After joining Hades

Xiao Lian Deng fell into an exceptionally deep sleep this time, and did not wake up for several days.

Although Lu Zheng said it was fine, Wen Bai was still a little worried, so he didn't bring the picture of the morning glory home, and slept on the second floor of Yinsi with Xiaoliandeng these days.

With the matter of the little lotus lantern hanging on his mind, Wen Bai didn't sleep very well, and when he was free, his mind became chaotic.

For a while, he was worried about Xiao Lian Deng's illness, for a while, he was worried about the inexplicably broken restriction, and for a while, he remembered what Lu Zheng said to him that day, so when Lin Qiu found him, to be honest, Wen Bai breathed a sigh of relief.

It's better to be busy.

When Wen Bai came in, Lu Zheng was sitting on the sofa, and on the coffee table in front of him was the emerald lotus lamp.

Maybe it’s because I know that the emerald lotus lamp is not as good-looking as it is, and it won’t move. After the small lotus lamp has been inlaid with pearls for a few days, I don’t compete with it anymore, but it’s still a lotus lamp, and it’s still made of emerald. Emerald is more expensive than paper. However, Xiao Lian Deng didn't want Wen Bai to take it home, so the jadeite was left in Lu Zheng's office.

"How did you take it out?" Wen Bai asked.

Lu Zheng casually put the jade lotus lantern into the box: "When Xie Jiuzhang was leaving, I bumped into it."

Wen Bai: "Did it break?"

Lu Zheng shook his head.

After a short moment of silence, Lu Zheng spoke again: "Like jade?"

Wen Bai didn't bother Lu Zheng anymore, hugged the outer box, and carefully put the jade into the glove box at the side.

"No one doesn't like it, right?" Wen Bai said jokingly, if you ask anyone in Yangjian, the answer will be the same.

Wen Bai put the box safely and securely, making sure that it would not be kicked and bumped, and then pushed the glove box into the lower compartment.

Turning around, I heard Lu Zheng ask again: "Except for jade."

"A lot, gold, silver and jewellery." Wen Bai didn't know why Lu Zheng asked this, but he knew that Lu Zheng didn't think much of gold and jade, so he smiled when he thought of this, "Boss , we Yangjian people are very vulgar, we like hard currency like gold."

"In our words, vulgarity is elegance."

"Like Wen Yuanyuan?" Lu Zheng seemed a little puzzled.

Wen Bai paused for a moment before realizing that what Lu Zheng was talking about was a "little rich woman" who was raised as a daughter for a few days and was full of jewels.

Wen Bai endured a smile: "Almost."

It is indeed very rich, and ordinary people cannot afford it.

Lu Zheng was thoughtful.

This topic ended before Wen Bai got down to business.

"The spiritual pressure has increased?" Lu Zheng frowned.

Wen Bai: "Well, that's what Daoist Xuanji said."

Zhong Shining had already mentioned what the rise in spiritual pressure meant to Wen Bai, and later Lin Qiu repeated what Daoist Xuanji said verbatim, and Wen Bai basically understood it.

"According to Lin Qiu, Daoist Xuanji has been there many times, and basically every time there are villagers living there, the person in charge will call."

"The villagers don't have any major problems, but they are infected with yin qi. The mahogany talisman will be fine if they are broken, but Daoist Xuanji has never found the source of these yin qi."

This is the key point, and this is what the director is afraid of. If the root cause is not solved, there will only be batch after batch of villagers who will be haunted again.

Fortunately, there are not many people, and it is impossible to predict what will happen after a long delay, so I asked Lin Qiu to find Wen Bai.

Lu Zheng's expression was a bit serious, Wen Bai paused for a moment: "Is there any problem?"

"Go and see."

--

The next day, the group followed Lin Qiu to the Chengfeng Film and Television Base.

The tourist season is over, and it's late autumn again, there are not many tourists outside the base, but Wen Bai and Lu Zheng standing there, together with a Lin Qiu wearing Taoist robes, still attracted the attention of many people.

"Which crew is this actor from? He looks so good-looking?"

"It's a newcomer, it's a bit unfamiliar."

"Is the one next to them a Taoist priest? What kind of period film is this filming?"

The person in charge smiled apologetically from the side: "Both..."

Wen Bai and Lu Zheng were dressed in regular clothes, and their looks were too outstanding. If Lin Qiu hadn't brought them here, the person in charge would have thought they were actors who joined the group.

Later, when I found out that it was the "senior" invited by the supervisor, I didn't know what to call it for a moment, and finally picked the one that didn't go wrong: "You two elders, this way."

