Youshu remembered that he died of heart failure, obviously he should be an old man with goosebumps, but now he is still an eighteen~nine-year-old boy, wearing a red wedding robe when he married his master, standing in a dark place with no edge in sight. He shouted loudly for his master's name, but received no response, so he had to choose a direction to move forward.

There was a bright light in front of him, and it was getting bigger and bigger, and when he got closer, he realized that it was a door, made of some material, and it looked very grandiose. He carefully observed the patterns on the door and found that there were carvings of six reincarnations, eighteen layers of hell, Huangquan Road, Wangxiang Terrace, Nai He Bridge and other scenes.

Could this be the gates of hell? He was slightly frightened in his heart, but there was no way back, it was better to enter the underworld than to wander in the endless darkness, maybe the master was waiting for him on the bridge. Thinking of this, he immediately reached out to push, but it was difficult to shake it no matter what. After about a quarter of an hour of busy work, he was already exhausted and out of breath, and he tried to force his mental power and dragon qi into his palms and push again. The pattern on the door seemed to have zài suction, and he began to frantically absorb the dragon qi in his palm, but it automatically eliminated the spiritual power.

The dazzling purple light traveled along the lines, and the closed door opened inch by inch, and when there was only a trace of dragon qi left in Youshu's body, the gate finally opened a gap that could accommodate a person to pass through. Youshu hurriedly got in, and then heard a loud bang, the door closed again, and it was still dark in front of him, but the difference was that there was a glimmering road under his feet.

Youshu walked along the road for an unknown amount of time, and finally entered an empty temple, where cyan ghost fire fluttered and swayed, illuminating the surroundings very eeriely. Suddenly, there was a terrible scream from ahead, which made his heart tense. He immediately reached into his sleeve pocket, only to find that all the talismans hidden inside were gone.

That's right, I'm supposed to be a ghost now, how can I bring things from the Yang world. Thinking of this, he could only hide his figure as much as possible so as not to be discovered, and when he was about to reach the end of the glowing corridor, he stopped for a moment's thought, and then quickly climbed up with the relief on the wall, and moved along the beams of the room.

He moved slowly, and after a quarter of an hour he had moved from one of the beams of the main hall to look down.

This should be an official office, with a table at the top with many torture sticks, and two rows of officials standing on the left and right of the bottom, holding wooden sticks in their hands, and kneeling in the open space in the middle, with many torture instruments stacked in front of them. The scream just now must have come from the man in the middle, his hands had been cut off, a lot of blood was shed, his head was hanging low, as if he had fainted, and there were two tiger claws at his feet for some reason.

"Take it away!" A thunderous voice sounded in the hall, and Youshu realized that there was still a person sitting in the shadows behind the table, just because he was wearing a pure black official robe, and his face was covered with a strange mask with red lines on a black background, almost blending with the shadows.

He leaned over slightly, exposing himself to the candle flames, and continued, "Next, interrogate Qian Jin, the magistrate of Fengtai, and bring people up." ”

The two officials immediately untied the rope of the man on the left and escorted him forward. The masked official took out a directory, ticked out the name of Qian Jin, and after confirming his identity, he began to count his crimes, which were nothing more than oppressing the villagers, corrupting the law, and so on.

Qian Jin was already frightened, and confessed to all the charges, so the official waved his hand and said a word of skinning. Immediately, two more officials set the man up, cut the skin behind him with a knife, and peeled him off for a while. Youshu looked carefully, and there was a slight suspicion in his eyes, there was a layer of skin covered with thick black ~ hair under the person's skin, could it be a monster?

But I heard a servant sneer, "It turned out to be the reincarnation of a jackal, no wonder it was so greedy." I have done a lot of evil in this life, and I am afraid that I will not even be able to do it as a jackal in the next life! ”

"That person was reincarnated as a hungry tiger before, and he was more ruthless than him!" Another official accosted him.

"Which of the current corrupt officials and corrupt officials is not transformed by jackals, tigers and leopards? If you do evil in this life, you will be slaughtered as a pig and dog in the next life, which is also considered the reincarnation of cause and effect. ”

There was a lot of discussion below, and Youshu suddenly understood that this should be a place like the Hades Palace, specifically interrogating those evil ghosts. These few people tied up in the hall are afraid that they will be punished today.

