Volume 1 The Journey to the Underworld Chapter 8 The Power of the Dog's Eyes
Niu Tou Ma Mian did not come to find Ermao, they often had a task to go to the human world to capture some ghosts with special circumstances, and bring them back to the judge on duty in the main hall for trial.
After the trial, those evil spirits who do all kinds of evil and commit heinous crimes will be handed over to the eight great Yama kings, who are in charge of the eighteen layers of hell, and they will be responsible for punishment and care.
And ghosts like Ermao and that uncle, who have almost no stains, will be arranged to do some simple physical work on the construction sites of each branch hall on the first floor of the underworld, which can be regarded as a punishment.
Niutou Ma Mian is sending a newly caught ghost over today, by the way, take a look at Ermao.
When Ermao was probing the two of them with dog eyes, they didn't know it, but the first time they saw Ermao, they felt that Ermao was different from before.
"Hey, Ermao, where did you kid go to get incense in the past two days? How do I feel like you're a kid different from before? ”
The bull's head circled around Ermao twice, and he didn't see where Ermao had changed.
Ermao was taken aback by the words of the bull head, he also thought that the words of the Jizo Bodhisattva were unreliable, and the magic in his body was seen by the bull head, but fortunately, Ma Mian's next words dispelled his doubts.
"Didn't you notice that his left eye was repaired? It is estimated that he used too much incense during this time, and the soul power in his body was too full, so he automatically repaired his left eye, and this soul was completed, and the spirit and spirit were naturally different! ”
Ma Mian's explanation was decent and true, but what they didn't know was that Ermao not only completed his soul, but also got a chance against the sky.
"Ah, really? I didn't even notice it myself! I've been patronizing the matter of contacting the tickets for the Soul Room for the past two days! ”
Ermao hurriedly changed the topic and whispered to Niu Tou Ma Mian:
"But last time, I only got back two of the three tickets to the soul room, and one had an accident, alas, it's really hard to do business!"
Niu Tou also heard about this, and he also heard that Ermao didn't pursue the old man, so he couldn't do it, and after he heard it, he also admired Ermao's personality.
"The world is unpredictable, it's normal, you can be so generous, it's also rare! Ma Mian and I are also very glad to know a brother like you. ”
"Oh, by the way, Judge Lu is looking for you, you go to the main hall in the bright sky."
The bull's head deliberately moved closer to Ermao:
"Last time, Judge Lu didn't really embarrass you, right?"
"It's nothing, don't worry, Brother Niu, Judge Lu is very good, and he won't have to deal with my little ghost!"
It's embarrassing P, it's so pleasant to cooperate.
"That's good, otherwise Ma Mian and I won't have a face to see anyone in the future! I'll go first, tomorrow, don't forget. ”
"Okay, Brother Niu and Brother Ma, go slowly!"
The bull head and horse face left, and Ermao's heart was finally put down.
——
"Hey, old horse, let me ask you, don't you really feel anything different about Ermao today?"
Niu Tou, who has left the construction site all the way away, still feels that Ermao feels strange to him today.
"I said Minotaur, what's wrong with you today, staring at Ermao? Is it that you have run out of genuine goods, and you are embarrassed to find Ermao to speak? ”
"Fuck off, I'm serious, old horse!"
Ma Mian and Niu Tou have been partners for hundreds of years, and when they saw that Niu Tou really didn't look like a joke, he seriously recalled the scene just now.
"It seems to be a little different."
"I'll just say, after all, I've been wandering in the underworld for hundreds of years, and I've seen countless ghosts, so I can't be wrong with my feelings. Tell me, what do you think is different in Ermao? ”
The bull head hurriedly urged the horse noodles.
"Guanwei?"
"That's not right!"
"Domineering?"
"Not really."
"How to describe it, I think about it, I want to think about it...... High...... Chilly in high places? ””
As soon as Ma Mian said this, Niu Tou immediately echoed:
"Yes, it's cold in high places, that's what it feels like, like a big man who has stood at the top, looking at the ants under his feet, indifferent, flat, without any interest."
"Isn't it, I'm talking nonsense, are you serious? Ermao is not a master. ”
The horse face was stunned by the bull's words.
"I'm not talking nonsense, it's just this feeling, especially when he looked at us for the second time today, there was definitely this feeling in his eyes, although it was a short time, but I definitely couldn't be mistaken."
The bull head thought about it carefully, and then pulled the horse and rushed to the main hall.
"We have to report this to Lord Lu, he ordered it last time."
——
"What a mystery! If this is exposed, I guess I will have to run away, and I can only choose to be a lonely ghost. ”
But if you can be reincarnated, no one wants to be a lonely ghost.
"Yes, I put the dog's eye on, the box was still in the house that day, and that thing might be a treasure too."
Ermao hurriedly ran to his residence.
"It's okay, the box is still there!"
Ermao picked up the empty box and looked at it carefully in his hand.
