Chapter 260: The Styx Ghost Will Not Stop, and All Evils Will Survive (1)
The carriage was bumpy all night, and it was not until noon on the second day that it could not be stopped, and when the Supreme Treasure and Yusheng Yan came out of the carriage, they were already so jolted that their bones were about to fall apart. Moving his limbs and neck, looking at the surrounding scenery, he finally reduced the soreness on his body slightly, and the Supreme Treasure bared his teeth and said: "This night is rushing... Tsk, it's fast, it's fast, but people can't stand it - Yan'er, are you okay? ”
"What's good!" Yusheng glanced at him: "Phew! If it weren't for the tight schedule, the ghost would have wanted to move this talisman car... Don't complain! Remember, it's all for you! ”
"Understood, it's all for my business." Supreme Treasure laughed twice, "It's hard work, it's hard work!" I remember your affection, if you have something in the future, I will definitely go to the fire in the water, and I will definitely do it for you... Tell me, what are we going to do next? ”
He saw that the surrounding area was full of mountains and dense forests, and there was no ghost appearance at all, so when he asked, Yusheng Yan nodded, stretched out his hand in the carriage, and took back the Vajra lion of the envoy inside, and then replied:
"The Styx Ghost is a place where you can enter and exit three days a month, and it's midnight, so we have a lot of time... In this case, first go find a farmer's house to store the wagon, and then have something to eat, and then I will take you to find the way and wait, and enter at midnight. ”
"Yes, you just commanded it."
The two of them led the horse slowly, and walked slowly towards the vaguely flat place in the mountains, trying to follow the smoke to find the farmhouse, but after a while, there was no trace of any smoke near here. Even Orion didn't have it, Supreme Treasure muttered in his heart, and couldn't help but ask again:
"Yan'er, it doesn't look like there's anyone here... Are you sure about this, this? ”
"How can you be sure?" Yusheng Yan exclaimed, "Do you think I'm familiar with this place?" To be honest, I'm just like you in this place, it's the first time I've come here, and the ghost knows if there is anyone in Ludao! ”
"Uh..."The Supreme Treasure's eyes widened, and he said in surprise: "Then how did you know the Dao?" That expression was like a bitter master with a face full of grievances after being played with by an immortal, with a pitiful face.
"Guess!" Yusheng Yan told him very bluntly: "The location of this Styx ghost and the use of this talisman car, etc., were all told to me by my mother-in-law when I went out... Nothing to do, nothing to do! This is also the first time I have used this car. Didn't you get to the place yet? You can rest assured. It's all with me! ”
"It's strange to be relieved!" Supreme Treasure complained bitterly in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face: "Okay, good! Don't worry, you're working hard...", his eyes began to roll as he spoke. I looked around - it looked like the trouble of finding someone to store the carriage was too much. I'm not sure for the time being. Forget it, it's better to find a proper place to hide this carriage is the right way.
The Supreme Treasure calculated in his heart and decided that there was no one here. But what they never expected was that the two of them had just turned a mountain pass, but they saw the side of the stream in the distance, and between the mountain passes, a tall banner suddenly appeared, with a big 'set' on it, with a blue background and white edges, which was very distinct in this mountain.
You can vaguely see the appearance of the house below, and it looks not only there, but also very large, like a place that can accommodate a hundred and ten people. "Hell yes, hell yes!" The Supreme Treasure suddenly shouted: "There is also an inn in this kind of ghost place? ”
"Ah, there really is!" Yushengyan's eyes lit up, and he immediately led the carriage towards the mountain pass: "This is it, this is it!" He also patted the ghost ruler between words: "Look, that's what I'm talking about, but you pulled me halfway up the mountain..."
It turned out that this was the end of Yushengyan's preparation, but I didn't think that the King Kong lion couldn't find the way, and the two of them could only be pulled to the mountain... Following the path between the mountains and forests, the two of them finally came to the outside of the inn.
This inn looks very little from afar, but up close, it is not an ordinary farmhouse. The whole inn was built of the logs, the bark of which had not been stripped off, and the thick and large round of logs were used as the walls, and the stakes were placed on the back, so that the walls were firm; Inside is a square courtyard, one side of the horse circle, one side of the house, according to the wall and built very simple, the house is also the most crude rolling through the bunk, just along the wall there is a slip of the bed, and then empty, although the guests can mix a few big children for a night, but the utensils need to be brought; Behind is a two-storey small building made of rough wood, and the staircase is built on the side, which can be directly entered without entering the inn. Below the whole inn is a dining hall, but the food is very rich, beef, fat chicken, roast sheep and wine are all available; There are several separate rooms next to it, with the words 'sell', 'sale', 'dian' and so on.
In the inn he entered, the Supreme Treasure saw the difference in this place, and after a little thought in his heart, he understood the truth - it seems that this place was set up for the walkers of the Styx ghosts, and there were not only food, blades, water, medicine, etc. for adventurers, but also where to buy the things produced in it...
What is this Styx ghost? It's almost the same as the Kunshan cottage I once saw, just like that?
