Chapter 664: I met Meng Po by the bridge
The capital city, a magnificent ancient building city, towering and towering to the city wall of a hundred zhang, covers an area of incomparably vast, the capital is surrounded by four elephant city arch guards, walking on the wide streets, from time to time you can also hear the shouts of all kinds of vendors, here is everywhere with a sense of freshness, so that Liu Fan, a person from the modern era, is like Grandma Liu into the Grand View Garden, if it were not for Liu Fan sitting on the chariot of King Qin Guang at this time, he may not make any unexpected moves.
Due to the patrol of the Ten Palaces of Yama and the escort of the army, such a formation naturally attracted the attention of the "residents" of the capital city, this is a rare battle in hundreds of years, it is difficult not to be curious, but what makes the ghost people especially curious is naturally Liu Fan, who is riding in the same chariot with King Qin Guang, and they all guess his identity and origin.
"The Emperor of People, we've arrived at the place." Just as Liu Fan was wandering outside the world, the voice of King Qin Guang sounded in his ears, but he had already reached his destination.
"Oh oh......" Liu Fan looked up and saw a huge city gate, with two unknown beasts standing next to the door, looking at the hideous face and gloomy fangs, there was a chilling sense of fear, of course, this is relative to ordinary people, and Liu Fan only glanced at it.
"Netherworld?" Liu Fan looked up and saw a huge plaque above the gate, with four ancient characters written on it, and couldn't help but read silently, this place is similar to the jade slip recorded by his three masters, but it is still acceptable, and it is not as thunderous as the nameless town that he passed by before.
"Human Emperor, please!" After the gate slowly opened, King Qin Guang made a gesture to Liu Fan and motioned for him to take the first step.
"Oh!" Liu Fan didn't care, and stepped into the gate, followed by the ten palace kings and the ministers of the underworld, and they rushed in one after another, as for the 100,000 Yin soldiers, they naturally had another place to go.
"This?" As soon as he entered the gate, it was beyond Liu Fan's expectations, in his opinion, since this is the Netherworld Ghost Mansion, where the Ten Palaces of the Yama are lived, even if there are no beautiful pavilions and pavilions like the human court, no matter how it drops, it must be the princely mansion, he never expected it......
The smoke and dust curled up in the sight, reaching out and not seeing the five fingers, three points better than the haze in the capital, from time to time there was a little green ghost fire, and the whistling wind should be swept by all kinds of ghosts crying wolves, at this moment Liu Fan really realized that this was indeed a ghost mansion, but it was not all over the ground ghosts crying wolves.
King Qin Guang saw that Liu Fan was puzzled, so he opened his mouth to explain: "Emperor of the People, this is the gate of hell, also known as the ghost gate, and it is also the place where ghosts report, the road under your feet is Huangquan Road, through Huangquan Road, you can enter the bank of the Lechuan River, drink a bowl of Meng Po's soup of forgetting worries, you can step on the Nai He Bridge, cross to the other side and enter the reincarnation platform to be reincarnated." ”
Listening to King Qin Guang's explanation, following what he pointed to, Liu Fan saw a platform not far from the diagonal opposite, flashing white light from time to time, the interesting thing is that every time the white light flashed, a figure walked down from the platform, and then walked into Huangquan Road, and then turned into a wisp of ghost fire and disappeared into the smoke, this is the ghost fire in the smoke that Liu Fan saw before.
"Hell? Oh...... I see. Liu Fan nodded silently in response, but immediately became suspicious, so he continued to ask, "Then you brought me here?" ”
"Don't let the emperor of the people come first, wait for the emperor ......to come one by one" King Qin Guang naturally saw that Liu Fan was worried about his mother, and he didn't care about his words, but said slowly: "In this Huangquan Road is the palace of the king of Hades, all living beings in the world must come here to be judged after death, for the good to lead to the bridge of reincarnation, for the evil to enter the eighteenth layer of hell to wash away the sins and then reincarnate, the world knows that there are eighteen layers of hell, but do not know that there is a nineteenth layer, and this nineteenth layer is the cultivation of the king of the earth, if the emperor wants to see the king of the earth Bodhisattva, To save his mother and return to the sun, he must pass the test of the eighteen layers of hell. ”
"Test?" After hearing King Qin Guang's words, Liu Fan couldn't help frowning, although he was not afraid of any challenge with his current cultivation, he faintly felt the aura of conspiracy in his heart.
