From the moment I saw Ye Daining, I had a faint sense of foreboding. His appearance was sudden, and it seemed very abnormal. Before he spoke, I imagined several purposes for which he was looking for me, but after thinking about it for a long time, I was wrong, he came to me to go to the underworld.

I didn't speak, my heart was in turmoil, in order to hide my emotions, I had been busy in the kitchen, boiling water for a long time, making two cups of Tieguanyin and serving it.

Ye Daining leaned on the sofa and did not drink water, the exhaustion on his face was very obvious.

"You jumped into the coffin that day, and then what happened? What's in the coffin? "I digressed from what I had just said and found a new starting point.

Ye Daining rubbed his eyes and said, "I went to the underworld and made an agreement with Xiao Mu. Xiao Mu's situation is more peculiar, you can't understand it, he is now half human and half ghost, and his soul resides in a certain Yin Temple in the underworld, worshipping the king of Jizo. I made a deal with him, and he helped you out of the siege, and I took his place, leaving his soul in the temple, and he was freed. The I you see now is an incomplete soul, and I have one soul and three souls that are still in the underworld. ”

I was about to drink the tea, but when I heard this, my hands trembled, and the hot tea spilled out.

Ye Daining's expression was very serious: "There are a few things I have to tell you." Hades, you have to go, and there are two things you need to do. First, go to the underworld to relieve my soul; The second is to enter the eighteenth layer of hell, and the infernal hell of the last layer unlocks the seal and releases the bell. He said in a gentle tone: "Liu Yang, don't blame me for being heavy-mouthed, you have a special karma, this calamity should be within the cause and effect, and you can only do these two things!" ”

I took a sip of bitter tea and smiled bitterly: "It's not impossible for me to go, but I don't understand anything, and I will cover my head after I go." I don't care, I'm just afraid of delaying your big things. ”

Ye Daining said: "There is a fate in this, if you can't do it, others can't do it." There are unpredictable causes and conditions, even I can't see clearly, but I know that you will succeed. ”

Having said that, I imagined the underworld in my mind, and I had no clue at all. I sighed, "Okay, when are we going to start?" ”

Ye Daining arranged the place for this walk. The location is said to be a villa of his friend. The villa is built in the middle of nowhere, and the surrounding land is not developed, and there is only one house alone. The back is against the barren mountain, which is very desolate.

This place is used to walk in the shade, but it is also unique.

Friends have arrived, Li Yang, Tongsuo, Qin Dan, Wang Xiaoyu, everyone, everyone knows that I want to go to the underworld, and they all come to see me off, making it like parting with life and death. Especially Wang Xiaoyu was crying and crying, which made my heart troubled.

The hall of the villa has been cleaned up, and a large area has been vacated, and a large ghost drawing rune pattern is painted on the ground with cinnabar. Ye Daining said, this is the Yin Array, which connects the two worlds of Yin and Yang, and is the Ghost Gate, so I will go from here when the time comes.

In the Yin array, eight long red and white waxes were placed in eight directions, such as southeast, northwest, etc. I also have to prepare before I do it. I stripped naked and wore only a pair of red trousers, Ye Daining used a cinnabar pen to draw a lot of patterns on my body, some of these patterns are complicated and some are sketchy, and the common feature is that the strokes are treacherous, and there is a kind of ghost spirit when connected.

Now wait for it to get dark, and as soon as the sun sets, you will start doing it.

I'm now covered in weird and eerie patterns all over my body, like many ants crawling on my skin, not to mention the discomfort. The thought that I was about to go to yin made my scalp numb, my whole body was weak, and I was restless.

To be honest, I have experienced so many dangerous and unbelievable events before, but there is always a feeling that I will definitely be able to get through it without danger. And today, there is an inexplicable sense of panic, in my heart, empty, as if I can't step on the ground.

I looked at Ye Daining and asked him if he was going with me?

A smile appeared on Ye Daining's pale face, he shook his head and said, I can only rely on yourself this time, I will not go with you.

I muttered, "I don't know that place in the underworld either, and there is no one to lead the way, so what if I get lost?" ”

There was also a man standing next to Ye Daining, probably in his thirties. According to Ye Daining, this person's surname is Gao, he is his friend, and he is now working as a psychiatrist. This person is very silent, he hasn't spoken much since he came here, but Ye Daining's attitude towards him is very respectful, and he can be considered a master.

Lao Gao said: "Liu Yang is right, this time the yin is not the usual view of the yin, but the soul goes together, which is no different from dying once." He will inevitably go from the clear water pool, as soon as he enters the pool and washes away the dust of the world, he will forget any memory, so it is better to make an introduction mark for him. ”

Ye Daining nodded and handed him the cinnabar pen upside down. Lao Gao took my left hand, groaned slightly, and wrote the word "bell" and the word "ning" in the palm of my hand.

"Liu Yang, when you get over there, if you can't think of anything, just look at the palm of your hand, it will guide you." Lao Gao said.

I was so confused that I didn't say anything into my ears, but subconsciously said yes.

Lao Gao said: "In that place in the underworld, everyone has different relationships and sees different scenes, no matter what you experience there, remember one. ”

I look at him.

Lao Gao said: "Keep your heart, be kind, and be yourself." ”

The last ray of sunlight was swallowed up by darkness, and the villa suddenly went dark, and everyone was in a shadow, and I felt that their eyes seemed to be sad.

