From the earliest days, I always believed that the real power of a talisman comes from its carrier, which is yellow paper, cinnabar and other evil-repelling talismans.
Only when I was able to break away from the shackles of the talisman paper and condense the virtual talisman on my own did I discover that the real power of the talisman came from the runes that made it up.
Because the runes that make up the evil-suppressing talisman are, to put it bluntly, some of the most basic symbols. These symbols have existed since ancient times. It was only later that some Taoist practitioners gradually combined them together to create talismans for various purposes.
The evil-suppressing talisman is full of masculinity and has a natural suppression effect on evil spirits. However, precisely because of its characteristics, once used, it is easily discovered by some powerful evil spirits.
If I were to use the evil-suppressing talisman in the ghost city in normal times, there would definitely be great risks.
However, after I devoured the Unsinkable Corpse Soul Bead, I already had a steady stream of cold energy in my body.
And these cold and cold energy can cover up the masculine energy of the evil-suppressing talisman, which also gives me the opportunity to secretly attack the Thousand-Handed Ghost General.
Thick cold air, mixed with endless corpse energy, swept towards the Thousand-Handed Ghost General in an endless stream.
The Thousand-Handed Ghost General snorted coldly, and instantly blocked the various weapons in his arms in front of him, intending to avoid being swallowed by the corpse energy.
Little did he know that when he was trying his best to deal with the corpse energy I released, an evil-suppressing talisman had been shot above his head.
Boom!
The evil-suppressing talisman was like a bolt of lightning, suddenly hitting the Thousand-Handed Ghost General's head. The Thousand-Handed Ghost General immediately let out a scream, and his huge body suddenly shrank sharply. After a while, it had returned to its original size.
He collapsed on the ground, and a crack appeared on the top of his head, and gurgling black gas continued to come out of it.
"Accepted!"
After confirming that the Thousand-Handed Ghost General had no strength to fight anymore, I put away my corpse energy and said calmly.
The Thousand-Handed Ghost General looked up at me. In his ghost eyes, in addition to shock and fear, there was endless resentment.
Until now, he still hasn't understood how he was defeated by me.
And this is exactly the effect I want to achieve. No matter what you say, if you lose, you lose. This is enough for me.
Seeing the Thousand-Handed Ghost General's defeat at the hands of a foreign corpse clan like me, the ghost generals on both sides of the hall were stunned and speechless.
Only the weak-bellied ghost general gave me a thumbs up and smiled broadly.
"Hahaha, good job, Brother Corpse Demon!"
"Qianju, Qianju, my corpse demon brother can even defeat the Earth Dragon King. How can you be his opponent? Are you bringing humiliation on yourself now?"
Faced with the ridicule of the weak-bellied ghost general, the Thousand-Handed Ghost General was so angry that he was shaking all over, but he had no choice but to struggle to get up and bow his hands to the hornet Yin Shuai.
"Lord City Lord, my subordinates have been defeated!"
During the competition between me and the Thousand-Hand Ghost General, Shuang Huang Yin Shuai had been paying close attention to the situation on the field. I am not sure whether he saw the scene where I used the Evil Suppression Talisman just now.
Hearing that the Thousand-Handed Ghost General had admitted defeat, Huang Shuai didn't say anything, he just waved his hand and smiled faintly.
"Qianju, you were a little careless just now, but you also fully demonstrated your strength. In my eyes, you have not lost."
"Don't be sad, I will have more important duties for you to take on."
Huang Shuai's sinister words gave the Thousand-Handed Ghost General enough face. He calmed down a little and said respectfully: "Thank you, sir!"
Then he stepped aside and said no more words.
Only then did Xing Shuai turn his head and focus on me.
"Very good, Mr. Corpse Demon, your performance today has indeed opened my eyes. I never expected that there is a number one figure like you in the land of the dead outside."
"I declare that from now on, you will be the Corpse Demon General of our Emperor Song City. Together with the Void Belly Ghost General, you will be the right-hand man of my Wasp. Under one person, above ten thousand people, how about that?"
I quickly said: "Thank you City Lord for your grace, the little devil will definitely do his best for Song Emperor City, and he will not hesitate to do so!"
The handsome hornet laughed proudly: "Hahaha, okay, okay!"
"Today, I have gained another great general. It seems that my city, Emperor Song, is about to turn around. Those bastards who look down on me, you will regret it soon!"
Huang Shuai Yin Shuai gritted his teeth and finished the last sentence, then waved his hand and said: "Second Ghost!"
"My subordinate is here!"
On the left side of the hall, a ghost messenger came out in response and stood in front of Yin Shuai.
Huang Shuai then asked: "Two months ago, I asked you to be responsible for expanding the troops. How are the preparations now?"
The second ghost envoy hurriedly said: "Sir, for the past two months, my subordinates have been working hard at night, not daring to relax for a moment. They have tried their best to recruit troops and recruit ghosts..."
"So far, our ghost soldiers have expanded to 20,000."
When Huang Shuai heard this, he immediately showed dissatisfaction: "It took two months to recruit 20,000 soldiers? What do you do for food!"
Under the cold gaze of the handsome hornet, the second ghost trembled with fright, and his speech became stammering.
"Sir, please listen to my subordinate's explanation. I have indeed been recruiting troops according to your instructions, but..."
Huang Shuai said angrily: "What's wrong? Say it!"
The second ghost envoy said in a trembling voice: "However, there are only a few hundred thousand ghost citizens in our Song Emperor City, and less than half of them have acquaintances and connections in the military or yamen. According to regulations, these ghost citizens only need to pay a certain amount of materials. You will be exempted from military service."
"The rest are poor people. They are neither willing to serve in the army nor can they provide supplies. Even if their subordinates drain their three souls and seven souls, they really can't get more soldiers."
After listening to the second ghost's complaint, Huang Yinshuai did not continue to lose his temper, but began to think deeply.
"In this way, if there are not enough ghosts in this city, you can go outside and capture some lonely ghosts. No matter what method you use, you must gather 50,000 ghost soldiers before the end of next month!"
"If you can't do it, I'll ask you!"
The second ghost didn't dare to say anything more and could only respond: "Yes, my subordinates must follow your instructions and complete the task on time!"
The hornet Yin Shuai waved his hand, and the second ghost envoy was immediately relieved and hurried back to the team of ghost generals next to him.
Now that I am considered a member of the top management of Song Emperor City, I can take this opportunity to understand why Yin Cao is so anxious to attack Yang Shi.
Thinking of this, I took the first step and walked up to Yin Shuai.
"Sir, this subordinate is new here and I don't quite understand why you want to expand the ghost soldiers on a large scale?"
"After all, the terrain of our Song Emperor City is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack, so we don't need so many ghost soldiers to guard it, right?"
Huang Shuai glanced at me, smiled faintly, and his eyes were deep.
