The underworld is modeled after the ancient administrative division system of the underworld, which divides the underworld into seventy-two states, which are controlled by the seventy-two divisions of the underworld, and under each state there are people such as Chenghuang and other personnel.

The underworld also adopts a centralized system, and although the seventy-two states are divided and controlled by the seventy-two divisions, the real central power in the underworld is in the capital city.

The ten Yin Marshals are in charge of the forces of the underworld, the ten palace kings are in charge of the affairs of the underworld, the four judges are in charge of punishments and the eighteen hells, and the supreme power of the underworld is in the hands of the five ghost emperors of the underworld.

We're going to the Ghost King's Mansion now. It's one of the mansions of the handsome yin, my father was originally a cheap ghost king in the underworld, but that mansion is still my father's, and now Du Hai and my mother are married in the ghost king's mansion, the meaning is obvious, punish!

There is nothing more murderous than punishing the heart, Du Hai chose this place to humiliate us, which is one of the reasons why Jiang Li asked to come to the underworld to attend the wedding.

Some distance from Jinjiling to Xudu City, we met many people from the underworld who were on the road with us, many of whom were gorgeously dressed. But they didn't care about us at all, they just hurried to get there.

The walking process was boring, so I found a topic and said to Jiang Li, "Master, where are they going?" ”

Jiang Li looked in the direction of those who were traveling, and replied, "Xudu City." Du Hai can casually appoint your father as the ghost king, which means that his position must be higher than Yin Shuai, and there are not many people in the underworld whose position is higher than Yin Shuai, either the Ten Palaces Yama or the Four Great Judges. Either it is the ghost emperor of the five directions, such a person can roll up the storm in the underworld with a word, let alone a major event like getting married, such a good opportunity, the major dignitaries of the underworld will definitely participate, and maybe they can also enter Du Hai's eyes, which is a rare opportunity for them. ”

Jiang Li answered everything I wanted to ask and what I didn't want to ask in one sentence, and I immediately had nothing to say, and I wanted to find another topic, but Jiang Li smiled: "Walk well, if there are any problems, I'll talk about it when I go back to the yang world." ”

I answered, and concentrated on my way.

There is no day or night, no sun, moon and no stars, and when you look up, you can only see the scarlet sky, the black dirt on the ground, and the iron trees growing on the road.

Walking for nearly half a day, Jiang Li pulled me up to a mountain range of hundreds of meters, the length of the mountain range, the naked eye could not see where it spread, Jiang Li and I stood at the top of this mountain range, when looking down, my mouth was so shocked that I couldn't close it.

Jiang Li looked down and smiled: "Below here, it is the capital city, the center of the underworld." It is also the most terrifying place in the underworld, and we are going there. ”

Jiang Li pointed in a direction, the place was full of black palaces, mysterious and deep, and the city below was shrouded in the threat of death, and there was the coercion of the king, after all, the people who lived below were the most important people in the entire underworld.

"Why isn't the Ghost King's Mansion in the city?" I asked.

The place Jiang Li pointed to is the Ghost King's Mansion, where we are going next, although the city below is large, but there is a wall of hundreds of meters, which divides the capital city below into an inner city and an outer city.

It just so happened that we were a little tired from walking, and taking advantage of this rest time, Jiang Li told me in detail: "Only people above the Ten Palaces of Yama are qualified to live in the inner city, and the ghost king is only Yin Shuai, and he is not qualified to enter the inner city. ”

"Then why did this mountain range surround the city again?" I pointed to this mountain range and said, standing at the top of this mountain range, I can roughly see the direction of this mountain range, the mountain range is towering into the sky, but it forms a circle, and encloses the whole city of Xudu.

At the mention of this, Jiang Li paused, thoughtful, and didn't know what he was thinking. After a while, he said to me, "This mountain range is called Broken Soul Cliff. "Tianzang" records that in the Western Zhou Dynasty, there was a person named King Wucheng under King Wu of Zhou, who was ordered by King Wu of Zhou to unify the entire underworld with great magic and became the first emperor of the underworld. At that time, the Yin Changsheng vein and the Zhou Wuwang vein were in full swing. After Yin Changsheng died, his disciple killed the underworld with one person and one sword in order to avenge Yin Changsheng, forcing King Wucheng to be cornered, but he gave up revenge in the end, but he didn't want to watch King Wucheng go out to kill the people of Yin Changsheng's lineage, so he used a spell to move this mountain range from the yang world, surrounded the entire capital city in it, and did not allow King Wucheng to take half a step from the Broken Soul Cliff. ”

I nodded, I once heard some stories from my second grandfather. This King Wucheng was mentioned.

said that King Wucheng's original name was Huang Feihu, his ability was monstrous, and he finally became the first Emperor of Dongyue in the underworld, but the second grandfather didn't tell me, and someone moved a mountain range from the yang world to restrict King Wucheng from going out of the capital city.

