Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Soul Doesn't Return to the Body
It was pitch black in the Lechuan River, and Tang Yichuan was surrounded by the screams and wails of countless ghosts, who were unwilling to fall into the Lethe River, and struggled hard but could not get rid of this foul-smelling river.
No, he didn't like it very much.
Tang Yichuan had a deep feeling of fear, and that feeling of fear was like a sharp knife on his heart, and then grinding it one by one, it was so tormenting.
Fear, he was very afraid, it was a fear that came from the heart, as if he had been bound under the water, he couldn't see any light, he couldn't breathe, he couldn't open his eyes, loneliness surrounded him, he was going crazy.
The strength on his feet became bigger and bigger, and the slippery and greasy feeling seemed to be entangled by a yellow eel, Tang Yichuan struggled as hard as he could, he didn't want to enter the bottom of the Lechuan River!
His struggle became weak, he had already entered the deep water, he never knew that the Lethe River was so deep, he could not see any light, only felt the cold, it was like a suffocating feeling.
No, maybe suffocation was more comfortable, he was suffering, in the cold to the bones, in the darkness of the environment to endure the torment that could make people go crazy, the feeling of restraint, so that he could not continue to struggle.
I don't know how long it was, the cold had soaked his limbs, he couldn't move, he couldn't open his eyes, but he was still conscious, suddenly, Tang Yichuan felt his body turn in a circle, and then he seemed to be floating in the deepest part of the water, and was sinking deeper and deeper little by little.
There is a glimmer of light, which is gradually approaching.
The light began to become clearer, Tang Yichuan's body suddenly stopped, just suspended in the water, his eyes widened as much as he could, and Tang Yichuan's heart felt like it was slammed.
The light came from an ice coffin, which exuded a cold coffin with a faint white light, and a young man inside the coffin had his eyes closed.
The outer part of the coffin is tied with an iron chain with the thickness of the arm, and the gods can't come out of it.
It's him!
Tang Yichuan looked at the person inside the coffin in a daze, it was the young man in his mind! Was he suppressed at the bottom of the Lethe? Who bound him, and why was he bound?
The young man in the coffin suddenly opened his eyes, and the pupils of those eyes were actually golden, and they met Tang Yichuan's gaze.
"What are you doing here!" A cold voice appeared in Tang Yichuan's mind, it was the voice of a teenager, but this voice was much colder than the voice of the teenager in the past, without the slightest emotion.
The golden pupils made Tang Yichuan shudder for some reason, and those eyes were like an abyss, as if they were about to suck Tang Yichuan in.
A huge force seemed to push Tang Yichuan towards the coffin, Tang Yichuan inexplicably had a feeling of resistance, the coffin was filled with a strange aura, as if once it was close, it was equivalent to stepping into the abyss of death.
"Three thousand, three thousand-" Just when Tang Yichuan was almost clinging to the coffin, the sound of a fox calling suddenly came from his ears.
"Fox!" Tang Yichuan opened his mouth, but his throat couldn't make a sound, and he swallowed a mouthful of foul-smelling and icy water violently.
"Three thousand, come back quickly." The fox's voice came again, with a hint of warmth, dispelling the cold around Tang Yichuan.
"Come back soon."
"Three thousand, it's time to come back!"
The fox's voice was repeated over and over again, so soft, Tang Yichuan's consciousness gradually blurred, as if he had been hypnotized, and he was about to fall asleep.
No, he can't fall asleep, he's still on the Lethe embankment!
Tang Yichuan was suddenly startled, and when he opened his eyes again, he only saw an enlarged face looking at him, and the fox pinched Tang Yichuan's fleshless cheeks with both hands, and slapped it twice, "Still alive, Tang Sanqian?" ”
Looking around again, a group of people were looking at him nervously and worriedly, and he was back.
"Where were you just now?" The fox frowned and looked at Tang Yichuan, "I called you for a long time, but you didn't respond to me." ”
"The bottom of the Lethe River." Tang Yichuan said lightly, as soon as he recalled the feeling in the water, he had palpitations, and it was clear that nothing had happened, but he felt that he had always been standing on a cliff ten thousand feet high and could fall into the abyss of death at any time, it was too terrifying, and it could even be said that it was a more terrifying feeling than death.
"If you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer in front of you. This is not unreasonable, if you go to hell in the future, I will never help you. The fox was still angry and sullen, and after a pause, he asked, "What do you see at the bottom of the Lethe River?" ”
"Nothing." Tang Yichuan glanced at the fox and hesitated, but after all, he didn't say what he saw.
