Chapter 373
Before he knew it, Song You followed the national teacher and walked through this ghost town.

The ghost city is only inside Yeshan, and it is about the same size as Yuan'an City, but there are also spaces in several hills around Yeshan, and there is even a huge hollow fault underground, which is part of the ghost city.At this time, Song You followed the national teacher to go deep underground.

"I read in the book that the national teacher seems to divide ghosts into five classes?" Song You asked.

"It's only temporary, to facilitate the management of the ghost city, and it needs to be improved in the future." The national teacher replied, "But all the ghosts who come here will be examined for good and evil. Under the mirror of karma, there are no lies, so they are divided into five classes."

"How to divide?"

"If you are a perfect person, with outstanding virtues, and you have never done anything wrong on purpose when you grow up, you will be the first class, and you can be an official in a ghost city according to your ability." The national teacher said, "If you have made small mistakes and small losses, but you can't say Those who have committed crimes and have not caused serious consequences are second-class, and they can work as subordinates in ghost towns. If they have committed crimes, they are third-class. Those whose crimes have not been settled in the world must be settled here."

"What about four or five?"

"If you have committed a heinous crime, a big treacherous person, but the crime does not lead to death, you will be classified as the fourth class, and you will have to make atonement and be punished in the ghost town." This is the last class of ghosts. The fifth class ghosts are also dealt with differently according to the magnitude of the crime. If they are heinous and not worth dying for, or if they have committed a capital crime but did not end their life, even if they come here and die once, they will still You have to die again, burned alive, and wiped out in ashes. If you have committed a capital crime but have already settled it before you were alive, you will either be moved to the fourth or third class depending on the situation, or continue to be wiped out in ashes."

"Is it to see if you have regrets?"

"This is one of the references."

"I see."

Song You just nodded and didn't make much comments, but he felt very strange in his heart.

"The ghost city was first built, and special things are done at special times. If it is a good person, we will be extra tolerant, and if it is an evil ghost, we will be extra strict." The national teacher paused, "It's just temporary."

"Isn't that hell over there?"

Song You turned his head to look at a passage next to him, already feeling the temperature coming from there.

"Hellfire."

The national teacher replied very calmly without concealing: "Nowadays, among the ghost prisons, only the Fire Prison has been built, and it is also the most commonly used ghost prison. Any ghost with unfinished crimes in the world will go to the Fire Prison. Some only It is enough to be tortured on the edge, some are to be tortured in the middle, and some are to be burned to death here."

"Those dreaming ghosts..."

"Either you will be tortured here, or your soul will be scattered here." The national teacher said.

"Can I go and have a look?"

"The ghost prison is very hot, and the edge is also very hot. Besides, the ghosts are crying and howling, and it's very noisy." The national teacher said, and lowered his head with a smile, and looked at the Sanhua cat, who also raised his head to look at him, "What's more, the one over there Fellow Taoists and poor Taoists can see the scene, but Empress Sanhua can't."

"Then ask Empress Sanhua to wait for me here."

Song You also lowered his head and said to his cat.

Empress Sanhua's expression froze immediately, and her eyes widened a little, but she immediately sat down, sitting upright, her tail also circled around her little feet, and she still stared at him with her head raised high.

"Miss Sanhua, please don't run around."

After finishing speaking, Song You looked at the national teacher with a smile: "I don't know that the national teacher is afraid of the flames and high temperature?"

"The poor Taoist doesn't have the skills of a fellow Taoist, so I'm afraid."

"It's okay."

Song You waved his hand——

Immediately, a ray of light enveloped himself and the national teacher's whole body, and he felt a burst of coolness in the radiance, and he could not feel the temperature coming from there.

"Let's go."

Song You smiled and looked at the national teacher.

Seeing that he didn't give him a chance to refuse at all, the national teacher had already prepared everything, and there was a tendency to see him, so he had no choice but to smile and walked forward.

"Then please."

"Trouble."

"How dare you call it troublesome? Speaking of which, although Pindao built this fiery hell in imitation of folklore, it was just a decision. Pindao has low magic power and weak body, no matter how he arranges flames, drives away and binds evil spirits, and supervises them to be tortured." , It’s not what Pindao is doing. Pindao has only seen the hell of fire from a distance. Since the flames rose, mortals can only walk halfway through this passage, and Pindao can at most see the flames over there , I have never seen the scene in the Fire Prison." The national teacher walked in front, and said as he walked, "So it is the poor Taoist who has the honor of fellow Taoists."

The two walked further and further away while talking.

