Chapter 1179
tread! tread! tread!
Grand Master Hei Nuo and Li Heihu followed the Yanwang Gossamer to this exceptionally quiet area.
Their footsteps were carried far away in the darkness, carried by the silent wind.
The flame web hairspring lingering between the two fingers became distorted in the dim empty space. Sometimes it penetrated into the darkness, and sometimes it twisted again and disappeared.
"this……
Where should I look for Inoko? "Looking at the flame net hairspring twisting and missing in the dim void, Li Heihu was a little dumbfounded and said blankly.
Grand Master Hei Nuo glanced at Li Heihu. On his red face, his dark eyes observed the surrounding situation. His voice was much lower: "There are too many strange and unpredictable situations in the underworld. Now that we are chasing If there is no trace of the master, we should not move forward rashly - it is much better to go back to where we were, or stay where we were, than to move forward rashly.
The master should be safe now. His level is much higher than ours. Just wait until he takes the initiative to look for us. "
"How can we be sure that Zhuzi is safe now?" Li Heihu asked again.
"If he dies, you won't be able to see me." Hei Nuo said.
"...Then let's wait for him here?"
Sensing the eerie silence around him, Grand Master Heinuo shook his head: "Let's go back to the gutter where the female corpse was previously entrenched - something is wrong with this place. If we stay here, something might happen."
"good."
The two made a decision to turn back along the original path.
Not long after the two of them walked out of this quiet area, layers of water ripples appeared in the dark void.
In the water waves, an almost identical scene appeared in the current area, except that in the quiet area in the water waves' fantasy, stood the figures of Hei Nuo Taishang and Li Heihu. The two were talking to themselves in the water waves' fantasy, deciding whether to stay in the water waves. At this time, it was better to go back to the original place - and while they were talking, the dream tapir statue lying on its side at the end of the dark earth at the end of the dark and silent area sat up at some point.
The two tentacles snaking out from its elephant trunk hang silently on its belly, and the imperial crown and beaded curtain above its head sways silently.
It sits cross-legged at the end of the silent area, and the entire silent earth is silently gathering and moving towards it, gathering into the twisting water waves around it - it seems to have turned into a muddy hole, trying to swallow up the entire silence. All the Yin Earth was accommodated, including the Supreme Lord Hei Nuo and Li Heihu who were standing on the silent Yin Earth at that time!
Fortunately, Li Heihu and Supreme Master Hei Nuo stepped out of that silent land before they were swallowed up by the Dream Tapir Statue!
In the silent and gloomy void, Yayoi's dream of water waves was instantly shattered.
At the end of the dark earth, the Dream Tapir statue sat up at some point and opened a pair of eyes above its head. In its eyes, there were clearly ten pupils hanging in each!
The blood-red pupils stared at the back of the 'Black Nuo Supreme Master' that vaguely appeared in the broken dream, and shed two streams of transparent tears.
"Dream……"
"Sweet dreams..."
"It's easy to wake up from a good dream..."
The loud, regretful voice disappeared into the silence and gloom.
The black prince, who returned to the sewer where the swollen female corpse had previously been, suddenly breathed out a sigh of relief - as soon as he walked into the silent land, an unspeakable and deep-seated feeling of fear lingered around him. In his mind, he was like a person searching for the toilet in a dream, with a sense of urgency pursuing him like a shadow!
It seemed to remind him that the dream he was in was about to wake up!
Once the ghost dream awakens, the people living in the dream, such as Hei Nuo and Bai Ju, will all turn into nothingness!
Fortunately, after he left the silent land and returned to the sewer where the swollen female corpse was previously entrenched, the feeling of urgency and fear suddenly disappeared, and everything returned to calm.
…
"quack!"
An eerie and noisy whistling sound came from the broken and dark sky.
Metal-colored feathers stained with blood followed and fell from the void.
The 'big-billed crow' held the swollen female corpse in its mouth, flapped its wings vigorously, and swooped down from the dark sky. On the blood-red rope hanging from its belly, a figure clung to the rope and swayed in the wind.
"Gah!"
The crow screamed, flew across the ground, and threw the swollen female corpse in its mouth to the ground.
Its pair of huge wings with few feathers left stirred up strong winds and billowing smoke on the dark earth.
The swollen female corpse fell into the dust.
Su Wu, who was clutching the intestines of the big-mouthed crow, also let go of the scarlet rope and fell onto the Yin Earth Earth - blazing golden fireworks surrounded him, and the fireworks rushed like an angry dragon. The 'big-billed crows' that circled towards the dark and broken sky were all extinguished by the sinister air currents stirred up by the flapping wings of the big-billed crows.
Su Wu's heart was awe-inspiring, and he instantly gave up the idea of sacrificing this 'big-mouthed crow' to his own soul.
