20. The underworld
"Welcome to the Netherworld (Chapter 20 of the Legend of the World)!"
When Li Qi pushed open the huge door, suddenly there was a strange sound coming from the door, as if two men were pinching their throats and talking? When his eyes adjusted to the light, Li Qi found that it was two men dressed in pitch black and one dressed in white, who were wearing high hats, and they were the legendary black and white impermanence.

Li Qi chuckled and thought, "These two people are really like they are nervous after day and night separation!" β
This is a hall made of a huge snake skeleton, it is impossible to see the edge at a glance, under the belly of the snake bone, the deep snake skeleton seems to have no border, Li Qi only then felt his insignificance, this is the legendary snake bone spirit hall of the ghost domain, in the middle of the spirit hall, all the ghost officials of the ghost domain are offered to the above, sucking the incense brought from the five domains, this is a world created by the creation god of the ghost domain with the detached body, this snake bone has eight tails, and they lead to the eight famous tombs in the world, Here live the eight landlords of the Ghost Domain, and now they are gathered on the huge table of the Snake Bone Spirit Hall, and behind them are many ghost officials under their leadership, their long hair splits their faces, and the black big coat they are wearing can barely see the original appearance.
Seeing Li Qi, everyone stood up cheering, with a look of admiration and surprise on their faces, which really made Li Qi more excited in fear. "This is ......"
"Netherworld." Black and white impermanence said again, "That is, the Ghost Domain." β
"Then I'm ......"
"Congratulations on becoming a ghost corpse officer...... I saw a dozen or so strange people at the table stand up in unison, and said collectively with solemn expressions. As soon as the words fell, Li Qi found that his body emitted a dazzling light, only to feel that his whole body was very itchy, itching almost like the skin was peeled off, Li Qi was very sad, kept twisting his body, and then the top of his head was itching, Li Qi scratched it with his hand, and his hair seemed to be parted on the top of his head, and the body that did not belong to him was like a snake skin and faded off little by little, showing that the body came out, and finally it was the feet, when the whole skin fell, Li Qi's whole body was loosened, as if he had unloaded the burden of thousands of catties, and at this time, The light also disappeared with the peeling off of the dead skin, however, the people at the scene actually showed an embarrassed look, they seemed to want to see themselves, but they didn't know what was in the way, they actually glanced at it with slanted eyes, but there were some of them bold, showing a weird smile, and praised: "I have never seen such a beautiful scenery......"
"What's going on? Am I ugly? Turned into a monster? Li Qi Daqi, looked down, but saw that he was naked, naked, but this body is enchanting and colorful, with a thin water snake waist, **, jade-like skin, this is obviously a grown body, it looks so exciting, even better than the figure of the eighteen naked women in the flower street, and even more than before death, Li Qi was so excited that he didn't know what to do, and he forgot the strange expressions of everyone, and shouted: "I finally grew up, I finally grew up......"
At this time, a woman ran over from a long distance, holding a blue cloak, and couldn't help but cover Li Qi, the man in front of the table couldn't help but sigh, and one of them actually said regretfully: "Oh, Luo Luo, why are you dressing Li Qi?" Wouldn't it look good if I didn't wear it all the time? β
Li Qi only then found out that he was naked and was all looked at by this group of dead men, Li Qi grew his mouth and stood there embarrassed, eager to find a crack in the ground to get into, never come out (Chapter 20 of the Legend of the World).
"The ghost corpse officials in the local region have rarely had women since ancient times." When one of them lifted his cloak, the others lifted their cloaks as well, and surrounded by silver light, these legendary yakshasas took on a new attitude, and although their hair was still draped without exception, they had become indistinguishable from humans. The first person to lift the cloak is called Chun Yucheng, he looks like he is in his 60s when he becomes a new posture, but Li Qi always feels that he is not so old, he has a very old sword hanging from his waist, and the word win is engraved on the scabbard, this person is a good person, Li Qi can see that he is deliberately tearing away the topic and diverting the attention of these womanizers, so that Li Qi, who is standing stupidly, will not be ashamed, I don't know why, he doesn't seem to be interested in women, maybe it's because he is old and has experienced a lot of things.
