Not only that, behind them there were countless people dressed as ghosts, all of them grinning, making people feel cold just by looking at them.

Shen Yunjiao screamed and asked in a lost voice: "Who are you?"

The black and white figures stiffened their hands at the same time and pointed upwards. The three big words "Yama Palace" hanging above their heads suddenly came into her sight.

The old man is King Yama, and the two figures, one black and one white, are undoubtedly the Black and White Impermanence.

Shen Yunjiao's eyes rolled back and she almost fainted.

But when he thought that he was already dead, there was no point in fainting again. He could only force himself to be strong and asked in a crying voice.

"May I ask King Yama, why did I enter this Yama Palace?"

King Yama, who was sitting at the top, was unable to react for a moment, but fortunately, Hei Wuchang, who was standing next to him, kicked him secretly.

"Cough!" Yan Luo coughed heavily and said in a cold voice, "Do you know that you have committed a serious crime?"

Bai Wuchang also kicked him and said in a voice that only they could hear: "Speak to the point."

King Yan Luo looked at him with resentment, "Can you two respect me for a moment? After all, I am now the most honorable person in the room."

King Yama was actually Shufeng in disguise.

The Black and White Impermanence on the side are Lengfeng and Liefeng.

Originally, Shen Qingyan thought that it would be most appropriate for Pei Zheng to impersonate King Yama, after all, he was the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple, making it easier to interrogate him. However, he rejected this suggestion and disguised himself as a little ghost.

Seeing this, Shen Yunjiao couldn't help but believe it. She was obviously feeling guilty, but she still insisted on being stubborn.

"I don't know what serious crime I have committed. Please tell me clearly, Lord Yama."

In order to prevent his calf from being kicked even more painfully, Shuofeng had to get straight to the point.

"Since you think you are innocent, do you recognize this person?"

As soon as he raised his hand, two people who looked like little ghosts came forward with a familiar figure and stopped five steps away from Shen Yunjiao.

Shen Yunjiao took a closer look and became even more certain that she had really arrived in hell.

In the dim candlelight, who else could that figure be but Chunhua?

His face was pale, his tongue was stretched out long and dripping with blood, exactly the same as what I saw that day, even clearer.

Her mouth opened and closed, repeating a sentence in a sinister voice.

"It's you who hurt me, it's you..."

She fell to the ground with a thud, her face pale as ashes.

"No, not me!"

Shufeng slammed the gavel and shouted harshly.

"The Yama Palace knows everything that happens in the human world. How dare you make up stories like that?"

"If you had confessed the truth, you could have been spared the punishment of being boiled in oil or being crushed by a huge ship. Now it seems that you still don't repent, so just throw you into the oil pan."

Shen Yunjiao was suddenly shocked and didn't care about anything else. She shouted loudly.

"I said, I said!"

Shuofeng stroked his beard pretentiously, snorted coldly, and pointed at the fake Chunhua.

"Then I'll give you one last chance. Tell the truth. What did you do to this woman?"

Shen Yunjiao calmed herself down and spoke in a trembling voice.

"Her death really had nothing to do with me. I didn't know the power of the gunpowder was so strong. She was killed in the explosion before she could even run away..."

Shuofeng slammed the gavel again, his voice even more stern.

"Why place the gunpowder? But to harm people?!"

Shen Yunjiao's body tensed up when she was yelled at, and she also felt confused and alert.

Lengfeng and Liefeng kicked Shuofeng at the same time in frustration.

“Pay attention to the rhythm!”

"Don't be impatient!"

"Hiss~" Shuofeng almost cried out in pain and glared at him angrily.

Didn't you ask me to get to the point?!

Shuofeng gritted his teeth secretly, but he couldn't scold them on the spot, so he could only grit his teeth and bear it.

Shen Yunjiao had already noticed something. She looked around and was about to stand up.

But the next moment, two shiny serrated knives were placed across her neck.

One of the little ghosts said in a hoarse voice, "Do you want to be sawed and broken?"

Shen Yunjiao swallowed and sat back down again.

Shen Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief.

Because she was the little devil who spoke just now.

Fortunately, she had a sudden inspiration and made up a punishment, and Qingmei on the opposite side also reacted quickly and cooperated with her, otherwise Shen Yunjiao would have almost escaped.

Originally, she planned to use the intimidation method she had used before to interrogate Shen Yunjiao, but after a secret conversation between Gu Beihuai and Pei Zheng, Pei Zheng felt that this method had been used once and was somewhat inappropriate and might alert the enemy, so he switched to the current "Yan Luo Palace Method".

It has to be said that Pei Zheng was meticulous about everything, even if he was playing tricks, he would make careful arrangements.

This Yama Palace was carefully decorated by him and his people.

Of course, the prerequisite is to give Shen Yunjiao some medicine and let her sleep for a while, and then wake her up after the arrangements are made.

Shuofeng adjusted his state and continued to question.

"To say it, or not to say it?"

A threatening tone of voice is often more effective than direct questioning.

Thinking of those horrific punishments and the two large serrated knives on her neck, Shen Yunjiao hurriedly told the truth.

"Yes, I used gunpowder to blow up Shen Qingyan. I just wanted to kill her alone, and didn't want to implicate Chunhua!"

There was silence for a moment.

"Ridiculous!" Shuo Feng shouted angrily, "Why don't you tell the truth? Do you really only want to harm one person?"

Shen Yunjiao shrank her neck and whispered, "Who asked Gu Ruxiao to ride in the same carriage with Shen Qingyan? I didn't intend to harm her..."

Having said that, most of the matter has become clear.

Shen Yunjiao really wanted to use gunpowder to harm Shen Qingyan and Gu Ruxiao. She admitted this herself, and it was a foregone conclusion.

Next is the source of gunpowder.

Just as Shufeng was about to continue the interrogation, a man's shout interrupted him.

"What are you doing?"

Everyone looked towards the source of the sound.

After Shen Qingyan saw who was coming, she felt something was wrong.

This person is none other than Gu Chenan!

He strode in, looked around, and his eyes fell on Yama Shuofeng.

He stepped forward quickly, trying to tear off the disguise on Shufeng's face.

Shuofeng dodged immediately, and Lengfeng and Liefeng also attacked at the same time.

However, Gu Chenan's moves were swift and fierce, and he rushed towards Shufeng regardless of anything, determined to achieve his goal.

At this moment, a gust of wind flashed by, and the cold wind immediately dodged to the left and right. The gust of wind, accompanied by a serrated knife, chopped towards Gu Chenan's back.

This speed was even faster than Gu Chenan's, so he avoided the back but failed to avoid the shoulder.

Gu Chenan groaned and staggered forward. After finally steadying his body, he looked back and saw a man in strange clothes and a devil mask looking at him coldly.

Those eyes are very familiar.

No one cared about Gu Chenan. Instead, several "little ghosts" of different sizes immediately stepped forward and pulled the little ghost who had attacked to the side to comfort him.

The moment Gu Chenan appeared and took action, Shen Yunjiao knew that she had been deceived.

She took advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention and rushed to the door, but was escorted back by the two guards who had been guarding outside.

She struggled and screamed.

"Who are you? Let me go!"

One of the "little ghosts" slowly took off his mask.
