Taboos in the Underworld: Starting from being paid a lot of money to beg for a child

"She is neither a prisoner nor a sinner. Come and see her own thoughts. You are using her emotions against her will without her knowledge. I help her regain her sanity just to tell her the truth." I said neither humble nor haughty.

The judge nodded and said: "Well, it's your character, but I remind you that you still have two days to think it over carefully. Wei Lin should have told you before that within three days, you must take the female ghost Yu Bingqing with you Come here, otherwise..."

"How?" I interrupted directly. I don't like to hear what must be done. This matter is not decided by me. If Yu Bingqing doesn't want to come, can I still force her to come?

"If not, the underworld will take coercive measures." The judge said.

"Well, thank you, Mr. Judge, for your advice. I'll take my leave first." I saluted.

The judge nodded, raised his hand, and the door outside opened again, still shining with golden light. I turned and walked out the door.

Wei Lin did not leave, but waited for me at the door. When he saw me coming out, he said: "Liu Dian, the judge should have told you where you are going now."

I looked at Wei Lin and said, "Do you have to follow me wherever I go?"

Wei Lin waved his hand and said, "No, no, no, I don't have that much free time, but my time is limited. I remind you to come back on time."

"Well, thanks." I took out the wooden sign, casually marked out the passage to the mercenary soul camp, and got in without looking back.

This is not the first time I have come to the Merchant Soul Camp. Coming here now feels like returning to my own home. Moreover, the guards under the archway have basically gotten to know each other. After seeing me, they no longer came up to question me, and they didn’t even bother to talk to me. Got it.

I returned to Lu Gaowei's thatched house with ease. Shen Wang and Wu Yujun were sitting at the table, and Yu Bingqing's paintings were placed on the table. Bi Yunmeng was grinding something in front of another small table.

"Mengmeng, are you back from collecting medicine?" I asked doubtfully.

Bi Yunmeng shook his head and said, "I haven't gone yet. If you wait a little longer, it should be almost time."

In the painting, Yu Bingqing is still concentrating on clearing away the yin energy mixed with her mind. I didn't disturb her, I just took a brief look and then got out of the painting.

After chatting for a while, Bi Yunmeng stood up and said that he was going to the underworld to collect medicine. I nodded, "Is that medicine easy to pick? Can I go with you?"

Bi Yunmeng thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then you can go with me. Shen Wang and the others don't have to protect the law."

Shen Wang nodded and said, "Okay."

"Do herbal medicines still need a guardian?" I asked doubtfully.

Bi Yunmeng smiled, drew a passage and said: "Of course, especially this time, it is even more needed."

"Oh?" As soon as he finished speaking, Bi Yunmeng grabbed my right hand and rushed into the white passage.

When he reappeared, he was still in the deep mountain in the Yang Realm. I still don’t know where the mountain is exactly. I only know that it should be at the junction of Hunan and Hubei. I still haven’t figured out which city or even county it is. clear.

After coming out, Bi Yunmeng pretended to enjoy it and took a deep breath.

"Haha, is the air clear?" I joked. In fact, I knew in my heart that the ghost had no need to breathe for a long time, and the panting and breathing movements in many cases were just habitual responses to the situation.

Bi Yunmeng covered her mouth with a smile and said, "You have to have a human attitude to be a ghost. Let's go. The herbs I want are not here."

"Where?" I followed Bi Yunmeng and asked.

"Ten kilometers due north, there is a cave over there. The herbs I want are in that cave." Bi Yunmeng floated into the air and began to float towards due north.

Bi Yunmeng's speed makes me a little anxious. At most, it's only as fast as the crew's filming speed. But it's no wonder she's just a ghost doctor. She doesn't have any great strength. She even has to go out to collect medicine. Bring a protector.

"Mengmeng, do you mind going a little faster?" I asked, floating next to her.

Bi Yunmeng nodded and said, "Of course I don't mind."

As soon as she finished speaking, I put my hand on her shoulder without hesitation. The yin energy all over my body suddenly burst out. I took Bi Yunmeng and rushed out like an arrow. In less than two minutes, we were down. At the entrance of the cave.

As soon as he hit the ground, Bi Yunmeng broke away from me. He shook his head and said, "I'm so faint. You're going too fast. No, please give me a few minutes to slow down. I can't stand it anymore."

