Chapter 18: The Story of Little Black and Little White (1)
In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the politics were clear, the national strength was strong, and the business was vigorously developed, among which Xie and Fan had the most abundant financial resources, and at the same time, these two families have been friends since a long time ago, although they have different surnames, but they are really brothers, how good can the relationship between their two families be, the walls between their two families have been demolished, Xie and the slaves of the Fan family all listen to the words of the two families, such as the things ordered by the Xie family, the slaves of the Fan family must do what their master says, and the slaves of the Xie family must also do it seriously. Moreover, the children of the Xie Fan family learned from each other, which provided a way back for the prosperity of the two families.
In such a stable and peaceful society and a rich family, Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Fan gave birth to a son and a daughter at the same time, the boy was named Fan Yu, and the girl was named Xie Ling. When the daytime was over, when the Xie family went to see the children, they found that the two children who had just reached the full moon were sleeping together, which made the family happy all night.
Xie Ling is the only girl in the generation of Xie and the Fan family, and she looks like a white porcelain doll, so both families are particularly fond of Xie Ling, so to speak, as long as it is what Xie Ling wants, the two families will do their best to meet it. But her favorite is still playing with Fan Yu.
Because Xie Ling is beautiful, when Mrs. Xie chatted with Mrs. Fan, she said that when Xie Ling grew up, she would be sent to the palace to be a mother, but Xie Ling, who was six or seven years old, said seriously that she would not be a mother when she grew up, and she would be a daughter-in-law for Brother Fan Yu. The two ladies laughed when they said this.
As he grew older, Xie Ling became more and more beautiful, and Xie Yu was also handsome. Xie Ling and Fan Yu's ingenuity also began to emerge, but slowly, the children of the two families also began to be jealous of Fan Yu, when he was a child, the two families doted on Fan Yu because he was cute, which is understandable, but as he grew older, Fan Yu was not only smart, but also more and more favored by the family, in today's words, Fan Yu is the child of the family next door, although Fan Yu is not the next door, but the seventeen or eighteen-year-old child is belittled all day long, and it is inevitable that he will feel uncomfortable in his heart, so they transferred this discomfort to Fan Yu, who is only eight or nine years old, and his only cute sister is still sticking to him all day long, which makes the other brothers even more unhappy.
So the two families teamed up to tease him, such as sprinkling water on his bed, waking him up at night and not letting him sleep, if he wanted to talk to himself, he would stay away, over time Fan Yu became silent, only when Xie Ling was there, Xie Ling knew that these angry little faces were red, and shouted to avenge Fan Yu, but Fan Yu hugged Xie Ling and didn't let her go, saying that there was no evidence for these things, and the plot was not serious, for the sake of brotherhood between everyone, think about it.
After persuading the angry Xie Ling, Fan Yu took out two pieces of honey from the clothes on his chest and handed them to Xie Ling.
"Xiao Ling, I can't tell my mother about this matter, otherwise she will tell my mother, and I will be spanked again when the time comes" Fan Yu said to Xie Ling while licking the candy, but Xie Ling didn't listen to Fan Yu's words at all, and Fan Yu didn't care if Xie Ling listened to it or not, anyway, Xiao Ling would prepare medicine for herself at that time.
Suddenly, Fan Yu felt that his face was wet and sticky, and looking at Xie Ling's grinning mouth with two missing teeth, Fan Yu also had a smile on his face. Later, Fan Yu found that Xie Ling was secretly practicing martial arts, just to help him teach them a lesson, so Fan Yu worked hard to practice, and his martial arts improved very quickly.
But this life did not last long, the court eunuchs were in power, the people complained, after three years of natural disasters and floods, three years of drought, although the emperor had talent but was unable to return to heaven, and after the purge, the rebel army rose everywhere, and all places fell, but Xie Fan and his family still scattered their wealth to help the royal family fight against the rebel army. But the people were oppressed for a long time, and the financial resources of the two families alone did not last long, the capital was broken, the emperor hanged the coal mountain, and the rebel army burned and looted in the capital.
These rebels hated the Xie Fan family the most, because the biggest obstacle they faced was the talented and wealthy Xie Fan family. The first thing to do when entering the capital was to come to the slaughter of the two families of Xie Fan, Master Xie, Mrs. Xie and Master Fan, Mrs. Fan followed the emperor and hanged herself, the servants could run early, only some young heirs of the two families remained, these rebels did not let go of these children, burned, drowned, strangled, when they faced Fan Yu, who was only thirteen years old, they were also shocked, because this child showed murderous aura in his eyes, and after killing twenty people, he was caught and thrown into the well to drown, Xie Ling was also caught, and those people cut the corners of her mouth with knives, The wound extended to her ear and she was strangled to death. The corpse and Fan Yu's corpse were thrown together, and the last fire burned out, but what made those rebels feel terrified was that the corpses of Fan Yu and Xie Ling actually sat up and hugged each other when they burned.
