"Especially not mentioning the word short!" Wan He lowered his voice.
The little guy scratched his head, his ice blue eyes shining with curiosity.
"Why? Wouldn't it be nice to be shorter? Look at how comfortable I am. I'm so small that I don't even have to walk on my own when I'm on Brother Ming's shoulder."
Lin Ming pressed its little head and said nothing.
The little guy laughed out loud, then turned over, lying on his side and said, "Brother Ming is so good."
Wan He said angrily: "That's your brother Ming waiting for you to grow up. When the time comes, it will be his turn to lie on your back and look at the sky leisurely."
The little guy suddenly became furious, jumped up, and stretched out his paws to touch his forehead.
"No way? I'm so short, I'm sure I won't grow taller!"
Wan He's face suddenly changed drastically, "I don't want to pick up any pot, little guy, did you do it on purpose?!"
He hurriedly waved his sleeves and released ripples of spiritual energy, canceling out the little guy's voice.
The skeleton guard leading the way hid beside the flowers and plants in the corridor at some point.
Lin Ming:? ? ?
brat:? ? ?
"Senior Wanhe, the guards at Hades' Mansion are indeed very...different."
Lin Ming cupped his hands and turned to look at the Bone Guards.
"Is the word short really such an exaggeration?"
"Fuck you, Young Master, you are really a great man. I have never heard an outsider dare to say this word in the Hades Mansion." The Bone Guard was trembling all over, one of his leg bones fell apart, and his whole body fell sideways on the lawn.
Next to him, Wan He was still breathing, and continued to wave his sleeves, releasing spiritual energy to offset Lin Ming's voice.
Immediately afterwards, he placed one hand on Lin Ming's shoulder and held down the little guy's head with the other.
"I'm really sorry, I told you not to say "dwarf". You still dare to say it. You really don't know how terrifying Lord Pluto is."
"My Lord Pluto is the number one God of War in Tianyuan Continent. This Jingshan Pass has fought back many waves of attacks from outside the territory by demons. It is all due to its reputation for killing."
"It's really scary!"
The bone guard's jaw bone fell to the ground on the spot, pointing at Wan He, and was speechless for a long time.
Lin Ming and the little guy nodded repeatedly.
"You can teach me." Wan He was satisfied and released his hands.
The next second, Lin Ming jumped out, and the little guy also jumped out.
On the lawn outside the corridor, the Bone Guard reacted, dropped his jaw bone and half of his left calf bone, and rolled away from Wanhe.
Even the canary birdcage floating above Wanhe's head emitted a dark white shimmer, then turned into a ray of light and shot out to the side.
Wanhe spread his hands and frowned: "Why are you so far away?"
At this time, Lin Ming stood in the distance and waved, "As a friendly reminder, senior, you can think carefully about whether you mentioned any words when you just spoke."
"Word?" Wan He frowned deeply.
A thousandth of an instant later, his expression suddenly changed, "Fuck me!!! Did I just say the word 'short'?"
Lin Ming, the little guy, the Bone Guard, and the Canary Bird Cage all took a step back.
No one responded.
At this time, a thick shadow suddenly hit the end of the corridor.
The sky at Jingshan Pass changed instantly, and day turned into night.
Countless people looked up and saw a skeletal human face with fangs emerging from the dark night.
"Hey, don't worry, it's Lord Pluto who has come out of seclusion."
"It's okay, it's okay. You don't need to collect your clothes. It's not raining or thundering."
"It's probably because some unlucky guy made Lord Hades angry."
Such words were heard all over the streets in the city, but there was silence in Hades' mansion.
Wanhe was frightened and instantly returned to his true form - bone form.
At this time, shadows and darkness enveloped the entire corridor, and a "click-click" sound came from the darkness that could not be seen directly with the naked eye.
Lin Ming frowned slightly, unable to see through this deep darkness.
This situation is quite rare, but he is not panicked, or in other words, he does not need to be the one panicking.
"Lao Wan, you have been following me for a long time. You said something you shouldn't have said twice in a row today. You don't want to think that it was just a slip of the tongue, right?"
The magical girl's voice sounds with a strange magnetism, as if it is born with special mixing effects, and it seems to be able to infiltrate into other people's hearts, turn into a scale of judgment, and expose the deepest desires in people's hearts.
Then, a ball flew out of the darkness.
It was very small at first, and then gradually became larger, and finally it was so big that Wanga could be completely accommodated inside.
Boom boom boom boom boom…
Continuous explosions sounded inside the black sphere.
