Chapter 180: Hell (2)
The surrounding scene drove backwards quickly, I don't know what kind of means the witch used, Bai Nian found that the two of them were obviously walking slowly, but the speed was ten miles in one step!
"Witch, why is this place so deserted? There is not even a single revenant?" had already walked a long way in this hell, but Bai Nian found that this place was completely different from the hell he imagined was full of ghosts and ghosts, there was no movement here, and there was a dead silence.
"Did you find out too?" the witch paused, her face a little solemn.
"Is there something wrong?" Bai Nian felt that something might have changed.
"Go to the second floor and have a look. After speaking, the witch grabbed Bai Nian and took a step forward, and the red mist wrapped the two of them in it at this time.
One step fell, as if the stars were moving, and when the red mist dissipated, Bai Nian looked around, but found that this place was not much different from the first layer, and they were all the same weird hues.
"Can you turn back here?" Bai Nian turned his head to look back, only to find that the original rule of not turning back and going back had disappeared.
"Huh?" The witch also tried to retreat, only to find what Bai Nian said, she frowned, and said to herself, "Has this place been breached?"
"What did you say?" Bai Nian asked puzzled.
"Let's go, let's go down there and take a look, hold on to my hand!" and then the world turned again.
However, the third layer remained unchanged, so the witch took Bai Nian and kept walking deeper.
4th, 5th, 6th floor...... It wasn't until she reached the ninth floor that the witch stopped.
Here, a thick black river crossed the area, and the strange thing was that Bai Nian couldn't feel the surge of this black river at all, just like a dead river without waves.
On the other side of the river, there is a large field of bright and blood-colored strange flowers, which are the Manshu Sawa that blooms on the other side of the River Styx, that is, the flower of the other side, and this black river is undoubtedly the River Styx!
Three or five miles away is a stone bridge over the River Styx, one end of the bridge is a path that runs out of nowhere, and the other end of the bridge is supposed to lead to the depths of hell.
"What about the bridge?" Bai Nian said in surprise.
However, the witch shook her head slightly and said, "This bridge is called the Bridge of Broken Memory, and the souls of the dead in the world will forget the memories of this life after drinking Meng Po soup. And here, crossing this bridge is a memories......"
"Forehead ......"
"But the bridge should ......be on the sixth floor," the witch said with a puzzled chin stroke, "and we'll take a look at it." ”
"Hmm, didn't you say that you would forget this broken memory bridge?"
"With me protecting you, what are you worried about?" the witch glanced at Bai Nian with contempt.
With another step, the two of them had crossed the Broken Memory Bridge and came to a one-foot high stone platform. On the east side of the stone platform, a bronze mirror of ten circumferences hangs in the air. (circumference: the length of the thumb and index finger of both hands together)
And after arriving at this stone platform, the bronze mirror actually reflected Bai Nian's figure by itself.
"Isn't this on the first floor?" said the witch in surprise.
"Evil Mirror Table?" Bai Nian asked.
This mirror of iniquity can reflect all the sins of a person's life. The witch looked at the Mirror Table, and then said meaningfully: "It is said that there are no good people in front of the Mirror Table, but who in the world can be the best? Who can be innocent? In the end, they all have to go to this Mirror Table......
Suddenly, in the mirror of evil, the past of Bai Nian's life gradually emerged......
Growing up in the White Village, the sin at that time was nothing more than killing wild beasts while hunting, and even trampling an ant to death was recorded......
Later, he went to the White Emperor City and killed several of his subordinates sent by Bai Yin to hunt him down......
Later, he went to Falling Phoenix City to kill the three emissaries of the Djinn Sect......
After that, all the pictures reflected in the mirror of Bai Nian's murder were all images, especially after arriving in Nanhua Immortal Kingdom, Bai Nian in the mirror was all cold and cruel to kill embryos. The hand rises, the sword falls, and the person dies...... Seeing Bai Nian's heart, he palpitated, and even felt a strong burst of rejection, remorse and guilt.
Is this really me? Are you so murderous?
At this time, Bai Nian suddenly felt a wave of fear, like a self-righteous hero who suddenly found out one day that he was actually a demon with blood-stained hands, and he was completely different from him in his own eyes in the eyes of the world!
At this moment, a hand put on Bai Nian's shoulder, Bai Nian turned his head, and what caught his eyes was the thrillingly beautiful face, this face had a smile of affirmation, like a warm breeze blowing away the gloom in his heart.
But this smile was only fleeting, and then it turned back into that heartless and evil smile.
"As a disciple of this seat, it is really weak to deny yourself so easily because of a broken mirror!" The witch instantly snapped out a finger, and directly bounced a big bag on Bai Nian's forehead on the other side.
"You ......" Bai Nian jumped up immediately in pain.
"One on one side, it looks a little more balanced, but the one on the other side of you seems to have disappeared a lot......" The witch clapped her hands, but then pinched her fingers again, looking ready to point again, so that the two bags on Bai Nian's head, one large and one small, would become the same size.
When Bai Nian saw this battle, no matter how much resentment he had in his heart, he was so frightened that he took it back, and he immediately flashed to the side, not daring to get close to this witch again.
