Chapter Seventy-Five: The Messenger of Doom [Asking for Rewards, Asking for Recommendations, Asking for Collections]
The eight men divided into three groups, and as each of them escaped into the fork in the road, the abyss returned to deathly tranquility.
Although they walked separately, the speed at which everyone traveled remained the same after coordination, and every other hour they would communicate with each other through their hearts and say goodbye, so even if they didn't walk on the same road, they could be regarded as going hand in hand.
Right...
Mo Sang's heart is small, he doesn't deal with the two masters, and he is not familiar with it, he only knows that one is a Taoist priest and the other is a monk, but he didn't think that the two old men would be so powerful soon after they came to the underworld from the earth, and he didn't believe these statements at all, so he always spoke out.
"I said, can you two stop babbling and saying things I don't understand, now in the 21st century, engage in some feudal superstitions, like charlatans!"
He ate the spirit fruit while being sarcastic, and threw it on the ground after a few bites, as if it was worthless, so that Kuyou could see it, and he had to pick it up behind his butt?
"The loser..."
"Try it again, don't think that if you claim to be a master, you can think that you can hear it, this emperor is a man of the hour who stirs up the situation in the future, how can you two old gods understand?"
"Dead fat..."
"Hey, I'm so angry with the emperor, believe it or not, I'll smoke you!"
He stopped his hand in the air and pretended to make a gesture, but the two masters ignored him at all, ignored him directly, and walked straight forward, reciting the Dharma name in his mouth!
Along the way, Mo Sang walked alone in front, and often the sound of preaching the Fa would come from behind, which gave him a headache.
Now he is ignored again when he is mad, and what he hates is grinding his teeth and stomping his feet.
"You wait, don't expect the emperor to save you if you encounter danger later, hum..."
"You are Tianjiao, why don't you go to the Nine Heavens, Amitabha!"
"Here it is again, I'm so angry with the emperor, wait... What do you mean by that?"
"You're so powerful, why don't you go to heaven? It's terrible to have no culture, and there is no way..."
Middle...
Mi Ke watched Kuyou reciting with a bamboo slip, and felt very funny, and met him in hell, squatting in prison together, and escaping from prison together, which can be regarded as friends in distress.
I never thought that this rough man could have such a great interest in the two methods of Taoism and Buddhism.
"Kuyou, tell me, what do you mean by these words you recorded?"
"I don't understand it yet, but the master said that practice makes perfect, and the artistic conception will naturally be understood!"
"If the artistic conception never arrives, then do you still recite it?"
"Of course I have to memorize it, although I don't understand what it means, but I think there must be something powerful in it, and I want to find out the essence of them while memorizing them!"
Mi Ke was very surprised, he didn't expect that he couldn't say anything about him, everything was changing silently, even Ku You, the guy who used to be simple-minded and had developed limbs was not the same!
Since entering Fuyin Mountain, under the reminder of Fourteen, Mi Ke has been paying attention to this problem, since he can't see the reason, let's find an entry point to try first.
"Then tell me about it, since I just met the master and they drank Meng Po soup, do you think anything has changed?"
"I knew you'd ask this question!" Kuyu grinned at Miko, a smug look that he had guessed what he was thinking.
"Strange, how did you know I was going to ask this question?"
"Both masters said that you are a smart person, so you will definitely ask, and after listening to what they say, I also think you will definitely ask!"
When Mi Ke heard this, he suddenly had an illusion that he didn't know the true face of Lushan, could it be that he missed something?
"Uh... What else do the masters say?"
"They say, if you don't understand, put your feet up, and if you don't understand, raise your head a little higher!"
What does that mean?
"Stand on your tiptoes and raise your head again..."
Mike silently recited these two sentences in his heart, always having an illusory feeling of looking at the moon in the water.
It's not that he doesn't believe it, but he really hasn't understood it yet, and he still remembers that when he was in the body of the Yin Qi Wolong in Fuyin Mountain, the masters also said a few words and immediately let him be empowered, otherwise how could he have the ninth-level soul power at this time!
"It's amazing, it's really unusual, why don't I also try that Meng Po soup?" This thought flashed in his mind, but he immediately rejected it, in case Linglong forgot it, then he might as well have just jumped off the cliff and died!
"Kuyou, I still don't understand, can you explain?"
"Is this a shameless question? The master said that if you still don't understand, then you will jump off a cliff and fall to your death!"
After Kuyou finished speaking, he smiled, and recited it again with the bamboo slip, leaving Mi Ke alone with a shocked face.
Kuyou still understands the meaning of not being ashamed to ask?
Jumping off a cliff and falling to their deaths, how did the two masters know what they thought?
Xuan, it's too mysterious!
Left...
Fourteen, the three of them finally stayed alone together, naturally there were endless words, comradeship, life and death, even if they were brothers.
So along the way, they were filled with the most laughter, and Fourteen felt that it was the happiest day of his life.
Fifteen and Fifteen thought the same way, they knew that their good brother had run almost the entire soul world in order to help them recover their forgotten memories, although it was very light when they talked about it, but when they thought about it, the suffering they suffered during this period must have been very unbearable.
