The years when I opened a coffin shop in the world of Ninth Uncle

Chapter 202 Zhong Kui's Assassination
Xu Ping, who had no sense of experience walking past those famous buildings in the underworld, such as Naihe Bridge, Sansheng Stone, and Wangxiang Terrace, couldn't help but quicken his pace.

It wasn't until a city wall appeared in front of him, and at the base of the wall, there was a small square table, and a dozing servant was sitting in front of the table, then Xu Ping turned his head to look at Song Qingling, and said, "I finally saw a living ghost."

Song Qingling covered her mouth and smiled: "Brother Xu, your words are really interesting."

"Well, well!"

The errand, who was awakened by the conversation between the two, took the Xingmu next to his hand and patted the table, "Do you understand the rules? You are new ghosts who have just arrived. You have to come to my place to register first. Nonsense." what."

Xu Ping was happy, and said with a smile: "It's the first time here, so I don't know what the rules are here."

"Eh!"

Yin Cha touched his forehead and said to himself: "That's true."

Before Xu Ping could reply, Song Qingling was behind him, tugged at his sleeve, and said softly, "The token he is wearing belongs to our underworld."

That's one of our own... Xu Ping nodded deeply, and said directly: "Brother, please take us to see Lord Zhong Kui."

Yin Cha raised his eyes and looked over, and said with a look of disdain: "Who are you, Master Zhenjun, you said to meet... Wait, what's your name?"

"Xu Ping!"

"Ah... so it's Mr. Xu. Master Zhenjun specially ordered the young one to wait here for you, Mr. Xu. Look at my memory. I have been waiting for more than ten days, and I almost missed the right owner."

The errand hurriedly got up and came out, politely.

It seems that Zhenjun Zhong Kui left him for more than half a step, and let him wait here...Xu Ping waved his hand and said with a smile: "Your Majesty Zhenjun is too polite, so I'll have Brother Lao to lead the way."

"Good talk!"

Yincha walked forward first, and introduced at the same time: "It's the first time for both of you to come to Fengdu, so let me introduce you first. This is the south wall of Fengdu. We also call it Yingguitai. The new ghosts will register and take numbers on the south side and the back side, and enter the underworld."

The underworld has developed for thousands of years, and the number of ghosts has increased sharply. Today's Fengdu is a more majestic city than half a step. It is said that it has been expanded three times.

And the underworld is in charge of everything in Fengdu, and will give each ghost who enters Fengdu a number plate.

Line up to reincarnate.

After more than half a step, it is only called a ghost, but after more than half a step, it is equivalent to officially stepping into the gate of ghosts, changing from a soul body to a ghost body.

Under the city wall of Fengdu, the ghost stopped and said to Xu Ping and Song Qingling next to him, "The city walls to the north and south of our place used to be very lively. Every day there are many ghosts queuing up here to enter Fengdu. Start a new life."

"What then?"

Seeing the deserted place here, Xu Ping subconsciously asked, after all, every story has its own aftermath.

Yincha curled his lips and shook his head: "Since the number of reincarnated ghosts has decreased, the conflicts in Fengdu have become more and more intense. In the end, I had no choice but to let the ghosts who had just died go and stay for a while longer."

Xu Ping nodded: "Then it got out of control after half a step, right?"

Yin Cha nodded helplessly, but immediately raised his head and showed a smiling face, saying: "But it will definitely end immediately, and it won't be a long time."

Xu Ping didn't expect that he would say such a thing, so he couldn't help asking: "Then how did you find out?"

The errand smiled: "Of course it's because, Mr. Xu, you're here."

"Pfft..." Song Qingling couldn't help laughing, and let out a silver bell-like laugh, "Brother Xu, it seems that the underworld is waiting for you to rescue."

Xu Ping was slightly speechless.

Talented people come out in large numbers in the underworld, so it's really up to me.

Although his own way of doing things is indeed not bad, but the other party is Earth Store Bodhisattva. Many years ago, he made a great vow to go to hell and never become a Buddha.

Doesn't that mean that the other party's cultivation has already reached the realm of a Buddha?

But what Xu Ping didn't understand was why this Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva suddenly became interested in power.

"Actually, I didn't say this sentence, Master Zhong Kui said it to me. Since the old man said so, it must be correct."

Xu Ping glanced at his mouth, had nothing to say, and followed him into the gate of Fengdu.

