Chapter 217：

Chapter 217 The family of ghosts and gods, the power of the majestic dragon and elephant, exploded with one punch

One hour after Chen Chu sent the information requesting a thorough investigation of the Shanshu family to the local military, Baichuan Yingzi suddenly came to the door and revealed her identity.

"Military Secret Service personnel."

Looking at the neat and handsome beautiful woman in a white lady's suit with a dagger pinned to her waist, Chen Chu's eyes showed surprise.

Sakura Mokawa bowed slightly: "That's right, I joined the Secret Service Department after graduation, and I'm a member of the Eastern Capital's dark-screen investigation team, specializing in incidents involving cultists."

"However, my identity is kept secret. On the surface, my identity is just a member of the martial arts hall."

At this time, besides the two of them, there were Yan Ruoyi, Li Daoyi and Xu Xiaoqi in the living room.

The three of them were a little surprised. They didn't expect that Chen Chu would find out just after he came to the Eastern Capital.

"After receiving Mr. Chu's request, I specially mobilized people to thoroughly investigate the affairs of the Shanshu family, but..." At this point, Baichuan Yingzi showed doubts in her eyes.

Chen Chu frowned: "Didn't you find it?"

Baichuan Yingzi nodded: "That's right, there is nothing unusual about the Shanshu family."

"The Yamaki family has been the priests of the Daiten Demon Shrine for generations, and it has been going on for hundreds of years. It is rumored that the members of the Yamaki family have the blood of the Daiten Demon."

"Of course, these are rumors and no one believes them, but after the changes in the modern world, every generation of the Shanshu family has the talent for cultivation."

"The current patriarch of the Shanshu family, Shanju Longyou, is even a master in the late stage of the sixth heaven, and his strength is stronger than my father."

"Combined with hundreds of years of operation, the Shanshu family has a high prestige in Dongdu."

"When I mobilized military forces to investigate, I found that the Shanshu family was 'clean', and the family members hadn't shown any signs of abnormality for more than ten years."

"Is it so clean?" Chen Chu frowned slightly, did he feel wrong?

At this time Li Daoyi said slowly: "Clean doesn't mean there are no problems."

"At Brother Chu's current state, especially since he has practiced perception skills, it is almost impossible to go wrong if he clearly feels that there is a problem."

"It's just that this family hides very deeply, so it can't be found out by conventional means."

"You mean using unconventional means?" Baichuan Yingzi looked at the smiling Yan Ruoyi on the sofa as she spoke, and hesitated to speak.

Yan Ruoyi smiled lightly: "Miss Yingzi, if you have anything to say, just say it, everyone is your own."

Baichuan Yingzi hesitated and said: "Today is the annual Ghost King Festival in Dongdu, and it just so happens that the festival is held not far from the Daten Ghost Shrine."

"Now we all know that Ms. Yan's identity has been 'exposed'. If there is really a problem with the Shanshu family and Ms. Yan comes to the door on her own initiative."

Having said this, Baichuan Yingzi paused.

"Come to the door and lure them to take action." Yan Ruoyi's eyes lit up: "This proposal is good. I prefer to take the initiative rather than wait passively."

"By the way, we can also visit the Ghost King Festival. I have heard of this festival in Dongxia. I heard it is very lively."

Seeing this, Li Daoyi and Chen Chu looked at each other, and after thinking about it, they didn't say anything to dissuade them.

The highest cultivator of this family is only at the late stage of the Sixth Heavenly Layer, and they are vulnerable to a single blow. It is just to make sure that Chen Chu's induction is not wrong.

As for notifying the military to directly send forces to suppress it, it is unnecessary.

One is that the other party is very 'clean', and the other is that a family with such a 'little' strength doesn't need to work hard, and it would be embarrassing if they make a mistake.

"Can I go too?" At this moment, Xu Xiaoqi's eyes brightened slightly, and she was eager to try.

After witnessing the projection collision between Chen Chu and 'Zhang Tian' last night, Xu Xiaoqi became very interested in the exaggerated battle scenes of senior practitioners.

"Miss Xu, it might be dangerous this time, so you'd better not go." Chen Chu refused.

He and Li Daoyi defended and attacked at the same time. Even the high-ranking Seventh Heavenly Layer had the confidence to protect Yan Ruoyi, but it would be difficult to add an ordinary person.