When Xie Bi'an and Fan Wusu arrived, the Xie family and the children of the Fan family were only ashes left, and those rebels were crazy in this house, black and white impermanence was furious, and directly took out two golden dark coins, catalyzed the ghost energy inside, and promoted the ghosts of the dead Xie Fan and the two families to the blue clothes, and those ghosts pounced on those rebels after being promoted, scratching with their hands, biting with their mouths, and smashing with things, in short, in addition to the ghost scream, it was the wailing of those people.
In this crazy revenge, only two figures remained motionless, holding hands and looking indifferently at the vengeful ghosts, they did not absorb those ghosts, they were still green. Xie Bi'an and Fan Wusu glanced at each other, and then they didn't pay attention to them.
After these ghosts finished taking revenge, Black and White Impermanence opened the gate of the underworld and sent them to the underworld, but when it came to Fan Yu and Xie Ling, Black and White Impermanence left them behind.
Fan Yu and Xie Ling still looked at them indifferently, black and white impermanence didn't matter.
"You two little dolls don't salute when they see the two of us, why do you still look at us with that kind of eyes, why, Xie Fan and the two families taught you like this?" Xie Bi'an hung his long tongue and grinned at Xie Ling, who also had his tongue hanging out, and the corners of his mouth were bloody.
"If the two of you had come earlier, they wouldn't have died, and Xiao Ling wouldn't have been so miserable" Fan Yu hugged Xie Ling, Xie Ling cried directly, Xie Ling's face was ruined, what an unacceptable thing for a girl.
"I can't say that, I don't also drop a tongue, this girl is destined for me, and it's not that the two of us didn't come earlier, but the luck of the Xie Fan family is gone here, and we can't stop it" Xie Bi'an sighed, Xie Fan's two families have been brilliant for too long, there are Xie Fan two families in the yang world, and he is black and white impermanence in the underworld, and the luck is consumed too quickly.
However, he saw that although Xie Ling and Fan Yu were relatively young, their qualifications were really good, and he planned to train them well to take over. Without waiting for the two of them to agree, he took them to the underworld, which was full of ghosts, and only the blood moon in the sky shone on the earth.
Seeing Xie Ling, who had been crying, Xie Bi'an was also uncomfortable inside, he glanced at Fan Wuxuan, hoping that he could help. With a wave of Fan Wuxu's big hand, the scars on Xie Ling's face disappeared, her tongue retracted, and she changed back to her previous beautiful and cute appearance.
"In the future, as long as you don't take the initiative to use your ability, your wounds and tongue won't stick out" Fan Wuxuan stepped into the door after speaking, and Xie Bi'an took Xie Ling and Fan Yu to follow behind.
"In the future, Xie Ling, you will be called Xiaobai, Fan Yu, you will be called Xiaohei, and I will be called Uncle Seventh and Uncle Eight" Xie Bi'an said to Xiao Hei and Xiaobai and disappeared without waiting for their consent, Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai saw that there were many ghosts in this room who were wearing black clothes and black triangular hats, with "Catching you" written on them, and ghosts wearing white clothes and white triangular hats with "You are also here" written on them, they carried stacks of copywriting, some of them still had chains in their hands, and they left the room with iron rods.
The young little black and white stood here out of place, many ghosts cast puzzled expressions, looking at the little black and white was very uncomfortable, and after a while, Xie Bi'an came back, holding two sets of clothes, one black and one white, and after the little black and white were dressed, he flew out of the room with one in his left hand and right hand.
I don't know how long they flew, but Xie Bi'an lowered them to the foot of a large mountain, where there stood many monsters with skulls in armor and monsters with bull heads and horse heads. After Xie Bi'an exchanged two words with them, those skeleton soldiers escorted Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai into the cave under the mountain, Xiao Hei saw the words "Eighteen Hells" written at the mouth of the cave, so he struggled hard, but how could he, a thirteen-year-old child, twist these battle-hardened skeleton soldiers. He could only be dragged to the eighteen hells helplessly. But he suddenly fainted.
When he woke up, he was in a red forest, Xiaobai was lying not far from him, he immediately hugged Xiaobai, gently patted her face and called her
"Xiao Ling, wake up, Xiao Ling" screamed for a while, Xiao Bai's eyes slowly opened, and the first thing she saw was Xiao Hei, and she hugged him and cried.
