Chapter 335: River of Forgetfulness
“No, Your Highness!”
Yun Guagua knelt down with a thud and hugged Chu Sihan’s thigh. He cried and shouted, “I’ve suffered a lot when I was human. Now that I’ve become a ghost, only playing mahjong can make me feel happier. You can’t take away my happiness!”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
A few female ghosts agreed.
Chu Sihan was speechless.
“Get lost.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind blew and the surroundings fell into silence.
The kneeling Yun Guagua and the female ghosts had disappeared.
This speed…
Lu Sheng’s lips twitched.
“Ignore them. Let’s go.”
Chu Sihan held her hand and continued walking.
The last time Lu Sheng came, she went straight to the Judgment Hall and left.
Hence, many places in the Netherworld were unfamiliar to her.
The way to the Water Palace was unfamiliar.
The Water Palace was not here, but on the other side of the River of Forgetfulness.
A row of bamboo rafts were parked at the sh.o.r.e of the River of Forgetfulness. An old man wearing a straw raincoat and a bamboo hat was holding a bamboo pole and waiting on the sh.o.r.e.
As Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan approached, the old man bowed to Chu Sihan.
“Greetings, Your Highness!”
Chu Sihan nodded slightly and led Lu Sheng onto the bamboo raft.
He said indifferently to the old man, “Water Palace.”
“Yes!”
The old man bowed slightly and boarded the bamboo raft with a bamboo pole.
The River of Forgetfulness was calm, but Lu Sheng felt a sense of oppression for no reason.
When she reached the middle of the River of Forgetfulness, she suddenly felt anxious.
“Calm down.”
Chu Sihan s.h.i.+elded her in his arms and advised softly.
Lu Sheng took a few deep breaths and barely suppressed her anxiousness.
She frowned slightly. “Lord, what happened?”
The boatman smiled and said, “Miss, you’re human, but you can go to the River of Forgetfulness. The things under the river are naturally unhappy.”
Lu Sheng had long heard from her master that there were two other scary things at the bottom of the River of Forgetfulness besides evil ghosts and insects. They were Copper Snake and Iron Dog.
There was also a rumor that there shouldn’t be any pa.s.sengers on the River of Forgetfulness.
Although Chu Sihan was present, she was indeed a guest. Moreover, she was human.
This might be a disgrace to the things below.
“Don’t worry. With me around, they won’t dare to act rashly.”
As Chu Sihan spoke, his red eyes looked into the river. Other than a warning, there was an undeniable murderous aura.
At the bottom of the river, something that had just poked its head out silently returned to the water.
Everyone in the River of Forgetfulness would know how scary Chu Sihan was.
Back then, in order to experience the calamity of love in the human world, he had gone to the River of Forgetfulness. The two tyrants in the river, which were the legendary Bronze Snake and Iron Dog, wanted to put him in his place. In the end, they were beaten up by Chu Sihan and had escaped.
They rested at the River of Forgetfulness for a hundred years before finally recovering.
Ever since then, no one in the River of Forgetfulness dared to provoke Chu Sihan.
The reason why they appeared today was entirely because they sensed a human’s aura, causing them to neglect another terrifying aura.
Bronze Snake, who had sneaked back to the bottom of the River of Forgetfulness, heaved a sigh of relief.
If it had attacked that human girl just now, it would probably die now.
Seeing that even Bronze Snake had returned, the other insects and snakes who wanted to have a good meal decided to give up.
The inexplicable pressure disappeared and Lu Sheng relaxed.
She retreated from Chu Sihan’s arms and looked at the b.l.o.o.d.y yellow river water. She could smell something fishy.
