Secular world: My destiny has no taboos

Chapter 334: Hucheng Transit Point - Hushou Bridge

"call--"

There is wind in the transit area.

Lin Beixuan's gaze changed slightly as he looked around.

The road they were walking on seemed to lead to an abyss with no visible front. It became darker and darker as they walked. When they turned their heads to look back, they could not even see the way back. It was as if they were walking in a completely black box.

"Even my eyesight can't see through this darkness, but why can I see Ah Xiang clearly?"

Lin Beixuan felt a little strange.

The scene in this transit path was somewhat mysterious and unknown to him.

"Don't worry, it's okay!"

At this time, Ah Xiang woke up from her thoughts and comforted Lin Beixuan, saying, "I have walked this road several times. It is much safer than other roads."

"Would it be dangerous to take any other route?"

"At least it would be life-threatening for me." Ah Xiang replied with a smile.

"..."

"Even the human immortals are in danger of their lives. This transit area is really not as simple as we imagined."

Lin Beixuan hesitated for a moment and said, "How long will it take us to get there?"

“It’s almost there. Going to other areas via transit points can greatly shorten the distance in reality. We are actually teleporting continuously.

You think we are just on one road, but we have passed several border crossings.”

Lin Beixuan nodded and asked no more questions.

In this darkness where I couldn't tell the direction and couldn't see anything, it seemed as if even time had stopped.

Suddenly, Lin Beixuan saw a faint light not far to the left.

The light was very similar to the sparks that lit up in the darkness in Huangshi Village when he first entered the secular world. Unconsciously, Lin Beixuan was fascinated by it.

"Take your eyes away!"

However, at this moment, Ah Xiang suddenly shouted harshly.

"Don't be fooled. Those are some unknown areas outside the cracks of the world. There are huge terrors hidden in them. If you fall into them, even I can't save you!"

A trace of dark electric current flickered in Ah Xiang's eyes, and she relied on her Yin Lei path to resist the heavy confusing force coming from that direction.

After hearing Ah Xiang's warning, Lin Beixuan reacted instantly, and a layer of red fire suddenly filled his eyes.

After regaining consciousness, he immediately turned his head and looked away from the cluster of sparks, and cold sweat broke out on his body involuntarily.

"Sister, didn't you say that this road is much safer?!" After taking a deep breath, Lin Beixuan calmed himself down and said.

Ah Xiang rolled her eyes in annoyance and said: "If you don't go to see it, the whole road will be fine. Isn't that safe enough?

Moreover, things like the one just now can be found on every path in the transit area, not just on this path."

"What on earth is that place?"

"I'm not sure exactly where they are, but those areas are located outside the cracks in the world and are definitely not something we can explore with our strength." Ah Xiang replied in a deep voice.

"Aside from this world and the secular world, are there other worlds?"

"I don't know, maybe the world itself is more than what we see.

The dynasties I served only occupied the Kyushu area. Outside the Kyushu area, there is a much wider world.

I know of more than a dozen huge forces outside of the dynasties that are calculated on a country basis."

When talking about this, Ah Xiang's eyes looked very solemn.

Lin Beixuan was also shocked after hearing this. He knew that there was more than just Lichao in the secular world, and there were still vast and unknown areas outside.

For example, in the secular transit experienced by the West in the present world, the evil spirits that came out from there are completely different from those from the Xuan Kingdom. I think they came from a country outside the dynasties.

"Okay, we're here."

As a faint light appeared in front, Ah Xiang's voice was heard at the same time.

Lin Beixuan looked up and saw two obvious forks at the end of the road ahead. One road still led to the unknown depths of darkness, while the other fork emitted a faint light.

This light is different from the one seen before. It has a faint scent of fireworks. The surrounding area seems to extend out like bubbles and is wrapped in a layer of light smoke, giving people a feeling that is both dreamy and real.

"Let's go!"

Ah Xiang walked in front, and the two of them soon came to where Paoying was. Without any hesitation, she pulled Lin Beixuan's wrist back and stepped in.

The familiar feeling of the world spinning around, as if I had returned from the present world to the secular world.

After a moment of trance, Lin Beixuan's vision finally returned to normal and he looked at everything in front of him.

The first is an ancient stele similar to the one in Shixianggou.

"Hu Shou Bridge".

There is still hazy mist floating in the air, like little silver snakes swimming lightly.

If you walk a few steps forward, you can see the building hidden in the fog behind it.

These buildings are completely different from those in Shixianggou. They look more weird and give people an inexplicably trendy feeling.

Most of the buildings in Shixianggou are of ancient style, but Hushou Bridge has added another layer on top of it, adding many unique coastal folk decorations to the original antique style.

Masks with strange patterns, strange-shaped sea monsters that look like dragons and fish, and mighty and domineering cold-faced gods...

These costumes all have one characteristic, which is that they are extremely colorful and are all made in an exaggerated manner.

It was the first time that Lin Beixuan saw this kind of building that seemed unified yet complex and diverse.

Below these buildings, there is the same bustling scene as in Los Angeles.

Various vendors were constantly calling out their wares, with a dazzling array of goods on display. Groups of people dressed in secular clothes were walking on the streets, and from time to time they would stop to inquire about the prices of the items on the stalls.

"Does it feel any different from Los Angeles?" Ah Xiang asked with a smile.

“The border crossings I visited for the first time in Shanghai seemed very different, but in fact they all followed the folk customs of a specific region.”

Lin Beixuan shifted his gaze away from those strange buildings. Somehow, he always felt that those equipment were alive.

"There are hundreds of households in the market, and the customs and beliefs of the people are naturally different. Each region has its own secular gods. Whatever the secular gods look like, the worshippers below will naturally learn and imitate them."

Ah Xiang smiled, took Lin Beixuan to a corner where there were few people, pushed open a small door and walked in.

Lin Beixuan narrowed his eyes when he saw this. After entering the room, he saw two children who were about five or six years old.

A boy and a girl.

The two children were wearing the same clothes. The boy was holding a bone-weighing jade slip, and the girl was holding a star compass in her arms.

When the two men saw Ah Xiang, they immediately came forward, knelt on the ground with their petite bodies, and called out respectfully.

"Greetings, Master Priest!"

Ah Xiang smiled and nodded, then jumped over the two little guys kneeling on the ground without any hesitation and came to a table in the middle of the hall.

There was an incense burner on the table with three burning incense sticks in it. Wisps of smoke rose up and drifted towards a shrine standing behind it.

Lin Beixuan looked over in surprise and saw that the statue enshrined in the shrine looked exactly like Ah Xiang.
