As more and more people jumped into the underworld, more and more ghosts started to appear on the water surface. In the end, the entire water surface was filled with pale ghosts, and some small boats were shaking and not moving at all, causing the ghost souls on the boat to be carried into the water.
Some of them were already dead in their hearts. They would die in peace after falling into the water. They would lie in the water without moving. If they had any thoughts, they would desperately swim to the shore, trying to escape to the mortal world.
It was a strange thing, the ghosts that were lying still and were rushing out of the water did not care about them, and directly started to move around non-stop.
Not everyone who had entered the yellow spring water had the murderous aura that pervaded the body of the first burly man, and not all of the ghosts had the strength of his, so many of those who wanted to escape were not able to escape and were dragged to the bottom of the yellow spring, probably to be found a substitute.
The number of people who could be reincarnated was limited. After all, only those who were pregnant could be part of it. Whether it was in the human world or the animal world, six paths of reincarnation had to have a life, no?
However, there was a slot that couldn't be empty. Since the one that should have been reincarnated had been pulled down, the one who came up, no matter what, would have been pulled down.
In fact, I seriously suspect that Ten Halls Neither King is both lazy and bored. The reason for being lazy is that you guys are too lazy to judge those ghosts who are looking for a substitute, you guys should seize the chance to be reborn, and not seize the opportunity to continue living. Just wait for those who are reborn to give up their chance, then they will randomly pick a lucky person from the Yellow Springs to be reborn.
How much had he saved?
What was boring was that they had already arranged everything so that they could see everyone's life at a glance. In reality, it was just like when you read a novel and saw through all the details with a glance. There was no suspense at all.
However, once a substitute was reincarnated, that would be a variable. It would be able to provide some suspense and stimulation to the Ten Halls Neither King and the Yin Deviations that could see through their plans.
Then again, those who had fallen into the water were splashing quite heavily at first, but after a few were pulled down, the others resigned themselves to their fate and remained in the water, not daring to move at all, faking their deaths once again.
The first man had already landed on the shore. He was standing in the middle of the green and oily mandala flower like a bunch of leeks, sprinting away at full speed.
Those ghosts who did not dare to move on the boat were excited, but after a while, the leek suddenly grew long, instantly wrapping around the big man until he became a dumpling. When the leek was released, the big man had already disappeared without a trace, not even a speck of dregs left, only the manyflower seemed to have turned a little greener.
"Let's go!" The Messenger didn't care about any of this. He swung his whip and threw the fallen ghosts onto the boat. He shouted, "Don't look back on the Road to River Styx. If you look back, it will be empty."
The Messenger's voice was filled with an endless vicissitudes of life. When the ghosts heard his shout, they all became lifeless again.
The surface of the Yellow Springs began to return to its peaceful state. The originally fish-like ghosts had all disappeared.
Not long after, the boat docked and we arrived at the Bridge of Helplessness. Looking at the old woman who was guarding the bridge with her head bent over, we exploded with anger.
I think that there will be many trials and tribulations in the Infernal Realm, but I think that with our strength, we can completely endure it.
But this Grandma Meng's Elixir is like a sleeping pill. After drinking it, forget about the mission, I guess we'll be like the brainwashed ghosts in front of us. We'll have to wait until we're reincarnated before we have a clear memory.
Sister Hong also frowned. Before you drank Grandma Meng's Elixir, every ghost you could mess around with would be like a robot that didn't write a program, completely blank. You can't do anything.
We were all stunned, no one could have thought that the Director Ding's layout would be so complete, to the point where they even found the Soul Controlling Chain, but we weren't told how to avoid Grandma Meng's soup.
Furthermore, from the looks of it, he seems to be planning on letting us follow the ghost's instructions step by step. In that case, when will we be able to find Jiang Jiusheng's ghost?
What made it even harder for me to understand was that since he had already crossed the Bridge of Helplessness, it also meant that he had drunk Grandma Meng's Elixir.
So what do we do with him?
When we get on shore, we immediately surrounded Director Ding and asked him what was going on.
