Chapter 16: The Devil (I)

Everyone is welcome to visit us, please remember the address of this site:,, so that you can read the latest chapters of "Maoshan Academy" at any time...

Our world is divided into the yang world, the underworld, and the unknown Western Elysium.

The yang world is the world we live in.

The underworld is naturally the world of ghosts.

In fact, the underworld is the same as the yang, it has its own order, has the same management system as the yang, and has its own holidays.

In layman's terms, it means that what we have in the yang world is what we have in the underworld.

The ghosts of the underworld are not all dressed in ancient costumes, and most of them are mainly dressed in the yang world, not any shrouds.

So the ghost movies we see on TV, those ghosts are wearing the same clothes as before they were alive, not wearing shrouds.

And the vast majority of ghosts have a lifetime of ghost life, and only one piece of clothing to wear, have you ever seen a ghost change clothes?

No.

Because the relatives of the yang world will only burn paper money for the deceased, but never burn clothes, and there are no clothes to buy in the underworld.

So remind you that while burning paper money for the dead, you should also burn some practical things, such as clothes, bicycles, and carriages.

These are very precious things in the underworld.

Of course, those big color TVs, washing machines, and even mobile phones, these can't be used at all in the underworld, how can there be electricity in the underworld? When these things go to the underworld, they are nothing more than some broken copper and iron.

The underworld has its own words, which are generally incomprehensible to ordinary living people, just like an idiom, ghost words, people have human words, and ghosts naturally have ghost words.

When I was a child, I once watched a zombie movie by Lin Zhengying, in which Uncle Ying ate a mud pill and would talk nonsense and talk to ghosts, but in fact, this is not the case, how can it be so simple to talk nonsense.

But now that I think about it, the fat man just ate the ghost food by mistake, that is, the square cake made of candles and clay, and the words that I didn't understand in his mouth should be nonsense.

It's just that if you eat something made of candles mixed with clay, you will talk nonsense, then I don't know.

The most striking feature of the world of the underworld is that there is no sunlight, no life, and a foggy and lifeless place.

We all know that people have three souls and seven souls, and the three souls are the heavenly soul, the earth soul and the human soul.

The heavenly soul is also the soul, which dominates people's consciousness, and the earth soul is also the soul of consciousness, which governs people's conscience of good and evil, and the human soul is also the soul of life, and dominates the life span of people.

All things in the world, plants only have life, no consciousness, no conscience of good and evil, all plants only have life souls, but no heavenly souls and earth souls.

Animals are unconscious, so animals only have earth souls and life souls, and no heavenly souls.

And as human beings, there are earth souls, life souls, and heavenly souls, so people are the spirits of all things, the masters of this world.

As for the seven spirits, in fact, they are the source of people's joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and once a person dies, the seven spirits will disappear with the person's death.

When a person is alive, the three souls and seven spirits are in the body, maintaining the life of the person, and after death, the seven spirits disappear, and the three souls go in different places.

The soul of heaven returns to heaven, saying that it is ascending to heaven, but in fact, it is popular to disappear.

The soul will stay, stay on the corpse, or attach to its own tablet for future generations to worship, until the ghost life is consumed, enter reincarnation, reincarnate, and then disappear consciously.

The soul of the earth returns to the earth, that is, the underworld,

Note that the underworld is not the underworld, the underworld is a world, and the underworld is just a city in the underworld, which is equivalent to our capital, that is, the underworld and the capital city.

The rulers of the underworld are the most powerful of the Ten Palaces of Yama, and they decide the fate of no soul.

This is what you might ask, what about Hades?

We'll answer that later.

The Ten Halls of the Underworld, the King of Hell decides the fate of this person in the next life according to the conscience of good and evil before the death of the earth soul, that is, the six realms of reincarnation.

As for what is ghost longevity, that is, how the earth soul becomes a ghost, this has to start from the earth soul entering the underworld after the person dies.

When a person has just passed away, the seven spirits will die, the heavenly soul will ascend to heaven, the soul will guard the corpse, and the earth soul will be separated from the body.

The earth soul will be very painful in the process of getting rid of the body, so it is best for the family not to touch his body to alleviate his pain.

At this time, the earth soul cannot be called a ghost, it is just a soul, it does not have any mana, and it does not know ghost magic.

After the earth soul is separated from the body, it will be escorted by Yin soldiers to the local land temple.

At this time, you will say, isn't it all black and white impermanence to hook the soul?

In fact, if you think about it, there are so many people in our yang world, how many people die every day, how can the two ghosts of black and white impermanence be busy, and the status of black and white impermanence in the underworld is very high, and there are thousands of yin soldiers under the jurisdiction below, so these small tasks of seducing souls, except for those difficult yin souls, basically do not need black and white impermanence to go out in person, they are all done by small yin soldiers.

Every place where we live has a land temple, of course, these land temples can't be seen by our yang eyes, but it is real, although we can't see it, but we can roughly guess its location.

Generally in the countryside, I don't know if you have noticed that the dead people will be buried in one place, such as the ancestral grave of a family, or people with the same surname, will be buried in the same place, this place, in fact, is the location of the land temple.

As for the city, it's basically the location of the cemetery.

Why is the land temple built here, the first is convenient, easy for the Yin soldiers to find, and the second is that there is a land temple will naturally have a land father-in-law, the land father-in-law here is not the gods we see in "Journey to the West", but the yin difference in the underworld, with them guarding here, the soul guarding the corpse will not make any trouble.

