Black and white impermanence explained while taking us to visit the entire Hades Palace. To be honest, this place is very similar to the ancient county government, except that the area is relatively large and gloomy. The ghosts, which are usually difficult to see, are like ants here, and the long line of undead souls runs from the entrance of the Yama Hall to the ghost mist.
The underworld is different from the human world, there is fog everywhere, the difference is only that some places are thick and some places are light. In the dense fog area, you can't see your hands if you stretch out your arms, but in the mist area, you can still ensure a vision range of five or six hundred meters. The color of the fog here is also very different, mostly plain green, with some places blue, and a small number of black and yellow. It is said that there seems to be a red mist area, but it is very rare. The front of my Hades Hall is all blue fog, and the visibility is only more than 300 meters, and it is blue farther away.
The souls of the departed in the Wind Capital City will go directly to the area outside the Yama Hall through a teleportation passage, which is not a teleportation array, but a road, and you can reach the Yama Hall by following it all the way. However, black and white impermanence says that this road is called the road of no return, and the consciousness is only in and out, which is a typical one-way street.
Eagle asked, "You say that the point of no return is one-way, so what if we need to go to the Wind Capital City?" ”
Bai Wuchang explained: "We naturally have something to cross the point of no return in reverse, and we will check it for adults when we go to the warehouse to count the items later." ”
"What if you don't take the traversal equipment?"
"We haven't seen anyone really break through this, but it is said that the point of no return is full of fog. It doesn't matter if you are a Da Luo Jin Immortal or an Open Heaven God, once you are lost in the sea of mist, you will never think of it. Any teleportation and location items or spells will not work in the Sea of Mist. ”
"Isn't it okay for a strong beast like a black unicorn?"
"It is true that the Black Qilin can break through the space and cross the eighteen layers of hell, but the Sea of Mist is a special kind of existence, integrating the three realms and six realms in one point. No matter how much you cut the space, you will still end up spinning around in the sea of mist, and you will never be able to get out. ”
Rose asked Bai Wuchang in surprise: "Isn't that even a primordial god like Nuwa Niangniang can be trapped?" ”
"Almost, theoretically, even if the two primordial gods Pangu and Nuwa go in, they will never be able to come out! Moreover, this sea of mist will gradually absorb the power of the soul, and after staying in it for a long time, it will become weaker and weaker, and finally all the three souls and seven spirits will be sucked dry and completely disappear into this world. However, the strength of each person's soul is different, and we will be finished after entering three or five days like this, and I am afraid that it will take more than 10,000 years for the first god like Nuwa Niangniang to be exhausted. ”
"It's such a scary place, it's no wonder it's called the point of no return!"
As we were talking, we suddenly found a memorial gallery outside the main hall, and the archways formed a long passage. The souls of the dead who came to the Yama Hall will be separated when they arrive here, and some of them will disappear directly through the torii array. The rest of them continued towards the Yama Temple.
We walked to the side of the torii array, and saw that two demons had been sent inside. The two ghosts passed under the torii one by one, but their figures became fainter and fainter, and finally disappeared under the last torii. Seeing us appear, a red-robed ghost who was in charge of sorting ghosts ran over. This guy is dressed like an ancient local official, and he has a big brush in his hand, and he is probably a judge judging by the costume.
