hū hū! 呼呼！ Under the vast incomparable Gate of Death, the Yin Soul governing wind, appears the Wu Ming form. 浩瀚无匹的鬼门关之下,阴神御风而出,现出吴明的身影。 „Close call, almost then harmed the period of 7 days!” “好险,差点便误了七日之期！” Although has the subsequent hand, but if can leave from here, is actually convenient, but can also save Dragon Qi, why not? 虽然有着后手,但若能从这里离开,却是方便,还能节省龙气,何乐而不为呢？ „My worthy brother!” “贤弟！” In the city gate place, Merit Evaluator god Wei Shanchu in the row, sees Wu Ming impressively, immediately welcomed: „You...... let wait for the brother good pain......” 在城门处,功曹神卫善初赫然在列,一见吴明,立即迎了上来:“你啊……让为兄好一阵苦等……” „Meets the minor matter, delayed the double-hour, making the elder brother be worried, but also looked no wonder!” “遇到小事,耽搁了时辰,令兄长担心了,还望莫怪！” Wu Ming submissively is the ritual, said with a smile apologetically. 吴明拱手为礼,歉然笑道。 This type has the demeanor of static air/Qi near the important matter every time, is to make Wei Shanchu express admiration at heart: ‚My this my worthy brother, the light looks at the self-control, is not in the pond the thing!’ 这种每临大事有静气的风度,却是令卫善初心里啧啧称奇:‘我这贤弟,光看涵养,便绝非池中之物！’ Also said: „Legalist school that friend actually first returned, kills with one's own hand five Black Mountains ghosts and gods unexpectedly, how enough one thousand Virtuous Merit...... does my worthy brother prepare?” 又道:“法家那位朋友却是先回了,竟然手刃五名黑山鬼神,足足一千善功啊……贤弟准备得如何？” In the surface appears a trace to worry about the color. 面上就浮现出一丝担忧之色。 The stance is from the heart, at least this attitude, made Wu Ming somewhat affected: „Collects by luck!” 无论是姿态还是发自内心,至少这态度,就令吴明有些感动:“侥幸凑齐！” „Good!” “善！” Wei Shanchu claps hands: „That is the brother then goes to the Virtuous Merit division with you together! That Xu Ziquan also stays there, because City God Master said that the gate of the world of the living is not suitable opens continually, must you first-grade......” 卫善初抚掌:“那为兄便与你一起去善功司！那徐子权却也还留在那里,因为城隍老爷说阳间之门不宜连开,非得等你一等呢……” His time mood is actually good, two people of investment, may rotate Yang-world, this is the huge chance! 他此时心情却是不错,投资的两人,都可回转阳世,这就是天大的机缘！ If said that a person pledged also some are unsafe, two people pledged, the reliability and opportunity are double, so long as there is one person to grant, the Yang-world descendants can obtain the attendance. 若说一人承诺还有些不保险,两人承诺,可靠性与机会便是增加一倍,只要有一人允诺,阳世子孙便可获得照顾。 „Oh?” “哦？” Whatever Wu Ming Wei Shanchu leads the way in front attentively, this is the planning ahead for one's descendants, is the way things should be, cannot be regarded anything, actually the Heitai City God action, making him somewhat surprised. 吴明任凭卫善初在前面殷勤引路,这为子孙计,乃是人之常情,算不得什么,倒是黑台城隍的举动,令他有些惊讶。 „So favors me? What detected?” “如此看好我么？还是发觉了什么？” Has Dragon Qi to cover up, the beforehand matter of land / territory treasure passing through does covertly, at this time the date and time was still short, Black Mountain Monarch and Heitai City God are not Heavenly Dao, naturally cannot know immediately. 有着龙气遮掩,之前的土地宝经之事又是偷偷摸摸去做,这时时日尚短,黑山君与黑台城隍又不是天道,自然不会立即知晓。 