Tomo-sama's Rescue Plan - Hell Chapter

I stood in the tumbling and rising flames, as if I had returned to the day when I just fell into hell, when I opened my eyes on the scorched earth of the Karmic Fire Realm.

The skin and flesh melted, the blood evaporated, and it repeated countless reincarnations.

A deep voice sounded in the void:

"Lord of Arakawa, repent your sins!"

"I am not guilty." I said, "Humans did feed me with the flesh and blood of the witch when I was in chaos, but this is like a newborn baby who cannot choose its own food. Neither can I. Until my last witch Purified me with her own soul, she has no hatred for me, but only blessings, and I have become a true god. I am innocent."

The tongue of fire licked my arm, "You must bear the crime of killing, otherwise you will not come to hell! Repent!"

"Yes, I killed Yagyu Daimyo's family."

I say.

"But that was 12 years later. They blew up the dam and flooded the nearby villages to protect their own fields. This is an evil deed. As the water god of Arakawa, I punish the evil deeds of human beings, and I am not at fault."

"There are more than 60 people in their family, and there must be innocent people among them." The voice asked persistently, "Besides, the gods cannot interfere with the cause and effect of the world. Your wanton use of the power of the gods is the reason for falling into hell."

"Since the Yagyu family became the feudal lord, countless innocent girls have been sacrificed, and the entire family is built on the bones of witches. You can't interfere, do you want those girls to crawl out to seek justice?" I sneered, " Speaking of which, I have been in hell for so long, but I haven’t seen Yagyu-sama’s family. Or is it that the great gods are more willing to turn a blind eye to the sins of humans because they need the worship of humans?”

"What an eloquent mouth."

The voice suddenly changed into that of a young girl.The flames parted, and a black-haired girl stretched out a hand and caressed my face playfully.

"I won't pretend to be with you, Bai Ji, we are all gods, so let's be honest with each other."

"Do you really think that you can destroy the law of karma and take sinners away from hell? After all, you are just a little water god, and you have lost your divine body. You don't think that a place like hell is yours." If you want to come, you can come, if you want to go, you can go, right?"

That snow-white hand turned into dry bones, its sharp nails poked at my neck, and its delicate voice became hoarse like an old woman's.

"A place where even I, who is in charge of this sinful place, cannot escape...Why do you break the rules set by the gods?"

Half of her face looked like the most exquisite artwork, and the other half was dry bones, and maggots gushed out from the empty eye sockets like a line of tears.

"Your Excellency is just a poor man trapped by hatred and fear of death." I said softly, "I don't know why, but you can't kill me, am I right?"

"Hehe... Interesting... Bai Ji, you are such an interesting person..."

The other party smiled instead of anger, and his figure gradually disappeared in the fire of karma.

"You have been wandering in hell for 200 years, so you should be very clear that everything has a price. If you want to take that ghost away, be prepared to pay the corresponding price."

When I opened my eyes again, I was in a trance for a moment. I didn't know if I was in the inner hall of Arakawa Shrine with the fragrance of paulownia and vine flowers, or in hell.

My head exploded with pain.After hearing Xie Huamei's octave-high broken sound, it exploded even more.

"Wow, sister, you're awake! I thought you were dead~"

Don't be so involved in acting, girl...

"It's so noisy..." I covered my head, "If you call me again, I will throw you out."

"Miss Ran is awake? That's great. I don't know why, but your sister refuses to let me give you medicine. I'm still very worried... It seems that there should be no serious problems."

Zhu Shi's voice also sounded, and she handed me a bowl.

"Drink this, the headache will be relieved."

"You don't need your things, take them away!" Xiaomei said with raised eyebrows.

"Okay, Xiaobai, I trust Miss Zhushi."

I sat up in a daze, and took the bowl, which contained some kind of green liquid that smelled like plants.

Uh, so bitter.

"Miss Ran is amazing. She woke up in just one day. It took me three whole days..." Zhu Shi sighed, "But you kept crying when you were unconscious, did you dream about important people?"

I touched my face, and it was really cold.

Damn it, I hope nothing weird has been said.

"Well, I dreamed about the time I was at the shrine with Xiaobai before."

I replied vaguely.

