Chapter 3 There is no way to escape on the Huangquan Road

Su Ling followed a group of ghosts, and I don't know how long they floated, and followed them to a city gate. The Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info the Shades lined up one after another, slowly moving forward.

Su Ling inadvertently raised her head and looked at the three words "Ghost Gate" written on the city gate. She was shocked, "Ghost Gate?" Is this the legendary Hell Gate "Ghost Gate"? How did I get to Ghost Gate? Could it be that I am already dead. This can't be, wasn't it okay just now, how can you say that death is death.

Su Ling stretched out her hand to pull the yin next to her and wanted to ask for an understanding, but none of the yin spirits next to her paid attention to her, and all of them just floated forward with stiff faces.

Su Ling had the idea of escaping from here, but it was pitch black everywhere and she didn't know where to flee. She turned around helplessly in the same place a few times, and a sadness poured into her heart that the earth should not be called ineffective every day.

Black and white impermanence and four yin forks stood on either side of the city gate. Hei Wuchang had a serious face, dressed in black, with a long hat on his head that said 'Catching You', and the cold light in his eyes swept at the group of slowly walking Yin Spirits. Bai Wuchang had a smile on his face, a group of harmony, white shirt and white hat, different from Black Impermanence, the long hat on his head was written on the four big words 'You are also here', all this, in Su Ling's eyes, I couldn't help but be stunned for a while.

There is a very famous song in "Dream of Red Mansions" that is written like this: Joy and glory are just right, hatred and impermanence are coming, seeing everything is thrown away, swinging and consuming the soul, looking at the hometown, the road is far away and the mountains are high, so I tell my father and mother in a dream: My son's life has entered the Yellow Spring, and I need to regress and withdraw early. This short famous song vividly describes the glory and wealth, but it can't withstand life and death.

When I was alive, when I read this article, I only felt emotion but no real feelings. And at this moment, when Su Ling herself really stood in front of this majestic and gloomy ghost gate, she deeply realized how precious the so-called life is in everyone. People only have a lifetime, in this life, maybe glory and wealth or poverty, maybe get ahead or maybe do nothing, only when you get on this long Huangquan road, do you understand that everything is not so important, only treat your relatives well, cherish all the feelings in this life is true.

Su Ling's heart seemed to be torn in half at the moment, she missed her husband and son, and imagined that it was just a nightmare, she was like a headless fly scurrying around, hoping to find her way home, but who knew that she accidentally bumped into black and white impermanence.

Su Ling's heart was shocked, this black and white impermanence had only been read in books before, and she had never seen it with her own eyes. At this moment, the two gods suddenly appeared in front of her, how could she not make her feel worried for a while. Su Ling didn't dare to make a mistake, so she had to hang her head and follow this group of ghosts, slowly drifting into the ghost gate and onto Huangquan Road.

It is a bluestone pavement about 2 meters wide and 50 meters long, and the road surface is very uneven. On both sides of Huangquan Road, there are flowers blooming on the other side that only see flowers but no leaves. 'Flowers and leaves are born and lost, and each other is forever related. That's what this poem says. On both sides of Huangquan Road, in addition to the flowers on the other side, there is a dark world that is dark and unsightly, and at the end of the road is the underworld.

Su Ling only felt that her feet were weak, and her body was light and fluttering beyond her control. In fact, she is just a soul out of her body now, and she is not a ghost yet, so she naturally feels light and fluttering. The ghosts in front of them also floated forward like pieces of paper without their feet touching the ground.

After walking the Huangquan Road, I saw the Lechuan River, the water of the Lechuan River is bloody and smelly, and the river is full of snakes and insects. There is a bridge over the Nai River on the Lechuan River, and the bridge is divided into three layers, the upper layer is red, the middle layer is yellow, and the lower layer is black.

The yin spirits who are good before life can go up to the upper floor, the upper road is flat, and there is a peaceful scenery everywhere they see, and the yin spirits who walk on the upper level are comfortable in their hearts, without the slightest sense of sadness and irritability, and there is a faint melodious auspicious music in their ears. The middle layer is slightly worse than the upper layer, and the sun is shining and sometimes lightning and thunder all the way is walking, so that those good and evil yin spirits are walking on thin ice, for fear that they will be scattered by the thunder and lightning overhead.

The saddest of those who do evil go down to the lower level, those who go down to the lower level not only have to suffer thousands of tortures and punishments before they can be reincarnated as human beings, and the evil ones will never be reborn, this is the rules of the underworld, come here, remember the life and death book clearly, and there is no room for deception at all.

Su Ling once read such a short article before her death, saying that some infatuated lovers who do not want to forget the past must jump into the Lechuan River and suffer from thousands of years of flooding and fire moxibustion. But they cannot speak to each other, and you can see him, but he cannot see you. After waiting for a thousand years, the infatuated lover returned to the yang world with the memories of his previous life to renew his relationship with his lover in his previous life.

