Huangquan Roadside Inn

Bai Ci returned the salute to Chang Xi, but his eyes still fell on Bai Xi.

The brim of his hat just covered the imprint between his eyebrows, without the fiery imprint, Bai Xi's appearance was less glamorous, and more delicate and handsome, just like the boy next door.

Looking at Bai Xi's appearance, Bai Ci couldn't help covering his lips with a smile, leaning into his ear and whispering: "Are you having trouble again?"

"Do you think I look like an unhappy person?" Bai Xi raised his eyebrows and said.

But the way Bai Ci and Bai Xi whispered to each other was particularly dazzling in Chang Xi's eyes, especially the way Bai Xi raised his eyebrows, which made Chang Xi want to go up and fight him.

Thinking back to when they first started working as ferrymen, Bai Xi was not the best, he only belonged to the upper class, but he was rather likable. Many seniors liked him very much, and Bai Ci was one of them.

Among the ferrymen, Bai Ci is the most gentle and polite, but he has few real friends. Chang Xi likes Bai Ci, so naturally he will find ways to get close to him.

But he never thought that Bai Ci's eyes were always on Bai Xi, but he turned a blind eye to Chang Xi's overtures. Even the other ferrymen said that Bai Ci had been in Hades for almost 1000 years, and he only treated Bai Xi alone. It's different, others say that they are not jealous are false.

"That's good." Bai Ci saw that Bai Xi's expression was not unhappy, so he was relieved a lot.

Bai Xi folded his arms and said helplessly: "It's still a while before Mingjun's interview, the hall is too stuffy, I'll go out for a walk."

"I'll reserve a seat for you, sit next to me." Bai Ci smiled, extremely gentle.

"Thank you, Brother Bai Ci." Bai Xi glanced back at Chang Xi's appearance, raised his eyebrows provocatively, and then walked out of the main hall with a pair of long legs.

Once out of the main hall of the Hall of Eternal Life, all the oppressive atmosphere dissipated. Bai Xi looked at the water corridor outside the Hall of Eternal Life with nine twists and eighteen bends, and walked over, but seeing that there were still water lilies planted under the corridor, he just walked over. Can not help but be a little curious.

The Palace of Eternal Life where Mingjun lives is indeed at the source of the Wangchuan River. The water in the Wangchuan River is weak, even if a feather falls on the river, it will not float.

But the Hall of Eternal Life is clearly the source of the Wangchuan River, but it can still grow water lilies, which really surprised Baixi.

Bai Xi walked along the corridor to the pavilion on the bank, but an invisible wall of light blocked him outside. Bai Xi frowned slightly, thinking that this was probably the enchantment set up by Ming Jun for the apse, so he also I will not go any further.

It's just that the moment he turned around, a black shadow flashed past him. The aura carried by that black shadow didn't seem to be the smell of ghosts in the underworld, nor did it look like a soul, but rather like a demon...

Baixi immediately became vigilant, there is still some distance from the main hall, so he must be able to call other ghost messengers as long as he shouts, so he is not afraid.

It's just that the aura gradually weakened and disappeared without a trace. Only then did Baixi heave a sigh of relief, and didn't go back the same way, but just stretched his arms and jumped towards the main hall.

But when Bai Xi leaped, a black shadow surrounded him with lightning speed, and then Bai Xi only felt a heavy blow on the back of his neck, and his body fell in disobedience, falling into the head of His Highness Changsheng. in the river.

The river submerged Bai Xi's body, but it also awakened him in an instant. The feeling of his body gradually sinking aroused his desire to survive. Thinking of a monster breaking in outside the Hall of Eternal Life, Bai Xi couldn't care less about the pain in the back of his neck. Holding his breath, he struggled upward with all his strength.

Finally, Baixi jumped out of the water. At that moment, there was no sense of suffocation, and there was only a new life, but what he saw in front of his eyes was not the scenery in front of the Palace of Longevity.

The river here is cool, and exotic flowers and plants are planted on the bank, and a little bit of light shines through the leaves of the dark tree.

Bai Xi swam to the shore vigorously, twisted the water on his clothes, and looked around: "Where is this? No, I have to go back to the Palace of Eternal Life. A demon has broken into the Hades."

Bai Xi jumped up again, but he didn't want to just leave the ground, because of the environment here, he didn't listen to him and fell to the ground.

"Where is this place? I can't even use my mana." Bai Xi couldn't help feeling a little flustered. Thinking that he couldn't do anything at this moment, he was extremely anxious, so he had to look for a way out on foot.

Pushing away the many exotic flowers and weeds, a tree-lined path finally appeared in front of Baixi. He didn't have time to think about it, walked up the path, looked around again, and knew that there was a corner of a house at the exit of the tree-lined path , Bai Xi immediately ran over.

The independent pavilions and pavilions are covered with veils, and the water under the pavilions rises into smoke.

Bai Xi became more and more puzzled, how could there be such a place in the underworld, where mana is not needed, but the building is just like a fairyland, it is really strange.

"Yes... is there anyone?" Bai Xi called out in a low voice, "Is there anyone?"

