Chapter 28 Journey to the Underworld (please recommend, please vote)

"You have a filial piety. If you have good things, you can still think of me, a bad old man."

Yu Santong couldn't put it down and played with the Huangquan Yinming soil in his hand. This thing was also in hot demand in the underworld. He had only seen it a few times in Judge Zhong Kui's house.

"Where did you find this treasure?"

Yu Santong asked curiously. There must be something fishy about a treasure that is hard to find in the underworld actually appearing in the underworld.

Uncle Jiu then told Yu Santong about Chu Renmei.

After Yu Santong was silent for a while, he said:

"Forget it, you release Chu Renmei's ghost, and I'll send her to settle in the City of Wasted Death."

Uncle Jiu nodded, took out a scarecrow with a talisman on it, uncovered the talisman, and threw it to the ground.

A long-haired female ghost in blue appeared at the right time, and said loudly with a ghostly voice:
"I don't want to go to the City of Wasted Death, stinky Taoist, let me out, I want revenge! I want to kill them!"

Yu Santong didn't talk nonsense to her. He raised his hand and chains stretched out from the ground to tie Chu Renmei up tightly.

This is the underworld, and as the magistrate of the underworld, Yu Santong has the authority to do so.

Ordinary evil spirits simply cannot compete with him.

He called a few more ghost servants and ordered them to send Chu Renmei to the City of Wrong Death, which is a place where wronged souls are imprisoned.

After watching Chu Renmei being escorted away by a group of ghosts, Yu Santong said softly:
"The underworld has not been peaceful recently. Another Asura King has appeared in the Asura Realm, causing ghosts in the entire underworld to cry and howl. Many ghosts want to take refuge in the earth."

"This Huangquan Yinming soil was probably brought to the Yang world by a ghost who took refuge."

Uncle Jiu frowned when he heard this and said:
"The underworld is so chaotic. I'm afraid there will be chaos on July [-]th next year."

On July [-]th, the gate of hell opens, and ghosts will take the opportunity to return to the human world and enjoy the offerings of future generations.

Now that the underworld is in chaos, there will definitely be many ghosts who are unwilling to return to the underworld after going to the earth.

At that time, a large number of ghosts will stay in the world, and I don't know how much trouble they will cause.

And no one can say how long this Asura King chaos will last. In short, the world will not be peaceful in the near future.

Yu Santong sighed. There was nothing he could do about this kind of thing. The gate of hell would open on July [-]th. It was the rule set by Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, the mastermind behind the underworld.

No one can violate it, not even the Tenth Palace of Yama.

He is a small general judge. In the underworld, he is just a low-ranking official. How can he dare to talk too much.

"Forget it, worrying about things you can't control is unfounded. We won't do such stupid things."

Yu Santong was open-minded by nature and quickly adjusted.

He looked at his apprentice with a half-smile, and said lightly:
"You won't come to the underworld if you have nothing to do. If you have any requests, please tell me immediately. Don't act like a bitch."

Uncle Jiu coughed and was a little unable to answer the words again.

Lin Cheng was considerate and stepped forward again to resolve the embarrassment and said:

"Master, as you said, we can't come and see you if you have nothing to do."

"But, we do have something going on. Hehe."

Old God Yu Santong was there, and he nodded when he heard this, knowing that things were not that simple.

As a disciple who was destined to be poor, he would definitely not give gifts without receiving any favors in return.

"My master, Hong Luan, is very excited and is going to ask for a concubine. Master, do you want to show me how to marry me?"

Uh?
My stupid apprentice wants to have a concubine?
I don’t even have a wife, so I just want to have a concubine, this idea.
It's amazing!
"Xiaojiu, you finally figured it out, okay, I will help you as a teacher!"

Yu Santong was greatly relieved that he could finally hold his grandson.

Uncle Jiu:.
"Traitor, what nonsense are you talking about? Get out of here!"

Uncle Jiu was very angry. He didn't expect that Lin Cheng would turn Yi Jun against him. He obviously wanted to help Lin Cheng arrange his marriage.

Lin Cheng chuckled and walked out shamelessly.

"Tingting, please go out for a while."

Uncle Jiu quickly changed his face again and said to Ren Tingting pleasantly,

After sending the two of them away, Uncle Jiu secretly plotted something important with his master. The master and the disciple discussed it for a long time.

During this period, Lin Cheng took Ren Tingting to visit the underworld.