Soon, Yan Ruoyi changed into a white sportswear, a peaked cap on her head, and plain glasses on the bridge of her nose.

Looking at Chen Chu who was dressed in a black suit and a white shirt, Baichuan Yingzi asked doubtfully, "Mr. Chu, don't you want to change your clothes?"

Chen Chu shook his head: "It's not necessary, my job is to be a bodyguard, and I can tell at a glance whether I'm changing someone else or not."

The culture of Yueshan Country is somewhat similar to that of Bird Country. There are many legends about ghosts and ghosts, and most of the folk legends are related to ghosts, so there is a festival called Ghost King Festival.

With the development of social civilization and the eradication of superstition, the festival of Yueshan Kingdom has gradually become an event similar to Halloween, once a year.

At the same time, this Eastern Capital was also the city where the first violent ape appeared when the world changed.

At that time, the ninth-level behemoth rushed into the city and caused hundreds of thousands of casualties. It was eventually led out of the city by human fighters and missiles, and was killed by a large-yield nuclear bomb.

The mega-yield nuclear bomb explosion crater is still more than 20 kilometers away from the city.

At night, the southern city of Dongdu, which is close to the suburbs, is brightly lit. From a high altitude, you can see countless vehicles and people coming together, which is very lively.

"Hahahaha... Come and chase me."

"I am the one-horned ghost king."

"Mom, I want to eat that flower cake."

"No, you are changing your teeth recently, so you can't eat too sweet things..."

The streets are crowded with people, and children are playing happily. The vendors on both sides sell all kinds of food and play things, as well as many ghost masks, toys, etc.

Said to attract the enemy Baichuan Yingzi, Yan Ruoyi was standing in a selling

'Sugar' roadside stall.

Baichuan Yingzi pointed to the pastry behind the glass cabinet, and introduced: "Miss Yan, this is the famous silver flower cake in Dongdu, and few craftsmen can make it now, do you want to try it?"

Yan Ruoyi, who deliberately didn't eat dinner, nodded with interest, and Yingzi Baichuan immediately waved: "Boss, here are four servings of silver flower cake."

Soon, the boss handed the wrapped silk flower cake to the two women.

"Come on, one for each of us." Yan Ruoyi smiled and stuffed the cakes in the paper bag into the hands of Chen Chu and Li Daoyi.

At this time, in addition to the flower cake, Chen Chu and Chen Chu also had a large bunch of grilled skewers, grilled squid, meatballs, crepes and so on.

Along the way, Yan Ruoyi bought every snack she saw.

Then she ate more of what she thought was delicious, and stuffed it to Chen Chu and the others who were not tasty. She knew that advanced practitioners had a 'very big' appetite.

If you really want to eat, you can eat a cow.

"Ruoyi, that lantern over there looks really nice, let's go and have a look."

"Hmm, wait for me."

The two girls became more and more active as they walked around, and they seemed to be having a good time, and their relationship seemed to become close all of a sudden, which made Chen Chu feel baffled.

While Yan Ruoyi and Baichuan Yingzi fumbled here and there with great interest, Chen Chu vigilantly scanned everyone who approached, no matter adults, children, old people or women.

In addition to this, the intuition of the soul and the perception of the five senses spread, and many practitioners were discovered.

However, these people are all average in strength, most of them are first and second heavens, and only a few of them are third heavens, and some of them have the faces of students.

At the same time, not far away, Chen Chu also felt some cultivators with military temperament, and occasionally when they looked into the eyes of those people, both of them nodded slightly.

When setting off, Chen Chu, who was habitually cautious, notified the military of their actions, just in case.

While Chen Chu was looking at the people around him vigilantly, some people were also looking at him.

Of course, I don’t think he’s handsome, but I think he’s overpretending to wear sunglasses at night.

Although today is the Ghost King's Day, many people are wearing strange clothes, and there are children running around wearing various ghost masks, but those are at least 'normal'.

"Brother Chu, there are so many beauties."

Compared to Chen Chu's cautiousness, Li Daoyi paid attention to the beauties he met along the way.

"Uh... You have dozens of beautiful friends in your phone, isn't that enough?" Facing Li Daoyi who looked like this, Chen Chu didn't know what to say for a while.

You say he is lustful, he just chats with those beauties and gives red envelopes, and those beauties ask him to go out for drinks or to play, but they all refuse.

