Terrifying Heavens: I'll directly worship the Black Law of Fengdu!

Chapter 56 Luofu Mountain

The following day, Taipei News made another big news story, and it was all about murder cases.

Li Xuan stood next to the irritable milk tea shop, watching the customers in line being yelled at, drinking his milk tea, and buying a newspaper to read the contents.

[At 2 a.m. today, two charred bodies were discovered in Agong Alley; a young woman and a street thug were found dead!]

[At 4 AM today, an FBI investigator from the United States who came to Taiwan to assist in the investigation of a series of bizarre murders was found dead in a hotel; her tongue had been pulled out!]

Li Xuan stared at the newspaper pictures and fell silent.

The first news item was about Xie Yali's tragic death. He saw it when he went there in the early morning. The thug who died next to him was Chen Liangwang, the fourth victim in the movie.

Li Xuan guessed that while he was cursing Xie Yali, she was killing Chen Liangwang, hence the two corpses, but he didn't know who set the fire.

He had suspected the immortal "sister," but then felt it didn't make sense because there was no need for it.

The second piece of news is that Kevin Wright, the fifth "non-believer" in the original series, is dead. But... if the source, Shea Li, is dead, who will continue to kill the demons who are trying to become immortals?
Often, the most outrageous things are the closest to the truth, especially in paranormal movies.

After reading the newspaper, Li Xuan immediately listed three murderers in his mind.

The first one is the sister who became an immortal. What if they were brothers in their past life and sisters in this life? They might just have to finish the relationship.

The second is Sheng Zuchang. In the original drama, this old man played the strategist in Huang Huotu's investigation of "Five Prisons to Become Immortals," specializing in researching phenomena that science cannot explain and ancient folk culture. When Huang Huotu was confused, he would always point out the doubts at just the right time. Based on his answers, Huang Huotu would then go to Zhenxian Temple again to face Xie Yali, who had already killed the murderous demon, just in time.

The third is Yellow Fire Earth.

It's very simple. This guy has a special destiny; he's the most important link in the journey from the Five Hells to Immortality.

Xie Yali was willing to abandon even his "disciples" and a group of "believers" in the True Immortal Temple, but he insisted on thanking Huang Huotu for his physical disintegration and taking them with him to ascend to heaven.

Taoism officially entered the public eye starting with the Five Pecks of Rice sect at the end of the Han Dynasty, and its scale, quantity, and scriptures gradually improved.

Due to various ideological differences, they were divided into various distinctive factions, such as Shangqing Maoshan, Tianshi Longhushan, Lushan School, Shenxiao School, Fengyue School, Laoshan School, etc.

The manifestation of the times and cognition will influence the thinking of people at that time.

However, all sects and schools unanimously agree that becoming an immortal is an extremely difficult thing, and it cannot be achieved without great perseverance, great opportunity, great courage, and great benevolence!
Xie Yali's cruel method of achieving immortality through the Five Hells might actually be feasible.

But taking someone to ascension is truly impossible, even with scriptures and magical artifacts bestowed upon him by the Supreme Lord Laozi. Moreover, due to his excessive methods of exorcising demons, he was almost punished by the Northern Emperor Shu Xu, but fortunately, he survived thanks to the guarantee of the Xuanzhong Sect Master...

Li Xuan accumulated Taoist knowledge and classic texts over the past six months.

There is only one legend that can lead people to ascension, which comes from Wang Chong's "Lunheng Daoxu" in the Han Dynasty. The original text is as follows: "The Confucian books say that the King of Huainan studied the Dao and gathered all the people in the world who were virtuous. He disregarded the dignity of the whole country and humbled himself before the Daoist practitioners. As a result, all the Daoist practitioners gathered in Huainan, and all kinds of strange methods and techniques were presented. The king then attained the Dao, and his whole family ascended to heaven. Even his livestock became immortals. Dogs barked in the sky, and roosters crowed in the clouds."

