Chapter 174 Continuing the story of the young man
Yun Lingyuan sat on the ridge of the high city lord's palace, with Bilingqin lying in front of her, gently plucking the strings, and what came out was a requiem for repairing the soul...
The requiem is played and the yin and yang eyes are opened.
Yun Lingyuan then saw many half-demon souls floating in the sky above the ruined Yuan City. They rose to the sky and saw their own corpses. They were all confused and dazed, until ghosts, gods and black and white impermanence emerged from the ground, bringing them with them.
They leave here.
She played her piano and watched one soul after another disappear in front of her, and the sky above Yuan City became increasingly empty.
There is a black ghost floating in the air supervising the work of the black and white impermanence under his command. There must be too many people dying in this city all of a sudden, and the management of the underworld has to be alarmed. Maybe they don't care about the death of these people.
Is it reasonable? They were just worried about what might happen if too many half-demon souls appeared together, so they needed an extra person in charge.
The black ghost god had been paying attention to Yun Lingyuan for a long time. Seeing that the work of collecting souls had come to an end, he couldn't help but float in front of Yun Lingyuan and said:
"I heard that Requiem repairs the soul very slowly. If you play it like this, the soul will be gone before it can be repaired."
The reason why Yun Lingyuan is still calm and composed until now is because he firmly believes that his Requiem can have miraculous effects.
Requiem is awesome, it can repair even the broken soul.
When Yun Ling Yuan first started, he originally wanted to collect and lock the broken souls with a soul-locking bag. This would ensure that the souls would not dissipate twice. In that case, it would not matter if the repair speed was a little slower.
But the problem is, after she opened her yin and yang eyes, she couldn't even find half of Ye Ming's broken soul, so how could she gather his soul?
She placed her only hope in the Requiem. The Biling Qin was an extraordinary thing. Its sound could penetrate anywhere and reach every broken night soul.
But what this ghost said made Yun Lingyuan's heart skip a beat.
The scattered soul is originally in a state of dispersion, but Requiem's gathering and repairing effects don't take effect so quickly, and it really can't keep up with the speed of dissipation every minute.
Bi Ling made a "touch" sound, and the strings were broken. Bi Ling is an artifact that blends with the soul. In principle, it is just a phantom of spiritual power, not an entity. Naturally, there is no collapse. But now one of the strings is broken. This only means that
A string in Yun Lingyuan's heart broke.
When the ghost saw this, he knelt down and said, "I have a way to help you, but you have to listen to me tell a story. How about it?"
"You speak and I listen."
He didn't know the importance Ye Ming held in her heart. She would be willing to trade it with her life, not to mention listening to stories.
The ghost and god appeared in physical form, and turned out to be a boy of about sixteen or seventeen years old. He was dressed in black, his skin was as white as snow, and his eyes were as bright as stars. He looked like a beautiful boy. If he hadn't seen him emerge from the ground with a group of black and white impermanence,
Harvesting Soul would never have thought that he was a person from the underworld.
He sat down on the ridge about one meter opposite Yun Lingyuan, squinting at her with a smile:
"Have you ever heard of the story of the Spiritual King and the Saint?"
Yun Lingyuan answered honestly: "I've heard a little bit, but very little, and what's more, I only read unofficial rumors, which are unfounded and cannot be trusted!"
The young man asked again: "Did you know that Pluto was once the guardian of the saint?"
Yun Lingyuan said: "I know a little bit from hearsay, but I'm not convinced."
Talking to ghosts and gods was the first time she experienced it in her two lifetimes. In this world, there is heaven above, underworld below, and demons and gods and demons on the left and right. However, they are the world of cultivators, and they are the only ones who can ascend from above and from below.
It can be reincarnated in hell, and the left and right can become monsters and demons. It is a realm related to all walks of life.
In fact, there is not much communication between the human world and the underworld except for the souls of the dead.
However, there are exceptions in history. For example, Pluto mentioned by the boy once brought the power of ghost to the human world because of personal grudges.
Ahem, that’s too far off topic.
Yun Lingyuan saw that the other person was calm, but he seemed to know her well. She knew in her heart that the other person was not an ordinary ghost or god. Well, it was a bit nonsense, but how could ordinary ghosts and gods have such free time to tell her stories.
Therefore, before she knew the identity and purpose of the other party, she was extremely cautious when speaking, for fear of saying something wrong and losing the chance to save Ye Ming.
But the other party didn't care what she thought, and continued to ask: "Did you hear about the fact that Pluto fell in love with the saint while he was a guardian, and then his tribe was killed?"
Speaking of this, Yun Lingyuan was stunned for a moment. Regarding Pluto, she only knew that Pluto and the Spirit King were fighting for the Saint. Later, Pluto was defeated and the Saint committed suicide. However, she has not yet told the story of the young man that Zi Huo told.
Tie in with the story of Hades.
The young man raised his left hand and put it on his brow to block the afterglow of the setting sun. Ghosts and ghosts did not like the sun either. He put one hand on the ridge of the roof and said:
"Forget it, let me pick out some key points. After Pluto became the Ghost King of Hell, the first stupid thing he did was to kill the elders of the Saint Maiden's clan on the night of the wedding between the Saint Maiden and the Spirit King. Although, those were all worthy of death.
person."
At this point, Yun Lingyuan was able to completely connect Pluto with the boy Zi Huo talked about.
(Author's note: This story is closely connected with "Chapter 044 Zihuo Storytelling". Friends who have forgotten it can go back and read it.)
Yun Lingyuan said: "Then he has indeed gone too far."
The young man raised an eyebrow and said, "You don't understand men."
"...?"
The young man said: "In Pluto's heart, the Saint has long been his. Any man who sees his woman getting married will probably do something stupid."
Yun Lingyuan argued: "...but he should let others down first..."
The young man thought to himself: "The second stupid thing Pluto did was to kill the Spirit King with the help of the Saint."
"That's wrong!" Yun Lingyuan's heart skipped a beat. Why was this version so different from what Zi Huo said? "Didn't it mean that the Saint committed suicide, the Spirit King snatched Bi Ling, and was killed accidentally by Bi Ling?"
"Yes, but the real version is that Pluto tricked him and the Spirit King died."
Yun Lingyuan said: "...Okay"
The young man added: "Biling was forged by Pluto. Before giving Biling to the Saint, Biling had been nourished by Pluto's flesh and blood."
She should have been surprised that Bi Ling was created by Hades, but for some reason, she felt that she had already guessed it.
Although it was very inappropriate, she still thought of Zi Huo.
Yun Lingyuan said: "Actually, there is also a folk version, which is that Pluto defeated the First Soul King and was thrown into the hell of reincarnation!!"
The young man chuckled: "It's just a folk rumor. The true version is that Pluto issued a letter of war to the Spirit King. In that battle, the gods outside the Nine Heavens were shocked by the two fighting. However, no one could stop the Spirit King from controlling the demons.
The devil and Pluto control ghosts and control souls. The two men are furious and refuse to listen to advice, causing chaos in the three realms.
