The reason why Zu An was shocked was not because of their appearance. After all, he had seen many scarier-looking monsters these days, but because they looked very much like the legendary Black and White Impermanence from his previous life!
His eyes fell on the black and white mourning stick in the hands of the two ghosts. There were strips of cloth tied everywhere on the stick, which looked like a feather duster.
Zu An did not dare to underestimate him at all, because he noticed that there seemed to be a kind of regular power on the two sticks, which seemed to have a direct effect on the soul.
"Another brat is here. It seems that this month's performance is about to be completed." Hei Wuchang said angrily. He was obviously talking about something happy, but there was no trace of joy on his face.
On the contrary, Bai Wuchang said with a smile: "Yes, we can also take a good vacation."
Zu An: "???"
Why is this black and white impermanence like those workers and social animals in the previous life, thinking about fishing all day long?
But he quickly tensed up. He had something important to do, and he definitely couldn't be captured by this black and white situation. It seemed that a fierce battle was inevitable.
The opponent's two mourning sticks seem to be a great threat to my current state. It seems that I need to use their carelessness at this time to attack in a sneak attack, which should be able to achieve the effect of instant kill.
Although Zu An judged it this way, he did not take action immediately because he had some scruples in his heart.
According to the myths and legends of his previous life, Black and White Wuchang was a genuine civil servant in the underworld, and his rank seemed to be quite high.
When I first came to the Netherworld Underworld, I killed the officials within the system. Wouldn’t that mean I was immediately on the opposite side of the entire Underworld?
Not to mention completing the mission by then, I'm afraid it will be difficult to move forward in the Netherworld.
Just when he was a little confused, Bai Wuchang suddenly spoke: "Hey, why do I feel that this kid is something special."
Hei Wuchang was also stunned: "Yes, he is not an ordinary lonely ghost, and he seems to be a bit strong."
While speaking, he quietly picked up the mourning stick.
Zu An felt a chill in his heart. It seemed he couldn't wait any longer. Even if he didn't kill them, he had to restrain them first.
Just when he was about to take action, Bai Wuchang suddenly said: "There is a mysterious aura about him. Hey, it turns out he is a colleague. I am disrespectful."
"Same... Colleague?" Zu An was about to take action when he couldn't help but froze when he heard this. He thought of ten thousand situations, but this was not included.
"Isn't it?" Bai Wuchang put the mourning stick back behind his back and his expression became a little affectionate.
Zu An did not relax his vigilance. Who knows if this guy was just talking about his secrets and wanted to sneak attack on him without any moral ethics.
He secretly glanced at Hei Wuchang and saw that he also put away the mourning stick: "It turns out to be the new Wangchuan ferryman. Why didn't you tell me earlier? It almost caused a misunderstanding."
Zu An was even more confused: "Forgotten River Ferryman?"
Wait a minute, the mysterious colossus said before that I have a fate with Wangchuan, and used a drop of Wangchuan water as a medium to use a secret method to enter the netherworld in my current state. Is this the identity he arranged for me? ?
Seeing his confused look, Black and White Wuchang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Brother, I have just arrived in the Netherworld, so it is normal for me to be unclear about the situation here. Don't think that the Forgotten River Ferryman has anything to do with the previous life. Working on a ship, making iron and grinding tofu is just like a hard job, but this is a great position in the Netherworld. I must have accumulated a lot of merit during my lifetime, so I can be appointed to such a position."
"I'm new here, and I haven't asked my two brothers for their names yet." Zu An saluted. Since he doesn't have to be an enemy, he must of course have a better relationship. Maybe it will help with the next actions.
Seeing his humble attitude, Black and White Wuchang's expression softened. Bai Wuchang said with a smile: "We are Black and White Wuchang in the Netherworld. Every time someone dies in the underworld, we will go and bring his soul back. Entering the underworld. I just noticed a new ghost appeared. I originally wanted to take him into the underworld, but I didn't expect it to be you."
Zu An's heart moved, and it was indeed the same as in the legend: "Isn't this the underworld of the underworld?"
"Actually, it counts, but strictly speaking, you have to enter the ghost gate before you really enter the netherworld." Hei Wuchang explained.
