Chapter 134: Fengdu Guest (20)
At this moment, Lu Ren was sitting on a fisherman's carp and rushing to the gates of hell.
To be precise, this man who is keen on fishing on the Naihe Bridge is no ordinary person, but a god of the underworld.
"My name is Qin Guang, and I am the Lord of Hell of the First Palace."
Qin Guang's self-introduction was very concise, so concise that Lu Ren began to wonder if Hades were particularly common in the underworld, so common that even his self-introduction was so understated. Lu Ren secretly complained to himself: "Could it be the cabbage in the field? I have only been here for a short time, and I have already met three Hades."
Looking at the appearance of Lao Li and Mr. Zhang in the Wrongful Death City, they seemed to be very afraid of Bian Cheng, and even almost knelt three times and kowtowed nine times to Lu Ren when they first met. This shows that the Lord of Hell actually needs to be worshipped.
But in fact, among the three Hades that Lu Ren met, except for Bian Cheng who acted on his own, Qin Guang and Chongtong were very friendly to him and did not put on any airs of superiority. It seemed that this kind of normal face-to-face communication was the norm.
For a moment, Lu Ren found it difficult to define what attitude he should have towards the Lord of Hell who suddenly appeared before him.
"My name is Lu Ren, and this is my double pupil." In the end, Lu Ren decided to follow the example of Qin Guang and his double pupils and act more casually.
Qin Guang accepted this well and concentrated on controlling the carp.
Although the person sitting on the carp didn't show any reaction, the carp was now sweating profusely, not for any other reason, but because there were two and a half Hades sitting on it at once, which was truly spectacular.
All the dead souls in the underworld are afraid of the King of Hell, not because of his bad temper, but because the King of Hell, who possesses the Seal of the Ghost King, releases a fearful aura that makes all the ghosts unconsciously fear and respect them.
For the carp, it was like carrying a huge mountain on its back. It was so uncomfortable. The carp cried. If it had known that it should not have bitten Qin Guang's hook three hundred years ago, it would have been treated like a slave since it was caught.
The carp was moving forward while shedding tears, and its speed was very fast , causing the person sitting on the carp to be hit by a very strong wind. Qin Guang and Chongtong were fine, but as a mortal, Lu Ren was blown all over the place and couldn't open his eyes. Fortunately, Qin Guang and Chongtong noticed Lu Ren's embarrassment in time, one sat in front of him and the other sat behind him, surrounding him to prevent him from being attacked by the dark wind.
The underworld wind contains a lot of Yin energy. If an ordinary person is hit by the wind, he will be blown dry in a short time and fall into the underworld forever. The reason why Lu Ren was fine was that although he was a living person, he still had half of the Ghost King Seal given to him by Bian Cheng on his body, so even though he was blown by the underworld wind, he was still fine, just felt his lips were a little dry.
"Should I go to the supermarket and buy some lip balm when I get back?" Lu Ren thought idly, "I wonder if it will make me look a bit girly?"
Lu Ren put the paper lantern aside. No one knew what the phosphorescent fire inside was made of. In such a strong dark wind, the flame in the paper lantern was shaky, but it still stubbornly retained a trace of life, swaying in the wind.
Lu Ren held the teddy bear that Ah Bing was staying with in his arms. The furry doll was very warm, and Lu Ren, who was chilled by the wind, breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Ren whispered in the teddy bear's ear: "It's so cold. Let's make something warm for dinner today."
Ah Bing seemed very happy to hear this, because Lu Ren could clearly feel the teddy bear in his hand jump twice. It seemed that Ah Bing was also looking forward to dinner today.
Lu Ren touched the teddy bear's head and said gently to A Bing, "It's okay. The gates of hell are just ahead. If you go back early, you can still catch the sale at the market."
However, at this moment, the sound of the wind suddenly became louder, as if millions of ghosts began to howl in pain, causing Lu Ren's eardrums to hurt.
Lu Ren noticed that Qin Guangming, who was sitting on the fish head, leaned over and listened, as if someone was talking to him, and he was nodding silently.
Lu Ren was a little curious, but he didn't dare to ask who Qin Guangming was talking to. Suddenly, Qin Guangming's tone became louder and his voice became louder: "What? Is he crazy? How dare he?!"
Qin Guang's expression turned very ugly as he said this, not for any other reason, but because he just heard from the soul that was about to dissipate in the dark wind that Bian Cheng sent a drought demon to the underworld.
People coming out of the Senluo Palace can naturally control the Yin energy and naturally the Nether Wind. The Nether Wind contains all kinds of information in the Yellow Spring. It is the eyes and ears of the Ten Palaces of Senluo, assisting the Nether Kings of each palace in managing the affairs of the Yellow Spring.
Qin Guang and Bian Cheng couldn't be said to be very good friends, but they had been colleagues for tens of thousands of years, and he knew that his friend was indeed eager to create chaos in the world.
This is not just Bian Cheng's problem; it is a common trait of all Hades.
Because as the Lords of Hell , they will not die, nor will they enter the cycle of reincarnation. They will be locked up here for eternity. They have long lost the concept of time and space. They will not be happy for reunion, nor sad for separation.
