C14 (1/2)
Not allowing us to chat, all the doors of the hall opened and the transparent ghosts entered in a line. This is good in the mythical world, some things can be done even without automation. Let's talk about opening the door just now. If it was installed with automatic opening equipment, it would be very expensive and expensive. In the mythical world, the Black Wuchang shouted and opened the door for himself. This was a conserved society.
However, I am still a bit worried. Although this hall is large, it can't stand up to hundreds of thousands of people. The intelligence of the masses are truly limitless. I didn't expect that the bodies of these damned ghosts would be destroyed and the souls they left behind would be able to merge together with one another. A fatty is standing there with three thin fellows standing side by side in his body. It didn't take long before the hall was filled with people. It was unknown how many were stacked on top of each other's bodies. My eyes turned dizzy when I saw this, but no matter what, these hundred thousand people finally filled the main hall.
White Impermanence saw that the ghosts was already standing still, then laughed loudly, ”Hehe, I know what you guys did the best when you were alive.” He looked down at the restless dead spirits below, then continued, ”If you don't know, then look up at the ceiling!”
I sat in my chair and looked up at the roof of the hall, but all I could see was darkness.
I pouted at Wu Chengen, ”Wu, what's on the roof that Xie is talking about?”
Wu Chengen smiled mysteriously, ”Didn't you notice that there is something missing in this hall?”
I shook my head. ”No, but there's an extra chair —” I pointed to the spot left behind for the Bodhisattva Ksitigarbha with my thumb. Depressed, even though the person who held court from behind the curtain isn't here, I still feel as disgusted as if I've swallowed a live fly.
Wu Chengen rolled his eyes at me, while Mu Ge'er also curled his lips, ”Hmph, petty —”
After Wu Chengen finished his suspense, he came over and said softly, ”It's the Book of Life and Death —”
I smacked my head. Yes, this case of Yama King is a book with a book about life and death in it. How could he not have such an important item?
”Why is the Book of Life and Death on the roof?” I asked.
”Sigh, this is a long story,” Wu Chengen said. ”Last time, when the Heavenly Court caused an uproar, the flood released into the Underworld, flooding the entire Netherworld and even the Hades Palace. ”The Book of Life and Death was flooded as well, I almost couldn't get it out …”
F * ck, it's the Heavenly Court again? F * ck, I can't bully a subordinate like this, right?
Wu Chengen continued, ”The previous King of Hell had begged the Nine Heavens to carve the Book of Life and Death on the roof, and in the end, it also made it easy for every ghost to find their own names. Thus, this method has always been passed down …”
I looked at the dark roof in astonishment. ”Where are the names of the billions of people?”
Wu Chengen nodded his head, ”Not only are the names written on it, even the things that they did in the world were written on it. A certain month and a certain month stole a chicken, and a certain month and I will help the old granny to cross the road.”
”Then how many words should I write on it? Each word is probably smaller than an ant's —” Mu Ge'er interrupted.
”It's not, it's not,” Wu Chengen said as if he was offering a treasure, ”The Book of Life and Death is a dao of heaven and earth, it's very mysterious, under the control of the divine power of the Nine Heavens, those ghosts, when they look up at the ceiling, can only see their own name and deeds, can't see other people's —”
Wow, this Nine-Layered Heavens is really wide. It makes the Book of Life and Death look like a super host. Everyone has their own monitor when they look up.
I moved closer. ”Wu, you are experienced and knowledgeable, what exactly is this Nine Heavens?”
Wu Chengen was startled for a moment, and then said, ”This Ninth Heaven is not a person, nor is it a god. Frankly speaking, it's about nature, about harmony, about principle. If you follow the path of nature, harmonious development, and reason, and follow the path of the nine heavens, if you don't follow the wishes of the nine heavens, then … It was just like White Impermanence said.
F * ck, after a long time, it's not natural for me to be a god, but it's unnatural. It's unreasonable that such an illusory and intangible Nine Layered Heavens came up with some sort of divine lightning to strike me.
”Actually, it's not bad too. This way, the deities can no longer do whatever they want, and will no longer breed corruption —” Wu Chengen spoke good words on behalf of the Ninth Heaven. I think about it, that's true. With that Divine Lightning of the Nine Tribulations scurrying around in the sky, any deity would have to think about the consequences when they act recklessly.
At this moment, White Impermanence said to the dead ghosts, ”Hehe, alright, you guys watch carefully. Now, just follow my instructions —”
ghosts was very obedient, standing up straight.
”Hee hee, those that were alive, stand on the left side of the hall, kill flies, mosquitoes, bugs, rats, and so on, except for insects —”