He ran to us and saluted immediately. Then ask impermanence first: "Two impermanence, these are His Highness Yama and the adults, right?" ”
Hei Wuchang immediately saluted to my side: "This is His Highness Yama in the main hall, this is His Highness the Queen of Yama, and the rest are adults. ”
The ghost official immediately said, "After seeing Yama Luoyan, I am the seventy-fourth judge of the main hall. ”
"Isn't the judge supposed to be in charge of judging the causal cycle of the dead soul in the temple? How did you get here? Judge No. 74 immediately replied, "I am the deacon of the outer court, and I am responsible for sending away the souls of the dead who have faked their deaths. ”
Rose pointed to the archway: "What are these?" ”
"Oh, this is the Ninety-Nine Archway, consisting of a total of Ninety-nine Archways. As long as you walk from one end to the other, you can directly return to the yang and resurrect. ”
"Resurrection? Isn't that a corpse? ”
"No, it's not." The judge quickly explained: "Sometimes some living creatures will enter a state of suspended animation due to trauma or overstimulation, but sometimes they can be rescued. These lives are not yet damned time. Therefore, they can't be pressed away, and they must be sent to the sun as much as possible, otherwise the body will die again because there is no soul for a long time. This archway array is Huanyang Road. Sometimes we go to the human world to catch those powerful ghosts who are on the run, and we also use this. ”
I looked at the team next to me and asked Black Impermanence, "Why are all the souls I see human?" What about other creatures? ”
"The dead soul is the original form, and the human form is the original form, whether it is a bug or an animal, after death, it is a soul in human form. Some erring ghosts are reincarnated into the animal realm, and their souls are still human. ”
"That's right." I nodded and looked at the line on the road. The images of these dead souls are of all ages, men, women, and children, but they are all in human form. All the ghosts walked forward with their heads bowed in glazed eyes, and most of their faces had very painful expressions. There are ghosts in the team who are more disgusting, there are many people who lack arms and legs, and there are even flat like pieces of paper, probably crushed to death by something!
"Do these ghosts look like when they die?" Rose asks about white impermanence.
Bai Wuchang nodded: "Souls also have memories, after an inhuman creature dies, his soul will appear in the same way as when he was last reincarnated as a human. And the age of this image depends on the time of his death as a proportion of the life span of the creature, for example, a bug that can live for 19 years, if he dies in 60 months, then he will become a ghost enough to look like a middle-aged person. And the cause of his death will also be reflected in the soul. Look at the ghost over there, he only has one hand. No matter what kind of creature he is, the soul after death must be missing a leg to die. ”
Su Mei suddenly jokingly asked, "Then if someone is reincarnated as an earthworm, will he be a human stick without limbs when he dies?" ”
Hei Wuchang immediately pointed to the team and said, "There happens to be a ghost who has been reincarnated as an earthworm over there. ”
When we looked at it, it was really a human stick. Below the demon's waist was a long cloud of white mist. Like a snake's tail, and he has no arms, his whole body is a long cylinder, which at first glance looks like a lamp god, but he has no arms.
Hongyue rubbed her arm and looked around: "Why do I feel a little cold?" Didn't the platinum star say that you can keep warm by leaning together? ”
Bai Wuchang immediately replied, "Below the Yama Hall is the entrance to hell, and the cold air comes out from here, so it will be colder. Although relying on the heat of the soul can be warmed, it only reduces the cold, and it is not really not completely afraid of the cold. Except for the undead, normal creatures can't stand it here. ”
"Then let's go and inspect the items and leave as much as we can." Rose also urged: "I'm also a little cold. ”
Because everyone is almost unbearable. So we had to go back and get our things first, and then send the roses away. Rose came down to help me take inventory, otherwise she wouldn't have followed. As for inspecting the hell beneath the Yama Temple. I can only wait until I get the warm jade, and I will inspect it by myself.
The warehouse is in the yard where we just came out, and there will be no thieves in this kind of place, and the warehouse is directly wide open, and there is no door panel. The first is the storage warehouse of the Life and Death Book, and the entire side of this side is used to store the Book of Life and Death. At first, we were thinking that when the Book of Life and Death recorded the birth and death of so many lives, it should be bigger than the National Library, but when we entered the warehouse, we realized that we were completely wrong. There weren't even bookshelves in the warehouse. There were six stone platforms in one large room, each with only a book shining white. All six books are thick, about the size of a computer chassis, and the cover is a white metal. In the middle of the cover of each book there are three big characters - Yin and Yang Zhi. These three characters are arranged vertically, and they are also in traditional Chinese. The words don't look like they're written on the ground, because they glow brilliantly red. If you look closely, you can also find three small words in the corners of the book, which read: "Book of Life and Death." ”
"Why are there only these six books? And the name is so different? ”
Bai Wuchang immediately said: "The Book of Life and Death is the name of the outside world, in fact, it is an additional name, and the real name of the Book of Life and Death is called Yin and Yang Zhi." There are so many souls between heaven and earth. From time to time, new souls and some long-term souls are lost, and if they are written on paper, they can't be put down even if they fill up the underworld! In fact, Yin and Yang Zhi is the real book of life and death. When recording the birth and death of a life in heaven and earth, these six books represent the six realms, and the creatures of the earth and the earth can be remembered as long as they are not. ”
"How many words can I remember in this book?"
