Chapter 596: Ten Temples Road 3
This road of the Ten Palaces was built by the power of the Ten Palaces Yama when Huangquan was born, and it can be regarded as the protection of the people of Huangquan in the world.
There is a reason why the people of Huangquan will not die even if they are smashed into flesh, because the people of Huangquan are all born at the end of this road, in the Yellow Spring, and before they are born, the people of Huangquan will come here in the womb of their mothers to accept the baptism of Huangquan and accept the protection of Huangquan.
Once the shelter is completed, they will be led by their respective parents to return to the city, learn all kinds of knowledge, and wait for the time to take over the mantle of their parents.
And the people of Huangquan, as long as they are born here, no matter how many parents give birth to, all the children are branded with the mark of Huangquan from the day they are born, and they must faithfully perform the task of collecting souls when accepting the mantle of their parents, which is the same as 9999 souls.
What's even more terrifying is that the people of Huangquan all know their lifespan, accurate to the second, and the people who used to have Huangquan, when they collected enough 9998 souls, they just didn't accept the last soul, and planned to let themselves live for a few more years, but Yin Cao won't let you do this, and will directly arrest you when your yang life ends, and you will be sent to hell to be punished.
All the way, Lan Qiaowei was talking to me about Huangquan, and I don't know why he told me this.
"That is to say, our people in Huangquan, once we are born, our lives have been given, and if you don't want to complete this mission, you can only let the ghosts eat you directly, so basically, you will not exist in this world."
I swallowed, took a sip of water, and the strange old man walking in front of me sighed.
"Being able to know when you will die, in fact, thinking about it, it's quite tangled, young man, looking at your appearance, you're quite optimistic, I've seen a lot of people in Huangquan, basically lifeless."
"Hehe, old man, I will die at the age of forty-four, I already knew it when I was sensible, since it has been decided, why should we bother with memorialism?"
I looked at Lan Qiaowei quietly, and he didn't seem to be bothered by knowing when he was going to die.
"Then there will always be people who can't stand the pressure, go crazy, old man, I've never seen anyone in Huangquan suffer from madness."
Lan Qiaowei smiled.
"There are still a lot of people with mental problems, but the mental abnormality is caused by the improper soul position, or one of the three souls is missing, but the people of Huangquan will not have this problem, the soul and body are under the protection of the power of Huangquan, just like a computer, once there is any problem, you can restore it with one click."
I saw Wu Zuo's dull face, but he still smiled.
"I used to struggle for many years because I knew the date of my death, but now it doesn't matter."
I feel more and more that the people of Huangquan are not easy, and indeed as the strange old man said, most of the people I have seen in Huangquan seem to have no hope for life at all, like machines, faithfully performing the task of collecting souls, and have been completely indifferent to the life and death of others.
"By the way, Mr. Lan, are you working under the subordinates of the first palace?"
I asked, and then Lan Qiaowei stretched out a hand and opened it, revealing a rootless finger.
"Five Hall Yama?"
Lan Qiaowei nodded, in an instant, in my heart, my impression of him improved, I didn't expect Lan Ruoxi to belong to the fifth hall, which can't help but make me think back, last time, black and white impermanence could have caught Lan Ruoxi to the Yin Cao, but because of Zhong Kui's relationship, they gave up.
We have made several turns, the sky has already darkened, we are still climbing the mountain, more than an hour has passed, and the gray-white sky indicates that night is coming.
"If you can't walk, let me carry you."
Zifeng and Huangfu Ruofei were at the back of the team, she had been following Huangfu Ruofei and taking good care of her, but Huangfu Ruofei shook his head stubbornly.
"No, Sister Zifeng, I can walk by myself."
In desperation, Zifeng had no choice but to continue to follow Huangfu Ruofei slowly.
"Come on, girl, sit down and rest when you're tired."
I shouted and continued to walk forward, this will, there were no words for a while, Ji Yun'er and Yin Qiujian walked in front, more than ten meters away from us, they didn't look tired at all, Ji Yun'er laughed and talked about the TV series with Yin Qiu from time to time.
I don't know how far it is, Wu Zuo said that he had only walked half the way, and it would take more than an hour to reach the foot of the mountain.
I walked for a long time, I didn't feel tired, I didn't need to take a breath, Hu Tianshuo looked a little tired, he smiled, as if he had something to say to me, slowed down, I slowed down.
"Qingyuan, when you go to Huangquan, you have to be very careful, I always feel that something is wrong."
Hu Tianshuo muttered quietly, and I nodded.
