Section 8 The master personally came to greet me

This sudden sentence scared Lao Liu into a tremble, and his face turned white at that time, I am no better than him, what bad luck this must be, I will really be bumped into, do I have to explain here today?

The heart is pounding and almost popping out, a huge panic permeates the body and mind, hands and feet are trembling, if it is in the world, even if the other party is a murderer or something, I will not be afraid of being like this, it is really unknown to me in the underworld, and the unknown is the most frightening.

Lao Liu opened his mouth with difficulty, his teeth chattering: "It's over, little brother, it will depend on the situation later, if you can't put everything down, let it go to others, only, as long as you spare our lives, it's fine." ”

I nodded in a panic, but I didn't think about how I could afford my stuff since I was a big man.

One second, two seconds, three seconds......

I could hear footsteps approaching, but my heart was calming down, and to be honest, I was not reconciled, and I thought that if I was going to die, I would have to see who killed me.

After a few deep breaths, I tried to control myself and slowly turned my head, but I was stunned.

I saw two people walking towards us on the suspension bridge more than ten meters away.

One was an old man who looked to be sixty or seventy years old, wearing a black down jacket, washed white jeans, thinning hair, bent body, and a hunchback, while the other was a young man of the same grade as me, also wearing a military coat, with an honest and loyal face, but his eyes flashed with excitement, and what made people speechless was that he was also a hunchback.

What really reassures me is that both of them are holding blue lunar candles, the candlelight is flickering, and they are obviously also peers.

I breathed a sigh of relief, this is what scary people, scaring people to death.

At the same time, he was also a little angry, and the sentence just now used a questioning tone, which was clearly intended to scare people, so that the bad taste didn't care about other people's feelings?

The two of us quickly walked up to us, and just as I was about to question him, the hunchbacked old man suddenly spoke.

"I'm sorry two, my apprentice is stubborn by nature, he likes to joke with people, it's because I don't discipline strictly, and I hope to atone for my sins."

The words were quite sincere, especially when he bowed, because he looked almost on the ground because of his hunchback.

This move blocked my mouth, and although Lao Liu next to me had an ugly face, he didn't say anything.

A startling scene appeared, the old man suddenly slapped the young man in the face with a backhand, a crisp sound, the hand was very heavy, the young man's mouth even flew out a few teeth, his nose was bleeding, and the lunar candle in his hand almost fell to the ground.

"Two, are you satisfied?"

The old man turned to look at us, his eyes full of apologies.

The young man didn't even dare to wipe the blood, he bowed his head and didn't see what he was thinking.

"This gentleman has a heavy hand, there is no need, this matter is revealed."

Lao Liu said nonchalantly.

"Thanks, then we're leaving."

After the old man finished speaking, he continued to walk forward with the young man, and soon disappeared into the white mist.

"Where are they going?"

"What are the stewards doing, let's go in first, don't miss the hour."

Lao Liu replied to me angrily, and then faced the stele, reciting the words, and after about seven or eight seconds, the stele changed.

I saw a circle of blue light radiating from the stele, I didn't have time to appreciate this wonder, I was scolded by Lao Liu, told me to go in directly, I was skeptical, tried to walk forward, just the moment I came into contact with the stele, a strong attraction sucked me in.

My eyes lit up, and I was already standing in front of a city.

On the tall city wall, the gatehouse structure of the blue tile eaves is exquisite, and the two traditional Chinese characters in Shanxi are impressively visible, in front of the city gate, there are two ghost soldiers wearing ancient armor holding halberds on both sides, well, the identity of the ghost soldier is my guess.

What amazed me even more was that there was a blue thing in the sky that was neither the sun nor the moon, emitting a blue glow and sprinkling the heavens and the earth.

This is the city of Hades? The legendary capital city seems to be just a legend.

"Isn't it different from what you imagined?"

Lao Liu's voice sounded on the side.

"That's for sure, but this is where Master Chenghuang works? What kind of management method is the underworld, and what kind of ghosts come here to accept the punishment and reincarnation. ”

I'm a little puzzled, since there are yamen all over the underworld, what about the provincial yamen? Could it be that someone with status in the yang world came here?

"What do you think, of course, ghosts from all over the world go directly to the corresponding county town god yamen to accept punishment and reincarnation, and the underworld is only based on merit, no matter what you do in the yang world, the city god yamen and the capital city god yamen are pure management departments, and ordinary ghosts can't be touched. Of course, each level of the yamen has a reincarnation division for the reincarnation of the ghosts living in the city where the yamen is located after the longevity is exhausted. Okay, you'll know all about this later, take out the money in your backpack and see what I look at later. ”

I nodded when I heard this, unloaded my backpack with one hand, opened it, and took out a large stack of banknotes, if it was 100 yuan, it would look like more than 50,000 yuan, but this is not an ordinary banknote. On the front is a portrait of a palace, and on the back is a dense collection of characters that are not recognized at all. The palace exudes a lilac light, which is very peculiar, and there is a word in the lower right corner of the front and back of the banknote.