Even if we guessed that the Art of Longevity they wanted was wrong, they still wouldn't have the truth about their history after drinking Grandma Meng's Elixir.
"We don't need Grandma Meng's Elixir." The Director Ding smiled at us and pulled us into a queue.
"What's going on?" I pulled at the Grey Immortal and softly said, "Could it be that the Underworld has already become this corrupt? Even Grandma Meng's Soup can be bought with Huang Ling's money? "
"How would I know?" Grey Immortal also had a depressed face as he whispered to me, "Now do you know why from ancient times until now, all cultivators are not willing to interact with temples?"
I shook my head. Indeed, I hadn't heard of any dynasties having a huge deal with cultivators.
"Because these people all want to cheat." A look of disdain flashed past Grey Immortal's eyes, and he said solemnly: "We have devoted ourselves to cultivation, but what about them? They're all using money to buy it. This is completely cheating. "
Errr —
In this age, the rich relied on cheating by 70% to rely on background, while the poor relied on luck by 70% to rely on death.
No matter where you were, money and power were things you had to do.
Director Ding's background was official, look at that young man, he had directly bought a huge pile of Huang Ling money for the Messenger. After seeing his background, he didn't even need to drink Grandma Meng's soup.
But since we can stop drinking Grandma Meng's Elixir, then maybe Jiang Jiusheng, the person Director Ding brought us to find, didn't as well?
However, if he did not drink it, it meant that he had probably used the power of the organization organized by the Director Ding.
When he entered the Underworld, it wasn't a natural death at all. It was because he thought of the Ten Halls Neither King's memories of his three lifetimes and the Longevity Method, that he entered the Underworld like us, pretending to be dead.
That's why the Director Ding and the rest decided to find us and bring Jiang Jiusheng back.
Understanding this point, I suddenly felt my entire body turning cold. If the organization backing the Director Ding has already planned this out, then the chances of us escaping are very small.
After I told this thought to Grey Immortal, his eyes revealed a pondering look. He quickly climbed onto Big Sister Hong and softly said a few words.
When he crawled back up again, he whispered to me, "Don't worry, it's easy for us to escape. They thought they were trapping us, but in reality, they're just two cat hairs, so there's nothing to be afraid of. "I'll see what I can do later. The place where I can find that soul is the best. Even if I can't find it, Big Sister Hong, Old Black and I will think of a way to snatch that Jiang Jiusheng's soul."
I nodded my head. I never would have thought that since Li You's didn't die, how could Jiang Jiusheng, who had the same Longevity Spell as him, die? From the beginning to the end, this was just a matter of borrowing Ten Halls Neither King's power.
However, since we're here, we're not afraid. We can also venture into the Underworld.
According to Gu Zu, when I wake up, the evil ghost that was filled with trees and flowers, and the vengeful spirit in the entire Yellow Springs, will be mine the next day. However, I still haven't woken up, and I haven't used any of the things she talked about.
After arriving at the Underworld, I might be able to look back at three lifetimes and recall the things that happened before.
When I understood this, I wasn't afraid. I was a little excited.
Seeing that the line was about to reach us, Director Ding quietly pulled me to the front of the line, and then suddenly threw a piece of talisman towards the sky and shouted: "Bai Xiang, reincarnated Qin Chenmo is here, I request to see Ten Halls Neither King, please lead the way."
Once the talisman was thrown out, golden light immediately flooded the area. An enormous white snake turned over the Yellow Springs, and the faint sounds of a tiger's roar could be heard.
Even Grandma Meng was holding a bowl of Grandma Meng's Elixir as she quietly looked at the white snake in the air. She then raised her bent waist and pulled up her hood with one hand, revealing a face that looked as if it had aged for ten thousand years. She said to me, "Qin Chenmo, drink the soup."
"Since you know that it's Qin Chenmo, and you still let her drink the soup, aren't you afraid that the souls of the dead will be used by her?" Director Ding pulled me back and stared at Grandma Meng with a serious expression.
I could only shake my head and smile bitterly. This is what Director Ding said. You don't need to drink Grandma Meng's Soup, this is just borrowing my tiger skin!
