Chapter 40: Passing Away
Zhu Feiyue and I were stunned when we heard this, after experiencing the previous events, Wang Yan's attitude towards me changed, and patiently explained: "Everyone in the Nether Realm has their own difficulties, and you are not excluded, but fortunately, there is a Pisces Jade Plate, which allows you to temporarily skip your own difficulties, go directly to Su Yao's side, and help her pass the level as an observer, even if it is not successful, you can return alive." ”
As she spoke, she opened the jade plate on Su Yao's chest and handed me the Yin Fish: "This thing is a well-deserved treasure, especially suitable for couples to wear, Pisces symbiotis and coexist with each other, the female baby wears the Yang Fish, you wear the Yin Fish, Yin and Yang complement each other, the souls sense each other, if one person goes to the Nether Realm, the other person can also pass in at any time to help the other party." ”
I never expected that the jade card would have such an anti-heaven function, and I was overjoyed, and I wondered: "I can return at any time, what about Su Yao?" ”
Wang Yanyin smiled compassionately: "She went in first, so she must abide by the rules of the Netherworld, and only by passing the first level can she return with the help of the jade plate." ”
"Go help her."
I nodded without hesitation, took off my shirt, and after Wang Yan was ready, she began to tattoo Yin Wen on my back.
It was my first tattoo, and the tip of the needle pierced the skin, and with a light touch, the blood flowed out quickly. It hurts, but I don't care about the pain.
Wang Yan put one hand on my back, and the other hand became a little unruly, and her mouth came to my ear and whispered:
"It's rare to meet a little man like you, huh...... Emphasis on love and righteousness, life and death are separated but never abandoned? Outrageously bold? You remind me of my husband, who was very similar to you back then. ”
"If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have married him."
"It's been five years, my husband has been gone for five whole years, and I've been so lonely all these years. Staying in this dark and trendy place, there is no one to talk to......"
This scene stunned Zhu Feiyue.
I suddenly became short of breath, gritted my teeth and said, "Sister Wang...... Please don't do this, can you be respectful. ”
Wang Yan said indifferently: "In my territory, you talk to me about respect?" When the others see me, they must kneel in front of me and perform the Nine Heavens Immortal Palace salute before I can look at him, but what about you? Did I make you kneel and kowtow? ”
"I still have to help you, do I owe you?"
To be honest, I really wanted to die at that time, not that Wang Yan was not good-looking, although she couldn't compare to Su Yao, but she was also a symbol of beauty, but her real age was older than Mei Lianzhou, and it wasn't too much for me to call her aunt, I was very uncomfortable for her to mess around like this.
Moreover, it was in front of Su Yao.
Zhu Feiyue watched it with relish, and said with a wicked smile: "Sister Wang, you wait, I'll buy you a steel wool ball." ”
I turned my head and glared at Wang Yan, if I hadn't asked her, I couldn't help jumping up.
Fortunately, there were outsiders, and she didn't dare to be too presumptuous, and after withdrawing her hand, Wang Yan ate and laughed.
After a long time, the tattoo on my back was completed, Wang Yan took saliva in her small mouth and sprayed lightly on my back:
"Go back and pack up your little man, and hit the road!" Under Wang Yan's instructions, I held the yin fish tightly in my hands, sat cross-legged on the ground, and closed my eyes.
Reciting the yin text silently in my heart, my eyelids became heavier and heavier, and gradually, I lost consciousness.
I seemed to have fallen into a bottomless abyss, and familiar faces appeared in front of me:
My grandfather, my father and my sister, the bereaved brother, Su Yao......
There was a strange and elusive smile on every face, and my body was getting colder and colder, and I couldn't help but cry with an unprecedented sense of death.
I regret that I have done nothing in my life, in poverty and pain, in the muddy nightmare for 20 years, and there are too many unfulfilled wishes...... When death came, I was so frightened that my teeth chattered and my hands scratched in the void.
In the end, the whole world, along with the abyss, disappeared.
A second, or a century, has passed. When I woke up again, I found myself sitting on a road.
It's the road, that's right, the asphalt pavement, there's nothing special about it, it's just that the road is empty and there are no vehicles in sight.
