As they entered, the peaceful River of Forgetfulness suddenly rolled, and countless grieving ghosts rushed towards them.
Qiao Xuan looked at the giant wolf who jumped in together in shock.
Are you crazy? !
Why do you want to dance with me? !
Although it is undeniable that Xueming is very strong, but it is a beast after all, it does not know how to refine weapons or spells, and it does not have half a magic weapon on it... It can only resist hard! But this is Wangchuan!
Qiao Xuan still remembered five hundred years ago, when he and Xueming came here, the silly dog was bitten terribly and bloody.
If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have risked his life to jump into the river of forgetfulness.
Because Xueming couldn't bear Wangchuan's resentful ghost.
Qiao Xuan was very anxious and regretted his hasty decision. Although it was only a period of time in his previous life, he really didn't have much love or hatred for Xue Ming, he was just a dog... Where can you hate him? The dog doesn't want you anymore, so why don't you kill it
Let alone a silly dog, even if Xueming was a human being, Qiao Xuan wouldn't look down on him so much, he's not Jiang Weiqing's kind of snake spirit...
There is no never-ending banquet in the world.
He never thought of asking Xueming to die for him.
It didn't, and it doesn't now.
But Wangchuan had too many resentful ghosts, and the huge waves surged over and separated them quickly.
The water droplets emitted a soft white light, protecting Qiao Xuan as he floated down the river.
The more the ghosts go down the river, the more ferocious they become, but no matter how many ghosts there are, as long as they touch the white light, they will turn into white mist and be evaporated.
This thing is too powerful...
Qiao Xuan followed the crowd.
After a few days and nights.
Suddenly it was washed ashore by the river.
He stepped on the solid dark red ground, and the river behind him became calm again, and he knew that he had come to the underworld.
Qiao Xuan looked behind him.
There was no trace of Xueming.
He pursed his lips.
Although Xueming couldn't resist the ghost of Wangchuan grieving back then, five hundred years have passed after all, and the silly dog now is much stronger than before. it's gone! So, it shouldn't be life-threatening...
When it can't find itself, it will naturally know to go back.
Don't need to worry about him.
Qiao Xuan comforted himself in this way, collected himself, turned his head and walked forward.
... ... ...
The underworld is really too big.
Qiao Xuan flew for nearly a month before finally arriving in a town.
When the dead souls come to the underworld, they have entities. This is the kingdom of the dead, but the living are outsiders.
Qiao Xuan has returned to his original appearance. Walking in the town, this place does not look much different from the ordinary world. The streets are noisy, there are taverns and brothels, and people eating, drinking and laughing are everywhere. It looks like a harmonious and prosperous scene .
If the dead souls want to be reincarnated, they need the birth of creatures in the mortal world. If the descendants are filial and powerful, and burn enough paper money every year, the dead souls can also live a good life in the underworld. Therefore, many dead souls are not in a hurry to reincarnate and stay in the underworld There are a lot of dead souls.
After all, I really went to reincarnate, and I don’t know whether the next life will be a human or a dog, and the randomness is still quite strong...
Qiao Xuan had already prepared before he came, and he had a lot of paper money on him. The inflation here is terrible, but fortunately he has enough paper money.
He stayed in an inn and ordered good wine and food, but he stopped eating after one meal.
He can't taste the food of the underworld alone, so it's better not to waste money.
In order to make it easier for him to find clues, Qiao Xuan drew the mirror he saw in the illusion on a piece of paper, and asked anyone he saw, but most of them said they hadn't seen it.
After more than ten days like this, there is still no clue.
Could it be that I have worked so hard to come here, so I am going to return without success like this
That day Qiao Xuan was sitting in the busiest restaurant in the city, ordered a jug of wine and put it in front of him. In the lobby of the restaurant, there was an old storyteller who was telling stories so vividly and vividly that everyone listened Very committed.
Qiao Xuan was bored for a while, so he followed along.
It tells a story about a gifted man, a beautiful woman, and a ghost. It is very tear-jerking. Among the ghosts listening, there are many sentimental female ghosts, who have already started crying, and the whole inn is full of gloomy wind. , very scary.
Qiao Xuan looked indifferent.
As a birdman who has experienced seven lifetimes of love, these stories are too childish to resonate.
The old man won a lot of rewards, his smiling eyes narrowed, and at everyone's request, he began to tell other stories, with a cadenced voice: "Do you know that the reincarnation underground palace is a relic left from ancient times, and now I don't know who the owner is. Who, but according to the legend, there is a mirror in that underground palace, as long as you get that mirror, you can become the owner of the underground palace of reincarnation... "
When the old man said this, he was interrupted by a guest, who asked curiously, "Why have we never heard of a mirror? Besides, isn't there an evil ghost living in the Underground Palace of Reincarnation?"
