Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 565: Meng Po

Views:

The faceless man's face trembled as he looked at Chen Lin, as if he was sneering, then he turned and walked out of the room, and locked the door again from the outside.

"Princess Chen, right? Seeing that you are still wearing your wedding dress, you must have just entered the palace. No matter what your previous status was, and no matter how much the king likes you, you must obey me when you are here, otherwise I will let you see what means are used!"

The old woman glanced at Chen Lin, and a sinister look appeared in her one eye.

A flash of coldness flashed across Chen Lin's eyes, and then he forced a smile: "Meng Po taught me that I will never cause trouble for you."

After saying that, he took out five magic coins and handed them over.

The old woman's eyes lit up, and she smiled immediately after taking it, nodding her head and saying, "You are a sensible person. Don't worry, although you have lost your position as a concubine, as long as you are sensible, you can still eat and drink well here!"

After saying that, he put away the magic coin.

He waved his hand and said, "Come with me. I'll pick a clean place for you. Don't get your skin rough. You never know when the king might remember you and call you out!"

Chen Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

It turns out that money can make anything possible.

However, the other party still had some concerns, otherwise he would have no choice but to rob him directly, so he only took out five magic coins and did not dare to take too much.

It is also possible that there are some rules and restrictions here that prevent the other party from snatching it.

The old woman turned and walked to the back, and Chen Lin immediately followed.

As the other party walked into a dim corridor, at the end was a pair of stone stairs leading downwards.

As soon as he approached, an extremely cold air appeared, causing Chen Lin's body to stiffen.

The cold air was so terrifying that even Gintama could not fully resist it. If all the soul power was used on this, there would be no energy left to resist the energy erosion of the Phoenix Crown, and he would soon turn into a woman.

He thought about it and tried to mobilize that trace of golden soul.

In an instant, the cold and damp air was dispelled and the body returned to normal.

Chen Lin was overjoyed.

The power of this golden soul is indeed extraordinary!

Unfortunately, there is only a trace of it, and it is quickly exhausted. It takes some time to recover, and during this period one has to endure the pain of the cold.

The old woman walked in front with an expressionless face. When Chen Lin used that trace of golden soul, a strange color suddenly flashed in her one eye.

But he didn't stop and kept walking down the stone steps.

It took a full cup of tea to finally reach the end of the stone steps, and then there was a stone door.

There is a ferocious stone statue on each side of the stone gate, exuding a chilling atmosphere.

These two stone statues made Chen Lin feel that they were not dead objects, but seemed like they could come alive at any time. He took a look and then looked away.

The old woman waved her hand gently and the stone door opened.

An even thicker chilly and gloomy air rushed towards him, mixed with waves of creepy wailing sounds, like a den of ghosts and monsters.

Chen Lin's expression changed slightly. He resisted the urge to attack the old woman and mobilized the power of his golden soul to resist.

The old woman walked into the stone gate first, showing no sign of fear that Chen Lin would escape.

The more this happened, the more Chen Lin dared not to act rashly. He took a deep breath and followed in.

Another corridor.

But this time it is no longer empty. There are stone chambers on both sides of the corridor. The door of each stone chamber is made of a black fence, so you can see everything inside clearly.

"Meng Po, Meng Po, give me a bowl of soup quickly, I can't stand it anymore!"

Just as I reached the first stone chamber, a figure in tattered clothes, pitch black, and with hair like a chicken coop rushed to the door and wailed loudly.

While wailing, his body was twitching as if he was in great pain.

The old woman took a look and sneered, "Little bitch, do you still think you are the noble Concubine Xu? The king hasn't thought of you for three years. Don't dream of getting out. If you want to drink my Mengpo soup, you can, but give me the money!"

Chen Lin's eyes flashed with surprise when he heard this.

This dark guy is actually a concubine

Moreover, the other party has been trapped in this hellhole for three years. What a tremendous amount of pain he must have endured. The fact that he hasn't gone crazy is a sign of his strong will.

And how long will he be trapped here? Is there any way to get out

At this moment, Chen Lin suddenly felt that his previous actions were somewhat ill-considered. He only wanted to do something extraordinary to reduce the baby's favor towards him, so that he would not be the first to spend the wedding night with him and thus delay time.

I didn't expect that I used too much force and ended up in this cold palace.

This Meng Po seems to be extremely powerful. Even though she is the only one in charge of this place, it is unrealistic to escape by force.

His heart grew heavy.

The situation was becoming increasingly difficult, and the hope of getting out alive was very slim.

Although the demon world scene that we entered before was also very strange, it had obvious rules and restrictions. As long as the requirements of the rules were met, we could leave safely.

No matter how dangerous the situation is, there is always a glimmer of hope.

