Chapter 442 Immortal Land
"Didn't you already leave? When did you run behind me?"
Meng Shian looked surprised.
Jiang Ci shrugged and lowered his voice: "I didn't leave after I jumped down. The cat is next to me."
"Are you waiting for me to come down?" Meng Shian's heart moved.
"I guess so." Jiang Ci said, "As soon as I came down, Uncle Luo followed closely behind, and so did you."
"Uncle Luo..."
"He was the one who instigated those people to come here." Jiang Ci said indifferently.
Meng Shian was shocked: "Uncle Luo instigated it? How could it be?"
"They were kept in the pigsty for so long. If no one told them, how would they know where the corpse oil was?"
Meng Shian reacted quickly, his face darkened, "Uncle Luo must have done this to let them morally blackmail you, so that he can also take the opportunity to leave the Prison Immortal Land."
"This is too much! How can you joke about human life?"
Jiang Ci smiled faintly: "So there's no rush, let them take the lead, I'll go in slowly."
Meng Shian suddenly realized.
"As for you." Jiang Ci pointed to the original path, "Go back, I'll just drop you off here."
Meng Shian shook his head: "No, Uncle Luo has teamed up with those people. I'm afraid they will do something bad to you. I'd better go with you."
"Master Jiang, don't worry. I brought enough amulets and oil lamps. It will be no problem for me to return the same way when the time comes."
Jiang Ci couldn't persuade him.
The two walked slowly into the darkness.
Meng Shian frowned: "Why do I feel it is so quiet? Where are those monsters?"
"They attracted his fire and he ran into deeper places," Jiang Ci said, illuminating the ground with an oil lamp.
The ground was littered with messy white bones, rotten flesh, and a thick layer of black mud.
When you step on it, the feeling is as if you are stepping on rotten flesh, it's so exciting.
The deeper they went, the dark mud became deeper, reaching past their ankles and down to their calves.
Meng Shian whispered, "Fortunately, the strange fragrance from the oil lamp covered up the stench, otherwise I would be poisoned if I took a breath."
"By the way, Master Jiang, what exactly are you looking for?"
Jiang Ci: "Have you heard of Hanba?"
Meng Shian thought for a moment and nodded: "When I was studying in our world, I read about it in ancient legends. Hanba is a zombie, right? Legend has it that when Hanba appears, a thousand miles of scorched earth will be covered. Is this just a legend?"
In the end, even he himself was not sure.
He was an atheist until he saw a ghost with his own eyes...
Refreshing worldview.
Since arriving at the Immortal Prison Land in the Middle Thousand Worlds, my worldview has been refreshed once again...
Maybe there really is a drought demon in the world, but he just doesn't understand it because of his vision and knowledge.
"It's not a legend, it's true." Jiang Ci said, "Do you know the Classic of Mountains and Seas?"
"Yes, I know."
"That's not a legend, it's a record."
Meng Shian was shocked: "Record? Is everything in it true?"
"Yes, but most of them happened outside the small world, just like the Kunlun Mountain in the small world is not the real Kunlun. Hanba is also real. I chased it here and it was hiding under the mountain of corpses."
Meng Shian hesitated for a moment, "Master Jiang, do you really believe what the old man said?"
"He doesn't seem to like your arrival. What if he just tricked you into going under the pile of corpses and wanted to get rid of you with the help of the monsters?"
Jiang Ci smiled slightly: "No, my divination shows that Hanba is indeed here. Even if that old man deceives me, I have a way to escape unscathed."
"I'll settle the score with him when the time comes."
"I really hope there is an exit under the mountain of corpses so that you can get out."
The two chatted as they walked, and the mud under their feet became deeper and deeper.
When Meng Shian pulled his foot out, a piece of face skin was stuck with it, with a shriveled eyeball hanging on it.
"Fuck!"
He hurriedly swung his feet and finally managed to get his face and eyeballs off. Then he saw half a head popping out where Jiang Ci had stepped.
Meng Shian quickly looked away, pretending not to see it and continued walking forward.
After walking a few steps, he always felt that someone was staring at him from behind, and it felt cold and eerie.
Looking back.
He saw the half head following behind him, with only the black hole of half an eye seeming to be looking directly at him.
At first Meng Shian didn't take it seriously, until he deliberately walked a few steps left and right and saw half a head following him left and right, he was sure that this half head was targeting him.
He looked forward and saw Master Jiang was seriously looking for Hanba, so it was not convenient to disturb her.
He turned around, carefully clasped his hands together in front of his half head, and prayed quietly: "Whether you are the eldest brother or the eldest sister, please don't follow me. I am just an ordinary person and can't help you. Please go."
Half of his head was motionless.
Meng Shian thought it was settled and took two steps.
Half a head followed again.
His temper also flared up.
"I really don't want to kick you away. This is my last warning."
Half of the head refused to give in.
Every time he took a step forward, his head followed.
"I told you not to follow me anymore!" Meng Shian couldn't help but raise his voice a little.
When Jiang Ci heard the noise, he turned around and saw him pointing at half of his head and cursing.
"What's going on?"
Meng Shian complained: "I don't know what happened, it targeted me and followed me all the way."
Jiang Ci looked at it and said faintly, "Lift your feet."
Meng Shian obediently raised his left foot.
"Nothing."
"Another one."
He lifted his right foot again and saw a black mass wrapped around his ankle, which seemed to be the hair on that half head.
Meng Shi'an was so embarrassed that his scalp went numb, and he quickly swung his knife to cut off his hair.
"Ahem, I thought it was haunted, but it turns out I was the one dragging that head around."
Jiang Ci said: "Although this place is full of yin energy, there are no ghosts."
Meng Shian was surprised and asked, "After the prisoners died, where are their souls?"
"This is the terrifying thing about the Prison Immortal Land. In addition to torturing the bodies and wills of the prisoners, when they die, their souls will also perish and turn into nothingness, with no afterlife."
"I don't know what mistakes they made in heaven. When I watched TV dramas before, didn't they just remove their immortal bones and send them to the mortal world? Why do they have to imprison them and let their souls disappear forever?"
Jiang Ci shook his head: "I don't know much about the fairyland."
"Fairyland?"
"The Immortal Land is also called the Eternal Forbidden Pure Land. In the common language of the small world, it means the Immortal Realm."
Jiang Ci told the truth, she really didn't know much about the fairyland.
Because thousands of years ago, although she was very powerful, she had never ascended to heaven.
Logically speaking, with her level of cultivation at that time, she should have been able to ascend to heaven long ago, but she didn't.
Her master once said that she was destined not to become an immortal.
So she stopped pursuing immortality and instead practiced Taoism as she pleased.
