Chapter 356: Node Change
After walking for about half an hour, a bright light finally appeared in front of me, and when I turned the passage, I saw that it was Aunt Hong and the bearded fat man.
As soon as the fat man saw me, he greeted me and said hurriedly: "Damn, what did you run just now?" In the blink of an eye, the person disappeared, and he was scared to death! ”
I looked helpless, glanced at Aunt Hong, and said innocently: "I was tricked, I was confused by the illusion, and I couldn't see you when I turned around." ”
"And where have you been?" The fat man asked.
I groaned for a moment, and then briefly recounted what had happened, but did not mention the presence of the speaker.
My intuition tells me that it's better not to say that it exists.
Aunt Hong listened thoughtfully, but she didn't ask anything.
The fat man said that I had a big life, so I didn't die.
After that, I told the matter of the Niu Commander and the Ma Commander again, Aunt Hong was moved, and asked carefully about the experience, I did everything in detail, and Brother Gua also echoed a few words next to me.
"They're definitely coming for our goal, and they have to get ahead of them, or they'll be wasted." Aunt Hong frowned.
I nodded, and at the same time felt a little strange in my heart, so I asked: "Since the Yin Order was issued by the underworld, why did the Ox and Horse Commanders appear here, and could they still receive the Yin Order issued by themselves?" ”
"Of course not."
Gua Ge shook his head and said, "Commander Niu and Commander Ma must have come here privately, and they definitely didn't come here to carry out the Yin Order. Because the Yin Order is only effective for the Yang people, the completion of the ghost mission can only be regarded as a duty. ”
The bearded man also said, "We just came with our front feet and they arrived with our back feet, and it seems that they already knew that we were coming here." ”
Brother Gua and the fat man nodded when they heard this, and I also thought it was true, Niu Tou didn't conflict with Aunt Hong before, I'm afraid that what I hit was the attention of tailgating.
At this time, I looked around and didn't find the leather, so I asked, "Where did the leatherman go?" ”
"He's gone looking for you just like me, and he should be back soon." Guagodao. As soon as he finished speaking, a person came in at the end of the passage, and it was the leather coater.
His face was obviously a little anxious, but as soon as he saw me, he was relieved, and trotted over to look at me with concern: "Koharu is okay, right?" ”
I shook my head, a little moved in my heart, and said it was okay.
After that, I briefly recounted what had just happened, and the leather-clothed guest frowned deeply, and said the same judgment as Aunt Hong: "Niu Ma Ercha must be coming to our target, but it is really treacherous, let us open the way for them." ”
I was speechless for a while, and then I thought of the torture ghost, and asked what the result was.
"Erased." Leather-clad polite.
I nodded, discussed it for a while, and continued inside. Aunt Hong led the team, holding the black jade map in her hand, constantly looking for a way forward.
After more than two hours, we successfully passed through the labyrinth and entered the deepest part of the cave.
Along the way, there were no less than dozens of attacks, there were fierce spirits, evil spirits, evil spirits and some poisons that like to be shady, but they were all resolved one by one, and there was no danger.
And compared to the things that attacked, there were more feminine objects that stared at us but did not dare to move, and they could often be seen at a glance as they walked around us.
After getting out of the labyrinth, we were surprised to find a huge abyss in front of us, and many stone pinnacles under the abyss rose from the bottomless valley floor, and the fog was heavy.
At first glance, I thought we were standing on the top of the mountain!
The stone pinnacle is white all over, and it looks like the color of some kind of bone.
And the top of the abyss is even more shocking, the same stone peak, but it is upside down, and there are many drops of water falling down, like rain; At first glance, you can't see the edge at all.
What's even more weird is that there is no light source here, but there is a hazy light, and you can see.
"This pillar of stone milk is really thick enough." Brother Gua looked at the sword-like stone peak and was shocked.
"Stone milk?" I was stunned for a moment, and then I realized that those were not stone peaks at all, but thick and mountain-like stone milk pillars, but it was too tall and too big to associate it with stone milk pillars at all.
"It would take at least tens of thousands of years to form this appearance." The leather-clad man also said.
"Let's go down, be careful, the color of the stone milk is not right." Aunt Hong said, after speaking, she identified the direction, and took us to search around the edge of the abyss, and found a sheep intestine path that winds down.
We carefully moved down a little bit against the wall, saying that it was a path, but in fact it was a flange that was chiseled out less than the width of a palm. Man must walk sideways, and the toes are suspended in the air, and if you slip slightly, you will surely fall under the bottomless abyss.
"Isn't this too small? Who would have carved such a small road here? "The fat man has a relatively round body, and it is not very good when it fits, and it is the hardest to walk.
"It's certainly not for people to walk away." Gua Ge turned around and said.
My heart is in a pang, it's not for people, it's naturally for ghosts and evil and other yin things.
In other words, beneath the abyss is the core of the ghost cave.
