The Underworld Road is like a substance. The black Yin Qi turns around and turns into a rock, which is assembled piece by piece. On both sides of the Underworld Bridge, there are protruding stone pillars with lifelike ghost head patterns engraved on the pillars.
"The yin and yang are in order, the ghost soul returns quickly, does not fall into hell, and enjoys reincarnation peacefully."
Zhong Kui stood on the coffin, holding his hands behind his back and shouting loudly.
As his shouts fell, the ghosts lined up one after another, stepped onto the Bridge of Hell one after another, and entered the endless void.
"Sir, you are really amazing. Even the transformed ghost road is more beautiful than mine."
Gui Cha stood next to Zhong Kui and said with envy on his face.
"Haha, if you catch a hundred thousand ghosts and bring them back, you will be promoted. At that time, you can also do the same. What is there to envy?"
Zhong Kui chuckled, stroking the beard on his chin, then looked in the direction of Xiao Yu and others and continued, "Were you invited here by them?"
"Well, that is Xiao Yu. I told you before that he is a disciple of Maoshan."
Yin Cha did not deny it and nodded immediately.
"Xiao Yu, disciple of Maoshan?"
"I heard before that Wang Ziwen, the messenger of Yin and Yang, went to Xiao Yu and asked him to help me re-canonize the land of Yangshi Mountain God. I don't know what's going on now."
"Oh, is there such a thing?"
After hearing this, Gui Cha couldn't help but be surprised. He obviously didn't believe that such a thing could happen to Xiao Yu.
"Of course, there was no suitable candidate at the beginning, because the Yinmen and our underworld were not very clean. Although the Yinmen were close to us, they were too obsessed with fame and fortune, so we found Xiao Yu."
Zhong Kui smiled and explained with a look of disbelief.
"Your Majesty, what you said is right. This Maoshan disciple is also very smart. When I met him in their village when he was ten years old, he would do business with me. We have had many contacts over the years. I feel
This young man is a great talent."
"Besides, he is a very nice person and not stingy. You know, he has the Chaos Flower given to him by Po Meng. Even you, an adult, don't have this thing. He is really a lucky child."
Gui Cha explained with envy on his face that he and Xiao Yu have known each other for more than ten years, and he has watched Xiao Yu grow up. Now of course he will speak for Xiao Yu to attract Zhong Kui's attention.
Hearing the words "Chaos Flower", Zhong Kui also showed an expression of disbelief.
"Mother Meng has never been out of the underworld, so how could she know Xiao Yu?"
"I don't know. Grandpa Xiao Yu probably went to the underworld to ask for it, or maybe by chance, his grandfather got it. Who knows what their relationship is. Anyway, he has the Chaos Flower, so he is definitely not an ordinary person."
"Meng Po is extremely stingy, and the Chaos Flower grows on Meng Po Cliff. It is also called Meng Po Flower. It only blooms once every two thousand years. It is transformed by the power of the endless ghosts of the underworld. Let alone a mortal, even if the ghost is punished, it is difficult to ask for it.
How could it appear in a Taoist? It’s really strange.”
Zhong Kui and the judge stood in the distance, looking at Xiao Yu from a distance, while Xiao Yu also stood on the stage and bowed his hand to Zhong Kui.
As a ghost-catching spirit with folk beliefs, Xiao Yu also respected him very much, and he helped him resolve this crisis, so he was considered his savior.
Zhong Kui stood far away and gave Xiao Yu his hand. He was acquainted, but he did not go directly.
"Meng Po has wonderful calculations and insight into the secrets of heaven. We don't know her intentions. Let's wait and see later."
"Don't spread the news about Po Meng's flowers in advance. It won't be good for Xiao Yu! Maoshan has had a good relationship with my Yinsi since ancient times. If this guy can open the gate of the mountain, it will be good for you and me. You can also ask for a drink when you go there.
drink".
Zhong Kui stroked his beard, looked at Xiao Yu from a distance for a while, and then whispered.
