Chapter 1: The Inn on the Other Side

Next Chapter

It is rumored that on the dark Huangquan Road, there is an inn called the Other Shore Inn, which is not only a place for the ghosts to rest in the past, but also the last place for the dead to stay.

It is located outside the city of Xudu, next to the Fusheng Bridge. It is precisely because of its existence that this road does not have the desolation of thousands of years ago, and because of this, the cold underworld has a prosperous place!

As usual, the Inn on the Other Side is open to all living beings, it is unique to this road, so it is conceivable how prosperous its business will be.

Huangquan Road is in a hurry, with the development day by day, there are more novel means of transportation, under the whimsical conception, not only the ghost Marco carries people, cars, motorcycles, buses; The only difference between them and the human world is that they do not consume oil, but the energy that is unique to the underworld, the "spirit". "Spirit" is also a unique power that exists in the body of the ghosts, in addition to protection, but also as a weapon to make them work effectively.

With these new types of transportation, an ancient profession has become obsolete, that is, ferrymen.

At that time, there was no floating bridge, and the entire underworld was surrounded by the water of the Lechuan River, and if you wanted to cross the Lechuan River, you had to have this ferryman send it to the other side before you could reach the capital city.

As a condition of the ferry, the soul must answer the ferryman's questions on the way, and if the ferryman is not satisfied with your answer, it can push the soul into the Lethe River, where it will suffer for a hundred years before going ashore.

Since the construction of the Fusheng Bridge, the ghost can directly lead the souls of the dead into the city of Xudu, where they will be judged by judges, and those who commit evil will be sentenced to prison, and those who do good deeds may be reincarnated in the six realms, or stay in the underworld to serve their lives!

The funny thing is that this ancient profession has now become a kind of criminal law, if someone in the underworld violates the underworld, they will be relegated to this river, a green lamp, a handful of wood pulp, swaying and drifting, not allowed to go ashore!

Back on Huangquan Road, a ghost bus slowly drove up and stopped at the station not far from the inn on the other side, which is also the terminal of the ghost bus "Fusheng Bridge".

The car door opened, and a pair of people came down, and each team had a leading ghost, torturing the souls of the dead, and this treatment was generally for the souls of the dead who had committed evil deeds in the world, or who did not cooperate.

Onicha usually go to the other side of the inn for a short stay, because the inn has a variety of merchandise and department stores, as well as a variety of popular wines, there is a saying here called "no oni cha does not drink", because those who are willing to stay are people with stories!

In the end, there is a male ghost and a female ghost, the ghost seems to be much more sophisticated, it does not force the female ghost, or it can be understood that it is not worried that the female ghost will cause trouble to it, and the female ghost does not seem to have the intention of resisting, it seems that the heart knot should have been enlightened, close to the ghost difference!

The ghost led her into the inn on the other side, there are only two floors in the inn, all the furnishings are old and retro, there are several square tables on the first floor, and the second floor is a private seat, and there are no more than dozens of round tables for many people.

The most eye-catching thing is the stage in the middle of the inn and the stage in the middle, there will be a show on stage every festival!

The best viewing point on the stage is the inn counter, and it can be seen that the owner of this inn has selfish intentions, because she loves to watch plays.

There were 4 women at the counter, three of them were busy, and only one was obsessed with watching the room go out. It can be seen that she must have a lot to do with this inn, because she is the most idle.

The other three women are pure and lovely, in order to correspond to the environment of the inn, so they are wearing Hanfu from a hundred years ago, and the one who is in a daze can see that his face is older, so he particularly highlights her unique feminine charm, and the charm is still fascinating.

"Erniang." The ghost approached the woman and shouted.

Calling Erniang is not that they are relatives, but the title of the second in her family, as well as seniority, and this inn is owned by her own brother, and she can set up a unique inn here, but you can think about her brother's status and background in the underworld, so no one dares to offend!

“……”

The woman did not respond.

The ghost cha screamed a few more times, and the woman glanced at it and patted the ghost cha's head jokingly: "I heard it, I just remembered something, and you interrupted it again!" ”

"You're more than a thousand years old in terms of time, isn't it normal to forget things!" The ghost joked, it can be seen that the relationship between the two is also relatively close!

"Are you saying I'm old?"

The ghost was scared and sweated out when he heard her, and hurriedly replied, "How can there be? Who can live a thousand years and be as beautiful as you? ”

"You kid can talk!" She glanced at it, and then wiped the dirt on its face with a silk scarf in distress, and said, "What are you doing so hard? You asked me to take care of this inn, but you won't! ”

"Erniang, it's not that you don't know my situation, you can still talk here, maybe one day you will accidentally scatter!" The ghost said it very easily, there was no fear, only mixed with reluctance!

