Cutting through the forest at the foot of the snow, climbing up the Smoke Mountain, near the summit of the North Peak there is a platform protruding from the mountain wall, and there is a tavern on the platform.

Yes, that's right, taverns. On the top of a high hill that is also a few dozen miles away from the nearest gathering point.

At this time, the tavern was bustling, and the ...... It's not the kind of bustle of ordinary taverns, it's the kind of chickens flying and dogs jumping.

Beneath the chandelier near the west wall, four men were desperately holding down a man who was pale and had only black and green feet, a doctor in a dirty leather apron—let's call him a doctor, though he looked more like a butcher, sawing the man's legs off the knees with a saw knife. I don't know if the saw blade was too dull or the white guy's bones were too hard, the scalp-numbing saw bone sound lasted for a long time, and one leg had not been sawn off.

On the other side, six people gathered around a table, each with a pot of wine, drinking wine and chatting, as if there was no leg sawing tragedy happening next to them, but someone doing a foot massage.

Suddenly, the door of the tavern suddenly opened, and a woman dressed in black walked in with a woman in white on her shoulder. Completely ignoring the crowd in the tavern, she walked straight to the bar, threw the woman on her shoulder on the bar like a sack, and then said to the fierce-looking bartender, "Two bottles of Blacktail." ”

The meaty-looking bartender looked at her, didn't speak, just turned around and pulled out two square bottles from the wine cabinet and placed them on the bar.

The woman in black picked up a bottle, bit the cork with her teeth, pulled out the cork with a "pop", drank a few sips of "goodong, goodong", and then reached out and pinched the cheeks of the woman in white, and put the mouth of the wine bottle directly into her mouth, and poured it through. Obviously, the wine kept pouring from the bottle into the mouth of the woman in white, and her corpse-like body did not move at all, but not a drop escaped from her mouth.

When all the wine in the bottle was emptied, the woman in black opened another bottle of wine, and after taking two sips, she squirted the wine in her mouth on the face of the woman in white with a "poof".

In an instant, the wine that sprayed on the face of the woman in white burned violently! At the same time, the woman in white also suddenly let out a heart-rending scream and rolled down from the bar!

However, the flame that burned on her face disappeared in an instant, as if it had never existed.

At the same time, the screams in her throat stopped abruptly as if they had been suddenly cut by scissors. Her eyes were grayish and white, and her whole person was as still as a wax figure.

Since the woman in black carried people into the tavern, whether it was sawing legs, being sawed, or chatting and drinking around the round table, they all stopped what they were doing and stared at her. At this time, she leaned over and took out a wine glass from the bar, poured the wine in her hand into the glass, took a big sip, and then looked around the bar, and finally stopped at the six guys at the round table, and asked, "Tell me, did he run out?" ”

"Wait a little longer, Bai Bei will be at the door."

Among the six people at the round table, a tall and thin old man who had always turned his back to the bar and never looked back said slowly, his eyes seemed to have the whites of his eyes scattered and chaotic. His voice sounded like a knife had been stirred on his vocal cords, and he spoke with the cacophony of the wind blowing through the torn plastic sheeting.

After only a few seconds of pause, the door of the bar was opened again, and with the mountain breeze came in a handsome man in a top hat and a straight suit. He hooked his fingers over the trench coat over his shoulders in one hand, and pulled a trolley case with the other—a trolley at one end and wheels underneath, except for the size of the crate, which would be held in a tavern door that was so wide that it would be double-opened.

"Bai Bei, have you fucking changed your moving company?" The woman in black looked at the box pulled in by the man in the suit and asked angrily.

What the people around didn't expect was that Bai Bei, who had always been a bartender when he saw a woman in black, didn't reply for the first time, only sighed and said: "It's not, I really 'moved' this time." ”

After speaking, he parked the "trolley box" at the widest place in the middle of the bar, and his fingers didn't know what mechanism he pressed, and there was a sound of the mechanism, and the trolley box broke down at once, and in a blink of an eye, it was lined up on the ground into five long strips the size of door panels, and on each one, there was a person lying on it! Dead person!

Because, on everyone's head, there is a clearly visible bullet hole!

4

At this moment, even the well-informed bar crowd couldn't help but pay all their attention.

"Holy shit! Your whole family?! ”

Sitting at the outermost of the round table, one of the nearest big-headed gnomes jumped out of his chair in surprise and rushed to the bodies and shouted.

"I'll fuck your whole family! Green forest, don't scold the street......"

