Chapter 422 Small Scene, Calm Down
The owner of these hairs was very alert; it detected the three of them as soon as they stepped into the area.
The ever-spreading strands of hair clearly targeted the three of them.
"Judging from their attitude, they don't seem to be trying to get rid of us. On the contrary, they seem eager to invite us over."
Cheng Feng looked at the large swathes of black hair that had begun to droop downwards with amusement and said.
"Maybe the owner of that hair is a beauty. Boss, you're so handsome, I might just kidnap you and make you my husband!"
Black Bear grinned and teased Cheng Feng.
Ah Ning, who was standing next to her, also saw large swathes of flowing black hair through the beam of the flashlight.
This strange thing made her very wary, so she didn't know whether to attack or turn and run.
"Mr. Qi, Boss Cheng, this is a matter of life and death, please make a decision quickly!"
As the hair drew closer and became clearer, Aning felt a physical discomfort; it was fine and thick.
If you were to crawl into a person's seven orifices, you'd probably turn into a hairy person instantly.
"New boss, in our line of work you need to have the composure to remain calm even if Mount Tai collapses before you. This is nothing compared to what's to come. Stay calm!"
Black Bear looked relaxed, showing no sense of urgency, even though the nearest strand of hair was less than three meters away from him.
After speaking, Hei Xiazi looked at Cheng Feng. After Cheng Feng nodded slightly, Hei Xiazi's lips curled up slightly.
He took a flare out of the backpack behind him.
It was then launched diagonally upwards.
The flare struck the thick hair as expected, instantly igniting it.
The three retreated a considerable distance to avoid the flames that were dripping down.
The firelight from the burning hair illuminated the space, revealing the situation to Aning.
The vast space was filled with exquisitely crafted long tables, on which were placed unknown objects resembling dried wood blocks in rustic pottery.
Each table was filled with strangely shaped zongzi (sticky rice dumplings), varying in size and shape, and covered in colorful fur.
Even the Saiyan transformation colors don't have as many colors as these rice dumplings.
"Wow~ So many old zongzi! This is a feast of zongzi!"
Black Bear pretended to gasp in shock, looking as if he was frightened.
Ah Ning rolled her eyes. Just a moment ago she was talking about Mount Tai collapsing, and now she's become part of the atmosphere group!
"In Chinese legend, the Queen Mother of the West resides in the Jade Pool and holds a grand banquet every hundred years, which is called the Jade Pool Banquet in Journey to the West."
Cheng Feng looked down at the horde of corpses that had begun to stir and spoke calmly.
"I think it would be more appropriate to call it the Corpse Banquet."
Hei Xiazi curled his lip. The truth behind myths and legends is often not what one would expect. In the end, this place is just a prison where the Queen Mother of the West imprisons mutated monsters.
"Look over there, it's Wu Sansheng and Wu Xie!"
At this moment, Ah Ning noticed the three unlucky ones standing out from the crowd among the rice dumplings, and quickly pointed downwards.
The three of them sat blankly at a dining table, sharing a meal with an old zongzi covered in red and green hair.
"Tsk tsk tsk, it has to be the Third Master and the Young Master of the Wu family. Their heads are on fire, but they're still sitting perfectly still!"
Black Bear said with admiration.
Little did they know that Wu Sansheng was cursing their ancestors for eight generations in his heart. The three of them were scurrying in and out of the narrow underground cracks like groundhogs.
After finally finding a spacious spot to rest, the rock beneath me collapsed shortly afterward.
When they landed, they found themselves in a narrow crevice.
As a result, the old zongzi held a feast at the end of the crack. Through exploration, they discovered that any movement or noise would make the zongzi intend to attack.
Only by sitting quietly at the table can the zongzi remain still.
The most terrifying thing is that its head is covered with black hair, and there is an unknown monster moving among these hairs.
All of this meant they could only remain as mere ornaments for now, waiting for Wu Sansheng to come and figure out a way to escape.
Before they could even come up with a solution, a flare that set their hair ablaze was launched.
Seeing the flames rapidly spreading towards their heads, the three were extremely anxious and wanted to turn and run, but they were afraid that the rice dumplings next to them would suddenly burst into flames.
"What are we going to do, Uncle? If we don't think of something soon, the rice dumplings will either kill us or turn us into barbecue!"
At this critical moment, Wu Xie couldn't care less about the rice dumplings and hurriedly whispered to Wu Sansheng, "What do you want to ask me?"
"These two bastards are really causing a lot of harm. Relying on their abnormal abilities, they act recklessly everywhere."
Wu Sansheng cursed viciously, then suddenly pulled up his two nephews beside him.
"Quick, run towards them, and be careful to avoid the flames."
Wu Xie and Xie Yuchen dared not hesitate and immediately set off, running desperately with Wu Sansheng towards the direction where Cheng Feng and the other two were.
The moment they left their seats, almost all the old zombies stirred; they slowly stood up, their hairy heads turning slowly.
He looked at the three people running wildly.
As she ran, Xiaohua lightly tapped Wuxie's arm, then gestured for Wuxie to look at Cheng Feng and the other two.
Wu Xie instantly realized what was happening, and then shouted without the slightest embarrassment:
"Uncle Cheng, help!"
At this moment, Cheng Feng and Hei Xiazi stood side by side on the edge of the platform, looking down at the three people who almost lost their shoes while running.
Ah Ning lagged half a body length behind Cheng Feng, blinked her big eyes a few times as she watched the three of them in their perilous situation, and didn't say anything rash.
She knew that Wu Sansheng and Cheng Feng were rivals in love, and saying anything carelessly now would lower her favorability rating.
"The thing deep inside seems to be getting restless."
Hei Xiazi looked towards the end of the banquet, where strands of hair hung down like vines in a jungle.
Nine stone chairs were tied with strands of hair and suspended in mid-air. Six of the chairs were occupied by humanoid monsters whose appearance was different from that of ordinary old zombies.
On the innermost side, a colossal, spider-like creature covered a large area, with its black, waterfall-like hair writhing within view.
"What exactly is that thing?"
Ah Ning tried hard to see what the terrifying figure at the end of the banquet was, but the shadowy hair made it impossible for her to make out anything.
"According to the records of Bon religion, it should be the master of this feast of corpses, 'King Yama,' and there will be a ghost woman wandering outside."
As he spoke, Hei Xiazi raised his head, gesturing for Aning to look upwards.
Ah Ning looked up, and her pupils contracted sharply. From within the thick black hair, a pale woman's face slowly emerged.
Moreover, it was following closely above the three running people at an extremely fast speed.
Wu Sansheng had also noticed the pale, unadorned face of the woman above him, and every step he took was now incredibly agonizing.
But he was helpless at this point, because the men around him had already started to move.
"careful!"
Wu Sansheng shouted, dodging a hairy black arm before shoving Wu Xie.
Wu Xie stumbled and dodged the red-haired old monster who resembled someone from JD.com.
"If you want to live, eat the 'food' on the table; it's good stuff."
Even though they were some distance apart, Cheng Feng's words were still clearly heard by the three of them.
