Five hundred and seventieth chapters Ten Temple Yama
[Thank you to the great gods of rewards: Liu Xiong 10,000; Judge God Gale 10,000]
When they walked out of the exit, they saw a dark, chaotic world with no sky or sun appearing in front of them.
Although they were stepping on real ground, they could not see the sky, the sun, the moon, the stars, or even the appearance of the earth.
There is no wind here, there are no mountains and rivers, and there is nothing that should exist in the material world. Everything is dark. Except for the colorful light bands that are diffused everywhere, you can't see anything. It's like walking in the dark air.
Same.
In addition to the colorful light bands, the darkness is also filled with the kind of cyan smoke. This kind of smoke is too familiar in the underworld. It is everywhere in the dark space, with little spiritual lights shining in the middle, and full of thick smoke.
The strong smell of sulfur pierces people's nostrils.
Chen Zhi and others continued to walk forward in this space. Because this section of the journey could not be seen on the map, they had no direction. However, according to the description in human legends, the front of the Ecstasy Hall was Fengdu Nei
The first gate of the city is the palace of the ten palaces of Yama.
In folk and mythological legends, there are various descriptions of the scenes in the underworld. Many legends are unfounded and full of superstition, and some are even ridiculous.
But in most legends, the ten palaces of Yama in Fengdu City are described, which are called the Ten Halls of Yama.
Legend has it that when a person reports to the underworld after death, after a long journey on the Huangquan Road, and finally entering Fengdu, he has to go through the trial of the ten palaces of hell before he can decide his final destination. Each of these ten palaces of hell has its own palace.
The areas are divided into different areas, and based on the behavior and conduct during life, one enters different Halls of Hell to accept the judgment of different gods.
There are many legends about the ten palaces of Yama. The most widely circulated theory among the people is that the ten palaces of Yama are: King Guang of Qin, King Chujiang, Emperor Song, King Wugan, King Yama, King Biancheng, King Taishan, and City.
King, King of Equality, King of Wheels. These ten kings respectively live in the ten halls of hell and are in charge of the judgment in each hall.
Those who did good deeds during their lifetimes can go to heaven and enjoy blessings, while those who did evil deeds during their lifetimes will go to hell and suffer. However, many scholars believe that the ten palaces of Yama were developed after Buddhism was introduced to China. Before that, there was only the legend of Emperor Fengdu, the king of Hades, in China.
The Talk of Yama in the Ten Palaces.
But it can be seen from many ancient books that in fact, a long time ago, in many ancient folk myths, there were descriptions of the ten judgment halls, but the details are very vague.
At this time, Chen Zhi couldn't help but think of a description in those ancient books about entering Fengdu City.
"After entering Fengdu Ghost City, everything is nothing. Looking up, you can't see the stars, sun and moon. Looking down, you can't see the dust of the land. After coming out of the city gate, there are 10 city gates lined up side by side.
From the palace to the Tenth Hall of Hell, there are Yin soldiers guarding the entrances of each hall.
The Yin soldiers and ghost missions will carefully check the approval tickets in the soul's hand and verify the identity. Some of them check the soul's height and appearance, and some record the soul's household registration and lifetime actions. Every link is standardized and orderly, and each ghost
The officers are all enforcing the law and do not dare to show favoritism. After entering the Hall of the King of Hell, you must not say a single lie, otherwise you will not be able to escape the torture. The trial in the hall is fair and strict, and there is no room for any personal feelings. All evil and cunning people will not be able to escape.
The judgment in the palace is indeed ruthless.
The ghosts who arrive here are all respectful and queue up to wait for the judgment of the king of hell in each hall. They dare not lie or make arrogant remarks. However, no matter which hell hall you enter from, the hall is connected to the inside of the eighteenth level of hell. Those who committed evil during their lifetimes
No matter how much people cry and beg for mercy, they will not be able to escape the final punishment and be thrown into the eighteenth level of hell to suffer."
This is an anonymous biography, describing the real scene in Fengdu City, but legends are legends after all, and who knows how many of them are consistent with the truth.
Chen Zhi and others have been walking forward in one direction. Because the world here is very chaotic and the sense of time and space is very poor, their direction is very confused. However, after they walked in confusion for a while, they found themselves in the darkness ahead.
See a silvery bright spot, like a star in the dark night.
They continued to move towards the flashing silver light, and found that the bright spot was actually a small silver door suspended in the darkness. The small door was swaying as if it would fall down at any time.
They quickly walked over. It was a small door about one person wide, just like an ordinary doorway. The door was silver and shone with dazzling light, so it looked like a star from a distance.
Fat Wei first tried it with a knife, and found that the silver door was a fake image, and there was a space inside that could be entered at a touch. Fat Wei first stretched out an arm to explore, and after feeling that there was no danger, he opened the door again.
He leaned in with the upper half of his body, and finally grabbed the door with his arms, jumped up and jumped in.
After a while, I heard Fat Wei's arm stretched out, making a gesture for everyone to enter.
Everyone lined up, Ghost Sword jumped in immediately, and then everyone jumped into the small door one after another.
When Chen Zhi jumped in, he found that this was the same chaotic space as before, and the stars in the sky and earth were still invisible. But the difference was that it was very bright here, so bright that it pierced the eyes. When they looked up, they saw that there were floating stars in the sky.
There are two lighting objects like big light bulbs, one of which is very bright and the other is dimmer.
At the very front of this space, there is a doorway facing them. This doorway is not far from them. The door is still suspended in the air, but the inside of the doorway is chaotic and turbid. It seems that a hurricane is roaring, and the roaring sound is endless, as if
It was like a volcano erupting, which was in sharp contrast to the quiet space here.
As everyone listened to the deafening roar in the space opposite, they couldn't help but feel a little shaken in their hearts. A dangerous intuition slowly arose from the most primitive subconscious.
Fat Wei still put the knife in first, tested the situation inside, then stretched out an arm, frowned, and finally stuck his head in.
After a while, Fat Wei looked back, his face was covered with sand and dust. He nodded to Chen Zhi, "The sand inside is very strong and it's a bit chaotic, but you can go in...".
"Okay!" Chen Zhi nodded to Fat Wei, then looked back at everyone, smiled lightly and said,
"Ahead is the legendary eighteenth level of hell..., let's go! Let's go there and take a look...".
After Chen Zhi finished speaking, he grabbed the door with both hands, turned it up, and jumped in first.