When he first got this box, Ermao patronized the study of dog's eyes, and he didn't take the box seriously at all.
The box was made of fine wood, and it was heavy, old-fashioned, with a faint fragrance.
As for what kind of wood it is, Ermao doesn't know, what does the pattern engraved on it mean, Ermao still doesn't know, but this box must be a good thing.
"Try it with a dog's eye?"
Ermao said he would do it, but unfortunately he was disappointed by the result, and he didn't find anything abnormal in the box.
"Hold it first, and have a chance to ask someone who understands."
Ermao put the box away, and when there was nothing to do, he sat down to study the dog's eyes.
Since the dog's eyes ran into Ermao's left eye frame, Ermao's appearance has returned to the same complete state as in the world, and the two eyes do not seem to have any abnormalities.
But Ermao himself could feel the difference in the dog's eyes, and after leaving the nineteenth layer of hell, this was the first time he calmed down to study the dog's eyes.
The abnormality in his soul body, Ermao had already felt it last time, this time he concentrated his soul power on the dog's eyes, and slowly infiltrated into the dog's eyes, and experienced it carefully.
Ermao's soul power now is countless times stronger than when he first entered the underworld, and the bones, meridians, and flesh in his soul are all condensed by very high-level soul power.
When Ermao's soul power completely penetrated the dog's eyes, a blood-red vortex suddenly appeared in the dog's eyes, and the vortex slowly rotated clockwise, and Ermao was shocked to find that he could clearly see the flow trajectory of those soul powers in the mansion space.
Not only can you see, but you can see it very clearly, and even directly ignore all the physical obstacles in front of you, such as the stone house, the stones on the construction site outside, the flatbed truck, the magmatic rock volcano a little farther away, etc., as if nothing in front of the dog's eyes.
In the magma rock volcano in the distance, the soul power contained in the magma that erupted intermittently could be seen clearly.
"This ability is very powerful, just like perspective! If you can reincarnate as a human in the future and still maintain this ability, it will be against the sky! ”
When Ermao looked at Niu Tou Ma Mian, Brother Li, and Uncle before, he simply looked at them with dog eyes, although he could see through their souls, but he couldn't see so far and in such detail.
"It seems that to use this ability, you have to activate the dog's eye with soul power every time."
Ermao continued to tinker with the dog's eyes.
"The vortex was automatically generated and rotated in a clockwise direction, so what if it rotated counterclockwise?"
Ermao did it on a whim, and did what he said.
Entering the soul power into the dog's eye again, the blood-red soul power vortex appeared again, and Ermao began to control the soul power to slowly change the direction of the vortex.
"You really can!"
As soon as the whirlpool changed direction, the soul power close to the dog's eye in Ermao's line of sight suddenly began to accelerate, and it all converged towards Ermao's dog's eye, and was quickly sucked into the whirlpool.
Ermao felt that the little soul power consumed by activating the dog's eye was replenished in an instant.
The range of the whirlpool absorbing soul power is still expanding, Ermao suddenly saw the uncle walking in the direction of his stone house, and before he got close to the stone house, he was pulled forward quickly by the powerful suction of the dog's eyes, Ermao felt as if his soul was about to fall apart, and quickly dispersed the soul power in the dog's eyes, and the vision disappeared immediately.
"Holy, I'm in trouble!"
Ermao didn't care about anything else, so he hurriedly ran out of the house, planning to see the uncle's situation first.
The uncle was already lying on the ground and unconscious at this time, Ermao took a brief look with the dog's eyes, and the uncle's soul was actually much weaker than before.
Humpty Dumpty, who sensed the movement outside, also ran over at this time.
"What's going on, why was there such a big yin wind just now? Lao Chen, what's wrong? ”
"I don't know, I also ran over when I heard my uncle's exclamation."
Ermao hurriedly made an excuse to cover it up, he didn't dare to tell Brother Li that the culprit was himself.
"Lao Chen's condition is not very good, his soul is very weak, this should be caused by excessive soul power overdraft, I have to quickly find the judge to deal with it, otherwise, Lao Chen's soul will have a big problem!"
Brother Li commanded the ghost who came behind him, asking him to hurry up to the main hall to report, while he and Ermao stayed where they were and waited.
"Don't move his body yet, wait for the Judge to deal with it."
"Oh, okay, Brother Li."
Ermao understands this truth, just like those who are suddenly injured or sick in the world, in the case of unknown injuries, they cannot be moved casually, and they must wait for professional medical personnel to deal with them, otherwise, it is easy to do bad things with good intentions and help them.
Ermao looked at the uncle lying on the ground, feeling very guilty.
"It seems that the part of the soul power that the uncle lost should have been absorbed by his own dog eyes...... Ay! This dog's eye is really evil, not only can it absorb the scattered soul power in this dungeon space, but even the soul power in the ghost's body can be directly absorbed, it's too terrifying, fortunately, I found it early......"
