Chapter 0834: Hades Origin
The vast underworld is actually quite different from myths and legends.
In ancient myths and legends, there are eighteen layers in the underworld, which are used to punish and carry different karmic consequences in the human world, which is full of fairness and justice.
But in fact?
This place is even darker than the human world, and if it weren't for the Heavenly Dao in the underworld presiding over justice, I'm afraid this place would have been completely chaotic a long time ago!
This is a different dimensional space that carries the ghost, and the deceit and darkness in human nature are even more vividly interpreted here.
This is also the deep understanding I had after entering the underworld, so now I have basically given up the underworld that I learned through myths and legends, and sincerely consulted Cao Yuan along the way to relocate this unique world.
According to what Cao Yuan and I said, I finally have a new understanding of this underworld.
This is a vast world, it is said that it is the Emperor Xudu personally opened up a different dimensional space, how big is its territory, there is no accurate number until now, of course, no one goes to the egg pain to survey how vast the underworld is, it is a different dimensional space, the place where the Yin people gather, just in the most central position of this different dimensional space, there is a sea of flowers on the other side, there is Huangquan Road, and there is also a bridge and reincarnation road, with this line as the center, radiating to the left and right sides, and finally forming a huge circular area, This area is where the people of the underworld move.
But outside of this circular area, it's a wilderness!
"In fact, Hades is incomplete."
When he first said this, Cao Yuan looked at me very seriously and said to me: "This is also what I heard the master say, when the Emperor Xudu opened up the underworld, he only opened up a part of the space suitable for the Yin people to live, because he was unable to open up the rest of the area, which caused the Yin people in the underworld to basically only be able to operate within the scope opened up by the Emperor Xudu. As for the places outside the scope, strictly speaking, they basically do not belong to the underworld, and the environment is completely different from the underworld! ”
As for how different the method is, Cao Yuan can't say, because she hasn't been there either, but she has heard the Sanqing Daoist talk about some bits and pieces in this regard - there is a barren place, there is nothing, full of vastness and empty desolation, so the handsome ghost kings of the underworld habitually call the place that the Emperor of Xudu has not opened up as a wilderness!
And all of this probably has to start with Huangquan in the end!
Before Emperor Xudu came to this different dimensional space, the ecological landform here was exactly the same as the surrounding wilderness, and the underworld did not exist at that time, and there was only a yellow spring rushing on the vast and desolate land.
Yellow Spring is the only water source in this extradimensional space, and it is also a very evil Yin Dragon Water Vein!
Emperor Xudu is said to be a very, very high attainment in feng shui, he almost recognized at a glance this kind of Yin Dragon Water Vein that only exists in legends, but has never appeared in the world of the doorway, and it is precisely to see the majestic power of mountains and rivers contained in this Yin Dragon Water Vein, Emperor Xudu moved his mind.
He wanted to build the largest and grandest ghost breeding site ever.
This ghost breeding place is the underworld!
To put it bluntly, the underworld is actually a super ghost-raising land created and condensed by the art of feng shui, but this ghost-raising land is too big, too vast, and almost a world of its own, so it is called the underworld!
However, why did Emperor Xudu use the art of feng shui to make such a big brother raise ghosts, Cao Yuan didn't know, and the Sanqing Daoists didn't talk about it.
But I know that the turtle son of the Sanqing Taoist knows it in his heart, he holds the Xudu Order in his hand, and obviously has a friendship with the Emperor Xudu, how can he not know why the Emperor Xudu wants to get out of the underworld, a land for raising ghosts? Such a big place, such a vast and majestic means, just listening to it can make people's hearts surge, the reason is afraid that people of that era know, but with the passage of time, the truth was buried in the long river of history.
It's a pity that the old deflated calf of the Sanqing Daoist doesn't say anything, and we have no choice but to accept his fate.
Emperor Xudu was an extremely hands-on existence, and after he had this idea, he immediately began to use the power of the majestic mountains and rivers of the Yin Dragon Water Vein to create the largest ghost breeding land in history. He knew very well that the yin qi of a Yin Dragon Water Vein was limited, and he couldn't let such a vast piece of space in another dimension condense a rich yin qi to form a ghost breeding land, so he could only circle a place for operation.
Therefore, Emperor Xudu drained the Yellow Spring and re-excavated a river with the water of the Yellow Spring, which is the Lechuan River!
To put it bluntly, the Lechuan River actually originated in the Yellow Springs!
The Lethe River flows around the underworld, drawing the ground as a prison, setting the scale of the entire underworld, and locking the yin qi to prevent the yin qi from leaking out.
Then, Emperor Xudu built the ghost gate, opened the Huangquan Road, planted the other side of the flower, erected the Sansheng stone, repaired the Nai He Bridge, and built the Wangxiang platform......
These are all to stabilize the feng shui of the underworld, so that the yin energy inside circulates by itself, so that the underworld, the largest ghost breeding place in history, has formed a completely independent world!
It can be said that although the underworld belongs to this dimensional space in this dimensional space, it is incompatible with this dimensional space, but it is better to say that it is a completely independent world in this dimensional space, similar to a country within a country!
So, this hell and the wilderness around it are completely different concepts.
The underworld gathers all the yin qi of the Huangquan Yin Dragon Water Vein, but the wilderness is not full of yin qi, the two are in the same dimensional space, but they are completely different!
This is the general pattern of the underworld.
However, although the wilderness is called wilderness, it is not really nothing.
