Chapter Twenty-Three: Seemingly an Old Man

The lips of the two touched and separated, and Mo Jian looked at Meng Po who was stunned, and suddenly realized that he had done something, and he blushed from the root of his face to the root of his neck. He stood there helplessly, his eyes flashing with remorse: he blamed himself for being too impulsive...... It's going to be hated now.

"Little doll, do you know who I am?" There was a hint of unfathomable vicissitudes in her voice, and Mo Jian blinked and looked at her blankly. Meng Po suddenly felt a big stone pressing on her heart, making her breathless. She took a deep breath and said lightly:

"I'm Meng Po."

Meng ...... Old woman? Mo Jian muttered, a flash of surprise flashed in his transparent eyes, and blurted out:

"You're so good-looking." Meng Po's fists under her sleeve robe were clenched tightly, she lowered her eyelashes, and said slowly:

"It is impossible for Meng Po to stay with the dead soul. I know that children of your age will inevitably have this kind of thought, but why waste time dealing with me, an old woman who has lived for thousands of years? Hurry up and drink the soup, enter the reincarnation early, and go to find the girl you love. As soon as the words fell, she hurried forward, but she felt that the hem of her clothes was tightly grasped by a hand, and the voice of Mo Jian came from behind her:

"Where are you going?" Mu Ningjiu glanced at the two Hetian jades lit up on her wrists, looked at Shang Jin, and then whispered to Meng Po:

"My lord, we don't have much time left here......" Meng Po gestured with her eyes to black and white impermanence, Fan Wuyu immediately rushed up, grabbed Mo Yi's collar, and lifted him up like a chicken, Xie Bi'an coughed, waved his hand, and shouted:

"Let's go!"

As soon as he entered the Hades Palace, a cold and loud voice came from the black and cyan throne high above:

"The lone king is here, waiting for the two of you for a long time."

Mu Ningjiu and Shang Jin glanced at each other, and they were both shocked, so they heard Meng Po hook her lips and say:

"You don't have to worry, just tell us what you mean, and the king will make a decision."

Shang Jin took a step forward, glanced at the seat facing away from them, bowed and said:

"There are now many gangsters in the world who break the vows and practice black magic, and they collect the souls of innocent people and sacrifice demons in exchange for the qualification to talk to them and obtain infinite spiritual power, which is bound to cause chaos in the five countries and four tribes. The grass people want to use the energy of this soul fire to open the ancient magic circle and reseal the black spell. ”

Hades frowned and said coldly:

"Even so, will you be able to wantonly steal the soul fire and break the rules and regulations of my underworld?"

Mu Ningjiu saw that the atmosphere was not right, and hurriedly said:

"It's really our fault. Hades wants to be punished, and we have no complaints. But now the situation in the world is critical, and countless innocent people who died unnaturally not only did not enter the yin and yang book, but even their souls were collected in the soul bottle. Ask Hades to give us a chance to seal the demon away, and then come to you to ask for sin! ”

The wide palm on the black and cyan chair handle tightened sharply after hearing the word "squeak", and the sound of the "squeak" chair cracking could be faintly heard. After a while, he sneered, turned around slowly, and the pair of cold eyes revealed behind the pure black mask opened slightly the moment he saw Mu Ningjiu and Shang Jin, but quickly returned to normal. He muttered:

"I said, how did Ah Yan let the two living souls take the listing...... It turned out ......," he paused and said:

"What a sharp-toothed girl! Lone is by no means an unreasonable person, and I won't tell you the truth, the yin and yang book here has often undergone strange changes in recent days. People of great merit who should not have died at this moment are inexplicably marked as dead. Lone told Yin to go to the world to find them, wanting to bring them back to find out, but he couldn't find their souls. When you say this, you solve the mystery. In that case, Lone is allowed! ”

The two looked at each other in surprise, and then heard Hades say:

"When the time comes, when you run out of soul fire, its spiritual power will automatically return to the Nai He Bridge in the Lechuan River. Oh yes, how did you guys get here? ”

Mu Ning Jiu replied:

"We came in through the dreams of a dying man, and now ......," she said, glancing at the dream spirit in her hand, and looking up.

"There's an hour left."

When Hades heard this, he sighed:

"In that case, I won't leave you alone, so let's go back to the world quickly!" Shang Jin and Mu Ning bowed down to thank him, and the latter immediately stroked the dream soul with one hand, closed his eyes and silently recited something, and after a while, there was still no movement around.

"What's wrong?" Meng Po frowned and asked.

"I ...... Couldn't sense his soul. ”

"What's his name?" Hades paused:

"I'll look through the yin-yang book."

"Qu Feng." Mu Ning replied.

"Didn't they take the soul away?" Shang Jin groaned.

"Indeed......" Hades frowned and pointed to a certain line in the book of yin and yang:

"The date of his death has changed, but just now the ghost has sent a report that his soul has not been found in the world. Xu is ......"

"What can I do?" Mu Ningjiu's fists on both sides clenched, gritted his teeth and said fiercely:

"They're really good enough to get us hooked up one after the other."

