It is said that Ji Cheng stayed in Kunlun for less than two days and went back.

When I got home, it was just after noon, and in the shop, except for Meng Lun, who was the guard, there was only Bai Tuanzi who was dozing off on the sofa.

At least Ji Cheng is quite satisfied at this time, after all, just touch it casually, whether it is a cabinet or a desktop, there is no ash or hair.

Sitting in his wheelchair after a long absence, Ji Cheng also exhaled: people are really lazy and used to it, and suddenly they are not suitable for their bodies when they are diligent.

While thinking that he might need to do some exercise once in a while, he picked up his water cup, but his face suddenly darkened when his eyes swept over one of the commodity shelves, "Meng Lun, I remember that there is a music box here, right?" ”

He turned his head and saw that the other party had some slightly evasive gazes, "I should have said before I left that the things on this shelf are not for sale." ”

"The other party also knows this. She had a certificate that she had rented the item here before, so I rented it to her. Meng Lun touched his nose a little unnaturally, "Since I don't know how much the rent is, I told her to give the money when she comes to pay it back." ”

"You're not that kind of person." Ji Cheng frowned, "Has the personal information been registered?" ”

"Registered." Meng Lun didn't dare to skip this step even if he had the heart, so he handed the information sheet to Ji Yin.

Looking at the name on it, Ji Cheng searched in his mind for a while, and his eyes narrowed.

Meng Lun was a little nervous because he didn't know what was so unique about that music box. Even the wood used to make the music box looked like no more than loquat fruit wood, although it was stained with a somewhat cold smell. He had once opened the box, and inside it was a lake of water that looked like a starry sky had fallen into the dust, and an unmanned boat had caused ripples on it.

They can't move, and no sound comes out. If it weren't for the fact that the lease certificate said that it was a music box, Meng Lun thought it was just a beautiful decoration.

The heavy air in the shop was shattered by the ringing doorbell. The ice on Ji Cheng's face immediately melted, and a professional smile had emerged, "Welcome." "TV updates the fastest//

But it was a small figure panting with his back to the light, "Is the boss there?" ”

"Yes." Ji Ying smiled and turned the wheelchair in front of him, but his eyes narrowed when he saw the wooden box in his hand, "Is there anything wrong with me?" ”

"My grandma bought this box from here today and went back." The little boy was embarrassed when he said this, "Grandma said it was a music box, but I seem to have broken it." ”

The little boy opened the wooden box, and the boat inside had toppled and rolled down to the corner of the box, "I saw that it was silent, and I thought it was going to turn the boat, but it fell off as soon as it turned." ”

The little boy became quieter the more he spoke, and finally his eyes turned red, "I see that grandma was very careful when she took it back yesterday, so I wanted to ask if I could fix it?" ”

"Yes." Ji Cheng touched his head, "You put the boat here with me first, and when I get my things ready, I'll go look for you." ”

"Can I bring the box back? Won't grandma open it and find that the boat is gone? ”

"The boat will go back, don't worry." Ji Cheng took out the wooden boat and gently closed the box, then took out a piece of candy and stuffed it into his mouth, "But you must be safe when you go home." ”

The boy wiped his face and nodded vigorously, "I'm very well-behaved and obeys the traffic rules." ”

Watching the child leave, the warm light in Ji Cheng's eyes immediately faded, and he turned his head to look at Meng Lun, "You are in trouble, go clean up the mess yourself." ”

"Is there anything special about that music box?" Meng Lun swallowed with difficulty, "Compared to when I took it yesterday, it seems to be filled with a layer of black mist. ”

"What do you think this music box is made of? What kind of water do you think that water is? Why do you think the music box doesn't ring? What do you think is the black gas that lingers on it? "Ji Cheng is almost angry," the loquat tree nourished by the Yellow Spring, the water of the River Styx, the clockwork that turns with the power of the soul, and the black one is the breath of the dead! ”

Meng Lun instantly felt a basin of ice water pouring down from the top of his head. Although he had never been able to get close to Yellow Springs, he knew the story of the loquat tree.

The Heavenly River descends to the world with the help of rain, and then sweeps the souls of the deceased into the underground into the River Styx, and finally converges into the boundless Yellow Spring.

Floating islands above the Yellow Spring are palace buildings.

Five of the floating islands are significantly larger than the surrounding ones, and they are located in the five directions, and the floating island in the center seems to be the largest of them, and the palaces built on them are particularly tall and prosperous.

However, there are empty buildings, but no one is inhabited.

Only one huge loquat tree thrived, but the leaves on it were not green but black, and the fruit was not orange but purple.

There is no sunlight under the Yellow Spring, and it grows up on the dark sun and the dark moon that shine through the cracks between the human world and the underground. Every day as the moonlight shone on its leaves, a man would come up from the palace with a small copper kettle in his hand, and pour the dark but glowing water of the River Styx to its roots.

Then he would sit under the tree, and if nothing happened, he would sit all night.

That person was the Central Ghost Emperor. It is recorded that Zhou Qi and Ji Kang were the central ghost emperors and governed the calf mountain. Some people who strayed into Huangquan thought that these two people looked very similar and were twin brothers, but in fact, Zhou Qi and Ji Kang were just two souls living in the same body. Ji Kang was in charge of the day, and Zhou Qi was in charge of the night, in order to maintain the Yellow Springs in the central area.

Just like twins are usually motionless and still, Zhou Qi's consciousness as a later appearance is far more lively and cheerful than Ji Kang, so he especially likes to use his time to control his body and run to the ghost towns below to wander around.

Originally, there wasn't much to do at night.

Huangquan is just like heaven and earth, with buildings, shops and entertainment life. But Zhou Qi has been over for so many years, not only knows his own area well, but also often runs to other people's territory.

After a long time, he stared at the world above his head.

The people in the heavens do not touch the rivers of heaven at will, and they are not willing to touch the waters of the rivers of the rivers underground. If you want to get out of here, you can only use the gap between the realms.

Zhou Qi, who had made up his mind, began to follow the moonlight all night long, looking for the weakest interface barrier.

So that there are occasional emergencies, but the people who come in a hurry can't find the shadow of their ghost emperor.
