"Niu, how many do you have?"
"It's a little bit, Ma, are we really not going to Duxianmen to try?"
On the top of the cliff outside Fengdu City, two figures lay crookedly on the rocks, their eyes gradually lost their light, and let the wind of the nether world blow the soft manes on their headgear.
Ma Mian sighed weakly: "Hey hey hey...
The Great Witch Festival didn't let us go wandering around in the Xianzong of the Renjiao, and said that it's okay not to bother the Lord Water God all the time.
咴儿~
Lord Water God Rili Wanji, we don't have a suitable reason, how can we go to find it? "
Niutou picked up the clay pot on the side, looked inside carefully for a while, and smelled it with his nose...
This intoxicating taste is already so light.
In front of the two of them was a delicious spirit beast from the mortal world, but at this moment they had no thought of lighting a fire.
"Niu, we witches, once we have tasted a stronger taste, we really can't do it if we want to wrong ourselves."
"Ma, why don't we go and check for Lord Water God, are those witches lazy?"
"I'm afraid we won't be able to see the water god," Ma Mian combed his dull mane, "it's better to see a qi refiner in Duxianmen who is about to run out of life, let's go and do something serious soul
Then stop by the maker of these seasonings, the disciple of Duxianmen, Master Li Changshou! "
"Then just wait, maybe it will take hundreds of years before a fairy dies of old age!
But speaking of which…”
Niutou sat up, faced the horizon, and muttered in a low voice: "Have you ever felt that Li Changshou, a disciple of the Duxian Sect, appears several times, and there is always a smell similar to that of Lord Water God?"
The horse's face was pillowed on his own hands, "What does it smell like?"
Niutou squeezed the chin of the hood and muttered, "I can't tell, moo... anyway, it's not human, and it's a bit similar."
"Isn't it human?" Ma Mian wondered, "What else could it be
The Dao of Li Changshou, a disciple of Du Xian Sect, is similar to the Dao of Master Water God, but it is absolutely different.
Although we are witches, we must also be wise and capable, and we cannot rely solely on instinct, 咴er. "
Niutou scratched his horns and nodded approvingly.
"Instinct or something is really unreliable...
hiss-"
"It's okay, what's the cool air?"
Ma Mian stretched his long and toned legs, and said leisurely: "You are almost absorbing the heat of the underworld, Xi'er!"
"Ma, look over there, is it Li Changshou from Duxianmen who flew over there from the sky!
Grandmaster! Moo~"
"Huh? It's really this master!
Let the brothers get ready to receive the treatment of the water god! Our seasoning has a play! "
So, after a while...
Li Changshou took Youqin Xuanya to the front of Xiongguan on the east side of Fengdu City, but he couldn't help raising his hand to his forehead, he was a little reluctant to move forward.
Youqin Xuanya tilted her head curiously. Although she met a lot of qi refiners along the way, Li Changshou also told her in advance that the ghosts in the underworld are actually very 'cute', but in this situation...
Hundreds of underworld ghosts lined up in two lines, one by one holding up banners, a few gentle and watery yin cultivators sprinkled light white petals on the side, and the sound of gongs and drums was endless.
The bull-headed and horse-faced body stood straight on both sides, and the two pairs of big eyeballs exuded a strange light through the hood!
When Li Changshou rode the cloud forward again and flew more than ten feet away, he heard two soft sounds, leaving a few afterimages on the bull's head and horse's face, which appeared directly in front of Li Changshou and Youqin Xuanya.
This speed is so fast that Youqin Xuanya in the real fairyland has no time to react...
When she came back to her senses, she turned her head and looked to the side, only to see these two messengers of the underworld, who were also rumored in the wilderness, standing in front of Senior Brother Changshou.
The ecstasy with the horse's head was holding a stone comb to comb his smooth mane, while the other ecstasy was holding his arms. The two of them showed their white teeth at the same time, and began to...
sinister smile.
Clang!
The fire scale sword case was unsheathed a few inches, but Li Changshou pushed it back in time.
Niutou asked: "Little friend Longevity, why do you come to the underworld when you have time? Moo~"
"I want to ask two fellow daoists for a little favor," Li Changshou smiled with narrowed eyes, and with a bit of respect, he took out two treasure bags from his sleeve and handed them to the two witches respectively.
Li Changshou smiled and said, "You two are welcome."
Excited heart! Trembling hands!
Niutou Mamian almost cried aloud, took the treasure bag slowly, opened it to look at it, and fell into a great emotion.
"Master! Oh no, Fellow Daoist, the underworld really needs a talent like you, moo~"
"It doesn't matter what the job is, we'll help you! Sierra!"
"You two, it's like this." Li Changshou took out the two soul-absorbing beads, "Please take a look."
The bull's head and horse's face returned to seriousness in an instant, and each of them put away the seasoning, then frowned.
"Kamma? Such a strong karma, such a weak soul..."
Niutou muttered: "Is this the ruler of the Nanzhou human race?"
"That's right," Li Changshou said with a smile, "Is there any way?"
