289. Judge of the Dead
The woman looked at Qiao Du suspiciously.
"Who are you?"
She asked warily.
"Ah Xin, it's me, don't you know, Qiao Dui!"
Qiao Du immediately got out of the car and said, but the other party only took half a step back, and did not look familiar with Qiao Du at all.
"I see."
Even Qiao Dui had something wrong at this time, he thought about it, according to the situation in Wushan at that time, at the time when he came to Penglai, Ah Xin naturally didn't know himself.
After all, in the mission of the Valley of the Wind, she was already "dead", and that was her end.
And now, since she is in Penglai, no matter what, what Qiao Du has met is Ah Xin from the "past", and she has no problem at all if she has not seen Qiao Dui.
Another question was born here, that is, if this was Ah Xin's past, then what would Ah Xin think of Qiao Du in the past.
However, before Qiao Du could study the problem, the woman spoke.
"I don't know who Ah Xin you are talking about, my name is Qianyun."
She gave her name.
At the same time, in Qiao Dui's field of vision, crimson words like blood appeared.
[She hunts death, catches living creatures, and walks with her with extremely high risks, I hope you don't become her target!] 】
Although the description is not very detailed, it also reminds Qiao Du that this person is very dangerous.
"Strange."
Qiao Twilight began to wonder.
Although this woman looks like Ah Xin, she said that she was not, which also ruled out the possibility that she had been tricky after knowing Qiao Dui, could she really just look alike?
It's a pity that now that she is in a foreign land, Qiao Du can't call the real Ah Xin back from the little witch to confirm, otherwise she will have to make a real or false Monkey King drama.
"You don't look like a person from Suiming Village."
On the other side, the woman who called herself Qianyun asked, and at the same time, she leaned closer, her nose moving slightly, as if she was sniffing the scent of Qiao Dui's body.
"There is no smell of Tai Sui, but there is no need to be imprisoned."
"You know Tai Sui?"
Qiao Du caught the keyword, and didn't care if this person was Ah Xin's business, and asked.
"You don't know Tai Sui?"
Asanomo asked rhetorically.
"Bounce!"
Qiao Twilight reached out like a schoolboy and took a rebound stance.
"Although you're not from Suiming Village, I think you might really need to see a doctor."
Asamu said seriously.
Qiao Twilight found that although she and Ah Xin looked alike, their personalities were still different.
How to say it, if Ah Xin is an old oily office worker who has been in class for 30 years and sits for a day with a cup of tea and a newspaper every day, then Qianyun is like a post-zero worker who has just entered the society and is ready to rectify the workplace.
"Don't care who I am, I'm just a passing traveler, did you just say Suiming Village, did you mean the village in the valley in front of this road?"
Qiao Du didn't know what kind of image he was in the eyes of Qianyun, but in short, the other party's purpose should be similar to herself.
"Yes."
Light Cloud nodded.
"I'm a judge of death, because there are some problems in Suiming Village, so I'm here to check, depending on the situation, I may ask for my life according to the records in the book of life and death."
She didn't hide it and said directly.
"Death judge?"
Qiao Du vaguely remembered that she had seen this name before, but she didn't have a very intuitive understanding, but she didn't expect Ah Xin here, ah no, Qianyun turned out to be a death judge.
And there is a book of life and death or something, she also said in a grand manner that she came to ask for her life, which was strange.
"Sister, I'm a student, I'll send you to Suiming Village, can you tell me what the death judge is?"
Qiao Duan asked cheekily, not caring if Qianyun would doubt herself.
Anyway, if there is really any problem, he will directly make a friend with the other party.
"Students?"
Qianyun frowned, only to feel that this man's mouth was full of some deranged words, even if he hadn't fallen into the demon yet, he was not far from collapse.
When this mission is completed, simply check the book of life and death, and claim his life together.
"Come on, get in the car."
Twilight opened the door.
Qianyun hesitated for a moment, and Qiao Du urged again, and she sat in, only to feel that the space here was narrow, and it was much cramped compared to ordinary carriages.
And this thing is made of paper, it looks like it will break when you touch it, and I don't know how it can bear so much weight.
Although in Penglai, there are many immortals who have had adventures, and it is not uncommon to have great power, but Qiao Dui's appearance here at this time really makes people feel weird.
"Since you don't know me, let's get acquainted again, my name is Qiao Dui."
Qiao Twilight introduced herself as she drove forward in the paper hearse.
"Strange name."
Asamu commented.
"Sister, sister, you haven't said what the judge is."
Qiao Du asked casually.
What he learned on the Internet is that in the face of girls who are about the same age as himself, it is obviously easier for the other party to accept calling his sister than calling his sister.
Of course, the premise is that you have to be handsome and young.
"Where have you been lying for thousands of years?"
Qianyun muttered, feeling that it was a little strange that Qiao Duan didn't know about the death judge, but he still opened his mouth to explain.
"Since the first emperor granted amnesty to the world, all the people have lived with the sky, the people have lived forever, at first, everyone was happy, opening up the territory, but later, the people are aging, and some people have lost their consciousness and fallen into demons, wild beasts are raging, and killing innocents, so Your Majesty built the Great Wall to resist foreign beasts, and set up the Palace of Eternal Life, set up a book of life and death, and sent us as the judges to ask for their lives to prevent the fall of demons."
"I don't understand."
Qiao Twilight told the truth.
I'll just talk about it once."
Asamu didn't mean to explain.
"I understand."
Jo Twilight used [Lies] on herself.
Now he fully understands the system of the death judge.
To put it simply, Penglai people are immortal, animals and plants are immortal, judging from the year name, it may have lasted for tens of thousands of years, some animals have become monsters, attacking humans, and some humans have fallen into monsters because they have lived too long.
Later, the ruler of Penglai built a city wall to protect the remaining Penglai people from being attacked by foreign beasts, and set up an institution called the Hall of Eternal Life internally to deal with some people who might have fallen into demons.
This is very understandable, as we all know, human beings are easy to come into contact with pollution, especially in a world like Penglai, which has strange beasts, and because Penglai people are immortal, pollution will only continue to accumulate, and there is no way to reduce the overall pollution depth of the world by adopting the way of public cognitive anchoring like Qiao Dui's world.
The book of life and death records the lifespan of all Penglai people, and when the lifespan exceeds a certain level, a death judge will be sent to ask for life, as for what method is used to solve the problem, Qiao Duan doesn't know.
"You understand again?"
Asamu frowned.
"No one knows better than I do."
Qiao Du answered, and the paper hearse passed through the mountains and forests, and the village in the deep valley appeared in front of the two of them.
