Chapter 325 Madam Lingsu
Chapter 325 Madam Lingsu
"Did the red-haired ghost chase you?"
Chen Shi stood up and paced back and forth, wondering, "Who is the young master? Why is he looking for the Three Lives Stone? Miss, you were in charge of guarding me before, do you know this young master?"
The boat girl shook her head: "We, the underworld messengers, obey the orders of the underworld commander, the underworld commander obeys the orders of the judge, and the judge obeys the orders of the King of Hell. I have never heard of any young master."
Chen Shi asked, "Who asked you to suppress me and my mother?"
The boat girl said, "Master Yin's order."
"Where's that handsome guy?"
"died."
The boat girl looked sad and said, "Chen Yindu came to Xiandu and kidnapped you. We couldn't defeat Chen Yindu, so we went to look for the Lord of the Underworld, but we found that he was dead. We then wanted to look for the Judge, but we found that he was also dead. We went to look for the Lord of the Underworld, but he was also missing. We were desperate and knew that if we lost you, we would die, so we immediately abandoned our real bodies and fled to the world of the living."
Chen Shi's heart was slightly shaken. His death happened eleven years ago. He was suppressed here, which should have happened between three and eleven years ago. Maybe less than eight years, only about five years.
In just five years, a drastic change took place in the underworld. The underworld commander, the judge, and the King of Hell all died or disappeared!
A burly female demon came up to Chen Shi with a wine glass in her hand, half drunkenly, and said seductively, "If you are interested, drink this glass."
Chen Shi raised his hand and gave a light push, and the female demon flew backwards, crashed through the wall, and flew dozens of feet away.
Chen Shi was stunned. "When Grandpa brought Granny Sha, Uncle Qingyang and others to the underworld to rescue me, they also discovered that there was a serious turmoil in the underworld. The ghosts and gods in the underworld attacked each other, and there were heavy casualties. It seems that something big happened in the underworld during that period! No, it was not just during that period!"
When the three corpse gods saw him knock the female demon away, they looked at each other in surprise.
Such a beauty is not to the master's taste?
Chen Shi suddenly thought that Zhong Kui and Tie Chi were reincarnated more than 20 years ago. In other words, a big change had already happened in the underworld more than 20 years ago!
"But the Tongue-Pulling Hell was torn apart more than 1,400 years ago. This war may last much longer than I thought... Never mind these things! My goal here is just to rescue my mother!"
Chen Shi calmed down and said silently in his heart, "Tomorrow, I will find a chance to rescue my mother. I won't ask anything else!"
He relaxed and sang and danced with the female demon in the brothel, feeling extremely happy.
Peng Qiao, Peng Tu and Peng Ju were also very happy when they saw this, thinking that they had succeeded.
When it was almost dawn, the Three Corpse Gods immediately turned into a gust of cold wind and disappeared without a trace, leaving Chen Shi to pay.
Chen Shi settled the bill and returned to Yuanchen Palace. He opened the front hall, but found it empty and there was no Peng Qiao.
He opened the other two side halls, but still did not find the other two corpse gods.
The Three Corpse Gods would probably only appear at night.
Chen Shi took out the food he had prepared in advance from the small temple, ate something to fill his stomach, and only set off after he was full.
He carried the black pot and followed the boat girl along Tianjie.
During the day, Xiandu seemed much quieter than last night, but there were no people on the streets, but ghosts and monsters. The lower ones were the little demons, the ox-headed demons, and the horse-faced demons, some of whom were begging for work, and some were doing dirty and tiring work.
In addition to them, there are big yakshas like Chen Shi, as well as the bull-headed monster and the horse-faced monster. They can only be regarded as ghosts and monsters, not gods.
Only when they are assigned to the underworld and become ghost messengers, and have incense and offerings, can they be considered real ghosts and gods. If there is no incense and offerings, they can only be called monsters.
Chen Shishi was walking on Tianjie Street and looking around. The boundless Yuanchen Palace came into view, with no end in sight, which shocked him deeply.
How big is Xiandu?
Has anyone ever walked to the end of Xiandu?
"The Yuanchen Palaces of everyone in Xiniu New Continent are all here."
The boat girl said, "People die all the time, and people are born all the time. Yuanchen Palaces are constantly being destroyed, and new ones are constantly being created."
Chen Shi raised his head and scanned the boundless Yuanchen Palace. In some of the Yuanchen Palaces, there stood huge Yuanshen, majestic and like gods. They must be the Yuanshen of the strong cultivators.
There are not many such souls, and there is only one in hundreds of thousands of Wanchen Palaces. However, even if only one appears, it is extremely shocking.
After seeing this scene, he finally understood what Xiaoyasha said.
"The little Yaksha said that the Yuanchen Palace is like the human body, and it is right! The Yuanchen Palace is like the reflection of the human body in the underworld, but it is even more wonderful. From the underworld, the Yuanshen is hidden in the Yuanchen Palace. From the world of the living, the Yuanshen is hidden in the body. The three corpse gods are the ghosts and gods transformed from all kinds of evil thoughts and vulgar thoughts in the human body."
