Chapter 14 Scholar Ghost King by the Bridge
The Wheel King rescued Zhu Jiu, turned around and walked straight to Nai He Bridge.
Zhang Hao supported Zhu Jiu, hurriedly caught up, and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for saving my brother." ”
The Wheel King pursed his lips, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and said, "After crossing the Nai He Bridge later, give this king a little leisure, and you are not allowed to be presumptuous." After taking a few steps, the Wheel King paused again, turned his head to look at Zhu Jiu, and said, "Especially you, fat man!" ”
Zhu Jiu's expression froze, he laughed twice, and followed the two of them with a dull head. With the king of the wheel, he walked across the upper bridge from the Nai Ho Bridge, and when he walked through, he felt comfortable and warmed up, and felt relaxed and happy.
The two of them followed the Wheel King and crossed the Nai He Bridge in the envious eyes of the ghosts. But I saw an old woman scooping soup with a ghost from the past.
The Wheel King approached Zhang Hao and whispered: "This old woman is the world's famous Meng Po, this king only remembers that when this king was young, Meng Po has been here to scoop soup for the soul of the past, and some people say that when the underworld was first established, she was here." ”
At the mention of Meng Po soup, Zhang Hao's expression changed, and he said: "Is it that people who drink Meng Po soup don't remember their previous lives, so my wife is ...... Will she forget me?"
The Wheel King frowned, and said heavily: "This Meng Po soup is taken from the water of the Lechuan River, also known as 'Forgetful Soup', your wife drank this soup, and eighty percent of them don't remember you." ”
Zhang Hao was in a hurry, so he stepped forward to ask Meng Po. The Wheel King was startled, pulled him back, looked at his anxious appearance, shook his head helplessly, and said, "Let's go and find out her mouth!" As he spoke, he ignored Zhang Hao's bending over and thanked him, and walked straight to Meng Po.
When this Meng Po saw the Wheel King, she didn't give a salute, but just scooped Meng Po soup for the ghosts of the past.
The Wheel King didn't care, and arched his hand: "Senior, the wheel is reasonable!" ”
After all, the Wheel King is one of the ten kings of the underworld, Meng Po glanced back at him, then turned her head and glanced at Zhang Hao again, and with a wave of her hand, a transparent light curtain enveloped the two. No matter what Zhang Hao does, he can no longer hear the conversation between the two.
Zhu Jiu saw a pavilion not far from Meng Po's left, and he was overjoyed and ran straight to it. On the pavilion, Zhu Jiuyi sat on the pillar of the pavilion and dismounted, the corner of his eyes twitched, and he suddenly froze. It turned out that where Zhu Jiu looked, the clouds and mist dispersed, and it actually showed the situation of the ancient jade realm.
Qingyu Town, Amber River, Bishan, Zhangfu, Thatched House......
Zhu Jiu looked at the hut for a long time, and no one came out, but he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the situation in Zhang's mansion. There was a person exactly like Zhang Hao who was taking care of Zhang Hao's parents, and I couldn't help but be shocked. Suddenly, "Zhang Hao" left the house and flew straight to Ziyin Mountain in Wangtou Township, and a burst of gray light flashed, showing the image of a half-human and half-demon rat spirit......
Zhu Jiuyuan's eyes glared at the boss and shouted, "Hao...... Brother Hao, that rat spirit is really affectionate, and he turned into your appearance to do his filial piety for you. Hey, Brother Hao, ...... you" Zhu Jiu didn't see Zhang Hao replying, and when he looked back, he saw Zhang Hao standing in front of a smooth big stone, motionless and stunned.
But seeing that the expression on Zhang Hao's face changed again and again, it seemed to be angry, angry, happy, and sad......
Zhang Hao's eyes flashed across the scenes, and in the gray space, there was a stubborn stone floating. Suddenly, the light of the big stone flashed, and the pictures of Zhang Hao from childhood to adulthood flashed one by one. In the end, the nine-colored Huaguang rioted, and the scene on the boulder was chaotic, and the content could not be seen clearly, and it was only after a while that the Guanghua slowly converged, converging into a colorful vortex, slowly shrinking, and finally returning to calm.
"Zhang Hao, what do you see?" I don't know when, the Wheel King appeared behind Zhang Hao and asked.
Zhang Hao's eyes returned to clarity, he turned around slowly, frowning, and he didn't know whether to tell himself or the Wheel King, muttering: "A stubborn stone...... Colorful emerge ......"
"A boulder?" The Wheel King was obviously stunned when he heard this, and then said: "At this time, it is called the Sansheng Stone, which can show the past and present lives of all living beings. Stone? It's unbelievable how your past life could have been a stubborn rock......"
Zhang Hao frowned deeply, he didn't know what he was thinking, he just followed the Wheel King in a daze.
The further they went, the more ghost soldiers they encountered, and after a while, the two followed the Wheel King to a huge palace.
The Wheel King looked at Zhang Hao and said with a smile: "This is the center of the underworld, the Netherworld Palace, and it is also the residence of the Ghost King. ”
The whole body of this Netherworld Palace is pitch black, as if a monstrous giant beast is standing here, and it will not change for eternity. Zhang Hao looked at the hideous giant beast in front of him, and couldn't help but smack his tongue secretly, facing a simple vicissitudes of life, and a mysterious and strange aura came, which made him feel a little breathless.
