Chapter 575: Huangquan Road 4
"Alas, this world is really too chaotic."
I looked at a man in amazement, with an iron face and sideburns, a strange appearance, very majestic, holding a register in his left hand, the words written on it I did not recognize, carrying a sword, holding a pen in his right hand, wearing a purple robe, glaring angrily, his lips were closed, there would be no ghost coming, he sat behind the ghost gate, and I walked in a little.
This is Zhong Kui, I recognized it at a glance, and I was very sure that he was Zhong Kui.
"Master Zhong, there have been wars in the world this year, alas, it's also time, the ghost team brought by the Impermanent Brothers is coming back soon, you have worked hard, you will come to my house later, let's have a good drink."
"Ma Mian, it's also this season, and it's our turn to punish the division again."
I saw a horse-faced ghost with a big hammer behind his back, talking to Zhong Kui, he should be a horse-faced.
"Last time, I remember it was Lord Wei's Shang Zenji."
"Yes, Ma Mian, more than two hundred years have passed, and now that the world is in turmoil, and there are evil ghosts at work, I want to resign from the position of the Punishment Division and go to the world."
"What's the matter, Master Zhong, are your hands itching again? There are so many evil spirits in the world......"
"Alas, this is a bad word, Ma Mian, since the old man entered the ghost road, every ghost must be caught, now in the world, I heard that there are seven evil ghosts that make trouble, very powerful, I heard Bai Wuchang say, those seven evil ghosts, are not very ordinary, it is better to catch Yin Cao as soon as possible."
Zhong Kui said, I seem to understand that the seven evil ghosts who are making trouble are the seven ghost venerables.
At this time, I saw a lot of ghosts, escorting ghosts to come over to make errands.
There is also black and white impermanence in it, but something is wrong, black impermanence supports white impermanence.
"Bai impermanence, you are ......"
Zhong Kui looked at Bai Wuchang in surprise when he saw it, and then walked over.
"Your ghost is badly damaged, who can hurt you?"
"Master Zhong, I was careless, I was injured by an evil ghost named Shen Yanjun."
"There is such a thing." Zhong Kui said, and in an instant, he pulled out the sword on his back, showed a wild smile, and helped the beards on both sides of his cheeks.
"I'll go back now and ask Lord Yama for my resignation, I'm bound to go to the Yang Realm."
"Zhong Ye ......" The horse face and black and white impermanence behind him all shouted, but Zhong Kui's eyes were full of excitement.
After Zhong Kui entered the Ghost Gate Pass and left, I saw a lot of ghosts, and directly threw the ghosts into the forest on both sides of Huangquan Road, which had begun to take shape.
A large number of lonely souls and wild ghosts wandered on both sides of Huangquan Road, constantly whimpering, floating over, and near the ghost gate, the black and white impermanence and horse face at this time were quite embarrassing.
"Brother No Help, are these ghosts really like this?"
"Brother Bai, it's not like you don't know, now the city is overcrowded, and Lord Bian Cheng is too busy, only the two sides of this Huangquan Road can temporarily replace the punishment of this person who died in vain."
Hei Wuchang quietly looked at the whimpering ghosts and wild ghosts.
"The world is impermanent, that's it, there is nothing in vain before death, and we are not allowed to step into the underworld after death, we just have to do things, let's go, take the ghost, and go to deal with the Lord Yama, Zhong Ye is afraid that he has returned to the Yama Palace now."
With the continuous change of time, on both sides of Huangquan Road, except for the place close to the Nai He Bridge, the flowers on the other side have disappeared, and many people who died in vain have been thrown here for no reason to accept the criminal law of the so-called Yang Shou.
At this time, this forest has a name, the Grievance Forest, because once a ghost passes by, there will be a full cry around it, no one cares, no one manages, and the ghosts put into it here have been forgotten, hovering on both sides of this original path that was meant to guide the soul.
Day after day, year after year, the big black strange trees, with their intricate roots, kept growing and spreading, and the forest grew bigger and bigger, and at first the head could be seen, but as time went on, the forest had completely become a forest.
Subsequently, the city of vain death was restored to normal, and many of the vain dead were thrown into the vain city, and this forest, as a substitute for the vain city, has been abandoned.
However, a strange thing happened, there were a large number of ghosts, and when passing through this road, there was an accident, which was eaten by the forest, not only the ghosts, but also the prisoners who were escorted, and they were swallowed up day by day.
Yin Cao finally noticed all this, and it was at that time that I was outside the Ghost Gate Pass, and I saw that the ghosts who came out would pass through the back of the Ghost Gate, a circle of flashing red light, and since then, there have been no ghosts, swallowed up by the forests on both sides of Huangquan Road.
Occasionally, there will be prisoners like Boss Zhang, in a hurry, into the weeping forest, I don't know, I can stay in this memory space, I made a decision, I plan to pass through the ghost gate, go directly to the Yin Cao, I don't know why, I always, have such thoughts.
