In the endless underworld, there is no sky, it is dark and barren, and the ghosts who stand densely before they die.

There were many ghosts who were maintaining order, stamping on the ghosts that walked by, and a light seal was retracted into the ghost's body, and a hundred of them were pulled away by the other ghosts.

Zhao Zhongyu has merit on his body, and the seal is different when it is stamped, there are a few like him, they are faster than other ghosts, and there is no need to make up a hundred, but ten to take it away.

I don't know how long I walked, but the space gradually became more spacious, there were fewer ghosts walking on the road, and houses and buildings appeared in the distance.

There are thatched houses, earthen houses, and brick houses, the more you go to the central area, the more exquisite the houses, Zhao Zhongyu can even see the palace-style houses, it is very ...... Strange, only a single one.

Palaces, aren't they all in pieces?

Confused, they went inside, through the city, to the other end, and in a flash, they appeared in a large hall.

The shrill screams and the cries of grief exploded in their ears together, and all the ghosts trembled and looked forward in disbelief.

I saw that on the spacious hall, there were ghosts who were holding chains and chaining a few ghosts to jump down to a round mouth, and those ghosts did not want to live or die, and the ghosts were crying wolves.

The ghost was furious, and said angrily while waving his whip: "Dare to resist, go down from the two layers of hell, dare to mess around again, and send you to the steamer hell." ”

Zhao Zhongyu's grimace turned white, and he glanced at the ghost who was also suppressed, both of them were a little uneasy.

The ghost who brought them said, "Don't worry, this is the Yama Palace, and not everyone can come, except for those who have great evil, and only those of you who have great merits can come." ”

Zhao Zhongyu asked thoughtfully: "Those ghosts before ......?"

"They are all living souls who died in vain, there is no great good, there is no great evil, the period of death and life is registered, and after the book is made, they can be dispersed, waiting for the reincarnation of the Nai He Bridge."

And like Zhao Zhongyu, he had to go through the Yama Hall and check the merits before he was put in the city.

Unlike those ghosts who could only grope for themselves, Zhao Zhongyu would be sent directly to the city after being interrogated in the Yama Palace.

Because, "For ghosts like you, there will be sacrifices in the world, and they will be thick sacrifices." ”

The so-called sacrifice is naturally not only five animals and money, but also some things that even ghosts are unwilling to resort to, such as merit and prestige.

These things go from the human world to the underworld, and they have to pay a fee, and they also have to pay taxes.

The ghosts cultivate, and the capital of life is extracted from it, so it is natural to be polite to them.

After the Yama Palace, Zhao Zhongyu even had a one-on-one ghost errand service.

That ghost was almost chubby, with a smile on his face, his demeanor was gentle and friendly, Zhao Zhongyu hesitated a little after looking at him, "Shangguan is a little familiar......"

When the ghost heard this, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed and said: "I don't dare to be the honorific title of Second Master Zhao, it's just a little ghost in the underworld." ”

He smiled and said: "In the ancestral hometown of Yuzhou, Runan, Pingyu Yu's family. ”

Zhao Zhongyu: "...... Yu Jixiang is? ”

"It's a certain third brother, the second in the next family, named Zhongji."

Oh, no wonder it looks so familiar.

Yu Saburo and Zhao Hu had a good time, the two began to fight each other when they were teenagers, for decades, never stopped, a few years before he died, I also heard that Zhao Hu used Zhao Hanzhang to make a glass pit for Yu Saburo.

Yu Saburo ran to Zhao Hu to settle accounts for this, almost bumped into Shile's rebellious army on the road, and fell out of the car in a panic, I heard that it was good to lie at home for half a year, for this matter, the Yu family brought the lawsuit to him.

Zhao Zhongyu thought for a while before remembering, "You've been dead for many years, right?" ”

"Yes," Yu Guancha looked stunned, and then said with a smile: "I've been dead for almost thirty years, and I really didn't expect to see so many acquaintances in the underworld." ”

Yu Zhongji told Zhao Zhongyu that he was going to line up to drink Meng Po soup and cross the Nai He Bridge to reincarnate after he died, but when it was his turn, a large number of people suddenly died in the world.

