Chapter 13 Huangquan Road
"If it's a more real ghost at this time, and you've been hit in the process of detaining the soul, you have to give some punishment! The old woman herself has not long lived, and this stimulus may be the next target of soul arrest. ”
Su Bai recalled the stern style of the Yin officials in his previous memory, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Fortunately, he has just taken office, and there are still many people who are not so humane.
"I'll let you go this time."
Back in the ward of 1208, he looked at the old man who was a little uneasy and waved his sleeves.
"Your wish I will let my mortal agent fulfill it for you, you will follow me to the underworld first, don't walk around casually, otherwise if something happens and becomes a lonely ghost or is eaten by other ghosts, don't blame me for not reminding."
The old man hurriedly nodded nervously.
Su Bai turned outward, took out the Yin Official Token in his hand, and his mind moved.
In the next second, a cloud of red light erupted on the token, shooting straight ahead.
In an instant, a thick fog from nowhere began to churn through the room, and quickly spread into the distance, forming a dark and narrow path.
The distance ahead was far longer than the length of a hospital hallway.
It's clear that another mysterious time and space has been connected.
"Come with me."
Su Bai said lightly, and then took the lead and walked onto the path, and the old man was very in awe when he saw this, and hurriedly followed.
In fact, Su Bai also knew that this was not a formal way to open a ghost door, and it could even be regarded as a kind of "smuggling".
It's just that now there is no ghost gate, and he can only take this tricky way to enter and exit the underworld.
After walking a distance, the floor on which my feet were stepping gradually became cracked and brittle, and finally slowly turned into charred black dust.
When he saw that weird purple and black flowers appeared on both sides of the road in front of him again, Su Bai breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's fine."
The fact that these flowers are intact proves that at least in his absence, no other terrifying ghosts have invaded here.
"This ...... Is this Huangquan Road? ”
The old man looked around with some dumbfoundedness.
The strange purple-black finger-like flowers on both sides, the dark and oppressive environment around them, and the ghostly black shadows around them who couldn't see their faces clearly, the roaring and whispering and crying were all so harsh and weird, and the language spoken was like the whispers of the ancient gods, the syllables were obscure, chaotic, and dizzy.
All this made him, who had never been in contact with ghosts and gods, feel so frightened that his legs were trembling.
Su Bai didn't know if it was Huangquan Road, so he didn't reply, maintaining an indifferent style.
The old man didn't dare to ask more, just looked around, and was careful with every step.
Walking a little slower, a twisted black shadow on the side suddenly pounced on him, fortunately blocked by the flowers outside the road, but he was still frightened, and hurriedly followed the footsteps of the ghost.
In fact, the roar of these black shadows is naturally not the so-called ancient god whispering, but just the Chinese of the old era.
"Fresh Soul ......"
"Looks so delicious......"
"Hee-hee, I really want to eat him......"
"Come and let me take a bite...... Just one bite ......"
……
These hoarse and low-roaring things were simply like the lowest bloodthirsty beasts, which made Su Bai, who could understand it, also frown and was very disgusted.
Soon, the officer's room was in sight.
Pushing open the door and walking in, the old man only felt a huge pressure falling from the sky, his body was heavy, and he didn't even dare to raise his head, walking slowly step by step.
Su Bai walked to the left wall and picked up an empty tablet.
"You're going to stay here for a while before you're done with things."
The old man panicked.
Su Bai beckoned, and saw the old man's soul turn into a white light and fly into the tablet in his hand.
And the blank part on it slowly emerged with the name of the old man and the time of his death.
At the same time, his merit rose by 50 points, reaching 308 points.
This merit point is somewhat related to the merits and sins of the detained ghosts, for example, this old man belongs to a good person, and it is considered a good deed to let him enter the underworld and not become a lonely ghost, so the merit will be added more.
And with the increase of merit, a faint golden light that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye gradually appeared on the surface of his own soul body.
"This should be the legendary golden light of merit."
He didn't know the usefulness of the Golden Light of Merit for the time being, but just the malice that could help him immune to most of the goblins was already precious.
After putting the tablet back, Su Bai did not leave immediately, but thought about it and went to the back door again.
Pushing open the back door, the fog in the distance was still thick, and there seemed to be some ghostly black shadow looming in the dark and deep depths, but it was impossible to see it really.
"I don't know if that horrible baby monster from last time is still around here."
After much thought, he decided to try again.
Holding up the paper umbrella and holding the chain in his hand, he added a little security, and he once again walked cautiously towards the depths of the fog.
This time it was much calmer than before, and after walking some distance, he soon reached the part of the road where he had found the gap in the flowers.
It is even obvious that these cracks are slowly expanding!
He crouched down and took a closer look, and the dead flowers seemed to have been crushed by some behemoth, and the rhizomes were broken, flattened, and the sap of the stems like blood seeped into the soil, staining the area like a murder scene, dark red with a somewhat unpleasant smell of rotten flesh.
He tried to touch a close crushed petal that still had a grayish-white slime on it. It was slimy and cold to the touch, making him feel uncomfortable all over.
Even an unspeakable irritability, malice and other negative emotions in his heart seem to be hooked, surging wildly, the green tendons in his temples are agitating, and his spirit is in a state of excitement and rage against his original intention, and he has the urge to destroy and devour everything around him!
"Shhh
He stood up and staggered back two steps, the golden light of merit on his body shook slightly, and quickly eliminated all the abnormal negative emotions in his heart, allowing him to come back to his senses.
"This underworld...... A hundred times more dangerous than I thought! ”
He was a little scared in his heart.
"The terrifying baby monster before, now there is this untouchable, unspeakably malicious giant bug......"
He even began to wonder if he could really rebuild the underworld in such a hellish place?!
But he didn't have time to think about it, and the dark shadows around him seemed to smell the smell and slowly gathered in twos and threes, and there was a strange cry of a baby faintly heard from the depths of the distant mist.
The aura of ominous and dark seems to be slowly approaching.
Su Bai's heart tightened, he didn't dare to stay here for a long time, turned around and ran in the direction of the errand room.
It wasn't until he was back in the safe area of the lights, and there were no more weird whispers and cries in his ears, that he was truly relieved.
It's just that there is always a string in his heart that is tight.
"The gap in that flower is getting bigger and bigger, if you don't find a way to fill it, will there be more and more terrifying monsters coming here?"
"This place can be destroyed once, not necessarily a second time."
Those monsters don't dare to approach here now, maybe it's not strong enough, but who knows if one day some terrifying thing will pass by and crush this place like an ant?
"Hurry up and strengthen yourself!"
That's the only thing he can do at the moment.
