The hall was still filled with the pleasant and fragrant smell of soup.
Youhui came down and sniffed it hard with his nose, "What a nice smell! This Mengpo soup is really fragrant."
Seeing this, Zhang Meng quickly warned him, "Comrade Youhui, you've been sniffing too much. This Mengpo soup has the ability to bewitch people. If you sniff too much, you might end up drinking it without even knowing it."
When Youhui heard this, his face turned pale with fear and he quickly covered his nose with his hand. "Okay, I won't smell it anymore. Thank you Comrade Zhang for reminding me."
Zhang Meng looked at the big bag that Gu Mingtai was carrying. "Gu Mingtai, there are steamed buns in it. Take them out and share them with everyone."
Gu Mingtai nodded, opened the bag, took out four steamed buns, and gave one to each person.
"Hey, why are you still eating steamed buns? I've prepared some wine and snacks here, come and have some."
Meng Po had appeared not far behind them at some point, waving at them with a smile on her face.
"No need, we have our own food with us, you can eat your food yourself." Zhang Meng immediately refused.
Meng Po smiled and said, "What's wrong? You don't dare to eat my food?"
Zhang Meng sneered, "So what? We really don't dare to eat anything you have here!"
Meng Po laughed loudly, moved her feet, and in the blink of an eye she walked in front of them, or to be more precise, stood in front of Gu Mingtai.
A white and soft arm flashed before Zhang Meng's eyes, then suddenly turned and rested on Gu Mingtai's shoulder. "Comrade, that's what you call it over there, right? Look how hard it is for a woman like me to cook. You should be more gentle with me, right? Do you want to eat this dish of mine?"
The words can touch people's hearts.
Zhang Meng walked forward with her eyes wide open and unhappy, and removed the annoying hand from Gu Mingtai's shoulder. Finally, she patted his shoulder a few more times before she gave up.
Meng Po chuckled and continued as if nothing had happened, "I cooked that dish using normal food from your mortal world. If you want to discuss that matter with me, then sit down and eat with me. If not, you can leave Meng Po Manor now. I, Meng Po, will not stop you."
Gu Mingtai glared at her coldly and said, "This is the last time. If it happens again, I will cut off your hand immediately."
As soon as he finished the warning, he took Zhang Meng's hand and sat down at a table not far away.
Youhui had a hint of loss on his face. He glanced at the smiling woman in front of him and felt a little empty in his heart. He quickly came to his senses and followed Gu Mingtai.
Meng Po snorted and laughed, twisting her graceful waist and walking away.
Although they were sitting at this table, Zhang Meng and others did not touch a single bite of the food.
Seeing this, Meng Po curled her charming little lips, picked up a piece of chicken and put it in her mouth, eating while saying, "Didn't you ask me before what I need you to do for me? I can tell you now, I want you to help me find a heartless man. If you see him, help me beat him up. It would be best if he is beaten so hard that even his mother can't recognize him." After saying that, Meng Po took a sip of the wine in front of her.
After finishing her drink, she pulled out a wooden hairpin from her hair and placed it on the table. "This is the guide you asked for. If you agree to help me with this, I will give it to you."
Gu Mingtai grabbed it first and lowered his eyes to look at the wooden hairpin in his hand, which was so ordinary that it couldn't be more ordinary.
Meng Po smiled and said, "Don't worry, since I have something to ask of you, I will naturally not deceive you with fake things."
Gu Mingtai glanced at her and said calmly, "We can agree to what you just said. Just tell us your name."
"Hou Qing, I think that's his name. It's been so long, I almost forgot his name." As she spoke, Meng Po's eyes gradually became moist.
Realizing that she seemed to be crying, Meng Po quickly sniffed and said with a Xiao Jiu look, "That's the name. If you see anyone with this name, beat him up and beat him half to death."
Her ferocious look made the two men present feel sympathetic.
With the guide, the three adults and one child said goodbye to Mengpo Village and continued walking on the Yellow Springs Road while it was still broad daylight.
On the rest of the journey, the three adults and one child actually encountered several groups of ghost soldiers patrolling in this blue sky and yellow spring. Fortunately, because they had clues with them, they were able to pass through safely.
After walking for a whole day, they finally reached the true entrance to the underworld just before dark. At the entrance stood two stone statues of three-headed hellhounds.
"Do you feel it's cold here?" Youhui rubbed his arms and exhaled a circle of white air as he spoke.
"It's really cold." Zhang Meng's teeth were chattering from the cold.
Gu Mingtai looked at them and said, "This is the underworld. The Yin energy is naturally heavier than anywhere else. Everyone, quickly mobilize your spiritual energy to resist the Yin intention."
When Zhang Meng channeled spiritual energy into herself, she also channeled some spiritual energy into the little zombie.
Although Xiao Zhuang is a yin-type zombie, there is no guarantee that the yin energy in the underworld will be harmful to his body. Zhang Meng dare not take the risk.
Finally, they felt less cold and began to look carefully at the two huge three-headed stone dog statues in front of them.
They are carved so lifelike that I don't know which master carved them. The dog hair, dog eyes and sharp dog teeth are all as realistic as those on a real dog.
"You know what, these three-headed dogs are carved quite realistically. Fortunately, they are not real. If they were real, we would be finished." Youhui said with a smile.
Zhang Meng followed suit with a smile. Gu Mingtai, his face tense, said immediately, "Stop talking and get in quickly. I have a feeling these two things are here for a reason. Let's hurry in and talk about it."
When Youhui and Zhang Meng heard what he said, they immediately nodded in agreement. In fact, they were a little uneasy at the moment, as if something bad was going to happen.
