Chapter 10: The Hall of Yama
The road behind was never blocked again, and the old man directly led Gu Qingzhou to the center of the capital city.
A majestic hall appeared in front of Gu Qingzhou's eyes, the hall was covered by blue bricks and red tiles, and was capped with glaze, which was extremely majestic and majestic. The main ridge of the main hall is covered with gold bricks, the vertical ridges on both sides are painted with red lacquer, and wind chimes are hung around the roof, which jingle in the wind.
Directly above the main hall, there is a golden plaque engraved with the three big characters of "Yama Temple".
On each side of the plaque stands a Yin soldier, armed with a spear and a paper scimitar at his waist, looking straight ahead like two stone statues.
Coming to the door of the Yama Palace, the old man of Yin Cha once again held the Yin Badge token and showed it to the Yin soldiers. The two Yin soldiers were expressionless from beginning to end, just casually glanced at the token, then returned to their original appearance and continued to guard the door.
After the old man led Gu Qingzhou into the Yama Palace, there was an imperceptible fluctuation flashing in the emotionless eyes of the two Yin soldiers at the door.
In the Yama Palace, there are Yin soldiers guarding all sides. The first thing that caught my eye was a knife mountain, and there were powerful ghosts walking on the knife mountain at this time, and an extremely tragic cry came out of his mouth, Gu Qingzhou swallowed his saliva, and his face changed slightly.
Behind the knife mountain, there was a sea of fire, and there were also countless unjust ghosts in that sea of fire, burning with raging karmic fire, redeeming the mistakes committed in life, looking extremely miserable, Gu Qingzhou's face changed greatly.
The old man led Gu Qingzhou around the sea of fire, but he saw a huge oil pot again, and there were also countless ghosts and ghosts in the oil pot, and the tragic cries were endless, and it was even more miserable. Gu Qingzhou was horrified in his heart, and his face became very ugly.
After bypassing the Daoshan Fire Sea Oil Pot, Gu Qingzhou's face was already pale with fright. He secretly looked at the old man in front of him, only to see that he looked disappreciative, obviously seeing too much of this kind of scene.
Interior of the main hall.
Directly in front of it is a raised platform with a quaint wooden table on top. A middle-aged man sat on a high platform, wearing a red robe and holding a cinnabar pen, reviewing a book on the table, and an attendant next to the middle-aged man was helping him study ink.
There was a row of Yin soldiers standing on each side of the high platform, all holding sabers at their waists, their faces expressionless, looking like walking corpses, lifeless.
"Your Excellency, the man has been brought. ”
The old man was very respectful to the middle-aged man's luggage on the high platform.
"My lord, here they are. ”
The attendant beside the middle-aged man glanced lightly at the two people standing under the high platform, and whispered to the middle-aged man who was concentrating on reviewing the article.
"Hmm. ”
The judge waved his left hand and motioned for the old man to step back, but he still didn't stop what he was doing.
"Retire!"
The old man saluted the judge respectfully again, and then slowly retreated.
"Hey, why did you leave me here alone?"
Gu Qingzhou looked at the old man who was about to retreat, and hurriedly shouted, finding that he didn't know when he had regained control of his body.
The old man just glanced at Gu Qingzhou with a little meaning, and then exited the hall directly.
Gu Qingzhou looked directly at the high platform, only to see that the judge was still busy with the things he was doing, and he didn't pay attention to himself.
After the old man withdrew from the Yama Palace, his body turned around and continued to walk towards the deepest part of the city.
After a while, he came to another large hall, which looked even more splendid and majestic than the Yama Temple.
Inside the main hall, the old man knelt on the ground more respectfully and shouted to the inside of the empty hall: "My lord, the person has been brought, and he is in the Yama Hall at this moment!"
The voice of the old man echoed in the hall for a long time, and no one answered for a long time, but he still knelt respectfully in place and waited.
After a long time, an extremely majestic voice came from out of nowhere in the empty hall: "This king already knows. ”
"Have you secretly checked if it's really him?" asked the very majestic voice.
The old man knelt on the ground respectfully and replied, "I feel that familiar aura in his body, very strong, very similar to him. ”
"But ......" The old man suddenly changed his words and hesitated.
"But it doesn't hurt to say it!" the majestic voice reappeared.
"But when I brought him, I met the Dark Lord on the Lethe River. The Dark Lord seems to have noticed him too!" said the old man truthfully.
"The Dark Lord?"
The extremely majestic voice seemed to sigh softly, paused and seemed to think for a while, and then continued: "Keep an eye on the three demon kings, if there is any abnormal movement, report it quickly!"
"Subordinates obey!"
The old man saluted the empty hall, and just as he wanted to retreat, the majestic voice sounded again.
"Wait, this must be done in secret. Also, keep his news on the ground and don't leak half a point, understand?" the majestic voice sounded more serious, giving people a strong sense of oppression, and it was obvious that he took this matter very seriously.
"Subordinates take orders!"
The old man bowed to the main hall again, and then withdrew.
The empty hall was empty and extremely quiet at this time, and I don't know how long it took for the voice to appear again, first sighing softly, and then saying, "You finally appeared!"
Inside the Yama Temple.
At the beginning, Gu Qingzhou still felt a little cramped, and stood respectfully in place.
