My master is the coffin

Chapter 208 Judge Guard
The mule was sure, so we were all relieved and followed him up and down the weeds.

After walking like this for a while, I heard a sound of water in front of me, surging.

The mule led us to climb halfway up the mountain, pointed to the front, and said, "The river has flooded the old city. The entrance to the underworld will also sink under the water."

We nodded: "No wonder, when the errand came to the world, it was called going ashore. It turned out that he climbed up from the river."

The mule nodded, and then said to us, "This entrance is only for the bad guys. You can't."

As soon as I heard this, I immediately became angry.He said angrily: "Are you kidding us? You can't go in here, why did you bring us here?"

The mule looked aggrieved: "You didn't ask. I told you everything I know."

Mrs. Zhang said to me: "Xu You, he is not to blame for this matter. He doesn't know much about our plan."

Wushuang frowned and said, "Are the souls in this world brought to the underworld by you ghosts?"

Mule nodded: "That's right, that's right."

Wushuang said happily: "Then it's easy. You treat us as souls and take us to the underworld, can't you?"

The mule shook his head: "Only souls whose lifespan has expired can pass through here. Living souls cannot enter."

Wu Shuang said angrily: "Who made these broken rules? Hades? We are going to the underworld to assassinate, so why do we care about these broken rules?"

The mule said respectfully: "It's not Pluto, it's a rule formed in the world when the world was first formed, no matter it is human, ghost, or even immortal Buddha, it can't be changed. You are Taoists, you should know that Taoism follows nature." .”

I asked with some doubts: "Impossible. When Zhang Yuan was taken away, his lifespan was not exhausted. Why can he enter the underworld?"

The mule said, "I've heard a little about Zhang Yuan's words. His soul was taken away by the judge himself. Maybe there is another entrance to the underworld, but that's beyond the knowledge of us little errands. This time we are here to capture you and Wushuang. Once we catch them, we cannot immediately take them to the underworld, but temporarily detain them in the human world, waiting for the judge to take the soul away."

We nodded.No one spoke.

All the hope that had been kindled was extinguished.We can't go to the underworld, and we have offended the underworld and caused a lot of trouble.Even if you linger on in this world, become a ghost slave in life, and evolve into a soul pool after death, it will not work.

The mule led us into a cave.We hid here and discussed for days and nights.There is always no way.

Mule became Mrs. Zhang's puppet, so he was naturally extremely loyal to her.We proposed to let mule and the other two ghosts enter the underworld, suddenly attacked Pluto and rescued Zhang Yuan.

Mule didn't refute, but agreed without hesitation.But he was willing to agree to this, not because it could be done easily, but because of the stupid loyalty of a puppet.

Under our questioning, Mule said frankly: "With the three of them sneak attacking Pluto, the possibility of success is basically zero. In fact, with their status, they are not close enough to get close to Pluto."

Wen Yu said: "I have lived for hundreds of years, and my life span should have been reached long ago. Perhaps, I can go down."

The mule looked at her and shook his head: "I can tell when the lifespan of ordinary people is up. But you...I feel that you are different from ordinary people, as if you are not under the jurisdiction of the underworld."

One sentence stunned us: "Not under the jurisdiction of the underworld? What does this mean?"

The mule shook his head: "Perhaps, this mystery can only be solved in the underworld."

We hid in the cave for three days.On the third day, I felt that there were more and more bad weather outside.

The mule said to us: "Hungry Ghost Festival is here. Ghosts who behave well can return to the human world and accept sacrifices from future generations. There are not only ghosts outside, but ghost slaves."

A few of us nodded, all lost, looking absent-minded.

As an outsider, the sloppy Taoist priest has always been concerned about his own wealth and life. At this time, he asked nervously: "There are so many evils outside, what if they sense our yang energy and come to arrest us? Shall we first arrest us?" Put on filial piety clothes?"

The sloppy Taoist meant to ask for our opinions, and his subordinates had already taken the filial obedience out of the bag.

The mule is explaining: "Don't worry, with me here, your yang energy... Hey. Where did you get this filial obedience?"

The mule stared at the clothes in the sloppy Taoist priest's hands, and his eyes were about to shine.

To be honest, these clothes are only worn once when we are pretending to be ghosts, and we tuck them away when we are done.So the clothes are wrinkled and dirty.

But the mule hugged the clothes and touched and kissed them in his arms.Although he has an ugly donkey face, it is still strange to hold such dirty clothes.

After a few seconds, the mule put down his clothes and apologized again and again: "I lost my temper, I lost my temper."

