Chapter Ninety-Five: The Netherworld
The cold ice man stepped into the circle with the bellflower. As soon as I entered, it was as if I was in a long tunnel of different dimensions. The body took off, uncontrolled, and flew forward quickly. The two sides were stretched on the tunnel and flashed quickly, as if it was the scene of the underworld, but it was too fast to see. Then there was a light in front of him, which stabbed the cold man and couldn't open his eyes.
I don't know when, there is no longer the sound of the swift wind in my ears. The ice man's body as a ghost gradually fell. A pleasant and crisp bird song accompanied by a melodious piano sound came to his ears, purifying his whole soul.
The cold man opened his eyes in confusion, and a pink flower crossed in front of his eyes, swirling in the breeze and falling in the air. The cold man stretched out his hand, and the flower fell straight through his palm to the ground.
Kikyo's silver bell-like laughter came, and the cold man came back to his senses. But I was shocked by the scenery in front of me and couldn't come back to my senses for a long time.
Legend has it that the Netherworld is dark, and the wasteland is full of vegetation. The river of blood flows for a long time, and the white bones pave the way. But in front of me, there are green and flowers. Like a fairy streamer, the river is vast and colorful. No matter how you look at it, it is picturesque, and the beauty is not like the world.
Kikyo stopped laughing, leaned over to pick up the flowers on the ground and touched them pityingly, looking at the sluggish appearance of the cold ice man, he sighed: "I can't think of it!" You seem aloof and unapproachable. I didn't expect to be a person who knows how to pity. Hey. Well, our Netherworld isn't that scary! Isn't Beauty stunned? ”
The cold man was silent, standing in the breeze with a little sadness, staring at him. Butterflies fluttering. The sound of the piano is melodious and graceful, but it is sad. Every tone of the pitch stirred the emotion in his heart.
"Who's playing the flute, why is it so sad?"
Kikyo was stunned and stretched out his ears.
"Oh, it's my master, and since I was formed, he has gone to play the harp under the magnolia tree next to the side hall whenever he has time. But no one knows why, and when asked about it, the master always has a sad face. Over time, no one asked. We're all used to it, too. Well, it's not too early. It's time for the master to go to the study in the side hall, and I'll take you to see him. Let's go! ”
------------------
"What!"
Shangguan Mo looked at the little demon in shock, looking nervous.
"Is everything you say true? But why did he go to the netherworld? ”
"Lord Shangguan Mo, don't you know? I heard that there is an escape dust in the netherworld, and his medical skills are superb. Your father-in-law may have gone to invite him, and I also heard the red-clothed sister say that the void is unconscious, and she is the only one left in the whole family or something. Anyway, I think your father-in-law probably went there to heal your face. ”
A hint of joy flashed on Shangguan Mo's face, but he suddenly became stern again.
"Little demon, don't talk nonsense. He's not my father-in-law. As for what you're talking about, I'll find out. Look at the days when I was away, what really happened? ”
The ice man followed the little demon who was bouncing all the way, through clear streams and colorful flowers. Through the puffs of smoke, a majestic palace appeared in front of me. On the plaque of the gate above the stairs are three big characters that are majestic and flowing like clouds: Netherworld Palace.
Across a wide and clear river, the cold man looked up. It's like an immortal city.
"Hey! I'm back! ”
With an excited face, Kikyo ran to the white arched bridge made of white marble, and greeted the two big men guarding the door warmly. The cold man then floated over, and the two guards were under the seven-inch tongue of the bellflower, but they did not stop him when they saw him.
The road was unimpeded, and the cold ice man was tossing and turning in the palace with the bellflower.
The palace is very gorgeous, with light gauze and long curtains in the corridors, carved beams and painted buildings. Outside the house, it is also full of spring colors, clear water and flowers, and warblers cry willows. From time to time, a passing demon would secretly stare at the cold ice man, and then turn around and talk with his companions with a shy face. A few bold people will come over to tease Kikyo, but they are all sent away by Kikyo.
However, the cold man did not notice the anomaly caused by his arrival, but carefully observed the information in the palace that might help him.
Kikyo turned to look at the cold man with a worried face and sighed helplessly: You will find trouble for me!
Looking at the little demon playing in the garden and taking care of the flowers and plants, the cold ice man was relieved. The servants of this family are all so carefree and harmonious, presumably the owner of this palace must be an elegant person. I only hope that after hearing his request, he can help.
Turning a courtyard, Kikyo stopped. hurriedly reached out to pull the cold ice man who was still floating forward, but grabbed a hand empty. The cold ice man was strange for a while, looked at his flustered little palm, and stopped.
