Chapter 32 A Plank Road
Jiu'er fell into the Lethe River in despair, but saw a whirlpool coming, wrapped her tightly in it, and disappeared in an instant......
Bai Qiu suddenly became anxious, and hurriedly shouted to Xiaochuan to save people: "Xiaochuan, quickly, use your magic power to rescue Jiu'er, why can't I see her?" How deep is your river......" Bai Qiulian asked anxiously.
Xi Lichuan was also covered with sweat, his fingers kept tying knots, and he was reciting various spells in his mouth, trying to lift Jiu'er out of the river, but the river was still rolling, where was Jiu'er's shadow......
Bai Qiulian cried loudly: "It's over, woo woo woo, I lost Jiu'er, what should I do Xiaochuan?" I can't do this little thing, Jiu'er! Where are you!! ”
The wind on the river was gusting, accompanied by the breathtaking fragrance of flowers on the other side, and there was still no trace of Jiu'er, as if she had never been here.
And Jiu'er, who had just jumped into the water, was floating alone in the rolling Lechuan River, surrounded by a large number of greedy lonely ghosts who seemed to want to eat and gnaw her, but for some reason they didn't dare to approach. Her heart was already full of sadness and despair, the hurt of her closest people, betrayal, selfishness, and greed, made her completely give up her attachment to the world, and she no longer struggled at the moment, but gently closed her eyes, and wanted to forget...... Disappear...... Or, flee the ......
Suddenly, she felt a whirlpool around her, and in an instant she was swept into the depths of the river.
"That's it, this is my fate, I can let the whirlpool be brought to the bottom of the Lechuan River, how can I still have a chance to live? Hehe, I'm really miserable, I can die again if I do ghosts, I say that people die as ghosts, ghosts die as deaf, deaf death as Xi, Xi dies as Yi, Yi dies as a micro, and micro dies as invisible. It doesn't matter where you're going, what you're going to be, just get out of this sad place as soon as possible. Farewell, this world, just when I never came ......"
Jiu'er closed her eyes and spread her hands, without a trace of struggle, letting the water waves take her through freely......
I don't know how long she floated, Jiu'er suddenly felt a heat in her wrist, and the bird-shaped birthmark in her forearm emitted a scorching golden light, as if there was an invisible force, dragging her forward quickly, flickering left and right, winding and circling, I don't know how long it took, Jiu'er seemed to have hit something, and finally stopped.
Jiu'er opened her eyes in surprise and saw that there was no ghost around her, and there was only a quiet pool of clear river water in front of her. If you look closely, there is a small door in the water, and the door panel seems to be made of black gold and black iron, which is heavy and hard.
Jiu'er pushed hard, but it was like an ant shaking a tree, unable to shake a single bit. Just as she was about to turn around and leave, she suddenly saw a mysterious star totem on the door, and after a closer look, she found that the center of the totem was actually a vacant star position, although she couldn't see the specific appearance, but Jiu'er seemed to feel that it was very familiar, and immediately put her face over to take a closer look.
I saw a cold light flashing, and the star birthmark in the corner of Jiu'er's eyes actually sent out a starlight and flew straight towards the center of the totem, and the light instantly filled the center of the entire picture.
Jiu'er couldn't close her mouth in shock: How could the door open? Is it a coincidence? What's behind this?
After hesitating for a moment, she still pushed the door and walked in, just entered, only to hear a click, the door of the dark iron suddenly closed behind her, and when she looked back, she found that the inside of the door was also engraved with the same totem as the front, so in this way, does it mean that she can repeatedly open this door with the birthmark of the stars?
But how is that possible? The star in the corner of the eye is the key to open this secret passage? Xinglan, who are you?
Jiu'er's mind was full of questions, but now she wanted to know where this was? I've never heard of a back door in the underworld?
Jiu'er looked at the surroundings carefully, and finally saw clearly: here, it is actually a plank road!
Beneath your feet is the clear water, surrounded by lush aquatic plants. The ground is high and low, and the water is of different depths. The plank road floats above the water, and with the terrain it twists left and right, winding forward, and there are several steps up or down at each stage.
The further I went, the more open it became, and before I knew it, my eyes lit up, and when I looked up, my eyes were already suspended in a boundless green bush.
Sunlight? Well, is it really sunshine? Wait, how can there be such a warm place in this underworld?
Jiu'er looked at it: so beautiful, where is this? A lush mountain forest, flowing water, everywhere is never seen fairy grass swaying in the wind, the leaves full of water droplets are shining brightly, the most surprising thing is that there is her favorite dog tail grass here, blooming all over the mountains......
Jiu'er walked slowly on the grass in surprise, and inadvertently seemed to have stepped on something, picked it up and saw that it was actually an olive-sized milky white icy stone, and when he looked closely, there were a few lines of words on it: "Similar to the moon in the world, the phantom of the passing years dances the red dust, the ethereal valley for several years, and it lives up to its eyebrows." ”
It's such a beautiful poem, I don't know which infatuated ghost left it, Jiu'er likes this stone very much, so he put it in his sleeve casually and continued to walk forward.
The smoke was so thick that she couldn't tell whether it was real or a dream. It's so beautiful here, it's not an exaggeration to say it's a fairyland on earth, and, what's over there? Jiu'er actually saw that the grass on one side was full of a large field of fiery red and enthusiastic flowers on the other side!
How can it be? Isn't it true that the flowers of the other side can only bloom in hell? So why is there such a large area of delicate bright red here?
Moreover, what makes Jiu'er even more incredible is that in this large sea of flowers, there is a tender green leaf under every flower swaying in the wind to gently hold it up, and let the flowers swing wantonly, the leaves are steadily protecting them.
Jiu'er remembered that Bai Qiulian once told her that the flower on the other side is a kind of flower that blooms in the underworld, blooming first and then growing leaves. When it blooms, the leaves don't grow, and when the leaves grow, they don't bloom. The leaves do not fall in winter, the leaves fall and bloom in summer, bloom for a thousand years, fall for a thousand years, and the flowers and leaves will never meet.
But right now, in this large sea of flowers, every flower is closely connected to the leaves, and it is inseparable.
It's such a strange place, everything is reversed, like a dream......
Wait, ...... dreams?
A meadow of dog tail grass?
Over here...... Wasn't this the place where she had dreamed of the man in the black shirt?
Jiu'er was shocked, how could this be? Looking around, yes, yes, this is the place, exactly like the dream! So, shouldn't the man in the dream be in the ......?
Jiu'er looked around...... Not far away, there is really a peach blossom tree full of flowers, smelling the fragrance of flowers on the other side, a voice seems to echo in Jiu'er's ears: Under the peach blossom tree, next to the Sansheng Stone, do you still remember, promise me ten miles of red makeup?
Jiu'er walked over gently, and under the tree stood a flowing man in a black shirt with his back to her, with long dark green hair, untied and untied behind him, smooth and smooth like fine silk satin.
Jiu'er was about to speak, but the man turned around: "Girl, you're finally back......"
