Chapter 271: Huangquan Road
Lin Qi took Zhou Dian, the tiger's head, into the Purple Mountain at night, found a hidden cave, sat down and said to Zhou Dian: "Senior brother, I will go to Yin Si to find the soul of Qingjiao, you are here to protect the Dharma for me, don't wander around, wait for me to come back." ”
Zhou Dian said: "Why do you have to go alone, wouldn't I accompany you with multiple arms, and let the bell protect the Fa." ”
Lin Qi said: "The bell is not as profound as your Taoism, and I am at ease when I have a senior brother." What's more, the bell is still in Hongdu City, and it won't be able to come back in a short time, so it's the only way to do it. ”
Zhou Dian sighed and said: "Xiao Linzi, you have been running back and forth, you have not rested for a while, you don't take me with you, I am also at ease, even if there are some dangers in the world, with your ability to protect yourself, now you want to go to the Yin Si is different from other places, although you have also been to the land of the city god, but it is not the real Yin Si, the Yin Si is the real dangerous place, what you have learned, in the Yin Si is not seen to work, how can I rest assured?" ”
Lin Qi said: "Senior brother, don't worry, I'll go back as soon as I go, I won't be able to do it, if I see the opportunity is wrong, just flee back." There is really any danger, if you let the tiger head go to me, it will be fine, and you don't know the ability of the tiger head. ”
"Then you take the tiger head, I can rest assured."
Lin Qi smiled bitterly, reached out and touched the little head of the tiger head and said: "The tiger head is powerful, but he is still the mind of a three- or four-year-old child, it is not good to take him to cause any trouble, if he is hungry and eats two ghosts, our brothers will really not be able to eat and go around." After speaking, he said to the tiger head: "Tiger head, listen to your master's words, I won't call you, don't go to me." ”
The tiger head pulled Lin Qi's clothes, quite reluctant, since the tiger head went down the mountain with him, the two of them did not spend much time together, the tiger head was attached to him like a parent, naturally reluctant, Lin Qi helplessly comforted: "Tiger head, obedient, when the master comes back from the Yin Division, he will never be separated from you again, and he will take you with him wherever he goes." ”
The tiger head nodded slightly, Zhou Dian couldn't say anything about Lin Qi, so he could only say with a bitter face: "Be careful, what you need, I will burn it to you." ”
Lin Qi nodded, and instructed the tiger head to listen to Zhou Dian's words, calm down, get out of the body, and sway towards the place of the hometown city god, if you want to go to the yin division, there is no way in the world, you have to follow the rules of the underworld, although the city god is also the underworld, but it is at the junction of yin and yang, if you want to really go to the yin, it is not the end of life, it will take a lot of effort. The so-called thirteen stations of the Netherworld, you have to walk one station at a time before you can reach the Nai He Bridge.
Previously, in the underground palace of the Yellow River, Lin Qi's soul was miserable and helpless, and he drifted to the side of the Nai He Bridge, that was because the underground palace had Dayu's divine power remaining, so that he could float directly to the Nai He Bridge out of the body, and now the underground palace has long been destroyed, Lin Qi wants to go to the Yin Division, he has to follow the rules step by step.
The so-called rule is that you must first return to the land temple in your hometown, and the land lord has the local "household registration book" in his hand, which records the local mountains and rivers, population, livestock, and the number of people. As the saying goes, one side of the water and soil supports one side of the people, one side of the land protects the other side, and a person's birth and death must pass through the local land temple. Although the land is a lowly god, it is a well-known god, and everyone does not dare to collide. It is also an important deity that communicates with Yin Si, from the transmission of the expression to the incineration of the worship of money, it is inseparable from the help of the father-in-law of the land.
When someone has reached the end of his life, the Yin soldier will take the soul card and the ticket to escort the soul to the land temple to clear customs, and the land father-in-law will open the local "household register" for verification. There are two passages on both sides of the Land Gonggong God Case, one is the main road directly to the Western Elysium, and the other is the Huangquan Road to the Netherworld. One pass is bright, the other is pitch black. The Yin soldiers pressed the ghosts and turned into the Yin Wind and stepped on the Huangquan Road.
In this way, he can set foot on Huangquan Road, Lin Qi is a Yin body travel, not a real dead soul, if he wants to go to Yin Si, he has to start from the land temple in Huaishu Village, his hometown, and only his father-in-law Wang Eighteen can help with this.
Yin body travel, the speed is also fast, a few flashes of thought, has arrived in the city god, Lin Qi went straight in, happened to meet the night ghost on duty who met before, saw Lin Qi, shouted to go in to invite Wang Eighteen, Lin Qi ghost master name has resounded through the two worlds of yin and yang, the night ghost has dealt with Lin Qi, feel that there is a friendship, long boastful, seeing Lin Qi coming, ecstatic, even more happy than Wang Eighteen saw Lin Qi.