After death, you have to go to the underworld, the underworld has its own reincarnation mechanism in the underworld, and if the merit is relatively high, you can give priority to the time of reincarnation, and so many people will die at once, including many people with great merit.

So, Yu Zhongji's ranking was low again, and as soon as he saw it, he simply gave up reincarnation and went to apply for a ghost job.

Recently, because there are too many dead people, there are not enough ghosts in the underworld, and the Yama Hall has expanded.

"My original intention was to be a ghost for ten or eight years, accumulate some capital, and continue to invest in a good baby in the next life."

Everyone knows the importance of reincarnation.

Yu Zhongji did not have great goodness or great evil during his lifetime, he belonged to the category of no merit and no fault, and if he was reincarnated, there was a high probability that he would be reincarnated in an ordinary family.

Ordinary people, that's too miserable, so he wants to work in the underworld for a few years, and after earning some capital, he can cast a good baby.

Yu Zhongji quickly congratulated himself on his choice, because, "Who knows, since nineteen years ago, a large number of dead people have begun to die in the world, and there are more and more people in the world, but the number of reincarnated people is getting fewer and fewer year by year." ”

"This is especially true in the past few years, by the way, in the first two years, the underworld received more than 200,000 vain dead souls in one day, and when I checked, they all died of war and hunger, fortunately I didn't steal my life, otherwise I would be in the right year, if I don't starve to death, I will also be arrested to serve as a soldier, and finally die in vain."

Zhao Zhongyu was silent.

Yu Zhongji glanced at him and said: "Don't you say it, we also know by looking at the ghosts and the number of ghosts coming down from the underworld, there must be a war in the world again, and in the past few months, we have to receive a large number of ghosts every day, and the death is very miserable." ”

Zhao Zhongyu pursed his lips and asked, "So I saw so many ghosts before, did they all just die?" ”

"Yes, I died around the same time as you, and when the register is made, I will be dismissed to other places to avoid congestion."

Zhao Zhongyu: "When can they be reincarnated?" ”

"I don't know," Yu Zhongji said, "Maybe they can't wait for reincarnation, and they will starve to death." ”

Zhao Zhongyu's eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief: "Ghosts will also starve to death?" ”

"Of course ghosts will starve to death," Yu Zhongji laughed and said, "Although ghosts are not human-like and need three meals a day, they also need to eat to survive in this underworld, otherwise they will become thinner and thinner, and finally die and become deaf, although they still exist between heaven and earth, they are like dust in this heaven and earth." ”

He flicked his finger through the air, and chuckled, "Wave and go." ”

Zhao Zhongyu's heart tightened.

Yu Zhongji smiled: "Of course, Your Excellency will not become such a ghost. ”

He approached Zhao Zhongyu, took a deep breath, and said intoxicatedly: "Your Excellency has great merit, and this merit is stained with the smell of incense, which shows that there are many people in the world, and there are very important people who are sacrificing to Your Excellency. ”

Zhao Zhongyu's face changed slightly, and he took two steps back, a little farther away from Yu Zhongji.

Yu Zhongji smiled, and was about to appease him when he heard a cold snort.

He looked up at the voice, his face changed, he immediately restrained a lot, lowered his head and said, "Zhao Gong!" ”

Zhao Zhongyu turned his head to look at it, stunned, "Brother......"

Zhao Changyu glanced at him with hatred, and then glanced at Yu Zhongji lightly, just a little ghost, and when he was alive, he was mixed with the position of the chief bookkeeper, you are a Shangshu Ling, what are you afraid of him doing?

The words of reprimand turned around on the tip of his tongue, and he didn't know what he thought, Zhao Changyu swallowed the words back, there was no exit, but his face was not very good-looking, and he said in a deep voice: "Come with me." ”
