Awakening
"Life is not happy, death is also bitter. The world is vast, the world is ups and downs, life is what you want, and death is feared. Honesty is abandoned, and the source is fateful. Time flows eastward, and life and death are providential. ”
Qingyun stepped into the stone gate and saw white bones everywhere, and a black coffin was placed in the center of the white bones in the distance. A thick black aura enveloped the surroundings, and a dark blue fire was placed in the corner of the wall.
There seemed to be a black woman standing behind the coffin, with long hair, unable to see her face clearly, her hands raised above her head, holding a black sun in the center of her hands.
However, the coffin was surrounded by terrifying white skeletons.
Qingyun slowly walked to the coffin, but with every step, Qingyun's body trembled violently, and blood slowly oozed from the clothes on his body, and drops of blood fell to the ground and slowly disappeared.
The skeletons around seemed to be alive, and the pale face of the mysterious woman behind the coffin slowly turned ruddy, and a ghostly fire appeared in the originally empty eyes.
Qingyun frowned slightly, raised his head and slowly looked around, the skeletons around him seemed to feel Qingyun's gaze, and they actually looked at Qingyun neatly.
After Qingyun glanced at it, he silently recited the Buddhist Zen words he had learned in his early years, and continued to walk towards the coffin.
The skeletons around seemed to come to life, and slowly walked forward with the rhythm of Qingyun, but the original blue eyes gradually faded.
Qingyun's body kept oozing blood, and every drop of blood fell and a drop of condensation suspended above Qingyun's head.
Coming to the coffin, Qingyun looked at the sarcophagus in front of him. Imagining the heavenly witch in the old man's mouth, I can't help but sigh that no matter how prosperous you are alive, it is just a simple tomb after death.
Empty and black, it seems to tell the passage of time and the years of all things.
Qingyun raised his hand to caress the coffin in front of him, and the blood on the top of his head slowly melted into the hands of the woman behind the coffin.
The coffin slowly opened, and a beautiful woman appeared in front of Qingyun. In a red dress, with her hands clasped in front of her, the strange thing is that the woman's face is full of the beautiful colors of a young girl, as if the woman is alive.
The woman dragged a small tower in her hand, the small tower had nine floors, each of which was carved with a different pattern. The Ten Halls of Yama vividly depict each layer, but the Wheel King is missing.
Slowly the woman sat up, her eyes gradually opened, but her originally black hair turned white, and the blood cells above were sucked into her mouth.
"Does the little guy have wine, I feel the taste of green bamboo wine in you. The white-haired woman dressed in red slowly sat up, looked at Qingyun outside the coffin and asked lightly.
Qingyun didn't seem to expect the coffin woman to wake up, let alone the woman to wake up and ask for wine. After being slightly surprised, Qingyun reached out and took out a piece of cyan bamboo in his pocket, which was the town's famous green bamboo wine.
As soon as the cyan bamboo knot appeared, it disappeared into Qingyun's hands in an instant. The woman in red raised her hand slightly, and Qingzhu reappeared. The woman holds the wine in her right hand, and with a gentle blow of her red lips, the bamboo is opened.
"Sure enough, it is a good wine born with bamboo, but the year is only eighteen years old, which is a bit short. If it is taken from the 80-year-old vintage, I am afraid that the bamboo will have a faint blood red, and it will be even more refreshing and sweet to drink. The woman in red drank the wine in her hand by herself, and there was no faint comment in her mouth.
As if surprised by the young man's calm and forbearance, the girl in red slightly turned her gaze from the green bamboo in her hand to the young man in Qingxiu.
"Do you know what this door of death means?" After taking a look, the woman in red felt that it was not interesting, the young man was just like his body, always revealing honesty, or stupidity, or insistence in the mouth of the layman.
"I don't know. Qingyun said after thinking slightly.
"Don't you want to guess?" or don't you dare to guess?" said the woman in red, gently shaking her slender jade legs.
"When I came, I seemed to have heard the old man outside say that the door of life is reserved for the people of the Netherworld, and the door of death is reserved for the world. Qingyun replied honestly.
"Oh, you're right. It's just that you know what the difference is?" asked the woman in red as she suddenly stared at Qingyun's eyes.
"One life and one death. After Qingyun finished speaking, he looked up at the woman in red.
"Now that he knows, he jumps into the fire pit. If you're either too stupid, or you know you're going to die, leaving your life to someone else?" said the woman in red casually.
"How did the seniors know?" Qingyun looked at the beautiful woman in red in front of him, without the slightest interest in appreciation, but the word evil and weirdness gradually appeared in his heart.
"This is my place, and nothing can be hidden from me. And those who can open my Netherworld Barrier are either those who have my Netherworld tokens or are stronger than me. Do you think you're the former or the latter?" said the woman in red, disdainfully.
Qingyun was helpless for a while, and when he met a thousand-year-old monster, he was afraid that he would be seen through.
"Now that you know that you will die, for the sake of good wine, what last words do you have to hear. The woman in red tapped lightly on the coffin in front of her, as if she felt a little bored, so she got up and walked towards the outside of the coffin.
