Chapter Twenty-Three: The Cave Immortal Grass Shines on the Nine Shades

Everyone got on the Biluo Huangquan Boat together, had a bird's-eye view of the surroundings, and suddenly felt a broad vision. Xuan Ming looked into the lake, but saw that the abyss was vast, as if she was looking at the desolate land on the Suspicious Island, if she didn't use her magical powers, she couldn't see the edge at all.

The Biluo Huangquan Boat moved forward slowly, and after a short time, I saw the clouds and mist steaming, and the surrounding water vapor was dense, and there was a trance everywhere. When he looked around, he found that there was water everywhere, and the mist connected the abyss with the sky, like a thin veil, and even the blue sky and white clouds could not be seen. Moreover, the water quality of the abyss is peculiar, there are not even swimming fish and shrimp, and the surrounding silence is incomparable, and the needle drop can be heard.

The beast shape of Tianwu is very strange, it is a human face and a tiger body, the whole body is green and yellow, eight heads and eight faces, eight feet and eight tails. The embodied human body is handsome and mighty, and his actions are as chic as the wind, and at the same time he is also a person who likes to move and not like to be quiet. I don't know how long it has been, but the surrounding environment has not changed in the slightest, and the other three people are all sitting quietly and pranayama, without saying a word, like a sculpture, he can't help but feel a little bored in his heart, so he can't help but ask Houtu: "Houtu girl, now you are in the underworld?"

"Not yet. Houtu opened his eyes, just glanced at them and shook his head, and then looked carefully before standing up. "Still, it's coming soon. ”

Hearing this, Xuan Ming and Tizi, who were on the side, immediately woke up from their meditation. They looked forward with Tianwu, but they only felt that it was the same as before, and there was fog all around, and they couldn't see how it was "fast" at all.

When Houtu saw that they were puzzled, he took out a small grass from his sleeve, which naturally emitted light, which was very strange. Without waiting for the three of them to ask, she explained: "This fairy grass was picked up by me when I went to Zhong Volcano, and it is called the Cave Grass, also known as the Zhao Charm Grass. Its rhizome is bright, the night is like a golden lamp, and the broken branches are a torch, which can illuminate the shape of ghosts. ”

"To be able to see the form of ghosts is to illuminate the ghosts. Then the cave refers to ······" Speaking of this, Tianwu paused, and stood quietly in place, thoughtful.

Tiz was straightforward, and immediately continued: "You can see the place of the netherworld!"

"To speak of insight is to exaggerate. But it does, and can lead the way to the underworld. Hou Tu pointed his hand, and the cave grass flew into a glass lamp hanging on the bow of the ship. The lights on the Biluo Huangquan boat are bright, only this lamp is dim, and now the cave grass enters, and immediately emits a dazzling golden light, illuminating the surroundings transparently, and it seems that even the dense fog has become slightly thinner. "Look. ”

Xuan Ming looked around, but still didn't find anything, and he didn't know what Houtu wanted them to see. As soon as he was about to ask a question, he felt a jolt in the hull of the ship, as if it had been hit by a huge wave, and it was about to fly off the water. The three of them subconsciously stretched out their fingers, but they didn't know that Houtu reacted faster than them, their eyes suddenly froze, and Biluo Huangquanzhou suddenly settled down. At this time, the fingers of Xuan Ming and the others were only halfway out.

The four of them regained their footing, but found that they didn't know when, Biluo Huangquanzhou had left the abyss, but was driving on a river, but at this time it was going against the current, so it was bumpy just now. Looking up, the surface of the abyss was overhead, but the place was empty, and there was not a drop of water around him, so it was obviously not under the abyss.

Xuan Ming was puzzled, and looked under the boat again, but saw that the river water was incomparably clear, but at this time it became pitch black, and after concentrating on it and looking at it again, it became clear and transparent. Looking around, the sky was a yellow color, like a scene at dusk, like smoke and dust, and there was silence around, which seemed very depressing, and she hurriedly looked at the back soil: "Sister, what's going on here?"

