One Four Five, Today's Underworld
Xun Daozi ignored how Jiufeng and others organized the tribesmen to enter the gate of the underworld. He led his disciples and mounted his horse into the gate and walked forward along a gray and foggy passage.
After a while, I came out of the passage. Under the dim sky, I could see at a glance the endless river of blood of Lethe River with no end or destination in sight. From time to time, some souls struggling and tumbling with the waves could be seen in the rolling waves.
The sky in the underworld is always so dark, even the occasional clouds are gray.
Elder Gourong, who came in first, and some Wu clan members who followed him were looking at the surrounding situation with confused expressions, and had some doubts about living here.
Seeing Xun Daozi and his entourage come out, Gurong immediately came over and bowed to Xun Daozi with cupped fists and said, "Taoist Master, I wonder if this is where the Taoist Master said he would place us?"
Xundaozi bowed his head and said in return: "Exactly!"
Jurong showed doubts on his face and said again: "This place is so desolate, even worse than where we lived before. How can our people survive?"
Xun Daozi smiled slightly and said: "Don't be busy. When all your clan members arrive, I will lead you to the resettlement place. I will not let the elders down!"
When Jurong heard this, he had no choice but to stand aside and wait.
Everyone was silently waiting for the Wu clan members behind them. Two people, wearing black clothes and black hats, were flying from a low altitude in the distance. They arrived in front of everyone and fell to the ground. A man with a dark face opened his mouth and shouted: "Wait a minute."
Who and why did he break into the underworld?"
The man next to him hurriedly grabbed the dark-faced man, raised his hands to Daoxun Daozi and said, "Please don't blame me, Master Taoist. My brother is just stunned and can't speak! If you offend me, please forgive me!" After saying this, he bowed.
When Xun Daozi heard this, he knew that this man was a smart man, and seeing that neither of them were from the Wu clan, he was a little curious as to when there would be monks other than the Wu clan on duty in the underworld, so he immediately said: "
Who are you and why are you stopping me?"
The man who spoke smartly raised his head. He was very handsome and handsome, and he said: "I and I are the patrol envoys of the underworld. My name is Zhu Gou; my brother's name is Hu Shan. We are responsible for patrolling this area of 200 square kilometers."
In this land, we will hunt down the wandering souls and send them to the judge's palace to be punished. I dare to ask why the chief and you are here? Where do you want to go?" As he spoke, he looked at Xun Daozi with bright eyes, neither humble nor arrogant.
Xun Daozi suddenly became fond of these hooks and said again: "We are monks from the ancient times, and we want to go to Yinshan Mountain to pay homage to Empress Pingxin!"
Zhu Gou and Hu Shan were shocked when they heard that the person who came wanted to go to Yinshan Mountain to pay homage to Empress Pingxin. Who among the officials in the underworld didn't know who Empress Pingxin was?
Your Majesty, your status is definitely not low, how can you be someone like me who can stop you at will? Although Hu Shan was a little stunned, he was not a scheming person. When he heard this, thinking about his previous attitude in speaking, he already had a cold war.
, breaking out in a cold sweat. He quickly lowered his head, stood aside respectfully, and let Zhu Gou deal with it.
When Zhu Gou heard this, he was frightened, but he did not lose his sense. He raised his eyes and saw people coming out of the passage behind them. He immediately raised his hands again and said: "Since the Taoist priest and you all want to pay homage to the empress, let my two brothers do it."
Can you please lead the way?"
Xundaozi agreed immediately.
Soon, all the Wu clan members had walked out of the passage. The last ones to come out were Jiu Feng and the giant leader. As soon as Jiu Feng came out and saw the dim world, his face immediately became extremely ugly. And as Jiu Feng walked out of the passage, the
The passage gradually became illusory and then disappeared into the void.
When Xun Daozi saw that everyone had arrived, he ignored Jiufeng's ugly expression and said directly to Zhu Gou: "Please ask the envoy to lead the way!"
