Chapter 60: Am I a Bait?
Soon, night came.
Ye Dingxi and I were talking in the room, and suddenly I heard a few light coughs from the courtyard.
Old man Luo is punctual.
We came out to meet him, and without much conversation, we walked out of the courtyard together.
"There are a lot of ghosts in the underworld, you two living people are swaggering around, is it really okay?"
I asked quietly.
Ye Dingxi pointed to the white paper lantern that Old Man Luo was holding in his hand and said, "That's a ghost lamp, as long as the candle flame is not extinguished, ordinary ghosts can't see us." ”
I looked at the lantern, which was the same as that used in funeral ceremonies in the present world, except that the candlelight was fluorescent green, flickering and shaking, like a ghost fire.
Soon, we walked to the vicinity of the Nai Ho Bridge.
There were no ghosts all the way, and it wasn't until here that I saw one - the God of the Day Wanderer.
The milk baby was dressed in a small white robe and white hat, squatting on the bridge in a daze, and her dripping eyes swept to me, and she immediately smiled into a sunflower.
"Auntie!"
"It's a small day......"
I quietly glanced at the two people on the left, walked up to me and said, "Why are you sitting here again?"
"My mother is depressed all day long, only when my aunt goes, I occasionally smile, I don't know how to make my mother happy, sitting here and thinking about it, I can't think of a way......"
Xiao Ri pouted, and replied in a milky voice.
Although these two brothers are young, they love their mothers very much, and most of the delicious and fun they get when they go in and out of the yang world on weekdays are taken to coax their mothers to be happy.
It's early for a child without a father to be sensible......
I sighed in my heart, and subconsciously glanced at Old Man Luo.
He was staring at the sun wandering god, but when he felt my slightly dissatisfied gaze swept away, he secretly turned around to enjoy the flowers and grass and the river.
I didn't pay attention to him anymore, and I felt that the Sun Wandering God was not aware of the existence of the living, and I was a little relieved.
"Auntie still has some things to do, and I will accompany your mother more when I get back. ”
So saying, I got up and went away.
Riyoushen nodded very obediently, but asked, "Auntie, why didn't your cat follow?"
"That guy......"
I glanced back at Ye Dingxi and smiled slyly: "I'm thinking about it at home!"
Walking in front of the seventeen hell gates, there were many ghosts encountered, including several high-ranking prison officials, but none of them found Ye Dingxi and Old Man Luo.
I had to sigh, "This lantern is really good." ”
Old man Luo was happy between his eyebrows, quite proud.
"This ghost fire is rare, you have to go to the deep forest and old mountain, the mass grave of the year is the best, the purity of the ghost fire there is higher, choose a time when the yin qi is the heaviest, collect some when the ghost fire is floating and then purify it, in order to get such a star-and-a half thing. ”
Even if I was a ghost, I had to shrink my neck to hear him talk about places like mass graves so naturally.
"Ye Dingxi, this old man is really inhibited!" I sighed quietly.
"Mortals are afraid of this and that, in the final analysis, they are still afraid of death, but he is not afraid at all, naturally he dares to go anywhere. ”
Ye Dingxi's words seem to have a deep meaning.
I nodded secretly, curious, "Then are you afraid of death?"
"Dead?"
The corners of Ye Dingxi's lips hooked, "Someone has to be able to move me." ”
What a big breath.
I suddenly felt that I had really underestimated Ye Dingxi before.
In the blink of an eye, we arrived at the gates of Endless Hell.
The dark red gate was high overhead, and just standing below could already feel an inexplicable coercion.
When the two oni on guard in front of the door saw me, they were stunned for a moment, and then greeted me.
"Auntie, how did you get here?"
I put on a somewhat elder posture and said with a little seriousness: "What, I can't come?"
"My aunt misunderstood. ”
One of the ghosts said with a smile: "It's just that this place is a forbidden place in the underworld, if it weren't for escorting the ghosts, even Lord Cui and Lord Zhong wouldn't come, auntie, you ......."
"Previously, Lord Cui instructed that my aunt should not enter the Infernal Hell without permission, and I asked my aunt not to embarrass the little ones. Another ghost answered.
The two ghosts are shrewd, and one ghost blocked all the words I wanted to say next in my throat.
Although relying on the white paper lantern, Ye Dingxi and Old Man Luo would not be noticed, but if they wanted to enter through this door, they must first let the ghost open the door.
I thought for a moment and said, "I won't go in, it's just that the ghost who offended me was sent here a few days ago, and I want to see if he's doing well, and if not, I'll be relieved." ”
"That aunt means ......"
The ghost cha remembers my generation in the end, and my backer is half the sky of the underworld, so I really can't be easily offended.
When I saw that he was relieved, I said, "You go and see for me how that 41033300 man is doing, and I will wait for you to come out at the door." ”
The two demons glanced at each other.
"Okay, auntie, please wait a minute. ”
They agreed, one remained at the door, and the other turned and turned the compass-shaped keyhole on the door a few times.
Squeak.
As the heavy gate slowly pushed open, you could see a scene of thick fog in the wilderness.
There were no ghosts, no torture instruments, and the desolate and gloomy avenue stretched from the door into the distance, as if there was no end, and only occasionally a few ghosts flashed through the shadows very quickly.
Compared to the other seventeen hells, this is the real eerie horror, which makes me, a hundred-year-old female ghost, can't help but feel creepy.
The ghost cha stepped into the threshold and entered, and before the door was closed, the eyes of Ye Dingxi and Old Man Luo quickly met.
Bell ......
A crisp, ethereal sound of bells.
The two demons seemed to be frozen suddenly, and they froze in place.
I squinted slightly, and carefully looked at the magic weapon in Old Man Luo's hand, it was the thing used to calm me on the day of the Midyear Festival, I thought it should be the Soul Bell.
"Since you have Sister Zhen's love token, why don't you want to see her again?"
I couldn't help but ask.
Old man Luo, who was walking two steps ahead, was stunned, and as if he didn't hear my words, he turned around and said with a smile: "Girl, this infernal hell is extremely complicated, and it is easy to lose yourself if you are not careful, and those words of the ghosts, the girl must not believe it." ”
"Thanks for the reminder. I replied dryly.
When the three of us walked in, Ye Dingxi took me to hide by the door first, and Old Man Luo turned around and adjusted the direction of the ghost to push the door, and then urged the bell in his hand again.
Jingle Bell ......
The ghost suddenly woke up, but it seemed that he had lost the memory of the previous quarter of an hour, and subconsciously raised his feet and stepped out of the door.
"Hey, why did I open the door again?"
"Hurry up and lock the door, don't be sluggish, and watch out for any ghost sneaking out. ”
The ghost outside urged.
When the slightly decayed and heavy door slowly closed, I asked, "The door is locked, how can I get out in a while?"
"Rest assured, girl. ”
Old man Luo said very confidently: "The soul bell rings for the third time, and they can recover their memories again, and they will definitely open the door to find you at that time." ”
Dare to love me as a bait?
