After the incident of Wen Jike, Building 19 was strictly guarded, and Nangong Yi was worried that there would be accidents, so she specially dispatched military police to strengthen the guard of the basement ward, and the medical personnel entering and leaving must go through strict inspection.

The words that Chinese Jike said in my mind have always lingered, and the case that has obviously been solved seems to be because of Wen Jike's words before his death, so I can't let go of this academy at all.

According to our inference, there is no need for Wen Jike to choose such an extreme way as detonating the bomb to solve the problem, he is just the one who is manipulated, and the mastermind should be An Rongyue, and to a certain extent, Wen Jike can be regarded as a victim.

For this reason, although Han Yu and the prince advised me to take it easy, I still insisted on going to the basement ward again, Yun Duruo should also be troubled by Wen Jike's words before his death, and she also thought that Wen Jike's death did not seem to be the end.

After strict security checks, we returned to the basement ward, An Rongyue had been transferred to another ward, she was admitted to a more solid room, through two layers of thick glass, we looked at An Rongyue inside, she was no longer the same as before, her eyes were more dull and empty.

This should be the performance that An Rongyue should have after taking the drug completely, I think it was because An Rongyue's thinking was completely chaotic and vague after Wen Jike helped her feed the yellow cuckoo to induce vomiting.

But even so, An Rongyue still looked outside through the glass, we stood in front of her, An Rongyue didn't react at all, she should be waiting for Wen Jike, these more than 30 years of contact have formed a conditioned reflex in her heart, Wen Jike's disappearance made An Rongyue realize that something was missing.

With An Rongyue's current state, I don't think it's possible to ask anything, Jiang Xinyu said last time that she had decided to perform lobotomy on An Rongyue, and I think that the next time I see her, maybe An Rongyue will get real relief.

When he was about to leave the ward, he heard a patient shouting hysterically on the second floor, and today's building No. 19 was obviously extremely noisy, and Yun Duruo pulled a doctor who was in a hurry and asked what was going on.

The doctor said that the explosion that occurred the day before yesterday had a great irritation to the mentally ill patients admitted here, because these patients were extremely sensitive to external stimuli, so the mentally ill patients, who had been following the rules for the past two days, suddenly became manic.

We didn't pay any attention to it, and as soon as we reached the door, a man's hoarse and laughing shout came from the second floor.

"Listen, the door of Hades is open, I'm not mad, I'm not mad, I really see...... Let go of me, let go of me, I don't want to live here. ”

I stopped abruptly, and I was about to be compulsively sensitive to the word "underworld", and I quickly turned around and went up to the second floor, where I saw several doctors and nurses dragging a man in his fifties, who looked at us with frightened eyes, his eyes were full of help and despair, and his hands were tightly grasping the railing and refusing to let go.

The man's appearance was a little obscene, under the fluffy and messy hair was a pair of cloudy eyes, laughing and crying like crazy and stupidly trying to break free from the pull of the doctor and the nurse, perhaps because the man was too emotional, another doctor hurriedly ran over with a needle, and the needle should be a sedative.

"Wait a minute!" I raised my hand to stop it, and Yun Duruo showed his ID and motioned for the others to leave first, because he was worried that the man would suddenly lose control, and Han Yu and the prince stood on either side of him.

I asked the doctor for the man's medical records, Zhang Fan, 57 years old, a construction worker by profession, and the medical records stated that he was suffering from severe paranoia of persecution, and that he had been admitted to the hospital 10 years ago, and that the treatment had had little effect.

We took Zhang Fan to a quiet room, perhaps because the doctor and nurse had left, Zhang Fan squatted in the corner tremblingly, looking back and forth timidly.

"You just mentioned the ...... Hades"

"Smoke." Zhang Fan slowly raised his hand, raised two fingers in front of me, and said timidly. "Give me a cigarette, they won't let me smoke, you give me a cigarette."

The most important thing to contact with mentally ill patients is to first gain their trust, I just took out the cigarette, Zhang Fan snatched it, impatiently put it to his mouth, I just wanted to light it, and found that Zhang Fan was very comfortable to smoke an unlit cigarette.

I glanced back at the others and said in a low voice.

"His logical thinking is chaotic."

"He can't even tell the most basic logic, can he believe what he says?" Han Yu looked at me and asked.

I took a deep breath, no one would believe what the madman said, even if he was telling the truth, I knew that it might not be useful to ask, but I was really curious about the underworld that Zhang Fan mentioned.

"You just said that the passage to the underworld is open." I squatted in front of Zhang Fan and asked in a soft tone. "How do you know?"

"I've seen it, I've seen it, I was here alone that night......" Zhang Fan took the cigarette from the corner of his mouth and looked at me in a panic and replied. And in the evening I saw the gates of hell opened. ”

"You're here alone?!" I frowned and re-checked Zhang Fan's medical records, my eyes fell on his profession, and I asked. "How come you're here alone?"

