Chapter 3 Granny Meng
"Ahh
"Who are you? Why are you arresting us here? You are breaking the law, we will let the police arrest you!" Li Xiaobao was not as timid as his father thought he was, and he said calmly to the black shadow.
"Who am I? haha... I don't remember, I've been here for so long, so long that I have forgotten who I am, they all call me Granny Meng, and you can call me that!" said the black shadow again with that high-pitched voice that pierced people's hearts.
The four children trembled with fright at her voice, and she couldn't speak, and after a long time, Xiao Bao mustered up the courage to ask, "Granny Meng, are you the Meng Po in that legendary hell?" He had read a lot of books and read these myths and legends.
"Hell?haha... That's what you humans say, this is the Soul Migration Continent, your world is just a ranch for us, we just need your skin to raise you!" Granny Meng said with a smile.
"What are you talking about? We are your captive animals?" Meng Liang was too frightened to speak, but when he heard this, he was angry and asked Granny Meng directly.
"Then what do you think you are? If it weren't for the great war that caused the people of our Soul Migration Continent to lose their skins, why would we spend so much time and energy to close your universe to captivate you? Isn't it just to cultivate a suitable skin for us? It's a pity that we haven't found many qualified ones for so long, it's really frustrating..."Granny Meng said.
Listening to Granny Meng say this, several people understood a little bit, it turned out that the Soul Migration Continent was a very large continent in the center of the universe, and the original civilization was the most powerful in the universe, but I don't know when it had a big war with other continents, and after the defeat, it became like this, all the people were suppressed by what energy, lost the ability to produce bodies, and all became ethereal souls, so the leaders of the continent thought of closing the distant galaxy, and chose the earth as a pasture, creating human beings and this world, and the people of the Soul Migration Continent lived on the earth through a special channel attached to these human shells, and those who meet the standards of the Soul Migration Continent will be like Xiaobao and they will be able to return to the Soul Migration Continent through the rainbow ring and become the real people of the Soul Migration Continent, so as to restore the superpowers of the original people of this continent, and those who do not meet the requirements will continue to fend for themselves on the continent, enter the reincarnation channel after death, and find a new body to continue to start over, but this plan is progressing slowly, and after millions of years, there are not many qualified people of the continent, but the human world is becoming more and more chaotic, more and more difficult to manage, and there are great signs of collapse.
"Then Granny Meng, since we belong to the qualified people of the mainland, you shouldn't lock us up here? You think that the Soul Migration Continent itself is sparsely populated, and a few of us are rarely qualified, shouldn't you treat us better? If you train us well, you can also contribute to the mainland in the future? Don't you say?" Xiaobao said carefully.
"Hehe... At a glance, I know that you are a little ghost, and my mother-in-law likes you very much, but it's a pity! There are too few qualified skins, and they can only be used by the dignitaries and nobles in our continent first, so you have to sacrifice, but seeing that you are so well-behaved, my mother-in-law guarantees that you will be reborn into a rich and noble family, and you will enjoy endless happiness in the next life!" said Granny Meng with a smile.
"You old witch, let's fight with you!" Meng Liang and Xiao Yilang couldn't hold their breath, and rushed up to catch Meng Po, but they didn't expect that the two of them ran into each other directly, and the black shadow dissipated in an instant and combined on the side, and it was impossible to catch it at all.
"Hehe! The old body is also a lonely soul, you don't have to work hard, you can't catch me, come with me!" After speaking, his eyes flashed green, and he saw four people stunned, as if they were unconscious, and followed Granny Meng in a daze, and the red ball drifted strangely on the side.
Xiao Bao has the most thoughts in this, he has been staring at Meng Po, seeing Meng Po's eyes with green light towards Meng Liang, Xiao Yilang and Sonny as soon as they looked, he knew that it was not good, he was busy learning from Sonny's appearance, pretending to be stunned and walking forward, Meng Po may be too confident, and he didn't take these children to heart, turned around and led the way away.
With the light of the red ball, Xiaobao knew that this was a tunnel in the mountains, but it was very finely repaired, the tunnel was full of glittering crystals up and down, and the ground was paved with flat giant black stones.