Su Wu is still not sure whether this 'big-mouthed crow' will be as 'terrible' as it is now after it leaves the underworld, and whether the strong wind can extinguish Su Wu's already high-level fire.
But in this underworld, Su Wu's firewood cannot get close to the 'big-mouthed crow', and it is even more impossible to light it and sacrifice it to his own soul!
The underworld seems to be particularly protective of the dead things it contains.
The big-billed crow fluttered its wings and flew away. Its huge figure could no longer be seen in the dark and broken sky.
The billowing smoke and dust on the earth gradually subsided.
Clumps of pitch-black weeds that are taller than giant trees are spread out on the ground. This black ocean-like weeds submerges everything on this dark land.
In the towering black grass, only the remains of a few half-collapsed archway pillars that are even higher than the black grass can be seen.
The swollen female corpse fell into the black grass.
A certain path in the black grass.
A platoon cart was pulled by a blind mule and parked on the side of the road. There was an old coachman who was also blind sitting on the front of the platoon cart.
The swollen female corpse fell on the path behind the blind old coachman. After it landed, its body collapsed sharply, and soon it became the same as an ordinary person, except that it was covered in bruises.
It hurried to the platoon car and lay down on the platoon car.
The front of the car, which was originally tilted up, was flattened because the swollen lady was lying on her face on the platoon car.
The blind old coachman jumped out of the platoon tremblingly, saying, "Is the goods here? Is the goods here?"
No one responded to him.
A smile appeared on his face, he untied the rope hanging from the iron hook on the front of the platoon car, fumbled to tie up the pile of extremely soft things on the platoon car tightly, and completely tied the swollen female body to the platoon car. tied together.
Su Wu'an watched the movements of the blind old coachman quietly. After the other party tied up the swollen female body in the car and sat at the front of the car, he also got in and sat on the side of the car.
The old coachman waved the whip in his hand and shouted: "Go, go..."
The blind old mule and horse slowly spread their hooves, pulling the platoon cart behind them, deeper into the black grass.
The blind mule, horse and driver are not dead creatures.
The old coachman is a living person!
They somehow reached the depths of the underworld, and even helped transport mysterious corpses like the 'swollen female corpse' to an unknown place - the 'swollen corpse' was called the arrived 'cargo' by the old coachman - —Who asked him to help deliver goods here?
Does he know what he is transporting?
Do you know where you are?
And why was he and his mules and horses walking in this underworld unaffected by the strong aura of the underworld? !
In this 'black grass', even Su Wu's mind was obscured, unable to find out what was going on further away, but the old coachman's blind mules and horses seemed to know the road here...
"Hurry up...when you get to Haoli, you can get the money.
After receiving the money, I will add two more beans to your forage every day... They have taken a fancy to you and me, two old animals, and appointed us to deliver the goods. I will definitely treat you well. Who allows you to provide food to the family? It brings income..."
The old coachman sitting at the front of the car was smiling and talking, driving the old mules and horses that were walking slowly. The blind mules and horses mustered up a little more energy and increased their speed a little.
Both it and its owner were too old. Even if they tried their best to pick up the speed, they could only ask the platoon car to speed up a little.
The old coachman did not overstress his old buddy. He felt that the speed of the platoon car had increased slightly, so he put down his whip.
In fact, such an old animal is blind and can no longer do much work. It is a waste of fodder to keep. This old mule and horse were originally going to be killed for meat. Fortunately, someone stopped and gave it to the old coachman and the horse. His old mule found a job hauling goods.
The current work is quite peaceful, and there is no need to compete with others for anything.
At the beginning and end of every month, as long as you pull the cart to the river dam in front of your home, someone will load the cargo into the cart. As long as the old cart driver has tied up the cargo, his old mules and horses will pull the cargo on their own. Go to the designated place - 'Haoli'.
Even the old coachman had never heard of the place ‘Haoli’.
But the old mule and horse he raised knew how to go.
——Perhaps it was because of his ability as an old mule to know the way and deliver the goods to the place designated by the customer that the other party chose him to help pull the goods.
The old coachman was grateful for this.
There were vague syllables coming from his throat, and those vague syllables vaguely formed an ancient song.
The sad songs drifted in the cold wind.
"Where is the land in the wormwood? There is no wise man or fool to gather souls...
Why does Gui Boyi urge me? Human life must be hesitant..."
Su Wu listened to the intermittent singing, sitting on the side of the platoon car, swaying as the car swayed, and his figure spread over the clumps of dark wormwood.
He never asked the old coachman anything.
The thoughts running in the other person's mind have been glimpsed by him.
The old man is not a person in the underworld, he just 'happens' to go to the underworld to deliver the 'goods' entrusted to him by his customers, earn some money, and maintain the family's livelihood - why should he disturb the other party? Is it a good thing to harm others?
What's more, if a living person who passes through the underworld is 'awakened', the old man will probably die instantly.
