Chapter 142 He Needs Her Guidance
Mid-July.
The Ghost Festival in folk legends is the most lively festival in the underworld.
This is the only day they can leave the ghost realm and go to the human world.
Human sacrifices, with cattle, sheep, melons and fruits placed on display.
They are all things for their entertainment.
But they are also bound by the laws of nature and cannot kill innocent people at will. But if people break the laws on their own, then they cannot be blamed for the consequences.
Bai Xiaoxiao sat in a sedan chair with glass beads hanging on it, carried by several paper ghost messengers, and wandered above the night sky. Although it was pitch black, she could still see the wild mountains and wilderness clearly. The messy branches and leaves were tilted in all directions, like the claws of ghosts in a carnival.
"Hahahaha, I really don't know which unlucky people will be deceived this year."
"I still remember last year I scammed an old man. He was so scared that he almost peed his pants."
"I don't want to scare anyone. I just want to enjoy the offerings and the scenery. Of course, it would be best if I could find two or three handsome young men to accompany me. Hehehe~"
Bai Xiaoxiao listened to the noisy conversations of the ghosts following behind her. She felt calm but also a little strangely curious and happy. She could clearly sense the unique emotion that did not originally belong to her, but now it could just cover up the tension of being surrounded by a group of ghosts.
Finally, they stopped on a high mountain.
At a glance, you can see all the layouts of the world.
"Go ahead and have some fun."
Bai Xiaoxiao didn't know what to say, so her mouth opened and closed automatically.
"Yes. Oni-sama!"
The clustered ghosts scattered.
The eerie sound of "hehehe" laughter drifted in the night.
Bai Xiaoxiao had no expression on her face and wiped away her goosebumps very calmly.
"Your Highness Ghost Princess."
A handsome man suddenly rushed in front of her, holding a white duster, with red lips and a pale face, and smiling with curved eyebrows.
He looks like Bai Wuchang, but he is not.
She had seen Bai Wuchang, a grumpy old man.
"What's wrong?"
Bai Xiaoxiao modestly lifted the curtain and asked the smiling ghost while looking at him.
The Smiling Ghost still smiled: "Don't forget what His Majesty the King of Hell told you."
Bai Xiaoxiao frowned slightly.
Of course, he remembered what Hades had told her. The most favored 'Ghost Princess' would always obey, but she herself...
"Is there anything wrong, Your Highness?"
The Smiling Ghost waited for a while, and seeing the girl was silent, he looked a little puzzled.
"Your Highness understands."
Bai Xiaoxiao loosened her fingers, and the curtain dropped, separating them. Seeing this, the Smiling Ghost could say nothing more, so he could only bow slightly to Ruan Jiao, step back half a step, and wait quietly.
She waved her fingertips, and instantly a small paper figurine floated up from behind, dragging Kui Ming over. Over a dozen chains bound him like a silkworm cocoon, and a black cloth blindfolded him, restricting his movements. Bai Xiaoxiao watched, and was inexplicably reminded of the ancient animal trainers who, to restrain ferocious beasts, would use brutal methods to subdue them, then tame them bit by bit.
And now Kuiming,
It looks like a ferocious and unruly beast in its earliest stages.
Bai Xiaoxiao breathed silently, "Let's go."
The red sedan chair carrying the soft and delicate paper figure floated in the air with a tap of the toes, and the smiling ghost followed behind, pulling the iron chain that bound Kui Ming.
They passed over the realm of the living.
Push aside the dark and thick clouds.
A bottomless abyss suddenly appeared before his eyes.
Bai Xiaoxiao lifted the gauze curtain and glanced at the eerie ghost pit. Her heart couldn't help but tremble. Instinctively afraid, she lowered the pearl curtain to block her view. She took two deep breaths to calm herself, then called the Smiling Ghost over and asked, "What's down there?"
The Smiling Ghost shook his head hesitantly, "I don't know, but..." He glanced at Kui Ming and leaned close to Her Highness Ghost Princess's ear, lowering his voice so only the two of them could hear, "But I heard this is a restricted area. Not only the Underworld, but even some cultivators and demons don't dare to approach here casually."
"Why don't you let him go down quickly!"
Bai Xiaoxiao subconsciously wanted to say, "Then let him come", but the first thing she said was "Let him go down quickly". She turned her eyes away silently, holding her chin and covering her mouth.
"yes."
The Smiling Ghost dragged the iron chain to the edge of the abyss. The eerie aura from below shocked him so much that he couldn't help but take a step back. The smile on his face changed, but then he returned to normal and untied the black cloth covering Kui Ming's eyes: "There are things at the bottom of the pit that are related to the comfort of the underworld. Now I need you to get them."
Kui Ming looked at him quietly, as if waiting for the next words.
But the Smiling Ghost stopped there and just looked at him with a smile without saying anything else.
Kui Ming knew that there would be no more extra information for him, so he lowered his head and blinked his eyelashes, then raised his eyes to look at the soft and pretty girl beside him.
"Her Highness Ghost Princess thinks the same."
The Smiling Ghost thought Kuiming was seeking some kind of "shelter".
But Bai Xiaoxiao could tell that he was asking, he was asking her whether she needed to go down.
Bai Xiaoxiao opened her mouth and then closed it again.
Not receiving any 'instructions', Kui Ming looked at the Smiling Ghost in confusion. However, the Smiling Ghost had already untied the iron chains and half-pushed him to the edge of the abyss: "Just go down directly."
The cold wind blew his hair.
Kui Ming looked down into the abyss. He could not see anything in the pitch-black pit, but his instinct told him that there was nothing good underneath. He ignored the Smiling Ghost's constant urging and just raised his eyes to glance at the beautiful figure sitting in the bright red soft dress.
Do you need to go down?
He wanted to wait for her words.
The Smiling Ghost seemed to have noticed it as well. He walked up to Yan Hongruanjiao and bowed respectfully. "Your Highness, this boy is stubborn and won't listen to orders. Why don't you give it a try? Perhaps he'll listen to you."
Bai Xiaoxiao sat upright in the sedan chair, her hands on her knees, her face expressionless and her mouth tightly closed.
"Her Highness Ghost Princess? Her Highness Ghost Princess?"
[It's so noisy, can you please stop nagging? ]
Bai Xiaoxiao frowned impatiently.
Suddenly, a gust of wind came to my ears.
No one expected Kui Ming's sudden attack. He hooked the Smiling Ghost's neck with his five fingers like sharp claws and twisted it outwards. The crisp sound of broken bones suddenly rang out. Bai Xiaoxiao slowly came to her senses and saw Kui Ming holding the Smiling Ghost's limp body, standing there with an indifferent expression.
Heh.
Bai Xiaoxiao smiled subtly.
The paper figures carrying her were startled by Kui Ming's sudden abnormality. They trembled, causing Bai Xiaoxiao to stagger around.
"Why are you shaking? Keep steady for me, Your Highness."
She shouted, causing Kui Ming to slowly shift his gaze to stare at the paper figures.
The paper people immediately became obedient and stopped moving.
She slowly stretched out her hand and made a gesture towards Kui Ming.
Kui Ming tilted his head to take a look, then raised his palm to hold the fingertips offered by the little girl, and helped her step down from the sedan chair little by little.
