Chapter Eighty-Three: One Step Floating
It was as if he had fallen from the human world to hell all at once, and his vision suddenly became dim and blurred, and the whole person seemed to be in an endless stream of water.
Shipwrecks, water monsters, eyes full of all kinds of stumps and severed arms floating in the water, and swollen corpses with hideous faces that have been damaged by the water.
I was so stunned by what I saw in front of me that my mind went blank that I desperately swam towards the surface of the water to escape from this hell on earth.
But I didn't expect that as soon as people came out of the water, they saw an even more terrifying picture.
The river was full of people dying in the water, old people, middle-aged people, young people with the rising sun, and babies waiting to be fed......
Everyone's faces were filled with the same expression at the moment, fear and despair.
I could clearly see how the living beings sank to the bottom of the water after the last cry, and became a lifeless corpse; You can also see the whole process of the water monster cruising in the water waiting for the opportunity to pull the living person into the water and then eat away at the corpse.
The cries for help and cries from the depths of my soul were endless, and I was quickly infected by the emotions in front of me as I watched them.
It's as if these people on the water are my dear relatives and friends, watching them fall into death one by one but powerless, an inexplicable mania and depression slowly rise in my heart, making me feel like a nameless fire in my chest, wanting to vent it and burn all the muddy water in front of me.
Just when I felt like I was about to lose my control, I heard a sudden thunderclap in the cloudy sky, and the thunder rolled as if someone was talking.
"Come out!"
An angry shout entered my ears, I only felt a lightness all over my body, and the picture in front of me suddenly turned, like the mirror flower and the moon were scattered by a falling rock, and the fluttering scatter returned to the original scene, dense fog, bluestone bricks, and the eighth master standing beside him.
And at this moment, I seemed to be drained of strength, my limbs were weak, and I muttered in my mouth, and I was about to fall to the ground with a staggering sound.
The eighth master grabbed my arm, then put me on his shoulder and walked to the tea shed to put it down, picked up the bowl of tea that had been placed on the table and poured it into my mouth, and suddenly felt a cool entrance, flowing along all corners of the body, and the physical strength that had dissipated before had also recovered a lot.
I sat up with difficulty, my mind was still stuck in the scene of the Shura hell just now, and it took me a long time to look at the eighth master and say, "Master, what the hell is going on?" ”
The eighth master took a sip of tea and said lightly: "A hundred meters forward from this shop is the gate of Rakshasa City, and you have just taken a step." ”
"One Hundred Meters ......"
I muttered, "Is this all the scene like this in the past 100 meters?" ”
"It's not all, the further back you go, the more dangerous it is, and when you finish this road, you will not only see these scenes, but also experience what countless unjust souls who died in the water in the city of vain experienced before they died, from ancient times to the present, there are no more than 5 people who can walk this road without being scattered by their own ability."
My back was cold when I heard this, but I still didn't give up looking at the eighth master and said, "Then there is still a chance of success, right?" ”
The eighth master nodded and said: "Of course, there are no absolute things, let alone absolute people, you can rely on your own perseverance to give it a try, but there will only be one result." ”
"What result?" I hurriedly said.
"Let your dad see for himself how his son is disillusioned in front of him." The eighth master still said indifferently.
"But has anyone ever succeeded?" I was not reconciled.
The eighth master sneered and said, "Before you say these words, you might as well take a good look at what you look like now." ”
I unconsciously looked down when I heard this, and found that my body had become translucent at some point, and I could see clearly the stool and the ground under my butt through my body!
I stretched out my hands in front of me in disbelief, and through the palms of my hands, I saw that the eighth master was drinking tea indifferently on the other side, and said to me, "You have only taken one step." ”
"So, then I really won't be able to see my dad again?"
I was paralyzed like a mourner, I worked hard for so long, and my father was only a hundred meters away from me, but the distance of 100 meters made people feel like the end of the world, even farther away than this.
Just one step has almost made my soul fly away, and the remaining ninety-nine steps, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to complete it in my life.
"Master, are you also afraid of this hundred-meter road, so you have stayed here?" I asked, relieving myself.
"Yes or no, I'm here to wait for someone." Eight Masters said.
"Waiting for whom?"
The eighth master didn't answer me, but looked outside the shed, and said lightly: "Are you going or going back?" ”
I didn't know how to answer.
"I can teach you a method, when you go back, you can find the King of Hundred Herbs to resolve Yu'er's condition first, and then go with her to Chenhu, Jiangsu, where you can find the secret of entering Rakshasa City."
After listening to the eighth master's words, I raised my head and said, "Chen Hu? In that case, why don't you just go to that place to get it, and then enter Rakshasa City? ”
"Me?"
The eighth master smiled dumbly and said: "If I really have an iron heart to enter this Rakshasa City, even if 100,000 Yin soldiers come out to stop me, it won't delay me for half an hour. ”
"Master, who are you waiting for, enemy?" I asked.
But the eighth master didn't want to say a word about this person, but said: "If you don't go through the process, then leave quickly, and if you encounter the Yin soldiers patrolling the river later, with your ability, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave if you want to." ”
I saw that after the eighth master finished speaking, he began to close his eyes and fell into a state of false sleep, sat for a while, stood up and bowed to the eighth master and said, "Master, take care." ”
Then he came to the bluestone brick road, looked at the direction he had just walked over, knelt on the ground, kowtowed respectfully three times, and muttered: "Dad, you wait for me, and when I go to Bachen Lake, I will take you home." ”
After finishing speaking, he got up and was about to go back along the way, when he heard the eighth master say lightly: "On the way back from the Huangquan River, remember not to turn back, once you turn back, you will leave three souls and seven spirits, and there is no possibility of escaping forever." ”
I looked back at the eighth master and found that he was still in a state of closed eyes, so I answered heavily and returned to the ferry along the bluestone brick road.
Standing at the ferry, I exhaled slowly, in fact, this time I will not come for nothing, at least let me know that my grandfather may still be alive, although there is little hope, but there is always a trace of thought.
It's just that what he has done in Sanchawan over the years, I really can't figure it out, if all this is for me, then I can't understand it, I have been living well since I was a child, and all my memories are completely in my mind, and I don't feel anything abnormal.
Thinking about it, I have been standing at the ferry for a long time unconsciously, and I have never seen any signs of the old man on the ferry.
But at this moment, the calm river suddenly waved, and more and more, gradually forming a huge whirlpool, as if some behemoth was about to emerge from the water.
I was startled, vaguely guessed something, and hurriedly took a few steps back, and before I could stand on my heels, I saw the huge head of the tail pushing through the river and emerging leisurely.
After the head of the tail came out, he showed a little more of his body, and after sweeping his huge searchlight-like eyes over me, he actually stretched out to the shore and lay his head on the bank of the river, not moving, as if waiting for me to come up.
My brain was a little stunned all of a sudden, although the eighth master personally said that he would give me this tail, but such a big behemoth suddenly let me ride it as a pet, saying that I was not afraid that it would be a lie.
But at the moment I didn't seem to have any other way to leave it, trembling and trying to take two steps forward, after seeing that it did not have any hostility and movement, I gritted my teeth and came directly to its side, stretched out a hand and gently put it on it, and then said, "You let me ride it, huh?" ”
After making sure that it would not bite me, I climbed up to the head of the tail with a tense heart, and then carefully came to the part where the body was connected to the head, and after lying on my stomach like an octopus, I said, "Go, go." ”
At this moment, the tail raised his head and let out a long roar, turned his head around, and his body was half floating on the water, carrying me towards the Yellow Spring River. ()
