Chapter 219: Whew

But all ghosts, if they want to enter the underworld from the north, they must pass through Luo Yu Mountain. At the entrance of Luo Yu Mountain, I don't know who it is, I chiseled the words "Ghost Gate" on the stone wall with deep strength. Although these three words do not have the immortal plaque on the Taozhi Mountain archway, they seem to be old-fashioned.

Yincang and Jin Hong hid near the entrance of the Luoyu Mountain Cave, and did not rush in, but just carefully observed the ghosts entering and exiting the cave entrance and the ghost generals who patrolled and inspected. For the mortal world, ghost gates such as Taozhi Mountain and Luo Yu Mountain are deserted places recognized in mortal consciousness, but for the netherworld, these Quartet Ghost Gates are the most lively places except for the city gate of Xudu.

"Your Highness, when are we going in?" Jin Hong asked as he stood beside Yincang and lowered his voice.

"Wait a little longer. Yincang said.

"Then we have to ...... Hey, it's so fragrant!" Jin Hong said this, stretched out his nose and sniffed violently in the air, and said infinitely intoxicated: "Your Highness, it's wine." ”

When Yincang heard this, he immediately looked around, but did not find anything abnormal. So, where did the smell of wine come from? He remembered that there was a ghost emperor sitting in this ghost gate, who was addicted to alcohol.

Jin Hong saw that Yincang didn't say a word, and immediately couldn't help but smell a few more sips of mellow wine in the air, and unconsciously, he actually walked in the direction where the aroma of wine wafted from.

"You're going to die!"

Yincang didn't notice Jin Hong's actions at first, and only realized after Jin Hong took a few steps, and hurriedly dragged Jin Hong back.

Jin Hong was grabbed by Yincang and pulled back by the collar, and suddenly a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly shrank beside Yincang. "Your Highness, what kind of powerful spell is this?" The subordinate only sniffed a few sips of wine before a beautiful woman turned into a skeleton spirit grabbed her by the collar and walked forward. The subordinates are really careless. ”

"I'm afraid we have met that Northern Ghost Emperor Yang Yun, who is addicted to alcohol. Yincang shrunk his eyelids, stared vigilantly at the entrance of the cave of Luo Yu Mountain, and said quietly: "Presumably at this time, he should be leading the ghost clan generals to patrol nearby." We must hold our breath and not let him find anything wrong. ”

After hearing this, Jin Hong hurriedly gathered his breath.

The mellow aroma of wine slowly dissipated after rotating around Yincang and Jin Hong several times. Just when Jin Hong thought that the inspection of the ghost clan generals was about to end, unexpectedly, the smell of wine quickly hovered back, and he was reluctant to leave for a long time above Yincang and Jin Hong.

Yincang's purple pupils flashed with scorching eyes, staring at the smell of misty wine that swirled above his head, and said secretly: Shouldn't he be discovered?

After leaning less, the smell of wine hovering above Yincang and Jin Hong's heads slowly disappeared, and it seemed that the ghost clan generals led by Yang Yun had already gone away.

The two demons, Yincang and Jin Hong, were afraid that the smell of wine would come back again, so they didn't dare to move after standing in place for a long time. After a few moments, the two demons each let out a heavy breath.

"Suffocate your subordinates. Jin Hong complained.

"Isn't this Yang Yun one of the Ghost Emperors? Why did he personally lead his troops out to inspect? Could it be that something has happened recently?" Yin Cang looked at the entrance of the cave with a suspicious face, and said to himself.

"Your Highness, are we still going in?" Jin Hong asked.

When Yincang heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Jin Hong, and asked rhetorically: "We came all the way here, is it just to see what Luo Yushan looks like?"

Jin Hong was dumbfounded, and had to lower his head and kick the sand and gravel under his feet.

Yincang once again observed the entrance of the Luoyu Mountain Cave, and saw that the ghosts there were coming and going, bustling, no different from the situation at the gates of the puppet domain. He groaned slightly, condensed two dark cloaks from his palms, and handed one to Jin Hong. "Wearing it can hide the breath on our bodies. ”

Jin Hong took one of the dark cloaks and said happily: "Your Highness is quite well prepared. When I passed through the entrance of the cave for a while, I was interrogated by the generals of the ghost clan, how should my subordinates respond?"

Yin Cang said while tying the brocade belt on the collar of the cloak: "You don't have to say much. ”

Jin Hong hurriedly answered "yes", put on his cloak, and followed Yincang towards the entrance of the Luoyu Mountain cave. Yincang walked all the way, observing the ghosts on the side of the road, and saw that they didn't seem to care about them, so he put his mind at ease.

"Hey, where's Lu Yin? Take it out and take a look. ”

Yincang and Jin Hong were still dozens of steps away from reaching the entrance of the cave, and they could hear the ghosts standing at the entrance of the cave whispering to the ghosts who entered.

