There are a total of thousands of ghosts in the camp where Yin Tianchou is located. They all retain their memories of their lives and are relatively sane.
Some of them wear ancient costumes, some wear modern clothes, and some of them wear clothes that resemble the style of the Republic of China.
The young man wearing a T-shirt was scared of being chased by evil spirits in ancient costumes before. He was so frightened that he did not dare to approach those in ancient costumes.
He hesitated, but after a while, he got together with several ghosts who were also wearing modern clothes.
Those ghosts didn't look very old, and they were very familiar with each other. They all said, "Brother, how did you die?"
Hearing such a familiar tone, the young man in the T-shirt immediately relaxed a little and said, "Drown."
He also asked: "How did all the brothers die?"
"Stay up late and work overtime." "Stay up late at the Internet cafe." "Stay up late and work out..."
"Me too... Damn, stop talking. I should have known earlier that staying up late can really kill you. If you die and fall into such a strange place, I won't stay up all night even if you kill me."
Hearing this, the young man in the T-shirt nodded sympathetically.
Although he didn't stay up all night to die, if he had known that his death would be so miserable, he would definitely not have gone to Tokyo, one of the "Top Ten Criminal Holy Lands" on the Internet, to attend the Comic Con.
"Then what does this camp mean now? Everyone will live here from now on?"
As soon as he asked this question, a ghost next to him, with a face as white as paper, eyes as dark as circles, and headphones hanging around his neck, showed a very subtle expression and came closer mysteriously.
"We don't know yet what we will do with this camp in the future, but do you know who is leading the camp now?"
The young man in the T-shirt shook his head and said, "I don't know, who is it?"
The young man with dark circles coughed and looked far away. He found that Yin Tianqiu and the others were not paying attention, so he said, "One is called Xu Zhu and the other is Wang Wu."
"ha?!"
The young man in the T-shirt opened his mouth, "The same name, right?"
"Hey, I don't know if they have the same name."
There was a slightly fat man wearing a shirt next to him, his face full of excitement, and he rushed to say, "But one of them is indeed dressed in ancient costumes, claiming to be the master of the Eagle Palace of Tianshan Piaomiao Peak, and there is another one dressed in the late Qing Dynasty, claiming to be a powerful martial arts society, with a broadsword." Wang Wu.”
"A few of us were rescued by Xu Zhu. Xu Zhuzi has hair and beard and looks very old. Good guy, with a wave of his hand, hundreds of ghosts stacked up like snowballs to form a monster. He turned me into ashes with just one palm."
"This performance is much better than the original version. I don't know if it was strengthened after becoming a ghost, or is he not from that version of the world in the first place?"
Although the fat guy in the shirt is young, he is a complete fan of martial arts. Since high school, he has been discussing Jin Gu, Huang Liang and Wen with people on the forum every day, from the original article to various TV series and movie versions. He never expected that after his death, he would actually see a suspected martial arts fan. Not to mention the excitement of the characters in the world.
The young man in the T-shirt blinked and said, "You mean, these ancient people, uh, ancient ghosts, may have traveled from other worlds?"
"I think it's almost the same."
The fat man in the shirt said, "You don't know, I seem to have seen Yin Tianchou in some Zhouyi film and television drama before. He is also from the world of martial arts."
"Furthermore, he claimed to be from the Tang Dynasty, and said that he died not long ago. He doesn't look like he is from our world, does he?"
The young man with dark circles nodded repeatedly: "Yin Tianchou can shoot sword energy. Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, swish, and swish of sword energy of those bad guys. At least they will have a hole as big as a volleyball. He can also do light kung fu, and is much better than us."
"Xu Zhu and Yin Tianchou are both good people in the setting, and in reality, they will indeed save strangers like us. In this way, we might also have the opportunity to learn martial arts."
The ghosts chatted and became very passionate. They seemed to be planning on finding a time to become a disciple.
But the young man in the T-shirt scratched his hair and sighed deeply: "It sounds like the situation in this place is very complicated. Is there any way for us to go home?"
The excited discussion of the ghosts nearby suddenly dropped, and the smiles gradually stopped on their faces.
If everyone is resting at home and suddenly discovers that the martial arts on TV are real, and there may be someone nearby who can teach them how to practice martial arts, then of course they will be extremely happy.
But now that they are all dead and have fallen into such a place where evil spirits seem to be everywhere, who can be purely happy?
They don't know what's going on outside, whether there will be ghosts coming to eat them, or how they will live in the future.
If you deliberately talk about this kind of topic, you are just diverting your attention.
