Chapter 35: Beyond the Styx
Over the mountains, over the mountains.
Long Jiuyao took Mo Ying's hand and stood on the Gobi Desert, looking at the waves surging in front of him and the endless sea as far as the eye could see.
"Is this the Stygian Sea?" Long Jiu looked at the Stygian Sea from afar, his heart was a little excited, he tossed for months, countless dangers, and today he finally saw the hope of going home!
"Little brother, I'm sorry!" Mo Ying swiped Long Jiuyao's palm with her index finger and said to herself: "It's all because I'm useless, I can't help you, but don't worry! When I return to Miaojiang, I will definitely pester my old man to teach me immortal arts, and help my little brother beat them all over the ground to find teeth!"
"Hehe, Sakura is the best! Let's find a way to find the Gu God and the Witch God first. Long Jiuyao said perfunctorily and walked forward along the shore.
Mo Ying followed him inch by inch, grabbed his arm and said, "Little brother, I'm sorry, although I don't like Qing Ji, I don't want her to die, don't be sad!"
"There's nothing sad about it, I haven't had much intersection with her, it's just a little regrettable. ”
"But I still feel sorry for you, if I didn't want to find the Gu God to save Miao Jiang, you wouldn't have accompanied me to the Styx Sea, let alone owe so many favors to the Immortal Gu, blame me!"
Hearing this, Long Jiuyao felt a twitch in his heart, hesitated for a moment and grinned: "I came to the Styx Sea, not just for you, I ......"
"I know that the little brother is for our whole Miaojiang, the little brother is the best! After we return to Miaojiang to get married, I will learn to do laundry and cook, be a good wife and mother, and give birth to a lot of dolls for my little brother, hehe!" Mo Ying kept smirking at Long Jiuyao, and the smile made Long Jiuyao feel distressed.
Since arriving in the Stygian Sea, Mo Ying has become extremely well-behaved, like a child who has done something wrong, trying her best to please Long Jiuyao.
When Long Jiuyao saw Mo Ying's appearance, his heart hurt as if he had been cut by a knife, and the girl in front of him who was dedicated to herself seemed to be ...... Something was perceived.
"Good. ”
Long Jiuyao took Mo Ying's hand and walked aimlessly on the shore, as if looking for the traces of the witch god, and it also seemed to be ...... I want to spend more time with this stupid girl.
"The plum blossoms of Sanjiu are red with snow all over the mountain, the shadows of the depressed branches, and the crescent moon shines on the sleeping ......" Mo Ying suddenly hummed a Northeast folk song, and the crisp and ethereal voice suddenly spread all over the shore: "The heavy snow closes the door and then sends the God of Wealth, the fire burns the people who can't admire it, the frost flowers are full of windows on this good day, and we will make a lifelong ......"
"Hehe, how can you sing the ballads of my hometown?"
"I don't know what a folk song is, I just often see my little brother sitting alone in front of the door looking at the moon and singing this song, so I secretly learned to sing, little brother listen!"
When Long Jiuyao heard this, he pulled Mo Ying's arm and trembled slightly, stopped to look at Mo Ying, and stammered, "Xiao ...... Sakura, its ...... Actually, I ......"
"Big brother, come on, there are two boatmen here!"
Guo Dakuan interrupted Long Jiuyao's words in time.
Long Jiuyao found Guo Dakuan not far ahead, and at this time, Guo Dakuan was sitting on a wooden boat on the shore talking to two middle-aged men.
Long Jiu looked at the two middle-aged people, with the same nose and the same mouth, who were twins.
The only thing that could distinguish the two was that one of them had white hair, like snow, and the other had black hair, as black as ink.
The black-haired middle-aged man asked Long Jiuyao: "Boy, do you want to find the Gu God and Witch God of Miao Jiang?"
"Yes, I heard that the two Miao Jiang gods live in seclusion on the other side of the Stygian Sea. ”
"Then you have to think about it, there is no shore in the Stygian Sea, and if this boat rows out, you can't stop if you can't see the other side. ”
"Hehe, it's okay, it's a big deal for everyone to die together. Long Jiuyao smiled softly and pulled Mo Ying to step onto the wooden boat.
"Let's go!"
Two middle-aged men propped up their oars and rowed the wooden boat away from the shore.
