Chapter 42: Judge Cui
That said, Zhang Zhenren heard me say just down to do the job, not from worry to joy, pulling me to the side of the left to see the right to see, a moment to say that I am thin, a moment to say that I am black, happy to taste.
Although Zhang Zhenren said are some irrelevant gossip, but let me feel a lot, because this is loved ones.
At this time, the ghost messenger who sent me to the side said with a smile, "Superintendent, you guys have a good talk, I'll go back to the city gates to do my business."
I said, "This time thank you old brother, I don't know old brother's last name, wait for me to go up and burn some paper money for old brother gold platinum to."
Ghosts scared lightly, busy said this is part of the work, which can not want to brother's benefits ah, said in the end there is a kind of righteousness, the iron face of selflessness of the atmosphere.
After sending away the ghosts, Zhang Zhenren asked me to come down is to do what, I put this period of time encountered things with him, told him that I will go to find Judge Cui, asked him whether there is a way.
How do you know Zhang Zhenren easily laughed: "Cui fat man ah, for the teacher and he is familiar with very miles, the last time to play mahjong cheat also owes me tens of thousands of medieval, just I want to go to urge him to return the money it, later I will take you together to find him."
"What, playing mahjong? Still owe you money?" I immediately felt that Zhang Zhenren's image of a serious and immortal in my heart was instantly crushed, and my integrity was shattered to the ground. I thought, "This is not scientific? I've never heard of mahjong in hell.
"What's wrong with that, is it only allowed to eat, drink, whore and gamble on earth, can't we play mahjong in the netherworld?" Zhang Zhenren rolled his eyes and said.
"No, just ...... how this netherworld also has mahjong ah?" I asked curiously.
Zhang Zhenren said, "Long ago, I do not know which little ghost lack of moral relatives, even this thing to burn to the bottom, causing the people below all play addicted to, huh ......"
Crouching handful, my entire three views destroyed, would like to ask him if there is a cell phone below. But the words to the edge of the mouth did not ask down, because I did see many people burning paper made cell phone to the people below, but we walked all the way down there seems to have never seen the signal tower.
At this time, Zhang Zhenren took a glance at the Han Dao behind me, looked at me strange smile: "This girl is the apprentice daughter-in-law, right? You kid strange can ah, found a look so watery girl."
I was instantly thunderstruck by him, hastily explained that this is just a friend I just met, how can it be your disciple daughter-in-law.
However, how could Zhang Zhenren believe my words, patted my shoulder and said that it was just a matter of time, then praised me for a few sentences, then walked over to Han Duo and chatted. Finally, from his pocket took out a white jade bracelet, said to give Han Dao this future apprentice daughter-in-law, as a gift.
Han Dao is very happy, said to take this bracelet, I said you are not afraid to return to the sun, hands wearing a paper bracelet?
This can be Han Dao scared lightly, froze for a moment. Zhang Zhenren slapped on my head, gasping: "I will send that thing? I tell you, this thing is still the same even in the Yang world."
After Han Dao received the bracelet, his mouth was very sweet, making Zhang Zhenren happy.
Soon after, Zhang Zhenren said down below can not be delayed for too long, so after chatting for a while to take us to find that Cui magistrate.
That said, the magistrate Cui's government office is not far from Zhang Zhenren's government office, after a street or two to the.
There is no need to inform, there is Zhang Zhenren, he led us directly into the inner hall. The inner hall has a high platform, high platform sitting on a person, although his body round body fat, but the face is fierce, wearing a black robe, wearing a top of the Ming Dynasty model of the official hat, a look will know that he should be an official in the hell.
Below the platform, there are two columns of ghosts, the top two are very familiar. See one of them wearing a white robe, face white as powder, wearing a white high hat, high hat above, written four words: "peace in the world". He held a white wailing stick, his whole body was white, only the long tongue that he spat out was blood red, he looked extremely horrible, his tongue hanging under his chin was five or six inches long, no different from a hanged ghost; while the other one was the opposite of that white man, his whole body was black. He was holding a black soul chain in his hand, full of fierce face, he was also wearing a tall hat, only this hat and the clothes on the body is the same as the black, the hat is also written with four big words - "a glimpse of fortune"!
To see clearly after the two looks, I immediately froze, crouching handful, this is not the last time to catch my black and white two people?
To know that last time I played them ah, lied to them that there are airplanes in the sky, and now I met here, they will not find me revenge right?
