"Tsk, forget it." The little beast snorted in dissatisfaction.
Listening to the humming sound of the little animal, Xiang Yan slightly curved his eyes, and a hint of smile appeared in his eyes.
Although he didn't know why this dark green little beast followed him, Xiang Yan thought it was quite interesting, and it made him want to have a pet.
[Dear, do you want to keep a pet?] Upon hearing Xiang Yan's thoughts, the system, which had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke excitedly, [I have quite a few excellent pets here...]
[No...] Xiang Yan quickly stopped his excited system, [I'm just thinking about it.]
Although it is nice to have a cute pet around, Xiang Yan seems to be encountering ghosts every other day, so he doesn't have much time to take care of it.
But... Xiang Yan looked at the system strangely, [Why are you so excited when you heard that I want to buy a pet?]
The system has no entity. At most, it can only show a rough appearance in Xiang Yan's mind. Even if there is a pet, he can't touch it at all.
I really don't know what he is so excited about.
[Cough.] The system coughed awkwardly, [Nothing, I just want to see what these pets in the system mall look like in the real world.]
After all, there are many differences between pictures and real objects...
[……] Glancing at the strange-looking pets in the mall, Xiang Yan couldn't help but twitched his lips, [Don't even think about it, I won't buy it.]
This world is already very strange, with countless ghosts and monsters, and he doesn't want to create anything else.
[Oh...] The system responded in a low voice with a disappointed tone.
While Xiang Yan was talking to the system, Huihui also brought Xiang Yan to the ninth floor.
"Mr. Xiang, we're here." Huihui introduced the structure of the ninth floor to Yan, "The rooms on the ninth floor are all independent hot spring rooms. Here..."
On the surface, Xiang Yan pretended to listen carefully to Hui Hui's introduction, but in fact he reached his hand into his pocket and touched the slightly warm bronze token.
Just as Huihui introduced a room, the temperature of the token, which was originally slightly hot, suddenly rose.
[Hiss——] Xiang Yan was scalded by the sudden increase in temperature and quickly let go of his hand.
"Let's do it here." Xiang Yan looked at the room in front of him and said to Hui Hui.
"Okay." Hearing Xiang Yan's words, Huihui reacted quickly and stopped talking, then turned around and opened the door of the room Xiang Yan mentioned.
Huihui opened the door and walked in, explaining the uses of the things inside to Xiang Yan as she walked.
However, Xiang Yan's attention was focused on the black hole on the wall of the room after the door opened.
"..." Standing at the door and looking at the black hole on the wall that was getting bigger and bigger, Xiang Yan looked again at Hui Hui who seemed not to see the scene on the wall and was still introducing things seriously. In the end, he could only walk in in silence.
"Wow! It's really here?" The little beast poked its head out and looked curiously at the black hole on the wall.
"Did you know that the entrance to hell was here?" Xiang Yan saw that Huihui didn't notice him, so he lowered his head and asked the little beast in a low voice.
"Hmph." The little beast turned his head and snorted, "If you tell me why you are looking for the entrance to the hell passage, I will tell you what I know, how about it?"
"..." He glanced at the little beast, then at the ghost messenger shell in the system space, and nodded gently, saying, "Okay, I promise you."
"Really?" The little beast looked up at Xiang Yan.
"Really!" Xiang Yan gently pressed the little animal's furry paw with a finger.
"!" The little beast was stunned, then pressed Xiang Yan's hand with its claws, "Deal!"
"?" Hui Hui turned around and looked at Xiang Yan, who was looking at the wall, in confusion. As she walked over, she glanced at the wall with the landscape painting hanging on it, "Mr. Xiang? What's wrong with this painting?"
Xiang Yan took his hand back and shook his head at Hui Hui, "It's okay, I'll take this one."
"Okay." Hui Hui didn't ask any more questions. She nodded and took Xiang Yan to get a card. "Mr. Xiang, do you want a massage? In addition to hot springs, we also have other services..."
“No need.” Xiang Yan waved his hand, indicating that Huihui could leave.
"Okay, if you need anything, you can call me using the phone in the room." Huihui said and turned and left.
She had seen people before who didn't like having other people around when taking a hot spring bath, so she wasn't too surprised by Xiang Yan's request. She agreed and walked out.
After Huihui left, Xiang Yan asked the system to check the room. After finding nothing wrong, he took the little beast and stood in front of the wall with the black hole.
"Hey, can you tell me now? Why are you looking for the entrance to hell?" After Huihui left, the little beast crawled out of Xiang Yan's pocket and stood on the sofa beside him. At this time, he looked up at Xiang Yan seriously.
