Livestreaming Forbidden Zone: Starting with a Qilin Tattoo Terrifies the Entire Internet

Jiang Han looked at Zhang Zhenren, who was barely breathing in the coffin, without any change in expression.

He listened to this unfortunate story that was five hundred years old.

Red-haired monster.

A monster with three flowers on its head.

A nightmare combination that terrified the Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain in the Ming Dynasty, causing him to hide in a coffin for five hundred years.

Jiang Han glanced at the live stream chat. The comments were scrolling by rapidly, a mix of shock, sympathy, and laughter that made it hard to keep up.

He had no interest in comforting this poor ancient man.

He was too lazy to explain that the "great terror" who had chased Zhang Zhenren to the ends of the earth was as obedient as a dog in front of him.

He simply extended his hand, the movement swift and decisive.

To Zhang Zhenren's bewildered gaze, Jiang Han pulled him, along with the half of the coffin board that had grown together with his flesh and bones, out of the hanging coffin.

Then, a narrow opening appeared in the mustard seed space.

He threw this 500-year-old living fossil, along with the coffin, directly into the coffin.

"Let's go outside first and talk about it later."

He said four words and then left.

Jiang Han leaped off the edge of the hanging coffin and landed back on the excessively quiet street of Fengxian Village.

The surrounding white fog seemed thicker than before.

The bluestone path was wet, and the smell of mud mixed with the smell of rotten leaves rose up from underfoot.

The whole village was as quiet as a tomb.

"The red-haired monster and the earth immortal are friends... Master Zhang is being chased by a monster with three flowers on its head..."

Jiang Han mentally reviewed the information he had just received.

There are more clues now.

The mystery grew as a result.

Greetings, Immortal.

A listless voice came up behind him.

They are very close.

It was so close it felt like someone was talking on the back of his neck.

Jiang Han turned around.

Wang Shengsi was standing three steps behind him at some point.

He stood there, covered in wet mud, like a radish just pulled from the ground.

His eyes were dull, like two non-reflective glass beads.

The person stood there, but there was no sign of life.

The live stream chat exploded with comments.

[Holy crap! Here we go again! Can't this guy come up with a different entrance?! It's terrifying every time!]

He's here! He's here! He's coming with his "Greetings, Immortal!"

[The real deal has arrived! The man who's been chasing after Zhang Zhenren for five hundred years! He's here!]

【(ಡωಡ)hiahiahia Here it comes, the comedy star of the year, Mr. Wang Shengsi!】

Wang Sheng was unaware that the comments section was buzzing with excitement.

A faint, eerie smile lingered on his dead face.

He looked at Jiang Han and spoke, each word uttered slowly and deliberately.

"The immortal is that mortal from five hundred years ago..."

"Has it been sent out?"

He asked very seriously, as if confirming something small.

Jiang Han looked at him.

This face was just now playing the role of "lifelong enemy" and "greatest terror" in Zhang Zhenren's story.

Now that I'm standing in front of you, I look like a sweet potato that's just been dug up from the ground.

Jiang Han nodded.

"They've been seen off."

He then asked, "What's the story behind this village?"

"Did the entire village ascend to immortality?"

"Where is that earth immortal now?"

Every question points directly to the core of this forbidden zone.

The viewers in the live stream all slowed their breathing.

Here it comes! A head-on clash!

[Jiang Shen has started questioning! Tell me quickly! Who exactly are you, this guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes?!]

[Wang Shengsi: I'm coming clean, I'm not pretending anymore, I am...]

Wang Sheng's expression remained unchanged after hearing this.

He nodded seriously, as if praising Jiang Han for asking a very professional question.

"It's a good thing that the immortal sent him away."

"He's staying in the village and refusing to leave, which is hindering our path to immortality."

This statement is logically clear and doesn't sound like something a mentally unstable person would say.

The anticipation in the live stream room was immediately heightened.

[It's coming! It's coming! The big one is coming!]

[Judging from his tone! He's about to spill the beans!]

He really knew everything! I knew he was just pretending!

Wang Sheng paused for a moment.

It was as if they truly sensed everyone's expectations.

Then, he said something that stunned the entire internet.

"I just failed to become an immortal, I'm not stupid."

This sentence sounds like the opening remarks before a shocking secret is revealed.

The atmosphere in the entire venue tensed up at that moment.

Everyone thought that the truth about Fengxian Village would be revealed in the next second.

Jiang Han looked at him, waiting for what would happen next.

then.

Wang Sheng bowed respectfully to Jiang Han.

There was even a hint of "sincerity" in those glass bead-like eyes.

"The questions you asked earlier, Immortal..."

He dragged out the sound.

After piquing everyone's curiosity to its peak, the second half of the sentence was then introduced.

"I...don't know any of them."

"..."

"..."

"Please continue your inspection, Immortal."

Done.

Wang Shengsi stood up straight and nodded to Jiang Han again.

Then turn around.

Walk to a patch of soft mud nearby.

With a push of both legs.

puff.

He's truly a carrot, having "replanted" himself back into the ground.

Only a head and the three strange flowers remained outside, swaying in the mist.

