Chapter 939: Records of the Underworld
"Ding Ding Ding..."
"Dang Dang Dang..."
The sound of chains or locks colliding, cold and desolate, with the unique metallic texture of iron, gradually came into Shi Hao's ears from far to near, from vague to clear.
His body shook.
Then he looked in the direction of the sound.
There were giant peaks one after another, endless, and each peak was black, as if it was covered with ink, and in the shadows, it seemed to have life. Even those prehistoric magic mountains buried in the years were not as shocking as one-tenth of these big peaks.
Because it was so spectacular.
Even from Shi Hao's perspective, it was too magnificent.
But this kind of magnificence always made him feel that it was not close, as if these mountain shadows were all mirages, like mirages in the sea.
"Hoo hoo hoo..."
"Hoo hoo hoo..."
The endless black fog poured out from the gap in the mountain stream, like the mist exhaled by some unimaginable ancient beast, with a burst of heat.
The black fog was like a tide, surging and rushing, like a galloping army, lingering on the top of the black magic mountain, rushing towards Shi Hao's position.
Then, the endless black fog rushed like an ancient beast with its fangs and claws bared.
At the same time, the sound that seemed to be the collision of iron objects became clearer and clearer.
The black fog covered the place like a curtain.
Among the peaks, a huge portal loomed and suddenly broke into Shi Hao's sight.
Because the portal was so majestic that the sky and the earth could not describe its vastness and magnificence.
The portal was dark and rose from the ground, as if it had surpassed this world.
The extremely ancient breath rushed to the face.
"Squeak..."
At this time.
As if pushed by an invisible huge force, the originally closed portal suddenly opened slowly.
Jiang Huai's eyes were sharp, and the moment the creaking sound was heard, his spiritual sense instantly explored it.
In his perception,
a long team came out of the world inside the door.
Shi Hao quickly looked over.
He saw that the long team was neatly arranged, with men and women, old and young, human-like, and other races-like, all different.
The sound of the iron colliding was not from chains or locks, but from the things that the group of people were carrying.
It was bulging, like a small mountain, a big bag full of various bottles and jars, so every step those people took, there would be a clanging sound from their bodies.
Shi Hao was curious.
Somewhat confused.
At the same time, he was even more surprised.
Although these figures looked like living beings, in fact, they were not real flesh bodies, just like in the Void God Realm.
It was just that compared to the Void God Realm that had been so powerful when he was young, this unknown world was more advanced.
Because if he hadn't used the Sky Eye in the Only Cave Heaven, he wouldn't have been able to see it at all.
Shi Hao counted them in his mind, and there were probably tens of thousands of them.
Strangely, each of them was carrying a large gray snakeskin bag.
And their expressions looked anxious. After coming out from behind the door, they stopped right where they were, with their heads opened and looking forward, as if they were waiting for something very important.
"Buzz..."
Just then.
Something strange happened.
An unimaginable hurricane came and whistled past, with a strong wind, and even Shi Hao was blown all over the place.
Fortunately, the hurricane came suddenly and disappeared suddenly.
When the hurricane disappeared, the surging black fog that had originally shrouded this place disappeared and retreated into the door.
This is what was revealed here.
It was a large open area.
It was paved with blue stone slabs, and some corners were covered with moss, which was damp. It looked quite old, with a sense of heaviness and history.
"Boom!"
In a certain place, the blue stone slabs vibrated.
Something similar to an arrow tower suddenly broke out of the ground and rushed out.
The thing similar to an arrow tower was not big, nor was it very majestic. The top emitted a bright moonlight, like a warm color, covering the place.
The figures carrying large and small bags saw this and unloaded the packages behind them at the same time.
The packages were opened, and there were all kinds of iron sheets and wooden boards, and even tables, chairs and benches.
Not long after, the place was filled with all kinds of stalls.
Shi Hao looked surprised.
These seemed to be just souls, but they were all vendors...
Came here just to set up stalls?
Shi Hao's expression was slightly gloomy, and he looked at the square vigilantly, thinking secretly in his heart.
It was clear that he and others were still fighting bloody battles with the strange creatures the moment before, and the next moment, it was like sleeping in a big dream, and he opened his eyes to such a strange place.
Senior Liu, Brother Gu Chen, Brother Tu, Ten Crown King, Exiled Immortal, God Liu and others were all gone.
Could it be that this is the lair of the strange clan? !
Otherwise, why is this place so strange?
They had already lost that battle.