"It's really strange here." Zhong Shining, who was doing an on-site internship for the first time, said from the side.

Lu Zheng and Wen Bai turned their heads at the same time and glanced at him.

"What's strange?" Wen Bai was a little curious.

Zhong Shining closed his eyes and felt it: "Bad intuition."

Wen Bai laughed.

After Zhong Shining finished speaking, he slowed down a little, and instead of following Wen Bai, he stood beside Lin Qiu.

Looking at the two people standing side by side in front of him, his mind wandered a little far away.

The sum of all his years in Yangjian is about twenty years, and most of the time is spent studying and studying, and he has no time to fall in love at all. When he reaches the age when he can fall in love, he will be gone.

Not during his lifetime, and even less after his death, because he doesn't understand human love and love.

He couldn't understand the relationship between Xiaobai and the boss, but Zhou Wei kept reminding him that if he wanted to live a comfortable life, he had better not be too "presumptuous" in front of the boss.

This "presumptuousness" refers to not being too "intimate" with Xiaobai.

After talking too much, Zhong Shining naturally understood the meaning of Zhou Wei's words.

But according to his observations in the past few days, he felt that the relationship between Xiaobai and the boss didn't seem to be what Zhou Wei said?

But Zhong Shining cherished this opportunity to go out with Wen Bai and Lu Zheng very much. Apart from this time, he wanted to have a next time, so he kept Zhou Wei's teaching in mind.

Wen Bai didn't notice Zhong Shining's footsteps suddenly slowed down, but Lu Zheng did.

At the same time, he noticed Lin Qiu beside Zhong Shining.

Lin Qiu felt a chill around him, and Wen Bai had told him before that there were actually three people who came this time, and there was also a little grandfather of the Zhong family, so he knew that it was Zhong Shining who had come.

It was Senior Wen's friend, and also the young master of the Zhong family, Lin Qiu immediately nodded slightly, and said, "Hello, sir."

Immediately, his forehead seemed to be touched by some wind.

After walking for nearly 10 minutes, Wen Bai and the others finally bypassed the city wall ahead.

"Why do I seem to hear the sound of water?" Wen Bai was a little uncertain until Lu Zheng nodded.

"Yes," the person in charge said immediately, "there is the Chensha River."

Wen Bai has been in Nancheng for so many years, but he has never heard of Shensha River.

"Chensha River? Is it a newly opened river?"

The person in charge glanced at Wen Bai.

Wen Bai: "I'm from Nancheng."

No wonder they asked this question, and the person in charge suddenly understood: "In fact, this has always been an ancient river, but many years ago, the river changed its course and stopped flowing early."

"The Immortal Elder should know about Mingjiang, right?"

Mingjiang, not to mention Wen Bai, even Zhong Shining knew about it, because it was the largest river in Nancheng.

"This water comes from the Mingjiang River. The waterway in the lower reaches of the Mingjiang River has been adjusted in the past two years, and a little water has flowed in, but not much. The water level is very shallow, so it can't be called a river. We usually don't hear any sound of water. Immortal Elder has good ears."

The person in charge looked over there, and said one more sentence: "It's a pity, it is said that hundreds of years ago, there was still a long river over there."

Wen Bai listened to the shallow sound of water and smiled.

Even in ten years, this world has changed, let alone a hundred years.

After passing through the last short arched tunnel, the person in charge finally said, "Here we are."

Wen Bai stood at the entrance of the cave and paused.

And the eaves with red walls and green tiles in front, this side is desolate.

It is not so much an area designated for protection as an abandoned place.

Wen Bai was about to go forward when he was suddenly stopped by Lu Zheng: "Stay here."

After all, he walked out by himself.

Wen Bai felt that things might be a little tricky.

There was a ticking sound in the baggage that Lin Qiu was carrying with him, and Wen Bai turned his head to look over, and saw a copper-yellow gossip compass.

The magnetic needle in the center was dangling randomly.

"What, what does this mean?" Zhong Shining couldn't understand the compass, but it wasn't a good thing at first glance, let alone the ticking sound of the magnetic needle lingering in his ears, which made people feel flustered.

Wen Bai didn't even have time to ask, subconsciously shouted: "Lu Zheng!"

After running for two or three steps, he remembered what Lu Zheng said just now, and stopped abruptly.

When Lu Zheng turned his head, what he saw was Wen Bai who barely stopped.

Knowing that this person was worried about him, Lu Zheng smiled, paused, turned and walked towards Wen Bai.

"Lin Qiu's compass keeps moving, I..." Lu Zheng came to him, but Wen Bai didn't know what to say.

