Chapter 320: A Trip to the Underworld
There are clouds in ancient poems, the bright moon in the Qin period and the Han period, and the Long March has not yet been returned. But to make the dragon city fly will not teach Humadu Yin Mountain.
Yinshan is the frontier land in ancient times, east-west direction, belongs to the ancient fault block mountain, from the wolf mountain in the west, Wula Mountain, in the middle of the Daqing Mountain, gray Tengliang Mountain, in the south of Liangcheng Mountain, Huashan, east of the Ma Mountains, the mountains and ravines, mostly barren land, for the ancient Xiongnu Hu Barbarian often rested.
At the foot of Yin Mountain, there is almost no grass as far as the eye can see, and when you come, the towns on the road are scarce, there is a lack of water, the vegetation cover is very low, and there are bare stone mountains everywhere.
We traveled all the way, following the mountain road in the memory of the white ape to a valley surrounded by all sides, in the valley there was no grass, and even some white bones were scattered, eroded by wind, sand and rain, and seriously corrupted.
The white ape carried a huge basket on his back, and Dorjee's body lay in it.
The white ape stood upright and was about five meters high, he walked to a stone in the valley, removed the stone stone, and then the third eye in the center of the eyebrow cracked, and a divine light shone, as if looking for an entrance, and then he punched out, the mountain collapsed, and the rocks splashed, and a moment later a cave appeared.
There was a cold air rushing out of the cave, the white ape was the first to enter, we followed, about a hundred meters later, there was a dense in front of us, it was an enchantment, the white ape held a torch, shining towards the enchantment, stretched out his hand to us and gestured, after entering the enchantment is the underworld.
After the three of us entered the Netherworld Enchantment, the place where we were located was a place protruding from the middle of a cliff Jedi, and the place behind us looked like a mountain rock at first glance, but it was created by the enchantment, and it was one with the surrounding environment, and it was difficult to distinguish the real from the false with the naked eye.
And at the foot of the foot, there is a land of mountains and rivers, but the light here is very dim, and there is a cold moon overhead, dotted with stars.
"It is rumored that there is only night and no day in the underworld, and the yin qi here is very heavy, if the living live in the underworld, it will not be more than three months at most, and they will lose their living qi and become the walking dead." Yunyue said.
"The moon has always been there?" I looked at the cold moon in the sky and said, because the Taiyin Qi here is too strong.
Yun Yue nodded and said, "I heard from my master that there is only night and no day in the underworld, so the moon is always there. ”
I looked far into the distance, my consciousness spread, and I could faintly see in the distance surrounded by walls and ancient and terrifying buildings, but my consciousness could not scan the living forms, only some mechanical moving things, no heartbeat.
"Brother Ape, your eyesight in the underworld is not good, this place is at the junction of yin and yang, and ordinary ghosts dare not intrude, so it is better for you to wait here for us to come back." I said.
The white ape gestured, worried about our safety.
I said, "Let's put it down, we are all disciples of Maoshan, and the last thing we are afraid of is the evil ghosts in the underworld." ”
In this way, the white ape was relieved, he untied the basket on his body, glanced at Dorjee in the basket, and signaled us to leave with peace of mind.
The white ape is one of the few creatures among thousands of creatures that is not afraid of direct sunlight, and he can look directly at the sunlight all day long, so even the snow and strong light have no effect on his eyesight, but in the underworld, where the light is dark, it is equivalent to a blind man.
But here, for me, it is like a fish in water, I can see at night with a pair of tricks, and my vision will not be affected in the slightest under this light.
Yunyue and I leaped down from the cliff, all the way to the underworld, after we crossed a cliff, the qi of the underworld became more and more serious, the cold qi invaded the surface of the body, wanting to seep into the flesh and blood, I urged the golden Dao qi to protect the body, isolate the yin qi.
Two hours later, the two of us arrived at a huge city, this huge city was more than ten meters high in walls alone, and in front of the city, there was a moat.
The moat is about ten meters wide, and the river is black, and there is not even a bridge over the moat.
