Chapter 116 Road News
In the wilderness where the light of day did not see the light of day, the group walked slowly, it was from Tu Gui City that Jiang Lili and his gang came out, and now they have left Tu Gui City for more than ten days, and they are far from seeing any towns at all. There are only sparse bushes around, and most of them are bare branches. Many shrubs still have thick thorns with long fingers, Cheng Ru didn't pay attention to the day before yesterday, and was stabbed by this shrub on the arm with a bloody wound, at that time I didn't feel the sting, I only felt itchy and unbearable, and after a while, the wound was red and swollen, and there was a slight tendency to spread towards the arm. If Wu Zhou hadn't found it in time, I'm afraid that this arm would have cost me.
At this moment, Cheng Ru looked up at the sky, looking at the round of blood moon in the sky and was bored, "When do you say when will this moon set? Why don't you see it move?
Wu Zhou saw at a glance what Cheng Ru was thinking, "Don't worry, according to the hours of the Yang World, it is noon, and there will be an afternoon when it gets dark!"
Cheng Ru looked shocked, "Really? How do I feel that I have been walking for seven or eight hours in a row? You didn't lie to me, did you? Could it be that the time in this underworld has been confused? There is no such thing as darkness?"
Cheng Ruye's laziness had already attacked, and Jiang Lili shouted: "Shut up, you! Beware of a muddy ghost accidentally burrowing into your stomach along your mouth!"
Cheng Ru was shocked, looked at the several ghosts floating around, and quickly covered his mouth.
"However, this place is indeed a bit abnormal, originally we left Tucaracal City, there were still a lot of little ghosts outside the city, and from time to time I met a few ghost cultivators who were in a hurry. But why did the more you walked, the more remote it became?" Wu Zhou looked left and right, looking puzzled.
"What kind of question are you asking?" Cheng Ru sneered: "The town must be a prosperous place, and the more you go out, the more sparsely populated it will be!"
Wu Zhou shook his head, "No, we didn't go to the messy stone where we lived before, what we did was to go to Zhongfu, the land of Zhongfu is prosperous, how can it be so desolate?
After hearing Wu Zhou's words, Jiang Lili turned his head to look at Wu Zhou, and said in a deep voice: "Are you going the wrong way? But we are indeed following the direction pointed by Na Jiushi! Could it be that he deceived us?"
"No, he shouldn't dare to do this!" Wu Zhou replied: "If you want me to think about it, maybe we went back in a circle without knowing it." Haven't you heard of how you get lost in the desert and in the jungle? But when walking, the left foot may be more than the right foot, and you can't see anything for a short time, and after a long time, you will deviate from your original trajectory, spare a big circle, and finally return to the distance. β
"Is that true that the amplitude of the left foot is greater than that of the right foot?" said Cheng Cheng and gestured, taking half a step with his right foot and a big stride with his left foot, which was quite ridiculous. A few ghost babies who were playing around saw this scene and became interested, and they also followed closely next to Cheng Ruye, limping up after learning Cheng Ruyi's walking posture, and they were very happy.
Ignoring Cheng Ru's interjection, Jiang Lili took out a fist-sized compass from his arms, and when he saw that the pointer was pointing directly in front of him, he replied: "No, what we have been walking in is the direction pointed by this blue pointing needle." β
This compass was taken from Hisaishi's hand and has a colloquial name, called a guiding needle. There are two hands on it, one blue and one black. The blue pointer has been pointing to the direction where the yin qi is heaviest, that is, the center of the underworld, and the black pointer has been pointing to a black mountain range in the extreme south of the underworld, so you can distinguish your approximate location in the underworld from the direction of these two pointers.
Wu Zhou also frowned, "This is strange. β
Limping and walking is really very interesting, Cheng Ru walked in the front, and eight ghost babies followed him in a row, half a step with his right foot, and a big step with his left foot, and he was having a lot of fun. At this time, Cheng Ru turned his head after hearing Wu Zhou's words and said, "There's nothing strange about this! Maybe it's because this place has shallow yin qi? The underworld is so big, is it possible that all places have to follow the rules?"
After not coming up with a better explanation for a while, and without finding any mistakes, Wu Zhou had to nod and said, "If that's the case, then that's fine, it's really a good thing to have fewer ghosts to harass you!"
