Xu Huxiao followed the guidance of Ghost Tiger and looked into the entrance of the cave. From this look, even his adult mind felt a little uncomfortable and his face looked ugly.
Because everywhere you look here are dead people.
Dead people piled up like garbage!
At this time, Hu Liena also came closer and took a look inside Corpse Cavern. Just one glance made Hu Liena feel chilled all over. Cold sweat broke out in the palms of her delicate jade-like hands, and she squeezed them nervously at her side unconsciously, but she still tried hard to restrain herself and not let this fear show up.
A feeling of stomach cramps appeared again. Hu Liena quickly turned away and took a few deep breaths to calm down.
But the air she breathed here was filled with an unpleasant stench, and there was also the buzzing of flies, constantly reminding her of the disgusting scene she had just seen.
Ugh!
Hu Liena tried his best to control it, but still vomited it out. The contents of his stomach had been vomited before. This time he just vomited some acidic water, and then he retched continuously.
It's not surprising that Hu Liena reacted like this. You must know that Hu Liena is now the same age as Xu Huxiao, only nine years old. Faced with the bloody and strange Black Prison, as well as the invisible invasion of withering and death, it is already remarkable that he can suppress his own fear.
When the three supervisors saw the two people's reactions, their eyes showed pride.
Ghost Tiger said excitedly, "You two, isn't it spectacular? There are men, women, old and young, tall, short, fat and thin. Your job is to carry the corpses, pick out the ones that are about to rot, and then send them to 'Water Room'. Remember to only pick out the ones that are about to rot, and keep the fresh ones in the cave."
Originally, this work was done by dedicated corpse carriers, but since Black Prison has not seen the light of day, it is not up to the three Gui Family brothers to decide how to manage it.
Carrying a corpse?
Xu Huxiao looked at the corpse-carrying sign-in sheet hanging on the side wall and said, "There seems to be a dedicated person doing this kind of work. Isn't it the task of us executioners?"
Ghost Rat rolled his eyes and explained, "Your Highness has good eyesight. Corpse Cavern There are indeed dedicated people to do the work here, but the problem is that there are not enough people now, so the executioner must be on top."
"And if something goes wrong here, it will affect the operation of the entire Black Prison."
Xu Huxiao was a little surprised. "Oh? It affects the operation of Black Prison. What does this mean?"
Ghost Rat twirled his long beard and said, "This brings us to our final destination 'Water Room'. I will explain to His Highness when we get there."
At this time, Ghost Tiger said, "This corpse will also be your assessment task this month. I wonder what you two think?"
"It's okay."
When he said this, there was no unnecessary expression on Xu Huxiao's face. He supported Hu Liena, who looked a little pale. The girl's palms were wet with cold sweat, and her body trembled from time to time.
"Brother, I don't know what's going on. I feel so cold."
Xu Huxiao looked at the surroundings that were about to condense into substantial dark death energy. This death energy was attracted by the life energy in living people and was constantly drilling into their bodies.
But because Xu Huxiao has Yang Origin Soul Power refined by Nine Yang Divine Skill, and has also awakened the ultimate masculine attribute, as soon as the death energy enters his body, it is immediately refined and decomposed by Yang Origin Soul Power, and cannot harm him at all.
And Hu Liena itself is Control-Type Soul Master, so his physique is not strong, and he has no special Soul Power body protection, so he is naturally affected by this rich dark death energy.
Ghost Fox saw that the two people noticed the specialness of Black Prison and said, "Your Highnesses, don't worry. This is the normal reaction of all Soul Master to Black Prison. Only Soul Sage and above can not be affected. Even Ghost Rat and I cannot avoid it."
"We are going to Water Room next. The things produced there can resolve the discomfort in the two bodies caused by the invasion of death energy."
Ghost Fox did not see that Xu Huxiao was not affected, he just thought that the elder's son was trying to hold on.
After all, he had personally experienced the invasion of death energy here.
