Yu Shimingyan

Chapter 70
Zaoyi officials ordered one person to be a companion, and the other person entered first.When Shaoqing came back, he recruited Di and said, "Yan Jun called his son." Di followed the officials to the entrance and walked to the front of the hall. The list was called "Senluo Hall".The king in the hall is dressed in a crown, and the statues of gods are painted in the temples of the human world.There are six gods and officials on the left and right, with green robes and soap shoes, high and wide belts, each holding a document book.There are more than a hundred people standing under the steps, with a bull's head and a horse's face, a long beak and red hair, which is hideous and fearsome.Hu Mudi is at the bottom of the steps.Pluto asked: "Your son is Humu Diye?" Di replied: "Yes." Pluto said angrily: "My son is a Confucianist, and he studies rituals. Why are you complaining about heaven and earth, slandering ghosts and gods? Hu Mudi replied: "Di is a latecomer. He learned the ways of the sages and sages early. He lives in poverty, keeps his points, and cultivates himself according to principles. He has no complaints about others." Isn't it a talk of slander?" Di Fang realized that he wrote a poem while drunk, and apologized again: "The thief is drunk, and he can't hold his sex. I read the biography of loyalty and treachery, and I wrote a speech of regret. I look forward to the gods I am very lenient." Pluto said: "Zishi explained his intentions, how can it be seen that the way of heaven does not distinguish loyal and sycophant?"

Hu Mudi said: "Qin Hui betrayed the country and Fan, killed Zhongliang, and died rich and honored all his life. His son Qin Xun, the number one scholar and the first; A loyal minister, all three sons died in exile, and then became extinct. His younger brother was sent to captivity, and the father and son were more prominent. What is the way of heaven?

Pluto laughed loudly: "The son is a rotten Confucian, and the will of heaven is so small. How can he know it? Song Gaozong was originally the third son of King Qian Liu. At the beginning, Qian Liu dominated Wu and Yue, and he was handed down for a hundred years. He has not lost his virtue. Later, because of Qian Chu When he entered the court, he was retained by Song Taizong and forced to donate soil. When Huizong arrived, Empress Xianren was pregnant. She dreamed of a golden armored nobleman, and said with angry eyes: "I am also the king of Wuyue. Your family took my country for no reason, and we Now send the third son to entrust his life to return my territory.' After waking up, he gave birth to the prince, who was Emperor Gaozong. He originally asked for the old frontier, so he crossed to the south and had no ambitions in the Central Plains. Qin Hui will meet with the Lord to discuss peace Of course, the number of days is also; but Zhongliang should not be framed, so God cut off his blood. Qin Xie was not born out of Hui, but the son of his wife and brother Wang Huan, and his tongue-in-cheek wife pretended to be his son. Can you enjoy the sacrifice of a different surname? Yue Fei is the reincarnation of Zhang Fei from the Three Kingdoms. , blood for thousands of years. Wen Tianxiang father and son husband and wife, a family of loyalty, filial piety and righteousness has been passed down through the ages. Wen Sheng's nephew is the heir, and he continues to worship the clan. He is an upright official. If he doesn't replace the family tradition, how can he be without heirs? , or before death, or after death; or blessings turn misfortunes, or misfortunes turn blessings. You have to observe it in combination with the past and present, and you will know that there is nothing wrong. But according to the present, it is like peeping into the sky with a tube, and you can see more of them I don't know how to measure it."

Hu's mother Di Dun said first: "It is very fortunate to receive the advice of the gods and enlighten the ignorant. It is like seeing the sun through the clouds. But the foolish people can know the retribution after death based on the pain and happiness in life. Doing good and avoiding evil is like the sound of the wind, water and the moon. There is nothing to be afraid of. It is appropriate that there are many evil people and few good people. A lowly person is not talented. I would like to travel all over the hell, see the evil retribution, and spread the word to the world, so that the wise can learn from fear and self-education. , Is it approved without trial?" Pluto nodded and said yes.That is to say, he called the green-clothed official, and wrote in a white slip: "Right, look up to the prison officer, and then open the prison, and use this Confucian scholar to observe the retribution of the spring, and you must not violate the mistake."

