Just when Jiang Qingjiu and the others left the Imperial Tomb, the three members of the Shang family rushed to the Styx in Xindifu.

Zhao Danzhu and the mysterious man in the River Styx were still worried about whether the terrifying existence on the Huangquan Road would break through the barrier and run out and kill them. They don't know that their actions have attracted the attention of their upper family members.

"Brother, you say, how did those people get into the River Styx?"

Shang Fengfeng followed Shang Heng and was rushing to the River Styx, and the old man left the two behind early.

Shang Heng thought about it, except for those in the different space, no other people went down to the emperor's tomb, if someone can enter the Styx River under the nose of the master now, then there is only one possibility, that is, the crack in the other space teleported them here, will this be some kind of providence.

"I've asked you, brother. What are you thinking?" asked Shang Bongbong, purssing his lips.

Shang Heng smiled awkwardly and returned: "It is very likely that it was a crack in the other dimension that teleported them directly into the River Styx." ”

"How is that possible? Mr. Ghost, how could you set the passage of another dimension in the River Styx. Shang Bong Bong said with some pride, watching Shang Heng make such an unrealistic analysis and secretly make fun of it.

Shang Heng said very seriously: "It's not impossible. ”

......

When the two siblings arrived at the scene of the incident, the old man was the only one at the scene. The blue light from the torch reflected on the old man's face, and his wrinkled face revealed a solemnity and solemnity. His eyes were blazing, staring at the dark scene in front of him.

"Grandpa, what are you looking at?" Shang Bong Bong stepped aside and asked, "Those people?"

Shang Heng put his finger to the corner of his mouth and made a gesture to prohibit sound.

The old man seemed to be relieved, looked at the two children in front of him, and squeezed out a smile, now his mind was full of the scene he had seen when he first arrived.

Those who sneaked into the River Styx were doing some kind of formation here, but at the moment when they appeared, there was a sudden sound of water flowing, and water suddenly appeared in the River Styx, and then a black gate appeared, which seemed to lead to an endless void, and it looked bottomless.

Just as he was about to make a move, out of the black gate came a tall, shriveled man, his face was cut in half, and he looked extremely hideous, and on his back was a huge black scimitar, stained with dried blood, and behind him were two equally hideous-looking hounds with burning blood.

At this time, the old man was overwhelmed, according to the description of the ancestors, this man was likely to be the ghost king in the underworld, and his own strength might be able to fight with him, but obviously this was unwise. They also have to guard the secrets behind the entire imperial tomb, not just an underworld.

Watching the ghost king pick up the two living people in front of him, the old man finally held back and didn't make a move.

"The ruthlessness of the underworld has come out!" said the old man.

Shangheng and Shangfeng are all discolored, what does this mean, they are clear, no wonder Grandpa Tai is so distracted.

Shang Heng asked, "Was it released by an outsider?"

The old man shook his head and denied: "It was not released by outsiders, but on the contrary, the mysterious existence brought outsiders into the underworld. “

"Living people can also enter the underworld!" The education he received since childhood made Shang Fengfeng obviously unable to believe that there were people in this world who could still have such means.

"Master, what should we do next?" Shangheng asked with some urgency.

The old man thought about it, after so many years, the enchantment inside is estimated to be getting weaker and weaker. Since that ghost king can come out, even if we strengthen the barrier, we will be aware of it, and it will inevitably be a scuffle at that time, after some careful consideration. The old man said very resolutely, and his deep voice was also full of non-negotiable tones,

"You guys go back first, I have to negotiate with that ghost king, we have been waiting for the secret for so many years, we can't just stop keeping it so easily!"

Shang Fengfeng still wanted to say something, but Shangheng patted his sister's shoulder and said, "Let's go, Fengfeng, you don't know the temperament of the master." ”

The two brothers and sisters stood in the distance, watching the old man raise the jade pendant in his hand, and walked into a door that was slowly opening with firm steps, leaving only a slightly rickety figure in the end.

......

The night was cold, and cold winds were blowing all around, both in the city and on the outskirts of the city. The goose-feathered snow began to fall one after another, and in the middle of the night, most people had already entered into their dreams, and this snowfall that had just begun was still only appreciated by a few people.

In a dilapidated house on the outskirts of Xi'an, the heating source has been cut off, and the sink in the kitchen is covered with a thick layer of ice ballast, as if no one lives here.

At this time, the door of the house was suddenly pushed open, and the door hit the wall heavily, making a bang, and the person who opened the door entered the house with a trace of panic and fear.

"Zhao Danzhu, you go and turn on the lights. ”

The man in the back said impatiently.

Zhao Danzhu stood at the door and closed the door, and then the cold wind that rushed in stopped abruptly. I flipped the switch on the wall.

