According to Master, the current King of Yama should be more than 400 years old by this year, and with the bonus of his Seventh Yin Gong cultivation, it is absolutely no problem to live to be 500 years old. Moreover, he eats the yin meals cooked by the ghost food gate every day, as well as various secret medicines of the underworld, which will definitely prolong his life for hundreds of years.

The most important point is that there is also a magic weapon against the sky, the "Book of Life and Death", which is in his hands. In this way, if King Yama wants to live to be a thousand years old, he may only need to add a few strokes to his life and death book!

After the civil and military generals shouted "Long live", the king of Yama stepped steadily onto the throne from the back of the palace. He sat down on the Qilong chair, waved his hand very casually, and said, "Everyone Aiqing, sit!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

At this time, I had the first chance to see the legendary lord of the underworld, King Yama, who ruled the underworld and was in charge of the cycle of life and death, and was half a ghost and half god!

The Emperor of the Yang Dynasty honors the color yellow, while the Lord of the Netherworld worships the black. Therefore, the dragon robe worn by the king of Yama is mainly black, and it is embroidered with seven black Jiao with teeth and claws. The crown he wears on his head is bright red, hanging down twelve times, like a beaded curtain, and the style of clothing is quite Qin and Han style.

The king of Yama is tall and slightly rich, but his steps are steady, and he has a majesty of the Son of Heaven when he raises his hands and feet. However, the twelve rays hanging down from the crown covered his face, and I couldn't see his appearance clearly from a distance, only seeing that he had a long and thick beard, and his beautiful hair was not inferior to that of the Hanshou Pavilion Marquis.

"This banquet is specially designed to celebrate the achievements of the two marshals and the warriors in the army. The Yin army set out on the salt desert this time, the road is far away, and it is in danger, but you can still break the bandit army and destroy the bandits' nest, which is really rare! King Yama took the lead in raising the wine cup in front of him and said loudly: "Come on, come on, let's give you a glass of merit first!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty! That's our duty! ”

Everyone picked up their glasses and drank.

"Day trip!"

"The minister is here!"

King Yama suddenly called the name of Marshal Riyou again, and said with a smile: "You have taken the first place this time, one cup is not enough!" I think I'll have to drink at least three more glasses! ”

"Yes, yes! Then continue to drink! The marshal of the day tour was honestly frightened, and picked up the wine jug and poured wine into his own wine glass.

"Hey, it's not fun for you to drink alone!" King Yama quipped, "Why don't you ask the first of my left hand to drink with you?" ”

The first place on the left hand naturally refers to the head of the Wenchen, Wei Zheng, the judge of the Reward Division. When the white-bearded old man Wei Zheng heard this, he smiled bitterly, and said to King Yama: "Your Majesty has come to tease the old minister again!" Knowing that the old minister was not strong enough to drink, he had to drink four glasses in a row as soon as he came up. Otherwise, how about letting Judge Zhong and Marshal Riyou drink? ”

"I'm fine! Come on, come on, I'll drink it for Wei Lao'er! Zhong Kui, who was sitting next to Wei Zheng, immediately picked up the wine glass very boldly, and tilted his neck to make the first glass without waiting for King Yama to agree. Then he poured himself two more glasses, and the marshal of the day tour opposite had to follow suit three glasses.

"Hahaha!" King Yama was not annoyed, he only pointed at Wei Zheng and laughed: "It's like this every time!" Judge Wei always runs away from drinking, and Judge Zhong always grabs wine to drink! Since you don't want to drink with the marshal of the day tour, then the marshal of the night tour should always come and drink with you, right? ”

"Uh, Judge Lu?" Wei Zheng turned his gaze for help to Lu Zhidao, who was sitting in third place.

Lu Zhidao really knows how to do it, and quickly picked up the wine glass and said to Marshal Night Tour: "Marshal Night Tour, the two of us are old acquaintances, I will toast you three glasses on behalf of Judge Wei, okay?" ”

"Very good! Very good! Please! "The marshal of the night tour is also an old man, so he made a favor and drank three cups with Lu Zhidao.

But in this way, Cui Yu, who ranked fourth in Wenchen, was very embarrassed. The two people sitting in front of him had already drunk, and his qualifications were not as good as Wei Zheng's, so it was not okay if he didn't take the initiative to express himself. But the two marshals on the other side who were at the same level as him had drunk the day tour and the night tour, so did he take the initiative to deign to find a yin future to toast?

Fortunately, King Yama helped him solve this embarrassment, and asked out loud first: "Which one is the new general Zhai Zisheng who has achieved the first merit?" ”

I was stunned, I didn't expect to be suddenly named by King Yama, and hurriedly got up and responded, "The minister is here!" ”

"Oh, still so young? Sure enough, it's a young talent! King Yama praised twice, and said, "You should also drink three cups, so you can salute Judge Cui on the other side!" ”

"Yes!" I picked up my wine glass and said respectfully to Cui Yu: "Judge Cui, the last general will toast you three glasses!" ”

Cui Yu smiled reluctantly, said the word "good", and then drank three glasses of wine by himself. But after drinking, his face drooped, obviously still not very happy.

