And on the shore,
Behind them,
There was still no one!
Xie Lian had been worried the whole way, and when he saw this, he stabbed back with his hand. The black shadow was clearly stabbed by him, but it was like stabbing a ball of water, and a ripple spread out,
It disappeared on the spot. Hua Cheng also tilted his head slightly,
Looking in the direction where the black shadow disappeared, he frowned. Then,
More shadows of human figures appeared in the water, their pale faces and pairs of pale hands were the only eye-catching thing in the dark night. Xie Lian swept out with his sword,
He shouted, "General Pei! Go to the side of the water,
Look at the reflection! The reflection in the water can reflect those things! "
If not for the fact that they were in the ghost region, these little ghosts would not have been able to get close to the priest.
Pei Ming could not see the enemy just now,
Now that he noticed something, he stared at the water,
With two swishes of his sword, he dealt with the group of ghosts that surrounded him. And Shi Wudu finally noticed the strangeness of the reflection. He knelt by the water,
He lowered his head and said, "Qingxuan? Are you there?! "
The water was pitch black, and the iron prison was also pitch black,
They merged into one,
It was hard to notice, only that hand was white. In a flash, a face suddenly appeared in the middle of the iron bars,
It was Shi Qingxuan!
He did not seem to see Shi Wudu outside the iron prison. With a creepy expression, he grabbed the iron bars with both hands and squeezed his head out with all his might, as if he was shouting for help, but not a single sound could be heard. After shouting for a while, suddenly five or six withered hands grabbed his head, face, neck, and shoulders, and dragged him down!
Seeing this, Shi Wudu cursed and was about to jump into the water. Pei Ming grabbed him and said, "Senior brother Shui, don't! How do you know this is not a trap? The water from the South Sea can't be transferred over. As the Water God, if you enter other people's waters, won't you be meat on the chopping block? "
Shi Wudu patted his shoulder and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you to look after me outside." He then pushed him away and jumped into the Black Water Lake!
Once he entered the water, he did not float up again. Pei Ming said, "Senior Martial Brother Shui!" But he could not follow him down, because he knew that there was probably a 'boundary' under the lake. It was just like the traps set in some ancient tombs. When an outsider broke in, they could open the tomb door from the outside. However, once they entered, the tomb door would automatically close and could not be opened from the inside. The tomb robbers would be trapped in there and die. It was hard to say if this "world" did not have similar settings. Xie Lian said, "General Pei! Don't go down, there are corpses at your feet. Go back to the beach, make a coffin, and prepare to leave. I'm going down! "
Pei Ming said, "Your Highness? Can you do it? "
Xie Lian said, "Your spiritual power has pretty much been depleted by now. We're about the same, so I'm more experienced in fighting than you!"
Pei Ming then looked at Hua Cheng beside him and remembered that he could float on the water. The two of them were more useful here than him, not less. Without another word, he picked up the little ghost's corpse and ran out of the forest. Xie Lian turned his head and said, "San Lang, please lend me a little of your magic power … just a little, just a little is enough!"
Hua Cheng didn't say a word and lightly patted Xie Lian's back. The tip of the Fragrant Heart Sword immediately swept out a pillar of white light, killing all the little ghosts in one strike. Xie Lian was speechless for a moment. Then, he put away his sword and said, "I'm leaving!"
The two of them jumped into the water at the same time. However, at the bottom of the Black Water Lake, other than the lake water being abnormally cold, there were actually no abnormalities. Moreover, it was different from the Black Water Ghost Tribe's "sinking upon entering the water". This water was clearly capable of floating, no different from ordinary lake water. Xie Lian felt strange and took the initiative to swim downstream. Not long after, he swam to the bottom of the lake. He didn't see any strange mechanisms under the water, nor did he see any wind or water masters. He frowned and thought for a moment before swimming upstream. After a moment, Xie Lian broke through the water and took a few breaths. He wiped the water off his face, only then did he discover that the scenery on the shore was already different!
Beside the Black Water Lake, there was now an additional iron prison. It was the one that was reflected in the water just now.
