Chapter 215: Wudao Heavenly King, kill Hu Ling!
Li Daoxuan thought of Chihu's terrifying ghost body. It could not be killed by thunder, fire, or swords. Even if its head was chopped off, a new one would grow quickly.
The opponent can be said to be immortal. Unless Li Daoxuan's cultivation also breaks through the Yang Shen realm and completely destroys him with one blow, how can his immortality be broken?
Fortunately, Zhou Laodao seemed to say that he had a way.
"You don't know, Master, but Chi Hu was actually a mortal emperor when he was alive."
Li Daoxuan was very surprised. How could Chihu, the ugly ghost general with a green face and fangs, have once been an emperor of the world?
But please don't let it be Emperor Wu of Han or Qin Shihuang. Li Daoxuan doesn't believe that these emperors with great talents and strategies would become the minions and accomplices of the Hollow-Bellied Ghost King.
Even the tyrant Yang Guang had his own pride.
As expected, Zhou Laodao said, "Chihu's real name is Shihu. He was the emperor of the Later Zhao during the Sixteen Kingdoms period. He was brave and good at fighting during his lifetime. He was known as the best warrior of the Jie tribe and killed countless people. Later, he plotted to usurp the throne and became the emperor."
When Li Daoxuan heard the name, he understood. It turned out to be him. No wonder he was so violent and vicious.
Li Daoxuan was a history enthusiast in his previous life, so he had naturally heard of Shi Hu's deeds.
If we were to rank the most brutal, violent and licentious emperors in history, Shi Hu would definitely be on the list, and he might even be a strong contender for the top spot.
This man was brave and good at fighting, but extremely jealous. Anyone in the army who was talented and more popular than him would be eliminated by him using cruel means. Even his uncle, Shi Le, the founding emperor of the Later Zhao Dynasty, once wanted to kill him, but was persuaded by his wife.
It turned out that Shi Le's idea was correct.
After his uncle died of illness, Shi Hu immediately plotted to usurp the throne and then executed his entire family.
If this were the case, he would be nothing more than an ungrateful person, but Shi Hu's cruelty was more than that.
According to historical records, his two favorite things were cannibalism and marrying.
He liked to use the Han people as military rations, especially women and children. When going to war, he even deliberately did not bring food and fodder, and then allowed his soldiers to commit cannibalism and massacre, calling the Han people "two-legged sheep."
Wherever the Jie people went, the sky was filled with blood and the ground was covered with bones!
That was an extremely dark period. It can be said that Shi Hu, by his own efforts, almost brought the Han nationality to the brink of extinction.
Bones are exposed in the wild, and no rooster crows for thousands of miles.
In addition to cannibalism, Shi Hu also liked to marry wives. He once ordered that all women of marriageable age in the country, whether married or not, must be ready to serve in the palace at any time.
At its peak, his harem had 40,000 concubines!
In order to build palaces for his concubines, he even mobilized 400,000 coolies and spent decades to build various palaces and pavilions.
Thinking of what the other party had done before his death, a hint of coldness flashed in Li Daoxuan's eyes.
How could such
No wonder when the karmic fire burned on him, it was like encountering boiling oil. The sins committed by this man were truly extremely serious.
"True Lord, Chi Hu once killed countless Han people. After his death, he was appreciated by the Ghost King Xu Du, who taught him the secret method and helped him become immortal. However, all things in the world are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining, and there is one thing that can restrain him the most!"
"What?"
Taoist Zhou said word by word: "Kill Hu Ling!"
Li Daoxuan's eyes lit up and he asked, "Wu Dao Tian Wang Ran Min's order to kill the Hu people?"
"Yes, it is the order from King Ran to kill the Hu people!"
Ran Min's ancestors were all Han generals. Later, his father was captured by Shi Hu. The young Ran Min was highly appreciated by Shi Hu and was adopted as his grandson, treated like his own grandson.
Ran Min was brave and good at fighting, and soon became an outstanding general with his prestige growing.
However, during his conquest, he witnessed with his own eyes the inhumane slaughter of the Han people by the Jie people. The Han children were called dogs or slaves, and were bullied and abused in normal times, and used as military rations during wars.
Especially for Han women , their heads would be cut off and placed on silver plates as decorations in the room.
The more beautiful the head, the more face its owner has.
For a time, the Jie people all vied to collect them, treating them as a game of comparison.
Although Shi Hu was kind to him, in the face of ethnic hatred, Ran Min resolutely chose to break with him. After Shi Hu's death, he beheaded the successor Jie emperor and issued the famous "Order to Kill the Hu" in 349 AD!
As soon as the order to kill the Hu people was issued, Han warriors all over the world responded one after another, sacrificing their lives and shedding their blood. Within three days, 200,000 Hu people were slaughtered, and millions of them were driven away, leaving them to die on the road.
The order to kill the Hu people paid tribute to the countless innocent souls of the Han people who died tragically, and allowed the land of China to once again sing the war songs of the Han men.
Later, Ran Min was defeated and killed, and was posthumously named Wudao Tianwang.
There has always been controversy about him in later generations. Some people call him a national hero and a god of war, while others think he is a butcher and executioner.
"True Lord, if we can find King Ran Tian's order to kill the Hu, it will definitely greatly restrain Chi Hu's magical power. Then it will be much easier to kill him."
Taoist Zhou spoke with absolute certainty.
"Kill Hu Order..."
Li Daoxuan smiled bitterly and said, "Let's not talk about the fact that I don't know where that thing is or whether it still exists. Even if I knew, I'm trapped in the underworld now. How can I go back to the world of the living to find the Killing Hu Order?"
Taoist Zhou smiled and said, "Don't worry, Master. I have been here for seven years and have set up a magic circle to bring you back to the living. In about a month, when the Qingming Festival comes, I will be able to activate the magic circle and send you back to the world of the living."
"You can look for the Killing Hu Order in the Yang World and find some helpers. When you are ready, I can activate the magic circle. Then you can return to the Yellow Spring World without alerting the Void-bellied Ghost King!"
"At that time, you will hold the Killing Hu Order and quickly kill Chihu, and then kill Xudu's real body while it is asleep, and everything will be accomplished!"
Li Daoxuan's heart moved. If what Zhou Laodao said was correct, then this was indeed a good idea.
If a passage connecting the Yin and Yang worlds can really be opened up here in Dushuo Mountain, it will be a powerful weapon against the Xudu Ghost King!
You have to know that Li Daoxuan is more than just himself. Behind him stand Longhu Mountain and Qingming Realm.
Oh, and there is also Maoshan.
Their own disciple got lost in the underworld, they couldn't just stand by and watch.
Thinking about it this way, Li Daoxuan felt that there was great potential. Of course, he did not completely let down his guard. Who knew if this Taoist Zhou was lying?
When he returns to the world of the living, he will first ask his uncle if he knows this Taoist Zhou.
If it is true, then this Taoist Zhou has a feud with the Underworld to exterminate his entire family, so it can be believed for the time being.
"Master Zhou, I will consider your suggestion."
Taoist Zhou sighed and said, "I know that you don't completely trust me yet, but time will tell. You might as well stay here and practice in Dushuo Mountain for a while. After a month, when you return to the world of the living, you will know whether what I said is true or not."
After a pause, he said, "By the way, although this peach tree is dead, it still has some spirituality left. Practicing around it can achieve twice the result with half the effort."
Li Daoxuan's heart moved. Is there such a good thing?
