Chapter 2 Remembering the Man Who Holds Memory
Han Yu didn't think about nodding in agreement, Fang Xiang smiled contentedly, then looked up at us, after glancing around, his eyes finally fell on me, Fang Xiang frowned slightly, stood up and walked over, stopped in front of me and looked at it for a long time, suddenly pulled up my hand, rolled up his sleeves and saw the four clearly visible lines on my arm, Fang Xiang's hand trembled.
"The Netherworld envoy didn't know to be there in person, and he didn't want to welcome him from afar, and he hoped that the Hades Emperor would surrender." Fang Xiang took a step back, his face was immediately full of respect, and he knelt down beside him as he spoke.
I held Fang Xiang and looked embarrassed and a little overwhelmed, she is also Master Han Yu, and she can be regarded as my elder in terms of seniority.
"I ...... Am I really the Emperor of Hades? In fact, I just heard from someone that I was a friend of Han Yu, and you are his master, so I'm afraid I can't afford this courtesy. ”
Fang Xiang got up without being humble or arrogant, looked around at us all again, and finally looked at Han Yu.
"You brought the Hades Emperor to me, it seems that you didn't come back to see me, what happened?"
"Master, a friend of mine is in some trouble, so you are here to ask for your help." Han Yu said sincerely.
"Friend...... It's a friend again, every time you meet a friend, there's no good thing......" Fang Xiang smiled bitterly and asked us to sit down, looking at me respectfully and asking. "The Emperor of the Underworld is here, Fang Xiang is duty-bound, I don't know what I can help?"
I arranged Yun Duruo to Fang Xiang's side and told Fang Xiang the beginning and end of everything, Fang Xiang stretched out his hand and put it on Yun Duruo's wrist to probe the pulse, and his face became deeper and more solemn.
"From the Great Luo Jinxian Heavenly Gods and Buddhas, down to the beasts and evil ghosts, all of them have to go through the six realms of reincarnation, but she has an evil form and an immortal god, and now although she is temporarily restrained, she is not an immortal or a god, but she will become a demon for a long time if she does not enter the six realms."
"Is there any way to save her?" I asked anxiously.
"Everything in the world is in the six realms, except for the Hades Emperor, who can transcend the six realms, and the only one who can save her is the Hades Emperor." Fang wanted to answer.
"You also say that I am the Emperor of Hades, but I can't save her with blood." I say.
"Of course the Hades can save her, but you are only the reincarnation of the Hades Emperor now, not the real Hades yet, and you will only have the ability to save her when the Hades Emperor comes to the world."
"Master, I brought these friends to meet you just to ask you about this, how can he become the real Emperor of the Underworld?" Han Yu asked anxiously.
"I don't know."
……
"No...... I don't know?! Han Yu was stunned, licked the corners of his mouth, and said in surprise. Master, you are the messenger of the Netherworld in the Yang World, you know the most about the Netherworld in this world, since the Emperor of the Netherworld is the Netherworld, why don't you know about him? ”
"The Netherworld you are talking about and the Netherworld of the Hades Emperor are completely different places."
"Two different places?" Gu Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and asked curiously. "There are two Netherworlds?!"
"The Netherworld you are familiar with only came after the beginning of the realm, that is, the Netherworld that you know, and before that, the Hades Emperor was in the realm of the dead, but the Netherworld under the rule of the Hades Emperor is not subject to the ghosts." Fang wanted to answer seriously.
"That'...... What is in the kingdom of the dead souls under the rule of the Emperor of Hades? Asked suspiciously.
"It's the ancient gods and demons!" Fang Xiang took a deep breath and said calmly. "These are the gods and demons who could not be immortal before the initial determination of the realm, the Hades Emperor is concerned with the life and death of all beings, and the gods and demons who died in the ancient gods and demons are all imprisoned in the country of the Hades Emperor's dead souls and wait to fall."
"Ancient gods and demons?" Han Yu looked back at the statue enshrined in the middle of the side hall with a puzzled expression, and asked in surprise. "Master, didn't you just say that all living beings are in the six realms of the realm, I know the Taoist gods, up to the Qing Tianzun, down to the Scattered Immortal Heavenly Master...... Even the five decays of immortals have to enter the six realms of reincarnation, but I've never heard you mention the land of the dead? ”
"The Taoist god was only settled after Gong Jiang Ya Qishan was sealed as a god, and the world was still chaotic when the ancient gods and demons were warned, and it was only later that the realm was divided into six realms, and the Hades Emperor was not among them, because what he was in charge of was far beyond the scope of the six realms of the realm." Fang Xiang shook his head silently and told us very calmly. "The gods and demons under the rule of the Emperor of Hades are beyond the reach of those gods you are familiar with."
"What are the gods and demons under the rule of the Emperor of Hades?" I asked, stunned.
"You should have heard the names of these gods and demons, but for you it may only be rumors a long time ago, but any of these names will make you thunder." Fang Xiang replied lightly.
"Is there a god more revered than the Qing status?" Han Yu asked with a frown.
"Donghuang Yi!" Fang wanted to blurt out.
……
Han Yuhe opened his mouth almost at the same time, I really haven't heard of this name, but looking at the expressions of the two of them, I know that it is not trivial.
"Eastern Emperor...... One, I've seen this name? Yun Duruo suddenly said next to me.