But Shi Hao was undecided.
Because he did not feel the slightest strange aura here.
In fact, it was quite the opposite.
Although this place looks gloomy.
But in the coldness, there is a sacred state in it.
It is completely different from the aura that the strange clan can emit.
…
In the empty square.
There is construction going on in some places.
Just like building some kind of restaurant or shop.
The group of ghosts setting up stalls each designated a territory and quickly built simple but unique stalls.
This is the underworld, the underworld, and the products displayed on the stalls are naturally impossible to deal with.
If placed in the human world, it would definitely make people’s hair stand on end——
Because many stalls are filled with eyeballs, hearts, lungs, and even complete limbs of various sizes and shapes.
They are all neatly arranged on the cold stone slab, some are still beating, steaming, and very fresh.
A huge iron pot was set up in front of a stall in front of a vendor dressed in coarse linen.
There was no firewood under the pot, but a strange blue flame was burning, as if it was fire brought from another world.
As the flame jumps, the hot oil in the pot gradually boils, making a "sizzling" sound.
The linen vendor skillfully coated the eyeballs, heart and other organs with a thin layer of batter, and then put them into the hot oil pan.
With a "squeaking" sound, these fried goods tumble in the oil and become golden and crispy on the surface.
When it was completely fried, the linen vendor quickly took it out, skewered it with bamboo skewers, and sprinkled it with a layer of special condiments. The condiments were also golden in color. As soon as they were sprinkled, the aroma was so fragrant that it made people laugh. He swallowed involuntarily.
"It's fried goods. The fresh eyeballs, heart, and lungs are all produced by myself. The quality is absolutely guaranteed. If you get a fake, you'll get three for one, so you can be honest!"
The linen vendor yelled at the top of his lungs.
Haodu couldn't help but swallow a little.
Although these fried things look weird and a bit inexplicable, not to mention, when paired with the golden condiments, they actually smell particularly good.
Check out the correct version one by one!
But after listening to the vendor's shouts, Shi Hao came back to his senses and looked at the location of the other person's belly with curiosity.
It was covered by a blue coarse linen garment. A gust of wind blew and the linen garment rustled, and the middle part was slightly sunken inward.
Then, Shi Hao looked like the eyes of a hawker. The position of the eyeballs was extremely empty. It seemed that these things were produced and sold by him as he said.
Some customers gathered around and bargained with the vendor. In the end, all the freshly fried "fried goods" were sold out in a short time.
"Where exactly is this place?"
Jiang Huai blocked the taste and rejected the other party's promotion.
The taste seems to have a stimulating effect on the taste buds.
He looked to another place, where more figures gathered
The stall owner is a hawker with a pig's head and a body. He is tall and thick, and he is selling pig's head meat.
Someone went over to buy it, and the other person first shouted "OK", and then with a quick hand and a sharp knife, he heard a "chi..." sound, which actually meant that his head was cut off forcefully.
However, its head seems to be endless. After being chopped off, it will grow back instantly.
Shi Hao was surprised because it was not a magical power.
Although the head is not as important as the soul, it is still an extremely critical part. How can it be cut off and lengthened without using some means?
At this moment, there was a sudden exclamation from the crowd. The originally crowded crowd quickly retreated to both sides and looked into the depths of the black mist.
Two extremely tall figures broke through the black fog and walked slowly over.
The leader was a giant with a human body and a bull's head. His body was tall and powerful, and his muscles were strong, as if they were poured with iron juice. He held an iron chain in one hand and a steel fork in the other. His upper body was naked, and he exuded an intimidating aura.
Following closely behind him was a giant with a huge horse head.
Holding a spear, he was also big and round-waisted, five to six meters tall, and had a body of steel and iron bones, making him intimidating.
The appearance of these two giant shadows instantly silenced the originally bustling market.
The ghosts looked like they were watching a good show. They were either whispering to each other, or talking about it, as if they were watching a crowd.
Shi Hao is very familiar with it, because this is his specialty.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, the laws of the underworld are so strict. It doesn't matter if you lose even one point. Violators will be thrown into the frying pan. How dare there be people who dare to miss a pound? They are simply not afraid of pain."
An old man stroked his beard and shook his head.
"Who says it's not? I just don't know which one has been found out." A young man next to him echoed, with a look of gloating on his face.
"There's a good show to watch."
I saw the bull-headed giant holding an iron chain, striding towards the linen vendor who was producing and selling his own products.