Tuoba walked out of the back door, in the middle of the night he found that the villa was brightly lit and had a bad feeling, as soon as he entered the living room, he didn't see anyone, and he was a little nervous, until he heard a sound in the backyard, so he ran into the backyard, and saw that Tang Yichuan and several people were there, and they were all safe and sound, Tuoba finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Su thinks something is wrong with you, let me come over and take a look." Tuoba said, "What are you doing?" ”
"Saving a friend, there is no danger, it's all over." Tang Yichuan said, "It's good to sue Su, it's okay." ”
"Okay." After making sure everything was okay, Tuoba went back.
The fox squinted his narrow eyes and looked at Tang Yichuan for a long time, and the fox said, "Don't go to the Lechuan River in the future, that's not the place you should go." ”
Tang Yichuan felt that the fox seemed to know something, and when he was about to ask the fox, the fox turned around and left, and halfway through, he raised his hand and shook the red rope tied to his wrist twice, and the red rope connected to Tang Yichuan's wrist disappeared.
The fox said, "This rope is connected to the lives of both of us, and if you die, I will die too." If it weren't for it, I wouldn't have been able to call you back, you know, if I hadn't called you back today, you would have sunk to the bottom of the Lethe River forever, and the cold and lonely feeling was uncomfortable, and I would have been wiped out with me. ”
With that, the fox disappeared into the back doorway, and he looked a little angry.
Tang Tang was also a little angry, she felt sorry for Tang Yichuan, so she said angrily: "It's about him." ”
Fusheng nodded with a heavy face like an adult, as if agreeing with the fox's words, "The cold of the Lechuan River is not something ordinary people can imagine, it is a kind of loneliness and cold that is more terrible than death, once you fall in, even if you are conscious, you can't touch any living creatures, which is more terrible than death." ”
The Hades Lord put away all the tools that had been straightened, and then said, "I have to go too, Tang Yichuan, remember, you owe me a favor, and this favor may need you to pay it back at a time." ”
Fusheng looked at the Hades Lord and smiled, "Thank you, Sister Hades." ”
"Okay." Tang Yichuan said neatly, he rarely owes favors to others, but when it is time to repay the favors he owes, he will repay them as much as he can.
The Lord of the Underworld turned around and called out to Flowey, who picked up an oil-paper umbrella and disappeared into the black night with the Lord.
Only then did a group of people think that Gongsun Lan had returned, and it was time for Gongsun Lan's soul to return to its place.
Returned to the living room, Gongsun Lan's body was lying on the sofa unharmed, Gongsun Lan's soul rushed towards his body, but the soul that should have returned to his place penetrated the body and did not return to his body.
Gongsun Lan was stunned for a moment, and the fat man frowned and said, "Why didn't you go back, try again if you are aligned." ”
Gongsun Lan rushed towards his body again, but in the same way, he still only penetrated his body, but did not return to his body.
After repeated attempts like this for more than ten times, Gongsun Lan rushed to his body from various angles, but he never returned, and even flattened his body, letting Gongsun Lan lie in it from top to bottom, and merged with his soul and body, but Gongsun Lan still couldn't return to his position.
"Strange, how can this be?" The fat man walked over and checked Gongsun Lan's body, Gongsun Lan's body didn't have any problems at all, and there was no sign of decay, it was clearly intact, and Gongsun Lan's life span had not come to an end, and her soul should be able to return to its place lightly, but now, Gongsun Lan's body couldn't return to its place!
A group of people, you look at me, I look at you, you don't understand the situation.
Xiao Yu followed Yun Poyue to be considered well-informed, and he guessed: "Is it because the soul has been out of the body for too long, and the body and soul have a rejection reaction, so the soul cannot return to the body?" ”
When Xiao Yu said this, Tang Yichuan and the others were able to understand the situation, and then Ling Xi, who had been standing in the corner, said: "He is right, if the soul has been away from the body for too long, it will be difficult to return to its place, because the body cannot identify whether this soul belongs to its own soul or not. ”
"So what to do?" A group of people all looked at Ling Xi.
"I don't know." Ling Xi shook his head and said.
"To say it is to say nothing." The fat man has no good airway.
"There's a way." Gongsun Lan smiled and didn't try again, it was obviously a problem with his soul and body, he didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, "It's not early, let's rest for one night first, anyway, I still have a few days, and then I can solve the problem before that." ”
"The longer the soul is out of the body, the weaker it becomes." Tang Yichuan said.
"It's okay, as long as you're not dead." Gongsun Lan said, "You have to rest for a night, and when you go to the underworld, you have to adjust your yin qi into your body." ”
Under the persuasion of Gongsun Lan, a group of people no longer insisted, and planned to rest for a night and then find a way to solve Gongsun Lan's problem.
