Chapter 3 Ling Chi
"Legend has it that in Hades, if a soul does a good deed during its lifetime, then it can be rewarded, or reincarnated as a human, or soar to the Nine Heavens, but if the soul does something evil during its lifetime, then it will be punished!"
This kind of punishment is called a ...... because it is a relationship between the execution of heaven and heaven Heavenly Punishment!!"
Speaking of this, Gongsun's eyes flashed, and he immediately pointed to the five statues behind him, "In legends, different evil things will cause different punishments in the underworld......
"Not the same? What do you mean...... Different evil deeds will be punished differently, such as the five statues behind us?" Xuan Xi turned pale and looked at Gongsun. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Gongsun nodded slightly, "These statues should have been made by someone to warn some people, I'm afraid, even this temple is the same......"
"The same?" Chen Yutian was puzzled, looking at Gongsun.
Gongsun smiled, "Oh, I forgot to say it just now, in fact, this temple itself is exactly the same as the appearance of the underworld recorded in that ancient book!!"
As soon as Gongsun's voice fell, a thunderclap suddenly sounded outside, and lightning streaked across the night sky, illuminating everyone's faces in the temple.
The dull voice was like a heavy hammer, striking hard in Chen Yutian's heart!
"Mr. Gongsun, do you mean that this ghost temple is the same as the appearance of the underworld in the ancient book that records the legend of the underworld?"
Chen Yutian looked at Gongsun with some solemnity, and his voice was a little serious.
"Although it is slightly different, but the ancient books record that the whole body of Hades is black, and only the two gates are white, and my lord, look there......" said Gongsun Yiyi, pointing to the top of the temple.
Chen Yutian followed his pointing and saw that there seemed to be a plaque directly above the waist slash statue facing the temple gate.
The plaque is not large, and there are also three blood-red characters on it, and the handwriting on it can barely be seen by the dim firelight.
"Qin ...... Temple ......"
Chen Yutian read out the two barely readable words, but because the middle text was not clear, it made these two words a little inexplicable after they were pronounced.
At this time, there was another thunderous explosion outside!!
The heavy rain outside was even more rapid, but Chen Yutian didn't have time to pay attention to these anymore.
At the moment of thunder just now, he finally saw the word in the middle of the plaque!!
That's a "wide" word.
"Qin Guangdian ......" Chen Yutian slowly read out the three blood words on the plaque.
"That's right, my lord, in that legend, the first hall of the first trial of the ten halls of the underworld is called, Qin, Guang, Palace!!" Gongsun said with a glint in his eyes.
Chen Yutian's pupils shrank suddenly!!
The temple in the shape of Hades, the sculptures of the Heavenly Punishment, and the plaques modeled after the Ten Halls of Hades, all of these seem to be related to the legend of the Heavenly Punishment of Hades.
The former, I know that it is impossible!!
If it's just a coincidence, is it too much of a coincidence?
But if the latter is the case, who did it, and what is his purpose?
Chen Yutian subconsciously looked out the window.
Outside, torrential rain was still pouring down, like a curtain of water, obscuring the view, making it impossible to see the foreground and the road ahead......
I couldn't see the face of the avenue a few miles away, completely distorted!1
......
......
The torrential rain did not stop until the early hours of the morning.
The whole world, whether it is mountains and rivers, plants and trees, or houses, is like experiencing a special baptism. This baptism washed away the dust, so that everything in heaven and earth revealed their bright side.
Everywhere it looks, it's like new!!
On the horizon, a fiery red morning sun slowly rose.
A new day is coming.
Chen Yutian and the others, who were trapped in the ghost temple all night, finally ushered in the time to leave this temple.
Several of them, because they discovered the reason for the Heavenly Punishment Sculpture, did not close their eyes for almost the whole night, so that at this moment, almost everyone walked out with a pair of panda eyes.
Of course, the causes of panda eyes are also different.
Chen Yutian and Gongsun stayed up all night because they investigated many suspicious things in the ghost temple all night.
