Episode 26: The Wicked Shall Receive Baptism of Hell (Below) Ascending Dragon Ground Finale

  As the three people took their first step into the building, the entire building seemed to be shaking violently, with strange noises occasionally drifting down from upstairs, giving off a sci-fi movie vibe, yet without any visible signs of technology. This is mysticism! This is Feng Shui!

  Just as I was about to say something to Ye Yatou, I suddenly heard a burst of cat meows around me!

  Right after that, eight black cats appeared out of nowhere in front of us. What terrified me was that these few cats had eaten something and become enormous! If calculated by their size, they were as big as tigers! The huge eyes stared straight at the interior of the building, and the sharp fangs reflected a dim glow. The eight giant black cats completely ignored us and jumped into the building. The building shook again, like an ancient giant about to revive, with an angry tone.

  Right after that came a series of ear-piercing, brain membrane-penetrating howls. Ye Yi covered his ears and shouted: "Yang Guang, be careful! Luo Sha has burst out!"

  Immediately afterwards, countless lights seemed to form in the sky and gradually fell towards the direction of the building.

  Before I could make a decision, I heard the sound of roosters crowing in the distance.

  Have you ever seen a big rooster fly?

  Over a hundred large roosters that could fly came flying from all directions. Each one had grown to the size of a circle, with sharp beaks like sharp knives and claws reflecting a light similar to fangs, just looking at them gave off a feeling of deadly weapons.

  I finally saw the prototype of Rakshasa!

  That's a giant centipede! Each one is as thick as a ping-pong ball, and over half a meter long. The mouthparts of those things seem to have a bright blue gemstone, each beam of light shoots out from that blue gemstone! Each beam of blue light seems to be comparable to a bullet with strong killing power, but those cocks that doubled in size, the five-colored feathers on their bodies seem to completely ignore those powerful lights. Only Ye reminded me to be careful of those blue lights.

  Each of these Rakshas has a purple mist spouting from its tail, flying in the air! Yes, it's flying! This is the Flying Sky Centipede mentioned briefly in the Shan Hai Jing. A mysterious object standing outside the nine heavens, with no origin, holding a bright pearl, can be used as a spiritual medicine to cure all diseases and eliminate ancient tomb evil poison. It has never been seen alive, occasionally there are rumors of flying sky centipedes, but they are not used as medicine, it is said that they can protect the body and turn into jade talismans, just like the Tong Ling Bao Yu protects its master. [Note: The part about the Flying Sky Centipede is completely fictional, don't bother trying to verify it.]

  It is said that roosters are natural enemies of centipedes!

  More than a hundred roosters saw more than a hundred centipedes, and it's easy to imagine how excited they were.

  But what's even more exciting is Ye Yi! This guy, at this time, actually used that broken gong-like voice to excitedly shout: "Good stuff ah, good stuff ah! Worth a fortune, must get two or it won't be worth the cost!" And then he wanted to rush towards the Flying Sky Centipede.

  I hastily grabbed him and shouted: "Are you crazy? That thing is a Rakshasa, it's only when it dies that it becomes a flying centipede. Are you going to risk your life by charging forward like this?"

  As soon as I shouted, Ye Yi understood. He gritted his teeth and stomped his foot, saying: "Let's do it! This is all about money, a lot of money, worth a fortune! People die for wealth, birds die for food, we must do it! As long as the big rooster pecks to death, you're in charge of catching the chicken, and I'll be in charge of snatching the centipede's corpse."

  This idea is not bad, it's much better than directly robbing.

  A gigantic rooster and a flying armadillo are fighting around us until the sky grows dark.

  A burst of sparks shot out from both sides, neither the rooster's sharp beak nor its sharp claws could break through the centipede's defense in the first time. The light emitted by the ball-like object in the flying centipede's mouth also couldn't harm the Five-Flower Rooster. This scene was just like a magical beast battle in a fantasy world.

  I and Ye hid aside, vaguely feeling that the final victory might not be relying on here, but above.

  After all, it is said that before the dragon matures, the relationship between the dragon and the roach is symbiotic. As long as the dragon does not die, the roach will not be in danger of falling, but no matter how strong the roach is, if the dragon it is parasitic on dies, the roach will also die like losing its soul.

  Just then, a cold wind suddenly came from all sides.

  Immediately afterwards, there were piercing howls everywhere.

  "Quickly hide!" Ye Yidao shouted loudly.

  In an instant, the entire dark sky suddenly became even more profound, a faint scent wafted in from all directions, my spine began to surge with a chill, goosebumps spread across my body in the blink of an eye, every hair on my body stood up. Ye Yilai didn't have time to explain, he dragged me and ran.

  While running, Ye Yi seemed to be looking for something and finally chose a location of a trash can.

  "In!" he said, and Lima bent his waist and jumped in first.

  At this time, I didn't care what kind of foul smell the trash can was, and I plunged in with a plop.

  "What's going on?"

  "Shadow troops have arrived."

  We both nodded slightly and looked outside.

