In the underworld, on the left bank of the River Styx, there is a mansion with red walls and blue tiles, just like a wealthy family in the world. Mr. Ma is dressed in a long robe and carries himself as gracefully as a fairy. In his rare free time, he drinks tea under the pavilion in the courtyard. In the garden, the fragrance of the underworld flowers and the deep blue color make it even more mysterious.
At this time, Xiao Sui's footsteps were light and carrying a fragrance, he came from behind. Mr. Ma put down his cup and chopsticks without looking back, "You seem to have come back earlier this time. Didn't you gain anything?"
The girl in white came floating over, picked up the wine bottle on the table, and took a few sips of wine. Mr. Ma frowned, "You are also a noble lady from the underworld, why are you so unruly?"
The girl smiled and said: "Old Ma, I went to the Linghu family to investigate, and sure enough, I found something. The person who cast the soul walked around the market with such swagger, don't you think it's rare?"
Mr. Ma was obviously not interested in this topic and said displeasedly: "Although you are not my biological child, I regard you as the apple of my eye. You should call me father."
The girl smiled coquettishly: "Old Ma is angry? The people in the world call you Ma Mian. It turns out your face is really long!" Before Mr. Ma could get angry, the girl lay on his shoulder like a baby: "Father, I still want to go. Go to the capital."
Mr. Ma's face turned stern: "Ma Xi, I have warned you many times that the past is over, and Prince Nanxuan has released his rejected soul. Don't get entangled with him anymore!"
This time it was Marcy's turn to be displeased, "What a stubborn old man, I'll ignore you!" After that, he disappeared like a gust of wind.
Mr. Ma was very used to her being in this state, so he just smiled and continued drinking tea. After a while, a servant in green clothes came to report: "The young lady arrested a strange soul when she returned, but that person drank eighteen bowls of Meng Po soup and still cannot forget the things in the mortal world. Please make a decision, sir."
Mr. Ma smiled: "I haven't seen anything strange like this for many years. It seems that he is the person I am looking for. I invite him to come over and have tea."
After a while, the servant brought a man, dressed in white with long hair disheveled. Mr. Ma smiled and asked the man to sit down. The man looked surprised and asked, "I heard that ghosts in the underworld wear handcuffs and shackles and are tortured. Why are you so polite to me?"
"Underworld is a place of cause and effect, and only evil people will be severely punished."
The man sat down nervously and said, "I'm here at Liumu. When the officials ask questions, I will answer them truthfully."
Mr. Ma smiled and said: "Only people with very strong obsessions can withstand the medicinal effects of Meng Po Tang. It seems that you are a person with a story!"
"I do have unfinished business in the world, so I can't forget it!"
"Some souls in the underworld die in vain, some are trapped by love, and some are greedy for wealth. But once you enter the underworld, all the past will turn into smoke. It's not because of your obsession, but because you have a super strong soul."
His words confused Liu Mu. He was about to ask more questions when he suddenly felt dizzy and as if he was about to faint.
"Smelling the fragrance of the underworld flower, your soul has begun to awaken. Stay in my house, and I have important matters to discuss with you in detail."
Three days later, Liumu meditated among the underworld flowers. The flower of the underworld is shaped like a chrysanthemum and is very blue in color. It is very beautiful. Mr. Ma came slowly and saw that his eyes were falling into silence. He woke him up with a light cough and asked, "Have you gained anything in the past few days?"
Liu Mu opened his eyes, and anger rose on his face, "It turns out that my name is Que Xiu. I was killed by my own brothers, and also implicated my friends. My soul was imprisoned in the basin, and I went through many killings..."
"I hate you so much! Please sir, allow me to return the sun, kill all Murong's descendants, and save my friends!"
Mr. Ma flicked his sleeves and said calmly, "Your body of 'blood glass' has not rotted, and it is not impossible to return to the sun. Your friend Ningshuang, also known as Yuhongting, I also know her whereabouts... "
Que Xiu jumped up when he heard the words, "Then sir, please allow me to return the sun immediately. I am willing to pay any price."
"Although you died in vain, you are already a ghost in the underworld. There is no precedent for returning the sun. I have a proposal. As long as you can be used for me, other matters can be discussed."
"I am willing to do anything, go up to the sword or go down to the sea of fire, no matter what!"
"You are too violent at the moment, and returning to the world at this moment will only lead to more killings. Origin and destruction, love and hatred, good and evil, are all reincarnations of cause and effect. You still need to reflect on it carefully..."
On this day, Que Xiu was still meditating among the underworld flowers. The fragrance of the flowers curled into the depths of his heavenly spirit. Many pictures flashed before his eyes, like dreams and illusions, like incomplete memories that could not be spliced together. His thoughts were confused and he couldn't help but sigh.
Outside the flowers, someone snorted coldly: "I didn't expect you to be the guest of Lao Ma's seat? I made a mistake!"
Que Xiu looked back and saw that it was the person who arrested him. He was wearing a floral blue dress, his face was like snow and frost, and he had a murderous look on his face. "You can only achieve enlightenment in one life when you awaken your soul among the underworld flowers. It seems that your qualifications are mediocre!"
"Que Xiu..." As soon as he started to speak, Ma Xi interrupted him coldly: "Who are you, what does it matter to me? In the eyes of this young lady, you are as dusty as dust and not worth mentioning at all!"
Seeing how arrogant she was, Que Xiu simply closed his eyes and ignored him.
"Oops! You have a low-spirited soul and a small temper? Look at me using the 'soul-repelling' technique to capture you, and then use the soul-beating whip to treat you well. See if you can bear it?" The eldest lady lost her temper for no reason. , it’s time to take action.
