red man

Chapter 252 A pair of eyes

When he was about to use the "Tianci Liuguang Soul Suppressing Seal" to kill the beast's soul, Wei Hao discovered a problem.

The beast's soul has not been condensed, it is completely different from when it was in the yang world.

"Ok?"

It was a little strange, so Wei Hao turned his different pupils to see what happened.

I saw that although the beast's soul had a shape, it quickly disintegrated into tiny particles, and disappeared into the space like smoke and dust.

"Why is that?"

Wei Hao can be sure that the body of the beheaded beast is a real body of flesh and blood, not a fake thing condensed by mana and supernatural powers.

The soul and the body were originally very closely combined, and most of the creatures that Wei Hao killed in the mortal world were in a complete state when the soul escaped.

When the soul leaves the body, it is like pouring out a jug of wine.

But now, the beast's soul seems to be directly transpired into water vapor instead of condensing into liquid water.

"It seems that the difference between the yang world and the underworld is quite big."

It is also a kind of dynamic balance for one's own body to fight against the strange aura around it. With a strong will, one can suppress the invisible dead air and make the body not rot.

Recalling the classics I have read in many places, everything about people is really subtle, no wonder ghosts and ghosts are envious and greedy.

Ordinary creatures entering the underworld will probably be quickly corroded by the dead energy into piles of loess.

However, after human beings have received education, or have experienced many hardships and hardships, their spiritual will can fight against this dead energy.

Monsters can also master this seemingly simple ability, but they need to be enlightened and educated in humanities, otherwise, individual monsters will never be able to understand the different emotions in the process of human development.

It is common for human nature to suppress animal nature.

However, monsters often suppress human nature with animal nature, and can easily abandon the same kind of people of the same race. Only when they acquire human nature can they undergo many changes.

Burdens and benefits, two sides of the same coin.

Standing at the same spot and rethinking the difference, Wei Hao sheathed his knife, and then boldly guessed that the beast must be dead, and the reason why the soul was not fully formed was not that the soul was scattered, but that it was in the underworld, and there was no need to condense it.

After the normal intelligent life body dies, it has to go to the underworld to report and condense into shape, so that it can go on its way and have a direction.

And the destination is hell.

But it is already in the underworld, so there is no need for this.

Even the Gousi people who are needed in the yang world are not necessary in the underworld, just find a place to reincarnate by yourself.

"Gentleman, why don't you suppress its soul?"

"This is the underworld, it's not very convenient."

As he said that, Wei Hao explained to Gouzi a little bit, that after the death of the underworld things, it is very possible that they can disperse directly without having to separate their souls, and then condense and report in a place where they can be reincarnated.

"Wouldn't it be troublesome to deal with powerful enemies?"

Gouzi noticed the point and asked hastily.

"No, those who can fight against me in the underworld must at least start as ghosts and immortals. Then there must be some status. If a guy with this status is destroyed by me, he will not be able to avoid reincarnation like the yang world in the underworld. After all, it is impossible for me to be blown away by my physical body here, because I am in the underworld."

"Yes."

"So, the more ghosts and immortals you are, the more polite you must be to us. After all, they can still be at ease in the first place, but if they are killed by us, they can't help themselves and have to reincarnate. If you think about it, this is like The high-ranking officials and nobles in the Yang Dynasty, who just started to enjoy the blessings, were dismissed from their posts, investigated, exiled for three thousand miles, and even ransacked and executed, who would be happy?"

After such an analysis, Gouzi suddenly felt relieved, but he still felt that there was something weird about it, as if his own gentleman was comforting himself.

Yan Xuanxin in Wei Hao's pocket was silent, thinking to himself: Although Daxiang's words are reasonable, they only mentioned ghosts and immortals. What if they were cultivated by earth immortals or even gods?
If you can't meet in the yang world, it doesn't mean that you don't have it in the underworld.

"Keep going!"

Wei Hao's tone was firm, and he continued to walk forward. The majestic palace in the distance seemed to grow a lot bigger, and it seemed that he was finally getting closer.

After walking for a while, the scenery along the way is constantly changing. Just now, it was warm spring and flowers were blooming. After walking for a few miles, it was scorching summer. After a while, it was bleak in autumn and winter. In just a short while, the four seasons went through a round.

"I have long heard that the seasons of the Underworld are uncertain, and it seems to be true."

Wei Hao didn't know what time and space the underworld was in, but when the day and night changed, he judged that the rotation of the sun and the moon was basically the same as in the world. different.

The Polaris, which is positioned by the Beidou, is basically in the north by west.

It can be seen that the time and space of the underworld have something in common with the world of the yang.

It's just that the power to build the underworld should be different.

"I heard that one day in the world is one year in the underworld. I don't know if it's true."

"I'm afraid it's true, especially for ordinary ghosts. But for the Gosi people, because they have cultivated mana, have supernatural powers, and have divine power, they naturally know the changes. Traveling between Yin and Yang, There should be a way to automatically heal the discomfort of passing time."

However, Wei Hao can't be sure that the whole underworld is like this. After all, he probably judged that the underworld is like spring and autumn through the words of different Gousi people before the reason.

It's a pity that there is no way to learn two tricks from Yuan Junping, otherwise, wouldn't it be easy to walk in this underworld?
Just thinking about it, I saw a short pavilion beside the road, with a sign erected, with the word "Wuli" written on it.

This brand is probably a milestone.

The short pavilion was also lively, many scholars were chatting and joking there, and Wei Hao knew one of them.

"Brother Chen, where are you going?"

"Hey, Daxiang, are you passing by too?" Chen Mengnan, holding a folding fan, greeted immediately, then invited Wei Hao to a seat, and then introduced to his friends one by one, "This is my classmate, whose surname is Wei Hao and the name is Daxiang. He has always been good at fighting against injustice. Martial arts are absolutely superb, and in the past days, he was jealous in Goulan, all relying on his ability. Come, come, drink, drink together."

