Chapter 116
Chapter 116
The book of life and death in Yu Qing's memory has always been golden.
And it is different from the simple version of the book of life and death used on mobile phones. The names of all the people in the real book of life and death are bloody.
Every name of the deceased will lose its blood color, and it will not light up again until it goes through reincarnation and is reborn in the world with another name and identity.
It looks like a record with a special sense of ritual.
But only Mingzhu and Yu Qing knew that the book of life and death represented rules in addition to records.
While recording the lives of all people, it is also calculating their good and evil.
In other words, to put it bluntly, the book of life and death restricts reincarnation.
The lights in the hall were on and off, and the tongues of flames kept dancing in the air, making Yu Qing's expression even more gloomy.
His fingertips turned white while holding the book of life and death, and a few memories related to the past appeared in his mind unconsciously——
In fact, Yu Qing made it by looking at the book of life and death.
That was probably the year Yu Qing stayed in the underworld. At that time, the first batch of reincarnated people had all returned to the underworld, but the effect of reincarnation was not good.
"Did I do something wrong?" The young Underworld Lord sat in front of the stage, his face was confused for the first time, "Why did this happen?"
Only Yuan Shu stood beside him in the hall, that red dress was very eye-catching.But the color of the clothes is completely opposite to Yuan Shu's temperament.
When she heard this, the expression on her face did not change, she just whispered: "Human nature is inherently evil, my lord, you should have expected it earlier."
Back then, those human beings could restrain themselves a little when they didn't know about reincarnation. Now that they know that they can restart infinitely, they will naturally behave more unscrupulously than before.
Yuan Shu's words were light and light, as if she hadn't said anything, but at the same time she seemed to have said everything.
The hall was quiet for a long time, and time seemed to freeze suddenly.
The Lord of the Underworld turned his head and looked out the window. The light in the underworld is not like that of the human world. They are scattered into the room through the cracks of the window, looking warm and bright, but there is no warmth when it falls on the body.
He raised his hand and pinched the center of his brows. He was very tired, and his voice was hoarse when he spoke: "Forget it, you go out first."
"Yes..." Yuan Shu didn't say much, but stopped a moment before stepping out of the door, turned around and said, "My lord, it's right if you don't regret it."
After speaking, Yuan Shu left without looking back.
There was a muffled sound when the door of the palace was closed. The Underworld Lord stared at the light and shadow formed by the falling light somewhere on the ground, and murmured: "Regret?"
He should be sorry.
After all, he has paid too much for these humans.
Since falling into the sky, it is even more difficult to move forward. Forward is a dead end, and backward is an abyss.
The temple of the forehead became more and more sore, and the master of the underworld raised his hand to support his forehead, and when he was thinking about how to take the next step, he suddenly smelled a cool smell.
He opened his eyes, and saw Yu Qing who came in at some unknown time, tiptoeing to add something to his teacup.
This action is too much like a thief, but it is inexplicably cute when paired with Yu Qing's face.And the kid even patted himself on the chest after adding the ingredients, heaving a sigh of relief, more like a guilty conscience.
The corner of Mingzhu's mouth curled up, and he closed his eyes again. He was about to catch a turtle in a urn, but in the next second, he felt a chill between his brows.
"Lord Mingzhu, please be good." Yu Qing's vocal cords are not mature at this stage, and his timbre is between Zhengtaiyin and juvenile. "It would be great if I could grow up a bit."
When I was young, I felt that I would no longer be powerless when I grew up, so I always used this sentence to deceive myself.
But when I grow up, I realize that what I couldn't do before, I still can't do it after I grow up. It's just that the mentality has matured under the tempering of time.So I don't have such deep obsession with those regrets.
Even so, people look forward to growing up.
I still use this sentence to deceive myself.
Perhaps there is some comfort in my heart, so that I will not be unable to move an inch.
"Why do you want to grow up all of a sudden?" Mingzhu raised his hand and pressed the hand that was making trouble on his face, and looked down at Yu Qing who was clearly flustered, "Little Yu'er also has troubles?"
Yu Qing was nervous for a moment of being caught doing bad things, but soon he adjusted and said seriously: "Because you may not be able to do many things when you grow up, but you may not be able to do many things if you are not old enough."
A chance is better than no chance at all.
"Just now, I heard what you and Sister Yuanshu said." Yu Qing paused, and said, "I want to help Master Ming share the burden."
In fact, he didn't know much about those people.
The Lord of the Underworld gave them another chance to choose, but they did not choose to make up for their regrets, but went further and further down the wrong road.
"Then..." Lord Ming didn't expect that his conversation with Yuan Shu would be heard by a child, so he raised half of his eyebrows and asked, "Do you think I'm wrong, Xiao Yu'er?"
Yu Qing shook his head, "Master Ming is right, there is good and there is evil in this world, maybe not everyone is worth it, but someone is worth it."
"Wrong, those greedy people."
The temptation to live again is too great. When everyone knows that life has no end, the rules will have no effect.
"It would be great if there was a restraint so that they would not dare to act unscrupulously." Yu Qing murmured in a low voice, completely unaware of the sudden change in the face of Lord Ming after he said this sentence.
He lowered his eyes, murmured these words, and a smile leaked from his eyes little by little.
"Yes, there is always someone in this world who deserves what I do." Mingzhu raised his hand and rubbed Yu Qing's head, and said with a smile, "Little Yu'er is so smart."
