Chapter 20: The Spirit of the Lethe River (Part II)
On the top of Wu Mountain, on the edge of the cliff, Zi Xuan was still meditating with her eyes closed, surrounded by a layer of purple fairy qi, this smoke and fog gas, only circled around her nostalgically a few times, and then flew mercilessly towards the enchantment where Qin Lie's body was located.
As soon as it was touched, it disappeared without a trace, Zixuan's complexion had gradually become pale, more and more white and close to blue-white, and finally she couldn't hold it anymore, the peony flower mark on her forehead flashed a few times, and the rich purple color also dimmed, but the kung fu of a cup of tea was close to black.
Zi Xuan spurted out a mouthful of blood, her body fell crookedly, and she could no longer continue her mana to maintain the guardian enchantment, so she had to stop. His heart was beating very hard, and when he looked at Qin Lie's body again, he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Zi Xuan got up in a hurry, but she fell weakly, she had really been in the world for a long time, and even her mana was weak.
"Qin Lie!" The law realm where the corpse was located was also gone, Zi Xuan saw that at the bottom of the cliff, there were waves of red halos, constantly rising, she concentrated and calmed, and a layer of purple qi on her body went straight away, temporarily sealing the continuous leakage of red light. Zi Xuan subconsciously looked around, but did not find the ironclad guards who followed her.
She breathed a sigh of relief, and a small lilac flower turned out between her right hand, and the flower first shook at Zixuan in mid-air, and then threw itself into the red light like an arrow, and disappeared without a trace.
Zixuan didn't hesitate any longer, and jumped lightly into the cliff where the red light was constantly bursting. The body is very light, like a purple butterfly, flying lightly in the treacherous cliff.
The red light that continued to burst at the bottom of the cliff seemed to lock her whereabouts, and several big red balls of light smashed towards Zixuan quickly and accurately, Zixuan avoided it lightly, and the speed of descent became faster and faster. In the blink of an eye, the effort has been swallowed up by the red brilliance.
It was the little flower that floated out of the air, which suddenly appeared at the moment when Zixuan was devoured, and jumped into it in the moment when the red light was gone. At the same time, the red light burst out again, and the bottom of the Wushan cliff was once again obscured by the strange red light.
Cliff tops. A black-clothed and masked man stood on the edge of the cliff, looking down, the corners of his mouth under the black veil were slightly upturned, and Qin Lie's body reappeared when his arm was slightly raised.
The man in black said to Qin Lie's face, which had turned blue and white, "Lie'er, the show has begun, you have to come back soon!" β
After finishing speaking, he once again escaped into the depths of the cliff filled with red light, and was engulfed by red light in an instant.
The underworld
Qin Lie tried to tear the bookbag open for the nth time. But it was either bounced away by the dazzling light, or it didn't move.
These scattered red halos had already partially hovered over the Lechuan River, forming a huge red vortex at the same time, Qin Lie focused on whether the scroll was open or not, and didn't care.
He only concentrated on dealing with the bookbag, and was bounced open again, and was thrown heavily on the beach, fortunately it was the beach, or his beloved face. Isn't it going to break the phase, and when the time comes, how will I go back to the Yushu and the demon hunter who sees the flowers blooming.
He thought so. But in the water of the Lechuan River, there seemed to be someone laughing sneeringly. Qin Liehuo was very angry, "Dare to laugh at you Grandpa Qin!" β
"I said what are you laughing at! Looking at you, is Grandpa Qin easy to mess with?! β
When he looked at the appearance of the person who came, the fierce look on his face disappeared like a spring breeze and rain.
The purple-haired little mermaid swam from the Lethe River, leaving a long purple shadow behind her.
"It's you, Zi Xia!"
"You're so weird, how can you name people casually!" Zi Xia said as she combed her long, wet and purple hair.
"Well, that's because I remembered the name. I feel very similar to you! β
The little mermaid seemed stunned for a moment, "I don't know what you're talking about, but you're so stupid!" That's no ordinary book! It's an immortal in the upper realm. How can it be opened by brute force! β
"The Upper Realm? That is, the immortal realm" Qin Lie threw the scroll far away when he heard this, but the scroll turned its direction in mid-air. I don't know what kind of spell the little mermaid used, but the scroll instantly came to her closer.
"You're really a tyrannical thing," said the little mermaid, her long eyelashes blinking slightly, and a string of incantations in her mouth that Qin Lie couldn't understand.
The slender palm waved in front of the scroll, and there were scattered purple dots of light like sand, and the book bag suddenly fell off and fell into the little mermaid's hand.
Inside was an antique book, Qin Lie was simply stunned, the little mermaid continued to chant mantras in his mouth, and there was constantly a purple brilliance that turned into the power to turn the pages of the book, but in the blink of an eye of Qin Lie, the scroll was closed, and the immortal qi that was constantly dissipating gathered again.
The bookbag in the little mermaid's hand is back on top of the book again. Qin Lie watched as the scroll returned to his hands again.
In the process, he couldn't say a word.
Just stared at the little mermaid wider, and all the expressions of the little mermaid were tightly covered by the long purple hair, revealing only the small pointed chin under the hair.
Purple symbols kept circulating back and forth on the little mermaid's smooth forehead, and the little mermaid's face gradually turned blue.
Qin Lie wanted to step forward, but was bounced away by the purple light around her again, and Qin Lie stood up angrily.
"Hey, what the hell are you doing!"
Only then did the little mermaid open her turquoise eyes, "Qin Lie, I'm sorry, for the sake of my sister, I had to open the marriage book, and in return, I told you for your way out of the underworld!" β
"I don't care about Raushzi's marriage book, and I don't want to know why you want to open this thing, anyway, this doesn't belong to me, maybe it belongs to me, it belongs to my past life, no matter what, Zi Xia, I need to find the ghost grass and save my friend's life!"