Three days after leaving the caracal city, everyone encountered a lot of little ghosts blocking the way, although only the ghost mother needed to stand forward and let out a little ghost energy, these little ghosts fled, but after all, they were annoyed by these little ghosts and had a little headache.
A ghost baby suddenly broke away from the main group and plunged headlong into the sand, only to see two legs fluttering outside. Cheng Ru was idle and idle, so he led a group of ghost babies to run over, staring at the ghost baby who got into the sand to see what tricks he was playing!
The ghost baby's body fluttered twice, and it suddenly came out of the sand, dragging out a half-human black-skinned scorpion!
Where could Cheng Ru have thought that this ghost baby would take out such a thing from the sand? Immediately startled, he fell to the ground with his buttocks, terrified.
Although this scorpion has dozens of times the laughter of the ghost baby, the ghost baby is agile and has a lot of strength, and he is afraid that this scorpion is not the opponent of the ghost baby when he fights alone, not to mention that there are seven ghost babies next to him!
I saw these ghost babies rush up and press the scorpion to the ground and beat it violently.
Jiang Lili and the others stopped, looking at the miserable appearance of the scorpion, Wu Zhou smiled and said, "Grandma's, it's really a group of calves!"
The scorpion was still struggling, but after a moment he realized that he was no match for the bandits, so he just lay on the ground and did not move, leaving it to be disposed of.
The ghost baby is not an unreasonable person, and after seeing that the scorpion no longer resisted, he stopped, and gathered around to discuss who wanted the scorpion tail, who wanted the scorpion pincers, and who wanted the carapace on the scorpion as a shield!
As he spoke, he first burrowed into the gravel
The ghost baby's eyes lit up, and he lifted the other ghost babies away, pointed at the scorpion, and then pointed at himself, meaning that the scorpion was his!
The other ghost babies looked at each other, although they had a lot of strength to fight this scorpion, but everyone is a good brother, since you want to eat alone, then it will be good for you.
When the ghost baby saw that the other ghost babies had stopped, he smiled on his face, patted the scorpion on the head, sat on the scorpion's back, and pointed the way.
The scorpion understood the meaning of the ghost baby, and knew that he had escaped with great strength, so he spread his legs and began to run in the wilderness. The black-skinned scorpion mount is not majestic!
The other ghost babies saw that their brother had a precious pet, and their eyes lit up, and they looked at each other again, and ran away, and after searching for a moment in the wilderness, they saw a ghost baby burrowing into the gravel again, and after a while, a black-skinned scorpion was dragged out.
All the ghost babies rushed up, first beat the black-skinned scorpion violently, and then pretended to comfort the scorpion after completely giving up resistance, the method of adding sugar with sticks was untaught!
Everyone is a brother, and those who have mounts naturally do not forget the others, so they saw that this group of ghost babies was like locusts flying in the sky, and they swept through this wilderness, and many insects were unjustifiably affected.
A small beetle can't make a mount, so it kills it directly! A bug with a barbed on its back can't make a mount, so it kills directly, and one person takes off a barb to make a sword. If you run slowly, the insect can't be killed, and you can use this insect to make a demonstration for the mount that has been subdued, if you don't run hard, you will end up like this!
Jiang Lili and Wu Zhou were stunned as much as they could see this scene, and they couldn't help it, Wu Zhou came to the ghost mother's side and asked, "How did you raise this doll?
The ghost mother rolled her eyes at Wu Zhou, and lightly opened her lips, "Get out!"
Wu Zhou walked away.
In a short time, there were eight scorpions, spiders, centipedes, all kinds of things.
These eight ghost babies sat on their own mounts, running wildly in this wilderness, and the noise shook the sky, so lively.
Cheng Ru looked envious, and looked at the blue centipede where a ghost baby sat down and there was still a person sitting on it, so he hurriedly ran up, "Wait, let me sit for a while!"
After running for a long time, he only felt that the centipede was getting farther and farther away from him, and he accidentally tripped over a stone and fell a dog eating!
As soon as he got up from the ground, a ghost baby ran past Cheng Ru is riding a spider, and turned around and grimaced at Cheng Ru is grinning!
Cheng Ru was furious, grabbed a handful of gravel from the ground and threw it at the ghost baby, and scolded, "Dog's white-eyed wolf! Have you forgotten that Lao Tzu just taught you how to walk?
After scolding, he still felt angry, hated and kicked the sand, and scolded the yellow-eyed beast in a low voice!