If you say that he is not lustful, he looks at beautiful women all day long.

Sometimes he would drag Chen Chu to comment together, like a sullen homeboy who had never seen a beautiful woman, leaving him speechless.

Forget it, I don’t bother with him.

Chen Chu shook his head, focused on Yan Ruoyi, looked at the side face with a bright smile under the light, and sighed slightly.

Almost an hour later, the four of them passed through the two busy streets, and suddenly felt that the surroundings became quiet, and the flow of people suddenly decreased a lot.

Here has come to the suburbs, in front of it is a hill with dense trees, with winding bluestones, and at the end is a step path that goes up the mountain.

Chen Chu and the others stepped up the steps.

The low street lamps on the side of the road exude a quiet light, full of mystery. Occasionally, when pedestrians go up or down the mountain, their faces are full of piety.

When the four of them came to the middle of the mountain, they saw a vast and ancient temple standing quietly. On both sides of the gate, there were two eight-meter-high green-faced fang-toothed ghost statues guarding them.

It's like that's not the gate of a shrine, but the entrance to hell.

Baichuan Yingzi said in a low voice: "This is the Shrine of Daten Ghosts and Gods. As the priests here, most of the members of the Yamaki family live here."

"Patriarch Yamaju Ryūyou, the second-generation priests Yamaju Yufeng, Shanshu Yulei, and three other members of the third-generation family."

"There are so few family members." Li Daoyi was a little surprised.

In his eyes, these so-called famous families in the local society should be flourishing.

Baichuan Yingzi nodded: "Since the new era, the members of the Shanshu family have not been prosperous, and they are usually very low-key."

Yan Ruoyi looked at the ghost stone statues on both sides, and said with a relaxed expression, "Let's go in and have a look."

It was already past eight o'clock in the evening, and when the four of them entered, they passed by the last few tourists, and the huge shrine suddenly became quieter.

After entering the gate, there is a huge square with a majestic hall in the middle, and behind it are the residence buildings of the priests of the Shanshu family.

Wearing a gorgeous priestly uniform under the eaves of the main hall of the shrine, Yamaki Yukaze, who was sitting behind the imperial platform, was a little surprised: "Miss Baichuan, Miss Yan, why are you here so late?"

Bowing slightly, Sakurako Baichuan said, "We were originally participating in the Ghost King Festival down below, but we thought that the Daten Ghost Shrine is up there, so we brought Ms. Yan up for a visit."

"I see, please." Yamaki Yukaze gestured to welcome in.

When Chen Chu and Li Dao passed by each other, Shanshu Yufeng smiled politely at them, showing no sign of any problem at all.

The four of them walked into the main hall, and when Baichuan Yingzi visited the idol, an old man with a thin face and wearing a priest's uniform came out.

The old man also had a warm face, smiling at everyone, as if he was very happy for them to visit the shrine and worship the gods and spirits they believed in.

Standing behind Yan Ruoyi, Chen Chu's eyes swept across the hideous statues of evil ghosts, and finally fell on the statue of the big sky ghost in the middle.

The **** statue is wearing a set of ancient armor, sitting and standing five meters high, with a five-meter-long knife lying horizontally on its knees, and the face under the helmet is a ferocious ghost.

When Chen Chu looked at the statue, he vaguely saw a ferocious ghost staring at him with cold eyes in his 'heart'.

Chen Chu restrained his voice with real strength and suddenly said in a low voice: "Brother Li, do you feel that the big ghost statue in the sky is a bit strange?"

Hearing this, Li Daoyi, who had been looking at the statue, nodded thoughtfully, his lips moved slightly:

"It is a little bit, it seems that there is some breath of faith wrapped around it."

Faith breath. Chen Chu's eyes moved slightly.

Since there are king-level powerhouses comparable to gods in this world, and even some kings proclaim themselves gods to establish the kingdom of God, there are naturally some special powers, such as faith.

It's just that this kind of power similar to the spirit is illusory, and only the king whose law power involves this aspect can collect it.

So even Chen Chu had only heard of it, hadn't encountered it, and couldn't perceive it at the same time. He just felt that this idol was a bit strange.

It's like coming alive.

As for why Li Daoyi could feel the faint breath of faith above, it should be related to his 'innate awakening'.

But under normal circumstances, it is normal for a statue that has been worshiped for hundreds of years to have a little bit of faith, but is it normal?

