Even though he was already mentally prepared.
But the other party said it out loud.
Lin Yu still felt her heart beating.
Living people traveling the underworld!
Next, every word that Qu Jingming said had to be recorded in detail.
Then, it would be listed in the highest-level file!
"Elder Qu, wait a moment."
Although he was already impatient.
However, Lin Yu waved his hand and interrupted him. He took out the walkie-talkie on his waist and said,""Zhang Ying."
"Captain Lin?"
"What's the matter?" Zhang Ying's voice came from inside.”
"Bring people over now and seal off Elder Qu's ward. Clear the surrounding rooms and don't allow anyone to exist in the corridor!”
"This is an order." Lin Yu ordered solemnly.
"Yes."
A voice came from the other end of the walkie-talkie.
Although he was puzzled.
But since the other party spoke to him in such a tone, Zhang Ying would execute it meticulously.
It took less than five minutes.
The entire corridor had been cleared out, and a large number of Ghost Commanders were guarding every corner of the corridor.
After a long consideration, Lin Yu let Zhang Ying in.
After all, he was also a peak A-class ghost tamer.
Although he didn't have two peak A-class ghosts, he wasn't considered to be at the top.
However, Zhang Ying had been in the Imperial Capital for so many years and was conscientious.
Therefore, he also had the authority to view the highest-level files.
After finding out what happened to Qu Jingming…
Zhang Ying was also dumbfounded.
"Elder Qu." Lin Yu prepared herself and looked at the old man in front of her expectantly,""Please speak."
"There's no need to be too hopeful."
Qu Jingming felt a little embarrassed.
"I did make a trip to the netherworld this time." He shook his head.”
"I personally walked through the Road to the Underworld and stepped through the gates of hell. I even saw many gods of the underworld and that red-robed judge.”
"However, I can't tell you the details.”
Lin Yu frowned slightly.
Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something.
He pointed at the ground beneath his feet.""Are you not allowed to reveal it?"
"Yes."
Qu Jingming looked ashamed."Sigh, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
"This old master clearly knows some things, but due to the rules, I dare not say much.”
"I can only tell you a few limited things.”
"Lin girl, remember the name I'm going to say.”
Lin Yu took out a pen and paper and listened attentively.
Qu Jingming slowly opened his mouth and reported more than a dozen names.
"These are all highly respected elders in Great Chang City.”
"Send someone to keep an eye on them in secret, but don't disturb their normal lives.”
"Within seven days, an old man will pass away, including me.”
"At that time, there are some things that I might be able to tell you.”
"That's all I can say."
Qu Jingming sighed slightly, his face revealing a look of regret.
He was definitely not greedy for the rewards from the Ghost Control Bureau.
After all, he did not have many days left to live.
No matter how generous the reward was, it was meaningless.
This old man had dedicated his entire life to the Great Chang and Great Xia.
Therefore, he only wanted to take advantage of his death.
He wanted to help the ghost tamers of Great Xia understand more secrets.
Perhaps in the future, he would have more confidence when facing calamities and tribulations.
Fewer casualties.
"An old man will die within seven days?”
Lin Yu narrowed her eyes as she pondered.
Her mind was racing,"Before the end of their lives, the underworld invited the souls of these people to go."”
"Most importantly, this group of elders are all well-known good people in Great Chang City. They have done countless good deeds.”
"Now, there will be people who will die within seven days. Combined with the legends of the underworld that have been passed down,"
Lin Yu suddenly widened her eyes.”
"There will be an old man who will be conferred the title of Hell Divine Position!”
Even she herself felt uneasy because of this speculation.
Mortals could also work in the netherworld?
If the truth was really as she speculated, then in the future...
Other than the Ghost Summoner.
In Great Xia, it was very likely that there would be another path that could resist malicious ghosts.
Accumulate merit, the path to the Netherworld God's ascension!
Moreover, this path was extremely powerful and there was no end to it!
Although he was shocked, he still wanted to be on the safe side.
Lin Yu didn't tell Qu Jingming about her guesses.
He only wrote it down in detail on the document in his hand.
"I'm truly ashamed." "No more information." Qu Jingming sighed.”
"You've given us enough help!”
Lin Yu closed the notebook and bowed to the old man in front of her,""Great Xia will forever remember everything you have done.”
