Chapter 34: The Nether Twelve

Xia Furong saw these four words and thought secretly: It turns out that this is the legendary Netherworld Ghost Valley. She also understood that the movement of the branches just now was a Ecstasy Array that used the technique of "Qimen Dunjia"... Xia Furong was glad that she didn't take the liberty of looking for a way out, if she was trapped inside, it would be troublesome. She patted the red horse lightly, and as she walked slowly to the stone where the inscription was written, the branches behind her moved back to their original positions.

The path ahead was not unusual, which made Xia Furong breathe a sigh of relief. Suddenly, there was a cold and shrill laughter: Hahahaha... Hahahaha... The laughter was rhythmless, sometimes high, sometimes low, sometimes far away, sometimes near... Xia Furong couldn't help but get goosebumps, saying that it was laughing but it was like crying. An extremely ugly cry...

Who is it... Who's pretending to be a ghost, and don't show up soon... It's not so easy to scare this girl, Xia Furong said to the erratic crying and laughing around her.

She used her sense of hearing to distinguish the location of the person who was crying and laughing, but it was so strange that Xia Furong originally thought that the sound of crying and laughing around her was just the echo of the other party, and when she listened carefully, it seemed like there were people laughing all around... Hahahaha... Xia Furong felt a little hairy in her heart, although she was very bold, but the little girl would always be afraid of demons and monsters, especially this Netherworld Ghost Valley was rumored to be as terrifying as hell on earth in the legends of the rivers and lakes...

Xia Furong said boldly: I'm not afraid that you are humans or ghosts...

The cold crying and laughter did not end because of Xia Furong's warning, just when Xia Furong was sitting on horseback and was at a loss, eleven people in strange costumes appeared on the tall branches on both sides of the path, and it seemed that they had done a good job... Six on the left and five on the right. Their faces were covered with strangely colored oil, and they all had their heads and eyes, staring directly at Xia Furong on horseback, and Duan Heyu, who was still unconscious in her arms.

I saw eleven people on the tree, not like people and ghosts, they were not like ghosts, they were holding the trunk of the tree in one hand, but in the other hand there was an iron hook, and the hook was connected with a slender iron chain about three feet long, which must have been their weapon. As Xia Furong panicked, a figure flashed in front of her eyes, dressed and the people on the tree, the only difference was that he was dressed in black, like a grim reaper. His eyes were full of sneers at Xia Furong, and he said something equally cold: Isn't the girl afraid?

Xia Furong replied: Don't you know that people are scared to death... What's more, it is the "dignity" of the twelve of you who are not human or ghost... She deliberately lengthened the sound of the word respect, but in fact ridiculed them for their ugly appearance.

Xia Furong saw these twelve people and thought to herself: Fortunately, in reality, if you dream at night, you must be scared awake... She didn't feel like she was in the Netherworld Valley, but in the Netherworld... These twelve people make people shudder in front of people, and their whole body is hairy, and without a fight is enough to make the opponent lose half of it first.

The man in black in front of Xia Furong said coldly: I didn't expect you to be able to avoid the five-color miasma and come to the "Netherworld Ghost Valley" The words were full of surprise, just because Xia Furong's age made him feel incredible...

Xia Furong said: Senior, junior is this highly poisonous friend who came to ask for divine healing.

The man in black was about to let out a terrible and piercing laugh just now: There is no miracle doctor you are looking for here. Do you know what this road is called?

Xia Furong was silent, her eyes staring at the man in black waiting for his answer...

The man in black: This road is called "Huangquan Road" and then sneered: Haven't you heard that once you enter Huangquan, there is no way back, the soul envoy, the twelve heavenly branches...

Xia Furong said: It turned out to be the rumored twelve soul messengers in the rivers and lakes, and he hugged his fists and saluted after a long time of admiring the name.

The man in black sneered and said: What has been looking up for a long time... You should know that there is no need to be polite in the Valley of the Netherworld, because no matter how good you say, you will die here. There are only dead people here, no living people ... Don't think that you can underestimate the Netherworld Ghost Valley if you escape the five-colored miasma, you will definitely die in Huangquan today.

The soul envoys on both sides of the tree fell one after another, and three people each from the front, back, left and right surrounded Xia Furong. And at this moment, Xia Furong on horseback is already physically exhausted, if she still has to fight, she will vomit blood and die, she has forcibly rushed open the acupoint because of saving Duan Heyu, and the meridians of her body have been seriously traumatized before she has time to breathe, and it is really difficult to fight with people at this time...

So Xia Furong said: Your predecessors are also some famous in the rivers and lakes, why do you want to bully an injured girl's family together today, aren't you afraid of being laughed at by the people on the rivers and lakes?

The man in black was obviously the leader among them, and when he saw Xia Furong using the justice of the rivers and lakes to suppress them like this, he was not angry and straightened the hair that blocked his vision with his hand, and sneered: Don't use the agitation method to try to persuade us not to do anything to you, let me tell you little girl, whether it is facing one person or a hundred people in the Netherworld Ghost Valley and in the rivers and lakes, it is twelve of us who go together.
