Chapter Twenty-Eight: Fengdu
On the second day, before the little baby woke up, duckweed waved his sleeves and went to Fengdu alone.
This time, she was not as flamboyant as last time, but secretly hid the demonic aura on her body, took an elixir brought from Kunlun Mountain, and changed her appearance. After entering Fengdu, those ghosts only recognized her as the same kind, and although there were no lantern ghosts to guide the way along the way, with her impression, it was also smooth.
Duckweed does not intend to alarm the Hades, her friendship with the Hades. Not to mention that it's very good, I borrowed something, and it should be no problem to even coax and cheat.
It's just that what she came to pick up this time is really against the rules of the Hades, even if she snatches it by force, the Hades King will definitely go to the Queen Mother of the West to complain. Duckweed didn't want to offend Hades for this little silver.
It's better to take it secretly and return it secretly. and the money was earned, so that there would not be another charge in the future.
Duckweed sighed, and secretly felt sorry for the stinginess of the Hades King in his heart, it happened thousands of years ago, why bother so much, the demon life is really difficult.
She turned into a white bone spirit, and along the way, she greeted all kinds of wild ghosts very familiarly. She twisted through Huangquan Road and came to the Lechuan River.
The Lechuan River is lonely, and there is no life at all. But if a living creature accidentally touches a drop, it will be robbed of its soul. The dazzling red on the other side of the Lechuan River is in stark contrast. Who would have thought that those flowery flowers on the other side of the bank are living on the lifeless Lechuan River next to them.
Here, apart from the other side of the flower, there is only death. Only when the undead pass through this river and drink Meng Po soup will they go to reincarnation. If there are ghosts who are unwilling to cross the river and forget the past, they will be kept here forever.
Hades is like this, Meng Po is like this, and those ghosts and wild ghosts are like this.
Duckweed looked at the white bones reflected in the water of the Lechuan River, pulled the bones on his cheeks and smiled, and the hanged ghost who was going to reincarnation on the side couldn't help but shudder.
Duckweed, no, at this moment, a white skeleton was following behind a group of various ghosts, walking towards the arched bridge in the distance.
The pale-faced female ghost on the side had the courage to talk: "Why didn't the girl come to reincarnate early? ”
Duckweed covered her mouth with her bony hands and cried: "Hey, thank you for your concern, I have suffered a lot." It's just that I don't want to be reincarnated sooner. I also came not long after I died. However, because I was tortured by Ling Chi before I was alive, I didn't wait for the corpse to decompose, and I had already become such a white skeleton. ”
The duckweed deliberately spoke loudly, and the ghosts couldn't help but cry when they heard it: "The girl is so pitiful. I lived for so many years before I died, and I read a lot of books before I died. For so many years, why haven't I heard of any girl being subjected to such horrific torture? ”
One of the female ghosts chimed in: "Yes." Besides, those who are usually late are heinous people, and since the girl has been tortured in this way, how can she come back to life?"
Duckweed continued to cry, and her voice was poignant: "You don't know, I am not punished by the government. Rather, it was taken by a wealthy family, and I was unwilling to commit myself to him, so the man lynched me ......."
When all the ghosts heard this, they all said angrily: "There is still such a thing in this world, is there still a royal law here?"
"Why don't you come to reincarnate later, first turn into a ghost to take revenge, and it's not too late to come back. "A hanged man is on the side with an idea.
"Why wouldn't I want to? Duckweed sobbed, "It's just that black and white impermanence came early, and I didn't even have a chance to be a lonely ghost, so I was detained here, how can I talk about revenge." ”
All the ghosts lamented, and they felt a little more pity for the duckweed.
The flowers on the other side are extremely bewitching, in stark contrast to the bleakness of the ghosts. Duckweed pretended to be sad and said: "If only I could not drink Meng Po soup, as long as I don't drink Meng Po soup, I will definitely go to the pranky skin for revenge in the next life." ”
The demons fell into deep thought, and they all sighed. A slender tall and thin male ghost said in a low voice: "The girl is obsessed with this, and her hatred has reached this point, if she goes to intercede with the Hades, maybe she can." ”
The hanged ghost just now interrupted: "Don't dream, Hades is so ruthless, how can he make an exception because of a little ghost." But I've heard that ......," said the hanged man, in a low voice, pretending to be mysterious, "I've heard that some people don't drink Meng Po soup before they have no choice." ”
Duckweed deliberately asked very anxiously: "Oh? May I ask how those people have crossed the Nai He Bridge? I heard that if you don't drink Meng Po soup, Meng Po will turn into a very terrifying ghost." ”
Some of the ghosts had already begun to tremble, and the hanged ghost said indifferently: "Just take advantage of the large number of people and mix in, and that's it." ”
"Yes, yes, there are so many of us, and when the time comes, we will cover the girl together. The girl has suffered so many grievances in this life, and she must take revenge in the next life. A female ghost in white said.
Another black-clad male ghost took off his clothes very sadly, leaking some rotten bodies. He had been listening carefully to duckweed from the beginning, and at this time with tears in his eyes, he replaced the clothes in his hand with duckweed and said, "Girl, you wear my clothes." Otherwise, if you are covered in white bones, then Meng Po will definitely find you. ”
Duckweed was moved: "Childe's kindness, I only have to repay it in the next life, and I will definitely remember Childe's and your kindness in the next life." ”
The ghosts also said that they would definitely cover the duckweed, so that she could cross the Nai He Bridge without drinking Meng Po soup. The ghosts walked for a while, and then they had reached the Nai He Bridge. The bridge was gloomy, and a woman in red on the bridge was cooking a pot of black soup with her back to the ghosts.
The woman in red didn't look up, but just concentrated on stopping the soup, which should be the legendary Meng Po. The demons guarded the duckweed in the middle and flocked to the bridge together.
However, Meng Po didn't seem to be in a hurry to divide the soup, but slowly stirred the soup in the pot. Duckweed was a little nervous, after all, it was the first time she had done such a thing.
Meng Po slowly turned her head and saw that there was no pupil on a very gorgeous face.
It turned out that Meng Po was a blind man, no wonder someone could fish without drinking muddy water. All the ghosts breathed a sigh of relief, and duckweed also pretended to be relieved. Duckweed frowned secretly, it turned out that Meng Po had become like this, no wonder she hated Hades so much now. If Meng Po and Hades were still as in love as before, they wouldn't have to go through so much trouble to get Meng Po soup by themselves.
Hey, maybe those who fish in troubled waters are deliberately done by Meng Po. After all, in the end, the gods blamed him, and it was also the Hades who bore it.
The red-clothed Meng Po placed eighteen bowls at the bridge, poured them full in turn, and said to the ghosts with an expressionless face: "One bowl per person, don't drink more, don't drink less." If you drink too much, you will become stupid in the next life, and if you drink less, you will not be able to forget the past, and it will be very painful. ”