Zhang Ying followed suit.
"Then have a good rest. We won't disturb you any longer.”
Lin Yu glanced at Qu Jingming's tired face and left the ward with Zhang Ying after giving him some advice.
Qu Jingming yawned and closed his eyes to rest.
Traveling to the netherworld and writing examination papers.
It had consumed too much of his energy.
Outside the door.
Lin Yu handed the notebook to Zhang Ying.""Uncle Zhang."
"I'll leave this matter to you.”
"I plan to make use of this time to break through to S class.”
"Don't worry, Captain Lin." "I'll do it myself!" Zhang Ying took it solemnly.”
.........
In the Judge Hall.
Su Hen had already read through the other old men's papers.
But none of them were satisfactory.
After all, although they were a good family, they were still a good family.
However, he still had no experience in dealing with ghosts, so he could only write based on his intuition.
From the looks of it…
In the future, if he wanted to confer the soul of an ordinary person as the Yin God, he would have to do so.
He couldn't just let him take up his post.
He also had to follow the other employees of the underworld and train for a few years before he could take charge of his own affairs.
He stacked the papers on the side.
Su Hen picked up the last one and glanced at the signature.
Qu Jingming.
The paper was filled with words.
He skipped the first question and looked at the rest first.
It had to be said that being the captain of the Ghost Control Bureau for decades was indeed different.
Qu Jingming answered all kinds of questions in an orderly manner.
At least, in Su Hen's opinion, there was nothing wrong with it.
At the same time that they strictly enforced the rules, they also gave many more lenient methods, making the cold rules seem more humane.
As for the first question.
Qu Jingming's answer was that if one had the heart to do good, good would also need to be rewarded. Unintentional evil, evil should be punished!
Surprise appeared in Su Hen's eyes.
Judging from Qu Jingming's reaction when he first saw the test questions.
He should be familiar with the story of the City God.
Qu Jingming should also know the ending of the story.
It was Scholar who passed the exam and really became a City God.
In other words.
If you do good with your heart, you will not be rewarded even if you do good. If you do evil without heart, you will not be punished even if you do evil.
This was the correct answer to the first question.
In the end, he still gave a different opinion.
"Interesting."
Su Hen chuckled and continued reading.
What Qu Jingming wrote was not just those 12 words.
Below, he even attached his own opinion.
His meaning was simple.
If there was someone who pretended to be a good person and did good things every day with the intention of doing bad things.
But in the end, an accident happened and the bad thing didn't happen.
He had done good deeds all his life and pretended to be a good person all his life.
Then he was a good person!
After his lifespan was exhausted and he went to the underworld, he needed to be rewarded.
As for the other person, he had the intention of doing good.
However, due to various accidents and his own reasons, it led to the deaths of others.
Or perhaps something bad had happened.
Even if he had good intentions.
But in the future, when he went to the underworld, he would still be punished!
At most, they would consider the situation and reduce the punishment a little.
Inferno was not a workplace.
There was no need to consider this person's temperament or his future changes.
The netherworld judged whether a soul should be punished and whether it could be reincarnated into a good life through the merits and demerits of a person when they were alive.
Therefore, he had no choice.
In the netherworld, we should judge cases according to their deeds, not their hearts!
As for filial piety, it made sense.
As long as he did his best to support his parents.
Even if his family was poor, he could only give his parents steamed buns and dried vegetables for every meal.
In the future, when he was judged by the underworld, he could also be judged as filial.
Because he had done his best to give the best he could to his parents.
This could also be considered a "trace".
It could be considered an action, not just a "heart".
She looked at Qu Jingming's explanation.
Su Hen could not help but nod his head slightly. A look of approval appeared in his eyes.
Indeed.
The soul entering the netherworld meant that his life was over.
What the Netherworld wanted to do was to judge his life's merits and demerits, and then put an end to it.
As for what he was thinking in his heart and what his goal was.
This wasn't something the Netherworld needed to consider.
Doing good deeds while alive was merit.
When you do evil, you have sin.
Unknowingly, he had finished reading the entire paper.
Su Hen put down the piece of paper and let out a long breath.
"My lord."
White Impermanence, who was standing beside him, came forward and asked carefully,""How do you feel about this Qu Jingming?”
