Chapter 703: The Current Situation of the Underworld
Four Seasons Yingji looked at Bai Jingyue, her eyes were a little wandering, it was the words of the man in front of her and her father, which made her follow him away from her homeland and come to this place that was too backward compared to the Han Dynasty to build this place of reincarnation. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 However, after creating this place of reincarnation, she was hung here for seven hundred years.
Seven hundred years is not too long for a god, but it is not too little.
The entire history of Takamagahara is less than 2,000 years.
For a young Shijieihime who is in the underworld, seven hundred years is a very long time.
And she could only be forced to manage this messy underworld alone for these 700 years, and devoted all her time to the management of the underworld.
Especially the time after the other party left. Ragnarok, monsters are rampant, and a large number of humans are dying, and these souls are all stuck in front of the Santu River, which has not yet ferried.
During that time, she could only work part-time as a ferryman, inquisitor, and law enforcement officer, and some miscellaneous items could only be handled by herself.
It wasn't until later that she selected a lot of people with special qualities among the many undead and delegated some of her powers, and the situation gradually improved.
In the past 700 years, she has really worked hard.
However, it was also this man who made her the Yama of this place, and found a new meaning of survival for her after defeat. It was also this man who helped her solve her biggest problem when she was most helpless.
This cherry blossom tree has threatened the underworld.
At first, she didn't take this cherry blossom tree seriously, because she trusted the seal of the two of the three gods of this realm, Suzhan Naruzun and Amaterasu, or rather, she trusted this Shirai Moon who was able to subdue a Yama Temple.
But she didn't expect that this cherry blossom tree would reach this level after absorbing the power of death, breaking the seal, not to mention, and beginning to control the entire underworld.
Since the cherry blossom tree reached the point where it was almost a god and could control the underworld, a large number of undead have gathered around the cherry blossom tree to serve it and not enter the cycle of reincarnation. Even, the cherry blossom trees have organized an undead assault on the Santu River!
Fortunately, although the Santu River is not as powerful as Lethe, it is also a regular river of death, and ordinary undead have no possibility of breaking through, otherwise, the underworld will really be in chaos!
Although the ambition of the cherry blossom tree did not succeed, it still caused great harm to the reincarnation system, and a large number of dead souls were unable to cross the river, which caused problems in the operation of the underworld.
As a last resort, in order to deal with this cherry blossom tree, she came here today fully armed, ready to fight the cherry blossom tree.
Then I saw the battle between Shirai Moon and the cherry blossom tree.
As a result, as she saw now, the mighty cherry blossom tree had turned into a cloud of snow, dissipating away.
Gradually, her resentment towards Bai Jingyue dissipated little by little, after all, she knew about Ragnarok, if it weren't for the fact that the gods of the underworld were different from the gods on the earth, she would probably be implicated.
This kind of killing in the world, Bai Jingyue has only disappeared for hundreds of years, which is still understandable.
Thinking of this, Shiki Yingji bowed deeply to Shirai Yue: "Lord Shirai, you are here, thank you very much for your help." ”
"yes, I'm here. All these years, you have worked hard. ”
mentioned this, but as if something had been turned on, the four seasons Yingji began to complain: "My lord, you are too much, I said that I would let your gods help manage it, but none of them came, so I can only find the ghost to help myself, the rules here are not complete, and it almost caused the collapse of the underworld!"
"Ragnarok is terrifying, but how long has it been since you and Amaterasu-sama left the underworld before you officially entered Ragnarok, and as a result, your lord didn't leave a word. I thought you were dead!"
"Since you know that managing the underworld is tiring, then don't add to the burden on me! Isn't there a formal exit on the ground? Why do you want to directly destroy the barrier? There is no Santu River here, and the souls of the dead are not managed, what if there are undead souls escaping from this gap? It will have an impact on the world! If the yin and yang are out of balance, there will be problems in the whole world!"
"Although the adult killed that monster, this is not an excuse for the adult to ignore the rules of the underworld! If all powerful people are like the adult, the underworld and the mortal world will one day be chaotic! Reincarnation will become an ornament!"
"Your Excellency・・・・・・ are you listening!?"
Looking at Shirai Tsuki, who had been nodding to her preaching, Shiki Yingji was a little strange. In the past, when she talked to others, the other party couldn't stand it for a while, how could she keep nodding like this?
Could it be that it is pretended?
To be honest, the first time I saw Shikiki Yingji's preaching, Shirai Moon was also taken aback, but sure enough, he was still more interested, although he had known about it for a long time, but when this thing really turned from fantasy to reality, the feeling was indescribable, as if a dream had come true. Moreover, the current Four Seasons Yingji is still far from the degree of smell and color change in the future.
Bai Jingyue touched the head of the four seasons and said with a smile: "I listened to everything that Yingji said. I'm so sorry to have left you alone for these seven hundred years. ”
"Woo!!..."
Tears finally came out of the eyes of this strong-looking girl.
Separated from his family and gone to a foreign land, he was left alone for hundreds of years, and his heart was full of holes and almost destroyed.
This one thing pressed on the thin body of Shijiying Ji, and she was under great pressure. No matter how you say it, the current Four Seasons Yingji is just a child.
Now, in order to solve the hidden dangers of the underworld, she gambled on life and death to fight against the water, and at this time, this generous body reappeared and stood in front of her, making her whole person relax.
Throwing herself into Shirai Tsuki's broad shoulders, Shiki Yingji cried loudly, this was the first time she cried when she came here, and perhaps, the last time she cried.
Finally, after a long time, Shiki's crying gradually stopped.
"Have you cried enough? If not enough, I can continue to be your pillow. ”
Hearing this, Siji Yingji broke free from Shirai Yue's arms, and her face was slightly red: "What is Lord Shirai coming to the underworld for this time?"
"Of course, it's to see my little Yan Luo~"
Looking at Shiji's flushed little face, Shirai Yue was interested.
"My lord, really! Yama is a very serious profession!"
Although she didn't hear the true meaning of Shirai Yue's words, Shiki Yingji also knew that Shirai Yue was teasing her.
"However, I really just came to see you, and I don't know much about the rules of the underworld, so there's no need to read them. I really didn't expect that 700 years would pass in a deep sleep. The thought of you being here alone for 700 years makes me feel a little guilty, after all, I brought you here in the first place. ”
After listening, Siji Yingji was a little moved, at least she knew that in the past seven hundred years, she had not been forgotten by the other party.
"Well, since the adults are here, let's take a look, the current underworld. ”
Although Shirai Yue said that there was no need to see it, Shiki Yingji still planned to take Shirai Yue to visit, as if she had done a little achievement, like showing off in front of her elders, or the person she liked, Shiji Yingji now just wants to show her seven hundred years of hard work to Shirai Yue.
The two of them walked towards the depths of the underworld, passing one dazed soul after another.
"These are people who have just died, and they have not yet realized that they are dead, so they wander here until they understand the fact of their death, and then they will start walking in the direction of the Santu River. ”
There is nothing to see here, and the four seasons Yingji took Shirai Moon to speed up, and after a while, they came to the Santu River, and here, it was much more lively than the plain just now.
A large number of dead souls lined up, one by one, walked onto the wooden boat on the shore, and then rowed towards the other shore under the guidance of the wooden boat.
"Because there is no bridge of helplessness, we have to hire people to ferry here, and most of them are people who have committed serious crimes, and under normal circumstances, they use their work to reduce the penal punishment or use a certain number of working hours to exempt them from punishment. ”
In the words, the four seasons Yingji was helpless, she didn't want to use these people, but if there are few sins, basically she will clear her sins after a period of time, and then she chooses to be reincarnated, and the frequent replacement of personnel will drag down the speed here. In desperation, she can only use these sinful people who do not want to be punished.
She didn't want to go back to the days when the underworld was just established, and she had to do it all by herself.
Fortunately, there are still a few people who don't want to lose their memories of the past and are willing to stay forever, which can be regarded as her only comfort.
Looking at the orderly scene in front of him, Bai Jingyue couldn't help but nodded. The ability of the four seasons Yingji is still very good, and it is no wonder that her father is relieved that she is here, she has the talent to support an underworld.
I just don't know what it was like when she judged souls. Anyway, now that she's here, who's judging the soul?
The puzzled Shirai asked the question.
"Queue up outside the Hall of Merits for the time being, after all, today's matter is more important, if the dryad is not removed, the reincarnation will also be destroyed, and it is meaningless to judge or not. ”
"Isn't it the Yama Palace?"
Bai Jingyue asked strangely, when I was in the Han Dynasty, it was obviously the Yama Hall on that plaque.
