r weaning. It varies from person to person...You don't really have any responsibilities now that you've given birth, so you and your partner should discuss whether you want to use contraception."I bl...This revered deity, Jiang Qiyun, is someone who embodies both aloofness and cunning.
As a deity of the underworld accustomed to the cycles of life and death, and the karmic afflictions that bind souls, he most detested mortals who carried the air of resentment yet lacked reverence.
So he looked at the couple with no compassion whatsoever, only coldness.
"Here, the mountains block the entrance and there is no sign of life. I have already sent Ye You Shen to investigate the customs and traditions of the surrounding areas to see if there are any rumors." Jiang Qiyun said.
"Why build a temple without doors... Shouldn't temples and Taoist monasteries be open to incense offerings and devotees" I couldn't figure it out.
If you want to live a secluded life, a thatched hut would be enough.
Why bother building a pavilion
"The world is a confusing place, even the gods don't understand everything. How could you possibly comprehend it Be careful where you step." He frowned, gripping my hand and guiding me around a stone tablet that had risen from the ground.
"How did another stone tablet appear This isn't the Land God's temple... there aren't any offerings to deities, just strange patterns." I pulled out the stone tablet and found it resembled the previous one.
The only difference is size.
"Lost." Jiang Qiyun spat out the words with disgust.
I shook my hand away, wiping it off: "Do you know this stone"
I don't know, but it feels disgusting. There's a cold and evil aura emanating from it.
...Perhaps my cultivation is too shallow, I didn't feel it.
That pair of man and woman didn't know where they rolled to, their equipment was left behind. They would probably call for help soon, or fumble their way down the mountain.
Along the way, I heard no voices of men or women. Following Jiang Qiyun, I walked in the direction of the traces, and the more I walked, the more desolate it felt.
"...Is there an eerie feeling here" I shivered in the cold wind.
In places where there are no people, the possibility of encountering a ghost hitting the wall is very high.
Jiang Qiyun slightly raised his head and pointed to a faint bluish-gray mist, saying: "Look, although the terrain here isn't steep, it's also funnel-shaped. Once there's an abnormality in the air field, it will become a place where sinister energy naturally gathers."
"How come the Taoist priests at Qingyu Dao Guan don't care" After all, this is their territory, isn't it Even if it's separated by a few hills.
"...Perhaps someone wanted them to stay out of it... Maybe some confidential information was passed around, something that shouldn't be spoken of." Jiang Qiyun said faintly.
Oh… I was just about to nod, and suddenly my foot went right through!
There was a patch of slanted grass beneath his feet, with weeds and withered branches concealing a hole in the ground!
"Ah!" I cried out in surprise, my wrist suddenly tightening. Jiang Qiyun reacted quickly, lifting me up and pulling me close.
My back was pressed against his chest, my feet not touching the grass.
Under the grass, it was empty and there was no soil.
"This... there's, there's a hole..." I whispered, trying to steady my racing heart.
Jiang Qiyun put me aside and took a close look at the surrounding soil. The soil was still quite fresh.
“Lingxuzi, the old Taoist priest, didn’t he say that there were no people around and they had also gone into seclusion Why would there be a cave” He frowned in displeasure.
“The man and woman just now said they knew the way to the closed-door observation post, and that seeing the land temple marked it… Is this imitating a tunnel Usually that observation post has its gate tightly shut, seemingly deserted. In reality, is it all accessed through this tunnel” I guessed.
Jiang Qiyun pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "No need to guess blindly, let's go in and see."
"Huh I...I'm fine going in... Are you, are you alright..." You, a celestial deity, wouldn't go through the tunnel with me, would you
If only my brother were here...
The thought flashed through my mind.
"Resolute".
Jiang Qiyun poked my forehead with one finger.
The icy touch of his fingertips against my skin sent shivers down my spine. I gazed at him, silently and intently.
"What's your problem" he asked me coolly.
"You are a celestial deity, these trivial matters shouldn't require your personal intervention. Getting involved in the affairs of the world will...burden you with karma..." I whispered.
