Taboos in the Underworld: Starting from being paid a lot of money to beg for a child

"Go!"

The ghost behind urged him and pushed Mr. Chen.

The slope was very steep. The evil spirit Mr. Chen lost one of his legs and was supported by Zhang Fan. He rolled down after being pushed by them.

We ran down immediately, and Zhang Fan and Mr. Chen rolled into one of the loess pits where there were no other ghosts.

The loess pit is about three meters deep, and there are still some stumps and severed hands inside.

When we arrived at the entrance of the pit, the ghost behind us also arrived.

They pushed the remaining three of us into the loess pit without hesitation.

Fortunately, the soil in the loess pit is very soft, so we didn't suffer much damage even after being pushed down.

The loess pit is three meters deep, and there are no stairs or steps to climb up. The walls of the pit are very slippery, and it is basically impossible to climb out directly.

I don’t know what’s going on in this place. It seems like it has completely turned us back to Yang. The characteristics of the ghost are gone at all. Let alone floating, even jumping is a bit difficult.

"Why did these bastards bring us here?"

Zhang Fan looked at the pit from which he could not escape and said.

I shook my head:

"I don't know. They probably want to make some kind of deal with us."

Mr. Chen nodded and said:

"It's probably going to be handed over to the Underworld Devourers. I've been to this Underworld Road before and dealt with the Underworld Devourers. These Underworld Devourers like to collect ghosts to build their own reincarnation path."

When Mr. Chen mentioned the Underworld Devourer, I subconsciously thought of Tiedan.

Tiedan returned to the underworld when I died. I don't know if he lived well in the underworld.

He is so young, and I don't know if his ability is considered strong in this Huangquan Road.

The road to the Underworld is not absolutely safe for the Underworld Devourer.

There are often Taoists here who come down to catch the underworld-devouring ghosts.

And some people can easily kill them if they are not happy.

Especially for a ghost-eating ghost like Tiedan who has grown up in the Yang world, he might be regarded as a thorn in the side by those underworld.

"Brother, what are you thinking about?" Zhang Fan asked aloud when he saw that I was in a daze.

I chuckled and said:

"It's nothing, I just want to be a friend. You guys rest here for a while, and I'll go to the corner over there to gather some shade. Don't worry, I will try my best to rescue everyone."

"Um..."

"it is good..."

"Go..."

I walked alone to a corner of the loess pit, sat cross-legged and meditated, ready to start reciting the Yin Gathering Mantra with concentration.

The moment I sat down, a ghost quickly floated from the loess pit to the pit next door.

There was a panic and shouting over there, and then I saw him holding a ghost in one hand, floating over the pit where we were.

"How can he float?"

I'm a little confused, isn't there a rule that no ghost can adapt to?

Is it just because we new souls are not strong enough?

I gave up the idea of ​​meditating, stood up, walked to the evil ghost Mr. Chen and said:

"Mr. Chen, did you see it just now? There was a ghost floating over. How could he be floating here?"

Mr. Chen nodded and said:

"Yes, the Yin Soul just now is very strong so it can float. There is no adaptability to the Yin Soul here. It's just that the rules here are higher than those in the Yang Realm. I don't need to return to my heyday, I just need to return to fighting you. With the kind of strength I had when I was young, I can also float as I please, but my current strength has basically been devoured by your little underworld-eating ghost."

"If my strength increases to a certain level, my soul can adapt to the rules here and float?"

I asked.

Mr. Chen hummed and said, "Of course."

After hearing Mr. Chen's explanation, I immediately gained confidence, turned around and returned to the corner, and began to recite the Yin Gathering Mantra with concentration.

When I recited the Yin Gathering Mantra 55 times, the surrounding Yin Qi began to wash away my soul crazily.

Every time I finish reciting it, I feel a strong yin energy surrounding me.

It only lasted three seconds before it suddenly tightened and penetrated directly into my soul.

The Yin Qi at this time was not just as simple as washing away my soul body, but was directly absorbed by my soul body.

Substantial changes began to occur. My soul began to become a little lighter, and I felt that the power in my body was also increasing explosively.

I suppressed the joy in my heart, calmed down and continued to recite the Yin Gathering Mantra.

An hour later, I had recited it 85 times, and the yin energy surrounding me turned into an even more violent yin wind, picking up the remaining loess dust and constantly hovering around me.

After circling, they all landed directly on me quickly.

The yin energy can penetrate into my soul body, but the yellow sand cannot.

Two hours later, my whole body was covered with yellow sand and turned into a clay figure.

At this time, I was only three times away from reciting the Yin Gathering Mantra [-] times.

