[Comprehensive myth] Underworld civil servants
Chapter 12, Wangxiang Terrace
Sitting on the bus, Gu Ning watched the scenery along the way, but she kept thinking about what she did not do well, or what went wrong, that's why Yuan Jun fell in love with Xiao Qi.
A patch of bright red suddenly appeared in the distance, too far away, Gu Ning didn't see what it was.It's just that the closer they are, Gu Ning can ask that there is a vague fragrance floating in the space, very clear and very faint.But it made her unconsciously think of her own past in the world.
As the car drove closer and closer, Gu Ning finally saw that it was a field of bright red flowers.Countless delicate and fiery red flowers stand on the side of the road, extending to the river bank not far away.Wait, Gu Ning seems to have seen something.There is a piece of white on the other side of the river, is it also a flower?
The bus finally stopped by the river, and Gu Ning got off the bus with everyone.In an instant, her eyes were filled with red Bianhua flowers. She walked to the side of the road and bent down to smell the fragrance of flowers.It's very light, without the strong aroma that I expected.Subconsciously, Gu Ning wanted to reach out to pick one, but she didn't know whether it was because of the wind or something, but her hand fell through the air.Gu Ning looked at her hand suspiciously, and suddenly heard someone making a noise behind her.
"Don't grab, don't grab, come one by one, the bridge is only this wide, don't squeeze!"
"It's nice to say don't squeeze, you should let it out! Hey, hurry up and get out of the way."
"Hey, let's go, let's go. Leave me here alone, just to wait for my wife. We have agreed to wait for her on the Naihe Bridge."
Naihe Bridge?Gu Ning's eyes fell on the bridge they were fighting for. It turned out that this was the legendary Naihe Bridge.According to legend, if there is someone who needs to wait, they can make an appointment to wait by the bridge.She looked at the last ghost who spoke, and it seemed that he had someone to wait for.
"Get out of the way, grab whatever you want one by one, line up for me!"
Suddenly, two ghosts appeared from nowhere, one in white and the other in black.The first time Gu Ning saw them, she thought of black and white impermanence.It turns out that these two famous ghosts are here to manage the order of Naihe Bridge.
"Stand up for me, and come one by one. Also, let me tell you, since you're all here, don't even think about waiting for someone here. This is not the Naihe Bridge. You can either go there or go back. It's all thought up First!" Bai Wuchang yelled impatiently at the crowd, and after he finished speaking, he glanced at everyone's reactions and said, "If you've made up your mind, come here and line up, you have to go to the Hall of the King of Hell to register first before you can register." Reincarnation is allowed."
For a while, most of the ghosts hesitated, but some ghosts walked up to Bai Wuchang without hesitation and lined up.The ghost standing in the first place saw the group of ghosts hesitating, and couldn't help muttering: "What's there to hesitate, no matter how long you wait, you still want a bowl of Meng Po soup, and forget about each other." It's clean. It's better to go directly to reincarnation, and it's over. Wouldn't it be great to forget all the bad things in the past? Why do you have to suffer back and forth in this dark place."
As he spoke, many ghosts who were hesitant to go over all walked to the back of the line, obviously they agreed with each other.
"Is there any more? If not, we will leave. It's too late to regret now, otherwise we will have to wait for the next wave." Bai Wuchang raised his eyebrows and looked at the remaining two ghosts. The other one waiting for his wife was Gu Ning.
Gu Ning lowered her head, thinking of what she saw yesterday, she resolutely followed the end of the line.That ghost was right, since a bowl of Mengpo soup can completely forget all the bad things, why should she stay in this dark hell.She decided to reincarnate with them, forget Yuan Jun, Xiao Qi, and the relationship between them that she couldn't clean up and mess up.
Bai Wuchang glanced sideways at the remaining ghost, didn't say much, and then beckoned all the ghosts to follow behind him.Gu Ning turned her head to look at the ghost for the last time, and saw him watching the team walk across the bridge from a distance, finally shook her head helplessly, walked to the river under the bridge and squatted there.It looks like they are going to wait here for a long time.
