"Hey, it can't be, right?
Hey! "Du Kang stomped his feet and shouted. In the end, no one paid any attention to him. Du Kang was so angry that he flung his sleeves and turned around to leave.
"Really, you didn't even wait for me to say anything and you threw me into the wilderness. Really, what kind of place is this?"
Du Kang muttered as he staggered along. Suddenly, a cold wind blew past. Even Du Kang couldn't help but wrap his arms around his shoulders and shiver. He cursed in a low voice, "Damn it, this wind is so cold it's seeping into my bones."
After leaving Granny Meng's Village, as far as the eye could see, it was no longer a dark and withered yellow road to the Yellow Springs. Instead, there were towering mountains and lofty ridges, tiger woods and wolf forests. The shadows of the trees were so dense that one couldn't see the sun. There were layers upon layers of wisteria, and there was no light from the moon or stars.
A winding road led straight into the depths of the mountains. There were many severed limbs and half bodies on the side of the road. All of them had their intestines pierced through and their internal organs smeared all over the ground.
The soil under their feet was dark red. It was unknown how long it had been soaked in minced meat and blood. When one stepped on it, it was like soft mud. It was as if there was an invisible suction force trying to pull one down.
Looking at the miserable scene in front of him, Du Kang couldn't help but be frightened. In the past, he thought that after the battlefield and the smoke and flames of war, it was already hell on earth. But now, it seemed that it was nothing.
The bodies on the side of the road rolled around and howled miserably. Their intestines were pierced, their limbs were broken, and even if they only had a single head left, they were all howling miserably.
This was already the underworld. How could the dead die here?
So they could only suffer here, a life worse than death.
Just then, Du Kang saw a giant dog the size of a calf walk out from the depths of the forest. Its canine teeth were sharp, and blood dripped from the corner of its mouth to the ground. It was biting on a severed arm.
A pair of blood-red eyes swept over Du Kang. Its nose twitched twice, and it wagged its tail. A low growl came from its throat as it slowly walked past Du Kang.
To be honest, this was the first time that Du Kang had seen such a big dog. Not to mention that this guy was holding a human arm in its mouth.
"Could this be the Evil Dog Village?"
Du Kang scratched the back of his head and looked around. There was an old forest that covered the sky. There was no sign of a village.
"Save … save me!"
Suddenly, a very faint voice came from the bushes. Du Kang was shocked. Suddenly hearing a cry for help in this kind of environment, anyone's first reaction would be to wonder what the hell was going on!
Following the sound, Du Kang carefully made his way to the edge of the bushes. He reached out and pushed aside a patch of thorns, revealing half of a man's body. His legs had been bitten into a bloody mess, and the part below the knee was all white bones.
"Who are you?"
Du Kang subconsciously wanted to reach out and pull the man out, but he stopped halfway. Looking at the man in front of him, he couldn't help but frown and ask coldly, "The Underworld will never let people suffer unjustly. Who are you to suffer the pain of being dismembered by evil dogs?"
"I …" The man smiled bitterly. He struggled to support his upper body with his elbow, revealing a face full of mud and flesh. His lips were cracked, and his eyes were unfocused. His voice was intermittent, as if he would stop breathing at any time.
Of course, Du Kang didn't have to worry about this man suddenly dying, because he was already dead. Even if he wanted to die here, he couldn't. He could only endure endless pain.
"I … Hey!
You can go … "The man's unfocused eyes flashed with a trace of light, but it immediately dimmed. His whole body seemed to be drained of the last trace of strength. His hands loosened, and his whole body directly fell to the ground with a muffled bang.
"Hey!
Hey! "Du Kang shouted twice, but the man didn't say a word.
Raising his eyebrows, Du Kang looked at the man again. He was wearing a decent suit. Du Kang didn't know the brand, but the fabric was obviously high-quality. This man should be a person of high status when he was alive. Unfortunately, no matter how powerful he was when he was alive, he would be treated the same way when he was in the Underworld.
Du Kang quickly walked through the old forest in front of him, and a dilapidated village appeared on the hillside in front of him. Many skinny people were lying on the side of the road, and some were still grabbing the ground with their hands, crawling forward bit by bit. From afar, Du Kang saw Weiwei, and her back flashed into the village.
"Sister Chu, Sister Chu!" Du Kang shouted Weiwei, wanting her to stop and wait for him, while he strode over.
"Stop! Golden Chicken Ridge is forbidden to barge in!" Suddenly, a mourning stick stretched out from the side and blocked Du Kang's way.
"Hmm!"
Taking half a step back, Du Kang looked at the woman in white who seemed to suddenly grow out of the ground. She was wearing a loose white robe, and a tall and pointed hat was slanted on her head. Her long black hair was draped over her shoulders, and a ghost mask covered half of her face, revealing only a pair of intelligent eyes.
Even though the white robe was loose, Du Kang could see that this woman had a curvy figure and was a beauty, but this beauty was deadly.
"Are you White Impermanence?" Du Kang asked timidly.
It would have been better if he didn't speak, but when Du Kang opened his mouth, his Yang Qi leaked out. White Impermanence's delicate eyebrows suddenly frowned, and she held the mourning stick horizontally to block Du Kang's way. She asked coldly, "Who are you? How dare you barge into the Underworld?"
"This …" Du Kang touched the tip of his nose. He thought that if he told the truth to Meng Xing, although Meng Xing didn't really help him, he would at least give him face by sending him to the Vicious Dog Village at the foot of the Golden Chicken Ridge.
Weiwei should have a good relationship with ghosts. Maybe if he told the truth, this White Impermanence could help him find the lost soul of Weiwei.
"It's like this …" Du Kang briefly introduced his origin and purpose. Fearing that White Impermanence didn't believe him, he even pointed his finger between his eyebrows. Suddenly, a mark of a small black snake swallowing the sky appeared between his eyebrows. Although it was a little dim, the breath could not be faked.
"You are Xiao Pang, right?" White Impermanence put away the mourning stick and asked.
Du Kang was stunned and carefully recalled. It seemed that he didn't mention his nickname just now. How did White Impermanence, who he had never met, know it? Did she really know Weiwei?
Nodding quickly, Du Kang said, "Yes, yes, I am Xiao Pang of the 1314 convenience store. Sister, do you know Sister Chu?"
"Weiwei, of course I know her. It seems that the person just now is Weiwei." White Impermanence turned her hand and put the mourning stick behind her back. "Since you are here to take Weiwei back, then you don't have to worry. Big Brother has already gone to chase after her. I think he will be back soon. Sit down, sit down."
Du Kang was pulled by White Impermanence to sit on the stone tablet at the entrance of the village. Finding that White Impermanence was looking at him up and down, Du Kang felt a little strange and couldn't help coughing twice. "Sister Impermanence, I am Du Kang, also known as Xiao Pang. Since you know this, should I tell you your name?"
