Chapter Seventy-Three: The Man with Different Eyes

"You...... Let go of me!!"

Jiang Yao struggled to get up, but he couldn't move at all when his hands and feet were tied, and the yin-yang-eyed man riding on him ignored Jiang Yao's struggles and began to move his hands between Jiang Yao's clothes, as if looking for something.

"Where...... where did you hide the 'key'!?hand it over to me!!!" the man muttered, the pair of gold and silver eyes under the long bangs staring at Jiang Yao's stripped clothes, looking very hideous in the shadow of the hood.

"Stop, stop......! I don't know what you're talking about!!"

Jiang Yao scolded angrily, but the man still had no intention of stopping, such a humiliating situation made Jiang Yao's heart suddenly become nameless, and under the fluctuation of the ocean of energy in his body, Jiang Yao's eyes were suddenly filled with a layer of blood.

"I'll let you ...... Stop!!"

"Bang ——!"

With the purple electric light that erupted, a hammer slammed into the head of the man with yin and yang eyes, and the man finally let go of his hand and fell backwards.

"Hmm...... It hurts, it hurts!!"

The man covered his forehead and shouted, the previous arrogance seemed to be completely destroyed under Jiang Yao's blow, and even the hood was lifted under the impact, and Jiang Yao finally saw the young man's true appearance at this time.

This is a young man who looks only about 20 years old, although he is thin on the outside, but he hides a wild spirit, and the most conspicuous thing is the pair of gold and silver eyes behind his long bangs, which is unforgettable.

"Who the hell are you?!" Jiang Yao sat up, glared at the young man in front of him, and shouted.

"Hmph, and ask me who I am...... Who ......are you?!" The young man shook his head, staggered to his feet, and retorted angrily. "You're a big living person who will be here, and it can only be useful...... Huh?"

Halfway through his words, the young man's eyes suddenly focused on Jiang Yao's torn neckline, and the black mark on the collarbone suddenly caught the young man's eyes.

"...... 'Death Mark'?" the young man stared at the mark for a long time, then looked at the shackles in Jiang Yao's hand, and finally focused his gaze on Jiang Yao's face.

"'The living dead'? I see, no wonder they are targeted by ghosts. The young man held his chin and glanced up and down at Jiang Yao thoughtfully, and the overflowing hostility seemed to have subsided a lot. "You were brought to the Netherworld by black and white impermanence?"

"You haven't answered my question yet. Jiang Yao's anger had not subsided, and he didn't plan to answer at all, but before he could get up, he suddenly noticed a figure flashing in front of him, and in the blink of an eye, the young man was in front of him again, Jiang Yao was startled, and reflexively wanted to retreat, but found that his hand was being pulled by someone, and then a heartbeat with temperature passed through the palm.

"Do you feel it? My heart beats. The young man leaned down and pressed Jiang Yao's hand against his chest. "I, like you, am a living being. ”

Jiang Yao was stunned, but the temperature in the palm of his hand did indeed show the other party's living flesh and blood, just when he was shocked, the young man smiled and let go of his hand, and the restraint on Jiang Yao's hands and feet immediately dissipated, only to see that the shackles on his hands had disappeared with the command of the spirit banner in the young man's hand, and the pale yellow light cords on his feet had been quietly removed.

"There was a bit of a misunderstanding before, sorry sorry. The young man smiled, put away the spirit flag, and stretched out his hand at Jiang Yao. "My name is Lu Xingyue, the road on the side of the road, the star and the moon of the stars, what is your name?"

"......" Jiang Yao looked at the seemingly innocent and sassy face in front of him, which was very different from the cold and hideous appearance before, and the speed of changing his face was comparable to turning a book, but seeing that the other party had lifted the shackles on himself and apologized to himself, Jiang Yao didn't want to say anything, so he grabbed the outstretched hand and got up from the ground.

“…… Jiang Yao. The ginger of Jiang Ziya, the gossip of the six yao. ”

"'Ya'...... It seems to be the meaning of yin and yang, indicating the interlacing and change of fate, but it is also quite suitable for you......"

Lu Xingyue's pair of gold and silver eyes stared at Jiang Yao's eyes, as if he wanted to peek into the depths of Jiang Yao's pupils, but he quickly looked away again, looked at the puppet undead shadows not far away, and said:

"This neighborhood is full of these puppet undead who only have instinct left, your popularity is too conspicuous, you can't stay here anymore, follow me. ”

Lu Xingyue said, waved her cloak and beckoned Jiang Yao to move forward, but seeing that Jiang Yao was still vigilant and did not move, she also understood Jiang Yao's concerns, and opened her mouth a little funny:

"If I really want to harm you, I won't let you go, the whole Netherworld is just you and me, do you want to go back to the Earth Realm with me, or stay here to feed those puppets? or...... Waiting for the onicha to take you away again?"

"......" Jiang Yao's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard that he had the opportunity to return to the earth realm, and the current situation really did not allow him to make other choices, after thinking about it for a while, Jiang Yao finally relieved himself and asked:

"That'...... Where are we going now?"

"In the entire Netherworld, there is only one place where even the ghosts can't search on a large scale. Lu Xingyue pointed to the jagged buildings in the mist in the distance, and said quietly.

"Nine Springs Walled City. ”

-------------------------------

The dark purple sky shrouded the misty netherworld like a gloomy curtain, and on the edge of this otherworld, surrounded by eternal night, dense and hideous buildings lined up one after another, reaching into the sky, connecting each other into a treacherous walled city, like a cave in the fog that stood in the wilderness.

