230 A prophet in the temple of the earth
It seems that the number of chapters in the first part was wrong, and I skipped fifty chapters directly.
……
The extremely desolate area, without the slightest breath of the living, is entangled by countless vines, like a ruined castle, at a glance only feels lonely and desolate, it is difficult to imagine that this will be one of the holy places inhabited by the seven guardian gods of the underworld.
However, in fact, it is one of the Seven Great Palaces, the Earth Spirit Temple!
For the Seven Great Palaces of the Underworld, Su Bai first knew about the Earth Spirit Palace, and he was also the first to know that there was such an all-knowing and all-powerful character as the owner of the Earth Spirit Palace, and even at that time, he had never even heard of the Seven Great Palaces, and then now, he finally came into contact with the Earth Spirit Hall for the first time in the true sense.
I don't know why, looking at the desolate castle in the distance, Su Bai had a sense of déjà vu in his heart.
Of course, it's not the castle that's familiar, it's the feeling of loneliness.
After getting off the Shuangjiao car, the dark night walked in front to lead the way, and said to Su Bai while pulling out the weeds and walking forward: "Actually, a long time ago, this place was not like this, and it was also a very lively place, but for some reason, people began to gradually stay away from here, lacking vitality and special cleaning, and over time, this place slowly became desolate......
"For some reason...... Is it the owner of the Earth Spirit Temple? Su Bai asked.
Styx nodded and said with a wry smile: "Although Gu Mingdi, the master of the Earth Spirit Hall, is one of the seven guardian spirits of the underworld, she is different from the other six in the hearts of the people of the underworld...... Of course, it's not that everyone hates her, it's just that, as you know, anyone can feel uncomfortable with someone who can read their hearts all the time. You don't have any secrets to speak of in front of her, and the occasional thought that arises may lead to trouble. No one can stand this kind of thing, so compared to the respect for the other six people, everyone is more afraid of Gu Mingdi...... Because of fear, you can only stay away, because you are afraid, you can only stay away, because you dare not face it, you can only stay away. ”
"Stay as far away as you can from the ancient land, this is after hearing her name. A thought that will immediately arise. ”
Speaking of this, Styx shook his head self-deprecatingly, "Actually, not only those people from the underworld who are far away from here, but even many people, including me, dare not approach Gu Ming Land easily, if it weren't for the special situation this time, I'm afraid ...... It's ironic, it's obvious that he has always protected the underworld, but he has always been avoided by everyone. Maybe. It was because of this that Gu Mingdi would not leave the Earth Spirit Hall easily. ”
"It's ironic, indeed." Su Bai nodded in agreement, "However, this can't be helped, is it?" After all, you said it too. Normal people don't want their hearts to be read, since she has such an ability, then naturally she has to bear the corresponding karma, this is the so-called price. ”
Both of them seemed a little heavy and depressed. Of course, it is not possible to come to such a place and feel good.
But. As a girl who has always been optimistic, Styx quickly put aside those unpleasant things and said with a smile, "Forget it, let's not talk about this, let's go to the Earth Spirit Hall quickly...... Well, until then...... Aya! Aya! Aya! ”
Suddenly, Styx put his hands to his mouth and clenched them in an O-shape, calling out loudly.
"What is this for?" Su Bai suddenly felt puzzled.
You're not Luo Tianyi, can you still call Aya out?
Then before the dark night could answer, there was a sudden sound of snooping in the grass opposite, Su Bai instinctively looked down, only to see a black two-tailed kitten coming out of the grass, poking his head out, looking at the two of them with dripping eyes, looking very bold and not afraid of life at all.
"Great." Seeing this kitten, Styx immediately squatted down and picked it up, and said with a smile, "Although I knew that there was a way, I always thought it wouldn't go well, but I didn't expect you to come so soon, thank you, Aya." ”
"Meow." The little black cat stretched out its paws and scratched its face, very naughty and cute.
"It's Aya?" Su Bai asked stunned.
"Hmm." Styx nodded, "It's a flame cat, a pet of the Ancient Lands." The Flame Cat is a unique cat breed in the underworld, although it can't speak, but it is born to communicate with corpse spirits, as long as they appear somewhere, someone will die somewhere, even in the underworld, the Flame Cat is also a representative of bad luck. ”
"And you're calling it out?" Su Bai pointed to the black cat and asked in surprise.
"Meow!" The black cat's two big eyes immediately glared at Su Bai, and he seemed to be a little angry.
"Because it's cute." Styx pouted and said disapprovingly, "The flame cats only go to places where there are deaths because they want to communicate with the dead, although it represents bad luck, but that doesn't mean that they invite death, in my opinion, this is completely misleading." And most importantly, Aya is special, and only it can bring us to the Earth Spirit Hall safe and sound. ”
"What do you say?"