The trail winds its way down like a winding road, and we walked for a long time before we slowly approached the bottom. The air was very humid and cold, and every puff you took seemed to be able to wring out two coins of water.
After going down to the bottom, we walked to the nearest stone milk pillar, Gua Ge dipped a little yellow water droplets on it with his hand, rubbed it between his fingers a few times, his face changed greatly, and said, "This is Huangquan ground milk." ”
"What's that?" I asked curiously.
Gua Ge shook off the water droplets and said to me, "The Yellow Spring Earth Milk is formed by the corpse water of the deceased slowly seeping into the ground, and like the underworld, it only appears in the Netherworld, but it is even rarer. ”
"Corpse water?" I muttered, feeling extremely disgusting, and couldn't help but move away from the stone milk pillar a little.
The fat man looked puzzled and said, "This is not the underworld, how can such a thing appear?" ”
Not only him, but the others were also a little strange, Aunt Hong saw this, and said: "This should be a place of yin, there must have been a underworld path passing through here, but I don't know why it was abandoned." ”
Everyone nodded slowly, and this was the only explanation.
Liuhe Town is a Underworld node, maybe a long, long time ago, the Underworld node was not in Liuhe Town, but here, but later I don't know why I changed it there.
I had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly remembered one thing, the fat man said that someone in the history of Qimen once broke the underworld, so could it be that the underworld here was broken, so it was abandoned?
With this thought, I remembered the blood-red coffin I saw in the secret room just now, could the existence in the coffin be related to the changes in the underworld?
So I told Aunt Hong about my guess.
Brother Gua and the leather coat raised their eyebrows when they heard this, and Brother Gua nodded: "It's possible." ”
"It's just that there are not many people who can do it in the past and now." The leather-clad man hesitated.
"Compared with Liuhe Town, this place is indeed more suitable for opening up the underworld, although the willow forest in Liuhe Town is desolate, but there are still people often passing by, and accidents often occur, which is really reluctant." The bearded man interjected.
"If the underworld path here is really broken, then who will it be, except for the pre-Qin saints, there are only a few who have the ability." The fat man touched his chin and pondered, and then read out the names of those people: "Zhuge Kongming, Peng Zu, Li Bai, Zhang Xianzhong, Li Qingyun, and ......"
"There is also the Heavenly Master Dao Zhang family." Brother Gua took over the conversation and said: "However, the Zhang family and the Peng family have always been friendly with the underworld, there is no reason to do this, Zhuge Kongsheng, as the ancestor of Qimen, naturally will not do this act of destroying order, Li Qingyun is indifferent by nature, he has never been in contention, and his strength cannot be on par with the previous ones." ”
"Then only the Qinglian Sword Immortal and the Demon King are left." The leather-clothed guest added: "The demon king has set up another Yin Division, and the underworld is in flames, most likely." Qinglian Sword Immortal is jealous and hateful, if he sees that the underworld is doing injustice, he may also slash the underworld in anger; Both are suspicious. ”
"Then it should be Li Bai!" The bearded man spoke again, and his tone was quite determined.
We listened and all looked at him, waiting for his reason.
He continued: "Because the time when Liuhe Town became the node of the underworld is not the end of the Ming Dynasty, but much earlier, although I don't know the exact age, but the time can exclude the Demon King. ”
"Li Bai."
I muttered, a little unbelievable.
This has just come into contact with the identity of the Qinglian Sword Immortal Qimen's power, but he didn't expect to see what is suspected of his handwriting the next day.
"It's all just speculation." At this time, Aunt Hong spoke, she shook her head slowly, and said: "The underworld is becoming more and more turbulent in this dynasty, you don't forget the ghost king hall that was born again, the tip of the iceberg they revealed has made the entire Dongtu Qimen realm rumor, and even the Nanyang side is quite concerned." ”
As soon as these words came out, Gua Ge and the leather coat man both groaned, and the bearded man and the fat man were also silent, and they were speechless for a while.
I looked at them and asked, "What do you mean by unrest in the underworld?" ”
This is a brand new news for me, the underworld has the Emperor Xudu as the supreme master, and the ten Hades are in charge of the ten halls, each performing its own duties, and it should be orderly and hierarchical in imagination, so how can it be turbulent?
After listening to me, the leather-clothed man and the melon brother looked at each other, opened their mouths to speak, and even the fat man had a different color on his face, and they all looked at me.
"What's the situation?" I was shocked by this, and my intuition told me that this matter had nothing to do with me.
Aunt Hong pondered for a moment, and said: "A year ago, there was a rebellion in the underworld, and the Yin people suffered heavy casualties, and the spread was very wide, although it was finally suppressed, but the sparks of the rebellion were everywhere, and now the underworld is like a powder keg, and no one knows when it will explode next." ”
"What?!"
I was shocked for a long time that there was a rebellion in the underworld!
The most critical point is the point in time, a year ago.
It's when the Hongcun Affair begins!