A European-style headlamp hangs on the roof of the house, and yellow light fills the room.

The light shone on the faces of the two of them, which were somewhat stunned and frightened, making the originally somewhat pale faces look a little angry.

He took a heavy breath and sat down on the leather brown couch in disobedience. The whole person seems to be in a state of extreme relaxation, closing his eyes and beginning to enjoy the reality of life!

After a while, the chill slowly hit, the mysterious man opened his eyes, there was still some horror in his eyes, he shook his body, walked to the fireplace in front of him, poured it into it with an iron stick, and without speaking, he went out of the house, and brought in a bundle of wood from the outside, and just as he was about to light the fire, he heard a noise from the kitchen,

"Damn, why is it freezing!"

Zhao Danzhu was a little angry, and chiseled a few times with a water scoop.

The mysterious man smiled, smiling expressionlessly, and set the wood on fire in the fireplace.

The sparks that ignited made him feel extremely real, and the hands that were slowly warming up beside the flames finally regained a trace of blood.

After a while, Zhao Danzhu walked out of the kitchen, his face was a little depressed, holding a steaming kettle in one hand and two bottom cups in the other.

Zhao Danzhu sat opposite the mysterious man and put the things in his hand on the wooden table in the middle.

"Drink?"

"What's that?"

"Freshly brewed coffee. ”

Zhao Danzhu poured himself a cup, and bursts of heat came out of the quilt, with the smell of coffee.

The mysterious man crossed Erlang's legs, laughed, and poured himself a glass.

He took a sip of it and frowned and scolded, "You fucking, you didn't put sugar." ”

Zhao Danzhu put the empty cup in his hand aside and scolded back: "You stupid fork, where is the sugar from this place!"

The mystery man smiled and held the cup in his hand to keep warm.

Zhao Danzhu took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, handed them over, and asked, "Do you smoke?"

The mystery man waved his hand.

Zhao Danzhu naturally and skillfully withdrew his hand, took out a cigarette from it, put it in his mouth, took out an old-fashioned lighter, and pressed it.

The cigarette was quickly lit, and after a few puffs, the smoke filled the room, which was not very airy.

"Did you say we survived by luck?" asked the mysterious man suddenly.

Zhao Danzhu nodded, then shook his head again, smiled and said, "It's not all luck, both sides have their own benefits." ”

Looking at the calendar hanging on the wall, the mysterious man pointed at it and said, "The day after tomorrow is the New Year." ”

Zhao Danzhu didn't think so, what about the New Year, for their cleaned families, there was only one person left alive, what was there to be happy about this kind of reunion.

The mysterious man was speechless for a while, and his brain actually remembered Shadow and Li Yimeng again, why did these two people betray the organization, don't they understand that betrayal is equivalent to death!

Dingdingding......

A short cell phone rang suddenly, and the mysterious man took it out of his pocket, looked at it, got up and went to the window to answer the phone.

On the other end of the phone was a very old voice,

"Where are you?"

The mysterious man was stunned, and immediately reacted, and returned: "In the old place, I just came up from below." “

"Is it done?"

It's still the same old voice.

The mysterious man returned: "It's done." “

"Whether it works out or not, three guests will come to your side and they will give you instructions. “

Before the mysterious man could reply, the other party hung up the phone first.

Zhao Danzhu looked at the mysterious person standing by the window, stood up, and asked, "That person beat him?"

The mystery man nodded in acquiescence.

"What did you say?" Zhao Danzhu asked curiously.

The mysterious man walked over to the couch, picked up the kettle, and asked, "Do you have any coffee?" “

Zhao Danzhu pointed to the cabinet next to the kitchen door and said, "There's a lot of coffee in it." ”

The mysterious man walked towards the kitchen, and next to the door was a two-open solid wood cabinet, which he opened with a kettle in one hand and coffee in the other.

"The water in it freezes, and you chisel the ice open and slowly let the ice melt in the kettle first. Zhao Danzhu leaned against the door and asked, "Who are they, did you say it clearly?"

The mysterious man shook his head, looked at the frozen water tank, and turned back to approve, "You can make coffee this way, you can really do it." It was only said that there would be three people, but it was not said who it was. I guess it's almost time to implement the plan, let them help. ”

Zhao Danzhu asked with some curiosity: "The old man who traded with me is not coming?"

The mysterious man smiled a little disdainfully, and said: "Those old men, maybe they will come, maybe they will watch the play in the dark, maybe they won't come, no one can guess what they think." ”

"Aren't they trying to use this catastrophe to build momentum?"

The mysterious man glanced at Zhao Danzhu viciously and said, "You have to say less about this kind of thing." ”

The mysterious man clapped his hands, walked out of the kitchen, sat down on the sofa lazily, and said, "Wait for them to come, say with instructions!"