The corners of Zi Xia's mouth curled into a bright smile, "Uh, are you going to save the feather demon Yanluo!" β
"How do you know?" Qin Lie subconsciously glanced at the scroll in his hand, "This thing sues you?" β
Zi Xia nodded, "In the marriage book, you are in love for the third life, the love is as deep as the sea, and it touches the heavens and the earth!" β
"Come less, what do these past love debts have to do with me, I only know, I am Qin Lie, what is the old age, the love of the third life, not the focus of my life, not to mention my other half, how can it be that cold woman" Yanluo's pale and haggard face flashed in front of him.
Zi Xia's eyes widened in confusion, "Cold woman." But I feel that she is not like this, she is such a kind and beautiful woman! β
"Kind and nice? You're talking about that feathered demon, how is it possible! Qin Lie pursed his lips disdainfully. My heart hurt involuntarily.
Zi Xia pursed her lips again and smiled, "Look, you have been punished." If you don't say anything, let your heart tell you"
The calm and waveless Lechuan River suddenly made waves, and the joy on the little mermaid's face dissipated, "Qin Lie, if you follow the direction of the Sansheng Stone in your memory, you will reach the boundary of the underworld, and from there you can leave the underworld!" With that, she began to swim towards the middle of the Lethe River.
"Where's the ghost grass, you haven't sued me yet!"
"Qin Lie, hurry up. It must have been the immortal aura of the marriage book that alarmed the ghosts of the underworld, they had wanted to get this thing for a long time! β
"Strange, what does the ghost want to do in the marriage book!"
Seeing that Qin Lie had no intention of leaving at all, the little mermaid waved her hand at him anxiously, "Let's go!" β
"If you don't sue me, I won't leave!"
"It's not false to say that you are stupid, the book of life and death is in the underworld, if you think about it, if the marriage book is also in the underworld, what kind of relationship will there be between the upper realm and the underworld!"
Qin Lie's heart moved, this relationship is really not a few words. It can be said clearly. He was still speculating, but he saw that the water of the Lechuan River was stirring even more violently, and even the color of the water gradually changed to a strange red.
The little mermaid who didn't have time to escape. Suddenly turned into a skeleton, with the churning of the river, it kept drifting, a huge wave rolled over, the skeleton shattered in response, then converged, and was smashed again.
Qin Lie seemed to feel the pain and struggle he had in the weak water.
"Zixia," he shouted, running towards the mermaid. But a faint purple light pushed him away again, and the voice of the little mermaid in mid-air was panicked and painful, "Qin Lie." The ghost grass is no longer in the underworld, and it is a front for them to lure you in. It's for the marriage book. Ahh
The shout made Qin Lie's heart ache violently, "Come out, you evil ghosts who eat people and don't spit out bones, your Grandpa Qin wants to see today, it's me, a demon hunter who specializes in catching ghosts, or you ghosts who don't go away!" β
The voice of the little mermaid Zi Xia has disappeared, and as the weak water reappears, the heart-rending sound of the undead continues to echo in mid-air, Qin Lie watched the souls scattered with the wind in the depths of the weak water.
He was about to jump into the weak water in anger, his body was already in the air, but his neck was bound by a thin rope, and the next second he was thrown heavily on the beach.
The ugly face of Hei Wuchang appeared in the sky above, "Do you think that drinking weak water is to break the illusion of three thousand weak water, do you still want to tell those souls this way to solve the curse?" β
"Then you're naΓ―ve! Sue you, but all souls who do not have negative karma do not follow this path, they enter samsara early and enjoy a new beginning, and only those souls who have the consequences of their past lives and cannot atone for their sins in this life can come here. Of all the souls that came in, none of them could escape. β
Saying that the black and impermanent face gradually moved away, Qin Lie seemed to be placed in the weak water again, he struggled desperately, the sticky red liquid fixed him in place, like a specimen"
Surrounded by shattered souls and countless demons that shone with green light, they swarmed forward and devoured Qin Lie's soul in one bite.
Qin Lie felt that his consciousness was gradually blurred, it turned out that this was the taste of his soul flying away, master, Lie'er might not be able to hold on.
The pain of the tearing seemed to be felt no longer possible, and the surroundings gradually quieted down, and Qin Lie's blurred vision only saw the green eyes of those evil ghosts.
Hei Wuchang stood outside the enchantment, and smiled at Bai Wuchang, "Brother Bai, you are still smart, just let Qin Lie die in the illusion devoured by a hundred ghosts, not only is it extremely painful, but also the soul cannot be gathered, and from now on, there will be no moon elder immortal in the nine heavens, wouldn't Lord Hades have less trouble."
Bai Wuchang didn't say a word, his eyes were staring at Qin Lie, who had gradually entered the illusion, and said cautiously, "Until the last moment, it's hard to say what it is, and it doesn't matter if the old man is scattered or not, as long as the marriage book can't feel the life of the old man, the spell can naturally be unraveled!" β
"It's so hard to break the spell, I just saw that mermaid can unravel it"
"Hmph, that mermaid would rather suffer in this Lechuan River for the rest of his life than sue you!"
Black Impermanence closed his mouth at this time, Qin Lie's soul could no longer be condensed, Black Impermanence unfolded the dust, and he was about to collect it, and a white light behind him swept him and Bai Impermanence far away.
Hei Wuchang didn't feel a smile curl up at the corner of his mouth, "The underworld is really lively, all the people, ghosts and immortals have arrived!" (To be continued)
