The three finally chose to walk.

After walking for ten kilometers, the legendary Hall of Yama was in front of him.

There are ghostly scenes everywhere, but it is strange that no ghosts have been seen along the way.

"Of course not, the underworld is also orderly. According to the information obtained from Black and White Wuchang, the order here is even stricter and stricter than the real society. You can think of it as a prison in the real society. During the wind-off time, no ghosts will appear casually."

Su Qinghe looked at the hall full of ghosts, frowned and said: "But to be honest, this word is really ugly!"

The door of the main hall is made of unknown material. It looks like wood, but the surface has a metallic luster. The door is full of cracks, which looks very old, and there are even many cracks and gullies. It seems that it was deliberately made to show its old atmosphere... Right above the door, there is a plaque.

On the plaque, there are three extremely ugly characters.

Yama Hall.

Xu Xiaolou looked at the three words, nodded and agreed: "Well, if I didn't know that this is the Temple of Yama, I would even mistake it for the Temple of Mencao..."

Words are ugly.

But the aura emanating from this plaque is extremely powerful.

……

In the day of Taoli.

In front of the lotus platform.

There is an extra table here.

On the table, there are pens, inks, papers and inkstones, and the Four Treasures of the Study are valuable magical instruments at first glance.

The man in red picked up the brush and wrote a series of characters on the rice paper in one breath.

Close the pen.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

Di Ting, who looked like a puppy in appearance, jumped onto the table.

Carefully avoiding the piece of rice paper, leaning closer to his face, he only glanced at it, and then made a disgusted expression.

"Listen, you want to be beaten again, don't you?"

The man in red looked over with gentle eyes.

Di Ting immediately bristled all over his hair, raised his face, showed an intoxicated expression, and barked twice.

"Hahaha, what a pug, that's right, this line of characters is absolutely worthy of the four words "dragon and snake."

……

Yama Hall.

Xu Xiaolou pushed open the door and walked in first.

On the inside of the door, like an ancient county government office, stood two guards—they held a wooden stick as tall as a person in their hands.

One end of the wooden stick is held with both hands, placed under the chin.The other end is stationed on the ground.

Their expressions are very serious, so serious... even a little dull.

"What do they mean? Pretending not to see us?" ——Xu Xiaolou passed by two Yin soldiers, and saw that the other party was motionless, not even blinking.Then communicate with Su Qinghe with spiritual consciousness.

Su Qinghe was expressionless, but his brain was spinning rapidly.

"I don't know, just keep going inside."

……

The three met many Yin soldiers along the way.

They may be patrolling with various weapons in their hands.

Or you are driving your soul in a certain direction.

"Ah, I just stole a few hundred dollars from my parents before I was alive, so I will be reincarnated as a pig to be slaughtered in my next life? It's too miserable, I don't accept it!" - one of the oppressed souls roared.

"Heh heh heh, stealing a few dollars is also stealing. It's not a matter of much. It's a matter of principle. Also, what happened to being a pig? Just now, there was another one who was sentenced by Lord Hades for peeking at his sister taking a shower. Go be a maggot in the toilet... What? Shall I intercede with Lord Hades? Let the old man change it, and you can also be a maggot." —— Said the Yin soldier who was holding him.

"It's okay, it's good to be a pig, it's good to be a pig."

……

Still the same as before, the group of Yin soldiers, including the spirits being held, seemed to be unable to see the three of Xu Xiaolou, allowing the three of them to pass by.

Xu Xiaolou tried to reach out and touch them.

However, he was surprised to find that his arm went directly through their bodies.

He withdrew his arm and said in surprise, "This...what's going on?!"

Su Qinghe frowned, not knowing the answer to this question.

After a while, when the three of them didn't know what to do next, suddenly, at the gate of the main hall in front of them, an old man with a stooped figure ran over.

……

The old man held a brush in his left hand and a book in the other.

He was wearing black and blue official attire, with a very attentive expression.

"Oh, you guys are here. I've been waiting for you for a long time." After the old man came to Xu Xiaolou, the friendly smile on his face became even more intense.

Xu Xiaolou was confused by the other party's enthusiasm and attentiveness, and subconsciously asked, "That... who are you? Do we know you?"

"I don't know, I don't know."

The man's hand holding the brush was waving in the air. The strange thing was that there was ink on the brush, but the ink on the tip of the pen didn't drop a drop following his waving movement.

"Let me introduce myself first. I am the judge of the underworld. You can just call me the judge. Come, come, follow me quickly. Lord Hades has been waiting for you for a long time."

After finishing speaking, the old man, oh, no, the judge didn't wait for the three of Xu Xiaolou to react, he waved his hand, turned around and ran towards the main hall.

"What's the situation?" Xu Xiaolou was confused, and asked Su Qinghe with his spiritual sense.

Su Qinghe shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either—in fact, he had a rough guess in his mind.

Combining the previous encounters on Huangquan Road, he speculated that the whereabouts of the three of them must have been followed by a certain important person, and then, it is very likely that all the strange things they encountered now should be related to that important person...

But, is that big man Ksitigarbha or King Yama?
This is up for debate.

……

Enter the gate of the main hall.

Standing in two rows were Yin soldiers with meticulous expressions.

The judge hurriedly walked towards the innermost part of the main hall.

In the hall, facing the direction of the gate, there is a desk.

To Xu Xiaolou's surprise, that desk was exactly the same as the ones he saw in the real world. It was a dark-brown solid wood desk with folders on it, and it was erected for placing books. The bookshelf... If the bookshelf is replaced by a computer, this is more like a desk in a corporate manager's office...

Could it be that King Yama usually works like this?
Fuck, this is too...

After thinking for a while, Xu Xiaolou, who couldn't think of a specific word to describe the scene at hand, sighed faintly.

"It should be advancing with the times."

At this time, Yu Xiaoqi uttered the word for him in his spiritual consciousness.

"According to the information I got from Black and White Wuchang, electronic equipment cannot be used in the underworld, but the souls who come here to report every day can bring changes to the world on the ground. King Yama wants to keep pace with the times. Come in, throw away the original old tables and chairs, and replace it with this one..."

"Oh, so that's what it is."
