After spreading it out, it was a triangular roll of broken ancient paintings, with dense, mottled and obscure golden-red patterns remaining.

Just at a glance, these patterns seemed to be alive, and gradually began to twist strangely, like some kind of wriggling insects.

But when he shook his head and looked over, he found that the pattern had not moved at all, as if everything just now was an illusion.

"Indeed……."

Zuo Chongming bit the tip of his tongue hard, his confused eyes suddenly became clear, and a look of horror appeared on his face: "The List of Gods."

Yes, its real name is Fengshen Bang.

It's not the so-called soul-locking scroll that Concubine Liu said at all.

But, this is actually not the fault of Concubine Liu.

Zuo Chongming estimated that the infamous name of the Soul Locking Scroll was probably given by a certain self-righteous Shabi in Dongxu Valley.

anyway.

Since the Conferred Gods List is called Conferred Gods, then of course it is for the purpose of conferring Gods.

Strictly speaking, it should be to canonize the soul of a strong person to make his true spirit immortal.

In ancient times, the holder of the Conferred God List suddenly fell ill and sealed a pervert inside. Unexpectedly, this pervert was actually the peak master of the Jiange Pavilion.

You must know that Jiange not only has the Zhuxian Formation that rivals it, but also has n magical weapons.

So as expected, the people from the Sword Pavilion smelled the smell and came to the door, using a killing thing like the Immortal Killing Sword Formation to forcibly break the list of gods.

Since then, the list of gods has been divided into two pieces and scattered all over the world, and no one has collected them all until now.

Speaking of which, we have to mention Emperor Wu.

At that time, Taizu of the Wu Dynasty relied on this half of the list of gods to conquer the world and establish the Wu Dynasty.

In the following hundreds of years, there were also some crises that shook the country, and in the end the emperor used this trump card to overturn the situation.

But why is it that in Nan Hao's generation, the Conferred God List can no longer be used?

In fact, the reason is very simple...

Because the list of gods is full!

Taizu of the Wu Dynasty and emperors of all dynasties thought that the capacity of the list of gods was unlimited, but in fact they were completely wrong.

The complete list of gods can canonize a total of 108 souls, but the remaining half can accommodate forty souls, which is good.

Back then, when Taizu of the Wu Dynasty was conquering the world, in order to live up to the loyalty of his subordinates, he would confer a few titles from time to time...

By the time it was passed on to future generations, there were not many places left, and successive emperors used it to turn the tables and canonize some souls.

When it was passed to Nan Hao's generation, the quota was already full, so his sacrifice was destined to fail.

Take ten thousand steps back.

Even if there is still a quota, Nan Hao will still fail. This is related to the method of use discovered by Taizu of the Wu Dynasty.

The method used by Taizu of the Wu Dynasty was to temporarily integrate it with the Conferred Gods List through sacrifices, obtain part of the authority, and then use it.

But he ignored one issue, and that was strength.

Taizu of the Wu Dynasty was a strong man himself, and the sacrifice method he found was acceptable to him personally.

But his successor is far less powerful than him, and his successor cannot bear the consumption he can endure.

The first few generations were fine, but the emperors became less powerful as they went to later generations. Later, sacrificing sacrifices was almost equivalent to sacrificing one's life.

Therefore, given Wuhuang Nanhao's strength and his condition at the time, it was impossible for him to succeed even if he had a quota.

Ultimately, it can only be blamed on luck.

To put it in more superstitious terms: This means that the Wu Dynasty has run out of energy and God is going to destroy it.

"The remaining half is in the hands of Dongxugu."

Zuo Chongming squinted his eyes, thoughtfully: "We have to find a way... maybe the Qingqiu Fox Clan can take advantage of it."

Originally, he didn't think so much about it, just half of the list of gods was enough.

But now that he knew the existence of the other half, of course he had to find a way to get it.

"Hu Mei."

"Master Hou, do you want me to have something wrong?"

"close the door."

Zuo Chongming raised his chin and motioned for her to sit down: "Do you want to save your mother?"

Hu Mei touched his eyes and seemed to understand something, her expression suddenly became excited: "Master Marquis, have you really got that thing? Then what are your plans..."

