Keyboard Immortal - Chapter 2167
[Chapter 681 The Forgotten River Ferryman]
The reason why Zu An was shocked was not because of their appearance. After all, he had seen many scarier-looking monsters these days, but because the other party looked very much like the legendary Black and White Impermanence from his previous life!
His eyes fell on the black and white mourning stick in the hands of the two ghosts. There were strips of cloth tied everywhere on the stick, which looked like a feather duster.
Zu An did not dare to underestimate it at all, because he noticed that there seemed to be a kind of regular power on the two sticks, which seemed to have a direct effect on the soul.
“Another brat is here. It seems that this month’s performance is about to be completed.” Hei Wuchang said angrily. He was obviously talking about something happy, but there was no trace of joy on his face.
On the contrary, Bai Wuchang said with a smile: “Yes, we can also take a good vacation.”
Zu An: “???”
How come this Bai Wuchang is like those workers and social animals in the previous life? He thinks about it all day long . Fishing on vacation.
However, he quickly tensed up. He had something important to do, and he certainly couldn’t be captured by this black and white situation. It seemed that a fierce battle was inevitable.
The opponent’s two mourning sticks seem to be a great threat to my current state. It seems that I need to use their carelessness at this time to attack in a sneak attack, which should be able to achieve the effect of instant kill.
Although Zu An judged it this way, he did not take action immediately because he was quite apprehensive.
According to the myths and legends of the previous life, Black and White Wuchang was a genuine civil servant in the underworld, and his rank seemed to be not low.
When I first came to the Netherworld Underworld, I killed the officials within the system. Wouldn’t that mean I was immediately on the opposite side of the entire Underworld?
Not to mention completing the mission by then, I’m afraid it will be difficult to move forward in the Netherworld.
Just when he was a little confused, Bai Wuchang suddenly spoke: “Hey, why do I feel that this kid is a little special?”
Hei Wuchang was also stunned: “Yes, he is not an ordinary lonely ghost, and he seems to be a bit strong.”
He spoke quietly . Picked up the mourning stick.
Zu An’s heart trembled. It seemed that he couldn’t wait any longer. Even if he didn’t kill them, he had to restrain them first.
Just as he was about to take action, Bai Wuchang suddenly said: “There is a mysterious aura on him. Hey, it turns out he is a colleague. I’m disrespectful.”
“Same… colleague?” Zu An was about to take action, but he couldn’t help but froze when he heard this. He thought There are ten thousand situations, but this is not included.
“Isn’t it?” Bai Wuchang put the mourning stick back behind his back, and his expression became a little affectionate.
Zu An did not let down his guard. Who knew if this guy was just talking about his secrets and wanted to sneak up on him without any moral ethics.
He secretly glanced at Hei Wuchang and saw that he also put away the mourning stick: “It turns out to be the new Wangchuan ferryman. Why didn’t you tell me earlier? It almost caused a misunderstanding.”
Zu An was even more confused: “Wangchuan ferryman. “The ferryman?”
Wait, the mysterious colossus said before that I was destined to forget the river, and he used a drop of the forgetful river water as a medium to use a secret method to enter the netherworld in his current state. Could this be the identity he arranged for me? What?
Seeing his confused look, Black and White Wuchang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: “Brother, I just came to the Netherworld, so it’s normal for me to be unclear about the situation here. Don’t think that the Forgotten River Ferryman was the same as the boatman and iron grinder in the previous life. – Tofu is a hard job, but it is a great position in the Netherworld. I must have accumulated a lot of merit during my lifetime, so I can be appointed to such a position.”
“I’m new here, and I haven’t asked you two brothers yet. My surname is Gao.” Zu An bowed. Since he doesn’t have to be an enemy, he must of course have a better relationship. Maybe it will help with the next action.
Seeing that his attitude was so humble, Black and White Wuchang’s expression softened more and more. Bai Wuchang smiled and said, “We are Black and White Wuchang in the underworld. Every time someone dies in the underworld, we will go and bring his soul back to the underworld.” “I just noticed that a new ghost appeared. I originally wanted to take him to the underworld, but I didn’t expect it to be you.”
Zu An was heartbroken, and it was indeed the same as the legend: “Isn’t this the underworld?
” In fact, it counts, but strictly speaking, you have to enter the ghost gate before you really enter the netherworld.” Hei Wuchang explained.