The three-coloured cat was left sitting in the same place, with a well-behaved posture, its tail still wrapped around its little feet, staring at the back of the Taoist priest who left, and then looked away when it was out of sight, raised one paw, lowered its head to lick, licked twice and then used its paw He rubbed his face wildly, and at the same time, he glanced at a Taoist priest and an old man in cloth robes who were also left behind.

"..."

Empress Sanhua sniffed.

……

The passage was not long, and there was already a fire in front of it.

Due to the rise in temperature, the two yin officials who had been waiting for use by the national teacher had stopped and dared not go forward, but Song You and the national teacher did not feel the heat at all.

Body is still cool.

until you reach the end of the passage.

The eyes are already occupied by fire, and the eyes are also filled with fire.

The space in front is not too big, just look at the bottom, it looks like a pool, if it is sunken, if it is connected to the surroundings and the top, it looks like a stove, filled with flames.

Only the flames flickered on the periphery, while the flames were dense in the middle, and only the dazzlingly bright flames could be seen.The ground and walls are all engraved with fire formation runes in golden handwriting, and the stone pillars on the ground are wrapped with iron chains, which should be used to bind ghosts, and they are all engraved with runes.

"call……"

Flames blew past the two of them.

There are ghosts inside who are being punished, and the howls are loud.

Song You squinted his eyes, turned his head, and didn't look at the tortured ghost, but at the runes around and on the ground.

It is a relatively simple fire-gathering circle. Of course, in this year, many people don't know it anymore, and those who can arrange it can be regarded as a master of cultivation.In addition, there are several other magic circles, which provide functions such as confinement and reinforcement for this place. It seems that the national teacher has masters under his command.

Quietly, the eyes flashed again.

Sure enough, under these magic circles, there is another hidden magic circle.

It's a pity that it's only used for concealment.

It is similar to Song You's Dongzang spiritual power.

"The national teacher has capable people under his command."

"Da Yan is so big, there are many strange people and strangers. Pindao took advantage of the position of the national teacher and the convenience of the court, and he also met many high-level people." The national teacher and Song You have reached the edge of the fire hell, The flames that filled the prison almost surrounded him, but he didn't feel hot at all, "Pimped Dao doesn't have the ability of fellow Taoists. If Poverty Dao doesn't do anything by himself, he can only achieve great things with strength."

"Under these formations, there is another formation. I don't know what it is used for?"

"Fellow daoists have sharp eyes." The national teacher was not in a hurry, "It's just a magic circle used to restrain the aura and hide the movement. First, I'm afraid that the aura in the fire will disperse and cause great trouble to the innocent ghosts outside. I am afraid that the Yin ghosts who are tortured here will howl terribly, piercing the sky, and scare the little ghosts outside, so I also restrain my aura in the third time, so as not to be noticed by the ghosts and ghosts outside and cause unnecessary trouble."

"rational……"

Song You nodded.

The national teacher seemed to be a newcomer, looked around, and then said: "Fellow Daoist, what else do you want to see?"

"Let's go back."

"There are not many ghosts being tortured today, and the few ghosts are hard bones, and the crimes they committed are not serious. They are only burned on the periphery, which is really nothing to see." The national teacher said and followed him back.

The fire light around him slowly dimmed, replaced by pale blue will-o'-the-wisps, feeling dim and cold.

The luster on the national teacher's body also dissipated.

Sanhua Mao still sat obediently on the spot, staring up at the Taoist, while the two people around him were out of breath, wiped their sweat, and looked at Guoshi and Song You with relief.

"Is Mistress Sanhua obediently waiting for me here?" Song You lowered his head and asked her.

"!"

The three-flowered cat tilted its head and looked at him, but did not speak.

This cat is always like this, sometimes it talks a lot, asks many questions, and sometimes it doesn't say a word, expecting you to communicate with her with your eyes, who knows what the cat is thinking?

"Fellow Taoist walked for one night and half a day before arriving at Yeshan Mountain. Now that I have seen it for so long, I am tired after thinking about it. Although this ghost city was built by the boundary of the world, it is used for transition, but it is too ghostly and poor. On weekdays, I would not dare to spend the night inside, but fellow daoists are very powerful, and the cats and horses around us are all extraordinary things, so you don’t have to be afraid if you think about it.” The national teacher said to them, “It’s up to fellow daoists to choose. Find a place to live in the ghost town so that fellow daoists can go shopping conveniently, and you can also arrange tents for fellow daoists outside Yeshan, under the sun and the moon, so that fellow daoists can rest."

"..."

It can be heard that the foreign teacher is confident and calm, paving the way for his two choices.

Clearly not afraid of him being here.

There is a feeling of a bright card.

However, Song You still said: "When I travel around the world with Empress Sanhua, most of the time, I don't want to do anything else, I just want to find something strange, something new, something I have never seen before. When you tell about your own life, you have something to say that will amaze them."

