In the catacomb, two people talked.
"Brother Zuo, is the person we found reliable?”
"Nonsense, how can he summon such a powerful person if he's not reliable?”
Brother Zuo looked at the tomb that had become a mess and swallowed his saliva. It was the first time he had seen such a violent person.
"But, didn't he say that there are only a few minutes left until the summoning time?”
Brother Zuo slapped his companion's head.
"Don't think too much. Hurry up and follow."
The two of them quickened their pace.
They had been here before, but they had only taken a look at the periphery and had not gone deep.
However, there were many traps on the periphery alone. It was too difficult for ordinary people to enter.
Especially after the supernatural event, it made it even more difficult to enter.
Director Lin was able to enter because he relied on the spiritual device in the police station.
But now.
The wall collapsed, and the trap was destroyed before it could be activated.
Everywhere he went, there were broken stones everywhere, as if they had been forcefully blasted through.
He recalled the pillar that the little doll threw when he was entangled by the yellow-haired ghost on the road.
It was not surprising that such destruction was caused.
When the two of them arrived, they saw Hu Tian standing on the bank of a long river.
Beside him was the cute but extremely violent little doll.
Brother Zuo asked politely.
"Mr. Hu Tian, how much longer do you have as a helper? Can you bring us to save Chief Lin?”
"It's time." Hu Tian said.
The countdown to the Bronze Card to summon Nezha reached 0.
Brother Zuo was speechless.
The two of them walked up and saw an incomparably wide river in front of them.
The river water was black, and there was black gas floating on it.
Skeletal hands stretched out from the river, trying to grab anything on the surface and drag it down.
From time to time, he could see a group of red creatures swimming past, although he did not know what they were.
However, it could be clearly seen that the river water became clear for a short period of time after they swam past.
Through the clear part, one could see countless strange-looking bugs in the water.
There was also a dense mass of white skeletons.
Such a strange river ran across the river, and there were no other roads on both sides.
There were only two paths to choose from, either leaving the same way or crossing the river.
"Brother Zuo, are we still in the tomb? Why is there such a long river?”
Brother Zuo himself didn't know.
"Little Wang, don't talk too much."
"Mister Hu Tian, how should we get there?”
Hu Tian expressed that he was not too sure about this.
There would be a long river under the ground. Looking at its width, it was almost comparable to the Yellow River.
Just as they were stuck on the riverbank, a strange sound of a suona came from the upper reaches of the river.
A shabby boat floated over, and on it was a white bone covered in rags holding the oar.
There was also a man with rotten flesh on the bow of the boat, as if he had just been buried in the ground for a few years and his flesh had not rotted away yet.
A rotten smell filled the air.
It was the suona he was playing.
The small boat floated and stopped in front of the three of them.
Rotten Meat Man put down his suona and looked at the three of them, licking his lips.
He even swallowed his saliva as if he was treating the three of them as delicacies.
"Dear guests, are you going to cross the river?”
"You're bringing us there?" Hu Tian asked.”
Rotten Meat Man nodded.
"Of course, but if you want to take a boat, you have to pay for it.”
" This river is called the Styx River, and it's where the dead reside. Living people can't cross it. Even if it's a powerful living person, as long as they go down, they'll be devoured by the endless blood insects, and the remaining bones will sink into the river.”
"The rivers of the Yang Realm use money, and the River Styx of our Netherworld is naturally the same. If you want to cross, you need to give us Underworld Coins.”
"What are Underworld Coins?" Hu Tian raised his eyebrows.
"The Underworld Coins are the money of the dead. After a person dies, their relatives will often stuff copper coins into the mouth of the deceased to pay for the boat fare on the Underworld River.”
Hu Tian understood. So this was what the Underworld Coins meant.
This method of giving money to relatives could be considered to have been passed down from ancient times.
It is also known as the mouth money.
However, they weren't dead, so they naturally didn't have any Underworld Coins.
That was clearly what Rotten Meat Man was thinking.
He glanced at the three of them.
"I can see that you are very strong. You can easily kill the other two. Since you don't have Underworld Coins, I have a way.”
"As long as you kill the two of them and use their flesh and blood as money, I can take you there.”
After saying that, Rotten Meat Man looked at them with interest, wanting to see how they made their decision.
Hearing Rotten Meat Man's words, Brother Zuo and Little Wang looked at each other.
The two of them were just civil servants and had no combat ability at all. They couldn't even deal with ordinary ghosts, let alone kill Hu Tian.
The two of them hesitated.
Finally, Brother Zuo patted Little Wang's shoulder.
"I'm sorry. You're still young, but you have to suffer such a thing.”
Little Wang cried. He already knew what his end would be.
He decided to be ruthless.
"Mr. Hu Tian, please kill us. As long as we can save Chief Lin, we will die in peace.”
"I only hope that you can give us a quick death without too much pain.”
As they spoke, the two of them closed their eyes.