"What's wrong? Kikyo Stem. ”
"Shh~~" Kikyo looked nervous and looked at the courtyard.
"Whisper, the master is inside. This time I ran out secretly, you stay here first, I'll go in and beg for mercy first, remember, don't run around. ”
After the bellflower finished speaking, he ran into the yard as soon as he slipped through the smoke. Only then did Han Bingnan realize that this side hall was much simpler than the palace he had seen before.
Simple house with no frills. The yard is clean and tidy, there are no deliberately planted flowers and plants, and there is only an ancient magnolia that seems to have lived for more than 1,000 years on the edge of a clear and mirror-like pool. A qiē is beautiful in nature, and beautiful in the heart.
The cold ice man exclaimed, the Netherworld can be so beautiful and fascinating, is this still the Netherworld?
Suddenly, a jade-pure flower on the ancient magnolia tree fell and landed on the guqin on the stone table under the tree. played a pleasant note, and the cold man was stunned. This scene is familiar.
"That..." The cold man turned around, and Kikyo walked over with a squirming look on his face. watched him smile helplessly, but the smile was more ugly than crying. The cold man was stunned.
"What's wrong?"
"That, master, master, he's angry. You, let's go! ”
The cold man was stunned for a moment, and his body shook. He finally came to the Netherworld in order to see Yichen and ask him to go out and heal Shangguan Mo and the Void. However, now, Yichen is close at hand, and he has not met him, but let him leave. How could he be willing.
"No, I want to see him, or I won't leave."
The cold man said that, and floated towards the house excitedly. Kikyo was anxious to stop it, but she couldn't stop the cold man who had become a ghost. Seeing that the cold ice man had already floated into the house, even if she came up with a solution at this moment, it was too late.
"Oops! Kill me, I knew I wouldn't have brought you here! Kikyo stomped his feet angrily, so he could only hurry into the house to avoid the cold man offending his master.
Once inside, a gauze barrier divides the room in two. The cold man looked at the figure of a man sitting at the table behind the barrier, his movements were gentle and elegant, and his manners were extraordinary. I didn't step forward again, I'm afraid I would be offended.
Kikyo rushed into the house and saw that the cold ice man was looking at his master and just stood quietly and relaxed. Got on his knees.
Yichen stopped the movement of his hand and looked here, as if he was looking at the cold ice man. Kikyo lowered his head nervously, and his side face signaled to the cold man not to be rude.
The cold man glanced at Kikyo, his eyes full of eagerness. Half-kneeling and bowing his head: "In the lower imperial shadow, I came here to ask for something this time, and I hope that the palace master can help." ”
Kikyo nervously shrank his head and peeked at Yichen, but Yichen just looked at the cold man quietly and didn't react. Seeing this, the cold man knelt on the ground on his knees, and buried his head lower.
"Please! If you refuse to do so, there will be no one in the world who can heal them. ”
The cold ice man closed his eyes, and the bellflower looked nervously at the cold ice man and then at Yichen, and the atmosphere was tense and tightly tugged at the heartstrings of the cold ice man.
After a long time, a soft sigh came from behind the barrier, and the cold man opened his eyes. Yichen's soft voice was like a cold blade, severing his tense nerves.
"Tell me, Mikage, why should I help you?"
The cold ice man was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer. Kikyo looked at the cold ice man with a worried face, and looked at Yichen pitifully with his mouth like a beanie, pleading for the cold ice man.
"Master, you can help him! He's not a bad guy, and even more so Silent isn't a bad guy either. You also know that demons are rampant these days, killing everywhere, and there are countless unjust souls. Silently, in order to save people, he was scratched by a monster and his face was disfigured. And the little brother of the void was also killed by the traitor and fell unconscious. Even if you don't think about them, you have to think about the people of the world! If they weren't there, the human world would have been ruined, and the person you were looking for might never be found again. Master, you have to think twice! Master..."
"Kikyo. Thank you for interceding for me. Kikyo looked at the cold man in a daze, not knowing what he was going to do.
The cold ice man raised his head and looked at Yichen firmly.
"Palace Master, I want you to help me. It's not because of the world. It's for my two most important people. ”
As soon as these words came out, the bellflower was immediately thundered, and he exploded angrily.
"What are you talking about! Do you know what you're doing right now! Fool! I'm almost convinced of my master, why are you interjecting! I'm almost by you,! Don't you want to save them? ”
Kikyo angrily scratched at the cold man's body and sat on the ground speechlessly. The cold man smiled bitterly.
"They are the most important people in my life, and of course I want to save. Just, I know. No matter how much I ask, you won't get out of the netherworld, will you, do you? ”