Sure enough, after peeling the skin, the official waved his hand and said, "Take him to the oil pot." ”

In a terrible wolf howl, the group dragged and dragged down, and the official patted the shocked wood and shouted, "Bring Zhao Youshu of Suichang Zhi County to interrogate!" ”

Youshu suddenly gasped, never expecting that he would be discovered hiding on the beam. But he soon realized that he was mistaken, the person at the bottom was talking about Suichang Zhi County, and he had never been a Suichang Zhi County, and there was no Suichang in Xia Qi's territory. Although he quickly converged, he was still discovered by the officials, and before he could react, his shoulder was pierced by a ray of black light.

The soul body will also be injured and bleed, Youshu has always known it. When the soul dies, it is a real annihilation, and he will never see his master again, and he is likely to be waiting for him somewhere in the world. With such hope, Youshu couldn't die no matter what, he jumped onto another beam with the most agile movement in his life, then dipped some blood, and drew a little dragon qi, and quickly drew an invisibility charm in the middle of his forehead.

When the officials sent officials to check, there were no traces on the beams of the house, and even the blood from the wounds was blocked by Youshu with his outer robe.

"My lord, there's nothing on it, maybe you heard it wrong, where do ghosts dare to trespass on the law order hell, and besides, the outside is heavily guarded, and they can't enter." A servant replied.

As soon as the official thought about it, he put down his previous doubts and continued to interrogate Zhao Youshu of Suichang Zhi County. Youshu endured the pain and lay on the crosswood, looked down, and then was startled. The person kneeling on the right side was cloaked, hanging his head, unable to see his true face, and now his body fell back, and his legs kicked forward vigorously, and his face was completely exposed to Youshu's eyes, he not only had the same name as Youshu, but also looked seven or eight points similar, at first glance it looked like it was carved out of a mold.

There were all kinds of speculations in Youshu's mind, but they all pressed it down and continued to watch.

After the official confirmed the identity of the prisoner, he read out his various charges as usual, and then ordered the officials to skin them, and the blood flowed down as soon as he opened a hole, accompanied by Zhao Youshu's scream like killing a pig, "The adults spare their lives, the little ones don't dare anymore!" As long as you spare the villain this time, the villain will definitely reform after he goes back and do his best for the people! ”

The official did not respond, but walked quickly to the torture rack, peeled his bloody flesh with his hands, and said in disbelief, "Hey, how could he be a human in his previous life?" Which of these corrupt officials did not escape from the beast road, and how could they get into a person today? As he spoke, he walked back to the desk and rummaged through a pile of papers.

Youshu poked out a little, and saw him find a book of reincarnation, turned a few pages, and suddenly said, "It turned out to be a descendant of Xia Qi's national teacher, who was protected by the merits of the national teacher and Emperor Yuan, so he didn't fall into the way of animals, and he could still be an official for generations." ”

"Damn, it's so big!" The servant took a sip.

Zhao Youshu on the torture rack breathed a sigh of relief, but Youshu on the beam of the room widened his eyes and secretly thought: Xia Qiguoshi, isn't it me who is talking about? Where did I come from? After thinking about it, I realized that this Zhao Youshu should be the descendant of his younger brother. Thinking that in order to continue the incense of the big house, he cured the cold disease of the palace for the Wang family, and later gave birth to a second son. When he died, his younger brother was already surrounded by children and grandchildren, which was enough to make the Zhao family's bloodline survive to this day.

Having said that, how many years have passed since Xia Qi now? According to the different costumes of the following people, I think there will be no less in the coming years.

It's not the first time Youshu has encountered this situation, and he quickly calmed down, but the people below can't be calm. This is the fourth of the twenty-four hells, the Hell of the Law, which only talks about the axioms of criminal law and does not pay attention to human interests. But the celebrity prisoner I met today was a big exception.

"My lord, what now?" A servant asked in a low voice.

