Chapter 136: Quietly walks with eyes closed
The sound of dialogue sounded again around Wu Xian.
The first voice is a little weak.
"Poor Master, why is this road so muddy and pitch black? Your little lantern is the only light. Can you untie the rope from Xiaosheng's hand first? It's so dark on the muddy ground. It’s really humiliating to be polite.”
The second person had a bold voice.
"You pampered poor scholar, you just have to laugh with a rope tied to your hand. Master Dao, I'm still wearing shackles. Look at the bald donkey next to me with a sack on his head. I'm afraid he can't even see the road clearly." , I can only follow the lantern."
Suddenly a loud shout came.
“Shut up!”
“You murderous thief scholars, anti-thief Taoist priests who instigated riots, and unruly monks who seduced princesses, you committed sins in the world of heaven, but you still dare to come to the underworld. Complain and wait to be punished by cannons, saws, and hot ashes..."
"The poor monk did not complain..."
Snap!
The sound of the whip sounded, and the three people suddenly wailed in unison. After giving these three people a lesson, the man who yelled again said.
“The underworld is gloomy, without the light of the sun and moon. It is naturally pitch black. Only underworld people like us have lanterns. Alas, I don’t know what disasters have happened in the world recently. Countless dead souls have entered the Naihe River, leaving the Naihe River The water is flooding and the road to Huangquan is so muddy..."
Wu Xian continued to work hard to lift his feet, and his heart moved slightly.
Judging from the sound, there were six people around him, namely a scholar, a monk, a Taoist priest, a Yinzai, an old man and a girl. In addition, there were countless noisy sounds, and there were even cars and horses driving by. However, only these six people stayed with Wu Xian temporarily.
After listening to Yin Chai's explanation, the scholar suddenly pointed his finger at Wu Xian: "What about this guy? Why is he so relaxed and able to walk on the flat ground?"
Yin Chai sneered.
"This is a person who tries to use his Yin life to cover up his Yang life. Every step is a hurdle. He can't complete the journey. This method violates the laws of Yin. When he fails, I will arrest him and you guys together. Bring him to justice, as for now..."
"Let's wait and see what's going on first. When people in the underworld walk in the underworld, there will be people who are jealous of the living and will come to trouble him. "
Yin Zha. Talk about seeing the excitement.
But Wu Xian was also listening to the excitement.
The sounds around him seemed quite real, but Wu Xian knew in his heart that he was still on the 100-year-old platform of Huangquan. The scenes on the Huangquan Road were all illusions. He just needed to move forward steadily.
The scholar was surprised and said: "Hey, it's true, a ghost has come up so quickly!"
Wu Xian finally raised his feet and was about to put them down when he suddenly heard someone coming from behind. Come and call.
"Xian, you have grown so big."
This voice was very familiar to Wu Xian. It was the voice of the old detective who raised him.
Wu Xian was silent for a while, his body trembled for a moment, but he did not turn around or respond, he just took the second step down heavily.
"Hey..."
After a sigh, the old man's voice disappeared and did not appear again. Wu Xian immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
The Taoist priest said with some disappointment: "It's a pity, it's a pity that he didn't turn around. He had three yang fires on his body. It was so hot that I didn't dare to get close. If he had just turned his head and blew out one Fire, we little devils can go over and have a try.”
Snap!
The Taoist priest was whipped again and let out a scream.
Yin Chai said coldly: "Do you think I am just a decoration? How can I let you harm someone, even if he is a prisoner?"
The Taoist priest retorted: "Then you Why don't you pay attention to them? Let's not mention the ghost talker just now. Let's talk about the big ghost behind him. He has been staring at this living person for a long time, and I don't know how long he can endure it. "
The tone of the shackles suddenly became weaker: "I'm just a little shackles, and I can't control all ghosts..."
While they were talking, Wu Xian had already raised his third foot.
He could vaguely feel a small figure running away from him and whispering in front of the old man.
"Grandpa, this man is so good-looking."