Behind the Ghost Gate, it has become a desolate place, with no grass, black soil, mixed with different colors of the sky, I looked at the bull head and horse face guarding the door, as well as the judge, stepped into the Ghost Gate.
The moment I entered, I was amazed, and the scenery I had seen before was completely different, and I had a very peculiar feeling in my heart, as if someone was guiding me, so that I stepped into the ghost gate.
I watched in amazement, I was standing on an avenue paved with huge cyan stone slabs, and at the end of this avenue, there was a palace, on which I could not see the words very clearly, all around, there were tall and straight poplar trees, verdant and green, and at this time the sky overhead, was blue, and looked very comfortable.
I walked towards the main hall in front of me step by step, as if someone was guiding me.
Gradually, I approached the main hall, the main hall has a staircase to go up, it looks brilliant, on the hall card of the main hall, except for a five-character that I can understand, I don't know the other words, it is the Yama Hall of the five halls of Yama, this is the first thought in my heart, I saw a lot of ghosts, gathered outside the main hall.
"Bao Heizi, old man, I'm going to go to the Yang World now, what can you do to me?"
"Zhong Zhengnan, how can you be rude in front of Lord Yama."
I hurriedly stepped up the steps, walked past the ghosts, and then finally saw a man with a face as black as carbon, in the middle of his forehead, with a crescent moon birthmark, a beard three feet long, and a dignified and righteous face, sitting in the hall, he was wearing a black robe, embroidered with a golden dragon, and in the store, I also saw three gate knives on the left, a dragon head, a tiger head and a dog head.
"Wait."
The five halls of Yama finally spoke, the voice was like a bell, and there was a majesty in his gestures, and the ghost official who was talking next to him stopped talking, and at this time, I saw that next to the five halls of Yama, there was a ghost official who was holding a sword in his hand, holding it in his hand, with a handsome face, and never said a word.
Zhong Kui was laughing loudly.
"Bao Heizi, I think you were in the first hall back then, because you secretly let those good people who died unjustly and had not finished their longevity, and when you returned to the yang world, you were demoted to this fifth hall, I don't think I will see you for a few years, how can you go with those old bastards."
Zhong Kui looked at the Five Palaces Yama with great disdain.
"Zhong Zhengnan, do personnel, carry out the mandate of heaven, you and I have different positions, the old man knows that you are eager to kill ghosts, but now, Yin Cao, it is an eventful autumn......"
"Enough, Bao Heizi, in a word, the old man is going to the yang world today, do you give it or not?"
Wudian Yan Luo looked at Zhong Kui in a daze, and then picked up a token in front of the table, and all of a sudden, the token flashed red and flew in front of Zhong Kui, and he took it.
"Hmph, this is the Bao Heizi I know, extrajudicial common sense, nothing more than human affection, wait for the old man to arrest the seven evil ghosts who are now in chaos to your palace and hand them over to you for judgment."
Zhong Kui turned around as he spoke, and strode out of the five halls.
"Zhong Zhengnan, go early and come back early, although you and I have different positions, the old man is waiting, on the day you come back, I will have a good time with you."
I saw a smile on Zhong Kui's face, but at this moment, I noticed that the upright eyes of the Five Palaces Yama were staring at me.
I looked at him in amazement, and in an instant, all the ghosts around him disappeared, and in the entire five halls, there were only me and the five halls of Yama.
"The old man called you over, Zhang Qingyuan."
With a pop, I knelt on the temple, I don't know why, for the five halls of Yama, I always have a spontaneous reverence.
"Get up, Zhang Qingyuan."
I raised my hands, thanked him, got up, and looked at the five halls of Yama.
"I don't know, sir, call me to ......"
I asked, and the Fifth Hall Yama waved his hand and didn't say anything, but got up and strode towards me.
"Iron-faced and selfless, loyal and treacherous......"
I sighed, looked at the Five Palaces Yama, and didn't know what he wanted to say to me.
"You've probably heard it, my rumors."
I nodded, I heard these things when I was young, and I also acted in TV dramas.
"The old man seemed to be wrong about the seven evil ghosts back then, so he created today, all kinds of things in this ghost path."
I chuckled in my heart, indeed, I have seen that on these five halls, the seven ghost venerables were brought to the hall, and without exception, they were sent to the Infernal Hell, and the judge was the five halls of Yama.
The Five Palaces Yama walked slowly in front of me, looking lost, then looked at me, and continued.
"What is your relationship with those seven demons? Zhang Qingyuan. ”
Without much thought, I replied.
"Friends, they helped me."
The Fifth Hall Yama laughed, shaking his head constantly, and then nodding again.
"Maybe back then, I sentenced them to reincarnation, maybe today, this yin will not be so impacted."