It was accompanied by Wanhe's miserable howl.
The great master of the True Saint Realm was tortured to death inside.
However, his voice was full of energy, and it probably didn't sound like his life was in danger.
Lin Ming stood there, and the little guy stood on Lin Ming's shoulders. They both looked into the deep darkness at the same time.
Can't see through, can't see through, can't see...
At this moment, a girl's slender and white feet were revealed in the darkness, wearing extremely high heels.
With a click, the black sphere exploded without damaging anything around it, leaving only a Wanhe in place.
His whole body was charred black, turned into white bones, and his clothes were in tatters. People who didn't know it thought he was completely corroded and dead.
However, this is just one of the true forms of the Bone Clan.
Seeing that Wanhe seemed to be lifeless, the little guy's eyes sparkled with curiosity, and then he summoned the scissors, flew over and poked him twice.
"Don't make trouble!" Wan He waved his hand and threw away the scissors.
At the same time, Lin Ming's mind was at work.
Based on the size of the girl's feet, I could reconstruct her approximate height in my mind within a second...
Converted to modern human units, it's about 1.35 meters.
Lin Ming touched the edge of his eyebrows and cursed in his heart:
"No wonder Pluto doesn't allow others to mention the word short in front of him. This is indeed a deep flaw!"
At this time, everything around him became dim, and then the light and shadow slowly unfolded again.
Everything around them became bright again, but Lin Ming and the little guy's eyes suddenly turned blurry.
The two of them entered a palace at some point.
The demonic girl's voice sounded: "You are not allowed to stand up, you are only allowed to sit and talk to me."
The words have fallen to the ground, just like the words are spoken.
Lin Ming found that his buttocks were firmly pinned to the futon.
Yes, he was sitting not on a chair, but on a futon, but the girl opposite it was sitting on a towering bone throne.
The girl has a good face, her thin lips are crystal clear, as if they are glowing with light, and her two eyes are big and lively, which seem to contain the stars and the moon, and are full of curiosity about the world.
She has long black hair like a waterfall, wears a jet black dress with black woven flowers around her neck, jet black high-heeled leather sandals on her feet, and a huge black scythe hanging behind the throne.
The whole person shows a gothic lolita style!
It wasn't until this moment that Lin Ming and the little guy looked at each other and the two of them realized what was going on.
Master Pluto is actually a girl, not as majestic as imagined.
At this time, Wanhe, who had turned into a bone form, was also placed firmly and secretly on a futon not far away.
He took the initiative and said: "Let me tell you Lord Pluto, this Young Master Lin Ming is definitely a rare genius in the world."
"It doesn't matter if you are a genius or not. Only if you can understand the secret scroll left by the lady is valuable."
The Goth Loli waved her hand and sat on the large high-backed throne, leaning to the side and supporting her chin with one hand.
"You must have heard Wanhe give an overview before you came here."
"Then I won't waste any more nonsense and just talk to you quickly."
After a slight pause, Hades raised his hand and stretched out three green jade fingers.
Then, a talking hat suddenly floated next to him.
Hat’s voice is gender-neutral:
"First, you don't have to worry too much. No matter whether it can be cracked or not, I will not make it difficult for you. Of course, you need to be careful, because you may encounter some more dangerous problems when cracking the Book of Heaven."
"Secondly, everything you see here and in the book, it is best not to tell other people. Of course, it is not an absolute prohibition, but the more people you tell it, the more harmful it will be to you and those people. Your relatives and friends are not very good, so don’t ask more questions as to why.”
"Third, this is just a small deal. I will give you different rewards based on how well you crack the book."
The Goth Loli on the throne frowned slightly.
The talking hat trembled up and down, as if a little scared, and hurriedly added: "There will be certain dangers when entering the Book of Heaven, so our Hades Mansion has prepared a reward for the young master in advance."
Immediately afterwards, several treasure boxes floated out and were arrayed in front of Lin Ming.
From left to right, the materials are bronze, silver, gold, platinum, and colorful gemstones.
Anyone who participates can get the items in the bronze treasure chest.
Subsequently, the items in the three treasure chests of silver, gold, and platinum are judged according to the progress or contribution of deciphering the heavenly book.
However, these are not the most important.
Lin Ming's eyes were immediately fixed on the treasure chest of colorful gems.
The little guy did the same thing. He gently pushed Lin Ming's earlobe and whispered, "Brother Ming, brother Ming, does this match the two pieces you are wearing?"
