Chapter 999 The Three Lives Stones

Song Jiang couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he heard what Gu Hao said, "None of these levels are easy to pass... Don't we have to go through all of them?"

Gu Hao laughed when he heard this, "If we really go through all these places, won't we be completely exposed? You and I are both recorded as having not yet reached the end of our lives in the Book of Life and Death, so we must avoid these places."

"Go around? If it is really possible to go around, then wouldn't all these ghosts go around it?" Song Jiang said with a look of disbelief.

After hearing this, Gu Hao explained, "That's because our destination is different from that of ordinary ghosts. They all think about how to reincarnate smoothly, so they definitely don't want to go to hell to suffer. But we are different. We are heading for hell."

When Song Jiang heard this, he laughed dryly and said, "Now that you put it that way, it seems like we both have a mental disorder..."

Gu Hao said unhappily, "Isn't it just that we are mentally ill? Even if we stand in the busiest place in the underworld and loudly announce that we are going to the hell, no one will believe us. They will definitely think we are crazy people who were mentally ill when we were alive."

Song Jiang did not refute Gu Hao's words, but said worriedly, "Okay, no matter what, there is only one way... How can we bypass the Eight Scenic Spots of Yinshan Mountain? Is there a through train to hell here?"

Gu Hao laughed and said, "What are you afraid of with me here... I can take you there, just follow me."

Seeing Gu Hao's confident face, Song Jiang had nothing to worry about, so the two followed the ghosts and continued to move forward. Not long after they walked, they found that many ghosts had gathered in front of them, surrounding a stone tablet made of white marble. Song Jiang was curious and wanted to go forward to see what was going on, but Gu Hao stopped him and said, "That's the Three Lives Stone...Are you sure you want to see it?"

Song Jiang was surprised and asked, "Why? Is this Sansheng Stone a secret of the underworld? But I see ghosts everywhere in front of me, so it shouldn't be a secret place, right?"

Gu Hao shook his head and said, "The Three Lives Stone is of course not some mysterious secret. It's called the Three Lives Stone because whenever a ghost stands in front of the stone, his past life, present life, and future life will be displayed on it... It's okay for others, but are you sure you want to see your past life and future life?"

Gu Hao's question really stumped Song Jiang. How could he, a writer of online ghost stories, not know what the Sansheng Stone was? He was just curious and wanted to join in the fun. After all, it was rare to see such magical things that only appeared in folk tales. But now that Gu Hao asked him this, he was really unsure whether he should go up and take a look...

After thinking for a while, Song Jiang smiled and said to Gu Hao, "I'll go over and take a look... If something is really destined, I'll know the result if I see it in advance."

Seeing that Song Jiang had made up his mind, Gu Hao said nothing more. He waved his hand and said, "It's too crowded in front. I'll wait for you here... Hurry up, we have limited time."

After hearing this, Song Jiang smiled, and then he plunged into the ghosts. When he got close to the Three-Life Stone, he realized that all the ghosts were just watching the fun, and none of them dared to really go up to see their past and future lives. In fact, think about it, no matter how a person's life is, as long as he has hope in his heart, he will not feel how hard his current life is. But once you know your final outcome in advance, you will lose hope, and even the best days will be boring... But Song Jiang is different. He wants to see the Three-Life Stone just to confirm one thing. Seeing that none of the ghosts went up, Song Jiang pushed aside a ghost blocking him and stepped onto the Three-Life Stone in one step. Then the Three-Life Stone shone with golden light, wrapping Song Jiang's body in it... Immediately, the surrounding ghosts were all blinded by the light.

The golden light was so dazzling that even the Golden-eyed Ghost King who was on duty outside the Ghost Gate could see it clearly. A ghost messenger next to him said in surprise, "A ghost has gone up to the Three Lives Stone? I haven't seen anyone with this courage for many years..."

After hearing this, the Golden Eyed Ghost King turned around and looked at the golden light flashing in the Ghost Gate, and said in a deep voice, "This kid is indeed brave... but his state of mind after seeing it should be completely different from before he came here."

After the golden light faded, Song Jiang walked down from above with a calm face. The ghosts below all looked at him with complicated expressions, thinking that he would cry with joy or tears, but he didn't react at all. Suddenly, there was a burst of disappointment...

Gu Hao saw that Song Jiang had come down from the Three Lives Stone, so he hurried forward to meet him. Seeing that his face was calm, he smiled and asked, "You have also seen the Three Lives Stone, it is not too late to turn back now."

Unexpectedly, Song Jiang shook his head and said, "On the contrary, after watching it, I understand that the trip to the underworld is inevitable. It doesn't matter whether I come early or late, voluntarily or forced... I have to come. Let's go."

Gu Hao was stunned when he heard this. He felt that something was different about Song Jiang, but he couldn't put his finger on it for a moment. However, one thing that definitely remained the same was that he was going to find the giant stone that sealed the Xuanwu Yuanshen...

Normally, after passing the Sansheng Stone, they should reach Mengpo Bridge, but Song Jiang and his friends definitely cannot walk on Mengpo Bridge. However, Mengpo Bridge is built over the Wangchuan River, so how can they cross the Wangchuan River without walking on the bridge? They can't just swim across hand in hand, right? So Song Jiang looked at Gu Hao and said, "The Mengpo Bridge is in front of us, how are you going to cross it?"

After hearing this, Gu Hao glanced at the ghosts queuing up to cross the bridge in front of him and whispered, "Let's go to Wangchuan..."

Song Jiang was surprised when he heard this and said, "Go to Wangchuan? Are you crazy? I remember hearing Li Meng say before that only tangible ghosts can cross Wangchuan. Even the goddess Ba couldn't cross Wangchuan..."

Unexpectedly, Gu Hao said with a confident look, "I have my own ingenious plan... Just follow me without any worries."

Then Gu Hao brought Song Jiang to a rocky beach under the bridge. He took out a small paper boat from his body like a magician and threw it into the water. It instantly turned into a small boat with a black sail.

Gu Hao pointed at the black-sailed boat and said to Song Jiang, "Let's get on board. Wangchuan is not long, but it's not short either. We'd better get there early."

Song Jiang only knew that Gu Hao could bring paper cranes to life, but he never thought that he could also make paper boats bigger, so Song Jiang did not hesitate and quickly jumped onto the black-sailed boat, then found a seat to sit down. Although the boat was obviously made of paper, it should be able to support the weight of the two of them...
