Chapter 5(2/2)
Grandma Xu saw that I was very well-behaved and seemed quite satisfied, so she gave a thumbs up.
Then he said: "Now, lie down and sleep, I will take you down."
I obeyed and kept telling myself that as long as I could get rid of Han Jiuchen and return to a peaceful life, I would go through mountains of swords and seas of fire!
Grandma Xu gathered around the table and started dancing. Because I closed my eyes, I didn’t know what she was doing. I could only hear her mumbling, chanting and singing. After a while, I actually fell asleep.
When I woke up, I was on a dark mountain road, surrounded by mountains on three sides. There was only one road with no end in sight. It was like a confined space, eerie and terrifying.
At this time, Granny Xu's voice came from above. She asked me to keep walking along this mountain path until I saw the Yin Temple.
I raised my head and could see nothing but the dark sky.
I suddenly had the feeling that Sun Wukong had fallen into the palm of Tathagata Buddha.
Is this…the Netherworld?
The mountain road was eerie and silent, with a gloomy wind blowing, followed by thick night fog.
I held the talisman that Grandma Xu gave me in my hand, and walked forward in small steps without courage.
When I walked across a suspension bridge, I saw a group of people wandering back and forth on the mountain road. They were all haggard and inhuman.
They seemed to have no thoughts and consciousness, walking around blindly.
"Xu, Granny Xu! What is going on...?" I was so frightened that my face turned pale, I stuttered, and subconsciously I wanted to run back.
"Don't retreat!" Granny Xu's voice came again, "Don't worry, they are just wandering souls. As long as you hold the talisman, they can't see you. I have alarmed the Yinshen for you. At this point, we are all
out on a limb."
After hearing what she said, I had no choice but to bite the bullet and keep walking forward.
I trembled as I shuttled between these wandering souls, sweating profusely, but not even daring to take a breath.
I don’t know how long I’ve been walking, but I haven’t even seen a shadow of the Yin Temple that Granny Xu mentioned.
I was getting more and more confused and wanted to try to contact Granny Xu. Just as I was about to speak, I heard Gu Ting exclaim: "Be careful!"
What followed was a cat meow, and then I heard Granny Xu's scream.
I panicked for a moment and shouted to a higher place: "Gu Ting! Granny Xu! What's wrong with you? What happened?"