Chen Chu and Li Dao looked at each other.

Suddenly, Chen Chu said indifferently: "Brother Li, strike that giant ghost statue with lightning."

Immediately, everyone present was shocked.

Shanshu Longyou's face changed slightly, and he said sternly: "Sir, this is the giant ghost and **** that my family has guarded for hundreds of years. What do you want to do?"

As he spoke, a powerful black power erupted from his body, like a black flame from **** burning blazingly, exuding astonishing power.

Under the explosion of momentum in the late stage of the Sixth Heaven, there was a gust of wind howling in the hall for a while, and cracks appeared on the ground.

Shanshu Yufeng outside the temple also showed anger in his eyes. For them, attacking the idol of faith is almost the same as killing their parents.

Boom!

At this moment, Li Daoyi was surrounded by purple thunder, and the electric light jumped. In an instant, an arm-thick purple thunder light meandered and shone, and the light flashed on the statue of Datian ghosts and gods.

Boom!

Under the thunder, the head of the **** statue was cracked, and wisps of black smoke floated out from the cracks, and a terrifying aura that did not belong to humans permeated in an instant.

"Purgatory devil energy!"

In an instant, Chen Chu appeared in front of Yan Ruoyi, with golden flames jumping from his body, his expression solemn.

I didn't expect that this time it wasn't the Blood God Cult, but the Purgatory Clan.

The thunder light on Li Daoyi's body soared even more, crackling thunder lights covered a range of five meters, and his long hair was automatic without wind, like a **** in charge of thunder.

Li Dao's eyes jumped with thunder, and his voice buzzed: "I never thought that the breath of faith entwined on this idol is actually to suppress the breath of purgatory inside."

"You human traitors, you should all die"

Seeing that the matter was brought to light, Shanshu Longyou's eyes slowly turned blood-colored, and a more terrifying aura erupted from deep within his body, his expression appeared a bit hideous.

"Originally, I didn't want to get involved in this incident. What does the daughter of the king of heaven have to do with me? Why do you insist on forcing me?"

"Today, you are all going to die, roar!"

Accompanied by the inhuman roar, Shanshu Longyou's body suddenly swelled, his clothes tore, and in the blink of an eye he turned into a three-meter-high ghost with two horns surrounded by red magic light.

In an instant, the aura of the cedar tree Longyou soared nearly ten times, and the raging black and red flames almost approached the seventh heaven, and the whole hall was shaken by the terrifying ghostly aura.

Shanshu Longyou roared: "Yufeng, don't let them run away, activate Stonehenge."

"Yes, Father."

Accompanied by a low drink, the mountain tree outside the door Yufeng slapped the stone pillar beside him.

Ho Ho!

Suddenly, the roar of Dragon Yin Xianghou shook the void, magnificent, domineering, and under the fierce and unparalleled strength, it seemed that the whole world collapsed under Chen Chu's fist.

Boom!

The majesty of the gods is like anger, the golden light is shining, showing the body of a "ghost and god", and the mountain tree Yufeng, whose cultivation level has skyrocketed from the early stage of the fifth layer to the late stage of the fifth layer, is instantly bombarded.

The domineering punching style continued unabated, smashing half of the temple's walls and buildings.

The air howled, the air waves rolled, and countless flesh and blood residues mixed with broken bricks and gravel flew tens of meters away, billowing smoke and dust filled half of the square.

Immediately, everyone had a meal.

Including Li Daoyi who was just about to make a move.

No, brother, it’s my turn this time, don’t pretend.

Facing Li Daoyi's resentful gaze, Chen Chu, who was wearing sunglasses, withdrew his fist sternly.

Although this 'guy' is not very strong, it is obvious that he is going to activate some organ arrangement that has been prepared for decades. In this case, everything must be blown up.

Although it feels like nothing will go wrong, he doesn't like surprises.

"Ah! I'm going to kill you."

Looking at his son being knocked out of the mountain tree in an instant, Longyou's eyes showed ferocity and madness, and the magic light on his body formed a huge ten-meter-high phantom behind him.

"Your opponent is Daoist."

Following Li Dao's wave of his hand, the surrounding thunder lights converged into a huge purple thunder dragon, which roared and collided with the phantom of ghosts and gods.

Boom!

In an instant, the missile exploded, and a dazzling black-purple destruction shock wave erupted. Wherever it passed, the roof of the temple collapsed, the stone statue was shattered, and a dazzling beam of light rose into the sky.

