Volume Four, Volume 13, Chapter 64, The Secret of the Family
At this time, Xuanyin only felt that her stomach was extremely uncomfortable.
But... she finally stopped vomiting.
One thing that she minded was that in her psychic sense, the ghosts who intended to approach her began to gradually leave.
Will ghosts... fear the medium?
The fact is that ghosts are often attracted by the medium. Ghosts will be afraid of them. They should be ghost messengers and demon hunters.
However, anyway, this is a good thing for Aoyin.
She then lay on the ghost ship like this, allowing the ship to slowly row.
but……
Then she suddenly opened her eyes!
Because she saw a guju bird parked at the bow of the ghost ship!
This is the third time that Xuanyin has seen the Guhuo Bird. This is no longer as creepy as the previous times. However, Xuanyin realized that the existence of the Guhuo Bird means that the disaster is coming.
At this time, she suddenly heard some strange sounds. Then, she looked down.
Then... she saw a terrifying scene.
That was... some vomit she had vomited out at the end. And in the darkness, she barely identified it, and it seemed to be something...
"Meat"?
However, since she stepped onto Minshan, she has eaten very vegetarian food and has almost never been infected with meat.
However, the vomit...or "meat" is squirming, like a living creature!
"This...what is this?"
However, when her eyes moved to the bow of the boat again, she found that the gukka bird was gone.
The flesh she vomited out of was actually gradually expanding during the squirming process!
Why... no, what should be said to be?
Then... the wriggling piece of meat began to form some strange shape.
The shape...the outline...is very familiar.
Unlike the Night King, Aoyin will be affected by darkness. However, as a psychic, she can still replace vision through perception.
The flesh... in just a moment... actually formed a human face!
The human face was opening its "eyes" and "mouth", revealing an extremely strange image!
And those eyes... showed a terrifying resentment!
A twisted face was forming on the piece of meat, and then, as the piece of meat continued to expand, something similar to limbs began to grow!
Then, the face stared at Xuanyin and his mouth began to open, as if he was about to say something...
"Swoosh"!
A black shadow swooped down, and then swallowed the piece of meat in one bite!
Guhun bird!
The Guhuo Bird actually swallowed the piece of meat!
No... it shouldn't be said to be swallowing, because next, Xuanyin saw that the Guhuo bird flew in front of her, chewing the comparable piece of meat! The Guhuo bird's face was originally similar to a human, so this scene seemed extremely strange.
Meat……
When did you eat that meat?
Her father's death caused Aoyin's memory to be split, and she could not remember many things clearly.
When did she...eat that "meat"?
While the Guhuo Bird chewed the piece of meat, his eyes were always staring at Xuanyin!
This feeling made Aoyin feel creepy.
When staring at Guhuobi's eyes, Xuanyin even felt in a daze. Only Guhuobi's eyes remained in her sight!
I don’t know how long it has been, but a sound suddenly came from my trance consciousness!
"Can you hear it? Xiahou Xuanyin?"
In a trance, she thought for a long time before she remembered who the owner of this voice was.
Xiahou Night King!
"Night...Night King?"
At this moment... On the ghost ship of the Xiahou family, the Night King was pressing his hand on Xu Qinghe's shoulder. At this moment, Xu Qinghe fell into an unconscious state, and she became a bridge of communication between the Night King and Xuanyin.
"Listen to what I said next. After excluding the difficult parts, you should have perfectly 'digested' the meat. This is enough to allow you to reach the underworld on the other side of the Yellow Spring, Fengdu City!"
"Meat? You...you know? What is that meat?"
"Of course, almost everyone in the clan of the Xiahou family knows that one of the huge advantages of eating that 'meat' is that it can make ghosts regard us as dead, not living. Of course, this is time-limited. However, this is not the only advantage of 'meat'. But unfortunately... a ghost mess like ox head and horse face cannot be deceived."
"After all... why do people from your family smuggle to the underworld and step onto the Naihe Bridge? Just simply to bring the dead back to the living?"
The Night King had known for a long time that Xuanyin would raise this question.
It is indeed difficult for ordinary people to understand this.
"All ordinary people die." The Night King suddenly said these six words: "The lines in a Western novel that I like very much."
"Yes...I know..."
"As long as it is an ordinary body, no one can resist death. Because this is the law of heaven and earth, birth, old age, sickness and death are the way of heaven. If you want to forcefully reverse, you can only choose to practice Taoism and become an immortal. In "Journey to the West", Sun Wukong was appointed as a master of Bodhi Patriarch for his longevity, so as to cultivate the body of an immortal, and even write off his name in the Book of Life and Death, which is the best example."
"Isn't the story of Journey to the West... not fiction?"
"Most of the plots are definitely fictional, and Xuanzang will definitely not have three disciples protecting him when he travels west. However, the description of the underworld has a certain degree of authenticity. But it is difficult to truly seek immortality like Sun Wukong. The Xiahou family has a long history, and whether it is a clan or a division, they have been cultivators from generation to generation, except for exceptions like yours... But to this day, even a earth immortal has never been born. Even if it is an earth immortal, it has never survived the ascension disaster, and it is impossible to live with the heaven and earth."
The Night King knew the history of the Xiahou family as well as the family.
"As long as you don't pass the tribulation and ascend to the Immortal Class, your name will always be recorded in the Book of Life and Death. Once your life is here, the ghosts will be detained. No matter how heroic you are in your lifetime, you will not be able to escape the ending of being detained by a ghost messenger into the underworld. Once the cultivators in the family cannot survive the tribulation, they will have to die in the tribulation, and they will not even have the qualification to enter the cycle of reincarnation. This is the price of trying to go against the sky."
Human beings are always like this. Even though they know that it is an act that goes against the will of heaven, they still do it for their own purposes.
However... all mortals die. As mortals, this is an invariable fate.
"As the saying goes, one person can attain the Tao, and the chickens and dogs will ascend. If someone in the family can survive the ascension catastrophe, then the fate of the entire family will be completely changed, the Xiahou family will no longer be ordinary, and their bloodlines will also be completely changed. However... for countless years, generations of geniuses have only fallen on the road to practicing Taoism. So... Finally one day, the people of the Xiahou family made a decision..."
"A decision that is destined to be punished by heaven..." r1152