At this time, Hu Liena was already half-relying on Xu Huxiao. The deathly chill in her body was freezing her blood, and she no longer had much strength to stand alone.
Seeing this situation, Xu Huxiao said anxiously, "Why don't you lead the way and go to Water Room immediately!"
Hearing the anxiety in Xu Huxiao's mouth, Ghost Fox didn't care about the bossy tone and said with a smile:
"Yes, let's go now, you two come with us."
The more anxious these two people are, the more Ghost Fox feels they are in control, because the precursor to fear is panic and anxiety.
Moreover, Water Room also has a "big surprise" waiting for them.
Once these two people are completely immersed in fear, in order to pass the assessment, they will naturally obey their words.
But what Ghost Fox and the other two supervisors didn't know was that when they turned their heads to lead the way, Xu Huxiao, who was lagging behind, had only a calm look in his eyes, without any trace of anxiety or panic.
The palm of his hand holding Hu Liena's vest was filled with a faint golden light. Under the transmission of Yang Origin Soul Power, the coldness of death in the girl's body was instantly dissolved into nothingness.
Hu Liena felt the warmth coming from the vest. This warmth enveloped her like sunshine, and the discomfort and coldness in her body completely disappeared!
She looked up in surprise at the handsome face so close to her, "Senior brother?"
Didn't the deputy superintendent say that something in Water Room is needed to eliminate discomfort in the body?
And the Soul Power that the senior brother crossed over was directly eliminated?!
Xu Huxiao smiled, looked at this persistent and brave girl and said, "Nana, don't worry, I will take care of everything."
Just one sentence made Hu Liena dispel all the fear in her heart. She felt that there seemed to be infinite power in her body. Even when she walked in the dark corridor of purgatory and listened to the various painful wails and moans of the prisoners, she was not afraid at all.
"Hmm."
After moaning twice, Hu Liena felt at ease enjoying the warmth of Xu Huxiao's strong arms.
After bypassing the long corridor again, we finally came to a hall, which seemed to be the canteen of First Layer of Purgatory. There were dining seats neatly arranged in the hall. At a glance, there were no less than hundreds.
However, since it's not yet meal time in the prison, the place is still empty.
Ghost Tiger The three of them did not go to the cafeteria hall, but pushed open an iron door and entered a place similar to the kitchen.
Xu Huxiao Through a window in the corridor, I saw the chef inside wearing a mask and preparing food in full swing. Seeing the supervisor passing by, all the chefs stopped to say hello.
Ghost Tiger After waving his hand, he continued walking along this dark corridor.
About three hundred meters later, a light blue light appeared in front, and at the same time a fragrance floated, which made people feel refreshed.
After a while, Xu Huxiao saw the true appearance of these blue lights. After going through the long corridor, what appeared in front of them was a blue warehouse no smaller than the cafeteria hall outside.
There are rows of iron cages here, which contain a kind of giant snail that emits a faint blue light.
And the food of this kind of snail is corpses that have rotted so much that only the human shape can be vaguely seen!
Without Ghost Rat explaining it, Xu Huxiao looked at the snail as big as a puppy, Eye of Omniscience started, and got its information in three seconds.
[Soul Beast]: Snotwater Snail
[Years]: twenty-two years
[Talent ability]: 1. Snot Jelly; 2. Snotwater
[Way to Death]: Shit eater! You don't want to eat this snail's excrement, right? Such a disgusting Soul Beast has a way to die!
Soul Beast?
Then Xu Huxiao glanced at all the iron frames around him, and pieces of age information kept appearing in front of him.
All of them are ten years old, and none of them are older than Hundred-Year. No wonder they can be kept in captivity!
At the same time, Xu Huxiao also explored the information about the talent ability of Snotwater Snail. From this look, he seemed to understand what Ghost Fox meant by affecting the operation of Black Prison.