The young man in the T-shirt saw that they had stopped talking, and he also vaguely realized that these people had deliberately not thought about those things before, and it seemed that he had put everyone back into an uncomfortable mood with one sentence.
He felt a little sorry, but he was also uncomfortable and irritable, and he couldn't think of any way to make up for it, so he simply continued to remain silent.
This campground is huge.
It was originally a large ghost forest where horses could race. After being defeated by Xu Zhu and the others, this camp was circled.
Thousands of ghosts are scattered in small groups, with wide gaps between them.
Xu Zhu, Wang Wu, Yin Tianchou and the others were discussing matters in a corner of the camp, at least a thousand meters away from the young man in the t-shirt.
However, because the young man in the T-shirt was new here, Xu Zhu and the others were distracted by that.
Therefore, none of the words escaped Xu Zhu's eyes and ears.
However, Xu Zhu and Wang Wu were not too surprised by the "shocking" things revealed by the young man in the T-shirt.
Once they arrived, they had heard similar words before and were mentally prepared.
Secondly...
Take Wang Wu as an example. For him, in order to avenge Brother Tan, he went to assassinate the Yuan thief with whom he had a friendship. However, he died under random gunshots and discovered that the Netherworld really existed. That was enough. Outrageous.
After wandering in the netherworld for thirty years, he didn't encounter any ghosts or gods in the underworld. He just felt that his consciousness was getting more and more blurred. He was thinking that maybe the soul was scattered to the world, which was a so-called "reincarnation". .
As a result, just before dissipating, the entire netherworld suddenly shook, and he was actually thrown into a completely different vast "underworld". His mind became clearer, his ghost body became stronger, and he soon met people from different eras. The "new ghost".
After experiencing so many things, even if someone comes to him and tells him who he is, and shows him a lot of evidence, he can accept it calmly, but he will never question his own authenticity. .
The most I can say with emotion is, "The world is so big and there are so many wonders."
"Tsk tsk!"
Yin Tianqiu shook his head and said, "It seems that the place where they live must be very interesting. It would be great if I also have the opportunity to go and see it."
Xu Zhuzi smiled and said: "The prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty is absolutely novel to me."
Wang Wuze said: "The most urgent thing is to find a place to stay. Brother Tianqiu, go out and ask about the situation in the underworld. What is the result?"
"I walked around the nearest towns and caught some clever-looking ghosts and asked them about them. I finally got something."
Yin Tianqiu said seriously, "The situation is more serious than we thought. Most places in the entire underworld are relatively chaotic and cruel. Only a small half of the territory appears to be relatively stable due to the existence of the famous mountain underworld."
"The place where we are now is close to the territory of a great demon king. If we don't want to be enslaved by the demon king and turn into a blood-thirsty evil ghost, we must leave as soon as possible."
"And the nearest underworld to us is also seven hundred miles away. It is the underworld at Lotus Mountain and is run by the Guanyin Temple."
"Fifteen hundred miles away, there is another Mengshan Yin Mansion. Not far away, there is also the Yishan Yin Mansion, which is jointly run by six sects including Yimeng Academy."
"Then there is a Laoshan Hades 2,800 miles away."
Xu Zhuzi asked curiously: "We want to find a place to settle down, so naturally we should go to the nearest place, but you specifically pointed out other underworlds. Is there anything wrong with Lotus Mountain?"
"The problem with Lotus Mountain is that its territory is constantly shrinking."
Yin Tianqiu used branches to draw a diagram on the ground while explaining, "The existence form of each underworld is centered on the famous mountain in the underworld and radiates outward to a large area. Their formations have been developed through the ages. Continuous accumulation and improvement will also include all their management areas."
"However, it is said that due to a great chaos more than two hundred years ago, a hurricane in the underworld caused the destruction of many underworld sects in the territory near us. The strength of some remaining sects has also declined greatly and has failed to recover."
"Lianhua Mountain and Yimeng Mountain are like this. Their territory is shrinking, and the ghost people under their control are dispersed, and even turned into evil ghosts. Even if we go, I'm afraid it will be difficult to be accepted."
"If you really want to find a safer place, you may only be safe if you go to the territory of the Laoshan Sect."
Wang Wu added: "Two thousand eight hundred miles is really too far. Within the entire two thousand eight hundred miles, apart from Mount Laoshan, are there no other closer underworlds to choose from?"
"There may be, but currently the only one I can find that is reliable enough is Laoshan."
Yin Tianchou persuaded, "And if you rush to Laoshan from here, you will encounter a big river after passing through a land route. As long as you go straight down the river, you can reach Laoshan in three days. It may be even better than going to Mengshan." Hades is faster.”