"Yes, these two are parts of the Holy Cloth. The corresponding parts happen to be the shoulders and wrists. As long as you get these two pieces, you can get the complete upper body set of the Holy Cloth." Lin Ming nodded.
"Wow, maybe there will be special effects then." The little guy's eyes were filled with stars.
At this time, the talking hat said again: "It seems that Mr. Lin Ming wants to take away the two items in the colorful gem treasure chest."
Lin Ming said bluntly: "Yes, I do need it."
"That's no problem, but you have to decipher the entire book to take it away. At this point, you may not be able to do it even if you spend your whole life."
Wan He also offered words of advice:
"Yes, yes, I know your boy is a genius, but don't be arrogant. This is a sacred book left by the most stunning and beautiful woman in the past. It cannot be easily cracked. The goal can be set a little lower. So that you don’t get in too deep.”
"I will try my best to do what I can." Lin Ming smiled.
Pluto sat at the top, keeping a smile on his face, but his eyelids were drooped.
I have seen too many young people, although they all have the appearance of being more mature than you and me, and the height that makes people jealous.
But it seems that because of this, they don't know how high the sky is, and they believe that they are the first person in the destiny, and they must be the one to unlock the celestial book left by the female concubine.
In fact, sometimes, it does feel a bit funny.
Pluto's little Loli shook her head incomprehensibly, and then said: "You, it's useless to talk more, just go in and enter the Book of Heaven."
After speaking, she waved her cuffs, and a golden bamboo book floated out.
Kah, kah, kah...
The bamboo pieces were opened one by one, and eighteen characters were written on each piece, but the number of bamboo pieces seemed to be endless.
Lin Ming's eyes gathered together and focused on a certain part of the bamboo piece.
There is a word "quiet" written there.
His divine writing suddenly floated out, and then aroused the mighty Hongmeng Purple Qi, covering his whole body.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Ming's consciousness floated out and turned into a condensed soul.
call out!
A new world gradually emerged before Lin Ming's eyes.
This place was so familiar to him because he had seen it not long ago.
Everything around is filled with divine writings. There is no up, down, left or right in this space, and it seems that the passage of time cannot be felt.
There are densely packed divine texts all around, large or small, dim or bright.
Lin Ming stretched out his fingers and tapped the center of his eyebrows lightly.
"When I was looking at the divine text list, I seemed to see the same thing..."
As the memory gradually revived in his mind, the previous experience of viewing such a world seemed to have produced some magical changes.
Three big characters suddenly appeared in front of Lin Ming.
"Heaven, earth, people."
Each word was hundreds of times larger than his body, and the three words emitted a different light.
The golden color of the sky character, the silver color of the earth character, and the ink color of the human character.
These lights all branched out into a small fork, floating in front of Lin Ming, as if waiting for his choice.
Lin Ming followed his heart and reached out to touch the golden shimmering fork.
At the same time, this scene was presented on the golden bamboo book left by the female concubine.
"No, little friend Lin Ming is too confident in himself, how can he directly choose the most difficult Tianzi?" Wan He held his forehead, speechless and choked.
"Hehehe, this shows that when someone selects people based only on talent but not on character, it is really not reliable enough."
The speaker was a light gray skeleton with green will-o'-the-wisps glowing from his eyes, and he was wearing a coarse linen garment.
He sat on the ground with his legs curled up, his back hunched, and he had the air of an old scoundrel about him.
Hearing this, Wan He was unhappy and looked over.
"Liu Hui, you old man can't speak, so don't talk nonsense. The little friend I invited is very talented, and you can't just guess."
Liu Hui spread his hands and said, "To be honest, I am always so annoying. I can't help it. I am Lord Pluto's loyal subordinate. I must help Lord to be wary of those unreliable rats."
Wanhe raised his finger, "You..."
At this time, Pluto on the throne bent his green jade fingers and flicked twice in succession.
call out! call out!
Two blasts of energy hit Liu Hui and Wan He, causing pain all over their bodies and making them unable to speak.
"We have guests at the moment. Don't you feel embarrassed? I still need to save face."
The little guy grinned and waved to Pluto's little Lolita.
There was a light in Pluto's little Loli's eyes, but she looked away arrogantly and ignored it.
The little guy scratched his head and was about to speak, but something happened on the golden bamboo book in the corner of his eye.
That was Lin Ming triggering the golden light of the sky, which was transforming into the Hongmeng Purple Qi.
This scene immediately attracted the attention of Pluto, Wan He and Liu Hui.