Wang Eighteen came out to meet Lin Qi, Lin Qi will explain why he came here, Wang Eighteen said in a deep voice: "Although you are now a high god, but after all, Yin and Yang are separated, and there are different paths, to enter the Yin Division, there are only two ways, one is to enter directly from the upper realm, but it must be done by immortals, or there is a priest who goes to the Yin Division to do things, and the rest can only take the Huangquan Road." ”
Lin Qi didn't know, and said with a wry smile: "If you go on Huangquan Road, you are not afraid, but you can't pass the customs without a ticket." ”
Wang Eighteen didn't want Lin Qi to take this risk, and persuaded: "Yin Si is not as good as the Yang World, although you have the Dao Law, how much can you have left for the Yin Body to travel?" There's no other way? ”
Lin Qi said: "I don't know if the frog is still by the bridge, I have to give it a try, if he has been reincarnated, I will come back immediately, although the Taoism is greatly discounted, self-protection is more than enough." ”
Seeing that his son was stubborn, Wang Shibai said helplessly: "I'll think of a way for you, you have to promise me to be careful, Qi'er, do you know that our Wang family and the Lin family are counting on you to inherit the lineage, you can give me a good deal." ”
Lin Qi said with a smile: "Dad, don't worry, now the child has a confidante, but he is the apprentice of a childless mother, and when all this happens, he will give birth to ten or eight grandchildren for you." Lao Wang heard that his son had a sweetheart, he was overjoyed, asked a few words carefully, and went away satisfied, and after a long time Wang Eighteen came back, holding a Yin Si approval ticket in his hand, and said: "I found a man who died in vain, called Feng Cheng, you impersonate him to go, I will let the night tour ghost send you to the local land temple, let him go on a business trip, accompany you for a while, be careful in everything, if there is anything to remember to send a message to me!" ”
Lin Qi should go down, and he didn't dare to delay more, and followed the night tour of the little ghost to a land temple, but saw that this place was similar to the ordinary yamen in the world, with antique decoration, and a brown and red desk in the middle, with the local "household registration book". The little ghost who traveled at night escorted Lin Qi into the yamen with a few lonely souls.
When he entered the door, a ghost sent him to snatch the batch of tickets, and before checking and sending them to the land lord's seat, Lin Qi was waiting in the courtyard, and he didn't know who the righteous father found for him to get the batch of tickets, and he couldn't even enter the door, without much effort, one after another, there were ghosts and ghosts sent here, and there were seven or eight people, and there were two ghosts and night wandering ghosts who pulled out the iron chains, tied chains to Lin Qi's seven or eight yin bodies and dragged them away.
Huangquan Road is not easy to walk, and there are no old and young people on Huangquan Road. Looking forward on Huangquan Road, you can't see the moon and stars, looking down, you can't see the dust of the land, looking forward, you can't see Yangguan Road, looking back, you can't see your relatives and friends. There is an old man in his sixties, who can't bear the hard work and shouts loudly: "Why don't you let the paper cows, paper horses, and paper cars burned by my family?" Could it be that you are all greedy? ”
There was a ghost who stepped forward with a whip and whipped a few times, and the old man who smoked kept wailing, and the ghost cursed and scolded: "Entering the mother, you are not a ghost at this time, only when you enter the capital city can you really become a ghost." You can use the stuff you burned now? Didn't you see the master walking like you? Hurry up, don't talk nonsense, or you will have to eat the whip. ”
Lin Qi saw that this little ghost was arrogant, and he was angry in his heart, he had become a ghost, and he was helpless on Huangquan Road, so he couldn't have some kindness? The night-wandering ghost beside Lin Qi seemed to know that he was not angry, so he hurriedly grabbed him and whispered in his ear: "The judge has taken on the responsibility for you, don't worry about this kind of idle matter." ”
Lin Qi's heart froze, what the little ghost said was the truth, it didn't matter how he was, but he couldn't even affect his father-in-law, he was silent when he heard the words, bowed his head and moved forward, the Huangquan Road was bumpy and bumpy all the way, some of the ghosts from all walks of life cried and refused to go, some were full of rhetoric to please the Yin soldiers, and some went straight all the way in a daze...... But no matter how much the Yin Spirit begged and tried all his best to escape, he couldn't break free from the chain of death in the hands of the Yin soldiers, and went all the way back. No matter how tired the soul goes, the ghost will not let you rest and delay the trip, you must hurry out of this Huangquan Road as soon as possible, there is no inn on Huangquan Road, no matter how much money there is in the yang on Huangquan Road, it is also in vain, the destination is one place, the capital of the underworld.
I don't know how long I walked in a daze, and when I arrived at a fork in the road, I saw a lot of ghosts, each holding a ghost, gathered together in all directions, these ghosts were from the south to the north, and there were people who were there before their deaths, all of them were miserable and miserable, only a man in his forties, very rough, and his face was full of indifference. The ghosts next to him were all hanging their heads and crying, or they were begging bitterly, only this man was strutting forward, seeing that he was covered with animal skins, not like a person from the Central Plains.
Lin Qi was curious, and leaned over to the man and said, "This old brother's surname? Where is home? Let's walk Huangquan Road together, that's fate, get to know each other, and have a good response! ”
The man was rough and unintentional, and when he heard Lin Qi ask, he opened his mouth and said: "I am a member of the Baitou Mountain People's Clan, called Yehedargen, I am different from you, when I was dying, let my family boy give the thousand-year-old ginseng I picked a few days ago to Daxian, buy longevity and grab souls, and I will go back in a while."
