The karmic fire of the underworld is gone.
The moment it swallowed me completely, it was gone.
Shao Wei, Chi Nong, Gu Shuoyue, Gu Wangyue, and Caixia also disappeared together.
I'm in a daze, what the hell happened just now?
It was as if all of a sudden, I dropped a heavy object, and with a gentle float, I came to a completely unfamiliar realm.
Looking around, it is no longer the landform of Jinjiling - the sky is miserable and bleak, neither very bright nor very dark, like a cloudy sky under dark clouds.
Looking up, the waning moon was still shining.
There is a river not far ahead, very wide.
I was on the south bank of the river, and on the north bank of the river there was a mountain, a mountain that stretched for an unknown number of miles, and there was no end in sight.
The black is pressing, and there is an indescribable heaviness in the eyes.
What exactly is this place?
How come there isn't a single one?
I looked at it for a while, and then slowly walked to the river, which was dark and dreary, and at first glance it looked like ink!
The black water was calm, and there were no waves at first reading, and if you didn't look closely, you could hardly see any sign of the water flowing, and the water was indeed flowing.
There is no sound, no life, this dead silence sinks people's hearts all the way to the bottom!
It's weird.
I was stunned for a while, thinking about which direction to go, but suddenly found that a group of people were faintly walking over from Hexi.
This group of people is male and female, old and young, it seems to be a family, but it doesn't seem to be a family, they are walking, talking, as if they are laughing, playing, but the atmosphere is still very strange and cold.
It's as if the words and jokes are completely out of place with the atmosphere around them.
They beat me as they passed, and when they saw me staring at them blankly, they also stopped and looked at me:
"It's a new arrival, isn't it?"
"You know?"
"Haven't seen ......"
"Let's go, let's go together?" A delicate-looking woman greeted me with a smile.
"Huh?"
I was stunned for a moment and said, "Me? ”
"That's right, little handsome brother, I'm just calling you, let's go together." The woman was eating and laughing, but the rest of the people pulled her away quickly, and complained to her, "What are you teasing him for......?"
I watched their backs fade away, a little dazed.
This group of people, all dressed in dark red clothes, in this bleak sky, is extremely dazzling, but also very strange, I looked at it for a moment, and my heart was faintly uneasy, because the style of these people's clothes looks very strange-I have never seen people wear this kind of clothes-no, I have never seen a living person wear it, the dead wear it like this kind of clothes-shroud!
Some of them still have something in their hands, and if you look closely, they are lanterns, paper lanterns.
I felt a chill down my spine.
A group of people in shrouds, carrying paper lanterns, spoke strangely, where to go.
Inexplicable fear arises spontaneously from the bottom of my heart!
Suddenly, a golden light flashed on the ground, and I couldn't help but look at the ground, only to see a golden thing on the river beach, which seemed to be a gold bracelet!
This......
Why did you suddenly have something that didn't exist just now?
Could it be that among the group of people who passed by just now, who fell into it?
I leaned down, about to reach for it, when suddenly a spirit struck me—I remembered Zeng Li picking up the Dead Coin.
Could this be a ghost?
But on second thought, this is obviously a gold bracelet, I was not mistaken!
If it's a ghost, how can my yin and yang eyes not be able to see it?
Thinking of this, I reached out and picked up the gold bracelet -
"Don't pick that thing!"
A loud shout came suddenly, but I had already pinched it and put it in my hand, and it was heavy, and it seemed to be true.
Who was shouting just now?
I turned my head to look at the sound, but I saw that there was a small boat on the river, and there was a man standing in the boat, and the boat was floating from the north bank to the south bank, that is, to my side.
I was stunned for a moment, thinking that it was too strange for this person to appear in a boat, but in my eagerness, I didn't think much about it—I had to return this gold bracelet to the group of people just now.
I turned my head and was about to call out to the people who had just walked by, but when I stood up, I saw that the group had disappeared without a trace.
