There is a record in the old merchant book "Jade Calendar Treasure Banknote".

Legend has it that the city of the dead was founded by King Jizo Bodhisattva to house the souls of the dead.

It should be noted here that this is a detention center, not a prison.

The significance of the detention center lies in the fact that most of the criminals here are not qualified to go to the eighteenth layer of hell in the underworld.

The same is true of the city of the dead, after the death of the person who died in vain, he will be concentrated in the city of the dead and imprisoned until the end of the life of the original destined life.

For example, if a person is destined to end his life at the age of 90, but accidentally dies early at the age of 40, he will be imprisoned in the city of the dead until he is 90 years old, and then he will be released from the city of death and reincarnated again.

During this period, the souls of the dead imprisoned in the city of vain can live like the people of the Yang world, and can go to the city to see if the person who murdered him has received the retribution they deserve, but their personal freedom will be strictly controlled, and they will not be able to receive the paper and paper offerings burned by their relatives and friends in the Yang world, nor can they return to the Yang world to receive offerings from their relatives in the Yang world like other dead souls on the Midyear Festival, and all the money and goods burned for these dead souls will be temporarily stored in the place of the Venerable Muren, who assists the Jizo King Bodhisattva, until these dead souls see with their own eyes that the people who murdered him have received their due retribution, and their resentment is comforted, and they propose to release the prisons of the temples, that is, these dead souls can only be transferred after the expiration of their imprisonment in the city of vain death, and then reincarnated according to their good and evil, or rewards or punishments.

To put it simply, the people in the city who died in vain belong to the life and death, the kind of half-dead, the welfare of the dead is not, and the benefits of the living are not to be discussed, you just don't exist here, and the whole world will forget you.

Such an environment is undoubtedly extremely depressing, and such a depressing place, even if Sun Monkey made a big fuss in the underworld back then, he didn't bring enough for a quarter of an hour.

At this moment, Fahai felt this crazy depression.

At a glance, in the eyes, there are all crying ghosts, which ghosts' pupils are almost dry and cracked into a black hole the size of a fist, at a glance, it is very awakening.

In the middle of Fahai's pacing, there are childish old women, widows and lonely, and in the cry of ghosts, it seems to have entered the sea of suffering in the Buddhist gate, and there are people who are suffering all around, and it is difficult to walk in the middle without being affected by them, and if you want to temper them, this is afraid that it will take great courage and perseverance, as well as mana and courage.

Maybe Fahai can cross tens of thousands of yang souls in the yang world, and he can still talk and laugh.

But now, the resentment on the body of every soul here is hundreds of times, thousands of times that of the lonely souls and wild ghosts in the yang world, to temper such a ghost who is obsessed with demons, even if it is as strong as the Fahai and opens the Bodhi Buddha tree, there will not be more than a hundred people who will die at one time.

"Mage, give me something to stutter!"

An old woman with long gray hair stopped Fahai, her eyes already crying into black holes the size of a fist.

Fahai said, "The poor monk has nothing to grow, so the donor should be replaced." ”

"Yangshou!" The old woman's eyes widened and she looked at Fahai, "You're new, aren't you, then you should have a lot of Yangshou, give me a little Yangshou, I only need one finger!"

Fahai said, "You are a person who died in vain, when the time comes, you can go to reincarnation and reincarnation, why do you want to live young?"

"Reincarnation?"

"Reincarnation"

These two words have appeared, and in an instant, the group of resentful ghosts around the entire Fahai has exploded.

I only saw that on the dilapidated city road, which resentful ghosts were gathering towards Fahai, and the sharp ghost screams fell into my ears.

"Look, a new ghost!"

"Haha, we haven't had a new ghost in a long time!"

"This new ghost doesn't understand the market at first glance, now the city of vain death has lost contact with the ten halls of Yama, there is no way to reach reincarnation in the city of vain death, Shou Yuan arrives, his soul will be scattered, no one wants to die again!"

"New here, does your Yangshou look like a lot, come and give me some points. ”

“......”

Fahai looked at the mighty ghosts, many of whom were as tall as three stories tall and had evil ghost leaders, one by one, surrounded Fahai and put on a classic blackmail formation.

Fahai is not afraid of blackmail, Fahai is just worried that his shot will alarm the old demon of Montenegro.

After all, Wukong and they worked hard to contain the people and horses of the old demon of Montenegro, so I had the opportunity to sneak into the city, if my strength was exposed at this time, wouldn't it be a monkey and they were busy in vain?

