Chapter 260 Flower of the Other Shore
Chapter 260 Flower of the Other Shore
Qiqi felt a little emotional. If there really was a dragon living here, it would have transcended the tribulation and ascended to heaven long ago. It would have reached the dragon clan of the immortal world long ago. Is it okay now?
Their lights seemed so tiny in the dark river. The only sounds in the silent water were their footsteps and their breathing. Something was reflecting light up ahead. They all shone their flashlights over it. It was a mass of snake skins, all tangled together.
It seems that this is now a snake cave. Qiqi and the others did not stop and continued to move forward.
Their movements caused the snakes to move, and a hissing sound came from the front of them.
Have we arrived at the snake cave? They walked forward carefully and saw a deep pit in front of them. There were many snakes in the pit, all entangled together. Zhou Jingze set up a formation above the deep pit to prevent them from coming up.
As they continued walking forward, they saw something glowing under their light. Xie Lei ran forward and carefully picked it up. He saw that it was a large scale.
"Qiqi, look, is this a dragon scale? It's so big and hard." After Xie Lei said that, he handed the scale to Qiqi.
Qiqi often sees Xiaolong. She immediately recognizes this as a dragon scale, larger than Xiaolong's. What caused the dragon to lose a scale? What happened to it? Does it hurt when a scale falls off?
Zhou Jingze also reached out to take it and took a look. There were still traces of dried blood on the scales.
"Qiqi, keep it for now. You may need it in the future. Return it to the dragon when you meet it." Xie Lei said.
Qiqi remained silent, silently storing the dragon scale. She knew she had encountered many fantastical things in this world. She was just a modern person, who had come here for unknown reasons. It was to avenge Jiang Ziying. For the people of Da Zhou and Yongning. No, just for these reasons, they gifted me a space. So what was the purpose of all these things that happened later?
No need to think about it. Let's take it one step at a time.
There was a winding road under their feet, and in front of them was a large field of brightly blooming flowers.
"This is the red spider lily. Why is there such a flower here? Is there also a road leading to the underworld?" Xiao Rui said.
Qiqi and the other two had never seen the red spider lily. It was beautiful, with long, slender, gracefully curved petals, composed of several small florets, and long stamens extending outward from the petals. They came in red, white, and yellow. It looked a bit like a chrysanthemum, but it lacked the enchanting beauty of the red spider lily.
The red flowers of the red spider lily, like blood, are unforgettable. The white and yellow flowers are like a farewell to the departed souls, so that they won't feel afraid or lonely on their journey.
Qiqi felt like crying when she saw these flowers, and she didn't know why. If she hadn't traveled here, would she have seen the red spider lilies on her way to the underworld, drank Meng Po's Meng Po soup, and crossed the Forgetful River? Now she wondered where she would be reincarnated!
Zhou Jingze looked at the stunned Qiqi, walked over and hugged her. "Qiqi, don't worry, I'll take care of everything. God arranged for us to be together. We will be together for the rest of our lives. We will never be apart."
Qiqi looked at Zhou Jingze and held his hand tightly. "Together for eternity." Their voices were so low that neither Xie Lei nor Xiao Rui could hear.
There was a path among the red spider lilies, so they followed it. After walking for a long time, they were all surprised to see a glowing door. It was slowly rotating. When they saw something inside, the door spun faster.
The speed of its rotation could tear a person apart. Only when the soul was floating inside did it rotate slowly.
From their position, they watched as demonic spirits emerged from the revolving door. They were ripped apart by the door. Not even their souls escaped. It seems the underworld's demonic spirits are few and far between now. When demonic spirits were plentiful, the revolving door leading to the underworld would be filled with them. The glowing door couldn't eliminate so many demonic spirits at once, forcing them to flee to the human world.
Why not set up a barrier around the revolving door? Just let them move freely? Wouldn't that leave it full of loopholes? Wouldn't the demonic spirits escape? Who doesn't like freedom?
The four of them remained silent, staring silently at the door to the underworld.
Qiqi threw out a talisman, and soon saw the two ghost messengers, Black and White Impermanence, passing through the glowing door and coming to Qiqi.
"Qiqi, why are you here? Is there anything we can help you with? I thought it was the King of Hell calling us! We are catching the devil soul." The handsome Bai Wuchang said politely. Qiqi had given them the Soul Nourishing Pill, so they were very polite to her.
"Mr. Ghost Messenger, do you know where the evil soul came from and where it came to the human world?" Qiqi asked.
"Qiqi, what did you say? The devil's soul went to the human world. This is a big deal. I have to go back and report to Lord Yama and ask them to send someone to capture it as soon as possible to avoid hurting people. In addition, I don't know where the devil's soul escaped from. I will report all these to Lord Yama." Bai Wuchang said anxiously.
Bai Wuchang glanced back at Hei Wuchang. Hei Wuchang said nothing, turned around and went back through the glowing door.
"I haven't finished yet! Why is he leaving so fast?" Qiqi said.
"Qiqi, I asked him to report to the King of Hell. The King of Hell was busy catching the evil spirits. Even the Emperor was alarmed. The Emperor was furious, and we were all fined a year's salary. The King of Hell was scolded, and told to do it if he could, and get out if he couldn't. Our King of Hell was so scared that he went to find the evil spirits himself." Bai Wuchang said.
Qiqi also saw that Bai Wuchang's soul was a little unstable, probably because he was attacked by the evil spirit.
"Master Ghost Messenger, where is the soul-nourishing pill I gave you? Didn't you use it? Why is your soul a little unstable?" Qiqi asked.
"Qiqi, this is all thanks to your soul-nourishing pill. If I hadn't taken your soul-nourishing pill, I would have become transparent now. I fought with these evil spirits and was bitten by them many times. I took all the pills you gave me. Otherwise, I might have been swallowed by the evil spirits. Thank you, Qiqi. Hei Wuchang's injuries are more serious. We don't know what our King of Hell has become now." Bai Wuchang said.
Qiqi quickly pulled out a few bottles of Soul Nourishing Pills and handed them to Bai Wuchang. "Take this one first, and keep these bottles for later use. Come up and ask me for more if you run out."
Bai Wuchang's eyes lit up when he saw the Soul-Nourishing Pill. He quickly took it with both hands. He casually put a pill in his mouth, and soon his soul stabilized. He jumped up excitedly.
"Qiqi, you are really our savior. If my soul had been scattered, I would not even have the chance to reincarnate. Thank you for the elixir you gave me, which saved my life and Hei Wuchang's life. If you have any problems in the future, I will go through fire and water to do it for you." Bai Wuchang said firmly.
"Bai Wuchang, who has such a great face that he can make my Bai Wuchang go through mountains of swords and seas of fire to do something?" The voice of the King of Hell came.