However, the interior of this "magic cave" is not as quiet as imagined, on the contrary, the flowing noise and all kinds of shadows shuttle between the buildings, the old lanterns and the dilapidated bizarre buildings are mixed with various colors, dyeing the whole walled city with a different kind of decadent beauty, and in a trance there is a little similar to the fireworks of the world; and between the neon intertwined, two figures gradually appear from the shadows, and then sneak out of the head, and hide in a remote alley.

"So, do you think I stole your 'Dragon Bone Key' and came to attack me?" Jiang Yao asked as he looked at Lu Xingyue, who was poking his brain out of the alley.

"Yes, only through the 'Dragon Bone Key' can a living person open the 'Space Enchantment' and come to the Netherworld, so seeing another living person appear in addition to me, of course it was a misunderstanding, who knew that you were a special case?" Lu Xingyue replied, and threw Jiang Yao a small brown bottle containing some kind of liquid. "By the way, wipe this thing quickly, it can temporarily cover up your popularity. ”

"What is this?" Jiang Yao unscrewed the bottle, and suddenly an indescribable smell rushed to his nose, and he couldn't help frowning.

"This is a good thing to cover up the smell of corpse oil, and it is sold super expensive in the black market!" Lu Xingyue introduced it seriously, and when Jiang Yao heard the word "corpse oil", he suddenly felt nauseous, and quickly corked the bottle back.

"Oh, don't be clean at this time, okay? You must know that for the existence of the Netherworld, living people are an excellent cultivation tonic, and once your identity is revealed, you will be finished. Lu Xingyue shook her hand and said alarmistly. "Either endure the nausea, or be treated as a plate by others, which do you choose?"

"......" Jiang Yao was speechless, and he couldn't say anything more, so he could only endure his nausea and obediently smear the corpse oil.

"You seem to be familiar with this place...... Jiang Yao muttered as he wiped it. "Speaking of which, you are such a living person, what are you doing in the Netherworld?"

"Do business. Lu Xingyue said casually.

"Do...... Do business?" Jiang Yao looked at the young man in front of him incredulously, and he didn't know where to complain.

"Look, it's rare and weird, right?" Lu Xingyue retracted her gaze and glanced at Jiang Yao with an idiot-like look.

"The world is so big, where there is demand, there is supply, and where there is supply and demand, there is a market, where there is a market, there are merchants, I am the so-called 'merchant of the other world', reselling the treasures of the Three Realms, doing business in the Three Realms, is there any problem?"

"I'm still ...... First time I heard about it. ”

"Tsk, I thought you were different from those ordinary people outside, but you were still a rookie. Lu Xingyue said with disdain. "You don't just know the level of the 'Demon God Mansion' and the 'Spirit Imperial Terrace', right?"

"......" Jiang Yao's face was a little stiff, obviously he was right.

"Hey, okay, okay, for the sake of Uncle Ben and I are the same fallen people as you, I won't charge you for teaching fees, listen carefully. Lu Xingyue held her forehead, looking helpless.

"Although there are a lot of people with abilities who can borrow the power of the demon gods in the 'Spirit Throne', but not all of them are willing to join the 'Spirit Throne', why? Because it's not free! The rules are cumbersome to death, and once you join, you can't retreat, how can you be so free and easy outside the system~ Anyway, you shouldn't be the 'Spirit Divine Envoy', right?"

"No...... I'm not ......."

"That's okay, although the Lingyutai side seems to have the treatment of civil servants, and Bei'er has face, but the factional struggle inside is fierce, you must not think about jumping into this pit. Now many capable people are hidden in the 'underground rivers and lakes', although they are somewhat restricted by basic rules, such as hiding their identities and not shooting at ordinary people, but in general they are still very free~ When we return to the realm, I will help you introduce a stall, and you can make money easily!"

"Oh......" Jiang Yao responded, always feeling that the other party's words were mixed with a lot of water, but now he didn't plan to go into this topic, but led the conversation to another question that he was extremely concerned about. "By the way, since you know so many things, how much do you know about those puppet undead on the edge of Lethe?"

"Puppet undead...... All I know is that it seems to be an alienation of those who lack souls, and I don't know much about it. Lu Xingyue glanced at Jiang Yao and said. "What do you want to know all this for?"

“…… No, it's nothing ......" Jiang Yao lowered his eyes, and when he thought of Xiao Yuan, his heart began to tighten again.

Xiao Yuan...... Lingyutai said that he had re-entered reincarnation, but he ......

Jiang Yao shook his head, he understood that the only way to solve his doubts was to ask Lu Jingyi again, and before that, he had to make sure that he could leave the Netherworld alive.

Jiang Yao suppressed his doubts, looked at Lu Xingyue again, and changed the topic: "By the way, if you come to the Netherworld casually, won't you be arrested by the underworld?"

"That's why I have to prepare 'corpse oil' to cover up my breath, I'm very cautious~" Lu Xingyue shrugged her shoulders and began to lean against the alley and look outside.

"Then since you're here to do business, why are you sneaking here?" Jiang Yao glanced at Lu Xingyue's mysterious appearance, and couldn't help but start complaining.

"Well, it's a long story...... Lu Xingyue laughed dryly and opened the topic. "All in all, we can't expose it right now, and we need to find the keel key as soon as possible. This time, when I came to the Netherworld, I happened to encounter a space storm, and I accidentally lost my precious key, and the place where I lost the key was near the 'Nine Springs Walled City'. Therefore, in addition to hiding from the ghosts, we also came here to find the whereabouts of the Dragon Bone Key, which is the only way for us to return to the Realm. ”

"But the scope is so big, how can I find it......"

Jiang Yao was halfway through his words, and suddenly saw Lu Xingyue vigilantly making a "silence" gesture, he hurriedly followed Lu Xingyue's line of sight, and saw a rickety figure standing gloomily not far from the entrance of the alley, constantly peeping in the direction where the two were.