"Tsk, Xiao Li is really good to you, so much money is enough, and there will even be a balance. He should be tied up separately for you, remember, those ghost soldiers just give one, and there will be a steward to entertain you later, at least twenty, and the rest do as I tell you, cough ten sheets, cough two hundred sheets, that's basically it, in short, try not to talk to idle ghosts, if you meet someone looking for words, try to perfunctory them. ”

I'm a little blind, and I hurriedly put ten and one hundred and one hundred on my body, and there is only one copy of twenty and one bundle, and I don't need to guess this, and there are about fifty or sixty scattered ones left, and I put them all together.

I was about to enter the city, I was very nervous, I thought it was normal, this is the underworld, or the capital city god yamen.

As Lao Liu walked to the city gate, the city gate was closed, only two ghost soldiers were standing, and when they saw us coming, a person on the right took the initiative to step forward and shouted: "Who is coming!" ”

Lao Liu hurriedly smiled and said: "Two poor masters, we are away from the county boundary, this one is newly reported, and he is recommended as the new yin and yang correspondent of the county." He turned his head to look at me and winked.

I naturally understood, so I took out two pieces of money and handed them over, and said with a smile: "Two poor masters, be careful, and hope to accept it." ”

The two ghost soldiers took the money and had a smile on their faces, but their skin was pale and bloodless, and their laughter was quite mad, and one of the ghost soldiers said: "You came on time, the city god has just opened the hall, and I will open the city gate for you." ”

As he spoke, the two ghost soldiers crossed the halberd, and when they read the words, they saw a cloud of gray mist flying out of the intersection of the halberd, and landed on the pitch-black city gate, and the tall city gate slowly pushed back until it allowed one person to enter and exit, and then stopped abruptly.

"Please, both."

I followed Lao Liu Tou closely, into the city, here is a picture of an ancient street market scene, ghosts come and go, the shops are in order, almost most of the ghosts are ancient costumes, occasionally a few wearing Mao suits or modern services mixed in, the whole feeling is not chaotic at all, there is no noise in the yang market at all.

"The capital city god yamen is like this, the ghosts here basically have a lot of merit, and many of them have a high level of cultivation during their lifetime." Lao Liu explained a little briefly, and then took me into it.

When the ghosts here saw me, they smiled kindly, without the slightest hint of surprise, and it was common for them to think of a living person joining the correspondents.

To be honest, it's the first time I've seen so many ghosts, but I don't have the panic I imagined, maybe it's their kindness that infects me, to be honest, if I die one day, I'm not qualified to live in the same place with them, and I still have self-awareness of this.

After a few blocks, we came to a tall and majestic building, and the plaque engraved with the big characters of the capital city god yamen emitted a purple halo, and I was surprised that there were no soldiers at the door.

"Isn't this the capital city god yamen, there are only two guards at the city gate, why is there no one standing guard here?"

I was puzzled, very confused, in my opinion, such a high-level yamen should be heavily guarded.

"You're wrong, you think those two guards at the city gate are ordinary? Besides, this capital city god yamen is very promising. ”

As soon as Lao Liu's words fell, he saw a ghost come out of the open yamen, dressed in green clothes, with a jade pendant on his waist, shaking a paper fan in his hand, looking like a literati and a scholar, he saw me at a glance, and a smile appeared on his face: "Yes, I came on time." ”

"Master Li, why did you come out?"

Lao Liu shouted in surprise, full of disbelief, I was a little puzzled on the side, but this Master Li directly ignored Lao Liu's shout, but stared at me for a while, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Come in with me, Lord Chenghuang happens to have time to see you." ”

I nodded stunned and looked at Lao Liu, Lao Liu's face was full of confusion and shock, but he still looked at me, meaning to let me go in with Master Li.

Why, he doesn't go in?

That's right, Master Li seems to have invited me alone, but from Lao Liu's look, this seems to be very abnormal.

With a full stomach full of questions, I walked in front of Master Li, and Master Li actually made a gesture of please, which means that I walked ahead.

What does this mean, is there something special about me? Or what protagonist aura? Don't be funny, it's not a novel, right?!

As soon as I gritted my teeth, I walked in, and the moment I stepped over the threshold, the scene in front of me changed greatly, presenting a very ordinary ancient room, next to a table of eight immortals, there was a ghost, he saw me, and showed a kind smile: "Come on, sit down." ”
