Since ancient mythology, outside the human world, there is another realm, with a yin official, called the underworld, also known as the underworld or hell, which is in charge of the souls of living creatures in the yang world after death.

In the underworld, the space is dim with forest green, and the whole world is not illuminated by sunlight, and if you look closely, you can find that some of the light emitted in this world rises from the cracks in the earth's surface, and some are refracted from a distance.

Looking down from a higher place, it can be found that the so-called underworld is not at all a sphere like an ordinary planet, but an endless plane, with no sense of direction or spatial latitude.

There are many towering mountains on the surface, many of which are covered with lava cracks on the surface, and there are many vegetation on the mountains, but they are all black, the trunks are black, and the leaves are also black.

In the distance, you can hear the sound of nothingness, some crying softly, some laughing wildly, and more soul-stirring whining.

If you look closely, you can also see a lot of translucent bodies that appear and disappear from time to time, or human shapes, or other shapes, these are soul bodies, and most of them are "new souls" who have just entered the underworld to "report".

There are humans, there are animals, and there are many creatures that cannot be judged by the outline.

The ushers are the highest-ranking yin officials in the underworld, because the souls of all living people and living creatures in the yang world will be automatically sucked into the underworld as soon as they die, and they will report to the usher.

The usher has many names in the yang world, and the most popular name is the bull head horse face.

The bull head and horse face are not false, but it is by no means completely correct, there are indeed many Yin officials in the underworld who are officials after the death of livestock, cattle and horses, but that is the lowest Yin difference, and they cannot directly sit in the position of the guide officer, and the real guide is almost all ghost cultivators who can serve as Taoists.

There are a total of 999 passes scattered in the underworld, and they are opened once a year on the 15th day of July, and all of them are also called ghost gates.

Having 999 passes also means having 999 ushers, and each ghost gate pass has a usher.

And each ushersman is in charge of at least a thousand shadows.

In the underworld, there is no difference between day and night, and there is no sense of loss of time, because in the world of the underworld, this scene is every moment, and the sun and moon cannot be felt, but in order to distinguish the time and the yang world, the same time and hour division.

In addition to the guide and the yin, there is also a special profession called the little judge, and the little judge is the same level as the guide officer.

In the Ghost Gate, most of the time the ushers are cultivating or doing their own things, unless they encounter an emergency, just like the turmoil when the remnant soul escaped from the underworld half a year ago, he will personally dispatch.

The little magistrate is always at the gate, making arrangements for the registration of every ghost extradited by the shadow.

In other words, the usher is more of a deterrent, and the junior judge is the one who is really in charge.

This day, calculated according to the time of the sun, is counted as the last day of the first month, the thirtieth day of the first month.

At midnight, Duyi Pass, that is, one of the nine hundred and ninety-nine ghost gates.

Duyiguan is a continuous city wall, and behind the towering city gates, there are ancient buildings that resemble the bleak shape of the palace, but they are many times taller than the normal houses in the sun.

In the Yin Palace, the main hall is spacious, more than 100 zhang in circumference, and the green light is bright.

Every once in a while, you can see the Yin of the squad, leading a large number of ghosts inside.

These ghosts have different expressions, most of them are crying and mourning, and when they come here, according to the rules, they naturally understand that they are dead.

Some of them are at a loss, and they don't know whether they can't accept the fact that their yang life has reached the end of their lives or because they can't believe that there really is a netherworld.

There are also those who are angry and crazy, and if they want to turn around and flee repeatedly, they will be whipped by the shadows, beaten until the ghosts cry wolves, and the soul shadow is dim before they stop.

On both sides of the main gate of the palace stood the shadows of giants about two feet high, looking fierce and vicious, and their lantern-like eyes emitted a ghostly light, sweeping the ghosts that came out of the palace gate from time to time.

"Liu Zhengyu, a human race, has a forty-ninth life expectancy, and died in the thirtieth day of the first month of the first month of Jihai year, and died in the death of Zhou Yang of the human race. As the little judge of Duyiguan, Qi Rong held a conjured book of life and death at this time, and read it out to the ghost in front of him.

