Chapter 254: Traces of Time Magical Spring
The 'ghost diet' is also one of the legends about the underworld. It is said that a scholar who kept filial piety for his mother in the cemetery for three years, one day, when he was dizzy with hunger, he suddenly came to a food street.
On the food street, everything was sold, and when he bought a few buns, after eating them, he bought a lot of them and kept them for later. When the day came, when he looked at the bun he bought again, he was surprised to find that the bun in his hand turned out to be some dirty, centipede, grasshopper and other poisonous insects. This real thing is widely circulated.
Lei Yu's consciousness never left Sister Liu for a moment, from her to the chicken coop to catch chickens, fish in the pond, staring at it without moving, for fear that something would go wrong, but fortunately, everything was normal.
"Sister Liu, how long have you been here?" Lei Yu asked casually beside her, watching her skillfully cut fish and slaughter chickens, chatting with her.
"Didn't you see the 'years' mark on my forehead?" Sister Liu asked with a smile, "What a newcomer, I don't know anything!"
"Oh, are they the three wrinkles on the forehead?"
"That's right! Coarse lines represent 100 years, and fine lines represent 50 years! Here, age is distinguished by lines, not by appearance, haha, haha!"
"Then Sister Liu has been here for two hundred and fifty years?" asked Lei Yu in surprise.
"It's not all, almost two hundred and eighty years! In another twenty years, Sister Liu will go to another shijie, alas... Speaking of this, Sister Liu's expression was a little gloomy, revealing a trace of confusion. "I've lived here for so long, and I'm finally leaving!"
Lei Yu can understand Sister Liu's mood at the moment: "Aren't the people in the yang world the same, when they are old and frail, or seriously ill, or encounter accidents, and have no way to return to heaven, and have to face the impending death, isn't that kind of sadness and fear of the unknown Shijie?"
It's just that they don't know that the other shijie they are about to enter will be so beautiful, not as fearful and terrible as they imagined!
"Sister Liu, do you know where you're going to go in twenty years?"
"No one knows! What I heard is also a rumor, and no one can confirm it, because those who left have no possibility of returning. It is said that the people here, once the expiration date, will be reincarnated in the world! Alas, I heard that Shijie is extremely terrifying, there is no trust between each other, thieves are everywhere, and there are often plagues, wars, poverty, and injustice、... , etc., it is said that there are still people eating people. Alas, if you don't say it, it's frustrating and scary to say. Sister Liu said with a sigh, showing an uneasy look.
"Isn't there theft, fighting, and injustice here?" asked Lei Yu in surprise.
"Who would dare in Yama City? unless he is tired of life and wants to go to the 'City of Death'! As long as these things happen, then he will lose his freedom forever!
Here, you can rest assured that no one dares to lie to you, bully you, rob you, or even threaten or beat you! As long as he dares, he will be severely punished!" Sister Liu said proudly.
Also, here, there is no injustice, everyone works hard, as long as you work, you don't have to worry about not having food, no clothes, and no one has heard of people dying of illness. ”
"Won't you get sick, what if you accidentally cut your finger and break your leg?" asked Lei Yu in surprise.
"Haha, haha, this is also considered a disease? cut your finger, put the wound on the 'Yin Stone', it will heal in a while, break your hands and feet, after it is fixed, you can quickly heal it with the 'Yin Stone', even if the internal organs are broken, drink a few times with the decoction made with the 'Yin Grass', and it will be cured soon!"
"Is it really so effective?" Lei Yu was simply stunned, Sister Liu described this shijie too well. He hurriedly asked, "If you fall too hard, will you... Will.... He was embarrassed to say death, because he knew that for the people of the Yang world, this shijie, this shijie were all dead people, so the word 'death' was always difficult to say, and he couldn't find words to describe it for a while.
Sister Liu looked at him strangely, "Could it be anything?"
"Oh, you want to say, if you fall too hard, will you leave this shijie!" Sister Liu finally reacted and said.
"Well, that's what it means!" Thunderstorm replied, scratching his scalp, embarrassed.
"I was hurt too badly, and I even fell into a few pieces, of course I will leave this shijie, as for where I went, I don't know, because I haven't yujian! Okay, the dish is done, let's talk while eating." ”
Before the thunderstorm, I bought a lot of 'Stygian Grass'. The little stone is highly respected for this spiritual grass. It is said that it is one of the main ingredients for nourishing the soul and making the 'Tianyuan Soul Gathering Pill', and the 'Hell God Monarch', one of the founders of the Demon Dao, is an elixir that is originally refined.
