I'm an immortal in heaven

Chapter 660 The Underworld (2)

The reason why the newly detained souls have to cross the Wangchuan River is because they want to use the water of the Wangchuan River to wash away their karma in this life, and completely cut off their ties to this life.

When the ferry was in the middle of the Wangchuan River, suddenly there was a strong wind and waves in the river, and the boat swayed non-stop, as if it wanted to capsize.

Liu Yuanxing screamed in fright, but the girl stood firmly on the bow and said calmly: "Don't be afraid, this is the cause and effect of the river of Wangchuan washing you."

"Ah?" Liu Yuanxing squatted on the boat in surprise, but before he could ask a question, he saw the black mist in front of him swirl suddenly, and then the Wangchuan River turned a wave and rushed towards Liu Yuanxing.

In an instant, Liu Yuanxing was overturned on the boat by the wave, and then the water of Wangchuan River submerged Liu Yuanxing, and the river washed Liu Yuanxing three times repeatedly within a few breaths.

After three times, the water of the Wangchuan River receded in an instant, and there was not a drop of water left on the boat.

The dazed Liu Yuanxing stood up, but saw the girl looking at him with a smile, "I really envy you. After being washed by the Wangchuan River, you can be reincarnated, and you can even be reincarnated as a human being."

Liu Yuanxing asked: "As long as you are washed by the Wangchuan River, can you be reincarnated as a human?"

The girl said: "That's right, but not everyone can be washed by the Wangchuan River, such as me, even if I jump into the Wangchuan River, it's useless. There are also some heinous ones, they won't be washed when they cross the river, but It is to go to the ten halls to accept the judgment first."

Liu Yuanxing nodded. It turns out that the process of the underworld is so strict, and now I finally know it.

But he thought about it, even if he knew it was useless, he would forget everything after reincarnation.

'boom'

A muffled sound came from the bottom of the boat, and then the whole small canopy boat came to a stop with a jerk, and the two ghost messengers came out of the cabin immediately.

"Here we are, let's get off the boat." The ghost messenger said to Liu Yuanxing.

Liu Yuanxing got off the boat with the two ghost messengers. When he looked back at the small boat, he found that the small boat had left the shore.

Liu Yuanxing looked at the girl at the bow, and wanted to say something, but when he opened his mouth, the words stuck in his throat

On the contrary, the girl bowed to Liu Yuanxing's arm and said loudly: "See you again by fate, maybe I will be the ferryman after a hundred years."

After the words fell, the girl disappeared into the mist together with her small canopy.

Liu Yuanxing finally showed his first smile after coming to the underworld, then turned around and followed the ghost messenger to leave the bank of Wangchuan River.

Leaving the bank of the Wangchuan River, Liu Yuanxing finally came to the core area of ​​the entire underworld, the first hall of the underworld among the ten halls of the underworld.

Seeing the majestic and magnificent Hall of the Underworld appearing in front of him, Liu Yuanxing also became nervous.

On the plaque of the main hall in front of me, there are five words "the first hall of the underworld". On top of it, line up neatly this group of Yin soldiers in armor and holding blades.

Liu Yuanxing was escorted up the steps by the ghost, and came outside the first hall, and there were already many ghosts like Liu Yuanxing standing on the white marble square outside the hall.

Speaking of the ten halls of the underworld, Fang Jian had already undergone an adjustment before he became an immortal official.

It turned out that the King of Hades sitting in the first hall was Bao Zheng, but because he pityed those who died, he repeatedly released them to the world to avenge their grievances. The fifth hall, the current king of the first hall is Qin Guangwang.

Among the ten halls of the underworld, the first hall is the most important, which is dedicated to life and death in the world, governing the good and bad of the underworld, the end of a good person's life, and the affairs of receiving and exalting.If the merits and demerits are two and half, they will be sent to the tenth hall for distribution, and they will still be thrown into the world. Males will be transformed into females, and females will be transformed into males.Those who are more evil than good are taken to the high platform on the right side of the hall, which is called the Niejing Platform. If one is ordered to look at it, he can see whether his heart in the world is good or bad.