Mrs. Zhang asked, "What's the matter with this dress?"

The mule said, "This dress is a treasure, a priceless treasure. It is the uniform of the judge's guard."

I was surprised and said, "Guard guard?"

The mule nodded: "They are also errants. But their identities are different. They are the first-class figures in the errants. They are specially used as the guards of the judge and accompany him on trips. We have to go around when we see the guards of the judge. You have to salute respectfully when you open it. Where did you get this clothes?"

We tried our best to calmly tell the story about the abbot crying for someone's grave, then he entered the judge's team in a daze and stole some clothes.

The mule was stunned and exclaimed again and again: "An anecdote through the ages, an anecdote through the ages, a great chance, a great chance. Someone can get the uniform of the guards in this way."

Seeing how precious these clothes are to Mule, we tentatively asked, "How is it? With this dress, can we enter the underworld?"

The mule nodded again and again: "Of course, of course. It's unimpeded. Even if you meet the judge, as long as you are careful, you may not show your feet."

We were overjoyed, you scrambled and put on your clothes.

Then we urged the mule: "Take us to the entrance of the underworld immediately. Otherwise, it will be too late after dawn."

The mule stood up and said to us sincerely: "The body cannot enter the underworld. You have to leave your body."

We nodded, this is easy to handle.

We are all cultivators, and it is not difficult for us to get out of our bodies.Only Mrs. Zhang has not practiced Taoism. However, she was originally a lonely ghost who resurrected from a dead body. It is not difficult to get her soul out of her body as long as she takes off the soul lock ring.

The souls of the few of us have left our bodies.At a glance, he saw the sloppy Taoist priest holding a shroud in his hand, still standing on the ground in a daze.

I asked him puzzled: "Sloppy Taoist priest, what are you thinking?"

The sloppy Taoist priest had an embarrassed smile on his face: "Xu You, I won't go. I want to wait outside. If the white fox comes, I have to save my master."

I looked at my body, which was sitting cross-legged on the ground.I sighed: "It's fine if you stay here, the inner alchemy of the white fox is still in my body. If the white fox comes, let it find a way to take it out."

The sloppy Taoist priest has been with us for a long time, and now he is running away, and he is probably a little embarrassed. He said to me: "Don't worry, Xu You, I will stay here and help you guard your body, waiting for you to come back."

I nodded: "Okay."

I turned to the mule and said, "Let's go."

Only then did I realize that Wushuang was looking at me strangely.

I asked her: "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like this?"

Wushuang pointed at me: "Look for yourself."

I looked down and found that the mourning robe was still on me.However, the parts protruding from the clothes, the wrists and palms, all had a layer of black hair on them.

I was startled: "What's going on?"

A voice behind me said softly: "Don't worry, it's animal blood. When your soul has purified the animal blood, the traces of the beast will disappear from your soul."

The person who said this was Wen Yu.I looked back at her and she was in much better shape than me.It's just that the two hands look like animal claws, and the teeth are sharper.

Wushuang stood up for me: "Wen Yu, you are too bullying. You made a blood contract with Xu You and made him so ugly, you lost your beastly appearance."

Wen Yu said quietly: "Xu You will recover soon, it won't take long."

Mrs. Zhang urged us: "It's getting late. Let's go quickly."

None of the errands outside doubted our identities.Some even saluted us from a distance.It seems the mule was right about what he said about the Inquisitor's Guard uniforms.

The mule went first.While leading us forward, he said: "The entrance to the underworld is different every day. We ghosts have survived for thousands of years. We are very familiar with this water area. So just plunge in and rely on the feeling of the water flow , you can accurately find the entrance.”

"What about us?" I asked.

The mule said: "After all, you have never been to the underworld, and you have little experience. If you look for the entrance rashly, you may be washed away by the torrent and return in vain. Therefore, you must wait until July [-]th. On this day, the location of the entrance to the underworld will be changed." marked out."

We asked curiously: "Where is the label?"

The mule stretched out his finger and pointed to the foot of the mountain: "It's there. Do you see it? It's a khaki-colored road."

I looked down from the hill.Only the river flows under the mountain, and the waves beat against the foot of the mountain.Where is the khaki road.

I was about to ask.Wushuang said beside me: "I saw it. I saw it. This road is in the water."

I turned around suspiciously and looked into the water.

This time, I also see clearly.The moonlight and the distant lights shine on the river.It looks white and shiny.However, in the middle of this white line, there is a yellow undercurrent flowing indomitably.Like a khaki road.
