Chapter 63 Underworld

Chapter 63 The Underworld Zhou Mengyao said: "You can't say that. I believe that there is indeed an opportunity here. The opportunity to become an immortal mentioned by Su Yuanzai does exist, but we can't grasp it."

Qi Xuansu laughed dumbly: "What's the difference between this and nothing?"

While speaking, Qi Xuansu felt that the surrounding space had changed again. The Yang Qi quickly receded, and the power of Yin Qi began to grow.

If the Yin Qi in the Dudu Mansion is roughly equivalent to the periphery of the Ghost Kingdom Cave, and the Yin Qi on the city wall is equivalent to the palace area as large as the Ghost Kingdom Cave, then the Yin Qi at this time is equivalent to the Blood Lake as large as the Ghost Kingdom Cave, that is The core area where Dailiu is located.

Qi Xuansu was very sure that the underworld was close at hand.

At the same time, mist also appeared on the city wall. No gates, no ground, nothing could be seen. I could only barely see the square inch of land under my feet.

Zhou Mengyao grabbed Qi Xuansu's hand without hesitation to prevent the two from getting separated.

Qi Xuansu subconsciously broke away and wanted to take his hand out.

Zhou Mengyao scolded softly: "It's not like we haven't held hands before. I haven't said anything yet, but you are being pretentious."

Qi Xuansu did not break away and let Zhou Mengyao hold his hand, but he thought in his heart: "Can this be the same? You looked like Qi Haoran at that time."

But he had no choice, and he also knew that Zhou Mengyao's approach was right. God knows what the mystery of these fogs was. Maybe these fogs were the culprit that caused time confusion. If they were really separated, they would probably not be able to find them back.

Under the huge pressure of the external environment, all internal struggles can be put aside, and survival comes first.

Therefore, the harsher the environment, the simpler people's hearts are. If we are not united, we cannot survive, and we have no intention of engaging in internal strife.

Fighting against the sky, before fighting against the people, one can only defeat God and gain the right to survive, then have the opportunity to fight against the people and strive to get ahead. In this way, the two walked side by side for who knows how long, Hand in hand, the road under our feet, the fog in front of our eyes, there is no end.

How long have we been gone? "

Qi Xuansu couldn't help but ask.

In fact, Qi Xuansu didn't expect Zhou Mengyao to give him an answer. He was still counting the steps at first, but gave up inexplicably halfway. It wasn't that he gave up subjectively, but it was like he was in a daze, and then he couldn't remember the specific number. Even the experience just now has become blurry, as if he had had an erotic dream without trace, which was very strange.

To Qi Xuansu's surprise, Zhou Mengyao replied: "I just experienced a time distortion, so I can't be sure how far we have gone, how long we have gone, or even where we are at this time. Going forward or retreating.”

Qi Xuansu was silent.

Zhou Mengyao didn't say anything anymore, but still held Qi Xuansu's hand.

As for Li Yuanjing, he no longer knows where he went.

That's all. Qi Xuansu also clearly sensed that when walking in the fog, in addition to Zhou Mengyao beside him, there were some other "fellow travelers" who, like the two of them, were walking along the road under their feet. Go forward.

Because of the obstruction of the fog, only a vague black shadow can be seen, appearing and disappearing. I don't know if these black shadows are the legendary "shadow soldiers", or the silhouettes left by people in the past or the future. I don't know when they appear out of thin air. , I don’t know when the branch disappeared out of thin air.

Qi Xuansu adhered to the practice of turning a blind eye and not hearing, and did not explore the truth. These black shadows did not move in any way, which was just a matter of course.

Maybe these dark shadows are the shadows left by people who walked through this city wall in the past year, or they may be the shadows projected in advance by people who will walk through this wall in the future. Who can tell clearly.

Finally, after an unknown period of time, maybe just a few days or maybe decades, the fog dissipated and the city wall came to an end.

A city of Wei appeared in the sight of the two people. To use an old-fashioned description, it looked like a giant beast in the dark. The city gate was like the giant beast's open mouth, waiting for some people to surrender. Snare.

This city is exactly the same as the Cangyun Castle in the Yang world. It is the Cangyun Castle in the underworld. This long city wall is like a bridge, a long bridge that does not connect to the world or the ground. It connects the two Cangyun Castles of Yin and Yang. Only because of the connection and support of the city walls, Cangyun Castle in the underworld can stand in the void and will not fall into the bottomless abyss.

Above the city square, the word "Cang Yun" stands out.

The clouds are in the sky, and the sky is above.

Zhou Mengyao let go of Qi Xuansu's hand and looked at Cangyun Castle in the underworld.

Black is the only color here, but the shades of black are different. Instead, the outlines are outlined through the shades, allowing people to see the whole picture at a glance.

This castle seems to stand at the end of time. It is difficult to imagine what Li Yuanjing had in mind to spend a thousand years building such a city here.

Is this the wisdom of three thousand years? Qi Xuansu said: "I have already reached the underworld, but because it is not the real underworld, but a fragment of the underworld, it is still within the bearable range."