After all, Wei Hao poured wine from left to right, and sat down with a smile and clasped fists.

After exchanging pleasantries and chatting, Chen Mengnan asked Wei Hao what he was doing, and Wei Hao said that he was going to sue to give justice, but he didn't mean to mention [-] dead ghosts in vain.

After chatting for a long time, someone finally said: "Brother Wei, it is inevitable that there will be hardships when Shangguan handles affairs. And there will always be times when you don't investigate for a while. Be tough to the end, and you will never admit your mistakes."

"Hmph! If someone upholds justice, is there anything wrong with that?!"

Boom!
Wei Hao threw the wine bowl on the table, and turned his eyes to the person who spoke.

"Hey, don't worry about the elephant, don't worry about it. This friend is also a scholar, a family of officials, so he naturally understands the ways of the officialdom. It's always good to have him give some advice."

"No! It's not impossible to give face in the officialdom, but human life is at stake. Officials can afford it, and it consumes their careers as officials. But the ordinary people below, how can they delay? If they delay for a day, they will die! Brother Chen, Such words, don’t mention it again!”

Wei Hao frowned again, "Brother Chen, I'm not talking about you, you were not like this before. Last year when I fought with those talented scholars, you still secretly funded them and helped them openly. Why are you so cautious now?"

"Ah... Daxiang, I'm just the son of a merchant. Naturally, I dare to fight with a few scholars in the prefecture and county. But what you want to fight now is all high-ranking officials. How dare I make a mistake..."

"..."

Hearing Chen Mengnan's words, Wei Hao was silent for a while, nodded, and said with emotion, "Indeed, I can't impose my thoughts on others. Although you and I are not to the point of 'differences and no collusion', this matter , I still have to persevere. Brother Chen, I hope you won't blame me."

"How come, how come, what did you say, Elephant. It's too late for me to admire you. I just want to make you considerate and have no complaints."

"Hahaha...Okay!"

Wei Hao nodded, picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, and then said, "Then continue on the road, so I won't delay the interest of you guys. Farewell!"

After getting up, Wei Hao cupped his fists, then turned and left.

As soon as he left, a few scholars chased after him. One of them held a folding fan and lit Wei Hao and shouted, "You don't know the heights of the heavens and the earth, but do you know where the Yamen opens? If Shangguan loses face, how can we have you?" Good fruit to eat!"

"I don't need to worry about it, whether it's a board or a prison cell, someone will suffer!"

"Arrogance! Don't you hear that officials protect each other? You are suing the officials now! You sue the officials at the high officials. They all know each other. Maybe they are good friends. You are a reckless outsider. If you go, you will die. !"

"Death? Don't worry about such things if you are afraid of death!"

After saying that, Wei Hao's eyes widened, "You guys don't need to persuade me anymore, I've made up my mind! I've made up my mind!"

"You are stubborn!"

"I will end up with you!"

……

However, Wei Hao didn't pay attention to them, and walked forward on his own. After a few steps, he suddenly became excited. He looked again and saw that there were no Wuli short pavilions, and there were no Chen Mengnan and scholars.

It's just a wisp of smoke, an empty space.

Wei Hao suddenly understood that this was Chenghuang's experience during his lifetime.

I'm afraid that the City God had many relatives and friends as lobbyists before he was alive, telling him not to be too straightforward, but to act more tactfully.

The most important thing is to always think about saving some face for Shangguan.

But obviously, the city god didn't do this, because human life is at stake, and because people are different from officials, they are too weak to wait.

Give Shangguan enough face, give time to operate, and then give justice to the people...

Is this late justice still called justice?

Cheng Huang's decision during his lifetime was really resolute, and there was no turning back at all.

No, he originally had a way of turning back, and he himself broke his way of turning back.

It's amazing.

Wei Hao only felt the difficulty after going through it for a while.

Relatives and friends who have been helpful to me in the past, comrades I met by chance when I was studying, and officials who are willing to give some advice. Under the comprehensive persuasion of these human feelings, reason and opportunities, I can still stick to my integrity and principles. It is really great. not easy.

And it is this difficulty that makes it impossible to turn back.

Because, this road is one that I want to go to the end, not for fame and future, but only for the morality in my heart.

It is their own morality, and it is also the justice that ordinary people desire.

"Oh... so damn hard."

Thinking back, my scalp felt numb all of a sudden, if I was a little bit unsteady, I'm afraid, I would sink into the underworld, and I would never even think about returning to the mortal world.

At any rate, I still have the ability to stand by myself, and I am not afraid of ghosts and ghosts. How did this city god act under the huge risk when he was alive?
amazing.

Continuing to bury his head on the road, Wei Hao finally saw the image of the palace in the distance, soaring into the sky, reaching to the sky, even more like a sculpture than a palace.

This is a giant in robes, standing arched, but you can't see his face, because the sky just reaches his chest and abdomen, where the folded hands are tightly pressed by the clouds.

And deep in the clouds, a pair of eyes suddenly opened, shining on Wei Hao.

Looking at those eyes, Wei Hao's heart was shocked, and he suddenly felt his own insignificance.

This is the natural feeling of mortals in the face of towering mountains.

However, these eyes are a little different. They have never blinked, and have been observing the changes in the underworld.

Wei Hao, a creature who broke into the underworld, naturally couldn't escape the observation of these eyes.

Standing there, Wei Hao had a strange feeling that although he was small, he didn't need to be afraid, because the owner of these eyes had no malice towards him.

"It's a strange feeling..."

As soon as the words fell, he suddenly noticed something changed in the sword pouch. When he opened it, Wei Hao froze there, "What's going on here?"
