C9 The home of the ghost
Upon seeing this, Kai Ye let out a small sigh. Although it was inaudible, Ah'Bao who was a beast heard it clearly. The bird's head was even lower, seemingly wanting to bury it between its two front legs.
"I already said, no matter what mistakes you make, I will forgive you. You don't have to hide from me like they did!" Thinking about it, he shook his head with a wry smile, "Forget it, I'll heal your wounds first!" "You can do whatever you want to me, whether it's leaving or staying!"
Then, he walked towards the dog, with one hand on its back, he slowly moved his Qi into the palm of his hand.
Ah'Bao didn't want to accept his master's inner force for no reason. He twisted his body and let out a whimper.
Kai Ye was originally not a patient person. He hated people who dared to disobey him even more. Seeing Ah'Bao like this, his heart became even more furious. With a fierce glare, Ah'Bao immediately quietened down!
After it was over, Kai Ye waved his sleeves and decisively left!
Ah'Bao, who had lost his hair, could only look at the departing figure of Kai Ye with misty eyes …
After returning to the main hall, he called out the guards he had assigned to the Nangong Palace to issue a killing order to Bai Mu.
Bai Mu had carefully followed Qin Qianqian all the way back, but he still hadn't reached Xiao Qian's home even after walking for so long. One could imagine how big this corpse mountain was, and how many people had been poisoned by this underground palace.
However, this process truly made Bai Mu feel a little uncomfortable.
Did you walk down the path of human bones? Have you ever seen those bones move with the movement of a person? Not only that, even the sound you make will resonate a few times in the air before emitting a "jie jie" sound!
What the heck, this was simply destroying one's mental state!
Looking at Xiao Qian floating in front of him, the scenery around him changed with her movements. To be honest, when Bai Mu heard her and looked, his heart trembled!
How could he just follow like that?
"Xiao Qian, wait for me!" The moment Bai Mu finished his sentence, the sound of his fist striking the wall formed from bones echoed in the air, giving rise to goosebumps all over Bai Mu.
Hearing the sound, Qin Qianqian turned around gracefully, and after her eyes met with Bai Mu's, she stuck out her index finger and made a "hush" gesture. She narrowed her eyes with a hint of rebuke.
Although he didn't know why Xiao Qian wouldn't let him speak loudly, Bai Mu still did as he was told. The main thing was that he didn't seem to be hearing that eerie and chilling voice.
Carefully stepping on the bone, Bai Mu only felt a strong suction force. Before he could call for help, he was sucked into a white space.
After confirming that he was about to faint, Bai Mu started examining the surroundings. In the end, Bai Mu concluded that he had entered a completely sealed off box.
Only when he saw Xiao Qian beside him did Bai Mu take a deep breath. He thought Xiao Qian had been taken away by some other ghost.
This should be Xiao Qian's home. It looked a little shabby, but when she looked over, she saw Xiao Qian standing on the ground with a pair of white embroidered shoes.
"Xiao Qian, can your feet touch the ground?"
"Hmm, not bad!" Qin Qianqian nodded doubtfully.
"Why are you three inches off the ground when you can reach the ground? You're floating, you're scary!"
Xiao Qian smiled gently, "We Yin Spirits do not have a physical body like humans. If your feet touch the ground, not only will it damage your yin body, it will also allow the yin realm to discover your existence! "
"But aren't you just stepping on the ground now?"
"Hm!" This is my house, so it's different. Every corner of this house is made up of my own bones, so everything has a protective barrier. "Ordinary ghosts cannot discover it, nor can they enter."
"A home made of bones!?" Bai Mu was not only in a state of disarray, he also had the urge to smash his head into a wall.
"Grandmother, isn't this idea of yours a little too weird?" To hide in one's own bones while leaving the coffin untouched, is indeed a little bit abnormal. "
As Bai Mu thought of this, he naturally didn't dare to say it out loud. He only considered it for a moment, curious about why such a small bone could be used in such a large space.
However, when Bai Mu asked this question, Qin Qianqian changed the topic. Regarding this, he didn't want to say it.
Seeing that she didn't want to say anything, Bai Mu naturally didn't want to incite any annoyance, so he asked, "Since that's the case, why did you save me? Now that I have discovered this place, are you not afraid that I am your enemy? "
Xiao Qian looked helpless. "Young Master Bai Mu, which question do you want me to answer?"
"Eh?" Bai Mu rubbed his nose embarrassedly.
"Actually, I don't know why I saved you either. I don't think the person who would oppose the underground palace would be my enemy." As she said that, the hatred in Xiao Qian's eyes flashed. Such a gaze made even Bai Mu somewhat astonished. Was this the tyrannical aura of a legendary ghost? There was indeed a sinister feeling.