When the merchant saw this, he immediately trembled all over and turned pale. He had obviously done something wrong and collapsed to the ground.
The Minotaur pulled him up mercilessly, and the iron chain made a clattering sound, as if it was dragging him into the endless abyss. The horse-headed giant followed closely behind, drawing sparks on the ground with his spear, ready to execute the laws of the underworld at any time.
"You, why do you say I'm short of money?" The linen vendor tried to defend himself with a trembling voice.
"Hmph, someone said that you were missing some eyeballs after I bought you, and you still want to quibble?" The Minotaur snorted coldly, and tightly wrapped the chain in his hand around the merchant's neck, "Let's go with me to see the King of Hell. !”
With that said, the bull-headed man directly escorted the linen merchant towards the depths of the black mist, followed closely by the horse-headed giant.
at the same time.
Underworld, another place.
A large river flows rapidly, and an ancient stone bridge stands on it.
It is covered with mottled moss and weathered stone patterns, and every brick and tile tells the story of endless years.
Under the bridge, the sound of water flow rumbled, but its shape was invisible. Under the dark depths, it seemed like an abyss connected to the cliff, swallowing up all light and sound, which was terrifying.
At one end of the stone bridge, there was a huge iron pot. The pot was steaming, and a pot of rich soup was boiling, exuding an alluring aroma.
In front of the big pot, Mrs. Lin Li was dressed in simple gray clothes, holding a long-handled spoon, and was concentrating on stirring the thick soup in the pot.
The movements are skillful and deft.
Since becoming Meng Po, Mrs. Lin Li has been diligent and diligent. During this period, the workload has increased sharply, and she rarely has the opportunity to return to the earthly world to reunite with her relatives, Old Man Lin, and her children. She is thinking of returning to the earthly world to rest for a while after she has been busy for a while. Time, anyway, adults stipulate that holidays can be accumulated.
But just as Lin Li was immersed in her work, a few hazy figures slowly walked out on one side of the bridge.
Upon seeing this, Mrs. Lin Li immediately put down the spoon in her hand, skillfully took out the bowls and chopsticks, and prepared to welcome the guests.
However, when she took a closer look, her face instantly turned pale, and she hurried forward to meet him.
"Old man... boss, second child... why are you here?" Lin Li's voice was filled with unbelievable astonishment, and her eyes were full of surprise and worry.
I never expected that Cao Cao would arrive just as he was thinking of Cao Cao.
This is the underworld, the home of the dead souls.
My old man is deeply appreciated by adults. His eldest son Lin Chen and his second son Lin Zhuang have both attained Taoism and become immortals. They have endless lifespan and should not appear here under any circumstances.
Could it be that something big happened in the village?
Mrs. Lin Li was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
Old Man Lin and others gradually recovered from their confusion.
"Hey, old woman, when did you come back?" Old Man Lin smiled immediately when he saw Mrs. Lin Li.
"What's back? It's you who came in!" Lin Li rolled her eyes at him helplessly, her tone full of eagerness and confusion.
"Coming in? Where did you come in?" Old man Lin looked confused, and the two brothers Lin Chen and Lin Zhuang behind him were also confused and at a loss.
Lin Li took a deep breath and tried to calm down, "Old man, boss, boss, second brother, look where we are now."
Old man Lin followed Lin Li's guidance and noticed their environment.
The dark and deep water under the bridge, which seems to hide the cliff of thousands of feet, and the steaming pot of thick soup at the end of the bridge...
"This...is this the underworld?" Old Man Lin quickly reacted.
Lin Li said anxiously: "Yes, this is the underworld. Why...why do you appear here? Tell me quickly, did something big happen?"
Old man Lin immediately said everything.
"Your Excellency, are you bleeding?" Lin Li's face changed dramatically when she heard this. How terrifying would it be for an enemy that even Your Excellency cannot resist? !
Old man Lin was talking and suddenly froze.
The adults are bleeding, and they have entered the underworld where only dead souls can enter...
Doesn't this mean...
"My lord, the old man is incompetent and failed to help you in the end. When he dies, he still has to be loved by you."
Old man Lin burst into tears.
If it hadn't been for the underworld created by the adults, they would probably have lost all their souls, and would have truly extinguished all life.
At this age, crying is heartbreaking.
"You old man, I have never seen you cry so sadly when I was not here." Mrs. Lin rolled her eyes at Old Man Lin, and immediately her eyes turned red like Old Man Lin.