"Not bad." Su Hen nodded.”
Hearing this, the smile on White Impermanence's face widened slightly.
"You seem quite happy.”Su Hen glanced at him and asked casually.
"That's right."
"I wouldn't dare to deceive you, my lord," White Impermanence said with a smile.”
"Last night when we sent Duke Qu back, we had a good chat.”
"If we can be colleagues in the future, we will definitely become good friends.”
Su Hen nodded.”
"Otherwise, he wouldn't be loved by so many mortals.”
"Being friends with him is indeed a pleasant thing.”
The monarch and the minister conversed softly in the hall.
Time passed silently.
Soon, night fell again.
When the moon was high up in the sky, an uninvited guest came to the Town God Temple of Liu Village.
He had witnessed the horror of the God of Hell with his own eyes.
As a result, the soldiers that were originally stationed around the Shing Wong Temple were all withdrawn.
The Ghost Control Bureau didn't even dare to install a camera.
Now that they had confirmed Lord Shing Wong's existence, there was no need to worry about the safety of this place.
For ordinary people.
If he encountered a malicious ghost…
Perhaps the City God Temple was more reliable than the Ghost Control Bureau.
As for order…
After experiencing the Shing Wong's dream and the old man's oath that day.
No one dared to behave atrociously in the Shing Wong Temple. They were afraid that they would be disrespectful to the gods and incur the Shing Wong's anger.
It was also because of this that the Ghost Control Bureau allowed Liu Village to do as it pleased.
Flames rose in the hall, and the face of a middle-aged man was printed.
He was wearing a shirt and trousers, and a pair of worn-out sneakers.
There was a pair of small eyes on his long face, giving him a shifty look.
Xu Heshi was already 35 years old this year.
He was lazy and had a bad personality.
Relying on the house and inheritance left behind by his parents before they died, he managed to get a wife.
Unfortunately, he became addicted to gambling.
He lost all his money and his house, and in the end, he had to borrow money.
His wife and children couldn't stand it anymore and left secretly three years ago.
He had also given up on himself and lived a life of drinking for the present.
However, some things had happened recently.
He saw an opportunity to make a fortune.
City God Pendant!
The pendant that he had obtained from the City God Temple was a real amulet.
If he carried it with him, he could resist the attacks of ghosts to a certain extent.
For ordinary people, this was simply a second life!
However, ten Shing Wong Pendants appeared every day.
Moreover, they were all taken away by special personnel in black uniforms.
Ordinary people might not even get one in ten days to half a month.
Jin Ling City was fine.
In the other cities of the Great Xia Kingdom.
In the black market, this kind of Shing Wong pendant had already been sold for tens of millions!
After all, there were still many rich people in this world.
Almost all the rich people were not afraid of death.
Ordinary people were afraid of the Shing Wong's majesty, so they never dared to stay in the Shing Wong Temple after dark.
However, Xu He was not afraid.
In any case, he was already at his wit's end and still owed millions of dollars in debt.
So what if Lord Shing Wong was angry?
The barefooted were not afraid of those wearing shoes.
Thinking of this…
In the hall, those hideous statues didn't seem so scary anymore.
He rubbed his hands together and started searching around.
However, two hours passed.
They strolled through the entire Shing Wong Temple and searched every corner.
He didn't even see the pendant.
And during this process.
Xu Heshi raised his head more than once to look at the Shing Wong statue.
The statue's face was illuminated by the dancing flames.
She lowered her gaze slightly, as if she was looking at him.
However, what Xu Heshi did not know was…
In the Underworld Space.
Su Hen and a few Yin Si gods were all watching every move in the temple.
Especially Su Hen.
He looked at the middle-aged man with a playful gaze.
The City God Pendant was not forged by the temple attendant, Old Man Zhang.
Instead, Su Hen had ordered his underlings to use the power of incense to forge them.
Ten pills a day, no more, no less.
When the sun just rose, it was placed on the altar.
Every time, the people from the Ghost Control Bureau would be the first to arrive and collect the pendants.
Of course, they didn't dare to take them all.
They would leave one on it for the fated person.
This pendant would be kept by Old Man Zhang, who would choose a good family to send it to every day.
Another half an hour passed.
Xu Heshi finally became impatient.
