This road felt longer than the previous one. We walked on it for a long time without seeing the end.
This is just a tomb passage. How could such a long road be built? This does not lead to the tomb, but to the underworld.
The more I walked, the more I felt that this road was the road to hell, eventually leading to hell.
Although I have never actually walked through Huangquan Road, I feel that the real Huangquan Road is nothing more than this, right?
"This road never ends!" I was driven crazy by this depressing environment, so I had no choice but to ask.
Xuan Mo nodded, he also felt something was wrong.
"Someone has set up a trap to prevent us from getting out smoothly!" His answer reminded me of the thrilling scene on the train, and I was hit by a wall at that time.
"Is it a ghost hitting the wall?"
Xuan Mo shook his head, and seeing his answer, I felt relieved.
"This is more terrifying than a ghost hitting a wall." My heart froze when I heard this, so it was a bit serious.
But he said it was scary. I don’t know where he was.
Xuan Mo turned his other hand out, and another cluster of fireballs appeared out of thin air above his palm, which was about the same size as his current fireball.
He threw a fireball in his hand far away, and the fireball flew in the air. It flew very far, and the fireball turned into a very small bright spot until it disappeared. The road ahead that was illuminated in this moment continued into the endless darkness.
"Sure enough, this road has no end. You just listened to me. Let's take another route. I guess we will reach our destination early by now." I complained.
"Don't be naive. Do you really think that road will let you go safely?"
I don't quite understand what he said, don't I? Of the two roads, one must lead to the real destination. Otherwise, what's the point of that road's existence?
Xuan Mo stretched out his hand and drew in the void, and a bright white light appeared at the tip of his finger.
The light moved with the strokes of his fingertips. Seeing his flowing movements, it felt a bit like a fairy.
I was temporarily attracted by his elegant movements. Although I didn't know what he was doing, the way he danced was beautiful and in sharp contrast to the silence here.
After Xuan Mo finished the last stroke, the meteor-like silver light gradually disappeared. The pictures just now seemed to exist only in my imagination. Did I really see them with my own eyes?
I have some doubts.
When he landed as lightly as a feather, we heard the sound of gongs and drums in the distance.
This voice sounds a little familiar. Isn't it the sound of joy? This is the kind of music played when someone in the village gets married.
But how can there be joy here?
I looked at Xuan Mo, wanting him to give me an explanation, but Xuan Mo kept looking away and ignored me.
He just crossed his arms over his chest and leaned against the wall.
After a short effort, a small dot appeared in the farthest darkness, and then the small dot slowly expanded, and finally I could see it clearly.
I saw the blood-red wedding sedan they were carrying. There were five or six people in front of the wedding sedan. It was a team that played music and sang joyfully.
The strange thing is that there is no smile on the faces of these people. Their faces are very stereotyped, as if they are wearing masks. Every face was pale, so white that there was no trace of blood. Only the lips were red, as if they could drip blood.
They were getting closer and closer to us. Seeing this group of people welcoming the bride and their weird makeup, I was a little scared and hurriedly hid behind Xuan Mo.
The team came closer, but they couldn't move forward. They seemed to be stuck here.
I secretly poked my head out and looked at the strange wedding team. At this time, the joy of their playing also stopped, so I didn't need to torture my ears for the time being.
An invisible wall appeared out of thin air in front of these people, and it was this wall that blocked them all out.
When their bodies come into contact with this wall, silvery white light spots will light up on the invisible wall.
I am familiar with this light. Those silver streams of light that Xuan Mo painted in mid-air just now are the light that lights up on this wall. What Xuan Mo did just now was to block these things.
An old lady came out of the procession. She had a bandage on her head and a pair of mandarin ducks embroidered on it. This was similar to Grandma Liu's outfit in Dream of Red Mansions.
Also, the clothes she wore were not the front-open cloak of our era. The split buttons looked a bit like the dresses worn by Han women in the Manchu and Qing Dynasties.
She also looked pale, and her lips were as bright red as if she had eaten a dead child. But there was still a smile on her face, but the smile was a bit stiff and she didn't look like a living person.
"Hello, my lord!" She leaned slightly towards Xuan Mo, her movements were inconsistent and her body was stiff, as if all the parts were rusted.
Xuan Mo ignored her, "Grandma Liu" still refused to give up.
"Thank you, sir, for helping our master find his bride!"
The woman continued talking. I could understand every word of what she said, but what did it mean when put together? Why can't I understand at all?
"Grandma Liu's" head suddenly turned to my side. She looked at me. Her face was still cold just now, but now her mouth actually opened.
Is she laughing? Worse than crying. I would rather not see her smile like this.
Xuan Mo said nothing, just looked at her coldly.
"The auspicious time has arrived, I hope the bride will get on the sedan chair!"
"Grandma Liu" looked at me and pointed at the wedding sedan next to me and said.
What is a bride? When she said this, why did she look at me, as if she said I should get on that sedan.
I looked at Xuan Mo in confusion, wanting him to give me an explanation.
But Xuan Mo still maintained that posture, looking very indifferent, looking at him as if he knew everything.
Thinking back to what the woman said to Xuan Mo just now, did he bring me here on purpose?
I seemed to understand all of a sudden why Xuan Mo had to bring me, a burden, after traveling thousands of miles away. He could have been here in the blink of an eye; why he could find this place so easily; why everyone here knew him. , call him sir.
Judging from these conditions, Xuan Mo brought me here because he wanted to sell me in exchange for his own benefits?
After thinking about this, I wanted to run away. I turned around and was about to run away, but Xuan Mo's hand had already grabbed my sleeve. I subconsciously opened my mouth and bit down on his arm with all my strength.
He didn't say a word and held on. It was really uncharacteristic of me to treat him like this. Could it be that he knew he owed me something, so he did this?
Then he grabbed me and threw me to the men.
"I've given it to you! Get out of here."
