As the night gets darker, the rustling footsteps are accompanied by the lights, and the shadows of the branches are swaying, making it even more peaceful.
It is obviously a large dense forest, but there is no sound of animals or birds, no cicadas chirping, no frogs croaking, and no hares flashing through the grass.
Walking in this darkness, there was only a not too bright oil lamp.
The atmosphere seemed to have become solemn without realizing it, even a little scary...
"Crack! Bang!"
My back was hit hard for no apparent reason.
"Sorry, Lao Chuan, I didn't pay attention."
I was speechless, and out of anger I kicked it away. You stepped on the branch first, and then hit me!
You think my brain is just a decoration!
I don’t know if you, Ya Laosun, did it on purpose! !
"Hey, what's going on? Why don't you prepare a flashlight and insist on taking an oil lamp? Can't you use a mobile phone?"
As I said that, I took out my cell phone angrily, activated the flashlight function, and flashed it brightly in front of Lao Sun's eyes.
"Ahem, isn't this necessary for the atmosphere?"
Lao Sun coughed dryly, then said awkwardly, and extinguished the oil lamp in his hand.
"Haha, Xiaochuan, Xiaosun knows the environment here, so he wants to scare you, but it has been ten minutes and he has not succeeded."
Hearing this, Mr. Zhao in front turned back and smiled, and extinguished the oil lamp in his hand.
I said that along the way, why did your old grandson bump into me once or twice from behind...
Can't we play something more advanced?
I looked at Lao Sun angrily, wishing I could kick the monkey hair away.
How long has it been and you still want to have fun?
Living for so many years seems fake, you are still young again.
"This is such a good horror movie scene, Lao Chuan, didn't you humans say, once you come, make peace with it, enjoy life, and integrate into the scene."
Lao Sun said confidently.
Ah.
I'm afraid this monkey hair started to get sick because he ate too much hot pot at night.
If not, let's find a pit together and bury this thing. By the way, is there any pit that can guarantee that this monkey hair will be buried so that it can't come out?
I was too lazy to talk to Lao Sun and pulled him behind me. I walked up and stood side by side with Mr. Zhao.
"Grandpa Zhao, do you know where we are going?"
I asked curiously.
We've been holding it in all this time, and the three of us didn't say a word the whole time. I thought there was some kind of taboo?
It turns out Madhu is the monkey hair of Lao Sun who is making a fool of himself!
"Wait a moment, Xiaochuan, let me look at the map. I am old and my memory is not very good."
What?
I froze in place.
I saw Mr. Zhao slide open the smart lock of his mobile phone, skillfully open the map of Xun, and look closely at it.
"Yeah, now we are walking through the Happy Forest, and then we go out to the Styx River. We can cross it on the Naihe Bridge or take a ferry. Then we go back past the Gate of the Past, which is our destination this time, the Palace of Reincarnation."
The corners of my mouth twitched. I would rather believe that I was deaf or blind than I could believe everything I heard.
Forget about the River Styx, the Bridge of Naihe, the Hall of Reincarnation, etc. What the hell is there a Happy Forest in the front!
This preface does not match the postscript at all! !
Forget it about Happy Forest, but Mr. Zhao, can you tell me, what the hell is this map?
Is Xun's business so strong? !
The business has gone to hell! ! !
"Lao Chuan, don't make such a fuss. Times are developing, human beings are progressing, and the underworld also needs to keep pace with the times."
Lao Sun said calmly, and as he spoke, he opened a certain software that looked familiar at first glance.
"You have placed your order successfully."
I was silent for a long time, and then I choked out a sentence:
"What the hell are you doing?"
"Order takeout, ah no, order milk tea. When we leave the forest, we will go to the River Styx. There are many people there, and the milk tea shop is in short supply, so we have to place an order in advance."
Lao Sun said with a calm smile.
"By the way, Mr. Zhao, what flavor do you want?"
"Oh, just give me the original flavor. I can't bear to drink something too sweet."
"Okay, no problem, by the way, Lao Chuan, why don't you have some, now..."
boom!
I punched the tree next to me with no expression on my face.
What the hell is this.
"...New...comers will also receive large discount coupons when ordering."
Big discount, sir!
Milk tea, your sister!
What the hell kind of hell is this world? Can it be serious anymore? !
What's the use of my big discount? I'm only twenty-nine years old. I just found a partner, okay? I still don't have enough life! ! !
"It's okay, Xiaochuan. Old man, I was shocked when I first learned about it, but now it seems that the development is like this all over the world, not just in our country."
"That's right, Lao Chuan, I remember that a few years ago, there was a business that a vampire was responsible for, but it ended up being wasted because he fell in love with an angel. The most important thing is that he was gay. It is said that even Satan and Michael would end up eating melons. I still want to Let’s do a live broadcast, but it’s a pity that it’s not easy to circumvent the external network.”
Lao Sun said with a sigh on his face, his words full of regret for not being able to watch this.
Destroy, indeed.
The world has gone crazy!
Although after the popular science provided by Lao Sun and Mr. Zhao, I was mentally prepared for the next scene.
But when I walked out of the woods and the view suddenly broadened, I was still deeply shocked by the scene in front of me.
