Chapter 128: Huangquan Road
Han Yu didn't bother talking to Yun Duruo and Nangong Yi for so long, he was standing alone by the pool where we were getting water just now, and when we heard his voice, our attention was focused on him.
Han Yu asked us to count how many pools like those in front of him were on this huge circular stone platform, and we counted them, no more, no less, just nine.
Han Yu reached into the pool and picked up the water, looked at it for a long time, and fell in front of our eyes, and then we saw that the water was glowing with a faint yellow.
"It's not a pool, I've seen it before, it's a well." Han Yu shook off the water in his hand, limped to us, and said with an anxious face. "These wells are connected to underground springs."
"The underground spring water should be crystal clear, why is it pale yellow?" Yun Duruo asked in surprise.
"Because...... These springs also have a name, maybe you should be familiar with it. Han Yu licked his lips and looked around anxiously.
"What's the name?"
"When digging a well, when it is dug deep underground, there will be a spring, and the groundwater seeps out of the loess, often with a yellow color, so it is called a very deep underground ......" Han Yu took a deep breath and looked at us grimly. It's called Yellow Spring! ”
"Yellow Springs?!" I looked at Han Yu in surprise, and suddenly thought that there were a total of nine such water springs on this stone platform, and hesitated for a moment and muttered to myself in surprise. "Nine...... Nine Yellow Springs ......"
"Nine here does not refer to the number, nine refers to the meaning of the limit, and the nine yellow springs are actually the nine springs." Han Yu's brows furrowed even tighter, and he said worriedly. "The true meaning of the Nine Springs is the deepest place in the earth, and I think you should have all heard of the Nine Springs...... It refers to the Netherworld! ”
"Then here is Huangquan's words...... The way we just came! I turned my head to the long, dark staircase I had just walked down here.
"Huangquan Road!" Han Yu's voice sounded behind me.
I've heard rumors about Netherworld and even fantasized about the so-called Yellow Springs Road, but I never thought I'd actually stand under the Nine Springs and look out at the Yellow Springs Road.
"Huangquan Road refers to the underworld, is it ...... Do you mean that this is Hades? Nangong Yi asked Han Yu in surprise.
"I told you this is Hades, but you didn't believe it......"
There was a gloomy voice behind us, I didn't have to look back to know who it was, and I really couldn't think of anyone else who could appear here except Xu Wanjun.
We turned around and saw Xu Wanjun slowly walking towards us, before that, I had imagined in my heart that Xu Wanjun had transformed Qi Chutong and An Rongyue into extremely vicious and terrifying monsters, and it was hard for me to imagine what she would be like when I saw Xu Wanjun.
But what appeared in front of us was the ordinary Xu Wanjun, she walked over to us leisurely, completely fearless, although Qi Chutong and An Rongyue both died in the hands of the three of us, but really still think of them I still have a fear in my heart, Qi Chutong and An Rongyue have the ability to easily put us to death, even if we win in the end, but it is just luck and luck, I admit that I am really afraid of them, But they were not at all afraid of the ugly old woman standing in front of us.
Xu Wanjun is best at mind control and mind destruction, once she is violated by her consciousness, she will completely become her follower, just like Qi Chu and them, but this kind of consciousness possession and control requires a long time of subtle indoctrination, I think Xu Wanjun no matter how powerful he is, it is impossible to control all of us in a period of time.
"Qi Chutong and An Rongyue are both dead, and your so-called perfect evolution doesn't seem to be perfect...... I suddenly found that I seemed to ignore someone, and looked at Xu Wanjun's surprised question. What about Cai Heqi? Why isn't he by your side, Qi Chu is a human centipede, An Rongyue is a monster with a human head and a snake body, what did you transform Cai Heqi into? ”
"What's so good about a necrophile's psychopath, since he likes corpses so much, I'll let him be with corpses forever." Xu Wanjun replied noncommittally or not.
"There's no one to be your accomplice anymore, don't be stubborn in the underworld, your so-called underworld is nothing more than that, go back with us and confess." Yun Duruo said seriously.
"What? Don't you think this is Hades? Xu Wanjun twitched the corners of her mouth, and the hideous face looked even more weird, and then stared at me intently and said coldly. Time and time again, you think you know all the secrets, but you still don't, but you don't have to guess, I'll tell you something you didn't expect. ”
Xu Wanjun walked around us as she spoke, she stopped next to the first water spring on the stone platform, her hand slowly raised and a sharp dagger was held in her hand, sadly no one was afraid of her, in our eyes she was more like a desperate madman.
But what secretly surprised me was that Xu Wanjun was still so calm and confident, and from her cold eyes, I still read the contempt that could not be overcome.
Xu Wanjun's eyes fell on the dagger in her hand, it should be a very sharp dagger, reflecting the cold light that grabbed people's hearts, Xu Wanjun's fingers scraped the blade with such confidence, if she planned to use such a dagger to reverse the decline, then Xu Wanjun would inevitably think too highly of herself, but in fact, I have never doubted Xu Wanjun's cleverness, how can a madman who can impersonate and strategize and manage Hede Medical College for more than 30 years without being discovered be stupid to this extent.
Xu Wanjun slowly raised her head and stared at us coldly, her hand actually held the blade and then pulled it gently, a stream of blood suddenly flowed down, we looked at Xu Wanjun with each other and didn't know what she wanted, Xu Wanjun clenched the cut hand into a fist and slowly stretched out to the water spring without changing its color.
The moment the blood dripped into it, the yellowed water in the water spring boiled in an instant, and the yellow spring turned into a blood spring in an instant, and all the red blood water was gushing out of it.
