The ghost woman took it with fear, and then said, "Little man, it is very safe here. Normally, the will-o'-the-wisps will not monitor this place. At the moment, several ghost kings are fighting openly and secretly for the throne of the sixth floor. They cannot care about searching for you for the time being. Even if they find something wrong later, we will
Went to the lower level..."
"You seem to be in a hurry?" Ling Xuewei looked at the ghost woman with a scrutinizing look.
His eyes swept over her nose, which had been cut off all together. If you look closely, you can see that there are scars all over her face, including holes, burn marks, and signs of her facial features being cut off.
"How did you get these injuries?" Ling Xuewei suddenly said, changing the subject, "It doesn't look like a first-level punishment."
The hag's expression suddenly changed.
Ling Xuewei continued, "You said you have been staying on the first floor, but you know a lot."
Ling Xuewei revealed the contradictions in the ghost woman,
The ghost woman's eyes flickered. After a long time, she seemed to have finally made up her mind. She told Ling Xuewei the secret she had hidden for many years, "Sir, you are smart. I have indeed been on the lower level. My face was touched by a ghost official on the fifth floor."
Made it.”
At this point, the ghost woman's eyes were suddenly full of venom, mixed with a bit of self-mockery, "That ghost official is my husband in the world."
Ling Xuewei was surprised.
This... is indeed unexpected.
"I entered the underworld three hundred years ago and reached the fifth level. At that time, I wanted to improve my cultivation and get rid of the suffering of being punished every day and being whipped and slaughtered by ghost officials as soon as possible. So I practiced hard and finally succeeded in entering.
The fifth floor. I never expected that I would meet my husband there... and he also became a ghost official."
"After that, there was a horrific memory that I couldn't bear to look back on..."
As she spoke, the hag couldn't help but shudder, her eyes filled with hatred!
"He asked those brats to tie me up, cut off my hands one by one, dig out my flesh and blood, cut off my nose, and set hundreds of bone nails on my body... He tortured me in order to vent his anger.
The hatred in his heart, he hated me for killing him and letting him fall into this underworld! However, his fall into the underworld has nothing to do with me! Because his hands have been stained with dozens of human lives! After growing up with me
Before marriage, he had already killed someone!"
"After we got married, he even killed my children! He even had children's lives in his hands... He is a devil! And I actually ruined my life for such a devil! If you want to hate me, it should be me.
Hate! But he vented all his thoughts and resentments on me... He tortured me for decades. At that time, I really wanted to die like this, it would be better than being tortured by him..."
The hag's voice was hoarse and hoarse when she was excited, like dry branches scratching the ground.
"I have countless scars on my face and body. Some can grow back, while others leave marks forever. For example, this one."
The hag pointed to a scar on her scalp, "This is the result of being burned by the karma fire of the Styx. They hung me up and used the karma fire below to burn me alive. But maybe I was lucky.
, unexpectedly, at the critical moment, the breakthrough became 'Li', because my promotion alarmed the superiors, and they had to let me go."
The ghost woman sneered and explained to Ling Xuewei, "Ghosts of the same level are not qualified to deal with ghosts of his own level. Isn't it funny? But those of different levels can deal with ghosts lower than him at will. In this hell, any punishment
They are all innocent, only killing, weak and strong."
"So... you want revenge?" Ling Xuewei guessed the purpose of the ghost woman.
"Yes! I want revenge! Kill the devil who tortured me for thousands of years, ruined my life, and turned me into the human and ghost-like person I am today! He deserves it!"
At this point, the ghost woman suddenly knelt down with a pop and said, "Please help me, sir! I only have this wish. If you can help me realize it, I will go to the mountains of swords and seas of fire. I am willing to do my best for you! I am not afraid to pay any price."
!”
The hag's head hit the ground hard.
It should be said that it was this hatred that sustained her for living for these thousands of years! In the past, it was because there was no hope of revenge that she lived like a zombie.
Now, she finally sees hope, so she wants to take a gamble!
Even if it means giving your life!
"As you wish."
…
Two days later.
Finally the news came that we can cross the river today.
The ghost gave the ghost woman a position, but she asked for three hundred cultivation ghost beads.
In the past, the ghost woman might still be in pain for a long time, but now, with Ling Xuewei here, this ghost bead is no longer a problem.
However, in order not to arouse suspicion, the ghost woman bargained with the ghost envoy and finally lowered the price to two hundred and seventy ghost beads.
When crossing the river, Ling Xuewei will turn into elements all over her body and hide in her sleeves.
Soon, it was night.
Ling Xuewei and the ghost woman came to the edge of the Styx River, and what they saw was a river glowing with green light. As they got closer, the evil spirit came overwhelmingly. The two ghost officials in the lead were carrying a ghost lamp, which emitted a faint light.
The brilliance moved slowly in the dark night, resisting the increasingly heavy evil aura.
Soon, I came to the shore, and there was already a small boat there.
There is one person sitting on the boat.
Wearing a felt hat and a raincoat, his back is turned to the crowd and his appearance cannot be seen clearly.
"Ship Master."
The two ghost officials called people, surprisingly, they were respectful.
"It's almost time, let's get on the boat." The boatman blew his pipe and made a clanging sound in an old voice.
"Everyone get on the boat quickly, don't waste any time!"
So all the ghosts got on the boat one after another. When it was the hag's turn, the ghost official next to him suddenly said, "Wait a minute!"
The ghost woman froze, her heart tensed slightly, but she had a smile on her face, "What's wrong?"
"Ghost, our brothers have been taking care of you all these years. We are really reluctant to let you go..."
The hag understood and stuffed two bags of ghost beads into their outstretched hands. When the two ghost officials saw this, they shook the bags with satisfaction and said, "Don't worry, if you want to come back anytime, our brothers will definitely welcome you."
! Captain, this is our hag, please take care of her."
The boatman knocked on his pipe, glanced this way, and said nothing.
The two ghost officials left quickly.
The ghost woman secretly breathed a sigh of relief before getting on the boat and sitting down in the last seat.
All eleven seats on the boat were occupied.
"The ship is sailing."
With this sound, the boat slowly swayed and went down the river.
Ling Xuewei saw the darkness under the water. It was so dark that it was almost impossible to see how deep the river was. In the distance, green will-o'-the-wisps were floating on the water. These will-o'-the-wisps all flew out from the river, drifting farther and farther away, and gradually gathered into a
A bright green light...
What surprised Ling Xuewei was that the river was calm and calm. Even if a ship passed by, there would be no ripples at all, just like a piece of stagnant water.