Zhu Gou cupped his hands and turned around to lead the way with Hu Shan. Xun Daozi greeted Gourong and then left. Liu Ling, the three-eyed snow lion beast and others also followed quickly. Although Jiu Feng and others looked bad,
, but there was no attack. Seeing that Xun Daozi and others had already gone, they also hurriedly organized the tribesmen to follow behind.
The group of people, led by Zhu Gou and Hu Shan, crossed the Naihe Bridge and headed towards the Netherworld City. They saw pedestrians walking along the way, and when they saw a large group of people approaching from a distance, they all gave way.
It wasn't until he arrived not far from the city gate that he was stopped by a group of soldiers and asked. Zhu Gou quickly explained everyone's intention. The leader looked carefully and waited until he saw clearly the Xun Daozi in front and the three eyes following Xun Daozi.
Snow Lion Beast, this little leader-like man immediately walked quickly to Xun Daozi, clasped his fists and bowed deeply, and said respectfully: "See the Taoist, please allow me to lead the way for you!"
Xun Daozi smiled slightly and said, "Thank you!"
The little leader looked happy and said happily: "It's nothing. It's an honor for me to lead the way for the Taoist Master!" Then he turned back to his subordinates and shouted: "Why don't you go and report to Yan Jun that the Taoist Master is here?
Go, go quickly!"
The subordinates immediately separated out a few fast-legged ones and ran back to the city to report the news. Zhu Gou and Hu Shan were even more surprised when they saw the respectful look of the little leader towards Xun Daozi. Seeing this, they
Zhu Gou also turned around to face Xun Daozi and bowed and said: "Taoist Master, my two brothers will lead the way here for Taoist Master. Take care, Taoist Master, and we will leave!"
Xun Daozi had a good impression of this smart Zhu Gou, and saw that his qualifications were not bad. He didn't know why he was working here, so he said: "Thank you both for your guidance. If possible, you two can go to Yinshan to teach Taoism. After I finish
I have something to say to you!"
When Zhu Gou heard this, he didn't realize that he was in great luck. He immediately bowed to the ground and said, "Zhu Gou will go to the Yinshan Chanjiao Taoist Hall to wait for the Taoist Master!"
After hearing this, Xun Daozi nodded and said, "If you go, just say it was my order. Go ahead!"
Zhu Gou kowtowed a few times, stood up, picked up the black-faced Hu Shan who was still in a daze next to him, and hurried away. The little leader standing by was also a little envious.
Just as Xun Daozi was about to signal the little leader to lead the way, he heard the sound of rushing from the city. When he looked up, he saw a strong man wearing a black robe, a jade belt around his waist, a Chaoxuan crown on his head, and uneven boots.
He came in a hurry, followed closely by several people.
When the strong man came not far away, Xun Daozi saw that the strong man looked like Shi Yong, but compared with the nearly two feet he had seen before, he was much smaller. For some reason, the aura was different from before.
In comparison, there have been some inexplicable changes. This change is not very clear. It just feels like there is a hint of mystery, not the breath of witches. This breath is much better than the breath of Shi Yong's high-level witch back then.
While Xun Daozi was thinking about it, the sturdy man in black robe had already arrived in front of Xun Daozi, held his arms in his arms and said, "I didn't expect the Taoist Master to come to the underworld, but Shi Yong couldn't come far to welcome him. Please forgive me!"
When Xundaozi heard this, Jishou returned the greeting and said, "You're so polite, how dare you work to welcome me from afar?"
Shi Yong laughed and said: "The Taoist priest has been very kind to us, and I dare not forget it. I just never had the opportunity to repay you. Today, the Taoist priest came, but if you have an order, no one dares to disobey it! I don't know what will happen in the long run.
?”
Xun Daozi replied with a smile: "Clan Chief Shi Yong is too polite. I'm here first to see you and other fellow tribesmen here; secondly, I'm here to see you all!"
When Shi Yong heard Xun Daozi's words about sending his fellow clan members to come, he raised his head and looked behind Xun Daozi. At this glance, a burst of excitement flashed in his eyes. He briefly confessed to Xun Daozi and then walked behind Xun Daozi.
