Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 311 Yama King

Li Xiuyuan led four guards to light a bonfire in the haunted house, waiting for the arrival of ghosts and gods here.

It is impossible for him to give up his residence to others because he is afraid of ghosts and gods, and besides, he is not afraid of ghosts and gods. Since the living and the dead want to live in the same place, it is natural to reason with the ghosts and gods entrenched here.

In addition to the ghosts lighting up the lights, at this time, there was a gust of cloudy wind with the smell of incense, and then I saw groups of soldiers in armor, armed with knives and guns, walking along the deserted street in the distance. It was actually a group of Yin soldiers holding a guard of honor, banners, wooden plaques and other things flying over.

"The ghost guard lights up the lamp, and the Yin soldiers lead the way. This scene is comparable to that thousand-year-old bat demon in the underworld." Li Xiuyuan frowned and took a look.

The Yin soldiers stopped outside the mansion, stood beside them, motionless, well-trained.

At this moment, an old ghost sang, "Your Majesty has returned home."

Accompanied by the sound of strong and weak drums, four ghost horses from the underworld came slowly, pulling an exquisite and luxurious carriage. There was a wind chime tied to one end of the carriage. As the carriage moved, the wind chime made a pleasant sound. I don't know how far it spread in the dark night.

Hearing the ringing of the bell, the nearby people knew that there was either a Taoist exorcist passing by on the street outside, or a ghost had gone crazy and needed to avoid it.

This is a very traditional rule, a means for people to deal with ghosts and gods.

"My lord, the mansion is here, please get off the carriage." An old ghost bent down and smiled flatteringly, and said beside the carriage.

"Hmm." A deep voice sounded from inside the carriage.

Then the curtain of the carriage was opened, and a tall but thin middle-aged man stepped out of the carriage. This middle-aged man was wearing a Dagon suit with various hideous and terrifying patterns painted on it, as well as the emperor's Dagon suit. The sun, moon, mountains and rivers embroidered on it are completely different, the face is black and blue, not like the skin color of a living person, and the long beard on the chin flutters, hanging down to the chest.

A crown is worn on the head, and jade beads hang down to block the face.

"Well, why did I smell the breath of a living person, and a living person broke into my mansion?" The majestic man, who looked like a king of the underworld, frowned and shouted: "Where are the Yin soldiers? Go to the mansion I want to see who is so arrogant and unreasonable, dare to break into my residence."

"No~!"

The Yin soldiers responded, and immediately a dozen Yin soldiers rushed into the mansion.

They immediately found Li Xiuyuan and others who were lighting a bonfire in the front yard.

Immediately, these Yin soldiers armed with chains, knives and guns rushed over unceremoniously, trying to hook the souls of the five people away.

"Young Master, it's Yin soldiers, Yin soldiers are flying over." Wu Fei exclaimed.

He, who was always vicious, also panicked at this time, with a bit of fear in his eyes.

"Indiscriminately seduce people's souls when they meet, they are domineering enough, Ma Dong and Niu Er have repelled these evil soldiers." Li Xiuyuan said: "The most taboo thing to deal with ghosts and gods is fear. The arrogance of the ghosts will be weak, and the ability of ghosts and gods can also become very powerful. As long as you have a firm mind to fight ghosts, these ghost soldiers are not your opponents."

"Yes, young master."

Ma Dong and Niu Er took the willow sticks from their waists, pretended not to be afraid, and immediately went up to them.

The willow sticks in their hands greeted fiercely, only to see that the chain in the hand of a flying Yin soldier was instantly broken into two sections with a bang, and then the Yin soldier flew out backwards with a strange scream. fell to the ground.

"Master, they are so weak." Ma Dong said pleasantly.

Li Xiuyuan said: "It's not that they are weak, it's that you are no longer afraid of ghosts. People have no fear, and tigers don't bully them, let alone small ghost soldiers. You can respect ghosts and gods, but you must not be afraid."

The confidence of the two people increased greatly when they heard the words, and they greeted the willow sticks in their hands.

Then some Yin soldiers' weapons fell on them, but it didn't hurt or itch, and they were broken directly by the shock.

Li Xiuyuan knew that this was due to the aroused courage of blood and qi. With the qi and blood of killing the enemy, ghosts and gods would retreat. The breath of gold and iron horses dissipated.

Seeing the bravery of Ma Dong and Niu Er, Li Xiuyuan knew that these two guards had been trained and could stand on their own.

In the past, like Tieshan and Wu Fei, they felt weak when they saw ghosts and gods.

Of course, Li Xiuyuan doesn't blame them either, who made ancient people think like this, and the fear of ghosts and gods is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

In a short time, a dozen Yin soldiers were beaten by two willow sticks and fled. A few Yin soldiers were even more unlucky. They were stepped on by Ma Dong and Niu Er and beat them violently. Yin Feng fled, but was suppressed by their breath and couldn't break free.

"Who is so bold that he dares to injure this king's yin soldiers in this king's mansion." Before Ma Dong and Niu Er finished fighting, the king-like ghost couldn't sit still.

