The second layer of hell - Scissors Hell!
Scissor Hell: In the mortal realm, if a woman's husband tragically dies prematurely, leaving her a widow, and you instigate her to remarry or even act as a matchmaker for her, you will be sent to Scissor Hell after death, where all ten of your fingers will be cut off! Even if her husband isn't dead yet, it's like Wang Po in "Water Margin." Pan Jinlian had no intention of seducing Ximen Qing, but Wang Po instigated her to curry favor with him and gave her poison, killing Wu Dalang. Let's not even talk about what would have happened to Pan Jinlian and Ximen Qing, but Wang Po alone would have given her a hard time in Scissor Hell.
Furthermore, according to Su Xiaoniu, most people who have their tongues pulled out in Tongue-Pulling Hell will then be sent to this Scissors Hell to receive a second round of punishment. After death, all living beings enter different levels of hell based on their deeds. Not everyone enters the first level of hell first; it's determined by their past lives. Those who enter the first level of hell will undoubtedly enter a second level to continue their punishment.
Of course, if you didn't do anything bad in life and always behaved in accordance with your duties, you won't go to hell after death. Even if you wanted to, you couldn't enter, because hell isn't a place where just anyone can enter! Instead, you'll go directly to the underworld, through the gates of hell, and continue on through the six realms of reincarnation.
After jumping down from the abyss of Tongue-Pulling Hell, I landed directly in the center of Scissor Hell. It was still the same dilapidated, shabby rock wall with jagged rocks. The only difference was that the hellish demons all had blue skin and wore blue shorts. The most conspicuous one was the one in white shorts. He held a pair of oversized steel scissors in his hand, so large they could literally cut off a cow's head in one stroke...
The blade was covered in blood, as if it had just cut flesh!
The most terrifying thing was that the nearby jailers also had scissors in their hands, but they were much smaller than the prison ghosts', but still very scary! They grabbed the naked men and women with the scissors and used them to cut off all ten of their fingers with a single cut.
I looked at the scene in front of me. In the blink of an eye, there was a pile of blood and fingers all over the ground. Just thinking about it was so cruel and terrifying. Not to mention that I saw it with my own eyes, the scene felt even more terrifying than the tortures in ancient times.
“Wuwuwu…Ahhhhhhh!”
However, even though those men and women had their ten fingers cut off by the scissors and wanted to beg for mercy in pain, they could not utter a word because their tongues had been pulled out alive in the tongue-pulling hell. Now they were like mutes and could only scream in pain a few times, and then roll around on the ground, making a mess.
I gasped and asked Su Xiaoniu, "How is it that we can attack the Hell Ghosts? These Hell Ghosts and Jailors are powerless to resist, but these men and women won't resist either? With so many of them, how could they not defeat these Hell Ghosts and Jailors if they united?"
Su Xiaoniu looked at me like I was an idiot. "You're stupid! We broke into the underworld privately and weren't bound by any of the underworld's constraints, so we could do whatever we wanted. But they were brought into the underworld by the soul-catcher after death, and then sent to hell. They were already bound by the underworld before that, so it's hard for them to even walk, let alone resist."
That made sense, and I instantly understood. No wonder, back in the tongue-pulling hell, I saw those men and women being tortured and punished by the jailers, powerless to resist, yet Su Xiaonu easily dispatched the tongue-pulling hell ghost with a single kick. The difference is truly enormous. So, the constraints of Hades seem even more terrifying! It's possible to turn a man as strong as an ox into a lamb to be slaughtered...
As we were "viewing" hell, the Scissor Hell Ghost came over carrying a pair of large scissors, looked Su Xiaoniu and me up and down, and then said, "Open your mouth."
I did as I was told and opened my mouth, but Su Xiaoniu punched me in the face and glared at me, "Don't listen to him!"
I said "Oh" and nodded.
The Scissor Prison Ghost was puzzled. He looked at us in surprise and said, "Why didn't you have your tongues pulled out? Did you come directly here?"
I spread my hands and smiled, "The tongue-pulling hell ghost on the upper floor saw that we were good people, so he let us pass. Big brother, can you let us pass too?"
The Scissor Hell Ghost wouldn't believe it and shook his head, saying, "That won't work. Even if the Tongue-Pulling Hell Ghost lets you go, since you're here, I have the final say. You're lucky you didn't have your tongues pulled out. In my case, just cut off ten of your fingers and I'll let you go."
Cut off all ten fingers? Damn it, I won't!
Just when the Scissors Hell Ghost was about to take down the big scissors on his shoulders, I suddenly rushed forward and punched him on the top of his head. The essence of Zhulong had already been integrated into my body. The power of this punch was so great that it knocked the Scissors Hell Ghost several meters into the ground before he could react. Even the big scissors disappeared.
With one punch, he knocked the Scissors Hell Ghost into the mud...
My sudden and violent action immediately attracted the surrounding jailers, who gathered around me. However, I ignored them and reached out to the Scissors Prison Ghost that had been driven into the ground. I grabbed his hair and exerted force, pulling him up with the ground, causing the entire ground to shatter!
I lifted the Scissors Hell Ghost into the air, slammed him down, and stomped on him. He completely collapsed from my torment, wailing and struggling on the ground without any resistance. The jailers tried to rush over to save their boss, but when I glanced at him fiercely, they stopped dead in their tracks, daring not to come forward. It was as if I were the lord of hell, terrifying them.
