Under the dark night, the moonlight is icy cold.
The once bustling riverside is now deserted.
The people of the Wu clan, completed the main ceremony of cremation. The ashes of the old man Wu have been poured into the river and flowed down the river.
The raging fire had already been extinguished, and only the ceremonial wizard and a few children of the filial family who were dressed in burlap and filial piety shouted their souls by the river, and sent the old man away respectfully.
Such rituals would last all night, with ritual wizards reciting different sutras, and the Wujia children who shouted souls would continue to rotate until dawn.
Although there are still many white spiritual flags hanging by the river, there are many people from the Wu clan staying.
But compared to the lively crowd at the beginning, it is much quieter now.
Lu Heng stood in the void and said goodbye to Gu Zhou, "This is the matter, and Mr. Wu's soul, Lu, will be taken away. It caused the goddess Jiang to run away in vain, and Lu was uneasy."
Gu Zhou smiled and said, "Being able to see the ghost world, the concubine's body tonight is an eye-opener. It's just..."
Saying that, Gu Zhou hesitated a little.
Seeing this, Lu Heng said, "Miss Jiang Shen can speak bluntly if she has something to say."
Gu Zhou hesitated for a long time, and then said, "This matter is very related, and let the concubine go back to think about one side. If Eng agrees, the concubine will come back to visit in a few days."
Lu Heng was a little surprised - depending on the situation, it seems that Goddess Jiang also wants to contribute to the construction of the Nether
He couldn't help laughing, and said, "That's the case, Lu Mou is waiting for the mother-in-law in Fushan City."
Free coolies, of course, the more the better!
Jiang Shen is willing to help, how could Lu Heng make an extrapolation? Naturally agreed.
Chapter 121
After saying goodbye to Jiang Shen Gu Zhou, Lu Heng returned to the city with the soul of Mrs. Wu.
When Helan Wuzhu said goodbye, he seemed a little absent-minded, but Lu Heng didn't say much, but left with the soul of Mr. Wu.
Sometimes too enthusiastic, but it is easy to make people suspicious.
The seeds had already been planted anyway, and all Lu Heng had to wait was for the seeds to germinate and bear fruit.
In the courtyard behind the Fire Temple, when Lu Heng returned with Old Man Wu's soul, Xiao Ai was guarding the door where Lu Heng's body was.
Seeing Lu Heng come back, the little girl breathed a sigh of relief and finally relaxed.
"Lord Wolf God," Xiao Ai called out.
Lu Heng nodded and said hello.
He gave up the soul of the old man beside him and introduced with a smile, "This is the old man of the Wu family, Xiao Ai, you attended the funeral of Mr. Wu Lao."
Seeing the old man's soul, Xiao Ai was a little surprised, but didn't say anything, and bowed to the old man.
Facing the little girl with silver-haired beast ears in front of him, Wu Yuan didn't dare to ask her for help, and hurriedly returned the salute.
Lu Heng introduced, "This is Xiao Ai, that is Huo Feng, a disciple of Yunmen, who is walking with me now... The little Gu eagle on his shoulder is named Gu Yan."
After introducing the old man one by one, Lu Heng smiled and led the old man to sit down in the courtyard, saying.
"The old gentleman's soul has drifted away, and he should have been waiting for reincarnation in the Netherworld, away from the sun and wind in the world. It's just the matter of the Wu family in the world, and the old gentleman probably still doesn't feel relieved... The old gentleman said earlier that he was poisoned by the evil son. , I don't know how the old gentleman plans to deal with this matter?"
Lu Heng's question made Wu Yuan silent for a while.
Under the moonlight, the old man sighed and said, "If you want to blame it, you can only blame the younger generation for being old and being too spoiled."
"The eldest son has a soft temperament and seems to be gentle, but in fact, he is constantly careful and selfish, and only thinks about himself when things happen."
"The younger son's personality is eccentric, and he was not restrained when he was young, which made him more and more mischievous. In the early years, he was sent to practice in the mountains, hoping that he would be able to learn well, but he was eventually expelled from the door by the master."
"After coming back, the junior can't think about it, so he can only let him travel with the caravan, let him travel from south to north, save him from staying in the city to spend the rest of his life and cause trouble again."