"The Gate of Hell?" Zu An has heard many legends about the Gate of Hell. Even when people describe life and death crises, they will say that they have walked through the Gate of Hell. He never expected that he would really pass through the Gate of Hell this time.
"Well, there it is." Bai Wuchang pointed forward. Zu An looked up and saw a huge archway not far away.
This archway has four pillars, forming three doorways. There are ferocious sculptures carved in front of each pillar, which should be some strange beasts from the underworld.
Above the three doors, there are seven attics with undulating eaves and corners, but there are no real rooms in those attics.
Such archway styles can be seen everywhere in the world. The richer the family, the more imposing their archways are.
It’s just that the archway in front of you is so special, because the archways in the human world are often made of vermilion pillars, and sometimes they are even equipped with bright yellow glazed tiles.
But this archway is completely dark, so dark that it can chill one's soul.
The only thing with a different color is the plaque directly above which reads "Gate of the Underworld and the Gate of Hell" with seven large gold characters.
Zu An's head was trembling. He didn't expect the gate of **** to look like this.
At this time, he noticed two monsters standing on both sides of the ghost gate. Both were human, but one had a bull's head and the other had a horse's face.
"A bull's head and a horse's face?" Zu An was in a daze for a moment, and existences from some fairy tales in his previous life appeared one after another.
At this time, Black and White Wuchang explained beside him: "They guard the gates of ghosts. Sometimes some ghosts escape from the underworld, and they are responsible for capturing them. In addition, after the death of some powerful beings, the ghosts still remain. They have quite strong fighting power. In order to prevent them from causing trouble when they are led, the Bull-headed Horse-faced people are responsible for suppressing them."
Zu An was worried: "It sounds like the bull-headed horse-faced horse face is very powerful?"
"The fighting ability is indeed good." Hei Wuchang replied.
Bai Wuchang seemed to have guessed something, and added: "We brothers are not weaker than them. You must know that there are often very powerful beings in the world who are more difficult to deal with."
Zu Anxin thought that this guy was afraid that he would despise them, so he took the opportunity to compliment them both, which immediately made Black and White Wuchang particularly helpful.
Soon, the Bull-headed Horse Face also noticed them: "Hey, Black and White Impermanence, who is this? You two are so polite to him."
"This is our future colleague, the Forgotten River Ferryman. We sent him to take office." Bai Wuchang said proudly.
Hearing the Forgotten River Ferryman, the expression on the bull-headed horse-faced face suddenly changed. Zu An actually saw a hint of flattery on the ugly face: "It turns out that he is the new one. Hei Bai Wuchang and you are so busy at work. What's next? Just leave it to our brothers to send him there."
"It just so happens that I don't have much to do today. I'm sending Brother Zu off to his appointment. Your position of guarding the Ghost Gate is important, so I won't bother you." Hei Wuchang said with a dark face. Naturally, he already knew Zu An's name on the way.
Zu An originally wanted to give a false name, but he thought that the other party was specialized in seducing people's souls. If there was some secret method that could see people's names, it would offend them instead.
"It's not troublesome. Originally, these matters in Guimen Pass were under the control of our brothers." Niutou Mamian also came over, and he enthusiastically wanted to leave with Zu An.
"We have become familiar with Brother Zu along the way, so we can just take him," Bai Wuchang held the mourning stick with a smile on his face, "Brother Zu, right?"
The atmosphere in the field became tense for a moment, and the situation on both sides seemed to be on the verge of breaking out.
Zu An was naturally not able to refute Bai Wuchang's face, so after agreeing, he raised his hand in front of the bull-headed horse: "After I am familiar with everything in my position, I will come to meet Brother Niu and Brother Ma again to thank you for your warm welcome."
"Haha, we should be the ones to take care of you then." The smile returned to the face of the bull-headed horse.
I thought this guy was a good guy.
Black and White Wuchang also looked at him in surprise. It would be best not to have a head-on conflict with the Minotaur Horse Face. I didn't expect this kid to be quite capable.
After passing the gate of hell, Bai Wuchang suddenly smiled and said: "Brother Zu, you must be curious about why the bull-headed horse face is so enthusiastic towards you."