Xiang Yan guessed that the little animal had a serious look on its face. After all, it was hard to tell any expression on its furry face.
"Hmm..." Xiang Yan lowered his head and looked at the little beast, then slowly said, "The reason..."
despair--
As Xiang Yan spoke, the sound of footsteps rang out in the room.
The little beast looked up warily, and happened to meet the eyes of Ihara, who had a cold and serious expression.
"......?!!" Xiaoshou was stunned, and then quickly realized Yi Yuan's identity, "Ghost messenger?!!!"
Yi Yuan glanced at the little beast calmly, then looked at Xiang Yan and nodded slightly to him, "Thank you for your help."
"It's okay." Xiang Yan curled up the corners of his mouth, smiled and waved his hand.
"..." The little beast looked at Yi Yuan, then looked at Xiang Yan, and then suddenly realized and said: "You came to find the entrance to the hell passage because of the ghost messenger?"
"Yes." Xiang Yan nodded and replied, "Yi Yuan is not suitable to come in and investigate, so let me come in and look for it first."
Xiang Yan's original plan was to find the entrance to the passage, and then take direct action to deal with matters related to the entrance to the hell passage.
Unexpectedly, I met a little beast on the way.
He didn't want to break his original personality of an ordinary person with some abilities. After all, his current appearance was similar to Xiang Yan's usual appearance. Maybe someone would guess the connection between Xiang Yan and Xiang Ye in the future.
So after the little beast appeared, Xiang Yan decided not to do it himself.
"I see." The little beast didn't know what he understood and kept nodding his head.
"Well, that's what happened." Xiang Yan gave Yi Yuan a look, then stepped aside.
Ihara gave him an understanding look, then raised his legs and walked to the wall.
Looking at the black hole on the wall, Ihara raised his hand and took out the Book of Life and Death which he had never used since he got it.
This Book of Life and Death was the weapon given to Yi Yuan when he was the ghost messenger. However, Yi Yuan had been using the Ghost Binding Chain, so the Book of Life and Death had been placed in a corner until it was mentioned by the system today.
[Take out the Book of Life and Death, and then what?] Yi Yuan looked at the black hole in front of him calmly on the surface, but in his heart he was urging the system to do the opposite.
The dark hole in front of him was really scary. Ihara was really afraid that he would be sucked in if he was not careful.
[Press the Book of Life and Death against the wall.] The system said to Ihara.
The Book of Life and Death belongs to hell and has a deep connection with hell. Now the passage between hell and the human world is in an unstable state, and it is about to open. Using the Book of Life and Death as an introduction can stabilize the entrance of the passage.
Yi Yuan followed the system's instructions and pressed the Book of Life and Death against the wall. The flickering black hole shook violently for a moment and then became stable. The shaking black hole turned a few circles and then slowly turned into a black door.
After the black door became solid and the patterns on it became clearly visible, the Book of Life and Death fell back into Ihara's hands.
"!" Ihara was actually startled by the scene in front of him, but he thought of the little beast in the room, so he tried hard to straighten his face and not show any surprise.
"The Gate of Hell..." The little beast looked at the door on the wall and muttered softly, then jumped off the sofa and walked towards the door.
As the little animal walked, the palm-sized animal gradually grew larger and its body became much longer. By the time it reached the door, the originally cute little animal had turned into a mighty and domineering beast.
There were golden eyes on the lion-like face, and the jade-white antlers on the head were shining. As he spoke, his sharp teeth that looked scary were revealed.
“…”
“…”
Looking at the little beast that suddenly transformed, Xiang Yan and Yi Yuan were stunned for a moment.
However, before Xiang Yan and the others could react, the little beast had already walked past Yi Yuan and came to the gate of hell. He raised his paw and pressed against the door.
Crunch————
The door was slowly pushed open.
“Eh?!” Seeing the little beast preparing to go in, Xiang Yan couldn’t help but say, “Wait, you…”
Hearing Xiang Yan's voice, the little beast turned around and looked at him, with a humane comforting look in his golden eyes, "Don't worry, I'm just going back to where I should be."
After saying that, the little beast raised its legs and walked into the dark gate of hell.
Click——
The door closed again.
As if shocked by what was happening before their eyes, Yi Yuan and Xiang Yan did not speak for a long time.
"Uh... go back to where we should be?" Xiang Yan asked the system in confusion.
[Hmm...] The system was silent for a long time before answering Xiang Yan's question: [It seems to be a creature from hell.]
The author has something to say: Xiang Ye’s identity will not be revealed, which means no one will guess that he is Xiang Yan. As for the other Xuzi, I will not spoil the plot and will talk about them later.