The more the old man said, the more sorrowful his face became. "I hoped that the boss would gradually take charge of the affairs. After all, although this child is narrow-minded, he has the ability to do things. But I don't want to, this evil son actually poisoned me and wanted to seize power... hey..."
When the old man said this, the tangled old face made Lu Heng quite speechless.
This old man has been hit hard...
After a while, the old man said bitterly, "It's also the younger generation who chose the wrong person. The future of this Wu clan should not have been expected from these two stubborn rebels."
"It's only now that I suddenly realize who I can entrust to me... My second daughter, although she is a daughter, is shrewd and strong, and has contributed a lot to my Wu clan over the years."
"It seems that the future of the Wu family can only be entrusted to her."
The old man's sigh decided, and Lu Heng nodded.
He didn't comment much on the old man's decision. At least the old man in front of him has a thorough understanding of the situation at home.
It was only a fluke before that ended up like this.
Lu Heng said, "Since the old man has made a decision, Lu will help you to set things right. But before acting, the old man needs to think a lot."
"This matter is very involved. If you act on your own will, I'm afraid it will lead to disaster."
Lu Heng's consolation, the old man hurriedly agreed, "Senior's words are very true, junior's mind."
Lu Heng didn't say much, and after letting Xiao Ai lead the old man to rest in the empty room, he sat in the courtyard and continued to study the bamboo slips sent by He Lanzhen.
The matter of the Wu family has now become clear.
Helping Mr. Wu to set things right is just a trivial matter for Lu Heng, and he doesn't need to be too concerned about it.
Therefore, what he was thinking about was whether to ask He Lanzhen for some cultivation secrets to study.
If he can read more about the cultivation secrets of other monks and broaden his horizons, it will be of great help for him to explore his own way of cultivation.
On the other hand, after He Lanzhen said goodbye to Lu Heng, she returned to the Temple of Fire with some thoughts.
Step into his room.
Although it is a city of witches, He Lanzhen's room is not luxurious, and it is definitely not as good as the elders of the old clans in the city.
There were too many things to worry about in her heart. He Lanzhen waved her hand and ignited the candle in the room, but suddenly saw a figure sitting in the room.
The other party was sitting in the middle of the room, looking at He Lanzhen with a smile.
With He Lanzhen's cultivation, he didn't even feel the slightest breath
Helanzhen was startled at first, then saw the face of the person who came, and hurriedly saluted, "Helanzhen has seen the king."
He Lanzhen was already used to the elusive behavior of the king.
And Lian Shanjing looked at her with a smile and said, "You don't need to be polite, come and sit."
After greeting He Lanzhen to sit beside her, Lian Shanjing said with a smile, "I heard that you went to meet the world with the wolf god tonight? How is it? Is it fun?"
Helanzhen was stunned for a moment, a little surprised, "The lord, you were there at the time? Then why didn't you show up?"
"Uh... cough..." Lian Shanjing coughed dryly and almost choked.
She wanted to make fun of her, but she didn't expect to be turned against the army...
Silently looking at He Lanzhen who didn't understand what a joke was in front of her, Lian Shanjing felt a little tired.
"Hey... I'm fine, I'll skip this matter," Lian Shanjing waved her hand and said, "Let's talk about where the Wolf God took you to, why after you guys disappeared, I'm even a little angry. Can't feel it? Where have you been?"
When Shan Jing mentioned the business, He Lanzhen's expression became serious.
She thought of all the strange things about the nether land, and immediately grabbed the hand of the king and told everything she had seen and heard during her trip.
In the candlelight, Lian Shanjing's expression, from the very first smile, gradually became solemn.
The unstoppable supernatural power, the dark and gloomy world of the dead, the water of the Yellow Spring that condenses the soul of mortals, and the weak water where the goose feathers cannot float, and the so-called reincarnation channel on the weak water...
After listening to He Lanzhen's narration, Lian Shanjing, who originally came with a joke mentality, couldn't laugh at all.
Because of the experience He Lanzhen told and the description of the magical power of the wolf, she thought of one thing.
—When she was following the wolf god, she seemed to be above the Pangjiang River, and she felt an inexplicable sense of horror.
It seemed that he was being watched by something.
But at that time, she didn't think much about it because she didn't perceive the power of the wolf god's thunder.
