"My lord, what Wang Tianshi did was to hide his soul, why is he a high-ranking clergyman?" Zhang Deng raised the shackles on his hands and rattled them in protest.

"Wang Tianshi is No. 1 in the experimental field, don't be bloody!" A member of the jury next to him shouted.

"Stop arguing." At this time, sitting in the middle, with a fair face, regular facial features, wearing a crown, a King of Hades sitting upright, beckoning everyone to be quiet, opened the book of life and death in front of him and took a few glances.

"This Heavenly Master Wang didn't report specifically to the Underworld Division. Leapfrogging his powers is considered dereliction of duty. However, Zhang Deng, as a small extra-staff ghost, you have committed these crimes, and we must punish you. Colleagues, how do you look?"

The colleagues that King Bao mentioned were several other Kings of Yama. They put on airs (except King Xue) and sat on their own high platforms thinking.

After a while, Dong Wang of the Seventh Hall with a flat face spoke first: "Zhang Deng committed the crime of false accusation, which cost several lives. He should be sent to hell, put in a frying pan for a thousand years, and then go to the Eighth Hall for interrogation."

The handsome Huang Wang of the Eight Palaces with Zhou Zhenglue raised his hand immediately: "You don't need to hand it over to me. Zhang Deng didn't do anything wrong with disobeying his parents in the past 20 years. His parents died young, so he is still filial. King Bi, I think we two There is no need to take over this kid."

His brows were sharp, and he was wearing a fine light armor. King Bi of the Sixth Palace nodded silently like a general.Those who are not filial, disrespectful, and blame others are under his control.

Bao Wang knew that none of them wanted to accept Zhang Deng as a hot potato, so he looked around the book of life and death, thought for a while, and waved to Xue Wang, asking him to step down and chat with him in the back.

King Xue put down his drained teacup, stroked his curly short hair, walked down the high platform with his leather shoes, and walked in front of King Bao.

"Master Xue, this kid is your non-staff employee. I think it's up to you to deal with it. The punishment should not be too severe or too light. The superiors are also watching, and you decide for yourself. Next time, we will go to that Yangjian house together." What cafeteria to eat?"

King Xue glanced at him, and the soles of Wang Bao's feet trembled.

"I can handle it. However," Xue Wang raised a finger, "Next time, you treat me."

What the hell, almost scared the little moon on Bao Wang's brow.

"No problem, no problem. If you want me to invite you for a month, it's fine." Bao Wang patted Xue Wang on the shoulder, and the other party waved his hand, but he didn't let him do it again.

Returning to the high platform, King Bao cleared his throat, and said to the ghosts below: "The crime Zhang Deng committed is quite special, and several Yama kings can't judge it, so I will leave it to King Xue to decide."

Xue Wang stood up from his seat and looked down at Zhang Deng, as if examining Zhang Deng.

"Then I will punish you to enter the reincarnation cauldron for 2000 years. You have not yet reached the end of your lifespan, and in order to increase your suffering, I will put you in the egg-born cauldron this time and experience reincarnation together with your body. What do you guys think?"

The Yama kings were stunned for a moment, then nodded their heads in agreement.

Bao Wang glanced at Zhang Deng standing on the ground, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Wang Tianshi's Huilun Ding is just an experimental product. The real Huilun Ding was developed by strange people outside the six realms, and it will be used as a torture tool for the next generation after the inspection of the heavens.

It's only in the last few hundred years that another use of the Huilun Ding has been discovered, which is why second-hand dealers like Wang Tianshi appear.This time, Wang Tianshi found a talent. Although he was doing a gray business, because someone from above complained about him, Zhang Deng was held accountable.

It has to be said that this young man is quite unlucky.

Bao Wang saw several guardians put Zhang Deng down, and everyone left the stage one after another. He sat alone on the high platform and thought about the problem for a while.

A few minutes later, he took out a flyer, thinking that he should go to Hazi Canteen to eat fried dumplings and mapo tofu.

※※※

Zhang Deng was escorted to the tenth hall by Wugui and others.He knew that he had been wronged, but in the face of the accusations of the entire underworld, he had no room to retaliate.

