My enemies became my companions

Chapter 335: More like listening to the snow?

After everything was over, Yin Weiying was held in Chen Yi's arms.

Chen Yi kissed her lips and said with a smile:
"Not a good sister anymore?"

Yin Weiying shrank back upon hearing this, and said repeatedly with shame:

"No, no... don't come here."

Chen Yi smiled and held her in his arms. She was sweating profusely and her panting breath hit Chen Yi's chest.

At this time, Yin Weiying was quite well behaved, but just a little stiff due to fear.

Holding her in his arms, Chen Yi's eyes widened, his heart became more gentle, and he said:

"No, look how adorable you are... Actually, when it comes to this kind of thing, I like your taste better."

"Like...my taste?"

"Yeah." Chen Yi did not deny it.

Yin Weiying shrank back a little, but seemed to want to ask something, so he leaned forward again.

Seeing this, Chen Yi said, "Ask whatever you want to ask."

Yin Weiying hesitated for a moment, but still asked: "...Does that mean you like it more than... listening to the snow?"

Chen Yi was stunned when he heard this.

Are women so good at comparing themselves with each other? They even compare this matter.

On the contrary, if they all like me wholeheartedly, wouldn't it be like a Shura field when Yin and Yin Xiao are on par with each other?
However, Chen Yi still admitted: "It is true."

"Since you like me,"

Yin Weiying lowered his head and said sullenly:
"I'm already calling you brother...why don't you slow down..."

When her words, which sounded like a complaint but not like a complaint, fell into Chen Yi's ears, he felt his waist go numb, and he hugged Yin Weiying closer.

As soon as he got close to him, Yin Weiying's breathing became rapid and his face turned slightly pale, but it eventually slowed down.

She felt indescribable.

At this time, Chen Yi's voice came to my ear:

"It's because I like it that I don't want to slow down."

Yin Weiying suddenly paused, and then her hand was grasped by Chen Yi, and two more true essences fell into her body.

The nun looked up at him in disbelief.

Chen Yi said slowly: "Consider it your engagement ceremony."

Something seemed to flow through Yin Weiying's heart, and her eyes felt slightly sore. After so long, she finally felt his love for her.

Hard work pays off, even for those who are working as the cauldron. The sweet and sour taste flows through the heart, and waves are swirling in the lake of the heart. Even though Yin Weiying is afraid of him, this time he can't help but lean his head forward and let it rest on his arms.

After a long while, she whispered:

"It will be my birthday soon."

Chen Yi naturally remembered that it was on the seventh day of February.

He recalled the promise made by this confused woman to him on a moonlit night not long ago, that if he really liked her at that time, he would give her a hairpin.

"I remember." Chen Yi said softly.

Yin Weiying nodded slightly, even though she more or less knew that Chen Yi didn't like her that much.

But I like it very much, and it’s not far off, right?

Lying on his arms, the nun felt a faint tingling sensation, like fear, a fear of trying to get the skin of a tiger, but she suddenly found it incredible. This was her ignorance. He gave her his arms so gently to lean on, allowing her to get close to his heart, as if he could take her life with just a raise of his hand.

With this distance as his pillow, Yin Weiying slowly fell asleep.

...............................

Led by the big cat and the little mouse girl, they walked for two days and were getting closer and closer to the place where Lord Wuchang was.

The name is the Soul-Grewing Valley, taken from the meaning of the Black and White Impermanence taking souls and demanding lives. The gray air of the underworld lingers in the valley, and the mountains are steep and the roads are rugged, making the journey even more difficult. Chen Yi made marks along the way so that he could return the same way.

There are very few sounds in the valley, which is generally dead. There are occasional bones at the feet, and there are often red spider lilies growing next to the bones. Most of these bones were left by people who accidentally entered the underworld. These people came to the underworld at the junction of Yin and Yang such as the Day of Slaying Bandits and Eliminating Demons. Many of them could not turn back and finally died in these corners.

Firstly, there is almost no food in this underworld, and there are stone forests everywhere. When you are hungry, you can only eat heartbreak grass and red spider lily. Eating heartbreak grass will cause death, while eating red spider lily will constantly consume your soul, which is like drinking poison to quench thirst.

