90.§§090 Doomed
The farther he farther he farthered, the more complicated the road became, and fortunately the old man guided Jiayu to get a glimpse of the full picture of these mechanisms, if he had broken through by himself, he would have been stabbed by the flying swords hidden on both sides of the road or stoned to death in minutes, or he would have been suffocated in the mire hidden under the road.
These mechanisms are full of tricks and complexities, as well as gushing pillars of fire, even if the ancient divine beasts listen to it, if they don't have the guidance of someone who understands the formation, I'm afraid they will have to get either death or injury.
It's shocking to think about it!
"Senior, what mistake did you make that you should be punished at the foot of this Ghost Yin Mountain?"
Hearing him ask, the old man who was originally commanding the crane suddenly quieted down, and not only did he not answer, but he also became motionless like a statue.
“…… It's the juniors who are presumptuous. Jiayu, who has always been good at observing words and feelings, sincerely apologizes.
The old man let out a long sigh and said slowly, "That was more than twenty years ago. Every once in a while, the underworld opens the door to the yang world for the ghosts, allowing the ghosts who have not yet been reincarnated to return to their hometowns to visit their relatives. When the old man returned to his hometown, he found that his descendants had moved away, and the graveyard of his ancestors had become a golden wheat field.
"The old man didn't know the residence of his descendants in the future, and he didn't dare to go to the yang world to find it, for fear of missing the time to close the ghost door, so the old man stayed in the passage connecting the two worlds of yin and yang, waiting for the ghost to close the door and send us back.
"When the ghost door was about to close, a child suddenly ran outside the door, and the old man recognized the child as my great-grandson at a glance, but the ghost door was about to close, and the old man couldn't get out of the passage, but I wanted to see my children and grandchildren too much, so I beckoned the child in."
Spirits are not allowed to lure the living into the underworld, which is the rule of Hades.
Jiayu looked at the old man for a moment, and always felt that these words were quite familiar, and once upon a time, he had heard a similar version from almost anyone's mouth......
The old man smiled bitterly and continued: "It was time to close the ghost gate within a few minutes of the reunion of the old man and his great-grandson, and when the ghost sent me to extradite me, he found that the old man had introduced the living into the underworld and arrested the old man in front of the Hades Palace, and the underworld was also forced to close by the ghost.
"The ghost officials were originally going to sentence the old decay severely, but later found out that my great-grandson did not affect his life because of the old decay's negligence, but only changed his fate slightly, so he sent the old decay lightly, and the Lord of Hades knew that the old man knew some of the five elements, so he assigned me to the foot of the Ghost Yin Mountain to arrange mechanisms for various passages to prevent those evil ghosts from disturbing other places in the underworld."
There is light and shadow, there are dirty places everywhere, and the underworld is no exception, this ghost yin mountain has become a meeting place for these outlaws in hell, although the underworld has this idea to rectify, but the backlog of evil spirits in hell is too much, and it is really powerless, so he assigned the old man to come and lay down the art of Qimen Dunjia, and the evil ghosts inside can't get out, and other ghosts can't get in.
Jiayu kept looking at the old man, taking in the old man's nostalgic gaze. A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and Jiayu asked, "Old man, the child you saw in the wheat field in the past, but the surname is Wu?" ”
Seeing that the old man didn't say anything, Jiayu asked again: "Is it called Wu Xinyi?" ”
Jiayu remembered that when he first met Xinyi, Xinyi told him about the fact that he almost strayed into the underworld when he was a child and couldn't come back, and at that time, Xinyi clearly told him that he had found a door in the wheat field, and she also had a psychic eye after drilling through that door.
This is similar to eating food from the underworld, not everyone will get psychic eyes after touching things in the underworld, only those who are chosen by heaven have this possibility, one in ten thousand people is good, most of them will definitely be infected with yin qi will definitely be haunted by illness, and will become extremely weak from then on.
Xinyi has this talent without going through cultivation, and it can only be said that this is fate.
Thinking of this, Jiayu's heart was a little excited! If the old man in front of him is really Xinyi's maternal great-grandfather, then he is not only his benefactor, but also the old man who has formed a marriage rope for himself. The old man just said that the fate of his children and grandchildren has changed slightly, so does the so-called change refer to the encounter with himself? If she hadn't been given psychic eyes, they would have been strangers to each other.
Jiayu was anxious to verify, but the old man shook his head regretfully: "The old man doesn't know what the child's name is, but if he can still see her, the old man will definitely recognize her." ”
During the conversation, the crane had carried the two of them through the place of many mechanisms, and suddenly opened up in front of them, at this time it was almost dusk, and several rays of sunlight leaked from the clouds, pouring on this Ghost Yin Mountain, and even the mountains were dyed with a layer of red glow, as if they were ignited, and the sun was still like gold blooming with a strong golden brilliance, shining in the valley, the glow was sprinkled on the flowers and vegetation in the valley, gold and red intersected, and it lasted for a long time.
Jia Yu sighed: "I didn't expect such a terrible place to still have such a beautiful view. ”
The old man stroked the crane's feathers and said slowly: "The scenery is the scenery, and it is not terrible. If the most terrible thing in this world is the human heart, there is nothing more terrible than the human heart. ”
Jiayu can't deny it.