"Yes, this is the rule set by the King of Jizo, and Xiao Wang can only recruit it." King Qin Guang saw the worry in Liu Fan's heart, and his face was embarrassed, and his words revealed a trace of helplessness, but then he said without changing his face: "The first seventeen layers of these eighteen layers of hell are easy to say, I believe that judging from the current cultivation of the human emperor, it should be able to pass easily, but ......"
Speaking of this, King Qin Guang became hesitant, and the corners of his eyes secretly observed Liu Fan's expression, and Liu Fan also heard what King Qin Guang said, and hurriedly asked, "It's just what?" Could it be that King Qin Guang has something unspeakable? In order to save my mother, even if the road ahead is dangerous, why should I be afraid? ”
"That's it! Since the human emperor has made up his mind, then I will no longer hide it......" King Qin Guang gritted his teeth as if after a fierce ideological struggle, and then said: "Not to mention the seventeen layers of the eighteen layers of hell, the eighteenth layer of a single round is extremely dangerous, because what is imprisoned during this is the true spirit of the innate demon god left over from ancient times, the immortal existence of the innate demon god, and its true spirit can only be suppressed but cannot be destroyed, which is why the Bodhisattva of the King of the Earth has not come out of the eighteen layers of hell so far......"
At this point, King Qin Guang changed his words and said: "I believe that the human emperor should have heard that the king of the earth Bodhisattva once made a great wish that 'hell is not empty, and he will never become a Buddha', but how can it be so easy to realize the grand wish, the demon god is immortal, and the Bodhisattva is difficult to become a Buddha, maybe this is the reason why the Bodhisattva introduced the human emperor into the underworld." ”
"I see!" Liu Fan only realized a little at this time, but when he thought about it suddenly, he was indignant, he was calculating, what does it have to do with him whether he becomes a Buddha or not, even if he wants to ask himself for help, he will not be so shameless, is this considered a kidnapping? If the Buddha was here at this moment, Liu Fan would want to sue him.
But anger is anger, the most important thing at the moment is to find his mother's soul, and then return to the world to reunite with his family, but Liu Fan doesn't seem to think of a deeper layer at the moment, that is, why did King Qin Guang tell him these things, and Liu Fan, who was eager to save his mother, would not think deeply about whether there were other unknown conspiracies in this.
"Then dare to ask King Qin Guang how to enter the eighteenth layer of hell?" Now that he had made up his mind, Liu Fan asked bluntly: "After entering the eighteenth layer of hell, how can I pass through, and I also ask King Qin Guang to give me advice!" ”
"The emperor is serious, and since this is the case, Xiao Wang is not hypocritical." King Qin Guang saw that Liu Fan should come down, he couldn't help but smile, and after thinking for a while, he said again: "These eighteen layers of hell are divided into four levels, one is the eight hells, which are full of purgatory fire, so they are also called the eight hot hells, and the bottom is the Ah Nose Hell, which is the Infernal Hell, and the people who are imprisoned are all the great demons who once dominated the Three Realms during their lifetimes. ”
King Qin Guang paused, and continued: "And this eight-hot hell has eight layers, each layer has four small doors, and each door has four small hells, a total of one hundred and twenty-eight small hells, after getting out of the eight hot hells, you must go through the Youzeng hell, and suffer a thousand kinds of suffering, and then there are the eight cold hells, these eight layers of hell are extremely cold, and they are the most of the three cold places in the Three Realms, even if they have a strong body, they can't resist the cold, so the eight layers of cold are directly aimed at the soul, even if they are quasi-saints and mighty, so the emperor must be very careful, In addition, there is a layer of lonely hell, where you will feel extremely lonely, lonely and inhuman life, so this layer of hell is also called hell on earth, the above is the overview of the eighteen layers of hell, the emperor of all hopes is cautious and careful. ”
......After listening to King Qin Guang's introduction, Liu Fan couldn't help but spit out a breath of turbidity, and his face was a little more solemn, if he had relied on a quasi-saint cultivation to be rampant before, then now Liu Fan knew that he was sitting in a well and watching the sky, only saying that the eighteenth layer of hell was the prison of the underworld, but he didn't expect it to be so dangerous, but what kind of person is Liu Fan, the disciple of the Three Emperors, such an identity is also famous even in the Three Realms, the second generation of standard gods, how can he be afraid of the small eighteen-layer hell.