Based on this touching and poignant legend, Su Ling couldn't help but look at the Lechuan River curiously. But the Lethe River was still some distance away from her, and there was a thick layer of white smoke floating on the river, and she couldn't see anything at all.

There is a Wangxiang Terrace after the Nai He Bridge, there is a Meng Po Pavilion on the side of the Wangxiang Terrace, every Yin Soul who passes by here has to drink a bowl of Meng Po soup, all the future and past events with a bowl of Meng Po soup in the stomach, and since then it has disappeared and ceased to exist, even if this life is a relative and when it comes to the next life goodbye, I am afraid that I have long since not remembered who you are and who I am. What's more, they are relatives in this life, and enemies in the next. Therefore, I advise the world to cherish what you have now, and not to regret it when you lose it.

Someone once wrote a song, the content of the song is described as follows: Drink a bowl of Meng Po soup, forget the sorrow of the previous life, walk back to the Nai He Bridge, and renew the relationship with you in the next life, with the nostalgia of the previous life, looking for you in the red dust, I spent all my life, but I can't wait for you to appear, I miss you, I have missed my long-cherished wish in this life, on the bridge, waiting for you for a hundred years, waiting for you for tens of thousands of years.

There is a three-life stone next to the Meng Po Pavilion, the three-life stone records everyone's past life, present life and future life, the words are bright red like blood, such as complaining and crying, and the top is engraved with the four big characters of 'early landing on the other side'.

When the ghosts came to the Nai He Bridge, they would stand on the lookout platform, take a look at the world again, and recall the past, all the gains and losses, love and hatred, have long been insignificant at this moment. Then he drank the Meng Po soup, but all the worries of this life entered the path of reincarnation and began the reincarnation of the next life.

The morgue in the funeral parlor, I don't know if it is to match the mood of the deceased's family deliberately creates a sad atmosphere, the lights here are very dim, giving people a cold and gloomy feeling, people don't want to stay for a moment. However, who would want to set foot here except the deceased and their families?

At this moment, Ou Jianping fell on Su Ling's body like a child and cried bitterly, and the heart-rending cry infected the companions present. The middle-aged assistant police officer and the employee of the funeral home turned their backs, and they couldn't bear to look at this scene of life and death.

After the grief, all the procedures that should be done still need to be done by Ou Jianping. Confirm the identity of the deceased in the traffic police brigade, cancel the account registration of the public security bureau, handle insurance claims, and the funeral expenses paid by Su Ling's unit, set up a memorial service for Su Ling, and so on... After this series of things was done, Ou Jianping lost a lot of weight.

Many times, Ou Jianping thought that he would fall and would not be able to hold on. He was especially afraid of being alone, and he tried to find things to do, exhausting himself all day long, and not allowing himself to have free time to reminisce.

He would rather stay outside than step into the house too early, this home was like being thrown into an ice cave by someone from the moment he lost Su Ling, and he could no longer find a trace of heat.

His son Ouge was temporarily taken back to his hometown by his parents, and the school also gave him a very relaxed class time. He is a strong man, in order to deal with Su Ling's funeral, he endured grief for more than half a month, and after all the things were dealt with, his state slowly adjusted.

A month later, he returned to his hometown and took his son back to school. His parents felt sorry for him for his hard work with his children alone, and they were also worried that he had not yet gotten out of the pain of losing his wife, so they came to take care of their daily life together.

Life is slowly starting to return to normal. Yes, the deceased is gone, and the living should cherish life and live well, for themselves and their relatives.

At this time, Su Ling, standing at the interface of the underworld, had no way out, and could only accept the fact that she was dead. After crossing Huangquan Road and coming to Nai He Bridge, she tried her best to hide behind.

She had heard people talk about Meng Po soup, saying that as long as she drank Meng Po soup, she would forget all the past. She doesn't want to forget Ou Jianping and Ou Ge, the two most important people in her life. If she didn't drink it, she couldn't drink it anyway, she made up her mind to keep admonishing herself, and a pair of frightened eyes peeked around, wondering how she could escape this fate.

One by one, the ghosts walked to the Sansheng Stone one after another, crying bitterly, looking back on the past, all the love and hatred, the ups and downs of gains and losses, everything in the world, at this moment, like a passing cloud, has lost any meaning.

After confessing one by one, he stood on the Wangxiang platform to take one last look at the world, then took the Meng Po soup, drank it all, and turned around and angrily floated into the underworld. Doing good and doing evil is not allowed to be deceived at this moment, and each enters his own path of reincarnation and begins to wait for the reincarnation of the next life.