Houtu replied lightly: "This is the Flood Underworld, and this river is the Yellow Spring Forgotten River. ”

In the past, the great god Pangu opened the heavens and the earth, and the yang and Qing ascended into the heavenly realm, and the yin turbidity sank into the underworld, and the yin and yang qi merged again, and then manifested into the earth realm. It's just that the heavenly realm is clear, and the underworld is turbid, so the fairies are very rare, and there is no one in the heavenly realm, and although the underworld is a little better, there is only one, which is not as prosperous as the earthly realm. Therefore, the earth realm should be the name of the underworld, but because it is too sparsely populated, it is called the underworld, which means darkness. The place where the desolate beings live is called the Earth Realm, which is opposite to the Heavenly Realm.

The heavenly realm is divided into nine heavens and thirty-three days, and the underworld is also divided into nine bases, which are the first base of color moist land, the second base of rigid color land, the third base of stone grease color land, the fourth base of moist land, the fifth base of golden millet land, the sixth base of diamond iron land, the seventh base of water system land, the eighth base of the Great Wind field, and the ninth base of Dongyuan Colorless Rigid Land. Each base is divided into four areas, which is nine bases and thirty-six soils. Jiuxiao is nine layers, and Jiulei is also nine layers, but each layer is not directly connected to each other, but is similar to the situation of the Three Realms of the Flood and Desolation.

As soon as the local dialect came out, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and he looked at Huang Quan and was silent, frowning slightly and not knowing what he was thinking. When Xuan Ming heard this, he naturally knew in his heart that this river that changes with his heart is the characteristic of Jichuan and Lechuan. She turned her head and saw that Houtu's face was different, so she didn't ask much, just sat quietly on the boat, watching the surrounding scenery, and at the same time looking for something special.

It turns out that the Jichuan River enters the underworld from the abyss as the Lethe River, and from the abyss to the Heavenly Realm Jichuan, so if you go from the abyss to the underworld, it is naturally downstream. But all the way they came, they were all sailing against the current, and it was obvious that there was a big change in Huangquan. However, this underworld, Houtu is also the first time to come, and I really don't know much about this place, and I can only manipulate the Biluo Huangquan Boat all the way forward.

But I saw that the mountains and rocks in the underworld were strange, the shape was convex and concave, and the potential was more rugged. It is as steep as Shuling, as high as Luyan. It is not a famous mountain in the yang world, and it is a dangerous place in the underworld. Thorn bushes, stone cliffs phosphorus, cloudy wind, black fog. There is no scenery at one look, and there is no scenery on the left and right. There are mountains and peaks, there are ridges and holes, but the mountains do not grow grass, the peaks do not insert the sky, the mountains do not go to guests, and the caves do not accept clouds. There are many fairies in the strange wilderness, but no one is willing to come to live here.

I don't know how long I walked, I saw a little blue light in front of me, and when I looked carefully, it turned out to be a painting boat, which was the same as this blue yellow spring boat. However, on the bow of the boat, it is not a glass lamp or a cave grass, but a gorgeous chaotic green lotus, and there is a pearl on the green lotus, which exudes a soft blue light, illuminating the surroundings transparently.

When Houtu and Xuanming saw the boat, they immediately walked to the bow of the boat and bowed their hands to the people who came: "I have seen your brothers, are you all okay?"

"The two sisters are thoughtful, and we will naturally have a smooth journey!" The four people on the opposite boat stepped into the air, and their bodies flashed and came to the Biluo Huangquan boat.

Dijiang obtained the soil used by Houtu to transmit messages from Xuanming, and immediately rushed to the East China Sea to return to the ruins, and joined Jumang, Gonggong and Zhurong on the bank of the heavenly abyss. So according to the guidance of Houtu, they turned the soil into a blue yellow spring boat, and Jumang hung the lotus lantern made of chaos blue lotus and chaos beads on the bow of the ship, guiding the way to the underworld. Dijiang was a little faster than Xuan Ming, but he waited and waited before leaving, so the two sides set off at the same time, and now they are just halfway through each line, converging in the middle of Lechuan.

At that time, Dijiang returned the Biluo Huangquan Boat into resting soil and returned it to Houtu, while Jumang hung the lotus lantern at the end of Houtu's painting boat. Everyone communicated with each other, but they still got nothing, and they didn't know what had happened to Lethe.

At that moment, I heard someone composing a song.
