Chapter 229: Moonlight on the Lotus Pond
"Oh, by the way," Luna seemed to think of something, "remembering that the sorcerer Medusa had been yelling about the Hades coming to her rescue or something before she was put in prison. ”
The words "Hades ......" made a lot of waves in Wu Ming's heart, Hades, think about the Pandora I saw before, these characters are all characters from Greek mythology, this shouldn't be a coincidence......
"Goodbye!" Zheng Xianyue saw that Wu Ming was confused, gently waved his hand at the goblins, grabbed Wu Ming's hand, and ran onto the bridge of the River Styx, and Wu Ming also ran.
"Walk slowly!"
"Goodbye!"
The elves were boiling, and Luna gently touched the butterfly hairpin on her head, "I hope to see you again one day." ”
The bridge of the River Styx is not an ordinary bridge, this kind of bridge is made up of countless piers, like dominoes, stretching into the endless distance, the water of the River Styx floods the lower layers of these "dominoes", and countless stone steps can be seen on the water, fortunately, there is a stone step at almost every step.
Wu Ming and Yue'er took cautious steps, this kind of dangerous bridge is really something that has never been seen in their lives, if this bridge is built by the god of the underworld, this god of the underworld must be very poor, it stands to reason that in Greek mythology, Hades is not only the god of the underworld, but also controls all the wealth underground, and is the god in charge of wealth.
This level of pettiness ...... Not really......
"What's the matter? Look at your lamentation, are you so unhappy with me?" Zheng Xianyue said angrily.
"I didn't ...... There is no such thing," Wu Ming saw that Yue'er was suddenly angry, and hurriedly appeased.
"But then again, why do the elves know about our conversation? As Catherine said, she cast a deafness curse on the palace, and how did the elves outside the palace know?"
Zheng Xianyue took out another butterfly hairpin, and Wu Ming knew about the butterfly hairpin, because Yue'er gave one to Luna, but Wu Ming didn't expect Yue'er to have another one here.
Zheng Xianyue looked proud, "This alchemy item is in pairs, and it can have two-way communication within a certain range. ”
Listening to Yue'er's explanation, Wu Ming's gaze swept away, "Heh, isn't this a walkie-talkie?" It's hard to imagine, Catherine probably didn't know if she died, and everything she said was indeed conveyed through the "walkie-talkie" without mistake.
"What is a walkie-talkie?" Zheng Xianyue looked disgusted and dissatisfied, "And the 'heh' you just said, what does that attitude mean?"
"How could I have said that?"
"Did you say that?"
"How could I have said that. ”
"Really!" Zheng Xianyue's dissatisfied shout came from the bridge of the River Styx, "how much else do you have to hide from me." ”
"Guess what!"
......
On the Styx Bridge, Wu Ming took Yue'er's little hand lightly, walking step by step, with every step he could feel the tremor of the Styx water hitting the stone piers, are these stone piers really as strong as they seem?
Such a river of Styx, if ordinary people take a wrong step, I am afraid that they will fall into the water of the River Styx, and there will be no return. With this trace of worry, Wu Ming looked back at Yue'er, who seemed to care more about the sky at this time than the bridge itself. Wu Ming had only been worried about his feet before, but he didn't know that the sky around him was so dark.
"It's strange, it's very unnaturally dark, the sky was clear just now, but now it's like this, and looking at this trend, if you go deeper, the sky may be even darker. Yue'er carried a hint of sorrow.
Wu Ming couldn't help but think of the River Styx she saw when she was in Catherine's dream. In that kind of Styx, the sky and the river are the same color as the river, intertwined, and there is no light at all, let alone a trace of hope.
"Are you scared?"
Yue'er shook her head, but the little hand held by Wu Ming gradually clenched tighter, and she had unconsciously betrayed her fear at this time.
As the two of them walked further into the heart of the River Styx, a bone-chilling wind blew on the bridge, as if it could frostbite people's souls.
Wu Ming held up an invisible barrier to keep the wind out, but what made them not optimistic was that it would be difficult to move an inch if they went any further, because they could no longer even see the road under their feet.
The stone steps that were originally exposed to the water gradually disappeared under the water as the water level rose. Although it is relatively shallow, it is even more difficult to see the reality in front of it through a layer of black water of the River Styx.
The surroundings were like Catherine's nightmare, and they fell into a black swamp, but I don't know if there is a real god in the depths of this darkness.
Looking at the turbulent flow that flowed over the stone steps in front of him, Wu Ming hesitated, whether to go or not. No one knew how deep the water of the Styx River was, and Wu Ming and Yue'er didn't dare to take this risk.
Wu Ming looked at Yue'er with pity, but looked at her smile of understanding, even if the two of them went to the ends of the earth, would they have no regrets?
A trace of warmth flowed in my heart, "Yue'er." ”
"Huh?"
"Do you remember the Festival of Lights?" Wu Ming closed his eyes, and he could clearly feel the undefeated cause and effect knot in his body, which was still golden.
Wu Ming quietly closed his eyes and raised his other hand, and a trace of golden quills was drawn from the causal knot, and the power of golden quill bloomed, condensing into a small ball of light.
The ball of light that shimmered brightly condensed to his fingertips, and deduced a new "special effect" according to Wu Ming's thoughts.
Under Wu Ming's intentional manipulation, the ball of light rose from his fingertips and flew into the air.
When it rose to the sky, it exploded in the sky like a huge firework, turning into countless fragments of starlight.
The starlight slowly drifted down and slowly fell into the water, and countless bright lotus flowers appeared one after another on the lifeless river Styx.
"In my hometown, there is a kind of lamp called Krathong. ”
The "Special Effect Lotus" bloomed one after another, and the red petals showed its incomparable brilliance, and for a while, with the flow of the River Styx, the whole River Styx was like a sea of flowers.
The lotus flowers were in full bloom, and countless fireflies flew into the air, ignoring the blowing wind, as if these evil winds had no effect on the weak ones.
Suddenly, they seemed to have found a backbone in the air, and slowly gathered together, forming a bright moon in the air.
The good end of a seeping picture of the underworld was brutally broken by Wu Ming into a beautiful moonlight scene on the lotus pond.