"I guess that Lan Ruoxi may have been brought out to his father from a very young age, as for the reason, I think, after you go, go directly to her mother, remember, Qingyuan, remember the mission you went to, when there is no exact news of Lingshui, no matter what happens, except when necessary, don't turn your face with the people of Huangquan."
I nodded, indeed, my cousin's matter is also very important, I almost forgot about it, and if it really starts, it won't end well.
Looking at the surrounding forests, I have an indescribable feeling, I always feel that this forest, as if there is no boundary, always reveals a majestic atmosphere.
Hu Tianshuo helped his glasses, and then said to me seriously.
"Recently, we have also received information that a large number of people from Huangquan have returned to Huangquan, and I don't know what the people of Huangquan want to do."
I nodded, and Hu Tianshuo smiled meaningfully and glanced at me.
"Although that's what I said, Qingyuan, if the time comes, if you are aggrieved, you don't have to care so much, I think back then, someone robbed my wife with me in front of me, I didn't say a word, I beat someone directly, and almost fired from the police academy."
I smiled awkwardly.
"Are you alright, Tianshuo, why don't I help you carry it?" I looked at Hu Tianshuo really tired, he seems to be busy with the upcoming internship recently, very hard.
Then Hu Tianshuo smiled, took off the sleeping bag he had just bought in the shop at the foot of the mountain, and the food he had eaten, and threw it to me, I carried it on my back, and recently I felt stronger and stronger, and after walking for so long, I didn't feel tired, and I was very relaxed.
After walking for about an hour, it was almost 9 o'clock, and I finally saw that at the end of the cement road, their figures had long since disappeared, and there was an open place surrounded by green plants and grass growing in front of me, and from time to time there were boiling human voices and radiating light.
I finally walked up, and at first glance, there were tents and giggling people, this place, as many as four or five football fields, was relatively flat, but the first thing that caught my eye was two steep peaks, and in the middle of the two peaks, as if they had been split, revealing a crack.
It would be dark, and I couldn't see it very clearly, but I could hear the running water clearly.
I looked around for them.
"Over there."
Zi Feng said, came behind me, I turned my head, and saw that Huangfu Ruofei was already on Zi Feng's back, sleeping quietly, I smiled and said thank you, Zi Feng just shook his head.
I don't know why, she was wearing a purple and black sportswear, and when she came out, she was still wearing a brown mask, which she never showed up, and this mask was always worn in Hongmao's company.
Gradually, we came to the right side of the wind system of the two peaks, and at this time, I saw a person, it was the old man of Naraku, who belonged to the cat, he and Yin Qiu were sitting on a log, Ji Yun'er was standing aside, the three guys were talking and laughing, I looked at it with some surprise, and then walked over step by step.
"Oh, young man, you're here too, I'll call you Qingyuan."
I nodded hurriedly, I always have a good impression of this old man of Naraku, during the Ten Thousand Ghosts Banquet, he took action to stop their battle between Yin and Qiu, and when the Dirty Ghost Team and the Ghost Rakshasa stood up to be furious, he also stopped it, and told me a lot of things.
"Grandpa, are you here?"
"Oh, that's right, Qingyuan, my old friend of Huangquan, invited me to be a guest."
My eyes widened in amazement, Huang Quan's old friend, didn't he live for at least a few hundred years?
"Brother, don't be amazed, in the major sects, there are some old monsters who have lived for hundreds of years, hehe, like kittens, aren't there two around you?"
I sighed, followed Yin Qiujian's eyes, and looked over, it was swallowing wine, and the strange old man, they were helping Sima Ying arrange the sleeping bag, after all, we are human beings and need to rest.
In the afternoon, the people from Huangquan who walked away didn't know where they went, and I didn't see any of them.
"Let's rest for the night tonight, Qingyuan, you don't have to rush for a while."
The old man of Naraku said with a smile, and at this time, the old man who swallowed the wine and the strange old man kept looking this way, and they all stared at this old man.
I put my things down and went over to them to help out with the wine.
"That old man, that's amazing."
As soon as I passed, the strange old man said, and he nodded his head as well.
"When I became a monk, Naro was already the strongest in the art world, including now, I'm afraid it's the same."
I've also heard a lot about Naraku, but what I care about the most is that the fate of their Naraku people is even more tragic than Huangquan, but I look at this old man's appearance, he doesn't look like a bad person, he and Yin Qiu have been together for decades.
"Uncle Yin, Ji Niangniang, I didn't expect the two of you to come to Huangquan, this time, it's ......"
"Accompany Zhang Qingyuan to rob relatives."
I looked at Yin Qiujian and Ji Yun'er with resentment, and the two of them said in unison.