During the rumbling temple collapse, golden flames leaped from Chen Chu's body, forming an invisible and powerful force field covering five meters.

As soon as the crushed stones and explosions approached the five-meter range, they were blocked by the domineering divine power, forming an insurmountable invisible wall around them.

Boom boom boom!

Among the billowing air waves and dust, thunderous men with thick thighs roared, ghosts and gods roared fiercely, and both sides rushed out of the half-collapsed temple with a bang.

Sensing the violent atmosphere outside, Chen Chu looked indifferent, and stretched out his hand to press his ear slightly: "The Shanshu family is related to the demon clan, block the hill, and leave no one behind."

"receive!"

Accompanied by the resolute voice from the opposite side, dozens of figures who had been waiting for a long time rushed up the mountain forest from all directions, each of them exuded the breath of the fifth heaven.

Within a few breaths, these experts from the military met several other members of the Shanshu family who had escaped from the mountain.

Including one of the second generation who ran away when the situation was not good, the battle broke out immediately.

In the dilapidated hall, Sakurako Mokawa holding a dagger was a little dignified: "There is really a problem with the Shanshu family, and it's not just a simple traitor."

"This time it should be an accident." Chen Chu's eyes fell on the statue behind which was still emitting a faint black devilish energy, thoughtfully.

"They should have a certain connection with the demons. I can feel that the demonic energy is somewhat different from Maxhus's."

"There is also that strange body of ghosts and gods. I can't even feel the difference before it is activated. It seems that it is not a simple fusion, but more like a blood transformation."

As he spoke, Chen Chu's eyes showed interest, and he really wanted to catch a member of the Shanshu family to study it.

Facing the change, Yan Ruoyi calmed down and said softly: "They should have integrated the blood essence of the purgatory demons, and they should transform themselves into demons by referring to Bei Lin's skills."

"It's just strange, where did they get the blood of the purgatory demons?"

Boom boom boom!

At this moment, the air roared in the distance, ghosts and gods

... No, it's more like the mountain tree Longyou in the form of a ghost, who burst out, looking fiercely at Yan Ruoyi.

It wants to hold Yan Ruoyi hostage.

At this time, Shanshu Longyou was in a very embarrassing situation, many parts of his body were shattered by thunder and his breath was weak, and he didn't have the tyrannical and domineering aura when he transformed just now.

"Roar! Get out of here." Roaring Zhongshan Shu Longyou waved his right paw.

Endless black and red demonic energy tumbling to form a huge claw covering the hall, the air collapsed within ten meters under the terrifying force, and the floor tiles shattered.

"What gave you the illusion that you can provoke me." Along with a low voice, extremely terrifying power was released from Chen Chu.

In an instant, golden light shone, and the half-collapsed temple was shaking and trembling, as if an ancient giant beast was waking up.

Roar! Accompanied by the golden fist being swung out, the power of the mighty dragon elephant was attracted, and the whole world seemed to vibrate under the terrifying and domineering power, shaking the sky and the earth.

The claws of ghosts and gods covering the hall instantly shattered under a terrible punch.

Shanshu Longyou's complexion changed drastically due to the unrivaled power, blood spewed out of his mouth, and the three-meter-high body of ghosts and gods was blown away by the relentless punching power with a bang.

At the same time, Chen Chuhua turned into a golden light and soared into the sky, with golden flames burning all over his body, his palms swelled, and he grabbed Shanshu Longyou's face in mid-air as if teleporting.

Then the two fell from the sky.

Boom!

In an instant, the mountains and forests trembled, and the ground within a range of more than 20 meters instantly collapsed. Countless gravel and soil were thrown away under the terrifying force, forming circles of destructive shock waves.

Under the terrible impact, Baichuan Yingzi's face changed drastically, and she quickly blocked Yan Ruoyi from the violent wind and waves, especially those gravels thrown like cannonballs.

And all this happened in an instant.

In the distance, Li Daoyi was surrounded by thunder, and his face hurt.

In his perception, the life breath of the elite monster named Shanshu Longyou had disappeared, and he was bombarded and killed by Chen Chu, so he didn't pretend to be aggressive this time.

Today, two chapters and 10,000 words are completed. Brothers, remember to vote monthly to support it, and continue tomorrow.
