The Wangchuan River is as blue as jade, and the flowers on the other side of the river are as enchanting as fire.

Xiao Shunhua obediently followed the two ghost messengers to the dazed and invisible road ahead, looked around when he was bored, but he didn't expect to see such a wonderful scene.

She gave a "tsk" and said with a smile: "It turns out that the scenery in this underworld is so magnificent. Although it is not comparable to my Lion Garden, it has a special flavor. It seems that this folklore is really unbelievable!"

Perhaps it was because of her good attitude, not being noisy, making trouble, or resisting along the way, and the ghost messenger was also willing to talk to her to relieve boredom.

The ghost messenger on her left smiled "hehe" and said, "You don't know anything about that."

Xiao Shunhua raised his eyebrows and was very appreciative: "I would like to hear the details."

The ghost said: "There is nothing on this road to the Yellow Springs. What you see is actually what you thought of."

Xiao Shunhua nodded suddenly: "It seems that all the horror legends about Huangquan Road come from their own sources?"

The ghost said: "The so-called empty hole does not come from the wind, that is the truth."

Xiao Shunhua smiled: "That's true."

The ghost also laughed.

With this smile, the distance between her and the two ghosts seemed to be much closer, Xiao Shunhua took the opportunity to say: "It's been so long, and I haven't asked elder brother Gao's name yet!"

The ghost guard shook his head, the half-foot tongue dangling from his mouth was dangling in front of his chest, Xiao Shunhua looked at it, and was worried for him.

The ghost guard said: "I've been dead for a long time, and I don't remember my name. Now, people call me Bai Wuchang."

Xiao Shunhua arched his hands: "So it's Big Brother Bai, my surname is Xiao Mingjin, and my surname is Shunhua."

Bai Wuchang said: "I know, I know, before seducing the soul, the book of life and death must be checked."

"The two are really loyal to their duties!" Xiao Shunhua praised, and then looked at another ghost messenger, "This one must be Brother Heiwuchang."

Hei Wuchang snorted, and said coldly, "Don't try to get involved!"

Xiao Shunhua smiled, and didn't care about Hei Wuchang's attitude: "The road to Huangquan is long, I just want to talk to you two, to relieve each other's loneliness, and I don't mean to build a relationship."

Bai Wuchang hurriedly chimed in: "That's right! Old Hei, the majestic emperor on earth, do you still need to have a relationship with you and me?"

Hei Wuchang raised his eyebrows, noncommittal, but in his heart he felt that this emperor in the world was extremely powerful. In this short period of time, he had already made casual acquaintance with Bai Wuchang, which made Bai Wuchang have a good impression of her.

After hearing Bai Wuchang's words, Xiao Shunhua was a little curious: "Listening to what Brother Bai said, what privileges does the Son of Heaven have in the underworld?"

This is not a secret, Bai Wuchang is pleasing to her eyes, and he doesn't mind selling favors, so he told her in advance: "Speaking of which, not every emperor in the world has it, only a wise king like you can enjoy it. But not It's a privilege."

Xiao Shunhua made an expression of listening attentively, motioning for him to continue talking.

Seeing her support, Bai Wuchang became even more interested: "All enlightened monarchs, especially those with great achievements like you, have great merits and virtues. This merits and virtues naturally have many benefits, but they are not suitable for people with strong Yin Qi, It is not a good thing for the underworld with many unjust souls. Therefore, the underworld will give priority to arranging you to reincarnate, so as not to cause any unexpected impact on the underworld."

"Is there another theory?" Xiao Shunhua was extremely surprised.

Bai Wuchang smiled complacently, and continued to show off: "Think about it, this merit can offset karma. There are so many people in the underworld who cannot be reincarnated due to evil deeds in their lifetime, but anyone with a little bit of merit can be reincarnated! And what he deserves I haven't finished my sins yet, isn't this messed up!"

"Indeed." Xiao Shunhua agreed very much, "There is no rule without rules. Whether in the world or in the underworld, order must not be disrupted!"

These words were so decisive and sincere that Hei Wuchang looked at her a few more times and said: "It seems that you are really a good emperor."

Xiao Shunhua smiled at him, and said: "This is Mr. Huang who is enlightened, old, and also learning the art of Shangjun."

Both Black and White Wuchang nodded, expressing their understanding.

I don't know how many years these two ghosts have existed, and how many things they have seen. Naturally, they know that Huang Lao's theory advocates observing the existing rules and not interfering with things outside the rules; while the legalist Shangjun's art emphasizes trust and order .

These two theories are completely opposite, but they also have something in common, that is, to abide by the system.

The three ghosts were talking, when the fog in front of them cleared up, suddenly the two gray stone gates burst open, Xiao Shunhua looked up, and there were three simple and vigorous characters engraved on the lintel, but she didn't recognize any of them.

Bai Wuchang said: "Fengdu City is here, please."

Only then did she realize that those three characters were "Fengducheng".

Seeing her staring at the door lintel, Bai Wuchang explained: "That is an ancient inscription, which has never been circulated in the mortal world."

"I see." Xiao Shunhua nodded, and followed Black and White Wuchang into the city.

If it weren't for the gloomy and gloomy situation, this Fengdu city would be no different from other mortal cities, they were all crushed one after another.

It's just that, in the mortal city, people come and go, but in Fengdu city, it's ghosts.

