come."
Oh, this.
"Your Majesty, this won't do. Ordinary ghosts are harmless, and they can even be beneficial if we allow their yin energy to return." Lu Cheng said.
He can't handle 【Curse cards】, especially those dealing with negativity like this one. Too many of these are particularly troublesome.
"Why should I believe you"
Li Shimin eyed the two people before him.
The Head of the Demon Suppression Division is a capable man, that much he knows. It's just that this person beside him...
He started by smashing the wall.
First of all, this person is incredibly brave.
"Your Majesty, I have proof to show you," Lu Cheng stepped forward.
"Be bold!" the guards shouted, forcing Lu Cheng back.
"No problem, let him come." Li Shimin had been fighting in the north and south since his youth, so he was naturally not afraid of these things. He just felt that Lu Cheng's theory made some sense.
Lu Cheng walked forward and waved his hand lightly.
Li Shimin suddenly felt that his body was much lighter!
!
This
The imperial physicians and Taoists had been researching for several months with no progress, but now the officers from the Spirit Suppression Division just appeared like that!
Li Shimin smiled, after all, who wouldn't want a good body
Interesting Do you know about my illness
"Of course," Lu Cheng nodded. "Your Majesty's current state, ah, the ailment is entirely due to the ghosts losing their yin energy and their home, 【resentment】 gathering on you."
He just drew a card of Li Shimin and removed the 【resentment】 from its surface.
Of course, he ended up with Lu Cheng.
“Wrath (8) has been added to your deck!”
It's just that the resentment isn't up to 10 pages yet, so there aren't any obvious negative effects right now.
Back then, when dealing with the girl in red, Lu Cheng had come into contact with a lot of 【resentment】. He could be considered an expert in that area.our Highness, don't be so hasty. You are a Gold Card Master, did you feel the energy fluctuations just now" Lu Cheng asked."Eh" Rose furrowed her brow.That's true!The Crimson Moon Estate is surrounded...