I jumped up and wanted to jump directly, the distance of ten meters was not difficult for me, but what embarrassed and frightened me was that the moment I jumped out, my body suddenly seemed to be a hundred times heavier, and I fell directly, and the whole person didn't even jump out of half a meter!
I grabbed the shore in a hurry, and my toes touched the water of the moat, as if something was tugging at my feet.
Seeing this, Yunyue hurriedly grabbed my wrist, her eyebrows frowned slightly, because it was obvious that she also sensed my weight, and I secretly climbed to the river bank with my divine power, and let out a cold sweat.
"This is the weak water of the Yin River." Yunyue said.
"What's the point?" I wondered.
Yun Yue said: "The Yin River is weak, weighing more than three thousand, and if a mortal's body sinks into the weak water, it will not be able to come up again. ”
"There's such a weird thing." I muttered. "There is no bridge over this Yin River, so it's troublesome."
Yun Yue stepped forward, looked at the river below, stretched out her fingers, and ran the Extreme Ice Technique, I hurriedly grabbed Yun Yue's wrist and said: "Don't, the Yin River is weak and the water flows, if you want to freeze it, it will cost you at least half of your Dao Qi, your body is just right, you can no longer use the Extreme Ice Technique at will, and you have to preserve your strength, I don't know what the situation is in this ghost city in the underworld." ”
"How do I get there?" Yunyue asked.
My consciousness spread, and I noticed that a small boat was tied to the opposite shore a few miles away, and at that moment, I suddenly heard the sound of neat footsteps!
Yunyue raised her head and looked at the gate of the ghost city, there was a group of soldiers wearing ancient costumes passing by, twenty or thirty people, I looked at it, and saw that these people were withered and had no breath of life, they seemed to be patrolling, and the moving objects without breath of life that I had scanned in my consciousness before were these soldiers.
"It seems that these are Yin soldiers, follow me." I took Yunyue to the small river where the boat was found, and the Dao Qi extended, trying to untie the boat, but the Dao Qi stretched out and was all absorbed by the Yin River, which seemed to have a great gravitational force, a thousand times that of normal gravity.
Another group of Yin soldiers passed by, and I found that although these Yin soldiers did not have the breath of life, they had brain waves, that is, fluctuations in the sea of knowledge, and my eyes flashed red, and I looked at the last Yin soldier, who was holding a spear, and suddenly stopped.
The Yin Soldier turned his head to look at us, and as he walked as he walked forward, he placed his spear on the ground and bent down as hard as he could, his bones rattling as he untied the boat on the edge of the Milky Way.
"How did you do that?" Yunyue asked in surprise.
"It has a certain consciousness, but it is very shallow, equivalent to an imbecile creature, and it is easy to control." I said.
The Yin soldier got on the boat, rowed the oars to the side of my door, and Yunyue and I got on the boat carefully, but at this moment, I suddenly felt creepy, and my hairs rose!
Because in the Yin River, there was a black thing swimming by, Yun Yue was also startled and didn't dare to make a sound, but the black creature did not attack us, but swam from the bottom of the boat, made a splash, and then sank to the bottom of the Yin River.
A total of ten meters away, scared into a cold sweat, after Yunyue and I went ashore, Yunyue was also a little surprised, it is obvious that even if we are masters in the yang world, we are still facing many unknown creatures in the underworld.
As soon as my mind moved, the Yin soldier immediately fell to the ground, Yunyue and I bypassed the Yin soldier and walked to the edge of the city wall, the city wall was more than ten meters, I kicked with both feet, and something more embarrassing happened, I couldn't jump up at all!
When I arrived at the edge of this ghost city, there were so many restrictions on cultivators, as if I had become mortal.
Yunyue looked at the top of the city wall, flicked her sleeve robe, and suddenly shot out of the long sleeves, and then she suddenly jumped up, Yunyue looked down on the city wall, I don't know why I always felt that her eyes were looking at idiots.
Bai Aya shook me off and pulled me up.
After passing the walls of the ghost town, the ghost city was silent, desolate everywhere, and occasionally one or two lonely ghosts could be seen floating by.
