"Damn it!" After cursing, Zhang He Da still had to explain the situation to his confidant, as the matter needed to be handled by him. If he didn’t understand the situation and messed things up, what would they do?

"The current Chancellor Tuo Tuo values Confucianism. He has recruited a group of Confucian scholars to compile the history of the previous dynasty. He even wants to revive Confucianism... Have you ever thought about who in the world today can tolerate Confucianism?" Zhang He Da said.

Zhang Wuyan was startled, suddenly remembering that Zhang He Da was a household slave of Prince Cheng. Could it be that Prince Cheng opposes Chancellor Tuo Tuo?

Thinking about these deep and unfathomable secrets, Zhang Wuyan immediately shivered. He dared not listen any further: "Your servant will immediately think of a way to resolve the matter in the prison!"

"Go ahead!"

Seeing that Zhang Wuyan understood the severity, Zhang He Da turned from anger to joy and said.

Just as Zhang Wuyan was about to leave, he saw a bailiff running over in a panic: "Sir, something is wrong, something is wrong!"

Zhang He Da looked at the bailiff with disgust. What did he mean by "something is wrong"?

"Panicking like this, what kind of appearance is that? Speak quickly!" Zhang Wuyan whispered sternly.

The bailiff was startled and quickly said: "The statue of the prison god is bleeding, it has already been broken..."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Wuyan's hair almost stood on end. If the statue of the prison god was broken, it clearly indicated a major problem!

Zhang He Da's face turned ashen, and he kicked the bailiff in the chest with a powerful kick. With his skilled horsemanship and great strength, he kicked the bailiff to death on the spot.

"Zhang Wuyan!"

"Your servant is here!"

"Relying solely on the strength of our household is not enough. Go and report to the Darughachi and mobilize the military households!"

Zhang Wuyan was startled upon hearing this. Sending in the army? Wasn't it overkill to use a sledgehammer to crack a nut? However, he definitely dared not say such things and simply bowed, saying: "Yes!"

"How can I escape? Can you provide such a service?" Liu Buyi asked the Palace of the Divine Heaven.

When Liu Buyi learned that the Palace of the Divine Heaven could offer credit, he was overjoyed. As long as he could escape, anything was fine. He did not want to stay in this wretched place any longer.

The Palace of the Divine Heaven immediately presented a large array of options, which turned out to be various items. From a precious sword worth 100 contribution points to a gun worth 100 contribution points, all kinds of strange and unusual items appeared in his mind.

Liu Buyi was stunned, never knowing that the Palace of the Divine Heaven could sell physical items. But thinking about it, the Palace of the Divine Heaven had mentioned before that it accepted grain, cloth, medicine, gold, silver, and all kinds of items in exchange for contribution points.

Since the Palace of the Divine Heaven could accept these items, it was not surprising that it could sell some items!

There were too many strange and unusual items, but this was the Palace of the Divine Heaven, after all. It seemed to be a place of immortals, so how could there be so many technological creations? At least a few magical treasures should be there!

His thoughts shifted, and he saw the options change. A lamp identical to the one held by Zhenyangzi required one million contribution points, which almost made Liu Buyi want to vomit blood.

He suddenly realized that it wasn't that the Palace of the Divine Heaven couldn't provide good items, but that he simply couldn't afford them.

At this moment, Zhenyangzi finally returned leisurely and called out: "Buyi!"

Liu Buyi put away his thoughts and replied honestly: "Your disciple is here!"

Since the Palace of the Divine Heaven couldn't help him, it seemed that to survive and escape the prison, he still needed to rely on Zhenyangzi!

"A powerful enemy will soon arrive. I will teach you a Daoist technique to protect yourself and kill the enemy!" Zhenyangzi said.

Liu Buyi immediately responded affirmatively.

"I will grant you a sub-lamp of the Green Yang Divine Lamp for you to use," Zhenyangzi said, holding out his lamp and making a gesture. Strangely, a lamp identical to the Green Yang Divine Lamp appeared.

He handed the lamp to Liu Buyi: "This is a sub-lamp. Although it is not as powerful as the main lamp I hold, it still has great power!"

Liu Buyi's face lit up with joy, and the Palace of the Divine Heaven immediately evaluated it at 50,000 contribution points.

According to the exchange rate of one contribution point for ten taels of silver, this sub-lamp was worth at least 500,000 taels. Converted to RMB, it would be about 15 million.

Zhenyangzi's generosity immediately reduced Liu Buyi's suspicions!

Liu Buyi took the Green Yang Divine Lamp, closed his eyes, and quickly entered a meditative state. At the center of his brow, the Heavenly Heart opened, and golden light appeared.

At the same moment, the Green Yang Divine Lamp in Liu Buyi's hand was lit, and the light, though small, was quite warm.

Zhenyangzi nodded continuously, thinking that his newly received disciple had good potential and could understand things quickly. He had already grasped the use of the Green Yang Divine Lamp.

The mind is the abode of the spirit. The Heavenly Heart is precisely where the spirit resides.

"You have the Green Yang Divine Lamp and good potential. The technique I will teach you is called the Demon Summoning Technique. You must visualize the image of a mountain ghost..."

Liu Buyi frowned for a long time, unable to imagine what a mountain ghost looked like. The image of a mountain ghost is very common, found in many temples. Ordinary people can easily visualize it when mentioned.

But Liu Buyi was clearly not from this world and had no idea what a mountain ghost looked like!

Seeing that Liu Buyi couldn't visualize it, Zhenyangzi laughed. He had already reached the level of a grandmaster, not someone who clung to outdated practices.

He laughed and said, "Just think of the most powerful and terrifying ghost in your mind. Visualize it as clearly as possible in front of the Green Yang Divine Lamp, and try to imagine every detail clearly!"

He then explained the details in detail.

Modern people might lack other strengths, but their understanding and imagination are not bad. Soon, Liu Buyi mastered the incantation and began to visualize in front of the Green Yang Divine Lamp.

Subconsciously, Liu Buyi brought various images of ghosts and monsters to mind.

Even before his brain had fully processed it, the images were already clearly visualized in his mind.

It was as if his body reacted before his brain had time to process it!

However, the ghost Liu Buyi visualized was projected into the Green Yang Divine Lamp in his hand. The white flame of the lamp revealed a figure wearing a top hat and a red and green striped sweater.

One hand was a metal claw, and the body was extremely emaciated from malnutrition, with burn scars all over the face and body.

At this moment, both Zhenyangzi and Liu Buyi were puzzled.

Zhenyangzi thought to himself: What kind of ghost is this? It doesn't seem very powerful.

Liu Buyi, however, was puzzled and thought to himself: Why did I visualize Freddy?