But now wasn't the time to argue about that, the sun was setting, and he had to find Xinyi's creature and bring her back before it got dark.
"Although I brought you in, but the Ghost Yin Mountain is so big, where should I find your wife?" The old man asked.
Jiayu held his breath, closed his eyes lightly, let his heart stop like water, and sensed Xinyi's qi.
- No matter where she is, I can find her!
The velocity of the surrounding air suddenly changed, and the old man felt that the breeze seemed to encircle Jiayu, and gradually, Jiayu's breath also turned into wind, and the visual nerves seemed to be connected to the breeze, and the wind was his eyes, taking him to find Xinyi's traces.
The surrounding grass swayed slightly with Jiayu as the center, as if an invisible hand was pushing them, forming waves of grass layer by layer.
Suddenly, Jiayu opened his eyes, designated a direction, and said sonorously: "Over there!" ”
I don't know if it was because of Jiayu's courage or because of something else, the old man couldn't speak for a long time.
Jiayu rode the crane again, and stretched out his right hand to invite him: "Old man, come up quickly!" ”
This old man is likely to be Xinyi's maternal great-grandfather, and he wants them to see each other again no matter what.
The old man's mission was completed, and he wanted to say goodbye to Jiayu here and walk back, but when he met Jiayu's eyes, he forgot to say no.
Those eyes flashed with feelings that he couldn't understand, and inexplicably, evoked the homesickness that he had long forgotten in his heart.
The old man was silently riding on the crane's back, and when he saw that familiar figure, he was shocked and almost fell off the crane's back!
When you are alive, relatives who have never met will naturally not recognize you, but when you die, you become a ghost, and those eyes have the effect of distinguishing blood relationship.
Whether it is one's own relatives or not, you can recognize it at a glance.
"That girl ......," the old man muttered, and then looked at Jiayu, desperately trying to get the truth from Jiayu.
Jiayu couldn't take care of the old man at this time, and when he saw the figure clearly, Jiayu's face was full of surprise and gratitude, and he shouted at the back of the girl who was walking on the land: "Xinyi-!" ”
Xinyi heard someone shouting to her to stop immediately, and then a big crane suddenly fell from the sky in front of her vision, and before the crane could stop, a person jumped on the bird's back, and when Xinyi reacted, her body had been embraced by that person.
"Great, you're okay......"
"You ......"
The other party's actions made Xinyi's mouth open in surprise, although the other party is very good-looking, but he hugged himself like this for no reason, it's a bit too much, right?
Xinyi hurriedly pushed him away and asked angrily, "Who are you?" Do men and women know each other? ”
This time, Jiayu opened his mouth wide: "You ......"
Xinyi took three steps back, folded her hands in a posture of wanting to fight, and looked at him like she was looking at a stranger.
Touched by her expression, Jia Yu only felt a chill snag from his bare feet to his backbone, and his heart felt as if he had been punched hard, making him almost out of breath.
"Xinyi, you...... Is this kidding me? ”
But there was no hint of ridicule in her eyes.
However, when she saw the old man getting off the bird's back, Xinyi first expressed a little shock to the bird as a mount, and when Dingqing looked at the old man again, the defensive meaning in her eyes gradually faded, she slowly approached the old man, and asked softly, "Uh...... You...... It seems to ......"
I always felt that this old man gave her a very cordial feeling. For a while, she forgot the shock brought to her by the crane mount, and tilted her head to look at the old man carefully.
The old man glanced at Xinyi, and then looked at Jiayu, who was injured: "...... She's your wife? ”
"Wife?!" Xinyi jumped up again when she heard this, she covered her mouth, her eyes swept Jiayu's body like a brush, and shouted: "Won't it?" Am I the wife of this handsome guy? ”
"Isn't it?" The old man's suspicious gaze looked back and forth between the two.
"Yes." Jia Yu sighed, and said that he was looking for his wife at the time, but now he didn't bother to correct or explain, "It seems that it was the impact of coming here that caused her to have intermittent amnesia." ”
Jiayu deliberately said "here" instead of "the underworld" directly, for fear of stimulating her again. The old man had already understood this meaning from his words, this girl was his great-grandson, and he naturally would not hurt her.
Xinyi approached Jiayu worriedly, "Am I really your wife?" ”
"Hmm." Jiayu nodded, and slowly stretched out his hand to her, boldly caressing her face after finding that she had not dodged.
Xinyi found that she didn't seem to hate this man's touch at all, on the contrary, she had a feeling of comfort and pleasure. Moreover, when this man showed a sad expression, his heart would also ache......
Maybe it's really his wife? There's no denying that she can't remember a lot of things, including why she's in this valley. So it's not a lie when the other party says that she has intermittent amnesia.
"Is Xinyi your great-grandson?" Jiayu took Xinyi's hand and turned his head to ask the old man.
The old man nodded.
Although Jiayu is in a hurry to take Xinyi back, however, the opportunity is rare, it is better to let their ancestors and grandchildren recognize each other, which should also be the old man's wish all along.
Jiayu was about to introduce the old man to Xinyi, when suddenly the wind howled, and then a behemoth fell from the sky, the strong wind was too strong for the three of them to open their eyes, and when the wind gradually disappeared and saw the face of the person who came, Jiayu's stunned expression instantly froze on his face.
And the old man on the side saw the coming thing, and he had already knelt on the ground.
