Chapter 32: The Land of the Dead
After leaving the speakeasy, Lu Shan traveled all the way north, and Daxue Mountain was in the north, and he had to pass through the country of death first.
When the boss talked about the world pattern before, Lu Shan basically didn't hear the news of the other two emperors.
The barkeeper told him that the two emperors occupied very little place, and no one knew exactly where they were.
He only knew that the Immortal Sect Emperor was sitting on a few Immortal Mountains and Mountains, and the Black Dragon Emperor only occupied a small area, which was insignificant to the Manifest Saint Emperor with a vast land.
It is also far from the other two human emperors, but the strength is not bad at all, and there are many people below.
In this regard, he is not very understanding, since there is less land, the people should be correspondingly less.
It is impossible for a small place to raise a kingdom of people.
Lu Shan walked slowly, although his movements seemed slow, but he walked a hundred meters in one step.
In the past, he didn't have this ability, but after waking up this time, all kinds of thoughts will pop up in his head.
In many cases, after trying, it turned out to be successful, like many mythical things, everything he could think of, basically succeeded.
Now he has mastered this kung fu of "shrinking the ground into inches", and he is quite proficient.
At a speed of 100 meters, he took a walk and walked to the edge of the country of death.
The soil beneath his feet gradually changed, and it was very different from other places, where the soil was darker.
Even the sky is a little darker.
He went a little deeper, until he reached a sea of flowers, and only then did he feel the difference from the outside world more clearly.
The flowers that were supposed to be colorful are all fading here.
The earth and the sky, everything seems to be dyed with a layer of gray.
Dead air covers the land.
Lu Shan couldn't help but fall into thought, there is a virtue of good life in heaven, and a place like this full of dead air cannot exist on a large scale at all.
This is a hurtful thing, but why can the Nation of the Dead exist?
It was like a mystery that haunted him.
He walked through this sea of flowers, and the original bright colors of the flowers were hidden by the gray dead air.
Even the earth was dyed with a layer of death.
It stands to reason that flowers are living things, but it is also unreasonable to exist under this dead world.
"Could it be that the Heavenly Dao has been chaotic and the rules of reincarnation have changed?" He muttered to himself.
If that's the case, then the changes over the years are really big.
"But it's fine." Lu Shan picked up a handful of soil from the ground.
"No matter how much it changes, righteousness still exists." He smiled slightly.
He put the handful of dirt back down, and then walked in the gray world, strolling leisurely.
A plank house can be seen on the hill in the distance, and various crops on the other side.
Lu Shan looked around, and happened to see an old man standing on the mountain, looking old, but his body must be flexible.
At this time, he was sitting cross-legged on a tree next to his house, and it was extremely difficult to notice, Lu Shan found that there were a few silk threads on his body.
One end was connected to the old man, and the other was connected to several dead bodies working in the fields.
Some help carry water, others help hoe the ground.
There was also a dead silk thread that stretched far away, and he looked along the silk thread, and it was connected to a small city.
Unlike other cities, this small city is full of dead bodies.
Some are buying, some are selling, and it looks like it's bustling, but it's all very bland.
The people in the streets of the town also shouted, but even if they shouted loudly, it would not make a fuss.
This may be because of the abundance of dead air, a large amount of dead air covers people's vitality.
So people lose their color like flowers.
Some people may think that such a life is dark and gloomy.
Lu Shan would have thought the same way before.
But in fact, everyone lives this natural life, some are happy, and some are happy and joyful.
They will be happy, they will be angry, they will be sad, but these thanks will become more indifferent than usual in the gloom and death.
Happiness is not intense, anger is not anger, and the easy-going wind prevails in the world.
Lu Shan thinks this is not bad, he personally likes the spirit of righteousness.
Isn't it the "middle" and "positive" he is looking for.
"The world has really changed." He didn't just say.
Death, which everyone hated originally, can also bring people a stable life, and some things that are reasonable and unreasonable have come out.
He stepped out in one step and went directly to the opposite hill, in order not to frighten the old man, he first reached the halfway point of the mountain, and then walked up.
This step was beyond the usual distance, and it really took him some effort.
"Old man." Lu Shan gasped as he walked.
The old man in the tree opened his eyes, "Young man, you're from outside." ”
"Old man, how do you know?" He gasped ten times for one sentence.
"You don't have the breath of us here, I know it when I see it."
Lu Shan observed himself, his body lacked dead energy, and he was like an ordinary person.
"I've heard that the land of the dead is not bad, so I'll take a look." Lu Shan said.
"It's just that outsiders are preaching it so much, but in fact, there are no people who are not rolling in death inside and out." The old man smiled peacefully.
Some excessive emotions were neutralized, and the old man lived here for some time, and his heart became calm.
"I've only heard that the people here are living a stable life, and I'm tired of the war outside." He said with a feigned disgust.
