Chapter 1,270: To Live Long Is to Be a Thief
Ye Fu Sheng lowered his head and saw a courtyard below. In the center of the courtyard stood an old woman, not very tall, with a slightly hunched back, waving at him. Apparently, she was signaling for him to go down and take cover.
Ye Fu Sheng pondered for a moment, but ultimately decided to proceed. After all, in any dimension, stepping on empty air was strictly forbidden. In Daxia, no one dared to take such a risk lightly.
Of course, the main thing is to run forward, not knowing when you will reach the end, which will lead to a ghost catching up.
Perhaps hiding at the old woman's house while they haven't caught up would be a good idea.
Quickly fall down.
"Advanced house, come in…"
The old woman pointed to the room.
Ye Fusheng quickly entered the room. There was also a very important point, throughout Fengdu, besides the Ghost Emperor and the Great Emperor, everyone else could only be called trouble, not a threat.
If one doesn't mind adding to the complications, why not lend a hand
Ye Fu Sheng stood by the window, looking out through the crack. After just a dozen breaths, he heard the sound of countless footsteps outside, and two figures floated forward in the air.
They were clearly lost.
"How can I not see it"
"The place where he just disappeared is right in this area."
"It must be within thirty meters!"
They saw Ye Fu Sheng falling, but because the distance was too far, they couldn't determine his specific location, they could only see that he was in this area.
The man floating in the air bowed his head and said, "Old thing, about ten breaths ago, did you see a barefoot man walking on air"
The old woman raised her head: “Was it a young man He passed by, very quickly, running south the whole time.”
"Chase!"
"Catch up quickly!"
These people didn't suspect anything and quickly chased after them to the south.
……
Ye Fusheng let out a slight sigh. To be honest, he didn't believe this old woman and was already prepared to fight. The reason was simple: just now, he saw hundreds of faces but none of them were kind; it made him feel a chill.
The door was pushed open, and the old woman walked in.
"Don't be afraid, child. They have already chased after them. Just wait here for a while, and you will be completely safe soon."
Child
When Ye Fusheng heard these two words, a strange warmth filled his heart.
Bowed and said, "Thank you, Mother-in-law. I'm sorry to trouble you. I might really need to hide here for a while..."
On the one hand, it takes about two hours to walk to the judgement hall.
Time is still ample, and the demonic energy won't erupt.
On the other hand, all the buildings from here to the Hall of Judgment are consistent. If I'm not mistaken, they are all called Changsheng Town. And I feel like an outsider in this town. Even if I escape the pursuit, I can't guarantee that no one else will cause trouble. I need to calm down and think of a countermeasure.
It's okay, don't say hide, just stay here.
"This courtyard only has me, the old woman, absolutely safe."
The old woman’s face was full of kindness: “Are you hungry I can make you some food”
The soul body also needs to eat, and it is normal food, no different from the mortal world. But if you put the food of the underworld into the mortal world, it will be completely different from the food of the mortal world, and even invisible.
To put it simply, the food in Fengdu is similar to the soul of mortal cuisine, but it's called essence/qi.
Of course, one can also abstain from food and maintain oneself through meditation.
No trouble.
Ye Fusheng responded quickly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Old woman, if it's convenient, can I ask you a few questions"
I still have a lot of questions and need to get them out.
The old woman walked over to a chair and sat down: "Child, you sit too. Ask if you have any questions."
Ye Fu Sheng sat on the other side and directly asked, "Why are the people here so hostile towards me I'm just passing through, but they deliberately make things difficult for me. I haven't offended anyone, yet they all have eyes that seem determined to kill me. It's really baffling."
The old woman sighed, “It seems you’ve just arrived in the underworld. Do you know what it’s called”
Ye Fusheng said, “I just learned that this place is called Changsheng Town.”
The old woman nodded: "In Fengdu, there has never been a saying of immortality. There are only two paths: reincarnation and emptiness. But you can extend the time of reincarnation, and the way is very simple: to be always remembered by later generations."
In Changsheng Town, the residents were all heads of prominent families, contributors to society, individuals whose deeds and names were enshrined in ancestral halls. They were those who had long been venerated by incense offerings and remembered by posterity.
“You… by your looks, you should be a dead man, right”
Ye Fu Sheng chuckled and nodded, indicating he agreed.
The old woman said more directly: "So the gap is too big, even bigger than the gap between people and people. Let me give you the simplest example, if you see an ant walking in front of you swaggering around, would you think it's one of your kind"
Ye Fu Sheng was stunned. This explanation was truly astonishing. The gap between people could even reach the level of crossing species
But he quickly figured it out. The crew of the Changsheng Town set were all "Changsheng" people. Not only were they prominent in life and still respected by their descendants, but in front of ordinary souls, they were nearly invincible.
Similar to the distinction between cultivators and ordinary people!
But their eyes...
Ye Fusheng still didn't understand. He organized his thoughts before asking, "Mother-in-law, don't blame me for speaking harshly. A normal person, even when they arrive in Fengdu, should still resemble their mortal personality. According to what you said, even though mortals often look down on ants, they wouldn't kill all of them just because an ant bites."
"And these people in Changsheng Town relentlessly pursued me. Their eyes and movements were completely devoid of humanity, they could no longer be called souls."
This, is what's most perplexing about him!
Except for the mother-in-law, everyone else was shouting and clamoring for a fight, with no one showing any sympathy.
A trace of sadness flashed in the old woman's eyes, followed by a wry smile: "I've already answered you. This place is called Changsheng Town. At first, everyone here was very friendly, kind and helpful."
But think about it, a person who lives for ten years and does good deeds, versus someone who lives for a hundred years doing good deeds, or even for hundreds of years doing good deeds – everything in the Underworld has been experienced dozens, hundreds of times. What kind of person would they become
Ye Fusheng didn't answer.
The old woman spoke up on her own: "I've become numb, indifferent to everything. I no longer feel joy, sorrow, grief, or longing. All that remains is a daze in this underworld of Hades, unaware of how many more years will pass..."
Hearing this.
Ye Fusheng's face contorted with a whirlwind of emotions. Suddenly, he understood the saying in the mortal world: "All hobbies that become work are painful."
But in Fengdu, no, it should be in Changsheng Town, these people live in pain!
Whatever you do, whatever you make, has been done for hundreds of years, repeated countless times.
No wonder they are so fierce.
Because their appearance in their lives was almost a miracle, a variable that solidified the ordinary!
Ye Fusheng quickly withdrew his understanding, his face turned grim, and he said in a low voice: "Old age without death is a thief!"denly raised his hand. The populace, seeing this, slowly stopped their shouting and waited to hear what he had to sayTian Guan forcefully stabilized his emotions and said, "Since they come from the mo...