Outside the first hall, Liu Yuanxing waited for a cup of tea, and finally it was his turn.

After the two ghost guards escorted Liu Yuanxing into the first hall, they dismissed them. As ghost guards, as long as they sent the ghosts they detained to the first hall, the task of arresting souls was successfully completed.

But their work was not over yet. After leaving the first hall, the two ghost messengers went to the side hall to find the judge of the side hall to receive a new job of arresting souls.

After receiving the job of arresting souls, the two ghost messengers rushed to the human world to arrest souls without stopping, just like this day after day, year after year, repeating the same process over and over again.

And Liu Yuanxing stood in the center of the main hall of the first hall, trembling all over.On his left stands black and white impermanence, and on his right stands a bull's head and a horse's face.

And directly above the main hall, King Qin Guang, the king of the first hall, is tall and tall, wearing the uniform of the Yin Division of the Heavenly Circle and the Earth, and a nine-glazed crown on his head. His face is majestic and his eyes are full of divine light.

"Who is standing next, please report your name." King Qin Guang asked quietly.

King Qin Guang's voice came to Liu Yuanxing's ears, but it was like a rumbling thunder, making him tremble all over.

"I, I, my name is Liu Yuanxing." Liu Yuanxing said tremblingly.

"Where is the family name?" King Qin Guang asked again.

Liu Yuanxing's whole body was as authentic as sifting chaff: "The Yanzhou Mansion of the Tang Dynasty. The family of Daliuzhuang."

King Qin Guang nodded, and then said to the four judges sitting behind the four jade cases on the steps below: "Cha Shan."

These four judges are the four judges in the underworld. From left to right, they are: "Cui Jue, the judge of the Yin Law Department, Wei Zheng, the judge of the Rewarding Department, Zhong Kui, the judge of the Punishment Department, and Lu Zhidao, the judge of the Inspection Department."

Among the four judges, Judge Cui Jue is the head. He holds the book of life and death in his left hand and the soul-hunting pen in his right.

But now the authority of the Book of Life and Death has been partially withdrawn by the Heavenly Court, so if Cui Jue wants to extend the lifespan of mortals in the Book of Life and Death, he still needs to get the approval of the "Secretary Court" of Taixuandu Province.

After King Guang of Qin announced "checking goodness", Wei Zheng, the judge of the Department of Rewarding Goodness, opened the judge's book and began to investigate Liu Yuanxing's good deeds in this life.

"Liu Yuanxing, a native of Daliuzhuang, Yanzhou Prefecture, Nanzhan Buzhou Tang Dynasty, has done great charity twice in his life, 360 small charity 55 times, and helped the poor [-] times." Wei Zheng read out Liu Yuanxing's good deeds one by one.

After hearing this, King Qin Guang said again: "Investigate evil."

Zhong Kui, the judge of the Evil Punishment Department, immediately said to the bull-headed horse face below: "Take the bull-headed horse face, take him to the evil mirror to reflect."

"Abiding by the decree of the law." The bull head and horse face immediately bowed to accept the order, and then stepped forward to lead Liu Yuanxing out of the first hall, and came to the evil mirror platform on the right side of the hall.

The evil mirror platform is eighteen feet high, and the main body is all cast from black stones, even the huge mirror surface is also made of stones.

When Liu Yuanxing stood on the evil mirror platform and was facing the mirror, he saw a flash of light flashed across the mirror made entirely of stones, and then the mirror became extremely smooth and bright, immediately reflecting Liu Yuanxing's ghost into it.

In just a moment, the Nie Jingtai finished reflecting, and saw a flash of divine light on the Nie Jingtai's mirror surface, and a piece of jade Jianjian flew into Niutou's hands.

Niutou was holding the jade slip, and Liu Yuanxing was escorted back to the first hall by the horse face, and presented the jade slip to Zhong Kui.

