Yin-Yang Judge of Hell - C40

The man’s eyes were glazed, his tongue stuck out from his mouth, and his face was dejected. His hair was a mess, as if his hands were bulging. When he saw me, he retracted his tongue, chuckled at me, and skipped away.

I stood there, stunned. Stupid, this person must have been stupid. He just didn’t understand how a perfectly fine person could suddenly turn silly all of a sudden. What was that chirping sound?

While I was thinking, I looked around and saw that, alas, wasn’t this Wu Rilan’s house? Just now, I was so angry that I chased me all the way to her house, but I didn’t notice at all. Listening to Wu Ruilan’s house often have evil spirits or things, and can still see Li Caizhong and Li Huaguang. I think it’s better to leave, if I see them, I’ll be scared to death.

Just as I was about to turn around and leave, I heard a wailing sound coming from the courtyard. It was the cry of a woman, and it sounded like she was wiping her nose while crying. There’s no need to ask, it’s just Wu Ruilan. I looked through the gap in the door. He saw that the entrance of the courtyard was made of cement. However, as it had not been cleaned for a long time, there were a lot of leaves scattered on the ground. On the east side of the cement field was a row of side houses, and on the west side of the cement field, slightly ajar, was a piece of land. On the west side of the cement field was a fence, and on the east side was the cement ground, which formed a small vegetable garden. To the north of the garden was the hall. The door to the hall was directly opposite the courtyard, and the sound of this weeping came from within the hall.

I looked around the room. The door was closed and unlocked, which meant that Wu Rilan was in the room and was crying for some reason. But I think there’s something wrong with the hall. The first door is covered in something red, as if it was painted with a red paint not long ago, but it’s definitely not a red paint. Second, all the windows were tightly sealed with red paper. I really don’t understand why she did this. Most households need sunlight to open their windows, so why did she seal them with red paper, and why she didn’t have a wife at home? Even if she did have a wife, it wouldn’t be necessary to seal them so tightly.

Blood dripped from my head. I wiped it again and felt a slight itch on my forehead. At first, I thought it was due to the blood, but after I wiped it off, I still felt a little itchy. I think I’d better hurry. This place is kind of evil.

So I turned back a second time and was about to take a step forward when I heard someone in the yard laugh and say, “Go, go.” It didn’t sound like Wu Rilan’s voice. After that, Wu Rilan burst into tears. That I’m gone? Who was saying that? Was it a human or a ghost? If it was a human, then it could be a thief hiding in the Wu family. If it was a ghost, then he said this because he was afraid that I was here. “Since they are afraid of me, why should I be afraid?

This logic is actually quite interesting, just like a dog barking at you in our life. If you are afraid to turn around and run, then this dog will definitely chase you and bite you. However, if you stomp on it, this dog will very likely run away with its tail between its legs without saying a word.

They were afraid of me, and I was a judge, and Wu Rilan was my teacher after all, so I should go in and see whether it was about passion or reason. With that in mind, I turned and pushed open the door, stepping into the courtyard.

“He’s back, he’s back! Run, run!” There was a rush of voices again, low, but I could hear them clearly. Then I saw two vague figures running out of the side room and disappearing in the blink of an eye.

Even though I was still a little scared, I bravely walked into the courtyard and stood there for a while. Just in case, I started chanting the Diamond Sutra in my heart. Then I went to the front door and knocked. The door was sticky, and I smelled something fishy.

“Big sister Rilan, are you home?” I shouted.

Then the crying stopped, the footsteps came closer, and finally the door opened and Wu Rilan appeared before me. But as soon as the door opened, my forehead suddenly began to itch violently, and at the same time I was startled. Wu Rilan was very dejected. Her face was haggard, her hair was messy, and her eyes were red. There was no sign of life in her eyes. Compared to the last time he had met her, she seemed much older.

Wu Rilan also seemed to be frightened when she saw me. “Aiyo, Erlang, why are you bleeding all over your head? Come in quickly. I’ll find something to wipe it off for you.”