Bai Xi stood outside the veil and waited, but after waiting for a long time, no one responded to him, and there was a trace of anxiety on his face: "Is there anyone, I'm lost, how do I get to the Hall of Eternal Life, I still have It's urgent, it's a big deal to be late."

But those who responded to Baixi were still extremely silent, without the slightest sound.

Bai Xi didn't give up, and wanted to use his mana to jump up again, but he still couldn't move. Just when he was turning around in a hurry, he heard a sound coming from the water, so scared that Bai Xi immediately opened the veil and hid in In the pavilions and small pavilions.

Through the vague veil, Bai Xi saw a person gradually stand up from the smoky water, with wet black hair hanging down his back.

"Ah." Bai Xi accidentally sneezed, and when he looked up again, he found that the person who came out of the water was gone. Bai Xi rubbed his eyes and looked carefully, but there was still no one.

The heart in Bai Xi's chest was beating non-stop, and he quickly lifted the veil to take a closer look, but there was still no one there.

"It's over, what place did I break into, why... why is it still haunted." Bai Xi was a little flustered, but the moment he turned his head, he was so scared that he fell to the ground with a mother's cry, and almost lost his consciousness .

Bai Xi fell to the ground, looking at the man standing in front of him with a pale face.

The wet black hair is scattered on the shoulders, and a silver-white mask covers the forehead and the face on the left side, and the painting on the mask is the blooming Bana flowers on both sides of the Wangchuan River, which is coquettish and strange.

The pair of eyes under the mask were particularly deep. He stared at Bai Xi in front of him for a moment, stretched out his hands and gathered the skirt of his clothes to cover most of his chest that was exposed before, and walked up to Bai Xi with his long legs, condescending and oppressive. Feel full.

"You are so brave, you dare to break into the Palace of Longevity." The man in front of him leaned down slightly, stretched out his hand and gently lifted Bai Xi's jaw, and even lowered his voice a little, attacking Bai Xi with every word and every sentence. In Xi's heart, Bai Xi's tension increased.

"I... I didn't do it on purpose." Bai Xi quickly explained, and then asked cautiously: "By the way, this is still the Palace of Eternal Life, why can't I use my magic power?"

"Compared to not being able to use mana, you should be more concerned about how I will deal with you." The man squeezed Bai Xi's jaw, and Bai Xi shrank back in pain, and he didn't have time to think about why the other party claimed to be me. , hastily said:

"I came to the Hall of Eternal Life only after being summoned by Lord Ming, and... moreover, it seems that there are not only ferrymen, but also demons in the Hall of Eternal Life. I... I was pushed into the water by him just now, and I got up here. "

The eyes under the man's mask sank slightly, he let go of Bai Xi's jaw and stood up, looking down at him: "You said, there is a demon in the Palace of Eternal Life."

"That's right, I found him, that's why he pushed me into the water." Bai Xi looked at the man in front of him and nodded repeatedly.

The man looked down at Bai Xi, touched Bai Xi's forehead lightly with his fingertips, closed his eyes to feel carefully, and then opened his eyes to look at Bai Xi: "It seems that you are not lying."

"I'm sure I'm not lying." Bai Xi caressed his chest, calmed down his frightened heart, quickly got up from the ground, and asked cautiously: "Well, I can't find the way out, can you You can't take me out."

The man gave Bai Xi a sideways look, and then stepped out of the pavilion covered with veils, but stopped after going out, and Bai Xi quickly understood and followed.

After passing the tree-lined path, a series of doors appeared in front of Bai Xi's eyes. He followed the man's pace and passed through the doors.

"Qi Mingjun, the time has come, it's time to go to the front hall."

As soon as he stepped out of the door, a cold male voice sounded in front of him. Bai Xi paused and looked up at the back of the man in front of him in surprise, but he didn't want to meet the eyes of the person who spoke. Respectful, turned into surprise, and then heard:

"You dare to break into the Palace of Longevity, what crime should you deserve!"

"That's all." As soon as the man finished speaking, Ming Jun's deep voice sounded, and Bai Xi immediately felt that he was spared, caressing his chest, but heard Ming Jun say again:

"Take him out and hand him over to Yan Luo, and let him guard the door at the Huangquan Inn."

Bai Xi choked on his own saliva, and quickly and cautiously replied: "Ming...Ming Jun, I have already guarded the gate at the Huangquan Inn."

Mingjun paused slightly, and his voice was cold: "Are you proud?"

"No." Hearing Ming Jun's words, Bai Xi couldn't help but feel a little guilty. Even though his back was turned to her, Bai Xi could still feel his cold gaze.

"Luo Feng, take him out and let the Underworld be on guard, there are monsters intruding." Ming Jun immediately ordered, and after Luo Feng took the order, Ming Jun disappeared before their eyes.

Bai Xi was amazed, but when he saw Luo Feng's gaze, he immediately nodded, not meeting his eyes that were holding back his anger:

"Please, Master Luo Feng, send the humble job out."

"Let's go." Luo Feng said coldly, and then led Bai Xi to disappear in the back hall of the Hall of Eternal Life.
