I asked him: "Does it mean just you? Or one hundred and ten thousand?"
He shook his head: "It's always been there. I'm not the first, nor the last. Those people you just saw were once the souls of the dead in Shanyin City, and were released after being taught the skills by Mr. Yin.
"
I clenched my fists subconsciously: "I ask you again, what exactly is Yin Wuxin going to do? Didn't he swear to guard Shanyin City forever? If he can't get out himself, what's the point of letting you out?"
"Now we have to go back to the topic just now."
Xu Zhenren chuckled: "Mr. Gu hasn't answered me yet, what do you think of the underworld?"
I know this matter cannot be avoided today
She also answered him half-truthfully: "I am a human and not a ghost, so what else can I say? Just use your eyes to see."
But when it comes to the first impression of Hades, it seems that it is no different from the officialdom in the human world. Whether it is following people's influence, whether it is intrigues, and things like crushing people to death at the highest level of the officialdom, they all exist."
Xu Zhenren hummed: "What do you think of Shanyin City?"
To be honest, I don’t have a particularly deep impression of Shanyin City.
Perhaps the one that impressed me the most was Cuiyun Tower, and compared to myself, prices are relatively cheap, and one practice can last for 180 years, but these are obviously not the answers he wants.
So after thinking about it for a long time, I answered: "That place is actually quite fucked. Once ordinary ghosts enter Shanyin City, they will almost never be reincarnated forever. They won't even have the chance to be reincarnated as a human being. But this is also the price you pay for not drinking Wangchuan water."
."
"Yes, you will have to pay the price if you make the wrong choice."
Xu Zhenren nodded thoughtfully: "The original intention of establishing Shanyin City is nothing more than that there were too many ghosts and ghost generals who died six hundred years ago. The underworld needs some ghosts to make up for these establishments, but this establishment has been established for five hundred years.
It has been completed before.
Since the way of heaven was stripped away, the spiritual energy in the world has become increasingly thinner and thinner. It is no longer possible for mortals to ascend to sainthood, and it is rare to see ghosts who have successfully cultivated in the world.
Therefore, Shanyin City later became an embarrassing existence. There were too few capable people and fierce ghosts in the upper world, and the death rate of the Yin soldiers dropped sharply. Fortunately, thanks to the increasing population in the upper world, the underworld can only open thousands of vacancies every year.
Eight preparations.
Especially in the last century, during the period of population explosion, Hades would add thousands of people from Shanin City every year.
But what about now? The growth has stagnated, and there is even a faint trend of decline. You must know that the establishment of Hades is based on the total population of the Yang world. Once it declines, unless all the extra Yin soldiers die, Shanyin City will
The dead souls here will never see the light of day again!
This could last for thousands of years, or it could last for tens of thousands of years. Millions of lonely ghosts are wandering around Shanyin City like this. Even wanting to see the outside world is a luxury. Isn't this pitiful?
?
Those lackeys, traders, and prostitutes in the city will have to live this inferior life for thousands of years. Isn't it pitiful?"
The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and his body was even trembling: "But what are those people in the underworld doing? They eat nothing in their corpses, enjoying people's worship, reverence, and endless lifespan. Why?
Why can they practice and live a carefree life? Damn it, they can even travel to the underworld during the holidays and pay for team building. They are also ghosts, why can they have this kind of treatment but we don't?"
The more he spoke, the more outrageous he became. He was so angry that he sat on a chair with red eyes.
I haven't spoken to him, and I actually don't know what to say.
Again, I am not a ghost, and I have never lived in Shanyin City. I cannot empathize with what he said.
There was silence like this for a long time. It wasn't until the woman named An Xin brought a tray, put down two cups of tea in front of us, and walked out after a few plates of snacks that Zhenren Xu spoke again.
He asked me: "So Mr. Gu, do you think it is necessary for Shanyin City to continue to exist? Or we might as well talk about it more broadly, do you think it is necessary for Hades, or even the underworld, to continue to exist?"
His words made me feel numb.
Listening to this, do you feel that they want to take an unimagined path?
Do princes and generals like Xiang Ning have the guts?
I grinned for a long time and asked Master Xu tentatively: "Isn't it because Yin Wuxin wants to take you to the underworld and seize the bird position? Aren't you afraid that Emperor Dongyue will spread your ashes?"
Xu Zhenren shook his head: "Mr. Gu misunderstood. This kind of resistance is meaningless under absolute force. Not to mention Emperor Dongyue, even one of the five ghost emperors can kill all the dead souls in the city.
But just because we can't resist doesn't mean we can't do anything. If we don't want to die like this, we have to change our way of living."
I was completely confused by what he said.
But there is one thing I don’t understand, so I asked Zhenren Xu: “Then what good does this do to Yin Wuxin? Okay, I’ll give it to you all to change your way of life, seize Dongyue’s bird position, and run out of Shanyin City.
That’s fine, but Yin Wuxin is bound by an oath, so he still can’t get out?”
A meaningful smile appeared on Xu Zhenren's face: "Mr. Gu, does he know what Mr. Yin and Taoist Meng once swore?"
I raised my head and looked at him: "Isn't it just to protect Shanyin City and Guimen Pass forever?"
Xu Zhenren tapped his forehead: "Master Meng Wuchen and Mr. Yin Wuxinyin actually made the same oath, which is to protect Shanyin City and Guimen Pass forever.
Later, the two people discussed and decided that Mr. Yin would guard Shanyin City, while Taoist Meng would stay in the world to guard the gate of hell. On the surface, it seemed that Taoist Meng was taking advantage, but Mr. Yin had great power and could operate.
The space is also much larger.
But after all, bound by the oath, Mr. Yin did not dare to go too far, and theoretically, as long as Shanyin City and Guimen Pass were still there, these two people could never leave the scope of Shanyin City and Mount Tai.
But Mr. Gu might as well think about it, what if one day Shanyin City and Guimen Pass no longer exist? The things that need to be protected have disappeared, and this oath will be broken, right? "
I suddenly woke up and asked Xu Zhenren quickly: "You mean, Yin Wuxin wants to destroy Shanyin City and Guimen Pass? He wants to return to the earth?"
Xu Zhenren didn't hide it either. He stood up straight with a look of fanaticism on his face: "Yes, this is what Mr. Yin is doing. He has been planning for hundreds of years to achieve his goal.
Once the city of Shanyin is destroyed, then he, Taoist Meng, and all of us lonely ghosts will be able to regain their freedom. By then, who cares about the Dongyue Great Emperor and the Five Ghost Emperors, as long as they leave the country, who cares?
We can take care of it!"
After he said these words, my pupils dilated instantly.
Damn it, if Master Xu in front of me hadn't lied to me, and if Yin Wuxin really succeeded, wouldn't the world be in chaos?
Millions of ghosts! There are more ghosts than the underworld in the underworld! I can’t even imagine how much trouble they can cause in the human world!
My shocked brain short-circuited for a long time, and then I stared dumbfounded and asked Master Xu: "Does Master Meng know about this? Is he also with you?"
