Soon at night, as soon as the midnight bell rang, Si Heng activated the magic circle and opened the gate of hell.
Although I was mentally prepared, I still felt nervous when I saw the black vortex door opening in front of me when the formation was activated.
I sat cross-legged in the formation and clenched the yellow talisman in my hand.
Lin Xiaoqiu sat next to me. There was a circle of red thread wrapped around our wrists. The red rope connected us, with a golden bell hanging in the middle.
Lin Xiaoqiu holds a ghost-killing mahogany sword in one hand and a black donkey's hoof in the other.
Seeing the black vortex door open, her eyes shone with uncontrollable excitement.
"Last time we just went to Huangquan Road. We didn't cross Naihe Bridge, so we didn't count as going to the underworld. This time it's different. We have to go into the underworld to go back to Yangxiang, and wander around in the underworld. It's exciting just thinking about it! Just imagine who would dare to go there. Is there a commotion in the underworld? Xiao Ning, we are definitely two warriors, maybe we can leave a name in history!"
It's hard to say how to leave a name in Qingshi, but if we don't do it right, our names will be left in the book of life and death.
Lin Xiaoqiu's brain circuit is different from that of ordinary people. I ignored her excitement and looked up at Si Heng and said, "We only have one hour?"
Si Heng nodded, "When the time is up, I will ring the bell. Regardless of whether you get Yangxiang back or not, when you two hear the bell, immediately return along the red line. Remember that the red line tied to your wrists must not Cut it off!”
"I understand this," Lin Xiaoqiu said, "Xiao Ning and I left our bodies and entered the underworld. Our two bodies remain here, and this red line is the connection line between body and soul. If this line is broken, Then our souls will not be able to come back, that is, we will really die and become two lonely ghosts in the underworld."
"Yes," Si Heng came over and stood in front of Lin Xiaoqiu and I. He lowered his eyes and asked me, "Have you memorized all the maps I drew?"
He drew a map of the underworld and marked the location where Huiyangxiang grew. Lin Xiaoqiu and I can find Hui Yangxiang as long as we follow the map.
I nodded and said seriously, "I remember everything." I kept every detail of the map firmly in my mind, and I didn't dare to be careless about this.
Si Heng nodded with satisfaction, and then warned, "Recite the magic formula after me in a while, and the two of you will be able to leave your body. The formation seals your Yang energy, so that the breath of your soul is no different from that of the Yin soul, and it is even more To facilitate your activities in the underworld.
But this kind of blinding method can only deceive some underworld officials with lower official positions, so you two should still be careful when traveling in the underworld. If you encounter black and white impermanence, bull-headed and horse-faced underworld officials with higher cultivation levels, you must avoid them.
They will see through your identity, and you are definitely no match for them, and then you will be in trouble. "
Lin Xiaoqiu and I both nodded and said we remembered.
Si Heng lowered his head and looked at me with deep black eyes, "Little Tangning, I'm waiting for you to come back."
After saying that, Si Heng came around behind us.
He sat down cross-legged, raised his hands, put one palm on the back of my heart, and the other palm on Lin Xiaoqiu's back, and then said in a cold voice, "Follow me and say, the universe is one, and the luck is closed..."
Lin Xiaoqiu and I recited sentence after sentence.
At the same time, Sun Fei, who was sitting cross-legged in the center of the formation, slowly floated into the air. She had her eyes closed, but the third eye on her forehead was widened.
The third eye stared at the black vortex spinning in front of her. As her third eye exerted force, a gap opened in the middle of the black vortex, as if a black door had been opened. Light shines through the cracks.
"Get into formation!"
After reciting the incantation, as Si Heng gave a sharp shout, I felt my body suddenly lighten up, as if I had a balloon tied to my body and was suspended by the balloon to fly up.
I was startled, and when I looked down, I realized that I was really flying!
To be more precise, my soul flew out of my body and was floating in the air like a balloon, swinging from side to side.
"Oh, let me go!" Lin Xiaoqiu exclaimed in shock, "Si Heng, I can't move! I can't even control my body, how can I help Mr. Liu find Yang Xiang?"
While talking, Lin Xiaoqiu moved hard with her hands and feet as if swimming, but she wasted a lot of strength and her soul only moved forward a little.
I also looked at Si Heng anxiously.
The soul has no weight, and this erratic feeling is like going to outer space. Lin Xiaoqiu and I couldn't even walk normally.
Si Heng said, "Don't worry, it will be fine when you get to the underworld. Hu Xiaoyi, send them both through the door."
The little fox standing outside the formation heard the order and jumped up immediately. He flew over, stretched out his front paws, gently pushed on my back, and pushed me forward.
"Little Fairy Girl, you are the first disciple I have found. You must not die. You must come back."
There was a cry in the voice, which made me feel moved inside.
The fairy family in my hall is very caring and protective of me, which probably means that I am a qualified fairy girl.
I was about to persuade him not to worry, but before I could say anything, I heard him continue, "I have just entered the hall not long ago. If you die, I will have a reputation as Ketima. This reputation It doesn't sound good, and it will affect me in finding my next younger brother."
I,"……"
The emotion in my heart instantly burst like a bubble and disappeared without a trace.
I rolled my eyes, "Hu Xiaoyi, don't worry! I will definitely come back alive!"
"Hehe," Hu Xiaoyi said with a smile, "Xiao Xiangu, I'll wait for you to come back."
As soon as he finished speaking, he pushed hard with his front paws, and he pushed me into the vortex door.
The moment my body flew through the door, gravity hit me, and I fell from mid-air to the ground.
As soon as I sat down on the ground, Lin Xiaoqiu flew into the door and then fell from the air.
She was more skilled than me. She stabilized her center of gravity and landed smoothly on the ground.
"Wow!" After standing firm, she looked around with a look of surprise. "It's a pity that I can't bring my phone in. I really want to take pictures of this place. This is the real underworld!"
I got up and turned around to look around.
No wonder Lin Xiaoqiu was so shocked, this place was completely different from the underworld in her imagination!
When people think of the underworld, they think of ghosts, hell, and all kinds of cruel punishments. But what I saw in front of me was that none of these terrifying things were there!
This is an ancient city, and it is also a very large capital city, very prosperous.
Underfoot is a road paved with bluestone bricks. The road is wide and flat. On both sides of the road are various shops open for business. There are also many stalls on the roadside. People are coming and going on the road, and there are constant sounds of hawking and talking.
These people were wearing clothes from all eras. Ancient and modern clothes were mixed together. Looking at these people, I had the illusion that I had mistakenly entered a film and television city.
"If it weren't for the will-o'-the-wisps burning in the sky, I wouldn't believe this is the underworld. I would suspect that Si Heng sent us to the wrong place." Lin Xiaoqiu whispered to me while looking around.
I glanced over my head.
The sky was black, with scarlet flames burning at intervals, and the light from these flames illuminated the underworld.
The people living in the underworld are ghosts. They are afraid of the sun, so they use these flames to replace the sun.
I withdrew my gaze and said to Lin Xiaoqiu, "Don't look at it. We don't have much time. Let's go find Yang Xiang quickly."
