10 The underworld is but a post station
The surroundings are quiet, drowsy only to feel that the world is rotating, the eyes are hazy, as if something is close in front of you, but suddenly far away, near and far, blurred and cold, not cold and biting, but people are easy to wake up.
No, her hut is always warm, and even in winter, the firewood is thriving...... She is afraid of the cold, and the cold will make her feel lonely and sting the scars in her heart...... Like now, she felt like she was back to that night, haunting her like a nightmare, leaving her tormented like hell.
She slowly opened her eyes, the room was gloomy and gray, it was night, why not light a candle...... Settled, she sat up slowly, and her vision gradually adapted to the light in the room, although it was dim, but the room was very spacious, the furnishings in the room were all mahogany, there was a sense of antiquity, the ridge was very high, the roof was all made of glazed tiles, she wanted to go down to the ground with her hands, her hand touched the edge of the bed and was cold, she lifted the cotton mattress, it was a bed made of white marble, no wonder it was so icy.
She got out of bed and found the floor paved with green bricks...... Why not use mahogany to pave the floor, the color of the green bricks is darker, and the soles of the feet are slightly cool. She looked around, although the room was not luxurious, and it was not something that ordinary people could live in, where was this place?
She remembered that she was chased by demons, and she passed out from her mortal injuries, and she thought she was going to die...... Thinking of this, she immediately reached out to probe her pulse, but she was a little weak, and it was no longer a big problem. It can be seen that someone saved her, and the person who saved her should be the owner of this room.
Vaguely she remembered the man who came and went, was he? If so, she would not be surprised at all, she had concluded from the beginning that he was extraordinary, and judging from his dress, it was somewhat similar to this room, calm and noble.
The door of the room was opened, but no footsteps were heard, Biyou turned around, only to see a man standing in front of the door, he was dressed in a pale yellow and dark robe, his black hair was tied high, but his skin was fair and bright, he was quite handsome, his eyes were not big, but his smile was very warm, his red lips were straight, his facial features were soft, he looked like a weak scholar, but the gold crown he wore on his head was dazzling.
"Girl awake?" he closed the door and smiled as he walked over to her.
Bi You bowed his head slightly, "Presumably this son saved me......"
A faint musk fragrance on his body drifted into the house with the air flow pouring in from outside the door, this musk had a refreshing effect, making Bi You feel refreshed immediately.
The man waved his hand, "It was my father who saved you...... The girl has been in a coma for seven days and seven nights, God forbid you are awake. β
"Seven days and seven nights?" said this, Zhu Zhu and Cinnabar couldn't find her for seven days and seven nights, so they must be in a hurry.
Bi You wanted to go to Zhu Zhu and Cinnabar now, but people saved herself, so she couldn't pat her ass and leave, and she didn't know where this was, how she was going to go home, thinking like this, she also asked, "Dare to ask Gongzi, where is this?"
"You don't need to call me Gongzi, my name is Wuge, you just call me by my name. The man was straightforward, and when he laughed, he showed two rows of neat teeth.
Biyou was already atmospheric, since he said so, she was not pretentious, she nodded on the spot, and then said, "My name is Biyou, and the son doesn't need to call me a girl." β
"Biyou? Well, that's a nice name. β
Young people are good at communicating, plus Wuge is straightforward and gentle, three or two sentences, both of them have no sense of restraint, Wuge is afraid that she is not in good health, so let her sit on the chair first, and then tell the story,
"This is the Immortal Underworld, which is what you mortals call the Netherworld Mansion, my father is the Immortal Prince, I am the Immortal Prince, as for saving you, it is purely by chance...... But you are a mortal woman who dares to deal with demons, you really have the courage...... "Bi Youda started from the Netherworld, and he didn't listen to a word of the rest of the words, and the whole person was completely stunned, so to speak, this is ...... She couldn't believe it, she wasn't dead but she was in the underworld? No wonder it was so dark and so cold.
When I came back to my senses, I found that Wuge didn't speak anymore, but just looked at her with a smile, "What's the matter?
"A little ......" she scoffed, in fact, she really wanted to ask if you were a ghost, but out of politeness, she was too embarrassed to ask.
Wu Ge seemed to see through her thoughts, and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, there are not only ghosts in the underworld, I am a human, not a ghost." β
Bi You smiled a little embarrassed......
He continued, "In fact, the underworld is just a post station from life to death, and then from death to life, except for the heinous people here, or those who die in vain, most of them come and go in a hurry, and those who can't go to reincarnation right away will also stay in a special place, and will not walk around at will, otherwise there will be no legal system in the underworld." β
Death in vain? Bi You's mind turned, thinking of his dead parents, didn't they go to reincarnation, and they still stayed in the underworld to suffer?
"My parents died in vain," she whispered to herself.
Wu Ge glanced at her, as if he hadn't heard it, as he said, the underworld has the legal system of the underworld.
"When my father brought you back, he thought you wouldn't live for three days, but I didn't expect you to be really fatal. Wuge quipped,
"You go to bed first, I'll ask someone to get something to eat, I haven't eaten for so many days, my body must be uncomfortable. β
"Thank you......" Biyou did not refuse, she was a mortal, she had not eaten for a few days, and she really had no physical strength.
Wuge smiled again, nodded at her, and walked out.
