Chapter 820: Ten Palaces and Eighteen States
During Ye Chen's sigh, the red-haired ghost judge had already drawn a map of the entire underworld and handed it to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen took the map drawn by the red-haired ghost and looked at it carefully, only to feel that the territory of the underworld was really vast, as if it was vast and boundless, and it was not worse than the human realm.
Ye Chen clearly saw that there were more than twenty important places marked on the map, and these more than twenty important places could be roughly summarized as ten halls and eighteen states.
What are the Ten Palaces and Eighteen Prefectures? The vast underworld is managed by the Ten Palaces Yama and the Eighteen Prefectures Ghost Kings respectively, and whether it is the Ten Palaces or the Eighteen Prefectures, the territory is extremely vast, and there are many cities in each region.
According to the red-haired ghost judge, in the entire underworld, there are only a few places that are not under the jurisdiction of these ten halls and eighteen states.
The first is the Hades Palace, where the Hades resides, and the Hades Hall is not just a temple, but an extremely large city, which is the center of the entire underworld.
Originally, the center of the underworld was not the Hades Palace, since the Hades defeated the Jizo King, he built this huge city, and moved the center of the underworld from the capital to the Hades Palace, becoming a symbol of his rule over the underworld.
In addition to the Hades Palace, there are also Huangquan Road under the control of Meng Po and the eighteen layers of hell directly under the control of Judge Cui Fujun, and there is also the Ghost Realm Fort directly managed by Zhong Zhengnan, all of which are not under the management of the Ten Halls and Eighteen States.
Huangquan Road is not a simple road, but an area, Huangquan Road is just a road that ten thousand ghosts must pass through if they want to be reincarnated in this area, and it is also one of the treasures of the underworld.
Once under the management of the King of Jizo, this Huangquan Road was for people who had just died, if they did not pass through the Huangquan Road, then they would not be able to reach Huangquan, let alone cross the Nahe Bridge to be reincarnated.
However, when the Hades King was in charge of the underworld, there was no longer any reincarnation, and Huangquan Road became an ornament, just a simple treasure.
In this area of Huangquan Road, it is not only a treasure of Huangquan Road, but also Huangquan and Nai He Bridge.
This is a city, only through the Huangquan Road, arrived at the Huangquan, can you step on the Nai He Bridge, drink Meng Po soup, can you enter the six reincarnations to reincarnate.
Therefore, this area of Huangquan Road is the most important thing in the underworld, and of course it is handed over to Meng Po, who is more trusted by the King of Hades, to manage, and in this area of Huangquan Road, there are also many ghost clans living in it.
Because there are three treasures here, and Meng Po is in charge of it herself, it is naturally much stronger than the ten halls and eighteen states.
The eighteenth layer of hell is a special place in the underworld, to put it bluntly, it is the punishment department of the underworld, which is directly under the jurisdiction of the judge Cui Fujun, if the ghost clan of the underworld makes a big mistake, then it will be directly sent to the eighteenth layer of hell to receive cruel punishment.
For the eighteenth layer of hell, not only the people in the human world are terrifying, but even the ghost people are extremely afraid of this, and they are afraid that they will be sent to the eighteenth layer of hell after making a mistake. But whoever comes to the eighteenth layer of hell will shed a layer of skin even if he does not die.
The Ghost Realm Fort managed by Zhong Zhengnan is also a large area, which is equivalent to the place where the ghost soldiers are stationed. Zhong Zhengnan is in charge of these 300,000 ghost soldiers, and these 300,000 ghost soldiers are not ordinary ghost soldiers, nor are they from the ghost clan, but they are refined by the ghosts of the human world.
These 300,000 ghost soldiers are all fierce and vicious, all of which are refined by the souls of some wicked people in the human world or mortals who have the ability to do it before they are alive. Of course, these are only ghost soldiers, and those who serve as ghost generals in the ghost soldiers are all refined from the remnants or corpses of monks secretly detained in the human world in the underworld.
Some powerful monks are still strong after death, and when they are targeted by the underworld, they will find ways to capture the underworld and refine it for their own use.
And some monks have strong bodies, and after death, they are collected by the underworld and refined into corpses, and the combat power of corpses is much stronger than those ghost soldiers and ghost generals who are refined with souls.
Just like before, after the corpse of the willow demon was refined into a corpse leader, the strength was quite strong.
Therefore, the Ghost Castle is also an important place in the underworld, and there are countless strong people in it, which is a powerful combat force in the underworld.
These important places are naturally to be managed by the most trusted cronies of the Hades King, although the ten halls and eighteen states also belong to the territory of the underworld, but compared to the former places, it seems relatively ordinary.
After Ye Chen understood the distribution of the underworld in detail, he nodded slightly, and he also had some bottom in his heart, he memorized the map in his heart, and the map turned into dust in an instant.
"I've done everything you asked me to do, don't kill me......" The red-haired ghost judge looked at Ye Chen with a pleading expression and said.
