After Xue Ning and Shuang'er came out, Lao Yan said again: "Finally, I'd rather trouble the girl to come with us. Lao Yan would like to thank the girl again for her understanding."
"You don't have to be polite, village elders. This little girl is disturbing your village. That's how it should be. Please ask the village chief to lead the way and let's go together." Miss Xuening hurriedly catered to her, her tone of voice filled with indescribable guilt and guilt.
Lao Yan looked excited and made a gesture of invitation to Xu Ning to go first. If Xu Ning dared to go, he waved his hands repeatedly, indicating that Lao Yan should go first. After seeing Xu Ning's persistence, Lao Yan gave Xu Ning a gentle smile and took the lead.
Lead the villagers away.
Xue Ning followed silently, maybe unintentionally, maybe intentionally, but when these villagers were walking, they happened to surround Xu Ning in the middle.
Xue Ning was calm on the surface and couldn't think of anything else. However, Shuang'er was a little unable to hide her feelings at this time. She recalled the various reactions of Da Wuhui and Xu Ning, and the behavior of the villagers at this time, and she vaguely understood some things.
.
So, Shuang'er asked Lao Yan unabashedly: "Village chief, what kind of sacrificial activity is this? Who are you going to sacrifice?"
Lao Yan turned to Shuang'er and smiled, then looked at Xuening and said, "Does Miss Xuening want to know too?"
Xue Ning gave a gentle salute and said: "If the village chief doesn't say anything, the little girl will naturally not ask more questions. Shuang'er is ignorant. I hope the village chief doesn't blame me."
Lao Yan smiled again and said: "How could I blame you? You are so reasonable. I should have told you. If Xiao Shuang'er hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten it."
Xue Ning was not polite this time and said: "The little girl is listening to everything the village chief says."
Lao Yan glanced at Xu Ning meaningfully, turned his head, and said as he walked: "Miss Xu Ning and Xiao Shuang'er are also wandering spirits, right?"
Xue Ning nodded and said: "Although Shuang'er and I are wandering spirits, we have always relied on each other and rarely interacted with other people. This time we came to Guizhuang, it was also a coincidence."
Lao Yan nodded in front and said, "Then it's no wonder Miss Xuening doesn't know about the sacrificial activities."
Xuening asked strangely: "Does this sacrificial activity have anything to do with wandering spirits?"
Lao Yan paused for a moment, turned around and glanced at Xu Ning again and said, "This sacrificial activity is exactly what wandering spirits must do when they form a village."
Xuening asked even more strangely: "Why?"
Lao Yan turned around and said with a heavy tone: "Miss Xue Ning must know that we wandering spirits cannot enter reincarnation. We will wander outside the gate of the underworld for eternity. We may either disappear or disappear into some non-existent space.
.”
Xuening's eyes also showed sadness that could not be concealed: Lao Yan was right, she and Shuang'er had wandered alone for thousands of years, barely encountering any wandering spirits, that kind of loneliness in the years was the only
Only those who have experienced it will know.
Lao Yan continued from the front: "So, I don't know when, a legend appeared among the wandering spirits, saying that through a sacrificial activity, one can be brought back to the underworld by the known Hades, or become a Hades tribe, or enter reincarnation."
Xue Ning's eyes lit up, she looked at Lao Yan's back and asked, "Is this true?"
Lao Yan did not nod or shake his head, but just said: "Whether it is true or false, I am afraid that no wandering spirit will want to give up on this hope."
Xue Ning nodded silently behind Lao Yan. This was true. In a completely desperate situation, when this legend appeared, what else could the wandering spirits do besides believe it?
Xuening asked again: "But how did this sacrificial activity spread?"
Lao Yan paused for a moment, as if he was reconsidering whether to say anything, but he didn't think about it for long before he spoke in a low voice: "It is rumored that when a Pluto in the underworld was a boy, his mind was controlled by someone unknown.
The world of killing, coupled with the extremely high talent of this Hades, actually made him famous in the underworld, and eventually became the object of everyone's resentment in the underworld..."
When Shuang'er heard this, she curiously asked: "There are so many powerful people in the underworld, why don't you arrest him?"
Lao Yan replied: "It's not that we don't arrest him, but he is alone. It is difficult for anyone to know his whereabouts, and no one knows specifically who killed him, because the Hades killed by Pluto were all in a certain area."
Leave no grass behind.”
Xue Ning and Shuang'er looked at each other with a trace of fear in their eyes. People who lose their minds are always scary.
Lao Yan continued: "But no matter how strong a person is, clues will eventually be revealed. The story of this Hades was known to Hades. Emperor Hades originally wanted to kill this Hades, but at this time, a woman in the realm of the Immortal Emperor
When Xiu came to the underworld, she somehow used all her strength to purify the mind of Hades and restore his sanity..."
Shuang'er said with admiration: "That female nun is so amazing!"
"Yes, it is very powerful." Lao Yan also sighed and continued, "But after she saved Pluto, she suffered a loss. After Pluto woke up, he began to search for her soul. As a result, no one expected that it was the underworld.
There was no soul of the female cultivator. Pluto went to ask Pluto for help. Pluto saw the sober Pluto and showed his love for talents. He originally intended to kill Pluto but reused him instead. Moreover, Pluto cast a spell for Pluto to find that person.
Female nun..."
Shuang'er instantly turned into an anxious look and asked, "Have you found it?"
"Found it." Lao Yan replied weakly, "It's just that the female cultivator she found was trapped in a huge pillar. This pillar stands in the Four Brahma Heavens of Thirty-Six Heavens."
Xue Ning's body was shaken. The Four Brahma Heavens of the Thirty-six Heavens are very mysterious existences. Is that where the Immortal Emperor was punished?
"The Emperor of Hades cherished the strength of the Lord of Hades, and finally opened the passage to the Four Brahma Heavens for him, and sent him to the female cultivator." Lao Yan said with his fanatical admiration for the Emperor of Hades, "It was only after the Lord of Hades saw the female cultivator that he
I know that if I want to be a female cultivator, I have to find a woman with almost the same physique as the female cultivator to replace her, and then I can be a female cultivator..."
Shuang'er asked with concern: "Has Hades found a woman to replace the female cultivator? Isn't this unfair to the replacement woman?"
Lao Yan did not answer Shuang'er's question immediately this time, but paused for a long time before saying: "Ever since we learned about this legend, there have been sacrificial activities in Youling's village. One person plays the role of Pluto, and the other
Come to play the role of sacrifice, that is, the woman who replaces the female cultivator. It is said that whichever village's sacrifice satisfies Pluto, that Pluto will let the wandering spirits of the entire village enter reincarnation or become the underworld..."
When Xue Ning heard this, she vaguely understood Lao Yan's purpose in asking them to follow her. Her expression changed, she gently hugged Shuang'er, and did not move forward.
