Chapter 100 Havoc in the Underworld
Xiaoyue's eyes looked at Huang Quan, and I looked at her with a blurry look, as if she was stunned. It seemed that she had a story.
However, one thing is not true.
How could she know what Huang Quan looked like thousands of years ago?
In an instant, I realized what it means to think carefully.
"Young man, drink a bowl of soup before leaving?" Suddenly, an old voice came over, as if talking to me.
When I saw that it was Meng Po.
I suddenly became interested and wanted to tease Meng Po, "Mother-in-law, what does this soup taste like?"
"No one knows the taste of Mengpo soup." Xiaoyue suddenly interrupted, "I forgot because I have drunk it."
After saying that, Xiaoyue came over and pulled me, and whispered: "If you don't drink, leave quickly. Be careful to treat you as a crime of hindering official affairs in the underworld!"
"I'll go, so serious?!" I was surprised and suddenly noticed that Xiaoyue brought her black cape up like a little witch.
"Nonsense, Meng Po is a civil servant in the underworld and a formal employee. Let's leave quickly!" Xiaoyue pulled me to the Naihe Bridge in a hurry. There were many ghosts on the bridge. Looking down from the bridge, there were red river lanterns floating on the underworld, dotted with this dark and stern yellow spring.
The Naihe Bridge is very long, and I feel like I have been walking for so long for a lifetime, let alone those ghosts who are nostalgic for the world.
"After crossing the Naihe Bridge, there is the real underworld ahead." Xiaoyue said happily.
I also began to look forward to what the real underworld looks like, will it be the dark and antique flavor of the underworld, or the supernatural and strange and terrifying scene?
But the facts are often just like that, and the slap is so loud.
After getting off the bridge, the skyscraper in front of me was eager to penetrate the ground and directly penetrate the living room. There were cars coming and going on the asphalt road. All kinds of ghosts were wearing different clothes. Some were running around the market with their bags, and some were talking and laughing on the phone. They were suits and ties, dresses and high heels. This was like a replica of the CBD area of Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou!
I was surprised that my chin was almost falling. Didn’t I expect the modernization process to be so fast? The underworld is so modern? Such a fashion?
What about the promised antique?! I wasn't it because I came to the wrong place, right?
"This... why are there so many people... Oh no, why are there so many ghosts?" I asked at these ghosts who came and went.
Xiaoyue looked at me strangely, "Don't you know yet?"
"What do you know?" Should I know? I know that the underworld is also similar to the human world? According to the situation, the storyteller in the sky bridge can still survive? People are counting on the weird Chinese style of the underworld to sell money to support their families!
"The medical level in the world is improving too fast, the average life expectancy is over 70s and 80s, and the mortality rate is too low. Now the world advocates only children, fewer eugenics, etc., and these ghosts cannot be reincarnated. If you want to reincarnate, you either have to get a lottery or wait. Or you can perform well and make an exception." Xiaoyue said as if you were told a story, "In short, there are too many monks and too little porridge, and there is not enough fetus, so there is no way. The underworld can only improve policies and apply for new spaces to give life to these ghosts who cannot be reincarnated."
"What about the eighteen levels of hell? Where is the King of Yama?" I asked.
"The Eighteenth Hell is a place for those ghosts who have done evil things. These are those who have never done anything bad in their lifetime. If they cannot be reborn, they can only stay in the underworld." Xiaoyue continued; "The underworld is much larger now than before. The land you are in the west of Huangquan Black Road, the Ghost Sermon Hall under the jurisdiction of King Qin Guang of the First Palace of Hell, and it is also the richest place in the underworld, equivalent to Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou on earth."
I nodded blankly, "I can see it."
"This place was originally served by King Yama, but that guy is too kind. He repeatedly avenged the wronged souls who died in vain and even let them return to the sun without authorization. He was almost angry by him, so he was demoted and transferred to guard the fifth hall for him." Xiaoyue's expression was a little angry. After saying that, he calmed down and returned to his former smile.
Actually, I still know about the Ten Halls of Yama. King Qin Guang of the first hall, King Chu Jiang of the second hall, Emperor Song of the third hall, King Wushi of the fourth hall, King Yama of the fifth hall, King Biancheng of the sixth hall, King Taishan of the seventh hall, King urban of the eighth hall, King Equality of the nineth hall, King Wheel-turning of the ten halls, King of the ten halls of Yama.
They guarded different regions and each performed their duties clearly. However, I heard about King Yama being exiled for the first time, which was quite interesting.
"King Qin Guang is responsible for managing the classics of life, life and death in the human world. His judge Cui is the number one person in the famous underworld, the one who takes the life and death book." Xiaoyue winked at me.
I suddenly realized, "Oh, that's why you brought me here. You are really not vague at all."