Chen Shi had some understanding. During the day, people's rationality was present and their spirit was in control, so the three corpse gods ceased their activities. At night, rationality retreated and under the influence of the moonlight, the three corpse gods became in control.
If one loses all rationality in a dream, the Three Corpse Gods will take the soul of their master to a life of debauchery in Xiandu, tempting people to fall into depravity.
In other words, the entire Xiandu is actually the manifestation of the bodies and dreams of countless people in the underworld!
Countless ghosts and gods reside in such a fairyland.
"There should be some other mysterious things in this, but this is basically it."
Chen Shi looked around. The fairy city was vast and ethereal. It was all so wonderful.
Before they knew it, they had arrived at the courtyard that the red-haired ghost had entered last night.
Outside the courtyard, there were many little Yakshas lined up in neat rows, forming a team of several hundred people.
These little yakshas carry sticks or forks on their shoulders and hang their luggage, which is usually a cloth bag filled with some rotten food and paper money, and move forward slowly.
Chen Shi went forward to inquire, and a little Yaksha said, "The owner of this place wants to entertain guests and is looking for some hardworking little Yakshas to do odd jobs. The wages are very high. We are here to try our luck and maybe we can find a job. The mansion doesn't need big Yakshas, so there is no point in lining up."
Chen Shi smiled and said, "I'm just passing by. I'm not competing with you for work. What's the name of the owner of this place? What's his origin?"
"I don't know."
Chen Shi asked a few little yakshas, but none of them knew the name of the owner of the courtyard.
Chen Shi followed Chuan Gu and Hei Guo and passed by the courtyard. This courtyard was much larger than other Yuanchen Palaces, with a circumference of dozens of miles. There was darkness behind the courtyard. Faintly they could see a street hanging in the darkness. Only a Yuanchen Palace could be seen from afar standing in the depths of the darkness. No other Yuanchen Palaces could be seen.
The front and back of the courtyard are like two different worlds.
"The last time my father and I came here, we were in this Yuanchen Palace to rescue your mother." Said the boat girl.
Chen Shi looked around and found that both sides of the road were pitch black and there was no light.
His mind moved slightly, and his qi and blood turned into a talisman, forming a five-thunder talisman in the darkness.
The moment the lightning flashed, one saw an extremely huge monster crawling in the darkness, dozens of miles long from head to tail, surrounding the Yuanchen Palace!
On both sides of the road, there are small boats, each with a horse-faced ghost god on it, some standing, some sitting, some lying on the boat wearing a bamboo hat. The boats float in the darkness, as if floating on the river.
The moment the thunder sounded, Chen Shi turned around and left, and the horse-faced ghosts on the small boats stood up, opened their eyes, and looked towards the place where the thunder was.
They held in their hands the Boy's Heavenly Spirit Lanterns, the lights were like torches, shining brightly.
The beams of light converged together and destroyed the Five Thunder Talisman!
The horse-faced ghosts found that it was just a five-thunder talisman, and immediately looked towards where Chen Shi was, but Chen Shi had already left. The beams of light converged back, leaving only bright eyes in the darkness.
Suddenly, behind the pair of eyes, a huge eyelid with a radius of dozens of feet opened slowly, and demonic fire blazed and flowed in all directions.
It was a giant dog, crawling in the darkness, and Chen Shiniang's Yuanchen Palace was in the arms of the giant dog.
At this moment, the giant dog woke up, and the group of horse-faced ghosts suddenly panicked and shouted, "Huo Dou is awake, Huo Dou is awake!"
At this moment, a tall red figure descended into the darkness and landed on the road leading to Yuanchen Palace, with red hair fluttering. It was the Red-haired Ghost, who shouted, "What are you yelling about?"
When he found that the giant dog had woken up, his face suddenly changed and he hurriedly took out a talisman, which flew out and stuck on the giant dog's forehead.
The giant dog roared angrily, causing the ghost messengers to lose their footing. The red-haired ghost also couldn't help but shake his body, and he quickly steadied himself.
The giant dog fell asleep again.
The red-haired ghost breathed a sigh of relief, looked around, and asked, "What happened just now?"
One of the ghost messengers told the story of the Five Thunder Talismans. The red-haired ghost's eyes flickered and he said, "Five Thunder Talismans? It seems that the last incident is not over yet, and someone is ready to make another move. You guys guard this place, I'll go tell the young master."
"As ordered."
The red-haired ghost returned to the courtyard and saw beautiful scenery inside the courtyard. Even in the underworld, it was like a fairyland.
He came to the governor's hall, where the young master was meeting a guest. After a while, a woman in palace dress walked out of the hall and nodded slightly to the red-haired ghost.
"Meet Madam Lingsu!"
The red-haired ghost did not dare to be negligent and quickly returned the greeting. After Madam Lingsu left, he entered the governor's hall and informed the young master of the matter.