The Wheel King smiled faintly and was about to help, but saw Zhang Hao's purple and gold flashes on his body, protecting his body. After a while, Zhang Hao no longer felt uncomfortable, and slowly opened his eyes, revealing a flat look. When I looked at the fat man Zhu Jiu again, this product was actually a white light protector, and there was no reaction at all. The Wheel King was secretly shocked, and felt that the two of them were extraordinary.
At this moment, there was a pair of ghost soldiers walking towards the Wheel King, the current general, wearing the black armor of the ring beast, full of beards, showing a mighty atmosphere, saw the Wheel King, just slightly arched his hand, and said in a loud voice: "The Wheel King is coming, this handsome man came out to greet him by the order of His Majesty the Ghost King, please!" ”
The Wheel King laughed and said, "Tu Shuai doesn't have to be polite, let's go!" As he spoke, he made a gesture of please.
Tu Shuai!
Zhang Hao's face changed, and along the way, the Wheel King introduced all the main characters of the Netherworld. Zhang Hao was very impressed by this Tu Shuai, there were "ten ghost handsome" under the command of the ghost king, each of them was profound, able to fight well, and pacified the netherworld for the ghost king, and made great achievements. And this Tu Shuai's real name is Tu Hong, and he is the first of the top ten ghost handsomes, which shows his bravery, no wonder the Wheel King is also polite to him.
"Huh? Who are these two? Suddenly, Tu Hong looked at Zhang Hao and Zhu Jiu beside the Wheel King, his eyes flashed, and he asked loudly.
"Hehe, these two are the little friends I met in the yang world, and I have something important to help with the ghost king!" The Wheel King chuckled and introduced.
Tu Hong glanced at Zhang Hao and Zhu Jiu again intentionally or unintentionally, and without hesitation, he walked side by side with the Wheel King to the Netherworld Palace.
This Netherworld Palace is huge, ten steps to a pavilion, a hundred steps to a pavilion, full of palaces, all black, flickering dark and bright, flashing a faint dark cyan light, looking gloomy and weird.
Zhang Hao and Zhu Jiu followed Tu Hong around the side hall of the front palace and came to the highest palace of the Netherworld. When Zhang Hao looked up, he saw that the three words "Senluo Palace" were written on the plaque of the hall, showing a magnificent atmosphere.
Tu Hong turned his head to the wheel king and said, "Your Highness, wait a minute, Ben Shuai will go and report it!" ”
The Wheel King raised his hand and said, "Tu Shuai is at his own convenience!" ”
After a while, a grim voice came from the hall.
"Your Majesty has invited the Wheel King and his friends into the temple!"
The Wheel King smiled faintly, greeted him, straightened his appearance, and strode forward. Zhang Hao and Zhu Jiu didn't dare to lag behind and followed closely.
Two rows of eighteen large pillars stand on top of the main hall, and there are black carved dragons on the pillars hovering with teeth and claws, as if they are under the lake, and from time to time there is a ghostly light flashing, which makes the Senluo Hall add a bit of weirdness and solemnity. There are no imaginary civil and military ghosts and ghosts in the hall, and the huge Senluo Hall is a little empty.
The Wheel King walked all the way, knelt down on one knee in front of a black dragon case, and said loudly: "The Minister Wheel King sees the Ghost King's Majesty, may the Ghost King's Majesty have no borders!" ”
When he got closer, Zhang Hao also saw clearly, there was a middle-aged man dressed as a scholar sitting behind the black dragon case, gentle and elegant, with a natural smiling face.
"Bold! When I saw the ghost king, I didn't kneel yet! Tu Hong saw Zhang Hao and Zhu Jiu standing stupidly in the hall, and couldn't help but scold.
The Wheel King frowned, looked up at the two, and motioned for them to kneel with a look in his eyes.
The two of them were excited, and hurriedly learned to bow down like the Wheel King.
The ghost king smiled faintly and said, "The two friends from the yang world don't have to be polite, please get up quickly, and the wheel king also asks!" ”
"Thank you, Ghost King!"
The Wheel King, Zhang Hao, and Zhu Jiu got up.
The Ghost King looked at the Wheel King, like a friend who had not seen him for many years, and said in a kind tone: "Wheel King, how many years have we not seen each other, what is the matter with coming to my Netherworld Palace today?" ”
The Wheel King also laughed and said: "Your Majesty, count it up, the minister and His Majesty have not seen each other for nearly eight hundred years, and the minister has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and this time I came here for two things." ”
The Ghost King smiled faintly and said, "Oh, it's been eight hundred years, what's the matter with the Wheel King, just come to the Dao!" ”
The Wheel King was overjoyed and arched his hand: "Recently, there have been many souls lost in the underworld, can Your Majesty know?" ”
The ghost king frowned slightly, nodded, and said, "This king has also heard about it, and he has already ordered someone to investigate this matter." What is the second thing about the King of the Wheels? ”
The Wheel King stretched out his hand to Zhang Hao and Zhu Jiu, and said, "Your Majesty, these two people are people from the ancient jade world, this person's surname is Zhang Minghao, he came to the underworld to find his wife, and he wanted to borrow the book of life and death to take a look, but he didn't know ......."
