Chapter Eighty-Five: Mirror Crossing
The Shangsi Bureau is subordinate to the three bureaus of the Yama Hall and the Thirteen Districts of the House of Commons, which is directly related to one of the seven major management offices. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Info is a veteran-level institution in charge of human affairs, and many years ago, the Shangshi Bureau still existed independently. At that time, the prosperity of the talent pool was not comparable to today, and there were many officials and quite free people walking in the world. But with the turmoil of the Three Realms, there was also instability in the world. The Shangshi Bureau was integrated into an insignificant position, and the officials gradually declined.
A declining trend has gradually emerged in time, and it is not known how long before there will be a crisis. But this reason is very wide-ranging, and it is also a taboo in the underworld. The superior undead seem to have realized that the underworld is coming to an end, and many of them have long since given up the opportunity to be reincarnated as humans, because they do not believe in how stable the world will be. And the ordinary souls stored in the thirteen districts are still waiting for the opportunity to be reincarnated as human beings in the never-ending vortex of time, and they are just resigned to their fate to follow the goal of eternal existence.
"You little devils, don't hurry up and keep up, time waits for no one. Director Mak shouted rudely.
I want to be fast, but am I fast? You don't look at what we're carrying, it's like a dead pig. Are we going to do coolies as soon as we become adults?Yang Pulp couldn't help but curse in his heart, the four of them were dragging Yuesheng's body with all their might. Since they had just been possessed, they had not yet been able to fully integrate with their bodies, so they naturally could not exert their full strength.
When Yang Pulp, Wright and the others finally dragged Yuesheng's bulky body to the innermost mirror, they finally sat down on the ground tired and panting.
"I'm tired to death! This pig, I estimate that he weighs more than 300 pounds. Fallow spread out on the ground and snorted, his whole body was about to collapse, but his eyes wandered in the direction of Youdao.
"Hey, sissy, shameless, don't look at me. Youdao hugged her upper body and shouted angrily, she was hiding naked in the corner at the moment.
"Oh, look at you, then there must be something worth seeing about me!" said Farlow, teasing, but he yelled like thunder, "Shameless. ”
The yang marrow is also completely weak, and he is wheezing weakly on the side, Wright's physical fitness is not bad, but he also gasped and asked Supervisor Mai, "Sir, how should we go to the bureau to report now?"
Director Mai walked to the cabinet where the mirror was placed, and knocked the middle row of cabinets with his pipe, only to see that the five numbers of ghost runes suddenly appeared on the cabinets that had been knocked out, and the light slowly leaked out from the cracks in the cabinet.
When he opened the No. 1 Taiping cabinet, the light suddenly lit up, like a light bulb coating Director Mak's face with layers of light.
"Who's the first?" asked Director Mai Xiang Yang and the others.
The yang marrow didn't understand for a while, and asked stupidly, "What first?"
I saw Director Mai frowning and sighing, "The first one." Those who have crossed the mirror, you are about to enter the world, who will come first. ”
Yang marrow only felt that his head exploded in an instant, his consciousness was white and spotless, and it was difficult for a soul with body shackles to react to stress. And just as he made a choice, Wright and the others also made a choice at the same time, and they all pointed their fingers to Yuesheng spread on the ground quite tacitly, so tacit understanding was unanimous.
Seeing this, Director Mai had no choice but to speak, "In that case, you should stuff him into this No. 1 Taiping Ark!"
It took almost a lot of effort for Yang Ji and the others to stuff Yuesheng into the Taiping Cabinet, and the large Taiping Cabinet was also squeaked.
"MD, this damn boy, really has nothing to do. Yang Ji scolded, stuffing the fat on Yuesheng's stomach inward, the large Taiping Cabinet was even small and pitiful for Yuesheng.
Finally, with the concerted efforts of Wright, Fallow, and the Pulp, the huge drawers of the Cabinet of Peace were pushed in. And at this moment, the huge mirror suddenly rippled, and the watery ripples rippled, and the yang marrow turned his head in a daze and asked Wright, "Wright, are you ...... Did you see that? I ...... Am I not dazzled? ”
After listening to the words of the yang marrow, Wright suddenly realized that the so-called mirror crossing turned out to be in this form. It turned out that the morgue of the underworld was divided into two, half of which was in the underworld, and the other half was under the management of the human realm. This is the fastest and most convenient place to get to the world. Wright never thought that the underworld and the human world were the same, and such a large mirror would divide the entire morgue, so it was the essence of mirror crossing.
When he raised his hand, Wright's hand had sunk into the silver mirror, and the more obvious ripples spread outward in circles, and the arm that fell into the mirror seemed to be coated with a layer of silver powder.
