"The City Emperor is here, come and see him quickly!" Wang Zhe shouted loudly, and the entire City Emperor Temple shook twice.
Buzz, the statue of the city emperor shone with red light, and the next moment, a middle-aged man with a majestic face appeared in front of Wang Zhe.
Look at that outfit and the statue of the city emperor.
"Who are you, and why do you want to see the emperor of this city?" The city emperor said in a deep voice.
"City Emperor, did a Yin Si ghost general ride into your City Emperor's temple just now?"
"But there is such a thing." The city emperor nodded.
"Do you know who the ghost is and where he came from?"
"This is a matter in the underworld. You are a monk in the underworld and have no control over the underworld."
After hearing this, Wang Zhe smiled and took out the token, shining with a dull aura.
"Do you recognize this?"
"Inspection of the Yin Division! I have seen you, sir!" Upon seeing this, the city emperor's face changed drastically, and he immediately bowed to Wang Zhe.
"Is that ghost general here?"
"He is in the lower official's study."
"Why are the Yinsi Ghost Generals here?"
"Returning to your lord, he said that he came to the Yang Realm under the orders of the Yin Division below. He also has the Yin Division's edict in his hand, so the city emperors in various places must facilitate it." The city emperor said truthfully.
"Who issued the edict from the Yin Division?" Wang Zhe was slightly startled after hearing this.
Although he got the one without a token and became an "Inspector of the Underworld" with an extraordinary status, he didn't know much about the organization and rules of the Underworld.
"I don't know who sent it, but it has the seal of the Yins on it, so it cannot be faked," said the city emperor.
"What's he doing here?"
"Looking for something."
"What?"
"He didn't say." The city emperor shook his head.
"The city has been haunted these past two days, and several people have died, but what did he do?"
"They are his secret soldiers."
"Bring him out."
"Yes, sir!"
The city emperor dodged and disappeared, and within a moment the ghost general wearing armor and stomach arrived at the main hall.
He is holding a spear, wearing armor and has a green face.
"I have met my lord!" The general immediately bowed and saluted after seeing the token in Wang Zhe's hand, but he seemed a little reluctant.
Wang Zhe stared at the ghost general coldly.
"What are you doing here?"
"Passing by here."
Wang Zhe sneered. He raised his hand, and a dark purple flame on his fingertips flickered like a candle.
"Karma fire!"
The ghost general and the city emperor couldn't help but take a step back when they saw this.
Although one of them enjoys offerings from the human world and the other is a military commander in the underworld, they are actually still ghosts. However, ghosts are not afraid of this "karma fire".
What's more, Wang Zhe's flame is not just a karma fire, but a flame that is the fusion of "real fire" and "karma fire", possessing the power of both flames.
"Say!" Wang Zhe said coldly.
"Just passing by."
"Passing by, I also took a trip to Daiyue a few days ago, right?"
The ghost moved his bloody eyes and said nothing. For a moment, the atmosphere in the hall was a bit depressing.
"Where did those defeated Yin soldiers go?"
"have no idea."
"I don't know what to ask? Very good."
Wang Zhe raised his hand, and the karma fire suddenly fell on the ghost general.
Ah, the ghost will make a shrill scream.
In just a moment, it was burned into a wisp of dark wind and dissipated in the hall.
"City Emperor."
"Sir." The city emperor on the side immediately stepped forward.
"Check to see if those underworld soldiers are nearby."
"As commanded."
"Has Wu Zhengang ever been to Dongping County?" Wang Zhe stared at the city emperor.
"Sir, I really don't know." The city emperor replied.
Wang Zhe smiled when he heard this.
"How many years has the City Emperor been here?"
"My lord, it has been more than one hundred and seventy years now." The city emperor said after being silent for a while.
Sure enough, an old guy who has survived for more than a hundred years is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp.
If you have it long enough, you will definitely know enough, and you will have more things to worry about. The older you get, the more you will be afraid of death.
Although the city emperor is in charge of a place, he may not really be dedicated to the people.
No matter what era it is, people who are too honest usually don't live long, let alone ghosts.
After experiencing it while alive, and becoming a Yin spirit after death, it becomes transparent and smooth.
Wang Zhe held the Yin Commander Card in his hand and remained silent, while the City Emperor stayed aside and didn't speak.
It was so quiet in the main hall that you could hear a pin drop.
Wang Zhe suddenly recited a mantra.
The city emperor on the side lowered his head slightly and moved his eyes.
After a while, there was a sudden burst of mist, and then a ghost messenger wearing official uniform came to the Chenghuang Temple.
