He was a seven-foot-tall man, but now he was crying like a child.
Li Yuanba couldn't stand it anymore. He took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it over.
Zhong Kui did not stand on ceremony. He took it and wiped the tears off his face.
"Lord Judge, please make the decision!"
Zhong Kui was the ghost-catching heavenly master that was praised by everyone in the future.
During the reign of Emperor Wude, when Li Yuan was the emperor, Zhong Kui had once passed the Jinshi examination.
However, when he entered the hall to meet the Saint, Li Yuan found him ugly.
In a fit of rage, he crashed into the hall.
Normally, Zhong Kui should have been conferred the title of Judge in the netherworld after his death.
Why was he still a lonely ghost after so many years?
Lin Xiu couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart.
"What do you want to do?" Lin Xiu asked.
"Although I died, I still have a grudge in my heart. If it wasn't for the Retired Emperor's words, I wouldn't have died in the main hall. Even though I'm now a lonely soul, I still have regrets in my heart. If the Retired Emperor can personally acknowledge me as a Jinshi, then my wish will be fulfilled!”Zhong Kui said.
"Ever since I died, my soul has never left the palace and has been wandering here every day. If I hadn't accidentally discovered those seven little ghosts causing trouble here, I wouldn't have appeared.”
Hearing this, Lin Xiu nodded.
Zhong Kui was also kind.
Although he was despised back then and died in the hall, he did not complain at all.
Not only that, but he also guarded the palace every day to exorcise demons and ghosts.
However, he still had a wish in his heart, which was to get Li Yuan to personally acknowledge him as a Jinshi. Only then could he be free.
But there was one thing that made Lin Xiu feel strange.
Even if Zhong Kui had an unfinished wish in his heart, he could stay in the world for so long.
There was still something fishy about it.
Lin Xiu smiled: " This matter is not difficult. But let me ask you, after you died, there was no ghost officer who came to capture you?"”
"Reaper? What are reapers?" Zhong Kui was stunned.
"It's the officials of the underworld who are responsible for bringing the recently dead to the underworld for trial!”Lin Xiu said.
"This…I won't hide this from you, Lord Judge. When I died, there were indeed two Yin spirits who came to lock me up. However, I still have a wish to fulfill, so how can I leave with them? They were all beaten away by me!" Zhong Kui said.
"Ran away?"
Zhong Kui nodded heavily.
Lin Xiu was speechless. No wonder it was like this. So the reapers who came to capture him had already been beaten back by this fool.
If that was the case, wouldn't he become an illegal citizen?
Lin Xiu frowned slightly. He had to personally go to the underworld to investigate and see what was going on with Zhong Kui.
It was just past midnight and it was still early.
There was still time for him to make a trip to the underworld.
Lin Xiu didn't delay any further. He let Li Yuanba watch Zhong Kui and his body.
He sat cross-legged on the low couch and formed a seal with his hands.
Because of his previous experience, it was much easier for his primordial spirit to leave his body this time.
After his primordial spirit left his body, he walked out of the hall.
This time, he didn't need Li Yuanba to lead the way.
He directly stepped into the Ghost Gate and walked towards Sun Guangxiao's main hall.
Ever since the last time, Lin Xiu caused a ruckus in the Netherworld and captured the Evil Judge Wu Dian.
Lin Xiu's fame spread throughout the underworld.
Almost all the ghost soldiers and reapers knew him.
In fact, the judges of the other three halls had even given orders.
He could offend anyone, but he must not provoke Lin Xiu. Otherwise, he would bear the consequences.
When Lin Xiu returned to the underworld.
All the ghost soldiers and reapers smiled apologetically when they saw him.
He was unusually respectful.
Lin Xiu was still very puzzled. He thought in his heart that the service attitude of this Inferno had improved a lot compared to the last time he came.
Not long after, they arrived in front of Sun Guangxiao's hall.
It was no different from the scene he saw last time.
Outside the main hall, there were many dark souls waiting to be judged and cut off karma.
At the entrance of the hall, a ghost soldier hurried forward.
"Greetings, Lord Judge!"
"Is Judge Sun in the hall?" Lin Xiu nodded.”
"Yes, yes, yes. Please wait a moment, Lord Judge. I'll go in and report first!”
Lin Xiu nodded and did not make things difficult for this Yin soldier.
Not long after he entered, he heard a burst of laughter coming from inside.
Then, Sun Guangxiao walked out with a red face.
"Hahaha, you're here, brother?"
When Lin Xiu heard this, he hurriedly bowed and said,""Brother Sun, how have you been?"
"Hahaha, ever since you came to the netherworld last time and captured that Wu Dian, you have become famous for a while. Why, who are you here to capture this time?”Sun Guangxiao asked with a smile.
Lin Xiu shook his head." This time, I'm not here to arrest anyone. I'm here to investigate a person. I hope you can open Brother Sun's Life and Death Book and take a look!"”
"Oh? Read the Life and Death Book? What's so difficult about this? Come, come, come, please come in!”
As he spoke, Sun Guangxiao let Lin Xiu into the hall.
After entering, Sun Guangxiao ordered someone to bring his Life and Death Book over.
The four judges of the Netherworld had their own duties.
Some reward good, some punish evil, some investigate, and some control the law.
It was said that after Wei Zheng died, he was appointed as the Department of Merit Rewards. All the ghosts who did good deeds in life were arranged by him and rewarded after death. In the Six Paths of Reincarnation, they either became high-ranking officials or became pigs, dogs, cows, and sheep.
Judge Wu Dian, who was previously in charge of punishing evil, was mainly responsible for those who had committed many crimes when they were alive.
After his death, he was sentenced according to the 'four noes and four noes' of the underworld.
The fourth is disloyalty, unfilial, unkind and unjust.
The fourth is rudeness, injustice, dishonesty and shamelessness.
Misdemeanors were lightly punished, while felonies were severely punished.
According to the severity of their sins, they would be sent to the 18 levels of hell to suffer.
Although these four judges had different duties, each of them had a Life and Death Book.
When Sun Guangxiao's book was brought over.
Lin Xiu opened it in front of him.
It recorded the names of all the people in the world, as well as their karma, blessings, evil thoughts, and the date of life and death.
Lin Xiu quickly flipped through and went through all the names.
In the end, he still could not find Zhong Kui's name.
Sun Guangxiao couldn't stand it anymore.
"What's the name of the person you want to investigate?" he asked with a frown. Where do you live?"
"His name is Zhong Kui, also known as Zhengnan. He is from Zhongnan Mountain and Zhongnan County!”Lin Xiu said.
Sun Guangxiao took the Life and Death Book and helped to look through it.
When he flipped to Mount Zhongnan, there were many people with the surname Zhong, but he did not find Zhong Kui's name.
Instantly, Lin Xiu wasn't the only one puzzled.
Even Sun Guangxiao felt strange.
"Wait, why is there a missing page here?”
Right at this time, Lin Xiu discovered that one of the pages seemed to have traces of being torn apart.
Sun Guangxiao was also shocked.
"This, this…Men!"
