I open a bookstore in the human world

Xie Daonian's attitude was calmer than Song Lan expected. He was even calmer than Song Lan who had just learned the truth. He just lowered his eyes slightly, looked at the floating tea in the tea cup in front of him, and did not speak.

Song Lan was extremely careful even her hair. He stretched out his hand, passed under the table, held Xie Daonian's palm, and asked softly, "Are you okay?"

He wasn't sure if Xie Daonian could accept this Arabian Nights remark, even he subconsciously wanted to resist at first.

Not everyone wants to be a superhero who saves the world. As the saying goes in Hollywood movies, "With great power comes great responsibility." He doesn't have the great ambition of Jing Tianwei, he just wants to manage his own small world. .Regardless of whether he is a human or a ghost, all his efforts are actually only for himself, not for the common people in the world, which sounds far away and great.

Xie Daonian's palm was as hot as ever, so hot that he was almost scalded, but he didn't take back his hand, but just clasped his palm tightly, wanting to give him some comfort, even if it was a trivial comfort.

Xie Daonian held his hand with his backhand, met his eyes calmly, a very shallow smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "Don't worry about me."

Even in this situation, the first thing he thought of was his own feelings.

Song Lan's eyes were a little hot, and he felt an urge to cry. He wanted to question God, why he chose Xie Daonian, and why it couldn't be someone else.

As if he had guessed what Song Lan was thinking, Xie Daonian stretched out his other hand to stroke Song Lan's hair, and said with a light smile, "Someone must do this."

"If only you were an ordinary mortal..." Song Lan lay listlessly on the table, letting Xie Daonian's slender fingers comb his hair.

"If I were just an ordinary mortal, you and I would never have met." Xie Daonian comforted him softly with the same curvature of his mouth, "In fact, it's a good thing to think about it the other way around. I'm not an ordinary person. Does it mean that we can be together for a long time without worrying about what will happen after my death?"

Song Lan was startled, blinked and blinked: "It's roar..."

Xie Daonian, who had successfully diverted Song Lan's attention, flashed a complex look in his eyes, his fingers moved lightly across his lover's face, and finally stopped on his lips, rubbing his full lips with his fingertips, like treating a treasure in the world .

"Besides, Xia Lan also said, it's just to strengthen the seal, it won't be too dangerous."

"By the way, why are you so calm? As a party involved, shouldn't you be panicked when you hear this kind of thing?" Song Lan took the initiative to kiss Daonian's finger.

Xie Daonian said calmly: "Shouldn't I have guessed this a long time ago? The inexplicable golden light on my body, as well as the monster I met at your house in the underworld, now have an explanation."

"I should have guessed it when I went to check the files before." Song Lan was sullen, biting Xie Daonian's provocative finger with his mouth open, unwilling to use force, and only licked lightly, "If you are ordinary, why don't you let us check the files? .” Now he has a special feeling of being on a pirate ship.

Xie Daonian's eyes darkened after his finger was bitten, and his voice became hoarse: "When are you going to leave?"

Song Lan knew that what he was asking was about going back to the underworld to strengthen the seal. He felt a headache when he thought of this, let go of his mouth, and said listlessly, "Xia Lan said that the sooner the better, give us three days to deal with the affairs of the human world, and we will be on time in three days." Come pick us up."

"That is to say, we still have three days to be alone?" Xie Daonian raised his eyebrows slightly, and there was a dark tide in his eyes.

"Yes, there are only three days left..." Song Lan sighed, suddenly felt something was wrong, and opened her eyes wide, "What are you doing?"

Xie Daonian was using the finger that Song Lan had bitten to unbutton the top of his shirt. With a light flick of his finger, the button burst open, revealing a piece of fair and delicate skin.Facing Song Lan's question, he approached his face with a smile that was not a smile, sprayed his hot breath on his lips, lowered his head, held his lips tightly, and said vaguely: "Since time is running out , then we must not waste every minute and every second."

The good days are short, and the spring nights are difficult to pass, so you have to seek pleasure as early as possible.

***

Three days later, Xia Lan showed up on time to pick them up to go to the underworld.

Even though she had mentally prepared in advance, Song Lan was still taken aback when she saw the scene in front of her——

At the moment, there are few ghosts on the bustling Yin-Yang Road. The manjusawa on both sides of the road grow wildly upwards, blooming all over the sky, like a raging flame, and dye the sky above the head into a strange red. Reminiscent of the color of blood.

Xie Daonian frowned slightly, turned to Song Lan, and asked hesitantly, "It doesn't seem like this last time?"

Because it is the first checkpoint leading to the underworld, although the Yin-Yang Road cannot be called extremely lively, it is still full of ghosts. Some spirits trying to sneak into the underworld... Unlike at this moment, when I occasionally saw one or two ghosts, they all walked in a hurry and looked strange.

When I came last time, only half of the manjusawa on both sides of the road were open, and the other half seemed to be asleep, and the other half was silent, not blooming, only leaves.Song Lan said that this is the special feature of Manzhushahua: the flowers bloom without leaves, the leaves grow without flowers, and the flowers, leaves and leaves never meet, which is called "the other shore flower".At this time, not only are all the manjusawa blooming, but they are also blooming so coquettishly and lushly that it makes people feel uneasy for no reason.

That doesn't sound like a good omen.

Song Lan also looked at Xia Lan with puzzled eyes, hoping that the senior could say something.

Xia Lan sighed softly, with a serious expression on her face, and said seriously: "You have all seen that the underworld is not peaceful anymore."

Song Lan frowned slightly: He had indeed heard that this manjusawa has the ability to predict danger, and the more critical it is, the more beautiful it will open, so it is often seen in places of death.He had only been in the underworld for a short time, and he had never seen such a scene, but he didn't need to think too much about it, it could never be a good thing.

