Chapter 2 The Lonely City on the Sea

The sea breeze on the face feels a little damp and uncomfortable, but Huihui enjoys it. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info she said excitedly: "Great, finally see Miss again!" ”

Then she seemed to think of something, and asked the Yin Master: "Yin Gongzi, did you come back suddenly this time, is there something wrong?" ”

The Yin Lord smiled faintly: "Sort of." ”

"Something to do with the ghost heart?"

The Yin Lord nodded.

Huihui's face darkened: "It turns out that you didn't want Miss to come back." ”

As soon as these words came out, Huo Liuli's face on the side was slightly unnatural. The Yin Lord chuckled lightly and said, "Sister Huihui, you know it. ”

Sighing helplessly, Huihui was not in the mood to continue to say anything more on this topic: "It's afternoon, and we won't be able to find Hades until the evening, let's find a place to rest first." ”

Huo Liuli looked around: "This is in the vast sea, where is there any rest. ”

"Go to the sea." Huihui said it for granted.

Huo Liuli couldn't help but raise her eyebrows: "Sister Huihui, you won't be ridiculing me, right?" The sea doesn't look like normal, what if it's dangerous? ”

"Of course there are dangers."

Huihui chuckled and said, "Fire Maiden, do you remember the last time you came?" ”

After frowning and recalling carefully, Huo Liuli said: "I only remember that as soon as I came in, I sank into the Stygian Sea, I swam, swam, swam to the shore in a daze, and as soon as I looked up, I saw the Underworld. ”

Squatting down and gently picking up a handful of seawater with his hand, Huihui said: "The sea is not normal seawater, but the 'water aversion' formed by the condensation of people's grievances after death. This water contains nine points of yin qi, and the flesh of the living is rotten when touched, since you were soaked in it at that time, do you know how you survived? ”

Looking at the seawater that wet his shoes, Huo Liuli's heart trembled and asked, "I don't know, what's going on?" ”

Smiling and holding a handful of disgusting water, Huihui said, "That's because you also have a drop of ghost blood in your body." ”

"What?!" Huo Liuli's eyes widened in disbelief, "How is this possible, I don't even know myself!" ”

Huihui said, "Of course you don't know. Back then, when you secretly followed Yin Gongzi into the Stygian Sea, you should have melted here immediately. However, my young lady sensed your arrival and was worried that you would die innocently, so she injected a drop of ghost blood into your body. ”

After a pause, she said, "After this drop of ghost blood enters your body, you have the breath of death in your body, so you can be like a fish in water in this lifeless world." Moreover, why do you think you have cultivated by leaps and bounds to become a quasi-impermanence of the Fire Family? It's all the reason for that drop of blood. ”

Huo Liuli was silent and didn't say a word. Instead, the Yin Lord opened his mouth and said, "Okay, Sister Huihui, don't mention it for such a long time." ”

Hearing this, Huihui pursed her lips very dissatisfied: "I just want to tell the fire girl what happened, don't forget that when she broke into the underworld, she also stabbed my young lady with a sword, you are good, you are dedicated to protecting her." Hey, forget it, I won't mention these old things, I'll go down and play for a while. With that, she leaped into the sea like a fish.

Shaking his head a little speechlessly, the Yin Lord said, "Let's go down too." ”

Huo Liuli hesitated a little: "How can it go on like this?" Aren't we stepping on the sea now? ”

The Yin Lord smiled and said, "It's very simple, you just need to close your eyes and imagine this place as real sea water. ”

"Really?" Huo Liuli was a little suspicious, but looking at the serious appearance of the Yin Lord, he decided to give it a try.

She closed her eyes, silently thinking about the sea, and then overlapped the sea in her memory with the scene here. Then, she felt a softness under her feet, and the whole person fell into the sea.

After the whole person sank into the sea, she was a little flustered, and opened her arms to struggle to swim up. But when she subconsciously took a breath, she realized that she didn't feel drowning at all, she didn't feel difficult to breathe at all, and it felt like she was born to live in water.

From behind her, Huihui swam over happily like a mermaid and smiled at her and said, "How is it, it doesn't feel bad, right?" ”

Huo Liuli tried, and he was able to speak under the water, and when the sea water gushed into his mouth, the exhaled breath would automatically separate as soon as he came into contact with it, which looked very weird. She was curious: "This Stygian Sea is really interesting, and it's quite comfortable in it." ”

Turning over happily, Hui Hui explained: "This Stygian Sea is actually the ocean in the world of death, and if you have ghost blood in your body, it is equivalent to a creature on the edge of the two worlds of life and death, so you can adapt to the environment on both sides." ”

After listening to what she said, Huo Liuli nodded thoughtfully, then looked around, and said, "Hey? What about the Yin Lord? ”