"What is Lu Yin, what is Lu Yin?" Jin Hong couldn't help but get nervous when he heard this, and raised his eyes to look at Yincang.

Yincang didn't answer, but just moved his body to the side, letting the ghosts who followed him walk in front of him, and secretly observed how those ghosts handed over the guide to the ghosts? Yincang looked at Shao Tian, seemed to see something inside, and immediately dragged Jin Hong aside.

"Your Highness, you, what are you going to do?" Jin Hong was suddenly dragged by Yincang, and his heart was suddenly startled, and he hurriedly asked.

"Spread your left palm. Yincang said.

"What are you doing?" Jin Hong asked again.

"Bengong asked you to spread your palm, where is so much nonsense?" Yin Cang said impatiently.

"Oh, good. Jin Hong unfolded his left palm and placed it in front of Yincang's eyes, and saw Yincang suddenly gather a purple-red flame on his fingertips, and he was suddenly startled, and wanted to retract his palm, but was firmly held by Yincang. "Your Highness, Your Highness, this fire hurts a lot ......"

"It doesn't hurt, how can we get in?" Yincang said politely. After he finished speaking, he picked up his fingers and burned a flower pattern in Jin Hong's palm.

"This, what kind of flower is this? Hey, why is it a little familiar?" Jin Hong couldn't break free from Yincang's control, so he had to look at the pattern in his palm that was scorched by the purple-red flames. "The most conspicuous mark on the Huangquan Road and on the bank of the Lechuan River! This is the flower of the underworld. ”

"Jiehua, did you give it to you?" Yincang said with a smile.

"This is the most famous thing in the underworld! Jin Hong said: "And we are demons, the demon's demon pattern is in the clavicle fossa, and the demon's demon pattern is on the forehead." Unless it is deliberately obscured, it is easy to see the calendar. ”

"You know now. Yin Cang looked at his masterpiece in Jin Hong's left palm, and put out the purple-red flame with satisfaction.

"Your Highness, won't you get one?" Jin Hong asked.

Yincang listened to Jin Hong's question, so he put his left palm in front of Jin Hong's eyes and shook it, and then put it down. "How?"

"Both of us have red patterns. The subordinates saw some ghosts just now, how could they be white in their palms?" Jin Hong's face was full of doubt.

Yincang said: "Didn't you notice, the people of the ghost clan are red patterns, and the souls of those who have just arrived at Luo Yu Mountain to report are white. Naturally, we can't disguise ourselves as mortal dead souls!"

After listening to Yincang's explanation, Jin Hong asked urgently: "Then can we go in?" Your Highness. ”

Yin Cang bowed his head slightly, and led Jin Hong to stride towards the entrance of the cave. The ghost pawn standing at the entrance of the cave did not suspect it after seeing the road guide shown by Yincang and Jin Hong, and waved his hand to let the two demons enter Luo Yu Mountain smoothly.

Luo Yu Mountain is more than 1,000 blades high, and the underground is round for thousands of miles. In addition to the two ghost emperors living in this mountain palace, there are also Luo Yu for six days. Luo Yu Liutian is actually the secretary of the six palaces under the Ghost Emperor, and he lives in the six cave palaces in the mountains.

Yincang wanted to explore the book of life and death of mortals, so it was inconvenient to stay in Luoyu Mountain, so he immediately took Jin Hong to find the port to cross the river.

Jin Hong wrapped his cloak tightly, followed Yincang's side, and asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, which Hades's palace are we going to now?"

"I heard that the Book of Life and Death is divided into two main volumes of Yin and Yang, and the sub-volume contains all the lives of all the souls who have passed away in the Three Realms. The palace thought that it was enough to look at the sub-volume, and there was no need to alarm the two halls of Hades. Yincang replied in a low voice.

"Meaning, does His Highness know who these dossiers are?" Jin Hong asked tightly.

"The two main scrolls of Yin and Yang are in the hands of the king of the first hall and the king of the tenth hall respectively, and the secondary scroll is in the hands of Meng Poshen under the stage. Yincang said.

"In this way, we have to cross the Lechuan River to the foot of the Forgotten Terrace in order to see the god Meng Po. Jin Hong answered.

Yin Cang did not speak.

Jin Hong pondered beside him for a moment and said, "Your Highness, in fact, my subordinates feel that there is a greater chance of going to the Ten Hall Kings to see the Book of Life and Death. ”

"Why?" Yincang was stunned when he heard this, and looked back at Jin Hong. After a moment, a sudden look appeared on Yincang's face. "You mean to ask Ziyu, the daughter of the Ten Palaces, for help?"

Jin Hong said: "Isn't it okay?"

Yin Cang asked rhetorically: "If this palace owes Ziyu's affection, then what if she asks this palace to help?"

"It's just a favor, help her!" Jin Hong said disapprerovingly.

"What if she said that she asked Bengong to help marry her?" asked Yincang Zhengse.

