The smoke curled, and Xia Qing waited patiently.

But the sandalwood was almost burned out, and there was still no sign of the boatman, and the fog on the Luoshui River was thick, and there was not even a ghost in the silence.

"Huh......"

Xia Qing frowned, I didn't encounter such a situation last time I came with the old shopkeeper, was it because of which step I made a mistake, or did something happen to the Netherworld? Or, the entrance to the Netherworld is no longer here?

Xia Qing was a little apprehensive, although he had lived in Wuzhou for many years, he was still unpredictable about the strangeness of Wuzhou.

The outside world is often the same, and many things are what they were ten years ago and will still be ten years later, but Wuzhou is different, not to mention ten years, it may be turned upside down overnight. It is very dangerous for those who like to wander and explore, and it is also the charm of Wuzhou. In the same place, each exploration may have different circumstances and gains.

Xia Qing pondered for a while, lit the three sticks of sandalwood again, and summoned the ferryman of the Middle Netherworld again.

There was wind on the river, the sandalwood burned quickly, and there was still no movement on the river, and the ferryman was nowhere to be seen.

Xia Qing frequently looked at the mist-shrouded river, obviously a little anxious, and his heart became more and more confused and worried, not knowing what was going on.

"Young Alliance Master, do you have to go to the Netherworld here?" King Li asked suddenly, his expression was a little solemn, as if he wanted to say something but didn't say it.

"Definitely!"

Xia Qing nodded resolutely and said in a deep voice: "In order to find my mother, I can pay any price, if the ferryman from the Netherworld doesn't come, I will swim over even if I go into the water!"

Underwater danger, I don't know how many forbidden magic circles have been laid, but when necessary, no matter how big the danger is, Xia Qing will not pay attention to it. After getting the portrait and knowing what his mother looked like and what her name was, he couldn't wait to rush to the Netherworld to find it immediately, and he couldn't wait for a long time. Exploring the ruins of the Immortal Kingdom, breaking through to the Yang God Realm, and finding his mother are his three long-cherished wishes over the years.

"If you can't swim, half a column of incense on the boat will take a thousand years underwater. King Li replied, his eyes were a little deep, as if he remembered something.

Xia Qing was surprised, "Senior, have you ever been to the Netherworld?"

"Hehe, is it a surprise?"

King Li paused and said, "In the Zhongzhou Continent, Wuzhou is the strangest place, especially at night, there are many incredible things that make people feel strange. For example, at the entrance of the Netherworld, it will take half a pillar of incense on a special Netherworld ferry, but if you want to swim through the water, you may not be able to reach it for a thousand years. ”

"Why?" Xia Qing asked.

"Because, the Netherworld and Wuzhou are not in the same place at all, or in other words, the Netherworld is in another world, and the ferry boat is a special teleportation treasure ship. King Li explained that although it had been sealed for eight hundred years, his understanding of many places was still far above Xia Qing. After all, eight hundred years ago, he was the top man who dominated Zhongzhou at that time!

"In another world?"

Xia Qing was surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, he didn't have any doubts about King Li's statement. At the beginning, when he first followed the old shopkeeper to the netherworld, he felt that something was wrong.

"Yes, in another world, a gray area between the human realm and the underground ghost house. Such a place is also called the Gray Realm. Wuzhou at night is the meeting point of many worlds, a forbidden place in the gray world, and one wrong step may lead to a strange world, absurd, dangerous, wild, but fascinating. "King Li has some vicissitudes of life, and it seems to have opened up a long memory.

Xia Qing was embarrassed, originally thought that King Li had never been to Wuzhou, and vigorously advocated the benefits of becoming a night wanderer in Wuzhou; Thinking about it carefully, it's not surprising at all, King Li was already so rebellious eight hundred years ago, and it would be abnormal if he didn't know anything about Wuzhou.

The cold wind blew, the sandalwood burned out again, and there was still no movement on the river.

Xia Qing gritted his teeth, ready to burn incense again to summon the ferryman of the netherworld, although he was worried, he had to go to the netherworld tonight.

Now, the situation in the world is turbulent, the Dakang Dynasty is completely divided at any time, and the Heavenly God Legion of the Divine Court will also descend at any time, and the world will be absolutely chaotic at that time, and Wuzhou, which is far away from the Central Plains, will not be spared, and everyone will be involved. Xia Qing knew that time was running out for herself, and she had to find her mother as quickly as possible.

"Slow, Young Alliance Master, it's useless for you to do this. King Li suddenly stretched out his hand to stop Xia Qing.

"Before, I came to the old innkeeper once, and I can summon the ferryman of the Netherworld by lighting sandalwood, how can it be useless?" Xia Qing looked at King Li, hoping that the latter could answer the doubts in his heart. For some reason, he felt more and more wrong, just thinking about how to find someone in the Netherworld, he didn't expect to encounter such a situation at all.

If you can't even go to the Netherworld, how can you find someone?

Xia Qing was uneasy and a little anxious. The laws of the nether world are completely different from the human world, and you must leave before dawn, otherwise you will become a dead soul in the nether world and never be able to return to the human world. Now, the longer the ferryman is missing, the longer the delay becomes.

The fog rolls and the wind gets colder.

The sandalwood incense planted in the incense burner was completely extinguished, leaving only a wisp of green smoke wafting in the night sky, and the stone monument towering over the river bank looked even more eerie.

"Normally, lighting sandalwood on an incense burner does summon ferrymen, but sometimes it doesn't. ”

King Li paused, pondered for a while, and then said: "If I guess correctly, what happened in the Netherworld, with the usual method, I am afraid that I will not be able to wait until dawn to wait for the ferryman." ”

"Senior Liwang, what should I do then?" Xia Qing was really anxious, her eyelids fluttered, and she knew that something was really wrong tonight.

"Young Alliance Master, do you have to go?" King Li asked again, his voice was low, he seemed to be quite afraid of the Netherworld, and he tried not to go if he could, and he didn't even want to get close.

"Definitely!"

Xia Qing nodded resolutely, and after retrieving the portrait and knowing what his mother's name was, the desire to find his mother was unprecedentedly strong, and nothing could stop him from thinking about it.

"Well, since you have to go, let's just make a big fuss and let the King of Jizo come to greet him personally, hahaha......"

King Li laughed, then stepped forward, crouched down and hugged the ancient stone tablet that stood on the bank of the river, and pulled it up with all his might. With a click, the stele shook and the mountains shook, and many cracks appeared in the ground, and the river tumbled.

"Senior Liwang, this ......" Xia Qing was stunned, and his heart became even more uneasy. Pull out the boundary monuments engraved with the three big characters of 'Netherworld', and King Li will not be afraid of the wrath of the King of Jizo and completely close the entrance to the Netherworld?

"Haha, don't worry, the old man knows that I pulled out the stone tablet, and he will come out to greet him in person immediately! haha...... Get up for me!"

King Liwang drank violently, the muscles on his body bulged high, and he exerted force violently.

There were more cracks in the ground, and then, with a loud bang, the ancient stone tablet was forcibly pulled out by King Li. The heavy magic circles superimposed on the stone tablet were all destroyed at once.

Liwang shot, it's so simple and rude!

Xia Qing's heart was beating faster, and a layer of sweat oozed from his forehead, and for a while, he didn't know if it was a blessing or a curse to go out with King Li this time.