At this time, a servant rushed to report, "Miss, after receiving the report from Black and White, a strange soul was found in Yuzhu Ridge, Luoxia Mountain. It is very powerful. Please take action, Miss."
When Ma Xi heard this, she became energetic. She waved her servant away, turned to Que Xiu and asked, "I am lonely and bored here. Would you like to go to the underworld with me?"
Que Xiu was immediately interested when he heard that he could return Yang, but when he thought about this woman's capriciousness, he had to pretend to be uninterested and still ignore her.
"Your method of awakening the soul will be effective within a year and a half. If you follow this young lady, I will teach you the shortcut to awaken the soul..."
Maxi led him through the underworld, and the cave turned nine twists and turns. There were ghost soldiers and ghosts guarding many places, but no one questioned him. It seemed that the eldest lady was arrogant and everyone knew it.
"This is the Hall of Reincarnation. If the soul is reincarnated, it must pass through this hall."
Que Xiu responded casually, but was thinking about other things. "If you take me to the underworld privately, will Mr. Ma blame you?"
"Old Ma took you in just because you have a powerful soul that can be used by him. We are going to resist the capture of strange souls now, which is what you are going to do in the future, so you should practice first."
The two of them came to a spacious hall. There was a large cauldron inside, which was dark in color and filled with green smoke, creating countless scenes.
"This is the 'Cauldron of Fate', which controls the fate of mortals. If you want to return to Yang, you must pass through this cauldron."
Que Xiu still wanted to ask more clearly, so Ma Xi pointed his finger, wrote a talisman in the air and pasted it on his forehead. Suddenly, his body lightened up, and Que Xiu floated into the green smoke of the cauldron like a fallen leaf...
Above the official road, the sun is like fire, and there are rows of green shade on both sides. Two horses were riding side by side on the road. One was a rich girl, wearing brocade clothes and a bamboo hat covering her face. The other was a young servant in green clothes, very capable.
"Are you satisfied with this skin? This is my best collection in the world!"
Que Xiu changed the subject, "You said you wanted to teach me a shortcut method to awaken my soul."
Maxi's face sank, "Why can't you trust me? How stingy!" As she spoke, she tapped her fingertips, and a ray of blue light flew into Que Xiu's shoulder. He felt pain like a needle prick.
"I will plant a flower of the underworld into your body. When the underworld flower enters the mortal world, it needs to be watered with human blood. It will slowly sprout and bloom. Although you cannot see it, you can smell its fragrance every day. The effect is extraordinary."
Que Xiu felt a stinging pain that penetrated deep into his bones, and he couldn't help but frown. Ma Xi curled his lips disdainfully: "Of course, there is a price to pay for raising the Minghua. Even this pain is unbearable. I think you should forget your past life and just go and be reincarnated!"
Que Xiu gradually got used to the pain and his complexion returned to normal. Ma Xi was also secretly surprised. The Minghua was bleeding and the pain was extraordinary. It was unbearable for ordinary people, but this man was talking and laughing calmly. It seems that the person Daddy likes is really good at something.
Further forward, there is a small town called Luoxia Town. It is bustling with people coming and going, and it is quite prosperous. The mountains in the distance are towering and covered with green bamboos, and the scenery is unique.
The two of them stayed at the inn. Maxi's room was spacious and luxurious, and she really looked like a young lady. Que Xiu could only live in a wing in the backyard, which was quite frustrating.
"Can you give me some mana so that I can help when the time comes?"
Ma Xi's face sank and she said, "It's really unruly! You must address me as Miss every time before you speak. This is the duty of a slave." Then she changed the subject, "Only Lao Ma can do that if you want to bestow magic power on me. Yes, there is nothing I can do. You only need to observe this kind of action from a distance, no help is needed."
At night, the two began to take action. Climbing up the stairs from Luoxia Town, there is a large house halfway up the mountain. It is built according to the mountainous terrain, with pavilions and pavilions scattered in an orderly manner. It was just the second watch, and the courtyard was brightly lit, like starlight shining over the mountains.
"This Yuting Villa is the Nangong mansion of the demon-conquering family, so be very careful!"
Que Xiu looked at the lonely lights in the mountains and lost his mind, "I heard that the 'Cui Tower' in Yuting Villa contains magical tools, talismans, treasures and antiques, all of which are rare treasures. I really want to take a look!"
Marcy tapped his head gently to warn, "Don't have any evil thoughts. This demon-conquering family is not trivial. If you are caught stealing treasures, I can't protect you!"
After Que Xiu sighed, he got back to the topic, "Miss, it seems peaceful here, there is nothing abnormal!"
"The more peaceful the place, the more likely it is to hide the darkness that cannot be seen. This is a common trick of hypocrites!" Masi said, taking out a red pearl from his arms, the brilliance flickered, and a ray of red light pointed to the mountain stream next to it.
"Sure enough, there is something fishy!" Marcy said proudly.
The two turned and entered the woods. The mountain gradually became steeper, and the red light of the pearl became brighter and brighter. There was gurgling water ahead, and a waterfall blocked the way. Que Xiu whispered: "Miss, there seems to be nothing unusual?"
Maxi sneered and said: "This little trick of illusion and enchantment is not difficult for me!" She pulled her fingertips, and the pearl slowly rose, the light condensed into a line, from top to bottom, cutting through the center of the waterfall, The water flow faded, the light and shadow gradually disappeared, and under the moonlight, the vision suddenly opened up, showing another scene...