Because of the thick layer of yellow sand blocking it, the soul body began to absorb Yin Qi more and more slowly.

And after reciting for a long time, my soul began to become a little stiff.

I stopped thinking of continuing to chant the mantra.

Standing up, the thick layer of yellow sand on my body was shaken off. I looked at the four people who were still chatting over there. I breathed a sigh of relief and moved my hands and feet a little.

At this moment, two expressionless ghosts appeared at the entrance of the pit.

One of them pointed at Zhang Fan and said:

"Master Cha, this young male ghost is the ghost that has been transcended by Taoism."

"Ah."

Another ghost in black robe stepped down in one step, raised his hand and grabbed Zhang Fan's shoulder, and then floated out.

What makes me very strange is when this ghost called Master Cha took away Zhang Fan.

The evil ghost Chen Lao, Guan Yan and Xiao Fen were motionless.

There wasn't even a shout. They didn't start to react until Zhang Fan was taken away.

"Brother Fan!"

Shangguan Yan was the first to shout out.

By this time, the two ghosts had already left.

I quickly walked to them and asked Mr. Chen:

"Mr. Chen, what will happen if Zhang Fan is captured? When the ghost captured Zhang Fan just now, I saw that you were motionless. Are you restrained?"

Mr. Chen said:

"It shouldn't be anything like that. When trading with the Underworld Devourer, you need to test your soul first. If Zhang Fan is really transcended by Taoism, then there will be nothing wrong for the time being. If not, then he may be We were torn to pieces on the spot. As for why we were motionless, it was indeed because we were bound by that ghost."

I said oh, Zhang Fan was okay for the time being, and I felt relieved.

"Little Taoist priest, you made too much noise just now. Fortunately, no one noticed it, otherwise it would have been troublesome."

Mr. Chen continued: "How long will it take for the gathering to be over?"

"A few minutes is enough. Mr. Chen, I want to ask you, if I finish gathering a round of Yin Qi, who will be more powerful compared to the ghost called Mr. Cha just now?"

Mr. Chen shook his head and said:

"I don't know that."

I nodded and did not change places. Instead, I just meditated on the spot and continued to recite the Yin Gathering Mantra.

During the last pass, there was almost yellow sand floating in the entire pit.

It was as if all the Yin energy in this small space had been gathered by me.

Chen Lao and the three of them also showed very happy expressions.

What makes me feel even more incredible is that Huang Lao's short legs actually grew back due to the strong erosion of Yin Qi inside.

After reading it for the last time, I felt an unprecedented sense of relief.

I couldn't help but close my eyes and start enjoying it. This kind of comfort made me feel that my strength had improved several levels.

If we had this kind of strength at that time, those ghosts would have had no chance of catching us.

I clenched my fists and couldn't help but let out a roar.

I slowly opened my eyes, but after I opened my eyes, I found that the situation here had changed again.

The yellow sand and loess I originally saw was not the real yellow sand and loess.

Although the terrain here has not changed, the terrain is not made up of loess, but countless fragments of corpses.

The walls and floors were all made of broken corpses.

These broken corpses were glued together by something unknown and became as hard as iron.

And the yellow sand flying all over the sky just now is not yellow sand, but hairs of different lengths...

With my previous experience, I wasn't too surprised by this environment.

I talked about how there was loess on the Huangquan Road. It turned out that this space was made of broken corpses.

But come to think of it, Huangquan Road has been here for many years, and there are countless ghosts who have died in it.

If the residual limbs of these ghosts are always piled up on Huangquan Road, where can we still walk on Huangquan Road?

"Congratulations, little Taoist priest, you finally succeeded in gathering the Yin this time without any danger. I also took advantage of you and regained some strength. Now at least I won't hold you back."

Mr. Chen said happily.

Shangguan Yan also smiled and said:

"I also feel that I am full of strength. If I fight with them again, I will not hold back."

Even Xiaofen, who had been silent, couldn't help but say:

"Me too."

I chuckled, never expecting that one hundred and eight times of the Yin Gathering Curse would have such an effect.

This is a happy situation for everyone. If we can escape from here, our group will have more confidence in crossing Huangquan Road.

We are the ghosts who have no way to guide us.

Although most of them are abandoned by the underworld, there are also some who can be reincarnated but miss the opportunity.

I don’t know if the evil ghosts Old Chen and Xiaofen can reincarnate, but Zhang Fan and Shangguan Yan definitely have a path to reincarnation.

It's just that they need to fight for this reincarnation path.

I stood up and tried to kick my legs. My whole body felt extremely light.

As soon as he exerted force on his feet, his soul body floated directly up, and he stepped out of the three-meter-high loess pit to the entrance of the pit in one step.
