The place of the Netherworld actually has a name, called Xudu, which is the legendary ghost town. Legend has it that the underworld is bounded by the Lechuan River, the south side of the Lechuan River is a beautiful scenery of lush vegetation and a bright moon, and the north side of the Lechuan River is shrouded in a cloudy fog, and there is a sun in the sky that is always in a total solar eclipse, which is extremely dim.

As to why this is arranged, it remains a mystery.

I floated with the soul of the snake demon for a long time, and unconsciously came to a pass, there is an archway at the pass, and there are three powerful characters on it - Ghost Gate Pass.

When you arrive at the Ghost Gate, the ghosts can't look back, because the road they walk will be swallowed by the Netherworld, and all they see is the endless abyss, which will return to normal after entering the Ghost Gate. That's why we need soul incense and a guide rope, otherwise we will definitely be trapped in the Yin Division forever.

The ghost gate pass is very lively, and the bull head and horse face are standing at the pass, commanding his subordinates to lead the ghosts in a line into the pass.

The bull head and horse face do not specifically refer to one or two yin differences, but a type of official position, which is equivalent to the team leader of the yin difference, also called yin handsome. There are ten official positions of the same kind: ghost king, day tour, night tour, impermanence, bull head, horse face, leopard tail, bird's beak, fish gills, and wasps. Each Yin Shuai has a number of Yin Differences, these small Yin Differences do not need to be transformed, they still maintain their own body, and when they accumulate a certain amount of merit, they can also be promoted to Yin Shuai. Theoretically, the bull head and horse face and the black and white impermanence are equal, but the responsibilities are different, and they are subordinate to the four major judges.

However, the hierarchy of the underworld doesn't matter to me, all I have to do is find Lu Ju. We were looking at the ghost team in front of the gate in a daze, when we heard a yin nearby shouting: "What are those two little ghosts doing, hurry up and line up!" ”

I looked around and found that he was talking about us, so I quickly dragged the snake demon to line up. Although we are only here to find people, we can't mess with the rules, in case we get into trouble, I'm afraid we're going to become real ghosts.

Master told me that the strength of ordinary Yin Difference is high and low, but the weakest one surpasses that of the Powerful Ghost. If you reach the level of Yin Shuai, all of them are ruthless goods who can kill and deter green ghosts in seconds. So I have to keep a low profile, because the strength doesn't allow it!

As the saying goes, the king of Hades told you to die on the third watch, who would dare to keep someone until the fifth watch. The people who were sent to detain the soul were all Yin Shuai and his group of Yin Poor, so their strength must be strong, otherwise they will be blamed by Hades for delaying time. Then I suddenly remembered a joke, and said to the snake demon: "Once upon a time, there was a Mr. Yin and Yang who calculated the time of his death, so he deliberately slowed down the clock in the house for an hour before he died, and then took out the battery. It happened to come to the soul detention Yin Cha did not bring a watch, it thought that it was early, so it waited at Mr. Yin Yang's house, and waited until the next morning, and the clock did not run out. ”

"Can it still be like this?" The snake demon asked with a puzzled expression.

"Well, that's a joke." I didn't expect her to take it seriously.

"Oh." The snake demon nodded ignorantly, "Should I laugh?" ”

"Don't bother......" I was speechless, is it that funny?

After waiting for a while, we finally lined up to enter the gate, and were assigned to a black-faced man, who escorted a dozen imps by himself, presumably to be sent to the Hades Hall for trial. During the period, you have to pass through the Wangxiang Terrace, which is specially used for the ghost to recall the relatives in his hometown for the last time, and when the trial is over, he will cross the Nai He Bridge to drink Meng Po soup

and forget everything.

There was a long queue in front of the Hades Palace, and the little ghosts went in one by one to be judged, and it was estimated that it would be an hour before my turn came. Shen Tuming told me that I could just take advantage of this time to slip away, and just find a bad guy to bribe, and if I was lucky, he could take me directly to see Lu Ju.

"Young man, what are you looking for?" The old ghost in front of me suddenly accosted me.

"Find a bad guy." I didn't think much of it, because my whole focus was on finding the yin.

"Get it for me." The old ghost said again.

I grabbed an axe, only to realize that something was wrong, because it was getting heavier and heavier, and I couldn't hold it anymore. I glanced at the old ghost, and the folds on the old ghost's face burst out with laughter, and said with a smile: "Silly boy, this is the murder weapon I used to commit suicide, I can't reincarnate with it, you can go find the next unlucky ghost!" ”

"Hey, you old Deng, thanks to your axe, you're going to use a steel fork % I'm still a leap earth!"

But how could this little thing stump me, although I am a soul, but when the spell of the underworld is still there, the axe will fly back into the hands of the old ghost after a little spell casting. The old ghost who was whistling happily one second, and the next second he was so shocked that his jaw was about to drop. It knew that I was not an ordinary person, not an ordinary ghost to be precise, and apologized to me again and again and begged for mercy, for fear that I would cast a spell to do it again.