"Before, there was a building to be repaired here, and I was assigned here to take care of the materials."

I was stunned and immediately remembered that when I was investigating Building 19 before, there were three times about demolishing the building, but all of them were caused by various accidents.

And the last accident was ten years ago, I still remember the detailed record of that accident in the investigation results of Nangong Yi to us, because the cause of the previous two successive accidents, the relevant departments only allocated funds and dispatched engineering teams, without much fanfare, even the materials needed for reconstruction were transported into the pile, and at the beginning it was smooth sailing without any problems.

But the night before the construction began, the person in charge of the materials actually set fire to everything, and when they were found, all the materials were burned, but fortunately there were no casualties this time.

The man who was in charge of the materials was captured, but the man had a complete mental breakdown overnight, was identified as psychotic and persecution paranoia, and had no idea what he was doing at the time of arson.

Throughout the interrogation record, the man was laughing or crying with his head in his arms, looking scared and frightened, and his mouth was repeatedly slurred, and it took a long time for the investigators to hear what he was saying.

The ghost door is closed!

I think the person who set the fire ten years ago was Zhang Fan in front of me, and what happened that night could make a good person become crazy overnight.

"You see the passage of Hades opened, and what's inside?" Yun Duruo also squatted beside me and guided him to ask Zhang Fan.

"Of course...... Ghosts, of course. When Zhang Fan said this, his teeth kept hitting and making a sound, and his body trembled like a sieve. Ghost...... Very scary ghost grabbed my feet and wanted to ...... You want to drag me to the underworld, I ...... My desperate struggle is ...... just ran out. ”

"What do you remember?" I lit my cigarette, took a deep breath, and asked anxiously.

Zhang Fan squirmed the corners of his mouth and stared at the flickering fire in my hand with fearful eyes, and then the whole person screamed in fear, snatched the lighter, and then stroked hard until the flame burned again, Zhang Fan held the lighter tightly like grasping a life-saving straw, and shook back and forth in front of us in panic.

"I'm going to burn it, burn it, the ghost is chasing me all the time, I can't get out...... I don't want to die......" After Zhang Fan said a few words in a trembling voice, he suddenly twitched the corners of his mouth and laughed stupidly. "I'll tell you, ghosts are afraid of fire, hahaha, ghosts don't dare to chase me again...... The fire is not big enough, no, the fire is small, and the ghost will come. ”

Zhang Fan said strange words incoherently, looked at the flickering fire in front of him in a panic, stood up and went around to order things in the room, was stopped by Han Yu and snatched the lighter, when the fire was extinguished, Zhang Fan covered his head and shrank in the corner of the wall in a hurry, trembling all over, shouting hysterically in his mouth.

"Don't come, don't come, I don't want to die......"

Yun Duruo and I slowly stood up, looked at Zhang Fan's out-of-control appearance in the corner, and said in a low voice.

"It seems that he must have seen something at that time, and he is still so afraid now, he actually wants to protect himself by setting fire to the materials, what can he see that makes him afraid of being like this?"

Yun Duruo walked up to Zhang Fan and said to him softly.

"Don't be afraid, you see the sun outside, ghosts don't come out during the day."

After Yun Duruo finished speaking, he turned around and motioned for Han Yu to give her the lighter, and then rekindled it in front of Zhang Fan.

"There are a lot of people now, do you remember where the passage to the underworld is, you take us there, we will burn the ghosts to death, you don't have to be afraid anymore."

Zhang Fan's trembling body slowly began to regain its calm, and his buried head gradually raised, looking at Yun Duruo with a pleading gaze.

"You're really going to help me burn that ghost?"

We all nodded, Zhang Fan had a convulsive smile on his face, got up from the ground and pointed outside timidly and said timidly to take us to the place where the passage to the underworld was opened, we followed him, his memory didn't seem to be completely blurred and forgotten, scratching his head and thinking while slowly searching, until he stopped at the steps leading to the basement ward on the first floor, fear and timidity filled his eyes again, and then we saw Zhang Fan slowly raise his hand, shouting in fear while retreating.

That's it, and that's where the ghosts crawl out!

……

All of us immediately looked at each other in shock, if the passage to the underworld was just a fabricated rumor, then it should be the students in this school who were affected, but Zhang Fan was just an ordinary building materials administrator, he was here for the first time on the night of arson, and he didn't know the supernatural rumors in this school, so why did he point to the place mentioned in the rumors.

I licked the corners of my mouth and looked at the steps leading to the ground in confusion, and then remembered what Wen Jike had said before he died, the nineteenth step really existed......

"What kind of ghost do you see?" Han Yu suddenly asked Zhang Fan, who was trembling behind Yun Duruo, thoughtfully.