Since many ghosts have retained their habits in life, the architecture of the underworld is similar to that of the earth.

In the underworld, the structure of the city is basically the same as that of an ordinary town. There are also various small shops, vendors, inns, restaurants and other places.

Different from ordinary towns, the decoration colors here are mainly black and white, with occasional blood-red buildings.

It is worth noting that the buildings in the underworld do not have house numbers or signboards.

A tombstone is erected in front of each building.

It introduces the host's life in detail, and if he is a businessman, he also introduces his business scope.

The most special thing is that many of the items here are alive.

Well, it cannot be said to be alive. It should be said that many items are conscious.Such as lanterns.

There is no sun in the underworld, but the city is as bright as day. The reason is that there are many lanterns with ghost faces floating in the sky above the ghost market.

The lanterns are still communicating with each other.

"Brother, you're not bright enough. Didn't I ask you to put more corpse oil on it?"

"Shut up, if you talk more I'll eat you."

"Huh? Aren't you a man-eating ghost? Why do you still eat ghosts? Ghosts are not tasty at all and your whole body stinks."

"Shut up and keep nagging you, it's so annoying!"

"I'm a nag to begin with. If I don't nag, who will?"

This kind of ghost face lantern has a special name called ghost lantern, which is a combination of ghost and lantern.

In addition to ghost lanterns, there are also slow-moving wood, floating pictures, walking clothes, etc., which are all products of the combination of ghosts and objects.

Things like this are everywhere in the underworld.

People are accustomed to adding a ghost word before specific items to call them.For example, ghost trees, ghost paintings, ghost clothes, etc.

Speaking of this, I have to mention one of the ways of spiritual practice of ghosts.

That is to obtain a physical form by merging with objects.

This method is almost equivalent to transforming yourself into a monster, and then you can start practicing in the monster's way.

As mentioned before, ghosts are incomplete, but at the same time, ghosts are also very adaptable and can integrate with almost everything in the world.

Utensils can be combined with lanterns to become ghost lanterns, and combined with houses to become ghost castles.

Animals can also be used. When combined with a frog, it becomes a ghost frog, and when combined with a tiger, it becomes a ghost tiger.

Even ghosts and ghosts can combine with each other. This is the so-called one body and two souls, yin and yang corpses.

The most terrifying one is to combine with Tao and become the ghost of rules.

The strangest thing about this kind of ghost is that it can never be killed.

At least, general methods are absolutely unable to kill the ghost of rules, because this ghost has become part of the rules.

If that rule can be completely eroded, that is the Tao.

The ghost of rules can be promoted to Taoist ancestor and reach the pinnacle of cultivation.

However, there is currently no Taoist ancestor who has been promoted through this method.

Lin Cheng walked with Ren Tingting in the underworld, admiring the different customs with relish.

This kind of scene is absolutely invisible to ordinary people during life, and can only be seen after death.

"Lin Cheng, after death, will people forget everything in life?"

Ren Tingting asked softly.

Lin Cheng thought for a while and replied:
"To be precise, it is after drinking Meng Po soup that you forget your memories of your lifetime."

Ren Tingting said a little confused:

"The memory has been lost. Even if the body is still there, it's not the same person anymore."

She thought of her father, Ren Fa.

I don't know how he is now.

Lin Cheng nodded when he heard this, although in Taoist concepts, as long as the true spirit still exists, it is not considered death.

So reincarnation is just a new beginning.

However, in Lin Cheng's view, his memory has been erased, his behavior and thinking logic have changed, so how can he still be the same person.

This is equivalent to taking out the CPU of a computer and putting it into another computer to form a new computer.

It turns out that the computer actually no longer exists.

Therefore, in this life, he does not care about the future or the afterlife, but only seizes the day!

"Many people, uh, probably many ghosts, have the same idea as you, so they are unwilling to drink Meng Po soup and stay near the ghost gate."

"There are even countless towns, large and small, formed."

Lin Cheng said.

The place they were visiting was one of those countless towns, and the people stranded in it were all ghosts who were unwilling to forget the past.

Ren Tingting looked at the crowd of ghosts in a daze. If she died, she would probably be like these ghosts and not want to drink Meng Po soup.

 Recommendations will start next Monday. I hope all readers will support me and try not to keep it up until the last chapter is over and increase the amount of reading.

  please everyone