Also unhappy should be Gan Sheng, who sits in the third place of the generals. He was the oldest Yin general, but he was ignored by King Yama intentionally or unintentionally, and he jumped out of the way and called my name first. However, King Yama is the absolute boss here, and no matter how many complaints there are in his heart, he can only pretend to be a person who is fine.

Then the king of Yama called on the names of several more men and forced them to drink. It seems that he likes to persuade others to drink very much, and he likes to pry others to drink when he doesn't drink much, and it seems that he usually does a lot of work.

Before I came, I thought that King Yama would have a high probability of being a gloomy and old-fashioned, unsmiling, and eccentric old immortal, but I didn't expect his personality to be so out-of-the-box and easy-going, completely subverting the perception of all kinds of rumors about him!

Come to think of it, that's a real rarity. When a person's Yin Gong has reached the highest level and his power has reached the peak of the underworld, he must be very lonely and lonely. This is also the reason why ancient emperors liked to call themselves "widows".

After letting all the ministers present drink for a round, King Yama was finally satisfied, and gestured to the chief chamberlain beside him, saying, "Call the food in the imperial dining room!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The chief chamberlain was none other than the one who had made the decree at the Ghost Gate Pass before. He then dragged out his voice and ordered outside the hall: "It's time for a feast!" ”

As if it had been rehearsed a long time ago, as soon as the words of the chief attendant fell, dozens of waiters from the imperial dining room lined up from outside the hall with various dishes. At this time, the first dish is served cold, which is also the fourth product.

When a waiter waited for the dishes to be served, he reported the name of the dish: "Four cold dishes: sweet and sour radish, ** milk melon, fragrant yin vegetables, and pork bones in sauce!" ”

"Everyone, let's eat!" King Yama raised his hand and gestured.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After a simple and polite sentence, everyone can finally start eating. As soon as I looked at these four cold dishes, it was obviously different from the previous refreshments, and it was really a yin meal!

I sandwiched two pieces of each and tasted it, well, the taste was delicious, the yin qi was strong, and it looked like it was made by the master, and it was not lower than my level. You know, this is just a cold dish, and it is impossible for a real chef to cook these small dishes himself, and they are usually handled by low-level chefs.

The cooking skills of the low-level chefs in the imperial dining room of the underworld are already so exquisite, which shows that the chef's skills may have already been superb. It also made me look forward to the main course later.

In addition to the dishes, the wine is also a special imperial wine, which is more mellow than the dream of death, but I don't know what the stamina is? I've drunk with Guan Mao once before, so I can't make a fool of myself in the Yama Palace this time!

But King Yama raised his glass again and let everyone have a drink with him, and I had to deal with it. Luckily, this time he didn't call me by name and let me toast three times in a row.

Halfway through the cold meal, the waiter in the imperial dining room continued to serve the food. It should be an appetizer at this time.

The appetizer is specially designed to set the stage for the main course at the back, and it is also very particular. It can not only allow the guests to feast, but also not take away the role of the main dish in the back, and generally focus on the special dishes with unique styles.

"Four appetizers: eyeless shrimp rolls, coral deer chips, palace burst rabbit ears, sweet and sour stone lotus!"

Well, the ingredients, recipe and taste of this appetizer are really better than cold dishes!

Compared with cold dishes, the ingredients used in appetizers are obviously more particular. Eyeless shrimp and coral deer are unique animals that are special products of a certain place in the underworld, and the rabbit ears selected for the palace explosion rabbit ears also come from the long-eared rabbits domesticated by the underworld itself, and only the ears are taken without rabbit meat. Not to mention the stone lotus, which is especially troublesome to make, but once it is cooked into a yin meal, it tastes excellent.

The courtiers all started their chopsticks, and as soon as the dishes were entered, they couldn't help but praise the superb cooking skills of the imperial dining room.

After the appetizer also came up, there was inevitably another round of persuasion between the monarch and the minister. King Yama still only drank one glass, but kept urging the courtiers below to drink more.

After three rounds of drinking, it is considered to be a warm-up at this point. As a result, the Wenchen and the military generals were finally selected by the king of Yama into two factions to fight for wine. Wenchen took Zhong Kui and Niu Tou Ma Mian as the main forces, and there were many people who could drink from the generals, especially Shen Turen, who was the most excited.

However, his position was too low, and the ministers on the other side looked down on him. The court banquet is no more important than the family banquet between relatives and friends, and it is the most important level. Your little yin school wants to toast a judge, and it must be boring.

My situation is a bit delicate. As a newly promoted general, my position can only be regarded as not up or down. However, when King Yama mentioned my name, the ministers on the other side seemed to think that I had the political potential to become a "celebrity". So except for Wei Zheng and Cui Yu, almost everyone had at least one drink with me.

Shen Turen, who could only drink alone, vented his stomach full of grievances on the dishes, whether it was cold dishes or appetizers, he ate all the fine dishes, and almost had to lick the plate before stopping.

"Hahaha!" King Yama also found out that Shen Turen's "bold" appearance was eaten, and laughed and persuaded: "Don't worry, then the main course!" ”

As soon as the waiter in charge of announcing the name of the dish heard what King Yama said, he immediately shouted: "Four dishes of imperial dishes: skewered fried sea shells, crispy roasted suckling porpoise, freshly steamed dragon eggs, and transparent fish soup!" ”

Wow, these four main dishes are even more remarkable!