"See you, sir, see the city emperor." After the ghost messenger appeared, he immediately saluted Wang Zhe and the city emperor.
Wang Zhe took a look and realized that the ghost messenger must have been replaced by another one, not the same one he called last time.
"Why did the Yin Division release Yin soldiers into the Yang world?"
"Sir, I don't know." The ghost said truthfully.
"Sir, the Yin Division is vast, and there are ten palaces of Yama. The areas under their jurisdiction are different, and Yin soldiers are stationed in all of them.
Ordinary ghosts may not know about Yin soldiers entering the Yang world. If you really want to know the reason, you can go to the Yin Division." The city emperor on the side said softly.
Wang Zhe turned his head and glanced at him after hearing this.
Go to the underworld?
To be honest, he had really thought about this, but he would not rush in without knowing what was going on there.
Although his current cultivation level is acceptable, the underworld is different from the underworld after all. It is easy to enter, but it may not be that easy to come out.
"Does this city emperor have something on his mind?"
"If you want to go to the Yin Division, I'll ask Emperor Lao Cheng to accompany me."
"My Lord's orders, I'll naturally do my best," the city emperor said without any hesitation.
"The city emperor has to worry about the Yin soldiers."
"You should handle matters within your scope yourself." Cheng Huang said.
"Sorry for disturbing you."
Wang Zhe waved his hand to the ghost and motioned for him to leave with him.
The City Emperor sent Wang Zhe out of the City Emperor Temple, and only returned to the temple after seeing that he and the ghost were far away.
After he entered the temple, a moment later a judge in red robe appeared.
"Did you hear what you just said?"
"I heard it." The judge nodded.
"It's been a long time since I've had such an inspection envoy from the underworld. People from the upper world are in charge of the affairs of the underworld, and they actually have karma in their bodies. Their cultivation is unfathomable."
"Sir, what did we do?"
"This gentleman is just passing by. We will stay here for a long time." The city emperor said.
"I understand." The judge immediately understood what the city emperor meant.
The streets outside were empty and deserted.
One person, one dog, and one ghost.
"May I ask your surname?"
"I don't dare, the villain's real name is Zhang Cheng."
"We are in the same place, can you be under the jurisdiction of that city emperor?"
"To tell you what my lord, this villain is a ghost servant from the underworld, and is not under the jurisdiction of the city emperor in the underworld."
"The ghosts of the underworld, the ten palaces of Yama, which palace do you belong to?"
"To tell you what my lord, I am working as an errand in the first palace."
"The first hall governs life and death in the human world, and governs good and bad luck in the underworld. Good and evil are all judged in that hall. Whether you enter reincarnation or suffer in the underworld, the first hall will judge.
Yes or no?" This is some of Wang Zhe's understanding of the Ten Palaces of Yama in his previous life.
"Sir, that's exactly what it is." The ghost said.
Then Wang Zhe asked some more questions.
For example, how to enter and exit the vagina with the physical body.
This requires special spells and magic weapons. The token in Wang Zhe's hand allows him to freely enter and exit the underworld to obtain a certificate. Moreover, at night, he can enter and exit the underworld as long as he passes through the city emperors or ghost gates in various places.
Ghost agents like Zhang Cheng are actually sent by the underworld to serve various places in the human world.
"Is there a gate to hell under Dai Yue?"
"To tell you the truth, sir, yes."
"Where is it? Take me to see it."
"As commanded."
Under the guidance of the ghost, they left Dongping County and went to a place outside the city.
It was a very eerie place in the mountains. Not long after walking, a dilapidated temple suddenly appeared.
Further forward, a pass appeared between the two peaks. It looked tattered and seemed to be made of rocks piled randomly.
Wang Zhe looked with his Dharma eyes, and the scene in front of him suddenly changed drastically.
The two mountains were raised by more than just stone monuments, and the same was true for the pass in front of them, which had transformed from a dilapidated state into a majestic pass.
There are three characters on it: "Ghost Pass".
"You can enter the Netherworld through this place." Zhang Cheng said.
Wang Zhe stood in front of the gate of hell for a long time.
Suddenly there was a gust of wind, and a ghost messenger came from a distance with some ghosts locked in his hands. When he came closer, he said hello to Zhang Cheng.
Hearing that Wang Zhe was the inspector of the underworld, the ghost officer hurriedly saluted.
Then he led the group of ghosts through the gate of hell and entered the underworld.
"Sir, do you want to enter the underworld?"
"I'm not going today." Wang Zhe waved his hand.
"Thank you."
"I don't dare." Zhang Cheng said hurriedly.
"This is for you." Wang Zhe took out a "Netherworld Bead" and handed it to Zhang Cheng.
