Chapter 98: Page 98

Shiki Yingji shook her head and confirmed her thoughts.

She is Yama.

He is Yama who has extremely high moral standards and absolute self-restraint.

She won't do anything that goes against the [rules].

But at the same time, she knew clearly that if she left Nanxing alone, something bad would happen sooner or later.

So, after some detailed thinking.

"Please come with me for a three-eight-seven trip."

"This is not something I can resolve... I need to report this to Lord Yama in person."

"Don't worry, we won't hurt you - and we can't hurt you."

She said it very bluntly, with a very serious expression.

——But when this serious face appeared on a girl with a loli-like figure, Nanxing did not feel any sense of oppression at all.

On the contrary, I think this little girl is quite cute.

There is a feeling that "children from poor families have to grow up early".

……

hell.

Although in other mythological systems, this may be a conceptual existence, or a secondary space similar to the divine realm.

But in this world, this is a real hell.

It is located in the Land of the Dead (the border between Izumo and Hoki), and one needs to pass through a long river of the underworld filled with corpses and wronged souls to reach the real hell.

——This is also the reason why Shiki Yingji found Nanxing so late.

In addition to investigating the evidence in detail, the time spent on the road should not be underestimated.

But Nanxing obviously didn't have so much time to waste with her.

"Let's go and come back quickly."

Rashomon appeared, and the ghost gate leading to hell slowly opened.

Endless resentment emanated from behind the door, and the ferocious evil spirits flew towards this only "oasis" like travelers who had been thirsty in the desert for a week.

But, in the next moment.

"Oh my god, there's Yama!"

"It's still that Shiki Eiji!"

"It's over! We've been tricked by Yama!"

This is a very funny scene.

On one side are the evil ghosts who have been imprisoned in hell for who knows how many years and whose resentment has reached the sky.

On one side is the little Loli who looks weak and has no killing power at all.

But these evil spirits stopped in front of the little Loli, looking at a loss.

Shiki Eiji was also a little at a loss.

She looked Nanxing up and down with a confused look, constantly guessing the relationship between Nanxing and the Goddess of Huangquan.

This can resurrect the dead on a large scale and directly open the gates of hell... You say they have nothing to do with each other? Anyway, she doesn't believe it.

"But this is fine."

Shiki Yingji breathed a sigh of relief.

She doesn't care who Nanxing is.

As long as Nanxing is willing to go back to hell with her and meet the Ten Kings of Hell.

Then all of this will become clear.

……

hell.

Nanxing followed behind Shiki Yingji while looking around.

how to say.

Although it was dark here, it was not as dark as Nanxing had imagined.

In this underground world that is who knows how many thousands of meters deep, there is still light.

That is the light emanating from the souls of the dead. Although it is faint, it is enough to illuminate the world.

In addition to these lights, Nanxing also saw hope for life in this hell:

Flower of the other shore.

There is a saying about the legendary Manjusaka that “the leaves are not visible, the flowers are not visible, and the leaves are not visible on the flowers.”

Today, the red spider lilies are in full bloom, forming a spectacular sea of ​​red flowers on both sides of the Sanzu River.

But Shiki Yingji told Nanxing that this was not a good thing:

"It's been sixty years."

This is probably a superstitious statement.

But when it comes out of the mouths of these Yamas, it seems very "scientific".

“Sixty years is a cycle.”

"Every sixty years, there will be a major disaster in the world."

"When the time comes, hell will be filled with the dead, and the red spider lilies will bloom."

Shiki Eiji answered slowly.

Although there was still no emotion in her words, judging from her casual and natural performance, she still liked the feeling of giving people scientific knowledge... 0

But Nanxing felt something was wrong.

"Hell is filled with the dead?"

He raised his head and looked around, trying to find some traces of the dead.

——But, let’s not talk about the undead.

In this vast sea of ​​flowers, apart from him and Shiki Yingji, there is not even a ghost to be seen!

Could it be that this King Yama is lying to me?

Nanxing thought subconsciously.

However, look at Shiki Yingji's lips which were tightly pursed and she said nothing.

Think again about Ibuki Suika's attitude when she saw King Yama; and the confused and helpless looks those evil spirits showed when they saw her.

"what!"

Nanxing felt that he seemed to have discovered something very interesting:

"It seems that you are not very popular with others?"

……

It is true that Shiki Yingji is not very popular among others.

But it was different from what Nanxing had imagined.

The reason why King Yanluo is unpopular is definitely not because she did anything wrong.

In fact, quite the opposite.

The reason she is unpopular is that she is too "right".

A perfect and extremely rule-abiding Yama is naturally a good thing for those undead souls.

But to her colleagues and subordinates, this kind of perfection seems a little... inhumane.

No one likes a colleague who constantly points out their shortcomings.

No one likes a boss who chatters all day long.

And Shiki Eiji's habit of "persuading you while hitting you on the head with the stick of repentance" is a headache for those evil ghosts who have committed countless sins in their lifetime.

Therefore, over time, the people in hell developed the habit of keeping a distance from Shiki Eiji.

——No one wants to be discovered by her, and then be grabbed by the ears and scolded.

However, few people know this.

Being taught a lesson by Shiki Eiji is actually a good thing.

"Every time the repentance stick hits the deceased, his sins in life will be reduced by one point."

She has actually been helping others in her own way.

They just never knew it.

Chapter 118 Hell Girl

On the other side, there is a hall of right and wrong.

This is the headquarters of the Yamas, equivalent to the Supreme People's Procuratorate.

With the introduction of Shiki Yingji, Nanxing met the Yama's immediate superior, the so-called "Ten Kings of Hell".

They also held a cordial and friendly talk on the causes and consequences of the Kyoto Incident.

Overall, the meeting was beneficial.

(At least there was no fight. Being able to sit down and talk was good enough.)

During the talks, Nanxing and the Hades had a frank exchange, which enhanced the understanding between the two sides.

(There are huge disagreements.)

In addition, the two sides fully exchanged views on the issue of [illegally using power to resurrect the undead].

(Everyone says his own thing and no one listens to anyone else.)

But unfortunately, Nanxing expressed his reservations about the condition proposed by the King of Hell: "In the future, the dead must never be resurrected and the order of life and death must not be disturbed."

(We disagree with the other party's conditions, and our position remains unchanged)

During the communication, the Hades expressed great indignation to Nanxing at the severe consequences of the Kyoto Incident.

(I am very upset with you, but I really can't do anything about you now)

Finally, seeing everyone making so much noise that it seemed like they would never stop, Shiki Eiji, the meeting recorder, came up with a solution.

Or perhaps it was the King of Hell who spoke through her mouth to come up with this solution:

"Okay, let's all take a step back."

"You can just take up a job in hell."

"..."

Recruitment.

This is actually a tradition of hell.

Unlike the gods in heaven, there is no shortage of examples in hell of people resolving troubles through the means of appeasement.

The most recent person to be recruited by Hell was none other than the Saigyouji Youyouzi whom Nanxing knew.

"The person who should have been able to become a Buddha, became a ghost, wandering in reality, and can never be liberated."

This may not be a big deal to Youyouzi.

After all, becoming a ghost is her own obsession.

This was a serious dereliction of duty for Hell.

Fortunately, the Yamas made up for this mistake "in time" and appointed Yuyuko Saigyouji as the official in charge of managing the dead.

And now, regarding Nanxing's "trouble", the Yamas have the same idea:
