Text Chapter 76: Yama Temple
Encounter the old man in the Yama Temple
The line of life and death is to return your life
"It seems that there are a lot more people who want my life recently, should you line up first?" I looked at this yellow-skinned man and said with a smile.
But this man did not answer my words, he turned around slowly, and said lightly to an old woman behind him, "Give it to me!" ”
His tone was cold, and no matter who he spoke to, his tone was as cold as ice, as if he had treated everyone in this world as if he were dead.
The old woman did not speak, but slowly handed him a large turquoise bowl.
The bowl is huge, surprisingly large, and larger than the largest sea bowl.
The turquoise liquid in the bowl.
Turquoise ghost fire, turquoise bowl, turquoise liquid.
The man slowly handed the big bowl to my eyes and said coldly, "Drink it!" ”
"Why did I drink it?" I said with a smile.
"Because I don't want you dead yet!" The man said coldly.
"Oh? But didn't you still want my life just now? "I'm still smiling.
"I want your life! Not now, though! The man said coldly.
"What if I don't drink it?" I asked.
"If you don't drink it, you'll die on this bridge." The man said coldly.
"Alright! I drink! However......" I have always been a very "easy-going" person, and I also understand the truth that a hero does not suffer immediate losses, of course, he will not get along with himself, so I smiled and continued: "But, my hands are tied, how can I drink?" ”
"I'll feed you!" The man came over to me and put the big bowl of turquoise liquid into my mouth.
The liquid in this bowl is not unpleasant, it is cold and cold, but there is a sweet aftertaste after the mouth, which makes people feel comfortable physically and mentally.
After I drank this cold and turquoise liquid, my body suddenly became very light, and the whole person was like a cloud in a moment, fluttering like a fairy, and an unprecedented sense of comfort spread all over my body.
Even the things in front of him began to become beautiful, the green ghost fire seemed to be the most beautiful dancer at this time, slowly dancing against the wind, the dance was moving and beautiful, the body was enchanting and full of charm.
The man who was as cold as frost looked much more handsome at this time, his face was not so sallow, his eyes seemed to be much gentler, and even his cold face seemed to have a hint of a smile.
Laughter always makes people feel comfortable and happy.
However, there are some laughs that don't make people feel that way.
Sneer.
A sneer, not only will not make people feel happy, but will make people feel chills down their spine, and even cold hands and feet.
At this moment, someone was sneering at me.
His big face was as black as if he had touched the ashes at the bottom of the pot, black shiny, black and scary.
However, it was not just this dark and shiny face that was even more terrifying about him.
This person can't seem to be considered a normal person at all, he is like a Yama king who came out of a drama.
I saw him in a red robe, stepping on thin-soled official boots, holding a big token in his hand, leaning obliquely on the chair behind the public desk, staring at his big eyes like lamps, brushing his wire-like beard, and smiling coldly at me. What's even more frightening is that this guy is actually missing a left ear.
And beside him stood two people, a bull head and a horse face.
They were armed with ghost-headed knives and glared angrily.
"Mighty! Mighty! The two rows of parishioners standing beside me shouted loudly with their canes in their hands.
Then the man dressed like Hades asked in a loud voice, "Who is kneeling in the hall?" ”
"You mean me?" I looked at him and replied leisurely.
"It's you, naturally!" The Hades said loudly.
His voice was like a bell, and every word he said shook my eardrums.
"You brought me here, don't tell you you don't even know who I am?" I laughed.
"How dare such a thief be so rude in front of this official? Come on, the rod will blame the forty boards! The Hades said as he threw the token out of his hand.
"Your Highness! Please be angry! At this time, an old woman walked over from the side and said lightly.
"What are you waiting for? Do you want to intercede for this man? Hades glared at the old woman.
"The old body naturally doesn't dare to intercede for this person, the old body just has a few words to ask this person, I'm afraid that after your punishment, if he can't stand it, wouldn't it be in vain to get him to this Yama Palace?" The old woman laughed.
"Good! You ask! Hades said loudly.
"Lord Xieyan." The old woman bowed and turned to me.
