Chapter 31: The Paradise of the Dead (2)
Yuan Yong stared at the flames in a daze, and finally his mood gradually stabilized, he threw the burden with darts on his shoulders on the ground and sat down cross-legged.
Tossed for a whole day, ate poisonous mushrooms and vomited so much that his heart felt uncomfortable, he didn't care about demons and monsters, cows, ghosts, snakes and gods, he just wanted to have a good rest.
The old woman also sat down with him around the fire. One person and one demon, the distance was just not close, Yuan Yong could smell the smell of blood coming from her, and couldn't help frowning.
"Little Housheng, what is the strength that sustains you not to be attracted by darkness, fear, and sadness, and to be able to persist in walking back here?" asked the old woman.
Yuan Yong thought for a while and said: "Maybe the junior wants to complete the dart task handed over by Master Yuan, maybe the junior promised Mrs. Yuan to get the young master back, maybe it's the ......" His life was given by the Yuan family, so the Yuan family is the only spiritual support for him.
"Well, it's rare to have a good kid like you who always thinks about others. Do you know that the self-terminated human race here is selfish and reckless, they only think about whether they live a satisfactory life, never think about the parents, children, brothers, sisters and friends around them, and do not think about how much harm they will bring to the people around them if they leave the world. Every year, people die here, and every year after the cold food, the relatives of the deceased burn incense outside the woods. So...... The old body will let them die without a whole body, and they can't cross the bridge" The old woman looked at the dancing flames, thinking about something in her heart.
"Why didn't those people come in and bring the body back for burial?"
"No one dared to come in. It's called the Elysium, but the irony is that those who take their own lives will never be able to go to Elysium. Can only wander around here."
"In this way, we are afraid that we are surrounded by wandering spirits, why haven't the younger generations seen it yet?"
"Because you are hard-spoken! The soul is afraid of you. "The old woman is not a messenger of the underworld, and she will give people their lives.
"Since the younger generation's life is hard, it must not be cut off, can the old woman help the younger generation leave the woods?"
"No, an adult is going to change your life tonight and use your eight characters and skin to go to the human world."
"Ahh
"Just now the dark messenger was going to design to devour your divine consciousness with darkness, and then sacrifice the body of the walking dead to the lord for credit, the old body saved you, and that's all the more that the lord has known about your existence since you stepped into the woods, but he is resting. I heard from the dark messenger that the adults will be coming soon."
Yuan Yong didn't want to die, so he pounced on his wife and knelt down, "knock, knock, knock" were three big bangs.
The old woman was about to open her mouth, when a young man estimated to be about seventeen or eighteen years old suddenly appeared, wearing a dark robe, with a maroon sash around his waist, and standing in front of them with his hands behind his back. The appearance and clothing do not match the young face at all.
The old woman bowed respectfully to the young man and silently stepped aside.
The young man glanced at the man who was kneeling on the ground trembling from the corner of his eye, and said disdainfully: "Life is hard, knees are soft, this king will actually take a fancy to this skin, shame."
"Qiyu Little Yama King, since this person is unsightly, how about the slave go to the human world to help the king find a good one?" The old woman has the heart to save Yuan Yong, she has seen too many half-dead Terrans in the Elysium Forest, and it is a pity that such a strong-willed young man who knows how to repay his kindness has died.
"This king wants to go to the world to do something urgent, and he can't delay, he just happens to have a pair of skins to use, and his life is hard enough, and he should not become a sick seedling for ten days and half a month, so make do with it, it's better than being discovered by Heaven that this king ran to the world. ”
It turned out that the young man was the little king of the underworld, and Yuan Yong opened his eyes now.
Yuan Yong has been kneeling and did not get up, he raised the dart above his head and said: "Your Excellency Lord Hades, the villain is a famous dart master, this time he was ambushed by mistake for the sake of the dart, and fled into the Bliss Forest to disturb the king's dream, but the villain's task has not been completed and he gave his life here, I am really unwilling, I hope the king can open the net and leave the villain's life to send the dart safely to the next fate."
"It's ridiculous, you actually negotiated terms with this king, this king ruined your things, look at what excuse you find" The little king of Yama has a noble status, but he is still young, and it is inevitable that he will be a little childish in doing things, he raised his hand and waved lightly, and Yuan Yong, which he regarded as a dart for his life, fell out of the burden and fluttered on the ground.
Yuan Yong stretched out his hand to pick it up and take a closer look, the dart was actually just a piece of paper, with some buildings and incomprehensible marks drawn on it, and in the center of the building was written the three big characters "Xiangshanzhai".
Little Hades had sharp eyes and snatched the drawings away. He looked closely at the drawings, and a sly smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.
"Who is this dart for?" asked Hades, pretending to be nonchalant.
"Back to the king, the villain is about to go to the Xiangshan cottage to find their leader Yanba"
"Okay, this trip King Benben will help you deliver it" Xiao Yama stretched out his right index finger in front of Yuan Yong's forehead, and his soul detached from his body.
