Although it was about to get cold, there was nothing to worry about anyway, and Chen Xiang felt inexplicably relaxed.
He looked up at the black and white figures that were jumping away and away, and asked curiously: "Brother and eldest sister, why are you two walking like this, isn't it awkward? And what is that big white butterfly for?"
Hearing this, Black and White Wuchang stopped in unison. Hei Wuchang waved his hand, and the white paper butterfly turned into a wisp of smoke and put it into his sleeve.
Afterwards, the two of them looked around and saw that it was already dark and there were few people around, so they took Agarwood to the roadside and started their "Late Night Complaint Conference".
"Hey, boy, you have no idea how difficult our errands are now!" Hei Wuchang sighed, his tone full of helplessness, "Since the God of Justice took office, there have been more and more rules every day, which is so strict that it makes people sad.
Can't breathe."
Bai Wuchang took over the conversation and said with a wry smile: "Yes, not only do you have to collect soul aura to clock in and go to and from get off work every day, it is extremely troublesome, and the benefits of business trips are also greatly reduced.
I used to be able to get some profit and water, but now? Huh, don’t even think about getting more!"
"What's even more outrageous is that some of the weird rules are so mind-boggling!" Hei Wuchang became more and more excited as he spoke. "You have to wear this lifeless uniform when you go out, and you have to jump up and down when you bring people to the underworld. It's said to be to show off the underworld.
Majesty, I think they are treating us like monkeys!
Also, when you are on a business trip, you have to apply for remote attendance check-in, which is like going to jail. The white paper butterfly is said to be used to record images to prevent us from messing around, but in fact it is a tool to monitor us, with no privacy at all!"
Bai Wuchang nodded in agreement, with a trace of bitterness flashing in his eyes: "I think back then, there were some benefits during the holidays, and there were various subsidies and hidden benefits for business trips. What about now? Hey, talking too much makes me cry!"
The two of them talked to each other, as if they had found someone to talk to, and poured out all the dissatisfaction and grievances in their hearts.
Chen Xiang was dumbfounded as he listened. He had never thought that even a being like Black and White would have so many worries and complaints.
Moreover, listening to Black and White's repeated complaints, Chen Xiang not only did not feel bored, but instead had a cunning light in his eyes, and an idea quietly took shape in his heart.
As the saying goes, money can make the world go round!
He coughed lightly and said with an air of mystery: "Hey, brother and sister Impermanence, I have a heartfelt request. My family has quite a lot of assets, with vast fields, and there are many rare treasures hidden in my father's treasure house.
, some of them will glow on their own at night, and even I can’t recognize them.”
Speaking of this, Chen Xiang paused deliberately, observing Black and White's reaction. Seeing their curious expressions, he struck an invitation while the iron was hot: "You two are well-informed, why don't you follow me back home and appreciate those treasures together?"
?This can be regarded as my small respect to you two."
Black and White looked at each other, obviously a little surprised by Chen Xiang's proposal.
After a moment of silence, Hei Wuchang slowly spoke: "Boy, if you want to return to Yang, it's impossible. Now that the audits are strict, the most we can do is let you go back to visit relatives.
Of course, if you want to run away and become a lonely ghost, then it depends on your sincerity.
And it’s very rare to be a lonely ghost nowadays. There are monks everywhere accumulating merit. If you don’t find a netherworld, you won’t be able to survive at all.”
Just when Chenxiang was about to fight again, her shoulders suddenly sank, and a familiar little yellow cat jumped up: "Meow~"
[Why are you so cold? Is it okay for me to eat? 】
Chen Xiang's heart felt warm, and then a hint of sadness emerged: "Master Le, you are so kind, you are willing to accompany me even to the underworld."
When the black and white eyes fell on the little yellow cat on Chenxiang's shoulder, their pupils suddenly dilated, their eyes full of disbelief and horror.
This is not an ordinary cat. It is a famous "romantic cat" in the underworld. It often travels through the underworld, teasing those shy little female ghosts with its unique charm. It is also the favorite of the God of Justice!
"This... this cat!" Hei Wuchang's voice was trembling. He looked at Chenxiang in disbelief, and an ominous premonition surged in his heart.
Bai Wuchang quickly took out the book of impermanence that recorded the souls of the world from his arms, flipping through it quickly with his fingers, each page carrying the fate of countless lives.
"Child, what's your name?" Bai Wuchang's voice was extremely serious, his eyes fixed on Chenxiang, trying to find any clues from his name.
"Chen Chenxiang." Chenxiang didn't know why, but still answered truthfully.
The moment he heard the name, Black and White's face instantly turned pale, as if he had been struck by lightning. They looked at each other, with only one thought echoing crazily in their hearts - the wrong person was arrested!
Moreover, we happened to catch a person with such a great background!
grass!
"Damn it!" Hei Wuchang couldn't help but cursed, feeling regretful in his heart.
They know very well that once this matter is known to the God of Justice, the consequences will be disastrous, ranging from being punished to being unable to keep their job and losing their jobs!