After crossing the Naihe Bridge all the way, Gu Ning discovered that there were actually white flowers blooming on this side of the river, which were exactly the same as the flowers on the other side, but the color was different.This time, she didn't have time to lower her head to smell the flowers. Although the scenery in front of her was really beautiful, it couldn't stop her determination to reincarnate.Just looking at those flowers, Gu Ning suddenly thought of a kind of flower that she had heard of before, called the Bana flower.Gu Ning heard that they are the only flowers that can bloom in hell.It is said that this flower blooms specially on the side of Huangquan Road and the bank of Wangchuan River. They are souls who do not want to be reincarnated, waiting for their lovers here.
In the palace of the king of hell, the king of hell is away on a business trip today, so only the two with the bull's head and the horse's face are left here to take care of them.No, every soul who comes over must first go to Niutou to confirm his identity, and after receiving the certificate of reincarnation, he will then go to Ma Mian to find out which one he wants to vote for.There are six realms of reincarnation. In order to prevent people from clamoring to leave as soon as they hear that they are going to enter the animal realm, all the six realms are simply marked with numbers.Before all the souls go in, they don't know which one they voted for.
The bull head and horse noodles are usually very popular with Lord Yama, but if you stay in the underworld for a long time, you will be somewhat bored, and you always think about the food brought back from the world.Most ghosts can only eat incense and other things, which are all products of the underworld, but those from the human world are different, much tastier than those from the underworld.No, seeing that it was almost time for shift change, Niutou called Ma Mian to his side in a low voice, and whispered:
"I heard that the shameless guy brought back good things yesterday. It's almost time to get off work, and there are not many ghosts left. You should watch here, buddy. I'll go find that guy to get the goods."
"Bring good things again?" Ma Mian was obviously a little excited, which meant that he could have a good meal again, but immediately he said worriedly: "But it's not off work after all, why don't you go now? If the prince finds out What should I do?"
"Hey, what you said. This is not to get goods for Meng Po, but to pick up things along the way. This is also a tolerance. Tolerance, do you know!" Niu Tou emphasized again and again, pointing to Ma Mian, even if the prince asks , There can also be a saying, "Besides, the soul office is not far from here. How much time will it take us to drive there. Maybe we can come back before work."
Ma Mian thought about it, and it was the same reason, so he didn't say any more and let it go.Besides, he has stayed in this hell for a long time, and he also wants to try something new.It's just that if the bull-headed horse-faced man knew that at the end of the team, there was another ghost who followed him to be reincarnated without formal procedures, he probably wouldn't be so careless.
At this time, it was almost time for the ghost messengers to get off work. After finishing the reincarnation of the last few souls, they could relax.The reincarnated ghosts lined up to the table one by one, filled in their names, and took the number plate from Ma Mian's hand. The team seemed orderly.
The one standing at the end of the line at this moment is Gu Ning.On the way, she saw a ghost with a cow's head running out of the hall in a hurry, but what does it matter to her?Thinking of what she saw just now in front of the Sansheng Stone, this strengthened Gu Ning's determination to reincarnate.It turned out that from the very beginning, she was not the one who was bound by Yuan Jun's marriage on the Sansheng Stone.
When she came to the table, Gu Ning didn't look carefully at the others, but just filled in her own information according to the format filled in by the person in front.After she finished filling it out, she put down the pen in her hand, walked to Ma Mian to get her own number, turned around and left the hall.
On the 3rd, she didn't know what it meant, but as long as she could be reincarnated, it would be fine anywhere.Following behind the team, she came to the next stop - Wangxiang Terrace.This is the place where they look at their relatives for the last time before reincarnation.
As soon as she went up, Gu Ning saw her parents in the distance, they were tidying up their room.Mother kept touching her tears, and opened her mouth intermittently, as if she was talking about something.Sitting in the house, the father who had always been serious and unsmiling, seemed to have heard his mother's speech, and secretly wiped his nose.Seeing this, Gu Ning cried. She squatted on the ground and cried loudly.She seemed to want to tell her parents all her grievances, but she knew clearly that they would not hear them.