The old woman was dressed in a gray robe, with white hair, and her waist was bent so heavily that her entire upper body was almost parallel to the ground. She was on a black dragon-headed crutch, which made a muffled "dang" sound every time she struck the ground, and it was clear that the crutch was made of metal, and it was definitely not light.
The old woman walked up to me leisurely, smiled and said, "Young man, how about making a deal?" ”
"Buying and selling? What to buy and sell? Why do so many people seem to want to do business with me lately? Do I look like a businessman? Or do I have the word merchant on my head? "She's laughing, and I'm laughing.
"I can guarantee that this deal will only be good for you, not bad!" The old woman said leisurely, "And the most important thing is ......"
"The most important thing?" I asked with a smile.
"The most important thing is that you don't suffer from flesh and skin! Not only that, but we can also bring you back to the world! The old woman said.
"Oh? Is it? Back to earth? Sounds like a good deal! I said.
"It's a good deal! And, it's a great deal! The old woman said.
"If the deal is sought, then your Excellency will not become my benefactor. Then can I dare to ask the benefactor's name? I asked.
"The old man's surname is Meng, and his name is Meng Po! Meng Po's Meng, Meng Po's mother-in-law! The old woman said lightly.
"Oh? Meng Po? I said with a smile.
"Yes! I'm Meng Po! Meng Po said leisurely.
"Then I don't know what deal you want to make with me?" I asked.
"I want something from you!" Meng Po said.
"How many things? How many things? I looked at Meng Po and asked.
"Just a few books! It's not something important! Meng Po deliberately said the words "a few books" very lightly, as if these books really didn't matter at all.
However, after listening to her words, I suddenly laughed.
And laughed so loudly that it was as if I had heard the funniest and funniest joke in the whole world.
"What are you laughing at?" Meng Po looked at me and asked coldly.
"Didn't laugh at anything? I'm just laughing at you! I looked at Meng Po and said.
"Laugh at me? What's so funny about me? Meng Po said suspiciously.
"I'm laughing at why you don't deserve to be a good girl, but you want to be an old woman! I'm laughing at you, you know such a valuable thing, I don't always carry it with me, why do you still come to ask me. ”
"You ......" Meng Po was suddenly stunned when she heard my words, and then, her voice really changed in an instant, not old age, but as beautiful as a lark. Her person naturally changed, her originally rickety waist straightened up all of a sudden, and her originally old and wrinkled face became more beautiful than spring flowers in an instant.
And this person is just laughing.
Looking at me with a smile, after a long time, she suddenly said, "When did you recognize this person as mine?" ”
She really hasn't changed, she still likes to smile before she speaks, not only laughing, but laughing very happily and movingly.
"Just as you walked up to me." I looked at it and said with a smile.
"Oh? I didn't show any flaws at that time! Smiled and said in surprise.
"Naturally, your people don't show any flaws! But......" I said with a deliberate pause.
"But what?" Xiaoxiao asked.
"But the scent of your body betrays you! Everyone has their own unique scent, and you're no exception. Besides, an old woman will never have the scent of a young girl! I said with a smile.
"Looks like I'm underestimating you! You're not just a little bit smart! Said with a smile.
"Wow, yes! Are you done? At this moment, Hades, who had not spoken, suddenly shouted angrily. Since we can't talk about it, come here! Pull it out and cut it off! ”
"Hahaha! Wait a minute! I looked at Hades and laughed suddenly.
"What else do you have to say?" Hades asked.
"Tricks and singing in the Yama Palace, the ghost Yama has a slim previous life! Mountains of gold and silver can be exchanged for lives, who is the king of the black-faced hell! I don't know who wrote this poem, but I still like it! I said with a smile.
"You...... You ......" Hearing my words, the man who looked like the king of Hades was speechless for a while.
"Ghost Yama, others don't recognize you, but I do! Don't forget, who cut off your left ear! I stood up as I spoke, and with a shake of my hands, the rope that had been tied to my hands suddenly and miraculously fell off.
I moved my wrist and said with a grin, "I wanted to see who was going to make a big deal out of me!" Of course, I also wanted to see what it was for. Now that I know what you're for, I won't accompany you. ”
"You want to go?" It wasn't the Ghost Yama King who spoke, but the horse beside him. The tone of this man's voice was as cold as ice.
