But really speaking, it seems that I haven't passed through the ghost gate on my two trips.

"Damn, how did you get to the ghost gate?" Liu Kaixuan stuck his waist, spat out, and muttered: "Then what we walked just now shouldn't be the road of the dead?" ”

"Dead man's road? What do you mean? I asked.

"Generally, after a person dies, he has to pass through the Ghost Gate, and before the Ghost Gate, there is a large section of the dead man's road. Because people don't believe that they are dead for the first time after they die, even if they come to the underworld, they don't know that this is the underworld, so this dead man's road is prepared for these souls, and in the process of walking the dead man's road, every scene they have experienced in their lives will flash in front of their eyes one by one, until the moment before his death, when these scenes have flashed, they can also see the ghost door closed. ”

"Do you mean that the way to the dead is to make them believe that they are dead?" I thought about it, and it seemed like that's what it meant.

"That's right." Liu Kaixuan nodded and said, "However, generally the yang soul does not need to take the road of the dead, because the road of the dead is prepared for the soul that has just died, but we have gone for a while, don't we think we are really dead, right?" ”

"What?" My mind didn't turn for a moment: "Think it's a real dead person?" What will happen? ”

"Yes"

Before Liu Kaixuan finished speaking, the door of the ghost gate was pushed open with a "boom", and three people with thick armor walked out of the door, holding three slender spears in their hands, reflecting the miserable white cold light.

"You three come with me"

The taller man beckoned to us, then turned and walked back into the city.

Liu Kaixuan and I glanced at each other, his face was quite ugly, and he whispered: "Sure enough, we were treated as dead people!" ”

"What will happen?"

"In the underworld, I can't get out."

Damn?! How did we become dead? Why can't you get out of the underworld?

I'm only in my twenties! I haven't found a girlfriend yet! I haven't had enough of the delicious food! I haven't even enjoyed the good world, why did I become a dead man for some reason?!

"This bad man!" As soon as I stretched out my hand, I stopped the tall man and smiled, "Is there a mistake?" The three of us didn't die! ”

"Not dead?" The man turned his head, his face was hidden in the face, and he didn't know what the expression was, but judging from the tone, it should be full of mockery: "Before the ghost gate is closed, no one believes that they are dead, do you still want to walk the road of the dead again?" ”

"No, no, no!" Liu Kaixuan stepped forward at this time and said with a flattering smile: "Poor master, let's not take the road of the dead anymore, go with you, can't I go with you!" ”

The man nodded, turned and walked on, while the other two followed us with spears in hand, as if they were afraid that we would run away.

While walking towards the city, I leaned over to Liu Kaixuan and whispered, "Why are you crazy?" Doesn't it mean that if you follow up, you will never be able to get out again?! ”

"And what do you have to do?" Liu Kaixuan also said helplessly: "Let him send us to the starting point of the road of the dead again, and then go again, so on, there is no end?" ”

Although I can't accept the fact that I am a dead man, what I can't accept even more is walking on the endless wilderness, I am such an anxious person, I guess sooner or later I will go crazy!

When I entered the city gate, there were also some dilapidated houses, and there were few people in the city, but no matter how few, they were better than in the wilderness.

We followed the man's footsteps through the ruined houses and finally came to the other side of the city.

There was also a large gate, and I thought he was going to lead us through it, but instead he led us up the stairs next to it.

On the wall, only one man stood with his back to us, and after bringing us to the wall, the man in armor retreated silently, leaving only a few of us on top.

I squinted, why did the back in front of me seem a little familiar?

Just as he was thinking, he slowly turned around.

"Erniang?!"

I didn't expect it to be Cui Erniang!

He glanced at me, also let out a long sigh, and said with a wry smile: "Shen Huai, you are here." ”

"What's going on?" Of course, I had a stomach for him to ask, such as why the amulet had lost its luster, why he was here, and why we were on the way to the dead first, and why we were considered dead.

But before I could ask these questions, he interrupted me with a wave of his hand, and said, "I know what you want to ask, I'll tell you about this later, now something has happened in the underworld, and I am also seriously injured, if you go in now, there will be problems." ”

"Change? What happened? I asked, "Did you give me those two amulets because you were seriously injured?" ”

"Yes." He nodded, "I've cut off any contact with other places and sneaked to the ghost gate, and now everyone thinks I'm gone." ”

"What the hell is going on?"

"I'll tell you slowly." Cui Erniang said: "First of all, it is the change in the underworld. In fact, a long time ago, Yan Jun left the underworld and has not returned until now, that is to say, there is no one to take care of the underworld now. At first, it was nothing, but after a long time, some ghosts began to have some bad thoughts, and the first one to change was Cui Yu. ”

"Judge Cui?" I paused for a moment and asked, "What's wrong with him?" ”

Cui Erniang didn't speak, her eyes turned on Zhang Kai and Liu Kaixuan respectively.

The two men were also self-aware, and they said hello to me and waited for me below, and went straight down the wall.

When they left, Cui Erniang continued: "I suspect that there is the meaning of that spider spirit behind this, Cui Yu doesn't know when it started, his personality became eccentric and irritable, and he crossed out the people who should not die in the book of life and death several times, and later even began to privately arrest the officials in the underworld, and it is unknown where the officials who were captured by him went, because they never came back." ”

"Cui Yu is going to be reversed?"

"That's pretty much it."

I asked again, "Then don't you have the means to inform Yan Jun?" He can't let the underworld go unchecked, right? ”

"There is indeed a way to inform Yan Jun, but it is useless, there is no news at all." Cui Erniang said: "I sacrificed my life to snatch the book of life and death in Cui Yu's hand, and the same price I paid was that I was seriously injured, and now I can't use any strength at all. As he spoke, he glanced at me: "When we left, Hong Aya was hit by Cui Yu, and now she should be dying, right?" ”
