Chapter 330: Weak Water
The two of them went all the way to the south, flying for a day and a night, and gradually went deep into the hinterland of the southern wilderness.
As the surroundings grew desolate, they were filled with craggy trees, dusty rocks, rotting and bubbling mires, and strange insects and animals.
"That undercover agent said that there is a Styx River in the Hundred Ghost Hall, which is their usual place for refining ghosts, and it is located in the hinterland of the Southern Wilderness!" Chen Xiaosheng said as he flew.
After flying for a while, the whole sky was shrouded in dark clouds as black as ink, and they couldn't distinguish things, so the two had to land on the clouds and walk forward.
The cold air began to gather around, and if you walked a little further, the insects and animals had disappeared unconsciously, and in front of you was an endless mud swamp, not to mention trees, not even a grass.
"We're almost there!" Chen Xiaosheng whispered: "This Styx River leads directly to three thousand weak waters, and it is the most important place for the disciples of the Hundred Ghost Hall to attract ghosts and control souls, maybe they will meet some masters, let's go in and don't make trouble, just do things quietly!"
As he spoke, he took out two sets of black clothes, put on one for himself, and handed one to Fang Feiyang at the same time, and said, "Change into the clothes of the disciples of the Hundred Ghost Hall, so as not to be dazzling!"
Fang Feiyang took it and put it on, and said with a smile: "With these two clothes alone, you can't be seen?"
"Hehe, if you really want to be seen, then let's do it, anyway, it's not a big deal to kill a few hundred ghost hall disciples!"
The two of them changed their clothes, Chen Xiaosheng seemed to have some disguise techniques, helping Fang Feiyang and himself to dress up a little, and then they went forward again, and after a pillar of incense, they suddenly heard the sound of rushing water in their ears, but they couldn't see clearly in the thick fog.
"Who's coming?" Suddenly a voice came from ahead, and two Hundred Ghost Hall disciples emerged from the dense fog. They looked the two of them up and down.
"We are the disciples of Elder Dragon. Come to the River Styx to recruit ghosts!" Chen Xiaosheng replied very familiarly. As he spoke, he took out a swarthy iron plaque and held it in the palm of his hand.
The four elders of the Hundred Ghost Hall - the Charm of the Dragon, among them, the "Dragon" elder is responsible for preaching, and there are the most disciples under the seat, so it is not difficult to pretend.
Sure enough, when they saw the iron token, the two disciples no longer doubted it. One of them waved his hand from the two of them and said, "Go in, it's been quite peaceful in the Styx lately, and you came at the right time!"
The other said: "The three elders of Xiao, Xiao, and Wei are also inside, I heard that they are doing a big thing, you should be careful, don't bump into him!"
Fang Feiyang and Chen Xiaosheng felt a pang in their hearts, the four elders of the Hundred Ghost Hall, except for the charm, the other three were actually all here.
These old monsters are not easy to deal with. What's more, in the River Styx, they are equivalent to occupying the advantage of the home field. If you do, it's a bit of a problem.
However, he still thanked him and walked forward.
A few steps further, the terrain changes sharply, sloping downward like a knife, hundreds of meters deep underground, there is a turbulent and turbulent river, the color is jet black, it looks a little weird.
It turned out that the River Styx was actually underground, and it was still covered by fog, no wonder the two of them couldn't find it when they were so close just now.
When the two of them walked to the river, they found that every few hundred meters along the river, there was a disciple of the Hundred Ghost Hall, standing barefoot in the river Styx, using the spiritual energy in his body to communicate with the ghosts in the river.
Chen Xiaosheng whispered: "This place is located in the lower reaches of the Styx, and it is unlikely that there will be powerful ghosts, so the people who attract ghosts here are all low-level disciples of the Hundred Ghost Sect, let's check it upstream." ”
The two of them walked all the way up the riverbank, and sure enough, after walking a little further, the color of the river became deeper and deeper, and at the same time, there was a pungent fishy smell wafting in the air.
These 3,000 weak waters are the rivers that connect the underworld, and they are known as "goose feathers can't float, and the reed flowers sink at the bottom." "The river melts souls that wander from the underworld, and can be summoned by evil magic.
The further upstream they went, the more likely they were to appear very fierce evil ghosts, which were not something that those low-level disciples could deal with, so gradually, the number of people on the banks of the river began to decrease dramatically, and the two of them often had to walk for a long time before they could see a single figure.
After walking for a while, Chen Xiaosheng looked around, and when he saw that there was no one around, he whispered, "It's almost!"
Fang Feiyang comprehended and helped him look at the wind, while Chen Xiaosheng took out the "Soul Detention Bell" from his arms and immersed it in the river, and suddenly there were fierce waves.
I saw a circle of visible light spread out in all directions, and through that bright light, we could see that there were many faces hidden in the river, showing many expressions such as pain, confusion, loneliness, resentment, and sadness.
Illuminated by that light, many people's faces dissipated like light smoke, but there were also some exceptionally clear faces, attracted by the light, desperately rushed towards the "soul bell"!
Chen Xiaosheng focused on the ghosts attracted by the "Soul Bell", but none of them could get close to the golden bell, and he couldn't help but show a look of regret on his face.
"No, no, these are still too weak, too weak!"
Hearing him say this, Fang Feiyang couldn't help but ask, "What's too weak?"
"That undercover agent told me before he died, there is a corpse warrior who has opened his spiritual sense in this weak water, and he will be attracted by the "Soul Detention Bell", the soul here is still too weak, let's move forward!"
Chen Xiaosheng took out the "Soul Detention Bell" from the River Styx, and the two continued to move forward, every time they walked a few hundred meters, Chen Xiaosheng immersed the golden bell in the water and experimented with it.
This river Styx doesn't know how long it is, it seems to have no end in the distance, meandering out of the endless black mist, and the two of them don't know where they have gone, only that they haven't seen the disciples of the Hundred Ghost Hall by the river for a long time.
Chen Xiaosheng once again immersed the golden bell in the River Styx, and this time after the light spread, it actually caused the vast majority of souls to counterattack, and a few souls were extremely fierce, and they actually attacked within the range of the golden bell's body.
Chen Xiaosheng stood by the river, and whenever a particularly fierce soul appeared, his face would show joy, but then those souls turned into green smoke closer to the Golden Buddha, and the expression on his face also became depressed.
Fang Feiyang stood a little farther away to look out for him, and suddenly felt that something seemed to be moving in the distance, and hurriedly reminded him.
Before the words fell, suddenly from the depths of the three thousand weak waters, there was a strange sound, the sound was slight, as if someone was beating a drum - knock!
Knock, knock......
At first, it was nothing, but when the drum sounded several times in a row, the golden bell in Chen Xiaosheng's hand actually shook underwater, making a sound of "jingle bell".
Knock knock
Jingle jingle bells
Knock knock
Jingle jingle bells
The sound of the drums became clearer and closer, and not far away, in the River Styx, a whirlpool began to appear, slowly enlarged, and in the center of the whirlpool there were sprays, as if something was about to crawl out of the water. (To be continued......)