"That's where only those who become the king of Yama can work. And thinking that I, who has not been recognized by the headquarters, can only work in the Hall of Right and Wrong. ”
Hearing this, Shirai Moon suddenly became enlightened, that is, after Hichimoto and the underworld over there are contacted, Shikieihime will be able to become the king of Yama and establish the Yama Palace?
Unexpectedly, Shiki Yingji still shook her head.
"Then I'm just a Yama. Hou Tu Niang Niang stipulated that there are only ten halls of Yama in the world, and there are only ten kings of Yama. ”
Shirai was silent.
He thought of Shiki Yingji's father, it was impossible for that man not to know this, however, Shiji Yingji's attack was too small to be just a Yama.
So, is that person planning to abdicate to his daughter?
Some feelings, really, regardless of the species, should be great, still great.
At this moment, Shiki Yinghime seemed to see something, and walked in one direction angrily.
"Komachi! You're sleeping again!"
Shirai Moon looked in the direction of Shikihime's progress, and the first thing that caught her eye was the red hair, the huge scythe, and the sleeping face.
That's right, while the ferryman around is working hard, this ferryman is sleeping lazy!
"Komachi・・・Onozuka Komachi..."
Shirai Yue showed an interested look, in fact, he had always been curious about this Onozuka Komachi before, she was so lazy, why didn't Shiki Yingji fire her?
After Shikiki Yinghime finished teaching Onozuka Komachi, half an hour had passed, and it was Shirai Moon who stepped forward to stop it, so that Shikiki Yinghime stopped.
She hadn't forgotten that she was going to introduce the entire underworld to Shirai Yue.
Pulling Shirai Moon onto the wooden boat of the ferryman who had just been trained for a long time, Shiki Yingji began to introduce Shirai Yue: "Lord Shirai, this is Onozuka Komachi, she is the person I said before, who volunteered to stay. ”
"I see. Hello, Komachi. ”
Onozuka Komachi didn't know what to do.,Because she was just an ordinary soul who died in the war.,Because she didn't want to return to the present world, she stayed.,In her impression.,As a Yama, the four seasons of the Eihime is the most noble.,I didn't expect there to be a more noble existence.。
"Great, sir. ”
"My name is Shirai Yue, just call me Yue. ”
After the introduction, Bai Jingyue patted the head of the four seasons Yingji: "The ferryman can control the distance, right? Go over directly, let me see the situation behind, and the others will come next time, Xiaoyu is still waiting for me in the world." ”
"Xiaoyu?"
For a while, Shiki Yingji hadn't reacted yet, but soon she remembered that this title belonged to the man in front of her, the name of Amaterasu!
"Got it! Komachi! Hurry up!"
It seems to be the rule of the underworld, all ferrymen have the ability to manipulate distance, relying on this ability, they can cross the Santu River in an instant, and of course, they can also extend the time to cross the river. As for how to do it, that's the rule that belongs to the ferryman.
Under the control of Onozuka Komachi, Shirai Moon and Shiki Yinghime stepped onto the other side, Manshu Sahua bloomed at their feet, and a netherworld path spread out in front of them.
"By the way, why don't you replace her? There are a lot of people who want to be ferrymen, right?"
When it was almost time to get to the Hall of Merits, Shirai Yue finally asked this question.
Four Seasons Yingji smiled slightly: "Because, she was the first to atone for her sins and was willing to stay and help me, although she is lazy now, but at the beginning, she helped me a lot." Perhaps, she was really tired. I've already figured out that when the time comes, I'll give the Grim Reaper's position to these ferrymen who have volunteered to stay. ”
"Death?"
"Well, the god of death was originally the existence of guiding souls, and it turned out that I was a god of death, and I was originally performing the assessment task of transforming into Yama, and the result was ・・・・・・"
As a result, Shikiki Yingji didn't say it, and Shirai Yue also understood that that mission was stirred up by Shirai Yue.
"Now, the work of the ferryman in this Santuchuan is actually similar to that of death, so just give them to them, anyway, I don't have anyone to give it to. ”
Originally, these positions in the underworld were reserved for the gods of High Heavengahara, but after Ragnarok, these positions were vacant until now.
"This, Yinghime, you can decide for yourself. Now, let me see how you judge souls. ”
As they spoke, the two of them had come to a grand building, and the souls of the dead lined up in front of the door, stretching to the end in sight.
Here, it's the [Hall of Straight Facts]!
A place of judgment for the soul!