Even if one is lucky enough to be discovered by patrolling ghosts and eat some normal food in the world of the living, the cold wind in the underworld is not something that humans can stand. When the cold wind blows on the body, evil spirits will come with it. At first, there will be no problem, but if one stays there for a long time, for example, for ten or twenty years in a row, then no matter how much yang energy a person has, it will be exhausted and he will become no different from a ghost.

As for the souls that died along the way, most of them were taken away by patrolling ghosts and taken to the Ministry of Rewards and Punishments for trial, and finally handed over to the King of Hell to approve their whereabouts.

The road ahead was dark and gloomy, but one could vaguely see the corners of a slightly raised eave. Two steps forward, one could see a quaint courtyard, which was bustling with people and seemed to be filled with guests.

"It seems that Lord Wuchang is quite welcoming to you." Chen Yi said indifferently.

After hearing this, the big cat arched its body, its fur stood up, and it exhaled.

Seeing this, the little mouse girl said quickly, "Sir, don't joke around. This Lord Wuchang has been doing all kinds of evil during his time here. He has taken in ten concubines alone."

Yin Weiying glanced at Chen Yi subconsciously.

Chen Yi glanced back at her, and the nun hurriedly turned her face away.

The little mouse girl was totally unaware and continued:
"Sir, you should be more respectful to Master Wuchang when you meet him. After all, Master Wuchang used to be a policeman, and he has the entire Ghost Gate behind him. He knows people there."

What the little mouse girl meant, both explicitly and implicitly, was that after Chen Yi and Yin Weiying entered, they had better be more respectful and be careful to avoid Lord Wuchang.

For these evil rats, even the retired Black and White Impermanence are already big figures.

Chen Yi did not explain much to the rat and cat. Instead, he told them to take care of themselves and took Yin Weiying to the yard.

..............................

Most of the people who came to the banquet in the unique courtyard were fellow ghost officials. Jars of fine wine, which was rare in the underworld, were opened, and the aroma of the wine wafted in the air, making people feel drunk.

The concubine had not yet arrived at the house, but a banquet had already started in the yard.

Whether or not to take a concubine is a small matter, while holding a banquet in the name of taking a concubine and maintaining relationships with old colleagues is a big matter.

The Lord Wuchang mentioned by the little mouse girl naturally sat high on the main seat, wearing a red robe, and the colleagues who were now working at the Ghost Gate were sitting on the two seats on both sides. There were ten Yama Palaces in the underworld, and each Yama Palace had similar official positions. The Lord Wuchang entrenched in the Soul-Catching Valley was naturally the Black Wuchang of the First Yama Palace. He had been an official for thousands of years and then retired. He did not reincarnate by virtue of his merits, but became a local tyrant at the junction of the First and Second Palaces.

Naturally, the underworld would investigate such a matter, but the ghost city of Yingdu in the Second Hall was already in chaos and was completely unable to handle the border issue. Lord Wuchang had colleagues from top to bottom in the First Hall, so no one would come to deal with it.

So, this originally ownerless Soul-Catching Bone now has a mountain king.

"Thank you all for visiting my humble abode today."

Lord Wuchang sat on the main seat, looked around and then bowed and said:
"I have just taken in a concubine, so the banquet is not very grand. I hope you will forgive me."

As soon as the host's polite words came out, there was a lively response from the audience.

"What? What?"

"Oh my, such a good wine, what a waste."

"What's the point of talking about spending money? It was all paid for by those wicked rats. Haha, they gave it to my daughter and then gave her money."

…………

There was jubilation in the air, and there were so many guests that no one noticed that two more living people with talismans attached to them walked in.

Chen Yi and Yin Weiying both had talismans pasted on their bodies. This talisman was called the Yang Qi Breath-Holding Talisman, which could temporarily block the leakage of the Yang Qi in the body to avoid being discovered.

Chen Yi looked around and introduced himself to Yin Weiying in secret.

He pointed at the pig-headed ghost and said:
"This pig-faced ghost is the manager here. You can see that he has a fat face but he is actually very scheming. Didn't Master Wuchang take many concubines? That caused the dissatisfaction of his wife, and he secretly had an affair with her. And because he took good care of the yard, Master Wuchang was kept in the dark and didn't even know about it."

