Chapter 589: Yin Capital
After crossing the Ghost Gate, Xiao Yuebai soon came to the legendary Lechuan River, tens of billions of years have passed, and the legendary river of the dead that cannot float has also dried up.
Even the only plant in the Yellow Spring, the flower on the other side that should have bloomed brightly on the bank of the Lechuan River, is now gone.
Standing on the edge of the Lechuan River and looking out, Xiao Yue's white eyes were still desolate except for desolation.
Under the observation of the Eye of Insight, only a few ghosts composed of the most basic electrons lingered on the desolate land on the other side.
Starting from the Ghost Gate, Xiao Yuebai came to the Lechuan River, and through his observation along the way, he found that these wandering spirits were completely different from the ghosts in the Land of Rune.
The ghosts here are completely devoid of self-awareness, just wandering back and forth in their vicinity, without any purpose, without any reason, without any emotion, just going back and forth from one land to another.
Although this made Xiao Yuebai very puzzled, but now he has opened the Eye of Insight all the way, no matter how terrifying these ghosts are, how they are surprised, they will not look so terrifying under the observation of the Eye of Insight.
Under the super vision of the Kryptonians, Xiao Yuebai's eyes looked through the darkness in front of him and saw that at the end of the line of sight on the other side of the river, there seemed to be a faint palace group quietly sitting there.
Subconsciously raised his eyes and looked around again, Xiao Yuebai began to raise his legs and continued to embark on the path forward.
Stepping on the dry riverbed and crossing the desolate land, the palace complex became clearer and clearer in his eyes.
It wasn't until he came to the foot of the building complex that he found that this was a palace complex, which was clearly a city, and the pitch-black plaque above the city gate was carved with two gilded characters of "Yin Capital".
The ancient city wall was full of mottled traces, and Xiao Yuebai's eyes passed through the empty gatehouse and saw the end of the street behind the door, the palace that looked very gloomy without the slightest light.
calmed down his slightly nervous mood, Xiao Yuebai's eyes became very firm at this moment, and he walked quickly through the Yindu Gatehouse and entered the city.
"Squeak~~~! ...... Rumble! ”
With the sound of harsh wood rubbing, the city gate behind Xiao Yuebai slowly closed.
Listening to this somewhat terrifying sound in his ears, Xiao Yuebai's heart did not make any waves, and his feet still walked unhurriedly towards the main hall at the end of the street.
The road is lined with quaint wooden buildings, and their style also looks very similar to the Burning Sun civilization, but the houses have collapsed over time.
In the end, Xiao Yuebai came to the palace complex in the central area of the city, standing under the high steps and looking up at the main entrance of the palace, the same plaques as the ones he saw before, but the inscriptions on them were different from before.
"Yama Palace!" Looking at the plaque hanging under the high eaves, Xiao Yuebai raised his eyebrows and sneered, and then said to himself:
"This is a place where the dead come in legends, but I didn't expect that I was still alive, and I had to come!"
After speaking, he smiled helplessly, then raised his legs and stepped on the steps, walked up step by step, and finally came to the gate.
The door of the underworld in front of him was closed, it was supposed to be vermilion paint, but now only the wood inside was left, Xiao Yuebai even felt that if he pushed the door with too much force, he might even break this wooden board.
Carefully raised his hand and gently pushed it on the door panel, and a dry and harsh friction sound sounded, Xiao Yuebai raised his leg and stepped over the threshold and entered the Yama Palace.
At first glance, Xiao Yuebai did not see the bull-headed horse face of the legendary detaining ghosts, nor did he see the black and white impermanence holding a mourning stick, let alone the judge holding the book of life and death and the judge's pen.
On the main hall of the main hall, the king of Yama, who was supposed to sit behind the main seat, was nowhere to be seen.
When Xiao Yuebai walked into the center of the Tang Dynasty, the door of the hall behind him suddenly closed heavily under the impetus of no one.
And just when Xiao Yuebai turned around, the scenery in front of him also changed instantly, and the furnishings around him that had just fallen suddenly took on a new look.
In front of the vermilion wood-lacquered door, two strong men with a bull's head and a horse's head were holding a long fork in one hand and the other on their crotch, guarding a row of spirits between them.
These geists were different from the ones Xiao Yuebai had seen before, they had obvious consciousness, and even Xiao Yuebai could see that each geist had a worried expression on their faces.
Looking closer, a ghost with a face that was obviously crying bitterly, but there was not a single tear in sight, knelt on the ground limply, as if he was crying to the person above the high hall in front of him, but Xiao Yuebai couldn't hear it.
Beside him, two men, one in white and one in black, held a mourning stick in his arms.
The pale faces of the two seemed to be whiter than white paper, but they both maintained solemn expressions, looking behind them, Xiao Yuebai saw this and slowly turned to look at the main seat that was still very messy just now.
At this moment, it has also become neat, and the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the red tablecloth are neatly placed there.
Even the staggering wood, tokens, and cups that were necessary for the public court appeared on the table, as they had seen on TV before.
And in the place that was empty just now, there were two more people, one of whom was sitting behind the table in a black gold-patterned python robe, with a dark complexion and a face that was not angry and arrogant, making people involuntarily reflect on the sins of their lives even if they looked at it.
With this dress, he doesn't need others to tell him, Xiao Yuebai can recognize his identity at the first time, but I don't know which one of the Ten Palaces Hades is this?
Next to Hades, a man dressed in red and wearing a black sand crown on his head had a very ugly face, holding a book in one hand and a pen in the other.
At this moment, he was keeping his head down, his eyes staring intently at the book, and at the same time talking about what he saw to the Hades beside him.
Soon when this person finished speaking, the king of Hades beside him didn't think about it, looked at the person kneeling in the lobby, and then opened his mouth to announce something, and after finishing speaking, he picked up the startling wood and slapped the table fiercely.
At this time, the black and white impermanence that had been on both sides of the kneeling man moved, and I saw them insert the mourning stick from the sidelines of the man, easily set up the ghost, handed it to the bull head and horse face behind him, and detained the next waiting ghost and made him kneel again.
After repeating this several times, everyone except the kneeling person in the lobby was changing, and everyone else was repeating the process over and over again.
They are like machines, repeating the process of being escorted, judged, and escorted away.
It wasn't until Xiao Yuebai watched it for the seventh time that a voice suddenly sounded from his side: "How is it?" Isn't the process after death boring? ”
As soon as the words fell, a woman in a goose-yellow palace dress suddenly appeared beside Xiao Yuebai.
Surprised, he turned his head and looked at the woman next to him, giving Xiao Yuebai the feeling that her appearance was not amazing, if this woman was allowed to wear the clothes of a modern person on earth and walk into the crowd, it was estimated that she would soon lose her attention.
But at this time, this place can appear next to you, it indicates that this woman is definitely unusual.
So Xiao Yuebai thought about it for a while, and said with a smile: "Indeed, this process is really boring. ”