[Snot Jelly]: Snotwater Snail is a scavenger Soul Beast. The Snot Jelly excreted by it has the effects of resolving dead energy, detoxifying and weakly enhancing physical fitness. Snotwater Snail The higher the energy of, the higher the energy of decayed matter, the faster its excretion. However, consuming too much Snot Jelly will cause the side effect of being unable to summon Martial Soul. The side effects will be resolved one month after stopping consumption.
[Snotwater]: The mucus excreted by Snotwater Snail has a watery odor. After application, it has a certain purification and anti-virus effect.
It turns out that the invasion of withering and dead energy in Black Prison is like a chronic toxin that will greatly affect the lifespan of prisoners. The excrement of scavenging water snails just resolves this effect, and its side effects are actually a great advantage for a place like a prison.
Regardless of whether there is Soul Power, humans with Martial Soul are inherently high-energy substances. Such rotting corpses or residual limbs are just the best food for raising Snotwater Snail.
In this way, this Snotwater Snail and the dead Black Prison form a virtuous circle of mutual benefit.
Thinking of this, Xu Huxiao felt for the first time that on this road, the relationship between Soul Beast and Soul Master seemed to be more complicated than hunting alone.
Ghost Rat picked up a Snotwater Snail and introduced it. The information it revealed was the same as what Xu Huxiao Eye of Omniscience saw.
After the introduction, Ghost Fox took out two balls of yellow-green transparent gelatinous substance from the iron stand and handed them to Hu Liena and Xu Huxiao. A high-pitched voice sounded:
"Your Highnesses, this is Snot Jelly produced by Snotwater Snail. It is also what Black Prison prisoners must eat every day. Eating it can eliminate the negative effects caused by the invasion of death energy. Eat it quickly, it is still fresh and hot."
The cold and rotting corpse was transformed into sticky and watery excrement. This scene is like a starving ghost without any appetite.
Hu Liena didn't reach out, Xu Huxiao took the two balls of jelly, but there was no entrance.
"There's no rush. My junior sister is feeling better now. Let the three supervisors finish introducing our tasks first."
Seeing that the two of them were afraid to eat, Ghost Fox raised the corners of his mouth, and the scars crossing his face were forced to form a twisted arc, and he looked at Ghost Tiger.
The disdain in Ghost Tiger's eyes became even thicker, and a breath came out of his nose, and he said:
"Interrogation hall, prison, punishment room, Corpse Cavern, cafeteria, Water Room, this is all we Black Prison have. Although the three levels of purgatory below - lava, ice, and silence - have different environments, they have the same structure."
"Your tasks are to carry out executions, clean up and move corpses. There is a shortcut between Water Room and Corpse Cavern. When you move corpses, go that way. Don't take the road we took today."
Ghost Tiger's cracked lips exposed white teeth, as bright as a beast. He took out a ball of yellow-green steaming Snot Jelly from the iron stand, threw it directly into his mouth, chewed it, and said:
"After all, the prisoners may vaguely know the origin of this Snot Jelly, but if they see it with their own eyes, these brave Little Ghosts will inevitably be unable to bear it."
"You two agree, right?"
The look in Ghost Tiger's eyes and movements almost made him write a sentence on his face: 'You can't bear even this little pain, you really embarrass my incomparable His Holiness the Pope!'
Xu Huxiao feels that this Ghost Tiger supervisor is not only a little perverted, but also gives people a vague feeling that he is not smart. Is it because he has stayed in this dark Black Prison for a long time?
The mustache Ghost Rat is shrewd, the scar face Ghost Fox is treacherous, and the red beard Ghost Tiger is domineering. The three of them are the three local snakes entrenched in Black Prison, and the biggest characteristic of the local snakes is one word:
Greed.
Combined with the behavior of the three people who were sometimes humble and sometimes disdainful of arrogance along the way, Xu Huxiao already had something to worry about.
"Ghost Tiger Supervisor is right, junior sister and I will remember it."
Ghost Tiger sneered, "Just remember it. Come out with me and try Black Prison's first meal. After eating, you can start working."
The words fell to the ground, and three bells echoed in Black Prison.
Ding dong!
Ding dong!
Ding ding dong!