"I don't want to die, and I can't die. Qingyun stared vigilantly at the red-clothed woman who was walking towards him, and still replied honestly, or seemingly honestly, silently running the magic knife soul destroying technique everywhere in his body.
"Look at this little black tower in my hand, do you know how he came here?" the woman in red looked at Qingyun who looked like a child in front of her with interest and asked again.
"I don't know. Qingyun still replied honestly, but his whole body gradually tensed, as if the small tower in front of him gave him a feeling of extreme danger.
"This little tower is from the Ghost Domain. I stumbled upon it while walking in the Ghost Domain, and the highest layer of it was sealed by that old thing from the Wheel King. According to the old guys, this ninth layer has the power of rebirth. In order to get it, I was seriously injured by the Wheel King, and I had no choice but to rely on the power of rebirth. condense your soul, but how difficult it is to be reborn, you need nine yin and nine yang, that is, nine pairs of men and women. Now that nine women and eight men have been devoured, you are the last ninth. You don't want to die, do you think I'm willing? Or is there anyone else who will?" The woman in red asked lightly, with a mysterious charm in her voice, and the green clouds in the distance were actually walking towards the woman in red in a daze.
Slowly moving a few steps forward, a look of pain gradually rose on Qingyun's face.
The woman in red in the distance was slightly surprised, and at the same time threw the black tower in her hand towards Qingyun.
The black tower gradually grew larger, and when it came in front of Qingyun, it was enough to crush Qingyun's thin body. At this time, Qingyun woke up completely, his legs were slightly arched, and he looked like he was drawing a knife, and finally let out a soft shout, and a black simple knife seemed to appear in his hands, slashing towards the black tower.
With a bang, Qingyun's figure flew out upside down and fell into the distance. At the same time, the Black Tower also flew upside down, but the Black Tower did not show any signs of damage. Qingyun staggered to his feet, and spit out a mouthful of black blood with a sweet mouth.
"It's kind of interesting, it's just about fighting and killing, I'm afraid there are few people in this world who can compare to me. The woman in red threw the black tower in her hand into the distance, but a blood-red scimitar appeared out of thin air in her hand. I didn't see any movement from the woman in red, but the scimitar disappeared again.
Qingyun in the distance was shocked, ignoring the blood stains on the corners of his mouth, looking at the woman in red in the distance, in a hurry, a black and gold light crawled all over his body, and the body of the Hades King was instantly sacrificed.
There was no sound of wind in the stone gate, but the black scimitar hit Qingyun, Qingyun actually heard the sound of the scimitar cutting through the wind, and the sound was like the master in the temple cutting tofu with a sharp knife.
As soon as the sparks flashed, Qingyun smiled bitterly, although he didn't feel the pain, but Qingyun knew that the hands he resisted were only a little better than tofu, and they were not cut, but the bones were completely broken.
After the scimitar slashed, it flipped ninety degrees and slashed downward, Qingyun was helpless and withdrew. The scimitar slashed into the air, but it was about to land, but the sound of copper coins sounded. It turned out that the scimitar did not split the air, but it hit the copper coin on Qingyun's waist fiercely.
This copper coin was given by Gu Hua, and Qingyun has always carried it with him, only when he came, he used it for money, but it was better than money. Now the ancient copper coin slowly flashed with cyan light, revealing a young man dressed in black in the light. Carrying a spear on his back, his slender body was filled with explosive power.
The young man in black turned around, but his elegant face appeared in front of the two of them, but now the young man in black held the jade seal in his hand, and it was Dugu Ming, the prince of the underworld, not long ago. Dugu Ming frowned slightly and looked at Qingyun and said lightly: "Now I can't protect myself, if my junior brother can insist, maybe there are other people who can rush there." If I can't show up, don't be sad, it's just that we're close to each other. ”
The prince of the Underworld suddenly stumbled, and was slapped hard behind him. Dugu Ming didn't look back, with the spear in his hand, he returned to the horse and withdrew, and a miserable scream came from behind him.
Gradually, the light on the copper coin gradually disappeared, and Qingyun struggled to get up.
The woman in red in the distance was motionless, and suddenly came to Qingyun's side, put her scimitar against Qingyun's neck and asked, "The young man just now was a lonely family? What is your relationship? You'd better not lie to me." ”
Qingyun said helplessly: "He is my senior brother, the prince of the Netherworld, Dugu Ming. ”
The woman in red's body trembled slightly, and the scimitar in her hand disappeared. The woman in red recalled the pagoda in her hand, and her hands kept slapping into the void, and suddenly a scream appeared in the void. Out of thin air, a man's soul appeared, and the woman in red detained her soul to the ninth floor of the Black Tower with both hands. After a while, the figure of the girl in red gradually condensed, turned her head slightly to Qingyun and said, "Little guy, you are blessed with a great life." I'm in a hurry to go back now, so I'll send you the ghost tower, and if you want to get out, use the nether fire in your body to refine it. ”
After speaking, he disappeared without a trace, Qingyun stroked the copper coin in front of him with both hands, exhaled deeply, and bowed to the void to thank him.
