Dazed

On the bank of the Naihe Bridge, thick smoke lingers, the place where ghosts must pass through to enter the underworld for trial. It was originally the busiest area in the whole underworld, but at this time, not a single ghost can be seen. Ghost Yamen and Meng Po suddenly disappeared. Everything seemed calm, yet weird.

In the Shifang Hall, the panic-stricken judge rushed into the hall while holding on to the hat on his head, and yelled at the king of hell who was resting on his seat: "King of hell, it's not good. This morning, Naiheqiao, Wraith All the ghosts of the year suddenly disappeared!"

Hades, who had his eyes closed, suddenly opened them, frowned, and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"

"It seems that the Master of Kuhai Cliff escaped from the dungeon and transferred him away." The judge hurried back.

Cao Jingxing?Yan Wang's face became stern, and his face, which was not angry and prestige, began to be covered with dark clouds. His eyes shot out a chilling coldness, and he asked the judge, "What is he going to do?"

Seeing Hades' anger, the judge feared that the two men would pinch each other, sweating profusely, and said: "I don't know where the master of the cliff got a ghost order, which can name three thousand little ghosts and seven thousand resentful spirits. Is it out of resentment that Yama punished him?"

"Impossible." Hades King Huo De stood up, unable to figure out Cao Jingxing's behavior, he frowned and asked again: "Where's the ghost guarding him?"

"This..." The judge lowered his head, complaining endlessly in his heart. The King of Hades punished the Cliff Lord out of the law, but in the final analysis, the crime he committed was not serious, but it was because the King of Hades was angry that he deliberately punished him. Under the consideration of the other three masters, when the other three masters hinted that he would remove the ghost beast so that Cao Jingxing could sneak in and out of the underworld in private, he sold his favor and removed the ghost beast, leaving only a look that was completely impossible to resist. live in his stone prison.

Yan Wang let out a breath of air. Seeing the judge's faltering appearance, he knew in his heart that what the judge did in private, he had known for a long time, but seeing that Cao Jingxing had not made any other serious mistakes, he also opened his eyes I closed my eyes, but I never expected that this person would take such a provocative action today. It was really a waste of the favor left by the old cliff master.

"Stay in the hall and don't move around. I'll go find him." Hades thought for a moment, then raised his eyes and replied.

The judge hastily answered yes.

Just at this time, another ghost rushed into the hall and said loudly: "The envoy of the lotus flower platform asked me to come and report. There is something strange under the lotus flower platform. I'm afraid the soul-destroying beast is about to come out!"

"What did you say?!" Yan Wang's complexion suddenly changed drastically, and he was so shocked that he immediately clapped the table. The books on the table were scattered all over the place, and he left the hall in a flash, obviously rushing to the lotus platform.

The judge heard the troubles in the little ghost's words, and the sweat on his head became more intense. Thinking of the sneaky ghost Taoist priest a few years ago, he murmured to himself: "The little tricks that Taoist priests did were not wiped out three years ago." So, why did the Soul Reaper suddenly appear?"

However, both the Naihe Bridge and the Wraith Realm had changed in vain. He raised his eyes to look in the direction of the Lotus Terrace, and finally ran in the direction of the Naihe Bridge in a hurry.

As soon as he left the gate of the palace, he saw dozens of ghosts patrolling. The judge's head flickered suddenly. Kuhai Yazhu's ghost ordered to take away so many ghosts at once. The King of Hades might not have enough manpower. Its power is astonishing, and it is also because it can annoy the sanity of ghosts in the underworld, and make those ghosts who have kept themselves safe start fighting with each other.

"An accident happened at the Lotus Terrace. You guys should hurry to the Lotus Terrace and wait for the King of Hades to send you." The judge suddenly flicked his sleeves, and with a single sentence, he transferred away the ghost office that had been guarding the front and back of the hall. Suddenly it became empty, as quiet as the deepest part of the underworld, silent.

A snow-white shadow suddenly appeared in the hall, and Tao Qinghui glanced coldly. The original cold expression was more like the ice layer on the snow mountain that has been frozen for many years, but now, there is a little bit of hatred in that indifference and disgust.

He pinched his fingers and flicked the soul-binding thread that had just been placed around the Ten Square Hall, and there was nothing unusual.The soul-binding thread is as thin as silk, which is hard to see with the naked eye. It is tied to the beams and door panels of the house. If a ghost passes by, it will vibrate, and the person holding the thread will know it.

In addition to attracting the Soul Seizing Beast and letting Cao Jingxing take away the little ghost from Naihe Bridge, Tao Qinghui also set a small fire in another place, which naturally caused Hades to burn out.

Although there may be plenty of time, it is a hell after all, so you can't stay here for too long. After checking that there were no suspicious people in the surrounding area, Tao Qinghui took a few steps up to the desk where Hades was originally working. Some messy notebooks.