Just when I was worried and scared, the fat man on the high platform above spoke up, "Old man Zhang, why did you come to my little temple, tell you, if you came to collect a debt you came for nothing, I have no hair left on my hands."
Zhang Zhenren said: "go, as much as with me to play bad not, you will still have no money, who to cheat ah. However, today I come not to urge you to pay back the money, but something to seek your help."
Hearing this, Judge Cui suddenly froze for a moment, then laughed: "Help ah, huh, can, but our account is not also have to clear up is ah."
"I knew that you shameless one would come with me for this!" Zhang Zhenren spat.
Judge Cui laughed, and then told the people below to go down first, and then there were only the four of us in the hall.
Judge Cui walked down to the high hall, and Zhang Zhenren introduced us one by one, then told him what we had asked for. Judge Cui nodded and said that it was a small matter, and that he would go and check it out for us, and told us to have some tea and stay for a while.
With that, he returned to the high hall and picked up a thick book and checked it out.
And at this time, a subordinate served tea and handed it to us. When I opened it, I was almost shocked, because this tea was not tea at all, but blood.
This reminded me of my first encounter with Old Hu and the others before, when we encountered the weasels that were acting as monsters and gave us human flesh and other things to eat. Now that I saw this kind of thing again, I was instantly nauseated.
When Han Dao saw that I was so scared that my face turned white, she asked me why, and I told her to never open the lid of the teacup, because the tea inside was Enemy Blood Tea.
Zhang Zhenren picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said: "Don't be afraid, this is a good thing, called the Blood Tip Springs of the Underworld, in this hell can be regarded as the best, ordinary people can't drink it. Don't be afraid, it's called the Blood Tip Underworld Spring, and it's the best in this hell.
I said, this is all blood, can still drink?
Mr. Zhang said, "This tea is made from the blood of the tongues of those evil spirits, so it is called Blood Tip Underworld Spring. Like those in the yang world mouth is wrong, lies and lies, talk a lot of nonsense of the woman, these people down into the hell will have to suffer from that pull out the tongue, punishment of their mouth thing is wrong punishment, as the saying is that in life talk a lot of chewing on the tongue, after death pull out the tongue of the ghosts to chew back, is exactly this reason."
Hearing this, Han Dao and I glanced at each other, and both couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. I can't imagine that if you talk nonsense in the world, you will also be punished by this kind of punishment in hell, it's really horrible, but do you know that there are any people who won't say a few words that are not from their heart? Perhaps this is the karma of the Yang Shi mouth affairs and chewing on the tongue.
Zhang Zhenren said, "Han Dao not drink can, but you must drink drink this tea, because drink this bowl of blood tea, you will carry the hell yin qi, in the future you walk in the netherworld, there will be no evil ghosts to find you trouble."
Crap handful, this is not today do not drink also have to drink? So I picked up the teacup, only to feel cold and bone-chilling to the touch, uncovered the tea lid, gusts of blood and scarlet stench came, before I even got a mouthful of it made me retch.
However, seeing Zhang Zhenren's eyes staring at me, I could only bite my teeth and close my eyes to drink the blood tea in my hand. Then, I only felt like a stream of ice spring flowing down my throat, and I couldn't help but shiver all over.
When Zhang Zhenren saw that I drank the blood tea, he smiled happily and said that drinking this tea would help in the future.
And at this time, Judge Cui also checked it out, and he told me that this person named Fu Wenjian was still alive, and still had a few years of Yang life left.
Upon hearing this, Han Dao and I both froze, thinking that this guy really isn't dead. It seems that either Fang Jiuliu was lying to us, or Fu Wenjian intentionally faked his death to fool everyone.
I immediately asked Judge Cui why Fu Wenjian had such a long life after doing so many evil deeds, and whether we could just tick off his name.
Judge Cui shook his head directly into a rattle drum, saying that life and death have their own destinies, which are all fixed, and how can we just detain people's souls, which is going to be a big deal. However, he told me that originally Fu Wenjian could live to be a hundred years old, but because he had done too much evil, his life expectancy on the book of life and death had been reduced again and again, and now he only had a life expectancy of 50 years old, which made him a short-lived person.
Although I can not let Cui judge directly detain his soul, but to the hell of the task is finally completed, thanked the judge after Cui, Zhang Zhenren handed me a few words, mainly to let me do more good and accumulate more virtue and so on, there is to tell me, back to the sun, if it is passing through the gate of the ghosts can be very attentive to, do not turn back, straight ahead on the line. If you turn back halfway, you will not be able to return.
I nodded my head and memorized what Zhang Zhenren said.