"Don't miss it if you pass by. Two coins for everyone. Two coins for everyone. Two coins will be drawn once. You will definitely win, and there will never be an empty box!"
"Freshly baked barbecue~, eight skewers for ten coins, special price today!"
"Do you want to have a beautiful hairstyle, do you want to get a high rate of turning heads on the bridge, then don't hesitate, don't doubt, hurry up and enter the new era of hairdressing, apply for a card now and enjoy a 20% discount."
"It's a trap, it's a trap, three circles for twenty coins, ten circles for fifty coins, whatever the trap is, it's real and effective."
"Dear friends, please line up in an orderly manner to avoid crowding, take care of the elderly and children, carry your belongings, and cross the bridge in an orderly manner to avoid inconvenience to you and others..."
"Sweet honey~ Your smile is so sweet~ Milk tea is delicious in the spring breeze~"
…………
There is a mixture of fish and dragons and a lot of traffic.
Well, it's a real fish. A fish that looks bigger than a whale, but doesn't look like a whale. It jumps out from the Styx River from time to time, splashing large waves and making dragon roars.
As for the cars, well, there seems to be a traffic jam on the bridge in front, and there are constant yelling, yelling, and noises.
"I'm sorry, Old...Old Sun, have you arrived at the underworld so quickly? Just walked a few steps? Is the underworld so close to Lincheng?"
"Hey, new guy, what are you talking about? Please look down at the landmarks."
Before Lao Sun could reply, a dissatisfied young male voice came.
When I heard the sound, I looked around and saw a man who was wearing trendy clothes, a large gold chain around his neck, and a pair of sunglasses on his head. He was looking at me with a dissatisfied look on his face and pointed at me angrily.
"Have you seen the prefectural subdivision in Lincheng City, Qin Province of the People's Republic of China? Look at it. It's a serious national landmark. It doesn't look like it's illiterate. It's uneducated. It's really scary."
I stiffened my fist inexplicably. For some reason, when I saw the handsome and disdainful face of this yellow-haired young man, I couldn't help but want to beat him up.
Although I'm pretty sure this is the first time we've met.
"Shut your stinky mouth, Mo Guan. We haven't seen each other for several years. Why do you still have such a stinky mouth? Is the milk tea I ordered ready?"
Lao Sun immediately retorted unceremoniously.
"Huh? Oh, it's really you. I thought you had the same name when I ordered just now. You woke up so quickly. It's amazing."
When Mo Guan heard this familiar voice, he couldn't help but open his eyes wide. He looked carefully at Lao Sun up and down. He was not annoyed and said with a smile.
"Lao Chuan, let's go. He has this problem. He has a bad mouth. He has some shitty luck. He can become the governor of Lincheng branch, but he is not dedicated at all and insists on opening a milk tea shop. shop."
"Walker, if you don't eat enough grapes, you say the grapes are sour. What's wrong with the milk tea shop? The milk tea shop makes so much money. What can you do with that dead salary? In today's society, extra money is king."
Mo Guan said with a smile as he led us forward.
Passing by the dense crowd, whether they were vendors, pedestrians, or staff, they all wisely gave way to a passage.
That’s awesome!
I was full of curiosity and immediately took this opportunity to look around.
Mr. Zhao, on the other hand, had a smile on his face, neither spoke nor looked around. He just followed him and walked slowly.
"How long will it take to wake up this time? If you take some time, I'll call Lao Zhu and the others to play mahjong."
"Why are you playing mahjong? I'm busy driving for you. I have too much to do. Let's talk about it when we have time."
Lao Sun said casually.
"Driver? Oh, that's great. Let's talk about it when we have time. Let's talk about it when we have time."
Mo Guan was slightly stunned at first, and then he said with a calm smile, but his eyes glanced at me as if nothing existed.
I was just looking around, so naturally I didn't notice Mo Guan's gaze.
Mo's milk tea.
This is the name of the milk tea shop in front of me. The words on the plaque are like dragons and phoenixes. It seems that it was written by everyone.
The architectural style is different from modern ones. Instead, it looks like an ancient teahouse. Well, if it weren't for the wooden sign at the door with the words "Today's special offer of nectar milk tea" on it, it would look like a teahouse no matter how you look at it.
"Sit wherever you want. You can choose what you want to drink. I'll treat you. It's free of charge. Xiao Zhao, come out to greet your guests!"
Mo Guan waved his hand and said boldly, then raised his head and shouted upstairs.
"Don't you know how to entertain yourself? Really!"
A voice full of helplessness and resentment came from upstairs, and a beautiful woman with a simple dress and an proud figure came down from the stairs on the second floor.
Well, he would probably have a first-rate appearance even among mountain ghosts.
"Guys, just call me Xiao Zhao. If you want something to drink, what are your taboos... Well, Xingzhe? You're awake. This is a rare thing. Well, this old man's longevity is approaching but... slowly? That's right. It's quite strange, let me see this... Um, do you have any taboos?"
After Xiao Zhao looked at me carefully, he stroked a strand of hair behind his ear and said with a little embarrassment on his pretty face.