Wugui poked him: "Boy, do you have any wishes? I will try my best to satisfy you."

How does it sound like the last wish before execution?

Zhang Deng smiled wryly and shook his head.What else could he wish for?He doesn't have any relatives and friends, and even his only lover is not around, all of this is done by him.deserve it.deserve it!

Wugui sighed, exchanged glances with King Xue, patted Zhang Deng, and led him upstairs.

As they walked, they actually came to the room where the viewing mirror was placed before.Zhang Deng looked puzzled and looked back.Wugui spread his arms towards him, picked up Zhang Deng like a chicken, and jumped into the water with him.

Zhang Deng opened his eyes wide in the water. It turns out that the underwater world is not the world above, but another dimension.

There is another piece of water under the viewing mirror, and the bottom is a pool mouth. Zhang Deng was dazedly worried about whether he would fall into the mouth, but he didn't expect that he would be pushed by Wugui Yi, and he would get buoyancy from that pool mouth. , floated to the surface.

Only then did he understand that the top and bottom of the viewing mirror are pool mouths, but they are connected with two completely upside-down spaces, so when they reach another space, the original falling gravity will become buoyancy.

What nonsense, Zhang Deng was still in shock, standing by the pool and looking back.

"Okay, kid, let's go quickly. The sooner you go in, the sooner you can come out."

Wugui pushed him, and Zhang Deng turned around to look at the surrounding environment.

In this endless wilderness, there are many huge stone boxes that look like round and square.

There are many strange patterns carved on the stone blocks, and only a small square window is left in each stone, so that people can see the situation inside.

Some of the stone boxes were empty. Zhang Deng followed Wugui and walked quickly past these erected stone boxes. When he glanced over, he found that half was empty and half was not empty, and he didn't know how many there were.

The person in the box was soaked in a slightly shiny liquid, and his eyeballs were constantly turning under his eyelids.It seems to be dreaming.

Zhang Deng felt a little shivering, and the soles of his feet felt cold.

Wugui noticed his state, didn't say anything, but quickened his pace.

After walking for another 10 minutes, Wugui finally stopped under a high platform.He uncuffed Zhang Deng's body and pointed to it: "Climb up."

Zhang Deng had no choice but to use both hands and feet to climb up to the high place.The high platform was made of very smooth stone, and Zhang Deng climbed hard for a while before reaching the top.

There is a stone box on the high platform, which is larger than the surrounding stone boxes. Zhang Deng can see the liquid inside, not only glowing, but also a little green.

"Take off your clothes and jump in." Wugui shouted from below, "Take off everything!"

Zhang Deng unbuttoned his clothes, and when he looked up at Chikou in the distance, a trace of nostalgia suddenly appeared in his heart.

"Wait!" Standing in the wind, Zhang Deng shouted to Wugui who looked up at him, "I want to make a call!"

Wugui immediately jumped up.He took out his communication tool from behind and patted Zhang Deng: "Stinky boy, I just thought of making a call at this time! Looking for Liu Bai, right?"

Zhang Deng nodded.Without returning, he pressed a few keys and dialed Liu Bai's cell phone.

After taking the homeless communication tool, Zhang Deng put his ear on it.His arms and lips were trembling, and there was a great anxiety and resistance in his heart, but it was too late.

"Hey?"

The calm male voice came to his ears, and Zhang Deng was in a daze for a moment.

He suddenly realized who the person standing on the other end of the phone was.That was Liu Bai, someone who would make his heart sweet just thinking about it.

At this moment, after chewing his mouth full of candy, a handful of bitter residue appeared.

Zhang Deng hurriedly replied: "Hi, hello? Liu Bai?"

"Yes. What's your business?"

"I'm Zhang Deng, um, where are you now?" Zhang Deng felt his lips trembling, as if some words were about to fall out.

"On a mission. In a foreign country, the signal here is not good, and the Internet is not very useful. What's wrong with you? Are you in trouble again?"

Zhang Deng choked up.How come at this time, he is still thinking about how to deal with the aftermath for himself.