"But it's not ordinary, you can come out of Kunmen, there has never been one in the ghost domain," the one who spoke was the one who just laughed at Li Qi, his name was Zhong Li, he was in charge of the book of life and death in the ghost domain, and he was the one who stored the information of all living beings from ancient times to the present, I saw him stand up and walk to Li Qi's side, and he suddenly said with a straight face: "Li Qi, do you know?" Kun Palace is the door of death, it can make everyone fall into the illusion of the earth, fire and hell ditch, since ancient times, there is only one way to die......"
Just like the Rubik's Cube Domain, they are also like the Demon Lord, controlling the eight major exits of the Ghost Domain, that is, the Nine Palace Bagua Ghost Gate Pass that Li Qi just passed, the Kangong Xiumen controlled by the newly appointed Diqi, the Qiangong Gate controlled by the second-in-command of the Ghost Domain, and the Gen Gongshengmen controlled by the Great Si Ming Jealousy, these three auspicious gates are usually easy for the newly promoted ghost officials to pass through, and the blood is sorrowful to control the Kun Palace Death Gate, and when Li Qi, as the first person in the ages, came in from the Kun Palace, Even the blood sorrow, which is extremely difficult to speak, really jumped.
When Li Qi heard this, his whole body trembled, and he felt lonely after the experience just now, if it weren't for the appearance of the night, he would have fallen into that darkness a long time ago, at this time, Li Qi's heart moved, and said: "Didn't you say that you can realize a wish after becoming a ghost official?" β
"Exactly!" The one who spoke was actually bloody and sorrowful, since he saw Li Qi walk into this door, the original violent feeling disappeared, but he was the only one who didn't lift his cloak, no matter what he said, he always made people feel eerie.
"I want to ...... Look at my book of life and death, I want to change the name on it to the name of my biological father to the ...... of the night" This is the promise that Li Qi gave to the night before leaving, and now that she has successfully completed the small night sacrifice, Li Qi is already calm in her heart, and now she wants to go back in a dignified manner, and call Ye Ye "Dad" in a dignified manner.
However, at this time, there was a sudden silence in the ghost hall, and Li Qi saw that the expressions on their faces instantly became solemn.
"Heh......" Zhongli laughed loudly, as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world, "You fool, you said you were going to change your biological father's name to Night?!" β
"Yes!" Li Qi said categorically, Zhong Li's reaction made her have a bad premonition, as if this could not be changed.
"Then you don't have to change it at all!" Zhong Lijie said with a smile.
"Why!" Li Qi's heart sank, and he asked puzzled.
"Because your biological father was originally - night!" Zhong Li said with a straight face.
"You lied to me!" Li abandoned her brain, this answer, she never thought of it, the night is her father!? Impossible.
"Don't you believe it?" Zhong Li said and took out a mirror, and the shadow of an old ghost suddenly appeared in it, Li Qi looked at it, but found that it was actually himself in front of him.
"Why, how can this be the case when I carved out of a mold of living and night?" Li Qi was shocked, he always felt a little similar to the night when he was a child, but he was by no means as similar as today, but he was more beautiful than the night, his eyebrows were thinner, his eyes were bigger, his eyelashes were much longer, and he was curly, this look is very good-looking, even if he is still a ghost now, his face is bloodless, and his lips are purple, but it has a different taste, and his figure has returned to his previous slender appearance, Li Qi is very excited, and he can't wait to look at himself a few more times.
"Because you were originally the daughter of the night." As soon as the words fell, Li Qi saw himself in the mirror gradually fade, and saw the curvaceous city, which was Li Qi's biological mother, everything appeared in the mirror like going back in time, and saw the immortal of the emperor's family who was pregnant with gods, saw the bloody curvaceous city next to the big chun tree, and saw himself buried in the loess.
"Am I not dead?"
"Dead?" Zhong Lijie suddenly laughed, "You think you should be viviparous?" β
"Isn't it?" Li Qi was a little blindsided.
"Fool!" Zhong Li laughed, "The deity of the night is a snake, no matter what your mother is, of course the snake is oviparous and not viviparous. β
"That is, I was supposed to be born out of an egg?" Li Qi couldn't cry or laugh when he heard it.
Zhong Li smirked, "You obviously came naturally, even if your mother dies first, it won't affect your hatching and growth, because you are originally a snake!" β
Li Qi snorted, "That is, I should have come out of the soil." β
"Yes, just like a snake, it hatched in the warm soil, and after an unknown number of years, it broke through the soil, and then a strong wind brought it to Zhangdong Town, and then you will know what happened later."