“The Gate of Hell?” Zu An had heard many legends about the Gate of Hell. Even when people describe life and death crises, they would say that they had passed through the Gate of Hell. He never expected that he would really pass through the Gate of Hell this time.
“Well, there it is.” Bai Wuchang pointed forward. Zu An looked up and saw a huge archway not far away.
This archway has four pillars, forming three doorways. There are ferocious sculptures carved in front of each pillar, which should be some strange beasts from the underworld.
Above the three doors, there are seven lofts with undulating eaves and corners, but there are no real rooms in those lofts.
This kind of archway style can be seen everywhere in the world. The richer the family, the more magnificent their archways are.
But the archway in front of us is so special, because the archways in the human world are often made of vermilion pillars, and sometimes they are even equipped with bright yellow glazed tiles.
But this archway was completely black, so dark that it chilled one’s soul.
The only difference in color is the plaque directly above which reads “Gate of the Underworld, Gate of Hell” with seven large gold characters.
Zu An’s head trembled, he didn’t expect the gate of hell to look like this.
At this time, he noticed two monsters standing on both sides of the ghost gate. Both were human, but one had a bull’s head and the other had a horse’s face.
“Is it a bull-headed horse-faced one?” Zu An was in a daze for a moment, as beings from some fairy tales in his previous life appeared one after another.
At this time, Black and White Wuchang explained from the side: “They guard the gates of ghosts. Sometimes some ghosts escape from the underworld, and they are responsible for catching them. In addition, after the death of some powerful beings, the ghosts still maintain considerable power. In order to prevent them from causing trouble when leading them,
Zu An was worried. “Does it sound like the Bull-headed Horse Face is very powerful?”
“It’s true that the fighting ability is pretty good,” Hei Wuchang replied.
Bai Wuchang seemed to have guessed something, and added: “We brothers are not weaker than them. You must know that there are often very powerful beings in the world who are more difficult to deal with.”
Zu An thought that this guy was afraid that he would despise them, so he took the opportunity to compliment them. After saying a few words to the two of them, Black and White Impermanence suddenly became particularly useful.
Soon the ox-headed horse face also noticed them: “Hey, Black and White Wuchang, who is this? You two are so polite to him.”
“This is our future colleague, the Forgotten River Ferryman, we sent him to take office.” Bai Wuchang was proud. said.
When he heard about the Forgotten River Ferryman, his bull-headed and horse-faced expression suddenly changed. Zu An actually saw a hint of flattery on his ugly face: “It turns out that he is the new one. Black and white and Wuchang are so busy with your work, so leave it to us. ” Brother, just send him there.”
“It just so happens that I don’t have much to do today. I’ll send Brother Zu off to his appointment. You guys have an important position in guarding the Ghost Gate, so don’t worry about it.” Hei Wuchang said with a dark face. Naturally, he already knew Zu An on the way. name.
Zu An originally wanted to give a false name, but he thought that the other party was specialized in seducing people’s souls. If there was some secret method to see people’s names, it would offend them instead.
“It’s not troublesome. Originally, these matters within the Guimen Pass were under the control of our brothers.” The Bull-Headed Horse-Mian also came over, and he enthusiastically wanted to leave with Zu An.
“We have gotten to know Brother Zu along the way, so we can just take him with us,” Bai Wuchang held the mourning stick with a smile on his face, “Really, Brother Zu?”
The atmosphere in the venue suddenly became dignified, and the situation on both sides seemed to be on the verge of breaking out.
Naturally, Zu An didn’t want to refute Bai Wuchang’s face. After agreeing, he raised his hand to the bull-headed horse and said, “After I’m familiar with everything about my job, I’ll come meet with Brother Niu and Brother Ma to thank you for your warm welcome.”
“Haha, when the time comes, It’s up to us to help you clean up the dust.” The smile on the bull-headed horse’s face also returned.
I thought this guy was a good guy.
Black and White Wuchang also glanced at him in surprise. It would be best not to have a head-on conflict with Minotaur Horse Face. He didn’t expect that this kid was quite capable of causing trouble.
After passing the gate of hell, Bai Wuchang suddenly smiled and said: “Brother Zu, you must be very curious about why the Bull-Head-Horse Face is so enthusiastic towards you.”