The Ghost King nodded and said, "The Book of Life and Death is a matter of importance, and extraordinary people can borrow it ......."
When Zhang Hao heard this, he was in a hurry, and without waiting for the ghost king to finish speaking, he knelt down again and said: "Ask the ghost king to be fulfilled!" ”
The ghost king looked at the wheel king and smiled, and said, "It's really a person of temperament, don't worry, this king's words haven't been finished yet." This king just said that mortals can't read the book of life and death, but the judge can, and then tell you! ”
Zhang Hao was overjoyed and thanked him: "Thank you, thank you." Neiko's name is Jin Zhaorong, a person from Qingyu Town in the ancient jade world! ”
The ghost king gently raised his hand to support him, and no matter how hard Zhang Hao used, he couldn't worship anymore.
Then, the ghost king turned his head to look at the judge who was holding a large pen on the side, and said, "Check it!" ”
The judge replied, "Yes, Your Majesty!" Then he looked through the book of life and death.
The Ghost King turned his head and smiled at Zhang Hao, and then talked to the Wheel King about something else. It's just that Zhang Hao's whole mind was on looking at the judge who was thin on life and death, and his whole body trembled unconsciously. As for what the others were doing or saying, he did not hear or see at all.
At this time, Zhu Jiu was not idle, a pair of round eyes stared directly at a maid in front of the ghost king, swallowing saliva. But this woman obviously didn't treat Zhu Jiu very well, her beautiful eyes were full of coldness, her pretty face was frosty, she glared at Zhu Jiu, and then looked at Zhang Hao a few more times intentionally or unintentionally.
After a while, the judge closed the book of life and death, turned his head and said to the ghost king: "Back to Your Majesty, I have checked the book of life and death, only Jin Zhaorong's birth, but I don't see her whereabouts!" ”
"Oh? Missing? Is this weird? The Ghost King frowned and muttered.
I only know what I was born in, but I don't know where I am going!
"Boom", a roar sounded in Zhang Hao's head, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, he couldn't help but shake all over his body, and he couldn't help but take a few steps backwards, his body was unstable, and he hugged his head and screamed, and fell backwards in a daze.
Fortunately, Zhu Jiu's eyes were quick, and he helped Zhang Hao up, and said hurriedly: "Brother Hao, you ...... Are you okay! ”
When the Wheel King saw it, his figure flashed, and he stretched out his hand to pat it, sending his true qi in a steady stream.
After a while, Zhang Hao woke up leisurely, with a "wow", he spit out a mouthful of blood, his face turned pale, and in an instant, the whole person seemed to be much older.
Zhu Jiu was so anxious that he almost cried, kept shaking Zhang Hao, and shouted, "Brother Hao, you can't die." You are dead, leaving Lao Zhu alone in this netherworld, that ...... Then my old Zhu Ke will be miserable......"
"Zhaorong, Zhaorong......" Zhang Hao's eyes rolled, just blindly reading Jin Zhaorong's name.
The Wheel King frowned deeply, and suddenly his eyes were full of light, and he lifted Zhang Hao up, shouting, "What are you doing here?" Maybe your wife is waiting for you somewhere to save you, and if you die, who will save her? ”
The light in Zhang Hao's eyes gradually gathered, broke free from the hand of the Wheel King, and said: "Yes, yes, Zhaorong must be waiting for me somewhere, but ...... But the underworld is so big, where can I find her? ”
The Wheel King looked at Zhang Hao, frowned deeply, and said, "I have to remind you that there are many innocent souls missing in the underworld recently, maybe your wife is one of them, you have to find the reason no matter what!" ”
Zhang Hao was stunned, turned his head to look at the Wheel King, and said, "Yes, I will definitely be able to find her, I will definitely be able to!" After speaking, he didn't care about anything else, and ran straight to the outside of the Senluo Palace.
The Wheel King frowned and wanted to chase him out.
The Ghost King said: "The Wheel King doesn't have to worry, this king will send someone to protect him!" ”
The Wheel King frowned and said, "But...... This ......"
The Ghost King shook his head slightly, and said, "The Wheel King just chats with this king!" Then he said to the maid next to him: "Seven kills, you go and send him to the Nai He Bridge, and then send someone to send him back to the yang world!" ”
The Seven Killing Girls gave up their hands and said coldly: "Yes!" As he spoke, he was going to chase Zhang Hao.
The Wheel King hesitated slightly, took out a black token from his arms, and said, "Please send this thing to Zhang Hao!" ”
The Seven Killers looked at the Ghost King. The Ghost King looked at the Wheel Order in the Wheel King's hand, was slightly stunned, and said, "The Wheel King has really made a lot of money, go ahead!" ”
The Seven Killers took the order and left.
"The last general is on patrol, so let's retire first!" At this time, Tu Hong arched his hand.
The ghost king waved his hand and said, "Tu Shuai will go!" ”
Tu Hong retreated......