The old man shook his head, as if you didn't understand anything, he held his head high and said, "My old Zhang family's secret that has been passed down from generation to generation, if you all know what I will say?"
Everyone made a noise for a while, laughed and cursed a few words, and then stopped being serious.
Anyway, listen to the story, it doesn't matter whether it is true or not, as long as it is interesting.
Qiao Xuan narrowed his eyes and listened seriously.
The old man talked for about half an hour, took a sip of water, put away his things and said, "That's all for today, continue tomorrow."
After speaking, he packed his things and staggered out of the inn.
Qiao Xuan followed silently.
The old man was holding a money bag in his hand, shaking it in front of his eyes, grinning, suddenly he stopped, looked at the handsome young man in front of him, and said: "What's the matter, young man?"
It was Qiao Xuan who blocked the way.
Qiao Xuan raised his hand to salute, and said politely: "I heard the old man's story today and found it very interesting. Regarding the mirror in the underground palace you mentioned, Xiaosheng has some questions and wants to ask."
The old man narrowed his small eyes and shook his head: "The old man is only responsible for telling stories, and what he said is all made up. Asking me is the wrong person."
Qiao Xuan swiped, took out a thick stack of paper money, and smiled slightly: "It's okay, if the old man has time, I'll make up a story, I don't know if it's okay?"
The old man stared straight at the money in Qiao Xuan's hand, and after a while, his eyes narrowed, and he said solemnly: "Young master is so sincere, then I will tell you a special story for the old man."
Joe declared: "Please."
The two came to a nearby restaurant.
Qiao Xuan called a private room, ordered a jug of wine and a few appetizers for the old man, and then listened attentively.
The old man looked at the good wine and food in front of him, then touched the money in his pocket, his face was wrinkled and his smile turned into a flower, hehe said: "About this mirror...
Then we will talk about the reincarnation underground palace...
It is said that this underground palace of reincarnation has existed for as long as the underworld. No one knows when the underground palace existed, and no one knows who built the underground palace...
But any dead soul who wants to be reborn needs to go to the underground palace of reincarnation, and pass through the reincarnation pool in the underground palace to return to the mortal world for reincarnation...
It's always been there anyway.
The reincarnation pool that is now open is actually only a small part of the underground palace, used to maintain the operation of the underworld, but there is actually a lot of heaven and earth in it... "
Qiao Xuan's eyes moved slightly, and he said, "Why is this one so big?"
The old man said mysteriously: "Our old Zhang family has lived in the underworld for many, many years. You must know that there are many evil spirits and evil spirits in the underworld except us honest people. It is said that the reincarnation There is a treasure in the underground palace, and if you get it, you can live forever, which makes the evil spirits very powerful, so those powerful evil spirits and evil spirits will try to break into the underground palace... "
Qiao Xuan: "Oh?"
The old man stroked his beard and sighed: "Our old Zhang family also had a vicious ghost who tried to break into the underground palace of reincarnation, but failed. He disappeared within a day after he came back. Before he died, he told us that there is a mysterious mirror in the underground palace. As long as he is recognized by the mirror, he can become the master of the underground palace and take charge of the entire underworld! I told you to listen."
Qiao Xuan: "Didn't you say you made up a story?"
Old man: "..."
After a while, the old man blew his beard and stared, and said angrily, "Are you still listening?"
Qiao Xuan sneered: "Listen."
The old man glanced at him and continued: "Anyway, there is a mirror in the underground palace, but what is its function? I'm not sure if I can really get the mirror and become the master of the underworld."
Qiao Xuan thought for a moment, took out his painting, and asked, "Is that mirror like this?"
The old man looked at it for a while, then looked at Qiao Xuan complicatedly, and said, "Yes."
Qiao Xuan was a little excited, and finally had some clues, he asked again: "Then how to get to the underground palace of reincarnation?"
The old man didn't answer right away this time.
Qiao Xuan thought that the money was not enough, so he took out a large stack of paper money and said, "Thank you, old man, this is money for directions."
The old man must have looked at the money, endured it again and again, in the end he did not take it, but said seriously: "Old man, I love money, but this is not money for asking for directions, it is money for your life. I can't do this wicked thing." Do it, otherwise you will enter the animal realm in your next life."
Qiao Xuan's expression froze, "Why did the old man say that?"