"Don't worry, everyone has recognized your human identity. After all, it is very difficult for the ghosts created by Wu Mi to survive the karmic fire of the 'Kalachakra', let alone cry and repent."

Oh, that's what you haven't seen.I think.I have seen a ghost who can only cry for you anytime and anywhere.

"Miss Zhu Shi has also experienced trials? I see that you are already familiar with them, do you still need trials?"

"Ghosts are sinful existences. There are only two ways in this hell. Either go through the 'trial' and cleanse the killing karma, and then repent of your mistakes wholeheartedly, or you can only be eliminated. I am a ghost, so naturally No exception." Zhu Shi lowered his eyes, "When that filthy man turned the concubine into a ghost, he didn't tell me that he would lose his consciousness as a human being for a period of time after being transformed into a ghost. The concubine... was eaten because of this. own husband and children."

"And the reason why I chose to become a ghost is because I was seriously ill at the time, but I wanted to watch the child grow up..."

She turned her head to the side, tears welling up in her eyes.

Is it really this kind of human tragedy...

"You don't need to be too obsessed with this." I said lightly, "People who really love us will not resent the mistakes we have made. They must be blessed somewhere, waiting to meet us again that day."

Zhu Shi looked back at me, and smiled after a moment.

"Miss Ran is really an incredible girl, but as a human being, she can come and go freely in hell. Did you have such a state of mind?"

She sighed softly: "But I think that those who commit unforgivable crimes must be punished. I have also fallen into the trap of killing and devouring human flesh for a long time, which is addictive Yes, but for ghosts, unless they have never killed people or eaten human flesh, it is difficult to get rid of this addiction. And for hundreds of years, the concubines have been transforming their bodies to control this addiction to flesh and blood symptoms, and only managed to transform a young man into a ghost that can survive only on human blood."

"Miss Zhushi is really a strong-willed person." I smiled, "It's hard for me to be so strict. If existences like ghosts are born to eat people, then forcing them to give up human flesh and blood is like forcing Just like tigers and wolves don’t eat meat, it’s a way of suppressing one’s nature, and there must be various discomforts in the process of quitting. Ms. Zhushi must have great remorse for her relatives to do such a thing.”

Zhu Shi's smile showed some helplessness: "Although it is inappropriate to say this, if Miss Ran's relatives become ghosts, I am afraid you will also be in a dilemma. Among the people I once knew, there was also a young man who Watching my younger sister who has turned into a ghost fight against evil spirits, the courage and strength are admirable, but it is more common to be eaten by relatives who have turned into ghosts, or to kill relatives by myself, there is no choice.”

"I've never seen a ghost, so I really can't imagine it." I sighed, "But if it were me, I would probably look for the third way. After all, even if the other party becomes a ghost, he is still your important person. It doesn't look any different to me."

"The third way? Miss Ran thinks there is a third way?" Zhu Shi asked in a little surprise.

"It's just an analogy, Miss Zhu Shi, don't take it seriously." I covered my head, "My head still hurts..."

Zhu Shi nodded understandingly, "Don't worry, this is a normal reaction, it will be fine after a while of rest. I am a doctor after all, if you need anything, please feel free to tell me."

"Okay, thank you." I said sincerely.

As soon as she went out, I immediately collapsed on the tatami.

What a difficult woman.

Speaking of which, the side effects of this trial are really serious, and I feel like my brain has been churned into a mess.

Xie Huamei came over quietly, lowered her voice and said viciously: "Do you know that your eyes were bleeding at that time? Next time you try to kill me like this, I will leave you alone!"

"That's a side effect of building a barrier in the mind. I don't want them to see my memory." I said wearily, "That monk named Qianyue is very dangerous, you must be careful about him."

"They should believe us now, right? What are we going to do next?" Xiaomei's tone was actually a little excited, "Why don't we take that lord back, I think he looks sick, he should be very Easy to grab!"

"They may not believe us. First of all, my recovery is faster than ordinary humans. Secondly, they probably didn't get any useful information, so they won't let it go."

"Ah? Then how long are we going to stay here?" She said disappointedly, "I miss my brother."

I glanced at her and closed my eyes in despair.

"Please, don't talk to me."
