In the Heavens

You can't bully people too much, Li Mu also very much agrees with this, but it doesn't mean you can't bully the centipede.

Hearing Cihang Pudu's clamor, Li Mu also put away his playful heart, and directly chopped off his huge head with a sword. Grab his soul and start searching for his soul.

After a while, Li Mu sighed helplessly. Now he finally understood why Cihang Pudu possessed a body of Dharma cultivation, and why he dared to risk the world's displeasure by rushing to draw Dragon Qi's attention.

It's not that Cihang Pudu is a tough guy, nor is it because he was born as a wild monster, ignorant and fearless, but because his memory has been tampered with, making him think that as long as he captures the Dragon Qi of the National Luck, he can turn into a dragon.

He tried to open Cihang Pudu's sealed memory, and the people behind the scenes, hiding in his primordial spirit, broke out immediately. Even if Li Mu tried to stop it, it could not prevent the centipede's memory from being destroyed.

However, it was not completely fruitless. Through his incomplete memory, Li Mu still grasped some key words such as "Spirit Mountain", "Scripture", "Apocalypse of Doom", and "Extraterritorial World".

After analyzing the information collected one after another, Li Mu roughly figured out what was going on.

First, Cihang Pudu is not a wild monster, it is very likely that it was a pet raised by a certain Buddha, or was born in a spiritual mountain.

In short, this is a monster with heels, and his Dharma cultivation is the proof. Dare to pretend to be Buddha, that is the evil result of memory being sealed. In other words, someone wanted to disgust the Buddha and did it on purpose.

Second, the fact that all the gods and Buddhas left this world at the same time was not simply due to the poison of spiritual energy, but more likely because of the "Dharma-ending calamity".

Having stayed in the world of Xiaoao, Li Mu knows very well what will happen when the world of practice enters the age of doomsday. Once the world falls into recession, none of the gods and Buddhas in the sky can escape.

The heavens and the earth shepherd all living beings, and they also feed on all living beings. At that point, no matter what kind of fairy gods and monsters, nothing can avoid nirvana.

If you don't want to die, you can only run away first. The gods and Buddhas had already begun to prepare for the retreat, and the outbreak of the poison of spiritual energy only brought this time forward.

Third, the current chaotic world of monsters is not just the natural evolution of the heavens and the earth, but also the behind-the-scenes driving forces of the immortals and Buddhas.

It is not only to retaliate against the human nature to create the poison of spiritual energy, forcing them to evacuate early, but also to promote the early coming of the Dharma-ending era.

We still have feelings for this world. Not only did they raise them, but also because the world level was high enough to produce a large amount of cultivation resources.

Anyway, the coming of the Dharma-ending Age cannot be avoided, so we should simply push forward and let the Dharma-ending Age begin earlier so that it can end sooner.

If it succeeds, the world will be reborn from the ashes, and everyone will come back and continue to be the ancestor; if it fails, everyone will develop in the new world with peace of mind, and when the world of Liaozhai falls into extinction, seize the origin of the world and strengthen the foundation of the new world.

Fourth, there are still many backhands arranged by the immortals and Buddhas. What is discovered now is only the tip of the iceberg, and it will continue to be activated in the future.

There is no way, he is the local snake, after countless years of business, how can there be no shortage of hard work?

...

The more you know, the more you know how to be in awe. Li Mu, who was originally planning to send troops to sweep the Three Realms, has decided to slow down now.

Since the Immortals and Buddhas are going to postpone the arrival of the Dharma-Ending Age ahead of time, then simply fulfill them. The reincarnation of the world not only takes a lot of time, but is also full of risks.

Once the age of doomsday begins, the control of the gods and Buddhas in the sky will completely return to zero.

Transcendental death has nothing to do with Li Mu. Anyway, he was neither born in this world, nor absorbed a trace of aura from this world, so there is no cause and effect. It is not difficult to block the heaven and earth induction.

At that time, no matter how much noise he makes, it is impossible for the gods and Buddhas in the sky to come back and interfere at the risk of being swallowed by the world.

After glancing at the huge corpse of the centipede, Li Mu finally put out the idea of ​​using it to make wine. It is really too big, no wine jar can hold it.

Just as he was about to feed this guy to the Yin soldiers, he saw Qiu Yiye popping up, bowed to Li Mu and said, "Senior, your supernatural powers..."

Before he could continue flattering, Li Mu interrupted with a wave of his hand: "Stop! It's useless to stop talking about it, you kid is also a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and dares to join in any excitement. Don't you know that curiosity killed the cat?

If you come earlier and are affected by the aftermath of the battle, even if you don't die, you will lose half your life. "

There is nothing wrong with it, Zhiqiu Yiye's cultivation base and centipede spirit can do two tricks, but it is nothing to him.

In the movie, this guy died at the hands of Cihang Pudu because of his lack of academic skills. Now that the desire to join in the fun is so strong, sooner or later he will die because of it.