It is said that for endless years, there have been many Yin people who could not bear the punishment of redemption and secretly escaped from the control of the ghost king Yin Shuai, and in order to hide, they finally hid in the wilderness.
This time we are going to the Yellow Spring Water Prison, and we must first find the Yellow Spring upstream of the Lechuan River.
As for the location of the Yellow Spring Water Prison in the Yellow Spring, the Sanqing Daoist couldn't say clearly, and he hadn't been there, but he could feel that in the middle of the Yellow Spring, there was a huge underground palace, which imprisoned many powerful existences, and the breath was amazing, and in those amazing breaths, there was the breath of my mother Liu Chengcheng.
But how to enter the Yellow Spring Water Prison, this is a problem!
The Sanqing Taoist himself had never been in, but he gave me a message - just rob the tomb and go to the door to pick the lock and break the Yellow Spring Water Prison!
The Yellow Spring Water Prison is a tomb!
When Emperor Xudu built the Yellow Spring Water Prison, he once said that although the underworld was a place for him to raise ghosts, he wanted to make the world awe-inspired, and worship it as one of the Three Realms, everyone must be in awe, as long as anyone dares to offend the majesty of the Netherworld, they will all be put into the Yellow Spring Water Prison, and if they enter the Yellow Spring Water Prison, they will not be released at all, it is a death row, and it is a tomb prepared by the Emperor Xudu for those who offend the majesty of the underworld, so it is simply built for those prisoners according to the specifications of the Yin House.
About this, die here, never be reborn!
And tomb robbing, this is what I am best at, Sanqing Taoist said, when I got there, I saw Feng Shui, as a person who touched gold, if I couldn't find the Yin Mansion that entered the Huangquan Water Prison from there, then I could really die!
Although, this "tomb" is not difficult, it was set up by Emperor Xudu, and all kinds of terrible means are used in it, so that the people locked in it will never have a chance to come out!
This method is extremely ruthless, but when he uses it on my mother, I have hatred. It is true that it was my mother who broke through the cycle of reincarnation and wanted to step out and grow up with me, and my mother broke the rules, so she naturally had to act according to the rules, which is normal. But I'm not a reasonable person, I've been saddled with endless infamy, and I've become a demon in the mouth of the world, what else do I say, hurt the people I love, I naturally hate it, so this time I also swore that I must poke a hole in this yellow spring water prison for it!
Our group came to find the Yellow Spring through the Lethe River.
After leaving Baijiangtai, all the way east, returned to Huangquan Road, mixed in the frenzy of those passing Yin people all the way to the end of Huangquan Road, at this time, the sea of flowers on the other side disappeared all of a sudden, and in front of us was a rushing river, which was tumbling with rolling black water.
That's the Lethe River.
In the Lechuan River, there are many yin people, all of whom are idiots who have great obsessions in their hearts and refuse to enter reincarnation, and the ghost king is handsome and refuses to take them in, most of them are suffering and suffering in the Lechuan River. Some of them can't let go of the love in the world, thinking about the lover of the previous life, and refusing to drink Meng Po soup, so they will forever sink into the river, bearing the erosion of the yin and evil qi of the Yin Dragon Water Vein, just for Meng Po to light a bitter mole on the back of their necks after a thousand years, and then take the bitter mole to the next life to find their lover. There are also those who can't let go of family affection and affection...... In short, most of the people who are immersed in this Lethe River are idiots in the world, and even when they are suffering in pain, they still have a bit of stupidity, and those faces are condensed together, and finally form the human world in the Lethe River!
On the Lethe River, there is a huge stone bridge.
That's the Nai Ho Bridge.
However, in front of the bridge, a broken boulder stood there, and many Yin people gathered in front of them to wave the past and present lives, which was the Sansheng Stone.
After crossing the Nai He Bridge, it is Tutai Wangxiangtai, and in the back, there is a road with no end in sight, which is the road of reincarnation.
Twenty years ago, my mother, Liu Chengcheng, was on that road.
In front of this Sansheng Stone, I stood for a long, long time, a little confused, but also a little sad, there was a decisive back left in my mind, and in a trance, I seemed to see a white-haired woman like snow twenty years ago staggered into here with a long sword, and fought the personal soldiers of the Emperor of Xudu, and finally drank hatred.
How pathetic!
"Let's go!"
In the end, it was Cao Yuan who pushed me, and finally woke me up from my trance, she seemed to have guessed what I was thinking, and comforted me softly: "This time we are here for your mother, don't be melancholy, let's go." ”
I nodded silently and got back on the road with them.
Of course, we didn't take the Nai He Bridge, and there were only two options for the sun to cross the Nai He Bridge.
Drink Meng Po soup, kill yourself in this life, and go to reincarnation.
didn't drink Meng Po soup, faced the personal soldiers of Emperor Xudu on the road to reincarnation, and was finally picked to death.
We couldn't afford to look for abuse, so those of us here turned around and headed west along the Lechuan River.
After we had traversed the endless land, we finally came to the wilderness, where there were only desolate mountains and a crumbling Lethe River, and there was nothing else, the world was groggy, and the earth seemed to have no end.
Our group continued westward along the Lethe River.
One day......
Two days......
……
We walked for a long, long time, probably at least ten days away, and then, at last, we came to a watershed, here, all of a sudden in front of us are mountains, no vegetation, but the mountains are very majestic, the Lechuan River flows through the mountains, and then later, the Lethe River suddenly widens, a thousand meters wide, and the water is more ferocious!
No, this place can no longer be called the Lethe River, but the Yellow Spring!
