Chapter 22 Underworld

After this battle, Chen Shi was sleepy and tired, so he took a nap in the car. When he woke up, the wooden car had arrived at Huangpo Village.
Grandpa boiled the medicine and was busy back and forth. It was late at night before the medicine was ready.
Chen Shi drank a pot of medicine, soaked in the medicine vat, and gradually fell asleep in the medicine vat.
Fortunately, the night was uneventful and his old illness did not relapse.
"Have I been cured of my illness?"
When he woke up in the morning, Chen Shi was very happy. He felt that the breakfast made by his grandfather was not that bad.
Moreover, his grandfather did not break his promise when he went to the county town this time. He indeed brought him delicious food from the county town, including candied haws, glutinous rice cakes, stinky tofu, and candy figures, which made him smile from ear to ear.
"Grandpa's medicine is useful, and it's also useful if I practice Sanguang Zhengqi every day. Maybe it can cure my disease!"
Chen Shi looked forward to his future life, so he worked harder and harder. After becoming his godmother, he practiced the Three Lights Righteousness Technique and used the Big Dipper to temper his body.
The day was very fulfilling. At night, Chen Shi drank medicine and took a medicinal bath. He practiced the Three Lights Righteousness Technique for a while before lying down to sleep.
He slept for an unknown length of time. When he was enjoying his sleep, he suddenly felt an intense pain in his heart and his heart twitched violently!
When Chen Shi woke up, he knew that his old heart problem had recurred. He struggled on the bed and tried to get up and activate the Sanguang Zhengqi Jue to resist.
However, the pain was so severe that it drained him of all his strength. His heart seemed to be crushed into a ball, causing the blood in his body to stop flowing!
He wanted to breathe, but couldn't.
The air in the lungs seemed to have been emptied by the blue ghost hands!
"Grandpa! Grandpa!"
Chen Shi was surrounded by great panic. He opened his mouth to call his grandfather, but no sound came out of his throat.
It was still night, so Grandpa probably wasn't at home, so he wouldn't have noticed that he was in danger.
"Black pot! Black pot!"
Chen Shi wanted to call the black pot, but he still couldn't make a sound. The big black dog in the yard seemed to hear something, raised his head, listened carefully, shook his head and fell asleep again.
Chen Shi's eyes gradually turned dark, so dark that he couldn't see the moonlight outside, and so dark that he couldn't even see the beams.
His eyelids became heavier and heavier, his mind became more and more dizzy, and his body twitched uncontrollably, like a fish that was fished out to death.
His body jumped violently on the bed twice, and finally calmed down. His limbs twitched from time to time, but the frequency of the twitches became slower and slower, and the amplitude became smaller and smaller.
Finally, Chen Shi became quiet.
There seemed to be a bright light in the darkness, illuminating the darkness in front of Chen Shi.
He opened his eyes and was surrounded by heavy mist. From time to time, miserable howls could be heard in the distance, resembling humans and injured beasts.
Chen Shi widened his eyes and looked around hard, but couldn't see anything.
"Grandpa!" he shouted loudly.
"Grandpa!" "Grandpa!"
There were many sounds coming from the mist, from all directions and corners, calling for grandpa. I don't know if it was an echo or something weird.
Chen Shi was surrounded by fear. He knew that he should stay where he was and wait for his grandfather to find him, but he couldn't help but take steps forward.
He only felt that his body had become lighter than ever before, as light as if it didn't exist. The mist was like grains of snow-white, fine and weightless sand, passing through his body, feeling cold and cold.
"I'm probably dead." Chen Shi thought sadly.
There was the sound of footsteps in the mist, and he followed the sound and saw another figure, a young woman with a pale complexion walking towards her in despair.
Her neck was dripping with blood, and as she walked, blood poured out from a gap in her neck, staining her clothes red.
She opened her mouth, as if speaking, but Chen Shi couldn't hear anything.
The woman lowered her head sadly, but her head fell down and fell to the ground.
The woman squatted on the ground and groped around with her hands, but she still couldn't find her head.
A woman's helpless cry came from the mist.
After a while, she found her head, held it up and put it on her neck. She came silently behind Chen Shi and walked slowly.
Another person walked through the mist. He was a man with a big belly. He looked like a powerful person. He was wearing gold and silver and had a commanding air. However, at this moment, he looked quite down and out. He had been stabbed countless times.
The wound was still bleeding.
Especially the abdomen, full of fat intestines flowed out and dragged on the ground.
He struggled to hold up his intestines with both hands and followed Chen Shi.
Chen Shi walked forward in a daze and met more people in the mist. Each of them died in his own way. Some were missing arms and legs, some had a big hole in their head, and some had a burst heart and liver.
Some were bleeding from pus, some were blown up until only half of their body was left, and some were burned into cokes...
Chen Shi was not afraid. He had seen many ghosts and gods and was no longer afraid.
"I must be dead."
He felt a little sad, "I was in so much pain in bed that Grandpa didn't notice, and neither did the scapegoat. They might be very sad when they find out I'm dead the next day."