The young master was surprised and said, "Five Thunder Talisman? The person who came is not a Yin God, but a living person. Yin Gods don't know talismans like the Five Thunder Talisman."
He was a nobleman with a handsome appearance. If Xiang Tianyu were here, he would be extremely surprised because this man looked exactly the same as he did thirty years ago, as if he had not aged at all.
The young master stood up and said with a smile: "So, Chen Shi has arrived."
The red-haired ghost said sternly, "He has caused such a big trouble, how dare he go back to the underworld?"
The young master smiled and said, "He just dared to do it. You lead the Yinchao immediately to seal off Chen Shi's Yuanchen Palace! He has nowhere to go in Xiandu, he must return to Yuanchen Palace!"
Just as the red-haired ghost was about to do it, the young master called him back, "Also, keep an eye on his three corpse gods. He is very cunning, but the three corpse gods will expose his whereabouts."
The red-haired ghost said he left in a hurry.
Chen Shi, Chuan Gu and Hei Guo flew away quickly, and only stopped after they were dozens of miles away from the courtyard. Chen Shi frowned: "With such strict guards, there is no way to save mother! Especially the behemoth in the dark, its strength is unfathomable, we are definitely not its opponent!"
"Woof!" said Black Pot.
Chen Shi nodded. The huge creature was most likely of the same species as Hei Guo, but it was already an adult and extremely powerful.
The boat girl said worriedly, "Last time my father and I came here, there weren't so many ghosts and gods guarding here. I guess they have stepped up their defenses. What should we do now?"
Chen Shi stopped and looked around, but saw that Xiandu was full of ghosts and monsters. It was extremely difficult to rescue people from Xiandu. The only way to leave was to return to the world of the living and escape from it the moment he rescued people.
At this time, a carriage drove past them, stopped, the window opened, and a woman in palace dress looked at the black pot.
Black Pot looked at the woman, who smiled and said, "Naughty dog."
Hei Guo was shocked that she was not affected by him!
Chen Shi was stern. In this world, people who are not affected by the blame are often extremely powerful!
The woman in palace dress shifted her gaze and fell on the two Yakshas transformed by Chen Shi and Chuan Gu. She looked them up and down and said with a smile, "Has Sha Qiutong's magic of transformation reached this level? Even I can't see your true form."
Chen Shi and the boat girl were horrified. The boat girl looked terrified and trembling like a sieve. Suddenly, she raised her foot and stomped it hard, then turned into a gust of cold wind and disappeared without a trace.
She was so scared that she fled back to the world of the living, leaving Chen Shi and the black pot here.
The woman in palace dress didn't care. Her eyes fell on Chen Shi and she asked curiously, "Why don't you run away?"
Chen Shi said honestly: "I can't."
The woman in palace dress chuckled, "You don't know how to return to the living world? How dare you sneak in here? You are so bold! You are in trouble. Don't go back to Yuanchen Palace. Someone is waiting for you there."
Upon hearing this, Chen Shi hurriedly asked, "Why did the girl tell me this?"
"girl?"
The woman in palace dress couldn't help but laugh, "Just like your grandfather, both are sweet-talkers. Don't call me girl, call me Madam Lingsu, otherwise Chen Yin will hear it and blame me for pretending to be young."
Chen Shi bowed and said, "Meet Madam Lingsu."
Madam Lingsu asked, "Is your grandfather okay?"
Chen Shi said sadly: "Grandpa...passed away."
Madam Lingsu was slightly startled, then overjoyed, and said with a smile: "He is finally dead? God is so merciful! If he dies, I can live with him forever!"
She was very excited and immediately ordered the driver to turn around and go to Chen Yindu's Yuanchen Palace. She smiled and said, "Chen Yindu, you always had too many female Taoist friends around you when you were alive. Now I am finally the only one!"
Chen Shi was stunned, and hurriedly chased after him, saying, "Madam Lingsu, can you take me to Grandpa's Yuanchen Palace?"
Mrs. Lingsu parked the car and said with a smile, "Get in!"
Chen Shi got into the car and Hei Guo followed behind.
The interior of the chariot is spacious, like a small palace, with clouds as cushions and mist as tables and chairs. You can see the outside scene, but you cannot see the inside scene from the outside.
Chen Shi was sitting cross-legged on a cushion, and saw that the charioteer in front of him was actually a skeleton, and the mounts were two bone dragons, driving the chariot into the air, passing through countless heavenly streets, and the Yuanchen Palaces flashed by all around.
Chen Shi quickly looked towards the rear of the car, and saw that Hei Guo was jumping so fast that he could actually keep up with the carriage. Only then did he feel relieved.
He looked towards Madam Lingsu, and saw that this woman in palace dress was beautiful, somewhat plump, full of vitality, and graceful.
Chen Shi mustered up his courage and asked, "Madam Lingsu, are you my grandmother?"
Madam Lingsu's face darkened and she sneered, "No. I also want to know which little slut she is!"
