To the north of the Abyss, about 990 kilometers away, there is a mountain called the Netherworld. This mountain is the junction of the demon realm and the god realm, and it is the pass leading to the netherworld capital.

When Luo Yao was young, the Queen Mother of the West told her a story, saying that there was a monster on the Netherworld Mountain, named Li. The monster was tall, looking a bit like a cow, with four horns. Its hair is long, like a cloak draped over its body. Moreover, it likes to eat living people, and is cruel by nature, and after catching its prey, it often bites the limbs of the prey, and listens to the prey crying in pain under it, so that the prey is tortured to death.

After Luo Yao heard this, his eyes widened, and he was not only afraid of fear, but also a trace of curiosity.

Growing up in Yaochi Wonderland, she didn't know that there were such terrifying things in heaven and earth.

She remembered seeing a strange bird with white feathers, red feathers on its tail, six legs, and fire. It was the strangest animal she'd ever seen, but it wouldn't bite or eat people.

The Queen Mother of the West smiled and patted her little head, saying that there are many rare and exotic beasts in the Five Realms, and when she grows up, she will take her to see more strange birds and beasts.

"Can you take me to see the Ruthless then?" Luo Yao asked with wide eyes.

The Queen Mother of the West looked at her dotingly and smiled, "Okay." When Luo Luo grows up, the queen mother's mother will take you to see it. ”

Hearing this, the young Luo Yao held a piece of glutinous rice cake and grinned with satisfaction.

Time flies like a white horse, and the world is like a white cloud and a dog.

This small agreement was quickly forgotten by the Queen Mother of the West and Luo Yao.

However, hundreds of years later, Luo Yao saw the ruthlessness.

Jie Ran never thought that one of the maids he arranged for Luo Yao had received Luo Yao's great favor. After Jie Ran left, the next day, the maid used her spiritual power to stun another guard maid, and then escaped from the Bi Ming Abyss with Luo Yao.

In order to divert the pursuers, the maid deliberately separated from Luo Yao and fled in two ways, successfully diverting the people who came to pursue him, so that Luo Yao could leave the Bi Ming Abyss smoothly.

After escaping from the Blue Abyss, the path of the Heavenly Realm cannot be walked. If you want to go to the fairy world to meet Yayu and them, you can only detour to the underworld, and then detour to the past.

The entrance to the underworld is just below the Netherworld.

And the ruthless is the guardian beast of the Netherworld Mountain.

When Luo Yao climbed to the Netherworld Mountain, he saw the relentless standing on the top of the mountain, with two corpses beside him that had been stripped of their internal organs and their limbs were crushed.

In fact, it is not as terrible as the legend, but it is a little bigger, and it looks a little scary. It also noticed Luo Yao, and its green eyes looked at her from afar for a moment through the clouds, and then flicked its tail and slowly turned away with its stomach shy.

At that time, Luo Yao suddenly felt that it was better to be a beast.

No matter how greedy the beast is, after it has eaten and drunk enough, it will not create any more senseless killing. It is stronger than those gods and demons who have been enlightened but have lost their hearts.

The process of entering the underworld was smoother than expected. Because the Netherworld Mountain is next to the Divine Realm, there have always been few people coming and going, so the defense is also very lax. Luo Yao was barely inspected, and he mixed in.

On the seventh day of coming here, the weather in the underworld was still as cold as ever.

The flowers blooming on the side of the road exude a faint light like a residual candle, and there is a kind of decadent beauty. A damp and bitter wind blew from the edge of the Yellow Spring, mixed with the dead air of the corpses rotting. The smell of blood permeates the air that will never be cleared.

Luo Yao stood on the bank of the Yellow Spring, looking at the mountains of corpses and bones in the distance, and the undead in pale white clothes stood in a long row, walking forward expressionlessly.

Cross the Lechuan River, climb the Nai He Bridge, drink Meng Po soup, and embark on the road of reincarnation.

Looking at them, Luo Yao was actually quite envious.

Losing those bitter or sweet memories can be exchanged for a peace of mind, and no longer burdened by ordinary dust.

How nice.

It's a pity that she is a god and is destined not to forget.

The human race thinks that the underworld is a place where people who have sinned deeply in life are imprisoned and punished, and it is a prison and execution ground in the underworld.

Not really.

The cause of one life bears the fruit of one life, and the right and wrong of good and evil are sown there, and the corresponding results must be reaped there.

The underworld is just a transit point, not the ultimate way to punish the wicked.

People who come to the underworld usually have two choices: reincarnation, or joining the demons.

If you choose to be reincarnated, you have to forget about your past life and continue to live an ordinary life. If you want to join the Demon Clan, you can keep your memories of life. But the premise is that you need to have a certain amount of dark spirit element, and you must also withstand the tempering of the thirty-six hell demon fires.

Few people choose the second path.

The day after Luo Yao came here, he happened to meet one.

The gate to the outside of the underworld was opened on the ninth day, but it was unfortunate that Luo Yao came on the second day of the opening of the gate, so that he would be delayed here for seven days and nights.