A lonely boat drifted with the waves on the calm sea, and an hour later, the shore had long since disappeared in front of everyone's eyes. Guo Dakuan, who was originally excited, also became a little anxious.
"I said big brother, what bullshit Miao Jiangshen is, it's all fake! I don't think we can go back. ”
Hearing this, Long Jiuyao looked at the two middle-aged men, and bared his teeth and said, "He scolded you." ”
"You kid is very sharp-eyed, since you can see it, let's talk in another place!"
After the white-haired middle-aged man finished speaking, a sudden strong wind suddenly rose on the calm sea, and the choppy waves suddenly overturned the wooden boat.
Long Jiuyao fell into the sea and choked on a few mouthfuls of water, grabbed Mo Ying's hand and fell to the bottom of the sea, his eyes gradually becoming blurred......
"Ahem......"
Feeling the sound of insects and birds in his ears, Long Jiuyao sat up suddenly. Looking at the surrounding mountains and flowing water, the fairy aura is swirling, as if falling into the sea just now is a dream.
Turning around, he saw Mo Ying and Guo Dakuan lying on either side of him, slowly opening his eyes and sitting up, Long Jiuyao breathed a sigh of relief.
"You're finally awake. ”
Not far away, there is a towering tree, its turquoise branches and leaves are lush and green, emitting a faint green light.
The two middle-aged men sat in the shade of the tree, still dressed as the boatman, and did not reveal any breath in their bodies.
Long Jiuyao walked over, first arched his hand at the black-haired middle-aged man and said, "Junior Long Jiuyao, I have seen the Gu God Zhantian Lord!"
The black-haired middle-aged man gave Long Jiuyao a slap and reprimanded: "You kid is very stupid, can't you see that he is the Gu God?"
Long Jiuyao glanced at the white-haired middle-aged man, and thought to himself that except for the difference in hair color, the rest of you are the same, if I can see it, it would be weird!
Long Jiuyao was helpless, and walked in front of the white-haired middle-aged man and arched his hand: "Junior, Long Jiuyao, I have seen the Gu God Zhantian Lord!"
"Smack!"
Long Jiuyao was slapped again, and the white-haired middle-aged man withdrew his arm and said, "Why are you stupid and stupid! You believe him when he says I'm a Gu God?"
"Enough! Fool me, do you think Lao Tzu is a bully?"
As soon as the words fell, an extremely powerful aura suddenly erupted from the two middle-aged people's bodies, covering the sky and shaking all directions, and Long Jiuyao was almost scared.
The two middle-aged men squinted at Long Jiuyao, and said at the same time: "Boy, on the other side of my Stygian Sea, do you still want to set up a stick?"
Stand...... Stick?
Long Jiuyao felt that the two guys in front of him were even more hooligans than himself.
"Don't dare, don't dare, just now the villain had a momentary temperament, and please don't be surprised by the two adults!" Long Jiuyao was beaten now with his hands, and he had to be humble.
"Hmph!
After a while, Long Jiuyao received a few more slaps, and finally figured out that the white-haired middle-aged man in front of him was the witch god Zhantian, and the black-haired middle-aged man was the Gu God Zhantian.
Of course, the two of them look the same, as long as they want to find fault and beat Long Jiuyao, they can change their identities at any time.
"Bring your friends with me. After speaking, the witch god looked at Mo Ying: "You wait outside, if you dare to come in, I will spank you." ”
"Oh~"
Mo Ying looked at the old ancestor of Miao Jiang, her expression was a little awe-inspiring, she stood in place with her little hands behind her back and lowered her head, kicking the stones under her feet.
The witch god led Long Jiuyao and Guo Dakuan through a forest and into a cave.
There is an altar in the depths of the cave, which exudes a faint aura that forms a vortex on the altar.
"Back then, the Western god of time and space set up an altar here, which could reverse the power of time and space and travel to the past or the future. With the fall of the god of the sky, the power of the altar only works once every thousand years. You're lucky, today is the day when the power of the altar is in operation again. I know that you are from the Hereafter, and I will help you with spells to get you where you want to go. After the witch god finished speaking, he turned around and smiled slightly: "But help can't be in vain, you see...... Do you have to show it?"
