hell in disguise

Several abandoned black and white Wuchang old houses at the east end of Fengdu South Street have been used as temporary residences for Qinghong Wuchang candidates these days.The two-storey small building surrounds a courtyard in all directions, and there are a few blood-red maple trees in the middle, with maple leaves that melt when they fall to the ground.In the building, only a few rooms are lit with red lanterns in front of them, and the star lights in the houses quietly melt into the deep night.

Since two rounds of trials had passed, most of the candidates had been eliminated, and the courtyard that had been bustling for a while became quiet again.Successively, some candidates who had already been eliminated or decided to abstain from voting left Fengdu with their luggage on their backs. It is said that the King of the Wheel was ordered by Yan Mowang to open a temporary passage under the Datiewei Mountain, so that these ghosts could be sent back to their respective places in an instant. hell go.

When Yan Fei went back, he saw Dan Zhu holding his sword, leaning against the maple tree and waiting quietly.As he approached, Dan Zhucai stood up straight and looked at him.

"Are you really human?" Dan Zhu asked.

Yan Fei nodded and smiled at him, "My real name is Yan Fei."

"You and that Qing Wuchang examiner are master and apprentice?"

"Yes."

"You came to hell to find him?"

Yan Fei nodded.

Dan Zhu lowered his eyes slightly, seeming a little sad, but the trace of emotional fluctuations quickly disappeared.He continued, "I heard that the third trial was a narrow escape. Now that you have offended Judge Han, he will definitely not let you go. Do you really want to continue?"

Yan Fei replied without hesitation, "Go on, I finally got to this point, I can't give up."

After Danzhu came back, he heard the Gaifeng ghost and the fishwife ghost gossip over there, saying that they heard it from other Qinghongwuchang. According to the time in the human world, this Qingwuchang named Sunamara has not lived for 300 years. The red impermanence, and the reason why Yan Fei was able to pass two levels in a row, maybe it was because Jin Namoluo deliberately let the water go, and wanted his apprentice to be his own red impermanence.The two of them also talked a lot of unpleasant gossip, saying that Yan Fei is so good-looking, and most Qinghong Wuchang have that kind of relationship, so the master-student relationship must not be just a master-student relationship.Maybe the teacher and the apprentice are false, but Yan Fei is the ban of Namara; the truth is the truth.Perhaps that Qinglin ghost adopted Yan Fei at the beginning because he was looking good-looking and prepared to "use" him when he grew up.

Hearing this, Dan Zhu felt a dull pain in his heart, and the pain turned into anger to vent, so he beat up the speeding ghost.The speeding ghost was punched a few times before he had time to react, but he couldn't beat Dan Zhu, so he had to run far away, shouting from afar, "You have taken a fancy to him, but he has been fooling around with his master for a long time, come find me!" Why are you so angry!"

Dan Zhu originally thought that Yan Fei was the Hong Wuchang he was looking for, but he didn't expect that what Yan Fei was thinking of was the unsmiling and cruel green scale ghost.

Thinking that Yan Fei might really be raised by that green-scaled ghost to satisfy his selfish desires, Dan Zhu felt as if his heart had been thrown into a frying pan.He seemed to have seen the young Yan Fei ignorantly refusing or resisting, being coveted by the green scale ghost, his hands clenched into fists, his joints creaking.

It's no wonder, if you only look at the appearance, who would have thought that the superficially strong Qian Na would be completely passive in that kind of thing, and who would have thought that although Yan Fei looks weak, but his desire is extremely strong, when that moment comes, it seems like Suddenly revealed his true nature and turned into a hungry wolf.They would never have thought that it was Yan Fei who had the forbidden desire first.

"Are you worth it?" Dan Zhu asked unwillingly.

Yan Fei walked up to him slowly, his eyes were calm and gentle.He felt Danzhu's affection for him, and if there was no master, he might really like this silent and tenacious red-scaled ghost.

But it's a pity.

"Master saved me and brought me up." Yan Fei said earnestly, "Master is like air to me. Without it, I will die. Without it, I would rather die. Do you understand?"

Dan Zhu stared at him blankly.

He had never felt such a strong attachment to anyone, and he could not understand such a crazy obsession.

"You're crazy..."

Yan Fei smiled softly, the smile was extremely gorgeous, like a poppy flower in full bloom, "Probably, I also felt that I was going crazy. You don't know, the days when I thought I lost him was really terrible It seems that suddenly everything has lost its meaning, I don’t want to talk, I don’t want to eat, I don’t want to do anything, I don’t even know why I continue to live. I used to read those dramas, some women would not be able to be with the son they admired. They committed suicide together, thinking that it was just a story, and no one would do it in reality. When the incident happened, I found out that those were all true. I probably, really lived because of him."

Yan Fei's words were spoken in a very ordinary tone, and the words that were originally a bit crazy turned into something as conclusive as a statement of facts.

Yan Fei smiled at Dan Zhu and patted him on the shoulder, "You will find a more suitable Hong Wuchang." After speaking, he walked around him and walked to the stairs leading to the second floor at the end of the corridor.

Next door to Yan Fei is Liu Yusheng's room, he is still lingering and has not left yet.

Not long after Yan Fei returned to the house, Liu Yusheng knocked on his door.

"I heard that you are in the limelight today." As soon as he entered the door, Liu Yusheng bent his crescent-like eyes and asked teasingly.