Although Black and White always like to complain about the reduction of welfare benefits, and their words are full of dissatisfaction with the status quo, deep down, they all know that today is actually more fair and transparent than in the past.
Now every guile has the opportunity to gradually climb up along the clear promotion path through unremitting efforts, and even dream of being promoted to a judge one day.
The key point is that although the Three Realms have become peaceful now, there is another fierce competition hidden behind this peace. The opportunity for immortality is becoming increasingly scarce, causing countless practitioners to flock to it and join the torrent of obtaining the heavenly establishment.
among.
They practice hard and accumulate merit at all costs, just to occupy a place on the throne of heaven.
This world is really like "a carrot and a pit", and every position is particularly precious. For Black and White Wuchang, once he loses this job, it means that he has completely lost the opportunity to return to the heavenly system and live forever.
What a pity and despair it would be.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Why are you memorizing it like this today?
After a moment of silence, Bai Wuchang exchanged subtle glances. Finally, Bai Wuchang stepped forward and said with her signature gentle smile to Chen Xiang, who was leaning against the little yellow cat with red eyes: "Hey, hey, young master.
, please stop crying, in fact, what we said just now were just to tease you."
When Chen Xiang heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then a glimmer of disbelief flashed in his eyes. He quickly wiped away the tears on his face with the back of his hand, and said with a bit of trembling joy in his voice: "Really? Then I...
Do I not have to die?"
Bai Wu saw the situation and quickly nodded to confirm, with some relief in his eyes: "Yes, yes, you misunderstood, we will send you back right now."
When Chen Xiang heard this, he was overjoyed and almost jumped with joy. He danced to express his joy, as if the whole world had become brighter.
However, this joy was mixed with a trace of unnoticeable regret. He glanced at the little yellow cat that had jumped leisurely on top of Bai Wuchang's head, curled up into a ball and started to take a nap, and murmured to himself: "Happy
Grandpa, it seems that you are really dead, but don't worry, I will definitely burn more paper money for you during the holidays.
Don’t you like little girls? I’ll burn a few more paper ones for you, so that you won’t be alone in the underworld.”
Little yellow cat: "???"
Bai Wuchang quickly waved his hand and explained with a smile: "Oh, young master, I was just teasing you, no one really has to go down."
When Chen Xiang heard this, his eyes rolled, and he thought to himself: This Black and White Impermanence is usually selfless, how could he be so polite to me today? Could it be that... the wrong person was arrested, and he was afraid that I would complain to the superiors after I went down.
?
Thinking of this, a sly smile appeared on Chen Xiang's lips.
He pretended to be deep in thought, and after a moment, he asked tentatively: "Sister Bai, since we have such a strong relationship now, can you do me a small favor?"
When Bai Wuchang heard this, his eyes immediately lit up, and he quickly responded: "Okay, okay, young master, just tell me, as long as I can do it, I will do my best."
Chen Xiang had some concerns in her mind and said slowly: "Actually, I have always wanted to know the exact time of my mother's death. I want to see how it is recorded in the book of life and death. I wonder if you two can help me with this?"
Hearing this, Black and White Wuchang's expressions changed slightly, and they looked at each other. Obviously, this request was somewhat beyond their expectations. But then they thought about it, that little yellow cat was the darling of the God of Justice. In order to keep their jobs, they had to compromise.
.
So, Hei Wuchang coughed lightly, nodded reluctantly and said: "Although it is a bit against the rules, but...since the young master has spoken, let's make an exception.
However, you have to promise that after reading it, this matter will be dropped and will not be spread outside."
When Chen Xiang heard this, he was immediately excited. He nodded repeatedly and said, "That's natural. Sister, go out and ask around. In Chenjiacun, Le Ye and I are notoriously tight-lipped!"
Tight-lipped? Bai Wuchang nodded with satisfaction.
That's good!
The two ghosts accompanied each other leisurely. After one person and one cat rested for a while, Bai Wuchang slowly took out another piece of emerald green clothing from his vast sleeves and draped it on Agarwood's shoulders.
"Agarwood, the Yin energy is lingering in the underworld. As a person in the Yang world, the Yang energy is too strong, so you must wear the clothes of the Yin soul to hide your whereabouts and avoid detection.
Nowadays, the rules of the underworld are very strict. Even those who are highly advanced practitioners in the human world must report to the underworld at all levels and undergo strict review. Otherwise, if they are violated, we will not be able to withstand the thunderous wrath of the judicial god."
There was a certain seriousness in Bai Wuchang's words. Hearing this, Chen Xiang nodded quickly in agreement, with uncontrollable curiosity shining in his eyes.
Hell! He may be about to become the first living person to step into this mysterious realm in the history of Chenjiacun. This unique experience will definitely become a capital to show off to his friends in the future, especially when Xiaohua hears about it
, I must admire and envy her.
Just thinking about it makes me a little excited.
He secretly thought about it, and must carefully observe every plant, every tree, every scene in this underworld, and remember what he saw and heard in his heart.
