Chapter 16 Bravely Entering the Netherworld Alone
The Land Temple has been repaired in Zhang Tao's hands.
At present, there is still a lack of statue of the Land God. When Miss Wang completes it, Zhang Tao’s “New Land Temple” will be officially completed.
The two old gods, the mountain god and the river god, Zhang Tao have visited them, and they have also met the hot-tempered God of Rain.
It seems that the gap between God is quite big.
I remember that the City God said that in addition to receiving incense from the mortal world, the Land God also has an important task, which is to assist the underworld and seize ghosts on the earth.
The word "ghost" just makes Zhang Tao feel uncomfortable.
It’s so great to meet a ghost. At the very least, it can’t sleep, and at the worst, it can scare neurasthenia.
Zhang Tao has been afraid of ghosts since he was a child and is afraid of listening to ghost stories. In the eyes of mortals, ghosts are filthy and ghosts are ominous things.
But now is different from the past. Zhang Tao is now promoted to a god. Not only do he not have to be afraid of ghosts, but he also wants to arrest ghosts.
The Netherworld, the King of Hell, the Ghost Guard...Fei Siliang.
The reason why Zhang Tao first visited the City God, the Mountain God, and the River God, and finally thought of the King of Hell was because he was afraid of ghosts!
Not to mention his disgusting face, Zhang Tao was frightened when he thought about it.
The main responsibility of the Land God is to shuttle underground, and the underworld is also underground. Even if Zhang Tao has one thousand or ten thousand reluctantly, he still has to see the King of Hell.
Tonight, the moon is on the high branches and the stars are shining. It is really a god-given opportunity to enter the underworld.
Zhang Tao chewed a dead grass in his mouth, weighed the pros and cons, took out the "Escape Technique" token, and fell head-on into the soil...
King of Hell in the Netherworld, my Land Lord is here!
He didn't know how deep he had been swimming underground or how long he had been swimming, and finally a light came from deep underground, and there were some slight whispers.
Could it be that this is the end of the land?
Zhang Tao passed through the soil layer and came to a large dark space underground.
He could no longer use the "Escape Art" to settle down, and this was the maximum depth that his land god could reach.
Is this the core of the underground?
There was a bright green light in front of me, and a faint resentful voice like chanting scriptures...
I've come to the underworld?
Zhang Tao felt chill and his heart trembled.
The Netherworld is where the dead come from. The evil spirit is very strong and the yin energy is lingering, which is extremely terrifying.
Well, I’ve come here. Even if I’m cut into pieces today, I, the Land Lord, will still break into this underworld!
So, Zhang Tao carefully followed the light.
Turning around an underground stone tablet and black stone, it seemed like there was an empty door with a large room inside...
"This is..." Zhang Tao's eyes widened, his face pale in fear.
I saw a group of blue ghosts, transforming into human figures, wandering on an open space.
These ghosts were unconsciously floating like catkins, looking up at the sky, making a slight whisper.
"It's a ghost!" Zhang Tao screamed in fear.
It's such a ghost. Zhang Tao saw a real ghost for the first time!
The so-called lonely ghost is so enchanting.
"I am God, I am God..." Zhang Tao kept cheering himself up.
It seems that this is the underworld, why does it look so messy?
Apart from ghosts, there is no breath of the underworld.
At this moment, two tall figures rushed over, and wherever they went, ghosts scattered and collapsed.
"Go away! I'll ask you to catch you to the gate of hell!" The bull-headed ghost roared with fangs.
"I'm almost dead, I'm still so attached to the world, my soul will never fade away!" The horse-faced ghost messenger raised his long face and kicked the lonely soul beside him away.
The ghost messenger appeared with a cow head and horse face, with several ghosts mixed under his armpits, some locked with iron chains, and some nailed with iron nails, looking very terrible.
The captured ghost kept howling in pain.
"Is this the legendary bull head and horse face that specializes in catching ghosts?" Zhang Tao thought to himself.
It seems that this is the underworld, and there is no mistake in the place.
Zhang Tao originally wanted to come forward to reveal his identity and say hello to Niu Tou and Horse Face. He was not familiar with the place here and could not find the direction at all.
But when I saw the bullhead and horse face looked grim and the pace was rushing, and I seemed to be in a hurry to go on the road. For a moment, I felt embarrassed to come forward and say hello.
Soon, the bull head and horse face passed through the Ghost Square and whistled all the way.
Zhang Tao thought to himself that if the bullhead and horse face caught these ghosts, he must have gone to find the King of Hell. As long as I follow them, I can find the gate to the underworld.
It was just that the wandering ghosts in front of him were like aunts dancing square dances, which made Zhang Tao feel trembling.
"I am a god now. I have magical skills to protect my body... I am not afraid, not afraid..." Zhang Tao kept cheering himself up.
These are just souls, not real ghosts, rush over!
Zhang Tao made up his mind, took a deep breath, used a set of "golden light in the earth" to instantly transfer the magic to travel through this group of ghosts.
Countless ghosts moved towards Zhang Tao, but were bounced away by Zhang Tao, like balloons, tilting around.
Zhang Tao narrowed his eyes, just looking at the road ahead without looking sideways.
I don’t know how long it took and how many miles it took, but the ghosts suddenly became much less.
Zhang Tao was much more open, so he put away the "golden light of the ground" and slowly walked onto the flat ground.
It was surprisingly quiet here, and in the dark, it seemed that there was a terrifying aura rushing here.
"Hey, there is a door here..." Zhang Tao stretched out his neck and saw a door ahead.
This is a painted black archway-shaped gate with the main door protruding, the two small doors on the left and right are closed, and a lantern is hung on each.
A fiery red flame burned inside the lantern.
This door has nine steps, and a thin layer of smoke is shrouded above the steps, which can only be discovered by approaching.
If you didn't raise your foot to try in person, you wouldn't see the height of the steps clearly.
This door seems to be a dividing line, and behind the door, there is an unfathomable mystery.
Could it be that the two ghost messengers, Niu Tou and Horse Face, just now, entered this door?
Zhang Tao hesitated and looked up, and was shocked.
On the plaque of the main door, there were scarlet words like "Gate of Hell" written on it!
The Gate of Ghost is known as the entrance to the underworld. The souls of a person after his death will all enter the underworld from here.
Huangquan Road, Wangxiangtai, Three Lives Stone, Forget River, Forget River... Enter the six paths of reincarnation again.
Once a ghost enters the gates of hell, there is no way back, and it only enters and leaves here.
That... these souls outside the gates of hell...
Zhang Tao suddenly realized that the ghosts just now were people who were about to die. They were either suffering from serious illnesses, dying, or vegetatives, etc. In short, they were the souls of some people who were on the verge of death.
Life is coming soon, and I will soon die. I wander outside the gate of hell and enter the gate of hell at any time.
The bull head and horse face are the souls that capture dead people, and these souls that are dying people are not yet concerned about for the time being.
These dying souls are pulled by the Ghost Gate, and most of the ghosts will eventually step into this place.
There may be a small number of people who can escape from heaven, resurrect from the dead, and regain their vitality.
In general, the farther away from the gates of hell, the safer it is.
"It seems that after finding the entrance to the Netherworld, I will meet the King of Hell inside for a while!" Zhang Tao was not as scared as before.
On the one hand, he is a god who can travel through the underworld in a living body. On the other hand, he also thinks that ghosts are nothing more than that. They look scary and will not hurt people in fact.
What is the scenery inside the Gate of Ghost?
Zhang Tao stepped on the stairs shrouded in rain and mist and decided to find out...
