Chapter Twenty-Nine: A Tour of the Underworld (I)
The end of the world is not about food and clothing, and there is less care for them.
Pain continues to suffer, and sorrow does not save sorrow.
Sure enough, the government gave out the grants, but not for those who could have avoided the disaster with money and kept asking for an explanation. This money was given to the soldiers who sacrificed their lives in battle, to the poor class who dumped their bodies on the streets, and to the homeless children.
The government has also set up medical teams to carry out follow-up examinations from the cities to the villages.
The number of deaths is also being counted, down to the individual level.
Koto selflessly dedicated "Jiang Beihe" and did not want the tragedy to happen again.
Preparations are also underway for the reconstruction of the Jiangdong Bridge, and entrepreneurs from all sides are generously donating at this time to mix up the title of philanthropist.
The river is calm, and the personnel has not yet been cleared.
It seems to be a man-made disaster with simple motives, but there is a mystery behind it.
"Are you sure Satan is dead?"
"Dead, there's no scum left!"
"Hmph! stupid humans still want to negotiate terms with me, ridiculous. ”
"Greed is the weakness of human beings, and if we compare our hearts, it is not self-destruction!"
"Stop, don't say that, he's greedy, we're even more greedy. But one is insatiable, and the other is greedy~"
A conversation between Liu Wubei and Xifeng seems to reveal the truth behind it.
Satan approached Zhao Bei and wanted Zhao Bei to fund him to realize his ambitions, and prepare to use the project of the Double Life Body to treat cancer, so as to gain the admiration of all generations.
Zhao Bei conveyed Liu Wubei's meaning, as long as Satan drove the mutated beasts to Jiangdong City and forced people to buy the Zhao Group's house with "Yan Nantian", after the matter was completed, he would wish him a helping hand.
Satan also put forward conditions, he asked Zhao Bei to deliberately inflate the house price, and demanded that all the money from the sale of the house would be used to fund his project.
Crazy people may think about the problem too simply, Satan thinks everything too beautifully, or Liu Wubei thinks everything too beautiful, it is difficult to say who is being used by whom.
Liu Wubei really has a plan, he wants to destroy the world through this disaster, so that He can launch an attack on this world under the guise of salvation and thus rule this world.
......
......
In order to protect Xiang Xiaoyu and them, Pu Ke sent an Iron Man: Satan to their dormitory.
Why did he choose such a name, Pu Ke said that it was to be prepared for danger in times of peace.
Explicitly it is protection, implicit is surveillance.
There are many reasons why Xiang Xiaoyu wants to go this time, and he wants to see his parents for a large proportion.
Pity.
The tide of the sea of corpses was tidal, and they could not see each other.
The fog was too big, the corpses were crowded, and the situation was so critical, and it was raining bullets, so I couldn't tell which shell would be blown up.
Xiang Xiaoyu is not the only one who is sad, because he is not the only one who wants to see his parents.
"The fog finally cleared outside. ”
The fog that had been on for several days was wiped away along with the crisis.
The long-lost sunlight shone in through the window, and it was very hot, unpretentious, and sprinkled on everyone's body.
"When the fog clears, so do the people. ”
Huo was naked, lying on the mat, tossing and turning, squinting, like a sick cat.
Xiang Xiaoyu stared directly at the sun, without blinking, as if he was angry with it, ready to look at it until the sunset.
The nine cylinders shuttled back and forth in mahjong, recalling the small days lying in the arms of Huahai, and it was another beautiful conversation that could be bragged about.
Looking at these returning teenagers, they were not happy, but more disappointed, with sad faces and gloom.
"People live in the world, inherently dead, or lighter than chicken feathers, or heavier than nine cylinders! Look at everything, the big living people have dead faces all day long, this is not an idol drama, you don't have a heroine, why pretend to work so hard, you will hold back internal injuries after a long time. If you want to cry, let go of crying, and laugh out loud if you want to laugh, it's so simple and good. ”
Their distress was clearly seen by the Nine Cylinders.
They can't be blamed for this, as the list of victims includes Huo's mother and Hanko's parents.
"Woo woo woo~"
Hanko immediately began to cry.
"Cry and cry, can you be quiet!" Huo Yi was upset by Hanzi's crying, which made the tear ducts resonate constantly.
"It's in your way, eating your rice?"
"Want to fight?"
"Think...... I shouldn't think about it, hmph, Sister Hua can say it, we used to be twin brothers, and I watched the door, so I didn't do cannibalism!"
"After eight lifetimes of blood, why is it your turn to be a brother!"
"Who isn't!"
It is said that there are two things in the world that cannot be looked at, the sun and the human heart.
Xiang Xiaoyu has broken through the former, and only the latter remains.
"Don't blame anyone, fate offends, there is no right and wrong. Brothers, no one is anyone's puppet, and no one has to be humbled by anyone. ”
The atmosphere suddenly became extremely solemn, and he was anxious to wait for someone to resolve the embarrassment.
"Want to see your parents?"
The nine cylinders jumped onto the coffin board and stretched.
When the three brothers heard this, they were interested.
"Don't tease me, really?" Hanko wiped away her tears.
Huo Yi also jumped out of bed and lifted the nine cylinders.
"If you kid dare to lie to me, you have to blow you up!"
"Hey, hey, master, you let go first!"
Xiang Xiaoyu coughed twice, and Huo Yi spread his hand.
"Is there really a way?" Xiang Xiaoyu leaned his head in front of the nine cylinders.
"Grandpa, will I lie to you, what do you think of my nine cylinders, don't you just talk about righteousness when you come out. ”
"Then tell me quickly!"
"Eh, open the skylight and say something bright, I really said it!"
Hanko immediately closed the window and closed the curtains.
