Seeing that the living souls of Heilong and Sun Hu, who had just escaped from the corpse, were still crying out in pain, Bai Wuchang stuck out his long tongue and said that under normal circumstances, it would take six hours for the living souls of the dead to escape from the corpse. That way there is no pain. But you are all evil-doers. In order to punish you, we deliberately came to arrest your souls in advance, just to tear your souls out alive and torture you to death. We didn't wait for 6 hours.
At present, Hei Long and Sun Hu were locked up with chains by Hei Wuchang and Bai Wuchang respectively, and were led to the nearby Earth Temple that governed this place. The two undead have officially arrived in the underworld, and the Earth Temple is their first stop.
Halfway through the road, there was a pond on the side of the road. Hei Wuchang looked at the blood-stained Black Dragon and said, "Go to the pond and wash yourself. If you wash yourself clean, you can meet the father-in-law of the land." The black dragon has a round face, thick black color, small eyes, and a very cold luster. He glanced at Hei Wuchang and shook the chain that locked his hands, meaning how could I clean it without untying the chain? Hei Wuchang followed him to the pond and watched him wash away the blood.
Bai Wujian saw this and said to Sun Hu, who was standing still, "You don't have to wash anywhere else. You must rinse your mouth well. You have eaten a pot of cooked meat with arsenic, and your mouth is full of medicinal smell, which is very unpleasant."
Sun Hu raised his hand and pointed to the pond, because it was not good here. He thought the black dragon had made the water dirty, so Bai Wuchang led him over there. Sun Hu, who had bulging eyes, suddenly spotted a monster with a human head and an animal body jumping out of the water. He panicked and stopped moving forward. Bai Wuchang, who was pulling the chain, was about to ask what happened? Before the words were spoken, the monster said with a serious face, "Oh, two gods, my pond is not wide. If you let two dirty dead souls come here to wash and rinse, won't you pollute my pond?"
Bai Wuchang seemed to know him, so he said, "Tang Shen, I'm sorry, please excuse me." We are about to escort these two dead souls to the Earth Temple to pass customs. There is a big river near the Chenghuang Temple close to the city, and you can wash in the river. Now we can only make do with it. Besides, after the two dead souls wash and rinse, the water in the pond will be clean after settling.
It's not raining now, so how can the water in the pond settle so quickly? Can't you take two dirty dead souls and wash them in the river? Tang Shen still said dissatisfiedly, spraying water mist from his mouth.
Tang Shen, don’t be so stingy. Didn’t Bai Wuchang tell you, how far is the river from here? Hei Wuchang stood on the pond and looked at the pond god and said.
Forget it, forget it, next time you come to catch the undead, don't wash in my pond when passing by, I'm afraid of you. The Pond God said as he slowly dived into the water.
Bai Wuchang said, Pond God, I have a good relationship with Feng Boyu Po. In a few days, ask them to rain 800 mm of heavy rain in this area. All the dirt in your pond will be cleaned up. I don’t know if Tang Shen heard it, but it disappeared.
The two dead souls washed away the dirty blood in the pond, and after gargling their dirty mouths, they were led by Hei and Bai Wuchang to the nearby Earth Temple. When the Earth God saw that the two dead souls were wearing monk's robes, he said in surprise, two monks died not long ago, why are two more monks dead now?
Hei Wuchang explained that they were not monks, but two bad guys. Then he told the cause of death of Heilong and Sunhu who killed each other, and the land god understood it, and shouted angrily, "You two deserved to die." Not long ago, two monks were killed by you. After that, you two pretended to be monks, and now you are still wearing monk robes. The Earth God called the temple servants to bring the coarse cloth clothes worn by lay people from the back room, and asked Heilong and Sun Hu to quickly change out of their monk robes.
Generally speaking, most ghosts in the underworld are dressed in ancient costumes, but the newly deceased souls mostly wear the clothes they wore when they died in the underworld. The ghost officers in the underworld are different. They all wear uniforms distributed by the underworld, and the colors and styles of the uniforms are different, just like the uniforms worn by officers and police officers in the underworld are also different.
Bai Wuchang felt that the words of the land gods were reasonable, so he said to the two dead souls that it was time to replace them. You are not Buddhists. You stole the monk's robe and put it on by killing people and stealing goods, and you did all kinds of evil things. This time you are extremely evil. If you are caught in the underworld, you will have to go to the Abi Hell where you will never be reincarnated.
It is really necessary to come to the Tutu Temple, because there is a Tutu Temple in every place, but the one in the city is not called the Tutu Temple, but the Chenghuang Temple, which is more solemn and majestic than the one in the countryside. This is invisible to the naked eyes of living people in the underworld, but it is real. It should give people the same feeling as the Yamen seen on TV. It has antique decorations, a brown and red square table in the middle, and the local " "Household Register" records the local mountains and rivers, population, livestock, number of people, etc.
As the saying goes, a place with water and soil supports a person, and a place with land protects a person. The birth and death of a soul must pass through the local earth temple. Although the earth god has a low status, he is a well-known righteous god, and no one dares to conflict with him. It is also an important messenger that communicates with the gods from all walks of life in the world. From the transmission of documents to the incineration of money and paper, it is all inseparable from the help of the land god.
Whenever someone's life is over, the ghost will take the soul to the Tutu Temple to pass the customs with the soul-enchanting card and the approval ticket. The land god will open the local "household registration book" to verify whether the deceased is a local surname, whether he died of a normal life, whether he had any religious beliefs, etc. After checking everything, he will stamp the name of the local land god on the approval ticket. The big seal leads to the underworld.
There are two passages on both sides of the Earth God Gongan, one is the road that leads directly to the Western Paradise, and the other is the Huangquan Road that leads to the underworld. One pass is extremely bright, while the other is extremely dark.
At this moment, the Land God looked through the local "Household Register" and saw that the life span columns of Heilong and Sun Hu had been changed. It was not long ago that he received a notice from the underworld that his life span would be reduced by 30 years and 35 years respectively. In 2008, one of them is 20 years old and the other is 22 years old. Their life span was originally 50 years old and the other was 57 years old. Because they committed the serious crime of killing a monk, their life spans were shortened by the underworld.
The Land God read the "Household Register" over and over again, but still found a problem, so he said to Hei and Bai Wuchang, "Hey, these two bad guys should have died and their souls were imprisoned at the end of this month. Why are they imprisoned now?"
Hei Wuchang smiled and said, Mr. Land, didn't I tell you that the two villains had their own agendas and killed each other. They died without Bai Wuchang and I taking action. It's better if we arrest their souls and fight against each other. Much easier. The Land God nodded, and Hei Wuchang and Bai Wuchang each took a copy of the soul-stirring card and the approval ticket. The Earth God looked at it, took out the seal of the local Land God, pressed it in the ink pad box, and stamped the big seal on the approval ticket respectively.
The Earth God and Hei and Bai Wuchang exchanged a few pleasantries with each other, but Heilong and Sun Hu, who had just died, couldn't quite understand it, because the underworld has its own words, which ordinary living people cannot understand, and it is also difficult for newly deceased souls to understand them. , but in order to facilitate communication, the Yin Chai who came to arrest the soul suppressed their words from the Yang world. Therefore, there is an idiom called "Land of lies", which means that when people talk like humans, ghosts naturally talk about lies.
At this moment, Black and White Wuchang escorted Heilong and Sun Hu out of the Earth Temple and turned into Yinfeng to set foot on the road to the underworld. There was no trace of life on the road. When I looked up at the sky, there was no sunlight. What I saw before me was a foggy, eerie, lifeless place.
