Twilight Boundary

Finally, the feeling of falling gradually disappeared, the wind whistling in his ears became weaker, and Hu Ma also fell to the ground.

In other words, this is not the ground, but the weight has finally become lighter, and Hu Ma has the feeling of stepping on something.

To describe it accurately, it is that the person who entered the water finally reached the bottom of the lake and was able to stand, but it was different from standing in the real world of living people.

It was only then that he slowly picked up the lantern in his hand and looked around with the faint light.

As soon as he raised his eyes, he immediately felt waves of yin energy rushing into his eyes.

It was sour and cold, as if wet mud had entered the eye sockets, making the swelling extremely uncomfortable. I could only feel that there were masses of black mist in front of my eyes, which kept spreading and gathering.

After doing this several times, a blurry scene appeared in front of him, which shocked him.

"This, is the underworld?"

Humans have three souls. Most of the souls left in the world are body-guarding souls. The reincarnated souls go to the realm of the dead, also known as the underworld.

Although he is a descendant of the main family of ghosts and takes over the Zhenzhen Mansion, which controls the Yin and Yang realms, Hu Ma has not really entered the underworld for the first time until now.

It felt fresh. With the white lantern in my hand, I could only see that there was a misty mist everywhere, so damp and cold that I couldn't see my fingers.

You can't see the sky when you look up, and you can't see the earth when you look down. The whole person has a feeling of being completely enveloped and unable to feel at ease.

The lantern in his hand could only illuminate a pitifully small area. Farther away, only vague shadows could be seen, sometimes as if they were sinking into the lake.

There was a dull sound, and occasionally some small movements were heard, and everything felt unreal.

Looking down at myself again, it was very real, but for some reason, the two arms were heavy, and even the sleeves were stretched inexplicably, almost sinking to the ground.

Hu Ma also raised her hand and looked into her sleeves, only to see that her sleeves were filled with gold, silver and copper coins.

This must have been burned to me by the old lady before?

He gasped subconsciously and found that he couldn't breathe. There was no breathing ability of a living person here.

However, whenever I have such needs, a little bit of heat is exhaled from my heart, and the feeling of depression disappears.

But Hu Ma could also clearly feel that his four pillars of Taoism would disappear and burn up due to this.

"When a living person reaches the underworld, every move he makes and every breath he takes must pay a price."

"When mortals come down, they pay with their lives, so the time must be strictly limited. After a long time, you will not be able to go up."

"People in the doorway need to work hard to come down. Although they stay longer than ordinary people, they will still be unable to go up after a long time."

"..."

"..."

While adapting, he slowed his breathing and walked forward.

As soon as I walked away, I felt the cold, wet and gloomy mist around me spreading like waves, and I gradually saw more things around me.

The countless blurry and twisted shadows around him gradually came into view.

Only then did Hu Ma see clearly that there were so many people around him. Some of them were riding donkeys, some were sitting in sedan chairs, and some were dragging their legs and crawling on the ground.

What's so majestic is that there are groups of soldiers and horses surrounding them, moving forward silently and soundlessly.

The tragic ones are wearing shackles, with knives stuck in their bodies, and some are holding their own heads in their hands, walking silently.

Each one is different, but the similarity is that most of them are wearing shrouds and round hats, and the clothes on their bodies have a papery texture.

The donkey he was riding on, the sedan he was sitting on, and even the maids and attendants around him looked like they were made of paper, but they had a stiff smile on their faces and followed him obediently.

"Are these all people who just died?"

Before Hu Ma came to do this, she asked Erguotou about it, and she probably knew something about the underworld.

Most of those who enter the underworld are dead, but some die for a long time and some die for a short time.

Only those who have just died will become accustomed to walking on the ground like themselves. After they have been dead for a long time, they will become lighter and lighter. Their feet will not touch the ground and they can only float.

And these dead people actually don't know where they are going. Unless some messenger comes to pick them up, or they are summoned by the prince, they will just keep wandering in confusion between the thick fog.

No reincarnation, no reincarnation.

After all, Hu Ma was a living person and had a purpose. Naturally, he walked faster than those around him. Suddenly, he heard a "ding-dong" sound.

But it was the copper bell on his wrist that swayed as he walked.

In this deathly silent world, the sound was particularly harsh, causing all the ghosts around to stop.

He held up his pale, stiff, bloodless faces, turned around dully, and looked at himself.

Hu Ma frowned, then pulled the bell off and threw it on the ground.

Wujiapi made it very clear that Granny Xue would definitely harm others.

Although she dropped people off and picked them up again, it was not a waste of time, but if she was discovered by the undercover, the crime would be huge. The number of malignant sores on her body would probably be doubled.

But it would save trouble if we just send people down without picking them up.

Not only can she earn living benefits, but she can also easily explain her secrets, and more importantly, she can also bribe her good friends below!

The gold and silver were indeed burned to her body, but she wanted to lend herself to her friends, and the bell was to make it easier for her to be found.