I followed her into the house, which, like the usual tiled rooms, was divided into three parts, but the easternmost room was covered with a curtain, which meant that it was a bedroom. The west room was connected to the middle room. Moreover, it was very spacious and didn’t have much furniture. In the middle room, there was a table for eating, two small stools, and a bowl and chopsticks on the table.

As soon as I entered the room, I smelled smoke. It was the smell of paper. She told me to sit on the bench and went into the East Room to look for something, something like cotton and cloth to stop the bleeding. I looked around. The light wasn’t very bright, but when the door opened, it was much brighter, and everything in the room could be seen at a glance. In the west room, near the west wall, there was a table covered with a cloth. On top of the table, there was a censer, and on one side of the censer were a few sticks of incense, while on the other side was a stack of yellow paper. On the wall above the table was a piece of white paper. Underneath it was an object, but it was hard to tell what it was. There was a brazier on the floor under the table, half full, and I guessed the remains of the ashes from the yellow paper. The entire west wing was a divine altar.

I looked at the thing hanging on the wall. It looked like a gourd, but it didn’t look exactly like it. Out of curiosity, I walked over slowly. When I got close enough to take a look, I couldn’t help but get goosebumps all over my body.

It was a fist-sized, five-bodied object with a red string hanging from the wall and three steel needles sticking out of its chest. After looking at these needles, I immediately understood that this should be a curse. In the countryside, there are many ways to curse a person, sometimes with cloth people, sometimes with puppets, sometimes with grass, write the name of a person on the chest or back, and then with boiling water and hot oil. Sometimes, he would even point at these grass puppet puppets and curse at them. It was common to see someone stealing grain from a family, or a lamb being stolen. The owner of the house didn’t know who did it, so he tied these grass puppets to a tree at a fork in the road and watered them with boiling water. I don’t know if this thing will work or not.

I looked back at Wu Ruilan, but before I could do so, I gently turned the mask over to see whose name was written on his back. As soon as I turned over, I heard footsteps behind me. I thought I was going to die, but Wu Ruilan must have seen it, so I quickly let go, but the Mask swayed a little, and its head fell off. The Mask Man’s head fell off, and the red rope collapsed, and its body fell onto the table.

Panicking, I quickly searched for my body and head. Then I forced my head back against my body. However, this piece of land had long since dried up and couldn’t be pressed down. In the end, it was pushed down too hard and actually shattered. One of the needles stuck into my hand, and I stamped my foot in pain. I pulled it out, shook the blood off my hand, and sucked it into my mouth. I never thought that my flick would leave a red arc in the air as my blood splattered on the white paper. I saw that there were many names written on the white paper, like “Nine Heavens Mysterious Woman” or “Great deity”. I knew that this was extremely important to Wu Rilan and could not be tainted. As a result, he hurriedly used his hand to wipe away the bloodstains. Unexpectedly, the wall behind the white paper was painted extremely white with coarse lime. It was extremely uneven. With this wipe, the white paper was actually destroyed.

I’m really afraid of whatever will happen, I’ll destroy this altar.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer. It seemed like I had to admit that I was wrong, I thought. I turned to say I was sorry, but as I did, the ashes in the brazier were blown up by the wind and flew straight to the door, where they disappeared. There was no one behind me. I broke out in a cold sweat. What was that gust of wind? There were clearly footsteps. No, he had to leave quickly. He couldn’t stay here any longer. Thinking about this, I hurriedly walked towards the door. When Wu Rilan pulled the curtain and met my gaze, she was immediately stunned when she saw the altar. She dropped the cotton and wine bottle in her hand and pointed at me, “Erlang, you …” “You …”

I lowered my head and kept saying, “I’m sorry … I’m sorry, Big Sister Rilan, I really didn’t mean to do it. ”

Even though Wu Rilan was angry, it had already happened. She couldn’t do anything about it. In the end, like a deflated ball, she sat on the bench and said to herself, “It seems that what’s coming is still coming. This is life.”