Although there are not many guests in this inn, they all seem to have two hands, and each of them has a sword on his back, like a person who is adventurous and searching, and like a treasure hunter, etc., sitting in groups of three or two, whispering beside them. Seeing the two of them coming in, the sound of the whole hall was silenced, and after a few glances, they all bowed their heads, and they were busy with their own go.
Many people in it have sharp eyes and angry faces, and they don't look good.
Without waiting for the two to speak, a junior usher ushered in and led the two to a table by the window to sit down, without pouring tea and water, and without asking about eating and drinking, he asked, "What do you two need to come here?" "It's so straightforward.
Yushengyan thought for a while, and asked instead of answering: "Is today the eighth day of the first month?" "The eighth day of the first month!" The little second obviously knew this very well, "If you want to enter, it will start tomorrow, it seems that you have to stay for a night," the little second thought for a while, and said: "You can live in the bunk at will, but there is only one upper room here, and there are two beds... If you want to live, give money first, two oceans. ”
"Well, then I'll stay overnight!" Yusheng Yan understood what he meant, so he nodded: "We want to go to the room." Also, the carriage outside gave us a month to take care of, how much? ”
The little second seemed to be very familiar with this kind of storage, so he just glanced at it and said: "The two horses you pull the cart are very good, it seems that the general forage is not good, and you have to add beans every day to avoid losing fat... In a month, two horses are ten oceans, and you have twelve oceans in which you have lived tonight. ”
There is no need to say more, the Supreme Treasure immediately took out twelve oceans from his arms and lined them up on the table, Xiao Er carefully picked up the blow, put it in his ear and listened, and then dragged it in his hand, "Twelve oceans are there." What more do you want, some food? ”
The two of them were already hungry when they were in a hurry, so they naturally would not refuse, nodded and ordered: "Make noodles, cut beef, quickly, quickly!" ”
"Okay, beef noodles!" Xiao Er responded, and then stretched out his hand again: "Benefit an ocean, Xie Luxie!" ”
It seems that everything here is much more expensive than outside, and the Supreme Treasure didn't say much, so he casually took out an ocean and handed it to him, and then Xiao Er took off the rag on his shoulder and wiped it on the table a few times, and then turned around and went back to bring a pot of hot tea, and poured a cup for each of them, "Wait a minute, I'll come right away." ”
At this point, the Supreme Treasure also took the time to ask about everything about this Styx ghost...
Legend has it that a long time ago, during the Yin Shang period, there was a prince named Misu Kingdom, which was the most loyal prince of the Yin Shang. When the king of Zhou invaded, the country of Misu sent troops and grain for the Yin Shang, insisted on resisting the Zhou, which caused the king of Wen of Zhou to be extremely resentful, and later after the destruction of the Shang, he raised troops to crusade, and the country of Misu was completely wiped out, and the city was also burned into ruins.
Later, when King Wen of Zhou divided the princes, he re-established this secret beard country, re-established a new secret beard country on the old site, and sealed the princes here - I don't know why, I didn't expect the new feudal princes to change their minds not long after, and they actually tried to rebel again, and were destroyed by the king of Zhou Gong again.
Twice violated the will of the king of Zhou, which can be regarded as a great rebellion, so the Yin and Yang mages of the Zhou Dynasty at that time carried out the ritual of memorial, divination and Fuluan, and believed that there were ghosts here, and always refused to obey the rule of the king of Zhou. So that week, the king asked the mage to ask the heavens and the earth to cause an extremely major earthquake in this place, burying the entire old site into the ground and completely destroying it.
After the Spell Town was here for eight hundred years, and even the Zhou Dynasty had fallen, the land of the ancient kingdom had undergone earth-shaking changes - first, a great earthquake broke out again, and countless cracks were opened in the place where the old site was located, so that people could be embarrassed to leave; Later, an underground river invaded and washed, leading to a road.
First, the hunter did not fall into it, and found the jewels of the ancient city, and then he flocked to countless treasure hunters, hoping to make a fortune - but when the treasure hunters entered in a big way, the evil spirits also appeared, guarding the place... In this way, only those treasure hunters who know how to spell will dare to enter, and only they will be able to obtain some treasure.
Years later, the second time the new Mishu Kingdom was cleared, and some treasure hunters or fugitives lived in it, continuing to search for treasures in the old Missu Kingdom one level below.
Snakes, insects, rats and ants have their own doorways, since some people enter the old site to explore, there are also people who use other methods to make a fortune in it - for example, some people set up a ghost market like the trick of the ghost market in the city god temple, and directly trade with the ghosts below, and exchange for property by buying and selling, and then it becomes an underground ghost market.
Hundreds of years later, the underground became a unique city of its own, known as the Styx Ghost Snake by the people of the Dharma, where people continued to get rich and people died. There are constantly people who avoid disasters and hide in trouble, and there are also people who continue to reappear... For a hundred years, it is called a unique place, a place between yin and yang.
This is the Styx Ghost! (To be continued......)
PS: Thanks to 183, the rampant red lotus, the instant style, the monthly pass of the DEAD few!
At this point, this book can be regarded as entering the second half, and the next one I am starting to plan... Is it to continue the supernatural spirits of gods and ghosts, write a supernatural article about eternal life, or write an article about apocalyptic zombies?
Tangled!
