Holding back the fear in his heart, Hu Jinhua forced a smile and said stiffly, "Well, I'm here to ask Mr. An to come down for dinner. Um...you guys can come down together. What would you like to eat? Do you need me to prepare it?"
Do I need to buy some incense and candles or something like that?
Before he could think, Lin Churan said coldly, "There's no need to prepare anything for us. The boss will be down soon." After that, he slammed the door shut.
Hu Jinhua left feeling relieved.
Hearing the noise outside the door, An Jingzhi walked over and spoke without asking Lin Churan.
His room is a suite. Usually, several ghosts can stay in the living room while he sleeps in the room.
Ever since meeting An Jingzhi, Lin Bai had often asked him questions like, Are there many ghosts in the world? Where are they all? Is there reincarnation? Is there hell? How do ghosts survive? What do they eat? Why do they become evil spirits?
The question made An Jingzhi feel overwhelmed. The other party asked him as if he was doing academic research and had prepared a notebook and pen very seriously. However, An Jingzhi became a little impatient after answering a few times.
Just tell him to ask the water ghost and the building ghost.
It’s best not to provoke Lin Churan.
When they sat down to eat, Lin Bai naturally squeezed next to the water ghost and the building ghost and began to ask questions very skillfully.
The building ghost and the water ghost were also interested at first, but later they became expressionless.
The other party talks a lot and asks many annoying questions. They don’t know a lot of things. How should they answer?
But because An Jingzhi was present, they could only answer questions that they knew the answer to.
"It's a common convention that water ghosts cannot leave the area where they died. How did you leave?"
Lin Bai started his questions again.
"I don't know, ask the boss." The water ghost was a talkative person to begin with, but he became even more speechless after being asked by Lin Bai.
Lin Bai is a kind-hearted person, and he is born with the Yin-Yang eyes that can see those things. He learned more to save people, so An Jingzhi let him go.
But he was too impatient to answer those questions, so he could only let the water ghost and the building ghost suffer.
Hu Jinhua and his wife also had a new understanding of Lin Bai. In their eyes, Lin Bai was a calm and wise man, but he seemed to have become a chatterbox in recent days. But in fact, they were also very interested in those questions. When Lin Bai asked questions, they would also prick up their ears and listen.
…
The next day, they went up the mountain.
When we arrived at the village at the foot of the mountain, we saw familiar faces and many villagers were whispering to each other.
"Why are they here again? Why are they here again?"
"He wasn't like this the last time I saw him. He was quite young. Now he looks like he's almost 50 or 60. He must be cursed."
"Let's go, let's not get close to them. What if the mountain god misunderstands that we are in cahoots with them and punishes us?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the other villagers who were still watching all ran away, and some young people who did not believe in superstition were also driven home by their elders, twisting their ears and holding sticks.
Lin Bai was helpless. "I originally thought they were exaggerating, but now I think they do have some credibility."
"Let's go. I'll take you up the mountain. I've been there several times." Lin Bai led the group up the mountain with ease.
When they were almost at the cave entrance, Lin Bai stopped and said, "Mr. An, look at me. Are you sure you want to go in?"
An Jingzhi strode forward without looking back. Lin Bai was slightly stunned, then instructed Hu Jinhua and his wife to wait where they were.
He caught up with An Jingzhi and the others in front.
After walking for about five minutes at the cave entrance, they came to an altar that was somewhat deep and cold.
There was dim light everywhere, and the statue on the altar looked very gloomy.
Before An Jingzhi came in, he thought it was some evil spirit causing trouble, but after he came here, he did not feel a trace of evil.
"It's not the evil god." He murmured with his head down.
"Boss, we feel very comfortable staying here." said the water ghost.
An Jingzhi turned around and asked the other two ghosts, "What about you?"
The two ghosts also nodded, "I always feel very comfortable being wrapped in the atmosphere here, a bit like..."
Lin Churan continued, "It's like being in my mother's belly."
An Jingzhi walked around and found that except for the tall statue in the front, there were only stone walls around him.
He approached the huge statue and looked at it carefully, and found that the statue was actually made up of many statues, and the face of the statue was not just one face.
It’s as if this statue is actually a collection.
Seeing that he was staring at the statue's face, Lin Bai reminded him, "Don't keep looking at his face!"
An Jingzhi retracted his gaze, "What's wrong?"
"Every time I look at his face, I feel like there's a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood."
That's right. If you stare at this face for too long, the picture you see will be hell, and it's natural to see mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
After identifying the appearance of those faces, An Jingzhi also understood everything. No wonder the three ghosts felt so comfortable after coming here. This is not an altar of the evil god.
This is the entrance to the Ghost Gate...
The traces of negative energy that leak out from the Ghost Gate are a great tonic for ghosts, so they will naturally feel very comfortable. The statue exists to suppress this negative energy.
Only by getting close can you feel the Yin energy. The rest of the Yin energy will be exposed to the sun and dissipated.
But because of the existence of this statue, no dark evil spirits have grown here.
The face of this statue is a mixture of the Ten Kings of Hell, the Ox-Head and the Horse-Faced Deity.
Mortals gazing at nature will become deranged and see things they shouldn't.
As for Lin Bai, Hu Xinyu and other expedition members, their lives were lost because they were exposed to the purest yin energy. This yin energy would infiltrate their vitality and cause them to die slowly.
After hearing An Jingzhi's explanation, both the three ghosts and Lin Bai were stunned.
"Is this the gate of hell?!" the water ghost screamed.
"So we can enter the underworld from here?" Lin Bai's eyes were burning with passion.
"Then can we reincarnate from here?" asked the building ghost.
The ghost girl asked, "Does hell really exist?"
"This is indeed the gate of hell, but it requires a special person to open it." And he happens to be that special person.
No wonder he said that the Ghost Gate could not be summoned no matter how hard he tried, it turned out that it had lost its function.
The cycle of reincarnation should still be in operation, otherwise those newborn babies would be like idiots without souls injected into them.
He only saw these few ghosts after going around in circles, which must be because other ghosts were automatically sucked into the six realms of reincarnation.
"You guys step back."
An Jingzhi made complicated hand seals and then shouted, "Gate of Hell, open!"
Suddenly, a black fog appeared in front of the stone statue on the altar, and finally a majestic and solemn stone gate that made people lose their minds and souls slowly evolved from the black fog. The stone gate was a hundred feet high, and there were only three words written on it.
【gate of hell】!