  If I couldn't see these strange things normally, that's a normal phenomenon, but today I saw them, I don't know if it counts as abnormal or not. Ye Yidao said: "Today the yin and yang energy here is completely out of balance, even ordinary people can see some things. To you, they are just some strange glows, but to me, I can see them clearly."

  Right after that, the building with green flames burning on it emitted a series of tearing sounds, extremely frightening crackling noises. Immediately following that, the ground was shaking continuously.

  Then, there were waves of mournful howls, the sound like a tiger but not a tiger, like a wolf but not a wolf. Next came waves of genuine tiger roars, and the sound of shattering glass, as if all the windows on the entire floor had exploded in an instant, crashing down like rain.

  Seeing this scene, Ye Yicai gritted her teeth and said: "Cruel!"

  Although I couldn't see it clearly, I could feel that intense atmosphere. This sentence is so fierce that I want to top it!

  In front of me, everywhere are vague grayish-white human shadows, their shapes can't be seen clearly, only a feeling of flying and running wildly in the sky, but each movement has an unusual beauty and disorderly sense, giving people a very strange feeling.

  What's even more bizarre is that since the addition of the dark troops, the entire force opposing the half-human and half-dragon has exceeded three factions. Mr. Tai Yi and his group count as one faction. The eight black cats who don't know what kind of fertilizer they ate count as another faction, and the 105 five-flower roosters should also count as a faction. And then there's this time's dark troops counting as a large faction of helpers. It can be said that their military strength is strong, their power is robust, and it's unprecedented in scale. At least, I've never seen such a massive formation.

  My mortal eyes can't exaggerate the scene inside that eerie building, I won't make anything up. However, within less than five minutes, over a hundred giant centipedes suddenly fell from the sky, followed by over a hundred large roosters also falling from the sky in an instant. Both sides seemed to turn into corpses instantly. I pulled Ye Yi and said: "Let's go pick up the flying centipedes."

  "You're stupid? The enemy is outside. Having money is also a matter of having a life to spend it. Just now, I told you to catch the chicken, didn't see you being so diligent."

  "Is it those big roosters who can't kill the flying centipedes? Mind your own business!"

  The two of us started arguing in such an atmosphere. Not for anything else, just because we were both very nervous.

  "Why dig through trash cans?"

  "Because trash cans are places that hide filth and stench, comparable to toilets. No yin spirits or yin soldiers would be willing to approach such a place."

  "Let's move the trash can and pick up the flying cockroaches."

  "Can you move?"

  "It can't be moved."

  "Then don't waste words."

  During the process of skinning, because the ground was shaking too violently, the two of us lying in the trash can felt like we were sitting on a pirate ship. It was at this moment that I saw a scene I had seen before. That was a scene that I would never forget for the rest of my life.

  Bang!

  Bang!

  Bang!

  It was like the sound of a heartbeat, coming from the earth, the sound getting more and more urgent, until it finally turned into deafening drumbeats. Ye Yi shouted: "The gates of hell are open, ghosts and demons are coming in! Damn it, they're going to open the underworld!"

  "What's going on? Why are you opening a ghost door here?"

  "It's unclear, probably related to those three hundred or so people."

  The two of us were shouting, surrounded by strange waves of fluctuation, and suddenly the entire surroundings became extremely quiet.

  The main entrance of the building has a large green belt and relatively spacious cement road. At this moment, it suddenly collapsed!

  No wonder this familiar scene was actually the gate of hell opening, it looked just like what I saw in Mr. Tai Yi's formation!

  A huge deep hole burst open on the ground, and inside it spewed out a red glow. However, it did not connect directly to the sky, but instead transformed into a magnificent canopy. The western side of the ground near the entrance was slowly bulging up, as if the earth was being torn apart. Then, countless dark troops filled the space, they were solemn, proud, sacred, majestic, and cold...

  The dark creatures that were originally floating around no longer flew about randomly, they hovered around the cave entrance, letting out mournful cries.

  The ground is slowly being pushed apart, and something like a roof appears bit by bit. It silently pushes the ground up continuously, as if in slow motion.

  Immediately, countless red lights shot out from the bodies of the flying centipedes on the ground. Each light became crystal clear under the sliding light cover, slowly removing the blood glow from their bodies. A hint of green filled their entire body. Although I still couldn't see the faces of those who had passed away, I believed they wouldn't go to hell. They were the real victims! If there was still true justice in this world, it would be the living beings behind that large gate in front of me, and they would give each deceased soul a fair trial.

  A strange cry kept coming from the rooftop, and the surrounding yinbing began to move. With the sound of varying lengths, urgent and disorderly, it suddenly rose above all the cries. It seemed like a signal! The final charge signal, and all the yinbing floating around rushed into the sky in an instant!

  No more explosions were heard on the rooftop, but the faint green flames grew fierce. This ferocity was relative, or rather, I should say it was chilly! Because it was very cold, really, really cold, and ice crystals began to appear around us at a visible speed.

  Then...

  A long object is falling from the sky!