Zhang Deng felt as if a handful of roasted chestnuts were forced into his heart. It was sweet and warm, but it was about to burn his heart.

There was a pain somewhere in his chest. Zhang Deng held the skirt of his shirt, wiped his nose with the back of his hand, and shook his head vigorously: "It's okay. I can handle it. It's just that I haven't heard your voice for a long time. I feel a little... Itchy, I want to give you Make a call."

"Itchy heart? I'm afraid it's not itchy skin."

"Heart itches, skin itches, itches everywhere, why don't you come back and scratch me?" Zhang Deng's drooping eyebrows hadn't moved back yet, when he heard Liu Bai's words, he made a joke as soon as he said it.He grinned, but it was just a wry smile.

"You're very energetic. You still use the homeless phone? Can't I get through with my mobile phone? It's normal, after all, Mingsi doesn't have the concept of international roaming."

"Uh, uh. That..."

"What?" Liu Bai asked him.

Zhang Deng held the phone, glanced around, finally gritted his teeth, and closed his eyes.

"It's nothing. It's nothing. You pay more attention outside, take care of yourself, don't be too tired, you always take care of me, now take care of yourself."

"Why does this sound like a farewell? I'll be back soon. If I have nothing to do, I'll go to work first. I'm busy."

"Oh, good. Then—"

Before Zhang Deng could say "goodbye", the phone was disconnected.His eyes darkened immediately, he stood at a loss for a while, and returned the communicator to Wugui.

Wugui watched quietly as Zhang Deng took off all his clothes and stood by the entrance of the stone box.

"You," Wugui said, "you've grown up a bit."

Zhang Deng smiled at him, his face turned pale.There was a strong wind in the wilderness, and Zhang Deng became cold all over after standing for a while.

"Don't talk too much with him. It's all my own fault." Zhang Deng turned his head, told Wugui, and stopped looking at him.

He looked up at the stone boxes all over the place, the cloudy and cloudy sky, thought about his lackluster life for a while, closed his eyes and jumped into the water.

※※※

Wugui saw him jumping into the water, the water in the stone box came alive, and wrapped the lamp, getting tighter and smaller, looking through the small window, his face was still clearly visible, but slowly. slowly became transparent.

The water in the stone box is not water, but a magical liquid mixed with Meng Po Tang Wangqing Water, which can reshape the illusion, and if the body enters the stone box, it can also affect the body.

After watching for a while, Wugui felt something was wrong.After careful identification, I found that there was still a dark thing hanging around Zhang Deng's neck.

Wugui frowned, thinking why didn't he find Zhang Deng hanging around his neck just now?But at this time, it is too late to get it again. Only one person can enter the stone box at a time, and the second entrant will be quickly dissolved.

After thinking about it, Wugui decided to let it go and leave the pendant alone.He shook his head, jumped to the ground two or three times, and walked towards the mouth of the pond.

Dingzhong time, in reality, 1 minute is Dingzhong day, one hour is 720 days, and one day is 2000 days, which is equivalent to two years.Zhang Deng needs to spend [-] years in the tripod, that is, a thousand days.

In reality, it's not that long.However, the efficacy of Meng Po Decoction will decrease year by year. At the beginning, cats, dogs and insects naturally have no memory, and the memory of previous lives will become clearer and clearer later. Many people can't survive the last few hundred years. When they come out, they become madman.These souls are damaged and cannot be rebuilt.Therefore, the punishment of Huilun Ding is actually a double torture for the body and the soul. Most sinners would rather throw themselves into the blood or the pool of blood.

However, for some weirdos, Huilun Ding is an extremely interesting thing. They like this invention very much, and some even ask to enter the tripod to experience it.

The immortals in the heavens especially like to watch the scene of the sinners in the illusion in the Huilun cauldron.

Wugui spat at the tripod on the side of the road, thinking that it would be great if this kind of thing could be completely destroyed.He understands that the life of immortals is boring, but this is not a reason to take down creatures from the lower world for fun, even if they will insist that this is not entertainment.

Wugui turned his head to look at the tripod on the high platform, calculated the time for his next visit, and then jumped into the mouth of the Guanshijing pool that returned to the underworld.
