322 The Three Realms of Heaven, Earth, and Man

"These strange beasts, even if they die, the corpses are very dangerous, I took them for your own good. Liu Lao Liudao threw the Earth Spirit Small Realm Bead to Xu Mo and said lightly, "In your mortal modern words, it is...... It is possible that they carry some special viruses in their bodies, and if they spread, they are likely to cause serious consequences. ”

Xu Mo raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "Really? Why didn't you say it earlier? That dirty mountain is okay there, right? This monster also bled a lot when it died! By the way, my two pets have bitten it! It won't be dangerous, right?"

Liu Lao Liu said: "Don't worry, I saw it just now, there is nothing wrong with your two pets." ”

"That's good. Xu Mo breathed a sigh of relief, put away the Earth Spirit Bead, looked at the two strange beasts on the ground, one dead and one alive, and said curiously, "These two monsters, what are ......they?" Isn't it the same as the last time I encountered it on White Rock Island in Heavenly Court, and those things also escaped from the spatial rift?"

Liu Lao Liu shook his head and said: "No, these two just ran out of the underworld, and those ...... last time From another more special place. ”

"Difu?" Xu Mo frowned, "So, the spatial crack before was connected to the underworld? No wonder I saw a lot of ghost-like things at that time—those were really 'ghosts', right? They also came from the underworld?"

"Yes. Liu Laoliu nodded and said, "At that time, there was a crack in the isolation barrier between the mortal world and the underworld in that place, and some wandering ghosts and strange beasts near the other side took the opportunity to run over, but fortunately, the location where the crack appeared in the underworld was not dangerous, and there was nothing powerful running over." Otherwise. You can't handle it either. ”

Xu Mo thought for a moment. guessed: "Oh, no wonder you said that the Heavenly Court can't deal with the crack, it's because the crack is from the mortal world and the underworld, and it can't be close to the Heavenly Court, so you can only send me to the mortal world to repair it?"

Liu Lao Liu said: "That's pretty much what it means." ”

Xu Mo looked at the other party suspiciously, and wondered: "Then why doesn't the underworld solve it?"

"Who knows? Maybe it hasn't been discovered yet, or maybe it's been found and it's already being solved, but we can't take any chances. So you still have to try to settle it yourself. ”

"It means that you don't know anything about the situation in the underworld? Why is this happening? Don't you know everything about the situation in the mortal world?"

"That's because Heaven and Earth are not 'adjacent', for example, the three worlds of heaven, earth, and man are like three rooms next to each other, the middle room and the left and right rooms are adjacent and connected, but the rooms at both ends are not next to each other, and if you want to come and go, you must pass through the middle room. ”

"Oh, the room in the middle is equivalent to the mortal world, and the two ends are the heavenly court and the underworld. ”

"Hmm. That's pretty much what it means. In the past, the doors from the middle room to the rooms at both ends were opened and closed at will. But now, the doors on both sides are sealed. However, there is still a glass window on the 'wall' between the heavenly court and the mortal world, so that the heavenly court can see the situation in the mortal world, but it can only see the mortal world, and cannot see the situation of the underworld. ”

"Is there a 'window' on the other side of the underworld where you can see the situation in the mortal world? Why is it that your heavenly court can summon me from the mortal world now, but the underworld has not done so?"

"How do you know that the underworld didn't do it? Maybe somewhere we don't know, the underworld is doing something - of course, maybe it isn't. ”

Xu Mo scratched his head and said strangely: "Isn't the underworld a subordinate department of the Heavenly Court?

Liu Laoliu pouted and said: "Who told you that the underworld is a subordinate department of the heavenly court? It was made up by mortals! The underworld has never been 'subordinated' to the heavenly court, it is a special realm of almost the same magnitude as the heavenly court, and even its 'importance' to the mortal world is even greater than that of the heavenly court, because it is an institution that maintains the reincarnation of mortal beings,"

Xu Mo was surprised: "The underworld and the heavenly court are 'the same level' existences, but I remember that after Sun Wukong made trouble in the underworld in "Journey to the West", didn't the king of Yama go to the heavenly court to sue for help?"

As soon as Xu Mo mentioned Sun Wukong, Liu Lao Liu seemed very unhappy, he glared and said: "Who told you that what is written in "Journey to the West" is all true? It is just a novel written by a mortal who added his own imagination after hearsay! Although some things are true, there are also many fictions! For example, I ...... His Majesty the Jade Emperor of our Heavenly Court is not as useless as written in the novel at all! When that stinky monkey was making trouble in the Heavenly Palace, if it weren't for the fact that the Jade Emperor was in retreat for special reasons, and was just a wisp of distraction in managing the Heavenly Court, how could he allow that stinky monkey to go wild, and he would have been able to capture that splash monkey alone!

Xu Mo looked at Liu Lao Liu a little strangely, and said suspiciously: "Oh, that's the case, the Jade Emperor is so interested?"

Liu Lao Liu snorted coldly: "Nonsense! Otherwise, why do you think he rules the immortals of the Heavenly Court?"

Xu Mo squinted his eyes and said, "Okay, I'll just take what you said is really good, but ...... Why are you so excited?"

Liu Lao Liu said: "Nonsense! I am a staff member of the Heavenly Court, and the Jade Emperor is my immediate boss, of course I will not allow his reputation to be damaged." ”

Xu Mo pursed his lips and said, "Cut! What's the use of you slapping the Jade Emperor's ass like this?

Liu Lao Liu also smiled with humble eyes: "Boy, just saying this to you can be regarded as disrespect to the Jade Emperor, if you really want to be investigated, you can be sentenced to be reincarnated as a pig in the next life, do you believe it or not?"

Xu Mo said in horror: "Damn! No, Sixth Master, don't scare me!"

Liu Lao Liu smiled evilly: "In addition, if you openly sing a song with the words 'step on the sky' in the heavenly court, how do you guess if you want to be punished?"

"I'll go! you know this!" The corners of Xu Mo's mouth twitched a few times, and he pulled out a flattering smile and said, "Hehe, Sixth Master...... Didn't I just make a joke, you just don't hear it, okay? Why don't we talk about it and change the subject...... Anyway, I've done a pretty good job on this mission, right? I've made such a great contribution to Heavenly Court, when will you be able to come down with this reward?"

Liu Laoliu glanced at Xu Mo proudly, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, your benefits are indispensable, the 10,000 spirit stones promised to you will soon be hit in your account, and in addition, the treasures that you will use to complete the task will also belong to you, so it should be regarded as an additional reward." ”

Xu Mo smiled when he heard this, this time Heavenly Court was quite generous, and actually gave him so many benefits at once.

"Okay, it's not too early, what should you do, I'm leaving!"

Just when Xu Mo was secretly happy, he heard Liu Laoliu's words, and when he looked up, he saw that the other party had disappeared, and the two strange beasts on the ground disappeared at the same time.

Well, Xu Mo is used to the other party's elusive way of coming and going, although there are still some questions in his heart that he hasn't asked, but it doesn't matter, anyway, those secrets that sound unclear are not what a small character like himself should care about.

Xu Mo walked into the hut to breathe for a while, and then left the heavenly court, and after returning to the foot of the dirty mountain, he released the car and drove back to the city overnight.
