Chapter Seventy-Six: Impermanence is also lost
Looking closely at the words on the sign, the sign in the hand of the white clothes reads "You are coming", and the sign in the hands of the black clothes reads "Catching you".
Zhou Kang said, "No, it's them. ”
Huaizhong also realized: "Big brother, these two people are white impermanence and black impermanence. ”
The two men in black and white nodded their heads and said, "You guessed it right, it's us." ”
These two people are none other than white impermanence and black impermanence.
Bai Wuchang's name is Xie Bi'an, who is known as the Seventh Master, and Black Impermanence is named Fan Wusuo, who is known as the Eighth Master. According to legend, Xie Bi'an and Fan Wusu are brothers who have been friends since childhood, and they are like brothers. One day, the two walked together under the Nantai Bridge, when it was going to rain, the seventh master Xie Bi'an asked the eighth master Fan Wusu to wait for a while, and he went home to get an umbrella.
Unexpectedly, when the seventh master Xie Bi'an left, the heavy rain poured down, the river rose sharply, the eighth master Fan was unwilling to break the appointment, and waited there, but he didn't expect to be drowned in the water, not long after, the seventh master Xie Bi'an took the umbrella and came back, the eighth master had disappeared, leaving only a shoe, the seventh master Xie Bi'an was in pain, and he was hanged on the bridge pillar at that time, which is why he often had to stick out his long tongue in the future.
After the death of the seventh master Xie Bi'an and the eighth master Fan Wusuo, their faith was deeply known to the Lord of Yama, and the Lord of Yama ordered the two of them to be the head in front of the City God, specifically responsible for catching the outlaws, and later promoted them to be directly used as the soul messengers of the underworld, and when mortals died, they had to be taken by them to the Senluo Hall of the underworld to report to the Lord of Yama.
When Han Jiangliu and the four of them saw the black impermanence and the white impermanence, their hearts immediately turned on the drum, this is not a good thing, are the four of us going to die soon?
Han Jiangliu asked, "Two ghost envoys, is our Yang Shou exhausted?"
Black Impermanence and White Impermanence glanced at each other, and Bai Impermanence smiled at Han Jiangliu and said, "How many of you, what are your names?"
Han Jiangliu was just about to answer, Zhou Kang hurriedly pulled Han Jiangliu's sleeve and signaled him not to say it, Zhou Kang shouted loudly: "Let's go!"
The four of them drove the three divine beasts, exerting all their strength, and ran into the distance, hoping to get as far away from black and white impermanence as possible, and it was best to never see the faces of those two soul hookers.
Zhou Kang said: "The two of them don't even know our names, so it can be seen that they didn't catch us, they must just be passing by, let's not trouble them, let's go!"
Jing Xiaoxian said, "But who are they going to catch? They look very tired." ”
Zhou Kang said, "No matter how much time they have to care about that, they can catch whoever they want, as long as they don't catch us." ”
In the blink of an eye, the four people and the three divine beasts had already run far away.
Zhou Kang said: "We should be safe this time. ”
But when a few people looked back, they found that black impermanence and white impermanence had always followed each other, and they were only about a foot apart.
Zhou Kang said: "Two brothers, what are you doing with us, we are still young, and our longevity is not over, so it's not time to deal with you yet!"
Jing Xiaoxian also said: "Yes, yes, two impermanent brothers, you go and get busy! We won't bother you." ”
Huaizhong and Han Jiangliu each have their own divine swords, the Heavenly Sword and the Diguang Sword, under the illumination of the desert sun, against the backdrop of a piece of yellow sand, shining and eye-catching.
The two of them pondered and prepared to fight, although they were not expected to be the opponents of the two ghost envoys of black and white impermanence, but they also had to fight with all their might.
Unexpectedly, the two of them didn't mean to fight, so they just heard Hei Wuchang ask: "How many of you guys, do you see an old Taoist priest?"
"What old Taoist, we didn't see it. Jing Xiaoxian replied first.
The rest of the people also replied: "Yes, we didn't see the Taoist priest, we have been walking for a few days, and we have been walking around this big desert, and we can't even see a single figure, let alone a Taoist priest." ”
Black and white impermanence muttered to himself: "Strange, where can he go!"
At this time, Bai Wuchang suddenly had a strange smile on his face, and said: "Strange to say, is one of you a Taoist priest, is he who has become your appearance, and wants to deceive the eyes of our two brothers, right?"
Zhou Kang said: "Two ghost envoys, don't make trouble, hurry up and get down to business." ”
Hei Wuchang said with a straight face: "We didn't make trouble, there is an old Taoist priest, named Zhang Dancheng, who was originally Yangshou, but he insisted on refusing to be detained, and he also played hide and seek with our two brothers, hiding in this big desert, so that our two brothers are easy to find, and they are not thirsty to death first." ”
Jing Xiaoxian couldn't help asking, "You were already dead, how can you still be dying of thirst?
Black and white impermanence did not answer her words.
