The Classic of Mountains and Seas Through Ancient and Modern Times

Chapter 73
Regardless of the scourge, Liu Er took Lu Jiaqi on the road before dawn the next day.As the yin qi intensified, even Lu Jiaqi felt something was wrong.

Because her soul was sealed in her body, Lu Jiaqi always felt that her body was heavy, but as time went by, she began to feel lighter.Li Mu and the others who had been following behind them also gradually distanced themselves.

"Are you going to Styx?" Lu Jiaqi felt a little uneasy. What does the legendary Styx look like?

"Hurry up!" Liu Er replied softly, and stopped suddenly after a few steps, "Miss Lu, I have always been very concerned..." Liu Er turned her head and looked behind her, "It seems that from the beginning , there are some people behind us."

"Ah?" Lu Jiaqi curled the corners of her lips in surprise, thinking that this place is too dark, she must have discovered Li Mu and the others! "Well, it's actually my friend! I'll tell you the truth now! I'm only half dead..."

Although I know it's strange to say this, I can understand it this way: "In fact, only my body is dead, and my soul is still alive. The reason why I follow you is actually to go to the Styx River with you to find the soul-fixing pearl." .”

"Soul-fixing pearl?" Liu'er had obviously never heard of it, and Lu Jiaqi sized it up for a while before saying in a low voice, "If the body is dead, it is completely dead, so there is no such thing as half-dead, but the soul-fixing pearl is for What are you doing? Can you save your body?"

Lu Jiaqi thought for a while and said, "That's right! I still have too much nostalgia for the world, so I still hope to live."

"Well," Liu'er nodded, "Actually, I also want to live. It doesn't matter if I live in vain, as long as I live. But I found that I can't do it. No matter how I make myself forget about death, I still can't do it. , I ended up jumping off the bridge."

"Then do you regret it?"

"Regret!" Liu'er smiled wryly, "I really regretted when I couldn't breathe, not because I felt pain, but because I suddenly wanted to live. But when I think of living like a walking dead, I feel so painful. It is said that people die In order to go back to another world, I only hope that I can meet him so that I will not continue to regret it."

Seeing that the other party looked so sad, Lu Jiaqi had no choice but to pat her on the shoulder and smiled, "Yes, you will definitely meet him." After saying that, Lu Jiaqi turned around and ran back, pulling Li Mu over.

Seeing this, Xiao Zixi waved his hands and followed, but he was a little puzzled. It is said that he and Emperor Chen's magic power is not bad, how could he be discovered by a mere soul?

Just when Xiao Zixi felt strange, Liu'er suddenly said, "Miss Lu, are there only three of your friends?"

"Well," Lu Jiaqi nodded, "what's the matter?"

It was Li Mu who reacted first, twisted his eyebrows, and jumped out.When she came back again, she was holding a little girl about ten years old in her hand. The little girl was wearing two buns and wearing a common red flower jacket. She was probably frightened, and she was staring at Li Mu with her big round eyes. Flopping hands.

"Let me go, let me go," the little girl's immature voice made people feel a little distressed, and she glanced at the rest of the people, hoping to ask for help, "Help me!" She said, and her eyes fell on Xiao Zixi.

It's just that Xiao Zixi has never been a nosy person, watching the little girl staring at him, he silently turned his head away.

Seeing this, the little girl suddenly burst into tears with a "wow": "Bad guys, you are all bad guys..."

Li Mu took the little girl and looked at him indifferently: "If you cry again, I will feed you to the wild beasts."

"This is not good!" Hua Shuo, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "After all, she is just a child."

"That's right, that's right!" The little girl nodded her head vigorously, and set her eyes on Hua Shuo for help, and a meaningful smile flashed in her eyes.

When Xiao Zixi heard the words, he held his chin and looked at the little girl calculatingly: "Child? What kind of child do you think will follow behind us?"

"You..." The little girl looked at Xiao Zixi angrily, and finally pouted, "Why do I want to follow you, I just want to go to the Styx River, but you unreasonable villains, who indiscriminately kill me Grab it, uh..."

Liu'er glanced at the little girl, she was indeed very sinister, she should be dead.

Seeing that the person was about to cry again, Li Mu was about to threaten again but was interrupted by Lu Jiaqi: "Li Mu, let her go?"

"Why?" Li Mu looked at Lu Jiaqi puzzled, "This little girl is sneaky..."

"I said let her go, let her go," said Lu Jiaqi, who came over and rescued the little girl from Li Mu's grasp, "How are you doing?" Just now when I heard that the little girl was going to Styx, Lu Jiaqi felt a little regretful instinctively. After all, the other party was going to Styx at such a young age. No matter what happened to her during her lifetime, she must be very pitiful!

The little girl first glanced at Lu Jiaqi in astonishment, then lowered her head and said aggrievedly: "It's okay, thank you sister~"

"It's okay," Lu Jiaqi smiled and shook her head, "My name is Lu Jiaqi, and we are also going to Styx, why don't we go together! By the way, what's your name?"

"Me?" The little girl was stunned for a while, and then she grinned, "My name is Guoguo, which is the name for apples we usually eat."

Lu Jiaqi nodded, and raised her hand to touch her bun: "What a cute and cute child, but how could you..."

"I," Guoguo rubbed her eyes suddenly and cried when she heard the words, "I lost my father when I was very young, and I lived with my stepfather after that. I didn't expect that my stepfather didn't like me and secretly put me..."

"Scum!" Lu Jiaqi added angrily. She didn't expect this kind of scum to exist in this world. Lu Jiaqi wanted to hug Guoguo tightly and put her in her arms, "Don't worry, there will be no more people in the future." Bullied you."

"Yeah!" Guoguo nodded, with a meaningful smile on the corner of her mouth.

Li Mu on the side looked at it but snorted. He always felt that this stupid woman had done another stupid thing, and she had to be on guard. It was better to be optimistic about this little girl.

Hua Shuo felt somewhat similar to Lu Jiaqi at the moment, such a stepfather is really hateful.

As for Xiao Zixi, he rubbed his forehead with one hand and shook his head. If he hadn't asked for something, he really didn't want to offend this ancestor.

Just when several people had different thoughts, Liu'er still looked back frequently, but could it be that she was being overwhelmed?
"Sister," Guoguo suddenly interrupted Liu'er's thoughts, "If you don't hurry up, the time will be over!" He said and blinked mischievously.