"Bah, don't say this kind of thing, it's unlucky!" The woman was distressed and helpless. Then she looked at the female ghost who followed it, and it could be seen that she didn't have a good face for it, and it seemed that she was disgusted with the dead soul and asked, "What way?" ”

The ghost asked Xiao Er to arrange a seat and let the female ghost sit down, obviously deliberately letting it avoid it! Fang Cai said: "Because of her husband's cheating a few years ago, I impulsively took advantage of his sleep, killed people and split the body, and after many days, I committed suicide by depression!" The resentment was deep, but it took a lot of effort to persuade it. ”

"Look at your dusty face, are there any injuries!"

"It's okay, it's just careless, there is a fracture in the left shoulder, I want to come over and drink some wine to relieve the pain!" The ghost almost remembered that there was an injury on his body when he said it!

"Why don't you go for treatment first, and I'll arrange it for you later!" It seems that this woman is really distressed!

"No, it's not bad!"

Although the woman was distressed, she knew that she was a desperate Saburo, so she didn't do much to dissuade her, and let Xiao Er prepare the wine and food she liked!

He shook his head as he looked at the two Dementor bells hanging from his waist.

The soul bell is a symbol of the identity of the ghost, one represents the ghost of the first spirit, the advanced two spirit ghost needs to guide a hundred souls, and the third spirit needs a thousand souls and pass the test. The four spirits and ghosts will get tens of thousands and the Yama order of the ten halls of Yama as a certificate! As for the Five Spirits, there is only one person in the underworld, and that is the owner of the inn on the other side, and people call him the Heavenly Master or the Holy Monarch!

Erniang was not interested in the woman's story, such stories were really commonplace for her!

The ghost cha left the counter, sat down on the square table, and sat face to face with the female ghost, perhaps because this onicha was like an ordinary person, and he was more popular than all the onicha, so she was afraid of everything in the underworld, but she was only kind to him!

When the devil saw the wine coming up, he filled it for himself, and he gritted his teeth and drank it, and it seemed that it was indeed in unbearable pain, and he endured it so much!

"I... Yes... Drink some? "The female ghost wants to drink some wine and beat her guts, but she is afraid of rejection!

The ghost said with a smile: "You can't drink it, if I let you drink it, I can't guarantee my errand if I am found out, it's okay to eat some food, the food here is still quite tasty, not worse than the world!" I heard that there was once a ghost who made the ghost who was escorted drink alcohol, and the ghost was dissatisfied and made trouble in the judge's hall, and not only went to hell, but even the ghost was punished, and he is still in Lethe River. Don't look at this wine, it's not ordinary, there is an elegant name called 100 days drunk, so far I drink a pot, will sleep for a full day! "I don't know if it's trying to lighten the mood, or if it's because of the pain!

Hearing him say so much, the female revenant became a lot bolder, and asked: "What kind of person is that woman, so kind to you, but so unkind to me!" ”

"Zhong Erniang, is the sister of this innkeeper, she has a firm stance and hates people! But it's like family to me. "It still smiles and feels extremely happy!

"It's not what I imagined, and there's such a lively inn!"

"At first, I thought so, when I first came, I was scared to death, but now I like it, but I fall in love here, and when I was alive, I have to work tirelessly, thinking that there is a car and a house here, the difference is that it will be very fair here, it is much simpler than here in the world, and those who do evil will be punished! Those with evil intentions can't stay here! "From the ghost's eyes, what I see is the helplessness and despair of life in the world!

"I can't stay here!" The female revenant tried to ask!

"You have a murder case, and you committed suicide, these are already two taboos, even if the person who is related to you has great achievements in exchange for your bad deeds, you will only be sentenced to six reincarnations at most!" Seeing the remorse in the eyes of the female revenant, the ghost comforted: "Therefore, living in the world and accumulating virtue for yourself, although karma will not be so timely, it will eventually come, and there are many people in the six realms, but it is the fastest degenerate!" You're not a heinous person, you're just carried away for a moment! ”

"I regret it now, it's too late, I can accompany you in the last paragraph, it seems that my fate is not thin! I deserve to be punished for what I have done! ”

After listening to the female revenant's words, thinking about the left shoulder that had fought hard with it and had a faint pain before, I was not pleased, and after drinking the last cup, I left the inn on the other side and entered the drunken capital!

The female ghost was sentenced to the thirteenth layer of hell for five hundred years, and before being escorted away by the ghost guard, she asked who the ghost's name was, but the ghost did not answer, it said that she had forgotten it, and she would not remember it in 500 years!