Xiaoyue snorted coldly and raised her chin, "What's this? I've said it. With me, there's no problem."
I was a little curious and couldn't help asking, "Since you are so confident, why is it 50% sure, not 10% sure?"
Xiaoyue was speechless for a moment, and was silent for a while, and said, "Because there have been rumors that Pluto is very naughty and is running around to inspect the underworld. If he accidentally caught him, it would be hard to say."
"It should...it shouldn't be so unlucky, right?" I said deceivingly.
Anyway, I have already reached this point, so I must never retreat. The dawn of victory is ahead!
"Hua Shuangyi, I'll ask you again, do you want to have a life and death book?" Xiaoyue suddenly asked me calmly and seriously with a gloomy face.
I was confused and it was all over this place. What can I say? Can I say that we don’t want it and walk back to the world to drink? I definitely can’t say that. Moreover, at the beginning, wasn’t this little aunt urging me to get the life and death book? Why has she asked me again now?
"Yes, or not?" Xiaoyue asked again.
"Of course," I answered with certainty.
Xiaoyue nodded, "Follow this road, you can see which building is the tallest and most luxurious, which is the Ghost Sentence Hall. If you don't understand, ask these ghosts. I'll leave first, come on!" Xiaoyue turned around and wanted to leave.
I quickly stopped me, "Hey hey, what are you doing? Did you agree to share the joys and sorrows? Did you agree to have any ideas about the book of life and death?"
Xiaoyue stopped and said coldly, "I can read things like Life and Death Book as long as I want. Compared to this, do you know that Yun Panxi is dead now?"
After hearing what she said, I calculated with my fingers, and as expected, Yun Panxi had already died.
But Xiaoyue didn't know Yun Panxi's birth date and horoscope. Even if she wanted to calculate, she couldn't figure it out. How could she know that Yun Panxi was dead?
"You are not in a clone now. Since I have decided to help you, I will definitely fulfill my promise." Xiaoyue said firmly, "Now you are responsible for the book of life and death, and I am responsible for going to the world to delay Yun Panxi's marriage. You still have about nine hours left to stay in the underworld. I try to delay until that time. What's left depends on Yun Panxi's fortune."
After saying that, Xiaoyue used the spell and disappeared in an instant.
It can be said that he is coming and going without a trace. What a profound spell, this little girl is definitely not simple!
After Xiaoyue left, I looked at my watch. It took nine hours and twenty-three minutes, and there was still plenty of time. I gritted my teeth and fought hard!
It took half an hour to touch the Ghost Judgment Hall. I was about to enter the door when I was stopped by the security guard at the door.
"What are you doing? Have you made an appointment?" the ghost security guard asked me.
I had to pretend to be a pure and harmless expression and explained: "I, I'm here to consult."
"The investment bank is at the intersection opposite the street, where there are government departments, idle ghosts, etc., and you can't enter without an appointment." The ghost security guard said seriously.
There are investment banks? There are investment banks in this underworld?! I'm going, it's too high-end!
"Well, I really won't let me in?" I asked again.
The ghost security guard shook his head expressionlessly.
Don’t let me in? Don’t let me in, I will take you away!
I quickly looked and took out the Qiankun bag that I used to collect ghosts, monsters and demons, and then patted the ghost security guard, "Brother, look what this is?"
Before the ghost security guard could react, he was taken in by my Qiankun bag. I made a hole and confirmed that no other ghosts saw it. Then he breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm sorry, I'll let you out in a while."
While no one is guarding me, I tiptoed into the legendary Ghost Judgment Hall, which was like the usual office buildings, with complete lighting and elevators. I was not afraid of surveillance. The surveillance in the living cannot see ghosts, so I didn’t believe that the surveillance in the ghost world could still see people, so I plucked up the courage to take out the Yin-Yang compass.
The so-called Yin-Yang compass is to measure good fortune, good fortune, ghosts and gods, and Feng Shui treasure land. I took out this and there will be ghosts wherever the pointer points. I will not be discovered if I walk around. I am really a clever ghost.
I was complacent and walked forward. Generally speaking, the life and death book must be something that Judge Cui kept holding, so the most urgent task was to find Judge Cui's office.
I couldn't take the elevator, otherwise I would be easily discovered. I walked quietly to the stairwell and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then I looked at the watch and there were still eight hours and thirty-two minutes. I was about to say that there was still plenty of time, but suddenly, the whole building sounded an alarm.
"Please be careful! Please be careful! There are invaders! There are invaders! Please stay calm and stick to your post! We have sent all ghost messengers to block the building and arrest it!"
I heard the sarcastic broadcaster speak, and my heart almost reached my throat. My mother, I was noticed as soon as I entered the tiger's den, so I had to pull out quickly!
Chapter completed!
