Chapter 79: Breaking into the Underworld
This kid seems to be going out? Can the gates of the city of the dead be opened from within?
As soon as this thought appeared, Mo Kongjing was determined to follow him all the time, this strange place really made people unable to stay for a moment!
Xiu Ze turned his head expressionlessly, looked at the figure floating in the air and said coldly, "What are you doing with me?" ”
Raising his head sincerely, Mo Kongjing looked at the child in front of him sincerely, "There are only you and me here, where else can I go if I don't follow you." ”
As soon as the words fell, the wind and clouds between heaven and earth suddenly changed, and there were bursts of trembling from the earth, and a force so powerful that no one could resist came from afar, and ripples spread out, and the power that made all the ghosts and gods fear suddenly became silent. It was as if the shaking that had made the earth tremble not long ago was just an illusion.
Looking back into the distance in disbelief, Xiu Ze was surprised: "Someone actually broke into the underworld? ”
Mo Kongjing was stunned, and only then did he come back to his senses from the shock just now. Break into the underworld? Who is so powerful, even the underworld dares to break in!
Sighing lightly, Xiu Ze continued to take steps without looking back and continued to walk towards the city gate.
Seeing that the little figure began to walk towards the city gate casually again, Mo Kongjing immediately floated over and asked, "Eh! Wait for me! What does it mean to break into the underworld? Can the living still come to the underworld? ”
The black gorgeous brocade robe was put on Xiu Ze's body, and his face was calm and completely inconsistent with his appearance and age, "Under normal circumstances, only dead people can enter the underworld, but because the underworld has a special existence, it is not too unusual for the living to break in." ”
Can a living person go to the underworld? Mo Kongjing blinked his eyes, and persevered to catch up with him: "What special existence?" And why do the living break into the underworld? ”
Xiu Ze's expression was very calm, his steps were very slow, although he never stopped, but the speed seemed to be deliberately slowed down. "The door, the two gates of the underworld. The first gate is the Yin Gate, that is, the reincarnation gate that the underworld opens all year round, which guides the wandering spirits of the mortal world to cross the Nai He Bridge and drink Meng Po soup to enter the reincarnation platform and reincarnate as a human. ”
There is a deathly silence in the huge city of vain death, and the ghosts walk at night on weekdays, but the evil ghost carnival is extraordinarily calm today. It's so calm that you can hear the slightest sound. Only those who have seen the creatures of the real dead city will understand how terrifying the original appearance of this dead and silent city is at this moment.
The footsteps were still very slow, and Xiu Ze's voice was also very flat, a bland and dead silence that did not match his age, "The second gate is the Yang Gate, that is, the door that the living can open." The Yang Gate will not be opened easily, and its opening conditions are also very harsh, but it is also the only way for the living to enter the underworld. Normally, people who open the Yang Gate and enter the underworld want to find the soul of their loved one and bring it back to the Yang Realm. ”
Mo Kongjing nodded, hesitated for a while, but couldn't help but ask his doubts: "Why do you want to bring your soul back to the yang world?" The yang energy in the yang world is so heavy, even if you forcibly bring the soul back, it will do a lot of harm and no benefit. ”
Xiu Ze's footsteps stopped, because it was behind him, so Mo Kongjing couldn't see his expression clearly. After a moment, his footsteps were raised again, and he asked, "Do you know what a city of death is?" ”
Honestly floating to his side, Mo Kongjing shook his head sincerely.
Xiu Ze explained: "Every ghost in the city of vain death is unfinished, that is, he died in vain, and many of them even can't even find out the cause of death. Because they have all died by unwarranted disasters, their resentment is so angry that no one knows what will happen if they are allowed to cause trouble in the sun. However, even if the resentful ghost is taken to the underworld, it will not be able to reincarnate because its resentment is too deep. In other words, they do not belong to the mortal world of the yang world, nor do they belong to the underworld, and over time, the city of vain death appeared. In the deepest part of the underworld, scene after scene of the jungle is staged. This is the real Hyakki Night Walk. ”
He turned his head sideways to stare at the city, a dead city that had not seen the moonlight all year round, and everything here seemed to be dead silent for as long as he could remember. Too much strife, devouring, and conspiracy are all played out here.
Xiu Ze lowered his eyes, turned his head sideways to look at the translucent soul and explained: "As long as the yang life is not exhausted and the body is intact, if the soul can be found in the underworld within seven days, it is not impossible to restore the dead to yang." ”
Return the yang!
Mo Kongjing's eyes shone brightly, but before she could speak, the words of the person in front of her broke all her illusions: "Sounds simple, doesn't it?" But do you know how many people die in a day? Do you know how many ghosts there are in the underworld? How difficult it is to find a soul in the vast underworld, not to mention that the Yangmen is not only for the living to enter, but also for those who have committed heinous sins to come to the underworld from the Yangmen after death."
His heart was completely cool, Mo Kongjing shook his head with a wry smile, yes, in such a big place as the underworld, it is not easy to find a soul within seven days. And she looked at the young man beside her with puzzled eyes, she didn't ignore the fact that the Yang Gate he said was the door that the person who had committed a heinous crime had only left after his death.
In the face of her doubts, Xiu Ze gently hooked the corners of his mouth, and took another step forward slowly. The moment he passed by her again, he explained in an extremely weak voice, but in exchange for Mo Kongjing's sharply constricted pupils.
"Walking in from the Yang Gate, the first stop is, the eighteenth layer of hell."
Doesn't this indirectly stifle the thoughts of other ghosts who want to return to the yang, and if they want to get out of the underworld, there are countless ghosts in the yin gate who can't escape at all. And Yangmen is the eighteenth layer of hell, no matter what aspect you want to escape, it is impossible. Mo Kongjing sighed helplessly, looked at the dead silence around her, and she reluctantly floated over to follow the little figure. Come on, she still wants to get out, and now she can't even get out of the dead city!
"Hey, why did you suddenly go so fast! Wait for me! ”
"Why are you following me?"
"Where did you come from so much, why do you want to follow me, I said, what's your name?"
"Xiuze"
"Hey, Xiu Ze, my name is Mo Kongjing, I'll ask you in the future!"
"Please?"
Seeing the doubts on the face of the bun, Mo Kongjing wanted to go up and pull it, but because of her current state, she didn't say that her claws were stretched out. Looking at the bun face, she tilted her head and smiled: "Because you know so much, I have only been here for a short time, so please take care of me in the future." ”
