On the outskirts of Bianzhou, the dead grass on both sides of the path has become increasingly decayed due to the approaching cold winter. The trail was gradually buried by weeds because no one had visited it for a long time, and eventually it lost its appearance.
The two big men in armor each held a sword and chopped away the dead branches and weeds that blocked their progress.
"After Zhu Yougui died last year, he was buried in a cemetery in the suburbs by the order of Empress Shi Yao. Usually, people here come to burn paper money for their relatives. In the past two years, people around Bianzhou have fled famine, and they never thought that it would be ruined. Looks like this..."
The woman who presented the national jade seal yesterday followed Li Jing step by step, and at the same time spoke to him to introduce the surrounding environment.
Li Jing nodded solemnly, clasping his hands behind his back and constantly looking at the surrounding environment that looked like a place of death.
This place is different from the secret passage he and Wen Tao walked out before. The secret passage built by Wen Tao is in the mass grave. Although this place is also a cemetery, it can be regarded as a serious centralized burial place.
Today's burial site selection is not the same as in later generations. The burial site can be selected after being surveyed by a Feng Shui master. Instead, there are centralized burial places. In ancient times, people who died basically had a family-specific burial place, and then there was an official site. If the site selection is allowed to be random, it will affect the reclamation of cultivated land.
And even this place, where countless people should come to mourn their loved ones, has actually declined like this.
It can be seen that the people of the Central Plains have been lost, and what has become now.
Several women who presented the seal were all awarded the status of female officials by Li Jing, so their status was naturally different. Now being able to lead Li Jing to find Zhu Yougui's tomb can be regarded as a disguised form of intimacy.
Everyone took a few hundred steps forward and saw graves scattered around the cemetery, but they were overgrown with weeds and the stone tablets collapsed. Many grave pits were dug out extremely roughly, leaving numerous bones scattered everywhere.
Li Jing's expression was as usual, and there was nothing worth avoiding. She just continued forward led by the woman and saw a grave without a monument.
"Your Majesty, this is the tomb of Zhu Yougui, the pseudo-emperor of the former Liang Dynasty..."
Under the guidance of the woman, the two tall warriors were about to dig out the contents of the grave.
Li Jing frowned slightly, but strode forward a little closer to the pit. He could only see an unusually sparse amount of soil in the pit, revealing a straw mat underneath.
"That's all, someone has already arrived here before us."
Although he had guessed that Black and White Wuchang would come here to get the second volume of "Nine Nether Xuantian Divine Art" for the Ghost King, Li Jing still wanted to try his luck.
On the other hand, the woman behind was greatly surprised. She quickly stepped forward and looked around.
Afterwards, her expression began to look blank.
Li Jing shook his head, put his hands behind his back and turned back the way he came.
"That's all, bury this place completely. It's just a miserable person, and he deserves to end up like this."
If we say what is attractive about the Xuanming Sect, only the four great corpse ancestors have this technique.
The Ghost King has only completed the previous chapter "Nine Nethers", and already has the strength to be proud of the martial arts in the world. If he can really accidentally join forces to practice the next chapter "Xuan Tian", I'm afraid it will be quite troublesome in the future.
Although there may be black and white and impermanence fishing in troubled waters, it is also great if you can keep the skills within yourself.
According to Li Jing's idea, he planned to give "Xuan Tian" to Zhong Xiaokui to practice. According to the impression in his memory, Zhu Yougui forcibly skipped the first part to practice the second part and became obsessed with it. This should be due to gender restrictions.
"Nine Nethers" is in the hands of the Ghost King, so it is extremely masculine and has no backlash. On the other hand, after Zhu Yougui, the Emperor of the Underworld, practiced "Xuan Tian", not only did his body suffer backlash and turned into a dwarf, but he also became very yin and yang.
In addition, with Corpse Ancestor and Drought Demon by his side, we might be able to see the legendary general who created this magical skill...
With this in mind, Li Jing was not depressed at all. He does not lack such a skill. It would be great if he could get it. If he couldn't get it, he would just need to guard against the more ferocious Ghost King.
Seeing that the Holy One returned in despair, everyone naturally had no choice but to follow him again, and the remaining people buried the grave hastily.

Once there were emperors and ministers, but now we do not recognize people from the previous dynasty.
When the motorcade finally arrived in Luoyang, Shangguan Yunque thought of these words with great embarrassment.
"Old Duan, you were not like this before..."
After riding a carriage for thousands of miles, Shangguan Yunque felt as if his body was about to be scattered.
After seeing the person greeting him, he became even more confused.
Red brocade flying fish suit with four-clawed flying fish pattern, a black gauze embroidered gold futou on the head, and an embroidered spring knife on the waist. Everything about him exudes the luxurious temperament of the Royal Guards, especially this kind of attire, which only four people in the world have.
My darling, even if he is a bad person, when did the Tang Dynasty dress up like this?
Shangguan Yunque was a little bitter, but he was very consistent in teasing Duan Chengtian who was directly in front of the motorcade.
"Old Duan is so capable, but now he's become like this..."
Although Duan Chengtian's figure is slightly short and fat, because Jin Yiwei's clothes are all specially made, he looks very luxurious when wearing them. He still has the low-key and honest image of the tofu seller before.
Duan Chengtian was a little embarrassed to see his old friend, especially when he saw Shangguan Yunque, who had a good personal relationship with him, getting off the carriage, which made him cough subconsciously.
"The two adults are returning here, how come you were picked up somewhere?"
This convoy, which had nearly a hundred carts and was guarding five to six hundred people, was Hou Qing and Wen Tao, the Corpse Ancestor, who had returned all the way north.
As the direct descendant of Li Jing, although Hou Qing also wants to be free anywhere, he and Wen Tao are both given the title of commanding Qian's affairs, which can not only facilitate things, but also have fame and power. .
When they went to Wuyue, they not only got "Yi Ji Zhan" and "Qixing Jue", but Qian Miao, the king of Wu and Yue, paid a tribute of hundreds of gold and silver items to show his closeness, and wrote another letter to express his devotion to Zhengshuo of the Tang Dynasty.
As for Corpse Ancestor Hanba, he stayed in Wuyue Qiantang. He had important matters to deal with and was not allowed to return for the time being.
Although many delinquents believed that Duan Chengtian and other Luoyang delinquents had the reputation of betraying the commander-in-chief, Shangguan Yunque had always had other ideas and would not care about this. He would hold his orchid fingers and look up and down at the thousands of Jin Yiwei guards, marveling at them one after another.
"This dress is really nice and tight. I don't usually know that you, old Duan, are suitable for such a rich man's dress..."
Duan Chengtian just waved his hand to stop joking, strode forward, and saluted Hou Qing who was leaning on the carriage and Wen Tao who was standing beside him.
"I'm here to see you two adults... It's been very hard for you two adults to travel and travel a lot. With the order of sacrificing wine, I have arranged a new residence for you and welcome you into the city to rest."
Wen Tao's face hidden behind the mask just smiled and waved his hand.
"The Corpse Ancestor and I didn't waste much energy, so we didn't enter the city. We took good care of this batch of property. When we came back, we heard that the Holy Master was in Zhengzhou?"
Duan Chengtian was stunned at first, knowing in his heart that Hou Qing and Wen Tao were looking for something important for Li Jing, so he didn't ask any more questions and just laughed loudly.
"I just reported today at Chenshi. Your Majesty used surprise troops to attack hundreds of miles and conquered Bianzhou!"
Shangguan Yunque, who had been standing behind Duan Chengtian with his hands folded and watching the excitement, was startled for a moment, and then murmured involuntarily.
"Zhaozong's great revenge must be avenged..."