"Rude stinky boy, get your claws out!" said Director McYer, jumping to his feet angrily, "I don't know what the sky is thick and the earth is thick. ”
Wright shrugged his shoulders indifferently and slowly pulled his arm out of the mirror, and the moment he pulled it out, he only heard an inaudible sound flash on the mirror.
"How do you feel?" asked Youdao with special concern.
"Not bad, I don't feel anything!" Wright replied lightly, smiling a little embarrassed at the angry gaze of Director McT.
"It's really a bunch of things that don't know the height of the sky, and they don't weigh how many pounds and taels they weigh. ”
Yang Marrow didn't understand why this Director Mai was so angry, and changed his face faster than the girl, frowning, "What's the matter, as for being so angry? ”
"Get out, you guys get out of here. Director Mai was even more angry when he heard Yang Miao's words, with a fierce expression.
Yang just wanted to argue but was stopped by Falo, "Hey, silence is golden, don't conflict with him, the second position belongs to you." ”
The pouting pouted and swaggered into the peace cabinet with number two written on it.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward, and Youdao had no choice but to laugh and say, "Sir, there are many offenses, if there is any offense, please include it." ”
Youdao was sincerely sorry, but he was rewarded by Director Namai with a word, "Get out." He huffed and lay down in cabinet three. Falow didn't bother himself, and jumped into cabinet number four. Only Wright hadn't entered yet, he looked directly into Director Mai's eyes, but the other party's dark eyes were full of unfriendliness and anger, could it be that his actions really angered Director Mai's bottom line, or that there were other secrets hidden in the mirror that could not be revealed.
"Sir, I apologize if my actions have really offended you. I really didn't mean it, and if you don't forgive me, I want to know why!" Wright's sincerity was unmistakably persuasive.
Director Mai didn't answer, and stared at Wright for a long time before he suddenly spoke, "Young man, you are very smart and careful. ”
After that, in front of the four cabinets in front of the aisle of a limp, he struck the frame of the cabinet with his pipe vigorously, as if it was reinforcing. The technique is skillful and regular, and it took a long time for Director Mai to turn his head to look at Wright, and after looking up and down, he said meaningfully, "You are very smart, just like what is written on your resume, calm and thoughtful, the golden generation is indeed a character worthy of the name." ”
"You've won the prize, sir, I'm just the most incompetent remnant of the golden generation. Wright said lightly.
But Director Mai shook his head and continued to sigh, "Can you tell me the reason why you want to go to the world?"
Wright didn't expect the director of the morgue to want to know his intentions, so he had to shirk it and say perfunctorily, "My resume has made it very clear, of course, I want to contribute my own strength to the underworld." ”
"I didn't expect you to be very good at talking nonsense with your eyes open. Director Mak joked at the right time, not angry at this obvious lie. But what was the reason for the previous anger?
"Thank you for your compliment!" Wright smiled, like a gentleman in person.
"Wright, maybe I shouldn't say much, but there's still something I want to say to you, and you can choose whether to listen or not. ”
Wright was shocked, but his face remained calm, and he said, "Please, I should listen to the teachings." ”
"Watch out for that nobleman?"
When Wright heard this, his heart seemed to be blocked by a boulder, and he forgot to breathe. The weight of this sentence weighed him down. Sure enough, as previously guessed, Yuesheng's aristocratic identity is definitely problematic, and the nobleman is like a time bomb around them, which may explode at any time, and may blow them to pieces.
"Why do you care so much about us. Wright finally couldn't hold his breath and asked, he knew that his identity as a remnant of the golden generation was already well known. Unprovoked disgust and hatred were the easiest for him to accept, but it was unprovoked favorability that made him deeply uneasy. All along, being hated was the treatment he deserved. As a great sinner of all evils, the betrayer is the source of comfort for his soul only by being hated, and being cared for only makes him uneasy.
"Do my words upset you, Wright?" asked Director McChuk suddenly.
"Yes, I don't think we had any contact with you before!" Wright said flatly.
"You're cautious and alert. You can test the strength of the mirror crossing, aren't you questioning?"
"Are you going to make a deal with me?" Wright guessed Director Mai's intentions and stopped dealing with him.
"I don't have to hide it, I hope you can do something for me when you go to the world, and of course, I will reveal a message to you. ”
"You think too much of me, why me?"
Director Mai smiled, played with the pipe in his hand, and said, "You are thoughtful, and you are the first undead to discover the secret of mirror travel, I believe that you are the only one who can help me do it, I can't wait." ”
Wright felt that Director Mai's transaction was full of temptation, he was the deputy of the Yang Marrow, in principle, he should not trade privately, but he was moved, maybe the value of the secret was beyond imagination.
"I can promise you, but I want to know the weight of the secret first?" Wright thought for a moment before speaking.
Director Mai seemed to be satisfied, and said slowly, "A truth about the ghost temple. ”