But other than that, the rest of the scenery by the lake was exactly the same. Moreover, it was excessively quiet, which made it seem extremely strange. Shi Wudu had already come ashore and was smashing the lock of the iron prison with a huge rock. He was the Water God. Now that he had entered the territory of another powerful Water Master, he could not mobilize the water in his domain. He was like a beast without teeth and claws. Xie Lian and Hua Cheng came up to the table. When Shi Wudu saw Xie Lian, his eyes lit up. He raised his hand and said, "Martial God! Good timing! Quick, use your Martial God's method to deal with it! "
"…"
Xie Lian thought to himself, 'Now everyone knows how good the War God is.' He silently stepped forward and kicked the lock, causing it to shatter. With another kick, the cell door opened wide. Shi Wudu rushed in and said, "Qing …"
Unexpectedly, before he could rush in, a bunch of people rushed out from inside, wailing like ghosts and howling like wolves, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
This group of people were all unkempt and unkempt. They were skinny, their eyes were lifeless, and their clothes did not cover their bodies. They were so dirty that it was as if they had not bathed for ten years. Their ribs were protruding out in rows, and their hands were clawing wildly. They beat their chests and stomped their feet. It was a terrifying sight. Their mouths were also screaming like ghosts, like a torrent of turbid water flowing out. Shi Wudu was simply stunned.
However, these people only escaped and did not bother him. Hence, after being stunned for a moment, he did not care anymore and continued to rush in, "Qing …!"
After a few steps, he suddenly staggered. The floor was extremely slippery, and he almost fell. Moreover, there was an indescribable stench coming from within the iron prison. Xie Lian could smell it even before he entered. He held his breath. Shi Wudu covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves and continued to rush in. Finally, he shouted, "Qing Xuan?!"
The prison was pitch-black. Private cries and strange whispers could be heard. After a while, a voice said, "… Brother …"
Sure enough, Shi Qing Xuan was sitting in the deepest part of the iron prison, leaning against a wall. On the wall was the only high window in the iron prison. The moonlight that seeped through the window made his entire body pale. And beside him, a group of dirty weird people surrounded him. Some of them were covered in ulcers, some were squeaking like pigs, some were thinking that they were chickens pecking at rice, and some were hugging Shi Qing Xuan, crying and calling him baby. They were all crazy.
Shi Qing Xuan was a God Official back then, and he had never fallen into such a situation in his life. Shi Wudu went up and blasted, "Scram! What kind of ghost is this! "
Even though he and Shi Qing Xuan looked alike, their auras were completely different. Now that his mana was greatly reduced, he was even more powerful. Those crazy people were so scared that they covered their heads and scurried away. Xie Lian could not help but feel pity. Shi Qing Xuan also said, "Brother, don't hit them, they are not little ghosts. These … are all living people! "
It was absolutely true. Even though these people looked more like ghosts than ghosts, but upon closer inspection, they were all living people. Xie Lian could not help but be slightly startled, and thought, "Why did the Black Water Xuan Ghost lock up such a group of people here?"
However, Shi Wudu did not care about this. He raised the longevity golden lock with one hand and grabbed Shi Qing Xuan's arm with the other, and said, "How did you get here? Where are you hurt? "
Shi Qing Xuan's body was indeed dirty, and his leg was bleeding a little, but it seemed to be fine. He said, "We don't know how we got here, we fainted after a wave hit us, and when we woke up, we were already here. It's just a small injury, it's not a big deal! Brother Ming's injuries are more serious. "
Only then did the few of them realize that Ming Yi was lying on the ground at the side. His complexion was extremely bad, but it was not bad because he was unhappy. Xie Lian said, "What happened to Master Earth?"
Shi Qing Xuan said, "It seems that he was bitten by something in the sea. The teeth and thorns of those bonefish are covered in green moss, they are all poisonous! I gave him all the medicine I had on me, but … sigh. "
Xie Lian squatted down, wanting to take a closer look, but he almost fainted from the stench here. Looking around, there were some wooden buckets, and the buckets were filled with swill. There was a rancid and moldy smell, as well as the rotting smell of pus and blood, and even the terrifying smell of a chamber pot that had not been poured for a few months.
Shi Wudu could not bear it anymore, and said, "Such a disgusting taste, this Black Water Chen Zhou's taste is not that good either. Qing Xuan, let's go! "
He grabbed Shi Qing Xuan and dragged him out, but Shi Qing Xuan said, "I'm fine, I don't need help." He picked up Ming Yi, and only then did he slowly leave the iron prison.
However, it was easy to come in, but difficult to leave. The border passage of the Black Water Lake had already been sealed. After going into the water a few times, and then coming out of the lake, the scenery did not change at all, proving that they were indeed left in the Black Water Lake Border, unable to get out.