"Regardless of success or not, Liu Fan first thanked all the Hades kings for their kindness today, and he will be rewarded in the future, and I will go to these eighteen layers of hell." At this time, Liu Fan hugged his fists and thanked the king of the Ten Palaces, and his determination became more and more firm in his words, and there was a faint domineering spirit of "although there are tens of millions of people, I will also go".
"In this case, the emperor of the people, please, there is the Futu Pagoda by the Wangchuan River in front." In the middle of the conversation, the group had come to the vicinity of the Wangchuan River, but from time to time there was a queue of ghosts who wanted to be reincarnated, but in the middle of the procession, there was an old woman with a wrinkled face, holding a small spoon in one hand and a small bowl in the other, scooping soup into the bowl from time to time, and then handing it to the ghost on the side of the road.
However, this old woman is not as ordinary as she looks on the surface, her true identity is the incarnation of the ancestor of the ancient Wu clan Hou Tu Niang, according to legend, in ancient times, Hou Tu Niang Niang was kind in her heart, and saw that the souls of all living beings in heaven and earth could not be placed after death, or were devoured by the same kind, or wandered between heaven and earth, and then Tu Niang Niang felt this, so she incarnated into six reincarnations, giving the three realms of sentient beings the vitality of reincarnation and rebirth, and after that, Tu Niang Niang was even more incarnated as a peaceful mother, day and night by the bridge, boiling and forgetting the sorrow soup, in order to wash away the karma of the ghost before death, Therefore, in fact, Houtu Niangniang is the true god of the underworld.
At this time, Liu Fan passed by Meng Po's stall, but unexpectedly came to Meng Po, bowed down and hugged his fists and saluted: "Disciple Liu Fan, I have seen the emperor and queen Tuping Xinniang. ”
"Huh?" Meng Po's face that had not changed for thousands of years finally had a different expression, Xu felt the breath on Liu Fan's body, and actually stopped the hand in his hand, turned around and asked suspiciously: "Are you ...... Dragons? ”
"Uh...... No! Liu Fan was quite surprised, he didn't expect to be misunderstood for a member of the Jackie Chan clan, after being stunned, Liu Fan shook his head and introduced himself: "The disciple is a disciple of the three emperors of the human race, you and my three masters are both powerful people in the same period of the flood wilderness, and Master Fuxi once said that you have an old relationship, so the disciple treats each other with a teacher's courtesy." ”
"Oh! It is actually a disciple of King Fuxi, no wonder his cultivation is so profound, not bad! Meng Po just glanced at Liu Fan with her eyes, and she saw his cultivation, which couldn't help but make Liu Fan a little shocked in his heart, and then heard Meng Po's words: "King Fuxi, is it okay now?" After a long time, the Tu tribe became friendly with the human race, and I also had a good relationship with the king of Fuxi, your master......" As she spoke, Meng Po seemed to fall into a memory, and there was no words for a long time.
"Master Fuxi should be fine, at this moment, it should be in the thirty-third day of Huoyun Palace and the other two masters to play chess, but the disciple is in the world to get the inheritance of the three masters, ignorant and understandable to have today's cultivation, but it is a pity that he has not been able to accompany the three masters and listen to the teachings." When Liu Fan saw Meng Po wandering out of the world at this time, his expression was inexplicably happy, and he couldn't help but have evil thoughts in his heart, could it be that Master Fuxi and Hou Tu Niangniang really have a leg?
"Bang ......"
"Oops!"
Just when Liu Fan was in reverie, he felt a pain in his head for no reason, and he couldn't help but scream in pain, and then Meng Pojiao's voice came from his ears: "What are you thinking about, the old body is just recalling the past, where you think is so unbearable!" ”