"There is wine now. This guy is ready. He just asked me to invite you over."
Gui Cha took the opportunity and began to help Xiao Yu win over Zhong Kui.
Zhong Kui has a forthright temperament and never bullies the weak, so he met Gui Cha. Otherwise, how could he know Zhong Kui as a Gui Cha!
"This guy knows how to do things. Let's go and have a drink."
When he heard that there were drinks, Zhong Kui was immediately overjoyed, grabbed Gui Cha's arm, and flew in the direction of Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu stood on the stage and saw Zhong Kui flying over. He was immediately overjoyed and started to raise his hands from afar and said, "Xiao Yu, a disciple of Maoshan, has met the Celestial Master Zhong Kui."
"Haha, Maoshan boy, I heard you have wine here?"
"Yes, yes, it has been prepared for a long time. Heavenly Master invites you."
Xiao Yu took a step back, letting Zhong Kui go in front, while he himself followed behind.
This is not flattery, this is a kind of respect, because Zhong Kui has deep belief among the people, and you can see his paintings and sculptures everywhere.
Although Xiao Yu is a Taoist, he respects this ghost-catching master from the bottom of his heart, because Zhong Kui was also a human when he was alive. He was born in Zhongnan Town, Zhouzhi County, Shaanxi Province. When he was alive, he was talented and full of knowledge.
Zhong Kui was a Jinshi in Zhongnan Mountain. During the imperial examination, the emperor thought Zhong Kui was ugly and insulting to his knowledge, so he refused to recruit Zhong Kui. Zhong Kui was unwilling to do so and hit himself on the palace stage. After his death, he began to engage in catching ghosts.
Zhong Kui is spread among the people because of one person, that is Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty.
During one of his trips, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty fell seriously ill and the doctors could not treat him. He was dying. In his dream, he saw a kid in red clothes stealing his things.
The emperor was angry and was about to scold the little ghost, but at this moment, a big ghost with a beard and a broken hat ran in, grabbed the little ghost in his hand, and swallowed it directly. Xuanzong asked the big ghost
His name was Zhong Kui.
After Xuanzong woke up, he recovered from his illness, so he found a painter and painted a portrait of Zhong Kui according to the appearance in his dream.
At that time, Xuanzong was very keen on Taoism. With his encouragement, Zhong Kui was promoted to the people and became a master of catching ghosts.
Moreover, Zhong Kui is an all-responding god in the Taoist sect, who responds to all requests. He is deeply loved by the people and highly respected by the Taoist sect.
Behind the stage, two tables are already filled with various dishes, including roasted suckling pig, chicken, duck, and fish. They look very sumptuous. There are a total of thirty-two dishes with both meat and vegetables. This is already the best ability of the cook.
Something that can be made.
Seeing so many dishes, Zhong Kui couldn't help but glance at Xiao Yu and said, "Xiao Yu, this is too wasteful. We ghosts only smell the smell. As long as you have wine, just give a plate of peanuts. Let others do the rest."
Go eat”.
Zhong Kui was not polite and found a seat in the corner to sit. Then he picked up the gourd on his waist and started drinking.
However, the wine the other party drank was not real wine, but wine of the dead that contained the essence of wine.
"Master, this is specially prepared for you. It's very hard for you to catch ghosts and subjugate demons in this world. And today, to get rid of a big disaster here, this little food and wine is a trivial matter."
Xiao Yu was thinking about laughing next to him.
In fact, there does seem to be a lot of food now, but there is nothing we can do about it!
Because Xiao Yu was originally going to entertain the Night Travel God, and the Night Travel God, with a dozen children, would not be enough to fill the gap between his teeth, so he prepared so many.
I'm talking about, who is Ye Youshen? He is one of the top ten shady men. Isn't that too bad?
It's like you go to a high-ranking official to do something and then invite him to eat steamed dumplings. This doesn't make sense.