The translation is that Liu An achieved success in cultivating Taoism and refining elixirs, attained enlightenment and ascended to heaven. Then, the chickens and dogs in his household ate the remaining elixirs and also ascended to heaven.

This is the origin of the idiom "when one person attains enlightenment, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven"...

However, in some other legends, it is said that besides Liu An, there was also Zhang Bairen, the Jade Emperor, who was invited to become the Jade Emperor. He couldn't bear to part with the chickens and ducks in his yard, so he took them to heaven as well.

Li Xuan took out his phone and dialed a number that only he knew about the Yellow Fire Earth Continent.

Almost instantly.

Huang Huotu's voice came through: "Brother, was it resolved so quickly?"

Li Xuan cut to the chase: "Officer Huang, do you know an academician named Sheng Zuchang? Where does he live? Send me any information you have." Huang Huotu hesitated for a moment, then said, "Academician Sheng Zuchang, he's a highly respected and kind man. You wouldn't suspect he's involved in the Five Hells Ascension to Immortality, would you...?"

Li Xuan said, "I risked my life to help, and then you question my speculation?"

Huang Huotu was momentarily speechless and didn't know what to say.

Li Xuan didn't want to put too much pressure on him, so he said, "I have destroyed the True Immortal Temple. Many believers, two leaders, and Xie Yali are all dead."

Huang Huotu was shocked. He knew this would definitely result in deaths, but from what Li Xuan said, it seemed that many people had died...

Li Xuan recounted what had happened at the home of believer Lü Ming.

Huang Huotu fell silent instantly. Taiwan has a rich folk culture, and every year some inexplicable religious activities from outside attract a bunch of unsuspecting people who use the name of gods to extort money, and even target pretty believers...

He had been a policeman in Taipei for many years, and he had encountered this kind of thing before.

With the recent incident of the Five Prisons Becoming Immortals, Huang Huotu was forced to leave Taiwan Island. During this time, he thought about many things, from the first day he became a policeman until now, and he has come to understand many things.

If we can successfully overcome this ordeal.

He must consider the thoughts of those around him, treat his daughter well, and try to get Cai Qingfang back to reconcile.

Li Xuan and Huang Huotu talked for a long time. Huang Huotu said that he was in the Luofu Mountain area of ​​Guangdong, mainland China. He couldn't let Li Xuan fight against evil forces alone in Taiwan. He also wanted to do his part, investigate, and see if he could help.

Li Xuan was worried: "You'd better not get involved in this. Think about your daughter!"

When dealing with someone who values ​​family ties, the most effective way to communicate is to directly bring up the family bond.

He couldn't be bothered to explain or offer comfort.

Huang Huotu had no choice but to agree to leave Mount Luofu and not cause any more trouble...

Ten minutes later.

Li Xuan received a text message from Huang Huotu containing Sheng Zuchang's detailed address and identity information.

Soldiers are very fast!
Xie Yali died, his soul disappeared, and his body mysteriously caught fire!
It must have alarmed "Sister," and there are also potential "believers" helping Xie Yali complete the ritual.

Li Xuan must race against time!

After finishing his milk tea, he hailed a taxi to the residential area where Sheng Zuchang lived. Wearing sunglasses and a hat, he climbed over the wall from a hidden corner, found the building number, and located the room.

He rang the doorbell, holding the small cardboard box he had found, and called out, "Sir, there's a package for you."

The door creaked open, and the man in his sixties wearing a plaid shirt was none other than Sheng Zuchang. Before he could even speak, Li Xuan saw the familiar dust filling the air and kicked him in the chest!

Sheng Zuchang cried out and rolled into the house.

Li Xuan stepped inside and locked the door behind him.

Sheng Zuchang looked panicked, hiding his right hand behind his back, and said, "You, you, who are you? Trespassing! I've called the police!"

Li Xuan reached for his waist with his right hand, and with a swish, a gleaming, sharp cleaver appeared in his palm: "Xie Yali is dead, and you're in a hurry?"
