Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Soul of Roll Call

Of course, this is just a guess between me and Jiang Li, and what we have to do now is to find my father.

Without saying too much off-topic, Jiang Li immediately asked the Chenghuang about my father's whereabouts.

However, this Chenghuang's words made our hearts tighten, and Chenghuang trembled and said: "Chen Anrong brought him down, and I asked Yin Cha to take him to the torture room, regardless of life or death." ”

Jiang Li listened to Chenghuang's words, gritted his teeth and lifted Chenghuang up, pressed it on the table again, and asked him sharply, "Where is the torture room?" ”

Chenghuang was already very afraid of Jiang Li, and immediately pointed out the direction of the torture room.

Jiang Li didn't have much time to entangle with the city god, so he let go of the city god and quickly rushed to the direction that the city god was pointing to.

There were a lot of buoyants on the road, but when they saw that we were coming out of the temple of the city god, the city god over there did not give any further orders, and they did not come forward to stop us.

There is a big gap between the environment of the underworld and the sun, the sun shines brightly in the white, and there are thousands of rays of moonlight in the day.

But this yin is not black in the daytime, it is all dark red when it looks up, and there are no flowers and trees around it, only stakes glowing with metal, and countless iron flowers blooming on the stakes, and the screams and cries of the ghosts can be heard everywhere.

As you walk forward, these noisy sounds can easily disturb your ears and disturb your mood, and the more you walk on this path, the stronger this sense of restlessness becomes.

Jiang Li looked at me and said, "All living beings are suffering, don't look at the people who are beautiful in the yang world, don't they also shed the same tears as ordinary people when they reach the Yin Division?" With a lot of money, there are no more than three meals a day. There are thousands of mansions, and the night sleep is no more than six feet. When the world understands that there is no point in competing for fame and fortune, there may not be so many cries in this underworld. ”

We walked very fast, which did not affect Jiang Li from telling me this.

These may sound useless now, but in my future life, these words that Jiang Li said intentionally or unintentionally are my eternal guiding light, so that I will not lose my way and lose myself in the ups and downs of the world.

The iron trees on the side of the road kept receding, and we got closer and closer to the torture chamber.

As I got closer to the torture chamber, I realized that those cries were nothing at all.

It is said that it is a torture chamber, but in fact, it is a piece of land divided from the underworld, and all kinds of torture instruments are set up to punish those ghosts who have committed mistakes.

Squeak.

Jiang Li pushed open the cumbersome bronze door of the torture room, and when I saw the scene behind the bronze door, I understood what hell on earth was.

"Let's go." Jiang Li patted me and asked me to follow him.

Pain is always felt, I can't see it, I can't touch it, but here, I really see it, I really hear it.

After entering here, Jiang Li's expression was not as relaxed as before, he was a little more dignified, and he lowered his head and asked me, "Can you feel where your father is?" ”

I pointed ahead, "Right ahead, there's the pillar." ”

Jiang Li looked at the pillar, his expression changed, and he immediately pulled me to speed up the pace, and there were quickly Yin on both sides of the side, wanting to stop us, but Jiang Li scolded him.

When I got to the pillar I saw, I was able to peek into what it was.

The pillar was made of iron, surrounded by four or five people, and the outside of the pillar was full of blades with upward blades, and there were a lot of yin people gathered under the pillar to look up and watch the show.

Directly below the pillar, a dozen or so vicious dogs raised their heads and looked upward, waiting for the people above to fall, and they had a good meal.

And the person who is struggling to climb up on the blade is my father.

Dad's screams came into my ears, and Jiang Li naturally heard it, and immediately stepped forward to grab a yin cha and scolded him sharply: "Stop immediately and let the people above come down." ”

This Yin Cha didn't know what Jiang Li was doing, and he didn't see anyone escorting us, and he learned that we were not here to be tortured, so he didn't speak ill of us, but said: "Once the punishment of Daoshan begins, there is no way to stop, and there is only one way to stop, that is, let the people who go up to Daoshan get the blood steamed buns on the top of Daoshan Mountain, and then come down and throw the blood steamed buns to the evil dogs below, and the vicious dogs will not eat people if they eat the blood steamed buns." Or he can choose to jump down, but even if he doesn't fall to the ground, because he can't get the blood steamed buns, he will be torn apart by this group of vicious dogs. ”

After a few words from them, I understood what this punishment meant, that is, to drive the yin soul up the knife mountain, step on the blade to go up, and when going up, the blade will cut off the soul little by little, and some of the ones that can't hold on will be chopped up before they reach the top, or those who can't hold on will jump down, and they will be torn apart by the vicious dog when the time comes. If you want to survive, there is only one way, that is, to get the blood steamed buns on the top, and then come down and feed the dogs with the blood steamed buns.