I looked around in confusion, this is the netherworld? It looked so much like the world, and my location seemed to be a street in a city, with everything.
Except for people.
Judging from the surrounding buildings, this is probably located on the outskirts of the city, everything in front of me is extremely real, the sky above me is terrifying, I look at the surrounding buildings, every window is dark, the world seems to have just experienced an apocalypse.
The sky is starting to snow, no, it's paper.
Paper ash fell like snowflakes, and there was an uneasy smell of burnt paste in the air.
I picked up a piece of paper ash, it was a burned photo, the person in the photo was Su Yao, her face was burned and blurred.
Dropping the burnt photos, the sadness in my heart grew stronger and stronger. When I first came to the Netherworld, my memory was still a little confused, and I couldn't remember many things in my life. This state of confusion gradually disappeared after a long time.
There was a woman's cry in the distance, heartbreaking, I followed the cry, shouting Su Yao's name in my mouth, and after walking for a long time, I finally came to a hospital.
The hospital is three stories high, and it doesn't feel like it, but it doesn't feel like it, and it always feels like something is wrong.
There were several hospital beds in the doorway, covered with blood-stained white sheets, and on one of the beds, there appeared to be a corpse, the upper half of which was covered by the sheets, revealing only two dead gray feet.
Is this hospital the first hurdle that Su Yao has experienced?
I looked up and saw that the hospital didn't even have a name.
Bypassing the beds, I walked into the hospital lobby, where the lights were not turned on, and the light immediately dimmed, and as soon as I entered, I smelled a pungent smell of formalin potion.
This potion is used to soak corpses.
In the hall of the hospital, there were piles of beds, empty hanging bottles, and blood-stained cotton wool everywhere, all gloomy to the point of outrageousness.
I suppressed the fear in my heart, walked to the elevator, pressed it, and the elevator did not move.
"Su Yao? Where are you? ”
In the empty hospital, I cried out in despair, and echoes could be heard in the hallways.
On the floor not far ahead, there was a pool of black blood, and the blood stains spread to the depths of the corridor, and I hesitated and decided to follow the blood trails.
In the wards on both sides of the corridor, corpses could be seen from time to time, and each corpse had a strange smile on its face.
The more I walked, the more scared I became, layers of unknown fear, pressed from all directions, and it was difficult for me to breathe.
As I walked, I had to turn back from time to time, worrying if there was something behind me.
Passing by a place similar to an operating room, I saw a man, his stomach had been cut, the man was lying on the operating table, looking at me with his eyes open, he was already out of breath, but there was a happy smile on the corner of his mouth.
I covered my mouth, the bloody and eerie scene, I wanted to retch, I looked down, I followed the bloodstains, to the end of the hallway.
The bloodstain disappeared behind a door.
I had the courage to push open the door, and inside was a staircase that went down, pitch black, and I didn't know where it led.
There was a switch on the wall, I tried to press it, but fortunately, the lights in the stairwell came on, and on the guide sign overhead, there were a few large words written on it:
"Ground floor, morgue."
Blood spilled down the stairs, and I followed step by step to the basement floor.
The environment here was even more terrifying than the hall, and in front of me was a long narrow corridor, with lights flickering on and off, and the floor was strewn with miserable yellow paper money.
On both sides of the road, there are rows of wreaths, and Su Yao's photos appear on each wreath.
While walking through the bag of wreaths, I shouted Su Yao's name, and I couldn't help but cry.
With the sound of the death knell ringing in my ears, I finally came to the end of the negative floor, and pushed open the door of the morgue, and I first saw several rows of tall freezers, and in the middle of the morgue was a large pool of water, which was full of potions for soaking corpses.
There is also a dissecting table next to it.
In front of the freezer at the back of the dissecting table, a girl squatted in a white cashmere sweater with skinny jeans.
That girl is Su Yao! She was crying with her head down, her face frightened and confused.
I immediately rushed forward to hug her, but I threw myself into the air and almost hit the freezer.
"Su Yao...... It's me, Li Zhiwen! What's wrong with you? Talking? I shouted in her ear, but she couldn't hear me.