Now that I think about it... Could it be that at that time the wolf god wanted to lock her in that dark and gloomy nether space? Did she turn around before the gate of hell? So she suddenly panicked
After realizing this, the expression on Lian Shanjing's face was instantly wonderful...

PS: There are two more updates today, which will be provided later
Chapter 122 The little mouth is so sweet
Lian Shanjing's strange expression made Helanzhen full of surprise.
Even if the ghost realm is truly extraordinary, the king wouldn't react like this, right
She couldn't help but call out, "The lord... the lord?"
After calling twice in a row, Lian Shanjing was brought back to his senses.
"Oh? Oh... Where did we just say?" Lian Shanjing sorted out her expression and regained her composure, "Continue talking."
"..." He Lanzhen was a little speechless, but the character of the lord of the country had already escaped, and it was not surprising that there were occasional surprises.
She could only sigh and continued, "This ghost world created by the wolf god is by no means an ordinary small world."
"Its vast territory and special internal rules cannot be built overnight. Moreover, the existence of the reincarnation channel has the unpredictable power of ghosts and gods."
"If it can be exploited and used, maybe..."
He Lanzhen didn't say anything later, because it was a little hard to tell.
Lian Shanjing was not shy about meat and vegetables, so she spoke directly, "You just want to say, if this reincarnation channel can be opened to the world, there will be no soulless disease in the future?"
"What's so bad about this? Wolf God is not a stingy person, so what's the harm even if you say it?"
Lian Shanjing said, "And why did the wolf god suddenly want to take a few of you to see the nether world? Is it really just the right time? Hehe..."
Lian Shanjing smiled and said, "I have been walking with the wolf god for a while, and I know him a little bit."
"Although this guy is divine and upright, he is sometimes childish like a urchin."
"His nether world is so strange. If it's just used to deal with the enemy, why make it so complicated? It's the yellow spring water that condenses the soul of mortals, and it's a reincarnation tunnel that can be reincarnated..."
"In addition to the various peculiarities of this Netherworld, it is all very beneficial to the souls of the dead... Why does he bother with so many fancy things?"
Lian Shanjing raised a finger and shook it, "You can't say that you are not the only one who wants to change the insanity. Someone wanted to change all of this many years ago, and that's why This incomparably bizarre ghost world."
"Now I'm taking you to the Netherworld to play, and I just want to use your mouth to tell me Huotong Nation that he has a solution to the insomnia."
Lian Shanjing said with a smile, "This guy... Even if he wants to change the status quo in the world, he has to ask us to do it. Are you naive?"
Helan Zhen was speechless, but she wanted to say in her heart, it's actually quite naive for you to think so.
However, the person in front of him is the lord after all, and some words can only be said in his heart.
She thought about it and said, "Then let's go directly to the wolf god, maybe the wolf god will agree to our request?"
Lian Shanjing thought for a while, but shook her head and sighed.
"It's not that easy... The Wolf God didn't say it outright, and he must have his concerns."
"Since he said that the Netherworld can only be entered and cannot be exited, it means that in order to build this reincarnation system, someone must maintain order in the Human World and guide the soul into the Netherworld."
"But there are many dead people in the world. To maintain this order, a lot of manpower and material resources are necessary... Where can these manpower be found?"
"Whether it is to hand over this responsibility to the Fire Temple of each city, or to open another place of power, Huotong Nation is required to make huge changes."
"If this matter is handled carelessly, it may even shake the people's livelihood. I cannot make a decision lightly."
"Well, you continue to stay in Fushan City to entertain the wolf god. If the wolf god has any requirements, you will meet all the requirements. And I will go back to China and have a good chat with those old men."
"In this matter, we must first discuss a result internally and set the tone before we can go to the wolf god to negotiate."
Lian Shanjing said, stood up directly, and said, "The wolf god will be handed over to you, don't let him run away."
He Lanzhen hesitated to speak—the wolf god is really leaving, can I still stop him
Lian Shanjing also realized that her request was a bit outrageous, so she smiled and said, "Okay, okay, just treat yourself well. If the wolf god wants to leave, try to keep it. If you can't keep it, you will find a way to ask. Asking the wolf god where he is going next, so that I can find it in the future... It's not difficult, right?"