The official took the order and led Hu Mudi to enter from the west corridor.About three miles after passing the hall, there is a high stone wall with pig iron as the gate.The official knocked on the door three times, and the door opened in Erqing. Several generations of yakshas stood out, and they wanted to capture Di.The official scolded, "this Confucian scholar is not guilty." He taught him the white slips written by Yan Jun.Yasha said: "I only believe that sinners go to prison, but I don't know that you are a scholar. Fortunately, don't be surprised." He bowed to Di and entered.Among them, it is more than fifty miles wide, the sun is bleak, and the atmosphere is desolate.The house numbers on all sides are all listed: "Wind and Thunder Prison" in the east, "Train Prison" in the south, "King Kong Prison" in the west, and "Mingling Prison" in the north.Going to a small gate, I saw more than twenty men, all naked, their hands and feet nailed to an iron bed with huge nails, with iron shackles on their necks, and their bodies were covered with marks of knives and sticks, bloody and pus.A woman next to her, wearing clothes but no clothes, was covered in an iron cage, poured with boiling soup for a night, her skin and flesh were festering, and she screamed endlessly.The green-clothed official pointed to the three people on the iron bed, and said to Hu Mudi, "This is Qin Hui, Wan Qixie, and Wang Jun. The woman in the iron cage is the wife of Huihuai, the long-tongued Wang family. The others are Zhang Dun, Cai Jing and his sons, Wang Fu, Zhu Yu, Geng Nanzhong, Ding Daquan, Han Yuzhou, Shi Miyuan, and Jia Sidao are all members of the same evil party and evil party. The king ordered him to execute the punishment, so that the king could watch him." That is to say, drive the juniper and wait until the wind and thunder Hell, tied to a copper pillar.One pawn buckled his ring with a whip, and the wind knives rushed around and stabbed his body. The cypress and other bodies were like the bottom of a sieve.After a long time, there was a sound of thunder, and his body was hit like powder, and his blood flowed to the ground.After a while, the evil wind swirled around, blowing his flesh and blood, and reunited into a human form.The official said to Di: "The one who shocks is Yin thunder; the one who blows is karma." He also ordered the soldiers to be driven to King Kong, train, Mingling and other prisons, especially juniper and others.When hungry, eat iron pills, and when thirsty, drink copper juice.The official said: "This Cao Fan went through various prisons and suffered all kinds of sufferings for three days. After three years, he became a cow, a sheep, a dog, and a hog. They are unclean, and at the end of their lives, they will inevitably suffer from the pain of cooking with knives. Today, these people have been animals for more than fifty times." Di asked, "When will their crimes be released?" The official replied: "Except for the repetition of chaos in the world, You have to remove your ears."

Then lead Di to a small gate in Xiyuan, inscribed "Prison of Rape Return".There are more than a hundred people who are shackled by the lotus, and they are like hedgehogs with their hands raised.Di asked: "What kind of people are these people?" The official replied: "They are all generals and ministers of the past. They are all in it. Every three days, they will be punished the same as Qin Hui. After three years, they will become animals, and they will all be like junipers." Return to a small gate in Nanyuan, titled "Prison for Unfaithful Ministers".There are hundreds of cows inside, all with iron ropes piercing their noses, tied to iron pillars, and surrounded by fire.Di asked: "Cows are animals. What is the crime?" The official waved his hand and said, "Don't say anything, please wait and see." That is to call the jailer and blow the fire with a huge fan.After a while, the flames raged across the sky, and the pain was unbearable, roaring and stumbling, flesh and blood scorched.After a long time, there was a big earthquake, and the skin suddenly split, and a person protruded from it.Looking at it, all of them have no beards, even eunuchs.The official Hu Yacha threw it into the wok soup and cooked it, but the skin and flesh melted and only the bones remained.After a short period of time, it was fertilized by cold water again, and the bones of the dead gathered together, and they still regained their human form.The official pointed out: "These are all eunuchs of past dynasties, Zhao Gao from Qin Dynasty, ten permanent attendants from Han Dynasty, Li Fuguo, Qiu Shiliang, Wang Shoucheng, Tian Lingzi from Tang Dynasty, and Tongguan from Song Dynasty. Jealousy harms Zhongliang and makes the sea chaotic. Now I have received this retribution, and I will endure endless calamities." Returning to the east wall, thousands of men and women, all naked and bare feet, were cooking and peeling hearts, or burning pounding and milling, and there were wailing voices. , Thoroughly heard for several miles.The official pointed out: "All of them were officials and officials in their lifetime. They were greedy for money, perverted the law, and harmed people meanly; they were also unfilial and unfriendly, disobedient to their teachers, and unkind, so they received this reward." Di was overjoyed when he saw it, and sighed: " Today I know that the world is selfless, ghosts and gods are clearly aware, and the injustice of my life has begun to come out." The official pointed to the north face and said, "I go to one prison, where monks and nuns cheat people's money, adultery and evildoers. Another prison, all adulterers and jealous women , rebellious women, ruthless women and so on." Di replied: "I already know about the retribution, so I don't need to go to see it." The official laughed and went out with Di hand in hand, and still entered the Senluo Hall.Di bows again, kowtows to thank, and presents four lines of poems.The poem said: Power and traitors are in power and do whatever they want, and the rewards are always worthwhile.Try to see the criminal law in Hell, you should know that today you regret it.Di said again: "The traitor is rewarded. The servant has witnessed it, and the letter is not false. Where are the other loyal ministers and righteous men? I hope to see you, so that I can be contemptuous. I am very happy." Pluto bowed his head and thought for a long time, but said : "All the princes are born in the human way. They are princes and lords, enjoying the prosperity of the world. They will return to their homes when they live a full life, so as to wait for the fate meeting, and then return to their lives. Since the son seeks to see him, I will guide him." So Deng Yu went forward and divided Those who pay followers, lead Di to follow.Walking for about five miles, I saw the Jade Palace in Qionglou, with green tiles interspersed across the horizon, and a red plaque with gold characters, inscription "The Mansion of the Lord of Heaven".Once inside, there are hundreds of fairies, all dressed in purple gauze clothes, hanging Danxia jade pei, holding colorful banners and crimson festivals, holding feathers and flower Jing.The clouds are colorful and the sky is flying; the dragons sing and the phoenixes blow, and the fairy music clangs;There are more than a hundred people sitting in the hall, wearing crowns reaching to the sky, wearing brocade clothes, walking on red shoes, jade Ke Qiongpei, shining brilliantly.There are more than five hundred jade girls in crimson silk, either holding fans of the five bright lights, or holding bowls of the eight treasures, serving around them.Seeing Pluto come, everyone downgrades to welcome him.After the ceremony, the host and guest sat down by dividing things.After the fairy boy offered tea, Pluto explained Hu Mudi's intention and ordered him to pay homage.All the princes answered politely and praised in unison: "Mr. can be said to be a 'benevolent man who can be good and evil'." But there was a special seat at the bottom, and Di was ordered to sit.Di Qianrang didn't dare to do it again and again.The king said: "Your gentlemen are gentlemen and able to hold correct opinions, so they are more polite, so why use bitter words." Di Nai thanked and sat down.Pluto cupped his hands and said: "On the seat are loyal ministers and righteous people of all dynasties. If you live in Yang, you will enjoy history, and if you live in Yin, you will enjoy the joy of heaven. Whenever Ming emperors rule the world, they will be born as princes and generals, supporting the country and contributing to the community. Today's luck will turn around, but in a few decades, the real person will come out to set things right. All the princes will be born one after another, and they will be famous ministers who have made great achievements." Di impromptuly wrote four lines of poems, which said: "When I read the leftovers from under the window Make up, every hate is incomplete.Witnessing the nobleness of the underworld, the emperor lives up to his reputation.