According to the rules of the underworld, all creatures whose longevity has reached the end of their lives will understand the cause of their death, and this is why the ghost door is opened on July 15, and there is a saying that there is revenge and revenge, and there is a saying that there is a wish to repay.

"Liu Zhengyu, there were evil and murderous acts before his death, few good deeds, good is not worth it, according to the laws of the underworld, first take to the forest to wash away the sins and then enter the reincarnation, the next life is to be determined. ”

"Liu Zhengyu, I ask you can object?" Qi Rong asked according to the charter, there are often cases of murder before death, but according to different circumstances, the arrangements are also different.

If you are persecuted and resisted by others and kill by mistake, then it is excusable, and if you take the initiative to kill someone, it will depend on the situation.

Liu Zhengyu's soul in the audience hung his head and was silent, as if he acquiesced to the words of the little judge Qi Rong.

"Hold it down. Soon, Qi Rong pursed his lips and arranged the past of the soul in front of him.

If a ghost has been involved in intentional homicide during his lifetime, there is basically no possibility of reincarnation in the next life.

"Find Zhou Yang in the book of life and death, and make a record of murder. At the same time, Qi Rong instructed the yin on the side.

"Yes. ”

Immediately afterwards, Liu Zhengyu was escorted away by other errands and went to wash away the crime......

"Huang Tongzhou, a human race, Yang Shou fifty-one, Yang Shou died at the end of his life at the thirtieth day of the first month of the first month of Jihai year, and died by Zhou Yang of the Human Race. ”

"Huang Tongzhou, he did evil in his lifetime, he did very little good, and the good is not worth it, according to the laws of the underworld, he will first be taken to the forest of washing sins to wash away the sins and then enter reincarnation, and the next life is to be determined. As soon as the second ghost's record was read out, the face as black as the bottom of the pot furrowed into a frown.

It's not that another one wants to go to the sin forest to wash the sin, in the underworld, any ghost gate will accept tens of thousands of ghosts every day, and there are not a few of them who need to go to the sin forest to wash the sin.

But two ghosts died in the hands of the same person in a row, so could Zhou Yang be some kind of fierce and evil person?

"Make another note under Zhou Yang's name, and focus on the past life of this person named Zhou Yang. Qi Rong continued to instruct the yin around him.

"Yes. ”

"Li Jinglin, a human race, has a forty-eighth life expectancy, and when he was at the end of his life in the thirtieth day of the first month of the first month of the year of Jihai, he died of being killed by Zhou Yang of the human race...... Hmmm, why is it him again...", this will make the next ghost go on, but before he could finish speaking, he began to talk to himself.

Killed three people in a row?

I'm afraid that Zhou Yang will be suppressed forever in the Sinwashing Forest in the future, unless there is an extremely special reason.

"Li Jinglin, involved in killing a person during his lifetime, he did very little good, and the good was not worth it, according to the laws of the underworld, he was first escorted to the forest to wash away the sins and then enter reincarnation, and the next life is to be determined. Qi Rong's brows furrowed even tighter.

Who are these people and who, the ghosts of the dead and Zhou Yang have human lives on their hands, could it be that there is another large-scale chaos in the yang world? I haven't heard of it......

Qi Rong shook his head, put his thoughts behind him, no matter what the other party had to do with each other, he just did what he did.

"Give Zhou Yang another note...."

"Judge Mi, I found out Zhou Yang's current past life, so far in Zhou Yang's life and death book, including the three people just now, he has recorded a total of eight people killed. Yin on the side flipped through the law to the page showing Zhou Yang's life.

"What? Eight people? You put Zhou Yang's records aside, and I'll go to the Grand Judge later." Hearing his subordinates say that Zhou Yang had recorded the killing of eight people, Qi Rong's voice suddenly rose a few points.

The underworld has always been concerned about the state of affairs in the yang world, and there have been few wars in recent decades, and it must be a big problem to kill eight people.

Although yin and yang are different and do not interfere with each other, if the murderer comes to the underworld in the future, he will definitely be treated specially.

In addition to the small judges in each ghost gate, there are also ten great judges under the throne of Hades, and the big judges are in charge of the past of the great evil or the great good.

"Yes, Judge. Yin Cha responded and took out Zhou Yang's page and put it aside.

