Chapter 399 Past and Present Life (VIII)
After sending away another group of ghosts, Yaohua sat down tiredly under the tree and closed his eyes.
Suddenly, a cold palm gently covered her head, and the Yin energy spread from the palm into her body, helping her to recover her strength.
Yaohua opened her eyes and saw Di Xiao.
"Di Xiao, why are you here?"
"You've restored so many souls in one day. Do you want your souls to be scattered?" There was a hint of anxiety and regret in Emperor Xiao's tone.
Yaohua lowered her eyes slightly: "I just want them to leave in a dignified manner."
"Most of these ghosts have blood on their hands. Are such heinous ghosts worth your energy?" Di Xiao frowned.
"I don't know." Yaohua pursed her lips and whispered.
Di Xiao withdrew his hand, looked at Yao Hua's depressed mood and said helplessly:
"Don't be sad. They were born in war, and it's fate that they became like this. It has nothing to do with you."
"Why? Why do we have to fight?" Yaohua's eyes were filled with deep confusion.
"In the human world, some people sacrifice for the happiness of more people," said Di Xiao.
"The lives of a group of people are lives, but the life of one person is not life? Can't we live happily without fighting?" Yaohua asked doubtfully.
Di Xiao didn't say anything, just looked at Yao Hua steadily.
After a long time, the Ghost Gate opened again, and another group of armored soldiers or generals were sent in.
Yaohua was about to mobilize his strength but was stopped by Dixiao.
"Let them leave immediately. Even if their souls are restored, they will still be burdened with the sins they bear."
Yaohua paused, watching those ghosts covered in blood walking across the Naihe Bridge at the urging of the ghost soldiers.
Di Xiao gently stroked Yao Hua's hair and said, "After this period of time, the human world will be peaceful. I will take you to see the human world."
Yaohua didn't say anything. Going to the human world no longer aroused her interest.
This scene between Di Xiao and Yao Hua happened to fall into Xuan Mo's eyes, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.
Yaohua, you really have been secretly having an affair with Di Xiao. Your master has been so good to you, but you dare to let him down? I will never allow it!
There is no day or night in the underworld, and Yaohua has no idea how many souls he has sent away.
Di Xiao would come to accompany Yaohua for a while every day. After he left, Yaohua would go to find Bai Mu and tell him about her sadness.
It was unknown how long it had passed, but the war seemed to be over, because a man in a dragon robe emerged from the ghost gate. Yaohua knew that this was the emperor of the human world.
His death probably means the end of a country.
On this side, after absorbing the Jade Spring Drink, Jiuyou completely retreated from his butterfly body, and the butterfly pattern on his face also completely disappeared.
Now he is almost indistinguishable from a human being.
"Hua'er, I finally shed my butterfly form!" Jiuyou excitedly told Yaohua the news.
Yao Hua looked at Jiu You and smiled with satisfaction: "This is even better looking than before!"
Jiuyou smiled and said, "Thanks to you. If it weren't for you, I don't know when I would be able to completely retreat from the butterfly body!"
As he was speaking, Di Xiao appeared in front of Yao Hua: "Yao Hua."
After seeing Emperor Xiao, Yaohua's expression became obviously happier.
"Emperor Xiao, you're here!"
Jiuyou narrowed his eyes and looked at Dixiao, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes.
Over the years, Di Xiao has been coming to see Yao Hua non-stop, and Yao Hua seems to have an increasingly close relationship with him.
But Mingyuan and Dixiao are mortal enemies. If this continues, a war between them will break out sooner or later.
"Why is the Emperor here again? Is there nothing to do in Fengdu City?" Jiuyou asked coldly.
Emperor Xiao didn't even glance at Jiuyou:
"Yaohua, an evil ghost escaped from Fengdu City today. He entered the cycle of reincarnation before crossing the Naihe Bridge. I'm afraid there will be trouble, so I need to go to the human world. Would you like to come with me?"
"Go to the human world!" Yaohua's eyes lit up slightly, and then he quickly looked at Jiuyou:
"Jiuyou, you said before that you would guard the Ghost Gate for me after you retreated behind the butterfly. Do you still mean what you said?"
"Of course it counts, but..."
Before Jiuyou finished speaking, Yaohua immediately smiled and said, "Great, I can finally go to the human world!"
"Hua'er, if you leave the underworld without permission, Mingyuan will not agree!" Jiuyou said hurriedly.
"But you clearly said before that as long as the Ghost Gate is guarded, I can enter and exit freely." Yaohua frowned.
"I'm worried..."
Jiuyou stopped talking midway and looked at Dixiao:
"Emperor, may I have a moment with you?"
"Nine Nether Butterfly, I know what you want to say and what I am doing. I will talk to Mingyuan about it myself. You don't have to worry about Yaohua's safety."
After Di Xiao finished speaking in a cold voice, he disappeared into the underworld with Yao Hua.
At the same time, Mingyuan in the Hades Palace suddenly opened his eyes.
"Emperor Owl!"
Mingyuan's eyes tightened, and then he disappeared from the spot.
In the human world, Emperor Xiao brought Yaohua to a grassland.
It was March, the season of lush grass and singing birds. The grassland was emerald green, and a few flowers swayed in the wind, which was a beautiful sight.
Yaohua ran excitedly on the grass.
"Is this the human world? It's even more beautiful than what those ghosts said!"
"This is just a corner of the world. There are many more interesting places!" Di Xiao said with a smile.
"Di Xiao, are you familiar with the human world?" Yao Hua asked.
"At least I know it better than you do. I'll show you around the city."
As he spoke, Di Xiao took Yaohua's hand.
Yaohua was slightly stunned and felt the warmth in the palm of her hand. Di Xiao's hand seemed to have some warmth.
Seeing that Yaohua did not refuse his hand holding, Dixiao could not help but grin to his temples.
When we arrived in the city, we found that it was still prosperous after the war, and the streets were filled with the shouts of vendors and the aroma of snacks.
"Meng Po Soup, selling Meng Po Soup. If it doesn't taste good, no money!"
This shout successfully attracted Yaohua's attention.
"Why is there Mengpo soup for sale in this human world? Could it be that Sister Mengpo has also come to the human world?" Yaohua asked in surprise.
"I haven't tried it either, you can go and have a look." Di Xiao said with a smile.
Yaohua came to the stall and saw that the person selling Mengpo soup was a small vendor, not the beautiful Mengpo.
"This is Mengpo soup. It doesn't look anything like the one Sister Mengpo makes!" Yaohua asked in confusion.
The peddler was stunned for a moment after hearing Yaohua's words, then laughed and said:
"Miss, this isn't real Meng Po soup, but it's just as delicious as Meng Po soup. Drinking it will make you forget your worries. Would you like to have a bowl to try?"
Yaohua couldn't help but frown. She had tasted the soup made by Sister Mengpo, and it didn't taste very good. She wondered what this human Mengpo soup would be like.
"Okay, then give me a bowl!" Yaohua said with a smile.
"Okay! A bowl of Mengpo soup, please take a seat, gentlemen!" the vendor said hurriedly.
Soon, Mengpo soup came up.
It is called Mengpo soup, but it is actually a sweet soup made with some dried fruits and glutinous rice balls. It is sweet and delicious.
Yaohua took a small sip and found it unusually novel: "It's so sweet, even sweeter than Jiuyou's peach blossom honey. Dixiao, you should try it too."