In the past few days, Luo Yao has been pretending to be a ghost in the human world. She sealed all her Lingyuan, changed her appearance, and she acted carefully, so she never showed any horses.

The underworld has a large population, and there are a large number of undead stationed in every day, and there are also many people who are reincarnated and departed, and people come and go. The ghosts are very busy, but no one cares about her as a little girl of unknown origin.

That day, Luo Yao was washing on the edge of the Yellow Spring.

Yellow spring water mixed with glazed sand flows slowly through the fingertips. She was squinting, feeling the rare clarity and coldness, when she suddenly felt a burning gaze fall on her.

Luo Yao frowned, turned her head, and saw a young man greeting her with a smile among the new undead.

Xiao Zhao'er glanced at him, and when she saw that he was not an acquaintance, she turned around and continued to wash clothes.

The boy was a little stumbling for a while.

After a while, when the boy had finished his report, he ran back to her and talked to her without saying anything.

Luo Yao didn't want to pay attention to him, but he couldn't resist his constant entanglement, and seeing that he didn't have any malicious intent, he slowly began to talk to him.

"You're going to the Demon Realm too, aren't you? It just so happens that we are in the same group, and we can take care of each other in the future. The blue-eyed boy walked over and squatted next to her and said with a smile, "My name is Cycad, what's your name?" ”

Luo Yao raised his eyebrows slightly, turned his head to look at him, and said curiously, "How do you know that I am going to the Demon Realm?" ”

The boy touched his head and said embarrassedly, "Did I guess wrong?" I'm sorry. I saw that you were very leisurely here, not like you were in a hurry to be reincarnated, so I thought that you might be like me, wanting to become a demon. ”

Luo Yao didn't tell him about himself, and changed the subject, "Why do you want to be a demon?" In the human world, aren't demons always feared and hated? What's more, becoming a demon and enduring the punishment of hell fire is not worth thinking about. ”

Su Tie smiled and said, "It's not as bad as you say." Alas, in fact, I just want to keep the memories of my life, so I don't want to be reincarnated like this. ”

Luo Yao became interested and asked, "What kind of memory is so important that you are willing to fall into the devil's path." ”

"Actually, it's nothing, it's just a book of ships." Su Tie blushed and said, "I'm not afraid of girls' jokes, my family has been shipbuilders for generations, and it is four generations of single generations, and when they came to me, they died early before they left a successor."

My grandfather was a master shipbuilder, and he left a book called "Breaking the Waves", which cannot be passed on due to family regulations, so it has been kept by future generations. Because of this skill, our family has always been valued by the emperor, and has served in the Ministry of Industry of the imperial court for generations. ”

"Then you were also an official when you were alive?" Luo Yao suddenly remembered, and said, "By the way, how did you die?" ”

Su Tie smiled bitterly, "I did work in the Ministry of Industry before I was born, and I became a waiter in the Ministry of Industry." But I didn't expect that I would be involved in the battle between the party and the henchmen. It's also that I don't know how to be flexible, and I think that as long as I do my job well, I don't want to form a party with them and intrigue with them. As a result, I didn't expect that in this way, I offended the people on both sides, and was finally framed by the prime minister's party, and before I could entrust the future, I was dragged to the vegetable market and beheaded. My family's family tradition has also declined. ”

Speaking of this, Su Tie sighed and said helplessly.

Luo Yao wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know where to start, so he simply followed him and was silent.

After a while, Su Tie spoke, "By the way, you haven't told me yet, what's your name?" ”

"Xiao Zhao'er." Luo Yao said.

"Xiao Zhao'er, this name is really nice." He read word for word, and then laughed, "Look at this, we're going to be here for a few more days." Let's be a companion. Tell me if you have any difficulties in the future, and I can help too. ”

Luo Yao was very surprised, surprised by this person's familiarity, raised his head and asked him, "We have only met for the first time, why do you want to help me?" ”

"It is right for a man to take care of a woman, and," he said, bowing his head slightly, with a soft expression of déjà vu on his face, "you are very similar to my sister. ”

Luo Yao looked at him and felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, hazy, making people feel as if they had seen it somewhere, but they couldn't say it specifically.

Maybe it's because I saw his past life when I was playing in the human world before.

Luo Yao shook his head a few times, no longer entangled in such a trivial matter. Of course, I didn't take his self-conscious "help" to heart.

Although she is a little worse, she is still a serious god. No matter how bad it is, it is better than him, the undead of the world.

After that day, cycads really followed her every day. Luo Yao began to reject him, and then gradually began to get used to his presence. The days of the underworld are boring, and it is always good to have one more person as your companion.

The scenery here is very dull and boring, and gray is always the dominant color. Although there is the mottled color of Shili Manzhu Sahua, I am also a little tired of watching it for the past few days.

These days, cycads always bring a flower branch or a bag of food that they found out of nowhere to chat with Luo Yao to relieve their boredom. Most of the time, he was talking alone, and Luo Yao silently buried his head in the battle with food. He didn't care, just looked at her and smiled, his eyes warm like a warm spring breeze in April in the human world.

At this time, Luo Yao always thought that this kid must be a sister control, so he would be so good to himself who looks very similar to his sister.