But this scene is a little different. The demon creatures here seem to have independent intelligence, which is normal. There are no obvious rules or restrictions. It is no different from the real scene. At best, it can be regarded as having some underworld style.

If it weren't for the strong atmosphere of the demon world here, he would have suspected that this was not the demon world.

"Meng Po, you also know the status of my family. They won't owe you a little money for the soup. Give me the soup first. When my family comes over, I will definitely return it to you double!"

The woman's pleading voice interrupted Chen Lin's thoughts, and the old woman spat and said, "Don't dream. If your parents cared about you, they would have come here a long time ago. Just accept it if you don't have money!"

After hearing what the old woman said, the woman went completely crazy.

"You old witch, you are so ugly that it makes people sick. You are just jealous of us. You will not die well. Your other eye will be blind sooner or later..."

While cursing, he shook the fence hard.

Chen Lin was shocked to find that this woman suddenly exuded a terrifying aura. Judging from her pressure, her cultivation level was not much inferior to that of an ordinary Void Refiner.

However, the opponent was unable to shake the fence at all, and his aura could not penetrate out of the stone chamber, so he could only attack with words.

When the old woman heard the woman's shouting and cursing, a fierce look appeared on her face. She took out a black whip from somewhere and started whipping the woman in the stone chamber.

The whip was like an illusion, it ignored the fence and hit the woman directly!

The woman immediately fell to the ground, rolled over and twitched, and let out a shrill howl.

"Humph, bitch!"

The old woman snorted coldly, put away the whip, and continued to walk forward.

Chen Lin hurried to follow.

Then he discovered that there were people in the stone chambers on both sides. They all looked miserable. After seeing the old woman, they wailed and begged for a bowl of soup.

But the old woman ignored him completely.

When they were about halfway down the corridor, a "special" woman appeared in a stone chamber on one side.

This woman was very clean, even her clothes were spotless, and she had a white veil on her face, which seemed to be a treasure. Chen Lin tried to detect it with his spiritual sense, but could not penetrate it.

The other party's stone chamber was very clean, and even had simple decoration, with everything including tables, chairs, tableware, beds, etc.

When the other party saw the old woman, he said nothing and directly handed over a magic coin and a clean porcelain bowl.

The old woman didn't say anything. After taking the magic coin, she took out a kettle-like object and poured a bowl of sticky black liquid.

The woman picked up the bowl and frowned, as if she didn't like the color and smell of the liquid, but she still opened her red lips and drank the liquid in one gulp.

The two did not communicate throughout the process. After completing the transaction skillfully, the woman returned to the stone chamber, while the old woman put away the kettle and continued forward with Chen Lin.

Chen Lin felt relieved again.

This 'Meng Po Soup' only costs one magic coin per bowl, which is not too expensive.

Needless to say, the effect of this soup is that it can definitely offset the cold and gloomy air here. His golden soul power can offset some of it. If he buys some Meng Po soup, he can hold on for a long time and slowly find a way to leave.

And if his body in the real world had not been alienated by the evil aura, it should have been taken in by the Ye family. Considering his identity as Ye Luo's "man of destiny", he would not be abandoned even if he did not wake up for a long time.

As for the grass, it cannot be summoned in.

The opponent's strength is of no use here. Staying outside can help him look after the resurrection scroll. If things really reach a desperate point, he will directly detonate his soul and try to resurrect.

In short, you must not be demonized, otherwise your soul will be immortal, but you will be left here like that emperor, and there will be no chance of resurrection.

Just as I was thinking about it, the old woman's voice sounded, "We're here, you stay in this cell!"

Chen Lin put away his distracting thoughts and took a look.

I found that this stone chamber was also very clean, with simple decoration, but it was slightly worse than that of the veiled woman.

It seems that this is distributed according to the amount of "filial piety".

He is not a woman and does not have too many requirements for the environment. However, the benefits of filial piety are not only a good living environment, but also the old woman's attitude is much better, and he will not be targeted specifically.

The old woman walked into the stone chamber first, took out a new quilt and laid it out, and poured him a bowl of "Meng Po Soup", which made Chen Lin feel like a "VIP" and he immediately felt that the five magic coins were worth it.

"Okay, Princess Chen, you can stay here first. I will come down once a day. If you need anything, just tell me when the time comes. As long as the request is not too excessive, I can satisfy it."

The old woman walked out of the stone chamber, locked the fence door, and gave some advice.

Without waiting for Chen Lin to speak, he turned around and left, shaking his hunched body.

Chen Lin kept watching the other person's figure until he disappeared before he retracted his gaze and planned to study the ingredients of Meng Po Soup to see if it had the same effect as the legendary Meng Po Soup, which could make people forget their past.

"Hey, new guy, can you sell me your Meng Po soup?"

Just as he was about to turn around, he saw a disheveled figure appear in the cell opposite, drooling over his Meng Po soup.