Zuo Chongming asked: "I would like to ask you, does the eight-tailed old fox on Qingqiu Mountain know what the artifact of the Wu Dynasty is?"

Hu Mei smiled bitterly: "Well, she didn't elaborate. She only said that when Emperor Wu was on his deathbed, he would naturally take out the magical weapon and reverse the situation."

Contrary to her expectation, Zuo Chongming laughed out loud: "That will be easy to handle."

"Um?"

Hu Mei was stunned and didn't understand what he meant.

Zuo Chongming said softly: "The third prince's biological mother, Concubine Liu, is accused of regicide and assassination. If Nanchuan and Nanyun want to ascend the throne, they must be convicted of this crime."

Having said this, a cruel smile appeared on his face: "I would like to ask you, how can you prove a person's crime without being retaliated against?"

"Dead men cannot speak."

Zuo Chongming nodded approvingly, picked up the tea and blew it: "Yes, so Concubine Liu is dead, and she will bear the blame."

"Once the old fox in Qingqiu learns about this matter, he will definitely suspect that Concubine Liu's actions are related to the artifact, and then associate it with Dongxu Valley."

"What a coincidence, Hu Yingying's two foxes are currently in the hands of the Thirteenth Prince Nanchuan. He and the Third Prince are enemies."

Hu Mei suddenly said: "You mean that after Qingqiu gets this news, he will send people to contact Nanchuan and unite to deal with the third prince."

"That's right."

Zuo Chongming nodded: "Whether it is plotting a divine weapon or the safety of Hu Yingying and the two of them, the Qingqiu Fox Clan will definitely do this."

"And the reverse is also true. At this juncture, Nanchuan will definitely draw in all the forces that can be drawn in, even demons."

Hu Mei licked her lips excitedly: "What's next?"

"The stakes are high."

Zuo Chongming said quietly: "Whether it is Nanchuan or Qingqiu, it is necessary to send high-level officials to meet and discuss in detail."

"But the old fox won't come out. Qingqiu has lost two more seven-tailed foxes, and there is only one left that can move."

Hu Mei slapped the table and gritted her teeth and said: "As long as we intercept and kill..."

"Why did you intercept and kill her?"

The corner of Zuo Chongming's mouth twitched, and he looked at her as if she was mentally retarded.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Hu Mei’s forehead was sweating when he looked at her, and she asked with a dry smile: “Aren’t you going to kill me?”

Zuo Chongming glanced at her and said in a neutral tone: "Think about it again."

Seeing this, Hu Mei shrank her head subconsciously and racked her brains to recall.

Fully half an hour passed.

She raised her head suddenly and looked at Zuo Chongming in shock: "What you mean is..."

Zuo Chongming raised his eyelids: "Have you thought of it?"

"Um."

Hu Mei nodded excitedly: "When Hu Yingying was captured alive by you, I pretended to escape and returned to Beijing, and notified the Seventh Prince Nan Yu."

"Subsequently, he notified Qingqiu to send someone to rescue her, and asked you to escort Hu Yingying back to Beijing. That's when the flying boat was robbed."

"Not long after that incident happened, the eldest prince revealed the collusion between the seventh prince and the Qingqiu Fox Clan's demons through the flying boat incident..."

"This resulted in the Seventh Prince falling from his horse and being captured, while Hu Yingying and the two seven-tailed fox demons fled in a hurry and hid in the east of the capital xz."

"Until later, they didn't run out. Instead, you calculated their location and let the Thirteenth Prince capture them both."

"uh-huh."

Zuo Chongming was noncommittal and motioned for her to continue.

Hu Mei put her hands on her hands and smiled: "Although Hu Yingying and the others already know that I am a traitor,... Qingqiu doesn't know yet."

"That's right."

Zuo Chongming nodded: "So you are still a loyal undercover agent with the old fox in Qingqiu. This is our opportunity."

Hu Mei couldn't help but lean forward: "What are you going to do?"

"It's very simple, make up a story for her."

Zuo Chongming muttered: "Let's just say that you followed Emperor Wu and prepared to take action, but Concubine Liu took the lead and the two of you fought fiercely in the palace."