"Jia Xuesong, Terran, Yang Shou is fifty-one, Yang Shou died in the thirtieth day of the first month of Jihai year, and died in the killing of Zhou Yang of the Human Race..... " Qi Rong was stunned.

How is it still him?

That's nine people, right.....

"Give Zhou Yang another ......"

"Yes!"

"Qi Jun, a human race, Yang Shou is fifty-four, Yang Shou died in the thirtieth day of the first month of the first month of Jihai year, and died ..... killed by Zhou Yang of the Human Race"

"Make another note ......"

"Yes"

"Qu Hongwei, the human race, Yang Shou is fifty, Yang Shou is at the end of his life at the end of the thirtieth day of the first month of the first month of Jihai year, and he died in the killing of the human Zhou Yang..... "The more Qi Rong read it, the more frightened he became, and he simply read all the past of the more than ten ghosts in front of him in one go.

Ten people!

Just the ten ghosts in front of me turned out to be killed by the person named Zhou Yang!

Coupled with the previous records, doesn't it mean that in just half a year, Zhou Yang has already had fifteen murders in his hands?

Especially the ten souls that were just read out in front of him, the last ghost named He Yi, the death appearance was extremely ugly, he was completely tortured to death, and he had become a soul, and it could be seen from his constantly trembling soul that he had not yet woken up from the pain of death.

Peerless murderer!

Qi Rong didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly arranged these ghosts, these ghosts, without exception, all needed to go to the Cleansing Forest to clear their sins.

After arranging all this, Qi Rong immediately rushed to the judge's mansion, but whenever a great murderer appeared in the underworld, he would inevitably need to report to the magistrate in advance.

However, as soon as Mi Rong stepped out of the Duyi Guanyin Palace, he saw a yin difference floating rapidly on the opposite side, "Judge Mi, please stay, a strange thing happened at the pass, and please go and check on Judge Mi." ”

"Strange things? What strange things can be in the underworld, isn't everything bound by the rules of the Great Dao? Could it be that there is a ghost cultivator making trouble?" Qi Rong was puzzled in his heart, made a gesture, and followed the yin to the pass.

Qi Rong and Na Yin flew along the wide Yin Palace Avenue all the way forward, and about half a pillar of incense came to the Duyi Pass.

The illusory ghost gate is open, and there is some kind of energy circulating on the surface of the two gates, one door is separated, but there are two worlds.

I kept seeing ghosts at the door, and then there would be a shadow to pick them up.

Qi Rong has long been accustomed to this.

Seeing the arrival of the judge of the Duyi Guanfu, the yin cha consciously stopped what they were doing to salute.

"Judge, please see, that woman's soul is so strange, half of her body is outside the closed door, half of her body is inside the closed door, and I can't take it. Following the direction of Yin Cha pointing to the past, Qi Rong really found the situation that the other party said.

"Huh......, weird, weird," said Mi Rong, in amazement, as he approached to check.

According to the rules of the Great Dao of the Underworld, after the death of a person in the yang world, the ghost will enter the underworld autonomously according to the rules, and then be led by the Yin Difference.

If the living person is not dead, it is impossible to appear in the Ghost Gate, and once he steps into the Ghost Gate, it means that the person's body has completely died, and the soul will naturally enter the destination, that is, the underworld.

How can a soul enter only half of the underworld?

Never before has this been so bizarre in front of you!

"Please also ask the judge to cast a spell and help me extradite that soul. The yin cha on the side bowed and said.

"Hmm...... Cannot. Qi Rong thought for a moment and directly vetoed, "As long as the soul fails to fully step into the ghost gate, it is not considered the soul of the underworld, and we can't act against the rules." ”

Reincarnation is due to the rules of the Great Dao, and if it is forcibly interfered with by manpower, it is equivalent to challenging the mysterious rules of the Great Dao, and Qi Rong does not dare to try it easily.

"Wait a moment, and I'll go to the Grand Judge and ask him to decide. After saying this, Qi Rong turned around and left.

First there was a fierce person in the yang world, and then there was a strange situation where the soul did not cross the ghost gate, and Qi Rong frowned and flew to the most central position in the underworld.