But this grand attitude, made Wu Ming somewhat anxious. 但这种隆重的态度,还是令吴明有些不安。 „Is good because of must rotate Yang-world immediately, Yin-Yang is able to discriminate, was short of some scruples......” “好在马上就要回转阳世,阴阳有别,就少了一些顾忌……” Two people arrived at the city center, a palace stands erect proudly, the tide of people like the class/flow, above has ‚the Virtuous Merit palace’ the gold lacquer inscribed horizontal tablet. 两人一路到了城中央,一处宫殿傲然屹立,人潮如流,其上有着‘善功殿’的金漆匾额。 Many souls, and even the ghosts and gods, are waiting for summon on 1-1, counts Virtuous Merit. 不少生魂,乃至鬼神,就一一等候着召见,统计善功。 Wu Ming actually walked a chapter of back door, joined a production team to enter under the leadership of Wei Shanchu directly, harvested one pile of supercilious looks. 吴明却是走了一回后门,在卫善初的带领下直接插队而入,收获了一堆的白眼。 Enters the great hall, the inside high long and narrow table suspended dozens, above is the official documents books of piling up, Wei Shanchu brings Wu Ming, before arriving at a red wood long and narrow table, behind is a reputation lives two corner/horn little rascal. 进入大堂,里面高高的案桌摆了数十,其上全是堆积如山的公文书册,卫善初就带着吴明,来到一张红木案桌之前,后面乃是一名头生两角的小鬼。 „This is my good friend, but also looks to be accommodating!” “此乃我的好友,还望行个方便！” Wei Shanchu is saying with a smile , the stopper one bag of bulging things in the past, Wu Ming was sharp-eyed, recognizing is one bag of law money, sighed the yama secretly combative, the little rascal was hard to deal with. 卫善初笑着道,又塞了一袋鼓鼓囊囊的东西过去,吴明眼尖,认得乃是一袋法钱,不由暗叹阎王好斗,小鬼难缠。 „Un un! Since Sir health/guard comes this, natural special matters are dealt with specially!” “嗯嗯！卫大人既然来此,自然特事特办！” The little rascal nods again and again, looks to Wu Ming: „Also please turn in Virtuous Merit Divine Talisman!” 那小鬼连连点头,看向吴明:“还请将善功神符交上！” Wu Ming shoulder ray flashes, unties the strength of law banning, golden Divine Talisman falls gently. 吴明肩头光芒一闪,解开法禁之力,一张金色的神符就是飘落。 „Un, Virtuous Merit more than 500, actually less than 1000 counting Ah!” “嗯,善功五百余,却是不足一千之数啊！” Sees Wu Ming seal Divine Talisman, this little rascal has a trace to be discontented, when the identification was clear after above Merit Points record, immediately said. 见到吴明封印神符,这小鬼就有一丝不满,待得辨认清楚上面的功勋记录之后,当即叫了起来。 „Slow! My merit has not recorded!” “慢着！我还有一功未记！” Wu Ming actually puts out a hand: „Explores Valley of No Return, five hundred Virtuous Merit, this is the certificate!” 吴明却是一伸手:“探索无回谷,五百善功,此乃凭证！” Water line of rune gush out, appears the light screen, above Temple of Heaven, palace and other scene flashes. 一枚水行符文涌出,现出光幕,上面天坛、宫殿等景象一闪而过。 Naturally, but gives a cursory look and gains shallow understanding, any possibly divulges the part of secret, trimmed off. 当然,只是走马观花,任何可能泄漏自身秘密的部分,都被剪掉了。 „Not returns to...... Valley of No Return!” “无回……无回谷！” Wei Shanchu opening mouth: „My worthy brother said that has the matter to delay, is here?” 卫善初张大嘴巴:“贤弟说的有事耽搁,难道便是这里？” This Valley of No Return is Underworld certainly, always the ghosts and gods have into not to have, at this time Wu Ming successfully explored unexpectedly, causes the stir seriously. 