Chapter 191: The Seventh Hall (I)
Tang Qian didn't expect to meet Judge Cui, Judge Cui was wearing an official uniform, this official uniform seemed to be the unification of the prefecture, the guide had the white clothes of the guide, and the judge had the judge's white and red clothes, so Tang Qian recognized the little old man wearing this dress far away at a glance.
Judge Cui didn't seem to expect to meet Tang Qian, so he said hello, turned around and left, Tang Qian was still strange, but Bai Twenty-three pointed to the side, Tang Qian turned his head to look, that was the courtyard where Judge Cui usually handled cases and interrogated souls, and there was a shocking sound inside, and at the same time, the phantom of the book of life and death was still projecting a soul into it.
Tang Qian frowned, could it be that he was dazzled?
He didn't think much about it, so he pulled Bai Twenty-three to continue looking for the storyteller, and really let him find one.
The storyteller hadn't started telling stories yet, it seemed that he was wandering around, looking for someone to listen to, Tang Qian had seen storytellers once before, and knew that they were good at hiding in the wind, so although that person was dressed differently from another storyteller yesterday, Tang Qian could still know that it was this person.
The storyteller didn't drag his feet, and didn't let Tang Qian wait for him to start telling the story, so that there were many people, but when he staggered by Tang Qian, he gave him a note.
There is no essence of the formation that Sima said before.
Tang Qian was not discouraged, but opened the note, and the hundred and twenty-three beside him stretched out his head and looked at it carefully.
"Meng Po may know, but she needs to find the real Meng Po ......" Bai Twenty-three read softly, looking at Tang Qian, but Tang Qian didn't seem to understand very well.
Tang Qian asked Bai Twenty-three: "Could it be that there are a lot of Meng Po in the underworld?"
Bai Twenty-three replied: "There are many places in the underworld that have the projection of the Book of Life and Death, but not all of them are this huge projection, some dangerous places, places where the projection of the Book of Life and Death is difficult to cover, it is still needed, and the projection of the Book of Life and Death can be projected again, this is also a kind of Taoism, it seems that the Book of Life and Death was born with self-formation when refining, but it has become the most important spell in the underworld." β
Tang Qian's eyes moved.
Bai Twenty-three stretched out his finger and pointed to a courtyard on the left, and then to a courtyard on the right.
When Tang Qianfei went up to the roof, he saw an old man in both courtyards, foaming at the mouth and saying something loudly.
One said, "You don't need to say much, I know what the guilt is." β
The other said, "Even if you are bored, don't tell me, all this is undecided, but there is a certain number in the dark, so how many lives you have in your hands are all human lives in your hands." β
Both of them have exactly the same appearance, exactly the same way of interrogation - don't let people talk, and they are finished in one breath.
It's all Judge Cui.
"What's going on?" Tang Qian looked at Bai Twenty-three, who pointed to his mouth, pointed to the sky, and then shook his head.
It seems to say, "There are things you can find the answer to yourself, but I can't say it, maybe someone will slap me in the face." β
Just like yesterday
Bathhouse.
Sima was also thinking about yesterday's bathhouse, and it was precisely because of yesterday's events that he had to be cautious to contact Tang Qian, and today he just gave Tang Qian a line.
His daily life now is not like in Yunzhou, he needs to calculate in all directions, he just uses a strange weak water bath every day to weaken the karmic fire on his body as much as possible, and then he takes a brush to write Tang Qian's stories, many of the stories come from his investigation of Tang Qian back then, and some are people he met in the underworld who knew Tang Qian, pieced them together, and finally he made up the story himself, adding oil and vinegar, and completing the story.
Not to mention, since Sima started writing, he has gradually turned it from a tool used to gather intelligence into a hobby.
He also made good use of his mastery, the application of the soul from Qingjia, to break up part of his soul and stuff it into the brush, so that the brush can also speak and think.
Perhaps this brush is Sima's closest "person" in the entire underworld, and he can talk to it casually.
"Do you say Tang Qian is confused now?" Sima really wanted to see Tang Qian's expression: "It's hard to guess this matter, and even the little girl in the underworld next to him may not be able to know, I especially want to see Tang Qian's scratching of his ears and cheeks, should I write a little story about him like this?" Sima just seemed to need someone who could nod his head when he spoke.
The shaft of the brush was bent, and it was a nod.
Sima didn't say much, picked up the pen in his hand, and began to write today's storyβthe story that Tang Qian would have a headache at least for a while.
Tang Qian thought about it, then went down to the roof, walked to the courtyard of one of the Judge Cui, and walked in directly, without waiting for Judge Cui to ask him why he came, he first said: "Jizo Bodhisattva." β
This sentence seems to have incredible magic, the guide next to Judge Cui turned around and left, as if he remembered something urgent, and he had to leave, and the soul that Judge Cui was interrogating was also taken away by the book of life and death, and was casually added to the team of people to be interrogated by the judge in another courtyard next to him, and the more strange thing that Tang Qian didn't know was that the judge who suddenly wanted to interrogate one more person thought that he had completed the interrogation of two people, but in fact, he had already completed three people, and the person who was suddenly added appeared out of thin air, but no one knewγ
This is the Returning Void Monk, if you don't want people to know, and even make people's memories change, for mortals and monks with low realms, it is not just difficult to resist at the level of strength.
Just like Tang Qian said, for mortals, they are already immortals.
Returning to the void is the immortal among the monks.
