Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 416 Red and White Demons
"Everyone, line up according to the Big Dipper and wait for the altar I will build. You will be the soldiers and Hang Sui will be the general. Follow my orders. Those who disobey... will be beheaded!!"

Xiao Ran walked to Li Jie's side, looked around at everyone, and swept over them with sharp eyes. Even Hang Sui felt frightened.

But afterwards, Hang Sui felt extremely relieved: "He is indeed an extraordinary person. My life is safe!"

Hang Sui thought of this, reached out and touched the [God-Locking Whip] in his hand, and the haze in his heart was suddenly swept away.

He strode forward with a group of people, crossed his hands and bowed in front of Xiao Ran: "Yes, sir!"

Hang Sui took the lead, and even if the others felt something was wrong, they had no choice but to bow down.

Following Xiao Ran's command, the students stood in groups of three in the shape of the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper, lined up in rows.

As time passed, things outside suddenly became quiet.

Xiao Ran closed his eyes and rested, not in a hurry at all, but the other escorts could no longer hold back and began to whisper.

They also saw that Xiao Ran was a capable person, but they always felt that following this person might not guarantee their survival.

"Sir, we are not familiar with each other. Although we are on the same boat, I always feel that something is wrong."

"Didn't you see how Master Hang was holding the baby and couldn't let it go? I think Master Hang was blinded by his greed."

"This place is spooky. We should be more careful."

No matter how small the trivial voices were, they could not withstand the presence of many people. Hang Sui, who was happily holding the [God-Locking Whip], frowned when he heard his brothers' whispers.

But he did not scold her. Instead, he glanced at Xiao Ran cautiously.

Seeing that Xiao Ran didn't move, with his eyes closed, he calmed down and waited patiently.

Around the early hours of the morning, Xiao Ran opened his eyes and looked outside the door.

I don't know when it started to drizzle outside.

The rain sounded like it was getting heavier.

Li Jie was a little surprised. He remembered that he hid in a box when he came here last time. But he also knew that it would not rain in the village at night.

Why is it suddenly raining again?

Just when Li Jie was confused.

The surrounding houses began to decay rapidly, almost at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Look!!"

Yellow muddy water began to seep out of the ground, and a strong fishy smell filled the air.

I could see more and more muddy water overflowing from under the floor tiles around me.

"I don't want to play anymore. I want to leave. I want to leave."

An escort suddenly jumped out, stood up and ran out the door.

Everyone wanted to call him but it was too late.

But just as he rushed out of the room two steps, his body began to rot in front of everyone's horrified eyes. The flesh and blood on his body began to drip off his body like a burnt candle. In just a breath of time, only a skeleton was left on his body, scattered in the dim, muddy water.

Seeing this scene, the muscles of the other escorts who still wanted to escape stiffened, and some even took one foot out and were hanging in the air.

"Why panic?"

When Xiao Ran's voice came, everyone was certain. They turned around and saw Xiao Ran looking at the yellow water gushing out from all around. He snorted coldly: "If this is all you have, you'd better withdraw your magical power and go back to hug your child."

As he spoke, corpse energy surged from Xiao Ran's body. He formed seals with his hands and stomped his feet hard on the ground.

Suddenly, corpse gas rose up, and in a flash, a huge pool of corpses appeared and covered the feet of everyone.

For a moment, the overflowing yellow water and the corpse gas collided with each other, forming a delicate balance that was difficult to distinguish.

Corpse evil is also evil. So many people have died in this place, and it is already littered with corpses.

Hongbai caused evil with hatred, so I used the corpse qi to cause evil, which just counteracted it. One drink and one bite were exactly the cause and effect.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Ran took out the [Evil-Suppressing Order] from the space but did not activate it. Instead, he threw it into the corpse pool at his feet as a talisman.

The Taoist priest from Yinshan Mountain once said that when fighting against evil spirits, the first thing to look at is the talisman. The magic has only a form, and it is the talisman that determines the changes in the properties of the magic.

I use the [Zhen'e Order] as a talisman because it is the most suitable thing for the corpse evil.

"rise!"

Xiao Ran took it with both hands, and suddenly the corpse pool under his feet began to spin. The rolling corpse gas rushed up to the sky, breaking through the rotten roof, and even dyed the rain falling from the sky into dark black rain.

Now the noise outside was even louder.

Everyone only heard bursts of suona sounds, coming from far away and gradually getting closer. Their heads were buzzing and their chests felt like they were being pressed by a stone, making it hard to breathe.

All they saw in front of them was a red light surging, and their skin and flesh were itching all over their bodies.

Some people couldn't help but reach out to scratch it, but the more they scratched, the more itchy it became.

