Chapter 44: Wangxiangtai
When I heard the old prostitute say that I was taken to the Yin and Yang Road, I suddenly felt a little scared, after all, it was not a place where the living should go, and if I was trapped inside, it would be really miserable. Luckily, though, I was clever enough to crack the wrath ghost's scheme and not be lured inside.
Now that I think about it, I really have to thank the urine on my body, if it weren't for this pee, it would really be hard to say.
The old prostitute reminded me a few more words, the second floor where we are now is a place where the dead and resentful souls are trapped, so don't trust any sounds, including the real objects that can be touched by your hands, because everything may be fake, at least some things should not exist in our world.
Then the old prostitute handed me the flashlight in his hand, I was instantly moved, I really didn't expect that as soon as I said the danger of darkness at that time, the old prostitute could give me his flashlight, so that I have a bright sense of security, which is definitely worth my touch.
Who would have thought that after the old prostitute handed over the flashlight, she said, "You take it first." Then he wiped his hands with my clothes, and said as he wiped, "I said that the ground is full of water, and it turns out that it was all your boy's urine, come on, give it back to you." ”
I didn't care about the old prostitute doing this, but I did care about being pressed to the ground by him just now, because the urine on the ground was absorbed by my clothes. The smell of urine all over my body, presumably even if there is a big grudge now, they have to avoid me, otherwise they will all be smoked by urine and cannot be reincarnated.
"Benefactors, where shall we go next?" Old Liu Tou asked.
Lao Liu Tou asked this question, which is exactly what I wanted to ask, although I have escaped from the Yin Yang Road, but now I have completely lost my sense of direction, and I no longer know which end of the road is the direction from which I should go.
The old prostitute was silent for a while, and said: "Let's hold hands this time, don't separate anyone, I'm in front, Xiao Qi is in the middle, Lao Liutou is behind, don't let go and follow me." ”
We follow the old prostitute's method, hand in hand and ready to move forward, although this method is good and will no longer let people be lured away by isolation, but there is also a great drawback, once the old prostitute is lured by the angry ghost, then he will lead us to danger together. Maybe my worries are not important, the important thing is that I hate the hand-to-hand between men and men, I don't like this feeling, of course, I still prefer to hold the beautiful little hand of a young and beautiful girl, only then will I feel the beauty of life.
I now deeply feel that there is a problem with the old prostitute's arrangement, not because of his method, but because of his arrangement, which makes me extremely unhappy. He actually let me walk in the middle, holding him in front with his left hand, and pulling Lao Liu Tou behind with his right hand, when my hands touched the hands of these two people, I had a strong sense of resistance, and this feeling definitely reminded me that what I like is still women.
Although I didn't like this feeling very much, I still carried it out according to the old prostitute's request. The old prostitute didn't walk fast, and I could feel that he was groping his way forward, and even though he had a flashlight in his hand, the light was insignificant.
"Zhanzhao, Zhanzhao, can you hear me?" The old prostitute asked softly as she walked forward.
In this way, the old prostitute walked all the way and asked all the way, and walked forward seven or eight more steps, and finally heard the echo of the little wolf, but this voice did not sound parallel to us. It wasn't until the little wolf answered a second time and said, "Come up," that we really heard that the little wolf was above us.
"My day, Zhanzhao, where did you go up?" The old prostitute immediately asked the little wolf above.
Listening to the old prostitute's questioning, I knew that this guy was walking in front and didn't find the stairs to go up. "You take a step forward and you can touch it." The little wolf replied.
Immediately afterward, I felt the old prostitute take a big step forward, and first I heard a thud in my ears, and then a miserable scream, "Oops! The old prostitute immediately let go of the hand holding me, and then muttered and scolded: "Fuck, why didn't this Nima tell me something, my nose." ”
I immediately reached out and slowly touched forward, not to mention, in front of the old prostitute, I touched a slanted log. I took a small tentative step forward, only to feel that this was the staircase that Xiang Lu had gone up, and what I had just touched was the handrail of the staircase. I pulled the old Liu head behind me and said to the old prostitute: "Are you dead?" If it's not dead, then go up first and then it hurts. ”
"My god, even if you are fucking dead, I will not bring death." The old prostitute spoke rudely again, and took the lead up the stairs.
This is also a wooden staircase, but it is different from the first floor to the second floor because this staircase is spiraling, and it is not a circle, it is an angular square, a bit like climbing an ancient city wall.
The further up I went, the brighter it became, and when I was about to go up to the third floor a few stairs, my eyes instantly became bright, and all the black fog stopped here. Looking at the black fog here, it feels like climbing to the top of the Yellow Mountain and seeing the white clouds, but what you see here is a dark fog layer with a strong ghostly atmosphere.
I immediately saw the little wolf holding a hand power station waiting for us at the staircase, the old prostitute came up and also shone the flashlight to the third floor, only to see a few narrow stairs in front of me, I stood in place with the old prostitute and looked at it for a while, and I didn't see a reason, the old prostitute opened her mouth and asked: "What the hell is this?" ”
"Wangxiangtai," the little wolf replied in a deep voice.
As soon as I heard that the little wolf said that it was Wangxiangtai, I was shocked, and even the old prostitute standing next to me shuddered after hearing these three words.
It is said that when Bao Zheng first served as the king of the first hall of Yama after his death, because the first hall of hell was the closest hell building to the yang world, and because the ghosts from all walks of life had not yet drunk Meng Po soup when they entered the first hall, the ghosts still had nostalgia for the life of the yang world and their relatives, so there were often ghosts who climbed the famous mountain of the underworld and tried to look back at the scene of the yang world, but they could not see it.
In this torment of longing for relatives but not being able to see each other, many ghosts are crying secretly in the middle of the night, and their voices are tragic and tear-jerking. As the first temple of the Yama Heavenly Son, Bao Zheng was kind-hearted, merciful and compassionate, and when he heard about this, he was moved by compassion, and ordered the ghost to send a lookout platform and move it to the side of the Son of Heaven Palace, allowing the soul of Yin Cao to look at his hometown and relatives when he was born. Therefore, Wangxiangtai is also known as "Homesick Ridge", which has become a window for ghosts in the underworld to look at the sun.
In the past, I heard the elders often say a sentence about Wangxiangtai, which said, "If you don't eat in the world for one day, you will cross the yin and yang realm in two days, and you will arrive at Wangxiangtai in three days, and you will see your relatives crying and mourning." It means that before the ghost went to report to the underworld, he was very concerned about his relatives in the Yang world, and although the ghost was severely urged and reprimanded, he still forcibly climbed the Wangxiang platform, and looked at his hometown from afar, crying loudly, and then went to the underworld with all his heart.
The old prostitute looked at the little wolf and asked: "Zhanzhao, to tell you the truth, I have heard of Wangxiangtai, but this is the first time I have seen it, it is said that this Wangxiangtai is very evil, and the construction is also very strange, have you encountered it before?" ”
The little wolf shook his head and said, "I haven't seen it, but it is said that the construction structure of Wangxiangtai is quite strange, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, the face is like a bowback, the back is like a bowstring, and the rest is a sword mountain and sword tree, which is very steep." ”