Several people passed through a long tunnel and came to a spacious hall, the hall was very empty, there were no superfluous objects to place, only a huge Dan furnace in the middle, the blue ghost fire burned under the Dan furnace, and a group of children with dull eyes were carrying all kinds of materials, some poured into the Dan furnace, and some added fire underneath.
"Well, you help with the work first, and then deal with your soul transfer when this pot of Meng Po soup is ready, several princes are waiting to ask for it! Hehe..." After Meng Po finished speaking, the green light flashed in her eyes, and Sunny went to move things obediently, Xiaobao could only pretend to move things, Meng Po disappeared with satisfaction, and several black shadows appeared in the hall, looking like overseers, watching them work.
"What are you doing? Who told you to move this?" A dark shadow came to Xiaobao's side, and it turned out that Xiaobao, in order not to find out for them, saw a package of green things on the side of the hall, so he went over to lift it and prepared to throw it into the Dan furnace.
"Bastard, this is a soul regeneration stone, it won't work if you add medicine, go move the red one!" said the shadow overseer.
Xiao Bao hurriedly pretended to be sluggish to move the red bag, while the overseer did not pay attention, grabbed a handful of green stuffed into his clothes, fortunately the green light did not see through the clothes to the overseer, and then he followed the example of others, pulled the red material over and poured it into the Dan furnace, when pouring it had to climb a wooden staircase, fell from the top, Xiao Bao saw the black water swirling in the furnace, not emitting a ghostly light, after pouring the red material in, while the overseer was not paying attention, all the green materials were thrown into the furnace.
I don't know how long I've been busy, I'm too tired to do it, after all, I haven't eaten for a long time, and finally it's finished, and the overseers just threw in a few buckets of food, as if feeding pigs, and all the children present went over one by one and grabbed them with their hands to eat, Xiaobao couldn't help it, those things looked so disgusting, but everyone else ate like this, and he couldn't be special!
Soon, the potion in the furnace was boiled, and Granny Meng also came back, looked at the things in the furnace, and let out a strange hiss from her mouth, and a group of children lined up one after another, and came to the front of the Dan furnace, and a dark shadow supervisor scooped the potion in the Dan furnace into bowls one by one, and then gave it to each child to drink.
Li Xiaobao had no way to hide, he could only learn from them to drink the things in the bowl, a feeling that stimulated the whole body like an electric current stringed into Xiaobao's body and into the brain, he was full of excitement, and he actually saw himself, he found that his body was standing there, and he was watching blankly beside him, and the other children were the same, each of their souls flashed with white light, but all of them were expressionless, and Xiaobao didn't dare to mess around, for fear that Meng Po would find out.
It turns out that this is Meng Po's soul tea, which can extract the soul from the body, and forget all the things in her past and present lives, she uses this method to seize other people's bodies, and the separated souls are sent back to the reincarnation channel to start anew, and the qualified bodies left behind are sold to the princes and nobles of the mainland.
"Bring them back!" Granny Meng instructed one of the shadow overseers, and then Xiaobao and the others took them back to the cell, and then Granny Meng asked the rest of her men to put all the bodies left in the hall into a grid in one of the walls of the hall, and each grid was filled with transparent potions, which should be used to preserve these bodies.
Xiao Bao and the others still returned to their original room, because they drank the Revenant Tea, and the overseer didn't bother to pay attention to them, so they went out by themselves.
"Hey, are you alright?" asked Po quietly.
It was a long time before I heard Sonny's voice, "It's all right, it's strange, why is it all right?" asked Sonny.
"I put the Reinvenating Stone in the potion, so the potion didn't have the original effect, we didn't lose our original consciousness, but our body is gone!" Xiaobao said sadly.
Meng Liang and Xiao Yilang, who were next to "Oops...", made painful sounds, and they also came to their senses.
"How's it going, are you all right?" asked Xiaobao with concern.
"That damn old monster took our bodies like this, I'll fuck her ancestors!" Meng Liang said fiercely.
"Listen to me first, I have a plan, it's a little difficult, and it's up to us to do it or not!" At that moment, Li Xiaobao said his thoughts, and several people added that whether they can succeed or not depends on how they implement it!