Bai Bei scolded at the dwarf, snatched the wine jug in his hand and poured a large sip of wine, and then sat on the original dwarf's seat as if suddenly deflated, and said discouragedly: "Yes, my whole family." ”

5

"This is really like you, look at this eyebrow, this eye...... Even this look is as annoying as you are......"

The dwarf named Green Forest circled around the five men as if he were looking at some strange object, and finally stopped in front of the youngest man, and reached out and pinched the man's face: "Short oily ho, still panting." ”

Turning around, the dwarf asked Bai Bei, "Awake?" ”

"Well, he's young, wake him up and ask." Bai Bei said weakly.

"Gotcha!" The dwarf rubbed his little hands, gestured in the air a few times, and then slapped the young man on the forehead with a "snap". I saw that a green light suddenly appeared on the young man's face, and then the green light drifted away, and his body sat up suddenly like a spring, and at the same time coughed violently!

6

"Alas, Lao Bai, this grandson is clever enough, just like that, he has already observed us all by coughing."

A white and fat guy on Bai Bei's left took out two cigars, handed one to Bai Bei, took one in his own mouth, and looked at the young man with interest while lighting the fire and said.

"Where is this? Who are you? ”

After secretly observing under the pretense of coughing, the young man got up from the ground with some difficulty, changed from sitting to squatting, and did not ask the nearest dwarf, but stared at Bai Bei, who was sitting at the round table and lighting a cigar a little farther away.

"Huh? Don't you go to see your parents and uncles first? ”

Bai Bei spat out a puff of cigarette and asked in a calm voice.

"Don't look, they're all dead." The young man gradually calmed down from his cough, his expression was cold, and his voice was cold.

"Are they all dead?"

Bai Bei stood up, walked up to the young man, spat the smoke of his cigar on the young man's face and said, "What about you?" ”

"Me? I ......"

The young man's body shook suddenly, and the expression on his face changed from fear to shock to confusion. His hand trembled and touched the center of his eyebrows, until the first section of his index finger was stuffed into the shocking bullet hole in the center of his eyebrows.

"I ...... I'm dead too. I'm dead too. Here it is, here it is ......"

Bai Bei stared at the young man's eyes and said in a calm tone.

"Yes, your family is dead, and so are you. Here it is......"

“……”

"Hades."

……

7

"People die, especially for those of us who have been dead for many years, and we have long understood that death is far from the end. So I don't take it seriously when I know you're going to die, just die, with me here, you come down, help you a little bit, and live better than above. It's just ......"

Bai Bei took a big puff of cigar, slowly exhaled the smoke again, his eyes narrowed, his snow-white teeth clenched together, and he made a few ugly grinding sounds, turned his head and said to the young man: "After a person dies, the body stays in the yang world, and the soul comes down to the underworld. But you have even come down with your physical bodies, and this is not an ordinary abnormality. ”

"It's abnormal, we'll help you figure it out after this happens. Now we're all here to find out if that guy has run away. You'll put it aside. ”

The woman in black looked around, and there was obvious impatience in her voice: "Who saw him last?" Hurry up, did he run out? ”

"It's me."

The strong man in the leather pocket turned around and said angrily, "I saw with my own eyes that that guy was hit by the combined force of the four kings and was shattered. ”

8

"But, but, that guy has always been scheming, will the soul take the opportunity to slip away?" At the round table, a little Lori asked while holding a wine jug.

"At that time, there was burning water below him, the four kings on the top, front, left, and right, and behind him were soul eaters."

"Night Hitomi, you will be the boss in the future." The white fat man said to the woman in black without smiling.

Inside the bar, there was a sudden dead silence.

"Master...... Grandfather. The young man asked Bai Bei in the smallest voice possible, "What are you talking about?" Why can't I understand? ”

Bai Bei replied to him in the same small voice:

"If you don't understand, listen to it, and you'll understand in a few hundred hours. The time in the underworld is not the same as the above algorithm, and the life span is not calculated by the sun and the month. So if you don't want to be destroyed so quickly, you have to be patient. You see, these guys in this house are all about the same level as Grandpa and me. The guy we were talking about, 'Blue', was originally our boss. Eleven of us guys are also a bit famous in the underworld, and they are called 'pickers', and I am white...... In the underworld, even if you are a hundred times lower than us, it only takes one thought to destroy you. So from now on, if you don't want to lose your soul, just keep your mouth shut, just listen and watch, don't say anything, don't do anything. ”

The young man nodded, shrunk back, and obediently shut his mouth.

The bar was silent again.

