Chapter 209: Yellow Springs
I looked at this yellow undercurrent. I couldn't help but wonder: "Is this water?" Why can it float in the river without falling away? "
The mule said: "On the 14th of July, the ghost gate is opened, and the yellow spring is springing. This water is an underground yellow spring. In the past, when the old city was still alive, there would be yellow water coming out of a certain well on this day, and if someone drank it by mistake, they would get a pair of yin and yang eyes. You can see ghosts. However, after three days, it was back to normal. It is said that this is to alert the world to the existence of the underworld in the world. Do not do evil while you are alive, lest you suffer a lot of torture when you die.
"Later, the ancient city was flooded, and after the yellow water came out of the well, it mixed with the river water. The river is so strong that it will wash away the water of the Yellow Spring, but the water gushing out of the Yellow Spring is endless. So it looks like it's floating in the water all the time and won't dissipate.
I nodded and asked the mule, "You mean that." At the end of the Yellow Spring, there is the underworld. "
The mule nodded: "Exactly. Then he looked at Mrs. Zhang and said respectfully, "Please let the other two Yin Errands out, and the three of us will take the lead." "
Madame Zhang nodded, and with a flick of her wrist, the soul lock ring in her hand emitted a ball of light. Two yin chagrins immediately appeared on the mountain.
I looked at the soul lock ring on Mrs. Zhang's wrist and couldn't help but think, "Could it be that her soul lock ring is the same as my peach wood sword, and it was also raised?" Even if we turn into spirits, can we carry them with us? "
Before I could think clearly, Mrs. Zhang gently nudged me: "What are you thinking?" Hurry up and keep up. "
I nodded, and saw that the rest of the group had already plopped into the water. Swam towards the entrance of the Yellow Spring.
Along the way, as we slowly approached the yellow undercurrent. I felt like my body was getting colder and colder. It's really sinister here.
Luckily, I was in a state of soul at this time. The heavier the Yin Qi, the more powerful my soul will be.
Finally, we arrived at the location of the spring. The three puppets said to us, "Don't worry, everyone is a soul now. You can breathe freely and talk freely in this water. Now, we're going to enter the spring. "
After saying this, the three of them slammed into the water and swam to the bottom of the water.
As Yin Cha said, even if we can't swim, our souls can swim, dive, and talk freely in the water. It doesn't feel like you're frolicking in the water, it's even a bit like you're flying in the air.
As we slowly descended in height, I saw the desolate ruins. The houses here are very old, and most of them have collapsed. Some strange fish were shuttling back and forth in the middle of the house.
The thin man said: "This is probably the old city of Fengdu. Unexpectedly, the whole was flooded by the river. "
The mule pointed to a dark yellow column of water not far away and said, "There is the entrance to the Yellow Spring, so come quickly." "
We followed and found out that it was a well. Yellow water gushed out of the well. These waters unrelentingly broke through the obstruction of the river, like a steel city, and formed a yellow column of water in the turbulent river.
The mule said to us, "The exit of the Yellow Spring is the entrance to the underworld. But this entrance changes every day, and it doesn't spew out yellow springs. Today is our only chance, we must go down to the bottom of Huangquan before the rooster crows. "
We nodded. Then he jumped into the well with the shadow.
This ancient well is not large, the mouth of the well is round, and it is thicker than the human body. My body was slowly falling. The moment the wellhead blocked my view, the scenery in front of me instantly went black. I silently muttered in my heart: "See you again, the world." I'm coming, Underworld. Hope all the best and come back safely. "
When my eyes adjusted to the darkness in the well, I looked at the rest of the people. They were also nervous, and they all had words in their mouths.
There was a yellow stream of water flowing under my feet, and the current even washed my clothes flying.
I clutched the filial piety clothes on my body and slowly fell towards the body. This dress can't be washed away, otherwise, I'll be stuck between the people and the underworld, and God knows what will happen to the Dao.
I'm descending to the ground. Suddenly, there was a pain in his right hand. I saw a yellow fish swimming into the yellow spring with its head and tail wagging. Both are yellow and difficult to distinguish.
The mule said to me, "These yellow fish grow in the yellow springs and live by devouring people's souls." When the past Yin Cha returned to the underworld, he often had to feed these yellow spring fish with the soul he had just caught. Over time, when they see the shadows, they will come out. Just now, I guess I was regarded as a soul entering the underworld. "
Mrs. Zhang smiled: "Do you want to bribe these fish before entering the underworld?" Then she took out a random soul from the soul ring. Naturally, it was a puppet made in the early years. These puppets were just ordinary evil ghosts, and they were not enough to see in the underworld, so Mrs. Zhang threw him out very happily.
A few seconds later, I saw a dozen yellow fish rush out and bite at the spirit.
This soul is Mrs. Zhang's puppet, but he was bitten by the yellow fish, and he still screamed involuntarily.
After a few seconds, the screams grew weaker and weaker, and finally became inaudible.
The yellow croaker was finally full, and he hid in the yellow spring from the new. And a few of us also came to the bottom of the well.
We saw a castle. It's a lot like the rest of the world, but it's more ancient than the world.
I watched the pedestrians coming and going in the city. The clothes they wore were found in all dynasties. It is limited to hundreds or even thousands of years.
I asked the mule, "Don't these souls need to be reincarnated?" I saw some very old spirits. "
The mule said, "These spirits have done something before they died. If the underworld can't find out in one day, it won't be able to convict them for a day, and it can't decide whether to send them to be six animals or become human again. "
My eyes were cold, and I couldn't help but think, "Who did these people offend when they were alive?" If you die, you will only have to suffer such pain. "
We walked past these people. I saw that their faces were all extremely hideous, not much different from the yellow croaker just now.
We didn't want to drink these ghosts to make a feud, so we avoided them and ran away.
A few minutes later, we left the demons behind. This is the end of the matter.
The mule led us on, explaining as he went: "What happened just now happened on the Huangquan Road, those ghosts have eyes and don't know Mount Tai, and it is possible that they collided with us. But then, we're really going to the underworld. "
I asked the mule, "What, those yellow croakers we just experienced, terrible ghosts." Isn't it considered the underworld? "
The ghost cha nodded: "Huangquan Road, it's just a place to live in the underworld that can't be entered, and seriously speaking, it's not the underworld." "
A few of us followed the mule and slowly, into the underworld.
It's dark here, but it's not black. It's cold here, but it's not so cold that your hands and feet are numb. From time to time, a flash of lightning flashed here, but not so that it frightened people.
Suddenly, there was a sound of gongs and drums in the distance. The mule's face changed dramatically, and he said to us, "No, as soon as we came in, we were just in time for the judge to go out on patrol." You're wearing the garb of a judge's guard, and if he finds out, he'll definitely track him down. It's better to hide it right away. "
A few of us immediately changed our faces and hid in the underworld in obedience. A group of us hid behind a huge rock, hoping that this would do something to the judges.
The guards of the coil carried a large coffin, as we had seen it before, playing mournful music, and were walking proudly in the underworld. Everywhere they went, all the ghosts bowed down and worshipped.
When the group came near us, they suddenly stopped and stopped walking.
We were all nervous, thinking: Did the judge find us?
My hand involuntarily grasped the peachwood sword in my arms. But I know in my heart that in this kind of place, fighting hard with the judge is simply looking for death.
We can't use the Dao arts, so we can only hold the peachwood sword and use ordinary sword moves to fight the enemy. And the judge's kung fu is unfathomable, and no one has ever seen his true strength.
