Chapter 4, The Land of the Dead
This is a living dragon
Whether it is the joints of the hands and feet or the soft cavity of the abdomen, the pain is maddening.
He Ruo Zhi felt as if nearly all the bones in his body had been broken.
He Ruo-zhi, who has grown up in such a hellish existence, takes "remain unperturbed" as his motto and "steadfast as Mount Tai" as his life guide; always prepared to face even more unfortunate events, this is his bold declaration
Wuwu... all, all are illusions, they cannot scare me!" He Ruozhi shouted loudly
"Humans are quite delicious, what a pity..."
He Ruo Zhi finally stood up unsteadily
It seems to be stained red with blood
It is unclear how much time has passed, but He Ruozhi finally has the strength to open his eyes. He notices that the soil beneath him is actually purple, resembling...
Muni said: "However, this is not acceptable; it is related to the reincarnation of this human and the Empress"
While squatting in the restroom, unexpectedly, a bucket of cold water was suddenly poured down from above. Is this not a frightening experience
The skeletal dragon said somewhat dejectedly, then slowly lay down on the ground, the ghostly fire in its eyes disappearing once again, and it fell asleep.
Muni slightly nodded and bowed gracefully, saying: "This is the domain of the Dark Queen, the deepest city of shadows, guarded by the loyal army of the undead"
What place is this? He Ruo Zhi boldly asked. The words spoken by the other party were similar to English, but with many complex variations, and there were many phrases he could not quite understand, though he could manage to communicate.
This is impossible; how can there be an animal that is nothing but a skeleton yet still "alive"!
"It is all over, there is no turning back!" He Ruo Zhi cried out in despair
As the enormous mouth of the bone dragon drew closer, He Ruozhi had already closed his eyes, awaiting death. At that moment, a voice that was both elegant and gentle suddenly sounded from behind him:
He Ruo Zhi was not originally a person of strong character, and at that moment, regardless of whether anyone was watching, he could not help but burst into tears
A purple haze floats in the sky, completely obscuring the sunlight. The black hole that appeared seems merely like a tiny pinhole, and it is gradually shrinking.
Indeed! He Ruo Zhi felt extremely wronged, "I also do not understand why I ended up here!"
Mingming stood up to answer the teacher's question, but after sitting down, he found that the chair was covered in strong adhesive. As a result, he had no choice but to carry the entire chair home. How bizarre this situation is!
On the valley to his left, there lay a gigantic skeletal dragon, appearing to be as large as an ancient Tyrannosaurus rex
He raised his head to the sky, filled with a mix of regret and sorrow
In the valley filled with jagged rocks, there is not a single tree, and it appears that there are no traces of any animals. On the horizon stands a massive, withered tree, resembling one that has been struck by lightning, revealing only a black silhouette.
Alas, it is all because I did not wish to be a good person that I provoked that underworld boss. If it were not for this, how could I have ended up in such a predicament
Muni raised a finger, his hand adorned with deep black leather gloves, his entire body revealing not a trace of skin: "There is only one possibility. The Land of the Dead is a spiritual realm constructed from intense resentment. Unless you are a man with a truly terrifying grudge, which attracts the resonance of the Dark Valley, drawing you here. I can perform a small spell to determine how much resentment is stored within you, which is necessary for this incredible and wondrous event to occur."

Wait a moment, Geralt
Approximately ten thousand corpses of human soldiers lay at the narrow entrance of the valley, their blood converging into a purple river that gradually submerged the land, while the cold winds carried the souls of the soldiers, emitting desperate wails
At that moment, he felt the "walls" around him suddenly come to life, as the neck of the skull dragon bizarrely straightened, and a dark red ghostly flame ignited within its skull
When He Ruozhi cast his gaze to the left, no matter how steady he was, he could not help but shout out loud
However, phrases like "AB you CD" are quite safe, ensuring that others are left completely baffled.
A Gothic castle stands beside the tree, appearing to be on the verge of collapse
This is a unique profanity created by He Ruozhi, as curses such as "damn it, grandmother bear, fuck Mallegbete" can lead to a beating if heard by others.
The bone dragon opened its mouth in great dissatisfaction: "Fresh food... I haven't had such fresh food in five thousand years! Muny!"
Damn, I AB you CD! Why do you have to treat me like this? Even if I die, let me die without any pain at all!
In order to dispel fear, He Ruozhi laughed heartily, turning around while supporting himself against the thigh of the skeletal dragon, surveying the area beyond the valley.
He Ruo's legs went weak, and he fell to the ground with a thud, his teeth chattering uncontrollably
Is there a mistake
Upon hearing the term "Empress," even a formidable being like the skeletal dragon could not help but submit. It maliciously crouched before He Ruozhi, extending a green ghostly flame from its mouth, which flickered like a tongue, licking over He Ruozhi's body.
On his birthday, Dad gave him a brand new mini camera, but the very next day, it was extorted by a classmate and used to secretly film in the girls' restroom. In the end, it turned out to be He Ruozhi's responsibility, since the camera belonged to him. As a result, for three years in high school, no woman was willing to speak to him. How terrifying could such a thing be
Muni smiled and said: "This place is the intermediate zone connecting life and death. Unless one has mastered advanced necromancy, it is extremely difficult to enter and exit easily. Therefore, I am quite curious as to how an ordinary person like you could enter this place"
He does not understand what has happened, but it must always be something very frightening, very strange, and very terrifying. However, such things have already happened to him far too many times.
However, after circling around the bone dragon, he was certain that this was definitely not a fossil, as fossils could not be preserved so perfectly. Moreover, the overwhelming majesty displayed by the skeleton made it impossible to ignore its existence
If He Ruo Zhi clearly saw the other person's teeth, even the smallest tooth would be thicker than his thigh
Then he saw the corpses scattered all over the ground
Fossils? What if wisdom murmurs to itself
I ABCDEFG ah! He Ruo Zhi was so frightened that he cursed loudly, turning over in one breath, and inevitably felt another wave of excruciating pain, causing him to cry out for his father and mother, repeatedly calling for his mom
The closely-knit bones glimmer, smeared with traces of fresh blood, appearing so hideous and terrifying
He took two heavy breaths and realized that he was in a narrow valley.
Ah... a food! The bone dragon yawned, and a strong wind blew out from its mouth, sending He Ruozhi tumbling over.
He Ruo Zhi opened his mouth wide, his facial expression rich and varied: "This, this... I'm sorry, I really don't understand what happened, you know, today is Valentine's Day... I had a bit to drink, and I'm still a little dizzy, this, this, may I ask where the exit is?"
He Ruo Zhi finally caught his breath, turning around with tears in his eyes. Mu Ni was completely enveloped in a gray robe, with even his face buried deep in darkness
He Ruo's mind surged with an utterly absurd thought
