Chapter 111: Yin Guan's Faith
"Your Excellency, the villain has saluted you."
When the Yin official who came here saw me sitting on the ground in a mess, he was stunned at first, and then hurriedly lowered his head and knelt down on one knee in front of me.
I sighed helplessly, looked at the Yin official with a strange face, and even if he knelt, he was not much shorter than me when he was standing, and asked:
"Bull Tou Ma Mian, what are you doing here?"
The one who came here was the jailer who was in charge of patrolling and searching for fugitives in the underworld, and he was also Zhong Kui's minion.
This Yin official is three meters five tall, with a pair of long horns on his head, his face is thick and long like a horse's face, the human body and hands, his feet are as thick as ox hooves, and his strength is infinite, and the white flag he holds is the "timing flag" that controls the flow of time, and almost every Yin official who holds real power in the underworld has a banner in his hand, so that he can use it to avoid encountering the living and suspend the time in advance when hooking the soul, and he also has a weapon is the "Soul Hooking Hairpin", which is similar to the "Soul Fork" that guards the ghost gate, but it is used for the Yin Soul.
In the imagination of the living, I have always thought that "bull head and horse face" are two different yin officials, but in fact, this title is only for one, that is, the one in front of me.
"Xia Guan is here because there are two news to inform the adults, the first thing is that Lord Zhong Kui will let you see the underworld yin market on the fourth day of the first month of March, and Jiang Guangwang, the king of Qin Guang, asked me to tell on my behalf, saying that those two little yin spirits were authorized by the king of the underworld and made an exception to become "ghost spirit boys", and they will be the sedan chair children of adults in the future."
The two pieces of news brought by Niu Tou Ma Mian are really mixed blessings, and the good news is that the ghosts of the two children who were killed by Chen Haifu with cruel means and refined into ghost corpses can be turned into ghosts, so that not only can they not be bullied in the underworld, but more importantly, once their merits are completed, they will be reincarnated as Fushou twins.
Also, although the yin officials above the major yin divisions in the underworld have their own yin sedan chairs, this yin sedan chair is formed with the power of their own powerful yin divisions, and then gather the power of the four yin sedan chair men and the sedan chair boy to quickly reach a certain position, and the sedan chair boy is the boy who guides the way and expells the roadblocks, Hades let the yin souls of these two children be promoted to the ghost to be my sedan chair child, then even if I can use the power of my judge to form a sedan chair, but how can I have a sedan chair man?
According to my understanding of it, if there is anything important, it will definitely come to me directly or let me go back immediately, but why wait until the open day of the yin market more than a month later?
I didn't raise my doubts, because I knew that even if I asked, it would never know, because it didn't have the right to know more.
After saying these two things, Niu Tou Ma Mian was silent for a while, and when he saw that I still didn't make any moves, he tilted his head and looked at me with an expressionless face, and then clasped his hands into fists and said:
"Congratulations to the Lord for being a ghost slave"
Only then did I react from my own conjecture, and then stretched out my arm to it, and the other party was very clear-thinking, and quickly knelt down and climbed a few steps in my direction, and helped me to stand up.
I still feel dizzy, but I feel much better than just now, and I looked at the bull-headed horse face who was still kneeling on the ground and respectfully to me, and asked:
"How did you find me?"
When the bull-headed horse saw that I had finally taken care of it, he smiled and replied with a flattering face:
"My lord, your pavilion is special than the villains, not only can you open the soul attraction road to travel between the yin and yang worlds anytime and anywhere, but also connect with the pavilion of Lord Hades, Lord Judge and Lord Yama, and accurately find your location, just now it is the first Yama who helped me connect to your soul path, I can come to the yang world, and I am fortunate to see the face of Lushan Mountain."
Niu Tou Ma Mian paused for a moment and continued: "Also, my lord, your Tongting can be connected to any Yin Si Tong Pavilion, if you need it in the future, you can silently recite the official name on the Tongting, then it will naturally invite me, I hope your Excellency will mention more......
After listening to its explanation, I nodded secretly, it turns out that the Tongting given to me by the Hades King still has such a function, so wouldn't it be possible to summon various Yin Si and Yin Officials if you encounter any difficulties in the future?
Then I denied my own idea, although what the bull head and horse face said should be the truth, why didn't the Hades tell me in the first place?
I analyzed it in my brain, and finally came to the conclusion that there are two possibilities, the first is that Hades wants me to deal with the affairs of the yang world with my own ability, so as to help me recover the speed of the judge's power, and second, it may be that I am afraid that too much participation in the affairs of the yang world will break the balance of the three realms, which will cause unnecessary trouble, or cause irreparable consequences.
It seems that although my Tongting has this effect, it is still not easy to use it unless it is absolutely necessary!
