Chapter 303: Lethe River
Hong Ji saw that Meng Po was asking questions, and she no longer sold Guanzi, so she went straight to the point and said: "Don't hide it, Granny Meng, we also have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace." Lord Ghost Monarch was injured by the Immortal Wood Peach Sword and has been unconscious, as long as the stamen juice of Manzhu Sawa is combined with the blood of Yin to save him, so we are here to ask you to borrow a small boat to cross the river......"
"Do you want to go to the Lechuan River to fetch the flower juice of Manzhu Sawa to heal the Oni-kun?" Meng Po nodded suddenly in realization, she put down the big spoon in her hand and beckoned to us, "You guys come with me." ”
Hong Ji and I glanced at each other, and then walked behind Meng Po.
After a while, Meng Po led us to the bottom of the Nai He Bridge, and when we walked down a stone staircase, we saw a small raft tied to a stone pillar on the river bank.
Meng Po pointed to the small raft, then turned to us and said, "Red girl, this little raft will be lent to you, and it will be sent back as it is when it is finished." ”
"Oh, I see, Hong Ji has thanked Granny Meng here first!"
"Xiaoyuan, thank you Granny Meng too!" I followed the example of Hong Ji and thanked Meng Po.
Meng Po waved her hand and said indifferently: "It's just a gesture, there's nothing to thank." But I have a reluctant request, old woman. ”
"Reluctantly? Granny Meng, if you have any requests, just say it, as long as we can do it, we will definitely help you complete it. "I'm curious about what Meng Po from the underworld will do to trouble us.
"Yes, Granny Meng, you can say it." Honghime also chimed in.
Granny Meng nodded, and then rummaged through her body, rummaging for a long time, and I don't know where to take out a bunch of withered Manzhu Sahua.
She carefully handed the withered and shriveled manju sawa into my hand, looked at it affectionately, and then spoke leisurely.
"Red girl, little girl, please bring this bouquet of flowers with you, if you see a man in white in the Lechuan River, please return this bouquet of flowers to him, he will understand what he means when he sees it. If...... If you don't see it, please throw this flower into the middle of the river......"
"Oh oh, good!" I asked Hong Ji for a piece of cloth, wrapped the shriveled and withered Manzhu Shahua and put it in my pocket, and then assured Meng Po: "Granny Meng, don't worry, we will definitely help you bring it!" ”
"Well, then I'll bother the two girls."
"It's okay, Granny Meng, then we'll go first."
After saying goodbye to Meng Po, Hongji and I got on the raft.
I swear this is the first time in my life that I've been on a river on such a raft, and if I hadn't taken swimming lessons in college, I guess I'd be half scared to death by now just stepping on the raft.
Hongji swung her oars, and the small raft slowly sailed towards the center of the Lethe River.
I looked down at the dusk water of the Lethe River, and I couldn't help but feel a flurry in my heart.
The closer you get to the middle of the river, the more turbid the water becomes, and countless severed limbs float on the surface of the river, emitting a foul smell.
The powerful resentment is like a huge net attacking, if it weren't for the jade clothes on my body to ward off evil spirits, I guess I would have been swept into the river by that resentment just now.
Hongji, who was paddling, saw that my face was not good, and asked worriedly, "Xiaoyuan, are you okay?" ”
I turned my head and smiled awkwardly at Honghime, and said with a smug expression, "It's still ...... OK...... It's just that my heart is blocked in a panic......"
"It's normal, there are a lot of unjust souls gathered in this Lechuan River, and the resentment has not been dispersed for many years, not to mention you as a mortal, even we ghosts don't want to approach here, if we are not careful, we are likely to be pulled into this river!"