Li Qi suddenly, it turned out that, as Shao Siming said, he was really Ye's biological daughter. "Impossible, impossible, the old ghost said that he could not have children, and he said that God would not have children."
"Idiot, do you know that there is such a thing as being pregnant in the world, you are indeed the daughter of the night, even if the night and the city have no intersection, you are still the daughter of the night!" Zhong Libo said with a smile.
"Is this true? I really heard you right! β
"Look, it's written." Zhong Li handed over Li Qi's roster, which was closely connected with Li Qi's name, it turned out that this was the legendary bloodline, which could never be separated.
"I ......" Li Qi cried, how many years, this is what he dreams of the most. She just wanted to rush back at this time, and rushed to the side of the night, only to see Li Qi quickly turn his head, excitedly pointed to the Kunmen when he came, and said, "You can go back to this road......"
As he spoke, Li Qi easily pushed open the Kun Gate, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. However, Li Qi's simple actions shocked the people present, only to see Zhong Li refute and ask: "Is it possible to walk backwards in this Kunmen when you see blood and sorrow?" β
"No one has walked by, and no one has tried, anyway, the door of my Kun Palace will always be open to Li Qi in the future." Seeing the sorrow, he said with something in his words.
"Alas...... What can I do if I go up, I'm afraid I'll never see it......" Chun Yucheng sighed and said suddenly.
Li Qi ran wildly on the road of the Huangquan Wine Country, she seemed to throw herself into the arms of the old ghost, and called him a few times to her father, or she would cry excitedly, Li Qi imagined the expression of the old ghost, this man who was paralyzed all day long, and would occasionally laugh will also cry, what is the old ghost crying like, Li Qi almost laughed when he thought about it, the Huangquan Wine Country is near, it is close again, there is her favorite father there, and there is her warmest home.
In the deepest part of the alley, the wine flag of the Huangquan Wine Country should have stood there fluttering in the wind, however, everything was no longer there, it was empty, and only a huge pit was left on the original site of the Huangquan Wine Country, Li Qi knew that it was the mark left by the demon who fell into the sky, and the crowd of onlookers around him talked about the terrifying scene of the explosion just now from time to time, Li Qi's heart sank, first thinking that she was not going the wrong way, and then she remembered a lot of words in the night-
"Fool, who will protect you when I die."
"I can't protect you for the rest of your life!"
"I'm going to die soon, and I don't want to hurt herβ"
β¦β¦
It turned out that the old ghost had already told herself, why she had never doubted it, every word she said in the night now appeared repeatedly in Li Qi's mind, she constantly remembered the white hair on the night's head, remembered the aging of the night, remembered the eyes of the night when she looked at herself, remembered what she said to herself last night, she cursed herself for being too stupid, she was the number one fool in the world, the old ghost was really old, he was going to die, and he didn't know it at all! But isn't God immortal?
The heart is still broken, it seems that the whole world is dead, Li Qi wants to cry, but he can't cry, his heart hurts so much that he almost suffocates, Li Qi's throat seems to be dumb, and there is a weird gurgling sound in his abdomen, Li Qi wants to cry out his pain and shout out, but there is no way at all.
"I haven't called you yet?
I haven't called you in my life, at least can't I wait until you hear it?
I'm your daughter, I'm really your daughter......"
The night of the Little Night Festival turned out to be the last time Li Qi and Ye met, so let your memory stay on this day forever, nothing happened after that, everything was good, because from beginning to end, I grew up in this ordinary family, with a father and a mother, carefree, and never abandoned.
The former Huangquan Wine Country was reshaped in Li Qi's fantasy, growing and building in the ruins, and then I heard the noise of the Huangquan Wine Country, and saw the busy figure of Yueniang, and I was nesting in the arms of the old ghost looking at my beautiful home with peace of mind-
The rain fell tricklingly, splashing the already gray and black soil of the Huangquan Wine Country, and the rain gradually accumulated in the huge deep pit, submerging the sand and gravel on the soil, drowning the traces of the Huangquan Wine Country, little by little, drop by drop, by puff, piece by piece, but all this Li Qi was unaware, she leaned tightly against the soil of the cold and damp pit, as if she was still hiding in the cold embrace of the night.
After that, Li Qi's soul was lost, and she never cried or laughed since then, but she never mentioned the night, and she didn't even think about it, as if the death of the night had nothing to do with her.