But I saw two green will-o'-the-wisps emerging in the darkness, and then I saw a black-faced ghost and god wearing a uniform and a crown, striding in angrily.

The two green will-o'-the-wisps were actually his green eyes, which were glowing green at the moment, showing a frightening expression.

"Some ghost soldiers broke into my mansion, bewitching my soul indiscriminately. It's only natural for me to let the guards teach me a lesson. I don't know if I provoked that ghost and god to come?" Li Xiuyuan stood up at this time, out of courtesy He gave a salute to the ghost.

The ghost stared at Li Xiuyuan, as if he wanted to see through his life, but after looking at it for a while, he was still in a fog and could not see the background of the scholar in front of him, so he asked in a deep voice: "Who are you? ?”

"Scholar Li Xiuyuan, from Guobei County." Li Xiuyuan said.

"Scholar Li Xiuyuan? I haven't heard of it. You little scholar is very courageous. Do you know who this king is?" the ghost said majesticly.

Li Xiuyuan said: "It's not very clear? It would be the best if this ghost and god can report himself."

The ghost said in a deep voice: "I am the king of Yama, who is in charge of life and death in the world, and reincarnation in the underworld. This place is one of the king's palaces in the underworld. You, a mere scholar, dare to occupy the place of Yama. Don't you want to live? Thinking that you are ignorant and ignorant, this king would like to let you go mercifully. As long as you and your guards kowtow to this king three times, this king will let you go. sky."

Yama?
Li Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment, but then he burst into laughter.

"Why are you a scholar laughing?" the ghost said angrily.

"Haha, King of Yama? Your title of Yama is self-proclaimed. If you are really King of Yama, you should have a book of life and death. Do you have a book of life and death? If you can take a look, I will believe you." Li Xiuyuan laughed.

The dark and blue face of this ghost and god was a little ugly for a while, and he said angrily: "Is the book of life and death something you can read casually?"

"You look so stern, it means that you don't have the book of life and death. If you don't have the book of life and death, you can't be regarded as Yan Luo. With your morality and deeds, you can only be regarded as a ghost king, but you don't have the book of life and death, but I do." Li Xiuyuan finished speaking, suddenly There is an extra quaint book in his hand.

Write three big characters on it: Book of Life and Death.

In the dim environment, the book of life and death seemed to be shrouded in a layer of black light, with a somewhat mysterious color.

"The book of life and death? This, how is this possible?" The eyes of the ghost shrank, and a look of shock appeared on his face.

The supreme treasure of the underworld, the Book of Life and Death, would actually appear in the hands of a scholar. ?
Li Xiuyuan said: "Nothing is impossible. You are a ghost king who dares to call yourself Yan Luo. It is so strange that I have the book of life and death in my hand."

"Hand over the book of life and death, and I will spare you."

Seeing that the book of life and death lost his composure, the ghost and god immediately roared, and a terrible wind blew out of his mouth. The wind swept wildly, and the weeds flew upside down. The little ghost hiding in the weeds was even more unlucky, and screamed His body was blown away, and he disappeared without a trace. Even the sky was covered by Yin Qi, and the whole mansion was plunged into darkness.

The yin wind roared, carrying the ghost king's anger, and even the ghost soldiers under the ghost king's command, the ghost guards, couldn't help being affected by this roar, and it was unknown where it went.

The guards around Li Xiuyuan were startled when they saw this scene, their eyes showed a bit of panic, and just when the fear was revealed, the four souls were all blown out of their bodies and flew backwards go out.

The blazing bonfires in front of them changed color instantly, stained with strong Yin energy, and turned into green will-o'-the-wisps, swaying and dancing crazily.

When the ghost king was angry, his power was not inferior to the gods in the sky.

All the people and ghosts in the mansion were affected, but Li Xiuyuan stood on the spot, motionless, not affected by this terrible wind.

"Hoo hoo ~!"

The strong wind howled for a while before calming down.

The mouth of the long-bearded ghost king stopped spitting out the dark wind, but looked at Li Xiuyuan coldly and said, "When this king is angry, mortals can't bear it. If it is light, it will cause a coma, and if it is severe, it will lose your soul. Why are you okay?"

"It's a long story. In the underworld, there was a red-haired ghost king who yelled at me like this. He should be higher than you. In the end, he couldn't hurt me. It was my four guards. But they didn't keep their thoughts, they were frightened by you, their souls were weak, and they were blown away by the dark wind. Sure enough, their courage still needs to be practiced. They can deal with ghost soldiers and ghosts, but they still can't face a ghost king like you. " Li Xiuyuan shook his head slightly.

"No matter what your name is, if you hand over the book of birth and death, this king can return the souls of your four guards, and let you go, otherwise, you will die today." The ghost king with long beard walked towards Li Xiuyuan step by step, tall His figure was like a hill, shrouding Li Xiuyuan in shadow.

A great momentum fell on Li Xiuyuan.

In other words, anyone could no longer bear the majesty of this ghost king at this time, and was so frightened that he lay on the ground and trembled.

　Recently, I heard that Qidian has sealed a lot of books, so it won’t be on my head. The author is shivering in the corner.