"Aya, please lead the way in front, we are going to visit your master." Styx didn't answer, but put the black cat back in his hand, and then the black cat meowed softly, and immediately got into the grass, but in an instant it came out again, beckoned to the two, and drilled back.
Even if Su Bai can't communicate with the cat, he can understand what the black cat wants to express, and it is clear that the two of them want to follow it.
Styx followed first, and explained to Su Bai as he walked: "Although Gu Mingdi's ability is feared by most of the people in the underworld and respects her, the animals in the underworld like her very much, because the animals can't speak, only Gu Mingdi can know what they are thinking, so although the people in the underworld are far away from the Earth Spirit Temple, the animals like to stay here, so all the animals here are Gu Mingdi's pets." ”
"Then, if there are many animals, it will naturally be more troublesome to manage, after all, even if it is Gu Mingdi, it is impossible to find time to manage these small animals every day, and it is natural that some leaders are needed, and Aya is one of the leaders. On the other hand, these animals are very spiritual, and they know that the former inhabitants of this place have left because they are afraid of the power of the Ancient Ming Land, and they think that those people have abandoned the Ancient Ming Land, so in order to repay the favor, they have placed many traps around the Earth Spirit Temple. Prevent the people of the underworld from stepping here...... Although these traps are not very powerful, they can be very troublesome if hit, and with Aya, we can avoid them without being attacked by the animals. ”
"I see." Su Bai suddenly quietly realized, it seems that the matter of the Earth Spirit Hall is much more complicated than he imagined.
Then, as Styx said, under the guidance of the flame cat Aya, except for feeling some sight from time to time. The two of them encountered no accidents along the way, and soon came to the front of the ancient castle.
"Meow." The Flame Cat, having completed its mission, barked at the Night, and then ran away happily.
"Goodbye, Aya." Styx waved her hand at the flame cat, and only after the other party's figure was completely gone, did she turn around, first said a few words to Su Bai, and then gently knocked on the door of the ancient castle.
It took less than half a minute. The gate of the castle slowly opened, and a girl with shoulder-length short hair appeared in front of the two of them, looking at the dark night and smiling, "Is it a little princess?" The host has been waiting for a long time. ”
"It's me. Does the Gu Ming Digong Master know that I am coming? Styx nodded, and asked strangely.
The girl smiled: "Of course, the master knows everything. ”
"In that case, it would be better, could you please take us to her?"
"Please." The girl leaned over slightly. Reach out and make a gesture to enter.
After the two entered, the girl casually closed the door again, and then walked in front to lead the way for the two.
Su Bai observed the girl from behind. I found that the other party's steps were very light, there was basically no sound, and even her body was fluttering, as if only a breeze could blow her away.
"Isn't she the master of the Earth Spirit Temple? How does she look like a seriously ill girl? Su Bai asked in a low voice towards the night.
"Shh Styx immediately made a forbidden gesture to him, and then whispered, "She is the maid of Gu Ming Land, called Pity, because no one wants to approach Gu Ming Land, so she is also the only underworld person in the Earth Spirit Hall except for Gu Ming Land, in terms of status, she is the same as Fei Te and Bai Yulou Mengmeng in the Sixth District of the Stars, and they are all people who can speak on behalf of the masters of the Seven Great Palaces." ”
"She doesn't look that great, though." Su Bai muttered in a low voice.
"Hehe, of course, because I'm not from the combat department." Ahead, the girl turned around and said with a smile.
"Ugh!" Su Bai was suddenly embarrassed, he didn't expect to be heard so quietly.
At the same time, Styx also gave him a roll of the eye and said, "Although Miss Mercy does not have outstanding combat and management skills like Fett and Mengmeng, her ability is also unique in the underworld. ”
"What ability?" Su Bai asked curiously.
"See the future."
"What?"
"Stupid, see the future!" Styx glared at him, "Miss Mercy has the ability to see the future and can see everyone's future, so although she is not a combat department, in some ways, she is far more powerful than the combat department, and she is the only prophet in the underworld." ”
"This ......" Hearing this, Su Bai was really stunned, the only two people in the Earth Spirit Palace, one is omniscient and the other is a prophet, are they all monsters?
"Hehe, in fact, it's not as powerful as the little princess said, I can only see a little bit of the future, the prophet is too exaggerated." The Prophet smiled slightly, and then said as if laughing at himself, "Moreover, as the saying goes, it is easy to know the sky, but it is difficult to go against the sky, no matter how much I see, it will not help me in the future, in fact, as far as I am concerned, I would rather not have such ability." ”
I don't know if it's not a good idea, when the prophet said the six words of knowing the heavens and reversing the heavens, Su Bai found that her eyes flashed over her.
Prophetic mercy!
Don't...... She already sees my future? (To be continued......)