"Think about it. Xia Qi Guoshi, it is said that there is no record in the life and death of the Hades King, he should be a real immortal, and Emperor Yuan is even bigger. He pointed to the top of his head and continued, "I heard that it is the Sect Master of Ten Thousand Stars, the King of Kings. He is also a Taoist couple, because of the unification of Kyushu, to create a 500-year peaceful and prosperous era, although there is a crime of killing but hundreds of millions of people, the merit is enough to bless future generations of hundreds of generations. And this Zhao Youshu happens to be within a hundred generations, and it will be difficult to deal with him. ”

"Put it back?" The official asked again.

"How can you be willing to put it back?" The official glanced at Zhao Youshu, who was shouting, and said decisively, "Take it down and beat me hard, and let it go after beating a hundred boards." ”

"Okay!" The servant happily agreed.

When this happened, the official seemed to lose interest, took the list into the official seal, and turned to leave. When everyone in the hall retreated, Youshu slid down the pillar and found another way. He still remembered the previous incident in his head, and he always felt uncomfortable. Have the descendants of the younger brother fallen to such a state because they have the protection of themselves and their masters? If you do evil in the world but you can still act as an official on your behalf, if you continue like this, it will only be completely corrupted.

He thought wildly all the way, and unknowingly walked to the place of execution, heard Zhao Youshu's screams, and immediately hid in the corner.

I saw two officials holding sticks and smashing them down, insulting and humiliating them as they smashed, obviously hating this evil ghost who was sheltered by their ancestors. Zhao Youshu also put down a lot of cruel words at first, saying that he would go to the prince of Yan to complain, but then gradually fell silent.

After two quarters of an hour, the officials did not stop, thinking that the number had already exceeded a hundred, and suddenly heard that someone in the front hall was beating a drum and shouting grievances, so he had to leave the people down and run to investigate. After all, he is a descendant of the Zhao family, so he has to take a look, Youshu immediately walked over and teased ~ opened the messy hair on Zhao Youshu's cheeks, but saw that his eyes were round, his body was stiff, and he was dead.

Some ghosts will be scattered and disappear completely; Some ghosts will become deaf when they die, and go deeper into hell. I don't know if Zhao Youshu was lucky or bad, he didn't become deaf, but turned into black smoke and dispersed. Youshu was stunned for a while, and when she heard footsteps outside, she immediately made a decision.

He wiped the invisibility talisman on his forehead, threw away the bloody red robe, and curled up where Zhao Youshu had originally curled up. Just now he had already understood that he was a person outside the world, and there was no record in the book of life and death, so he could not be reincarnated. And the master is Ziwei Emperor Xing, and after death, he will not go to hell, but return to the Heavenly Palace. If he is trapped in hell, he and his master will never see each other, and if he returns to earth, there may be a glimmer of hope. Although not all the emperors of the mortal world have extraordinary backgrounds, there will always be a male lord of all ages, and that person may or may not be the master.

But even the slightest hope, Youshu is willing to try. He dug open the wound on his shoulder, causing it to bleed more, and applied it to his buttock~ area. As soon as the disguise was done, the two officials returned, took the people to the high Wangxiang platform, and warned, "After you go back, you will be a good official and benefit one party, if there are any more people beating the drum to sue you, there will be no good luck today." Our Lord Yama will personally arrest you! ”

That official should be one of the twenty-four prison masters, and he can destroy himself with just a finger move, so how powerful will Lord Yama be? Youshu is very confident in her ability, but she will not be arrogant, and hurriedly nodded her promise.

The two officials' faces softened slightly, and they were about to throw him down, but they were shocked, "How can there be a trace of Ziwei Emperor Qi on him?" ”

"What's this? Forget who his ancestors were? It is said that the crape myrtle emperor of the Xia Qi National Division is even stronger, and he has reached the level of Cheng Dù, who controls ten thousand ghosts. This trace of emperor qi may have been passed on by him to future generations to save his life. ”

"It's because it's too much protection that so many things are not as good as beasts. ! After you go back, be an official and don't harm the people again! As soon as the words fell, the two ghosts let go of their hands, and Youshu fell from the high platform before he had time to react, and then a spirit woke up and found himself lying on a carved bed~.

