Are you afraid of the dark?
You are a majestic Fairy Chixia in the Heaven Realm, and your cultivation is unfathomable. Are you telling me that you are afraid of the dark?
The corner of Jiang Xiaobai's mouth twitched, but she also understood that this Fairy Chixia was not a simple thing, and she was not big-assed and brainless. She seemed to feel that this lynx was already very dangerous.
What I am doing now clearly shows an attitude that I am relying on you. You can take me with you wherever you go.
The bobcat only glanced at this action, apparently not caring.
The group of people began to walk towards the end of the abyss, and the lynx walked at the end. It showed no expression, as if observing something.
Jiang Xiaobai walked in the front. He didn't dare to be careless. He also knew that this place was very strange. Those who walked in the front were undoubtedly cannon fodder, helping others.
"Looks like I have to find a chance to go alone." Jiang Xiaobai secretly thought in his heart, and at the same time he unfolded his artistic conception of mountains and rivers to connect the earth.
In fact, the luminous pearl in his hand meant little to him. He was surprised to find that his method of connecting the earth's veins was very effective in this abyss.
He could vaguely feel that deep in the abyss, there seemed to be crows wailing, which was a bit disturbing.
I don’t know how long I have been walking, but the abyss seems to have reached the end, as if there is a ladder to heaven, and I don’t know where it leads.
Unexpectedly, for some reason, Jiang Xiaobai felt that the "Mountain and River Canon" was throbbing in his body, as if he had some kind of reaction, and there were faint threads of clouds lingering in the "Mountain and River Canon".
Jiang Xiaobai was surprised.
This prodigal thing has not moved for a long time. I ate the elixirs and spiritual fruits that I peeped from Xiaoyao Mountain before. This thing didn't move, it was very arrogant.
But at this moment, there was a feeling. It seemed that this area was indeed not simple.
"What are you looking for in this area?" Jiang Xiaobai suddenly asked Fairy Chixia.
"According to the notes written by our ancestors, it seems that there is a lost ancient city here, buried deep underground, but our ancestors have never found it, which is a pity." Fairy Chixia said bluntly.
She seems to be a reliable teammate and knows everything.
Moreover, she seems to know more. She should be well-read, and even knows about such a secretive race as the Moonlight Clan, and she knows that the lynx comes from the underworld.
The underworld? I just don’t know what kind of world this Nether World is, but judging from the current distribution of this continent, it should be one of the three thousand small worlds.
Jiang Xiaobai pondered.
Then he suddenly stopped.
But I saw a ladder appearing in front of me, extending to no one knows where.
He was surprised that there was a ladder here. It seemed a little dilapidated. The ladder had a sense of being in disrepair and was very vicissitudes of life.
He used his artistic conception to sense mountains and rivers, and there was no danger.
He pulled Li Furong and quickly walked up the ladder to heaven. Fairy Chixia followed closely behind, and even the people behind him also quickened their pace.
Finally, after boarding the ninety-nine ladders, the front suddenly became clear. This was a platform standing in the abyss.
But I saw a majestic archway in front of me.
However, it was very broken, and half of the plaque fell to the ground. There were words on it, but they were covered with dust, and the fonts were very weird, like some kind of seal script.
Many people boarded the platform and saw the archway.
There is a very cold atmosphere here, and it seems that there are countless innocent ghosts surrounding it, which is creepy.
"This place is so weird. Do you recognize the words on the plaque?" Jiang Xiaobai turned to Li Furong and asked.
"I don't know, it's some kind of ancient font, but I've read all the unique copies of Dengtianjie, and I've never known this type of font." Fairy Chixia said.
This sentence is very arrogant.
After reading all the unique copies of Dengtianjie, we can see how rich the background behind Fairy Chixia must be.
"The last word seems to be the word 'Guan'. The first word is very dilapidated and can no longer be seen clearly." Li Furong suddenly spoke.
Jiang Xiaobai was startled, Li Furong actually knew this font?
"Sixth sister, you... do you know her?" Jiang Xiaobai was surprised.
"Let me take a look first." After saying this, she walked over and stood in front of the plaque. She stood for a long time, sometimes frowning in thought.
"It is indeed the word 'Guan'. I have seen this font in an ancient scroll of Sanqingguan and studied it." At this time, the young Taoist priest Qingye of Sanqingguan said.
Some people were curious and approached the plaque to observe it carefully.
"It must be an abandoned ancient city. This should be the entrance, a certain pass." Mr. Yu also said.
At this time, the lynx suddenly bypassed everyone and walked towards the pass first.
Someone saw this and followed him.
The bobcat obviously knew this place. It walked in first and didn't need anyone to help it.
"We..." Fairy Chixia looked at Jiang Xiaobai with a questioning look.
Jiang Xiaobai was silent for a moment.
Later, the young Taoist Qingye from Sanqing Temple also walked into the archway.
"It's a certain type of font from ancient times. My brother once brought back half a volume of ancient books from the Immortal Town. It was this type of font. At that time, he used Taoist secret methods to observe and decipher some of them. I happened to be around at the time and also recognized some of this type of font. ." Li Furong spoke.
"Taoist secrets? The little Taoist priest just now also knows this font. Is it possible that this abandoned ancient city is related to Taoism?" Jiang Xiaobai guessed.
"It doesn't look like it. It seems to be just a certain font, like the writing of a certain era. It doesn't belong to a certain school." Li Furong said.
The Sixth Sister is not simple either. She seems to know a lot of things. She once said that there are some things that are meaningless to tell Jiang Xiaobai now and may lead to death.
Jiang Xiaobai was a little helpless. Are they all curled up like this?
