Chapter 124: The Ferryman
"Where?" Ye Xiu asked.
Shen Yuhan pointed in a direction, Ye Xiu did not delay, and rushed towards that direction with Shen Yuhan.
However, when he arrived at that place, the woman in Shen Yuhan's mouth had long since disappeared, and there was only one shoe on the ground, Ye Xiu's face changed slightly, and he said in a low voice: "We may be late." ”
"So, what should I do then? Could she have been eaten?" Shen Yuhan said with a pale face and trembling.
"Probably not for the time being!" Ye Xiu pondered, he had just noticed that when the three black shadows were chasing Shen Yuhan, they obviously had the strength and the opportunity to kill her, but the other party did not do so, obviously wanting to catch her alive.
Ye Xiu glanced down at the shoes on the ground, it was a women's canvas shoe, it should have been left by the woman when she was struggling, if it was struggling, then there should be some traces left on the ground.
Ye Xiu squatted down, carefully inspected it on the ground, observed for a while, and suddenly got up and pointed to the street on the right and said, "This way." ”
"How do you know?" Shen Yuhan said strangely.
Ye Xiu said lightly: "There are traces left by dragging on the ground, and they are going in this direction." "The trail of drag on the ground is very shallow, and the fog obscures it, even with his eyesight, it is difficult to detect without careful observation.
Shen Yuhan sighed, didn't speak, just glanced at Ye Xiu curiously.
Ye Xiu followed the traces left on the ground and chased all the way forward, along the way, the two of them could be said to have opened their eyes, and saw a lot of strange-shaped monsters, with jumping heads, cats with three heads, resentful spirits floating around, dark clouds with smiling faces, and so on.
Fortunately, the strength of these monsters is not very strong, but anyone who dares to provoke them was all killed by Ye Xiu with one punch, and Shen Yuhan's eyes lit up.
To be honest, at the beginning, she was surprised and curious about Ye Xiu's methods that can only be seen in films, television and novels, but gradually, only curiosity remained, and there was no surprise.
If it was placed in the past, she really couldn't imagine that there would be such a person in reality, like a martial arts master, but now she is almost relieved, or numb, she really bumps into ghosts a lot, maybe she will get used to it.
After all, since there can be such a terrifying place in the world, and there are so many strange things, what is it to have a Taoist priest or martial arts master who slays demons and destroys demons?
Even if someone stood in front of her and told her that I was a rescuer sent by the monkeys, she would probably accept it calmly and would not be surprised.
It's hard to change an established worldview, but once it collapses, it's easy to accept something else.
In fact, in their entertainment industry, they are more convinced of this kind of gods, ghosts, luck, feng shui and other things, and they are more familiar with it, and it is easier to accept.
"Ah, help!"
Following the traces on the ground, the two had just chased to a square, and suddenly, countless black shadows with no facial features and seven senses silently drilled out of the ground and pounced on the two.
The black shadows appeared silently, and the speed was extremely fast, before Ye Xiu could react, two of the black shadows directly grabbed Shen Yuhan on the side and dragged them towards the darkness, and the remaining dozen or so black shadows actually blocked in front of Ye Xiu and surrounded him.
Ye Xiu frowned, these black shadows actually knew how to cooperate, could it be that they were wise, or were they controlled by intelligent monsters or people?
Ye Xiu didn't move, and the dozen or so black shadows surrounding him didn't move either, as if these black shadows didn't have any interest in him, and their target was just Shen Yuhan.
"Since you don't move, then you don't have to move!"
Ye Xiu's eyes narrowed slightly, he snorted coldly, his hands pressed down, as if moving, the majestic true qi surged out, the void froze, and the surrounding void suddenly became heavy, as if there was a mountain, pressed horizontally between heaven and earth.
"Nine changes in heaven and demons, moving mountains"
The corners of Ye Xiu's mouth raised slightly, as if he was smiling, he put his hands behind his back and chased in the direction where Shen Yuhan was taken away.
And more than a dozen black shadows stood quietly in place, letting Ye Xiu pass past them in a grand manner, without any reaction, like puppets.
After Ye Xiu walked out of a distance, the dozen or so black shadows first trembled strangely, and then they all shattered, turning into a wisp of mist, annihilating and invisible.
Who is the enemy of the power of moving mountains?
To tell the truth, the strength of these black shadows is not as good as the human skin puppets of the skinning people, and it really doesn't take much effort to deal with them, and it is enough to move mountains in one go!
After killing these black shadows, Ye Xiu did not immediately catch up, but dropped far behind Shen Yuhan, he wanted to see where these black shadows would catch her?
After following the two black shadows for about half an hour, the black shadows came to a river, the river was wide and boundless, and there was no end in sight, but the strange thing was that the river was not prosperous, and the stagnant water was a pool, showing a turbid yellowish brown, with an indescribable filth and evil.
On the bank of the river, there was a small canopy parked, and on the boat sat an old man with a hat on his head and a face that could not be seen clearly.
The old man was holding a fishing rod in his hand, and with each rod, a black mass was lifted up and thrown on the shore.
As soon as the black things were thrown ashore, they began to wriggle, and then, like a mass of noodles, they were rubbed and stretched into a black figure.
has no eyes, no nose, no ears and no mouth, exactly the same as the black shadow holding Shen Yuhan.
I saw the old man raise the pole and drop the pole, and after a while, the shore was full of dense black shadows, no less than thirty or forty.
Only at this time did the old man stop what he was doing, and glanced up at Ye Xiu's direction, his eyes were unwavering, and there was no trace of anger.
Ye Xiu didn't deliberately hide his breath, and he wasn't surprised when he was discovered, and walked towards the old man brightly.
"Help, master, help!"
Seeing Ye Xiu appear, Shen Yuhan, who was caught by two black shadows, hurriedly shouted.
Ye Xiu waved his hand, signaled Shen Yuhan to be quiet, looked at the old man, and said bluntly: "Who are you, or rather, what are you?"
"Old man ferryman!" the old man's voice was hoarse, as if two gears were spinning, squeezing the sound to pieces, which was extremely weird.
"Ferryman?" Ye Xiu raised his eyebrows, he had just seen a skinning man a few days ago, and now there was another ferryman, all the way?
"Ferryman, what are you doing, what are you catching them for?"
Through the gap of the old man, Ye Xiu could see that there were several women sitting in the cabin.
The old man had to answer all questions, and said: "The ferryman, walking in the two worlds of yin and yang, crossing life and sending death, is called a ferryman." ”
"Walking in the Yin and Yang Realms, Crossing Life and Sending Death?" Ye Xiu was puzzled: "So, this is the underworld?"
"Is there an underworld?"
"Are there ten halls of Yama?"
"There are eighteen hells, do you listen to Jizo Bodhisattva?"
Ye Xiu seemed to be interested, and a series of questions were thrown, which immediately smashed the old man's face in confusion.
What's the matter, do you just want to die like that?