He stroked his chest, tried his pulse again, and made sure that he had returned to the world and had a flesh~ body, so he immediately bit his fingertips, drew many exorcism charms on the white curtain, and laid a simple enchantment, and then lay back heavily. The dragon qi in his body has been exhausted, even a powerful ghost who has been practicing the Tao for less than twenty years can kill him lightly, let alone a monster? Fortunately, he followed the old man to learn spells for half a year, otherwise he would be like a walking ginseng fruit now, and he would be gnawed sooner or later.

The warnings of the officials echoed in his mind repeatedly, and he realized that the main task now was not to find the master, but to clean up the mess left by Zhao Youshu. If any of the common people are unjustly killed, go down to the underworld to complain, and wait for Lord Yama to come and arrest them in person.

Even a little prison master can't resist it, where will Youshu be the opponent of Lord Yama? He shook his head and sighed, and finally lifted the curtain and got out of bed, only to find that the fart~ was in a terrible pain, as if it was on fire.

"What's going on?" He immediately lifted his pants to check, and found that the skin was first red, then swollen~swollen, and finally dripping~ bloodshots, as if he had been beaten hundreds of boards.

But isn't the person who was beaten on the board Zhao Youshu? How can it be my turn to suffer? He was quite confused, and after thinking about it, this body belonged to Zhao Youshu, and it was inevitable to suffer some living crimes, so he calmed down. Zhao Youshu left many memories in his mind, which was convenient for Youshu, who had just arrived, he first put those dirty things aside, and then turned out the list of people in Zhao's mansion, and called out loudly, "Xiangzi, Xiangzi, come in!" ”

Xiangzi is Zhao Youshu's personal servant, and he sleeps in the ear room next door. He knew that the master had a lot of things to do at night, and he didn't dare to sleep too hard, so he had already run to the door at this time, "Here you come, here the little one is, what do you command, master?" ”

"Hurry up and ask for a doctor, my fart ~ hurts."

"Huh? Okay, let's go for the little ones! ”

Xiangzi didn't dare to ask more, so he went to the doctor overnight, took a quick look, said that it was a stick injury, and prescribed a few bottles of medicine for stick wounds. Because Suichang County is a small place, there is no clever doctor, Youshu had to smear the medicine and lie on the bed ~ for seven or eight days.

These days, he has sorted out the family background and life experience of "Zhao Youshu". He is indeed a descendant of the Zhao family, and the name of Zhao Shangshu and others is still remembered on the genealogy.

This Zhao Youshu was not only cute when he was young, but also extremely smart, he was admitted to the children's school at a young age, and won the champion at the age of eighteen ~ nine. But at this time, it was no longer the Xia Qi Dynasty, but the Dayong Dynasty six hundred years later, and the surname of the lord was Murong, so the Zhao family did not receive much preferential treatment, and was soon sent to the local government to become a small official.

Zhao Youshu's parents died when he was a child, and his family property was robbed by his uncle, and he survived by relying on the help of the villagers. After coming to Suichang County, where there is a lawsuit to collect silver taels, whoever gives more silver will be sentenced to win. Over time, the poor people of Suichang were wronged and would rather hang themselves than sue the officials, while the rich people were even more unscrupulous and fished in the village.

After Suichang's atmosphere was damaged by him, he intervened in taxation again, and the people became more and more helpless to live.

Last year, he went hunting in the mountains, and on the way he fell in love with a beautiful woman, so that people inquired and found out that it was the sister of a rogue in Lijia Village, a village under the jurisdiction of Suichang, named Li Ni, who was a well-known flower in ten miles and eight townships. Because she is very outstanding, her brother Li Ergou refused to let her marry casually, thinking that if she was favored by nobles one day, the old Li family would be developed.

A county parent official, naturally a big nobleman in the eyes of Li Ergou. As soon as Zhao Youshu sent the matchmaker to ask, he agreed, and from then on, he regarded himself as the county lord's brother-in-law and made a fortune in the village. That Li Ni was not a good thing, and she was very jealous, and when she saw anyone who was prettier than herself, or dressed richer than herself, she would send her wife to scratch people's faces and pick people's clothes.

