Chapter 24: Take a trip to Huangquan Road
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 the birth and death of a soul must pass through the local land temple.
Although the land is a lowly god, it is a well-known god, and everyone does not dare to collide.
It is also an important messenger of communication between all walks of life in the world and the divine realm, from the transmission of expressions to the incineration of worshipping money, it is inseparable from the help of the father-in-law of the land.
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 are two passages on both sides of the Land Gonggong God Case, one is the main road directly to the Western Elysium, and the other is the Huangquan Road to the Netherworld.
One pass is bright, the other is pitch black.
I saw the land temple, I knew that I had passed the yin, I quickly fished my hand, and sure enough, I grabbed a red line, the red line does not know how long, leading to the dark Huangquan Road, I hurriedly walked over, stepped on the Huangquan Road, I felt that the whole person was different, there was an indescribable weird feeling, no matter how I looked, I couldn't see what I was familiar with.
Looking upwards on Huangquan Road, you can't see the sun, moon and stars, looking down, you can't see the dust of the land, looking forward, you can't see Yangguan Road, looking back, you can't see your relatives and friends.
I was a little nervous, and I felt very cold, I saw that there were many people walking on the Huangquan Road, they were very numb, their eyes were empty, there were old and young, I often heard people say that the Huangquan Road is not easy to walk, there are no old and young on the Huangquan Road, it turns out that this is indeed the case.
At this time, the soul of the deceased cannot be called a ghost, only when you enter the city of Xudu can you call a real ghost, sometimes you buy people to buy a life and rob the soul, they are all on this Huangquan Road to grab the soul, because you have not yet entered the city of the city, everything is still a turnaround.
I just want to grab the soul on this Huangquan Road, I dragged my hand back, kept dragging, and dragged it over and over again, I don't know how long I walked, and what I saw along the way also surprised me.
Some souls from all walks of life cry and refuse to go, some are full of rhetoric to please the Yin soldiers, and some are confused and go straight all the way, it is really a variety of life, but no matter how the creatures beg and how to use all their resources to escape, they can't break free from the iron chain of death in the hands of the Yin soldiers, but strange to say, I walked on this Huangquan Road, but there were no Yin soldiers to entangle me.
When I was puzzled, I saw a person walk over my red rope, and suddenly it burned, and I watched the ghost burn into a ghost fire and disappear in front of my eyes, and then I knew the use of this red rope.
I don't dare to delay, my time has no limit, but Zhang Furong's time is limited, six hours is very short, these six hours Yin soldiers can't hook her soul, but once the hour passes, the mana of the sunflower blood cloth is invalid, and Zhang Furong can no longer return her soul.
I dragged the red rope all the way, and I didn't know how long I walked, and suddenly I saw a stone tablet with three big characters written on it: "Wangxiangtai".
Walked out of Huangquan Road and went to Wangxiangtai.
As the old saying goes, once you arrive at Wangxiangtai, you can't come back to your hometown from afar.
A high stone platform, emitting bursts of gloomy light, sitting and lying on the road to turn around, at this time my red rope also came to the end, I saw a woman in a red flower dress standing there in front of the Wangxiang platform, looking left and right, I breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately did not go to the Wangxiang platform, otherwise it would be over.
The so-called walked to the Wangxiang Terrace, there is almost no possibility of resurrection, I hurriedly ran over, pulled the red rope, Zhang Furong's hand was pulled up by me, she was very happy to see me, and said to me: "I'm so scared, there is no one I know here, I stand in front of this stage, I heard my mother call me, my father called me, I don't know whether to go up."
I grabbed Zhang Furong's hand, wrapped the red thread around her wrist, and said to her, "Come with me, I'll take you home."
Zhang Furong looked very melancholy and said to me: "What to do when you go home, it's better to die for a hundred years, to be guided alive, no one wants it, it's better to be reincarnated and be a new person."
I felt guilty when I heard this, and I said to her, "Who said no one wants you?" You see, I am wearing a red robe and coat, you are wearing a bride redwood, we have been married in the church, and the cave house is full of candles, and you are my bride, and I have come to you specially. ”
Zhang Furong listened to my words, her face smiled very happily, but then she started crying, crying very miserably, her voice can be transmitted to ten miles and eight miles, especially empty, at this time I know what a ghost cry is, she said to me: "Official, are you also dead, otherwise how can you find me?"
I appeased Zhang Furong, but I couldn't tell her, lest other ghosts hear it, and it would be trouble for them to come and pester us at that time, so I said, "Come with me, I'll take you home." I took Zhang Furong and stepped onto the lookout platform, and I said to her: "Follow me all the time, don't look back, don't look back no matter what."
Zhang Furong nodded, I pulled her to run wildly on the lookout, along the way met a lot of lonely ghosts, they pestered us, but they were blocked by the red rope out of our body, even which Yin soldiers are the same, we looked at the lookout platform twice, and suddenly heard a burst of dog barking, the barking is getting louder and louder, and the people who listen to it are more and more creepy.
