"Since we have entered this Siyin Building, then we are naturally going to Ghost Alley."

Gu Changan replied nonchalantly.

Mother-in-law Siyin scooped out two bowls of medicinal juice with a wooden spoon and laid them out on the wooden table: "Then don't rub it off, die early and be reincarnated early!" A bowl of forgetful soup is ten yuan, and two bowls are twenty yuan, the price is fair, and Tong Suo is not bullied. ”

Gu Changan shook his head and chuckled, then took out twenty copper coins, slapped them on the wooden table, and then picked up one of the so-called forgetful soups, blew the hot air on it, and slowly drank it dry. Chen Xuanzong also did the same.

I don't know what kind of herbs this bowl of medicinal juice is made of, and the entrance is extremely bitter, similar to the feeling of chewing Coptis chinensis.

But Gu Changan did not question this Si Yin's mother-in-law and the so-called forgetful soup she was peddling.

This is because the ghost alley is deep in the low-lying underground of Tiandu City, and the yin and filth are quite heavy.

Although Granny Si Yin likes to pretend to be a ghost when she speaks, the forgetful soup she sells is a bitter medicine to get rid of the yin and filth in the ghost alley.

People who have used it naturally say that it is good, but I am afraid that there are very few people who say it badly.

Maybe it's because those people really passed away before they had time to give a bad review......

All in all, Ghost Alley is by no means a heaven and earth like the Tiandu City on earth, but a strange and strange land full of filth and dirt, and full of possibilities.

- despite its proximity to Tiandu City.

Mother-in-law Si Yin put away the copper coins with satisfaction, took back the two broken bowls, and glared at the two: "Okay, the money has been paid, and the soup has been drunk, hurry up to the Nai He Bridge and see if Lord Yan will accept you today." ”

Gu Changan and Chen Xuanzong bypassed the wooden table and walked towards the depths of the main hall of Siyin Tower.

In front of it is a pool of stagnant water, above which a stone arch bridge is erected, and a stone pillar lamp is erected on each side of the bridge.

Under the dim lights, a stone tablet at the head of the bridge is clearly visible, and the three big characters of "Nai He Bridge" are engraved on it.

Gu Chang'an and Chen Xuanzong passed through the so-called Nai He Bridge together and came to a flat stone pier.

Ahead was still a motionless pool of stagnant water, leading into the dark depths with no end in sight. And the stone walls of Siyin Tower on both sides of them also seem to extend infinitely into this pool of stagnant water, which looks also very strange and weird.

Gu Chang'an said in his heart, according to common sense, it is impossible for there to be such a large space in the interior of the small dilapidated building of Siyin Building......

Chen Xuanzong dispelled his doubts: "There should be a magic enchantment here. ”

The two waited on the stone pier for a while, and suddenly a lone lamp the size of a bean dot suddenly lit up in the bottomless backwater lake in front of them.

The lone lamp gradually approached the stone pier, and then there was the sound of oars.

It was a captain, rocking a small boat and leaning a little bit onto the stone pier.

The captain was an uncle in his early forties, with a stocky face and a mouth full of stubble, and when he saw the two of them, he smiled enthusiastically and cheerfully: "The two of you are going to Ghost Alley, right?" Hurry up and get on board! ”

That's a little angry...... Gu Changan jumped into the captain's boat first, and his mood was three points clearer.

Chen Xuanzong was a little angry, his body flew up, and he also landed in the boat.

The captain turned the bow of the boat, returned to the stern and swung his oars, heading for the depths of the bottomless backwater lake ahead.

After only two zhang of distance, the wall of Siyin Tower extending into the water had disappeared without a trace.

Gu Changan only felt that this space was extremely empty, as if it was boundless in all directions, and it was very dark, darker than a dark night without stars and no moon.

If it weren't for a piece of mahogany on the bow of the captain and a wind lamp, it would be absolutely suffocating darkness.

Under the light of the wind lamp, a lonely boat quietly rowed through the mirror-like backwater lake, throwing off two crooked ripples on both sides of the ship's side.

After walking forward like this for about a quarter of an hour, it was still dark in all directions, dead and silent, and there was no end in sight, Gu Changan finally couldn't help but ask:

"Captain, what the hell is this place?"

The captain shook the oar and said with a smile: "Childe, this place is called Youquanhai. ”

Gu Changan let out two sneers of "hehe", and deliberately tentatively said: "I think it's just a big backwater lake, and you dare to call it a sea?" It's just a grandstanding! ”

The captain didn't stop rocking the oars, and the smile on his face was as usual: "Childe is wrong, Childe is wrong!" Although the waters are not as rough as the real sea, they are really wide.

"If you don't know the route, you can't be this ferryman at all. Even the ferryman who did this with the old man, there were many people who got lost in this secluded spring sea because of a little deviation in the route, and they could not find the way back, nor the way to the ghost alley, and completely fell into the death situation of having no way to enter the ground and no door to the sky. ”

Such an exaggeration...... Gu Changan was really a little surprised in his heart.

The captain then explained, "But Childe doesn't have to worry too much. Only those who enter the Ghost Alley for the first time must pass through the Sea of Hidden Springs once. As long as Childe has been to Ghost Alley once, he can naturally take other shortcuts in the future...... There are several shortcuts to the ghost alleys in the capital on this day! ”

Gu Changan thought to himself, but the book "Kyushu Scenery Chronicles" in his Langhuan Book Pavilion did not have such a detailed record on it......

But at the moment when he became suspicious, the phantom of the palace with thousands of books resurfaced in his mind......

In the sky above the Qingyu case, "Kyushu Scenery" flew into the air......

A golden brush flew up, as if controlled by a wonderful hand, and spontaneously wrote on the blank page of "Kyushu Scenery": "The sea of secluded springs, the extreme and the boundless, boundless......"

It seems that it is a novelty that has not been recorded, and it will be automatically recorded in the books of Langhuan Library...... But what's the use of that?

Just when Gu Changan was puzzled, a long splash suddenly appeared outside the port side of the boat, and under the illumination of the wind lamp on the bow of the boat, a huge black shadow could be vaguely seen cruising under the water, quickly passing through the bottom of the boat, and shaking the three people on the boat left and right for a while!

Chen Xuanzong's face was slightly condensed, and his right hand immediately raised the two fingers of the middle finger of the food, and plunged into the water like lightning, and in an instant, he pinched a big insect the size of a baby's fist and looked hideous and ugly out of the water.

Although this big insect is controlled by people, its pair of large claws covered with barbs are still expanding and contracting, making a fierce attack posture towards people.

"It's a corpse!"

Chen Xuanzong's pair of fiery eyes immediately aimed at the stern of the ship, exuding a momentum of not being angry and arrogant, and asked sharply: "Where do you want to take us?" ”
