Tomb Raiders in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 172 Huangquan Road
Zuo Ci said this, but Zhang Faqiu couldn't feel anything. He felt that his body was the same as before, and there was not much change.

"Look, there is only one sun in the sky!" Bai Suzhen shouted in surprise.

Zhang Faqiu was also surprised: "Not only the sun in the sky, but also the clouds and mists on Mount Tai have disappeared..."

Walking down from Mount Tai, you can see the white mist covering the road, which is the dissipated dragon energy.

The ten blood-red suns had disappeared. Zhang Faqiu glanced at the tattoo pattern in the shape of a Pisces on his left wrist, and felt more at ease.

"Shall we leave now?" Zhang Faqiu asked.

"Go!" Zuo Ci nodded, and told Zhang Faqiu to carry Taoist Mingcang on his back.

While walking, Bai Suzhen recounted what happened outside after Zhang Faqiu disappeared.

Zhang Faqiu was very surprised. Although he thought Zuo Ci was strong before, he didn't expect Zuo Ci to be so strong.

"Zhang Jiao was injured many years ago, but I have been improving all the time." Zuo Ci sighed: "If it wasn't for that incident, maybe the Taoist sect wouldn't be divided into two factions."

"Think about it!" Zhang Faqiu said in relief.

"There's nothing you can't think about." Zuo Ci sighed and walked down the mountain road.

Taoist Mingcang's spine is broken, and he needs to find a place to recuperate before he can continue on the road to avoid sequelae.

Zhang Faqiu also told Zuo Ci that he still has a motorcade, which will come later and needs a period of recuperation.

……

In a unique courtyard, the severely injured Zhang Daotian had already woken up, and Zhang Jiao was beside him.

"It must be him, this person must be Zuo Ci's disciple Zhang Faqiu!"

Zhang Jiao looked at the excited young son, and said indifferently, "Have you cheated on him before?"

"Our Shura corpse breeding site was destroyed by him. I really didn't expect that this person is actually the successor of the funeral scriptures!" Zhang Daotian said viciously.

"If the Zhang Faqiu you mentioned is the successor of the funeral scriptures, why did Zuo Ci promise not to attack me in the future and tell me to leave Yuhuangding?" Zhang Jiao asked back.

If Zhang Faqiu was the successor of the funeral scriptures, then Zuo Ci's cover-up would have no practical meaning.

But Zhang Daotian saw it clearly, that is, Zhang Faqiu disappeared on the rooftop. If Zhang Faqiu was not the successor of the funeral scriptures, who else could it be?

"False and real, true and false, the most difficult for people to distinguish." Zhang Jiao said: "Whether Zuo Ci deliberately confuses me or not, when I see Zhang Faqiu in the future, I will arrest him at all costs."

"Why not kill it directly?" Zhang Daotian was puzzled. Wouldn't it be better to kill such a scourge directly?
"Don't kill!" Zhang Jiao said: "The burial scripture bearer has the destiny, do you still remember the prescription I told you to take away the destiny?"

There was a trace of fear in the depths of Zhang Daotian's eyes, and he asked: "Father said... Xu Fu Xu Tianzun created which formula is he going to take away from Zhang Liang?"

"That's right!" Zhang Jiao nodded, "The fate of the Han Dynasty has declined, and the chaotic world is vying for supremacy. It would be great if we can perfectly seize the heirs of the funeral scriptures."

"Father, don't worry, I will definitely bring this man back!" Zhang Daotian said almost as if promising.

Zhang Jiao was silent for a while, and then asked: "You have seen the power of the Tai'a Sword and Zhuxian Ancient Sword. Although my body has old diseases, my strength still exists. Zuo Ci thought that my body was old. If he is sick, his strength will not grow accordingly, which is his most conceited place."

"It's the child who is incompetent and didn't kill Taoist Ming Cang." Zhang Daotian lowered his head, his expression a little dark.

"I don't blame you. I summoned many masters back then, but none of them killed him. How could the disciples trained by Senior Brother Yu Ji be weak?" Zhang Jiao said approvingly.

"You still need time, Zhang's family, and even the Daoist sect, all the luck has gathered on you, and you want to prove the Dao for your father. If I can't wait for this day, then you must continue to do it. Zhang Jiao looked at Zhang Daotian lovingly, and said with some reluctance: "This is destiny."

"In this world...are there really immortals?" Zhang Daotian suddenly asked.

Zhang Jiao hesitated for a moment, and his eyes became deep: "If not, then for thousands of years, what are the Taoist people looking for?"

"I understand!" Zhang Daotian nodded.

"It's good to have a good sleep, and when you wake up, all your ailments will be cured." Zhang Jiao looked at Zhang Daotian lovingly.

Zhang Daotian nodded, closed his eyes, and the room fell into silence again.

……

In the most ancient legend, after death, people will enter the underworld, and King Yama will judge the sins and merits of the living soul before him, and then judge whether he will follow the animal path or the human path in his next life.

After Ah Li bid farewell to Zhang Faqiu, there was darkness in front of her eyes. She looked back on herself, as if she had a very big dream, from her birth, growth, to her final death.