According to the "Fun Facts", this pill has a peculiar curative effect, which can not only treat any internal injuries, but also prolong life and increase the level of cultivation by taking it. It's just the main material needed to refine the elixir, especially this 'Yin Grass', which is very difficult to find, and the people who can get this elixir are even rarer, they only hear its name, and it is difficult to see it!
The large dining room, a wooden table, the wood grain of the table top is clearly visible, like a natural, beautiful picture, it looks very comfortable. Thunderstorm couldn't help but watch carefully, and couldn't bear to put the dinner plate on it.
"Is this table beautiful?" Sister Liu asked with interest, covering her mouth and smiling.
"Well, the wood grain of this tabletop is so beautiful, so beautiful!" Lei Yu said seriously.
"You and his answer are exactly the same, the first time I saw this table, I praised it like this!" After Sister Liu said this, the smile on her face slowly disappeared, followed by a burst of confused eyes, and it passed like this for a while.
"Sister Liu, is he your lover?"
"Well, we've been together for two hundred and seventy-eight years, and he's gone, leaving me alone, still in this world. ... , I don't know how he's doing in another shijie?... Alas, what a man, I hope he doesn't suffer,...。 ”
Lei Yu looked at her quietly, didn't disturb her contemplation, in the time of the sun, the two have been dependent on each other for more than a thousand years, that kind of attachment, where will it be a year and a half, you can forget!
"Look at me, I'm out of shape again, Brother Lei, I'm sorry!" Sister Liu said apologetically, with a smile on her pretty face, getting rid of some embarrassment.
"This table, when I first came, when someone gave me more than a million coins, I asked someone to help me make it, the age of this tree, it is said that it is more than 500 years old, I bought it with 3,000 coins, and made this table and chairs. In fact, a pair of tables and chairs, it doesn't cost much, a little haode, only three or four hundred.
When I bought the tree, my friends said that I was rich and that I was not worth it! But you all praised its texture, and I thought it was worth the money!"
"Sister Liu, everyone who comes here first has to pass through the 'Wanshi Building', right?"
"Well, yes, but you're the only exception, haha, haha!"
"Do you remember the people you saw when you came, most of them should be old and frail, why, I didn't see these people here?"
"It seems that your observation is really strong! When I came, it was also the same as you said, old and frail, full of wrinkles, sickly, haha, haha!" Sister Liu recalled her appearance at that time, and a knowing smile appeared on her face.
"When we walked through the city gate cave and drank the 'divine spring water', people suddenly had spirits, sickness and wrinkles faded, and there was no more!
I remember that the women who came with us at that time were surprised, excited, and happy after drinking the 'divine spring water' and seeing each other's changed appearances, and they all hugged each other. Being scolded by those on duty, saying that we are a bunch of hillbillies, making a fuss!
The old man who came with him also became young and energetic, and he looked at us with a look of fascination, haha, haha! Don't say it, some of the people who came with him met there once, and they really became husband and wife! Later, they lived younger and younger, and their energy was inexhaustible!" Saying this, Sister Liu showed a bright and happy smile on her face.
"Is this true? People who live in the yang world have so many rumors about the unknown shijie, about the underworld, so fearful of the end of life, so reluctant, so reluctant about the wealth they have.
Some terminally ill people do not hesitate to spend a lot of money to maintain their longevity for a while and to live for a long time, and they would rather endure painful torture than give up a glimmer of life.
"Come, eat the dishes, how does it taste? I'm in a hurry today, and I don't have any dishes, I'll entertain you!" Sister Liu smiled and said apologetically, "Sister Liu's cooking skills are really good, it's delicious, I'm not welcome, I ate a lot." "Lei Yu is a person who can afford to take it and put it down, and after Xiao Shi checked that the food was fine, Lei Yu also ate it with confidence. "It was worth it to have this experience!"
"Is there only one Yama City here, and all the people live in this Yama City?"
"No, as far as I know, there are four cities in this land. Yama City is one of them, it is the head of the body, responsible for the administration, there is the "city of vain death" for the most heinous and guilty people, the "Fengdu City" for the management of public affairs, production and life, and the "City of Bliss" for tourism and some special people!
"These cities are not far apart, can you go casually?"
"In terms of distance, it is quite far, but between the cities, there is a transmission channel connection, and it can be reached in half a day, but it costs a lot of money, to go to the nearest 'Fengdu City', it costs 5,000 Stygian coins, and to the farthest 'Elysium City', it costs 10,000 Stygian coins. If it doesn't matter, no one will spend that unjust money.
"Then Sister Liu, have you ever been to 'Elysium City'?"