"do not move!"

Seeing this, Xiao Ran pinched his fingers, and saw corpse qi rolling over everyone.

All of a sudden, everyone felt cold all over. Not only did the itching sensation on their bodies disappear immediately, but even the sound of the suona was no longer affected at all.

"It really works. Using corpse qi to activate evil is a perfect combination. I don't know how much effort it saves. Even this corpse technique, half-Yang, can be manipulated at will."

Xiao Ran was secretly delighted in his heart. The combination of the magic of exorcism and the corpse pool was simply too useful.

Then his eyes became bright.

"Since you won't come out, I will put on a big show for you."

"Give me the red cloth in your hands."

Xiao Ran said to Hang Sui and others.

Upon hearing this, Hang Sui and his companions did not dare to hesitate at all. Xiao Ran's methods were beyond their comprehension. Whether they could survive depended entirely on this gentleman.

They immediately took out the red cloth in their hands and handed it to Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran took out the needle and thread and quickly sewed the red cloth together.

No one knew what he was doing. They just watched Xiao Ran sew very quickly, as if he was making a piece of clothing.

Seeing this, the second in command was used to it. After all, when he was in Huolong Village, Xiao Ran usually helped the people in Huolong Village sew clothes.

The craftsmanship was truly unique. Even though the villagers in the village looked down on Xiao Ran, they had to praise his craftsmanship and found it absolutely flawless.

In a moment, Xiao Ran had sewed all the red cloths together.

As the red cloth was sewn together, Xiao Ran looked at the second in command.

"You come."

"Hey, sir, what do you want me to do?"

The second in command asked this question, but his eyes were fixed on the thing that Xiao Ran had sewn in his hands.

It was not a piece of clothing, but a huge cloth bag.

"Hold it, stand here, hold the bag open, and don't let go no matter what you see."

"it is good!"

The second in command didn't dare to ask more questions. He just nodded and obediently opened the blood-red bag.

"You're sure you can't come out, right?"

Xiao Ran shouted towards the door, but when there was no response, he curled his lips, walked up to the second in command, and took out a handful of Yin banknotes from the space.

Then make a seal with your hands.

"Yin and Yang are in order, Qian Kun has its own rules, all things are born and die, ghosts are governed, Tian Qi Da Sheng Ren Sheng Great Emperor urgently issues an order, pardon!"

As Xiao Ran chanted the spell, the Yin Notes in his hand spontaneously combusted, turning into wisps of green smoke that went into the cloth bag in the hands of the second in command.

As the green smoke slowly surged in the cloth bag, a black shadow suddenly rushed out from the void in front of his eyes and pounced straight towards the second in command.

The second in command instinctively wanted to hide, but Xiao Ran behind him raised his hand and pushed on his back: "Don't retreat, raise your hands."

Upon hearing this, the second in command raised his hands without having time to think.

With a "whoosh" sound, I felt something seemed to get into the cloth bag in my hand.

It seems like a rabbit jumping around in there.

"Hold it, don't let go!"

Xiao Ran patted the second in command on the shoulder and continued to throw the burning [Yin Banknotes] into the room one by one.

After a while, the cloth bag was like a stove, with thick smoke billowing out.

Immediately afterwards, the second one, the third one, more and more dark shadows rushed over from all directions and kept getting into the pocket.

The second in command felt that the weight in the bag was getting heavier and heavier, and couldn't help but ask carefully: "Master, they won't burst the bag, will they?"

"No, this bag is made of their skin. They can't break it."

The human skin in this cloth bag was supposed to be used to make clothes for the groom.

It is conceivable that the groom's final fate would be to be eaten to pieces by hundreds of ghosts.

But now Xiao Ran made it into a cloth bag, using [Yin Banknotes] as bait, and in a moment it was filled with those evil spirits.

Although the Red and White Devils are powerful, if Xiao Ran drains all the ghosts and evil spirits here, then this evil situation will be difficult to maintain.

It is really like cutting off the fuel from under the cauldron.

Sure enough, Xiao Ran's actions immediately caused movement outside the house.

Suddenly, a series of jingle bells were heard, and outside the house, a group of barefoot children wearing bellybands ran out.

These dolls look no more than one year old, with thick makeup on their faces. They run and jump, singing songs.

"Red lanterns shine, the bride and groom are in mourning, the suona plays and everything is in vain. Thousands of miles away, thousands of graves, weeping and laughing."

The sentence structure of this word is incoherent and contradictory, but when it is recited by these fat kids, it feels very strange.

As soon as these kids rushed in, Hang Sui glared at them and said, "Get out of here, you bastards!"