I looked at everyone, and my eyes fell on Wang Xiaoyu. I reached out and touched her face, Wang Xiaoyu held my hand back, and tears of bean size flowed out.

"Let's go." I said to Ye Daining.

We came down from the second floor and went straight to the lobby on the first floor. I sat in the middle of the formation, and Ye Daining asked Li Yang and Tong Suo to stand outside the formation with a mirror in their hands, one on my left and one on the right. My body was reflected in the mirror.

Qin Dan lit the eight long waxes, there was no wind in the dark hall, and the flames burned straight up, making a crackling slight popping sound.

Ye Daining and Lao Gao glanced at each other and nodded to each other. Ye Daining took out a delicate sandalwood box, the hollow texture on it was extremely complex, and the pattern was exquisite, and it looked like the thing at the bottom of the box.

I'm nervous, I've seen the yin thing before, it's not so complicated, I can walk with a black cloth on my face. Why is this battle so big today, Ye Daining invited all the magic weapons at the bottom of the box to come out. My heart was pounding, my gums were itching, and I was out of business. But things have come to this point, and it is impossible not to go.

Ye Daining opened the box, and inside was a tube of short brushes. This pen is only the length of an adult's middle finger, and the hair spike at the front end actually occupies half the length. I've never seen such a strange pen. Ye Daining took out the pen, put his hands in front of his forehead, knelt on the ground, faced the southeast, and kowtowed twice.

After completing this step, he solemnly handed over the pen to Lao Gao.

Lao Gao took the pen, concentrated, and breathed a sigh of relief for a long time. He picked up a box of colorful dyes and walked into the formation, and came to me: "Liu Yang, close your eyes." ”

Before I closed my eyes, I saw him use that brush, dipped in dye, and send it straight to my face. When I closed my eyes, I felt the tip of a thin brush walking on my face.

I was scared that he was putting me on makeup.

My heart was beating faster, damn, this old man wouldn't be in the funeral home to put makeup on the dead, I couldn't stop shaking. Lao Gao's deep voice sounded in his ears: "Liu Yang, don't be afraid. You must remember that no matter where you go, who you see, or what you have experienced, you must keep your heart and kindness, and then you will definitely be able to come back. ”

I clenched my hands tightly, knowing that this walk would be the biggest test of my life.

The nib stops. Lao Gao whispered, "Are you ready, let's go!" ”

As soon as I blurted out the last two words, I felt him hit my head, and a hot breath seemed to pour into my head. I was already nervous, and when I was slapped by him like this, I couldn't sit still, and I fell to the ground.

For a long time, there was no sound in my ears, and I was a little scared, and said in a trembling voice, "Is there anyone?" Old high? Old leaves? ”

After waiting for a while, there was no sound at all, and the silence around was goosebumps. My brain buzzed, damn, I won't really go to the underworld.

I swallowed: "I'm open!" ”

Still no one spoke, and then something strange happened, and I actually heard the sound of rushing water not far away. My heart fluttered, and I slowly opened my eyes.

It took me a long time to see the scenery clearly, and I realized that I was actually on the outskirts of the city. This place is all too familiar, this is one of the famous attractions in our city, in the middle of which is a huge ancient pond with an arched wooden bridge on top. It is said that this bridge was built in the Tang Dynasty, quite historical, and was interpreted as a lover bridge by urban men and women, and many men and women have to walk around the bridge deck here, drawing an auspicious picture. I don't know who invented it, and I also fastened the concentric lock on the bridge to indicate that I will never be united.

I was here with Wang Xiaoyu a few days ago. It's weird, I was in the villa, why didn't I suddenly appear in this place?

I was walking on the bridge, when dusk had passed, the sky was dark, and there was a faint cloud-like mist floating on the pool, which seemed very mysterious.

I held on to the bridge and looked around, but I couldn't see a single figure. This is not normal. The liveliest part of the place is even at night, when the bridgehead is lit up with lanterns, reflecting the still water, sparkling and unreal. There will be many couples who are looking for romance, walking hand in hand on the bridge at night.

I looked left and right, back and forth, and I really couldn't see anyone, and my heart was a little hairy.

At this moment, two figures faintly walked on the bridge. Because the fog was too big, I couldn't see clearly, and the figure gradually became clear when I got closer. It was actually Ye Daining and that old Gao.

I hurriedly walked over, and I was about to cry: "Two brothers, why did we get here, let's go home quickly." ”

I've already deduced that I must have been hypnotized by them when I was doing the trick and was brought to this place by them in a daze. I can't guess what they're going to do, I don't want to guess, I want to go home now.

Lao Gao and Ye Daining looked at each other and smiled, and Lao Gao said, "Don't worry, send you back." ”

They sandwiched me between the left and the right, and we walked along the bridge. Normally the bridge wasn't that long, but now it seems like there's no end to it.

It took us a long time to get out of the fog and come to the bridge. Reflecting the moonlight, the sparkling waves below, the pool water is black and deep, making people dizzy to see.

Ye Daining patted me: "Liu Yang, look what it is." ”

At the head of the bridge, there is a stone tablet half a person high, and the stele is engraved with three large characters in the official book with red characters: Qingshui Pool.

I'm scratching my head, clear water pool? I think I've heard who said, what kind of place is this?

Lao Gao said: "Let's give you a ride, let's go." ”

He suddenly reached out and pushed, I didn't expect him to do it, he was unsteady on his feet, fluttered twice in the air, still lost his balance and fell into the deep pool.