I looked at the bull head and horse kneeling on the ground with an expectant look, smiled at it, and said, "Okay, I know, I've worked hard for you, then you can go back!"
It stood up with its long flattered face, hugged me with a fist and was about to get into the path of soul introduction, and just stepped into a cow's hoof, suddenly looked back at me covering my face and still frowning, and then looked at the petrified big man in place, and said hesitantly:
"That...... Lord Judge, it's not a person over there, it's the same demon as in my previous life, but just after the transformation, the demon pill was seized and forcibly covered up the demon nature, as long as you get its demon pill, it will inevitably be used by you, my lord...... There are still five minutes left for the timer flag to be lifted, so adults can go there and look for ......"
With that, it pointed to the location of the hidden gate on the wall behind me, and before I could respond, it carried the timed banner into the soul path again, and disappeared, and then the soul path disappeared, returning to the normal wall.
I was shocked by the words of the bull and the horse, and when I looked at the motionless big man, I realized that it was actually a demon!
No wonder it doesn't speak well, and its appearance is so terrifying and weird, it was robbed of the demon pill just after the transformation, it's like a half-finished product, it's strange if it's not ugly!
Thinking of this, I didn't dare to waste time, so I pushed open the door hidden in the wall and stepped in, and entered another passage in front of me, but this passage was only a few steps away, and there was still a large iron door at the end.
When I first saw Gao Lao go out of here, I concluded that there must be a bigger secret hidden inside, and now this secret will be known immediately, I did not hesitate to reach out and push open the iron door, and suddenly a sour smell and herbal smell came to my face, the smell was so bad that it almost made me vomit.
I resisted the feeling of nausea and walked into the room, the first thing I saw was a picture that shocked me very much, this room of four hundred square meters is filled with more than 100 black water tanks, the diameter of the water tank can be one meter, except for sixty or seventy empty mouths, the rest of the tanks are all exposed half of the head, and these heads of the heavenly spirit acupoints are also inserted with sharp cow bones, the mouth of the tank is full of red runes painted with cinnabar, I walked to the nearest water tank, only to find that there is not only a corpse sitting in it, but also soaked in unknown black water, the sour smell and herbal smell are emanating from this black water。
I trembled and looked at these corpses with my eyes closed, presumably this was the way that Elder Gao used to refine the ghost zombie, and I couldn't help but be angry.
This old man is really evil!
In addition to these water tanks, there are lit white candles around the walls, and the lighting in the room is provided by these candles, and then I began to look for the demon pill that the bull head and horse face said between the water tanks, and it almost didn't take much effort to see a small box in the corner, and on the box was pasted a "trapped demon talisman" that had the effect of suppressing the demon and trapping the demon power, and around the box there was a faint red halo.
Seeing this, I can basically be sure that it is a large demon pill inside, thinking of this, I hurriedly tore off the talisman on it, opened the lid of the box, and took out an oval-shaped object with a dazzling red light from it, what is this not a demon pill?
I hold the demon pill in my hand, feeling the strong demon power above, it seems that the big man has not completely transformed into a normal human form, if he wants to become a normal human form, there is still the most critical step left, which is the transformation tribulation.
Presumably, Gao Lao somewhere met the big man who was about to enter the transformation stage, and seized its demon pill when it was weakest before it was about to go through the catastrophe, and forcibly stayed by his side for his own drive.
The demon will be cultivated above is the demon, and the most important thing in this process is to go through the first catastrophe, which is the so-called transformation tribulation, in order to successfully survive this demon tribulation, you can really transform and be born, and this first demon tribulation is said to be simple, it is really not easy to get through, this not only requires the creation and powerful demon power of the demon beast itself, but also requires enough endurance and tenacity, and each demon beast must have at least a few hundred years before the transformation. Thousands of years or even tens of thousands of years of Taoism, it is unknown what accidents will occur in this long period of time, maybe it is death, maybe it is falling into the demon path, maybe it is controlled by a selfish strange person like Gao Lao, in short, it is really difficult to cultivate into a demon.
I looked at the time, there are less than three minutes before the timing banner used by the bull head and horse face will be lifted, and then the two people outside and a demon will regain their freedom, although I have the demon pill in my hand, the big man should not do anything to me again, but I still have to go out quickly to take a look at the more than fifty corpses outside, and find a way to rescue the trapped ghosts, thinking of this, I quickly put the demon pill into my pocket and returned to the room where the elder Gao was again.
As soon as I entered this room, I was afraid that I would not have enough time for a while, so I first threw out the soul chain and tied the old man's body firmly, and then squatted on the ground and turned over a corpse.
I didn't have a chance to take a closer look when I was brutally abused by the big guys, but now under the spell of the bull head and horse face, I can take time to take a good look.