Bi You sat on the edge of the bed, and there was a chill again, this white marble was originally used to cool off, and it was even colder in this place where the yin qi was very heavy, she sat in the bed, wrapped in a quilt, and her heart was unsettled, thinking of her parentsβin fact, she just wanted to know where they were now...... She misses them so much, the hut was left by her father, she has been reluctant to move away, she always feels that living in it, she can feel that her parents are by her side, guarding her......
Thinking of her as an ordinary woman, she has experienced so many things in the past few days, she is not afraid of the demons, but if she is afraid, there will be more people to sacrifice, and no one can say the fear, when she comes to this underworld, she is surprised more than fear, life is not a golden stone, how can she live a long life, everyone is afraid to come here, anyone will eventually come here, but who comes here alive, think about yourself to have such an opportunity is not in vain.
The Devil That Night...... By the way, Fang Cai forgot to ask him if the demons had left Xianghe Village that night and whether they had slaughtered the villagers. Since the Immortal Monarch is the ruler of the underworld, he must be very powerful, and he should not let the demons harm people......
Just thinking about it, the door of the room was opened again, and several people dressed as maidservants walked in with food, Bi You stared at them tightly, his face was very pale, is it a human or a ghost?
Fortunately, Wuge then followed, and after the maidservant went out, he beckoned her to sit down and eat.
"Hurry up and eat, the chefs of our underworld were all imperial chefs of the palace when they were alive......"
"Plop-" Bi You just picked up the bowl and drank a mouthful of soup, and when he heard this, it all squirted out, the rice made by the dead man, this ......
Suddenly, Biyou felt that her appetite was completely lost.
Wuge is used to it, and she doesn't think it's inappropriate, seeing that she looks like she wants to cry without tears, she laughs out loud,
"I thought you were quite bold," he said, picking up his chopsticks and eating them with relish, "Well, it's delicious, you really don't eat it?"
"I ...... Not very used to it. She told the truth, it was no different from her usual meal, but she just didn't dare to eat it!
"Actually, if you want me to say, this ghost's food is clean, you think, you usually go to the restaurant, and you don't know if the cook spits on the dishes, it's not fragrant, the ghost doesn't have saliva, he doesn't even breathe, and his hands and feet are clean, isn't it very reassuring to eat?"
Biyou stroked his forehead, is there such a comforting person...... This man is funny tight.
But as soon as he said this, she did feel a little more comfortable, picked a few dishes and chewed them slowly,
She had to admit that the taste was really good, and it was worth it to be able to taste the craftsmanship of the imperial chef, thinking like this, she also ate a lot of food.
Wuge looked at her with a smile for a while, and then said, "Don't worry, your parents have been reincarnated,"
Bi You was startled, but when he heard his tone change, he joked again, "I can only tell you so much, and besides, I will be locked up by my father." β
"How do you know who my parents are?" Bi You choked up, and when she heard the news that her parents were well, she couldn't help herself with excitement.
"The surname of Xianghe Village is Bi, and he died in vain, only this one, and his wife......" Wuge is angry and funny, angry that she is crying in a dignified manner, and laughing at her when she cries is really stupid.
That's true, her surname is rare, and it is not difficult to find out, so he left just now to help her check the news, Biyou was very moved.
"Didn't you say that those who died in vain cannot be reincarnated?"
Wuge pointed around and asked, "Do you know why this underworld is called immortal?"
Immortality?yes, everything happened so fast, she didn't pay attention to this, how could there be immortality in the underworld?
"As I said, this underworld is just a post station, and for people death is the end, but for them the underworld is the beginning, and from now on, the past is gone, and the road to the next life is still very long, no matter how many times it ends, they will be reborn; on the other hand, they must understand that if they want to live a long and healthy life in the next life, and have both blessings and blessings, they must do good deeds and accumulate good virtues, so that good people can have good rewards......"
Bi You had some insights, "My parents were good people during their lifetimes, so they were able to be reincarnated. Her two lines of tears slowly descended,
Wuge took out a handkerchief and handed it to her, and there was some heartache in his heart, "Aren't you the same, if you don't die in a big disaster, there will be a blessing in the future, and a good person will eventually have a good reward." β
Biyou took his handkerchief, wiped his tears, and when he looked up again, he had changed into a smile, "Thank you!"
"It's good to laugh, such a beautiful girl, it's not good to cry. He continued to tease her.
I haven't cried for many years, and it's really comfortable to cry, it turns out that she has really suppressed it in her heart for a long time, this underworld is really both the end and the beginning, and she doesn't feel shy when she cries in front of this man.
"Have you eaten yet?"
Biyou nodded, this was perhaps the strangest meal she had ever eaten in her life, bitter and sweet.
"My father knows you're awake and wants to see you......" Wuge leaned closer to her and deliberately whispered, "Don't worry, he's not a ghost." β
Bi You patted his head, "How did I forget, of course I want to meet your father, he is my savior, I have to thank him in person." Later, Biyou originally wanted to say that even if he was a ghost, she would go, but after thinking about it, it was better not to provoke him to laugh at her.
"My father didn't want you to thank him, he just thought you were beautiful and wanted to see more. Wuge got up and made a gesture of please.
Bi You glanced back at him, "That's really my honor." β
"Hey, I didn't fall for it this time. β
"Do you know how pigs die?"
"Which pig, I'll find out. β
"Wow, stupid. β
"Hey, why are you scolding me?"
......
The two of them walked out talking and laughing.
