Chapter 4 Wangxiang Terrace sinks red butterfly

China is a civilization that emphasizes symmetry. There is yin and yang, there is life and death. There is naturally a world of the world and there is naturally a world of the world.

Since ancient times, stories of ghosts scaring living people in the world have been common, but in fact, adventures of living people traveling in the dark are not uncommon.

In addition to those who are capable, ordinary people also go to the underworld by chance.

The underworld is very large, much larger than the earth, which also leads to different opinions on the scenic terrain of the underworld. In fact, no one is wrong, but the places where they pass are different.

Some people unfortunately break into places where strangers cannot go. At the very least, their souls are detained, their bodies become crazy or vegetative, and at worst, they report in advance and die immediately.

This was my first time in the dark. I didn’t know where I was, but later I realized that it was the second half of the road on earth.

This is a flat dirt road. On one side is a wasteland that is beyond the limit, and on the other side is a barren mountain where no grass grows. There is no sun in the sky, and everything is gray and dark.

On the road, I was not only me, but also pedestrians coming and going. They were dressed in modern people's clothes, coming and going.

Most of the people who went in the same direction as me were escorted by two ancient soldiers, with chains wrapped around them.

If someone is unwilling to move forward, the soldiers beside him will hit them with the mourning stick in their hands. When the mourning stick hits the body, black air will appear and it will hurt.

Some of the soldiers passing by would look at me, but they just looked at me and ignored me at all.

I remembered my aunt's words and walked forward.

I don’t know how far I walked, but just when I felt that the road had no end, the scenery in front of me changed.

The scenery on both sides is as usual, but there are a lot of weeds.

These weeds grow lushly, but they are not green, but gray. They will give people a sense of desolation when they look at them. There is also a huge stone tablet on the side of the road.

There are three large characters written on the stone tablet, Huangquan Road, and there are several lines of small characters under the big characters.

The great way is inaction, the pure and true nature, and the sentient beings in the six realms are all caused by false deception. They create karma in destiny, good and evil are divided, and the cause and effect are unhappy, and the slightest bit of clarity is clear. Only when the thoughts move, the karma is in shape. Even if people do not see it, gods and ghosts will be enlightened early. Do not say that they are in the dark room, and the consequences are difficult to escape.

It turns out that this is the famous Huangquan Road. I rarely heard of these magical things in the past, let alone saw them with my own eyes. However, now looking at the surrounding scenery, I don’t know why I feel a sense of familiarity.

There is also a high platform not far away, not far from the main road. When I stand here, I can see the big characters on it, Wangxiangtai!

Most of the ghosts who came to the stone tablet chose to go to Wangxiangtai. Of course, some returned from Wangxiangtai. Most of these ghosts looked sad and cried.

My aunt told me to keep moving forward, but I felt that Wangxiangtai was very attractive to me.

It is also considered a trip for a living person to come to the underworld. I thought so at that time, so I walked over there by chance.

The ghosts who came and went were a little curious to see me walking there alone, because the ghosts who were going back and forth on this road were all escorted.

Some of the soldiers would look at me, but they didn't say anything.

If no one talks to me, I will naturally not provoke them. Those are all ghosts!

Wangxiangtai looked close, but it made people feel like they were running to death on the mountain. I kept walking, and as the platform got closer, I couldn't get there. Later I realized that although I was a soul body, I was still a living person in essence, and I couldn't get there.

Just as I was thinking about whether to return the same way, one hand rested on my shoulder.

I subconsciously turned around and saw a woman in a black and red dress standing behind me.

This woman is very beautiful, and Xiaobai is also very beautiful, but the two of them have different beauty methods. Xiaobai gives people a fairy-like and quirky feeling, while this woman is heroic, which is very cool in today's terms.

You know me? I didn't think much about it at that time and asked like this.

The woman stared at me for a long time, and suddenly laughed, not knowing each other.

I was speechless in an instant, and I didn't recognize you, why are you patting me on the shoulder?

The woman seemed to see what I was thinking and said, "I think you are a living person, you are a little curious, what are you doing here?"

I almost blurted out that I was here to find a substitute, but then I thought about why I told her, so I said that I had come over by chance.

The woman raised her eyebrows and said, "Let's meet me." My name is Chen Hongdie."

This name sounds pretty good, I thought to myself, and stretched out my hand, Qin Wuyi.

To this day, I can still remember the surprise on Chen Hongdie's face at that time. She looked at my outstretched hand and felt a little at a loss.

I also felt very embarrassed. It was not right to put one hand there and retract it, nor was it right to not retract it.

Finally, my arm was sore and I had to withdraw my hand. Then I realized that she had to die for many years. I didn’t know that modern etiquette was understandable.

"Qin Wuyi, do you want to go to Wangxiangtai?" she asked me.

I nodded, "When I passed by, I felt something attracted me."

After saying that, I suddenly realized that the strange feeling was gone, and I suddenly lost the interest in going to see it.

"I'll take you there." Chen Hongdie said that, holding my hand and taking a step forward, but this step we arrived at the bottom of Wangxiangtai.

The deafening cry made my eardrums hurt, and the sadness and reluctance contained in the crying could be felt by anyone alone.

Chen Hongdie seemed to be unable to hear the crying, and pulled me to the top of the Wangxiang platform with a smile on his face.

In fact, when we came here, the soldiers patrolling around us noticed us and were all moving towards us. We were stopped before we even stepped on the steps.

Chen Hongdie kept walking and stretched out her hand from her sleeve. She seemed to be holding something in her hand, but I didn't see clearly.

When the patrol soldiers saw this thing, they retreated aside, and a very obscure look of fear appeared on their faces.

I felt deeply curious in an instant. These are all ghost soldiers. How could I be afraid of her as a ghost?

While taking the stage, Chen Hongdie told me that there was no Wangxiangtai in the underworld. Later, Emperor Yan Luo felt that the newly-dead people were homesick and were still crying when they arrived in Fengdu City, and they were also very upset. So they asked the ghosts to build this Wangxiangtai, so they let the ghosts look at the world and their relatives for the last time.

You know a lot, I thought to myself.

When I came to Wangxiangtai, I realized what the world is. The ghosts looked ahead, crying or laughing, but I looked forward but couldn't see anything.

Chen Hongdie seemed to see what I was thinking, saying that you are a living person, of course you can't see anything.

I suddenly realized, then what am I doing here!
