By the River Styx, the boatman was sitting on the bow of the boat smoking a dry cigarette, still wearing a hat, a robe, and a captain's costume. It's just that the stiff back makes me feel a little bad in my heart.

When the boatman saw us coming, he busily knocked his pipe on the board, and then he put the pipe into his waist and came over with his penny.

He smiled from afar: "I haven't seen the king for a long time, the king is in good health, where is the king going today?" ”

I smiled and said, "Thank you for the old man's memory, this king is going to the gap of life and death." ”

"Okay, come up, slow down!"

After getting on the boat, I took a closer look at the boatman and found that his complexion was very bad. Although he was also black and thin before, he was in good spirits, but now he looks like he lacks that spirit.

However, he is one of the three strange people of the Six Realms, and he is also a master, so I can't ask him about his physical condition.

I took the bone whistle out and asked, "Old man, do you know this?" ”

The boatman took the bone whistle and looked at it, and suddenly his expression froze, "Your Majesty, isn't this the bone of that old guy in the urn?" How did you make a bone whistle? ”

I nodded, pointing to the rune on it, "Does the old man know the Heaven and Earth Gathering Spirit Rune?" ”

The boatman stroked his white beard, nodded and said, "Naturally, I have heard that this Heaven and Earth Gathering Spirit Talisman is different from the Gathering Spirit Talisman of cultivators, this is the Spirit of Heaven and Earth." ”

"Oh!"

The dwarf really didn't lie to me, which confirmed my suspicion that the appearance of the dwarf was no accident.

In my memory, he appeared three times: once in the ghost market where he bought and sold the Soul Slayer Blade, and once in Qi Huai's paper figure shop, he asked me to exchange the paper man for the Soul Slayer Blade, and he didn't take the paper man afterwards.

The third time was when he was in the ghost market, and he generously gave me the bone whistle that had taken him several years of hard work, and it felt like he was just going up the pole to give it to me.

So I said, "Old man, do you know a dwarf?" ”

I gestured at the height and said, "It's just so tall, and it looks relatively ordinary." ”

The boatman thought for a moment and hesitated: "What the king said is a retreat? ”

"Retreat? Ben Wang had never heard of such a person. ”

The boat family smiled and said, "This person has always been elusive, not to mention that the king doesn't know, even if it is the Ten Palaces of Yama, they have only heard of it and have never seen it. ”

"Oh, can the old man tell this king more about this refuge?"

The boatman said that the reclusive man had always been haunted, so no one knew how old he was or what his abilities were.

However, the Retreat is best at using a variety of materials to make magic weapons, and they are all of the highest quality. It is rumored that the ten ancient artifacts have a lot to do with him.

However, he didn't enter the world much, and he usually looked for someone to be destined after making a good magic weapon, so although he was famous all over the world, there were very few people who knew him.

And I was very fortunate to have two magic weapons from him.

When I heard the boatman say this, I guessed that the refuge was not telling me the truth. Since he can make all kinds of magic weapons, how can he not recognize them as the bones of the urn?

He must have meant to give me this bone whistle.

I feel that this is like someone sending a pillow when you are sleepy, and someone giving a steamed bun when you are hungry, will it be too deliberate?

Not long after, we had already arrived not far from the gap between life and death, and the boatman still stopped the boat, arched his hand and said, "Little Lao'er is waiting for the king here!" ”

"Thank you, boatman!"

Shen Yuexi twisted a trick and flew directly to the gap of life and death with me.

It was as fierce as ever, with a foul smell, bones everywhere, and flies and maggots that could never be killed.

I didn't rush to leave, I stood on the skeleton and blew it with a bone whistle, wanting to see if I could find the remnant soul of the urn again, and to ask what kind of existence the Heaven and Earth Soul Suppression Order was.

As soon as the whistle sounded, the buzzing flies here were gone, and even the breath changed.

No, everything seems to stand still all of a sudden.

"Click......"

Suddenly, there was a crisp sound, and the mountains of bones that had been piled up all over the place slowly collapsed, turning into ashes little by little, at a speed that I could see with my naked eye.

I was stunned, the bones all over the mountains, piled up into mountains, turned into ashes, including those flies and maggots, and disappeared in an instant.

After these bones were reduced to ashes, the entire chasm of life and death was restored to its original appearance: rugged mountains, dry rivers.

And the position where we are standing at this time is actually in the valley, that is, the bones all over the ground not only fill in the valley, but also cover the mountains and rivers.

For millions of years, I don't know how many lonely ghosts have died here.

