Chapter 245: Stewed Pot Hell, Human Face Fruit Tree, Yinhu...
After Kong Sang and Zhao Yuecheng hurriedly entered the fork in the road, the ghost howls behind them gradually disappeared.
Turning around and looking around, I saw that the Yellow Spring Water and the demons behind me were not chasing after me anymore.
Kong Sang leaned on one spot and panted heavily. His physical strength was never very good, and now he felt a burning pain in his throat.
Zhao Yuecheng looked around with a strange expression. His eyes were obscured by a layer of hazy mist, and he couldn't seem to see what was dangerous behind him.
"You just said that Huang Quan is chasing us? Then aren't we in the underworld now?"
Kong Sang shook his head:
"I don't know about this. According to what my boss said, myths are just myths. There are indeed so-called creatures or places that are endowed with mythical characteristics and have so-called divinity, but they seem to be different from what everyone knows."
"To put it simply, there may be an other side where ghosts stay, but it does not necessarily prove that the underworld must exist. In the same way, even if there is an underworld, it does not mean that the black and white impermanence in mythology exists."
Zhao Yuecheng let out a "tsk" sound, tensing up slightly and not daring to relax.
As an executioner, he should be considered the most experienced in killing. At this time, he always felt that there were dangers around him:
"Have you ever felt a little warm?"
Kong Sang was stunned. He had not thought about it because he had been running so violently before.
But now, he felt a little stuffy and humid, as if he was in a sauna.
Thinking of this, Kong Sang took out his watch gong.
As the soul-soothing sound was struck, the thick fog around began to roll.
At the same time, waves of low roars came out.
Zhao Yuecheng grabbed Kong Sang's collar and pulled him away.
"...What you did just now made me think you were catching a puppy."
"In my eyes, what's the difference between you and a puppy?" Zhao Yuecheng sneered: "Also, I'm not familiar with you, so there's no need for you to tell cold jokes!"
Saying that, Zhao Yuecheng picked up the ghost head sword and slashed hard.
"Ahhhhh!"
"Woooooooo..."
Amidst the sounds of sobbing and laughter, the thick fog began to dissipate.

The scene in front of him was beyond Kong Sang's expectation.
There is a bridge in front of you. It looks like the Yudai Bridge in Qingyi Garden, but it is a little different.
Looking at the palm-sized black lions crawling on the bridge piers on both sides makes people shudder.
In the dim sky, there were no sun, moon or stars, only black wind, which was exactly the same as the scene that sneaked into Liu Xiaoxiao's dream.
As the thick fog completely dissipated, the entire bridge was actually crowded with people!
"This is……"
Kong Sang suddenly saw two acquaintances.
One of them is the girl who used the sound of the flute to relieve the other party's crying and evil spirits at the gate of Qingyi Garden.
The other one is the man who hanged himself with a tie in the garden.
At this time, the behavior of these two people was exactly the same as in Liu Xiaoxiao's dream!
One was scratching his face, tears mixed with blood dripping into the bowl.
One had almost strangled his neck so much that he was deformed.
These beings, who couldn't tell whether they were humans or ghosts, turned their heads stiffly one after another. Each one had no eyeballs, only the whites of their eyes, staring stiffly at Kong Sang and Zhao Yuecheng, which made people shudder.
Suddenly, there was a roar not far away. There seemed to be something moving in the dim and blurry sky.
Immediately, the people on the bridge became frightened and shed bloody tears one by one.
They ran to both ends of the bridge quickly, even ignoring Kong Sang and Zhao Yuecheng.
"What are they running from? Is there something scary on this bridge?"
Zhao Yuecheng's subconscious question made Kong Sang change his face.
"No, let's evacuate quickly!"
Just when Kong Sang grabbed Zhao Yuecheng and was about to run back, he saw that the entire bridge was strangely elongated.
It was a very weird feeling. The bridge was obviously not long, and it seemed like it only took a few steps. But it just couldn't reach the end, and it was just like a ghost beating a wall, looping around on the bridge.
Under the bridge, the steaming mist began to increase again, the temperature obviously began to get higher and higher, and the feeling of humidity became heavier and heavier. There was even a strange aroma like steamed meat wafting out.
"These fogs are here again." Zhao Yuecheng said and was about to take action.
"These are not mist, they are steam!" Kong Sang shouted anxiously: "Zhao Yuecheng, we must leave this bridge, hurry up! There is a pot-stewing hell down here! We will be steamed!"
Although Zhao Yuecheng didn't know whether the absurd situation of a hell appearing under a bridge was true, he could see that the fear in Kong Sang's eyes was not fake.
He touched the blade with his palm, and the ghost-headed sword with Zhao Yuecheng's blood suddenly let out a strange laugh.
"Don't sleep, get up and work!" Zhao Yuecheng shouted angrily.
In an instant, the ghost face embedded in the handle of the knife suddenly opened its eyes. The two scarlet eyes observed the surroundings in confusion, and then opened a large mouth full of jagged teeth.
"Behead me!"
Amidst the grimace and laughter, Zhao Yuecheng slashed out with a bloody blade!

