Chapter 433 Po Meng
Chapter 433 Po Meng
The gate to the underworld opened, and Song Yun entered the underworld as a living person.
The moment he entered, Qin Yun sensed his presence.
Qin Yun smiled calmly: "Our son of great calamity is here."
"Qin Zheng has issued an order that all underworld spirits above the fourth rank are not allowed to attack Song Yun."
Qin Yun's subordinate Qin Zheng bowed and said, "Yes, Lord Ghost Emperor."
After Qin Zheng left, Qin Yun sat alone in the Ghost Emperor Hall, looking into the distance and muttering, "Song Yun, how far can you, a man of great luck, go in the end?"
......
Although Qin Yun had issued an order in his capacity as the Eastern Ghost Emperor that no gods above the fourth rank were allowed to attack Song Yun, the ghost soldiers and generals raised by the underworld were no pushovers.
Even though Song Yun concealed the breath of living people from the beginning, he was eventually discovered by the ghost soldiers of the underworld.
It's not that Song Yun was unable to defeat the ghost soldiers and generals, but being in the underworld, Song Yun did not dare to fight and fled all the way to the ghost city of Fengdu.
In Fengdu Ghost City, there are many ghosts who died unjustly but whose life span has not yet ended, as well as ghost cultivators who practice the way of ghosts and some retired ghost officials who live here in their old age.
In short, Fengdu Ghost City is a mixed bag of people. After Song Yun escaped into Fengdu Ghost City, he mixed in with the ghosts.
For a while, the evil soldiers and generals could not find any trace of him.
Just as Song Yun was running around in the ghost market in Fengdu Ghost City, an old woman called him.
"Young man, you shouldn't have come to the underworld."
Song Yun frowned after hearing this, looked around vigilantly and asked, "What do you mean, grandma?"
The old woman's wrinkled face showed a hint of smile: "You are a person from the world of the living."
For a moment, Song Yun showed a hint of murderous intent towards the old woman, but finally stopped.
The old woman chuckled and said, "Young man, you want to kill me? Forget it. You are no match for me."
Song Yun whispered, "What does grandma want?"
The old woman put away the sundries on the stall and said softly, "Follow me."
Looking at the old woman leaving, Song Yun thought for a long time and decided to ignore her.
But just as he was about to leave, a great chill filled his heart.
The old woman stopped and stared at Song Yun and said, "Young man, hurry up and catch up."
Song Yun was shocked and had to leave with the old woman. The two of them went to a secluded path, and after walking for half an hour, they came to a quiet courtyard.
Song Yun looked around and said, "Grandma, is this your residence? It's really remote."
The old woman replied in an old voice: "I am old, and I like to live where there are few ghosts."
"Young man, you came to the underworld to look for someone, right?"
Song Yun cupped his hands and said, "To be honest, grandma, I came to the underworld this time to find the soul of my beloved."
The old woman shook her head slightly: "You forced your way into the underworld and took away the souls of the dead without permission. This is a serious crime."
Song Yun said calmly: "Qingqing is the love of my life. At worst, I can trade my last life for another."
"Grandma, I can't see you clearly. I guess you are not an ordinary ghost, otherwise you wouldn't bring me here."
The old woman slowly lit the candlestick in the courtyard, adding a glimmer of light to the originally dark courtyard.
Then she put down the tinderbox in her hand and said, "The young man is quite smart."
"Today, without the cultivation of the God Transformation, you can't even find the door to enter the underworld. You must have used some secret technique to get in."
"But the secret technique has a limited duration. Can you find the person you want to find in such a short time in the vast underworld?"
"I am kind-hearted and can help you, but you have to agree to one condition."
Song Yun frowned after hearing this: "What conditions is grandma talking about?"
The old woman pondered and said, "It's not so easy to take people out of the underworld. If you want to take him away, you have to work for the underworld for twenty-five years."
Song Yun looked at the old woman in surprise and said, "Twenty-five years? Grandma, isn't the price you said a little too low?"
Twenty-five years in exchange for a life may seem like a heavy price to mortals, but to a Jindan cultivator, twenty-five years is just a blink of an eye.
No matter how you look at it, these conditions are problematic.
The old woman chuckled and said, "Twenty-five years is enough for your fate. Don't forget that you are a person of great luck."
As soon as these words were spoken, Song Yun immediately became alert. The fact that he was a person of great luck was only known to his master, and he had never told anyone else. Yet, this old lady from the underworld could see through it at a glance.
"Grandma, your status in the underworld should be quite high, which deity are you?"
The old woman said in an old voice: "Don't worry about who I am. I want to ask you if you agree to this deal."
Song Yun thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I agree."
The old woman nodded in satisfaction and said, "That's good."
The old woman took out a piece of parchment from the dark and handed it to Song Yun.
"Sign him, and I will give you the soul of your beloved."
Song Yun sneered and said, "It seems that the moment Song entered the underworld, he was already being watched."
The old woman shook her head slightly and said, "The rules of the underworld are very strict. Even if you want to take someone from the underworld away, you still have to pay a price."
"Rather than letting you do whatever you want, I'd better do it myself."
Song Yun sighed lightly, cut his finger, and pressed the blood mark on the parchment, and the Heavenly Dao Contract took effect immediately.
Seeing Song Yun signed the contract, the old woman chuckled and said, "I will send Lu Qingqing's soul back to the world of the living for you. From tomorrow on, you will be the messenger of the underworld."
"Go!"
The old woman waved her hand and took Song Yun out of the underworld.
Then the old woman murmured, "Finally, the trouble has been sent away, and I can continue to make soup."
"Meng Po, why did you let Song Yun leave the underworld so easily?"
Qin Yun's figure suddenly appeared and questioned Meng Po.
The Eastern Ghost Emperor has a very high status in the underworld, but Meng Po's identity is also very special. Although she is not among the Five Ghost Emperors, her status is equal to theirs.
So Meng Po was not afraid of Qin Yun. She smiled at Qin Yun's appearance and said, "Isn't this Lord Eastern Ghost Emperor? How come you suddenly have time to come and see me?"
Qin Yun snorted coldly and said, "Meng Po, don't evade the important issues. You haven't answered me yet."
Meng Po sighed and said, "Qin Yun, you left Song Yun to mess around in the underworld in order to help him plan for the position of Ksitigarbha."
"You want Song Yun to inherit this position and make him the founder of Buddhism?"
Qin Yun: "Why not?"
Meng Po shook her head slightly: "I know that if Dizang returns to his place, the underworld will definitely be improved, but Song Yun may not want Dizang."
"He has someone he loves, and a forced melon is not sweet, so it's better to let him go as soon as possible."
Qin Yun glanced at Meng Po and sighed, "You are blaming me for making you give up all feelings and love back then."
Meng Po shook her head and said, "I didn't say that. I went to make soup."
Meng Po slowly left the quiet courtyard.