I don’t know what my face looks like. If it’s too hideous, grandpa will cry.
He didn't want grandpa to cry.
There is a long queue in front of you, with no end as far as the eye can see. How many people are walking mechanically in the mist, not knowing where they are going.
Chen Shi walked forward with the weird people behind him to get along with the team.
They continued to move forward, and more people joined the larger group.
There were many more people in front of and behind Chen Shi. They were the other two teams. The people were walking like zombies, and they could not be seen to the end.
Ahead, more teams appeared, and there was a crowd of people. The strange thing was that even though there were so many people, they didn't make any sound.
Only in the mist, miserable howls could be heard from time to time.
Suddenly, a huge claw protruded from the mist. It was skinny and covered with scales, not like a human hand. It grabbed a person and then retracted into the mist, and then there was the sound of chewing in the mist.
"Hehehehe!"
Something laughed in the mist.
Chen Shi was afraid, but the people around him turned a blind eye and continued to move forward numbly.
At this time, more claws poked out of the mist, grabbed a person and retracted into the mist, and the sound of chewing and laughter came from all directions.
They seemed to have walked into a feast held by gluttons in the mist, except that they were the delicacies at the feast, and the monsters hidden in the mist were gourmets, tasting rare delicacies!
Chen Shi didn't dare to move forward, but his legs seemed to not listen to him and were still moving forward mechanically.
In the surrounding mist, more and more "gourmets" came to taste the delicacies, and there were more and more laughter. More claws stretched out, grabbing people who didn't know how to resist and shrinking back into the mist.
Chen Shi's scalp was numb, and he saw a big craggy hand grabbing at him. He wanted to avoid it, but his body still moved forward mechanically, and he couldn't avoid it at all!
Just as he was about to be caught by that big hand, suddenly a thumping sound came, like a drum or a broken gong. The sound was dull and rustling, but he retracted the paw in shock.
"Chen Shi——"
There was a call from behind him, accompanied by the sound of drums.
There was also a subtle scent of incense introduced into Chen Shi's nose, but it was also vaguely present.
"Xiao Shi——"
He heard this call more clearly, it was his grandfather's voice, and the sound of gongs and drums became clearer.
"Grandpa!" He burst into tears.
Grandpa's voice came: "Xiao Shi, follow the voice!"
Chen Shi tried his best to stop, turned around with difficulty, and walked following the sound. Every step was extremely difficult, like stepping on a mountain of knives, like walking through a sea of ​​fire, and there was a bone-piercing and flesh-scratching sensation from his legs.
pain.
He trudged forward listening to the sound, but the sound was intermittent, and could only reach his ears if it was accompanied by the sound of drums and the smell of incense. If the smell of incense or the sound of drums stopped, he would lose his direction.
Surrounded by people surging around, Chen Shi was the only one who was walking in the wrong direction and was knocked around and stumbled.
He had been gone for an unknown amount of time, but he still hadn't left this gluttonous feast. There were people grabbing him everywhere, and he might be taken away at any time.
Seeing that he was about to bear it no longer, the mist suddenly parted, and in the mist there was a huge creature snorting fireworks, stepping on the ground, making the ground tremble, charging all the way towards this side.
When the behemoth came up to him, Chen Shi realized that it was a black dog. It looked like a black pot, but it was countless times bigger and looked like a hill.
"The black pot, is it you?"
The black dog was like a demon from the underworld, ferocious and ferocious, its eyes blazing with fire, burning each of the craggy hands it grabbed. With a snap, its sharp teeth bit off one of the big hands. Then its nose twitched, sniffing the scent of incense and fire.
His burning eyes quickly turned, and his gaze fell on Chen Shi.
"Hoo ho!"
The black pot, which was as big as a hill, was so excited that it swept its tail wildly and stirred up strong winds. It crawled down and let Chen Shi climb on top of it, then turned around and ran away.
"Boom!"
The sound of gongs and drums became louder and louder, and Grandpa's call became clearer and clearer. Chen Shi lay on the back of Heiguo, clutching the black dog's hair tightly in his hand. Suddenly, his eyes became brighter and brighter, blindingly bright.
He raised his hand to block the dazzling light, and then a joyful voice came: "Wake up, Xiao Shi is finally awake!"
Chen Shi opened his eyes, gradually adapted to the light, and looked around confusedly, only to see that he was in a strange and dark room. The air was filled with a strong smell of incense, and the walls were blackened.
An old woman with tangled white hair sat in the corner, holding something like a gong in her hand. When she tapped it lightly, it made a sound like a gong and a drum, and there was also a rustling sound.
There is also a large brazier on the ground. There are paper charms burning in the brazier. The flame is very high, as high as a person.
Behind the flames squatted a big black dog, its eyes were illuminated by the flames like firelight, and when it sprayed from its nostrils, it was the smoke of fireworks, which was the black pot.
Grandpa was sitting on the other side of the brazier, with a blend of water and fire floating above his head.
"What is this place?" Chen Shi wondered.
Chapter completed!