Xiao Hei gently patted her on the back to calm her down, and only after Xiao Bai had cried enough did she ask Xiao Hei what kind of place this was, Xiao Hei said that he didn't know, he couldn't tell Xiao Bai that this was the eighteenth layer of hell, otherwise Xiao Bai would be even more afraid.
After calming Xiao Bai's emotions, Xiao Hei began to check the surrounding situation, he found that the two of them only had a dagger, a chain and a wooden stick, Xiao Hei handed the dagger and wooden stick to Xiao Bai, let her use it for self-defense, and he used the chain as a weapon.
There is no sun or moon here, only the red light emitted by those blood mist, Xiao Hei is holding Xiao Bai with one hand, and holding the chain with the other hand to guard the surroundings, he is worried that something will come out. I don't know how long I walked in this highly nervous way, and the surrounding situation was still that desolate.
"Brother Yu, I'm hungry" Xiao Bai pulled Xiao Hei's hand, such a sentence made Xiao Hei very embarrassed, he looked at the surrounding scenery, it was still red mist, black dead trees, there was no grass on the ground, and the surroundings were still very quiet.
"Xiao Ling, you are patient, wait for us to leave the place, my brother will find you something to eat" Xiao Hei himself felt hungry, but he still carried Xiao Bai on his back and walked forward step by step, and soon there was the sound of Xiao Bai's sleeping breathing in his ears, which made him feel some comfort in his heart.
I don't know how long I walked, Xiao Hei felt that his whole body had no strength, and his mouth was dry, but he still carried Xiao Bai forward, the emperor lived up to his wishes, walking Qin Feng began to hear the sound of flowing water, he accelerated the speed under his feet, and soon a blood-red river was in front of him, the river was turbulent, making a rumbling roar, and there were some black things floating in the river.
Xiao Hei put Xiao Bai on the bank, gently woke her up, and then walked towards the river, just when he was about to get close to the river, the black dirt next to him suddenly moved, Xiao Hei didn't react to see a bloody mouth rushing towards him, he hurriedly took the chain to block, there was a sense of restraint on his body, it turned out to be a big python lying in the dirt waiting for prey, Xiao Hei tied its head with a chain, strangled it, it also began to shrink its body, Xiao Hei came from a snapping sound, this is a contest of strength and will, Whoever loses will be reduced to the other party's food, but Xiao Hei has not eaten or drunk for a long time, and he has been carrying Xiao Bai for so long, and his physical strength is gradually exhausted, just when he is about to be suffocated, a warm liquid is sprinkled on his face.
He saw that Xiao Bai was holding a dagger and was frantically inserting the big snake, the big snake was in pain and wanted to attack Xiao Bai, but Xiao Hei pulled the chain to prevent it from turning back, and the big snake also stepped up its strength, and Xiao Hei screamed in pain. Xiaobai still poked the snake mechanically, until that part was stabbed and broken into two sections, but Xiaobai still poked the dirt frantically. When Xiao Hei saw Xiao Bai become like this, he immediately took the dagger and hugged Xiao Bai tightly, and Xiao Bai cried in Xiao Hei's arms.
When Xiaobai finished crying, Xiao Hei asked Xiao Bai to open his mouth, he lifted half of the snake body, and the snake blood flowed into Xiao Bai's mouth, although there was a very fishy smell of blood, and the taste was not good, but now it is not so particular, as long as it can live, the snake blood can also be swallowed.
After Xiaobai recovered, he took a dagger and cut off some snake meat and said to Xiaobai
"Xiaoling, we don't have fire, we can only eat it raw, don't blame my brother"
"I don't blame Brother Yu" Xiaobai obediently hugged the snake meat and ate it, a little girl like a porcelain doll, with a bloody face holding a piece of black and red raw meat to eat, and the corners of her mouth were still bleeding, dripping on her clothes, if it wasn't for this hellish place, who would feel normal?
The snake meat is very tough, Xiao Hei took the dagger and cut it into small pieces and fed it to Xiao Bai, and when Xiao Bai was full, he devoured it, a three-meter-long giant snake was eaten by two child-like ghosts Nearly half of it, and after eating and drinking enough to rest, Xiao Hei took a knife to peel off the snake skin, and wrapped some pieces of meat in snake skin and took it away, and it was really impossible to take it away and leave it in place.
They waded hand in hand across the river of blood, and found another gate on the mountain in front of them, and there was an introduction to this place by the door. It turns out that this place is dedicated to dealing with extravagant and wasteful ghosts in life, there is no sun, moon, no concept of time, and no food and water, but the ghosts here will feel hunger and thirst, they will not be starved to death, thirsty to death, only by fighting can they live, eating other people's flesh, drinking other people's blood to live, until they find a way out, it is considered liberation.