"Candied haws, candied haws, the latest eyeball-shaped candied haws—"

"Candy cakes, selling sugar cakes, fried sugar cakes—"

"Human brain, human brain, smooth and tender hot human brain, pass by, don't miss it—"

"Selling bone meal—"

"..."

The crowd of ghosts was bustling, and the hawkers on both sides of the road were also in order. Although there was an endless stream of hawking, they did not block the road at all.

Xiao Shunhua couldn't help but nodded, and asked casually: "Whose rule is this, not bad, not bad!"

Bai Wuchang laughed dumbfoundedly.

Xiao Shunhua was a little embarrassed, and smiled shyly: "I'm used to it, I'm used to it!"

When she was alive, she often inspected places, and when she saw that the governance was good, she would give her two compliments. First, it was to encourage local officials, and second, it was also to motivate officials from other places.

"It doesn't matter," Bai Wuchang couldn't help laughing, "Emperor Fengdu will be very happy if he knows that his rule has been praised by a wise king."

The city was huge, but Black and White Impermanence took her to shrink into an inch, and she walked through it in a short time, and reached the main hall of Fengdu in the center.

And Emperor Fengdu and Hades of the Ten Palaces work here.

According to the past practice, the Mingjun from the human world is taken directly to the King of the Wheel, and after the life and death book is checked by Cui Pan, reincarnation is arranged according to the amount of merit.When it was Xiao Shunhua's turn, he was no exception.

Black and White Impermanence took her into the Temple of the Wheel, Cui Pan read the book of life and death, and played the King of the Wheel: "My lord, according to merit, this next life will still be the fate of the Son of Heaven."

King Zhuanlun was about to pronounce the sentence, but he caught a glimpse of the bitter expression on His Highness Xiao Jin's face, and couldn't help asking: "Why, the fate of the Son of Heaven is already the most precious fate in the world, but you are not happy?"

Xiao Shunhua said bitterly: "Do you have any misunderstanding about the word 'most expensive'?"

"Oh?" The Wheel-Turning King became interested, "Let's hear it."

Xiao Shunhua said: "The emperor on earth gets up earlier than chickens, sleeps later than dogs, works more than cows, and eats worse than pigs. If he does well, he should do it well. If he does not do well... Hehe, I don’t know how many official histories and unofficial histories are worrying about lack of material!”

Hearing what she said was so miserable, the Wheel-Turning King felt sorry for her, and said amusedly, "Then what kind of fetus do you want to reincarnate in your next life?"

Xiao Shunhua thought for a while and said: "You don't need a lot of money, just enough is enough; you don't need a lot of power, you can do what you want. You can be carefree every day, don't worry about it, father is kind and son is filial, happy and happy, and you can live a long life. Hmm ,That's all."

Now, even Cui Pan couldn't help laughing, and said: "If there is such a good fetus, the king himself will take it first, and it will be your turn?"

Xiao Shunhua also knew that this was just thinking about it, he waved his hands and said, "Take it as if I didn't say it. It's just that I have an unfeeling request, and I would like to ask the king to be kind to you."

The Wheel-Running King was in a good mood and took a sip of tea: "Let's talk, let's talk."

"Hmm... I don't know where my father went?"

She really had to worry about her father.Most of the reason why she has such a great achievement is due to her father's inaction during his reign.

Zhuanlun Wang said: "It's not a big deal, Cui Pan, let her check it out."

Neither of them noticed that as soon as Xiao Shunhua's question came out, both Black and White Impermanence and Cui Pan's expressions were unnatural for a moment.

Cui Pan said: "If you ask Xiao You'an, then there is no need to investigate."

Xiao Shunhua felt a "thump" in his heart, already having a bad premonition.

Sure enough, when Zhuanlun Wang asked, he heard Cui Juan say: "Because Xiao You'an overturned Meng Potang, he has been stranded in the underworld, unable to reincarnate, and lingers at Wangxiangtai all day long. Presumably Xiao Jin died today, and he will come See you at Fengdu."

Xiao Shunhua quickly asked: "Staying in the underworld, will it hinder my father?"

"Of course there are." Cui Pan said, "It's not that he's a traitor in the book of life and death and can't be reincarnated. After staying in the underworld for a long time, his soul will inevitably be injured by the evil spirit of the underworld until he completely dies."

Xiao Shunhua's heart trembled, he lowered his eyebrows and raised his eyebrows, and he had an idea: "Excuse me, my lord, can I exchange my merits for a bowl of Meng Po soup for my father?"

The wheel-running king smiled "hehe" and said, "You are a filial daughter! It's a pity that Mengpo soup is a product of heaven and earth, and it has its own destiny. A person only has one bowl in his life. Not to mention merit, even luck can't change it!"

Xiao Shunhua immediately asked again: "Give him my bowl, can I?"

As soon as this statement came out, the whole hall was shocked.

After a long time, I heard the King of the Wheel asking: "Do you know what it means to have no Meng Po Tang?"

Xiao Shunhua said: "My father is a lesson from the past."

The Wheel-Running King: "But you still want to give it to him?"

Xiao Shunhua: "Yes, I have made up my mind!"

The author has something to say:

Although everyone may know it, the author can't help showing off.

In Huang-Lao theory, people are encouraged to fully abide by the existing laws and rules, but official intervention is not advocated for things that are not stipulated by the law.

Take a chestnut: If the law does not stipulate that murder is a crime (of course, this is impossible), then the government will not be able to control people who kill people.

But the Legalists wished that there were regulations on how many times the common people went to the latrines a day, which really respected order.