"Haha, we also have wars, and those few dead masters don't fight every day, but we don't use people to fight, we use dead corpses."
The dead corpse is ninety percent of the strength of the inhabitants here, and if the dead corpse is destroyed, there is nothing to kill myself.
However, the purpose of the Death Masters is not for war, they want to temper powerful corpse soldiers in war, so it can be regarded as a joke.
Lu Shan knows this.
He sat on the ground, rested for a while, and then asked, "Old man, do you know how to walk the Dead Hill?" I want to go there. ”
"Death Hill is just north away, have you heard that there is a selection of Death Qi Masters there?"
"I heard that the Human Emperor has recently made another position of Death Qi Master, and now many people are cultivating at home behind closed doors, just to wait for the selection of the Death Qi Master."
"Boy, don't you want to try." The old man was very welcoming.
Lu Shan waved his hand and said: "I just want to go and see the Death Hill, the core of the country of death, and see the world more." ”
He explained the reason, in fact, he just wanted to determine the direction, in case he went crookedly, wouldn't he get lost again.
"You can also try, young people must always think a little, my old man is not good, and I can only let the dead body go to a place so far away from the town to buy things recently."
The old man couldn't help but feel that he was old, but he was very calm.
"When you are old, you have to have some ambitions, and there is always a hope, not necessarily insisting that this must be realized." Lu Shan said.
The old man was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "Okay! My old man fought to get the two dead bodies to go to the town together. ”
Lu Shan laughed.
It is not easy to control several corpse soldiers at the same time, this is a "brain" job, once the corpse soldiers are out of control, they need to be controlled personally.
It's a waste of effort, it's not easy for the old man to let a corpse soldier go to a small city, and I'm afraid I can't bear a few more.
After that, the old man enthusiastically introduced his land to him.
The old man contracted the work of a mountain, and some places in this mountain were planted with trees, some places were used for farming, and some places were raised with livestock.
"Look at that lake, I put fry in it, and soon the little fish cubs will grow big fat fish." The old man proudly introduced him
In front of Lu Shan is a small lake, as if several paddy fields are connected together.
At this time, there happened to be a dead body spreading feed, and because of the abundant life, the dead body was well preserved, as if it were a normal person.
In the water, you can see a lot of small fish swimming in the water, and these fish are ripe, which is a good harvest.
"Awesome, old man." Lu Shan gave a thumbs up, feeling very powerful in his heart.
There are only a few things that people end up doing, and eating is the greatest.
What most people eat is the result of people's labor.
Therefore, Lu Shan admired it from the bottom of his heart.
"Old man, I have a question, where did these dead bodies come from, if there are no dead bodies in the future, how will the country of the dead survive." Lu Shan couldn't help asking.
Without the dead bodies, the survival of the Dead Nation is likely to be affected, and even these dead bodies will one day be lost.
When the time comes, there is no decision to make when the emperor is in the shadows.
"Don't worry about this, you come with me." As he spoke, the old man led him out of several mountains.
After flying with great strength, Lu Shan climbed a mountain, and the old man was already waiting for him on the top of the mountain.
Lu Shan gasped, climbing a mountain really cost half a life.
"Look there." The old man stood on the top of the hill and pointed to a place in front of him, with a rather scornful spirit.
Lu Shan looked in the direction he pointed out, and couldn't help but be a little stunned.
He finally knew why the old man didn't worry about running out of dead bodies.
For he saw in the distance a mountain of dead bodies.
Many dead bodies had built the mountain high, and the place below the mountain was already stained with red blood, and it had spread over a lot of land.
If people outside saw this scene, they would definitely be disgusted on the spot, but the dead people, who have formed an indissoluble bond with death, see indeed endless treasures.
This is a mountain of corpses in the true sense of the word, and due to the dead air, all the dead bodies show no signs of damage.
And under the warm and nourishing transformation of the dead qi, these dead corpses are more tenacious, and some of the dead corpses seem to have developed a rudimentary spiritual intelligence, walking slowly back and forth on the ground.
After that, there will be a queue to walk, and rows of dead corpses are really oozing to outsiders.
The old man's face was indeed full of relief, "These are our roots, we pick up these corpses from the outside, let them have a second life, and every corpse mountain is heavily guarded." ”
Lu Shan looked at the dead soldiers who were walking at the foot of the corpse mountain.
"Corpse, in ancient times, meant shell, in fact, it was some blood and flesh, and there was nothing to be afraid of at all." The old man smiled slightly.
"yes." Lu Shan looked at the sky above the corpse mountain, and one by one the broken souls were sent into these dead corpses.
The remnant soul is nourished and replenished in it, and the spiritual wisdom is gradually improving.
"Are the souls in this reincarnation so scarce that they want to break the whole soul?" He sighed and said.
