It took more than a month, Yi Bai and other demons who traveled by water day and night, successfully passed through Yujun and Liujun, and finally arrived in the capital.
Yi Bai was walking in a river called "Golden River" outside the capital. He walked out of the water late at night and looked forward from here.
Vaguely, the outline of a majestic ancient city can be glimpsed in the dark night. Just from the outline, one can also see the majesty of this city.
Even though we are far apart, we can still feel the sense of time rushing towards us.
'This anger...'
Yi Bai looked from the river and saw the air above the city. He couldn't help but be surprised.
The air above this capital city is too complicated.
Red, purple, black, white, brown, mixed together, like a hodgepodge.
"Where has the energy of humanity gone? The capital has become like this, but the energy of humanity doesn't care?"
Yi Bai was puzzled.
He took Lao Gui and others out of the river and headed towards the capital.
"Zhenlong, it's inconvenient for us to go ashore, so we might as well wait for you in the river first."
The old turtle crawled and spoke.
"No need, Mr. Prophet, it's one thing that we have to go and meet the national master for a while, but the capital is also our last stop. You must follow me there."
Yi Bai shook his head and said.
When Old Turtle heard this, he didn't say anything else, and followed Yi Bai with a group of demons.
…
Yi Bai and his party walked not far from the capital and gradually saw this huge and majestic ancient city.
Yi Baiben also wanted to bring Lao Gui and other demons into the capital together.
But he hasn't taken action yet.
Suddenly he saw a group of demonic energy coming from a distance, trying to pass through him and enter the capital.
The majestic demonic aura is the aura of a great demon that has transformed into a demon.
The little demons behind Yi Bai were all trembling with fear.
Yi Bai strode forward to block the demonic aura from the little demons, opened his Dharma eyes, and looked at the demonic aura.
He took a closer look.
They are still acquaintances.
The snake demon who came to him to exchange territory in the past was already there.
This guy came to the capital so quickly?
"My God, I haven't seen you for a long time. How can I meet an old friend and not come over to catch up on old times?"
Yi Bai said hello.
Wow!
The demonic aura of the big transformed demon suddenly froze, and then dissipated, revealing the appearance of a snake demon.
"Chen Shen! I once said that when I see you, I will stay away!"
The snake demon bowed his hands from a distance and said.
After saying that.
The snake demon dodged and retreated, but not far, just farther away.
When Yi Bai saw this, he felt silent, but in his heart he felt that this snake demon was quite trustworthy.
"That's it, Mr. Prophet, let's go."
Yi Bai turned around and walked towards the capital.
The old turtle was busy leading the group of demons to follow.
The snake demon followed behind, not daring to get close.
…
Not long after.
Yi Bai has already led the little demons to find the nearest city gate to them.
But he didn't wait for them to enter the city.
A voice came from far away.
"Chen Shen, stop!"
All I could see was a cloud of auspicious clouds pressing down in the sky.
Yi Bai looked up.
There are two or three divine generals on the auspicious clouds
Auspicious clouds fell in front of Yi Bai.
The two or three gods and generals all bowed.
"Congratulations to Chen Shen for successfully arriving in the capital. Chen Shen, you are the fifth person to arrive in the capital!"
A god general spoke.
"Am I number five?"
Yi Baicuo was stunned.
He came to complete the test in the capital. How come he has arrived in the capital, and does his credit still count?
"Yes, Chen Shen, you are the fifth one! When the twelve gods gather together, we will go all the way to heaven!"
The god general said again.
Yi Bai hasn't reacted yet.
The general next to him seemed to see something, and he hurriedly waved behind Yi Bai and shouted, "Come quickly, God Si, come quickly."
The snake demon following behind had no choice but to step forward.
"Sishen, you came after Chenshen, and you are designated as the sixth one. Do you have any objections?"
A god general asked.
"Not yet!"
The snake demon waved his hands, not daring to look directly at Yi Bai.
"My dear generals, I wonder who the four in front of me are?"
Yi Bai asked respectfully.
He probably knew in his heart that maybe he was mistaken.
The Imperial Master in the capital was not within the scope of the test.
Since he knew about the Imperial Master in the capital, he would definitely investigate it.
It's just that he needs help.
Yi Bai wants to know whether the gray rat and the rabbit demon have arrived in the capital.
Faced with Yi Bai's inquiry, the god general did not hide anything. He raised his hands and said: "Hui Chen Shen, the four in front of you are the Son God, the Chou God, the Yin God, and the Mao God!"
Yi Bai was overjoyed when he heard this. The god Zi was not a gray rat, but the god Mao was a rabbit demon.
So very good.
If he had two helpers, it would be much easier for him to find out the purpose of the imperial master.
