Volume 2 Plane Battle, Chapter 239: The Past of the Dead City (Part II)
Han Yu also wanted to leave the place of right and wrong, but unexpectedly stepped on a dead branch on the ground, making a sound, and the two people who were tied to the stone pillar noticed it, and after seeing Han Yu, they cried for help.
Seeing this, Han Yu felt pity and couldn't bear to leave, but he didn't know the origin of the two people, so he didn't dare to act rashly and hesitate, but he couldn't stand their bitter pleading, and when he saw that there were only the two of them left, he stepped forward and came to the two of them.
Although the two of them have been fried in the oil pan as black as charcoal, they can still vaguely see the appearance of their clothes, one of them is burly, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, a nose like a hanging gall, a big mouth and a fist, wearing chain armor, it seems to be a general!
The other person was quite emaciated, his cheeks were lowered, and his shirt had been stuck with blood, which could be vaguely seen to be Taoist Xuanyi.
The two begged Han Yu to untie the chains, Han Yu saw that they were pitiful, so he nodded and agreed, but he was a scholar, and he had no power to tie the chicken, and the chains were tied very tightly, and it took a lot of strength to untie the chains on the Xuanyi man, and when he was about to untie the other person, he suddenly heard someone shouting: "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Han Yu looked up and saw that several errands had returned, and he was immediately frightened and fled in panic, the errands chased after him, Han Yu ran for a while, exhausted, tired and panting, staggering, one accidentally, tripped over the stones on the ground and fell to the ground!
Seeing the messengers catching up, Han Yu was so frightened that his face was pale, and he said in his heart that this is over, he was caught by those messengers, if he was fried in an oil pot, wouldn't he be able to survive and die.
Unexpectedly, the messenger came over, ignoring Han Yu at all, but reached out to the shadow on his ground, and grabbed a person, who was the Xuanyi man who was rescued by Han Yu.
"You have committed a heinous sin, not only do you not think of repentance, but you are willing to be punished, but you even want to hide in the shadows and escape, you must inform Yan Jun of this matter, so that you will be punished for eternity in that infernal land. A messenger said sharply.
The Xuanyi man looked very frightened when he heard this, knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing and begging, but the officer didn't look at him, turned his head to Han Yu and said, "How can you break into this place? ”
When Han Yu heard this, he was so frightened that his knees weakened, and he was bound and escorted by the messenger and walked back, walking and walking, and suddenly saw a person walking towards him, who was holding a judge's pen in his hand, wearing a red robe, his face looked like a person for three points, and seven points like a ghost, and he looked very ugly,
When he saw Han Yu being tied up, he was taken aback! When he asked the messenger what had happened, the messenger was very respectful to him, called him Master Cui, and told him in detail what had happened.
After hearing this, the man smiled and said: "Han Gongzi has a good heart, he must have done something wrong because he didn't know the origin of that sinner, but fortunately, he will forgive him, and then order someone to loosen Han Yu's bonds."
Han Yu didn't know why he learned his surname, he was quite surprised, and although he had an ugly face, he was very friendly, forgave his mistakes, and was busy thanking him.
The man said, "Master Han doesn't need to be polite, come with me, Yan Jun has been waiting for a long time." ”
Han Yu was confused when he heard this, he didn't know who Yan Jun was, thinking of this scene, he said in his heart, Isn't that Yan Jun the King of Yama? Since coming here, Han Yu had a lot of doubts in his heart, so he opened his mouth to ask that person.
The man nodded: "To be exact, it is the Sixth Hades King, the King of Bian Cheng, and I am the judge under him." ”
After hearing this, Han Yu couldn't help but be frightened, although he had already prepared in his heart, he couldn't help but be shocked, he had heard the rumor that there were ten Yama kings, but he never thought that it was true, but the ten Yama kings lived in the netherworld, and he was in the yang world, how could they meet?
The judge seemed to see Han Yu's doubts, and said with a smile, "Do you know where this is?" Han Yu also shook his head.
"This is a vain city, there is no one in the city, all are ghosts who died in vain, and this city is in charge of the king of Bian Cheng. ”
After hearing this, Han Yu was shocked and said, "I traveled east from Huaicheng, how could I strayed into the city of vain death?"
The judge said: "Although this city is called the city of vain death, it exists in the netherworld, but there is also a gate entrance in the yang world. And what you enter is the entrance to this vain city in the sun!"
The judge looked at Han Yu, who was puzzled, and sighed, and said: "This city was originally called Yucheng, twenty years ago, the old dynasty collapsed and the new dynasty was not established, the world was in chaos, and all the soldiers and horses rose up to fight for the world, one of them was named Wang Hong, who was originally a general of the previous dynasty, and when he saw the country moving, he raised troops to seize the world!"
He raised troops to conquer the city and conquered the city, and gradually gained momentum. However, his life is ruthless and vicious, killing people like hemp, and often slaughtering the city, which is not tolerated by the way of heaven! Although his life is about to end, he should have been buried in the battle of Huaicheng, but there is a military division under his command, named Liao Qi, who is good at the way of Qimen and has the art of deduction!
After the siege, because he was angry with the people in the city, he ordered the slaughter of the city, and all the people in the city were spared, and they all died under his butcher's knife. ”
The judge sighed, and said: "The life span of the people of Yucheng is not over, and they should not have died, but they died unjustly at the hands of Wang Hong.
A few days later, Wang Hong led the soldiers to leave, and the city became a ghost city, there was no one in the city, only the ghosts of the dead in vain, which was handed over to the jurisdiction of the king of Bian Cheng, and then it was also renamed the city of death. It's really the entrance to the city of the dead.....
After hearing this, Han Yu said in his heart that he couldn't wonder that all he saw after coming to this city were ghosts, and he also felt pity for the unjust souls in the city, and followed the judge, and walked forward, all the way in his heart, I don't know what the king of Bian Cheng is looking for him.
After a while, the two of them came to a large building, and when they entered the door, they saw many people standing on both sides of the room, and in the middle sat a man who wore a square crown, a robe, a girdle, and leather boots, and looked solemn, and was not angry and arrogant.
The judge stepped forward and bowed, Han Yu knew that this must be the king of Bian Cheng, and hurriedly bowed, "Han Gongzi is a person from the Yang world, and he is not under the jurisdiction of this king, so there is no need to be polite." Bian Cheng Wang Qi said.
"Looking for you today, I have something to ask for, and I hope that Han Gongzi will not refuse. Han Yu dared to refuse, stood up, and hurriedly said, "The king commands." ”
King Bian Cheng nodded, pondered for a moment, and said, "Does Young Master Han know where this is?"
"When I came here before, Master Cui had already told Zai Xia that this is a vain death city in the yang world, and it is the place where the souls of the people who died in vain in the city dwell. ”
"Then does Han Gongzi know why the soul of a person who died in vain wants to enter the city of death?" asked King Bian Cheng again. Han Yu shook his head: "Xiaosheng doesn't know. ”