It took Shen Yuexi a long time to close his O-shaped mouth, and said to me tremblingly: "Your Majesty, the breath here has become normal, do you feel it?" ”

"Nonsense, this king is not a sensory failure. Let's go, since this place is back to normal, then there will be no more life and death slits in the Yin Division, and turn around and lead the water of the Styx River over to form a river. ”

"If there is no gap between life and death, is there no need for Heaven and Earth Soul Suppressor?"

“……”

I haven't thought about this problem, and when I think about it, I don't think it's right, the three strange people of the Six Realms: the soul suppressor, the soul attractor and the ferryman, both of them have been hidden, and the ferryman is left.

But the boatman's complexion looks ......

The more I think about it, the more wrong it becomes, why are the people of Da Yin all these years all the famous people in the Six Realms: Qi Huai, Su Weng, Yin Yang Jun, Ghost Immortals, etc., everyone knows about it.

And these people are undoubtedly the absolute only existence, and there is no one to replace them.

If there is no one in the soul of the world, no one in the Six Realms is extradited, and there is no fishing in the North Underworld, will it be ...... next No one can cross the River Styx?

"Your Majesty, we have arrived, what are you thinking?"

When Shen Yuexi called me, I realized that I had unknowingly walked to the critical monument with him, so I put away my wandering thoughts.

The mountain gate on the other side of the Demon Sect was filled with blood mist, and I didn't know what the big deal was. However, with the powerful enchantment of the Critical Monument blocking it, this blood mist did not permeate.

I didn't bother to go up to investigate, so I walked to the critical monument, and blew it with a bone whistle, and the barrier suddenly opened.

I was stunned, "This Retreat really has some ability, and he can open such a powerful critical monument with only a few runes carved on a bone in the urn." ”

Shen Yuexi smiled and said, "Powerful urn, he is one of the three strange people of the Six Realms. However, he was able to become so powerful, thanks to the king's blessing. ”

"Huh?"

"Does the king still remember that you had thousands of palaces to watch current events back then?"

"Didn't you order it to be built?"

"That was before, and later the civil officials and people also built many palaces for you to worship you, and you felt that the merit was too much, so you casually rewarded it to the urn that was going through the most cruel catastrophe at that time. These merits not only dissolved the power of the Heavenly Tribulation, but also became the power after his ascension, so his cultivation was the highest among the three strange people. ”

I really don't have any impression of this, but Su Weng himself mentioned that I had been kind to him, wasn't it an unintentional move?

It's no wonder that when I met him later, he would take care of me like that, and sure enough, he gave people roses, and his hands were fragrant.

So I educated Shen Yuexi earnestly and said: "Shen Qing, in the future, you will have to learn to behave a little bit with this king, be kind to others, and maybe you will be rewarded when you will be rewarded in the future." ”

He didn't say anything.

I looked outside the critical monument, stepped halfway in, and said, "Shen Qing, you are waiting for this king outside." ”

"Doesn't the king need his ministers to go in and protect you?"

"Do you think this is a flood beast, it's just a book made of spirit stones, don't worry! Stay outside and look at the Demon Sect Mountain Gate, don't make any trouble. ”

"Yes!"

Once in the barrier, I grabbed a bloody head from the ground, because it could break through those mirror illusions.

The last time I ranked the "Hades", I went straight to the last page, which is the current record of my life, dating back to when I was Hades a thousand years ago.

There were no other creatures in the critical monument, so I put my hand directly on the illusion, only to see a flash of white light, and the appearance of a little brother actually appeared on the mirror.

Dressed in a dark brocade robe, wearing a crown of black jade hair, his angular face was full of doting smiles.

He said warmly: "Qi'er, you are finally here." ”

"Little brother, you ......"

I was surprised to reach out and touch my little brother's face, there was a real feeling, he blinked slightly, and turned his head to kiss me in the palm of my hand, I also felt it.

I was immediately overjoyed, "Little brother, this, what's going on?" ”

"Before the Heavenly Emperor was chaotic, I left a soul in the Heaven and Earth Soul Suppression Order left by the urn, thinking that after you got the Soul Suppression Order, I could accompany you."

“…… You've been planning to use yourself to repair the Optimus Town Soul Pillar, why don't you tell me? ”

"Didn't you tell me too? You hate me so much, you are so angry with me, but in the end you still choose to kill yourself. Qi'er, thank you for your affection for me. ”

I immediately burst into tears, "You idiot, you left me alone after all, you are so bad." ”

"I won't leave you, life is so long and boring, how can I be willing to let you go alone for the rest of your life in the future, I will accompany you, accompany you to the earth and the sea is dry."

“……”

I was speechless, with this remnant soul by my side, it was really too strong compared to nothing. I don't ask him to be with me day and night, but I want him to talk to me when I'm lonely.

The little brother's spirit did not appear for long before it dimmed, and he looked at me infatuated for a long time, and turned into a conical black wooden pestle, engraved with golden runes.
