Chapter 455: Palace of Souls
Suddenly I heard this fierce ghost say these words.
All of us present felt a "thump" in our hearts.
"What, is it going to collapse?"
Several of us spoke almost in unison.
Showing an expression of disbelief.
Are you kidding me?
How long has it been since we came in? This passage has collapsed sooner or later, but is it going to collapse now?
Just when I was about to continue asking what was going on.
The fierce ghost quickly changed his words again:
"Everyone, fellow Taoist priests, don't worry.
Although this ghostly place is about to collapse, it won't happen now.
Just these days.
The ghost itself suddenly became unstable, and multiple passage entrances and exits opened automatically.
This resulted in an influx of too much yang energy.
These buildings made of yin materials and yin materials will completely dissolve and dissipate if they are contaminated with yang energy.
Only when the entire building disappears will the passage collapse..."
Hearing the Dark Ghost King say this, a group of us breathed a sigh of relief.
So that's what happened.
But, I also heard it from this guy's mouth.
There is more than one Yin-Yang Gate in this magical ghost world.
In addition to the elevator location of Qinggang Building, there are other entrances and exits.
But those are not important. Our main goal now is to release those innocent souls.
Uncle Master took a deep breath and nodded:
"That's fine, as long as it's not too dangerous.
Now continue to lead the way and take us to the place where the dead souls are imprisoned!"
The Dark Ghost King did not dare to neglect and nodded repeatedly:
"Yes, yes! Please, please keep moving forward, keep moving forward!"
While talking, point the way forward.
Lao Mo pulled the rope and asked him to go forward.
Xia Qiuxi and I are on the left and right, be careful around you.
After all, this is a haunted place and one must always be careful.
We quickly walked out of these replicated fantasy garages.
We arrived at a large square of white stone bricks.
In the middle is the ghost palace.
But now when we come to this large square, the white stone bricks and buildings around it are all smelling black.
It is as if it has been eroded and is decomposing bit by bit.
It's slow, but looks weird.
We walked on this large decomposed square, moving forward step by step.
There wasn't a single plant around, just the diffuse black air and the sound of our footsteps, which was very permeable.
And this fierce ghost, while leading the way, introduced us to this "ghost place".
It is said that such abandoned Yin and Yang passages are very rare.
These passages were all built and connected by the underworld.
It is used to provide a passage for the souls of all places to leave the world and go to the Two Realms Mountains.
And here, there is a yin and yang passage with a ghost building, which is even rarer.
Because the channel exists, it has its own time limit.
Once abandoned, it will collapse and self-destruct.
And according to this fierce ghost, this phantom ghost has existed for at least eighty years.
Because of this evil spirit, he died for eighty years.
After his death, because he was good at flattering, he was taught some evil methods by Miao Nanzi and learned to practice.
At the same time, he was also appointed here to manage the soul ghosts.
He even proclaimed himself a king, dominating and dominating, and was arrogant.
I just didn't expect that it would fall into our hands.
He also begged us to spare his life...
As he talked, the evil ghost led us up the long steps and came to the inside of the ghost palace.
Inside the palace, it was relatively empty.
Most places are dark, and overall it looks like a government office.
There is no decoration, just strips of thick black wood.
In addition, inside the palace, cries of "wuwuwu" could be heard from time to time.
Those voices are those innocent souls imprisoned here.
The Black Ghost King said: These dead souls are all living souls used as fertilizer for the immortal rice.
His mission is to guard the souls of the dead here and to fertilize the immortal rice.
Every once in a while, many souls will be released.
After the immortal rice is planted, dedicated personnel will harvest it.
As for a living person like Chu Yue who strayed into this ghostly place, this was the first time in decades.
While we were talking, we had passed through several large rooms.
Entered a long passage.
The crying is louder here.
"Woooooooo..."
There are even ghosts shouting:
"Let me out, let me out..."
"..."
After a while, we reached the end of the passage.
There is a big black door here.
The Dark Ghost King stopped and humbly said to us:
"Fellow Taoist priests, those living souls are inside."
"Then why are you still standing there? Open it quickly?"
Uncle Master spoke coldly.
The ghost king showed a look of grievance:
"Tao, Taoist Master, I, my hands are tied..."
When the uncle saw this, he winked at Lao Mo.
When Lao Mo saw this, he glared at the Dark Ghost King fiercely:
"You better not play any tricks, otherwise you will be knocked out of your mind immediately."
"No, no, no, I don't dare. I definitely don't dare."
This fierce ghost said this, but I always felt that this guy was brewing some conspiracy.
Along the way, I didn't see a single ghost.
It went so smoothly.
I don’t know if I’m just being paranoid or overthinking, or something else.
Anyway, I am always wary of this ghost.
Next, Lao Mo loosened the black dog hair rope wrapped around the Black Ghost King.
As soon as the restraints were released, the evil ghost started to move.
And he said with a soft smile:
"Open the door, little one."
After saying that, the red tongue popped out of his mouth and stuck into the keyhole.
Just listen to the continuous "kaka" sound.
The big black door clanged with a muffled sound, and a burst of cold Yin Qi erupted.
Then it "buzzed" and turned on automatically.
Good guy, this door can be opened with your tongue...
The moment the door opened, all of us were stunned by the scene inside.
I saw a green will-o'-the-wisp burning in the big black door.
The interior space is very large, larger than an indoor basketball court.
But up and down, there are large iron cages hanging.
The cage is crowded with ghosts.
They held on to the iron cage bars and kept shaking.
It makes a "ding ding dong dong" sound.
Some asked for help, some struggled, and some cried.
On the ground, these are patches of rice.
It's the size of three basketball courts.
But these rice plants are not green, and the leaves are white.
Very thick and lush.
Shrouded in Yin Qi, it keeps swaying.
It makes a "wow-wow-wow" sound.
And those living souls who were tied up in the iron cage saw us coming in from the outside.
He started shouting wildly and shook the iron cage desperately;
"let me out."
"Please, let me go!"
"I don't want to be used as fertilizer, I don't want to lose my soul..."
"..."
The sound was very loud and noisy.
I raised my head briefly and counted.
There are more than a dozen large iron cages, with an average of twenty or thirty living souls in each cage.
Calculate it this way.
There are as many as four to five hundred souls tied up here...