Ye Chen smiled coldly and said, "Don't worry, I won't kill you, is it still useful for me to keep you?"
When the red-haired ghost judge heard this, he was instantly disheartened, and he said angrily: "Don't deceive people too much, I told you everything you want to know, what else do you want?"
Ye Chen said with a smile: "Even if I let you go now, you have already betrayed the Hades, do you think you will not be killed by the means of the Hades? ”
"It's impossible, as long as it's in the underworld, you can't escape the palm of the Hades. The red-haired ghost hung his head and his face was like a dead ash.
"Where there are no absolutes, in short, you have no other choice now, and you can't die if you want to, it's better to be honest and obedient. Ye Chen smiled indifferently and ate the red-haired ghost judge to death.
The red-haired ghost judge was silent, he knew that he couldn't get rid of it, and he was silent for a long time before he said, "If I help you, can you let me live?"
"It depends on my mood. Ye Chen smiled slightly.
The red-haired ghost saw a glimmer of hope, this can be regarded as Ye Chen's indirect statement, it is better than no hope, he gritted his teeth, his eyes flashed ruthlessly, and said: "Okay, I can help you with everything you have in the underworld." ”
Ye Chen showed a satisfied smile, he liked people like the red-haired ghost the most, even if someone who was useful and afraid of death was the best to control, give him a hope, and he would be able to sell his life.
In this underworld, although Ye Chen already understood a lot of the pattern, he still needed the help of the ghost clan in many cases, this red-haired ghost had good strength, and he could definitely help.
A light flashed in Ye Chen's eyebrows, and a soul power rushed towards the red-haired ghost's eyebrows, the red-haired ghost couldn't stop it at all, he only felt a burst of dizziness in his mind, followed by a sharp pain, and it took a few breaths to recover.
He looked at Ye Chen in horror and said, "What did you do to me?"
"Maybe sometimes I need you to come forward, but I'm afraid that you will turn against you, so I have to be cautious. I didn't do anything, but I left my soul imprint in your divine consciousness, as long as you have the slightest anti-water mind, you will be wiped out in an instant. ”
Ye Chen smiled slightly and said, "Don't try, I have cultivated the power of the soul, and the power of the soul is countless times stronger than that of ordinary people, so you had better be honest, in case the Yuan Shen is worn out by accident, you can't blame me." ”
The red-haired ghost's face was extremely gloomy, he didn't expect Ye Chen to be so cautious, he really didn't give him a chance to rebel at all.
The red-haired ghost didn't dare to try, if what Ye Chen said was true, then he would really die.
"I will definitely do my best to help you. "The red-haired ghost is completely honest, if he still had such and such thoughts before, then he really doesn't have any temper now.
Ye Chen smiled and said, "This is the best, I hope we have a happy cooperation." ”
"What do you want to do next?, do you leave the eighteenth layer of hell or continue to the next layer?" the red-haired ghost judge asked, also desperate for rebellion.
"What is the strength of the judge of the second layer of hell?" Ye Chen asked lightly.
The red-haired ghost judge said: "The strength is on par with me, and if you want to talk about it, if you are a little stronger than me, you won't be able to grab it." Among the eight hells, the Abba Judge of the Ah Nose Hell is the eighth layer of the Merge Realm, and the rest are also in the seventh layer. ”
Ye Chen nodded slightly after hearing this, and then said with a meaningful smile: "Then let's go to the second layer of hell, when the time comes, the judge of this second layer will be handed over to you, I don't want to make a move, don't let me down, this is a test for you." ”
The red-haired ghost judge was bitter in his heart, and he was even more scolding Ye Chen for being despicable, leaving a soul mark in his mind, not to mention, he even asked him to kill the second-layer judge, so that he was completely on the same boat with him, even if he didn't have the control of that soul mark, he could only follow Ye Chen.
Although the red-haired ghost judge knew it in his heart, he didn't say it thoroughly, just nodded and said, "Okay." ”
Ye Chen knew better in his heart that the red-haired ghost judge was not stupid, and he knew his intentions, but what about knowing his intentions?
Ye Chen released the red-haired ghost judge from the Divine Elephant Town Prison, and the red-haired ghost judge glanced at Ye Chen with a look of hatred, Ye Chen didn't care, just said, "Let's go." ”
The red-haired ghost judge put away the resentful eyes, instantly transformed into a rather majestic look, and strode out of the fire palace, Ye Chen followed the red-haired ghost judge to leave the first layer of hell and walked towards the second layer.
On the way, Ye Chen said to the red-haired ghost judge, he played a play with the red-haired ghost judge, and the purpose of the red-haired ghost judge to go to the second layer was to inform the judge of the second layer, saying that there was a genius in the human world who had run to the second layer, and he was chasing him.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with this statement, it is just necessary to play this play well. Although I am not afraid of revealing the filling, it will be a little troublesome if the filling is exposed.