I was holding the gold bracelet and was a little dazed.
"You person, I asked you not to pick it up, why are you disobedient?!"
There was another loud shout, and the boat had come to a halt, and the boatman jumped on the beach and walked towards me, talking as he went.
"This must have been dropped by someone else, right?" I looked back at the man and said, "Why can't you pick it up?" ”
"You're new here, aren't you?" The man grimaced, and said, "I'm telling you, you-hey, you, you, your appearance is so familiar, you-"
The man walked up to me and was suddenly surprised.
He stared at me with a burst of joy and shouted, "It's you!" ”
I was a little stunned for a while, looking at the person in front of me, looking at his face, vaguely, I also felt familiar, as if I had seen it somewhere.
The forehead of this life is short and flat, the chin is long, and the three stops are uneven, which is the appearance of early death, but the positive part is smooth and bright, and the Fuxi bones run straight through the roots of the mountain, which is a noble appearance!
The murderous phase of early death and the noble phase clash with each other, which seems nondescript, but they complement each other so well.
The more I thought about it, the more familiar I felt that this person was really like I had seen somewhere.
"Wu Yong, it's me!" Seeing that I was silent, the man couldn't help but come over, grabbed my hand, and said, "You forgot?" Three years ago, on the bank of the Yinghe River, Wang Shuzi drank your wine every day! ”
"Huh?" I was also surprised and delighted, and said, "It turned out to be you!" ”
Three years ago, before I was 10 years old, I had dropped out of school and was living in my hometown.
For a while, I was so bored that I didn't know what to do, so I went fishing on the Yinghe River every day.
At that time, he had already experienced Liu Wei's affairs, and he was quite in awe of ghosts and gods.
The old people in the village often say that the Yinghe River is a thousand ancient rivers, and there are countless people who have drowned, and there must be ghosts in the water, so don't go down to swim or bathe casually, even if it is fishing, it's best not to go alone, who knows what it is that catches the hook?
But fishing is just about being quiet, and I'm not in the mood to go fishing in groups of people.
So, I went alone.
However, I also consulted Uncle Wu, the oldest man in the village, and asked him if there was any way to keep him safe, and Uncle Wu didn't know if it was a joke or seriously, so he said casually: "This water ghost is a drowned person, he has been in the water for a long time, it must be cold, you salute him a few sips of wine, drink wine, it will not be cold, and if you drink too much, you will get drunk, and after you get drunk, you will definitely not want to spoil your little life." ”
When I heard this, I felt that there was some truth to it, so when I was fishing, I always brought a bottle of wine.
Before fishing, I poured wine in the river, and then prayed: "The water ghosts in the river, I'm sorry, I'm here to disturb you, I want to catch a fish quietly, you can rest, if you are bored, drink the reading wine, even if I honor you, it will warm your body." ”
Strange to say, after pouring wine in the river, fishing that day actually allowed me to catch the highest level of my life!
In one afternoon, I caught seven large carp, a total of 32 catties!
I filled a bucket and threaded a few straw ropes to carry home.
I and my parents were so happy that day.
Could it be that the wine that toasted the water ghost really worked?
The next afternoon, I went fishing again, again pouring a small half bottle of wine in the river, praying, and then fishing—and it was a good harvest!
This gave me beauty, but I did not dare to get carried away, and knew that I could not do anything too much, and not be greedy, or else it would be a curse, not a blessing—so I still had caught enough seven fish, and then I took the pole and went home.
There are so many fish, the family can't eat them all, I sent two to Uncle Wu, and let my father sell the rest.
On the third day he went down again and went alone.
In this way, I fished for a month, seven a day, thirty-two catties, and I didn't miss a reading at all!
The quality of the carp was quite good, and my father took it away and sold it very well, and it sold a lot of money - I even thought that it would be nice to be a fisherman all my life.
Until that afternoon, a month later, when I was sitting by the river fishing as usual, a man suddenly came over quietly.
