Chapter 25: Into the Underworld
Here stands a hill, black as ink, exuding a strong demonic aura, and at the top of the hill is a small house, also black. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
In front of the house, there stood a child of about ten years old, dressed in black, wearing a small hood that covered half of his face.
The hooded child said: "You have passed, this demon should fulfill his promise, and the person you want to find has gone to the underworld." ”
Zhang Daoling arched his hand and said, "How to enter the underworld?" ”
The hooded child said: "It's easy to enter the underworld, it's in the small black house, will you go immediately?" ”
Zhang Daoling said: "Without further ado, I'll go today." ”
"Come with me." The hooded child turned around and led the way in front of him, and entered the small black room, and the group followed.
Inside the house, the hooded child asked everyone to stand in a patterned array, the hooded child glanced at everyone, his eyes fell on Zhang Hongjun, and said: "You are possessed by a soul body, it is easy to enter the underworld, but it is difficult to come out, you better not go, otherwise it will be difficult to protect everything." ”
Zhang Hongjun possessed Bai Jingjing at this time, and when he heard it say this, he looked at Zhang Daoling, who was also embarrassed, and wanted to use Zhang Hongjun's soul body to sense the hell bead, but at this time, he couldn't, and said: "Since this is the case, Zhang Daoyou will stay here." ”
Zhang Hongjun hesitated slightly, looked at the hooded child, and asked: "I remember that the little girl next to the old tree demon is also a soul body, why can she go, but I can't?" ”
Hooded Child: "They have the Hell Orb, and if you have such a treasure, you should not be afraid of the fear of crossing the boundary." ”
When Zhang Hongjun heard this, he sighed slightly and withdrew from the small formation.
But at this moment, Bai Jingjing tugged at his sleeve and whispered in his ear: "If you are sure to practice the 'Nine Dragons Soul Alchemy' to the second layer, you will not be afraid of the pain of penetrating the realm. ”
Zhang Hongjun frowned slightly and asked, "I am now the power of the Three Tigers, which is the level of the Nine Dragons Soul Alchemy?" ”
Bai Jingjing thought for a moment and said, "It should be considered to be more than the second layer." ”
Zhang Hongjun knew this, smiled slightly, turned around and returned to the small formation, and said to the hooded child: "I decided to go to the underworld, you can open the passage." ”
The hooded child showed a trace of regret and disdain, and said, "Since you are not afraid of the pain of crossing the boundary, then let it be." ”
As he spoke, he pinched a demon trick with both hands, the formation flickered, and a thick demonic qi was injected into the array, only to hear the sound of a bell, and everyone felt that the hut was sinking, and the speed was very fast, I don't know how long it had been sinking, but I still felt that it was moving.
The most nervous is Zhang Hongjun, as a soul body, although he possesses Bai Jingjing, the powerful oppressive force generated by the crossing almost squeezed him out of Bai Jingjing's body, but fortunately, Bai Jingjing reminded him to run the Nine Dragons Soul Alchemy Technique before he settled down.
I don't know how long it took, I felt that the hut shook lightly and stopped sinking, and at this time, the hooded child also raised his head and said: "Everyone, the underworld has arrived, and the demon will not be far away, and the demon will wait for you here in five days, goodbye." ”
The door of the house opened, and everyone walked out of the hut, the scenery in the distance had changed, but the black mountain was still there, and the whole hill was going on before I wanted to come to the border.
In the distance, there was a barren place, the grass was green, and the sky was gray, exuding the unique atmosphere of the underworld.
Everyone was looking around, and they heard the earth tremble slightly, and when they looked back, they saw that the black mountain with the small black house had sunk into the ground, and they had disappeared in an instant, and it seemed that they had returned to the mortal world.
"Phew! Who dares to smuggle into the underworld! ”
Suddenly, several people rushed out from under a big tree not far away, these people were all soul bodies, and soul bodies were tangible things in the underworld, just like the human race in the mortal world.
These people were dressed in soldier armor and armed with weapons, obviously ghost soldiers of the underworld.
A few ghost soldiers stared at everyone, their eyes were blazing, although there were only five, much less than the dozen or so people here, in the case of less to more, they were extremely brave, without a trace of fear.