Then he pointed at a pale-faced scholar and said:

"You should know that ghosts have to pass through the Ghost Gate to go to the Ghost City, and the recorder of the Ghost Gate is this failed scholar who is frustrated in the mortal world. The fact that this man can appear at this banquet shows that many evil people have escaped under him."

"And the one in armor?"

"He is the commander of the underworld, one of the coaches in charge of the ghost soldiers. Since Ghost Gate is a pass, there must be soldiers, and where there are soldiers, there must be generals, and where there are generals, there must be greed."

…………

Chen Yi knew almost every person here by heart, and could even enumerate their numerous crimes. The more Yin Weiying listened, the more horrified he became.

It seemed as if nothing could be hidden from his eyes.

Is this really clairvoyance? Does clairvoyance really have such a capability?
Thinking of this, Yin Weiying's fingertips trembled slightly.

I used to go against people like this...

Moreover, after doing the opposite, he could still survive, even if he lived as a Dinglu... and so many masters died in his hands...

I really...

She is worthy of the title of Goddess of Taihua!

Yin Weiying had a greater admiration for himself.

But then again, how could he know almost everything about the underworld?

Yin Weiying thought so and glanced at Chen Yi out of the corner of his eye.

Chen Yi's eyes fell on the door, waiting for the guests to walk into the banquet hall one by one. When there was no one left outside, the door slowly closed.

The whole house is filled with evil spirits...

The Lord Wuchang, who was sitting at the head of the table, had already stood up. He clasped his fists towards everyone and waved his hand, saying:
"Come on, bring out all the good wine and meat from home, or I'll scold you back!"

Amid the jubilation, a large iron pot was brought to the table by the ghost servants. Hot smoke was rising from it, and the thick yellow soup was fragrant, as if it had been simmering for who knows how long.

As the cook stood on a stool and shook the huge soup spoon, the soup inside slowly floated out.

Yin Weiying's pupils shrank sharply.

Lord Wuchang guards this mountain road as the king of the mountain. Countless living people who have mistakenly entered the underworld have passed by this place.
Lord Wuchang didn't even wait for the rats to send his concubine there. It didn't matter whether the concubine was sent there or not. What was important was to win over these colleagues. After all, relationships needed to be constantly managed and maintained.

As long as he has connections, he can continue to be the king of the mountain.

As for how to treat this concubine, Master Wuchang doesn't care. He will just find an empty room to support her.

In the mortal world, people would go to great lengths to send their daughters to high-ranking officials as concubines, isn't it because they are planning on how the high-ranking officials will abuse them? Not to mention daughters, even wives who have been with each other through thick and thin have been sent as concubines.

All the guests took their seats, only two people were still standing.

The host and the guests were all happy. Wu Chang, who had been sitting happily on the main seat, looked over in confusion and asked, "Why don't you sit down?"

The man seemed not to hear anything, and pointed at people in different positions while whispering something.

"This steward is having an affair with the lady. If we threaten him with this, he will agree to rebel against the Lord Wu Chang, but we need to gather some people.

This general is bloodthirsty by nature, so if he is promised to become the king of the mountain, he will join in without hesitation.

The scholar is a bit more troublesome, but if you give him Lord Wuchang's beautiful concubine and threaten him repeatedly, he will also rebel.

However, everything will be exposed, because the steward has confessed to Lord Wuchang in private, so Lord Wuchang will want to catch all of them in one fell swoop, but when things get critical, Madam will secretly attack Lord Wuchang and stab him half to death, and then everyone will rush forward..."

The man's voice became higher and louder.

The ghosts present looked at each other in confusion at first, then gradually became confused and their faces turned pale.

Lord Wuchang glanced at the steward, who looked at the lady in panic, while the lady tightly grasped the dagger in her arms.

The scholar had already stood up, ready to angrily scold the man for swearing at him, while the recruiting envoy remained silent, not hiding his murderous intent...

Angry, panicked, astonished... a picture of the underworld.

Only the man walked slowly forward under the gaze of the nun, and slowly unsheathed the embroidered spring sword at his waist.

"But don't bother today.
Just kill them all."

In the sound of boiling soup,

That man's murderous intent was evident.

In the second round, I can finally go on a killing spree.