In mid-air, like a curtain being cut open, a gap appeared.
At this moment, two huge arms stretched out from above, seeming to want to catch them all.
"Walk!"
Zhao Yuecheng grabbed Kong Sang and jumped directly into the gap.
Almost in tandem, the arm passed across where Zhao Yuecheng was standing. It seemed that because he failed to catch it, he let out a cry that sounded like anger.
Immediately, another gap appeared on the other side of the bridge, and Kong Sang and Zhao Yuecheng got out.
At this time, the two arms began to catch these people who were still running away on the bridge but could not escape.
With a burst of heat, he threw it under the bridge.
It was also at this time that Zhao Yuecheng saw the scene in front of him clearly.
Under that bridge, there was actually a huge iron pot! And inside the iron pot, there were some people who had been steamed like minced meat. As for the fuel under the iron pot, it was actually countless white bones!

"Is this... the real pot-stewing hell?" Zhao Yuecheng's expression turned ugly.
Kong Sang sighed: "Whether it is true or not, but these people seem to be dead."
"What they shed just now were tears of blood, and it seems that just like what is recorded in the hell myth, they have been subjected to such torture repeatedly."
"It's just...it was clearly a nightmare given to Liu Xiaoxiao and others by the Nian beast, but why did it become a reality in the ghost realm of the Qing Palace?"
For a moment, Kong Sang was a little unsure of the meaning behind this.
At this moment, a whistling sound came from the distance.
"Who!"
The two of them immediately became alert.
They winked at each other, Zhao Yuecheng protected Kong Sang behind him, and walked step by step towards the weird-shaped tree not far away.
The big tree looks like a peach tree, with lush branches and many fruits, but Kongsang feels vaguely evil.

The two of them walked around the big tree, and when they saw the person behind the tree, their expressions changed drastically.
"Chen Tao!"
At this time, Chen Tao was in a very miserable state. His Taoist robes were in tatters, and some roots and tentacles coming out of the tree were actually piercing into Chen Tao's body. The parts that poked out were as if they had been sucked full of blood.
Glowing translucent red.
Kong Sang subconsciously wanted to use Nether Fire to burn it, but suddenly remembered that he no longer had the power of the gods, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Yuecheng slashed down with his broadsword, cut off all the tentacles, and pulled Chen Tao out from inside.
Kong Sang breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, Chen Tao's wound still had blood and the breath of a living person, which meant that he was different from those on the bridge.
Chen Tao seemed to have regained some consciousness and murmured.
"Chen Tao, what did you say?"
The two of them moved closer to listen.
"Quick...run away."