The old man sighed: "We have been in the underworld for more than 10,000 years, and no evil spirits have entered the underground palace of reincarnation. Do you know why?"
Qiao Xuan shook his head.
The old man said slowly: "Because in the underground palace of reincarnation, there is an evil ghost..."
When he said this, fear appeared in his eyes, and he said slowly: "That is the only evil ghost that came out of Wangchuan. Since he went to the reincarnation underground palace, no other evil ghost has dared to get close..."
"If you are going to the underground palace to look for mirrors, I advise you not to go." The old man said, "Young master is living a good life. You have come here from thousands of miles, so you are not here to die, right?"
Qiao Xuan's eyes changed.
The old man drooped his eyelids, his expression remained unchanged: "I have also lived in the underworld for hundreds of years, so I can't tell the difference between the dead and the living."
Qiao Xuan's expression was serious, without any contempt, he said respectfully: "Since I have come here, the old man must know that this journey is not easy, and I will definitely not go back here, please tell the old man frankly..."
The old man shook his head and sighed: "It's been said that there is an evil spirit. That evil spirit eats people and doesn't spit out bones. If you go, you will die. Why do you have to make trouble with yourself... Besides, even if there is no such evil spirit, there is no one in so many years." Ghost, can get the mirror in the underground palace..."
Qiao Xuandao: "Please also ask the old gentleman to show me the way."
The old man looked at him for a while, seemed very helpless, and finally said: "If you really want to go, why bother to ask the way? Follow the crowded places, just go straight ahead, there are so many dead souls who want to line up to reincarnate. ah… "
Qiao Xuan was stunned, and immediately understood, he pushed the paper money forward, and said with a smile: "The old gentleman has said everything that should be said, I insist on going, and it has nothing to do with you, so even if there is something wrong, this evil result It's not on your head, so you can accept the way money with peace of mind."
After saying that, he arched his hands and walked out from here.
The old man looked at the paper money on the table, accepted it unceremoniously this time, and murmured to himself while counting the money: "Recently, it's really strange, every single living person is rushing to die, the beautiful one a few days ago The same goes for girls, just ask how to get to the underground palace of reincarnation if you have nothing to do... "
... ... ...
Qiao Xuan walked out of the restaurant, thoughtful.
According to what the old man said, the mirror should be in the Underground Palace of Reincarnation, but there is a very powerful evil spirit there, who came out of the River of Forgetfulness...
If this is true, it really should not be underestimated. You must know that the souls of the dead have entered the River of Forgetfulness, and once they are assimilated into ghosts, they will perish in the River of Forgetfulness forever, and it is impossible for them to come out again...
In any case, this underground palace of reincarnation is obviously not simple, and I must go there.
Qiao Xuan asked the way in the city, and came to the other side of the city gate. At the exit of the city gate, there was an endless line extending to the land outside the city. Qiao Xuan was shocked by this scene Come on, there are too many people queuing up to reincarnate!
He suddenly remembered that cursed sentence: Are you in a hurry to reincarnate
It's not easy to reincarnate, Qiao Xuan thought.
Fortunately, he didn't go to reincarnate, so he didn't have to wait in line. He squinted his eyes and was about to leave the city. Suddenly, his eyes swept across the front, and he quickly dodged to hide in the crowd!
A giant wolf covered in blood walked slowly on the street.
Its beautiful and smooth hair is stained with large areas of bright red, and some places seem to be gnawed, revealing long and short stubble, dark golden pupils look cold, and it exudes this ferocious aura... Everywhere it goes, all the dead souls are afraid back away.
Qiao Xuan hid in the crowd, watching... Suddenly, his heart ached.
It's nothing else, he can't bear to see such a beautiful fur being bitten like this, the visual impact is too great, as if he saw a scene of dog abuse, he really can't bear it!
And he didn't expect that Xueming not only didn't go back, but even chased him here.
Why bother
This silly dog was chasing Ruohua to death, and now he is chasing himself to the river of forgetfulness. He is not smart enough, and he always foolishly sends him to his death.
It's still alive so far...
Probably silly dogs have silly blessings.
Qiao Xuan's eyes changed slightly, he pursed his lips, resisting the urge to go out.
All the grievances between him and Xueming were settled in the previous life, and the reincarnation underground palace that he was going to would only be more dangerous than Wangchuan, so there was no reason to bring a silly dog with him.
He turned around cruelly, about to slip away quietly...
At this time, the giant wolf suddenly lowered its head and sniffed on the ground. Like a hurricane, it slammed away the dead souls on the road and stood in front of Qiao Xuan!
Qiao Xuan: ...