All the princes raised their hands in thanks.Pluto said: "My son sees the retribution of good and evil, and he is not happy to distinguish between loyal and sycophant. If you pretend to be Yan Luo, I am afraid that you will not be able to add more ears." Di left the table and bowed down to apologize.All the princes said in unison: "In this life, I love good and hate evil. It is out of my nature. I don't know how to chant it without seeing it. It's not strange." Pluto laughed and said: "What you said is true."

Di asked again: "My servant still has doubts, so I ask the god to reveal it. I have studied hard since I was a child, and there is no major fault. Why is there no distinction in my life? Is it because I have sinful karma in my previous life?" Pluto said: " Today, in the world of Hu and Yuan, the heaven and the earth are changing. The son is upright and upright, and he has no destiny to be a barbarian. He should not be his courtier. A certain man is about to be appointed, and he thinks that his son is good, good and evil, and he is worthy of this position. A certain should know the court of heaven, Recommend the son to be his own generation. The son will return to Yangshi for a while to enjoy the rest of his life. After more than ten years, I will welcome you." After speaking, he ordered the two officials in Zhu Yi to send Di back home.Di Dayue, thank you again, and say goodbye to all the princes.After traveling for about ten miles, I saw that the sky was getting brighter. Zhu Yili pointed to Di and said, "The place where the sun rises is the Jun's house." allow.Di tried to hold him back again and again, but he didn't realize that he missed it. The second official had disappeared.Di stretched his arms and went away, the lamp was still on, and the sun had already shone on the window paper.

Since then, Di has been determined to make progress, cultivate himself and enjoy the Tao.Another 23 years, birthday 66, in the afternoon of one day, I suddenly saw the underworld official holding an ultimatum to welcome Di to his post, with chariots and horses following him like a king.It was night, and Di Sui died.In another ten years, Yuanzuo then fell, and the world still belonged to China, and the princes of Tianjue Mansion were known to be born as ministers.Later generations have a poem that says: Wang Fazhaozhao still has loopholes, and Ming Si Yinyin is even more selfless.It is not necessary to see the scenery of Fengdu in person, but please recite Humu's poems from time to time.
