To return to the vicinity of Xuanyang Village, you must find out the direction of Xuanyang Village.

But Chu Yang has never known the way. Now he is in the vast Fengdu Mountains. He can't even figure out where he is, and he can't figure out where Xuanyang Village is.

Fortunately, he has Lou Xiaoyu by his side.

As a solitary cultivator who wanders around all year round, Lou Xiaoyu has his own way of determining the direction and identifying the route.

She fumbled around in the Qiankun bag for a while, and soon took out a small antique paper lantern.

The small paper lantern emits a faint orange light, but does not smell of fire at all. It is obviously a kind of magic weapon, but its spiritual power is extremely weak.

Chu Yang asked curiously: "What is this?"

"This thing is called the Underworld Lamp. It was originally a low-level magic weapon used by underworld guides to attract the souls of the dead. It can indicate the direction of the Fengdu Ghost City. Because it is simple to make and low-cost, it has been copied in large quantities by casual cultivators for use. Reference in special circumstances to confirm your bearings..."

Lou Xiaoyu started to introduce this small paper lantern to Chu Yang, but felt a little strange in his heart.

Chu Yang was powerful and had many strange tricks, but he knew nothing about such common sense things. He didn't look like a casual cultivator who had reached the realm of the Ghost King.

Could it be a new ghost who has only been in the underworld for a few years?

However, how could a new ghost who had just come to the underworld become the Ghost King so quickly?

Could it be that he is a high-level monk, but for some unknown reason, his soul mistakenly entered the underworld...

Lou Xiaoyu suddenly thought of Chu Yang claiming to be Sun Wukong's disciple, and suddenly he felt enlightened.

Only this explanation is reasonable

.

Chu Yang didn't know that Lou Xiaoyu could guess his origin with such clues, and still asked curiously: "Oh? Doesn't this mean it's a compass? It's such a useful thing, why haven't I seen those powerful ghost cultivators? Use it?”

Lou Xiaoyu came back to his senses slightly and said again: "The big forces... They have their own guide talismans, which can roughly determine the direction and area of ​​their mountain gates and strongholds. As long as they return to a familiar area, they will naturally find it easily. Their own mountain gate...so they don’t need the Huangquan lamp.”

"Oh, so this is just a tool commonly used by casual cultivators..."

"It's not very common. We casual cultivators are always running around. We are quite familiar with the entire Western Ghost Realm, and we generally don't get lost... except for some special circumstances."

"What are special circumstances?"

"Some accidents happened to Biru, and he was suddenly transported to some unfamiliar area. He didn't know where he was for a while... Of course, in a situation like yours, you can usually use the Huangquan Lantern as a compass."

"Ahem, what does the Underworld Guide do?"

Chu Yang knew that Lou Xiaoyu was making fun of him for being a road idiot, so he quickly changed the subject in embarrassment.

Lou Xiaoyu pursed her lips and said with a smile: "That is a part-time job performed by the living beings in the upper world. They guide and guide the newly dead souls in the upper world on behalf of the underworld. They have the ability to walk between yin and yang..."

"Walking Yin and Yang? Are they those Yin and Yang gentlemen who can freely travel between the underworld and the Yang world?"

Chu Yang had also heard of this type of errand, where a living person held a negative job in the underworld, and relied on his special identity and certain professional skills to make a prosperous life in the upper world.

Although these living people do not count

He has vast supernatural powers and profound magic power, but he can freely travel between Yin and Yang. This is the authority and ability that is most enviable by creatures in both worlds.

Chu Yang's heart moved. If he could also have this kind of Yin status, wouldn't he be able to go back to the Chinese world and contact Sun Houhou?

"Not only Mr. Yin Yang, but ordinary people can also obtain the status of guide to the underworld, as long as they have this fate and opportunity."

Lou Xiaoyu continued to explain.

Chu Yang quickly asked, "Then how can we determine whether we have this fate and opportunity?"

"It depends on the birth date. If your destiny is not strong enough, you won't be able to do this job."

"Haha, if the fist is hard enough, the fate will definitely not be much different... I think I am definitely qualified, but I just don't know where to apply? Is it the underworld recruitment office?"

"I don't know if your destiny is considered tough, but it's useless for you to think about it now. You definitely don't have this chance anyway."

Lou Xiaoyu seemed to see through Chu Yang's thoughts and gave up his thoughts mercilessly.

Chu Yang quickly said: "Why? Is it because I am too handsome?"

Lou Xiaoyu said helplessly: "This has nothing to do with whether you are handsome or not...Brother Chu, you are a ghost cultivator. The guides selected by the underworld to lead the way to the underworld are all living people in the upper world. How can you give a ghost to go to the upper world to cause trouble?" Chance?"

"Hey, what's wrong with the ghost cultivator? I'm not an evil ghost or a resentful ghost. How can I cause trouble randomly if I go to the underworld..."

"That's useless. Even if the government is willing to let you be a guide to the underworld, you still can't be a guide now. Since the order of the underworld collapsed, those guides have no longer been seen in the underworld... Maybe

It's because the passage between the Yin and Yang worlds is closed, or maybe they think the underworld is too dangerous. In short, the Yin position of guide to the underworld no longer exists. "

"The underworld is dangerous...but haven't they always been coming and going like this before?"

"It used to be in the past, when the order of the underworld was still there, and everything in the underworld was under the control of the government. No one would easily provoke these people in the government. But now there are warlords and bandits everywhere, and the government is hiding in a corner and not doing anything. , if these guides to the underworld happen to encounter ghost cultivators, they will inevitably die, and any number of ghost soldiers and fierce ghosts can kill them..."

"Isn't it true? The guide to Huangquan is so weak?"

"They are just ordinary human beings. They just have the privilege of traveling between yin and yang. How powerful can they be?"

"Since they are all ordinary people, why do the ghost cultivators in the underworld need to hurt them? No one has any grievances and no one wants to offend the government, right?"

"Because they have a lot of merit, no matter whether you can use these merits to practice or not, you will make a fortune if you catch them and sell them for money, and they also have a yin job, which allows them to freely travel between the two worlds. It represents a certain destiny and will of the underworld. If it can be used... its value may be equivalent to that of a divine weapon."

"Oh? Then they are really dangerous. If there happens to be someone who leads the way to hell... and is trapped in the underworld when the passage between Yin and Yang is closed, wouldn't he become a piece of Tang Monk meat?"

"Absolutely. If their identities are discovered, then the major forces will definitely find ways to capture them.

They, control them... This doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, right? "