Without waiting for the doll to get close, he swung the [God-Locking Whip] in his hand and hit the doll in front of him on the head.

However, the [God-Locking Whip] that had made the fat woman scream just now seemed to have lost its effect at this moment. It passed directly through the fat woman's body without causing any harm.

"this!!"

Seeing that the treasure in his hand had no effect, Hang Sui's face darkened and he quickly drew the sword from his waist.

However, the fat baby just grinned and climbed directly onto Hang Sui's body.

In an instant, Hang Sui's eyes blurred and scenes unconsciously emerged in his mind.

These pictures all show Hang Sui killing people.

Not only murder, but all the shameful things he had done over the years were exposed.

Every single incident is outrageous.

When Hang Sui came to his senses, he fell heavily to the ground. The doll behind him had swelled to the size of a hill, crushing him to the point where he couldn't breathe.

The rest of the bodyguards were not much better. Over the years, in order to find top-quality blood pills for the nobles in Chang'an, their hands were stained with the blood of countless people.

These evildoers who had been hiding from the light of day have now been absorbed by these dolls and have become as fat as pigs.

"Sir...ah..."

Hang Sui felt as if his body was about to split apart. He was unable to move and could only ask Xiao Ran for help.

However, at this moment, two dolls also climbed onto Xiao Ran's body.

However, the two dolls opened their mouths and sucked from the left and right for a long time, but they couldn't suck anything. Annoyance appeared on their pink faces, but they could do nothing about Xiao Ran.

Are you saying that Xiao Ran has no blood on his hands?
Of course not, it’s just that the ancients said it well: if you don’t do anything wrong, you don’t have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door.

Xiao Ran has a lot of blood on his hands, but none of it goes against his conscience.

Moreover, Xiao Ran is familiar with the Mahaprajnaparamita Sutra.

The Buddhist teachings are all about encouraging people to be good, and the worst-case scenario is to put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha instantly.

This scripture is different, it does not have those rigid and restrictive doctrines, it only talks about the mind and nature throughout, depriving oneself of distracting thoughts and bringing out one's true nature to the fullest.

If our nature is good, then we should always do good.

If one's nature is evil, then he will be full of evil.

The extreme of evil, the extreme of good, even if one is a lustful person, he will do it with the nature of committing adultery in the world.

Xiao Ran is familiar with this sutra. His heart is as strong as a rock and his nature is genuine. How could he be influenced by these two ghost dolls?

To be honest, looking at the bulging ghost dolls on Hang Sui and others' bodies, Xiao Ran felt that these people deserved it.

Considering what they have done, being cut into pieces is the lightest punishment. This way of dying is pretty good.

You have to know that the doll on the second in command, a bandit, has only expanded to the size of a washbasin.

But we can't let these people die here now.

It will be of other use to me later.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ran snorted coldly: "When it comes to murder and arson, they are more professional than you, but when it comes to harming people, they are not as good as you. This karma is not your turn to manipulate."

As he spoke, Xiao Ran stomped his feet violently, and countless chains stretched out from the pool of corpses under his feet.

"Corpse Technique: Soul Binding"

I saw chains tying up the dolls and then quickly closing them. No matter how the dolls screamed and struggled, they were eventually dragged into the corpse pool.

Seeing that his own child was unable to do anything to Xiao Ran, there was finally a big noise outside the door.

I saw wisps of red clouds surging.

A team walked out of nothingness. Everyone in the team was in mourning, but they were holding up wedding signs and beating drums and gongs, making it very lively.

At the back of the procession, a coffin was lifted high, with bright red flowers draped over it, and a white sedan chair standing on top of it.

As the cold wind blew, it appeared in front of everyone in an instant.

The curtain of the sedan chair was lifted, revealing a woman in red, who looked up at Xiao Ran.

In just a glance, Xiao Ran felt as if his forehead had hit something, his body swayed, and his head ached slightly.

You have to know that his mental strength has exceeded the fifty point mark, but just a look from the other party was enough to shock his spirit.

When the woman saw that Xiao Ran was still able to stand, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

His eyes suddenly darkened and he spoke slowly, but his voice was hoarse and deep, clearly that of a man.

"You are so ignorant of the rules that you ruined my good deeds. Then please stay."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and grabbed towards Xiao Ran. His slender fingers grabbed at the void. Xiao Ran's heart sank and he suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis, and his eyes turned cold.

Instead, he formed a strange sign with his hands and pushed forward the hand that the woman in front of him extended.

“The King of Hell is knocking on the door!!”

　Sorry, I'm not feeling well today, so I can only update one chapter. I'll make some adjustments.
