Chapter 146 Soul Devouring and Soul Seizing
"Brother, I can answer your question, but to be honest, we two brothers don't know the situation inside the underworld. After all, you can also see the situation of the two of us. It's just because we are the guards of the hell gate.
The two of us are sealed here. If we don’t want to die, we can only guard the gate of hell and make achievements in order to have the opportunity to escape from here one day in the future and enter reincarnation. Therefore, even if we want to enter the underworld, we can face
I don’t even have the slightest chance to meet the big guys inside." The Soul Eater on the left spoke in a sincere tone.
But how much of this is sincere, and how much is just to gain sympathy or other things, only Soul Eater himself knows.
After all, they are ghosts, and they are extremely vicious evil ghosts. Their essence is different from normal people, immortals, and even monsters. Instead, like monsters and demons, they pursue and spread negative things.
Instinct to be kind?
It’s no different from dreaming.
But it’s not absolute.
After all, these two people have been sealed in the hell gate for who knows how many years. Maybe a lot of their temperaments have been wiped out long ago. Otherwise, if they are extremely evil characters, the underworld will not seal them two.
It is normal to throw them directly into hell and accept the punishment of endless reincarnation.
After a pause, Soul Eater continued: "Of course, just saying that doesn't mean that we really have nothing to do. We can still pass through the surrounding ghost soldiers, their patrols, and the two marshals Black and White.
Sir, the two generals with the bull head and the horse face, or the judge who is away on business, every year when the gate of hell opens, the old ghosts who leave here to visit their relatives in the human world reveal some words to understand some of the things inside the underworld."
"For example, what you want to know, little brother, about the Yin Emperor, the Ten Palaces of Yama, the Judges of the Ten Directions, the two marshals of Black and White and the two generals of Bull Head and Horse Face, although we have not seen it with our own eyes, we can probably guess something about it.
Two——"
"They probably left the underworld because of something and are not active in the underworld for the time being."
Hearing this, Aragaki Ping was not polite and directly threw two faith crystals to Soul Devouring. Soul Devouring Soul continued to ask: "When did you leave? How long has it been since you disappeared? Also, what did you just say?"
What’s going on with ‘something’s about to happen’?”
"This is not a problem." Duopo muttered.
But Soul Eater did not dwell on this point, and still responded cooperatively: "We don't know exactly when they left. After all, our information comes from ghost soldiers who passed by here, ghost soldiers, and those who returned to the human world.
I heard it in the chat of an old ghost visiting his relatives, but it has indeed been a long time ago, probably hundreds of years ago, Duo Soul."
When talking about the latter part, Soul Eater asked his partner.
"Well, there are still some in four hundred years." Duopo agreed.
"As for what we're worried about, to be honest, we don't know either." Soul Eater sighed.
"You don't know either?" Aragaki Ping said in surprise.
"Yes, we don't know either. You can regard our worries as unfounded. After all, it has been four hundred years. It was only five hundred years ago when Heaven suppressed Monkey King. Now it is more than four hundred years ago.
Years have passed, and there is still no news from Emperor Yin and King Yama as well as many judges, marshals, and generals. If there was no trouble, I would not believe it. So, when we are bored, we two brothers
I can't help but wonder if something happened to the King of Hell and they fell, and if something that could cause trouble to the King of Hell and the others will happen to the underworld, what will happen to the two of us brothers? Will they perish with the underworld?
In this way, we have a way to vent our worries all day long, and it’s good to be able to talk to you.”
"Is the gate of hell still open as usual?" Aragaki nodded, threw two faith crystals into Ergui's mouth again and asked.
"Yes. It's the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month every year." Duo Po didn't know if he was enjoying the meal, so he replied in a rare way.
"Don't you have to wait for instructions from the underworld?" Aragaki Ping said in surprise.
"This has become a routine, so the authority to open the door has been given to us long ago. Therefore, even without instructions, we can use the weather and the aura formed when ghosts gather to open the ghost gate on our own.
" Soul Eater explained.
"Last question, what's going on with those lonely ghosts in the world?" Aragaki asked.
"You're asking the wrong person," Soul Eater shook his head.
Also, all their information about the underworld needs to be gathered from the gossips of patrolling ghost soldiers, ghost soldiers and passing ghosts. How can they know the situation outside?
I never saw that they didn’t even know where they came from. They kept talking about themselves as if they were local practitioners from the Dragon Kingdom.
But it’s not their fault. After all, the jurisdiction of the underworld is too large. It seems to be just a domestic legend. It controls the cycle of life and death in the Dragon Kingdom. But if you include the influence of Buddhism and Confucian culture, it can be said that the entire Asia
, except for Siberia and the Persian Empire, the remaining reincarnations of life and death in Southeast Asia and other countries are all controlled by the underworld.
At most, it’s just that the gods responsible for the local area are different——
For example, here in Japan, it’s Izanami.
On the side of the third brother of India, there is Yama, which is the original posture of King Yama.
This is generally the case in Southeast Asia.
In addition, Aragaki Hei immediately said that he was a Sanxian, and he still used Chinese, so it is normal that the two ghosts did not think of him elsewhere.
After all, when it comes to practice, since ancient times, only the local monks can become immortals. It may be possible for barbarians from other places to become Buddhas. After all, Buddhism itself is a foreign religion and is more suitable for the local culture. But what about immortals?<
/p>
That is a proper local product of the Dragon Kingdom. Without sufficient cultural heritage and understanding of this information, outsiders cannot become immortals.
Not to mention, practitioners have monopolized and protected cultural knowledge since ancient times. Even if there are occasional traitors and unrighteous guys who take the inheritance with them, it is only a few words——
Similar to the nine-character mantra that monk Jianzhen brought to Japan, it is mixed with water, so foreigners want to use the inheritance of the Dragon Kingdom to become immortals?
Probably can only become a strange monster!
"Thank you both for your answers. I've finished asking my questions." After saying that, Aragaki Ping threw two more faith crystals to the two ghosts, Baoquan said.
"Brother, you're welcome." Soul Eater licked his lower lips with satisfaction and said as if he was still unsatisfied.
Aragaki said no more, turned around and made another move to leave the underworld.