Shi Qing Xuan said, "Where's General Pei?"
Shi Wudu said, "I let Brother Pei stay outside, he should also think of a way."
Xie Lian said, "I let General Pei go build the coffin boat first, wait for you guys to get out, then immediately leave."
Shi Wudu said, "If he finishes building the coffin boat, he can go back and report first, then come find us."
However, Ming Yi was already injured, although he did not know how strong the poison was, it was better to leave as soon as possible, he was afraid that they could not wait that long. After thinking for a moment, Xie Lian said, "Although this Black Water Xuan ghost lives in seclusion overseas, he should not stay forever, right? Could it be that when he wants to go out, he has to cross the entire Black Water Ghost Domain? "
Shi Wudu said, "Yes, you are right. There must be a place on this island that can shrink a thousand miles. "
Originally, he did not treat Xie Lian differently, but now that they had gone through a disaster together, and Xie Lian had saved Shi Qing Xuan several times, he naturally looked at him in a different light, and so he did not hesitate to agree. At this time, Ming Yi slightly raised his hand, and Shi Qing Xuan said, "Brother Ming? What do you want to say? "
As if to save energy, Ming Yi did not open his mouth, and only raised his hand higher. Everyone looked in the direction of his raised hand, and saw a dark building standing in the depths of the forest.
Ming Yi lowered his hand, and said in a hoarse voice, "That place … … What does it do, do you know?"
Xie Lian said, "I don't know. When we first came here, we did not see this thing. "
Shi Wudu narrowed his eyes, and said, "Then it should be the Black Water Xuan ghost's Netherworld Water Mansion."
Rumor had it that the residence of the Black Water Xuan ghost was called the Netherworld Water Mansion. After coming to a conclusion, Shi Wudu said, "Let's go."
He actually did not avoid the taboo, and directly set off there. Although it seemed reckless, in this situation, what else could they do other than leave?
If just now, they had been circling around the other person's courtyard, then now they were going to break into the other person's door. Xie Lian whispered to Hua Cheng, "San Lang, if it is inconvenient for you, don't follow."
Hua Cheng's expression also became serious, and he said, "Let's go, brother, leave early."
Xie Lian nodded, and did not say anything. But he could faintly see that Hua Cheng seemed to have some misgivings. Moreover, it wasn't because of the owner of this place, but because of something else.
In his heart, he felt that something wasn't right. He thought of many small questions that he had accumulated for a long time, and felt slightly uneasy. Not long after, the group of people ignored the group of crazily running around, and passed through the forest, arriving in front of the eerie black building.
Only when they arrived did they discover that this Netherworld Water Mansion was actually a majestic hall, and its specifications were similar to those of the top Wind Master Hall and Navy Master Hall. The hall's door was tightly shut, and the few of them walked up several steps. Xie Lian stood outside the door, and knocked on the door, and said in a clear voice, "Sorry for disturbing you. It is truly an accident that we came here, and we are truly sorry. "
No one answered. He calmed his mind, and slowly pushed open the door of the hall.
Originally, with Xie Lian's many years of experience and past practice, even if there was something inside, he would not come out to greet them the moment he opened the door. Who knew that he would open the door and slap his face. The first thing he saw was a horrifying thing.
In the middle of the spacious hall, there was actually a person sitting upright. And this person, was dressed in black, and his face was snow white — —
It was actually a skeleton!
Xie Lian immediately closed the door with a "pa" sound.
He thought to himself, "Did I open the door in the wrong way? Normally I wouldn't show you such a thing right away?"
He originally wanted to greet him again, but Shi Wudu walked past him, and pushed open the two doors, and scoffed, "Since you are already here, are you still afraid that he won't treat you well?"
Everyone slowly walked into the hall, and slightly approached the black clothed skeleton. Xie Lian carefully sized it up and said, "What kind of person's skeleton is this? Why is it being enshrined here? "
Mingyi frowned, and said, "… Isn't General Pei alone? It can't be him, right? "
It really wasn't impossible. Shi Wudu was slightly shocked, and took a few looks, and then said, "It shouldn't be. This skeleton is even flatter than General Pei. "
Suddenly, Shi Qingxuan said, "Wait."
Everyone looked at him, and Shi Qingxuan said, "Isn't this question very simple? This is the Netherworld Water Mansion. The only things that can be placed in the Netherworld Water Palace are … "