Zhang Fan thought about it for a long time, he should be trying to recall, and then looked at us seriously, and said panickedly with the corners of his mouth squirming.

The ghost had two heads...... Holding a head in one hand, there is a vertical rib spur on his back...... And also...... And also...... The ghost seems to have a tail......

I constructed what he saw in my mind according to Zhang Fan's description, and found that it was completely impossible to exist, I guess it was mostly because Zhang Fan was too afraid of his own fantasies, but I suddenly found that Han Yu frowned and looked at the prince with a solemn expression, and the rosary in the prince's hand also stopped suddenly after Zhang Fan depicted the appearance of the ghost.

The expressions of Han Yu and the prince made me a little puzzled, after handing Zhang Fan to the doctor, I asked Han Yu what was wrong when I went out?

Han Yu first looked at the prince, Yun Duruo looked back and forth on the faces of the two of them for a long time, and pulled the prince to ask curiously.

"Brother, what's wrong with you, although I didn't believe in ghosts and gods before, but I've heard some about ghosts, where are there such ghosts, Zhang Fan is clearly imaginary."

"Not necessarily!" The prince shook his head lightly, and he would not be calm when he saw him for the first time.

"What do you mean......" I asked, frowning in surprise. No, everyone has heard of folk ghost legends, it can't be that the blue-faced fangs are eerie, or they just come and go without a trace and are erratic or something, where is there anything depicted by Zhang Fan. ”

Han Yu's expression has not yet been stretched, and he said to us, what is the Taoist underworld like in the end, according to the records of Taoist classics, plus their own ideas, in fact, the underworld is strictly hierarchical, ghosts and ghosts perform their duties, from top to bottom, the highest is the Hades King Yan Jun, and the following is the Hades Shuai, and the Hades Shuai is divided into Dongyue Ten Taibao and Ten Yin Shuai, and then there are countless Yin officials and underworld officials below, and the lowest is the ghost pawn.

These ghosts are the well-known black and white impermanence bull head and horse face, Yaksha Rakshasa and Meng Po gods and other ghosts, and most of the people who can understand this category are also of this kind.

"Yes, I've heard of these too, but although the images of these ghosts and monsters in the folk are different, they are also similar on the whole, at least they won't be what Zhang Fan depicts." Yun Duruo nodded and said.

The prince took Han Yu's words and told us that in the six reincarnations, the underworld refers to hell, and it is also a well-known heavy prison among the people, that is, eighteen layers of hell, and the king of the earth Bodhisattva in order to educate the world to be good, before entering the hell issued a great wish that hell is not clear and will never become a Buddha, so the king of the earth is also called the king of the great wish.

The king of Jizo set up eighteen layers of hell to punish those who did evil and did not repent, and sent thirty-four ghost kings under his rule to patrol the underworld, and these thirty-four ghost kings are rarely known in folk classics, one of the ghost kings is a general in front of him, and he has killed countless people in his life because of his appetite, and he has killed countless people who have killed the head of the enemy in front of the tent and the violent corpse, and after his death, he fell into the reincarnation of the evil ghost road, and was pardoned by the king of Jizo as the ghost king.

Because he did a lot of evil in his life, he was punished for standing without a head, and he was punished for killing innocents indiscriminately with two heads in his hand, and he couldn't sleep peacefully with a sharp back for eternity, and gave birth to a leopard tail to compensate for the crime of killing before his death, this ghost king is called the four-eyed ghost king.

Yun Duruo and I looked at each other in shock after hearing this, and now we finally understood why Han Yu and the prince had such expressions and reactions on their faces after listening to Zhang Fan's description.

Zhang Fan was not an imaginary source of fear for him, he did see something unknown that night, and I looked at them in surprise.

"Do you mean...... What Zhang Fan saw was the Four-Eyed Ghost King!? ”

"Zhang Fan is just a building material management, and the record of the four-eyed ghost king is rarely mentioned by the folk except for cultivators, the four-eyed ghost king is a traveling ghost king, and the duty is to guard the entrance to the underworld, but because it is a body of sin, there is no divine position." Han Yu nodded and said calmly. "So very few people in the world know about the existence of the Four-Eyed Ghost King, not to mention that I also talked about the existence of the thirty-four Ghost Kings under the Jizo Throne when I was teaching the Dao Fa, not to mention an ordinary person like Zhang Fan, he couldn't know about it at all."

I looked back at the No. 19 building behind me blankly, if what Zhang Fan saw that night was really the four-eyed ghost king, could it be that the rumor was true, this is really the place of passage to the underworld, Han Yu said that the four-eyed ghost king is guarding the entrance to the underworld, could it be that Zhang Fan, who was keeping vigil that night, accidentally discovered the entrance to the underworld, which also alarmed the four-eyed ghost king, the ghost king entered and exited from the underworld to the yang world, Zhang Fan was overly frightened and went insane.