Huihui looked around, but found no trace of him, and thought for a while: "He may be watching a mirage." ”

"Huh?" Huo Liuli's eyes widened, "Is there a mirage here too?" ”

Holding her head and thinking about it, Huihui frowned and said, "Actually, it can't be said to be called a mirage, and I don't know what it should be called." From time to time, the Stygian Sea will turn over the things that happened to us, as if it were a memory, and then we can see some illusory scenes on the sea, just like a movie in the world of living people. ”

Huo Liuli couldn't help but be surprised: "This Stygian Sea has a memory?" ”

"Of course," Hui Hui's face was full of reason, "this Stygian Sea is born of resentment from the living, so every drop of seawater has some memories left in people's lives, and when they are gathered here, they become the memories of the Stygian Sea." ”

Only then did Huo Liuli understand, and she said with some excitement: "I want to see it too!" With that, he swam up with his arms swinged.

When she put her head out of the sea, she saw the Yin Lord sitting alone on the sea, and in the distance, there was a huge black shadow entrenched there.

Sitting back on the surface of the sea, there was not a single water stain on Huo Liuli's body, and she asked curiously, "This is the memory of the Styx?" ”

The Yin Lord shook his head: "No. ”

"What's that?" She continued.

Pointing to the dark shadow, the Yin Lord said, "That's the city of the underworld. ”

"Huh? No way? Huo Liuli was a little surprised, "It looks so vague, it doesn't look like an entity." ”

The Yin Lord smiled and said, "It is now approaching evening, and the city of the underworld will slowly be revealed, and when night falls, it will truly descend on the Underworld." ”

Huo Liuli nodded, looking at the black shadow in the distance that could only see the outline clearly, a little fascinated.

At this time, Huihui also showed her head, and when she saw the black shadow, her face suddenly smiled: "Look, that's the underworld!" ”

The Yin Lord smiled and said, "See." Sister Huihui, you can really go home soon. ”

Huihui nodded excitedly and said, "I've been in the world for five years, I really miss Miss Death!" ”

She then asked the Yin Master: "Yin Gongzi, when you said that when you saw Miss, would she not recognize you?" ”

Hearing this, the Yin Lord was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "It's very likely." ”

"The last time you were in Styx was five years ago, when you were a kid. But now, in the blink of an eye, you've grown up. Huihui remembered the past and couldn't help but sigh a little.

The Yin Lord was full of black lines in his head and said, "Please, I was not young at that time, okay?" It's not a little kid. ”

"Oh?" Huihui's face was full of pleasure, "Okay, Yin Gongzi has grown up and started to save face, and he can't stand the ridicule." ”

Rolling her eyes helplessly, the Yin Lord simply ignored her, closed her eyes and blew the wind quietly.

At this time, the sky had begun to become darker and darker, and Huo Liuli said, "It's going to be dark soon, are we going to go over now?" ”

The Yin Lord shook his head: "No, wait until nightfall, the underworld will change its direction, and it may not appear where it will appear before it completely descends." ”

Huo Liuli nodded, looking at the underworld's eyes with a little confusion.

She asked, "You say, there is not an island in the vast Stygian Sea, not even a reef, is this Underworld too lonely?" ”

The Yin Lord nodded: "Yes, there is no other life here except us, and the Underworld has existed silently for no longer than us, and it is a veritable lonely city." ”

At this time, Huihui suddenly said: "Actually, Miss is more lonely. ”

Hearing this, the Yin Lord became silent, and Huo Liuli didn't look at it.

Feeling that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Huihui immediately smiled and said, "Actually, it's nothing, I'll come back to accompany Miss more in the future." ”

After being silent for a long time, the Yin Lord spoke: "Sister Huihui." ”

"Huh?"

"You say," the Yin Lord hesitated, not knowing whether he should ask his question or not, "You say, shouldn't I have come here in the first place?" ”

Huihui felt a little difficult to answer this question: "I can't say that, since I met you, Miss has been very happy every day." ”

But the Yin Lord's face was still gloomy: "But, I'm going to die after all." ”

Huihui was stunned, looked at him, and then fell silent.

The Yin Lord continued, "No matter how high my cultivation is, and no matter how young I am now, I am a mortal person after all. I will be born, old, sick and die, and sooner or later I will end my life in the real world and fall into samsara...... But Hanyan is different, she will always exist in this space, stay in this lonely city forever, endlessly. ”

"She was here when I wasn't here, no change, no sense of time; I came, she smiled, and began to have joys and sorrows. If one day I disappear forever, will her life ever return to its original uneventful state? ”

His lips pale slightly: "I wonder if I was right or wrong to come here in the first place?" (To be continued.) )