He wiped the sweat off his forehead and sat in front of the altar, panting.
He didn't find anything, but he was exhausted!
There was no money in the Merit Box.
Every night before Old Man Zhang left, he would clean up the offerings on the table and the Merit Box.
Thirsty and hungry.
He had worked so hard for so long in vain. Coupled with the frustration of not getting anything, an unknown anger rose in his heart.
Xu Heshi raised his head and looked at the tall statue of the City God under the fire.
In an instant, a thought appeared in his mind.
If there was really no other way, why not move this statue of the City God away?
The red date sized Shing Wong pendant could fetch tens of millions on the black market.
How much could such a huge statue of the City God be sold for?
If he invited her home, wouldn't he no longer have to be afraid of malicious ghosts?
His mind was in a mess, and he had some thoughts of revenge.
Who told you not to bless me with my fortune?
You even made me work so hard for so long in vain, and I didn't even see a shadow.
Since that's the case, I'll just take this broken statue of yours and sell it!
However, Xu Heshi had never considered it.
How was he going to transport this two meter tall Shing Wong statue out of the city?
How could he get it to the black market in other cities without making a sound?
He did as he was told.
Xu Heshi stood up and pretended to bow.""Lord Shing Wong, please don't blame me."
"When I earn money and pay off my debts, I'll definitely come over to repay my wish.”
"I'll use good materials to build a bigger and more exquisite statue for you!”
After a simple bow.
Xu Heshi took off his coat and tore it into long strips.
According to his judgment.
These Shing Wong statues were basically hollow pieces of wood that had been dried in the sun and were fixed behind the altar.
Therefore, it was very light.
As long as the nails on the ground were removed.
They could easily move it away.
After he went around the altar, he was pleasantly surprised to find that Lord Shing Wong was not fixed to the ground.
That would be even more convenient.
Xu Heshi tied the statue with a cloth and carried it on his back.
It was alright. It wasn't considered heavy.
After all, he was an adult man, so he could still afford such a small weight.
He first carried them to the outskirts of the city and hid them in a corner.
After a few days, all the channels would be arranged and they would be shipped to other cities.
Xu Heshi had a good plan.
Carrying the statue of the City God on his back, he walked towards the door.
However, what he did not notice was…
In the City God Temple.
All the statues were staring at him.
As Xu Heshi walked out of the door, the heads of the sculptures slowly turned.
At the entrance.
A gust of cold wind blew.
The fire in Xu Heshi's heart was extinguished, and his mind was much clearer.
He turned his head to take a look.
Inside the temple, countless ferocious statues of gods flickered in the fire.
Their eyes were like copper bells, and their expressions were fierce, as if they were all staring at him.
Under the burning flames, these statues seemed to come alive.
For some reason, he felt a chill down his spine.
He almost wanted to put the Shing Wong statue back, kowtow, apologize, and leave.
However, Xu Heshi had a stubborn temper.
How could he be willing to retreat when things were at hand?
Even if it was for his own face, he did not plan to turn back.
He gritted his teeth.
He dragged the wooden statue behind him and walked towards the suburbs.
Although recently, he heard that there were ghosts everywhere.
However, he had the City God Wood Carving with him, so those ghosts probably wouldn't dare to get close.
The wind blew against the wild grass, making rustling sounds.
Xu Heshi stopped in his tracks and rested for a while. He wiped the sweat off his forehead.
He didn't know why.
He kept feeling that the wooden carving on his back…
It seemed to be much heavier than when he had just carried it out.
Was it just an illusion?
Or was it because he was too tired?
After resting for a while, he took a deep breath.
Xu Heshi picked up the wooden carving again and walked toward the wilderness.
Moonlight shone down, reflecting the strange shapes of the trees.
It was as if demons were baring their fangs and brandishing their claws at him.
Xu Heshi's footsteps became slower and slower, and more sweat appeared on his forehead.
The wooden carving on his back was even heavier than before!
He felt as if he was not carrying a wooden statue on his back.
It was a stone statue.
This was not an illusion.
He could at least tell that the weight had increased by a large margin.
"Strange!"
Xu Heshi muttered and planned to remove the wooden carving from his back.
Take a good look and see what the reason was.
However, something that terrified him happened.