I suddenly remembered that with my current divine consciousness strength, it is difficult to scan the soul, although Dorjee is a living Buddha, but after all, he only cultivates the Dharma and does not practice Buddha, which is equivalent to a mortal, and the soul has not yet turned into a divine soul.
I told Yunyue about this, and Yunyue frowned and asked, "So what now?" ”
I said, "I hope the underworld isn't all idiots, I see a lot of lonely ghosts around me, and some houses with light, let's ask." ”
Yunyue and I stepped forward and saw a female ghost in white flying in, I stretched out my right hand to urge the method of soul restraint, and the female ghost in white flew immediately.
When the female ghost in white saw us, her eyes were frightened, and I asked, "Can you speak?" ”
The white-clothed female ghost frowned, as if considering what I was saying, and soon there was confusion in her eyes, and I shook my head and let her go.
"What's wrong?" Yunyue asked.
I said, "These lonely ghosts are almost unconscious, I don't know how many years they have been wandering in the ghost town, I can't ask anything, let's take a look at it later." ”
I said and Yunyue walked to a house, this house is not very big, it is a single house, near the gate of the ghost city, there is a gray willow tree at the door of the house, it should be the legendary ghost willow in the underworld.
And at the door of this house, there is an ancient lamp that emits a faint green light.
I walked to the door of the house, and my eyes were on the crack in the door and I almost scared myself to death.
The door creaked open, and out of the house came an old man, who had no pupils in his eyes, but a faint green light, and when the old man saw me, he said with a blank face, "I haven't been here for many years." ”
"Can you speak?" I was amazed and delighted.
"I've been talking longer than you." The old man said. "Come in and talk."
The old man's behavior is mysterious, I can't help but think of the old bachelor, Yunyue and I glanced at each other, walked into the house, the old man led us into a room, and then poured a cup of hot tea, and said: "The underworld is very cold, there is too much harm to the living, you first drink a cup of tea to warm up." ”
"No need, uncle, we're here to find someone, I want to ask you, did you see a little monk with some special coming to the underworld?" I asked.
"You're talking about the Living Buddha, right?" The old man said.
I was overjoyed, nodded and said, "What we are looking for is the Living Buddha, have you seen it, uncle?" ”
The old man nodded and said, "The ten entrances to the underworld, the living Buddha just appeared in the Wheel Hell, and I am afraid that it is already on the Wheel Hall at this time." ”
"The Great Hall of the Wheel?" I asked, confused.
Yunyue said: "I heard that there are ten ghost kings in the underworld, and the king of the wheel is the ghost king of the wheel hell, and the monk who has attained the Tao recited mantras and preached the scriptures before his death, so that the underworld can not use torture on the ghosts, so the wheel of hell specializes in detaining people from Buddhism, and it is also rumored that the king of the earth has sent a grand far-reaching in the wheel of hell, and the hell is not empty, and he will not become a Buddha, and all sentient beings will be exhausted, and he will prove Bodhi." ”
"Before Dorjee's soul left Changbai, he said, if I don't go to hell, whoever goes to hell, no wonder I will go to the wheel hell." I muttered.
"Come, have a cup of tea to warm up, otherwise it will be cold in a while." The old man said.
"Uncle, you and I have different paths, I don't dare to drink the tea you poured." As I spoke, I got up and looked at the corpses hanging from the top of the room, stripped naked, dripping with human oil, only to be blinded and looked like a few dripping curtains.
The tea in the quilt is actually made of blood and maggots.
"Don't drink?" The old man was a little annoyed, and his eyes were full of green.
"Well, I don't drink it." I said coldly, drawing a Maoshan Soul Talisman on my hand.
The old man behind me made a vicious sound and pounced on me, I turned around and grabbed his neck, and squeezed it hard, the old man collapsed to the ground, the green light in his eyes was immediately extinguished, and the surface of his body made a snorting sound, black smoke came out, and it was rotting.
"Looks like we're going to have to go to the Wheel King." I said.