Looking at Bi Yunmeng's appearance, I felt a little sorry. I never expected that Bi Yunmeng, as a ghost, could faint at such a speed. Turning around and looking at the surroundings, I finally understood what Bi Yunmeng meant by protecting the law.

The yin energy around this cave is very heavy, and directly opposite the cave is a mass grave. Now that we have just arrived at midnight, the yin energy is strong, and we have already seen a dozen lonely ghosts wandering outside. .

"This place is far away from the hustle and bustle of the world, and it is also a large gathering place. What medicinal materials will be here?" I asked Bi Yunmeng who was still in a daze.

Bi Yunmeng shook his head again, and then said: "Well, the medicinal materials are in the cave. We have been here once before, and there were two evil spirits in the cave. Those two evil spirits even caused us to lose a brother."

"Uh, was Shen Wang there that time?" I suddenly remembered the wooden plaque in my hand. Shen Wang said it belonged to one of his companions and died unexpectedly during a mission.

"Yes, it was that time. In order to protect me, that brother dragged the two evil spirits away, and Shen Wang took me out of the cave." Bi Yunmeng said, "Originally, if you didn't come this time, Shen Wang would have taken another Two brothers came here to kill those two evil spirits."

"Well, let's go down, and leave those two evil spirits to me." I said and took the lead in getting into the cave. Since I took someone else's passage wooden sign, I could repay him a favor by avenging him.

Bi Yunmeng followed behind and said: "The medicinal materials I want to collect are called Seven Great Merits. They grow in the Yang world, but they belong to the underworld. This kind of thing cannot see the light. Once it is seen, it will wither and turn to ashes. No matter what light it is, even if it is Not even moonlight."

"I've heard of a medicine called the Ten Great Merits. This is the first time I've heard of the Seven Great Merits." I said.

Bi Yunmeng said with appreciation: "Not bad, you also know the ten major merits."

I chuckled, "When Tiedan and Yu Bingqing were injured and couldn't find a ghost doctor, they read a lot of books on Chinese medicine."

The entrance to this cave is very narrow. Once you enter, you will find a rugged and winding passage. After entering the passage, the inside suddenly opens up, showing a very large space. In this space, there are piles of rocks on the ground, but there are many beautiful things on the rock walls. There are stalactites and inverted stalagmites, and there is a constant sound of water dripping.

The Yin Qi inside is much stronger than outside. I have been in the Yang Realm for so many years, and this is the place with the strongest Yin Qi I have ever seen.

"Do you feel that the Yin Qi here is a little too strong?" Bi Yunmeng seemed to see my doubts.

I nodded and said, "Yes, we are almost at the starting point of Huangquan."

Bi Yunmeng explained: "The Yin Qi here is so strong precisely because of the seven merits. The seven merits have the function of gathering Yin in the Yang world where Yin Qi is thin, and they have the effect of gathering souls and spiritual intelligence in the underworld. Before I The reason for failure in repairing spiritual wisdom is because there are no seven meritorious virtues.”

I nodded and said, "Then let's go pick it quickly."

Bi Yunmeng said: "The seven great merits are at the bottom. I'm just wondering, why didn't those two evil ghosts come out?"

"When was the last time you were here?" I asked.

"five years ago."

"Well, maybe he left. Maybe he was killed by other evil spirits or Taoists. Don't worry about them. You can just collect the medicine in peace." I said.

Bi Yunmeng hummed and flew towards the innermost part of the cave.

I followed closely, paying careful attention to the surrounding environment. Bi Yunmeng's strength was too weak. If he was plotted by an evil ghost, he might be knocked out of his wits.

Passing through the large space, we came to a sunken cliff. This cliff seems to be only more than ten meters wide, but it is very deep below. If it is an ordinary person, it will definitely be described as bottomless, but I am different. I can still see the bottom, which is probably less than a hundred meters deep. meters deep, and the Yin Qi inside was even richer, and at the bottom of the cliff, I also saw a few evil ghosts that might be Bi Yunmeng's.

There are four evil spirits, two male and two female, facing each other. The two female ghosts were dressed in red, and their faces were exactly the same. Their resentment was also great, and the two male ghosts did not seem to be in the same group as the two female ghosts...