At this time, the ground suddenly trembled slightly, and Cheng Ru's footsteps were unsteady, and he fell to the ground again. After standing firmly, he looked left and right, thinking that it could be that the dragon had turned over? Then he saw a large sandbag bulging not far ahead, and a huge crab claw stepped out of the sandbag, its armor was as bright as oil, and the barbs were hideous, full of evil spirit!
The sandbag burst open, and out of it jumped a black crab with a full ring laughing, and the two crab claws were particularly majestic!
Cheng Ru's heart tightened, and he staggered and ran behind Jiang Lili to hide!
Jiang Lili and Wu Zhou glanced at each other and asked, "Why did such a thing suddenly jump out?"
Wu Zhou looked at the insects where the ghost baby was sitting, and then looked at the insect corpses on the ground, and replied, "Aren't you here to take revenge?"
The huge sand crab danced with the two crab claws in his hand for a moment, and walked sideways in front of Jiang Lili and the others, and the two erected eyes stared at Jiang Lili and the others viciously, looking like they would not give up!
Jiang Lili glanced up and down at the sand crab and smiled.
Wu Zhou touched his chin, looked at the smooth back armor of the sand crab, and smiled.
Cheng Ru didn't know why, and he also smiled.
The sand crab seemed to be annoyed by the behavior of several people, and raised the two crab claws into the air to show his majesty, and then screamed twice before rushing towards the people.
Jiang Lili didn't move, just looked at the sand crab with a smile.
Just when the sand crab was about to clip off all the people with one pincer, Wu Zhou suddenly conjured up his ghost body and roared at the sand crab!
The sand crab's pincers stopped in mid-air, and his eyes were cloudy.
The ghost mother stepped forward slowly, not so publicly, only slightly exuding a little bit of the ghost aura on her body.
Seeing a trace of fear in the eyes of this sand crab, he subconsciously took two steps back and stopped.
Jiang Lili and the others slowly took a step forward.
The sand crab took two more steps back and stood still. Suddenly, he raised his pincers, pretended to dance for a few minutes, and then quickly retreated backwards!
"Grab it! don't let it run!"
Jiang Lili roared and rushed straight up, Wu Zhou followed closely, and the ghost mother transformed a strand of her hair into a long rope and rolled towards the sand crab!
Cheng Ru was the only one who stayed where he was, dancing and shouting, "Hurry up, it's going to run into the hole!" Oh, Wu Zhou, you eat, you can't even hold a legγγγγγ?! Oh my God, Amitabhaγγγγγ β
γγγγγγ
In the distance, I saw a huge crab crawling rapidly in the wilderness, followed by seven or eight insects of different types, the sand and dust were billowing and majestic!
The back of this sand crab is flat, and I thought that it was extremely light on the top when I looked at this shiny armor
Slippery, but after going up, I found that there are actually a lot of fine bone particles on it, even if I crawl and roll on it, I don't have to worry about whether it will slide down.
After having a mount, I didn't see Cheng Ru complaining, at this time Cheng Ru asked Jiang Lili to take out a set of quilts from the hidden bag, spread the quilt on the back of the sand crab smoothly, and then lay down directly, sighing: "It's still so comfortable, although this sand crab runs quite fast, but this back is inevitably too hard, and my butt hurts!"
Saying that, Cheng Ru asked Jiang Lili to take out some food from the hidden bag, such as some melons, fruits and vegetables picked in the yang world, and some dried meat used as a stomach!
Cheng Ru pinched a watery grape and put it in his mouth, with a happy face, and a good life was nothing more than that.
Maybe it's also boring in his mouth, Wu Zhou didn't know where to take out a plate of brightly colored leaves, took out another pot of wine, took a leaf and put it in his mouth to chew slowly, took a sip of wine again, exhaled, and looked like it must be very comfortable!
Handing the dish of leaves to the ghost mother, the ghost mother hesitated for a moment and then pinched a piece and put it in her mouth, only after chewing a few times, her eyes lit up.
Seeing that the two of them looked like this, they finally couldn't help it, got up from the quilt, walked to Wu Zhou, and stared at the leaf for a moment, "Can you eat this thing?"
"Naturally, I can eat it!" Wu Zhou replied: "If I can't eat it, why should I put it in my mouth?"
Cheng Ru asked again: "Even if you can eat it, can you two taste it?"
