Chapter 174: The Ghost Gate
I struggled to open my eyes, and it was dim and I didn't know what was shining, so I could probably see the scenery around me.
It looks like it's in a house, and it looks more like a long-abandoned house, with many notches in the walls.
Zhang Kai and Liu Kaixuan put their big faces in front of me, their eyes were full of nervousness, and when they saw me wake up, Liu Kaixuan breathed a sigh of relief and said: "You are really weak, thanks to you wearing a cloak that protects your soul, otherwise I am afraid that you will be scattered directly!" ”
I grinned, put on an ugly smile, and asked in an unusually hoarse voice, "Are we in the underworld?" ”
"Well, it's in the underworld." As soon as he talked about this topic, Liu Kaixuan's face turned straight and said: "However, there seems to be something wrong with this underworld, it is different from when I went to Yin in the past, and we did not go through the Yin and Yang Gate, but came directly to this place." ”
"Do you know where this is?" I stretched out my hand and sat up, looking left and right, "Why are we in the house?" ”
"We don't know where this is, anyway, when we arrived at the underworld, we were already on the edge of this house, and we saw that you were still unconscious, so we dragged you into the house." Zhang Kai replied: "Our place seems to be a ruin. ”
If I have only been to the underworld twice, then looking at Zhang Kai's appearance, it is estimated that he has never come down once, and at this moment he still has a little dazed eyes and a trace of panic.
This emotion can be seen at a glance, and it is not something that can be concealed by pretending to be calm.
I nodded, and slowly stood up, feeling only a slight pain in my lower back and chest, as if I had been hit by something hard.
When I stood up, I found that the glowing one was a very thick candle, placed in the corner of the room, and the candle flame flickered, as if it was going to be extinguished at any moment.
Originally, I didn't know where the cloak I was wearing had gone, so I asked Liu Kaixuan, and he only said that he didn't see the cloak when he found me, and he thought that the cloak was only to protect my soul and not to be brought to the underworld.
"Childe, the cloak is still on you." In my mind, Tianyao said to me: "Just look at your shoulder, you will know." ”
Hearing this, I glanced down at my shoulder, and there seemed to be a thin, translucent layer hanging on it, and I couldn't see a specific shape, and it was easy to penetrate it when I reached out and touched it.
"Anyway, you're wearing a cloak now, you don't have to worry, if I'm not mistaken, the cloak will only manifest when necessary, right?"
It's also to blame that I didn't ask Xiao Ling carefully before I came down, so now I don't even know how to use this cloak, which makes me very embarrassed.
After a rough discussion, the three of us decided to go out and have a look, at least to see where this place was.
But just when the three of us were about to go out, I suddenly found that the talisman Cui Erniang gave me had lost its luster!
Originally, I hung one of the two talismans on my waist, but just now I glanced at it, and suddenly found that the talisman had lost its luster, and the round beads on the original talisman had turned dark gray at the moment, and it looked like a stone!
I hurriedly took out another amulet, and the result was the same!
I was a little dazed for a while, why did Cui Erniang's talisman become like this all of a sudden? Xiao Ling's words suddenly appeared in my ears at this moment, he said that I have heard some rumors recently, and it seems that no one has guarded the Yin and Yang Gate recently, is Cui Erniang really killed?
With a frown, I pushed the door open and walked out of the room.
Outside, the sky looks extremely turbid and oppressive, and beyond the ruins, there is a wilderness.
"I'm lost, where is this?" I glared, why is this so different from the last time I came to the underworld? And without the red aya, I don't know how to go!
I looked at Liu Kaixuan and asked, "That, didn't you say that you came down to find the sub-box, do you know where the sub-box is?" ”
"I know where to ask, but I don't know where we are now" Liu Kaixuan said with a bitter face: "Look at this place, there is no desolate ghost shadow, and there is no place to ask for directions."
The corners of my mouth twitched, isn't this the end!
"Why don't we go for a walk?" I thought about it for a while, and said, "It's not a way to wait here, it's better for us to go out for a walk, and if we don't know which ghost brother we meet, we can ask for directions." ”
"That's all it can be." Liu Kaixuan nodded and said.
The three of us chose a direction that was relatively pleasant to the eye, raised our legs and walked over.
Out of the ruins, walking on a wilderness, I inexplicably had a strange feeling in my heart, as if the three of us were three small fish in the vast ocean, and this wilderness was the sea.
I don't know why I had this thought, but I felt very uncomfortable in my heart anyway.
"Childe, now try to go to the right." I don't know how long it took, Tianyao suddenly said in my mind: "If you go to the right, you should be able to see something." ”
"Why go to the right? Do you have any senses? I asked.
"I'm a ghost, so I'm more sensitive to yin here, although the yin is very heavy in this wilderness, it seems that the yin on the right is heavier." Tianyao said: "If Gongzi goes to the right, he may be able to see something, but it will take a long time to walk." ”
"It doesn't matter, as long as there is a direction." Of course, I don't care about the fact that I have to walk for a long time, after all, walking blindly like this is also walking, and it is good to have a direction.
Liu Kaixuan and I said a word, so the three of us turned around and walked to the right.
Time seems to have no concept here, I have never walked such a long way since I grew up, but fortunately, this is in the underworld, and I don't feel tired, just keep walking like this, it is really grinding my stamina, and several times I feel irritable and want to hit someone.
I don't know how long it took, but anyway, when my fiftieth mental explosion exploded, a city loomed in front of me.
I almost cried when I saw the price of the city, and I thought I couldn't get out of this place.
Liu Kaixuan and Zhang Kai too, when they saw the city, they were even speechless with excitement, the three of us glanced at each other, and trotted all the way to the city.
Seeing that the city is getting closer and closer to us, above the huge city gate, there are three words written on the iron painting silver hook.
Death? It stands to reason that the ghost gate should be before the Yin and Yang Gate, why does it appear here?
In the past, some people often said: "The ghost gate is closed and walked for a while", which means that he almost died, and he should have passed the ghost gate before entering the underworld.