"If you don't leave, do you want to stay and let you invite me to dinner?" I said with a smile.
"You can go!" The man said as he removed the mask from his face, revealing his waxy yellow face. He looked at me and said coldly, "Leave your things and you're gone." ”
"What's that?" I looked at him and asked.
"Six secret scrolls in your hand." The man said coldly.
"It's the six Secret Scrolls again! How did you know that I had six secret scrolls? I asked, looking at him.
"In this day and age, nothing is kept absolutely secret. Isn't it? The man said coldly.
"That's right!" I nodded.
"So, if you want to go, if you still want to live, you have to give it to me!" The man said.
"What's the use of you wanting it?" I looked at the man and asked, word for word.
"I'm useless, of course, but someone is useful." The man said.
"If you were me, would you carry six books that are so important?" I asked rhetorically.
"Of course not! I'm not that stupid yet! The man said.
"You're not stupid, I don't seem to be stupid, you won't take them with you, and I won't take them with you. Isn't that simple? I said with a smile.
This is indeed a very simple truth, even a stupid person will not carry something that he thinks is very valuable. Valuables should be kept in a place that you think is the safest.
The yellow-skinned man naturally understood this truth, so he didn't speak, he just looked at me coldly.
After a long time, he finally spoke slowly, "You go!" ”
Go, anyone can say this word.
However, the meaning and intensity of each person's words are different.
Although this yellow-faced man simply said these three words, it was as if he had infinite magical power.
The people around you, everything around you, disappeared in an instant.
It was as if they had never been there, and they disappeared without a trace.
Whether it was the ghostly Yama Hall or the Nai He Bridge, which was like an underworld, they all disappeared in the blink of an eye.
I lay down on my bed again, and lay down on the uncomfortable, but warm bed.
I wasn't cold, but I wrapped the quilt around the bed tightly, as if I never wanted to leave the bed again.
At this time, I really didn't want to get up, and suddenly I felt very tired, not only physically tired, but also mentally tired.
Because, I don't know what's going on?
I don't know who's looking for me?
I don't know, they used one poison trick after another to trick me down, why did they let me go so easily?
I don't know if these six books have brought me good luck or bad luck?
I don't know, what will happen to me next?
What's more, I don't know if I'll be able to find the place in the twenty-four secret books.
I took a deep breath, and the cold wind outside the window made my heart even heavier.
I thought, I thought about the person I was fighting against.
If a person goes head-to-head with you, you may not be afraid because you know who your opponent is. However, when your opponent is an invisible person, I think you will be just as miserable as me, as helpless as I am.
This man is like air, he is everywhere and omnipotent.
Ghost Hades, he is a first-class master in the lower eight gates.
In his Yama Palace, there has always been entry and exit, death and life, he has always only recognized money and not people, and he can do anything for money.
In his life, he only listened to the orders of money, but he never refused to listen to the mercy of others.
However, the yellow-faced man just waved his hand, and I was able to walk out of his Yama hall that claimed to be in and out. And although the Ghost Yama King was 10,000 unwilling, he could only look at me without moving.
Hongmen feast, ghost comb hair, Yama Palace...... If you can't make a plan, there is another plan, and this series of poisonous plans makes people almost breathless.
They wanted much more than just these six secret scrolls, what exactly did they want?
Is it the ancient tomb hidden behind the secret scroll?
Or is it a secret hidden inside the tomb?
I do not know.
I know that it is just one terrible ploy after another, one terrible group after another, and one terrible person after another.
I don't know what kind of people I'm going to meet next, what kind of things I'm going to encounter next, I just know that my future is going to be even more dangerous.
I took a deep breath and was going to be covered with my head, I really didn't want to think about it, I really couldn't think of who this person was.
Maybe I shouldn't think about anything now, maybe I should get some good sleep.
But just when I wanted to get some sleep, I couldn't.
Because, at this time, someone had already walked into my room, sat on my bed, and looked at me without moving.
And this person is Xue Qing.