Zhang Furong was very scared, hugging me and shivering, I don't know why, I was so scared, I was not afraid of dogs before, but at this time, when I heard the sound of dogs, my body couldn't help shaking.
The two of us walked cautiously to the front, and saw a stone tablet at the intersection in front of us, with the words "Vicious Dog Ridge" written on it, I walked in with Zhang Furong, I have heard of such a place as Vicious Dog Ridge, and there is also a place called Jinji Ridge.
I heard that the old tooth dog will never sleep on the hot kang head, and the golden rooster will never sleep on its stomach, because the dog and the chicken are two very important mediums of communication between the yang and the underworld.
As soon as I entered the Vicious Dog Ridge, I saw groups of vicious dogs, with fierce eyes, full of steel teeth, and fur as hard as steel wire, biting madly at all souls, and refusing to let go without tearing off their legs and feet.
Souls from all walks of life tried their best to escape the iron mouth and steel teeth of this vicious dog, some were bitten off their legs, some were torn off their feet, some became one-armed, and some became severed hands.
Zhang Furong screamed in fright, like those bitten souls, ghosts cry wolf howls, I think it's hard to be a man, it's even harder to be a ghost, and if you die, you will be bullied by these evil ghosts, and I was thinking about this, a group of vicious dogs also bit me and Zhang Furong crazy, seeing this scene, I understood why Yan Liu wanted to give me an iron rod, I thought, as soon as I raised my hand, an iron rod in my hand, I smashed towards the mad dog, and immediately beat the mad dog and screamed.
I saw that the Vicious Dog Ridge was full of broken limbs, stained and bloody, and there were very few people who could live the Vicious Dog Ridge with their whole body, and I felt some pity in my heart, so I didn't dare to help them, but I suddenly remembered Yan Liu's words, there were lonely souls and wild ghosts below, and it was not my turn to be a good person, so I hurriedly hugged Zhang Furong and walked forward, not daring to stay longer.
I quickly crossed the Vicious Dog Ridge with Zhang Furong, and saw a mountain peak, knowing that this is Jinji Ridge, the two ridges in front of me, the straight peaks will climb over little by little, for example, the image will climb from the back of the chicken to the comb of the chicken.
Entering Jinji Mountain, a group of roosters swooped in front of them, the iron beak and the vulture's mouth are as good as they are, and they have to blind the eyes of the soul at a time, and the inciting wings make you unable to open your eyes, and the sharp claws are more like the soul hook in the hands of the big black master, one claw can make you open the flesh and skin, go deep into the internal organs, and don't scratch out your heart and liver.
Seeing this, I hurriedly took out a handful of grains from my pocket and threw it on the ground, this is the matter, which golden rooster let me two, where do I dare to stay with Zhang Furong more, let alone be a good person, and go all the way.
Walk out of the vicious dog ridge, turn over the Jinji Peak, suddenly there is a sea of people, colorful flags fluttering, as if holding some kind of party, there are twisting Yangge, there are dragon and lion dances, lively and extraordinary.
Zhang Furong and I wanted to take a break, but I didn't dare to be careless in my heart, I saw which enthusiastic people greeted the souls who walked in with us, let them eat and drink, when which people sat down to enjoy, suddenly which enthusiastic people tore them alive, dragged their limbs off, and pressed them on their bodies.
When Zhang Furong and I saw this, we were frightened and hurried away, and sure enough, there was no one in the Netherworld who could be trusted.
Continuing forward, there is a pavilion in front of it, and there is a deep well in the pavilion that is bursting with boiling spring water.
Zhang Furong saw that many people were queuing up to drink water, so she said that she was thirsty and wanted to drink water, I hurriedly stopped her and didn't let her go, the pavilion was the Ecstasy Palace, and the spring water that came out was the Ecstasy Water.
At the same time, I drank the ecstasy water, even if the next Daluo Immortal was the next session, it would be difficult to return to the sun, and only those who could become ghosts with peace of mind and wait for them to fall.
I didn't tell Zhang Furong why, I stopped her and left, and she complained a few times, walked out of the Ecstasy Palace, and really entered the underworld, looking up at the stars, sun and moon, and looking down at the dust of the land.
Zhang Furong and I saw a city with the word "Xudu" written on it, and Zhang Furong and I entered the city of Xudu, which had two city gates, and between the two gates and the first gate, there were two lights floating high in the air, but they did not move. One is bright, the other is dim and dark.
Countless lonely souls and wild ghosts have been brought into the dark light, but I took Zhang Furong to the bright light, because we are not really dead, there is no need for interrogation, we have to find the soul cliff as soon as possible.
Entering the passage of the bright light, there were countless Yin soldiers to stop us, but the red light emitted by the red rope made them unable to get close, I ran all the way with Zhang Furong, walking on the road, the whole ground was a jade repair road, Zhang Furong wanted to turn back, but I was hugged tightly, so that she couldn't move.