So far, there have been five or six girls who have been poisoned by her, all of whom have hanged themselves because they had no face to see anyone. The bitter master came to the door to make trouble, and Li Ergou beat the people out, saying that he would go to the county government with them to fight a lawsuit. As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent, and then returned helplessly.

The reason why Zhao Youshu fell into the hell of the law was because he was jointly sued by the girls who committed suicide, and he really did not live for his own sin. However, such a wicked person does not have to bear any sinful karma because of his surname "Zhao", which shows that hell is the same as the human world, and not everyone is equal.

Youshu secretly sighed, although they are of the same clan, they can't have the slightest pity for "Zhao Youshu". After recovering from his injuries, he must govern Suichang County well, otherwise he will have to be arrested and taken to the underworld next time, and if he lets Lord Yama recognize the identity of a person outside his world, he may never see the sun of the mortal world again.

In the increasingly strict sense of urgency, he slowly healed his stick wounds, and lay down early at night, preparing to go to the county office tomorrow on an errand. This palace was countless times more magnificent than the previous Fourth Prison, although the sky could not be seen from the sky, there were dotted purple lanterns fluttering back and forth, and there were Pegasus, dragons, and emperors circling and swooping, roaring and screaming.

Seeing such a majestic scene, Youshu was stunned at first, and then immediately bit her fingertips and drew many invisibility charms on her brain, palm, arms, abdomen, etc. There was no doubt that this was the palace of King Yama, the Lord of the Netherworld, otherwise the previous Fourth Prison Lord would not have knelt at the foot of the steps along with the other twenty-three Prison Lords.

Youshu cautiously walked over and hid behind a huge pillar.

In a short time, there was a rumbling sound from the road that stretched to the end of the darkness and was full of flowers, as if many carriages were coming this way. There was a quiet voice, and she looked at it, but saw a few nine babies pulling a few prisoner carts, slowly walking to the gate of the palace, and a middle-aged man, a middle-aged beauty, and a young man in his early twenties were detained in the prison carts.

Youshu took a closer look and was suddenly shocked. The man's body was shining with gold, and he was clearly wearing a dragon robe; The woman is gorgeously dressed, wearing a step shake, and her position is not low; And the young man wore a purple and gold crown and a four-clawed python robe, and while struggling, he claimed to be the king, and he should be the son of the first two.

Doesn't it mean that the emperor of the world is not under the jurisdiction of Hades? What is the origin of the Yama in this palace, who can tie up the emperor and the prince together? As for why these people were tied up, Youshu didn't think it was strange. What "Zhao Youshu" did before, after being magnified by 10 million times, was the act of pilgrimage.

He favors the ministers on the outside and the adulterous concubines on the inside, but he only knows how to extort and extort violently, and seek pleasure; I don't know how to govern the country and benefit the people. The chaos in Suichang County is not an isolated case, but a general case, under the rule of the faint monarch, there are many, many corrupt officials like "Zhao Youshu", enough to fill in the hell of the law.

After reading the county chronicles and the Di newspaper, and summoning a few shallow imps to inquire, Youshu has fully understood the current situation of the Dayong Kingdom. This is a decadent dynasty that has only been established for more than 100 years, and if it does not have a decisive and wise monarch, it will fall apart in a few decades. However, now, this disaster that endangers the country may have been advanced, if the king of Yama sentences the monarch to death, and the successors lack enough courage and means, the country of Dayong is in danger.

After thinking about it, the gate of the palace was rumbling open, and a tall and sturdy man with a face covered with a purple mask on a black background and wearing a dark robe sat on the throne, and said in an empty and cold voice, "Murong Lian, the lord of the Great Yong Kingdom, the imperial concubine Sun, and Murong Xuan, the prince of Li, are seated. With a raised hand, the prisoner cart was crushed, and the three of them were summoned into the main hall out of thin air.

All the prison masters agreed in unison, and several nine babies also flew into the sky and roared, the momentum was extremely spectacular. Even a well-informed person like Shu couldn't help but widen his eyes, and he was deeply shocked by the majesty of the Lord of the Underworld.