"Otherwise, there is a road in the underworld that is dedicated to sending those souls who should not be killed back to the world, at this moment...... The time is just right, and Lone immediately asked Niu Tou Ma Mian to send you out from there. ”

Shang Jin raised his eyebrows, bowed happily and said:

"Thank you so much, the king!" Mu Ningjiu handed the two tags in his hand to Meng Po and said:

"I also asked the adults to help hand over these two pieces of the tag to the proprietress of the omniscient shop in the ghost town of Fengdu, and said, 'Time is pressing, I can't say goodbye to her, I'm really sorry'."

"It's too late!" Everyone turned their heads in unison when they heard the sound, and saw a woman in a pink robe, wearing a mask, and a graceful posture walking in from outside the hall, she stood beside Shang Jin and Mu Ningjiu, stared at them tightly for a long time, sighed, and asked softly:

"Leaving?"

"Hmm," Mu Ningjiu hooked his lips:

"Thank you. Next time, I'll come to you and I'll have a good chat with you. ”

Luo Yan covered her mouth and frowned:

"Well, don't. I'd rather never have to see you here. Mu Ningjiu attached her hand to hers and patted it gently, her starry eyes were filled with brilliant light. Soon, she hooked her lips and chuckled:

"Well, then, my lords, don't leave it at that."

Shang Jin glanced at the bull-headed horse face waiting at the intersection of a dark path, pinched the soft palm of Mu Ningjiu, and made a deep gesture towards the king of Hades, and then said:

"Let's go." Mu Ningjiu walked a few steps, as if thinking of something, and suddenly turned around, a pair of eyes flashed with a familiar light that seemed to be reminiscing:

"By the way, Manzhu Sawa on Huangquan Road is very beautiful."

The hearts of the three people present were all painful, but they just stood in place like a sculpture, watching the two disappear at the intersection.

Luo Yan's eyes were slightly red, she let out a long sigh of relief, and shook the hand of the king of Hades:

"Xiao Yan, what is she...... What is the first life? Hades glanced at Meng Po, who was looking at him as eagerly as Luo Yan, and said lightly:

"She's already a mortal, you should put it down, just let it go. No matter how much you worry, it won't do anyone any good. ”

When Meng Po heard this, she sighed inaudibly and bowed away.

Next to the Sansheng Stone, Mo Jian was holding Meng Po's table, and his obsidian-like eyes flashed with a determined light:

"I won't drink it!"

Xie Bi soothed his forehead, looked at this stubborn little ghost, and said with a headache:

"Little Ancestor, you can do it, drink the soup! We're still in a hurry to go to the world, and we don't have time to spend it here with you! ”

Mo Jian shrank his neck in fright, and his big eyes flickered:

"Then you let her out, I have something to say to her."

Xie Bi'an glanced at Fan Wuyu beside him, and saw that the latter was looking straight ahead motionlessly, without the slightest intention of helping, gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and when he looked up, he saw Meng Po behind Mo Conversion, and just wanted to speak, he saw her put her index finger to her lips and "shhhhhhhhhhhhhh

At this end, Mo Jian was still thinking in pieces:

"Even if it's a ghost, you can't force me to be reincarnated, can you? As long as I don't drink that soup, I won't forget everything I see in the world, and I can ......"

Seeing that he was no longer talking, Xie Bi'an asked idly:

"What's that?"

A glimmer of light suddenly flashed in Mo Yi's clear eyes, and he said in a daze:

"You can stay in the underworld forever and watch her." As soon as the words fell, he suddenly felt a strong force on his shoulder, and a cool voice came from his ears:

"You little ghost, why don't you listen?"

He turned his head happily, and the moment he saw Meng Po, his face suddenly turned red.

"Aren't you a little monk? The monks are tempted by others, but it is a big taboo. She said lightly.

"I ......" He wanted to fight back against Shang Jin and argue a few words, but found that what the person in front of him said seemed to be right, and his feelings for her seemed to be more than admiration and fear......

But if that's the case, he's going to be sorry for the Master and the Buddha. Although he was stupid, he never dared to do anything that disobeyed the Buddha's rules and regulations.

For a moment, he hesitated.

Fan Wuyu saw that Meng Po's words weakened this little ghost's determination to stay in the underworld, and he couldn't help but admire it in his heart, he handed the bowl to Mo Confucius, who took it unconsciously, with a lingering sadness and struggle in his eyes.

In a trance, he remembered the conversation with Xie Bi'an:

"Why is the water here blood-yellow?"

"Lethe, there are lonely ghosts and ghosts that cannot be reincarnated, and insects and snakes are everywhere. Although it is extremely turbid, but the deepest place is the purest, if someone dares to jump into this Lethe River to wait for their beloved, thousands of years later, no matter what sins on the body, will be washed away, reborn. In return for enduring the pain of insects and snakes biting his soul, he was able to reunite with his loved ones. ”

His heart moved, he looked up, and saw Meng Po's eyes flashing with sudden brilliance, and the latter had a sense of foreboding in his heart, so he heard him say softly:

"On that day, Master asked me to copy and recite the scriptures in the book room, and when I was sleepy, I opened a yellow booklet on the table and saw your portrait."

Meng Po's eyebrows tightened, and she listened to him continue, and her crisp and pleasant voice was like a bell slowly striking on the top of the mountain in the morning
