Thirteenth Night: The Netherworld
"Then you can come with me. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info "Old Ghost Xue made this decision after careful consideration.
Zhao Yao followed Old Ghost Xue to Old Ghost Xue's dilapidated house.
Zhao Yao looked around, and there were many different charms and unintelligible words on the walls.
There are also a few old antiques on the table, and the room is dark with little light.
"Mr. Xue, do you have any relatives?" Zhao Yao asked curiously.
"No, it's better for people like us who work not to have a family, so as not to get into trouble." When he asked about his relatives, he was asked about the sore spot in Old Ghost Xue's heart, and he remembered Yanyan.
"Why?" Zhao Yao didn't realize that Old Ghost Xue's mood was wrong, and he was still curious.
"When we summon ghosts, we may encounter evil spirits, and once we do, the chances of coming back are very small."
At that moment, Zhao Yao saw helplessness and loneliness from Old Ghost Xue's demeanor. Therefore, Old Ghost Xue still loves Xu Ye more and regards her as his granddaughter.
Old Ghost Xue beckoned Zhao Yao to sit down, and immediately got to the point.
"If the living want to go to the underworld, there is a way."
As he spoke, Old Ghost Xue took out a delicate box from the drawer, which contained an unknown herb. It looks precious, otherwise it wouldn't be so well packaged.
"This herb can make people fake their death, and it takes effect immediately. You will naturally wake up after two hours, and you must look for the pestle as fast as possible during these two hours, otherwise, once the time is over, you will not be able to come back. ”
Old Ghost Xue explained simply, and he was still holding the herbs he took out in his hand.
"What else?"
"This is an imaginary picture of returning the spirit pestle, whether you find it or not, you have to come back, don't insist on it inside."
"What? Hypothetical diagrams? Does it mean you haven't seen that thing? ”
"What? If you don't want to forget it, I won't force you. ”
"No, I do. Well, hurry up. ”
Zhao Yao stretched out his hand to take the herbs, and Old Ghost Xue's hand shrank.
"Very precious! If I hadn't seen that you had the courage to do anything for the sake of my beloved disciples, I wouldn't give it to others! You must know that I regard Xu Ye as my own granddaughter. ”
Zhao Yao was completely speechless by this old ghost Xue.
"Alright, alright, give it to me."
"Wait, you take an hourglass with you. There is no time probability in the Netherworld, where the watch is completely invalid. ”
Old Ghost Xue said as if he had been to the underworld.
"Okay."
Zhao Yao sat on the bed.
"Are you ready?"
"yes, alright."
"You still have a chance to regret it." Old Ghost Xue finally gave Zhao Yao a chance.
Zhao Yao took the herb and was stunned for a while, but still chose to eat it.
1...2...3...
It really took effect immediately, Zhao Yao slept on the bed, no breathing, no heartbeat, no pulse.
Zhao Yao came to a wet place with an hourglass in his hand, like a cave, but it was terrifying. The ground was covered with bones, and it was pitch black all around, but through the faint green light, you could still see a little. This should be the Netherworld. As soon as Zhao Yao took a few steps, he felt that the ground was hot, and when he looked down, he saw that there was magma underneath. If it falls, the ghost will melt!
Zhao Yao was scared when he thought of this, and hurriedly strode forward.
"Who?!" A sharp voice came into Zhao Yao's ears, and he knew that the person was calling him, because there was no one else here, and for the Netherworld, Zhao Yao was an outsider.
Zhao Yao turned around, only to see that the man was dressed like an ancient catcher, and he was still holding a chain a few centimeters thick in his hand. How heavy does that have to be! The face is like a dead man's makeup, and it is ugly. gave Zhao Yao a visual impact.
"I... I..."Zhao Yao didn't know what reason to make up to deal with him.
"You're dead, aren't you? Over there, the direction you're walking is the Returning Spirit Pool. ”
"Oh... Thank you..."
The man turned and walked in the opposite direction.
"Returning the Spirit Pool... Return the spirit pestle..."Zhao Yao muttered, how could he report it, then it would prove that he was really dead! Thinking about it, he walked towards the Spirit Pool. I really have to thank that ghost, otherwise I don't know where to go.
Seeing the hourglass pass little by little, we have to hurry.
Zhao Yao kept walking forward, saw a smoking pool of water, and thought that was it, I didn't expect it to be found so easily, and there was hope to save Xu Ye!
Before he could step in, he was stopped by two people who looked similar to the one just now.
"You're here to revive your spirits?"
"Uh-huh." Zhao Yao replied without thinking about it.
Returning the spirit refers to the mistake of the underworld, mistakenly putting the undeserving person on the dead list, and this spirit pond is the place where the spirit pestle is stored. As long as you nail the pestle to your head, you can be reborn.
"Name, I'll verify." His tone is like the fast arrest of a prison in a costume drama.
"Zhang... Daniel Zhang. "Zhao Yaohu made up a name.
One ghost went to check, and the other looked at him.
"Why is there something wrong with the underworld?" Zhao Yao deliberately asked another stupid-looking ghost.
"I don't know, I just have to do my own thing."
Zhao Yao had a wit.
"My family is old and young, and my mother and children must be very sad to think that I am dead. So many people die every day, I don't know when to find out, you help him together, so hurry up, and my mother is not in good health, what if there is a mistake! Zhao Yao played a bitter love scene.
"That's so pitiful, don't worry, I'll help him find it."
Zhao Yao was trembling in his heart, and he was grateful. This fool is too easy to be fooled.
Zhao Yao tiptoed to get a return pestle, and suddenly thought of how he could go back! Old Ghost Xue didn't say anything, thought about it, and took two spirit pestles. Heh, this thing is pretty heavy. Zhao Yao was trying to sneak out.
"What are you doing here, watching him go, stupid!"
"Uh-oh." As soon as the ghost turned around, he saw Zhao Yao who was about to escape, Zhao Yao noticed the abnormality, stopped all his movements, and smiled awkwardly at the stupid ghost.
"Big brother, he took two spirit pestles."
"Fool! Get him! ”
Zhao Yao immediately ran away, and the ghost chased after him. Soon, there were four or five more ghosts chasing him.
Zhao Yao was tired and out of breath, and he was about to catch up, Zhao Yao looked at the hourglass in his hand, there was still half an hour.
A ghost attacked Zhao Yao with a chain, and Zhao Yao instinctively reacted and reached out to block.
Ha! The ghost charm has worked! Those ghosts retreated one after another, very afraid of the golden light emitted by the ghost descending talisman.
Zhao Yao ran forward without saying anything, and those desperate ghosts were still chasing.
I used the ghost charm again, but it didn't respond!
Ten minutes to go.
It's over, it's over, it's over, how did this time pass so quickly, and you really want to stay in this hellish place?
Now there's only one way! It's all dead anyway, try it!
He stabbed the pestle into his head with all his might, and there was no bleeding, no wound, as if it had melted into it.
A flash of light flashed, and Zhao Yao was back!