Xuan Xi, on the other hand, was simply scared and couldn't sleep.
Since discovering the five Heavenly Punishment Sculptures, as long as she closes her eyes, she will dream of the blood-drenched scenes shown by those Heavenly Punishment Sculptures, and in the end, she almost didn't dare to close her eyes, nor dare to look at those Heavenly Punishment Sculptures, and spent the whole night in fear.
Of course, the most important reason is because...... The snoring of the two coachmen was too noisy.
Although the two of them were almost frightened when they discovered the Heavenly Punishment Sculptures, it didn't take long for them to fall asleep as if nothing had happened, and they were snoring loudly.
Their snoring was louder than the thunder outside, and the others couldn't sleep at all.
As a result, the three of them barely closed their eyes all night.
So at this moment, they all walked out staring at the big panda eyes.
"Hah......" Xuan Xi yawned, and stared at the two coachmen who came out with a lazy waist and full of resentment casually.
The coachman surnamed Lin saw that the three of them were staring at the big dark circles under their eyes, and asked curiously, "...... you guys Didn't you sleep all night?"
Chen Yutian and the three of them nodded weakly, yes, your snoring is too loud, who can sleep?
"This is not good, young people should rest on time, staying up late is not good for the body......" The coachman shook his head slightly, and immediately walked to the carriage to make the necessary preparations before leaving.
The angry Xuan Xi suddenly had an urge to beat this guy flat!!
Chen Yutian and Gongsun glanced at each other and smiled slightly bitterly.
Soon, the two coachmen had everything in place and were ready to continue their journey.
So, the group embarked on the journey back to Beijing again.
"My father-in-law wants to make up for my sleep, if there is nothing important, don't disturb me......"
After getting into the carriage, Xuan Xi threw down such a sentence and fell asleep deeply.
Chen Yutian smiled bitterly, but when it came to sleeping, he also wanted to make up for it now......
The carriage moved slowly down the avenue, and because of the heavy rain last night, the road was full of mud, so there was no way to go fast.
This also just leaves a chance for the people in the carriage to catch up on sleep.
After all, if it was driven at high speed, the carriage would inevitably vibrate, and in that case, it would be impossible for a person to sleep in it.
However, if you exercise it slowly like this, you won't have any bumps, but you can get a good night's sleep.
"Drive!"
The coachman surnamed Lin waved his whip from time to time to drive the carriage, and on the side of the road in front of him, a small dense forest could be faintly seen.
And, in the middle of the forest, it seemed as if something was still hanging.
He thought it was strange, the thing hanging from the tree looked faintly like a figure.
Could it be...... Someone killed themselves in that tree because they couldn't think about it, right?
He was a little anxious, this kind of thing had happened a lot in the past, so he hurriedly drove to the dense forest, but when he drove close to the dense forest and saw the true face of the things hanging on the trees, he was suddenly stunned!!
His pupils, at the same time, suddenly contracted, and a panicked expression appeared on his face again!!
Immediately afterward, a violent neighing of horses resounded through the dense forest!!
The carriage stopped abruptly again!!
Chen Yutian, who was napping in the carriage, suddenly came to his senses after this neighing, and he quickly opened the curtain of the carriage and asked the coachman who was sitting in the driver's seat, staying there motionless, "What's wrong?"
There was no answer, and the coachman seemed completely stunned.
Chen Yutian looked in the direction he was looking, and in an instant, the pupils of his eyes also suddenly constricted.
Instantly, he frowned.
was also woken up by this sound, as well as Xuan Xi, who was sleeping soundly in the car.
Her Royal Highness the Princess, who was disturbed by her dreams, poked her head out of the car directly, and she wanted to scold the coachman, but before she could spit out half a word, she was completely stunned by the scene in front of her.
What did she see?
She saw that in the dense forest ahead, on top of a relatively tall old tree, there was a bloody female corpse hanging!!
Its limbs, tightly bound by thick iron chains, hung from the old tree.
Its body is covered with bloody wounds like cobwebs.
It's like, being delayed!!