…

…

He was not afraid, after all, he had a lot of skills, and the Erguotou guy would soon find him. He threw the bell away and continued to move forward to appreciate the scenery of the underworld.

But he never thought that after taking a few steps, there was a rolling wind in front of him, and the fog rolled up, and the fierce ghosts floated.

"The bell rang, the bell rang..."

"The big gift from Mrs. Xue has arrived, where is it? Where is it?"

"..."

When he looked up, the ghosts walking on the ground around him were trembling with fear.

In the distance, the misty fog was stirred by something, and shadows were seen one by one, tall, short, fat and thin, gathering from all directions.

Some wore long robes and winged hats on their heads, some wore actors' clothes, their faces were painted white, and some had three heads and supported themselves on the ground with their arms.

A pair of copper bell-like eyes stared open grimly, and through the cold mist, the little ghost in the middle was frightened and cried.

Most of the souls still walking on the ground in the underworld were new souls, and they were also the targets of the evil ghosts. They did not come down directly from the underworld, but came from the gates of hell. They had been exploited. The remaining gold and silver paper money was just to make themselves suffer less in the underworld. If they were robbed now, they would have to endure the long years down there?

Even if they wanted the people above to burn some more, they had to wait until the 15th day of the seventh month to send a message through dreams...

For a while, everyone was so scared that they shouted: "Uncle Yincha, Uncle Yincha..."

"Come and take care of it!"

"..."

But it was their bad luck. They could sneak down here, which meant that this place was lawless and no one cared.

And above their heads, different ghosts came over, but they also looked hard at them, as if they were looking for something.

There were also little ghosts around him shouting: "He threw the bell, he threw the bell..."

"Grandpa, grandma, it's right in front, I can't find it..."

"..."

The ghosts were clearly looking for Hu Ma, but because Hu Ma threw the bell, they couldn't find it for a while, and they were anxious, but they all laughed strangely:

"Can't run away, can't run away..."

"..."

As he said that, a demon in a blue robe suddenly leaned forward, opened his bloody mouth, and a whistling wind suddenly blew up, and the new ghosts and ghosts around him, all the wisps of incense on their bodies were sucked out and flew into his mouth.

"Oh my..."

Seeing this, the other ghosts were afraid that he would eat it all by himself, so they opened their mouths wide and competed for the incense.

In addition, the little ghosts surrounding these tall ghosts also showed greed when they saw this, and took the opportunity to rush into the circle and pounce on the group of frightened ghosts.

Some grabbed their sleeves, took out the gold and silver ingots in their sleeves, and stuffed them into their arms.

Others pounced directly on the newly dead ghosts here, biting them, the big ghosts ate the meat, the small ghosts drank the soup, and the remaining incense and human aura on these new souls were gone.

These ghosts suffered a great disaster, how could they resist at all, they just cried and screamed in chaos.

"Humph!"

But at this time, Hu Ma sneered and his face sank.

Just now, I was still watching this group of evil ghosts in the underworld, each of them had great magic power, and if they climbed up, I'm afraid each of them would be considered a ghost king.

If you don't have the top skills to enter the mansion, don't even think about fighting with such a thing.

And this kind of ghost king is rare in the world of the living. If there are one or two in a state, it will be convenient for the people.

But in this underworld, there are so many at once?

But he didn't care. The reason why the person who keeps watch on the New Year can go to the netherworld in the flesh is because the person who keeps watch on the New Year has a strong foundation. Living people dare not provoke him. Even in the netherworld, he is not easy to provoke.

With a cold snort, he has already stirred up his soul and showed his Great Mighty Heavenly General Seal Dharma Image.

Originally, he wanted to keep a low profile and only used three points of strength, but he never thought that when the soul was stirred, a gloomy wind suddenly blew, sweeping all directions, and a fierce and evil spirit grew on his body.

It was as high as seven or eight feet, more than twice as tall as those evil ghosts that gathered in groups, with a green face and fangs, and four arms.

Two hands clenched fists, two hands loosened, a pair of fierce eyes opened, more white than black, full of gloomy eyes, mouth grinning, like a blood basin, devouring human flesh and blood.

"Ah also..."

Hu Ma himself was stunned for a moment. Why did he feel that the evil ghosts were rolling and rolling in the netherworld when he used the Great Mighty Heavenly General Dharma Image?

But before he could think about it, he had to fight these evil ghosts in the underworld first, and make a quick decision to avoid attracting the underworld.

Unexpectedly, when his Dharma image appeared, there was a dead silence all around, and the invisible fear seemed to make all sounds disappear, and it spread rapidly in all directions.

Wherever he passed, there was a cold fear, like an invisible big hand, pinching countless necks.

The next moment, he saw ghosts scattered, ghosts were confused, and they shouted in fear:

"Grandpa God..."

"The big-bellied ghost king is back, he really came to swallow up the underworld..."