"Master, what should I do?" I asked Jiang Li with an anxious expression, but my father was standing there, I had no mother or grandfather, I didn't want to watch my father have an accident.

Jiang Li glanced at me and gritted his teeth: "You stand here and don't move, Master will save your father." ”

After speaking, he walked down the knife mountain, and the yin cha next to him immediately reminded: "Don't go over, the evil dog doesn't recognize people!" ”

But before they finished speaking, Jiang Li had already approached Dao Mountain, and those vicious dogs found Jiang Li and immediately turned around and pounced.

Jiang Li was not even afraid of Chenghuang, how could he be afraid of these vicious dogs, he threw these vicious dogs aside in three or two clicks, and then shouted at them: "Don't move there, I'll pick you up." ”

When my father heard Jiang Li's voice, he lowered his head and looked down, and was overjoyed when he saw me and Jiang Li, but immediately said to Jiang Li, "Master Jiang, don't come up, this knife will cut your foot off." ”

My father's calves have all been cut off, and it stands to reason that the soul is a mass of energy, and if a part disappears, the whole will be evenly replaced and a part will be filled, but my father's legs have been cut too many times, and the whole body will no longer replenish the soul of his legs at all in order to protect himself.

Jiang Li naturally didn't follow, reached out and pinched the back of the blade, then stepped on the blade, and kept moving up.

I watched the blade cut into the soles of Jiang Li's feet, and I felt distressed.

And the yin cha next to him said in surprise: "Ordinary people will be cut off when they step on it, but he only cut a hole in it, it's not simple." ”

Jiang Li climbed the stairs, the blade of the knife cutting his feet, but he quickly filled the wound completely.

Within ten minutes, he was already next to my father, and without waiting for my father to speak, he grabbed my father with one hand, and then stepped down the blade of the knife one by one.

Settled on the ground, Jiang Li called out to me: "Chen Xiao, help your father." ”

I immediately went over and helped my dad because his legs were gone, and he couldn't stand on his feet.

Dad looked back at Jiang Li, then sighed and said, "Master Jiang, what are you doing here, there is no return to this place." ”

Jiang Li was silent, leaning on the gap in this knife mountain without a knife to rest, I saw that his legs were trembling all the time, even if he was strong, the knife would still hurt if it cut into his body.

After resting for less than half a minute, Jiang Li said, "Let's go." ”

We were just about to leave, and the surrounding yin immediately surrounded us, although Jiang Li saved my father, but they didn't let us go, saying, "This is the ghost that the city god personally named to deal with, and you are not allowed to take him away without the order of the city god." ”

Jiang Li glanced at them, and said in a low voice, "Then let your City God personally stop me." ”

As soon as these words fell, the City God Lord, who had been pressed on the table by Jiang Li before, came over with a team of errands.

I thought they were here to arrest us, but the city god came in a panic, and when he saw these sinisters surrounding us, he immediately said with a grim face, "My lords, whoever asked you to stop them, let them go quickly." ”

Then he went to Jiang Li's side again, and said with a flattering smile on his face, "Chief Jiang, please raise your hand for today's matter, and don't submit documents to the Judge's Mansion, we will do things in the future, and we must follow the rules." ”

Jiang Li had just come down from the knife mountain, and he didn't want to talk much at this time, but he just said lightly and took us out of this torture room.

When I walked out of this gate, I looked back, the city god was teaching the yin who was about to stop us just now, and then looked at Jiang Li, he just moved forward with determination in his eyes, and did not fluctuate at all because of the city god's bow to him.

It should have been Chenghuang's order, and our way back was very smooth, and we didn't encounter any waves.

After a period of darkness, we opened our eyes and saw that we were standing outside the Land Temple.

It's still night, but it's not quiet.

Because my house has been surrounded by wandering ghosts, they are all coming for the three bodies in the house, Jiang Li said that those wandering ghosts think that if they rob other people's bodies, they can come back to life.

As can be seen from another tradition here, this is true. This side pays attention to sealing the coffin but three, which means that when the coffin lid is sealed with rivets, it can only be knocked three times at most, no matter whether it can be sealed tightly or not, it cannot be continued, because the sound of knocking on the coffin will attract nearby wild ghosts, and when the time comes, go into the coffin and snatch the corpse, once the corpse is snatched by the evil ghosts, there will be a phenomenon of corpses, this kind of thing, I have heard the old people in the village talk about it more than once.

In addition to the wandering spirits and wild ghosts gathered around this house, there was also the shouting voice of the second grandfather coming from inside the house, and he was driving away those wild ghosts.

Jiang Li didn't have time to rest, and immediately rushed to the direction of the house.

However, before he entered the house, he heard the word 'edict' coming from the mouth of the second grandfather.
