Liu Wusheng's unusual behavior made Yu Huo doubt his identity again. Now he can be said to be talking to the sky and the ground, eating both sides.

On the surface, he has surrendered to Lord Ghost Chief, but secretly he is flirting with the 'Five Immortal Guards'. Such a scheming double-faced person in the city has to be on guard, how can Yu Huo be honest with him.

But now that the Bloodthirsty Bead has been obtained and it is closely related to the Corpse Sewing lineage, Yu Huoquan should just go along with the flow and accept this huge favor from Liu Wusheng.

"In this case, I won't be polite, but I, Yu Huo, never take advantage of others. If this bloodthirsty bead is really related to the three major sacrificial vessels of the Corpse Sewing lineage, I will tell you as soon as possible."

For Liu Wusheng, if he is really related to the 'Five Immortal Guards', then the progress of this blood-thirsty bead is the best information for him to seek refuge with the 'Five Immortal Guards'.

With Yu Huo's promise, Liu Wusheng's heart was cut with knife-like reluctance, and he finally felt relieved. After all, he knew that he couldn't trap a wolf if he couldn't let go of his children. If he could use the bloodthirsty beads as a bait, Yu Huo could be lured out. The three treasures in hand are worth all the investment.

Liu Wusheng regards wealth as his life. After all, he is a businessman. In terms of input-output ratio, he can be said to be very good at it. Naturally, he will spend the next time thinking about his own future.

Although he is now regarded as the Right Protector of the Yi Nest and can be said to be a popular figure around Lord Ghost Head, Lord Ghost Head, who has always been suspicious, has never trusted anyone, including Lai Changqing.

The order of the abandoned nest can be maintained to this day. In the words of Master Ghost, he never trusts anyone, including himself.

Those who work hard govern others, those who work hard govern others, those who govern others eat people, and those who govern others eat others. This is the essence of the order of the Lost Nest, and the people who create the order are the summed up by the masters of the Lost Nest in the past dynasties. The way of living.

The abandoned nest is the realm of Yin and Yang.

Let these souls living in the cracks learn how to get along with the underworld and how to keep a distance from human beings. This kind of propriety and appropriate heat allow the incense of the abandoned nest to continue, and all of this, All will be attributed to the Lord of the Lost Nest.

But this is just the wishful thinking of Lord Ghost Chief. There are countless resentful souls living in the Lost Nest, but they believe that this is the beginning of the enslavement thought of the owner of the Lost Nest, which is above democracy and freedom, and opposes the tyranny of the Lost Nest.

In order to consolidate the political power he established in the Lost Nest and maintain the existing order in the Lost Nest, Lord Ghost Leader supported the war-stopping faction headed by Lai Changqing to stabilize the order in the Lost Nest.

At the same time, in order to check and balance the expansion of Lai Changqing's power, Lord Ghost Leader supported the radical faction headed by Liu Wusheng and split the Yi's Nest forces into two, hoping to resolve the long-standing internal conflicts of the Yi's Nest.

However, a wise man will always make mistakes. Master Guishou underestimated the legacy of deep grudges and underestimated human nature.

The internal strife between Lai Changqing and Liu Wusheng caused irreparable rifts to appear in the originally precarious nest. The conflicts within the nest became more and more intense, putting the nest on the verge of subversion. This is what the Ghost Leader least wants to see.

"The world belongs to the abandoned nest, and humans...will eventually belong to our slaves!"

Facing the lighthouse, Master Guishou touched a skull and said in a low voice. The face under the mask trembled a few times.

In order to change this situation, Lord Ghost Leader secretly supported a new force, and this person was Wu Ya.

Lai Changqing is the left guardian of the Yichao, and the right guardian is Liu Wusheng. In order to weaken the two spheres of influence, the ghost leader re-activated the ghost hunting organization at the expense of clever names. The person in charge of this organization is Wu Ya, the ghost leader. Handcrafted.

Although Wu Ya's current status is behind the left and right guardians, he has the power second only to Lord Ghost Head, especially in the area of ​​killing and killing. It can be said that one person is inferior to ten thousand people.

Wu Ya, who was hiding in the dark, had Shang Fang's sword handed down by Lord Ghost Head, which made everyone in the Yichao panic and uneasy. Everyone was in danger and was unwilling to offend the new talker.

Although Lai Changqing and Liu Wusheng were very powerful, they were deeply uneasy because of Wu Ya's appearance. After all, the spirit hunting organization had always killed people without leaving any behind.

This was also the reason why Liu Wusheng tried every means to contact the 'Five Immortal Guards'. He racked his brains so much that he was naturally looking for a way out for himself.

If the life-killing Dzi Bead is related to the three major sacrificial vessels of the Corpse Sewing lineage, as a direct descendant of the Corpse Sewing lineage, Yu Huo has no reason not to find the secret of this Dzi Bead. To find out the use of this Dzi Bead, it is natural that he needs to re-examine it. Returning to the wormhole, perhaps the truth lies beneath the underground river.

But the wormhole has collapsed and the underground river has disappeared. How can we find those headless man pupae submerged by the surging river water?

Faced with this problem, Yu Huo suddenly thought of one person, that was Xuanmen, a branch of the Corpse Exorcist sect.

Xuanmen was originally a member of the Corpse Exorcist Sect, but due to internal political struggles, he was kicked out of the Corpse Exorcist Sect and disappeared for a long time. In order to consolidate the Corpse Exorcist Sect's position in the world, there was even a division There will be a bloody fight between the two families, and they must be killed as soon as possible.