Not wanting to go through the gate, Xu Ping suddenly found that he seemed to be in a ghost passage, surrounded by ghosts crying, wolves howling, and crows crowing.

He almost thought it was this errand, playing some trick in the dark.

But when he saw the end of the Nether Passage, he knew that this errant was leading him directly through the streets and alleys of Fengdu to the underworld.

As for the location of Fengdu Difu, it was beyond Xu Ping's imagination.

When the surrounding images freeze, what appears in front of you is a black mountain with jagged rocks.

On the contrary, it looks very similar to Ten Thousand Corpse Mountain.

Not a single blade of grass grew on the mountain, and in Xu Ping's eyes, he could see palaces hidden deep in the mountains one after another.

Although Song Qingling was a errand, she had been staying at half a step before. This was also the first time she had come to Dufengdu Difu, and she was immediately taken aback.

"It turns out that this is the underworld, which is completely different from what I imagined."

The errand next to him heard it, and immediately smiled and said, "Do you think that the underworld should be underground, but it's not true, all the ghosts in Fengdu know that our underworld is in this mountain."

The scene in front of him also broke Xu Ping's inherent impression of the underworld.

Follow Yincha to circle up the mountain, and the foot is a mountain road made of black stone slabs. Yincha introduced: "In our Fengdu, the road under our feet is called the road of reincarnation. What the ghosts of Fengdu yearn for day and night is to be able to Get on this road."

Xu Ping had always had two questions in his mind, and at this moment he finally asked: "Brother ghost, I want to ask you, how is the situation in the Underworld now? Besides, the current Underworld is no different from Yangjian, so why are there all Ghosts are still thinking about reincarnation."

Hearing Xu Ping's question, the errand shook his head deeply: "Mr. Xu doesn't know something, as long as they are ghosts in the underworld, they will drink Meng Po soup, and after they drink Meng Po soup, there will be a long wait. For a period of time, they were in a state of confusion, and during this process, the belief of reincarnation had already been deeply rooted in their minds."

"As long as you reincarnate, you will have a bright future."

Xu Ping asked, "Why did you do this?"

The ghost said: "It didn't exist before, because the ghosts who came to Fengdu basically went to reincarnate in a short period of time, but later the number of reincarnations was limited. Some ghosts waited for a long time and gradually regained consciousness. Reincarnation produces resistance, if all ghosts are like this, then the number of people in the world will become less and less, which will lead to an imbalance between yin and yang."

"But now, that's happening."

Xu Pingdao.

Regarding the current situation, the errand didn't know how to speak, he just shook his head and sighed.

Seeing this, Xu Ping asked, "What about my other question, what's the current situation in the underworld?"

Xu Ping was still able to see that the number of ghosts in Fengdu was only a lot more than half a step during the journey that was like a ghost tunnel.

But the ghosts wandering the streets didn't look like half a step more, bitter and bitter, but some of them looked very happy.

Yin Cha smiled and said, "It's peaceful."

"impossible!"

Song Qingling said suddenly, with a loud voice, "It's impossible to make such a fuss in half a step, and nothing happened to Feng."

Yin Yao was noncommittal: "But it is true."

"why?"

Yincha said word by word: "Because they have all received their number plates, they all have hope for their future. Even if it takes decades to reincarnate, at least they still have hope in their hearts."

Right!

All they need is hope.

"Of course, there is another reason for this, because the underworld is in Fengdu, no matter what, everyone is still restrained." Yin Cha continued.

Xu Ping understood: "They are all registered ghosts. If they mess around in this place, the lifespan for reincarnation may be extended, or even the qualification for reincarnation may be deprived. Am I right?"

Yin almost nodded.

In other words, there is still restraint between the Jifu and Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, maintaining some kind of delicate peace.

It's justified on the face.

But this kind of peace is very likely to be broken in the near future.

After half a step of ghosts broke through the restriction and came to Fengdu, bigger conflicts would definitely erupt, which was unavoidable.

"Brother Xu, what are you going to do?"

It turned out to be such a situation, Song Qingling was very surprised, she had completely forgotten now that Xu Ping's thoughts were at the center of her erroneous position.

Xu Ping said softly, "Let's listen to Zhong Kui's meaning before we speak."

Song Qingling nodded, and Xu Ping continued up the mountain with Yin Cha, and when he reached the middle of the mountain, he had already reached the end of the black stone steps.

And a huge palace appeared in front of it, with red brick cornices, which looked very grand.

