Chapter 333 Becoming a Heavenly Master
Shao Mengting remained silent, lowered her eyes, and followed the waitress silently.
Her mind was in a mess at the moment. Everything that the Mountain God said was too shocking. To her, becoming an alien was full of temptation, but also filled with deep unknowns and fears.
She thought about her past experiences. She had been carrying the stigma of "mother-killer" since she was a child and suffered cold stares in her father's home. Later, she experienced natural disasters and was separated from her maternal family. Although her life in the orphanage was stable, it was also dull.
Now that such an opportunity to change her fate suddenly appeared before her, she was a little overwhelmed.
Seeing that Shao Mengting had been silent, the waitress became increasingly anxious. She stopped, held Shao Mengting's shoulders with both hands, looked directly into her eyes, and said earnestly, "Tingting, please say something! Think about it, after becoming an alien, you can protect yourself and your friends in the orphanage.
No matter what danger you encounter in the future, you will be able to deal with it. How great is that! Don't hesitate any longer and agree to what the mountain god wants. ”
Shao Mengting raised her head, her eyes full of confusion and entanglement. She said softly, "Sister, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I am really scared. To become an alien, I will have to face so many strange and dangerous things. I am afraid I won't be able to do well. Besides, although my life is dull now, it is also very stable. I can't bear to leave the orphanage and everyone."
After hearing this, the waitress sighed slightly and said, "Silly child, you are short-sighted. It is good to be safe and stable, but think about it, if one day the orphanage encounters a big trouble, ordinary people like us will be powerless to resist.
But if you become an extraordinary person, you can become everyone's support. Moreover, since the mountain god is willing to accept you, he will definitely protect you and teach you skills. This is an opportunity that many people dream of, you must not miss it.
Don’t you want to find your grandparents? As long as you become an extraordinary person, your name will definitely spread throughout the entire territory of Lord Mountain God. Are you still afraid of not being able to find them? ”
…
A few days later, Yang Xiangwei received a response from Shao Mengting - she wanted to become an alien.
No matter what the reason was for Shao Mengting to agree in the end, Yang Xiangwei was happy from the bottom of her heart.
In this world, women often face many difficulties and obstacles. Having the power to protect themselves is undoubtedly a solid shield for them, and they no longer need to fear being "abandoned" by anyone.
Yang Xiangwei herself was once a woman, and she knows deeply the difficulties women face in life. Every step is difficult, and if one wants to live a good life, one has to work tirelessly and strive to climb upward.
"Good boy, now that you have made up your mind, start your journey of cultivation from today. This road may be full of thorns and challenges, but as long as you persevere, you will achieve something."
Yang Xiangwei raised her hand, and an ancient book slowly emerged in her palm. There were mysterious runes engraved on the cover, emitting a faint light.
"This is the Yin-Yang Secret Book, which is the basic secret book for practicing the power of the Yin-Yang Eyes. You need to study it carefully and practice according to the instructions above."
Yang Xiangwei handed the secret book to Shao Mengting. Shao Mengting took it with both hands and felt a warmth coming from her palms, as if this secret book had established some kind of wonderful connection with her.
"From today on, you will still live in the orphanage during the day. At night, I will enter your dreams and personally guide you in your practice. Remember, practice is not only about increasing your strength, but also about sharpening your mind. You must not be impatient." Yang Xiangwei warned.
Shao Mengting nodded heavily and said, "Lord Mountain God, I will definitely work hard!"
…
For the people living in the territory of the mountain god, the appearance of the underworld was initially like a distant dark shadow on the horizon, seemingly having nothing to do with their daily lives.
After all, that is the resting place of the deceased, a mysterious place that is out of reach for the living, and it does not seem to cause any waves in their current lives.
However, as time goes by, the existence of the underworld is like a breeze, quietly changing the customs of the territory.
Some street thieves who are used to petty thefts usually satisfy their selfish desires by stealing and robbing. Even if they are caught, they just deal with the punishment with a frivolous smile and never change their ways.
After all, it is impossible for the mountain god to care about such trivial matters as theirs. Even if he asks for help, he will only ask the village chief or the elders of the clan.
But when the story of the "Eighteen Levels of Hell" spread among the people, these people could no longer sit still.
They gathered in the streets and alleys, listening to the storytellers exaggerating the various cruel punishments in hell: in the tongue-pulling hell, those who lied and deceived others had their tongues pulled out by iron pliers, and blood splattered everywhere; in the scissors hell, women who instigated others to do evil had their ten fingers cut off by sharp scissors, and the pain was excruciating; and in the steamer hell, those who spread rumors and caused trouble were steamed until their skin was torn apart, and their cries were endless...
These vivid descriptions, like a cold wind, penetrated straight into their hearts and made them shudder.
In the past, they only sought small gains in the present and never thought about the retribution after death.
But now, when they thought about how they would be tortured in this horrible hell after death if they continued to do evil, endless fear overwhelmed them like a tide.
So, these former "troublemakers" began to restrain themselves.
"Brother Lin, are we really going to retire from the underworld from now on?"
The man called "Brother Lin" glared at Xiao Liu and said, "What should we do? Do you want to go to hell?"
Xiao Liu grumbled, with a look of disapproval on his face, "Brother Lin, you are too gullible. Who knows whether this story of the Eighteen Levels of Hell is true or not? Maybe it was just made up by storytellers to attract attention."
Brother Lin glared at Xiao Liu fiercely and spat in annoyance, "You know shit! This is the territory of the Lord Mountain God. The Lord Mountain God probably doesn't bother to care about our daily petty thefts.
But since this matter of the underworld can be spread so bizarrely and is even being spread right under the nose of the mountain god, could it be false? I don't want to joke with my own life. If I am really thrown into that horrible hell after death, there will be no escape. ”
Xiao Liu curled his lips, still feeling unconvinced, but he didn't dare to talk back to Brother Lin.
The son of Mr. Li in the village died, leaving behind a young and beautiful wife, whom Xiao Liu had been thinking about for a long time.
As soon as it got dark that day, he sneaked up to the wall of someone's house, trying to seduce her.
He didn't expect such luck. It was amazing. He happened to meet Lao Li's daughter-in-law carrying a bath tray. He knew at a glance that she was going to take a bath.
He looked around with a sly look in his eyes, then crept over.
But just as he was watching intently, a gust of cold wind blew by, and Xiao Liu shivered all over.
He turned his head subconsciously and saw a man with a pale face and bloodshot eyes staring at him. The man exuded a bone-chilling coldness. It was Lao Li's son.
“Ahhhh… ghost…”
Xiao Liu was so frightened that his face turned pale instantly, his legs went limp, and he fell directly from the courtyard wall, sitting on his butt on the ground.
He got up in a panic and ran out of Old Li's house.