Qin Guang asked the carp to speed up and get to the gate of hell as soon as possible.
Lu Ren remembered what Yang Qingyu had told him in the elevator of Wrongful Death City, that he must not let Chongtong get close to the gates of hell. So he thought about it, and then said to Chongtong: "Why don't you just send him here."
Chongtong looked at him in confusion.
Lu Ren explained: "Didn't Yang Qingyu say before that you'd better not close to the gates of hell? I thought it over and decided to believe it. Besides, you've helped me a lot, so I'll walk the rest of the way by myself."
The carp was still moving forward. Chongtong nodded, agreeing with Lu Ren's statement.
However, just as Chongtong jumped off the carp, something unexpected happened.
Chongtong, who had stood up and was about to jump down, suddenly made a 90-degree turn in the air, and his body moved uncontrollably towards the gates of hell in a way that ordinary people could not understand, as if he was suddenly pulled away by an invisible huge force.
Lu Ren heard Qin Guang, who was sitting on the fish's head, shout, "Not good!"
Lu Ren, who still didn't understand what was happening, realized that the situation was heading in an uncontrollable direction.
"A Bing!" Lu Ren made a prompt decision and sought A Bing's help.
After receiving the instruction, A Bing immediately stretched out two tentacles from the teddy bear and wrapped around Chong Tong's body. However, this did not stop Chong Tong from moving. In fact, the force pulling Chong Tong was so strong that Lu Ren, who was holding A Bing, almost flew out.
Ah Bing then extended two more tentacles and tightly wrapped them around the carp. Unfortunately, even the giant carp could not resist the pulling force, and the carp was obviously dragged away.
Lu Ren was a little panicked, but he heard the calm voice of Qin Guangming Jun coming from the front: "Just like that, don't let go."
Listening to Qin Guangmingjun's calm voice, Lu Ren, who was at a loss at first, calmed down unconsciously. Indeed, he had seen the ability of Chongtong before. He could easily kill such a big snake. No matter what was waiting for him ahead, Chongtong should be able to solve it easily without too much of a problem.
What's more, Qin Guang is following him. Although I don't know how capable Qin Guang is, since he is the King of Hell, I expect he shouldn't be too bad.
Qin Guang, who was sitting in front of the carp, frowned.
He just heard the news coming from the dark wind: Bian Cheng forcibly opened the Ghost Gate.
So now, Bian Cheng not only went to the human world, but also forcibly opened the ghost gate. Not long after Bian Cheng opened the ghost gate, Chongtong was dragged around by an unknown force. Qin Guang knew what happened with his toes.
This is the power of soul fusion. Bian Cheng still pulled the drought demon back to the underworld.
Qin Guang looked ahead silently, and sighed in his heart: "What on earth are you going to do, Bian Cheng?"
Qin Guang felt overwhelmed. It was not so easy to stop the fusion of souls. He thought about it for a long time and finally decided not to think about it for the time being: "Although it is useless, I will beat Bian Cheng up when I see him."
Qin Guang looked at the thick tentacles surrounding the carp. Although this thing was rare, Qin Guang also recognized it: "A ruin?"
A specialty of Guixu. Although Guixu is also under the jurisdiction of Jiuyou Realm, creatures like Xuhai are not docile kittens. If it weren't for the fact that most of the Xuhai are not smart and easily fooled, Jiuyou would have been chiseled into a sieve by them long ago.
And at this moment, this species that is said to be untamable is now obedient to Lu Ren's words like a well-behaved pet, and there seems to be a blood contract left on him.
As Bian Cheng's colleague for many years, Qin Guang has always known that Bian Cheng has a bad habit of collecting the souls he likes, but this is the first time he has given the Ghost King Seal to someone else. Perhaps, this will be a variable.
The carp under the people was rolling its eyes at this moment. Perhaps the feeling of being forcibly pulled away reminded it of the experience of being caught by Qin Guang that year. The whole fish looked like it was in agony.
Soon, large patches of red spider lilies came into their sight, indicating that they had arrived at the road to the underworld.
The force that had been pulling Chongtong suddenly disappeared. However, due to inertia, the carp that had been pulled continued to rush forward uncontrollably.
The carp fell heavily to the ground, belly up, and passed out.
The violent vibration caused Lu Ren to lose his balance and he fell off the carp, landing in the red spider lily field. Lu Ren got up from the ground with a grin on his face, and found that the paper lantern he had put aside had also been thrown off. After rolling all the way, the lantern finally stopped, coincidentally illuminating two people standing opposite each other not far away.
The flickering candlelight illuminated two different faces, both of which looked a little dazed. Although their noses, eyes, and mouths were not similar at all, they somehow felt similar. The two of them stood face to face, and there seemed to be an invisible force between them, slowly pulling them closer to each other.
The man who suddenly appeared and stood opposite Chongtong was wearing a Qing Dynasty robe, but the yellow talisman on his face was missing. Although it was the first time he saw the face under the yellow talisman, Lu Ren could still recognize the figure accurately. He didn't understand what happened, and could only call out the man's name in a daze: "Junfang."
Jun Fang was unaware.