"A few stowaways, put their hands up and go back with us for interrogation." A seemingly ghost soldier captain said.
Qingyu Liu frowned, and was about to draw the sword, but was stopped by Zhang Daoling, Qingyu was puzzled, and said: "A few little ghosts, let this fairy be killed." ”
Zhang Daoling shook his head and said: "The underworld is different from the mortal world, in the mortal world, if you kill a few ordinary people, you will kill them, but the underworld can't, the ghost soldiers have marks on their bodies, once they are killed, they will be immediately known by the military palace, and the current scene will also be recorded and transmitted back to the military palace." ”
Light rain was stunned for a moment, and had no choice but to take back the sword, Zhang Daoling explained, followed the ghost soldiers first, and then made plans after arriving at the military hall.
Zhang Daoling's plan is to communicate with the hall master after arriving at the palace and explain his intentions, with their identity in the mortal world, this face is still there.
Everyone followed the ghost soldiers, and when the ghost soldiers saw that they cooperated so well, they didn't embarrass them, but just let them follow well, and after a while, they came to the palace of soldiers, and the lord of the hall of soldiers was the highest person in charge of this side.
When he arrived at the military palace, Zhang Daoling revealed his identity and said: "I am Zhang Daoling, the national teacher of Qi State, I have something important to come here, please see the master of the military palace." ”
The captain of the ghost soldiers was startled, this old Taoist still had such an identity, fortunately, he didn't embarrass them too much before, so he hurriedly went to find the leader of the upper level, and the leader went to the hall master.
After a while, he returned, but he was told that the hall master had been away for a long time, Zhang Daoling asked when he would return, and the team leader shook his head, who could say the hall master's affairs, everyone had to wait.
It stands to reason that even if Zhang Daoling revealed his identity and was not released by the hall master, they were still suspects.
But how dare the leader really treat them as suspects and let them live in cells, but explain it, vacate the best large room for everyone to occupy, but slightly restrict their movement and prevent them from leaving the palace.
"I feel something is wrong."
In the big room, Zhang Hongjun suddenly spoke, and Zhang Daoling and the others immediately looked at him.
"What Daoyou said is good, and Ben Dao also feels that something is wrong, but I can't remember what is wrong for a while." Zhang Daoling nodded, then looked at Zhang Hongjun and asked, "What did Daoyou find wrong?" ”
Zhang Hongjun nodded, said in his heart, "No, there are two, one is that we appear in such a barren place, why does a patrol team happen to appear?"
Everyone nodded, thinking deeply, and Qingyu interjected: "Yes, this is too much of a coincidence, as if it has been waiting for it early." ”
Zhang Hongjun smiled slightly and said, "Second, the leader's eyes were erratic when he came back, obviously lying. ”
Qingyu said again: "It means that the hall master is here, but he doesn't want to see us, why doesn't he want to see us?" We're not tigers, and we can eat him. ”
Zhang Hongjun said: "He's stalling for time. ”
"Procrastinating?"
"Yes, he's stalling for time, if I'm not mistaken, the Green Scale Armor has calculated that we are coming, and has greeted him, and the team of ghost soldiers has received his order to stay there early." Zhang Hongjun said.
"Damn, it was calculated by Nas." Qingyu raised her eyebrows, and gritted her silver teeth in anger.
Zhang Daoling, Chi Yanxia, and Guan Yizi looked at each other, Zhang Daoling had the most scheming among the three, and when they saw him, they didn't have any plans, and they had no choice but to look at Zhang Hongjun again.
Qingyu asked, "Then do we have to wait?" ”
Zhang Hongjun: "I can't wait any longer, wait until the cucumber vegetables are cold." ”
"What do you mean?"
Zhang Hongjun: "The mountain can't come, let's go over." ”
Light Rain: "What do you mean?" ”
Zhang Hongjun: "If he doesn't come, let's go find him." ”
Zhang Daoling, Chi Yanxia, and Guan Yizi discussed a little, and only this method was feasible.
They were locked in a large room, and there were ghost soldiers patrolling outside, which was a normal patrol, but everyone looked carefully, in addition to the patrolling ghost soldiers, there were many secret posts in the hiding places, which should be abnormal.
"Sure enough, there are ghosts, so many dark sentinels are arranged." Light rain gritted her teeth.