"The situation in the Broken Abyss is not optimistic," Xia Lan said bitterly, "After you left last time, more and more Chaos creatures have escaped from the Abyss and are doing evil everywhere in the underworld. The citizens have been attacked, and now the underworld is not safe."

Song Lan's complexion is not very good: no matter what, he is considered a citizen of the underworld. Hearing that his homeland is in trouble, no one will be happy.

"That's why Master Jiudian hastily sent his daughter to find the third prince," Xia Lan turned to the expressionless Xie Daonian, with a solemn tone, "We originally planned to wait for your strength to fully recover, third prince, before coming to you. But time can no longer be dragged on. Since the Yin-Yang Dao is farthest from the Shattered Abyss, the impact is relatively light. The further you go, the more serious the situation..."

With that said, the three of them had already arrived at the gate of hell.There were twice as many ghosts guarding the gate than last time, and they checked the pass Xia Lan gave several times before waving to let them go.

Xia Lan explained in a low voice: "In an extraordinary period, all parts of the underworld have entered a first-level alert state."

Song Lan nodded, expressing her understanding, and at the same time had a deeper understanding of the current situation in the underworld: It seems that Xia Lan is not exaggerating, and maybe the actual situation is even worse.

The Infernal Hell and Feng where the Broken Abyss is located are in two different directions. Before, there were no ghosts who dared to approach here. Since the Broken Abyss had abnormal movements, it became even more deserted. They didn't even see a ghost dressed as an ordinary citizen.

"This place has been under martial law. Unless there is a pass signed by Yan Luo himself, no one can approach here." This is the third time they have encountered the inspection team. actually accept the inspection.

Xie Daonian was speechless all the way, his face became more and more serious.

Song Lan clenched Xie Daonian's hand with some worry, as if she wanted to give him some spiritual support and comfort.

Xie Daonian was taken aback, his slightly pale lips gradually turned red, and the temperature in his palm was hotter than usual, making Song Lan's palm feel hot for a while, but he didn't take back his hand, but clenched it even tighter.

The eyes of the two people intertwined, the eyes were entangled and affectionate, this look seemed to last for ten thousand years, there was nothing in the world, only each other was left.

No need to speak, everything goes without saying.

Xia Lan coughed lightly and stopped in her tracks: "The Infernal Hell has arrived."

Song Lan came to his senses and wanted to withdraw his hand, but Xie Daonian didn't let go, Song Lan had no choice but to let him lead.

The two raised their heads and looked at the Nether Hell burning with eternal flames. Even if they were still some distance away from it, they could feel the heat blowing towards them.

Infernal Hell, also known as Avici Hell, is the lowest level of Eight-Hot Hell. Those who are imprisoned here are those who committed heinous crimes during their lifetime. They committed unforgivable sins. suffering.

There was a smell of burning and stench mixed in the air, and screams and moans full of pain rang out one after another in my ears. Even Song Lan, who claimed to have a good psychological quality, felt a layer of goose bumps on his arms at this moment, and his back trembled. Chills.

People really can't do evil, there will be retribution after death.

"The original hell was destroyed by monsters from the abyss, and this hell was rebuilt later," Xia Lan explained lightly from the side. As the secretary of King Equality who is in charge of the endless hell, she has long been used to this scene.

Song Lan couldn't help being dumbfounded: Because the most evil souls in the world are imprisoned in the Infernal Hell, it is the most solidly built among the major hells, and it can be said to be almost indestructible.How terrifying is that abyss monster, it is still in the abyss, it has such power.

It is conceivable that if it really escaped, it would cause terrible consequences to the Three Realms.

Thinking of what kind of monster Xie Daonian was about to face, Song Lan's face turned pale.

"Where is the Broken Abyss?" Xie Daonian, the person involved, was calmer and asked Xia Lan calmly.

Xia Lan glanced at him appreciatively: Although the Third Prince hadn't recovered his memory, he already had the demeanor of being calm in times of crisis.

"Come with me," Xia Lan said.

The further you go, the more pronounced the stench in the air becomes, making you sick.Even Xia Lan couldn't help covering her nose, and raised her eyes to take a peek at Xie Daonian. Seeing that his face was expressionless and his brows were not wrinkled, she couldn't help admiring him: The third prince really deserves to be the third prince, and he can endure what others can't Tolerance can achieve what others cannot achieve.

Smelling this smell, Song Lan didn't feel very good at the moment.He felt that his eyes could not be opened due to the pungent smell, there was a bitter taste in his nose and mouth, and his throat was dry and uncomfortable, but there was nothing he could do.

Suddenly, Song Lan felt a warm current flowing into his left hand, rushing to the whole body along the meridian, and was wrapped in a warm breath from head to toe, and his spirit was lifted.He raised his head in astonishment, and met a pair of eyes as deep as the sea. The owner of the eyes looked at him unabashedly, with his lips slightly parted, and asked softly, "Do you feel better?"

Song Lan was shocked, and suddenly thought of something, her eyes widened, and she asked incredulously, "You, did you remember something?"

Because the souls and souls scattered in the human world have not been completely repaired, Xie Daonian has not recovered his previous memories, and he does not know how to use and control his ever-increasing abilities, which is why the scene where his body glowed golden appeared before.But now, Xie Daonian is obviously using his own ability consciously to drive away the adverse reactions for Song Lan.

Hearing this, Xia Lan was also taken aback, stopped and looked at Xie Daonian.

Xie Daonian's lips were pursed into a straight line, and the arc of his jaw was smooth and resolute. He was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly, stretched out his finger and pointed to his temple, and said in a calm voice: "I remember, I have been here before."