Jin Hong was slightly stunned and asked cautiously, "Could it be that His Highness doesn't like her?"

When Yincang heard this, he asked rhetorically: "Do you think this palace should like her?"

Jin Hong followed Yincang closely, puzzled: "Why can't Your Highness like her?"

Yincang glared at Jin Hong, didn't say a word, and walked straight in the direction of the port where the boat was parked.

Jin Hong couldn't keep up with Yincang and was left behind. He looked at Yincang's back from afar, and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly realized why his highness was unwilling to say more to him. Isn't he stupid? The underworld and the puppet realm have always been in a state of mutual vigilance, and even the marriage between the people of the two realms has to go through layers of strict approval before it can be made, so how can he still delusionally think that his highness will fall in love with the daughter of the king of the underworld? Besides, his highness is now bent on saving his father and emperor, where does he have the heart to please that female ghost?

Jin Hong finished thinking and hurried to catch up with Yincang.

Half an hour later, Yincang and Jin Hong arrived at the port where the boat docked by the river.

The entire Netherworld, especially the Netherworld, is not just one river, but there are many, but not as famous as the Lethe River. At this time, the river where Yincang and Jin Hong went was called the Po Sa River. There are many Meiluan growing in the Bosa River, which is different from the flowers on the other side, and always has to parasitize on other plants to live, so the water and grass in the river are full of parasitic Meiluan, spreading out the whole river basin, only in the river there is a narrow channel. Moreover, the flowers that bloom in Meiluan are decorated with red gold in the color of Dai, which attracts the attention of spiritual creatures.

Yincang and Jin Hong found a boat, and after giving the captain half of the water, they got on the boat and sat in the cabin.

Jin Hong had never been to the underworld, so he was very curious about everything, and when he saw the flowers in the Bo Sa River, he went to the edge of the boat, wanting to reach out and pick them to find out.

The captain who was holding the boat in front suddenly saw Jin Hong reaching out to grab the maiden in the water, and immediately picked up the boat and gently swept it towards Jin Hong's arm, so frightened that Jin Hong hurriedly withdrew his hand and sat on the board of the boat.

Yincang saw that Jin Hong was frightened by his father-in-law, and hurriedly shouted: "Come back." ”

Jin Hong got up and was about to return to the cabin, when he suddenly heard the captain whisper: "I'm afraid the two of you are not the ghost clan of the underworld!"

"We are the Oni Clan. Jin Hong listened, was slightly stunned and hurriedly retorted. After Jin Hong finished speaking, he also unfolded the pattern on the palm of his left hand to show the captain.

Yincang sat in the cabin, and when he heard the words of the captain, his face turned pale, and his palm secretly gathered his strength.

Seeing this, the captain chuckled silently.

Jin Hong didn't listen to what the captain said, so he approached the captain's side, carefully examined the captain, and found that the captain had white hair and white beard, and was very old. "Old boatman, are you Guigeng?"

The captain chuckled and asked rhetorically. "What year does the old man think this year?"

Jin Hong touched his chin and estimated: "About eighty." ”

The captain shook his head and said with a smile: "One Jiazi in the mortal world is sixty years, and the old man should have more than 100 Jiazi ferrying in the underworld!"

"What?" Jin Hong was shocked when he heard this. More than 100 Jiazi, isn't it more than 6,000 years?

Yincang listened to it in the cabin, pondered a little, and then stepped forward, saluted the captain, and said, "Old boatman, you can be called an old fairy at this age." ”

"Old immortals? There are immortals in this underworld. After hearing this, the captain said with a smile: "The old man once met a fairy when he was ferrying on the Lechuan River. At that time, the old man had just arrived on the Lechuan River to ferry, and he was young!"

Yincang originally wanted to listen to more information, but at this moment, when he saw that his father-in-law took the initiative to speak, he was in the middle of it, and hurriedly asked, "What happened later?"

Jin Hong listened to Yincang's voice, and also looked at the captain with a blank eye.

The captain propped up the boat, stared into the distance with his eyes, and said: "At first, the old man didn't know that it was a god, but later I learned that he was not only an immortal, but also a god with very powerful mana, and he was on an errand under the throne of the Emperor. When he came, he was wearing only a white shirt, thin and tight, and his body was covered with scars, and the white shirt was stained with blood everywhere. At that time, the temperature by the Lechuan River was extremely low, and the cold wind was howling, blowing ghosts and wolves. And he didn't seem to feel any pain or coldness, but just urged the old man to hurry up and send him to the stage of the drunkenness, and give the old man a valuable honorarium. It is precisely because of that honorarium that the old man has been able to live until now. ”

"He should be looking for someone!" Yin Cang said.

"Exactly. He came looking for a woman. The captain recalled: "The woman had long hair and waist-length clothes, and she was also dressed in snow-colored clothes. At that time, I was far away from the river, and I could not see the woman's face clearly. But look at that figure, it's very graceful. ”