Hei Wuchang said: "The two of us looked for him for three days and three nights, he appeared several times, and disappeared several times, and the dragon never saw the end of the dragon, which was too bad for us." ”
White impermanence looks at black impermanence, which means that you should not leak too much, and the more you leak, the more you will lose face.
Zhou Kang said: "Since this is the case, then you won't ask for additional manpower like Lord Yan?"
Bai Wuchang said: "Send more people? That's not okay, this kind of thankless work, no one wants to hold it, and the two of us want to work for a few more years and then resign." ”
Zhou Kang said: "If the two of you resign, then there will be no dead people in the world." ”
Bai Wuchang said: "We asked Lord Yama to raise his salary, but he never raised it, there is really no way, in fact, I hope that there are no dead people in the world, so that our work can be easier." ”
Hei Wuchang said: "But it's really not easy at all now, let's take this old Taoist priest as an example, relying on his own mana, he doesn't take the two of us brothers in his eyes at all, and he dares to laugh at us, it's really angry." ”
The matter of black and white impermanence arresting the old Taoist priest Zhang Dancheng had nothing to do with Han Jiangliu and a few others, and several people relaxed their vigilance.
Han Jiangliu stepped forward and saluted, and asked them: "Then may I ask the two envoys, how should we get out of this great desert, we have been lost here, we have not eaten for several days and nights, we are hungry and thirsty, if we continue like this, I am afraid that we will really have to bother the two envoys to take us to the palace of Hades." ”
Bai Wuchang said: "You don't have to go to the Hades Palace, your lifespan has not yet arrived, as for how to get out of the desert, our brothers and sisters can't figure it out, in the future, we still have to catch the old Taoist priest Zhang Dancheng and ask him about the way out of the desert." ”
Hei Wuchang nodded: "Well, that's true, including the four of you waiting here, wait for my Hei Wuchang and Bai Wuchang brothers to arrest Zhang Dancheng back and figure out the road before telling you." ”
Han Jiangliu said: "So, thank you." ”
Jing Xiaoxian said, "But how long are we going to wait here?"
Bai Wuchang said: "Usually we are very efficient, but this time we have encountered trouble, and we don't know when we will be able to finish it." ”
Zhou Kang said: "If we can't finish it in three or two days, then we are really going to die here." ”
Although Hei Wuchang often has a bitter face, he seems to be more real than Bai Wuchang, he said: "Why don't you four follow the two of us, and when you catch Zhang Dancheng, you will be able to know the way out of the desert for the first time." ”
At present, it seems that there is only one way, but walking with black and white impermanence, this feeling is probably not very good, but there is really no other way, Han Jiangliu and the other four people had to obediently follow behind the two ghost envoys, relatively speaking, Han Jiangliu and Huaizhong were more vigilant, they refused to say a word, and always held the sword in their hands, just in case there was an unexpected situation, so that they could deal with it in time.
Zhou Kang and Jing Xiaoxian were more relaxed, and even joked with the two ghost envoys of black and white impermanence from time to time. Bai Wuchang often has a smile on his face, but he is not good at talking, although Hei Wuchang does not smile, but he likes to chat about some idle days, he talks to Jing Xiaoxian, it seems to be very speculative, sometimes Jing Xiaoxian laughs, I really can't figure out what is funny about what Hei Wuchang said.
On the surface, it was Han Jiangliu and the four of them who followed the black and white impermanence forward, but the black and white impermanence was also a blind man touching the elephant, and the two of them were also lost.
After walking for another four or five hours, the sky was getting dark, the stars came out, and I couldn't see the road clearly at night, but the biggest advantage was that the climate was cooler and not so hot, and the bodies of several people became very comfortable. If you can drink a little more water at this time, it will be perfect.
Jing Xiaoxian said: "How far is it to see Zhang Dancheng, if you go on like this, you will really die." ”
Bai Wuchang often had a smile on his face, but laughing was really worse than crying, and he said, "Don't worry, there will always be a day when you see it." ”
"Aren't you two thirsty?" asked Jing Xiaoxian.
"When I came, I had already drunk enough water, the water of Lethe, one bowl of top three bowls, and after drinking it, I didn't feel thirsty for a year. ”
Jing Xiaoxian was curious: "It's so amazing, I want to drink it too." ”
Hei Wuchang said with a straight face: "Girl, the water of Lethe River is not to be drunk casually, only the dying have the opportunity to drink it when they cross the Naihe Bridge. ”
Jing Xiaoxian stuck out her tongue, "I see, then I still don't drink it, I don't want to drink it for the rest of my life." ”
After walking for a while, the stars in the sky shifted around, and the figures of the six people on the ground were scattered.
Zhou Kang saw a footprint on the ground, and said exaltedly: "Found it, we found it, there are footprints here, it should be Zhang Dancheng's!"
Everyone, including black and white impermanence, looked in the direction pointed by Zhou Kang, and sure enough, they found a footprint, which stretched forward densely.
Huaizhong shook his head, and Han Jiangliu also shook his head.
The people had already found out, and said, "It's not a man's footprint, but—" They felt frightened, because this footprint was left by themselves.