The whole world is quiet.

Jiang Han's expression faltered for a brief moment.

In the live stream room.

There was a long silence of ten seconds.

Then the comments flooded out like a dam had been opened.

【？？？？？？？？？？？？？】

[I'm fucking...I'm fucking dumbfounded, hahaha!]

[The ultimate master of nonsensical literature!!! I hereby declare Wang Shengsi a god of literature!!!]

[“I failed to become an immortal, not because I’m stupid” → “I don’t know anything about it” → “Please continue your inspection”, after this combo, I feel like I got kicked in the head by a donkey, hahaha!]

【(╯°□°）What is this?! I took my pants off and this is what you show me?!】

[I'd call this the ultimate tug-of-war! It builds anticipation to the heights of Mount Everest, then sends it crashing down into the Mariana Trench!]

[Even Jiang Shen was stunned! This is the first time I've ever seen Jiang Shen with this expression! Hahahaha!]

[Screenshot taken! Screenshot taken! Another meme of Jiang Shen's bewildered expression!]

Jiang Han was indeed speechless.

He looked at the head that had grown out of the ground.

"This guy... he's a real character."

He shook his head and ultimately just shrugged.

Since you can't get anything out of them, you might as well find it yourself.

He ignored the guy who had planted him and turned to walk deeper into the village.

As he walked, he sorted through the clues in front of the live stream camera.

His expression had returned to normal, as if that absurd interlude had never happened.

"That guy didn't say anything, but through Master Zhang, we still got some key information and a lot of questions."

He held up one finger.

"First, who is the Earth Immortal? Why did he choose this village to ascend to immortality? Did he succeed in the end, or not?"

The second finger is raised.

"Secondly, why does every household in this village have a shrine? What do those shrines represent? And what is the mirrored shrine on the other side?"

"Third, what exactly is the formation that covers the entire village? Why does it create two worlds, like inside and outside a mirror?"

"Fourth, the red-haired monster and the earth immortal are friends, so what happened between them? Why did the red-haired monster come all the way from Mars to here, and why did it run away when it saw me?"

Every time he asked a question, the viewers in the live stream felt a bit more confused.

These problems are all like deep pits.

[Stop talking, Jiang Shen, or my CPU will burn out.]

[Summary: We know nothing.]

No, at least we know that Wang Shengsi is a master of nonsense.

Jiang Han didn't stop.

His gaze swept over the ordinary-looking but awkward houses in the village.

These houses are laid out in a chaotic manner, yet they subtly follow a certain pattern.

"The layout of the buildings here seems to be arranged according to the nine palaces and eight trigrams."

Jiang Han's voice rang out again.

"This really does look like a venue prepared for a large ceremony."

"An... Ascension Formation."

"But just having the formation won't solve the problems I just encountered."

"To answer these questions, we must find the place where the history of this village is recorded."

"Normally, there's only one such place."

As he spoke, he stopped in front of a building.

The building is located in the very center of the village.

Unlike the other new and eerily strange houses in the village, it was conspicuously dilapidated.

The doors and windows were rotten, the walls were covered with moss and cracks, and weeds grew on the eaves.

A badly faded plaque hangs above the door, the two characters on it already blurred.

ancestral hall.

"It seems the answer lies within."

Jiang Han looked at the ancestral hall, pushed open the two creaking wooden doors, and went inside.

The ancestral hall was dimly lit, and the smell of dust and incense ash mixed together, making one's throat dry.

Directly opposite the door is a three-meter-tall stone statue.

The stone statue depicts a man wearing an ancient Taoist robe. His face is blurred, but his posture still exudes an air of otherworldly elegance.

Jiang Han's gaze fell on the base of the stone statue.

There is a line of ancient seal script characters engraved there.

He stepped forward, brushed away the dust, and read it aloud in a low voice.

"Feng Yunqi, a resident of Fengjia Village, cultivated the righteous path for seven hundred years, but his merits were not yet complete, and the gates of heaven remained closed. In despair, he returned to his hometown and realized that his destiny lay there. He then used the methods of an earth immortal to transform the entire village, leading the Feng clan to ascend to immortality as a whole. Later generations, grateful for his kindness, renamed the village Fengxian Village and erected a statue here, which they have worshipped for generations."

The inscription is short, but it contains a lot of information.

The live stream chat exploded with a collective gasp of realization.

[Holy crap! It's solved! The earth immortal is from this village!]

[It turns out that Fengxian Village used to be called Fengjia Village! It was renamed because the local immortal's surname was Feng!]

Seven hundred years! Seven hundred years of cultivation and still no immortality, how tragic...

So the whole village ascended to heaven! They really did it!

Jiang Han looked at the inscription, but there was no joy on his face.

His gaze gradually darkened.

He looked up at the silent stone statue, or perhaps through the statue he was looking in a certain direction outside the ancestral hall.

He spoke to the live stream camera, his words laced with coldness.

"The Feng family's Earth Immortal... So, this Earth Immortal also has the surname Feng."

After Jiang Han finished reading the words on the base of the stone statue, his gaze darkened.

"Why did Wang Shengsi say he knew nothing?"
