Chapter 67: To the City God Temple
I watched him run out, confused for a moment.
Isn't this fat guy going to cooperate with me? Take me to the underworld?
Why is he running out now? Could it be that he has given in after hearing his uncle's threat?
My cousin was also a little dazed and looked at me with puzzled eyes. I was distracted for a few seconds and was about to go out to take a look when I saw Fatty Wang suddenly running in.
I still looked at Fatty Wang, not understanding what on earth he was doing.
Time passed by, and Fatty Wang suddenly took out a token and said to me, "Okay, let's go."
I looked at Fatty Wang with a strange look in his eyes, and I didn't understand what Fatty Wang was thinking.
"Do you have a bed? Borrow it for me."
Fatty Wang had a hehe smile on his face.
When I saw the look on his face, it seemed like he was up to something bad, and for a moment, I became even more wary of him.
But I still took him to my room. After Fatty Wang went in, he didn't delay at all and went straight to my bed. Then I saw his soul coming out of his body.
The uncle also saw Fatty Wang's soul and said, "Okay, you guys go ahead."
My cousin gave me a look, and I understood it in an instant. I lay down on the bed and tore open a talisman that the Taoist priest had given me. When I tore the talisman, my soul could no longer be suppressed and came out of my body directly. However, my soul looked very weak, which was completely different from a normal soul.
Fatty Wang looked at me for a moment longer, but only once before he looked away.
He walked forward with a swagger, and I followed him. He had a token in his hand, and we quickly left the slaughterhouse and walked outside.
Because we have turned into souls, our speed of advancement is no longer comparable to that of ordinary people.
In less than a minute, we had floated several hundred meters away.
It was a quiet night. Fatty Wang was heading not to a remote area but towards the city. When he reached the city center, he could see some cars coming and going.
Seeing this, my expression couldn't help but change.
I thought to myself that something was wrong. Could it be that there was a road leading to the underworld hidden in the city?
I originally wanted to ask Fatty Wang, but Fatty Wang quickly moved forward without stopping for half a second. Even if I wanted to ask him, he didn't give me any chance. I had no choice but to follow him for a while.
After about half an hour, we arrived in front of a temple. This temple was located in the center of the city, a place where every inch of land is worth a lot of money.
I had stayed in this city for quite a long time before, but I didn’t realize that there was a temple in this city. This was something I never expected.
Fatty Wang might have seen my surprised expression, so he looked at me and said, "Chen Yang, you haven't been to this place before, have you?"
I:"……"
I nodded, and I was curious in my heart, what does this temple have to do with going to the underworld?
As I was thinking this, Fatty Wang didn't delay and said to me with a smile: "Chen Yang, this is the City God Temple of the underworld, did you know?"
I was a little confused by what Fatty Wang said. Actually, I didn’t understand these things at all.
"have no idea."
I answered him.
Fatty Wang's eyes fell on me and he stared at me for a while. Then I saw him acting like a master, giving people the feeling that he was unfathomable and not an ordinary person.
He was not in a hurry to go in. He put his hands behind his back and began to teach me some knowledge.
"Chen Yang, do you know who you work for?"
The question asked by Fatty Wang was a completely confusing one, and I didn't quite understand it.
"Does this matter to you?"
I didn't intend to tell Fatty Wang directly, so I couldn't help but ask him back.
Fatty Wang wasn't annoyed by what I said, and still looked at me with a smile.
"Chen Yang, it has nothing to do with me, but I am imparting knowledge to you now. If you become a high official in the underworld in the future, it will definitely not be good for you if you don't know these things."
Fatty Wang talked freely.
I didn't like this fat guy, so I continued, "I don't understand what you're talking about. When are we going to the underworld? How are we going to get there?"
Seeing that I was not interested, Fatty Wang said, "Let's go in first. I'll check the time."
He lowered his head to look at his wrist, where he saw a gold watch. After a pause, he said, "It is now 11:55. We still have to wait five minutes until midnight. At midnight, this temple will open, along with the door to the underworld. We can go through this door and reach the underworld."
I couldn't help but wonder, this temple actually hides the door to the underworld? I couldn't help but become curious.
I looked at him in confusion.
He seemed to see what I was thinking, and then he said to me: "Chen Yang, do you want to know why this place can connect to the underworld?"
He looked very pleased with himself.
I really wanted to know, so I didn't hesitate and said, "Yes."
Fatty Wang continued, "Okay, I'll use these five minutes to explain it to you."
I didn't interrupt him and waited for him to continue.
He coughed a few times, and said slowly, with a teacher-like look: "Before, I said that you work under the Land God. I didn't mean to find out your information, but I wanted to tell you that the Land God is just a small official in the underworld, and this temple is dedicated to the City God, who is one level higher than the Land God."
I still didn’t quite understand and waited for Fatty Wang to continue.
When Fatty Wang saw my confused look, he knew what I was thinking.
"One apprentice per town, one city god per county, do you understand?"
Fatty Wang looked at me, and after thinking for a while, I roughly understood what he meant.
As Fatty Wang was talking, I suddenly felt the air around me cool down. A gust of wind blew, and I couldn't help but look around.
But there was nothing around.
But at this moment, a somewhat strange "creaking" sound was heard, and the door suddenly opened by itself.
Fatty Wang was startled, then he said, "The time has come, the ghost gate is open."
I couldn't help but feel a little confused, but my heart couldn't help but become a little nervous.
I didn't react quickly, and Fatty Wang's voice rang directly in my ear: "Come in."
I nodded and followed Fatty Wang in. When I got inside, I saw a scene that I will never forget in my life.