The three of them were reunited, and they gradually drifted away in the dark passage, but a faint light and shadow floated behind them, but none of them noticed it.
Suddenly, Fourteen stopped, and immediately transmitted: "Mi Ke, Mo San, there are three more forks in the road ahead of us!"
"In the middle, too..."
"It's the same on the right, it's exactly the same as when you came in..."
The eight of them stopped almost at the same time, and no one expected such a situation!
Three roads regenerate three forks, even if eight people walk one person, there is one more, and once everyone is completely dispersed, then even safety cannot be guaranteed.
What to do?
Everyone brainstormed, and the information was transmitted at a rapid pace.
An hour later, in various decisions, a safe plan was finally come up, for safety reasons, the team members did not disperse, arbitrarily chose a path and left a mark on the stone wall, in case of any accidents, it was convenient for the other two teams to search.
In this way, the fourteen of them still chose the left, Michael and Kuyou also chose the middle, and Mossan and the masters continued to walk towards the right road.
Then, not long after, the same thing happened again, and there were three more roads under the fork in the road.
Everyone gritted their teeth and made a mark to continue with the previous choice.
However, the road seemed to be far from end, and the situation of the three roads was also frequent, and the further back you go, the narrower the road became, and the three groups of people were more and more separated.
For a while, weirdness sprouted in everyone's hearts like seeds, and the pace gradually slowed down a lot...
After another half a day, evening came, and a fork in the road appeared in front of Miko and Kuyou that could only be passed sideways.
They stopped there for a long time, and when they felt a breeze blowing inside, the two of them were overjoyed and hurriedly got in, and it didn't take long for their eyes to light up and suddenly brighten up!
"Great, come out!"
"Wait, what is this place?"
Without waiting for Kuyou to cheer, Mi Ke suddenly saw a yellow river, which was flooded with yin qi and screens everywhere!
"Yellow Springs !!"
Before they came, they had inquired that the yellow spring flowing through the abyss of the soul burial was an underground river, so why did there be a yellow spring under the open air?
The two of them walked vigilantly towards the river, looking at the distant distance, there was a wide flat land opposite, on which all kinds of flowers and plants grew, and the strong smell of medicine came with the breeze.
"Look, Herb Garden!"
"That means the other side is the end of the abyss, and it seems that we have chosen the right path!"
Mi Ke was a little excited, he didn't encounter any danger or evil spirit along the way, but he felt that the name of the forbidden place of the Soul Burial Abyss was a bit exaggerated, maybe it was all a fallacy based on false rumors.
After he passed on the situation on his side, he quickly got replies from both sides, saying that they were about to find a way out, see you in the herb garden!
"It seems that all roads lead to Rome, and these forks in the road are just a scare. Mi Ke thought to himself, and said to Kuyou: "They all have a way to get to the other side, now let's find a nearby place to see where there is a bridge to cross the river!"
With a greeting, the two walked along the side of the screen.
However, the fourteen on the left and Mo San on the right did not receive any news from Miko at all, but at this moment, there was also a fork in the road in front of them that could only be passed sideways.
Sensing the breeze blowing with the wind, the two groups of people quickly got in, and coincidentally, when they came out of the path, they also saw the Yellow Spring River in front of them, and even the Yin Qi screen and the fragrance of medicinal herbs were the same as what Mi Ke had seen before.
However, at this time, none of the three groups of people who were on the side of the Yellow Spring could see anyone, not only that, but the waiting Fourteen and Mo Sang all sent out the Heart Whisper Secret Technique, and even the news they got was exactly the same.
"Let's go, Michael and Moissan, they're almost at the exit, so they want us to cross the river first..."
"Old man, let's find a place to cross the river by ourselves, and the few of them are almost on the other side..."
After walking down the river for about half an hour, Michael and Kuyu were a little frustrated, for they did not see any bridges to cross the river.
But at this moment, a boat appeared out of nowhere on the surface of the Yellow Spring.
If you look closely, the hull of the boat is not large, the style looks like a dilapidated fishing boat, and there is a soul standing at the bow of the boat holding a bamboo raft, rowing from side to side, stepping on the waves!
"Come, the old man will take you across the river?"
The rowing soul looked like a kind-faced old man, and he said to Michael and Kuyu after docking the boat.
"How did the old boatman know we were going to cross the river?"
Not to mention the appearance of a yellow spring of unknown origin in this abyss of burial souls, and a wooden boat that can cross the river jumped out of nowhere, all these scenes are too suspicious for Mi Ke, who has always been cautious by nature!
"Young people, don't panic, the old man has been the messenger of doom here since ancient times, the Netherworld Yellow Spring, the ferry of all living beings, but all the creatures who want to go to the other side have to take my soul boat to make a leap of progress and go further!"
The boatman's face was smiling, and there was no thought of refusal, Mi Ke came closer and looked again, although the wooden boat was a little old, but it looked relatively solid.
There is no way to cross the river as far as the eye can see, and it seems that you can only take this soul boat to pass!
Although he couldn't fully trust it yet, he had no choice, so he asked casually: "The boy has been polite and thanked in advance, may I ask what the old boatman is called?"
"Hehe, you don't have to be polite, my name is --- Charon!"