"it is good!"

Without hesitation, the national teacher agreed to come down and follow the instructions of the Yin official to give Song You the residence of a mansion that had been prepared.

"Pindao will wait until tomorrow, and then come to visit the ghost city with fellow daoists, and discuss the planning of the ghost town with fellow daoists. If you have any needs, you can tell the poor daoist and Yin officials." After the national teacher finished speaking, he lowered his head and smiled. Looking at the cat at Song You's feet, "Empress Sanhua, if you want anything, you can also tell Pindao."

"Do you have glutinous glutinous rice soup here?"

"Mash glutinous rice?"

"Mash! Soup soup!"

"Have!"

"Add more sugar!"

"it is good……"

The national teacher's smile became brighter and brighter.

Immediately, he accompanied the Yin official to send Song You to his residence, and ordered the Yin official to tell them that Song You was a distinguished guest. As long as he was in the ghost city, he could freely enter and leave anywhere. It was time to come to him and discuss with him about the ghost city before leaving.

Song You stopped where he was, with a horse on one side and a cat on the other.

The official mansion behind him basically imitated the human system, the specifications were not low, and it looked very dignified, but there were will-o'-the-wisps lighting everywhere, pale green and blue in the pale, it felt eerie.

Looking at it this way, it really looks like the underworld in the folklore of the outside world at this time.

Song You turned around and walked in.

This is the place where ghosts and wild ghosts built by the national teacher before the underworld was completed, and it is also the predecessor of the underworld. The ghost king in this mansion is likely to be the ghost king of the underworld in the future, the first official residence in the underworld in the future , may also look like this.It's just that they didn't expect Song You to live in the ghost king before he was born.

It is also a good experience.

It's just that Song You had a premonition——

I may not find anything here.

"Taoist priest……"

"what happened?"

"It stinks in here."

"Underground..."

Song You knew that cats were very sensitive to smells, and they were one of the rare animals that cared a lot about smells, so he said, "Mistress Sanhua, please be patient, she won't be here for a few more days."

"Long time!"

"Please, Empress Sanhua..."

"Ok!"

As the god of cats, Empress Sanhua is the most irresistible person's request.

It's just that she followed the Taoist to the back room, looked up at the Taoist, and couldn't help saying, "There are no mice here!"

"I also ask Empress Sanhua to overcome it a little bit." Song You thought it was because she had lost the fun.

"But it also smells like a rat!"

"Huh? A rat?"

"It's just a mouse that can't finish eating!"

"Oh, rotten rat."

"rot!"

"Why rats? Isn't something else rotten?"

"A stinky mouse is different from other things. A dead cat is not the same as a dead mouse." Mistress Sanhua looked at him seriously, "It's not the same when a bird stinks."

"Makes sense."

"Miss Sanhua has a very good nose."

"Miss Sanhua is very capable, especially when dealing with mice." Song You complimented, and then asked, "Where did you get this smell?"

"There are many places, even on the road!" Mistress Sanhua thought for a while, "There are the most places to burn fire!"

"Can you find anything?"

"Miss Sanhua has searched, but can't find anything." Mistress Sanhua paused, and said as she walked, "It just looks like a stinky mouse, but it's not a stinky mouse. It smells so bad that you can't eat it."

"So this is ah."

No wonder the two were out of breath.

It should be that Mistress Sanhua suddenly became lively and active after she left. Maybe she even came to parkour in the ghost town for a while. The two of them were afraid that Mistress Sanhua would get angry if she lost, so they hurried I ran to catch up, but it's not so easy for people to chase cats.

Song You stayed temporarily in the ghost town.

There is a lot of yin and ghosts here, but after all, it is a human world, and the yin and ghosts have no effect on him, but everything is as usual.

In the next few days, the national teacher came to look for him every day.

Song You also followed him with Empress Sanhua, and visited almost all the places that had been built and those that hadn't been built in the ghost town, even those places that had not been included in the plan.Every day I talked with the national teacher about the ghost city, not only listening to him talk about the planning and vision of the ghost city and even the underworld in the future, but also listening to him talk about the helplessness of the heavenly palace and the Buddhist gate, as well as the lack of energy, and I also talked about the way of heaven with him. Evolution and the hearts of the people in the world, and sometimes Taoists also give their own suggestions, and both sides benefit a lot.

At least Song You's knowledge has increased a lot.

If the ghost city is really used as the prototype to condense the underworld, Song You will be the first to experience the rumors about the underworld that will be circulated in the world for thousands of years in the future.

Living beings become ghosts after death, living in ghost towns, and the difference between living beings and the underworld can be seen in his eyes.

The journey is a practice, and this trip is also considered rare.