"Have you seen that?" I looked at Yun Duruo blankly, and in my memory she knew very little about these gods and ghosts. "Where have you seen that?"
"You still told me, the last time you said that the origin of my name was Qu Yuan's Chu Ci, I went to read Chu Ci, one of which is called Jiu Ge, and the first one in it is written by Donghuang Yi." Yun Duruo said to me with words. "The first emperor of the East, the auspicious day is good, and Mu will enjoy the emperor; The long sword is jade, and the loud and loud are dazzling...... I remember the first few sentences, but I don't understand what they mean. ”
"The Eastern Emperor is the god of heaven after Pangu opened the world, and the shrine is in Chudong, in order to match the Eastern Emperor, so the Yundong Emperor, and the noble one, so it is called the Eastern Emperor One, is the ancient god of heaven." Han Yu took a deep breath, his expression still surprised.
"Donghuangyi, you haven't heard of it, but there are many names of gods and demons that you must be familiar with." Fang Xiang said to me calmly.
"In addition to the Eastern Emperor, there are also those revenant souls who are imprisoned in the Hades Emperor?" I asked in amazement.
Gonggong, Chiyou, Xingtian, Zhurong, Zhuhai, Zhibi, Tianwu......
Fang wanted to name a long list of names, Han Yuhe was dumbfounded, even if Yun Duruo and Gu Xiaoxiao and I didn't come back to their senses for a long time after hearing about these unfamiliar people, these are all names that are not often mentioned, because they are so old that they all exist in rumors, but every name Fang wants to mention is as thunderous as she told us, and these are the gods and demons of creation.
What surprised me even more was that these gods and demons were all imprisoned in the country of the Dead Soul of the Hades Emperor, and we had never heard of the ancient gods and demons war, including Han Yuhe and they were all at a loss, it seemed that they were also confused about it, and being able to imprison so many creation gods shows how powerful the Hades Emperor should be.
Thinking of this, I subconsciously looked down at the tattoos on my hands, and no matter how I looked at it, it was hard to believe that I was the reincarnation of the Hades Emperor who was in charge of the life, death and time of all beings.
"Master, the battle of the ancient gods and demons should have been before the initial decision of the realm, what happened at that time?" Han Yu looked at Fang Xiang suspiciously, and asked seriously. "Why are so many gods and demons imprisoned in the realm of the Immortal Emperor's souls?"
"You also know that it was before the beginning of the realm, and I am also one of the beings who are reincarnated in the six realms of the realm, and I know only so much, and I am afraid that only those who have experienced that great war will know." Fang wanted to say this, and his eyes fell on me again.
"I ...... I don't know anything, and in fact I still don't believe I'm the reincarnation of the Immortal Emperor. I knew what Fang Xiang's gaze meant, and said helplessly.
"That's because you haven't become the real Hades Emperor yet, there must be a reason why the Hades Emperor has been silent for thousands of years and reincarnated in this life, sooner or later the Hades Emperor will come to the world, and only then can you save her." Fang Xiang looked at Yun Duruo and said to me.
"Master, what does it take for him to become the real Emperor of the Underworld, if you don't know, then who else in this world will know?" Han Yu asked anxiously.
Fang Xiang glanced back at Han Yu, her eyes suddenly became a little obsessed, and I found that her eyes flickered a little, clearly hesitating.
"Master, you ...... Do you know how? Han Yu should have seen the hesitation in Fang Xiang's eyes and asked nervously.
"You really want to know?" Fang Xiang's tone became a little sad, as if she would never refuse any of Han Yu's requests, even if it was difficult, she would agree.
"They are all my friends, you taught me to be kind to others, and it is incumbent on Han Yu to be friends in trouble." Han Yu nodded without hesitation.
"The Hades Emperor should not have entered the six realms of reincarnation, there must be an unknown secret when he suddenly disappeared into the six realms thousands of years ago, if you want to know how to make him become the real Hades Emperor, you must get back the memories of the Hades Emperor before he fell into the six realms." Fang Xiang hesitated for a long time and took a deep breath to answer.
"Memories of the Immortal? At...... In what place? I asked nervously.
"......" Fang Xiang fell silent again, she seemed to be very taboo about this matter, and her eyes kept looking at Han Yu with nostalgia, as if what she said had a lot to do with Han Yu.
"Master, no matter what, Han Yu will do whatever it takes for his friends, please master to fulfill it." Han Yu stood up and suddenly knelt down in front of Fang Xiang and said sincerely.
I saw Fang Xiang's fingers tremble slightly, closed his eyes and sighed heavily.
"Do you remember that this is the Yin Temple, and if you ask for one thing in the Yin Temple, you must exchange one thing."
"Han Yu remembers, no matter what is exchanged, Han Yu has no hesitation."
"Okay......" Fang Xiang sighed again, his expression a little sad and helpless. Memory is for forgetting, but there is one person who is in charge of forgetting and remembering, and all the memories in the world are in charge of this person, and if you want to get back the memory of the Hades, you must go to that person. ”
"The one in charge of forgetting and remembering?" Gu Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and asked suspiciously. "Who is it?"
Fang Xiang closed his eyes and sighed, looked back at Han Yu again, his eyes were full of attachment and reluctance, and finally spoke.
"Meng Po!"