If he can find out the details of the National Preceptor, he can let the divine generals and others work with him to deal with the National Preceptor.
"May I ask the general, where are the Son God and the Mao God?"
Yi Bai asked.
"Chen God, the twelve gods who come to the capital can all wait with us in the clouds, or they can enter the capital on earth. As far as I know, the Son God and the Mao God are in the capital."
The god will answer with clasped fists.
"Excuse me, General. God, these monsters are all my followers. I may trouble General, take them to wait with Yunjian. I have some important things to go to the capital."
Yi Bai pointed at Lao Gui and other demons.
He wanted to investigate the matter of the Imperial Master, so it would be inconvenient to bring Old Turtle and other little demons with him.
"You can do anything!"
The two and three divine generals all agreed, and respectfully and politely invited Lao Gui and others to Xiangyun.
Yi Bai asked Lao Gui to take care of the little demons, bid farewell to the general, and went to the capital alone.
He used the art of false form to easily enter the capital.
…
As soon as he entered the capital, he saw streets extending in all directions and broad avenues, making Yi Bai not sure where to go.
This capital city is truly far beyond any city Yi Bai has ever seen.
"Real dragon!"
A shout sounded in the distance.
Very familiar.
Yi Bai turned around and saw an old man and a woman standing in the distance and looking at each other.
Aren't they the gray rat and the rabbit demon?
"She Jun! Yue Jing! No, no! Now it's time to call him Son God or Mao God."
Yi Bai strode forward.
"How could a real dragon make such a joke? He has known me since we were young. He is not a god. We are not allowed to call him that in private."
The gray rat grinned and said.
"I have been waiting for the real dragon for a long time! I thought the real dragon would arrive soon, but I never thought it would arrive today."
The rabbit demon also stepped forward.
"I brought some little demons with me, and there were many things happening along the way, so I walked a little slower. How come you two came so fast?"
Yi Bai gathered up and asked.
"Fortunately for me, Lord She came really quickly. It is said that Lord She arrived in the capital on the second day after the competition for the ranking of the twelve earthly branches began."
The rabbit demon looked at the gray rat.
When Yi Bai heard this, he was shocked.
As far as the land is concerned, it is in the far north. To get to the capital, you have to cross at least several counties and thousands of miles.
Thousands of miles a day...
This social leader is very capable.
"Shejun is very capable!"
Yi Bai held his hands in admiration.
"What the hell, I just spent more time on my escape skills."
Gray Rat waved his hand and said.
"How did those two people know that I could enter the capital?"
Yi Bai was curious.
As soon as he entered the capital, he was found by the gray rat and the rabbit demon.
"The real dragon doesn't know anything. I asked the ghosts and gods in the capital to keep an eye on the real dragon for me. Therefore, when the real dragon enters the capital, I will know it immediately."
Squirrel explained.
"That's it. Okay, we can't reminisce about old times here, but let's go into the city together first."
Yi Bai said so.
The gray rat and the rabbit demon did not refuse and walked towards the city together.
While walking, they told each other interesting things that happened to them.
Among them, most of the stories are about gray rats.
"True Dragon, Moon Spirit, please listen to me. There is a fool in my place. Do you know that the day before I set off, a mysterious cat came to me and said that he wanted me to take him to the capital. Let’s go to heaven together and become gods.”
"I felt happy after hearing this. I was asked to take it to heaven for no reason. Isn't this a dream? I saw that the mysterious cat was interesting, so I told him to go back and take a nap. Tomorrow morning, I will take it to heaven. , I flew to the capital early the next day, and when Xuan Mao'er woke up, I'm afraid he would be furious, hahahaha..."
said the gray rat.
Yi Bai shook his head after hearing this, no wonder the cat catches the mouse, it is natural.
The three demons entered the capital.
…
After entering the capital, Yi Bai told them the whole story.
Upon hearing this, the Gray Rat and the Rabbit Demon responded without asking for details, and worked with Yi Bai to find out about the Imperial Master.
Yi Bai felt happy when he saw it.
He waited until daybreak and found an inn with Squirrel and Rabbit Demon to stay. After Squirrel found out the location of the Imperial Prefect's Mansion, he asked the rat sons and grandsons from the capital to go there and find out the clues.
But no matter how much they were sent, it was all ineffective. They all left and never came back, and no news could be brought back.
After Yi Bai found out, he did not hesitate to take action personally and visit the Imperial Master's Mansion.
After he asked the gray rat and rabbit demon to wait for him at the inn.
He went to the Imperial Master's Mansion in person.
…
The capital has a vast territory, rich resources, and a large population. However, it is divided into inner and outer cities. The outer city is mostly occupied by ordinary people, while the inner city is the residence of merchants, squires, and dignitaries. It is not an exaggeration to say that "a stone can hit an official."