But after a long time, he slowly relaxed, and the naughty temperament in his body was completely liberated.
Looking at those Yin soldiers who were like stone statues, I suddenly had an idea in my heart, and I would run to touch the saber on the Yin soldier's waist, and then pinch the face of the Yin soldier, wanting to see if they were made by statues.
However, the quality of those Yin soldiers is extremely high, and they have always been allowed to be ravaged by Gu Qingzhou in every way, and they still stand in place like statues.
"Boring. ”
After playing for a long time, seeing that none of those Yin soldiers paid attention to him, Gu Qing finally got tired and lost interest, so he sat directly on the ground and began to rest.
After a long time, the judge on the high platform finally put down the cinnabar pen in his hand and looked at Gu Qingzhou who was sitting on the ground and sleeping on the ground.
"Ahem, don't hurry up yet. The attendant next to him hurriedly reminded.
"Huh?"
Gu Qingzhou opened his hazy eyes, rubbed them with his hands, and said in a daze: "It's time to eat?"
"Presumptuous! In the Yama Palace, you must not be rude. The squire said angrily.
Gu Qingzhou stood up from the ground a little lazily and smiled innocently at the two people on the stage.
"It's okay!"
The judge shook his head slightly and said with a smile on his face.
"Gu Qingzhou!"
The judge's eyes were like sharp swords, as if he could directly see through the young man standing under the stage.
"Do you know what this place is?"
Gu Qingzhou slightly tidied up the clothes that were a little dirty just now, the good-looking peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, looked at the judge on the high platform, and said unhurriedly: "I really didn't know when I first came." ”
Gu Qingzhou deliberately paused, his eyes swept around the hall, and he continued: "However, now I know. ”
"Oh?"
The judge looked at the young man in the audience with interest, waiting for his next words.
"The ghost world, Xudu. ”
Gu Qingzhou looked at the judge with a smile on his face, and asked rhetorically, "I don't know why the few adults in the ghost world brought me here?"
The judge was in his heart, he didn't expect this young man to be so smart, and he could guess it just from what he saw and heard along the way.
"Do you feel anything strange about your body after drinking Meng Po soup?" the judge looked at Gu Qingzhou tightly, as if to see him through, and asked lightly.
"It tastes pretty good, but it's not very full. Gu Qingzhou said with a serious face.
"Shhh
After Gu Qingzhou's words were finished, the corners of the two rows of Yin soldiers on both sides twitched in unison.
Dare to say that Meng Po soup is delicious, and dare to say directly in front of the judge in this Yama Palace, I am afraid that there will be no second person in this world.
"Bold, in the Yama Palace, how can I allow you to be wild!" The attendant next to the judge also twitched the corners of his mouth, and shouted angrily directly.
The judge waved his hand, signaling that the attendant was all right. The deep eyes looked at the young man who was not afraid of tigers with newborn calves in the audience, with a smile on his face, as if he had finally determined something, and said: "It seems that it is really you!"
"What is really me, and why did you bring me here?" Gu Qingzhou was puzzled, and his heart was full of doubts at this moment.
"Gu Qingzhou, are you familiar with everything here?"
The judge asked directly.
"What did the Judge say?"
Although Gu Qingzhou's heart was full of doubts, his eyes still carefully observed the surroundings, and in an instant, there seemed to be some scattered fragments in his mind, but he didn't seem to think of anything, but when he looked at the surrounding scene again, it seemed that there was indeed a familiar feeling.
The judge shook his head with a smile on his face and continued, "I'm talking about you, but not you. ”
Gu Qingzhou in the audience was completely messy.
"I'm me, but I'm not me, what do you mean by that?
”
didn't have time to think about it, but I heard the judge on the stage continue: "Gu Qingzhou, your yang life is not over, and this official sentences you to return to the yang world." ”
After speaking, he looked at the attendant next to him, and the attendant nodded, immediately understanding. I saw him walking down the high platform with a pitch-black token in both hands and coming to Gu Qingzhou's side.
"I'm not dead in the first place, what the hell is going on, why did you arrest me and come to the capital?" Gu Qingzhou shouted angrily at the judge.
The judge's words just now seemed to have a slight meaning, but they didn't make it clear, which made Gu Qingzhou's heart very uncomfortable.
"With this token in hand, you can go all the way back to the yang world. The judge looked at Gu Qingzhou with a puzzled look on his face, and did not answer him, but said to himself.
Gu Qingzhou took the token and found that this token was the same as the one in the hand of the old man, but the only difference was that the words "Gu Qingzhou" were engraved on the back.
Gu Qingzhou took the token, walked out of the Yama Palace all the way, walked out of the capital city, stepped across the Nai He Bridge, walked across the Huangquan Road, and retreated to the bank of the Lechuan River.
On the bank of the Lechuan River, Gu Qingzhou found that the old man had been waiting on the paper boat for a long time.
The old man smiled at him, and Gu Qingzhou rubbed his eyes, as if it was his own illusion.
Got on the paper boat.
The paper boat slowly carried him and disappeared into the strange river that shimmered with a ghostly light.
Inside the Yama Temple.
After Gu Qingzhou left, the judge was still sitting on the high platform, but his eyes were glazed, as if he was recalling something.
After a long time, he finally sighed and said to himself: "Gu Qingzhou, you are finally back." ”