Wu Zhou snorted coldly, "You know what a fart! This thing is famous as a hundred flowers and bamboo shoots, but it is γγγγγ I don't know the specifics of this food, but it tastes really good. β
Cheng Ru thought, "Can I eat it?"
Wu Zhou smiled, "You taste?"
"Hehe, then taste it!" Cheng Ru rubbed his palm, took out a bamboo shoot leaf from the plate, and put it in his mouth. At first, he looked puzzled, after chewing for a while, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and then he looked unsatisfied, "This thing, it tastes really good, it's a little like Yangzhou's osmanthus cake, and it's a little like Suzhou's almond cake, and some like the pork belly that Qionghu has eaten!"
Saying that, Cheng Ru pinched another piece and put it in his mouth, "It would be good if I could bring some back to the Yang world, and I would definitely be able to sell it for a big price at that time!"
Wu Zhou smiled, "If you want to eat in the Yangshi, it's simple, just mix some incense ashes with a leaf that can be seen everywhere, put it in the oil pot and fry it for a while, and you can eat it when you get out of the pot!"
Cheng Ru looked incredulous, "Fart!"
"What are you lying about? This is a thing from the underworld, and when you get it to the yang world, it will become a tasteless leaf?"
"But how can I still eat the grapes I brought back from Yangshi?"
"It can go from yang to yin, but it is irreversible. It's exactly the same as turning into a ghost when a person dies, but a ghost dies but can't turn into a human!"
Cheng Ru snorted, obviously not believing Wu Zhou's words.
Wu Zhou didn't bother to say much, he opened the pot of wine and poured himself a cup of Yin Brew, and poured half a cup for the ghost mother. Cheng Ru was itching in his heart, "Give me a little too!"
"Do you want it too?" Wu Zhou took out another cup and filled it for Cheng Ru, "This is just one cup!"
Cheng Ru only agreed in his mouth, and after eating one bite, he said again and again: "Another cup!"
"This is a big drink!"
"Isn't it stingy?"
Wu Zhou couldn't do anything, so he filled it up again. Cheng Ru ate another bite and then said, "Another cup, the last cup!"
"This is the last drink!"
"Okay, yes, you're so annoyingγγγγγ! One more drink, the last one! I'm going to go to bed after eating. β
It didn't take long for Cheng Ru to have eaten the whole pot of Yin Brew, at this time, his face was flushed, his eyes were sloppy, and he put one hand on Wu Zhou's body, eating and laughing like crazy, "Bucktooth Zhou, do you know that you are really... Hiccup, fucking ugly!No wonder I can't find my daughter-in-law!haha!"
"Roll out!" Wu Zhou opened it up, "It's just that you don't have a character, you don't even have any wine, and you're going crazy with alcohol at this time!"
Cheng Ru staggered, put his arm around Jiang Lili's shoulders again, burped, and was full of alcohol, "Jiang Dog, hehe, Jiang Dog! This name is much better than your name!"
Jiang Lili's face was gloomy, and she pushed it away.
Cheng Ru fell to the ground, got up slowly, walked in front of Jiang Lili, and was about to speak before his face suddenly turned red.
Jiang Lili's face changed drastically, "Don't!
"Hmmγγγγγ Wow!" Cheng Ru put it on Jiang Lili's shoulder, spitting out a large stream of filth!
Jiang Lili was annoyed, and after Cheng Ru vomited, he kicked Cheng Ru away, "When you wake up, let's see how Lao Tzu cleans you up!"
Cheng Ru fell to the ground and only giggled.
The ghost mother looked at this scene, and the corners of her mouth hooked a smile, bright and moving.
Cheng Ru got up again, wiped his mouth, walked in front of the ghost mother, and said unashamedly, "Little girl! Blind, I didn't expect you to be a beautiful woman! If it weren't for Wu Zhou... Hmmm!"
"Hey, hey, hey, shut up!" Wu Zhou hurriedly pounced and covered Cheng Ruye's mouth.
The ghost mother shook off Wu Zhou's hand, glared at Wu Zhou with a gloomy face, and then turned her head to Cheng Ru and said, "You go on!"
Cheng Ru smiled, "If it weren't for Wu Zhou... I really didn't notice that you're a beauty... Hehe, he also said that your waist, Yingying shook it... Oh, open-mindedness... β
"Oh, wait, wait, wait, you listen to me! He was drunk and drunk! I really didn't, I really didn't."
