Magu explained: "This flower is called Cone Blood Flower, and it can be used to extract blood from the body of a person or animal. Don't worry, Brother Yang, this flower will not cause any harm to your body."
How can I know whether it will cause any harm? I'm afraid I'll have to try it to find out.
I lay on the bed and nodded, "Well, since you, Master Magu, have said that there is no problem, I, Yang Tianyi, will naturally trust you."
A smile appeared on Magu's face.
The little fox Xiang He curled her lips, rolled her eyes at me, and said disdainfully: "You only know how to please my mother, and you like to be afraid of horses! I can see that you are a flatterer."
I felt a little embarrassed by what the little fox Xianghe said.
Magu turned her head and shouted, "Okay, Xianghe, please stand aside first. I will draw blood for Brother Yang now. Please don't disturb us."
Xiang He was a little unhappy. She lowered her head and stood aside.
Seeing her being humiliated, I felt a little gloating.
It was at this time that Magu said, "Then little brother Yang, I'm going to start!"
Before I could react, Magu pressed the stem of the "Cone Blood Flower" on my heart.
Then the tip of the cone-blood flower pierced my heart. A piercing pain instantly spread through my body.
A layer of sweat instantly broke out on my forehead, and my heart started pounding due to nervousness.
Magu looked at me and smiled, "Young brother Yang, don't be nervous, just relax. This Cone Blood Flower, also known as the Cone Heart Flower, will insert its tip directly into the blood vessel next to the heart, but because its tip is very thin, the amount of blood output will not be too much. Don't worry. After half an hour, this Cone Blood Flower will extract 1,000 milliliters of blood from your body."
I smiled wryly and nodded.
But I soon found that the initial pain in my body also disappeared very quickly. The cone blood flower seemed to have a certain anesthetic effect on the body, and soon I could no longer feel its presence.
Moreover, after taking the blood-generating pill, the hot feeling in my body began to slowly subside.
When I turned my head to look at the coneflower, I found that as the blood was continuously absorbed into its flower stem, the originally emerald green stem of the coneflower had now turned bright red.
Even the thorns on it have turned blood red.
I don't know when, Magu had inserted a tube as thick as my little finger diagonally under the stem of the Conus Blood Flower. As the Conus Blood Flower continued to suck my blood out, bright red blood continued to flow out of the tube.
Placed below the tube is a jade bottle.
The jade bottle is used to collect blood.
Through the thin jade wall of the jade bottle, I found that the blood inside was constantly rising.
Half an hour passed quickly.
Magu chuckled and said, "Young Brother Yang, all right, one thousand milliliters of blood has been drawn!"
Then she slowly pulled the tip of the coneflower stem out of my chest.
I moved my body, but apart from feeling a little weak, I didn't feel anything else.
"You can get up now!"
I sat up slowly.
That little fox Xianghe is also kind-hearted. After all, I was saving her life.
Xiang He walked to the bed, looked at my chest, and asked with concern: "Yang Tianyi, how do you feel?"
I smiled back at her and said, "It's okay, I feel fine!"
I noticed that Xianghe's face turned red again. It seemed that this girl was quite shy.
Magu looked at the jade bottle in her hand with satisfaction and put the stopper on it.
Then, Magu smiled and said to me, "Young brother Yang, please leave the stone chamber first. I need to give my daughter Xianghe a blood transfusion later."
I didn't react and said subconsciously, "It's okay. Master Magu, please do your thing. I'll just stand aside and watch."
But I found that both Magu and the little fox Xianghe
After hearing what I said, they all showed embarrassed expressions on their faces.
Xianghe even glared at me.
As for Magu, she smiled awkwardly and said, "Young brother Yang, it's not that I don't want you to be here. It's just... Let me put it this way, when I give Xiang He an IV later, I will also need to take off my clothes. It's not decent for a grown man like you to stand here!"
I understood immediately and my face was filled with embarrassment.
I quickly waved my hands and said, "Okay, okay... Then Master Magu, you go ahead and do your work. I'll go out for a walk by myself."
Magu smiled and said, "Go ahead. The ghost officials in the Gongyang Pavilion are all my subordinates. They are all very loyal. I have already told them about your affairs. They will take you to a place to rest."
"Okay, I'll be out first then!"
Then I walked out of the stone chamber quickly.
Soon the stone door of the stone chamber was closed.
There shouldn't be any problem if Magu gives her daughter a blood transfusion to purify Xianghe's body.
I walked out slowly with my hands behind my back, following the way I came.
Soon, I came out of the inner room of the offering pavilion.
As soon as I walked out of the inner room, a ghost official who was very thin and had curly hair, as if it had been burned by fire, came up with a smile.
His clothes were much more gorgeous than those worn by other ghost officials in the offering pavilion that I had seen before.
"You are the guest invited by Magu, right? Magu has just sent me a message asking me to entertain you well!"
When someone talks to me first, I naturally cannot ignore them.
I smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, I am the guest invited by Magu. But uncle, no, brother, you don't have to call me a guest, just call me 'Yang Tianyi'."
The ghost official shook his head and said, "How can that be possible! You are a guest of Magu, and a friend of our Gongyang Pavilion. How can I call you by your name? How about this, I will call you Young Master Yang!"
Young Master Yang, Young Master Yang...
