Chapter 143
On the way back to the Judgment Hall, I followed Murong Zhen. The gloom in my heart was swept away and replaced by joy.
Even the underworld sky full of flying black shadows no longer feels so gloomy in my eyes at this moment.
As for the curse mentioned by King Yama, we should wait until I return to the sun before discussing it with the master and the others. According to what King Yama said, even if the curse will be triggered, it will only be after I become an adult.
My birthday is on the tenth day of the first lunar month every year, and the tenth day of the first lunar month in 2017 is still nearly half a year away.
"Master, when did you come back? Have you finished the matter?" I walked beside Murong Zhen with small steps, tilted my head and asked him.
Murong Zhen walked slowly, with his body stooped, his back hunched, and his hands behind his back. With a faint smile on his face, he said: "The matter has been finished. I came back two days ago. No, Liu Zhi said it right after he came back.
I learned that you were detained by the underworld, so I came to rescue you first."
"Ah, Master is so kind to me." I raised my eyebrows and said in a very rude manner.
Murong Zhen poked my head with his hand and said, "You brat, I haven't seen you for a long time, and my mouth has become a lot sweeter. How is your sister's soul doing?"
Hearing what he said, I quickly touched the little bag in my pocket, held it in my hand, and showed it to Murong Zhen as if it were a treasure. I chuckled: "It's all in this little bag, Liu Zhi
Master, they helped me a lot, and that guy Hou Tao is also very interesting."
"That's good. Now that your sister's soul is gathered together, your biggest worry will be put down." Murong Zhen said.
Listening to the hidden meaning in his words, I was a little confused. What kind of trouble is the master going to make?
Murong Zhen tilted his head inadvertently and saw my troubled expression. After shaking his head slightly, he stroked my head and said: "Don't think too much, your sister's soul has been gathered together, be happy. I will do so in the future."
Think about sad things later. There is still a long time, so be happy now."
After rubbing it twice, Murong Zhen withdrew his palm. Feeling the residual warmth on the top of my head, my heart returned to its original position. Since Murong Zhen is my master, even if the sky falls, he will still protect me.
of.
Besides, even if Murong Zhen, the water collector, can't handle much, I still have Master Xiao Tong as my backer.
Not long after leaving, Murong Zhen and I returned to the room where I was staying temporarily in the Judgment Hall. Ling Dang and Lu Fafa were still in the room, bored and playing backgammon with the Four Treasures of the Study on the table.
"Ha~ I won again!"
Before I even stepped onto the doorstep, I heard the excited sound of bells ringing in the house.
Bang bang - I knocked on the door politely twice. "Who is it?" Lu Fafa's voice sounded.
I raised my lips and said, "It's me, I'm back."
Within a few seconds, the door panel opened with a creak. The short little bell stood inside the door, stretched out two arms, and rushed to hug me with a happy face. "Dad, Aunt Lu and I are playing backgammon.
I’ve been winning continuously, isn’t the bell powerful?”
I complied with his request and picked him up. He looked like he was begging for praise, so I smiled and said, "The bell is the most powerful." However, Murong Zhen's eyes were narrowed into thin slits.
There was a hint of confusion on his wrinkled face. He pointed to the bell in my arms and asked, "This is"
I chuckled, no wonder Murong Zhen couldn't recognize the 'trickster' Ling Dang. Ling Dang's initial dress was not like this. Murong Zhen had also seen Ling Dang before, but his impression of Ling Dang still remained at '
She has two small hairdos, a red bellyband, and shiny golden bracelets on her limbs.
How could Murong Zhen have imagined that the little boy in front of him, who was wearing a small leather jacket and dressed very fashionably, was a trickster. As for Lingdang's appearance, he was given it by Sister Xun'er.
Unexpectedly, I haven't explained yet. The guy Lingdang spoke first and said: "Hey, old sir, long time no see."
I lightly hit Lingdang on the head and said to him angrily: "This is my master, you must respect him!"
"Yes, yes, yes." Lingdang lowered his head and greeted Murong Zhen again: "Hello, Mr. Murong, I am Lingdang."
"Okay, okay," Murong Zhen nodded, then reached out and grabbed one of Ling Dang's little arms. Ling Dang resisted and wanted to withdraw his arm, but because Murong Zhen was my master, he didn't struggle anymore and let the other person do it.
catch.
Murong Zhen grabbed Ling Dang's arm and let go after a while. He nodded to me thoughtfully and said, "This child can be of great help to you."
I nodded perfunctorily in agreement, even though I had no idea what Murong Zhen was talking about.
"Xiaoyang, is he the one who is coming to pick you up?" Lu Fafa walked out of the house when he heard the commotion at the door, half leaning against the door, puffing out smoke and saying.
I introduced her: "Yes, this is my master. He came to pick me up and return me to the sun." After a pause, I looked into Lu Fafa's eyes with gratitude and said, "This time, I really want to thank you. I
I owe you a favor."
Lu Fafa shook his head, waved his hands quickly and said: "No, no, don't say you owe me any favors. This time, I helped you because Ling Dang begged me in every possible way. If I asked you to exchange this favor, this little guy
You are not allowed to eat me."
"Anyway, I'm really grateful." I touched my body casually, but there seemed to be nothing to express my gratitude. While groping randomly, I touched the black beads on my neck.
This bead is my life-saving bead, of course, Master Xiao Tong told me so.
Putting down the bell in my arms, I stretched my hands behind my neck and untied the chain of the necklace. Holding the pure black beads in the palm of my hand, I handed them to Lu Fafa. I smiled and said: "Sister Lu, I don't have anything to express my gratitude, so I just put it down."
I’ll give this to you. Although it’s not a good thing.”
Lu Fafa took a closer look, picked it up and rubbed it in his palm for a while. He also became interested in the beads: "Since you gave it to me, I can't refute your intention. Okay, I will accept it."
After saying a few polite words, Lu Fafa left. All feasts in the world come to an end, and so do I, Ling Dang and Lu Fafa.
I simply packed up and returned the armor I wore when I was a city guard to Qiu Bai. After bidding farewell to him, I walked out of Yincao City with Bell Dang Murong Zhen. Because I am now a spirit body, I can’t walk anymore.
The Spirit Bridge would cause harm to my soul. So Murong Zhen led us to the Naihe Bridge on the other side.
I remember Hou Tao said that no turning back is allowed on this Naihe Bridge. All ghosts can only go this way to Yincao City, and cannot go in the opposite direction with their backs to Yincao City.
But Murong Zhen led us this time and set a precedent. He held the token given by King Yama in his hand, and the journey was smooth until we reached the place where we first came.
Looking at the huge black swirling wormhole in front of me, I swallowed my saliva. Does returning to the sun mean returning the same way? When we came, we came in through this hole. When we go out, we just jump back.