"Hmph!" the witch snorted lightly, then looked at the mirror of evil and said, "Killing is evil, it's ridiculous! The hell has long been outdated, as if those people in hell didn't kill one by one. Buddhism still talks about killing to stop killing, killing to stop evil, this hell is good, and they want to control the way of killing in their own hands!"
Then, she looked at Bai Nian again and said contemptuously: "It's really useless, always remember that you are the heir of the killing sword, if you don't kill someone, people will kill you! Besides, which one of the people you killed is not the one who should be killed?"
"However, it is difficult to determine whether it should be killed or not! The distinction between good and evil is very vague. Bai Nian muttered.
However, the witch was not much annoyed, but showed a touch of appreciation on her face, "I was just like you back then, I didn't delay when I killed, but after I finished killing, I suddenly regretted it. But then, it's up to you to kill or not to kill......"
"Do you remember, I asked you the question when I first passed you the Sword of Killing?"
Bai Nian was stunned for a moment, and then asked puzzledly, "What's the problem?"
"Well, one day, you'll understand why I'm asking you this question. A helpless smile rose from the corner of the witch's mouth, and her voice became smaller and smaller, until finally only she could hear it, "Just like me......"
Bai Nian suddenly felt an inexplicable touch in his heart, and the witch at this time had a faint sadness, which was extremely contagious, and even made Bai Nian feel that this world was affected by it.
That question...... What is the problem?
Kill one person and save tens of thousands, kill or not?
Kill tens of millions of people and save one, kill or not?
Bai Nian finally remembered the question that the witch had asked him when she passed on his killing sword, the question that seemed to be the same but completely different.
He remembered that at that time, he seemed to have chosen to kill one person and save thousands of people. Therefore, the witch passed on his killing sword. And if he chose to kill tens of millions of people and save one person, then the witch would pass on his sword.
However, Bai Nian couldn't figure out a doubt. Shouldn't the sword of killing be justified by killing, killing thousands of people? Why did he choose to kill one person to save the common people, but he should be rumored to be killing the sword?
However, he never asked the witch this question, because the witch didn't seem to want to tell him the answer at all, and he had to find the answer himself.
It's just that Bai Nian didn't know that when he found this answer, it would be so desolate......
"You just said that I was weak, so why don't you dare to look at this evil mirror?" Bai Nian saw that the atmosphere was a little silent, so he asked casually.
"Me?" the witch was a little surprised, and then she smiled again, and when she looked at the mirror hanging in the air again, her eyes seemed to glow.
Then, when she came to the mirror and looked up at the mirror, she saw that the whole mirror was shattered!
"The slaughter of this seat back then surpassed the ancient and modern of the Six Realms, and it can be measured by this little evil mirror?" said the witch lightly, and at that moment she crossed her arms and walked towards that station, and there was a peerless grace.
However, Bai Nian was full of black lines, he obviously wanted to see the witch's past in the previous life, but he didn't expect the evil mirror to shatter directly, and it made the witch shudder again.
But also, the witch of the previous life was known as a disaster-killing existence, which made the entire Six Realms tremble and uneasy, and in the end, it was necessary to gather the supreme figures of the four families of immortals, demons, Buddhas, and demons to encircle and kill her. How could a small mirror of evil in hell that reflected the sins of the dead soul be able to accommodate her sins!
"Let's go to the next place!" said the witch, this time bringing Bai Nian to the Evil Mirror Platform was actually a witch who had already thought about it.
From the moment Bai Nian took over the Killing Sword, his fate was destined to kill thousands of people, even enemies in the world...... If you don't realize your own way of killing early, sooner or later you will become the soul of someone else's sword.
And the Evil Mirror Platform can make a person's killing infinitely magnified, let Bai Nian face his own killing, and also let him experience the demons brought by the killing Dao in advance. After all, he always had to face that calamity, and that calamity was the calamity that their swordsmen were destined to experience, and this calamity was called killing disaster!
The road behind the Mirror Terrace took a 180-degree turn, and the first nine layers of hell were completely different from when they arrived here.
Mountains of corpses and a sea of blood!
All kinds of fresh or decaying flesh tissues could not be distinguished from those of other species, and they were laid out into a carpet of broken bones and flesh, and the blood that had congealed into gelatinous forms gathered in the recesses to form a pool of blood......
At first glance, it is a terrifying sight that makes the soul tremble!
"Vomit ......" Rao is ruthless Bai Nian killed the enemy before, and it was difficult to suppress the surge in his stomach at this time.
The smell of rancid blood lingered between his noses, the blood-stained wreckage beneath his feet, and his eyes ...... Needless to say.
When she came here, even the witch who had always been unmoved, couldn't help but be shocked, when did hell become like this?
In the original hell, the souls of the dead entered it through the path of the Nine Shadows, and came to the first three layers to be tortured with corporal punishment, then to the fourth and fifth layers of hot and cold punishment, and then to the sixth layer to be tortured by loneliness by trekking 100,000 miles.
Then pass through the Bridge of Broken Memories at the end of the sixth layer to forget this life, then enter the pure body pool to wash away the pain and grievances of this life, and finally embark on the path of reincarnation and reincarnate in this life. And after the sixth layer of hell, it is the place where some of the most sinful beings are imprisoned.
But now, everything is in chaos!
The witch has reached the end of the ninth layer, but the road here is a sea of corpses and blood!
Hell, what has happened in these 10,000 years!