"This, it can't be done, it's too precious." Zhang Cheng waved his hands hurriedly.
As a ghost agent, he naturally knows how precious this "Netherworld Pearl" is.
This is a treasure made of condensed Yin Qi. It is of little use to monks in the world. It is even considered highly poisonous.
But to them, the ghosts of the underworld, this is equivalent to a human elixir, a treasure from heaven and earth, a treasure that can be encountered but cannot be sought.
This small "Netherworld Pearl" is enough to be worth his decades of hard work.
"There's no use keeping this thing with me. I'm giving it to you. Take it."
"Thank you, sir, for the reward!" Zhang Cheng did not refuse and took it with both hands.
"Goodbye by fate."
"Sir, walk slowly."
Wang Zhe took Laifu and turned away.
Zhang Cheng looked at the "Netherworld Bead" in his hand and knew that he had encountered a great opportunity today.
After Wang Zhe left with Laifu, he went to the mountain village of Yili and saw a large tomb on the mountain with burning ashes.
"Those two guys did a pretty good job at this job."
"Let's go, Laifu, let's go?"
Wang Zhe took Laifu and wanted to leave this place at night.
He stayed near Dongping County for another two days, looking for traces of the Yin soldiers. He actually found some broken soldiers and picked them up along the way.
Still got a "Netherworld Pearl".
"Let's end this matter, Laifu, let's go."
On this day, when it was getting dark, Wang Zhe left Dongping County with Laifu and Tuanzi and headed west.
He was not walking fast, and before he knew it, he saw a big river in front of him, rolling eastward.
turbid river,
Wang Zhe took Laifu to the river. The water in the river was not as turbid as in his previous life, but it looked a bit more majestic.
"Laifu, let's just go along the Zhuohe River?"
Along the Zhuo River all the way west, stop and look, and then stop and sit down when something comes to mind, maybe for an hour or two, or for half a day, or for a day.
On this day, I came to a place
Wang Zhe heard crying from a distance and felt very sad.
As I slowly approached, I found an elderly man crying by the river. The old man was in ragged clothes and had gray hair.
There was a small grave mound in front of the old man, as well as some ashes. It was obvious that he had just paid homage to someone here.
Looking at the breath above the old man's head, it was thin, faint, and gray. It was obvious that he was in poor health and might not live long.
"My son!" the old man was still crying in a low voice.
Wang Zhe just sighed slightly when he saw this.
Along the way, the world is so chaotic and people are dying everywhere. He has seen too much.
My heart is not numb, and my blood is not cold, but I am disappointed with the world.
He finally realized what he said.
When it prospers, the people suffer; when it dies, the people suffer.
No matter what, it is the common people who suffer.
Some people freeze to death, hugging the stove and watching beauties singing and dancing, some starve to death, and some eat delicacies from the mountains and seas, wine ponds and meat forests.
This is how the world is.
Wang Zhe was about to step forward to comfort the old man, but saw the old man turned around, walked a few steps, and jumped into the turbid river.
He hurriedly reached the river, parted the water, rescued the old man, and instantly evaporated the river water from her body.
A fire was lit and a stream of spiritual energy passed through the old man's body. After waiting for less than a cup of tea, the old man woke up, opened his eyes, and looked at Wang Zhe.
"Is this the underworld?"
"Old man, where does the sun come from in the underworld?" Wang Zhe pointed to the pale sun in the sky.
The old man was stunned for a while and then realized that it was the young man in front of him who saved him.
"Hey, why are you saving me? Last year my husband was killed by bandits. This year my son fell into the river and drowned. I can't survive alone." The old man cried.
Wang Zhe was speechless for a while after hearing this.
Yes, how can this old man survive at this point?
In the end, Wang Zhe left some food and a piece of silver and left.
Maybe the old man can live a little longer after he leaves, or maybe not long after he leaves, the old man will continue to commit suicide by drowning in the river.
"Laifu, after this trip, let's find a place to live in seclusion in a deserted mountain, right?" Wang Zhe said suddenly.
Woof woof, Laifu responded twice.
As evening approached, Wang Zhe saw two people standing by the river, one of whom was holding something similar to a compass in his hand.
"This is it!"
"Senior brother, should we be right this time? But it's just the two of us!"
"Don't worry, there will be no problem this time. I have calculated it accurately. The node of the water vein is here! There must be the water dragon stone we are looking for under the water here!"
"Brother, why don't we find another river? This turbid river is so turbid and the current is so fast that I'm afraid to go in..."
"Hey, you don't need to go, I'll go this time." The slightly older young man said.