Judge Cui's eyes were blurred, and he suddenly woke up like from a dream, his eyes were focused, and although his black and white eyes were on Judge Cui's old face, they made people subconsciously think of the young monk's face.
Tang Qian knew that this was what the Jizo Bodhisattva said, and if he called him, he would have a way to come.
"I don't know anything. Tang Qian was not polite.
Jizo Bodhisattva, who had put his divine thoughts on Judge Cui, smiled slightly and said, "Please speak." β
Tang Qian asked, "Why are there two Judge Cui?"
Jizo Bodhisattva replied: "Because the underworld has a book of life and death, and the magic weapon of the book of life and death is a doppelganger, or a doppelganger that can be learned, so many people in the underworld can master this supernatural power. β
Tang Qian asked, "What kind of supernatural power is this?"
Jizo Bodhisattva said: "There are many common places in this god, and there are many ways to use it, such as one into many, then the breath of each doppelganger is actually obvious, just like rice soup meets rice, who is more condensed is actually known at a glance, and the cultivation is generally low, if a person incarnates hundreds, maybe even if I use this magic power, the mana of the doppelganger is comparable to Jindan." β
Jin Dan's cultivation is not low, but for a returning monk, it is definitely not high.
Tang Qian didn't know Judge Cui's cultivation before, so he couldn't tell if he was a doppelganger, after all, Judge Cui had a lot of doppelgangers, if he knew, he could see it at a glance.
Tang Qian asked again, "Can I learn?"
Jizo Bodhisattva smiled: "Not everyone can use this magic power in the underworld, and the method of doppelganger is rare in the world, not to mention this kind of doppelganger supernatural power that may not have an endless limit." β
"If you know this spell, or you can make a clone that is exactly the same as your body, those dangerous places, the clone can go, so to learn this spell, you have to pay a lot of money. β
Tang Qian didn't answer, he didn't know if he had any price to pay, after all, he still wanted to leave from the underworld.
Jizo Bodhisattva said again, "Actually, if you can draw a picture of the hundred ghosts in this seventh hall, it will be fine?"
Tang Qian was a little puzzled: "This is also a difficult thing?"
Jizo Bodhisattva said: "If you can learn the doppelganger spell, maybe you can speed up all the hundred death maps in the entire underworld, which is also good for the underworld, and ......" Jizo Bodhisattva looked at Tang Qian, "The entire underworld, there is no complete record of the Hundred Deaths, the Hundred Deaths Diagram only exists in the buildings, pavilions, mountains and rivers, but there is no picture, if you can really draw it, even if you change the Hundred Deaths Diagram after you and make it more powerful, the Hellish Mansion has one more Hundred Deaths Diagram that can be understood...... Inheritance and strength are all great achievements. β
Tang Qian looked at Jizo Bodhisattva, and then shrugged his shoulders: "If you give me some good ink and paper, I should draw a good picture for you." β
Jizo Bodhisattva smiled: "A word is a certainty. β
Tang Qian said, "You don't need to use that bit of cultivation to suppress me, you are laughing disgustingly...... It's not at all like what you're supposed to look like in the Buddhist scriptures I've heard, after all, I've never heard of Jizo Bodhisattva using deceptive spells to make others feel like they're very relatable. β
Jizo Bodhisattva was still smiling: "After all, this is to use someone else's body to talk to you, and it is still very useful to maintain my dignity as a monk of the Void Retreat by some means." β
Tang Qian has always felt since he saw Jizo Bodhisattva
I felt a little strange, and this feeling became more and more obvious after seeing him possess Judge Cui.
So in order to suppress his curiosity, Tang Qian said: "Paper and ink." β
Although Jizo Bodhisattva used the body of Judge Cui, it seemed that many magical powers were still there, and with a wave of his hand, the space actually collapsed slightly, and then he reached out and took out an object from the void, which was a bloody animal skin.
"In the underworld, after the soul dies, the body is reshaped by the book of life and death, and its appearance is as if it is in the world, so it will also have the power of the time when it was in the world, this is a dragon skin, and maybe there are fifty percent of the characteristics of the dragon skin, which should be enough. β
Tang Qian couldn't help but sigh: "If this is the case, this book of life and death is worthy of being the first magic weapon of the underworld." β
It is indeed terrifying that the soul alone can do this, and it seems that the book of life and death is not just as simple as the legendary book of life and death.
"And this ink, just use the dragon's blood. Jizo Bodhisattva grabbed it again, and a black and smelly liquid was taken out of the void by him.
He pinched another trick, and the liquid began to burn quietly, and after a while, a refreshing aroma came out, and the liquid turned from black to red, with a faint gold in the red.
"I've heard that people who love painting can't look down on Baomo the most?"
Tang Qian narrowed his eyes: "How long can this ink be kept?"
"This mass of ink, within three days, is the best to use. "Jizo Bodhisattva almost forced Tang Qian to draw a picture of the hundred deaths of the seventh hall within three days.
Tang Qian didn't even say a word, turned around and left, there were still many things that he didn't understand in the entire seventh hall.
"If you have a path of life and death, you can come and ask me. The Jizo Bodhisattva who was attached to Judge Cui was so controversial that he didn't even forget to say, seeing Tang Qian leave, the soul sent by the projection of the book of life and death above his head to be interrogated was naturally assigned to other judges.
No one noticed the Jizo Bodhisattva possessed by Judge Choi.