I don't have time to take care of it, it just so happens that another yin errand is leading the team over, and it has a fish head, which looks like a handsome fish gills.

The snake demon and I hurriedly chased after it, and briefly told it what it wanted to see Lu Ju. The gills were not polite to the two of us, and reached out to make a gesture to ask for money, but fortunately, I had already prepared, and handed out the dark coins one after another, but this guy was still shaking his head.

Seeing that the dark coins in my pocket were gone, and the gills were still reaching out for money, I was a little unhappy: "What do you mean, can this be done?" ”

"It can be done." The gills said indifferently, "But it's not enough." ”

"A few more?"

"Just now, double it."

I said in my heart that you are too greedy to chop the head of a pepper fish, and the dark coins I just gave it are enough for a ghost to live in Yudu for three years and five years. No way, who told us to ask for help. Luckily, I had already discovered that although my soul was out of my body at the moment, I was not dead, so my contract with the demon servants was still there, and I was able to telepathically communicate with them.

I asked Xiaobai to burn some more paper money for me, maybe the distance was far away, and the sound transmission was relatively slow, and after waiting for half an hour, a large number of dark coins appeared in my pocket. So we found the gills again, and this time it finally agreed to take us to see Lu Ju.

"Thank you, I'll pay you back when I get back." The snake demon said suddenly and gently.

I suddenly said angrily: "Use you to pay it back!" ”

Where will I spend the money if you pay me back? You're almost more annoying than Xiaobai! I said in my heart.

What happened after that can be briefly summarized. Lu Ju was very cold, and after seeing that we took out the edict, he helped us realize our wish without saying a word, and then took the edict back. The snake demon saw his mother's appearance in this life in the Sansheng Stone, and he didn't know whether he was moved or sentimental, and tears flowed down his eyes, like dew on a flower.

In this life, the mother of the snake demon has become a rich daughter, who has just married and had children

The family is happy. And she is still so kind, often helping the poor, and she also founded a love fund club. It seems that Bai Qi did not lie, the grievances between them have long been resolved, and it is the snake demon who misunderstood his mother's intentions.

Seeing that the Sansheng Stone is so easy to use, I suddenly want to see my parents' lives in this life, and I don't know if they are dead or alive. But Lu Juan told me that if I don't know my name and identity, I can't find it, and the book of life and death is not a family tree, and I can't check others through myself. And I don't have an edict anymore, so he has no reason to help me.

"Under what circumstances would you send an edict?" I asked.

"It depends on the mood." Lu Juan replied coldly.

Well, I have nothing more to say......

Lu Juan knew that we were not real ghosts, and cast a spell to send us out of the ghost gate, and then I asked Xiaobai to pull the guide rope, and under the joint guidance of the guide rope and soul incense, we successfully returned to the yang world.

The basilisk is also very reasonable, she releases the little hedgehogs back and makes peace with the old hedgehog spirit. Both of them were very grateful to me, although I didn't think I had done anything, and this trip was more like a play.

Later, I asked Bai Qi, what happened to the village chief in the story?

Bai Qi said: "After that incident, he didn't dare to ask his wife and children to go back to the village, so his wife and children could only live elsewhere alone. What is even more tragic is that the Qing government announced the abolition of the imperial examination system the following year, and the village chief died alone and depressed for the rest of his life. ”

I think this must be karma. The village chief will take revenge, and all this is the punishment he deserves.

I turned my head to look at the snake demon again, and after removing the hatred in my heart, she became more charming than before. She happened to be looking at me too, and we immediately looked at each other.

I suddenly blushed and asked embarrassedly, "That...... What's next for you? ”

The snake demon's smart eyes rolled, not knowing what to think, but he shook his head and said, "I don't know." In the past, the only goal of my life was to keep cultivating and then avenge my mother, but now I have no goal all of a sudden, and I suddenly feel so lost. ”

Xiaobai said with great interest: "Sister Snake Demon, why don't you follow the master too, and in the future, we will kill demons and catch ghosts and collect monsters together!" ”

I knew that Xiaobai was going to incite her again. Seriously, I really didn't think about taking the snake demon as a demon servant, firstly, her strength is too strong, even above me, and secondly, she is so beautiful, I think it is a bit of a hooligan to consider this matter......

Huang Tao also said: "Yes, sister, you are only a little older than me, but you can already transform into a human form." I also hope that you can stay and guide us in our cultivation. ”

In terms of pure age, the snake demon is less than forty years old, and as a python, she is already at an advanced age, but as a demon, her good life has just begun. In contrast, Huang Tao has also cultivated for nearly thirty years, but he has not yet touched the threshold of transforming into a human, and his talent is indeed much worse than that of the snake demon. If you can get the guidance of the snake demon, it can be regarded as a creation for it.

"But why do you take so many demon servants?" The basilisk looked at me puzzled.

I didn't know how to answer for a while, the real reason was actually a "dumb riddle" of Master Bai, but I didn't know the deep meaning behind it.