这无回谷乃是冥土绝地,历来鬼神有入无出,这时吴明居然成功探索,当真就引起轰动。 The deep land / territory position and strength link up, this explores Valley of No Return, strength that represents, seriously fearsome formidable. 冥土地位与力量挂钩,这探索无回谷,所代表的力量,当真可怖可畏。 Almost is in an instant, Wu Ming felt that ten several awe-stricken vision have shot a look at with no trace, when oneself raise the head, in palace little rascal, exchanges the color of flattering. 几乎是刹那间,吴明就感觉十数道充满敬畏的目光不着痕迹地瞥过,等到自己抬头的时候,殿中小鬼,又都换上谄媚之色。 „What's wrong, hasn't taken down quickly?” “怎么,还不快录下？” The eye narrows the eyes slightly, the front two horns little rascal actually has a scare: „Sir waits a bit, the subordinate handles immediately! Immediately handles!” 眼睛微微一眯,前面的双角小鬼却是吓了一跳:“大人稍等,属下立即办理！立即办理！” ...... …… „...... My worthy brother can search Valley of No Return unexpectedly, seriously courage unparalleled, divine ability is astonishing!” “啧啧……贤弟竟能一探无回谷,当真胆气无双,神通惊人！” Until had/left the main hall, Wei Shanchu has not responded, on the face has the exciting meaning. 直到出了大殿,卫善初还没有反应过来,脸上就带着兴奋之意。 „...... I and others sees right in front of one City God compared with this quickly, do not make Brother Xu become impatient well......” “比起这个……我等还是快去面见城隍,不要让徐兄等急了才好……” Wu Ming is indifferent, is holding appreciatively in the hand at the same time the suet jade pendant, this is a proof of thousand Virtuous Merit, was still a pity at heart secretly: ‚If really thousand Minor Merit(s), should good?’ 吴明却是无所谓,把玩着手上一面羊脂玉佩,此乃一千善功的证明,心里还在暗暗可惜:‘若是真的一千小功,该有多好？’ „Brother Xu several, rest in nearby small palace, my worthy brother may go now, waits for City God to receive and instruct......” “徐兄几个,都在旁边的小殿中休息,贤弟现在就可去,等待城隍接引……” Wei Shanchu envied is saying. 卫善初羡慕地说着。 „Several?” “几个？” The Wu Ming pupil actually moves. 吴明眸子却是一动。 „Good! Afterward also had some people to come one after another, must rotate Yang-world, master 1-1 permits it, but can sufficiently collect Virtuous Merit, actually very few......” “不错！后来又有陆续有人前来,都是要回转阳世,老爷一一允之,只是能凑够善功的,却少之又少……” Wei Shanchu is saying, made Wu Ming sigh at heart greatly. 卫善初说着,却令吴明心里大为叹息。 This Virtuous Merit list, Heitai City God decide to put it bluntly. 这善功榜,说白了还是黑台城隍自己定的。 On for example enters the duty in the nether world is the government official, needs five thousand Virtuous Merit, rotates Yang-world, this City God actually receives the price 1000! 就比如在阴司入职为吏,都需要五千善功,回转阳世,这城隍却收价一千！ Before, wanted Wu Ming by Land God position receiving in exchange, this said, a Yang-world 9th Grade Land God position, the nether world petty officials were even inferior? 之前,又要吴明以土地神位换取,这岂不是说,阳世一个正九品的土地神位,连阴司小吏都不如？ The only possibility, is Heitai City God intends to cheat. 唯一的可能,就是黑台城隍有意坑人。 However, artificial knife and chopping block, I for fish, and oneself have not complied, Wu Ming actually quite sees through. 不过,人为刀俎,我为鱼肉,并且自己也没答应,吴明却还是颇为看开。 Enters the side hall, several vision are to gaze , the advantage like the blade edge, has the flavor that the blood and iron is murdering, that Reincarnator makings, really very obvious. 