For a long time, it was Baibei who was the first to break the tranquility:

"If Hongtu is the last person to see Blue, then I should be the first to meet him, I'll say it first. The obliteration directive that we should have heard at the same time. I was settling down at the time, ready to find Kwai Po to calculate the direction and lead these dead ghosts in my family. The moment I received the erasure order, I just entered the door, and I didn't expect that the guy was actually at Kwai Po's house, and he also kidnapped the guards who stayed behind. ”

"Uh...... Is that the thing that is so domineering? Kidnapped by, by Blue? The white fat man's originally invisible little eyes turned into mung beans.

"Alas...... Who would have thought? The garrison lord, the strongest person who could be heard of by anyone in the foothold, was actually tied up like a weak chicken, with a head full of bags, a blue nose and swollen face, and trembling. A wry smile appeared on Bai Bei's face, and he shook his head slightly and continued: "And that guy Lan, just like a real villain, directly sealed Kwai Po's home, forcing Kwai Po and her group of Dharma protectors to hide on the ground with their heads in their hands, and let him punch and kick ......"

"How did Kwai Po behave when she saw you go in?" The woman in black, known as the "Night Pupil", asked Bai Bei.

She ...... She crouched to the side with her head in her hands, moving me out of the way. ”

Bai Bei replied through gritted teeth.

"That guy Lan, didn't you let you go in the face of our 'color picking'?" The blind man interjected.

"I guess I let it go. He didn't kill in a big way, but just cut the spiritual horn on the head of the garrison, gouged out the palm eye of Kwai Po, and cut off my ice and thunder finger. Bai Bei stretched out his left hand, and it was obvious that his left index finger had been amputated by a section, and the break was neat.

"What does he use to cut the horns of the Spirit? Dig into the palm of your hand? The dwarf asked in a trembling voice.

"Hundred Bone Blades." Bai Bei couldn't help grinding his teeth again, and said with fear on his face: "This guy Lan, it is estimated that he was ready to break the net from the beginning, and directly took out the Hundred Bone Blade." ”

"Doesn't the Hundred Bone Blade exist as the Eye of Suppression in the Ice Hell? Not to mention how he stole it, isn't he afraid of ice hell bombing the prison? The night pupil asked with a deep brow.

"I'm afraid Blue's purpose is to blow up the prison." The thin blind man replied: "I got more news than that, six o'clock ago, the six prisons of the eighteen hells collapsed, countless demons escaped, and half of the underworld was in chaos. ”

10

"Rumor has it that King Jizo said that blue is the greatest threat to the underworld. This is a confirmation of this statement. Bai Bei said with a dejected face.

"According to the blind man, if he can make the Six Prisons collapse, he won't just have a hundred bone blades in his hands?" Night Hitomi asked.

"I didn't see anything else, when he first stepped on the face of the garrison, cut off his spirit horn, and then used the tip of the knife to cut out the palm of Aoi Po, I thought he was leaving, but this bastard didn't say hello, and cut off my ice and thunder fingers with a single sword, leaving a whole ten sealing beasts, and ran away with a wicked smile."

Bai Bei looked at the position of his severed finger and said a little distractedly:

"Then, when we finally broke up the sealing beast and came out of Kui Po's house, the whole thing was settled, and it was already a pot of porridge."

11

"The safest place in the whole underworld has suddenly become the most chaotic city. Hundreds of Stygian Currency Firms were attacked, and the Seal Beast that was originally guarding the outer city was used by that guy to get to Aoi Po's house by some unknown method and used to seal us. And the city is burning everywhere, and the always majestic garrison is crying like a girl......" Bai Bei's original indignant demeanor suddenly couldn't hold back, "poof", and laughed.

"Laugh at your ancestors!" The dwarf green forest scolded Bai Bei, jumping three feet high:

"Now that hell is in chaos, the underworld is leaking everywhere, and the fierce beasts of the realm forest mountain are ready to move, this catastrophe is down, not to mention whether the old Wang Ba of the earth will settle accounts with us after the autumn, before the entire underworld is calmed down, we can't go anywhere except for this huge snow foothill! After so many years of hard work, all the foundations are wasted! All waste! ”

12

The blind man's fingers interlaced back and forth, still in a cold and emotionless tone, echoing in the bar:

"So far, the information I've gotten is that Lan should have gotten something amazing, and this thing can even cause chaos in the Three Realms. So much so that Lan did not hesitate to detonate hell, did not care about causing the fierce beasts of the Realm Forest Mountain to go crazy, did not hesitate to use half of the soul of the underworld as the price, did not hesitate to completely turn against us, and did not hesitate to face the Eighteen Yaksha Sea, the Nine Demons, the Eight Great Bodhisattvas, and the Four Kings...... So, what exactly did he get? ”