"Let's go in and have a look too!" Jiang Xiaobai said.
He used his artistic conception of mountains and rivers to confirm that there was no danger, but this place was too weird, and he felt like he was in the Netherworld.
Entering this pass, there is an iron cable bridge, which is rusty and badly weathered.
The bobcat had already crossed the chain bridge and disappeared.
"What is the origin of the Netherworld?" Jiang Xiaobai suddenly asked Fairy Chixia.
"It is also a realm of the Three Thousand Realms, but there are very few human races in that realm. Most of them are monsters, ghosts, and demons." Fairy Chixia said.
Jiang Xiaobai understood.
He stood in front of the iron cable bridge, using his artistic conception of mountains and rivers, and felt that the water rolling under the iron cable bridge had an endless murderous aura and the atmosphere of ancient vicissitudes.
Crossed this chain bridge.
Suddenly, a plain appeared, bare and bare for thousands of miles, exuding a fishy wind. Occasionally, there was only a rotten body with only a skeleton left, and it was blown precariously by the wind.
Miserable, desolate.
I don’t know how long I have been in this land for a long time. Maybe I was a genius before my death. I was able to reach this place, but I just fell and was destroyed in the dust.
Somewhat desolate and tragic.
There is an immortal flag planted upside down on the ground, rustling in the wind, but it still cannot withstand the ruthless marks of time. It is weathered and stands incompletely on this vast land.
Jiang Xiaobai was suddenly startled.
This place was so familiar. He suddenly remembered that in the "Canon of Mountains and Rivers", he had seen himself walking across the abyss, walking thousands of miles across the red land, with a flag planted upside down on the ground.
Is it similar to the scene in front of me?
As if guiding him from somewhere.
What will happen after this red earth?
As Jiang Xiaobai and his party moved forward, Shanmao no longer knew where he had gone, and the little Taoist priest Qingye had also disappeared.
Behind him are Fairy Chixia, Young Master Yu, and the masculine woman named Xue Qing, as well as several passers-by, A, B, Bing and D, with Young Master Yu.
Suddenly, on the vast land, there seemed to be thunder.
At the end of the earth, there seemed to be a monster with three heads and six arms, running wildly on the earth.
Everyone was startled, slightly frightened, and ready to fight.
However, it seemed to be just an obsession, making unconscious movements.
Suddenly, a shadow jumped into the air and roared towards the sky.
It looks a bit like a pig, but it is huge, with a round head, a pointed mouth, a mouth full of tusks, and green hair all over its body.
Which version of the green-haired monster is this?
Jiang Xiaobai was surprised. It was still just an obsession, not an entity. After the thing shot up into the air, it seemed to be unwilling to give up, and then lowered to the ground.
"This thing looks like a living creature." Jiang Xiaobai was speechless. He thought of the ferocious beasts in myths and legends.
"What creature?" Li Furong asked.
"Bo'er elephant." Jiang Xiaobai said, "It looks like a pig, with a huge body, a round head and a sharp mouth, full of tusks, and green fur. It's not a Bo'er elephant. It is said that this thing was specially raised by the managers of the underworld. There is a huge golden cage in the Hall of the King of Hell, in which a hungry elephant is usually kept. When the King of Hell is judging a case, if he encounters an evil spirit whose crimes are so heinous that even hell cannot tolerate them, he will be sentenced to a beast. To punish him, throw him directly into the cage of the Bo'er elephant. The Bo'er elephant will bite the evil ghost to pieces like a hungry tiger, and then eat it with relish..."
As Jiang Xiaobai said, both Li Furong and Fairy Chixia felt creepy. This is a horror story.
"Which goddamn scholar blind chicken wrote a fantasy novel, which is so weird that it infiltrates people. It's interesting that the king of hell judges the case. Is this king of hell an official position similar to a county magistrate?" Mr. Yu suddenly asked.
Jiang Xiaobai was startled and said: "How ignorant are you that you don't know about the King of Hell? You don't know about the Underworld?"
"The Underworld Division, isn't it the city god of each place, with both civil and military officials under his command, and the subordinate officials, who perform the duties of rewarding good and punishing evil in the underworld? How can there be such an official position as the King of Hell?" Master Yu said.
Jiang Xiaobai suddenly turned to look at Li Furong and Fairy Chixia, and said, "You don't know the Ten Palaces of Yama or the underworld?"
"For thousands of years, the people in charge of things in the underworld have been the city gods of various places, aren't they? And the people in charge of the city gods of various places are the righteous gods of the world who have been ordered by the dynasty. I have never heard of the Ten Palaces of Yama and the King of Hell." Li Furong spoke.
Fairy Chixia also nodded.
"Do you know the bull-headed horse-faced one, and the black and white impermanence?" Jiang Xiaobai suddenly said.
Everyone shook their heads and looked at Jiang Xiaobai in confusion.
This heaven and earth don’t know the king of hell in the underworld?
Jiang Xiaobai's expression suddenly changed. He remembered the majestic archway from before, and also thought of the plaque.
He suddenly looked at Li Furong and said, "Tell me, on the archway we passed before, was the third character on the plaque the word 'Guan'?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" Li Furong asked.
"It's okay, I just want to say, is it too late for us to go back now?" Jiang Xiaobai said with a bitter smile.
"Go back? Where are you going? That archway?" Li Furong asked.
"Otherwise? It's more than half a step before the gate of hell." Jiang Xiaobai cursed and said, "Damn it, we must have walked a few kilometers!"
More than half a step before the gate of hell.
Jiang Xiaobai suddenly seemed to understand that the archway and the pass were exactly the so-called must-pass places to the underworld - the Gate of Hell.