Yu Qing was so praised that he didn't know why, "Huh?"
"It's okay..." Mingzhu raised his hand to hold the teacup and took a sip. Feeling the coolness spread, the smile in his eyes deepened, "What did you just add?"
"Mint..." Yu Qing said honestly, "Sister Yuan Shu planted it."
Yu Qing couldn't remember the following scenes very clearly. In his vague memory, he vaguely remembered that the Underworld Lord seemed to smile and said in his usual lazy tone: "You went to Huo Huo Yuanshu's flowers and plants again, aren't you afraid of being beaten?"
At that time, Yu Qing didn't answer this question, so that the answer was tossed in his heart for thousands of years, but he never had the chance to say it.
"I'm not afraid to do anything for the Lord of the Underworld, whether it's a blade or armor."
At the end of the memory, Yu Qing felt that he should have some emotions, but his heart was empty, and he didn't feel anything.
His unintentional words at that time gave inspiration to the master of the underworld, so the book of life and death was born.
With the shackles of the rules, those reincarnated humans really restrained a lot. At least for a long time, Yu Qing didn't see any new ghosts in the underworld.
"Master..." Yu Qing took a deep breath, "Where are you?"
Back then, he watched the birth of the book of life and death, so he was the only ghost in the world who knew how the book of life and death came about, except for the Lord of the Underworld——
The book of life and death was written with the painstaking efforts of the master of the underworld.
It stands to reason that there should be no problems with the book of life and death with the ability of the underworld master, but now it has turned gray.
So much so that Yu Qing was not only worried about whether there would be another problem with the order of reincarnation, but also worried that something would happen to the underworld master who made the book of life and death.
The hatchback struggled for a while but did not come to a conclusion, Yu Qing took a breath and chose to give up.
"I can only take one step at a time." Yu Qing sealed the book of life and death back, turned and left the hall.
He stayed here for about an hour, and the nightlife of the ghosts hadn't ended yet, but the noise didn't reach here.
The underworld seemed to be divided into two halves by the sound, Yu Qing looked back at the hall, and waved down the enchantment.
He walked a few steps along the way he came, and stopped somewhere.The road in front of me is divided into many paths. At first glance, there are many choices.But in fact none of these paths was chosen by him.
Yu Qing felt like a puppet on a string, being forced to move forward by the pushers behind the scenes, and had no chance to choose at all.
And when he realized it, he was already in deep trouble, whether he wanted to or not, he had no choice but to move on.
The four words of powerlessness are probably the saddest four words in the world.
"What should I do to protect the underworld?"
-
early morning……
There is no difference between day and night in the underworld, but Mu Yuanzhi woke up slowly when those ghosts had finished their nightlife and began to sleep during the day.
He didn't sleep well last night, as if he had many dreams.But when I woke up, my mind was blank and I couldn't remember anything.
Just as Mu Yuanzhi was about to get up, he was stunned when he opened his eyes and saw the surrounding environment.
He remembered that he seemed to be sleeping on the sofa before.
But now when he opened his eyes, it turned into a bedroom.
Perhaps in order to prove the authenticity of this matter, a certain ghost beside him who is not afraid of death came over again and muttered, "Mu Yuanzhi, I'm cold."
This movement of approaching was so skillful and unaffected that Mu Yuanzhi froze immediately.
He froze for a while, and was just about to push the impotent ghost away.But as soon as he stretched out his hand, Yu Qing opened his eyes.
"What are you doing?" When Yu Qing came back, it was already the end of the nightlife, and after careful calculation, he probably slept for about two hours.
Right now, his head is not clear, and he only instinctively reached out to Mu Yuanzhi, pulled him back, and said vaguely: "I'm sleepy, I'll sleep later."
Mu Yuanzhi really wanted to say why you are so sleepy and pulling me, but the words lingered in his throat for a while, but when he said it, he changed his appearance, "Why are you so sleepy? Why did you go last night?"
"It's a big deal." Yu Qing replied in a daze, with a complaining tone, "Mu Yuanzhi...I'm so useless."
"You can't keep anything, and you can't protect anything."
He couldn't keep the Lord of the Underworld before, but now he can't protect the Underworld.
The word fate plays with everyone, but it makes people unable to resist.
It's ridiculous.Yu Qing closed his eyes, but his mind became more and more awake, and even the drowsiness completely disappeared.
And Mu Yuanzhi's thin lips were slightly pursed beside him, and he couldn't find any words to comfort Yu Qing for a while.But before he could say anything, he was attracted by a loud noise outside the window.
The sound sounded not far from them, a bit like the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, but if you listen carefully, it sounds like an explosion.
Immediately afterwards, there was another hasty knock on the door.
Yu Qing almost sat up from the bed at once. He scratched his hair and couldn't help grinding his teeth.
"I'm still in the underworld, are these ghosts trying to rebel?" Yu Qing was already in a bad mood, but now that he was provoked to the door of his house, he was even more upset.
He opened the door angrily, and was about to see which blind ghost dared to provoke Lord Ghost King's dignity like this, but when he saw the ghost at the door, he froze.
"Yo, I haven't seen you for a long time. Brother Yu has changed a lot." The male ghost at the door had a flirtatious look on his face, especially his peach eyes, which were extremely sparkling.
Different from Mu Yuanzhi's eyes, there was a smile in this ghost's eyes, "Hey, is this the little boyfriend you're looking for?"
