C14 (2/2)
The group of ghosts moved around and quickly separated into two groups. The one on the left was big while the one on the right was small.
”Hehe, when I was alive, I was a criminal. I stole, raped, raped, gossiped, spread rumors, mischievous jokes. Those who did these things all go to the right side.”
The group of ghosts moved again. This time, they split into three parts, one on the left, one on the right. The left side was now the largest.
White Impermanence spoke to the group of people in the middle again, ”Hehe, those who do good deeds, donate money, build bridges, help others, help the poor, eat and stand at the front —”
Another group of dead ghosts stood in front, and now the dead spirits in the hall were divided into four groups. White Impermanence turned her head and looked at me, ”Hehe, milord, the ghosts have been divided. The ghosts in front are going to be reborn into a wealthy family, the people in the back are going to be reborn into a middle-class wealthy family, and the people on the left are going to be reborn into a low-class commoner family. As for those on the right, they would carefully inspect them later. Those who killed more than ten would be flogged a hundred times, thrown into a civilian's house, and those who killed more than a hundred would be thrown into the livestock they killed. Those who killed would be turned into pigs, dogs into dogs, and those who killed would be excluded … As for the thousand lives, the mortal world's murderers and Dajian's evil adulterers and villains, they are about to go to hell — ”
I nodded, leaned over and whispered, ”Is there a fish in the mud —”
White Impermanence shook her head, ”Hehe, milord, no matter how crafty these ghosts are in the mortal realm, they wouldn't lie in the mortal realm, so there's no mistake —”
I nodded my head again. This method isn't bad, the conditions for the selection are rather rough at first glance, but when I think about it carefully, the sequence of White Impermanence's words just now is pretty reasonable. From the looks of it, this method had been maintained for many years, and both the Black and White Impermanence were very familiar with it.
White Impermanence said, ”Hehe — Lord, now we can use Seal —”
I asked. ”How?”
White Impermanence made a throwing gesture. ”Just throw this seal into the air —”
I took out the plastic seal and threw it into the air. The golden light shot out in all directions, startling me, and it actually turned into a huge golden seal, floating in the air above the hall. The light illuminated the entire hall, and the word ”Hades” was written on each of the dead men's foreheads.
”This is the same as testing a qualified meat, you have to label it,” Wu Chengen said. This fellow had been under the chair for hundreds of years, yet he actually knew about the quarantine of meat products in the mortal world.
White Impermanence repeated what she just said to me loudly once more as she commanded the ghosts, ”The group of ghosts in front shall be reincarnated into a wealthy family. The group behind shall be reincarnated into a middle-class wealthy family while the group on the left shall be reincarnated into a low-class commoner family. For those on the right, those who killed more than ten would be whipped a hundred times and thrown into a civilian's house. Those who killed more than a hundred would be turned into animals that they killed, pigs or dogs, with the exception of those who killed … As for the thousand lives, and the people from the Yang World who were so evil that they killed people, go to hell — ”
He continued to shout, ”After disbanding, other than the ghosts that will go to hell, the rest of the ghosts will live in the ghost city of the Underworld. They will wait in line to be reborn, and if they are to be flogged, don't forget to take the Ghost Servant's whip before going back —”
As soon as he said that, the ghosts retreated like the tides, like lightning, like a gale. Once the ghosts left the hall, naturally there would be Ghost Soldier pressing down on them and some of them heading towards the city. When it came to reincarnate, he had to first be whipped by the Ghost Soldier and then drink Grandma Meng's soup. Afterwards, Grandma Meng would row these people across the river to be reincarnated.
He was sent to different levels of the Infernal Realm, with the highest being the eighteenth floor.
”What, aren't these damn ghosts going to be reincarnated?” I asked.
White Impermanence said, ”Hehe, the adults don't know, but all of the reincarnations are in order and slowly, and every ghost will have to live in the Underworld for three to five years before they can get reincarnated. Now that the Bridge of Helplessness is broken, the reincarnation speed is even slower, and the population pressure in the Underworld is getting heavier and heavier.
I nodded my head in silence. This was yet another matter of spending money.
The plastic seal flew back into my hand. I breathed a sigh of relief and sat down on the chair. I didn't expect that the huge distribution of 100,000 people would be settled in an hour.
I cupped my hands towards Black and White Impermanence. ”Xie, Faan, many thanks to you two today. Otherwise, I really wouldn't know what to do —”
White Impermanence also cupped her hands. ”Hehe, serving the Lord is something this little one should do.” Iron kid, flowing Hades. These Messengers really could not be underestimated in the future. They were not ordinary people.
”Lord Yama, I have been lying under this chair for hundreds of years. I also have some suggestions for the selection of this ghost,” Wu Chengen said.
”You say, you say,” we as civil servants should be happy to listen to the people's opinion. Moreover, this fellow had been sitting on this chair for hundreds of years. He had been looking at Hades and the other dead spirits everyday, so he should have some thoughts in his mind —