Just as Fahai was thinking about what to do, a dirty ghost walked in from behind the crowd, and the ghost looked at the group of evil ghosts and couldn't help but gesture.

"Dumb, this dumb guy is looking for trouble again!"

"Pingsuri, this dumb man is nosy, and he is here today!"

"Kill this mute and eat his Yuan Shen Soul!"

Fahai looked at the dumb and thin ghost, the stumbling appearance and bare head, and for a while Fahai's mind returned to a few years ago.

"Senior brother, did you make this tofu soup?"

"No, it's your dumb brother. ”

"Dumb brother, he is a good cook!"

Xiao Fahai sat outside the kitchen and secretly glanced at the mute senior brother, and his honest dumb and shriveled cheeks were full of shyness and shyness.

At this moment, several hideous demons grabbed the limbs of the filthy ghost and tore them in all directions, seeing that the dumb man was about to be torn apart by five horses.

At this moment, the mute suddenly curled up in mid-air, only to see his figure suddenly become smaller, and then the several hideous demons did not catch any of them, and the mute demons jumped and disappeared.

"Catch him!"

"Damn, let him run again!"

"Catch that bald white-clothed monk! Wait, that white-clothed monk is gone!"

Just when the ghosts were confused, at the mouth of the dead end of the unknown city of vain, the white figure stopped, and Fahai's eyes emitted a faint Buddha light, looking at the depths of the alley.

At the end of the alley, a thin ghost sitting on the ground and gasping for breath was resting, he was the mute demon who had rescued Fahai before.

Fahai walked towards the thin ghost, and when the thin ghost saw that someone was coming, he hurriedly stood up, looking like he wanted to run.

Fahai stopped his steps, and his voice was warm, "Senior brother, it's me! I'm Fahai! Don't you remember me?"

Fahai's words contained words and laws, and the thin ghost was affected by this words, and he didn't run out, but he still stared at Fahai vigilantly.

"What's your name?"

Fahai paced towards the thin ghost, his cheeks soft and kind.

The thin ghost opened his mouth, but he didn't make a sound, he reached out and gestured, as if to tell Fahai to get out of here quickly.

Fahai didn't speak, just smiled gently, and the left hand that exuded a faint golden Buddha light slapped on the thin ghost's shoulder, and then gently wiped the thin ghost's arm, and the scratched crack on the thin ghost's body was separated and healed, and the thin ghost looked at Fahai's movements, and opened his mouth wide in surprise.

Fahai moved very gently, and warmed the skinny ghost's body up and down, even the soles of his feet, with the Dharma.

"How did it become like this?" Fahai looked at the soul of the thin ghost, thoughtful, "Your soul is incomplete, the three souls and seven spirits have lost the most important fetal element, one yuan to the beginning, and people to the foundation, no wonder they don't remember me." ”

The thin ghost didn't understand what Fahai said, but he wanted to kneel down for Fahai with a face full of awe.

To the surprise of the thin ghost, Fahai actually bent down to him first, clasped his hands, and said respectfully, "Fahai, the little novice of Qinghe Temple, has seen the dumb senior brother of the Great Elder of the Left Courtyard!"

The dumb and thin ghost hurriedly pulled Fahay up, seemingly very anxious.

Fahai just pressed the thin ghost's shoulder, his eyes narrowed into a slit, "Senior brother, how could you die? Who killed you? Senior brother went to destroy him for you!"

The dumb man shook his head.

Fahai looked at the tallest city lord's mansion in the city of vain, "I don't know, then let's find the old demon of Montenegro." ”

After speaking, Fahai took out a jade ring, "Senior brother, there may be some turmoil next, in order to prevent you from being affected, enter the jade ring, and when I find your lost soul, I will naturally let you out." ”

The thin ghost looked at Yuhuan and was at a loss.

Fahemo recited the mantra, and the thin ghost was sucked into the jade ring.

After doing all this, Fahai paced towards the outside of the alley, and between the steps, he only saw Fahai's white robe dyed blood-red in an instant, and Fahai's back was condensed with a looming Buddha crown, and above Fahai's head, the golden Buddha pillar rose to the sky, and a voice echoed throughout the city.

"Poor monk Fahai, the world venerable of Buddhism! Recently, here, the soul of the dead is exceeded!"

"Black Mountain Old Demon! Give the poor monk, die!"

“......”
