Chapter 230 The Yellow Springs Ferryman

After walking a distance, the front suddenly opened up, and they actually walked out of the mine!

The sky and the earth were pitch black, with no stars, sun or moon, only loneliness and coldness.

A river was across the front, with yellow corpse water flowing in the river, and countless corpses floating on it.

The cold Yin Qi emanated from the river, like a knife cutting on the body.

Ji Chen thought of the message on the stone wall in the mine. Could it be that he really reached the underworld?

Is this the Yellow Spring River that separates the Yin and Yang?

This scene really surprised and shocked Ji Chen!

When a certain ancient force was mining, they actually dug into the underworld and the Yellow Spring River.

Ji Chen looked around and was cautious. Seeing that there was no potential danger, he walked out of the mine carefully and walked towards the river.

His hand was already on the handle of the knife to prevent accidents that might happen at any time and the floating corpses in the river.

The river was very wide, and the opposite side could not be seen. There was fog floating on it, which not only blocked the line of sight, but also blocked the exploration of mental power.

Until Ji Chen approached the river, there was nothing unusual about the floating corpse in the river, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

If the corpse in the river suddenly jumped up, he would have no choice but to run away.

Ji Chen finally understood why the Corpse Refining Sect occupied this place. For the Corpse Refining Sect, this was simply a holy place.

Looking back at the mine behind him, there were four big words on the dark mine, "It's better to turn back."

Is this a reminder that the front is more dangerous, don't cross the river easily.

Ji Chen didn't dare to cross the river casually, let alone wade in the river. This river is strange, and I don't know what kind of terrifying creatures are in it.

"Hua La La!"

It seems that the sound of iron chains came from the depths of the fog, and the breath became even colder.

Ji Chen was awed in his heart. Could it be that some terrifying creatures in the river have revived!

Just thinking about it, the river water gurgled, as if something came out of the river, accompanied by the sound of the iron chain tightening, and the cold breath spread all over the sky. The biting coldness made people frightened, turned into a tangible substance, and touched the skin like a needle.

Ji Chen was shocked. Deep in the fog, there seemed to be extremely terrifying creatures bound. The yin energy emitted alone made people tremble. This further confirmed Ji Chen's idea that the river should not be crossed easily.

Ding Zhao and his team should not have crossed the river either. They were not that stupid.

Ji Chen felt that he was locked by two cold breaths.

He wanted to leave this ghost place quickly, so he looked up and down the river, but did not find any footprints. He didn't know whether Ding Zhao and his team went up or down.

After thinking for a while, Ji Chen decided to go down the river to see if he could find anything, whether there was a bridge or a ferry.

In this way, he walked down for dozens of miles without finding anything. He had no choice but to return and go up the Yellow Spring River again.

Fortunately, he did not encounter any strange creatures during the period, and the corpses in the river did not mutate. I don't know if it was because they were trapped in the river, or if they were really dead bodies.

He walked up the river for dozens of miles and suddenly found a pier. It was a small pier built by dry bones.

A pier means there is a ferry.

Ji Chen walked over, stood on the dock, and looked around.

There was an extinguished human skin lantern on the dock, hanging on a white bone.

Ji Chen took a closer look and found that it was a corpse oil lamp.

He thought of some legends about the Yellow Spring River. The corpse oil lamp is a soul-guiding lamp. After being lit, it can attract a ferry and ferry people to the other side.

So, a ray of fire came out of Ji Chen's fingertips, and he lit the corpse oil lantern. The pale light illuminated the dock.

A moment later, he heard the sound of water, like the sound of the oars stirring the water when rowing a boat.

Sure enough, there was a boat, and this lantern was the signal.

Soon, a small boat appeared in Ji Chen's eyes.

On a boat, an old man in a straw raincoat slowly rowed the boat out of the fog. On the bow, there was a lantern hanging, and the pale light illuminated the surrounding area.

The boat slowly approached the shore, and when Ji Chen saw the old man's face clearly, he took a breath of cold air.

The shrunken skin stuck to his face, pale as paper, without a trace of moisture, wrinkled as if dried by the wind, and the two eyes were two deep holes, with two balls of ghost-like green light inside.

This was simply a corpse, with yin and death lingering on his body, looking extremely gloomy and terrifying.

"You should know the rules!"

A sour voice came out of the old corpse's mouth, as if the sound of bones rubbing against each other.

Ji Chen: ? ? ?

Rules?

What rules?

He felt that someone was talking to him about the rules everywhere.

But he still nodded, pretending to know a lot.

After all, it was the first time to come to this ghost place, so it was better to be cautious and not show timidity.

Then, he stood there, with no intention of boarding the boat.

Ji Chen looked at the old corpse, and the old corpse waited for Ji Chen, and the man and the corpse looked at each other.

After waiting for a while, seeing that Ji Chen had no intention of getting on the boat, the old corpse put the bamboo pole in his hand into the water and prepared to row the boat away.

At this moment, Ji Chen stepped on the bow of the boat with one foot, ready to get on the boat.

Seeing this, the old corpse stopped and waited for Ji Chen to board the boat.

However, Ji Chen had one foot on the bow and the other foot on the dock.

The old corpse put away the bamboo pole and waited.

Ji Chen hesitated for a moment, then retracted his foot and stood on the horse's head, seemingly giving up on boarding the boat.

The old corpse: ???

He waited for a while and saw that Ji Chen still had no intention of getting on the boat. Then he put his pennies into the water and prepared to punt the boat and leave.

At this moment, Ji Chen put one foot on the bow of the ship and prepared to board the ship.

The old corpse stopped and put away the bamboo pole.

Then, Ji Chen took back his feet and stood on the dock.

The old corpse waited for a while, and when he saw that Ji Chen didn't get on the boat, he prepared to punt and leave.

Ji Chen stretched out his foot again and put it on the bow of the boat!

Ji Chen takes his foot back!

Ji Chen stretched out his foot!

Ji Chen takes his foot back!

Ji Chen stretched out his foot!

Ji Chen takes his foot back!

Old corpse:? ? ?

"For ferrying across the Huangquan River, we only charge merit money!"

The old corpse finally spoke, and he finally realized that this guy was probably coming here for the first time and didn't know the rules at all.

Ji Chen:? ? ?

What is merit money?

He had no idea or heard of it.

"If you don't have money, you can offset it with lifespan. One hundred years of lifespan is enough."

The old corpse showed a sly smile, which was unusually eerie, and took a sudden breath.

Ji Chen felt a breath flowing through his body, being sucked away by the old man. His heart tightened, and he quickly clung to himself, suppressed his origin, and took a look at his attributes.

When I saw this, I was shocked. My life span had been shortened by ten years.

Hold the grass!

Your mother!

Ji Chen was cursing his mother in his heart. He sucked him away like this and had ten years of life taken away from him.

If he hadn't discovered it quickly and stuck to his roots in time, he would have been sucked away a hundred years of life by this old corpse.

You must have been a prostitute in your lifetime!

So suckable!

The old corpse looked intoxicated and showed an excited smile. However, in Ji Chen's opinion, this smile was really hideous and terrifying.

Asking for a monthly ticket!
