Chapter 126: Asking for an Answer
I shook my head and said, "Right now, you're not feeling well, take me out, some ghosts know, I have to beg for a few more meals, I don't go, you are not allowed to go!"
The old man laughed again, thief and thief.
"It's okay, let's go through the secret passage. ”
What would it be like if there was only darkness left between heaven and earth?
It's like when you can't fall asleep with your eyes closed, the darkness you see in front of you may be like the darkness you see in the depths of your consciousness when the living step into death.
But the darkness is not as good as I see before my eyes.
Vast and desolate, and so dark that it is terrifying, suffocating and despairing.
In addition to the boundless darkness between heaven and earth, only the endless volcano remains.
Quiet, resting, depressed, enthusiastic, surging, large and small volcanoes are scattered between the continuous black mist, and from a distance, it looks like a storm surging in a black ocean, and above each crater rolls a strange and terrifying devouring force, like the silent roar of a demon.
The scorching magma erupted from time to time from the craters that had not been able to rest in peace, and the thick and dazzling red light pierced my eyes, as if a pair of blood-red hands were about to rob my eyes.
Goo-dong.
I swallowed hard in my throat and looked sideways at the old Hades beside me, who was half-lit by the red light.
"Old man, where is this?"
"Where I belong. ”
The old man smiled, raised his right hand and pointed at it from afar: "Do you see there? In a while, I will go to that volcano and fill in the loopholes in the yin and yang worlds." ”
This is the burial place of the successive Yan Jun?!
I staggered back in shock, flustered: "Old Hades, you brought me here"
"Hey, hey. ”
He was still smiling, like a heartless old child: "Take you to see the scene of the large grave." ”
“”
I shuddered, and I almost didn't lift it up in one breath.
On the side, the old king squinted his eyes and continued: "Girl, don't be afraid, I used to come here to stay here for a while, although it looks terrifying, but this is the quietest and most comfortable place in the underworld, stay here for a while, and many things that you can't figure out can be figured out." ”
"Old Hades, are you sad?" I asked.
The old man laughed: "What sad am I, most of those who are afraid of death in reality are because they don't know where to go, but I knew from the beginning that I have been waiting for this day for thousands of years." ”
"Old man, I don't want you to fill in the volcano"
I said what I was feeling, but I didn't notice that my voice was a little choked.
The old man smiled and said, "Silly boy, if I go to fill in the volcano, your brother Cui may also succeed as the new Yan Jun, and he will protect you." ”
"Old man, you have protected me for hundreds of years, I am used to it, I don't want to change to other Lord Yama to protect me, old man, don't say that"
Tears welled up in my eyes.
The old king reached out and wiped the sides of my cheeks for me, shook his head and said, "Why do you love to cry more and more, the girl who used to have no heart and lungs and added crickets to my tea is more cute!"
"Huh?"
I froze, "You know?"
"It's not enough"
The old king looked into the distance, and his voice was low and slow: "I also know that you often steal the wine in my wine cellar, the books in the library pavilion, and my white jade pill, which is also used by this girl of yours to wipe her face, right?"
Boom!
I have a stalk in my throat, "Old Hades"
"Otherwise, why do you think there are three new white jade pills in that box?
Originally
My heart suddenly became sour.
In the past, I only knew that Yan Jun was very indulgent to me, but I didn't know that he gave me a lot of care in private.
Even Bai Yudan is willing to go to the gods of Thirty-Three Days City again for me.
I just felt that the energy in my heart kept coming up, the mist in front of me was flooding, and the complicated feelings were difficult to describe for a while.
"Alright, don't be moved. ”
The old king of Hades waved his hand, and suddenly made a straight face: "In the past few hundred years, you have made a lot of trouble in the underworld, and most of them have me and Lao Cui to carry you around, but in the future, you should also learn to grow up and adapt to the many rules that already exist in this world, and it is a matter of time before you integrate." ”
"I wrote it down. ”
I choked up and nodded.
"But why did you suddenly bring me here, old man?"
"I just want to
Think for yourself why you want to go to the world. The old man said meaningfully.
I vaguely understood that he had already seen that my motivational rhetoric was pure nonsense, and now he asked me, I am afraid that he is also making a final decision about whether I can continue to run for the high school.
After thinking about it, I calmed down and opened my mouth.
"Old man, I just want to do something that I haven't been able to do in six hundred years, and I don't dare to do. ”
Hearing this, I finally felt sorry for myself, and the old Hades nodded with satisfaction.
I continued: "You know, in the past 600 years, although I have been living in the underworld, relying on you and Master Cui like a rice worm, I don't feel good in my heart, I have no origin, no home, and no life, I seem to be the loneliest existence in the six worlds of heaven and earth, and this feeling always makes my heart uneasy. ”
"I went to the human world, but I want an answer?" asked the old Hades.
I nodded, but shook my head again: "The world...... Six hundred years have passed, and the vicissitudes of life have long changed, and I don't want to look for the past, I just want to ...... Determine the future. ”
"Understood. ”
The old king patted my head and smiled kindly and kindly: "The girl has grown up, I understand your intentions, go and prepare for the next game, if you don't know anything, ask Lao Cui, he will help you." ”
"Old man...... You promised to get me selected?!"
I looked at him with tears wide open and in disbelief.
The old king laughed: "Why don't you agree, do you really let you watch the next Yan monarch succeed to the throne in the underworld......?"
This old man, really......
I was so amused by him that I couldn't cry or laugh, but my heart relaxed a lot.
Although the assessment process was full of twists and turns, overall, I was lucky.
"By the way, there's one more thing I'd like to ask you think. ”
The old Hades suddenly became serious, and his expression changed so quickly that I couldn't keep up for a while.
"What's the matter?" I asked.
"Regarding the new Yan Jun, who does Dongtian think is more suitable?" asked the old Hades, half-jokingly and half-seriously.
My heart jumped, I scratched the back of my head, and reluctantly said, "This kind of question...... Yan Jun is embarrassed by himself, why bother to drag me into the water?"
"You goblin!"
The old Hades sighed: "It's okay, it's okay......"