The cloth strip was removed.
However, the wooden carving did not hang on the ground.
The Shing Wong statue was still firmly fixed behind him!
Xu Heshi turned around.
With the help of the moonlight, he could see Shing Wong's face clearly.
He no longer had the majesty and gentleness he had during the day.
At this moment, the statue of the City God was smiling at him.
There was an indescribable strangeness in his smile.
"What's going on?"
Xu Heshi turned his hands back and grabbed the Shing Wong Statue, intending to pull it down.
A heart-wrenching pain came from his back.
This god statue seemed to have grown on his back and fused with his flesh and blood!
"Ah!"
Xu Heshi shouted in horror.
He was finally afraid.
Enduring the pain in his back, he pulled the statue down with all his might.
However, no matter how hard he tried.
This statue was firmly fixed on his back, refusing to move at all.
Until now.
Xu Heshi finally remembered.
Countless people said that Liu Village's Shing Wong Temple was extremely effective.
Lord Shing Wong was really there!
"Lord Shing Wong, Lord Shing Wong!"
Xu Heshi cried in fear,"I was wrong. I shouldn't have stolen your statue!"”
"I beg you, let me off this time, let me off, please!”
"After I go back, I'll definitely come to offer incense and offerings to you every day!”
However…
There was no response from the statue behind him.
However, its weight was still slowly increasing.
Xu Heshi had no choice.
He gulped.
He took a step forward and ran desperately in the direction of the City God Temple.
There was only one thought in his mind.
He quickly returned to the temple and knelt down to pray for forgiveness.
However…
The statue behind him was getting heavier and heavier, which seriously affected his speed.
It took ten minutes to arrive.
The journey back took more than half an hour, and there was still more than half left!
Under the moonlight.
A man was carrying a two-meter-tall statue on his back as he trudged through the wilderness.
The sweat on his forehead fell like rain.
Every step he took would sink deep into the soft soil.
From this, one could see how heavy the statue on its back was.
Very quickly.
Xu Heshi felt dizzy and almost couldn't breathe.
After taking dozens of steps.
He finally could not hold on any longer.
He was completely sprawled on the ground.
Bang!
Accompanied by a dull sound.
The Shing Wong Statue behind him was also pressing down on him.
Kacha!
An immense pain came from his legs.
Xu Heshi finally couldn't help but wail miserably.
His legs were pressed down by the edge of the stone statue.
At this moment, it had already changed its shape and snapped.
"Help!"
" Is there anyone? Save me!"
Xu Heshi's sorrowful cries rang out in the wilderness.
Until the next morning.
Xu Heshi's figure was discovered by the patrolling personnel.
After comparing the information, they confirmed that the man in front of them was the one who had been stealing in Jin Ling City recently.
"Big brother!"
He saw a few patrol members.
Xu Heshi looked as if he had seen his own father. He quickly shouted,"Save me."
"Please save me!"
"Take away this Shing Wong statue on my back. I won't dare to offend Shing Wong anymore!”
He cried as he spoke.
Snot mixed with tears rolled down his face, making him look extremely miserable.
"City God Statue?"
A patrol member walked over and was a little puzzled."Where did this Shing Wong statue come from?"
"I was just about to ask."
"What's wrong with you? Why are you being pressed here by a pile of rocks?”
"Is someone messing with you?"
"Stone?" Xu Heshi's expression changed dramatically.
The patrol members did not explain further.
They walked over together and worked together to move the stones away.
Xu Heshi finally turned around and looked to the side.
As expected.
What pressed him down was a pile of rough rocks!
Xu Heshi's face suddenly turned pale.
His eyes were filled with endless fear,"Lord Shing Wong!"
The patrol members didn't care if he was afraid or not.
After calling the ambulance.
He then locked the shackles on his wrist.
Inside the City God Temple.
The crowd surged.
During this period of time, countless foreign tourists came to Jinling.
He wanted to pay his respects in the legendary City God Temple and see if he could get a pendant.
Even if he didn't, it was still good to have the blessing of a god.
Miraculously, the temple was filled with sandalwood.
It seemed to be much richer than before.
Behind the altar, the tall statue of the City God had a dignified expression, and there was a hint of gentleness between its brows.
They seemed to be watching the people worshipping below.