"There is really no way around this," Ma said with a straight face, "Such karma cannot be easily ignored, and it cannot be offset by merit. It can only be thrown into the eighteenth level of hell, and the karma can be worn away through suffering before reincarnation can continue. reincarnation.
Otherwise, the soul can only be directly shattered, and the true spirit reincarnated, completely disconnected from the previous life. "
While speaking, Ma Mian had already taken out the treasure bag he had just put away, and was about to send it back to Li Changshou...
"Why!"
With a big wave of his hand, Niutou blocked Ma Mian's treasure bag back, and said with a smile: "Actually, there is no way to do this, just, it's very troublesome..."
Li Changshou squinted his eyes and smiled, and took out two more treasure bags, and handed them to the two ghost seducers respectively.
"Then I will trouble you both."
"It's impossible, hey! It's impossible, look at this... It's easy to say, easy to say."
Niutou took the treasure pouch in his hand, and stuffed the horse face's share into the horse face's bosom, then said seriously:
"But there is one thing, the suffering of these eighteen levels of hell is unavoidable, otherwise the order of the heaven and earth may be messed up.
We can only help, let him suffer less, and arrange him to be in the corner of whichever level of hell he is sentenced to later.
Fellow Daoists, can this work? "
Li Changshou glanced at Youqin Xuanya, and found that Youqin Xuanya was frowning and thinking;
She was somewhat resistant to this kind of thing, but at this moment she didn't directly stand up and kill her relatives righteously.
Toxic is really less toxic!
Li Changshou was inexplicably moved, and said in a voice: "Junior Sister Youqin, let me deal with this matter, don't say anything."
"Yes," Youqin Xuanya nodded in agreement.
Li Changshou took half a step forward, whispering to each other face to face, and took the opportunity to inquire about the details of the 18th hell, and also asked why they dared not take this job.
The lords of these mortal kingdoms lived hundreds of years longer by relying on life-extending pills;
When they die, they will often find one or two trustworthy qi refiners to bring their souls to the underworld to see if they can arrange their next life.
But once these human 'emperors' are involved, the underworld will change their usual polite, business-friendly appearance, and seriously and resolutely refuse.
Niutou explained:
"There was this kind of thing in the early years, and the result was a direct punishment from heaven. The bribed errand and the judge who wrote the verdict were directly chopped into residue, leaving no trace of true spirit.
The lords of these Fang kingdoms in the secular world all have remnants of luck in their bodies. If they prolong their own life without authorization, it is equivalent to fighting against the law of heaven...
Therefore, he can only be thrown into eighteen levels of hell.
But it is still possible to suffer less, which is within the scope of the law of heaven. "
Li Changshou nodded slowly, and asked Youqin Xuanya: "Junior Sister, what do you think?"
"It's already very embarrassing to the adults of the underworld," Youqin Xuanya clasped her fists and bowed, "Thank you, senior brother, and thank you two envoys."
"You don't have to be polite, baby!"
Li Changshou looked at the bull's head and horse face, and said again: "Although it is sent to the eighteenth floor of hell, can you be more tolerant and let the two of us watch from the sidelines
It can be regarded as letting my junior sister give her father a ride, so as to completely cut off the relationship with the world and show my filial piety. "
"Seriously," Niutou agreed, and then said a little uneasy, "It's just that we can only help with these things, but we have taken so many benefits from fellow daoist... and fellow daoist, please don't tell Lord Water God about this matter. "
"Don't worry, fellow daoists," Li Changshou patted his chest, "I will never say this to the Water God!"
Now that the bull head and horse face were all relieved, seeing the large amount of seasonings they got, they couldn't help but brow up with joy, and lured the two Du Xianmen disciples to Fengdu City.
The Bull Head and Horse Noodles already had a small status in the Wu Clan, but in recent years, because of their close relationship with the Heavenly Court Water God, they have been given special attention by the Underworld.
It's not a problem, it's just a matter of saying that the two underworld divisions are popular and spicy chickens, and they arrange for a lord of a small mundane country, and just let the lord suffer less punishment in the 18th hell.
When Li Changshou summoned the souls of dozens of guards from another soul-absorbing bead...
Perhaps because of the embarrassment of taking too many seasonings, the bull head and horse noodles were extraordinarily enthusiastic, and even a little too hard.
They immediately recruited a brigade of ghosts, and asked the ghosts to arrange the reincarnation of these normal souls, and each find a good family.
Niu Tou also enthusiastically asked these guards if they had any special requirements, such as being too tired to be a man in this life, so they can be changed into women through the life and death book in the next life.
The true spirit is uncertain.
Li Changshou blinked, Jade Emperor seems to have some new projects in his future reincarnation!
I can give His Majesty the Jade Emperor some new tricks.
Cough, let's talk about business.
Today's superficial focus is to deal with the old king's soul.
Li Changshou took Youqin Xuanya to follow behind Niutou Mamian, and sneaked into a hall of hell. Not long after, the soul of Youqin Xuanya's father was brought before a high judge...
