In almost an hour, all 121 souls were registered. Xiaoqi took back the wooden box, thanked the City God, and then left the main hall of the City God with Xiaoba.
Shi Ying was curious about where those souls would go next, so she asked after leaving the main hall: "Are these more than a hundred people sent to the same place?" She did not dare to ask too specifically, as if she was speculating.
Exact names such as Ghost Gate, Hell Palace, etc. would be very embarrassing if they were not given out.
Xiao Qi signaled Shi Ying and the two to wait at the door while he went to call the team members to assemble. Xiao Ba, no, Hei Wuchang, Fan Wujiu and Shi Ying stood under the tree at the entrance of the Chenghuang Temple where people were coming and going. He looked at the people coming and going.
The crowd answered Shi Ying:
"Generally speaking, the souls of newly deceased people will be randomly assigned to the residential area after death after taking the road guide. However, these souls are special. There are no complete corpses and the place is remote. If they cannot receive sacrifices in a short time, they will not be able to deliver them.
They have to raise the rent, so they are first arranged in a special public rental community. After they receive condolences from their family members or earn enough points by working on their own, they can apply to move out."
Shi Ying: 0.0 Can this still happen?
Wu Jiu lowered his head to check the wooden sign and continued: "There is no one in this group of people with infinite merit or evil. That's basically it. If there is a special group, we will treat it specially. You will know this when you meet them."
Shi Ying became curious and asked: "Does boundless merit refer to the kind of people who do good deeds throughout their lives, or who eat fasting, chant Buddha's name, and never kill any living being?"
Wujiu did not feel bored by such a novice question, but explained very patiently: "There are many measures, and what you mentioned is only part of it, and it is relatively one-sided. Merit is good deeds, and virtue is good heart. Both are indispensable. Someone
Doing good deeds is for utility, and some people do evil deeds with good intentions. Merits are materialistic and idealistic, but we don’t need to judge this kind of thing. If we meet a special group, we will remind you on the magic weapon.
When the time comes, hand them over to the City God, who will take them to the Tenth Hall of Hell to comment on right and wrong."
Shi Ying wanted to ask what the Tenth Palace Hell King did, but Xiao Qi came back with six team members. He greeted the two of them and said to Wu Jiu: "Let's go, after get off work, let's go have a barbecue." Then he turned to Shi Ying and said, "Shi Ying, let's come together. You just agreed. I heard you and Xiao Ba talking about the good people. We happen to have a mission tomorrow. Let's chat while we eat?"
Shi Ying was a little confused. They were obviously having a team-building and group gathering. Would it be bad for her to go? But she was also unfamiliar with the place and didn't know where to go. She asked, "Where are you going after eating?"
"
Xiao Qi smiled: "After dinner, go home and rest. Do you have any other plans?"
Shi Ying shook her head: "No, let's go."
Everyone was led by Xiao Qi to a food street. Xiao Qi pointed to the middle of the food street from a distance and said, "That's the one, Lao Fang's BBQ. It tastes very good. Last time someone died fighting for a seat."
I'll collect it."
Shi Ying: ...No one can tell whether a barbecue is good or not by this.
He led everyone to the end of the street and said, "Everyone, please show yourself. There is no way to eat this way." Everyone showed up one after another, but there was no difference in Shi Ying's eyes. She didn't know what they had done, so they all looked at it.
He looked at her, and it seemed that she was the only one who didn't show up.
She looked at everyone's eyes, and a thin layer of sweat formed behind her. She kept thinking "show up, show up" in her heart. Suddenly she felt heavy. When she looked at the others, they all gave her a friendly smile. She should
It’s done.
Shi Ying remembered the feeling just now and prepared to practice again when no one was around. When the plane crashed, her floating was completely subconscious. She had no idea what happened. She also figured out walking in the air by herself. Maybe there was something else.
Other skills are still waiting for her to be discovered.
Lao Fang's Barbecue has just opened for business. The waiters have just set out the outdoor tables, chairs and benches and welcomed the first batch of customers today. A waiter came up and said that the charcoal fire had just been lit on the barbecue grill, and it would take about half an hour to order.
For skewers, you can serve some cold dishes first and ask them if they can wait.
They had indeed arrived early, and it was only around four o'clock in the afternoon. Xiao Qi waved his hand: "No rush, just order some cold dishes and drinks first, and we'll order the barbecue later."
Everyone found a big table to sit around, and Xiao Qi began to chat with Shi Ying about what happened on the plane today: "Sister, although it is your first time on the field, you did a good job, and the time and location were very good."
Shi Ying originally didn't want to recall the disaster scene that he had only seen in his life, but now that he heard him talking about it, he suppressed the discomfort in his heart and asked: "Why do you want to get stuck in that time period and place? Isn't there a saying that the King of Hell wants you to die in the middle of the night?
Won't you keep people until the fifth watch? I thought this was all destined and no intervention was needed." She tried to use a gentler tone, but when the words came out, they were inevitably a bit stiff.
Xiaoqi didn't care at all and said, "You're right. Aren't the three and five o'clock hours also a time period? We established this group out of consideration for the harmony between the yin and yang worlds."
After he finished speaking, he winked at Wu Jiu and signaled him to continue. Wu Jiu took over the conversation naturally: "Originally, these people in the Book of Life and Death system all died between 1:30 and 2 o'clock. The cause of death was
It was a plane crash. The intervention we made was mainly at the location where they died."
When he saw Shi Ying still frowning with a question on his face, he cut it open and said, "If no intervention is taken, they may fall into farmland, villages, or even the sea. The first two will bring direct consequences to the world of the sun."
If it falls into the sea, it will not only increase the difficulty of rescue in the underworld, but also pose a challenge to our workload."
"The sea over there will accidentally float the corpses beyond the national boundary, and it will be difficult for them to return to their souls."
"You chose the valley as the landing point. Although it is not easy to rescue, at least it will not cause other losses. It is a better choice for the world of the world and for us. Their first seven souls also have a place to return to. If there are relatives there,
Memorials are made to them there, and they can even go home and visit."
Shi Ying somewhat understood that within the time period and place of death stipulated in the Book of Life and Death, they could flexibly choose to intervene and make a choice that was beneficial to both Yin and Yang while ensuring compliance with the death laws of the Book of Life and Death.
In other words, she is not sending others to die, but others are already going to die. She is just making their death more painless, more comfortable, and less likely to affect others?
I feel like a god of death, the kind that follows the rules.