Zhong Kui glanced at the jade slips, and then read aloud: "Liu Yuanxing, a native of Daliuzhuang, Yanzhou Prefecture, Nanzhanbuzhou, did not commit any serious crimes in his life, but committed minor crimes 140 times. , Four slaps. The crime of 'four nos' has not been committed, and the crime of 'four nos' has not been violated."

The crimes of the four discords and the four innocences mentioned by Zhong Kui at the end are the core criteria for the underworld to judge a person's good and evil.

The four nos, that is, 'disloyalty, disfilial piety, disrespect, and disbelief'.

Four nos, that is, 'rudeness, no righteousness, no integrity, no shame'.

As long as you commit any of these four nos and four nos, you may be judged as a "blackmailer" directly, and the sentence given to you by the underworld will not be light.

"Reward the good and punish the evil, proclaim the law and judge." King Qin Guang finally said.

Afterwards, Lu Zhidao, the judge of the procuratorate, stood up, and saw that Lu Zhidao's eyes were like lightning, he was upright, majestic, and righteous.His duty is to let the good people get good rewards, promote good deeds, make the evil people get the punishment they deserve, and rehabilitate the wronged people.

After Lu Zhidao stood up, he immediately read the sentence against Liu Yuanxing: "Liu Yuanxing, you have done 360 ​​small acts of kindness seven times, and you have helped the poor 55 times, which is more than enough to offset your 140 five small evils. Therefore, you are sentenced to reincarnation after three years. In reincarnation, you are still a man, and your life is rich. But you beat your first wife before you were alive, and this crime cannot go unpunished. Now you are sentenced to three years of torture in the Black Rope Hell in the third hall.

Hearing Lu Zhidao's verdict, Liu Yuanxing hesitated to speak. He beat his wife before his death, but it was a quarrel between husband and wife, and he did not expect to be punished for it.

But when I think that my life is over, and I will never see my wife again, what about the torture and suffering?It's my apology to her.

After Lu Zhidao issued the decree, Liu Yuanxing was escorted to the third hall by ghost messengers.

The third hall is located in the Great Black Rope Hell, and there are sixteen smaller hells under the Great Black Rope Hell, which are specially used to punish evildoers.

The King of Hades who is in charge of the third hall is Emperor Song. After seeing Liu Yuanxing's decree, Emperor Song also made a judgment on Liu Yuanxing: "Push into the small hell of boiling soup and pouring your hands, and suffer from three years of boiling soup and pouring your hands." .”

"Abiding by the law." The judge in the third hall immediately got up and accepted the emperor's decree.

Then Liu Yuanxing was escorted to the "Little Hell of Boiling Soup Pouring Hands" in the sixteen small hells under the jurisdiction of the Great Black Rope Hell.

However, unlike Liu Yuanxing's imagination of pouring his hands with boiled water, the "boiling soup" here is strictly speaking red-hot "hot metal".

And in this underworld, especially Liu Yuanxing is just a ghost and has no self-protection mechanism. From the moment he is tortured, his soul can feel every bit of pain very clearly.

And all of this had nothing to do with Fang Jian. After Liu Yuanxing was sent to the little hell where boiling soup was poured into his hands, Fang Jian turned into a ray of fairy light and flew out of the hell, returned to the human world, and returned to the residence of Daliuzhuang.

After returning to the residence, Fang Jian took out a scroll of jade slips, and wrote the first line on the slips with magic power: "Inspector Note [-]: The ghost messenger was too rough and violent during the process of arresting the soul."

　You guys definitely don’t know what happened to me last night. I just uploaded Chapter 78 last night, and I was sitting in front of the computer writing this chapter, when I suddenly heard the sound of ‘呵呵味’ coming from the sofa behind me. I looked back and saw that it was a snake.Triangular head, very thin, but very long, with patterns on the body, khaki, I checked, it should be a wood viper, poisonous.Then it was beaten to death, whether it bit or hurt people, it deserved to die, because where people live is not where it should come.I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well, though.