Wow, I feel like I have traveled back in time to ancient times and become a prince or noble. Not bad!
"Mr. Yang, I am the housekeeper under Magu. My name is Zuo Weiran. I am older than you. You can just call me Uncle Zuo."
I nodded and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Uncle Zuo. How about this, Uncle Zuo, can you introduce this Gongyang Pavilion to me? I'm new here and need to stay here for a few days. I want to learn about the situation here."
"Okay, then I'll introduce you to the situation here!"
Zuo Weiran was very polite and courteous to me.
Zuo Weiran said, "This Gongyang Pavilion is the tenth stop that ghosts or souls must pass through in the underworld. Only ghosts or souls that have endured the suffering of the eighteen levels of hell can come here. The Gongyang Pavilion is vast and there are many ghosts living in it."
"But even if those ghosts settle on the land of the Gongyang Pavilion, they will still leave after staying here for three years."
"So the number of ghosts in the Gongyang Pavilion is basically constant. Although the Gongyang Pavilion is large, the land is very barren. But compared to the Eighteen Levels of Hell or other stations, those ghosts are still willing to come here."
"We also provide interest to ghosts. Of course, the prerequisite is that those ghosts must have family in the world of the living. Only when their family members burn ghost money for them, will we receive it and pay them interest."
"The Offering Pavilion, from the outside, looks like just a few-story attic. But inside the attic, there are many separate spaces. Those spaces are huge, and the things inside are almost all the good things in the Offering Pavilion."
"Of course, ordinary ghosts or ghost officials cannot enter the private space without the permission of Master Magu."
"Even if they want to sneak in, it's impossible. There are powerful restrictions on those spaces. Once they are touched, Master Magu will sense it, and those restrictions
The attack power is not weak either. It can easily tear a ghost into pieces."
Listening to Zuo Weiran, I can understand what he said before.
But I could hear a warning in his next words. He probably wanted to tell me that although I was a guest, I couldn't walk around randomly, otherwise I would be easily killed by those space restrictions.
By the end of it, I was tired of listening to it.
I smiled at Zuo Weiran and said, "Since there are so many dangerous restrictions in the Supply Pavilion, I think I should stop wandering around... How about this, Uncle Zuo, take me to a room and I'll go over there to rest."
Zuo Weiran looked at me meaningfully, then nodded and said, "Okay! Then let's do as Young Master Yang says."
Then Zuo Weiran led me up to the attic of the offering pavilion again.
We stopped at the door of a room at the back of the first floor.
The door is an ancient one with hollow patterns carved on it, and dragons and phoenixes playing with them, which is very elegant.
"Mr. Yang, please go in and rest first. This is the room for entertaining guests."
"Um!"
I nodded, clasped my fists towards Zuo Weiran, and said, "Thank you, Uncle Zuo!"
Zuo Weiran showed a slight smile on his face, and without staying for long, he turned and left.
I looked around. It was quiet and most of the rooms were similar to mine.
Feeling bored, I slowly opened the door.
When I walked into the room, I couldn't help but feel surprised.
My goodness, the Offering Pavilion is the Offering Pavilion. The decoration in this room alone is magnificent and luxurious. The tables, chairs, beds, and screens are all made of gold.
Those toys should feel cool to the touch.
I am not the kind of person who likes to take advantage of small gains, otherwise, even if I had to bite with my teeth, I would definitely get a few pieces of gold off. I was so happy that I walked around the house for a long time.
When I lay on the soft quilt, my heart was completely relaxed.
I thought to myself, it’s really nice to be a guest of the Offering Pavilion.
Just as I closed my eyes and decided to take a nap, the soul collecting barrel on my waist shook a little. Then the voice of the mischievous ghost Duoduo came from the barrel.
"Big brother, please let Duoduo out. Duoduo has something to do!"
Got something to do
This is the underworld, not the world of the living. What could happen to the little troublemaker Duoduo
I asked suspiciously, "Duoduo, have you figured it out and are ready to reincarnate?!"
I thought about it, it would be great if Duoduo could reincarnate now, she wouldn't have to go through the procedures of the underworld and wouldn't have to suffer.
But Duoduo said, "Big brother, I don't want to reincarnate, I really have something to do. Please let me out first!"
Helplessly, I tore off the "seal" on the soul-collecting barrel and opened the lid of the soul-collecting barrel.
Soon, Duoduo turned into a ball of black gas and flew out from the soul-collecting barrel.
Duoduo, who had transformed into a spirit, said as soon as she came out: "Big brother, I'm leaving first. I'll come over when you leave the Offering Pavilion. Then we'll leave together. You can't leave on your own! Otherwise, I won't play with you!"
I didn't answer her, but said directly: "Duoduo, this is the underworld, it's very dangerous. You can't run around. If something happens to you, your big brother will feel uneasy."
Who would have thought that Duoduo would wave her hand and said with a smile: "Big brother, don't worry about me, Duoduo is fine! ... ... I'm leaving, big brother, take care of yourself! I have left a trace of ghost energy in the soul collecting barrel. If you want to contact me, just burn the ghost energy and I will come back to find you!"
"But where are you going? ... Alas! I haven't finished talking yet!"
Before I could finish my words, Duoduo's soul turned into black gas and slipped out through the crack in the door, disappearing without a trace!