"Buzz——"
A long and low tremor seemed to sound leisurely from the abyss of ancient times. As Agarwood stepped into it, the curtain of the unknown realm slowly opened.
The air around him condensed instantly, becoming heavy and cold, oppressing every inch of his skin like substance. Time seemed to have lost its flow at this moment, and everything around him was shrouded in a strange silence.
Under his feet, there is no longer an ordinary road of human fireworks. Instead, there is an ancient path of Huangquan carefully woven by the spirit of the netherworld. It is winding and winding, like an endless link, leading Agarwood to the profound and unpredictable other shore.
Move forward slowly.
This path exudes a faint light, and every step is on the edge of nothingness and existence, which is heart-stopping.
On both sides of the ancient road, strange vegetation from the Netherworld competes to grow, showing the weirdness of life in an unimaginable manner.
Some flowers are delicate and delicate, as red as freshly spilled blood, seductive and dangerous; others are as deep as night, as pure black as if they can swallow up all light.
The light they emit is both tempting and frightening, like the bait of the abyss, leading people to sink step by step.
These plants seem to have their own souls, they sway gently in the night wind, and every leaf and petal seems to tell an unknown story.
That low and long sigh is like the whispers of countless dead souls, intertwined into a poignant and desperate requiem, making people's hearts sink to the freezing point involuntarily.
As Agarwood deepens, this netherworld gradually reveals its more real and terrifying appearance.
All kinds of ghostly creatures began to loom in his sight. They might be dressed in black robes and look like ghosts, wandering silently in dark corners like ghosts in the night; or they might have translucent bodies,
His face was blurry and strange, and his eyes were shining with a green light.
It was a gaze from another world, which made people shudder.
In this forgotten realm, every breath seems extremely heavy, and every heartbeat is accompanied by unknown fear.
Seeing Chen Xiang's eyes full of curiosity and fear, Bai Wuchang introduced him earnestly: "Chen Xiang, if you are not familiar with the road alone, don't come here. Some of these ghosts are not as powerful as us."
When Chen Xiang heard this, she couldn't help hugging the little yellow cat in her arms tightly and nodded quickly.
Soon after, they came to a breathtaking giant bridge. This bridge spans the vast Wangchuan River. Its scale and momentum are so large that it is difficult to see its full picture at a glance. It seems to connect the
The only passage between the worlds of life and death.
The Forgotten River is turbulent, carrying a biting chill, and the shrill wails coming from the river from time to time are like the wails of thousands of evil souls imprisoned for eternity.
At the entrance of the bridge, there stands a simple stone tablet with strange words engraved on it. The strokes are twisted and mysterious, and it seems to be breathtaking after looking at it for a long time.
However, although these words may seem complicated and difficult to understand, they actually contain a straightforward and profound meaning - "Naihe Bridge".
On the bridge, there are densely packed souls waiting for reincarnation. They either have calm faces and stare silently at the unknown journey ahead; or they burst into tears and sob softly, showing their deep attachment and reluctance to the past in this world.
Under the guidance of Black and White, Agarwood and the little yellow cat continued to move forward, while the dead souls on the bridge retreated one after another, casting awe in their eyes, fearing that they would become the next ones to be judged and sent to the eighteenth level of hell.
Along the way, time seemed to have lost its meaning. Only the steps under their feet and the exploration of the unknown in their hearts became their only guide.
After successfully passing the heart-stopping Naihe Bridge, Agarwood entered the unpredictable "Netherworld Forest".
This is a world of shadows woven by huge and twisted trees, with lush branches and leaves intertwining with each other, like the most complex maze in nature, completely swallowing up the last trace of light in the sky.
In the depths of this dead and threatening forest, the roars and roars of the ghost beasts come and go. They either jump out ferociously, trying to tear apart any creature that steps into their territory; or they hide in the shadows, invincible
Waiting patiently for the next victim to arrive.
After an arduous journey, Agarwood finally passed through this dangerous forest and arrived at the core area of the underworld. Passing through the dark and winding streets, a majestic and magnificent building suddenly came into view - the Palace of Hell.
This palace is majestic and majestic. On the towering city walls, ancient runes and totems are densely engraved. They shine with a faint blue light, seeming to tell the story of the Lord of the Netherworld's supreme power and endless years.
Standing in front of the Hall of the King of Hell, Bai Wuchang looked extremely cautious. He gently pulled Chenxiang aside and whispered solemnly: "Now is the half-day rest period in the underworld every seven days. The judges and others have gone out to have fun. We will take them with us."
Just go in, take a look and leave, but don't run around and yell."
Hearing this, Chen Xiang couldn't help but feel a little doubt in her heart: "Didn't I hear you tell me before that heaven stipulates that you have one day off every seven days?"
Bai Wuchang smiled bitterly, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes: "It's not like those people above asked us to sign a struggle agreement in order to please the God of Justice and voluntarily work overtime for half a day to express our loyalty and respect to the Heavenly Court!"