Xu Zhuzi listened to his detailed explanation and felt that it made sense, and the camp they were currently in was originally a large ghost forest.
The entire camp's defenses are made of trees. With a slight change in technique, a large number of rafts can be made.
Wang Wu was still a little hesitant: "The river in the underworld...will it really be so smooth?"
"There is more than just waterway to Laoshan. We can explore it first then."
Yin Tianchou sighed, "I know that the words of ghosts cannot be fully believed, so I lurked and observed in those towns for a period of time, and judged based on what I observed. At least there is one thing I can be sure of."
Wang Wu asked: "What?"
"The old monster from Montenegro is so cruel."
Yin Tianchou said, "It's not far from our place, it's the City of Wasteland..."
There are rumors in the world that the City of Wandering Death was built by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva as a peaceful and happy place for the ghosts of those who died in vain.
I don’t know where this legend came from.
But in the eyes of those who truly understand the situation in the underworld, the area around the City of Wasted Death is by no means a good place to go.
It is said that since a thousand years ago, the city of Wangsi has been the territory of a great demon king in the underworld, the Old Demon of Black Mountain.
It is said that this old Black Mountain demon has ninety-nine brothers, and tens of thousands of ghost soldiers and generals under his command. All the evil ghosts living on his territory are bloodthirsty and crazy, eager to eat people.
Every time the gate of hell opens and connects the Yin and Yang worlds, the evil ghosts in the Black Mountain Old Demon's territory will be moved by the wind and rush into the Yang world to kill, suck the Yang energy, and bite the living souls.
However, these evil ghosts are all driven by the soldiers and generals of the old demon of Montenegro, and part of the resentment and death accumulated in the world will be extracted later and given to the soldiers and generals of the old demon of Montenegro.
If any evil ghost wants to resist, the mark left by the old Black Mountain demon in their ghost body will be activated, making them suffer from the pain of soul refining by the poisonous fire of the netherworld, which is extremely miserable and unspeakable.
Yin Tianchou and the others discussed it and finally decided to set off as soon as possible.
After they announced their decision, almost no one objected, and at most they just whispered secretly.
Everyone is not stupid. Yin Tianqiu and the others' abilities are obvious to all. Many ghosts can gather here thanks to their rescue. In such a terrifying environment, of course, the only way to survive is by following them.
I have to say that there are some benefits to becoming ghosts. At least their endurance seems to be much stronger than when they were alive, and they are not thirsty so easily.
As far as the T-shirt young man himself is concerned, if he walked for an hour or two while he was still alive, he would be completely exhausted. If he walked in a place with rough terrain, he would be even more tired.
But now, according to the time calculated by Xu Zhuzi, they walked for nearly three hours in one go.
In a valley, Xu Zhuzi and Wang Wu patrolled around and killed the ghosts in the valley. Yin Tianchou asked them to rest here first.
Then Xu Zhuzi and Wang Wu left silently.
Less than twenty miles away was the big river Yin Tianchou mentioned, and the two of them were going to check it out together.
In fact, among the thousands of ghosts, there are nearly a hundred people who are stronger than ordinary ghosts. However, that big river is related to their next journey of more than two thousand miles, so they have to be extremely careful.
Even if Yin Tianchou went to see him, it would not be appropriate. After all, he was still just a teenager when he was alive.
Only Xu Zhuzi, who has profound skills and will naturally die of old age, and Wang Wu, who is extremely keen and experienced after death, act together can be considered safe.
They had imagined what would be in the big river, both good and bad, but they did not expect that when they were only about three miles away from the big river, waves suddenly rose in the river.
A general in red robes and golden armor dragged the body of the disemboweled python from the river to the shore.
"You are here."
The general turned a blind eye to the two of them's alertness and chuckled, "I saw you when you were a hundred miles away. Thinking that you were going to use this big river channel to reach Mount Laoshan, I went to walk in the water first. Let’s go.”
"Sure enough, there are some evil monsters. I have eliminated all the monsters in this section of waterway for hundreds of miles, except this big snake. It tastes good. Let's ask them to come with us and have a meal before leaving."
Xu Zhuzi and Wang Wu looked at each other, both a little surprised.
Xu Zhuzi cupped his hands and said, "May I ask who you are?"
"My Yue Fei, since I am also planning to visit the Yin Mansion in Laoshan, I will give you a ride..."
Before the general in red robes and golden armor could finish speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by a shocked voice.
Wang Wu's eyes widened and he shouted: "What did you say?"
"Yue Fei?!
"