Hei Wuchang said: "In fact, the Book of Life and Death is not a book at all. As he spoke, he stepped forward and helped us open one of the books of life and death. As he opened the Book of Life and Death, we found that the Book of Life and Death originally only had two pages, the cover and the back page, although it was so thick, but it could only be opened once in the middle, and on both sides it was the thickness of one page. After the side of life and death was opened, a cloud-like picture immediately appeared in the middle, and then a line of red letters appeared.
Red Moon stretched out her head and read the text. "Hundred-eyed insect demon, killed today?"
"Don't ......!" Black Impermanence wanted to stop Red Moon from reading it, but unfortunately it was too late.
"What's wrong?" Red Moon looked at him nervously.
Bai Wuchang explained: "The Book of Life and Death shows an undetermined destiny, and once it is recited, it becomes certain. This insect demon is really unlucky, and he lost his life inexplicably! ”
"Huh? No way? Is this dead? ”
"The king of Hades wants people to die on the third watch, and never keeps people until the fifth watch. The Book of Life and Death is the magic weapon of Hades, if you can't hook the soul at will, what is it called? ”
"This thing is so powerful, it won't be a set for every Yama Palace, right?" I'm the Eleventh Hall Yama, and if I have a set of these things, it's too worthless, right?
Bai Wuchang laughed: "Actually, my lord, you are taking advantage. This book of life and death is only a set, the ten halls of Yama, you fight for me and no one will give it to others, and then the heavenly court gritted its teeth and took this thing back to be managed by the heavenly court, and the Yama hall sent people every day to copy back the records that needed the soul dementor the next day. But this is our eleventh hall, which belongs to the newly added Yama Palace, and we are the weakest compared to others, so Heavenly Court put this here for us, so no one is embarrassed to say anything. The other Yama halls would send ghost officials every day to copy down the things they needed and take them away. ”
"What if this thing is stolen? What if someone pronounces it like I did just now and pronounces the Jade Emperor to death? ”
"That's impossible. There are so many living beings in the world, and the information displayed in this book of life and death is irregular, if you want to use it to pronounce someone to death, you have to hold the book and wait for that person's name to appear. If you wait until your goal appears, it is estimated that that goal has already died. The Book of Life and Death will only output a list of people who should die within a few days according to the Heavenly Dao every day, and although the destiny of these undecided people can be seen, the scrolling speed is too slow, and it is impossible to find someone alone. ”
"Understood." Rose nodded, "Take us to see something else." I feel like it's getting colder. ”
"Okay."
We quickly ran to the warehouse opposite, there were relatively more things here, but there were only a dozen or so pieces. The Netherworld is not ordinary poor, and the warehouses are clean as if they had just been looted by bandits. Bai Wuchang held the record book to introduce us one by one, and Hei Wuchang gave us a physical comparison. There are only a dozen things in total, and the ones that can be seen are a ghost slaying sword and a soul search mirror, and of course, the warm jade that Hades must have.
The ghost slashing sword is an ordinary sword, the only feature is that the effect of damage to the spirit body is not reduced, and those spirit bodies or ghosts that are ineffective in physical damage are finished. As for the Soul Mirror, this thing can find the specific location of any soul, and the disadvantage is that it does not work for souls with physical bodies. The function of warm jade is more simple, it is just to counteract the cold of hell.
After checking the items, I sent the roses and them away, and only the ghosts could move normally in this place, except for wearing Nuanyu.