It's not that Li Mu's Madonna had a heart attack, but mainly because in this era of moral decline, there are not many people who can be called good people, and Zhiqiu Yiye is undoubtedly one of them.

Embarrassed, Zhi Qiu Yiye bowed to Li Mu in embarrassment: "Thank you for your reminder, senior!"

Then he asked: "Senior, I don't know where this evil centipede is, but it was born so huge?"

A 100-meter-long centipede is a proper giant. Even though Zhiqiu Yiye is a practitioner, he was frightened by this thing.

After rolling his eyes, Li Mu said angrily: "What else could it be, except for those bald donkeys, who would make such a disgusting thing!

The world ahead will become even more chaotic. You kid, don't hang around outside, lest you lose your life.

Either go back to the mountain to cultivate, or go to my Taoist temple to make an order, and occasionally deal with a few little demons and ghosts. "

Recruiting Zhiqiu Yiye was not a whim. Although his cultivation base is nothing, the Kunlun School's inheritance of Taoism is still good.

Perhaps Li Mu can also research it, but it will take a lot of time, and it is far better to use ready-made methods for reference.

As a senior with integrity, Li Mu couldn't do anything to steal, so he could only recruit people back first.

Later, I will use the opportunity of pointing out the cultivation base to figure out the method of performing exercises. When one's cultivation has reached Li Mu's level, the cheats are actually not important anymore.

Li Mu is very interested in not only Zhiqiu Yiye, but also the remaining orthodoxy of various gods.

No matter which side of the world you are in, knowledge is always the most precious wealth. In Li Mu's view, the value of these things is not weaker than the origin of the world.

Even if it is incomplete basic knowledge, it can strengthen the background and save a lot of time for future practice.

Zhiqiu Yiye hesitated and said: "Thank you for your kindness, senior! Well, this junior still likes to practice by himself, so..."

Being rejected, Li Mu didn't feel surprised. When everyone is young and arrogant, the current Zhiqiu Yiye obviously lacks social beatings.

Li Mu waved his hands generously, not intending to force others into difficulties: "That's all! Everyone has their own fate, there is no need to force yourself."

Anyone can change the world without it. Although the inheritance of the Kunlun School is of reference value, it is not Li Mu's only choice.

Putting the centipede corpse into the magic weapon, Li Mu turned around and disappeared from Zhiqiu Yiye's sight. Ning Caichen, who came a step late, happened to see a phantom.

If he wants to ask to stay, there is no trace of Li Mu. Shaking his head helplessly, Ning Caichen secretly lamented that he had no celestial fate.

All of this is naturally not hidden from Li Mu, but the protagonist Ning Caichen is useless now, and it is not worth his time to continue wasting.

You need talent but no talent, you need strength but no strength. The main character, who is purely a penniless scholar, has no need to recruit at all.

In a blink of an eye, Li Mu had already entered the prison cell, looked at the lazily lying old man, and greeted him jokingly: "I never thought that the famous Zhuge Wolong would look like this now!"

Frankly speaking, this man's life was indeed a tragedy. Unfortunately, he was born in the troubled times of Liaozhai and suffered the cruelest social beatings.

"Writing travel notes on mountains and rivers, leaking state secrets.

Writing strange and ancient stories leads people to superstition.

Annotating the book of war, plotting wrongdoing, and attempting to rebel.

Write celebrity biographies, celebrities lose power, implicate and go to jail. "

It's really admirable that the world has become so rotten. Zhuge Wolong's life may be the best interpretation of the darkness in the world of Liaozhai.

Rules, that is, there are no rules. In a word: "If you say you are, you are not." If you want to impose a crime, there is no excuse.

As for the talent, Li Mu is not sure, anyway, he has a great reputation. Even if you don't have the ability to govern one party, it is enough to act as a pen.

Having been exposed by Li Mudao, Zhuge Wolong asked suspiciously: "Who are you? Why are you looking for a bad old man like me?"

My family members know their own affairs, although they have a great reputation in the outside world, but that is all a false name.

In normal times, everyone would only praise him at most, and there were very few big figures who really took him seriously.

Looking at his ups and downs in the first half of his life, he knew that Zhuge Wolong was a master without much foundation. Otherwise, it is absolutely impossible to end up in jail.

"It doesn't matter who I am! The main thing I want to ask you is to tell you that there is a lack of documents in the underworld, and you can try to get them.

Maybe if you pass the assessment, you can even become a ghost and god, so you don't have to linger here! "

Competence is very important, and it was the early days of entrepreneurship. At this point, it would be embarrassing to continue playing like that.

If it weren't for the tragic experience of Zhuge Wolong, it was too magical, which aroused Li Mu's curiosity, and he didn't even bother to come here.

Fortunately, Zhuge Wolong also has some insight, if it is on Tong Tong's body, he will definitely go crazy when he hears Li Mu's words. "Lack of people in the underworld" is obviously not a good word, and it is clearly a curse for early death.