The Imperial Preceptor's Mansion is built in the innermost part of the inner city. Further up is the Emperor's Palace, which shows its great honor.
The Imperial Master's Mansion occupies an area of over a thousand acres, with a large gate and green tiles. It is even more prosperous than the imperial palace. Compared with it, temples such as these are far inferior.
Yi Bai appeared in the daytime and stood not far from the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion, looking at the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion.
This Imperial Master's Mansion was shrouded in humane aura, and his Dharma eyes could not peer into it.
But……
Yi Bai discovered something very strange.
Next to the Imperial Master's Mansion is the Imperial Palace.
Can……
The humane energy in the imperial palace is three points weaker than the humane energy in the Imperial Prefect's Mansion?
Yi Bai was surprised.
He used the art of invisibility to enter the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion.
There were hundreds of steps to the Imperial Prefect's Mansion, and he had already entered in a few steps. The gate was guarded by a team of soldiers.
Yi Bai disappeared and the soldiers could not detect him.
He walked through the door easily.
As he walked through the door.
He spied a jar lying by the door.
When he is about to enter the National Master's Mansion.
There was actually a golden energy in the jar coming towards him, but it was aware of his invisibility and wanted to break his invisibility.
Yi Bai was startled and said "change", turning into a fly, and then the golden energy disappeared.
He looked at the jar in surprise.
I don't understand why this altar is emitting golden light, but it can still see through his invisibility.
His invisibility is not difficult to break, but you have to have some skills to see through it. Ordinary people are not allowed to find his traces.
Just when Yi Bai was suspicious.
Two monks came from a distance and stood beside the altar.
"Junior brother, please rest assured. It's just that there have been a few more rats in the house recently. It's not some monsters that are attacking. Even if there are real monsters, what's the point of fear? You're overthinking it. Do you know what this altar is?"
asked the older monk.
"What is this altar?"
another monk asked.
"This monk is the master of the National Preceptor!"
"This, how is this possible? This is just a jar."
"But you don't understand. What is inside the jar is the master of the national master. I once heard the master say that the master of the national master has been practicing for more than three hundred years. Before his death is approaching, he personally asked the master to seal his body in the altar. , it is said that it has been fifty years, and the body of the national master has become a treasure! The national master placed the jar here, and no evil spirits can enter!"
The conversation between the two monks was all listened to by Yi Bai.
The fly that Yi Bai transformed into fluttered its wings. Looking at the jar, he felt a chill.
Refining the remains into a treasure.
Why does this smell like a lama?
Yi Bai didn't dare to make a judgment easily. After he knew what the jar was, he didn't stop and flew into it.
But he wandered around the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion for a long time and could not find the so-called Imperial Preceptor's location.
The Imperial Preceptor's Mansion is too big.
There is a humane spirit inside.
He couldn't see it with his naked eyes, and he couldn't see it with his magical eyes, so he had to look everywhere.
After searching around, I found a lot of monks. Most of them were real people who had no spirit of spiritual practice. They were said to be monks, but in fact they were just slaves.
"Where is this Imperial Master?"
Yi Bai went crazy.
He had no choice but to keep flying and keep searching.
Look around.
Yi Bai found something very familiar to him in a magnificent main hall.
It's a snare drum.
This drum...
He also has one, sealed in his Demonic Pill Pot Heaven.
Human skin drum.
this……
Yi Bai's heart sank. How could he still not understand that this imperial master was really a lama? No wonder he smelled like a lama when he entered.
This lama actually became the national advisor of the human dynasty and colluded with monsters. Now he is spreading his good name everywhere. What is he trying to do?
Yi Bai thought that the humane spirit in the Imperial Palace was stronger than that in the imperial palace.
There was a vague guess in my mind.
Is this lama trying to change the situation?
Is this lama so bold that he wants to steal the country?
Yi Bai was just guessing, he wasn't sure.
He had no choice but to flap his wings and fly outside to find the whereabouts of the Imperial Master and find out what was going on.
…
Yi Bai's search lasted only one day.
He almost searched the entire Imperial Preceptor's residence, but couldn't find any clues at all.
Even the Imperial Master couldn't find him, and his search was fruitless.
I wanted to leave right now.
But by chance, Yi Bai heard a slight whimpering in a hall, which caught his attention.
Yi Bai turned into a fly, and after searching around, he found that there was an underground layer under the hall.
He was busy fluttering his wings and flying inside.
Entering the basement from the hall, a strong smell of blood mixed with a strange fragrance hit your face, accompanied by the sounds of laughter, curses, and screams.
Yi Bai flew forward, but the next moment, what he saw made him feel cold in his heart, but soon, the coldness was replaced by anger...
