"No money, no money."
While the Ten Kings of Hell emphasized that they didn't want any money, Yaya saw the magic weapon that King Qin Guang mentioned that could bring back souls.
"This is a soul-nourishing bead."
There was a whole box of black round beads emitting a dim light in front of Yaya.
"Soul-nourishing beads, just one can nourish the soul. The soul of the young master's disciple can be easily nurtured. I'll give them all to you." One of the Yamas enthusiastically handed the box to Yaya.
When he gave it to Yaya, this Yama Luo smiled so hard that his teeth were showing and he was extremely enthusiastic.
Yaya looked at the expressions of the others, but still didn't believe it: "Are you really going to send me here without charging me any money?"
Everyone nodded.
Yaya stretched out her little hand and rushed towards the box.
Some of the more stingy Yamas immediately closed their eyes in pain.
The Soul-Nourishing Bead is the condensation of the Yin Qi of the underworld, and it takes 100 years to condense one. It is the greatest treasure that the underworld uses to communicate with the outside world. If all of them are given to Yaya at once, she will have to wait another 100 years before she can get more.
But for a Taoist like Yaya who can stir up the water of the Forgetful River, if he comes a few more times, who knows when the underworld will be overturned. How can we not coax Yaya first?
Yaya originally thought that it was given to her and that it was the official words from the adults.
But when I saw Yan Luo looking distressed, I knew what they said was true. If it was a fake gift, there would be no need to show such a reluctant expression.
So, Yaya's little hand, which was originally about to touch the edge of the box, instead reached onto the box and took away the soul-nourishing bead on top.
"Yaya only needs one, you can take these back." She pushed the extra ones back and stood up. "This, this is a photography stone. You can input spiritual power to see what Yaya took. Yaya, let's go."
Before the gods in the underworld could try to keep Yaya, she had already disappeared from the spot.
In Sanqing Temple, Yaya first went to the front hall to report her experience in the underworld, and then her soul floated to her room.
When I reached the door, I saw a lot of people sleeping outside the room.
Some are big, some are small, and they sleep on the floor.
Because there is so little space at the door and they are all rolling together.
The one who slept the worst was Lu Xingfeng, whose head was facing Lu Xingyun's feet, and whose feet were stretched to the face of Zhan Beichen, who was curled up in a ball. Luo Cheng was also there, but he occupied a triangular corner, so no one could touch him.
Yaya blinked her eyes and floated through the sleeping people.
As soon as I entered the door, I heard the "beep beep" alarm.
Luo Cheng was the first to open his eyes, turned off the alarm and looked around.
But Yaya was in soul state now, and he couldn't see anything. He could only stand up suspiciously and check the soul detector he made.
After confirming that the detector was not broken, Luo Cheng asked in a low voice: "Master Yaya, are you back?"
Yaya said nothing. She returned to her body, opened the door, and nodded to Luo Cheng: "Yes, Yaya is back."
Luo Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.
He had been experimenting with using talismans to "detect thoughts in people's minds," and he felt he had stayed there too long, so when he went out for some fresh air, he ran into Lu Xingfeng who hadn't slept yet.
Lu Xingfeng said that Yaya ran to the underworld to find the lost half of Zhan Beichen's soul.
As long as you are a Dragon Countryman, who doesn’t know the legend of the underworld?
Zhan Beichen's soul could be lost when he was reincarnated, maybe there is some powerful existence in the underworld. Yaya went to find him, what if she had a conflict with them and couldn't come back?
Luo Cheng was worried about these things and couldn't continue with the experiment, so he simply ran out and stood guard outside Yaya's door, hoping that he would be able to see Yaya when she came back.
He wanted to be the first to know that Yaya had returned safely.
"I'm glad you're back. I checked. There are the Ten Kings of Hell and the Four Judges in the underworld. They are the official institutions of the underworld. I hope they didn't make things difficult for you."
Luo Cheng knew that Yaya was a little afraid of "official" people.
As soon as Luo Cheng finished asking, Yaya suddenly looked into the corridor and asked in confusion: "Ai Qian, why are you here?"
It is indeed Ai Qian.
But Ai Qian did not come empty-handed, he held fourteen badges in his hands.
"Master Yaya, Judge Cui asked me to come up and give you this."
Fourteen waist badges were brought to Yaya.
Yaya was stunned: "Why did Uncle Cui give so many cards to Yaya?"
"That's what Judge Cui said." Ai Qian wiped the sweat off his head and repeated Judge Cui's words, "The young abbot found out some things for the underworld that we hadn't noticed before. It turns out that the ghosts under our orders didn't follow through properly."
"So, in the next period of time, our Ten Kings of Hell and the Four Judges will take turns to reform the underworld. I hope that the next time the young master comes to visit, the underworld will have a brand new look. Take these badges, young master. If you have any questions in the future, just use the badges to communicate with us."
"As for the Great Emperor of Fengdu, he indeed disappeared suddenly while in seclusion, and we couldn't find where he was. If the little abbot saw some unusual mortals in the mortal world, they might be the reincarnation of the Great Emperor."
"That's it." After relaying the story, Ai Qian wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "Young Master, I still have to go back to listen to Judge Cui's instructions. I won't stay any longer. I'll leave first."
Seeing that Ai Qian seemed very busy, Yaya didn't call Ai Qian again.
She looked at the badges in her hand curiously. Each of them had the name of its owner written on it. Because it belonged to the underworld spirit, the badges exuded a gloomy aura.
Luo Cheng couldn't see Ai Qian, but he could guess that Yaya was talking to some ghost or monster, so he kept quiet.
It was not until he saw Yaya playing with the waist badge that suddenly appeared in her hand that he asked in a low voice: "These... are they the things given to the young master by the gods in the underworld?"
"Yeah, they asked the ghost messenger to give it to me."
After Yaya saw the appearance of the badges clearly, she lost interest and put all the badges away.
She had already shown Cui Yu and others the content of her complaint, and Cui Yu also said that the underworld needed to make corrections.
In this case, Little Naitanzi couldn't think of anything else that required direct communication with the gods in the underworld, so these signs were of no use.
"Luo Cheng, you just asked..."
Before Yaya finished her words, Luo Cheng had already shaken his head, with an embarrassed look on his baby face.
People were eagerly giving Yaya a badge, but he was still worried that Yaya would be in trouble, so he might as well ask Yaya what she had done in the underworld.
but……
Luo Cheng looked at the other people who woke up on the floor bunks, but did not ask anything.
Because Lu Xingfeng had already let out a roar, squatted in front of Yaya and asked the questions he wanted to ask.
"Yaya, you're finally back. Did you get into trouble in the underworld? What happened? Has Zhan Beichen's problem been resolved?"
Lu Xingfeng asked so many questions, and Yaya picked out some important things to tell him.
As she spoke, she put the black soul-nourishing beads into a small brocade bag and handed it to Zhan Beichen who was looking at her worriedly.