Fortunately, Lin Qiu accepted his words.

"Senior, the spiritual pressure seems to be suddenly unstable."

Lin Qiu was holding the compass, and his whole body was tense.

He has been with the master for many years, and he has visited hundreds if not thousands of places, but he has never seen the compass move so violently.

"I know." Lu Zheng replied lightly.

Wen Bai had already calmed down, seeing Lu Zheng's downplaying, he knew it was nothing serious.

After calming down, thinking of his actions just now, for no reason, he was a little afraid to look at Lu Zheng.

"So what's going on?" Wen Bai tried his best to pretend nothing happened.

Lu Zheng didn't expose it either: "There's something underneath."

"Next?"

"Well," Lu Zheng didn't say much, "If you want to stay here, come with me."

Back to this topic again.

If Lu Zheng had asked this question before that happened, Wen Bai would have answered immediately to go with you, but now...

Wen Bai turned his head away: "Since it's all right, I'll just stay here."

Lu Zheng smiled lightly: "Really."

He said "really", but didn't move his footsteps, as if he was saying "continue to make up" brightly.

Wen Bai: "..."

Zhong Shining raised his hand first: "I want to go and have a look."

Lin Qiu also put the compass back into the small cloth bag and nodded.

Wen Bai: "..."

Knowing that there was something underneath, Wen Bai was very cautious when he settled down.

"You just said that there is something underneath, what is it?" Wen Bai finally asked.

Lu Zheng: "Soul."

"Is it a soul, not a ghost?" Lin Qiu seemed very confused.

Seeing Wen Bai looking over, Lin Qiu quickly explained: "In the beginning, my master also thought it was a soul body, but as the spiritual pressure got higher and higher, my master thought it was unlikely to be a soul body."

"Places with high spiritual pressure are usually places such as mass graves and cemeteries, such as Xiangshan, but my master has checked the ancient books of this place, and it seems that there is no such situation here."

Wen Bai knew very well that the news that Zhengtian Temple could find should not be false.

It is likely to be an ancient book that ordinary people cannot touch.

Without the intention from above, it is impossible for the person in charge to find Zhengtian Temple in the first place.

Lu Zheng said in a low voice: "How many years ago did he find out."

Lin Qiu was taken aback by the question, and it took him a while to reply, "About a hundred years."

Lu Zheng only gave an "um" and didn't speak any more.

But the more Lin Qiu thought about it, the more wrong he became. Suddenly, he realized: "Senior, you mean a hundred years ago?"

Lu Zheng: "Not only."

Now it's not just Lin Qiu, even Wen Bai is startled.

Lin Qiu was anxious: "It has been sealed for so many years, so, that resentment!"

Lu Zheng said indifferently: "I really have resentment, your master can't get out of here."

Lin Qiu seemed to have been slapped hard.

That's right, if it's really a thousand-year-old grievance, his master can't get out of it completely, and it's impossible for those villagers to just be a little smug.

Wen Bai patted Lin Qiu on the shoulder, signaling him not to be nervous, and then looked at Lu Zheng.

Aware of Wen Bai's gaze, Lu Zheng's tone softened a bit: "They are all ordinary souls, but they just lost consciousness and fell into a deep sleep."

Wen Bai noticed that what Lu Zheng said was that he lost consciousness and fell into a deep sleep, not that his consciousness was chaotic.

"The Reiatsu is because..."

"Well, maybe I'm waking up."

Wen Bai was speechless for a while.

A few people walked along the ancient street that had been buried long ago, until they reached the river bank, and then stopped.

"Xiaobai, boss, what does this mean?" Zhong Shining was a little confused.

Lu Zheng twisted a small piece of loess on his fingertips, not knowing what to do.

"These souls have no resentment, it's just that there are too many souls, and it may take a little effort to deal with them."

"You can't solve the problem alone, so you need to call a few people over."

As for Lu Zheng...

There is always a reason for these souls sleeping here thousands of years ago, and they can't just pass by like this.

Afraid that what he said would disturb him, Wen Bai took a step back. Lin Qiu saw it and reminded him: "Senior, be careful."

Wen Bai nodded and turned around.

If the person in charge hadn't said that this is an ancient river, Wen Bai would definitely not have thought about it.

Even after he said it, Wen Bai looked carefully, but he didn't see any shadow of the ancient river.

Not even the stream.

Some riverbeds are even exposed.

But looking at it, Wen Bai suddenly felt a little dizzy.

He originally thought it was his own illusion, until the scene in front of him couldn't help shaking and turning upside down.

Wen Bai closed his eyes.