Jiang Qiyun pondered for a moment, then chuckled lightly: "This seat controls the Underworld. Under my command is a newly appointed little ghost clerk..."
She was timid and careless, her behavior erratic. After working there for a period of time, she neither purged the vengeful spirits nor diligently cultivated her Tao. She deserves to be punished.
"Since no one in the underworld dares to reprimand her, this deity has no choice but to supervise personally... Who would have thought she was the little princess of the underworld"
What!
I'm so sorry, my work isn't good enough.
Okay, please provide the text you'd like me to translate within the > tags. For example: > I'll then give you the English translation without the tags.
My brother isn't here right now, and to be honest, I don't dare go into this pitch-black tunnel alone.
Jiang Qiyun conjured a soul lantern, and he himself transformed into a silver light swirling around me. With the dim glow of the soul lantern, I could see the path beneath my feet.
This is a tunnel excavated by the system, some places have stone walls supporting it, looking half new and half old.
Just now on the mountain road, there were more and more half stone tablets like pencil cases, stuck in the corners along the path.
Clusters of them, at a glance resembling a pile of bones.
The path was genuine and curved, but there were no forks in the road. It seemed to have a very clear goal—leading somewhere to the closed-off observatory.
There were scattered footprints on the ground, presumably from the couple who rolled down the slope and fell into this cave. The grass sprung back, covering the entrance.
These footprints were initially scattered, becoming more orderly as they went on.
No, it shouldn't be said to be neat.
Shouldn't it be... getting lighter
If it was because of fear, walking on tiptoes, then I could understand the woman, but how did that 200-pound fat man manage to make his footprints so shallow
And there were handprints on the ground, was he crawling
“There’s light ahead.” Jiang Qiyun’s voice echoed in my ear.
What kind of look is that... There's nothing but darkness ahead, where's any light
As expected, with my limited vision, I couldn't see like Jiang Qiyun. I continued to fumble forward for a long time before finally spotting a faint glimmer.
The light was very faint, it flickered twice and then went out completely.
But I saw clearly, half of a woman's back leaning against the wall in the passage.
I hurried over, clutching the Shen family talisman in my hand. If this woman was possessed by something, I would deal with it immediately.
"Hey... are you still alive" I whispered.
She was like a statue, her eyes wide and unblinking, saliva dripping from the corner of her mouth.
"Hey..." I nudged her high heel with my foot.
She was trembling all over, like she had been electrocuted, her lips opening and closing mechanically, repeating several times!
"Ghost, you, you are a ghost too..." She stared at me with vacant eyes.
"I'm not, I'm just a passerby. What about that fat guy" I diverted her attention.
She seemed to suddenly remember something, she pointed forward with her finger and choked out in a hoarse voice: "He... he... he... he just suddenly... suddenly floated away!!"
Vanished What's going on
"... How could someone possibly float away" he asked, despite being a two-hundred-pound heavyweight.
“Really! He, he suddenly kissed me, I felt like my breath stopped for a moment……” The woman trembled, as if her memory was returning little by little: “He pushed me away suddenly! I slammed into the wall… and then, then he… just vanished…”
The woman's lipstick had been smeared onto her face, and the already pale complexion was now as white as paper.
I really can't imagine a 400-pound man being able to "float" through this narrow passage.
I turned my head to look at the soul lamp beside me, and Jiang Qiyun immediately appeared behind me.
Just now that listless woman, suddenly went mad, pointing at me and shouting: “Ghost! The ghost is here again——!!!”
"Hey, you..." I want to cover her mouth.
Who knew she suddenly pulled away, opened my hand, and scrambled deep into the hallway.
Ah ah ah ah ah... Ah ah ah... Ah ah...
Her sharp voice grew fainter, echoing down the corridor.
I stared at Jiang Qiyun, speechless.
"This woman... she, she can see you..."...Liang Xiaogē came closer to me and whispered, "Little Princess... ah, no, Jiaoyi, you shouldn't have a vague understanding of us, right Didn't the Witch King introduce you"“This ghost I’m introduci...