"This is not the underworld now, but I believe it will be soon, I remember telling you that I am the guide of the underworld, but I am not leading someone else......" Xu Wanjun continued to walk forward, and the blood in her hand dripped into the second water spring and instantly turned into a blood spring. I've been showing you the way, and my real secret is to lead you here step by step. ”
"Bring us here?" Nangong Yi slowly sobered up and asked a lot of righteous words. "What can you do here?"
"I told you at the beginning that I wanted a world full of death, where all people were sick and alive like the walking dead without a soul, and I was saving everyone." An Rongyue had turned the fifth fountain into a fountain of blood, and those crimson blood waters were boiling and tumbling inside. "Suzaku told me that as long as I do what she says, my wish will come true, and you are the last move in the plan."
"Suzaku?!" I looked at Xu Wanjun in surprise and asked in shock. "Suzaku made you do all this?"
"I originally planned to save every student who entered Hede Medical College, and then let them leave the school to educate more people, and I believe that soon there will be many people who are as normal as me." Xu Wanjun stopped next to the seventh blood spring, and the blood dripped in, and she looked at us arrogantly and said coldly. "But Suzaku told me that this way was too slow, and she had a faster way, so I drove the people I cloned to build this place, according to her wishes."
I took a deep breath in my heart, if Xu Wanjun followed her original idea, with her mental destruction and mind control of people, if she instilled her crazy and sick thoughts into the students, then all those who graduated from Hede Medical College were crazy people who were assimilated by her, and once these people left the school, they would be like a plague to force Xu Wanjun's evil thoughts into other people, it would definitely not be too slow This way of spreading by geometric multiples, I believe that soon the situation will be out of control.
I was glad that Xu Wanjun didn't do it in the end, but listening to what she meant, Suzaku had a faster way to fulfill her, I was surprised and panicked, what method Suzaku was planning to use.
Xu Wanjun finally stopped next to the ninth water spring, and as soon as her hand was raised, Han Yu next to her shouted.
"Stop! Suzaku is lying to you! She's not trying to help you at all, she's asking for something you can't afford. ”
"Do you know what Suzaku is going to do?" Xu Wanjun asked rhetorically relaxedly.
Yun Duruo and Nangong Yi also looked at Han Yu, I saw that his expression was nervous and flustered, and asked anxiously.
"What the hell is Suzaku going to do?"
"I don't know the specifics, but I heard my master once mention that there is a formation called the Soul Gathering Array in the Dao Law, and I think everything here is arranged according to the Soul Gathering Array." Han Yu replied with a low face.
"What is the Soul Gathering Array for?" Yun Duruo asked.
Han Yu told us that the Soul Gathering Array is a large array in the Dao Law, but all righteous people will not activate it because of the loss of cultivation and merit, the Soul Gathering Array is to gather souls as the name suggests, and the souls of the dead are gathered in the Netherworld, so when casting this formation, we must first set up a Huangquan Road to guide the souls of the dead, and at the end of the line, follow the Nine Springs of the Netherworld.
Then fill in a thousand people under each water spring, which is called a thousand soul mounds.
I remembered that Xu Wanjun had just said that Cai Heqi would be with the corpse forever, and I thought that Cai Heqi must have been killed and buried under one of the springs now.
Han Yu went on to say to us, the souls of the dead will be angry if they are pressed under the water spring for a long time, and if the caster drops his own blood into the water spring, the formation will be activated, and the time will be ......
I saw that Han Yu paused here and asked anxiously.
"What will happen then?"
"At that time, the Seven Sect Spirits of the Six Heavens of Luo Yu will be summoned!" The prince's fingers stopped on the rosary and said lightly.
"It turns out that you also know the Taoist formation." Han Yu glanced at the prince and sighed heavily.
"Once the evil poison of the Soul Gathering Array summons the Seven Spirits of the Six Heavens of Luo Xu, it will inevitably devour the soul and kill him, and his resentment will be difficult to calm down, and he can only suck the soul to calm his anger, and then the hell on earth will be full of mourning." The prince's eyes looked at Xu Wanjun compassionately, and said righteously. "That's definitely not the world you want, you don't know what you're doing at all, Suzaku is using you."
Xu Wanjun smiled faintly and finally parked on the last water spring, Han Yu was dumbfounded and wanted to stop it, but unfortunately it was too late, Xu Wanjun's blood dripped inside, and in an instant, the blood water in the nine springs sprayed out like a water dragon, and the blood rain in the sky fell shockingly towards the depths of the dark abyss.
Bang!
Suddenly, there was a heavy roar from the ground, and then the platform we were standing on began to shake like a mountain, and Xu Wanjun looked around and smiled ecstatically.
"I didn't expect you to know, but it seems that Suzaku didn't lie to me, hahaha, everything I want is about to come true."
"You don't understand what Zongling Qifei is at all, and you don't know what Zongling Qifei you summoned will do, the world you want is just an illusory imagination, and what Zongling Qifei will bring you is real death." With a solemn face, the prince took off the rosary in his hand and said.
Han Yu slowly put down the hand that wanted to block Xu Wanjun, the peach wood sword had been slowly pulled out by him, he took a deep breath and said lightly to Xu Wanjun.
"Suzaku didn't lie to you, but I think Suzaku forgot to tell you, anyone who activates the Soul Gathering Array will be sacrificed to the array, and the summoned Zongling Seven is not the first to suck the soul is you, this is the real reason why Suzaku asked you to start the formation, you are Suzaku's last chess piece!"
