Chapter 280: Gathering
Netherworld.
The ghosts have been trapped in the center of hell for nearly half a month, and during this half month, Cui Jue and others have tried all kinds of methods, but they still have not succeeded in breaking through the "protective layer" guarding the periphery, and no one can escape, so they can only continue to stay where they are and sit in the well and watch the sky.
It's just that at this juncture, even if they escape from this place, it seems that they can only be a natural egg, as long as the action of the gods has not been completely broken, their entire secluded capital is still in a dire situation, and there is no way to save themselves.
As for the signal for help, although it has been sent to the Ten Hall Yama Kings, and then sent by the Ten Hall Yama Kings to the hinterland of the Hidden Capital, but the mountains are high and the waters are long, even the Netherworld Ghost Emperor who has the ability to help is out of reach at the moment, and he can only sigh for a while.
And when Jiang Yi and the others rushed to the eighteenth layer of hell through the magic weapon of the sun candle "Shifting Shapes and Shadows", all they saw was this bleak scene.
That night, in the abode of Jizo Bodhisattva, Di Ting, who was originally quite stable, suddenly raised his head vigilantly.
Immediately afterwards, with a loud "bang" that sounded out of thin air in the air, the dwelling here was directly filled with the huge and fierce "snowmen". Fortunately, there is no partition in the room here, and the clear height will be enough for the "snowman" to stand, otherwise, the moment this group of people appears, the Bodhisattva's abode will be completely squeezed out by these hundred or so people.
After a while, the voice of Jizo Bodhisattva sounded in the center of the room, "I didn't expect you to find another helper." That's great, we're short of people here, so let's solve the so-called urgent need first, which can't directly save time for our plan, but as long as it can help us clear some obstacles, that's good. ”
"There's no time to be polite right now, so please don't be weird."
Xiao Hei replied, "Where is the Bodhisattva, these are what we should do. Now that time is pressing, please ask the Bodhisattva to hurry up and make the decision to assign 'tasks' to those of us. In addition, I don't know where Yu Wei is now? When will we be able to meet? ”
"It's coming, it's coming." Jizo Bodhisattva said with a smile. "There should be a strong man named the third child here."
"Bodhisattva, I'm here." The third child, who was crowded in a corner of the room by a group of snowmen, really had no way to come forward to salute immediately, so he could only respond loudly in the "snowman" group.
Jizo Bodhisattva then instructed, "Please take this group of 'snowmen' to Cui Jue to report first, he is now worrying about how to break through the 'encirclement' set up for us when the god is leaving, he will be happy if you bring these sturdy helpers to help him in his actions." ”
"Yes." The third child received the order, so he had to hurry up and communicate with the "snowmen", and then it took a while to successfully invite all the "snowmen" present out of the residence of Jizo Bodhisattva.
As for the green 'jade' who followed the third child to hell in violation of the order, in order to avoid being seen by the Jizo Bodhisattva, or perhaps for some other reason, in short, when the hundred or so huge "snowmen" left one after another, she also 'mixed' among those "snowmen", followed the footsteps of the third child, and successfully "mixed" out again.
After the "snowmen" left, the whole dwelling was empty and cold again. It's just that the collapsed candlesticks are still reminding a few people in the room that such a cold and lonely place has also been "lively", but that kind of "lively" is too superficial.
The Jizo Bodhisattva subjectively ignored the mess in this room, and only turned his head directly to Xiao Hei and said, "Xiao Hei, the support from the hinterland of the Youdu is constantly coming, I want you to pick them up, and by the way, I will also give them a 'popularization' of the current situation." ”
"Why am I going to do something like this?" Faced with the arrangement of the Jizo Bodhisattva, Xiao Hei was inevitably a little dissatisfied, "A simple thing like receiving a guide, you can send anyone to do it, why do you have to recognize me?" Besides, I wasn't one of your subordinates here, and the reason why I came to help was just for Yu Wei's sake, and now, you want me to do this? I don't care, anyway, no matter what, I must be with Yuwei. ”
In the face of Xiao Hei's opposition, Jizo Bodhisattva seemed to have expected it, so he didn't show too many emotional 'waves' on his face, but just explained lightly, "As a fox demon, you are good at transfiguration, and at the same time, you act very quickly, which is suitable for escaping in this current besieged situation." ”
"The end of this catastrophe requires all kinds of people from all over the hidden capital to be able to unite and show their strengths, so you don't want to make trouble at such a critical moment, and obediently obey the organizational arrangements, isn't it very good."
"I don't care, anyway, I only listen to Yu Wei, unless she tells me in person that I have to do this, otherwise it's useless for others to say anything." Xiao Hei You said toughly.
"What I mean is what Yuwei means." Jizo Bodhisattva raised a few syllables without 'revealing' traces, and there was a hint of warning in his tone.
"I see." Xiao Hei was obviously stunned, and then he could only leave here with regret.
At this time, in addition to the Listening Beast, there were only two people left in the entire room, Jiang Yi and Jizo Bodhisattva.
"Jiang Yi, among these people, your task is the most arduous and the most difficult to complete." I don't know if it's Jiang Yi's illusion, he always feels that the voice of Jizo Bodhisattva is full of helplessness, such a small perception makes Jiang Yi's heart that has been mentioned all the way more to his throat.
"Yes." Jiang Yibi bowed his head respectfully.
"Regarding the current situation, I guess Xiao Hei and the two have already explained it to you in detail when they came, and I won't repeat it anymore." Jizo Bodhisattva then said, "There is one thing that I hope you can understand very well, even with the help of the 'snowman', with our current strength, it is really not enough to compete with the god and his army, so before the most critical day comes, we must do our best to gather the strength of all parts, even if those forces have long been lost." ”
Regarding the words of the Dizang Bodhisattva, Jiang Yi couldn't help but be a little confused, what Xiao Hei did just now, isn't that exactly what he did, so what else did he need to do?
So, Jiang Yi had to ask aloud, "Although I am not talented, and I am only a ghost from the Yang Realm, I have no ability, but I am also willing to contribute my own strength to the rise and fall of the entire Hidden Capital." I just don't know what the Bodhisattva is referring to. ”
