Chapter 1270: To Live A Long Life Is to Be a Thief

Ye Fusheng lowered his head and saw a siheyuan courtyard below. In the courtyard stood an old woman, not tall and slightly hunched over, waving her hand. She was clearly beckoning him to go down and take cover.

Ye Fusheng pondered for a moment, but still decided to go down. After all, in any dimension, stepping into the void was strictly prohibited. In Daxia, no one dared to step into the void lightly.

Of course, the main thing is to run forward, not knowing when you can reach the end, which will attract ghosts.

While they haven't caught up yet, hiding at the old woman's house might be an option.

Fall quickly.

"Advanced House, go in..."

The old woman pointed to the room.

Ye Fu Sheng quickly entered the room, and there was a very important point: in the entire Fengdu, besides the Ghost Emperor and the Great Emperor, everyone else could only be called a trouble, not a threat.

If one doesn't wish to create unnecessary trouble, why not make a move

Ye Fu Sheng stood by the window, peering through the cracks. After just a dozen or so breaths, he heard a dense throng of footsteps outside, and two figures floated forward in the air.

They were clearly lost.

"Where did it go"

"The spot where it just disappeared is right in this area."

"It must be within a radius of thirty zhang!"

They saw Ye Fu Sheng fall, but because the distance was too far, they couldn't determine his exact location, only that he was in this area.

The man floating in the air bowed his head and said, “Old thing, about ten breaths ago, did you see a mud-legged man walk on air”

The old woman raised her head: “Was it a young man He passed by, very fast, running south the whole time.”

"Chase!"

"Catch him!"

These people, suspecting nothing, quickly chased after him to the south.

……

Ye Fusheng let out a slight breath and, to be honest, he didn't believe this old woman. He was already prepared to strike. The reason was simple: just now, he saw hundreds of faces, but none of them showed kindness. It chilled him a bit.

The door creaked open, and an elderly woman walked in.

He smiled and said, "Child, there's no need to be afraid. They have already chased after them. Just wait here for a bit, and you will be completely safe very soon."

Child

When Ye Fusheng heard these two words, a strange warmth filled his heart.

He clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Mother-in-law. I'm sorry to trouble you. I might really need to hide here for a while..."

On one hand, it takes roughly two hours to walk to the judgment hall.

We still have plenty of time, and the demonic energy won't explode.

On the other hand, all the buildings from here to the Hall of Judgement are consistent. If I'm not mistaken, they are all called Changsheng Town. Here, I feel like an outsider. Even if I escape those pursuing me, I can't guarantee that no one else will cause trouble. I need to calm down and think of a solution.

"It's fine, you don't have to hide, just stay here."

"There's only me, the old woman, left in this courtyard. It's absolutely safe."

The old woman's face was full of kindness: "Are you hungry I can make some food for you"

The soul body also needs to eat, and it is normal food, no different from that of mortals. But if the food from the Underworld were placed in the mortal world, it would be completely different from mortal food, and even invisible.

Simply put, the food in Fengdu is similar to the soul of mortal cuisine, but it's called essence/qi.

Of course, one can also abstain from eating and maintain oneself through meditation.

No trouble at all.

Ye Fu Sheng responded quickly, pondering for a moment before saying, "Elderly woman, if it's convenient, could I ask you a few questions"

I still have many questions and need to get them off my chest.

The old woman walked over and sat down in a chair. "Child, you sit too. Ask if you have any questions,"

Ye Fu Sheng sat to the other side and directly asked, "Why are the people here so hostile towards me I'm just passing through, yet they deliberately make things difficult for me. I haven't offended anyone, yet they all glare at me with murderous intent. It's really baffling."

The old woman sighed: “It seems you’ve just arrived in the Underworld. Do you know what it’s called”

Ye Fusheng said, "I just learned that this place is called Changsheng Town."

The old woman nodded: "In Fengdu, there's never been a saying of immortality. There are only two paths: reincarnation and nothingness. But one can extend the time spent in reincarnation, and the way is very simple – just be remembered by later generations."

In Changsheng Town, the residents are all heads of prominent families or individuals who have made significant contributions. Their name tablets and portraits are enshrined in ancestral halls, figures who have benefited from the incense offered by generations and are remembered by posterity.

“You…looking at your state, you should be a dead man, right”

Ye Fusheng grinned and nodded, indicating that he agreed.

The old woman said more directly: "So, the gap is too big, even bigger than the difference between people. Let me give you the simplest example, if you see an ant, swaggering in front of you, would you think it's one of your kind"

Ye Fusheng was stunned. This explanation was truly astounding. The gap between people could even reach across species

But I quickly figured it out. The cast and crew of Changsheng Town are all "Changsheng" people. Not only were they prominent in life, knowing that they are still worshipped by their descendants today, but in front of ordinary souls, they are almost invincible.

The difference between cultivators and ordinary people!

"But their eyes..."

Ye Fusheng still didn't understand this. He organized his thoughts before asking, "Mother-in-law, don't take offense to my words. In the eyes of ordinary people, even if they come to Fengdu, they should still resemble their mortal personalities. According to what you said, even if mortals despise ants as insignificant creatures, they wouldn't kill all ants just because one bit them."

And those people in Changsheng Town relentlessly pursued me, their eyes and movements devoid of humanity. They were no longer souls but something else entirely.

This is the most perplexing thing about him!

Except for her mother-in-law, everyone was shouting and clamoring to fight, with no one showing any sympathy.

A trace of sadness flashed in the old woman's eyes, followed by a wry smile: "I've already answered you. This place is called Changsheng Town. At first, everyone here was very friendly, kind, and helpful."

But you can think, a person lived for ten years, being kind to others, living for a hundred years, being kind to others, living for hundreds of years, everything in the underworld has gone through dozens or hundreds of times. What would he become

Without waiting for Ye Fusheng's reply.

The old woman spoke up first, "I'm numb. Numb to everything. I no longer experience joy, sorrow, anger, or sadness. There's only this dull numbness within me as I continue to drift through this underworld of the dead. I don't even know how many more years there are left…"

Hearing this.

Ye Fu Sheng's face contorted with a myriad of expressions as he suddenly understood. In the mortal world, there was a saying: "All hobbies that become work are painful."

But in Fengdu, no, it should be in Changsheng Town, these people living are just painful!

Whatever one does, whatever one does, has already been done for hundreds of years, repeated countless times.

It's no wonder they're so fierce.

Because for them, their appearance was a near-miraculous variable in their solidified lives!

Ye Fusheng quickly retracted his understanding, his face turned ugly, and he said in a low voice: "To live long is to be a thief!"u of course can't walk out of here. This is a stone prison, used to exile those unruly beasts. Without a waist token, the path here will only lead further and further astray, disappearing into despair...