"You...... What are you doing?" the nine cylinders looked surprised.
"If you don't close the window and say dark things, I'll close it. ”
Everyone thought his head was burned out and ignored the incident.
"Take a trip to the underworld, are you interested?"
"It's not going to die!" Hanzi is most afraid of dying, becoming a family with three veins and a single pass, and he can't hang up.
"I'm not sure. ”
Everyone stared at the Nine Cylinders with wide eyes, thinking that the Nine Cylinders were playing tricks on them.
"But, listen to me, it won't have anything to do with death!"
"The windows are closed for you, don't talk about those useless twists, hurry up and get serious!" Hanzi was anxious.
The Nine Cylinders always want to enjoy the mood of their urgent need to know the answer for a while, maybe they were too lacking in attention before.
"Don't say it quickly, I can't eat it for sure, my brothers don't have anything to do, let alone eat it. Xiang Xiaoyu shook his head helplessly.
"Tell me, you ...... like this"
Nine cylinders are a big lump, which roughly means this:
There is a head in the world, and there is also a place in the underworld. After this person dies, he will not be reincarnated immediately, but will first be imprisoned under the underworld for seven years, that is, seven days on earth.
If you want to be reincarnated during the time of detention, the prefecture will let you go home to see your family, and then go to reincarnation, which is not sure what to eat, chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs are possible.
Therefore, most people are reluctant to be reincarnated, and they finally go through some pain and do not want to start over again.
There are exceptions, the area of the underworld is limited, and as the number of ghosts increases, ghosts are forcibly pulled to reincarnate every year.
As long as Huo's mother and Hanzi's parents happened to be in custody and happened not to be pulled to reincarnate, then there was hope to see them.
The way to get to the prefecture is also very particular, and you need to take the "No. 9 train" of the prefecture.
Here are the steps to buy a ticket for train No. 9, which you can't stress enough to pay attention to:
First of all, before going to bed, tie a red thread on the middle finger of your right hand, and tie it a little harder.
Then, put two buckles on the top of the red rope, it matters. The first deduction should be played from the left, which represents the past ticket, and the second deduction should be played from the right, which represents the return ticket.
Secondly, the distance between the two buckles must be large, so that the distance between the bought tickets can be far. The spacing of the deduction determines the distance of the trip, at least one meter or more to buy a universal ticket, any station up and down at will.
Finally, a paper crane is tied to the other end of the red rope, and the crane is placed on the windowsill, waiting for the arrival of 12 o'clock in the morning, when the No. 9 train will pass by the window, and the conductor will take down the thousand paper cranes and pick them up.
"Wow, cool~ Is there really a high-speed rail in the underworld?" Hanzi opened his mouth wide.
"Hmm. Nine cylinders nodded.
"Fast?"
"I'll find out tonight, by the way, are you all motion sickness?"
"I'm dizzy!" Hanko looked aggrieved.
"We're not dizzy!" Xiang Xiaoyu waved his hand to Huo Yi and shook his head, feeling good about himself.
"Okay, you two eat more oranges before going to bed tonight, and those who don't get dizzy on the ground will faint like pigs' heads below. ”
"Are you saying that this pig's head won't faint when it's down there?" the two of them looked at Hanko angrily.
"Hehehehe, I haven't taken the high-speed train yet, and the first time I went to the underworld, I was a little excited. Hanko rubbed her hands.
"It's normal to be excited, by the way, look at my memory, people forget things a lot. You two can't see the rest of the ghosts except me. Paint this, and you can see everything in the underworld. ”
Jiuguan took out a box of alabaster from his trouser pocket, with a fragrance, slightly dark in color, and smooth to the touch.
"One person rubbed a little on his eyelids. ”
Huo Zhi and Hanzi each buckled a little bigger than a bean, applied it to the palm of their hands, and then transferred it to their eyelids as if they were dipped in ink.
"It was chilly and comfortable. ”
"yes, I feel like this can reduce the fever. ”
Xiang Xiaoyu was so moved when he heard this, he couldn't help but want to buckle a piece.
The nine cylinders were hurriedly put away and put into their trouser pockets.
"Absolutely not, my honey, his arsenic. They paint it so you can see dirty things, and if you paint it, you become blind and you can't see anything. ”
"Ah, then what is this?" Xiang Xiaoyu asked in surprise after thinking about it.
"It's expensive, let me tell you, this thing is in short supply, the following box sells ten gold ingots, genuine and pollution-free, green and natural, without preservatives, the product of the wind oil cat. "Nine Cylinders advertised his baby.
"What, what, did I hear it wrong, the product of the wind oil cat, you say this is cat?"
Huo Yi looked at the little remaining bits of palms, thought about the layer on his eyelids, and immediately rushed to the pool to wash his face.
"I ...... Allergic to poop ......"
Hanko plunged headlong into the trash can and vomited.
"Well, I'm a little uncomfortable too, I want to sleep, so you stay away from my bed a little bit. ”
Xiang Xiaoyu held his breath, turned on the air conditioner to the maximum speed, and aimed it at his coffin.
"If you don't listen to the nine cylinders, you will suffer before the early hours of the morning. What can a greasy head and a slippery brain do, there is no one who is refreshing. Jiuguan said angrily.
"No, you misunderstood, we didn't wash our faces just now, and we were afraid that we would spoil things, so we ......"
"Yes, yes, although I don't get motion sickness below, I'm not afraid, I'll spit out all the goods in my stomach first, so as not to embarrass you when I get it, oh no, I'll throw you a ghost." Double insurance, rest assured. ”
Huo Yi and Hanzi sang in harmony, which really amused the nine cylinders.
Each of them had a red rope tied to their hands, and four of them were wrapped together, waiting for the bell to ring.