“I heard that there was an article in that sentence. It sounded as if she had promised me she would come and destroy the altar.” Why do you say that, Sister Rearan? ”

“When I asked them to come, they said someone would kick them out and told me not to let this person in, so I never let anyone in this house. But today, when I saw your blood, I forgot about it in a moment of panic. As a result, when you came, you drove away all the gods that I had invited. If they leave, all of my magic power will be gone, and I probably won’t be able to keep my life anymore.

“No, Big Sister Rilan, I don’t understand what you’re saying. I didn’t chase them away. I don’t have that kind of ability either.”

“Did you splash your blood on the Immortal Book? Did you stamp your feet in front of the altar? You are not an ordinary person, and you cannot do these actions in front of them. ” Wu Ruilan said.

It seemed that she also knew who I was. However, I had only met her once, and that was when Glass and I were preparing to return to the city. Could it be that she had already figured out who I was that time? However, there’s a problem here. If they really are invited deities, are they afraid that I would hide here and spill blood? Furthermore, my feet are stamping because of the pain in my hands, so I didn’t intentionally go against them. If they were really invited by a deity, then why was Wu Rilan getting more and more haggard? That year, his mother wouldn’t be like this.

“Big sister Rui Lan, you really know how to …” I wanted to ask if she was really going to die, but I didn’t dare. But she obviously saw through my thoughts. Before I could finish asking, she nodded. “Yeah, I can’t beat him myself. He’s too strong.”

“Who?”

“Black Yellow School.” Huang Xuanlong is too powerful; if I don’t have any more Fa Li, I won’t be able to defeat him. ”

“That small masked man of yours is Huang Xuanlong?” I asked.

“Yeah.” Wu Rilan stood up and went out to look at the sun. She then turned around and said to me, “It’s almost noon. You should go back. Hurry up and bandage your head. Otherwise the weather will get hot.”

“Oh!”

So I went into the yard, and in the middle of the yard, I looked back at Wu Rilan, who was wiping her eyes with her head. A very lonely and pitiful figure, she was crying. What is she crying about? Is she crying about her husband, or her dead son, or crying for herself? Looking at this scene, I couldn’t help but feel sad.

On the way back, I saw the man who’d hit me again, sitting by the river, his shoes missing, his feet in the water, his eyes glazed, humming a little tune, smiling at the water from time to time.

It seemed that he was completely stupefied, but only he himself knew what he saw that made him stupid. But it was definitely not a good thing. What was the sound of “Chirp Chirp Chirp Chirp”? Who said “Go, go” and “Come back, run, run”? And who were the two figures running out of the side room, but whoever he was, one thing was certain, was that they were not gods but evil, so they were afraid of me, and it was probably these two guys who scared the person who hit me silly. But if they were evil, could evil inhabit the house of the gods? If that was the case, then what Wu Ruilan invited was not a god, but a ghost, a demon, or even a demon.

If she thought about it now, she might not be able to keep it anymore, and it would give rise to many questions, like why did Wu Rilan curse Huang Xuanlong, why did she fight with him, and why did Wu Rilan invite these things? And why Wu Rilan turned the door red, and why the window was sealed. Thinking about how he called Wu Ruilan “traitor” when I went to find Yang Tuo in the morning, why Wu Ruilan had to go against the Yellow School, how Wu Ruilan’s legs were twisted into such a mess, and so on.

Aiya, my head is about to explode. I can’t think about it anymore.

On the way home, I met Mom and Dad, who hurried over. They probably heard from the people who were taking the test on the side of the road that my head was covered with blood. When she saw me, her mother was on the verge of tears. “My son, who beat you up like that? sue my mother! I’ll fight with my life on the line against him!”

I secretly rejoiced in my heart. Mom, Mom, you were so fierce towards me in the morning, but now you still feel so heartbroken. So I hurriedly said, “I’m fine, it’s just a small wound.”

“Come with me, go home and bandage it.” Mom looked anxious. She held my hand and hurried on.

At this moment, I felt exceptionally happy. Tears almost fell from my eyes.

“Mom, I’m sorry. I made you angry this morning.”