"What are you saying, little girl? We are all dead, so stop causing trouble..." The third step , four steps, five steps, Wu Xian did not encounter any danger.
The Taoist scholar and scholar were always making noises beside him, and Yin Chai would occasionally speak out to stop the two men from their dark behavior. The girl often ran over, as if observing Wu Xian secretly, and then shyly left Wu Xian.
Wu Xian had a sneer on his lips.
The scholar, Taoist priest, girl, and old man acted very realistically. They tried hard to create a real atmosphere, but these tricks could not fool Wu Xian.
Going forward with your eyes closed while there are strange noises all around you is a very psychological test.
But Wu Xian has experienced it long ago.
In the Shadow Hotel, he once closed his eyes and played a clapping game with the terrifying ghost mother who was looking for a child. The ghost mother was a completely real evil spirit. If he was dissatisfied, he would attack Wu Xian. That kind of helplessness, darkness, The fear of not being able to control the situation still makes Wu Xian feel creepy when he thinks about it.
Compared with that, this time is a bit childish.
Wu Xian only thought that those evil sounds were noises made by birds and beasts. Apart from creating some psychological pressure, they could not stop Wu Xian's footsteps.
"Grandpa, he..."
The old man seemed to want to stop something: "Come back and stop meddling in other people's business."
But the girl didn't listen to him. She ran to Wu Xian and said, "Brother, there are traps under your feet. Don't stop, otherwise you will get hurt!"
When Wu Xian raised his feet for the sixth time, , the girl suddenly reminded.
Wu Xian laughed out loud.
It was indeed such a routine. After he realized that he didn't take the outside voices seriously, these voices directly interfered with his actions.
Who least hopes that he will finish these twenty-six steps?
Of course it’s that ‘Mr. Lanke’!
Mr. Lan Ke may be the will of this Yin Yang Centenary Tower.
So Wu Xian directly landed the sixth kick. But because of the girl's reminder, he was still a little wary, so he didn't land the kick too hard.
Chi!
Wu Xian suddenly felt pain in the soles of his feet!
The monk sighed: "Amitabha..."
The scholar shouted excitedly: "Ha, stepped on it, he really stepped on it!"
Yin Chai sneered and said: "It's from Huangquan. The road is changing all the time. If a living person dares to walk in the underworld with his eyes closed, there is already a way to die!"
Wu Xian suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
The place where he just landed was suddenly covered with nails!
The soles of Wu Xian's shoes had long been riddled with holes from his own thorns, so these nails penetrated directly into Wu Xian's soles.
Fortunately, Wu Xian's feet have 'naturally thick skin', so these nails did not penetrate deeply. Wu Xian endured the pain, stepped on these nails, and stepped up with his other foot. This time he Be a lot more careful.
When Luan Jing was on stage, his arm was broken off out of thin air.
This shows that people can also be injured on the 100-year-old stage. If Wu Xian accidentally steps into a dangerous place and becomes disabled, it would be okay, but it would be terrible if he dies directly.
Wu Xian’s seventh step was also very smooth.
But at the eighth step, the Taoist priest suddenly reminded him.
“Brother, be careful, there is an abyss ahead!”
Wu Xian raised his foot, swallowed his saliva, and did not dare to ignore the reminder again. He did not dare to drop his foot for a long time...< br>
Part of the inspiration comes from Xuan Shi Zhi, Zhang Wen——(Mid-Tang Dynasty Zhiguai novel, written by Zhang Du, Zhang Du’s grandfather is the author of the previous chapter, the author of Xuanguailu, family Zhiguai novel Yes.)
This paragraph is very complicated, so I won’t post the full text, but only two paragraphs related to Huangquan Road.
After walking for more than ten miles, the road was dark and indistinguishable, but I heard cars and horses racing, people talking loudly, and my wife and brothers calling and crying. They all said, "Let's talk about the funeral utensils."
Wen Yin He said: "Why is my brother's residence like this?" Ji Lun said: "The dark road is dark and dark, and there is no light from the sun and the moon."