When she saw the light again, she felt something walking on her back, just like when she was a child, her mother was carrying her on her back, digging wild vegetables on the ridge of the field.

The back is broad and solid, giving people a sense of security.

There were two blood-red lanterns in the distance, and strange voices echoed in the dark space. Ali clenched her fists and spoke to the man.

"A girl named Zuo Xiaoqing..." A Li said silently in her heart, until she got to the bottom of the blood-red lantern, A Li saw clearly that it turned out to be a straw man walking behind her back.

A straw man taller and stronger than it walked with unhurried steps and walked very easily.

When she saw this straw man at the beginning, Ali was still a little scared, but she smelled a familiar voice, a man like Song Yu.

Ah Li couldn't think of too many adjectives to describe that person, but once in a while, when she went to the city to pay the land tax, she heard a story about the general Song Yu, saying that Song Yu was the most beautiful man in all ages, with high moral integrity , is the lifelong partner that all women in the world long for.

Along the way, every once in a while, there will be two blood-red lanterns on the road. This straw man is silent and can't speak. He just walks with his head on his back like this.

In the dark space, more and more noisy voices came, some screaming, some laughing maniacally, some sobbing...

I don't know how long I walked, this is a corner forgotten by time, light began to appear in front of me, Ali saw the yellow sand, saw the yellow river...

Someone on the edge of the river opened his mouth and took up yellow water to drink from it, but when it reached his mouth, it leaked out again.

It was only then that Ah Li noticed that the jaws of these people... had been cut off by human beings... there was only an empty shell, how could they eat?

The tongue and head are shaking in the empty mouth, which reveals strangeness no matter how you look at it.

"Little girl, please do me a favor, take my wife for a ride—" A voice came over, like Ye Xiao's cry.

A Li turned her head to look, and saw an old woman without feet, with white hair all over her head, lying on the river beach, lingering on her last breath.

The straw man seemed to be able to feel what Ah Li was thinking in his heart. He forbade to turn his head and walked towards the edge of the river beach.

Seeing Ali coming, those people who were crawling on the edge of the lotus pond, wanting to drink water but couldn't get it, all ran over, surrounded Ali, and told about their sufferings.

A young man with maggots in his eye sockets, only half of his body, said that he was on the battlefield, and the other half of his body was chopped off, and he also wanted Ali's help.

A woman with a graceful figure came over, her delicate face immediately foamed, her skin and flesh burst open, she looked like a fat sea that had bubbled up, she was also talking about her suffering, and she was framed by others Leaving the wall and being soaked in a pig cage by a cruel husband...

There are many more... There is a lot of talking, some people are talking, and the flesh on their bodies begins to rot, and pieces of rotten flesh fall to the ground, mixed with maggots, and there is a very strong smell of corpses.

Ah Li was suddenly very sad. She looked at her hands and feet, but found that they were intact and still glowing.

"Little girl, you have noble people to help you go to hell, so you don't have to suffer. The river you see now is called Huangquan River, and this endless yellow sand is called Huangquan Road!"

Once in hell, there is no way back!

Only now did Ah Li realize that the place she walked by before and saw the blood-red lantern was the gate of hell!

If she remembered correctly, there were eight teams of lanterns in total.

That is the gate of ghosts, which is guarded by sixteen ghosts.

Pointing to the people around her, the old woman said, these are people who have passed through the gate of hell, and now they have set foot on the road to Huangquan. When they are very hungry, they eat yellow sand;

As long as you walk through Huangquan Road and then enter Fengdu City, you can reincarnate in Fengdu City.

The old woman took Ah Li to see that someone was really eating the sand, but when it reached the mouth, it fell down again.

There is no inn on Huangquan Road, perhaps it is the current scene.

A Li said something softly to the straw man, and the straw man bent down, picked up the old woman, and continued walking.

A group of people left, and immediately another group of people came to drink water by the river beach, but they couldn't drink water no matter how much they drank.

"When you're alive, the greater the sin, the longer the road to hell... the more you walk, the thirstier you get, the hungrier you get... the more you walk, the hungrier..." The old woman began to mutter, and the dark wind blew on the river, and Ah Li saw that Indeed, in the wind and sand, there seemed to be countless figures, densely packed.

"The greater the crime, the longer the road to hell?" A Li's voice became erratic, and she looked at those strange and various people.

Some people are in good health, and the clothes they wear are very clean, no different from a normal person... while some people's bodies have begun to rot and swell... Every time they take a step, a yellow corpse will be left on the ground. water footprints...

There are still some people whose bones have been exposed, and the bones are stained with dilapidated and rotten clothes, and only strands of rotten flesh and blood are left hanging on their bodies, as if they will fall off at any time.

This is like a group of bone skeletons who have been walking on the road to Huangquan for several years... decades... or even hundreds of years... They are walking in one direction...

"What is that direction?" Ali couldn't help asking.

The old lady raised her cloudy eyes, looked at the direction A Li was pointing at, her lips trembled, and said slowly, "Fengdu City!"