一进入偏殿,几道目光就是注视过来,利如刀锋,带着铁血杀伐的味道,那种轮回者的气质,实在非常之明显。 „Brother Wu Ming really came!” “无名兄果然来了！” Xu Ziquan in the row, goes forward to salute impressively, is all smile: „I then know, you must not collect insufficient Virtuous Merit, here also several people of same belief, me come to present for you......” 徐子权赫然在列,上前行礼,满脸堆笑:“我便知晓,兄台必不会凑不足善功的,这里还有几位同道在,我来为你引见……” „Snort! Doesn't need, I and others to delay now, then for and others?” “哼！不必了,我等拖延到现在,便是为等此人么？” In side hall, but also two, a man and a woman, the makings are uncommon, male coldly snorted, in the foreheads, is quite then discontented. 偏殿之中,还有两人,一男一女,气质都是不凡,那男子便冷哼一声,眉宇之间,颇为不满。 Wu Ming shot a look at Xu Ziquan one with no trace. 吴明不着痕迹地瞥了徐子权一眼。 Just met, dropped the hostility, if said no one to create difficulties, how he was actually does not believe. 刚一见面,就落下敌意,若说没有人从中作梗,他却是怎么都不信。 Immediately is the smile salutes: „Daoist Wu Ming (nameless), has seen two, I guess City God Master this act, because I and other people of same belief were many, so as to avoid troubles, actually also non- specially for my one person!” 当即就是微笑行礼:“道人无名,见过两位,我猜城隍老爷此举,只是因为我等同道甚多,免得麻烦罢了,却也非专为等我一人！” This saying to be quite reasonable, female at the same time nods again and again, the brow of man also resembles to stretch. 这话颇有道理,一边的女子连连点头,男子的眉头也似舒展开来。 „this mistress Gong Yunshang, side is Li Suihan, Brother Li worries about Yang-world, therefore, the speech rather somewhat flushed, but also asked fellow daoist to be offended not!” “妾身宫云裳,旁边这位是李岁寒,李兄担忧阳世之故,说话未免有些冲了,还请道友莫要见怪！” A Gong Yunshang scarlet class/flow clothes skirt, brings the air/Qi of books, read lady of poetry book as if full, but in Wu Ming Spiritual Eye, this female cloudy aura magnificent to become cloud, not only had the Dao School clear light, and had the Ruism exquisite silk beautiful poem, brilliance several chi (0.33 m), were not in the surface that delicate female. 宫云裳一身赤红流裳裙,却又带着书卷之气,宛然饱读诗书的大家闺秀,但在吴明灵眼之中,此女云气蔚然成云,既有道家清光,又有儒家锦绣华章之相,光焰数尺,绝非表面上那个柔柔弱弱的女子。 Li Suihan is like Wu Ming, has the Dao School Dharmakaya, but were many several terse air/Qi, obviously stresses Martial Path. 李岁寒却是与吴明相同,有着道家法身,只是多了几丝精悍之气,显然更加偏重武道。 At this time in others God Domain, could not say that will peep, four people saluted upon meeting slightly, were not many said, sat in meditation directly the waiting. 这时处在别人神域之中,说不得就会被窥视,四人略微见礼,也不多说,直接打坐等待。 ...... …… Palace deep place. 宫殿深处。 The single layer heavy god curtain dangles, Heitai City God occupies the 9th Layer place high, vast invincible might heaven-shaking moves, such as the deep pool like the sea, internal qi profound and is inobservable. 一重重神幔垂下,黑台城隍高居九重座,浩瀚的神威惊天动地,如渊如海,气机深邃而不可测。 „Cannot think that...... this child really arrived there unexpectedly!” “想不到……此子竟然真的走到了那里！” Heitai City God is silent, long time later, actually waves. 黑台城隍沉默着,良久之后,却是一挥手。 The light screen appears together, impressively is the scenery of Valley of No Return vestige!