Zhou Mengyao suddenly said: "You should have brought that ghost girl. When she got here, she was like a fish in water."

Qi Xuansu said nothing and walked forward.

The door of Cangyun Castle in the Underworld was tightly closed. Qi Xuansu tried to push the door, but with all his strength, the door only made a dull sound. Zhou Mengyao also walked over: "Together."

Qi Xuansu nodded, and the two of them were each responsible for a large door and pushed hard.

The rumble of the door opening was heard far away in the dead silence of the underworld, and the city gate was finally pushed open through a gap, allowing only one person to enter sideways.

The two of them entered it one after another, their moods became inexplicably low and gloomy, and their expressions became very serious.

The special environment created by a large amount of Yin Qi has begun to affect the state of mind of the two of them. The fear and loneliness brought by this dead silence and emptiness seem to have piled up into a hill, weighing heavily on everyone's heart here. This Not a place to stay "Let's go."

Qi Xuansu walked in first.

Zhou Mengyao followed closely behind.

As far as he could see within the city, there was not a single person, not even a ghost. Qi Xuansu hesitated for a moment: "Li Yuanjing lied to us?"

Zhou Mengyao stretched out his hand to feel the yin energy around him: "It's hard to say now, but the moon is out."

Qi Xuansu looked up after confirming the certificate.

I don't know when a moon appeared above the head, but the light was very weak, far from fully illuminating the city, and even just dispelled a little darkness around the moon. Qi Xuansu frowned: "When did a moon appear? Just now It was still dark outside the city, with no moon at all.”

Zhou Mengyao joked: "It seems to be the special moon of Cangyun Castle in the underworld."

In fact, it is not difficult to understand that the moon exists in the underworld, because among the priesthood of the moon gods, there are priests such as death and the kingdom of the dead. It can be seen that the lunar moon is originally linked to the underworld. Qi Xuansu looked at the dim moon and always felt that this moon It's very false, just like the sun seen in the world, more like an eye.

In other words, is "Heaven" always watching this underworld Cangyun Castle? Qi Xuansu withdrew his gaze and began to carefully observe the Cangyun Castle in the underworld. There was no fog covering the city, and the moonlight had some effect. He really found something different. The tall watchtower was gone.

There is a watchtower in Yangshi Cangyun Castle. Li Yuanjing flew out from the watchtower to fight Zhou Mengyao. Now that the watchtower has disappeared, there must be something fishy.

Qi Xuansu and Zhou Mengyao looked at each other and walked straight towards the Dudu's Mansion. However, just as they were approaching the Dudu's Mansion, many black shadows suddenly appeared on the originally empty street. They were twisted and uncertain, barely humanoid, but they could For sure, this must not be a human being.

I think they were probably the "yin soldiers" mentioned by Li Yuanjing.

In fact, Qi Xuansu has never quite understood. These "things" are obviously not people. They can be called "shadows", "shadows" and "ghosts". Why do they have to be called "yin soldiers"? But he soon understood.

These black shadows can actually make human voices and seem to be talking.

"Hungry!"

"So hungry!"

"No one has been here for a long time."

"Every day we build the city wall, when will it be finished?"

"I miss my mother-in-law."

"I thought I heard the sound of the city gate opening just now."

"You heard it wrong."

"probably not."

"Then go and take a look."

A dark figure left "everyone" and "swam" toward the city gate.

Qi Xuansu and Zhou Mengyao hid in the shadow of the building and restrained all their auras.

When the shadow "swam" to a place not far from where the two men were hiding, it seemed to have noticed something, and it stopped unexpectedly, still twisting and twisting.

After a moment, the black shadows slowly gathered into a graceful circle, giving up the previously indistinguishable mix of male and female, and replaced it with a soft and delicate female voice, saying: "Excuse me, is someone... there? At this moment, Qi Xuansu felt a chill running down his spine.

This reminded him of a story he heard as a child.

It is said that there was a scholar who lived and studied in an ancient temple. At night, when he was enjoying the cool air in the yard, he suddenly heard someone calling him.

He agreed, and when he looked around, he saw a beautiful woman's face exposed on the wall, she smiled at him and then disappeared.

He is very happy.

But the old monk who came to talk to him at night saw through the trap and said that there was something evil in his face and he must have met a "beautiful snake".

This is a monster with the head of a human and the body of a snake. It can call people by their names. As soon as Shang agrees, it will come to eat the person's flesh at night.

The black shadow at this moment is somewhat similar to the legendary "Beauty Snake".

Naturally, the two of them could not agree vocally.

At the same time, the voice continued to ask "Is there anyone there?" and kept repeating it. But the voice gradually became a little impatient, a little more anxious, greedy and impatient.

Qi Xuansu and Zhou Mengyao continued to hold their breath and concentrate, and couldn't help but look at each other again.

Without cultivation, it seems that there is no confidence.

Finally, the voice lost all patience and came closer to where the two were hiding.

"Then I'm coming."

"I'm really here."

"Hehe, I'm here."