The bull head and horse face immediately went up to whisper a few words, and the judge glanced at Li Changshou in the corner, and nodded calmly.
"Since the disciples of the Immortal Sect of the Human Sect and the juniors of the Human Sect who are valued by the water god have invited them, it can save you from being frightened."
The gavel that was originally held high fell gently, and the judge also put away the feeling of oppression, and said loudly:
"The big ghost and the little ghost stepped back, and the Lord of the Honglin Kingdom looked up, left and right, and verified that he was upright..."
The court trial proceeded in an orderly manner, and the chief judge soon got a scroll and began to count down the past life sins of the old man in brocade robe kneeling below...
Not long after, Youqin Xuanya pursed her lips and frowned, staring at her father with helplessness and shame in her eyes.
This king really committed all the karma that the king of a country can commit...
Li Changshou listened for a while, and couldn't help shaking his head. Immortal Consciousness continued to investigate everywhere.
Naturally, he came here as a disciple of the Renjiao, not just for Youqin Xuanya's old father.
Nowadays, coming to the underworld as a water god, I can no longer see various problems in Fengdu City;
Every time the water god shows up in the Netherworld, the underworld will clear the streets of Fengdu City, as if dealing with a superior investigation, and cover up some small problems.
And these hidden messages are very important to Li Changshou, and they are the key to Li Changshou's next plan of 'underworld reform'.
Li Changshou deduced that there must be a great merit in the underworld, but the underworld is not like the dragon clan;
The latter was loyal to the Heavenly Court and overcame many obstacles. His initial mentality was very similar to that of Pan Jinlian being betrothed to Wu Dalang;
As for the underworld facing the Heavenly Court, it is exactly like Pan Jinlian actively pushed open the window, saw the Ximen officials passing by below, and threw down a stick...
Full of initiative.
Li Changshou pondered and calculated for a long time, and found that the merits of the underworld should be hidden in various existing problems in the underworld.
You have to have eyes that are good at finding problems, and if you aggregate all kinds of small problems in the underworld, it will become a big problem.
Having said that, Uncle Zhao is gone forever, and I don't know how he discussed with the Holy Mother of Golden Light.
From the bottom of his heart, Li Changshou suppressed this matter for the time being, and letting a paper Taoist wait in the back hall of the Sea God Temple would not delay Uncle Zhao's affairs.
Perhaps, when Gong Ming and Jin Guang said they wanted to break up, they remembered each other's love and decided to try again...
This is not impossible.
The chief judge counted the crimes of Xuan Ya's old father, and sentenced her old father directly according to the normal situation, and put her old father into the eighteenth level of hell to suffer for three thousand years before allowing him to reincarnate.
Next, the ghost escort escorted the old lord's soul, and flew towards the Immortal Island of Reincarnation; Niutou Mamian took Li Changshou and Youqin Xuanya, and followed far behind.
This time they did not go to the six paths of reincarnation, but to the edge of the reincarnation fairy island, and arrived at a dark red cliff.
Two black lights flew from under the cliff, turning into two dark chains;
The ghost messenger grabbed the chain and locked it on the wrist of the old master of Hong Linguo, and looked at the bull-headed horse-faced man beside him.
"Moo!"
Niutou said: "Let's say a few more words."
"Thank you," Youqin Xuanya replied in a low voice, bowed her head and knelt down facing the old king without saying a word.
The old king trembled a few times, and only then saw Li Changshou and Youqin Xuanya who had been following behind;
He subconsciously wanted to ask for help, but he didn't say it. He just looked at Li Changshou, nodded at Li Changshou, turned around and opened his arms.
The iron chain slid down slowly, making a piercing friction sound, and the figure of the old king was dragged into the endless abyss.
There were bursts of mournful cries below, as if a door was opened and closed very quickly, and the cliff fell silent again.
The muffled sound of the wind came with sobs from a distance, and Li Changshou stood beside Youqin Xuanya with his hands behind his back, and she was already kneeling on the ground, silent.
After a while, Li Changshou said:
"Xuanya, let's go back..."
Jingle Bell-
The crisp wind chime sounded in his ears, and Li Changshou suddenly felt a little dazed, and this picture appeared in his heart:
The lake is as smooth as a mirror, surrounded by white mist;
There was a woman in a black veil lying on the lake. Taking advantage of her fair skin like white jade, if you look carefully, her ankles, wrists, neck, and waist are all bound by thin silver chains.
For some reason, she closed her eyes and cried. Tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes, and she murmured something, but Li Changshou couldn't hear it clearly...
An inexplicable sadness hovered in his heart. Li Changshou, the Paper Taoist, was naturally fine, but the eyes of the main body far away in a corner of Duxian Gate became inexplicably moist, and he heard that weak and hoarse voice from the bottom of his heart.
'help me. '
"Brother, let's go back."
Youqin Xuanya's voice sounded nearby, and Li Changshou snapped back to his senses. The picture he saw dissipated in an instant, but the sadness hovered in his heart, which could not be calmed down for a long time.