After staring at Li Mu for a while, Zhuge Wolong gave Li Mu a salute and said, "Thank you for telling me, Daoist!

But as far as the old man knows: the underworld has already collapsed. The current chaos in the human world is largely a sequela of the collapse of the underworld. "

What Zhuge Wolong said was the truth, Li Mu was not unhappy with this doubt. If he chooses to agree in a few words, he will doubt the identity of the old man in front of him.

"It's broken, but it can be rebuilt. As long as the six realms of reincarnation are still there, then everything is possible."

As soon as the words fell, Li Mu had disappeared into the prison. Curiosity is satisfied, naturally there is no need to stay in such a ghostly place.

As for the matter of Zhuge Wolong, there will be subordinates to deal with it. Now there is a severe shortage of manpower in the small underworld, not only Zhuge Wolong, but all capable dead souls are within the scope of recruitment.

Of course, in addition to talent, merit and karma must also be checked. Don't expect all ghosts and gods to have merit, at least not to be entangled in karma, this is the foundation of the underworld.

...

The Ghost Festival is approaching, and the underworld is gradually boiling up. The ghosts all over the place seemed to have taken a stimulant, and became active one after another, trying to find a chance to return to the human world.

In the small underworld, there is an exam that will determine the fate of countless dead souls. If you succeed, you will become a ghost official, jumping out of the cycle of heaven and earth, if you fail, you will become an ordinary ghost in the underworld, waiting for the day of reincarnation.

As the boss, Li Mu inspected the examination room and after confirming that no one was cheating, he satisfactorily acted as the melon-eating crowd.

Shinto is the maintainer of order, and the most important thing is the rules. Although the Yin Division has just been established, there are quite a few related rules.

Civil servants in the underworld basically never retire, and their working hours are measured in units of calamity once they take office. Talent selection must be strict.

Fortunately, most of the invigilating officials are from the Great Wilderness World. There is no intertwined interests here, and the possibility of bending the law for personal gain is very small. The future is hard to say.

Perhaps after the local government grows and develops, it can engage in cross-border proctoring, or even simply take a job across borders, completely breaking all possible nepotism.

When Li Mu was deep in thought, a middle-aged judge came forward and reported: "Your Majesty, I just received the news from the wandering envoy that various demonic forces are gathering troops and horses, and it seems that they are going to make a big move. Preliminary analysis, It may have something to do with the approaching Ghost Festival."

In Liaozhai World, Ghost Festival is a special day. On this day, the power of the enchantment between the yin and yang realms will be weakened, and some areas can even be directly connected to form ghost gates.

Countless dead souls with unresolved obsessions will return to the human world on this day to end their fate. At the same time, it is also a good opportunity for all kinds of evil spirits to forage.

In the past, when the order of heaven and earth had not collapsed, there were underworld, heaven, Buddha, and Taoism, and ghosts and monsters who dared to mess around would be strangled and rarely caused major disturbances.

In the past hundred years, the situation has changed. The defenders of order no longer exist, and every ghost festival is a disaster in the human world.

After the helpless ghosts enter the human world, they will never return, staying in the mortal world to cause disaster.

In order to solve this problem, the surviving Buddhist and Taoist monks joined forces to seal the seal decades ago to prevent the souls of the dead from returning to the human world.

Obviously, this is only a temporary solution, not a permanent cure. With the passage of time, the power of the seal is also constantly decreasing.

Affected by the poison of spiritual energy, practitioners of the older generation have emerged one after another, and the strength of the practice world has been greatly reduced.

If the monsters in the underworld want to take the opportunity to invade, the remaining power of the righteous way will definitely be unstoppable. Whether or not to block it is a tangled question.

Feeling the aura of catastrophe in the world, and looking up at the sky, Li Mu said slowly: "The catastrophe in the human world has already begun.

Tian Xingjian, a gentleman strives for self-improvement. This catastrophe can only be overcome by themselves.

Pass the order down, don't interfere with the actions of demons and ghosts. After they entered the human world, they immediately took action to lock the gate of the underworld, not giving them a chance to return. "

The consequences of the butterfly effect have already begun. Perhaps it was because Da Nengcha, who was behind the scenes, sensed that the situation was not good, took action in advance, and pushed it until the outbreak of the war between good and evil.

It just happened to catch up with the Dynasty Geding, and the superposition of the two phases directly pushed the calamity to a peak, and then it was the time of the calamity in the human world.

The general trend is like this, and no one can stop it. There are countless entrances to the human world, and there is simply no way to block them. Li Mu has always kept a respectful distance from such things that do twice the result with half the effort.

The ghosts and goblins in the underworld are about to leave, but he is worried about how to rule the underworld. Now is the best opportunity, as long as these guys dare to leave, there is no need to come back.

The human world seems beautiful, but the most suitable environment for ghosts to live in is the underworld after all. Don't look at these demons and ghosts who are invincible now. Once they lose their foundation in the underworld, they can't expect to make any progress in their cultivation.
