Chapter 882: Hades Soup Porridge for Diamonds [No. 209 Hundred]
Mr. Lu once guided me to practice the out-of-body method, although I didn't study and practice very hard, but in the contact with the little ghost, I gradually found some methods.
Although not very skilled. But with a lot of effort, it can always be done.
I sat cross-legged on the ground, and my soul slowly emerged from my body.
It's like a general on the battlefield who has discarded his armor. I felt like I couldn't be much more relaxed without my body, and at the same time it was a lot more dangerous.
I looked around. The bodies of the three of us were found in a row, sitting on the ground in almost the same position. Mr. Lu pointed at the old man and said, "Let's go, the old man has already started dreaming." ”
The three of us clasped hands and walked lightly towards Old Man Wang.
It's like diving. We plunged into the old man's dreams. After a short period of discomfort, I got used to the environment.
When I opened my eyes, I saw cracked fields, scorched leafless tree trunks, and the scorching sun in the sky.
I don't know why, but I suddenly felt a wave of hunger in my stomach, and I wanted to eat something.
I think Mr. Lu said, "It's really weird, didn't we just have dinner?" How did I get hungry so fast? ”
Xue Qian said beside her: "Lao Zhao." It's not just you who are hungry, I'm hungry too. ”
Mr. Lu pointed not far away and said, "Can you not be hungry?" Look. Everyone is begging for food. I forgot to look over there, and sure enough, there was a group of Hanako, walking slowly on the road.
I said, "It's weird, what does it have to do with us when Old Man Wang is begging for food in his dream?" Why do we feel hungry? We've been in other people's dreams before. But this has never been the case. ”
Mr. Lu smiled and said, "Old Man Wang's obsession is too deep, so it affects the people who fall asleep. This happens rarely, but it's not impossible. ”
Xue Qian said: "The Heavenly Maiden is holding a white porcelain bowl to help Old Man Wang beg for food. And now we see the beggar again, and it seems that if we follow this clue, we will soon see the two of them. Let's keep up with the queue asking for food. ”
Mr. Lu nodded, and said as he walked, "It's okay to follow these called Hanako." When someone gives alms to eat, we can also get a bite. ”
Xue Qian looked at Mr. Lu in surprise: "Are we going to beg for food too?" ”
Mr. Lu said as a matter of course: "Of course we have to beg for food, otherwise we will starve to death here?" ”
Xue Qian said: "How many hours can Old Man Wang sleep this night?" When he woke up. Let's go. What's the point of starving for a few extra hours? ”
Mr. Lu smiled and shook his head, and said, "It's not that simple. In dreams, time is not uniform, sometimes it is very slow, and when you wake up, you find that only a few minutes have passed outside. Sometimes it goes by quickly, and you feel like you've been in a dream for a few minutes, and then you wake up and the night has passed. ”
Xue Qian looked at me with a smile and said, "I understand this." Lao Zhao once stayed with Sister Hua in the dream of a pregnant woman, and the two of them tossed vigorously for nearly a year from love to breakup, but outside, less than a month passed. ”
Xue Qian began to uncover my scars again. And I smiled helplessly and said, "Old Xue, you'd better think about how to beg for food." lest you starve to death here. ”
We followed the begging queue all day. My stomach was empty, and my legs were sore. Until nightfall, I saw neither the old man nor the goddess. Didn't see anything to eat.
The whole land was dry, and we stepped on the ground, bringing up a lot of dust. The dust is on our faces, and we are disgraced.
It is estimated that if we follow the beggar for another day, we will really become begging for food.
At nightfall, the beggars lit a bonfire and went to sleep in a circle.
For drought, the last thing that is lacking is firewood. For hungry people, the easiest thing to do is to sleep.
The beggars fell asleep, but we couldn't. This is a dream of Mr. Wang, and the three of us can't always stay in the dream.
Mr. Lu said, "Let's walk around and see if we can find anything." ”
I said yes and followed Mr. Lu around the area. The three of us walked for a while as if we were walking. Suddenly, I saw a small fire in front of me.
The light of the fire was small, and it shone on a human figure. The man crouched on the ground, as if he were lighting a fire.
I received, "Could this person be Mr. Wang?" ”
The three of us quickened our pace and walked over to this man. I patted him on the shoulder and said, "Is that you?" ”
The man slowly turned his head and asked in a hoarse voice, "What's the matter?" ”
I was startled when I saw that this man had a wrinkled face, and that it was an old lady. I laughed dryly and said, "I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person." ”
The old lady agreed lightly and continued to light the fire. I saw her fill the fire with paper money cut from shredded paper.
I asked, "Are you burning paper for your loved ones?" ”
The old lady shook her head and said, "Ninety out of ten people here are dead. My relatives are all dead, today I will burn paper for them, tomorrow I don't know who will burn paper for me. So ......"
When the old lady said this, she laughed, looked at me with a smile on her face, and said, "So, this money is burned for myself." When he was alive, he burned some paper money, and when he died, he still had some money to spend in the underworld. ”
The old lady's voice was so eerie that I shuddered involuntarily. Then I heard countless voices from all directions saying, "This money is burned for myself." ”
These voices are miserable, clearly the voices of imps. I looked up, looked around, and was startled.
I saw beggars on all sides, all kneeling on the ground, burning paper money, and every time they burned it, they had to look up at us, as if the collective paper money burning was a performance, just for us to see.
I was shocked by this scene, and I was a little frightened. Mr. Lu said beside him: "Don't care about these bizarre scenes. We are in the dream of the old man Wang, and it is not strange that such an unbelievable thing appears. ”
I nodded, and was about to answer, when suddenly someone in the distance shouted, "The soup kitchen is here." ”
Then I saw a large wooden barrel like a hill, which was being pushed by a wooden cart. I don't know how many pounds this huge car and huge barrel weighed. It kept advancing, rolling on the ground, rumbling like thunder.
I saw the man of the cart with a hateful face, with a bull's head and a horse's face tattooed on his chest. And the person who sits high on the top of the barrel and keeps scooping porridge is the judge.
I was speechless and said, "This is the soup porridge of Lord Yama, after drinking this bowl of porridge, can you still have it?" ”
Mr. Lu said, "Let's leave it alone, let's see what they are going to do." ”
Ten minutes later, the barrel bottomed out. Most of the beggars received food, and they drank it with great pity.
After a while, they fell to the ground in a daze. I saw that these people had black skins, apparently poisoned.
And the ox-headed horse face of the soup kitchen showed a treacherous smile. He took out the iron rope from the top of the cart, hooked out the souls of the private people one by one, and beat them with a leather whip, pressing them into the distance. Indulge in the middle.
I saw those little ghosts pitifully and said, "Brother Cha, where are you going to send us?" When you get to the place, can you give you a bite to eat? ”
Xue Qian sighed: "The little ghosts here are interesting, they were all poisoned by the soup kitchen, and they still want to eat." ”
At this time, I heard a voice behind me say viciously: "It's good to poison you, hehe, it's good to poison you." ”
I looked and found that it was a young beggar who had spoken this. The beggar, dressed in tatters, was shuttling back and forth among the corpses, trying to pick up the dead man's bowl.
However, the bowls were intact when they were held by the dead, and once they were picked up, they were torn apart.
I saw that this young man was none other than an old man who was dozens of years younger. And he was cursing while looking for a job