The land temple is the same as the yamen seen on TV, with antique decoration, a brown and red desk in the middle, and a local "household registration book" on the table, which records the mountains and rivers, population, livestock, and number of people in this place.

As the saying goes, one side of the water and soil supports one side of the people, one side of the land protects the other side, and a person's birth and death must pass through the local land temple.

Although the father-in-law of the land is low, he is an important messenger of communication between the various roads and the earth in the world, that is, the link between the yin and yang worlds, and the transportation hub.

To put it bluntly, it is the gate of the underworld, the door of ghosts.

When someone has reached the end of his life, the Yin soldier will take the soul card and the approval ticket to take the deceased soul to the land temple to clear customs, and the land father-in-law will open the local "household register" for verification, the deceased belongs to the local clan, and he is indeed dying, and one by one to verify that there is no religious belief, so he will stamp the local land seal on the approval ticket and pass through the underworld.

There is a passage pass on the right side of the land god case, which is the Huangquan Road to the Netherworld.

After handling all this, the Yin soldiers escorted the earth soul into the yin wind and stepped on the Huangquan Road.

Stepping on the Huangquan Road, I really came to the underworld.

Huangquan Road is also the only road leading to the underworld.

I often hear people say that Huangquan Road is not easy to walk, and there are no people old and old on Huangquan Road. Indeed it is.

Huangquan Road is the road that makes people desperate.

Looking up, you can't see the sun, moon and stars.

Looking down, you can't see the dust of the land.

Looking ahead, you can't see Yangguan Road.

Look behind you and see no relatives and friends.

In short, although his eyes are open, he can't see anything, only a path ahead.

As she said this, our aunt next door suddenly stopped, the smile on her face disappeared, and she glanced at each of us, as if deliberately trying to emphasize it, and said:

"If, your relatives pass away, and you have a great spell, if you want him to return to the yang, you can go out of the body, go to the underworld, and rob the soul on this Huangquan Road, because you haven't entered the capital city yet, everything is still going to turn around. In today's terms, Huangquan Road can be regarded as an accident-prone area. ”

After giving us hope, the aunt next door and the teacher immediately poured cold water on us, and the conversation changed:

"But everything is relative, if you let a person who has reached the end of his life return to Yang, it will definitely disrupt the order of the underworld, and there will definitely be mistakes in the book of life and death, so the backlash will also be extremely serious, maybe it will die in vain, and it may endanger the lives of future generations, in short, this kind of thing, until the last resort, it is better not to do it."

The road to Huangquan was rugged and bumpy, some of the souls of all walks of life cried and refused to go, some were full of rhetoric to please the Yin soldiers, and some went straight all the way in a daze......

People's sense of survival is the strongest, but how many people can return to their souls on this Huangquan Road? No matter how much the earth soul begged and tried all his best to escape, he couldn't break free from the chain of death in the hands of the Yin soldiers and went all the way back.

Another question, is there really no way to escape?

The answer is really, no.

You forget, there is also a yin in the underworld called the bull head and horse face.

From the Land Temple all the way to the Netherworld Underworld, there are two major messengers of the underworld, Niu Tou Ma Mian, who is supervising in an unknown place, although you can't see them, but if you escape, you will definitely not be able to escape their pursuit.

No matter how tired the earth soul is, the ghost will not let you rest and delay the trip, and you must hurry out of this Huangquan Road as soon as possible.

And there is no inn on this Huangquan Road, and there will be no stop in the middle, no matter how much money there is in the yang on the Huangquan Road, it is also in vain, and the destination is one place, the Yin Cao Difu --- the capital city.

As for how long this Huangquan Road is and how long it takes to walk, this varies from person to person, but it is actually distinguished according to the status of good and evil in this person's life, that is, your yin virtue determines everything about you.

Huangquan Road is the road that makes people despair, that is, to let you understand the fact that you are dead, and you are no longer the same as you were in life.

No matter how rich and powerful you were in your lifetime, on the Huangquan Road, you are a soul with nothing, called the earth and the earth, and the heavens should not be, so you are used to living a life of brocade clothes and jade food, and now walking on the Huangquan Road, how can you not despair?

But the more desperate you are, the more unwilling you will be, then you will keep going, you will be more desperate, then your Huangquan Road will go on until you fall into the abyss of despair.

And those who do evil in life are of the same nature as those who are rich.

As for those poor people, they were already full of resentment and disappointment towards this world, so even if they walked on the Huangquan Road, they didn't feel any different from the yang world, and they were still desperate, so their Huangquan Road soon came to an end.

And those who have a good heart and are good before their deaths have accumulated a lot of yin virtue for themselves, and they are already more open to external things, and they have no nostalgia after death, let alone psychological burden, and Huangquan Road is naturally short.

This is also a kind of so-called karma for good and evil.

As for the specific length of the world, there is indeed no specific number, but there is a passage in the "Master Sutra" that can be used as a reference:

"The next day came, look at the hometown, look at the ......"

The next day, I came to Wangxiangtai, which is the next stop on Huangquan Road, that is to say, Huangquan Road, and walked all day.

In order to write the three chapters of "Ghost Life" and sort out the process, I collected a lot of materials, books, movies, etc., plus my own inspiration, it was really too difficult. I hope you understand it too......