As soon as they finished speaking, both of them felt the sound of breaking through the air behind them.
Zhao Yuecheng smiled coldly, turned around and slashed horizontally in an instant.
The shrill and piercing screams were very chaotic. There were children who fell to the ground, women who were crying silently, and men who were wailing loudly.
Kong Sang took a closer look and saw that what was cut off were several tentacles.
Looking up again, on the strange peach tree, peaches that looked as big as fists were twisting around.
Immediately, blurry faces appeared on Taozi. These faces were old and young, male and female, but they all showed signs of pain.
"Damn it, this is the human face fruit tree!"
Zhao Yuecheng roared and slashed down hard with the ghost-headed sword. The originally invincible ghost-headed sword only chopped off a few pieces of the big tree at this moment.
"Zhao Yuecheng, don't be obsessed with fighting! Let's move forward!"
Immediately, Kong Sang carried Chen Tao on his back and gradually left the human-faced fruit tree under the cover of Zhao Yuecheng.

From the corner of his eye, he could still see the human-faced fruit tree extending its tentacles deep under the bridge, picking up ghosts one by one and absorbing them. It turned out that the souls tortured by the stew pot hell would passively become nourishment for the human-faced fruit tree.
If this goes back and forth, even if this place is not hell, I'm afraid it won't be much better.
The two ran out for a while and found themselves in a dense forest.
After looking around, it seemed that there was no danger, Kong Sang carefully put Chen Tao down, and hurriedly took some wound medicine for external and internal use from the Hutian bracelet and began to bandage Chen Tao.
At this time, Chen Tao had regained consciousness, although he was still very weak.
"You are..."
Kongsang said:
"The matter is very complicated. We also encountered a lot of troubles at the Lakeside Qing Palace. Although it has been temporarily solved, the ghost domain has begun to expand."
"Chen Tao, what is going on? Why are you in the underworld?"
Chen Tao took big gulps of the mineral water handed over by Kong Sang, almost finishing the bottle in one go. He also took the bread and ate it clean.

"Huh... we were originally investigating Liu Xiaoxiao's incident, and we have certain clues."
"However, just after we went to Grandma Liu Xiaoxiao's house, her daughter and son-in-law showed strange double eyes. We were a little scared, so we planned to leave first."
"Then we saw Liu Xiaoxiao at the intersection. But...but she can no longer be considered a human being."
"What! What happened to my granddaughter and the others!"
The old lady got away from Kongsang anxiously.
Chen Tao took a look and seemed to have no extra energy to ask anything:
"Not only did Liu Xiaoxiao become double-eyed, but her parents also came over."
"She seemed to be performing some kind of ritual. We originally wanted to retreat, but it was like we were trapped in a trap."
"At this time we realized that maybe we were not in the real world."
"Then we saw two candlelights."

"The candlelight was so bright that we couldn't open our eyes. By the time I came to my senses, I was already in this ghost place."
"We were scattered at the beginning. I don't know where Zhengye and He Meng are. I originally wanted to look for them, but I accidentally discovered this."
As he spoke, Chen Tao took out a strange-shaped fragment from his arms.
I looked at the empty sauna in my hand and saw that it was a tiger head, but only half of it.
"There is a very heavy Yin energy and evil energy on this fragment. I can't recognize it, but I have a vague feeling that this thing seems very important."
"Your intuition is right." Zhao Yuecheng raised his eyebrows: "This is the Tiger Talisman."
After hearing this, Kong Sang immediately conducted a careful inspection.
A moment later:
"It does look like the shape of a tiger charm, but why does this thing appear here?"
"I finally understand Prince Gong's plan." Zhao Yuecheng sneered:
"Not only did he resurrect himself, but he built an underground palace to resurrect himself. This tiger talisman is also called the Yin Tiger Talisman. It is an instrument that can control a large number of dead souls."
"When the first Yin Tiger Talisman was cast, the executioner lineage intervened and filled it with a lot of murderous energy. So I have seen it in the information."
"It seems that Prince Gong still wants military power. But where does the military power come from? He is an old monster after all. Ordinary human soldiers can't do it, so he turned his brain to the monster!"