When Shi Yong took a step forward, the first thing he saw was Gourong. This meeting made him feel emotional, but Xun Daozi and several disciples ignored him. They stayed aside and let him wait to meet and exchange greetings.
After a while, Shi Yong realized that he was still ignoring Xun Daozi. He quickly pulled Gurong over to apologize to Xun Daozi and said: "Taoist, Shi Yong has offended many people. I have neglected Taoist. After seeing so many clan members,
I can't help myself, I still hope Daoist Master Haihan!" After saying that, he bowed deeply.
Xundaozi stretched out his hand to help Shi Yong up and said, "No need to be polite, I understand!"
Shi Yong turned around and said to the people who had followed him: "Hurry back to Yama Hall to prepare for the banquet. I want to greet the Taoist Master. Also hurry up and inform the other hall masters to come and see the Taoist Master!"
Xun Daozi stopped him and said, "I'd better lead the elders of Gurong and others to pay homage to Empress Pingxin and then reminisce with the clan leader, how about that?"
Shi Yong heard this and said, "Then I will go with the Taoist Priest!"
Immediately, the group quickly crossed the city and headed to Yinshan Pingxin Palace.
When they arrived at Pingxin Palace, they saw the palace door wide open. Pingxin, dressed in goose-yellow palace clothes, came out of the palace, followed by two delicate maids.
As soon as Xun Daozi saw him, he quickly stepped forward and said, "Xun Daozi, see you, my empress. May your empress live forever!"
Ping Xin also bowed slightly and returned the greeting: "Ping Xin has met Taoist friend, thank you for your great righteousness!"
Xun Daozi smiled slightly and said: "Xun Daozi has done so much, so why bother!" After saying that, he turned sideways and let go of Jurong and the other witch clansmen behind him.
When Gurong and other Wu tribe members saw Ping Xin, they immediately knelt down on the ground, saluted and worshiped, shouting: "Greetings to the Hou Tu Zu Wu!" They all moaned.
When Pingxin saw these tribesmen, his eyes showed the same true feelings, and he opened his mouth softly: "Get up, I am Pingxin now, and I will no longer be here. When you come here, I will arrange it properly so that you will not be wronged! Get up!"
Let's do it!" The voice was so friendly that it was as if it was in my ears. After saying this, the kneeling Wu clan members suddenly felt themselves being lifted up by an inexplicable force, and they all stood up.
Pingxin then said to Shi Yong, who was standing respectfully beside him: "Now that you are Lord Yama of the underworld, you will settle these clansmen. Take them down! I have something to say with Taoist friend Xun Daozi!"
Shi Yong bowed his head to Xun Daozi and said, "I will settle the clan members first and meet the Taoist leader later!"
Xun Daozi returned the gift and let him go.
Gurong and Jiufeng also bowed and thanked Xun Daozi, and followed Shi Yong away with their clansmen.
Xundaozi told Liu Ling and others to wait at the Yinshan Chanjiao Taoist Hall, and then followed Pingxin into Pingxin Palace.
After leaving Pingxin Palace, Xun Daozi went straight to the Yinshan Chanjiao Taoist Temple.
This Yinshan Chanjiao Dojo is a small palace. When Xun Daozi arrived, he had already seen his junior brother holding the crippled son waiting outside. Accompanying him was Izumoko who came after hearing the news.
In addition, there were two men known by Xun Daozi and a giant man. Several of Xun Daozi's disciples, the three-eyed snow lion beast, and the jade unicorn were also there. Zhu Gou and Hu Shan, who had been ordered by Xun Daozi, also stood aside respectfully.
When everyone saw Xun Daozi arriving, they hugged Zhanzi. Izumozi was the first to greet him, and the others waited respectfully at the place.
When the three brothers saw each other, Izumo and Zhanzi first saluted and greeted Xundaozi in return. Then there were two Chinese characters that Xundaozi recognized. One was Shi Ba, who was also like Shi Yong with a small body.
The other one was Hou Yi who was saved by Xun Daozi. The giant man also came to see the gift after being introduced by Shi Ba. After listening to Shi Ba's introduction, he realized that this giant man was the genius of his tribe.
