Chapter 1: The World After Death
Where is this?
The moment Xuan Ling opened his eyes, this question immediately popped up in his mind. The bluestone avenue, which is more than two meters wide, is like a winding river, stretching to the end of the sky.
What's going on?
Xuanling got up from the ground, but her hands were tied with ropes.
Is this a dream?
She was obviously practicing in the backyard of Dongxuan Palace, why did she suddenly come here alone.
"Ahh
It's not a dream, it's reality.
At the moment when she was using her internal force, Xuan Ling noticed the abnormality of her own qi sea, and her internal force was actually only half left.
Xuan Ling pressed the doubts and incomprehension in his heart, and carefully observed the environment he was in.
Everything here reveals an unusual smell.
The sky is full of white clouds, but their shapes are different, some like grass, some like rabbits, some like dogs, they chase after me as if they are desperate.
The earth is lush with grass and trees, teeth and claws, like ghosts standing silently far and near.
The air was thin and the aura was poor, and Xuanling had never heard of such a place in the five continents.
"Where am I?" Xuan Ling looked around, and there was no one around, only deep grass and trees and a bluestone avenue that didn't know where it led.
Since there is a way, then there will be people, as long as you find people, then the doubts and incomprehensions in your heart can be solved one by one.
Xuanling thought about it while walking briskly along the bluestone avenue, and after a while, a deep voice floated from the front.
Xuanling looked up and saw that it was not a human but a demon.
In front of the gate of a 20-meter-high stone pillar, there stood two big demons with weapons in their hands.
The monster on the left, a minotaur, two meters tall, holding a steel fork in his hand, his eyes were as wide as a pair of copper bells, and he looked at her like a small ant.
"Stop, even the little revenant dares to trespass through the Gate of the Two Realms!" Niu Fu stomped his foot, shaking up a little dust on the ground.
Xuan Ling noticed the huge stone door behind the two of them, this stone door is very special, there is no door leaf, only the door frame. The door frame revealed a faint blue light, and a skull the size of a pumpkin was inlaid in the middle of the door beam, and the dragon and phoenix seal were carved on the door beam.
"Revenant, who is the revenant?" Xuan Ling looked left and right, and said puzzledly: "Call it out and show this girl, this girl has never seen what a ghost looks like when she is so big." ”
"Little girl, you're dead, don't you know?" Yang Xu explained gently, touching his long gray beard.
"Hmph, no wonder in the play, it is said that monsters are treacherous and cunning things, and now when I see them, they really live up to their reputation. ”
"If you don't believe it, forget it, don't bite Lu Dongbin, you don't know the hearts of good people. ”
"Evidence?"
"When people die and become ghosts, ghosts will come to the netherworld. Whoever enters the netherworld, his strength is reduced by half. ”
Xuan Ling was shocked, her internal strength was reduced by half, but she still couldn't believe this person's one-sided words.
"Hmph, tell me, how did I get to this netherworld?"
"You were captured by black and white impermanence!"
"What about black and white impermanence?"
"The two brothers of black and white impermanence, one is good at drinking and the other is lazy, and they must have accidentally lost their souls again. Wait, they will come and arrest you in an hour!"
The doubts in Xuanling's heart were gradually unraveled, but her mood became more and more painful.
She is only sixteen years old, and her goal of making her mother and grandfather live a good life has not yet been achieved.
She was only sixteen years old, and she hadn't even met anyone she liked. The flower of love has withered before it blooms.
She was only sixteen years old, and she still had a lot of food to taste, and the result was ......
Ahh!!!!hh
"Shut up!" the steel fork sank an inch deep into the ground, and Niu Fu's nostrils exhaled air.
"Why are you scaring me? Where did I provoke you? You stupid cow doesn't know how to pity you at all, there must be no girl who likes you. ”
"Hmph, I'm sorry, I've been married a long time ago, and my children are taller than you. ”
She was frightened by Niu Fu like this, and her grief disappeared a lot, and she began to focus on reality to see if she could get other useful information.
Xuan Ling wiped away her tears, pointed to the Two Realms Gate and asked, "Big brother, where does this gate lead?"
Niu Fu was about to answer, but he didn't want to be preempted by Yang Xu, "This door leads to the heavenly realm, why do you still want to go to heaven?"
"No, I want to go home?"
"Of all the ghosts who have entered the Netherworld, who doesn't want to go home, but it's a pity that none of them have ever got their wish?"
"Then what should I do?" Xuanling was very helpless, she felt like a drowning person at the moment, even if it was just a straw in front of her, she had to give it a try.
"You can stay in the Netherworld first, and when your family is gone, you can be reunited. ”
Xuan Ling is unwilling in every way, and in the face of the naked reality, the rest is just powerless.
"However, I am not familiar with this underworld, so where can I go?"
Yang Xu slowly touched his long beard, and seemed to have a plan in his heart. "Don't worry, I've encountered a lot of things like this. Just listen to me, and I promise to make it happen. ”
"What do you want me to do?" Xuan Ling nervously clasped her hands and waited quietly for his answer.
"The proprietress of Huamanlou is my friend, she is just short of people these days, I think it is perfect for you to be a maid. ”
"What is that place in the flower building?" Xuan Ling was suspicious and undecided.
"It's just an ordinary restaurant, I recommend you to go, it's just to make a little money. ”
As soon as Xuanling wanted to say yes, a steel fork shot straight from the opposite side.
She dodged sideways, and a carp rolled over, perfectly dodging the blow.
"Bullnose, why are you crazy, why are you attacking me?" Xuanling had already seen this minotaur unhappy, and he didn't expect him to ruin his own good deeds.
In an instant, Xuanling easily angered him.
Niu Fu's hands were bruised, his eyes were slightly red, and the air flow in his whole body couldn't help but surge, and a roar was like Shura coming into the world.
It was the first time that Xuan Ling had encountered such a strange and powerful creature, her face was sweating profusely, the soles of her feet were smeared with oil, and she fled like a rabbit with a puff of smoke.
Xuan Ling had palpitations, and ran all the way along the bluestone avenue, running a stick of incense, but saw three other dead souls on the road.
Before she could say hello, an iron chain sprang out from behind them, and tied them tightly.
Looking at each other, Xuanling was shocked and frightened, turned around and pulled his legs, and had to run back.
Bai Wuchang couldn't help her, jumped over, and easily caught up.
