Chapter 647: Is it the countryside or the suburbs?
Without much thought, Ivy wiped it again with a wet tissue until she was sure it was completely clean, and then she stopped working.
But just as she was about to get up, red stains appeared on Wennie's name again, as if someone was continuously bleeding.
Ivy took more paper towels and wiped, but the more she wiped, the more red appeared, creating a very eerie scene.
Ivy suddenly felt anxious. The black letters kept oozing red liquid. What on earth was happening?
Alexander saw Ivy's hands covered in blood and anxiously grabbed her hand. "Ivy, are you hurt? Be careful!"
He immediately used the energy from the Tiger's Magic Pearl to heal Ivy's injuries.
However, Ivy pulled her hand back and pointed at the tombstone. "I am not injured. Look at the name on the tombstone, it keeps bleeding..."
Alexander and the pilot looked over and saw the black name releasing red liquid. Their eyes widened.
"Could it be that the old lady encountered danger in the underworld?" Ivy panicked.
"Alexander, where is the entrance to this grave? Let's go in and take a look!"
Alexander circled around the grave but couldn't find the entrance. Helplessly, he said, "The entrance to the underworld can only be opened by the people over there. We don't know where it is and cannot open it."
The pilot, feeling bold, suggested, "Then... shall we dig... dig the grave?"
At this moment, a third of the joss paper had already burned, with more than half still untouched.
Everyone found it eerie that the unburned joss paper suddenly seeped into the ground.
Alexander looked at where the joss paper disappeared and quickly said, "This must be the entrance. I'll go check the situation!"
After saying that, he struck the ground with his palm.
Suddenly, a large hole appeared in front of the grave, emitting a blue light.
Without hesitation, Alexander and Ivy held hands and jumped into the hole together.
The pilot, seeing all this, felt fear in his eyes.
He really wanted to find a place to hide, but the surroundings were all graves. There was no safe place to hide.
Since Alexander and Ivy were so powerful, he decided to follow them.
With this thought, the pilot also jumped into the hole, embarking on a fantastic journey through the underworld.
Underground.
Alexander and Ivy were surprised to see the pilot follow them.
"Oh, you've become braver!" Ivy said.
The pilot nervously hugged himself. "I-I-I... I'm just afraid of being alone up there, it's not safe."
Alexander pointed at the pilot. "No fainting allowed, understood? If you faint, I'll fire you!"
"I-I'll... I promise not to faint..." The pilot made an unconfident promise.
They didn't know if this was the impoverished area of the underworld. There were no streets, no ancient houses, and no flowers and plants. There were only a few straw huts scattered sparsely.
Ivy curiously asked, "Alexander, does the underworld also have cities and countryside? I wonder if this place is... the countryside or the suburbs?"
Alexander hadn't had a chance to answer yet.
From the thatched cottage not far away came the sound of a whip cracking.
"Smack... smack..."
Two lashes were struck, followed by the deep, rugged voice of a man.
"Hurry up and work! What's with the dawdling? Do you plan to drag out this small amount of work indefinitely?"
A feeble, aged voice pleaded, "I... I've been working day and night for over forty years, I'm really exhausted... Can I take a rest? Just a sip of water would suffice...