However, from the looks of it, the grudge between Xiao Qian and the underground palace was quite deep.
Qin Qianqian said, "And what you are saying about the resentment we spirits have toward you humans is actually not there at all. However, there were also those who wanted to fulfill their selfish desires and take revenge on those who were still alive.
But you don't have to worry, you guys have the same special ability as us, at least call it spiritual energy. When humans die, it is inconvenient for them to turn into Yin Spirits, so they can stimulate the spiritual energy before their death. We call this spiritual energy that is exposed, and this spiritual energy can be freely used by us. As humans, only the spiritual energy that you reveal, other than using special methods to activate it and train it, can we use it like we do.
Even though ordinary people could not directly use it, the spiritual energy within would still protect them, causing them to inflict a certain amount of damage to the ghosts that harmed them. Therefore, under normal circumstances, Humans and ghosts do not have many interactions. "
After hearing what Qin Qianqian had to say, Bai Mu felt emotional and even scoffed at her, "Yin spirits are the same as humans. Humans are innocent too, they are innocent too. It's just that both sides reject them. Good people, bad people, good ghost and evil spirit. Think about it, some people can't even compare to ghosts and evil spirits! "
Looking at Bai Mu, Qin Qianqian thought she was scaring him. After all, it was a human's dream to stay away from such a filthy thing like ghosts. She couldn't help but feel apologetic as she thought about it.
"Master Bai Mu, what's wrong?"
Coming back to his senses, he smiled and waved his hand, "I'm fine, I just like to walk around in peace! "Oh right, please don't address me as Gongzi. It feels weird just by hearing it. Just call me Bai Mu!"
Qin Qianqian blushed when she heard that. "Yes, Bai Mu!"
Bai Mu didn't notice the blushing woman beside him. He sized up the room and asked, "Why didn't you allow me to make a sound when I was outside?"
Qin Qianqian had a good impression of him. Bai Mu looked like a rogue on the street. However, he would never retreat in the face of danger, and even had courage and perseverance that ordinary people did not possess.
Thinking about how he would not accept defeat when fighting with Kai Ye's pet, and how he did not show any rejection due to being a beast race, she knew that this person was not as unreasonable as he appeared to be.
More likely, this sort of dissonance was just a disguise for his personal emotions.
Although she didn't know why he came to this underground city, at this moment, Qin Qianqian believed it was the will of Heaven that brought him here. The thousands and thousands of Undead here might be able to be saved by him.
This was one of the reasons why she brought him to her house.
Thus, when Bai Mu asked him where he was, and even asked him about some of the taboos, she always told him the truth.
"Because this is the Ghost Hole, and there are over ten million ghosts living here. In order to not alarm them, I didn't let you make too much noise."
"Hiss!"
Upon hearing these words, Bai Mu sucked in a breath of cold air.
"The Ghost Cave ah, doesn't that mean that tens of millions of ghosts live here? Isn't it very dangerous for me? " Just thinking about how this mountain was filled with A-Piao, Bai Mu could not calm himself down.
As if she saw through Bai Mu's thoughts, Qin Qianqian comforted him, "Don't worry, they are not here yet! As I said, this is my private residence. Not only can it block the breath of humans, it also has a rule that no one is allowed to enter! "
Only after hearing these words did Bai Mu calm down.
"However, I have a question. You... Shouldn't we go to the Underworld? "Why are you just staying on Earth?"
"Hahaha, Underworld, is that place something we can ask for?" Qin Qianqian laughed as if she heard a joke, but there was bitterness in her laughter, "Underworld? "At that time, I thought that even if I died, I would be able to continue being a human after I ate Grandma Meng's Soup and forgot everything that had happened. Who would have thought …" Qin Qianqian was silent as she spoke till this point, as if she had touched a sore spot …
Looking at Qin Qianqian's lifeless eyes, Bai Mu felt sympathy for her but did not say a word. He was waiting for her to change to his.
He understood that silence was often the best way to lick a scar.
Xiao Qian came back to her senses and said with a wry smile, "Sorry, I let you down just now!"
Bai Mu shook his head and replied in a calm voice, "I don't mind. If you trust me, you can tell me about the past. Maybe I can help you with something!"
Seeing the sincerity in Bai Mu's eyes, Xiao Qian's heart was slightly moved. She had already decided to believe in this man she had just met today! "Alright, since it's an old story, there's nothing wrong with talking about it!" It was as if he had made up his mind.
Bai Mu didn't reply. He knew that his greatest mission now was to act as a loyal listener!
It turned out that Qin Qianqian and her people were all civilians that had suffered from the war. Some had been reincarnated, while others had been taken captive by the Lord of the Underground Palace, Qi Ye. In order to control these undead, their corpses were now buried in this land.