She was the last ghost to go to Wangxiang Terrace, so there was no one urging her behind her.At this time, the scene in the distance changed, and it was Xiao Qi's figure that appeared.She was discharged from the hospital and was sitting at her desk writing.Suddenly, she raised her head and glanced at the photo frame on the table.The photo in the frame cannot be seen on the screen, but Gu Ning knows that it is a group photo of the three of them when they went out together.Seeing that the photo frame was a bit dirty, Xiao Qi picked up the cloth on the table and wiped the photo frame before putting it down.After a while, she picked up her cell phone and made a call.
The screen switched again, and this time, Yuan Jun's figure appeared.He was lying on the bed with a photo in his hand, which belonged to Xiaoqi.Suddenly, his phone rang.Gu Ning thought, it was probably Xiaoqi who called.She turned her head and was about to leave, but suddenly saw Yuan Jun's face became tense.What's wrong?Gu Ning was about to turn her head to look, when suddenly she heard the ghost messenger in front shouting:
"Have you seen it? It's time to go, and it will be too late."
Gu Ning quickly wiped away the non-existent tears, and took a last look at the distant scene.Yuan Jun went to the hospital. Could it be that Xiaoqi's illness had relapsed?How is she, all right?
Gu Ning suddenly realized that she was still caring about Xiao Qi, she obviously wanted to forget them.She has already arrived at the Naihe Bridge, and is also waiting for the deeds in the Palace of the King of the Underworld. Now she is only waiting for a bowl of Meng Po soup before she will be reincarnated.Just thinking about the situation of her parents just now made her worry again.She suddenly wondered whether she was too impulsive to decide to forget them so hastily.But if she doesn't do this, she doesn't know how to face her future life.Whenever she thinks about Yuan Jun and Xiao Qi, she feels as if a thorn has been pricked in her heart, making her eager to forget all this.She knew that she was just escaping, but she had no choice. At this moment, the only thing she could do to make herself feel better was to escape.
At the last stop, they came to Meng Po's shop, where they would drink Meng Po's soup, and then forget all the past and re-enter reincarnation.
Looking at the tea shop in front of him, there are several tables and chairs outside.There were very few people, just sitting there sparsely.A young woman in her twenties walked among the guests in an apron, serving them bowls of Mengpo soup.
Gu Ning looked at the bowl of soup in front of her, and suddenly thought that the soup 545 gave her that night was also called Mengpo soup. 545 said, that is Yi Tang.And now in front of her is Wang Tang.Thinking of this, Gu Ning couldn't help muttering: "Why, there are two kinds of Mengpo soup?"
Gu Ning's bowl of soup was served last. At this time, the young woman who served the tea soup was standing there with a sigh of relief seeing that today's work was almost done. When she heard Gu Ning's words, she couldn't help laughing: "It seems that the girl is I drank my sister's memory soup."
"Sister?" Gu Ning raised her head curiously and looked at the other party, "Could it be that there are two people in the legendary Meng Po?"
"Hehe, the girl is joking." The other party smiled, she is very beautiful, with the charm of a mature woman, "Meng Po only has one person, and she is my mother. In the early years, she specialized in selling Wang Tang, and later handed over the business to us Sister, I found that in addition to forgetting the pain and hope of the human world, some ghosts want to remember the beauty of the past. That's why I invented the Reminiscence Soup."
"Remember the beauty of the past?" Gu Ning thought of the feeling of happiness that filled her heart when 545 gave her memory soup.
"A ghost, even though it is painful when it is alive, there will be good things in the end. Those good things are worthy of their memories and the motivation for them not to reincarnate."
A patch of bright red suddenly appeared in the distance, too far away, Gu Ning didn't see what it was.It's just that the closer they are, Gu Ning can ask that there is a vague fragrance floating in the space, very clear and very faint.But it made her unconsciously think of her own past in the world.
