Chapter 160: Via the Underworld
The maple forest scroll was stolen, and the emperor of Fengxu Kingdom was furious and sent troops to search the whole city.
For a moment, the wind in Shangqiu City was roaring, and the trees and grass were all covered with soldiers. Everyone was as silent as a chill, not daring to say a word, for fear that if he accidentally said something inappropriate, he would be taken into prison as a treasure thief, and his life would be worse than death.
During such a brutal search, someone finally reported the house where Zhiying and others were hiding. However, the owner of the house had heard about it earlier, paid his baggage and left. Zhiying and others also quietly left Shangqiu City, so naturally they investigated
If you don't grow up, you will be ugly.
The leader of the Fengxu Kingdom sent a group of officials who had failed in their work to prison, and immediately ordered that a person be wanted nationwide, no, in every country in the world.
The officials who received the order were stunned when they saw the portrait of the wanted criminal painted by the Lord of Fengxu.
The portrait shows a man whose face has been completely disfigured and whose appearance is ruined. There are a few words written on the side of the portrait - he may be disguised.
Maybe he can disguise himself... Since he can disguise himself, what's the use of having this portrait?! But this is not something he should worry about. He is only responsible for conveying orders. Finding people is the responsibility of others, success or failure.
, what does it have to do with him?
Of course, these are all things for later. Ji Li and Zhi Ying who stole the Maple Forest Scroll, one took the farewell twins across the Canglang Sea to Ruoxie Valley, and the other followed the little Golden Crow out of the mass graves.
Wrong souls go to the underworld.
Zhiying looked around at the many ghosts around her, feeling a chill in her body. Fearing that the aura of strangers would disturb the ghosts who had gone to the underworld to be reincarnated, both she and Little Golden Crow restrained their spiritual aura. At this time, they did not open their lips, and only communicated with Little Golden Crow.
Voice: "Why are there so many headless ghosts recently? Has anyone committed any major crime?"
Little Golden Crow raised his eyes and glanced at a headless ghost three feet above the ground in front of him, and whispered in a nonchalant tone: "Why do you care so much? Unjust cases will be judged by the kings of the underworld. You and I just have to judge."
I need a way out."
Turning his body slightly to avoid a headless ghost bumping into him, Zhiying frowned and muttered: "I always feel that this matter is a bit strange..."
After thinking about it, the two of them, like the ghosts around them, floated three feet above the ground to the gate of hell.
Different from the entrance when we passed through Beihai last time, when we arrived at the entrance to the mortal world of the underworld, the archway in front of us was completely lifeless black, as if it was made of genuine dark wood, with the three characters "Ghost Gate" written on it.
The font is neat and the strokes are round, but it doesn't feel gloomy. Instead, it has a kind and gentle feeling of compassion for all living beings.
"Let's go, go back early, go back early." Little Jinwu walked into the archway first.
Zhi Ying buried her head to hold back her laughter. Fortunately, she understood the meaning of his words. Those who didn't understand thought he was playing tongue twisters!
Floating forward leisurely, the moment it floated into the gate of hell, a black light beam was cast from above, covering Zhi Ying and Little Golden Crow, and soon someone shouted: "You two, stop! No strangers are allowed to enter.
The gate of hell is closed, why don’t you retreat quickly!”
Zhiying stopped subconsciously, and from the corner of his eye, he saw the ghost guard guarding the gate of hell holding a steel fork and floating towards him.
"Let's go!" Little Jinwu reached out and grabbed Zhiying's wrist and dragged her towards Huangquan Road at a high speed, knocking down the ghosts floating around and ignoring them, causing a lot of trouble along the way.
Zhiying looked at him in a hurry and didn't care about anything, so he secretly guessed that something big had happened?
She knows that Little Golden Crow has always been informal about small things, but he sticks to big things. They should be more relaxed when they use the underworld. If they barge in without hesitation, they are afraid that they will offend the people in the underworld, cause dissatisfaction, and be punished.
Punishment may even affect the friendship between the two races.
After getting rid of the ghost behind him, Zhiying frowned and asked Little Golden Crow: "Why did you run away with me like this? What big thing happened in the underworld? Is there something I don't know about?" After saying that, he suddenly felt
My own question sounded familiar, but now was not the time to pursue it.
Little Jinwu tucked her hair that had been scattered while running away behind her ears, looked at her and sighed helplessly: "You have such a confused temperament! You will naturally know it when you return to heaven."
"Heaven...what happened to heaven?" Zhiying's frown deepened. She was always worried about the dream in the Asking Heart Cave, fearing that this dream would really be what Guichen said and would become a definite future.
In order to avoid meeting high-level figures in the underworld, neither of them spread their spiritual consciousness. Little Golden Crow looked around and said: "Fortunately, this is the only time I can use the underworld. Let's go! I'm afraid the ghost messengers have already sent messages to each other. There are too many people.
It will be difficult for you and me to leave."
Weaver Ying nodded in reply, fearing that he would encounter people from the underworld again and cause unnecessary trouble. This time they directly used the sky curtain to cover their faces and openly floated across the land of the underworld.
When passing a giant bluestone, Zhiying overheard someone discussing something and vaguely mentioning the word "heaven". She made a mysterious sound, signaling Little Golden Crow to stop and listen.
An old woman in her fifties or sixties whispered to the bull-headed messenger in front of her: "Is what the messenger said true? Is Wu Xianguo really surrendering to the new heaven?"
The bull-headed messenger nodded and also lowered his voice: "Pan Cui told me personally. If it weren't for you and me having a close friendship, I wouldn't have said much to you."
Weaver Shadow almost cried out in shock.
The Wu Xian Kingdom is responsible for conveying the wishes of the human race in the mortal world to the Emperor of Heaven, and then conveying the will of the Emperor of Heaven to the human race in the mortal world. It is one of the countries in the world that has the closest relationship with the gods.
If you control the Wu Xian Kingdom, you are equivalent to controlling the human race in the mortal world. This is undoubtedly a huge advantage.
The old woman was also shocked. The two big eyes that were originally deeply sunken in the eye sockets seemed to be about to fall off. She took a moment to digest the news and sighed: "In this case, isn't the New Heaven Realm half achieved?"
What an advantage!"
"Yes." The bull-headed messenger sighed deeply, and there were two more horizontal stripes at the base of the mountain.
"In the past few days, Lord Yuan often called many adults into the meeting hall to discuss matters. Pan Cui was very worried and felt that he should not get involved in the dispute between the New Heaven Realm and the Heaven Realm. However, Yuan Lord had a word with the Lord of the New Heaven Realm six hundred years ago.
, most of those who followed him were important figures from the God Clan who had witnessed the alliance formed back then.
Therefore, the adults are at a deadlock on whether to support the New Heaven Realm or the Heaven Realm, and they are still arguing endlessly. In my opinion, it is better to ignore both sides as Cui Cui said, and make the trouble like this, why bother?"
After hearing the words of the bull-headed messenger, Zhiying became even more frightened.
His complicated words revealed three pieces of information: first, Wu Xianguo has surrendered to the New Heaven, second, the lineup of the New Heaven, and third, the attitude of the people in the underworld.
Putting aside the Wu Xian Kingdom that has surrendered to the New Heaven Realm, most of the gods that Niutou said constituted the New Heaven Realm were the gods that witnessed the alliance that year. Regarding this "alliance that year", Zhi Ying still had some impressions, that is, Gu Meng attacked six hundred years ago.