After Tao Qinghui hastily scanned, there was indeed nothing he wanted.

He turned his head and glanced at Hades' room at the back of the palace. According to Yan Xing's personality, that thing might indeed be placed there.

Putting away his sleeves, Tao Qinghui took a few steps and jumped around the corridors, and in a blink of an eye, he came to the door of Hades' room, standing on the edge of the corridor, frowning and staring at the closed wooden door. At this moment, Tao Qinghui actually had some hesitation in his mind.

It has only been a quarter of an hour since the soul-snatching beast was released. Yan Xing must still be sitting in Lianhuatai at this moment. Even if Cao Jingxing had defected long ago, he would probably only stay at the Wraith Realm. No one would guess what Tao Qinghui's real purpose was. In fact, in the depths of this palace.

It was just to retrieve his belongings from many years ago, Tao Qinghui lowered his head and thought, he should never have...

Thinking of his idiot-like past decades ago, Tao Qinghui couldn't help feeling a surge of anger in his heart. With a push with both hands, the door was slowly opened.

As far as the eye can see, there is a screen with a painting of a fierce horse, and further inside, there is an antique Chinese-style room with a lot of wooden furniture, traditional Chinese calligraphy, and sandalwood. It was so gray, Tao Qinghui should have thought that he had returned to that room decades ago.

Containing his expression, Tao Qinghui, who forced himself to return to reality, stepped lightly into the room, and with a wave of his hand, the door closed behind him, quickly and lifelessly.

Tao Qinghui couldn't even tell the familiar furnishings and objects, whether it was the original house that came first, and Yan Xing imitated it after he came back, or this house came first, and Yan Xing just moved it to the ground.

A three-meter-high and five-meter-wide bookshelf stacked with books divides the room into two parts.

According to his memory, behind the bookshelf is the study room, and Yan Xing usually puts more valuable items in one place...

Flying over in a few steps, Tao Qinghui didn't even have time to consider what the exact same arrangement meant to Yan Xing. He came to the desk, reached out to touch the wooden board under the table, and pushed out a dark compartment, a piece that exuded a faint The shiny square stone was placed there, which made him happy.

Reaching out to quickly take away what he wanted, Tao Qinghui turned around, walked around the bookshelf, and wanted to leave quickly.

However, just at this moment, a deep male voice suddenly sounded in the room, and the man asked slowly: "Don't tell me you want to leave now?"

The familiar deep, menacing tone was exactly the same as the voice decades ago. When the familiar tone sounded in his ears again, Tao Qinghui's frozen expression suddenly changed drastically, his eyes widened suddenly, and his Adam's apple twitched. His eyes flashed quickly, showing both resentment and resentment, and finally there was nothing left but coldness. He turned around, and Yan Xing, who had already left, was sitting slowly on his seat, his face remained the same as before, without any change.

Tao Qinghui frowned, and a familiar figure appeared beside him as expected.

Seeing Tao Qinghui's suddenly stiff expression, Cao Jingxing sized up the two of them curiously, and said slowly, "I'm curious, why did he kill you?"

Tao Qinghui stared at the man without changing his expression, but Yan Xing who was sitting on the bed replied very naturally: "Because I fucked him once."

"You!" Tao Qinghui, who had always been cold, couldn't hold back when he said these words. Anger shot out from the bottom of his eyes. When he lifted his finger, a sharp blade was in his hand. Feng pointed at Yan Xing's neck.

However, the other party sat unhurriedly, not even raising his eyebrows.

Cao Jingxing stood aside, watching all this with interest.

"You haven't changed much." Yan Xing's lips curled up slightly, and he looked up at Tao Qinghui in front of him. The distance was so close that even Tao Qinghui could see his reflection in the other's eyes.

Tao Qinghui suddenly became a little angry, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said calmly: "You are becoming more and more cheap."

"Oh?" Yan Xing raised his eyebrows, didn't say anything, just looked at him quietly, just like 70 years ago.

After a while, Tao Qinghui quickly withdrew his sword again, and said coldly, "I want to leave it at that."

Yan Xing looked at his still tall and straight figure like a green bamboo, and couldn't help but think about the past between the two of them, so he took a moment to say: "Such criminals who disturb the underworld and intend to murder the king must naturally be tried carefully. "

Tao Qinghui frowned and looked at him without saying a word. He knew that from the moment Yan Xing found out, it was impossible to leave. He raised his jaw and asked impatiently: "Then you How do you want to deal with it?"

Well, Yan Xing was so deep in thought that he didn't answer, but raised his eyes to Cao Jingxing, the meaning in his eyes was very clear, and said, "You can go."

Cao Jingxing pursed his lips, waved his hand in a clear manner, and walked out of the house, leaving only two people who had been arguing with each other for an unknown number of years.

The grievances and hatreds in the past are gone in a blink of an eye.