"So, what does that wall do?" I pointed to the city wall in the capital city and asked Jiang Li.

Jiang Li said: "The disciples of Yin Changsheng did not allow the people in the city of Yin Changsheng to step out of the Broken Soul Cliff, and the people in the city of Yin Changsheng were also afraid that the disciples of Yin Changsheng would kill them again, so they built such a wall to prevent the disciples of Yin Changsheng from entering. ”

"That sounds. Like a mythical story. I said.

Jiang Li smiled: "History is written with oil and vinegar, this is originally a legend, what is going on, only the people of that era know, let's go." No matter how late it is, you won't be able to catch your mother's wedding. ”

The Broken Soul Cliff prevented the people in the city from going out, but after so many years, this mountain range has long had a passage, and we rested at the top of the mountain range and walked down the road on the mountain range.

The city of Xudu is very lively, some of them are people from the underworld who live here normally, and some of them are coming for Du Hai's wedding.

Jiang Li was dressed in a Taoist robe, and when he arrived in this capital city, people began to pay attention to us.

The relationship between the underworld and Taoism is very awkward, and the underworld deals with ghosts. Taoism also deals with demons and monsters, and there are often contradictions between the two sides, which can be seen from the last time Jiang left the City God Temple, but this is the capital city, even if the Dragon and Tiger Sect is in charge. When you go to such a place where the important people of the underworld are concentrated, you will also be frightened.

On the way, the ghosts all paid attention to us, and Jiang Li clung to me tightly, for fear that I would be lost.

We had only walked a few steps when a man dressed in the shape of a city god in front of us reprimanded: "You two. What's the matter? This is the capital city, not a territory that your Taoism can contaminate, hurry up. ”

The city god has some status outside, but this is the city of the city, here a random person who looks inconspicuous pulls it out, or it may be an important person in a certain mansion, this city god's reprimand immediately made the other ghosts around him dissatisfied, frowned and stared at this city god, and then stepped forward and asked with a serious expression: "What's the matter?" ”

The city god glanced at the person who stepped forward to inquire, and immediately said respectfully: "Today the king of equality is very happy. I saw that these two people were dressed as Taoists, and I was worried that something would go wrong, so I was driving them away. ”

The man looked at the two of us again, and immediately beckoned impatiently, and hundreds of Yin soldiers with swords and halberds came out of the palace and alley next to us, blocking us.

The man who beckoned just now said, "Take them away, and if you resist, you will be killed." ”

"Yes." The Yin soldiers should be in unison.

The commander only regarded us as people who had entered by mistake and drove us away, and when he turned around and left, the city god immediately smiled and stepped forward.

I looked at Jiang Li. He just looked blank and pulled me towards him.

"Stop, leave the capital city immediately." When the Yin soldiers on the opposite side saw Jiang leaving, they immediately scolded.

Jiang Li did not stop, but spoke: "You equal kings invite me to come. Even if I want to leave the city, I have to send me away. ”

The group of Yin soldiers only thought that Jiang Li was bragging, no matter what Jiang Li said, they waved the spear in their hands and rushed up.

But as soon as he arrived in front of him, Jiang Li didn't know when to draw his magic sword. Swinging his sword, he slashed at the spear of the Yin soldier, and the spear snapped into two, Jiang Li took a step forward, and threw the Yin soldier into the alley next to him.

The man who had just left turned around when he heard the voice, and was shocked when he saw this. Immediately ordered: "Kill him." ”

All the Yin soldiers rushed up at the same time.

Just as they were about to step forward, Jiang Li opened his lips and said, "E! ”

Hula.

The yin qi gathered and poured down, knocking all those yin soldiers to the ground.

Because the movement is not small, it has attracted more people's attention. The man frowned and shouted, "Gather all the Yin soldiers here and kill these two." ”