Although Yan Fei didn't answer, he smiled as if he had eaten honey.He remembered how the master knelt in front of Han Zitong and told everyone that he wanted Yan Fei to be his red impermanence.

It was a dreamlike scene, and Yan Fei at that time was almost bursting with joy.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I laughed like a fool. People say that people in love have no brains, and it's true." Liu Yusheng said lightly, sat down at the table lightly, and poured himself a cup of tea familiarly .Although the tea in Fengdu is the worst in heaven, it is clearer and sweeter than the best Biluochun in the world, which makes him almost addicted to drinking it.Just for this tea, he will spend some more time here.

"Yusheng, do you have any medicine that can greatly increase my skill in a short period of time?" Yan Fei asked earnestly.

Liu Yusheng raised his eyes and glanced at him, "Although I have it, what do you want to thank me for?"

Yan Fei thought for a while and said, "If you want to try any new medicine in the future, I will volunteer to be your medicine man?"

Liu Yusheng chuckled, shook his head and said, "You think you are invulnerable to all poisons? Do you take medicine as candy? I don't need you to be my medicine man, but I want you to remember that you owe me another favor. This Once you add the previous one, you will owe more and more."

"After I become Hong Wuchang, I'll get you all the herbs you need from hell, how about that?" Yan Fei sat across from him with a smile.

"Since you brought it up, I really want to find Dongxu."

"Oh? What?"

"Six Desires and Essence Sutra."

Yan Fei was taken aback, "It's not herbs? Since when did you become interested in Buddhist scriptures?"

Liu Yusheng smiled and said, "This is not a Buddhist scripture, but a magic scripture. It was dictated by the demon god Bo Xun and recorded by his followers. It is said that there is a way to connect the six realms. If you learn this method, you can It penetrates the heavens and the earth, without being bound by the six realms, and is at ease."

"Bo Xun? You mean the demon king who prevented Sakyamuni from becoming a Buddha?"

"That was a long time ago. And the legends are also wrong. After all, the Buddhist scriptures were also recorded by the Buddha's followers." Liu Yusheng's expression was a little bit sad, "He turned into the Lord of Freedom and fed on the happiness and enjoyment of sentient beings in the six realms. He probably felt that the Buddha’s method of liberation made people lose all attachments and lusts, and it was not considered true happiness, so he obstructed it? But he seemed to be persuaded later. There are not many believers in Bo Xun now, but many They are all in the Shura Way. If you have seen Shura, you should have heard of it."

Yan Fei smiled and said, "You seem to admire him a lot?"

"It doesn't count, I'm just curious about him. If there is really a way to penetrate the six realms, then anyone can go to any one, right? I heard that there are 33 stages in this day. If you can go once, take a look at this What exactly does the universe look like, and how good should it be?"

Yan Fei shrugged and said, "In that case, wouldn't hell be empty, and all the creatures would rush to heaven."

"If the hell is not empty, swear that you will not become a Buddha. Isn't this the goal of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva?" Liu Yusheng laughed. Everyone is crowded in their own day. But the number of celestial beings is probably less than one tenth of that of human beings. Isn’t this a huge waste? Even if all living beings go to the heavenly court, it will not be crowded .”

"I'm afraid that when the evil spirits in hell go, they will even bring the spirit of hell with them. And the division of the six realms is not based on human karma. In that case, it is the same for doing good deeds or doing bad deeds." Why do people do good deeds in a place like this?”

But Liu Yusheng asked, "Isn't it because of human nature that people do good deeds? Even if they have to be punished for doing bad things, they must be punished as their crimes, and let the cause and effect take its course. For example, if a pair of monkeys help each other for a long time, they will be rewarded. After eating less food, they can work together to obtain more food. If a monkey steals food from another monkey, the two will not talk about their enemies, and other monkeys will know that this monkey will steal and will not fight with him. Form a pair. This monkey finally didn’t have enough food and was starved to the skin and bones. It has lost its memory, and has nothing to do with the previous life except for the unrecognizable soul. For example, that monkey has become a rabbit, and has no idea that he was a monkey before. At this time, you have to let him Being punished for not remembering the previous life, isn’t it the same as the concept of repaying the father’s debt, it’s too unreasonable?”

Yan Fei thought about Liu Yusheng's words, and then thought of ghosts such as Master, Danzhu, Luo Xin, and Daza. They were all such good ghosts, but they had to endure the torment of hellfire.

Originally, people choose to do evil, but in many cases they are forced by circumstances.Just like Dan Zhu was sold into the killer organization in his previous life, he could only do evil in order to survive.He never had a choice.And in Kuma Moro's previous life, facing that situation, his wife committed suicide because she was defiled by her own father. Who can bear such hatred?

Is evil in this case really absolute evil?

Liu Yusheng saw him thinking hard, smiled slightly, and put his hand on the back of Yan Fei's hand, "Don't think about it, I just mentioned it casually. It would be best if you can find it, but I'm not in a hurry want."

Before he finished speaking, the door was suddenly pushed open.Jianna walked in directly, but saw Liu Yusheng put his hand on the back of Yan Fei's at a glance.

Yan Fei opened his eyes wide in surprise, "Master!"

But Qianna looked at Liu Yusheng's and Yan Fei's overlapping hands, and his face gradually became gloomy.

"I'll come back later." Qian Na closed the door with a cold bang and left.

How could Yan Fei let the master run away like this, he raised his hands and got up and rushed out the door without hesitation, "Master! Wait for me!"