There was a huge open space in front of the palace. Xu Ping could imagine how lively it would be in the past, and how many ghosts would line up here to enter the underworld, ready to reincarnate.

It feels like the underworld is the administrative center in the underworld, but now, there seems to be a crisis of trust.

Xu Ping felt that although the messenger said that Fengdu was peaceful, it was definitely the calm before the storm, and there were probably not a few ghosts hiding in the dark who were loyal to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.

If you don't move, if you want to move, it is the momentum of thunder.

Before Xu Ping stepped forward and entered the open space in front of the palace, the void in front of him suddenly trembled, and two figures appeared.

One is holding an iron chain, has a human horse face, and red eyes, and the other is holding an iron fan, with horns on its head, and it is also human, but it is indeed a tauren.

These two should be bull-headed and horse-faced.

The bull head holding the iron fan took a step forward, looked at Xu Ping and Song Qingling, and said, "Why did you come to the underworld before the time of reincarnation? You all want to be scattered."

"Old Niu, don't act recklessly, they were invited by Master Zhong Kui." The errand that brought Xu Ping and Song Qingling over stood in front of them and shouted at the bull's head and horse's face.

"Zhang Daudao, why are you here? Didn't the lord send you half a step away?" Ma's red eyes stared at Yin, a little astonished.

The errand called Zhang Boldly laughed, "That's a trick played by Master Zhenjun. In fact, he ordered me to pick up these two nobles."

The bull-headed and horse-faced gaze returned to Xu Ping and Song Qingling, looking them up and down.

Song Qingling naturally didn't need to mention it, but it was just an accident.

But this son looks a little extraordinary.

As for what is extraordinary, the bull-headed horse-face can't see it, because his eyes are wide open, and he can't see Xu Ping's details.

It seems that standing there is a ghost, and it seems that this is a human body that has come to the underworld.

"Old Niu, am I delusional? Why do you feel that the one in front of you looks like a person?" Ma Mian touched the iron chain in his hand and said dully.

Niutou's eyes were focused, and his face was solemn: "He is not human."

Why does it feel like you are scolding me, rushing to the street... Xu Ping didn't know how to answer, he just put on a cold face and said: "Time is running out, please take me to see Zhenjun Zhong Kui as soon as possible."

Zhang Bold woke up instantly, slapped his head, and said: "Look at my memory, old cow and old horse, get out of the way quickly, and when Master Zhenjun loses his temper later, I won't speak for you."

"Ah yes yes..."

The bull head and the horse responded repeatedly, and got out of the way.

……

After the errand Zhang Bold took Xu Ping and Song Qingling away, the Niutou Mamian brothers ignored them, hurried down the mountain, changed their shapes, and plunged into Fengdu.

Zhong Kui is sitting in front of the Sifang desk, wearing a red official robe, with a ghost-slaying sword on the wall.

He was carefully looking at the file in his hand.

"It's been half a step and it's completely out of control. The next one will be Fengdu. I didn't expect Xu Ping to rescue Judge Cui. Sure enough, there was nothing wrong with forming a good relationship with him at that time."

Zhong Kui felt very lucky for his arrangement, but he didn't know if he would like to be his brother-in-law.

At this moment, he frowned, and the sound of small footsteps came from far to near.

"Master Zhenjun, Mr. Xu is here."

Hearing the voice from outside the door, True Monarch Zhong Kui was overjoyed, he was really thinking about something, this is a good sign.

He stepped forward quickly and opened the door himself.

Unexpectedly, just as the door was opened, a flash of sword light stabbed straight at his throat.

A black-clothed man outside the door, holding a cold bone sword, stabbed Zhong Kui's throat like a long snake coming out of a hole.

But what he never expected was that this bone sword was stuck at Zhong Kui's throat and could not be stored.

"Wow!"

Zhong Kui let out a strange cry, pinched the bone sword with one hand, and slapped the guest in black holding the bone sword violently with the other.

When Zhong Kui held the bone sword in his big hand, the man in black realized that he couldn't draw the bone sword out anyway, so he gave it up to save his life, escaped Zhong Kui's blow, and then quickly fled away.

At this moment, Zhang Bold brought Xu Ping and Song Qingling, and happened to come here, and saw the man in black abandoning his sword to save his life.

Without hesitation, Xu Ping threw a black thing from his waist, it was Dahei who was obsessed with eating and sleeping.