  Crashing heavily onto the ground, countless fragments of stone were sent flying everywhere. It was the upper body of an old man, while his lower body was that of a gigantic serpent's, its emerald green scales glistening in the light. Mouthful after mouthful of fresh blood spewed out from the mouth of this half-man, half-snake creature - or perhaps it would be more accurate to say, half-dragon. Its long, serpentine body was covered in wounds that defied all imagination, and those sounds that were like a tiger's roar or a wolf's howl were coming from this very creature.

  Ye suddenly let out a loud cry, "Not good!"

  But I didn't expect that at the moment when I was about to continue reading, the huge dragon's tail swept towards the trash can where we were hiding.

  A huge impact suddenly crashed onto the trash can, and at that moment, I enjoyed the thrill of a collision exceeding 100 kilometers per hour... fun... fun...

  Right after that, I fell into endless darkness. What bad luck! That thing had blown me away!

  Before I completely lost consciousness, I vaguely seemed to hear Zhong Kui's voice. The sound was fleeting and rootless, with only one sentence that kept echoing in my thoughts as I lost consciousness: "Evil doers must undergo the baptism of hell, I, as the judge, condemn you to fall into hell forever!"

  But what I was thinking of was flying cockroaches, and I didn't catch a single one, what a loss!

  "Dragon Ascending Land" is complete...

  I'm not sure if it's fair to end the second story like this. Personally, I think I've already written everything I wanted to write, but there are some things that are too fantastical and don't want to appear in this kind of story. As a witness and participant, Yang Guang has done his part, so the story of Shenglongdi comes to an end here.

  The next story will take us out of D City, where we'll accept Grandma Gao's invitation to visit Lingnan Miao Village for a spin. Then, naturally, there will be even more bizarre stories waiting for Yang Guang and Ye Yi. However, before going to Lingnan, Yang Guang and Ye Yi will make a killing... I hope the next story can bring more joy to our friends.

  Also, Xiao He has organized the foreshadowing parts buried in these two stories.

  The first is the brutal killing in the tomb, and where did that so-called zombie go. This will be explained in a future story, friends can take this as a big pit, directly related to one of the most critical main lines of this book, but if you just follow this main line, the story won't be interesting anymore.

  So, the zombie part in the grave-robbing story will appear bit by bit in future stories. At the same time, Yang Guang's personal witness events will also be relatively more frequent, making strange and mysterious things even stranger and more bizarre. Of course, folk magic and tricks will also be presented one by one. The most important thing is that if we involve too many fantasy elements, it will greatly reduce the impact of the magic and tricks on friends. Right or not? Hehe! At least I think so. Cough cough, who made me the storyteller anyway, forgive me, everyone.

  There is also a second foreshadowing, which is the dragon burial, right? This will be in the future, mainly because of time constraints, otherwise this story should have been third. However, the third one has already been confirmed to go to the mysterious Lingnan once, so let's put it later.

  The third pit is about Police Officer Zhang's against-the-sky change of fate, which will appear in the third story.

  The fourth pit is the saying of yin and yang double child fate, this will appear soon, probably in the first few sections of the third story.

  The fifth one is probably the follow-up explanation of this dragon story, which will be slightly explained in the next chapter, but not much, after all it has ended. The deputy captain will continue to be a good policeman, I try to avoid political factors. So, if you say that the case of Tian Da's affairs, it's better to simply hand over. That will also be handed over in Chapter 3. Briefly explained.

  The sixth foreshadowing is the most important one in this chapter, who is this half-human and half-dragon, and where did he come from. I can only reveal here that this half-human and half-deaf Taiwanese capitalist who intervened in the construction of affordable housing estates is just a minor character, behind him there is an even more enormous, long-planned event. It can be said that the first and second stories are just a huge pit! A huge thread, behind which lies, naturally, according to conventional wisdom, a heaven-sized secret. As for whether this pit can be filled, everyone will have to wait and see.

  The last one is a foreshadowing that doesn't know whether it's dug for itself or for you, the section of the dark spirit entering the dream after the end of the first chapter story. How to say, sent the god to the Diamond Temple, actually half has ended, and the remaining half about the snake fairy and the fox fairy may appear very, very long after. It can be considered as the ending that will have at that time. This pit, everyone temporarily ignores it for now.

  As for some minor pitfalls, I may forget or remember them. Friends are welcome to supplement in the book review area and remind me at any time.

  Finally, I'd like to ask, does everyone think that Wen Yi's reversal is...? Do you want to see the reversal? Want to see Wen Yi reversing Yang Guang and Gao Ni'er reversing Ye Yi? Hehe, then let's collect votes and look forward to it.

  Here is the translation:

  Alright, it's officially announced that the second story "Dragon Rising Land" has come to an end. The third story "Ancient Tomb Maze" will begin immediately. A different way of opening tombs, no tomb raiding, no treasure hunting, and no incredible traps, but instead, full of mysterious flavors. In the mystical mountains of Lingnan, hidden is an ancient mausoleum from ancient mythological stories, which once symbolized a part of the Chinese people's bloodline.