However, these people who are good at hanging corpses upside down, in order to preserve the bloodline of Xianghuo and the continuation of the unique Tantric sect of hanging corpses, have escaped the pursuit of the corpse exorcists, and finally survived, and secretly developed and expanded.

The hanging corpse in the wormhole was obviously made by these people, but whose handwriting is unknown.

The key to finding these people lies in Liu Wusheng, because he comes from the Corpse Exorcist sect. Although he has been kicked out of the school long ago, he can't get rid of the fact that he studied under the Corpse Exorcist sect.

"If these beads are really related to the three major sacrificial vessels of the Corpse Sewing Lineage, then the two sects of Corpse Sewing and Corpse Exorcism must have been inextricably linked back then."

Yu Huo's speculation made Liu Wusheng somewhat unwilling to admit it, but it was undeniable that there had been a shameful internal fight among the corpse exorcism sect. He then said, "You mean the hanging door?"

"Apart from them, who else has the skills to remove corpses and hang them at the same time?"

Yu Huo's rhetorical question made Liu Wusheng unable to argue and said, "I have ceased to be a disciple of the master's sect a long time ago. I know nothing about these people."

"But this is the only clue that can crack the secret of these beads."

Liu Wusheng didn't know what Yu Huo said. The person who found the hanging door was indeed the only way to decipher these dzi beads.

After thinking for a moment, Liu Wusheng finally compromised and said with some reluctance: "Maybe there is someone who knows, but he was also kicked out of the school."

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go."

Yu Huo said, having started the engine, there was no other way at the moment, Quan was treating a dead horse as a living horse, Liu Wusheng shook his head helplessly, feeling coerced by the idea of ​​driving a duck to the shelf, he finally jumped into the car. .

Liu Wusheng led the way, and the two finally arrived at Nanjiang in Jianghai Nancheng. There were obvious geographical differences between this place and Jiangbei, which made the folk customs between the north and the south completely different.

Jianghai looks east and west across the river, but the north and south are cut off by dense forest mountains with an altitude of more than 1,300 meters. The top of the mountain is where the Feathered Chicken Fairy is, which makes the two places incompatible with each other in terms of humanities, landforms, food and daily life.

It is this cultural difference that makes Jiangbei prosperous and bustling, while also adapting to Nanjiang's tranquility and lack of contention.

The slow pace of Nanjiang has given rise to a lot of decay in this land, and it is this atmosphere that makes the seemingly peaceful streets and alleys perfect places for harboring dirt and evil. Nanjiang Water Street is one of them. one of them.

Jiang Hai drove straight to Pozi Street. After getting off the car, Yu Huo looked around. Not far away, there were sparse passers-by. Compared with the busy traffic in Jiangbei, it seemed like he was in a deserted land.

A gust of wind blew by, and Yu Huo straightened his messy clothes. Walking on the moss-covered stone streets, he could clearly feel the silence and depression here.

It is an old house with Jiangnan Water Street style. The glazed tiles that have gone through time are suffused with obsolescence. The narrow alleys are desolate and depressing, giving people an inexplicable feeling of suffocation, and this feeling is very strange.

Deep in the corner of the alley, a few wild cats that were originally looking for food saw someone approaching. They took aim a few times, fled in various directions, and then disappeared without a trace.

Nanjiang Water Street has a good reputation, but because of some bizarre and strange things that have happened, the originally lively place has become as dead as a ghost street.

The aborigines who live here have long since sold their land and fled here with their money. The only ones left behind are those who left here without the conditions to bring their families, or outsiders who are not familiar with the world.

It is this kind of polarized environment, and the population mobility is so high that fish, snakes, and all kinds of birds are mixed together.

And the person Liu Wusheng was talking about was hiding here.

The reason why this person chose this place to hide in the city and hide in the wild was simply to avoid being chased by the zombie exorcism sect.

Although he now has nothing to do with the corpse exorcism sect, or even with Xuanmen, he is still hiding here in order to survive, just to continue the incense of Xuanmen, nothing more.

In order to gain this person's trust, Liu Wusheng took out the zombie sect's token as soon as they met him and pulled off the large earring from his right ear.

For the Corpse Exorcists, earrings are both tokens and decorations, and more importantly, they are the medals and honor of the Corpse Exorcists.

Seeing the token, the old man who was repairing someone's shoes paused unnaturally for a moment, but soon lowered his head and continued busy with his work.

"Grandpa, can my earrings be repaired?"

Liu Wusheng spoke secret words. As long as he was a member of the corpse exorcism sect, in order to prevent outsiders from noticing, he would use some secret words that outsiders did not know when communicating, and Liu Wusheng naturally knew these routines.

Seeing someone using tokens and speaking secret words, the old man couldn't hide his excitement, but he couldn't show it too much, because now he has long since stopped caring about worldly affairs, and the only reason he lives in the world is to continue the art of hanging doors. .

"It costs five yuan to repair shoes, two yuan to match the keys, three yuan to twist the trousers, but I don't want to repair the earrings. I don't have the ability..."

"The hanging pot can help the world, take care of the common people, turn the clouds and rain, and can also bring peace to the world..."

Liu Wusheng got straight to the point and mentioned Xuanmen's founding slogan, which touched the old man somewhat, but he shook his head and sighed: "No, no... Go, go..."

What Liu Wusheng said was jargon, and what the old man replied was naturally argot. People in the sect could naturally understand what it meant, but Yu Huo was kept in the dark.

"What is this old guy talking about?"

"He said... he could take us back to the wormhole."
