When I was a Taoist

Chapter 49 Give Me Back
"No matter what you see for a while, you must not make a sound, and you must not pant heavily. If something goes wrong, I can't protect you two brats."

Taoist Xuanyuan exhorted, and then led me and Fan Chen towards the entrance.Along the way, we passed through the bodies of many wandering ghosts, and our bodies were also gloomy and cold.Even Fan Chen, who has always been calm, has never seen such a scene, and his face became a little unnatural.

A few minutes later, we came to the entrance, and at this time we could finally see the scene behind the passage clearly.Similar to the road into the ghost city, it is also a dark and narrow passage after entering the passage, which is the road connecting the yang world and the underworld.

Logically speaking, this road can only allow ghosts and ghosts from the underworld to pass through, and living people are absolutely not allowed to enter here.But there are exceptions to everything. When Monkey King broke into the underworld, no one could stop him because he relied on his own strength.It's the same now, as long as you have contacts in the underworld, or have a certain strength, you will naturally have the qualifications to enter the underworld.

Pulling us to walk in the aisle, two figures suddenly barged in front of us, blocking the way, and shouted: "Who dares to trespass in the underworld!"

I took a closer look and almost cried out in fright.Where did these two figures look like humans, they had sharp beaks and fangs, their facial features were distorted, and they were holding a steel fork in their hands. They were clearly demons in fairy tales.

"These two are the gatekeepers who guard the passage, don't be afraid."

Taoist Xuanyuan explained a sentence, and then said cursing at the gatekeeper: "You two come and see who I am!"

Hearing this, the two gatekeepers took two steps forward, and after glancing at Taoist Xuanyuan, they knelt down in fright and kowtowed a few times: "So it's Master Xuanyuan, it's the little one who has eyes but no pearls who offended you." .”

Fanchen and I were stunned by the huge contrast between the gatekeepers one after the other, and at the same time became deeply curious about Xuanyuan Taoist's identity.A person who can make gatekeepers bow three times and nine times is not just as simple as a Taoist priest.

"Get out, I'm in a good mood today, I'll spare your lives."

Taoist Xuanyuan waved his hands and said with disgust.And if the two gatekeepers were granted amnesty, they returned to their posts without any hesitation.

Later I heard Taoist Xuanyuan recall that when he was young and vigorous, for some reason he broke into the underworld alone in the Longcheng area, and wounded countless ghost messengers, turning the underworld upside down.In the end, the judge came out and wanted to take his soul away, but he didn't expect to have a hard fight with Taoist Xuanyuan for a long time, but he didn't get the sweetness.

In order not to disturb the high-level officials in the underworld, the judge had no choice but to choose to reconcile with Taoist Xuanyuan.Since then, the Taoist name Xuanyuan Taoist has been spread almost all over the underworld in the Longcheng area.

After listening to his self-report at that time, my blood boiled for a while.Other than Sun Wukong, the only one I know who can make such a big fuss in the underworld and get out of it is Taoist Xuanyuan.But the latter shook his head with a wry smile, and said with emotion: "I was young and vigorous at the time, and I would never do it now. The underworld is much more terrifying than we imagined!"

At the time, I didn't know what this sentence meant, but in the end I realized that the judge was not unable to suppress Taoist Xuanyuan, but rather unwilling to suppress Taoist Xuanyuan.If the judge really wanted to kill, I'm afraid there would not be the Taoist Xuanyuan who is now famous in Dragon City.

After leaving the passage, we officially stepped into the underworld.In mythology, the underworld is a place full of screams and ghosts.In fact, the underworld does look like this, and the overall color is blood red, which makes people feel extremely depressed.

At this time, I also discovered the shortcoming of keen sensitivity.The screams and howls of the ghosts kept echoing in my ears, disturbing my mind, and I tightly covered my ears to block the sound.On the other hand, Fan Chen, although his complexion is not good-looking, but the situation is much lighter than mine.

Just when Fanchen and I felt a little uncomfortable, Taoist Xuanyuan gave us a spell and said: "This spell can isolate the yang energy in your body and relieve the feeling of depression. Remember, no matter what you see , absolutely don’t talk.”

I took the spell as if I had found a treasure, and sure enough, all the previous voices disappeared.The restless heart gradually calmed down.

The noise disappeared, and I was in the mood to look around.After all, this is the first time I have entered the underworld, and I am extremely curious about the things here.

It is said that curiosity killed the cat. I just forgot Xuanyuan Taoist's advice, because my curiosity got me into trouble.

When I saw a thick back nearly two meters high in front of me, I couldn't help being curious.He holds a chain in his hand, and various ghosts are tied to the other end of the chain.You don't need to think too much, you know that the owner of this figure must have some position in the underworld.

I don't know if he noticed my gaze, but the figure started to turn around slowly.And I also held my breath, wanting to see what he looks like.

Although I was prepared in my heart, when I saw his appearance at close range, I was so scared that I almost cried out.I saw this figure with a bull-headed human body, the nails on both hands were extremely sharp, and there were waves of disgusting aura exuding from his body.A pair of copper bell-sized eyes stared at me, as if curious about my identity.

Taoist Xuanyuan frowned, didn't intend to pay attention to Niutou, and pulled Fanchen and me to go directly.But when I passed the bull's head, I couldn't help but take a deep breath because I was too scared.

"There is a breath of life."

Niutou directly stopped us, then stared at me, and said in a deep voice: "You are a living person, why did you come to the underworld?"

"You little guy, why do you keep causing trouble for me?"

Taoist Xuanyuan glared at me, then smiled at Niutou, and said, "I am Taoist Xuanyuan from the Dragon City area, and this time I came to the underworld to talk to your judge."

"Taoist Xuanyuan?"

Niutou bent down and stared at Taoist Xuanyuan for a long time, then finally shook his head and said, "I've never heard of it, but you're trespassing in the underworld, so you don't have to go out today."

After finishing speaking, Niutou shook his palm, and a mace appeared in his hand out of thin air, and then smashed it down towards us.

"Damn, bad luck."

Taoist Xuanyuan uttered a rare swear word, and then waved his palm in front of him, a row of charms stood in the air, making a buzzing sound in the air.

"Give me back!"

Taoist Xuanyuan formed sword fingers and tapped on each talisman.Immediately, the talisman burst into bright golden light, and the ghosts who were bound by the bull's head let out extremely shrill wailing sounds.
