How to become a wolf demon

Chapter 495 Mercy Trading
The scorching air burned the bird's beak and his face was a little painful. He was on guard at Naihe Bridge, and his time on guard was boring and monotonous.

Niu Zui is always used to immerse his eyes on the bridge of Naihe.

It's very strange, it's obviously a river where the Yin energy of the three realms gathers, it should be as cold as bones, but under the reflection of countless hot flints on the river bank, it looks steaming hot.

Magma flowed into the Styx from time to time, burning the lonely soul that was already on the verge of disintegration into soul energy, which merged with the gray mist above the Styx.

Every few months, when the gray mist gathers to a certain level, it will shed misty gray rain near the Styx River, and finally gather in the Styx River again.

It is this magical balance that keeps the Styx River flowing forever. Under the quiet river surface, there is an unknown undercurrent surging.

Watching the scarlet magma instantly turn into strangely shaped black rocks under the cooling of the Styx water, the bird's mouth was still thinking about the question in his heart——

Does the underworld really exist deep in the human world?
According to Guichai, a colleague who was a core disciple of a certain sect in the human world, just as the human world and the heavens are separated by endless winds, the human world and the underworld are also separated by endless soul fog. The gate of ghosts, going back and forth between the human world and the underworld.

The bird's beak shook his head. The memory of how he passed the headless road and passed through the gate of hell has long been blurred. Once the soul passed through the gate of hell and entered the underworld, the soul body seemed to have some kind of reaction with the faint mist that was everywhere in the air. , the invisible soul has gradually materialized.

The elder ghost messenger said that this is how these foreign spirits adapt to the underworld.

"Are ghosts outsiders to the underworld?" Niaozui asked curiously.

"The entire underworld is an outsider to the underworld. The underworld originally belonged to Asura and some messy races."

"Then where is the Asura clan now?"

The ghost messenger who looked like a young human race turned his mouth towards the upper reaches of the Styx River, and lowered his voice:

"It is said that there is another river of blood connected to the source of the river Styx, and Ashura built a small world after the river of blood."

Bird's mouth raised his head, his eyes crossed the Naihe Bridge, and he didn't even see the so-called source of the Styx River.

The bridge head on the other side of the long Naihe Bridge is hidden in the soul fog. Only occasionally after gray rain, when the soul fog dissipates, you can see that the bridge head is connected to a golden platform, and below the platform is a deep abyss. .

In the abyss, the mighty ghost with the platform on its head, occasionally revealing a scale and half of its claws, is enough to frighten away any curious ghosts.

After the platform is the Six Realms of Reincarnation. The ghost messengers don’t know what the Six Realms of Reincarnation looks like, because if they want to pass, they have to drink a bowl of Mengpo soup to wash away the past, and reincarnate is a new beginning.

This is the same reason as mortals without mana who don't know what the world after death looks like.

The voice of Jieyin Wuchang yelling at the new ghost interrupted Niaozui's idle thoughts, Hei Wuchang in black robe pushed the struggling ghost to him, Bai Wuchang took out a small seal and stamped it on the top of the ghost's head. stamp.

Niaozui nodded at Jieying Wuchang, and pulled out a flattering smile. Jieying Wuchang who can walk to the human world is at least at the immortal level, and his combat power and knowledge far exceed that of a ghost king like him.

Niu Zui took out a pale yellow ghost book sewn from Wanling leather, rubbed the ghost's breath characteristics and the pattern of the stamp on the top of the head, and made sure that the new ghost met the criteria for reincarnation, and then stood facing the ghost. The ghost messenger on the inside of the bridgehead waved his hand.

Receiving impermanence gradually disappeared in the depths of the soul fog, while the ghost guard guarding the bridge walked towards Naihe Bridge by pulling the ghost's hair.

When the ghost's chaotic howls disappeared, Niaozui knew that it must have been poured with Meng Po soup, and regained its tranquility. Niaozui returned to the sentry post outside the bridge head, looked at the thick ghost book in his hand, and felt a little headache.

This is the job that Niaozui is responsible for, making sure that all the ghosts walking on the Naihe bridge meet the criteria for reincarnation.

The sun in the human world sets from the western mountain every day, and then enters the sky above the underworld. There is no golden sunlight, only a faint red color after a solar eclipse. This is the underworld sun.

When the living people rest because the sun sets, the dark sun of the underworld has just risen.

As the red of the dark sun illuminates the gray mist, the ghosts will come one after another. This is the beginning of the day's work for the bird's mouth. This work is not difficult, but it is very cumbersome.

There are always powerful ghosts who can't let go of the obsessions of the previous life. They dare not provoke and attract impermanence, but they often target ghosts like Niaozui.

Some ghosts will keep yelling at their former enemies, and ghosts with the same duties as Bird's Beak often ignore them, but Bird's Beak will follow the responsibility filled with righteous indignation and curse, and some will break down and cry, lamenting the ups and downs of their life experience, Bird's Beak I won't be impatient, but I will be heartbroken and say a few words of comfort.

When he was a crow demon, he was a bit dumb, but when he became a ghost messenger, his behavior was called stupid by other ghost messengers.

As for why he did this, Niaozui had his own plans, it was nothing more than saying a few more words, but the ghost who had calmed down and reincarnated would occasionally tell Niaozui some cultivation methods during his lifetime. There are also tips for exercising the soul, which will benefit the bird's beak a lot.

Of course, more is to give Niaozui some incense and money from relatives in the human world. Money can make ghosts pervert. Mingqian is also accepted with peace of mind.

He doesn't think there's anything wrong with it, no matter human or monster, no one is obliged to empathize with others except parents, even though Bird's mouth sometimes doesn't even know whether the person he's yelling at is a man or a woman, but it's a play on the spot. But the last resentment of these ghosts, let them reincarnate with peace of mind, this is a win-win deal.

After all, he is the ghost of a crow demon, so it's okay to croak and curse a few words. Other ghosts can only complain that this guy can't change the habit of crow mouth after hearing the noise.

Niaozui regarded this as a business, until one day a monk came out from the golden platform opposite the Naihe Bridge. When passing by Niaozui, who was doing "hospice care" for ghosts, he paused slightly, turned his head and glanced at Niaozui— - "Amitabha, ghosts also have a heart of compassion..."

At that time, the bird's mouth was busy hinting at the number of exercises that the ghost practiced before he was alive. He only felt that the monk was noisier than himself, so he didn't care. Just like this, the small episode of the day passed. When the dark moon rose, the bird's mouth stopped for a day. Busy, he returned to practice cross-legged in his Onitsuka.

"My Buddha has a compassionate heart. I am a bhikkhu under the seat of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Seeing that you have a compassionate heart, you may wish to believe in my Buddha. I can teach you the method of condensing incense to help you practice."

When the monk's voice sounded from the bottom of Niaozui's heart, Niaozui was stunned—I'm doing business, so why is he so compassionate, but it's a bad idea not to take advantage of it...