Xiao Yan* walked into Yuan Yong's body, and "Yuan Yong", who had lost his breath, got up from the ground with a face full of anger.
He turned his head and glanced at the soul of Yuan Yong himself, who was looking at his body with sad eyes, and suddenly felt a little weak, and the life of the human race was generally followed by rules, that was called "the number of qi has been exhausted", this time he forcibly stripped the soul, there were violations, and the name of the little king of Yama was not right, so he waved his hand and left by himself without staying long.
The old woman looked at the back of the little king of Yama in the distance, and then looked at Yuan Yong's soul, and shook her head. She was originally a member of the demon race, and the demon race has always eaten people's souls and flesh. It's just that 10,000 years ago, the demons were driven to the edge of the South China Sea and were not allowed to set foot in the Central Plains. I don't know how long time has passed, the old woman has been influenced by the fairy family, and she is no longer as ruthless as other demons, and her mind is full of cannibalism. So seeing that Yuan Yong was robbed of his body, he was very unfair, and even a little disgusted with the little king of Hades, who thought he was superior.
The Dark Messenger appeared beside the old woman, he had no form, like a shadow in the darkness.
"Darkness, isn't it too much for the little Hades to do this?" the old woman was slightly dissatisfied.
"Old woman, you dare to question Little Yama!" The Dark Messenger is the dog leg of Little Yama, and he will only follow Little Yama on weekdays.
"Why don't you protect your master, dog-legged" The old woman didn't want to pay attention to him, turned around and left.
"Who are you scolding? You think I don't want to follow the little Yama to the human world to play, but he won't let me follow. Anyway, the little king of Yama went to the human world alone, I really don't feel at ease" The dark messenger cursed loudly when he saw the old woman disappear into the air.
The Dark Messenger glanced at Yuan Yong.
Yuan Yong stood aside and stared at him with angry eyes, this dark shadow that could talk just now wanted to harm him, and he wanted to take revenge. But he has no body, only a soul. However, the other party is just a shadow, could it be。。。。。。
Yuan Yong walked up to the black shadow and tried to punch him with all his strength. Phew, the Darkbringer was knocked to the ground. Yuan Yong was secretly overjoyed.
The dark messenger was also surprised when he was knocked over, he was surprised that Yuan Yong could not hit him, because the soul was an immortal or messenger who could contact the underworld, he didn't expect Yuan Yong to actually beat him, the soul of a human race, the cycle of life and death are controlled by the underworld, even if the underworld's approach is wrong, Yuan Yong and a mortal should not be qualified to be resentful.
"I really ate the bear's heart and leopard's gall, see that I don't scatter your soul and make you never be able to live again," the dark messenger got up from the ground and prepared to do it.
"Darkness, if you dare to do it, the old body will go and tell the king of Hades!" the old woman couldn't stand it anymore, and she slowly walked back from a distance.
"You have to go against me, dead old woman" After speaking, the dark messenger was furious, and he decided to teach this demon who didn't know what to do today.
The wind and clouds were surging, the wind was surging in the Elysian Forest, and the messenger of darkness seemed to be grasped by countless hands, unable to move. He struggled to his body, looking like a writhing loach, ridiculous. The old woman stepped forward and slapped him, and a black shadow was slapped and flew a few feet away, directly through several rows of tree trunks.
Not to be outdone, the darkness bounced up from a distance and slashed at the old woman like a dart. Before he could get closer, the old woman stretched out her hand and pointed at the black shadow, and he was ejected a few feet away.
"Darkness, you can't beat the old body. If you want to say that you usually rely on the power of the little Yama to show off your might, the old body gives you a few points, but today the little Yama is not here, the old body wants to teach you how to get along with others."
"Damn," the Darkbringer slumped on the ground, cursing viciously.
The old woman was afraid that the dark messenger would be unfavorable to Yuan Yong again, so she asked him to leave with her. Left alone, the Darkbringer crouched in place and sulked.
"Little offspring, you will follow the old body in the future, your life is not over, and you have no physical body, the judge's life and death book is not right, and you will not be reincarnated"
"Old woman, the younger generation is really unwilling, and I want to sue the king of Hades"
"Forget it, the little Yama is the son of the Yama King, even if he does something wrong, the Yama King will not correct him, at most he will just count a few words. Besides, your physical body has been separated from your soul for a long time, even if the little Yama comes back and returns your physical body, you can still return your soul, and you will become a 'living dead' without consciousness, so what is the point of that?
The old woman stretched out her hand and pointed not far away, where a dense number of souls lingered, knocking on a door, wanting to enter the underworld through this door and enter the path of reincarnation to be reborn.
"These souls are all human races who chose to die on their own in the Bliss Forest, so they can't be reincarnated again," the old woman said.
Yuan Yong followed the old woman slowly in the forest, chatting, as if he was taking an aimless walk.
Such days may take a long time, even decades.
Yuan Yong thought as he walked.
