Chapter 22: The World of the Underworld

Jiuqu Huangquan came from the sky

Hell opens

There is no other way to cross this spring

The bottomless boat carries the remains of the dead

Meng Po has soup into reincarnation

The yellow spring was shadowless and eventually turned to ashes

The ferryman finished singing slowly, high-pitched and tactful, the singing voice made people feel like a spring breeze, but when I tasted it carefully, it made me suddenly fall into a cold tan, compared with the last time, the two extra sentences obviously have a deeper meaning, I stared at the ferryman, hoping that he could give me an explanation.

The ferryman pretended not to see it, turned his head away, turned his back to me, the bottomless boat stopped, the dark yellow spring water was like a flat mirror, and the ferryman and I were silent with each other, and at last, he spoke.

"Originally, I didn't want to talk about it, but I finally met someone like you, maybe you will come more often in the future, and it doesn't hurt to talk about it."

"How do you know I'll be coming often, could it be that you've met someone like me before?" Could it be that the person he once met was the leper Lee, I thought to myself.

"Yes, I have encountered it, but it was still hundreds of years ago" The ferryman's words directly rejected my speculation.

He said: "This poem is my own boredom to make it, sung for thousands of years, has not changed, and then there was an accident, I added it again, because it was added later, and my talent is shallow, so it sounds a little abrupt, under normal circumstances I don't sing the last two sentences, now I see you, I can't help it, I sang it again, hehe"

Ferry laughed heartily, his voice crisp, and I knew that he was a lot younger now.

"What accident?" I asked.

"Put the Huangquan skin back, that strange person fished up the Huangquan skin and put it back, saying that he was here to find immortality, what do you want this thing to do?"

"Immortality? Come to the underworld to find some immortality, is it possible to be like Sun Monkey, tick off the book of life and death," I said half-jokingly.

The ferryman didn't answer me, but asked me coldly, "Do you know what happened to that man?" ”

I was stunned for a moment, shook my head, and thought that this person's result should be a lesson for me, listening to the ferryman's tone and the meaning of those two lines of poetry, I am afraid that nothing good will come out.

The ferryman picked up the boat again, and soon the boat was not far from the shore, and he continued: "I saw him come several times later, and every time I went back, I was very excited, but the last time I went in, he was thrown into this yellow spring, and before the man could scream, the waves in the yellow spring turned over, and a shadow suddenly opened its mouth and swallowed him whole, and then I realized that this figure was his yellow spring skin."

I was terrified when I heard this, I thought that this was the end of the matter, but the ferryman continued: "After the yellow spring skin swallowed him, he directly turned into his appearance and went ashore, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared, and at the same time, the dog appeared in the city gate, it seems that there is something that threatens the king of Qin Guang, so he sent that little dog to guard against the appearance of people like you."

"It's here, let's go down" The brittle voice of the ferryman came, and at this time, I came back to my senses, looking at his immature face, I replied woodenly: "Okay"

The moment I disembarked, I seemed to see a figure swimming in the water at the bottom of the boat, and when I looked again, there was something there!

I stood for a long time, until the yellow spring suddenly disappeared from under my nose, and then I turned around, and during this time, there was no shadow of me in the yellow spring.

After composing myself, I turned around and walked towards the city gate.

The frequency of the last time the white butler knocked on the door was very special and relatively simple, so I easily wrote it down, after the door opened, the dog slowly shook out, and when he saw me, he asked happily: "Young man, you are finally here again"

"Young man?" Looking at this dog who had just been called a puppy by the ferryman, his title made me feel weird. I took out the token, but I didn't expect him to look at it, and waved his hand directly: "Let's go in"

"Hugou, do you know where that paper figure is?"

I walked a few steps and turned back again.

"Judging by the time, they should still be in the temporary settlement"

"Temporary quarters? Where is that? Doesn't Mingcan have a house? I asked.

"Then I don't know" The dog thought for a long time, and didn't come up with a better answer, I looked at its old face, my eyes were cloudy, and I spread my hands helplessly, I still have to rely on myself when I go out!

Out of the city gate, there are rows of houses, in front of each door stand these vendors in cloth clothes, much like the ancient street market, I browsed all the way, fruits, clothes, food...... Everything is no different from the world, but my heart is still numb, walking in the middle of the street, everyone's eyes are looking at it together, there is no so-called shouting, the whole street is quiet.

I couldn't stand it anymore, so I couldn't help but speed up my pace, and at this moment, a copper sound suddenly exploded, and I subconsciously covered my ears that were shocked, and looked at the source of the sound from the corner of my eye.

"The soul begins, the idlers avoid, and the city gates are opened"

It was a group of rat soldiers on white bone horses, and before I could see how many there were, a rooster's voice came, and the city gate was opened.

Soul Purification? Could it be to clean up those wandering spirits outside the city! The first time I came, I remember a rat soldier chasing a broken ghost, which seemed to be conscious and asked me for help, but the first time I came, before I could figure out what was going on, the ghost was shot dead by the rat soldier.

The rat horses had gone some distance, and I saw that in front of them there was a rooster, with its head held high, and its two wings holding a gong like a man's hand, and it seemed that it was just opening the way!

I stood on the side of the road, watching them leave, when the rooster passed by, the little eyes looked at me, but immediately turned their heads again, and after the rat soldiers completely passed me, I patted the dust on my body, ready to go to Mingcan, look at the surrounding situation, ask for directions is not enough, can only walk step by step.

After walking for a distance, there were still some vendors on both sides, and in the distance, there was no end in sight, and I walked for so long that I only saw the sellers, but I couldn't see the people who bought the things.

I was hesitating to take the risk to ask for directions, when the rooster suddenly rushed in front of me and blocked me, and the rooster yelled at me: "Boy, I see that you are new here, come with me and go to see King Qin Guang"

I was a little annoyed when I walked, and I was yelled by the rooster's rooster, and I was even more upset, although the strong dragon couldn't suppress the head snake, but I couldn't die here, so I hugged my arms, squinted at the rooster and said, "Who are you?" Let me go with you."

The rooster obviously didn't expect me to talk to it with such an attitude, the circles of hair on his neck were upside down, and he roared in a sharp voice: "This official is the herald of King Qin Guang's sitting, rooster, let you go, you will leave, otherwise, be careful I will let you cook in the oil pot for three days and three nights, and then beat you to the eighteenth layer of hell, so that you will never be reincarnated"
