Chen Qiuling had the light on in the room. She was pregnant and naturally very sleepy. She had just been thinking that she was afraid to sleep alone, but she didn't know when she fell asleep or when the lights in the room went out.
"Chen Qiuling! Chen Qiuling!"
Chen Qiuling felt extremely hot and humid, her mouth was dry and her body was covered in sweat. She wanted to wake up, but she felt like something was pressing down on her, and she couldn't wake up no matter what she did.
At the same time, it sounded like someone was calling her name.
"Chen Qiuling! Chen Qiuling!"
The sound grew closer and closer, and Chen Qiuling suddenly opened her eyes!
"Chen Qiuling, do you know your crime!"
Who? Who's speaking?
Who is calling her?
What crime?
Chen Qiuling turned her head and saw that it was pitch black all around. In the dim light, she could see a figure not far away.
Chen Qiuling sat up abruptly. The familiar mosquito net and the familiar quilt were still in her room, but what was that figure she had just seen?
The moon hung high in the sky, its silvery light cold and clear. Chen Qiuling couldn't see it clearly. Just as she was wondering what was going on, a loud shout suddenly came from in front of her. "Chen Qiuling!" A monster with a white face and a scarlet tongue appeared in front of her, almost touching her nose!
Like a ghost.
"Ah!" Chen Qiuling was startled by the sudden appearance of the ghost and screamed, "A ghost!" Then she suddenly stepped back and bumped into the headboard.
The ghost was standing on her bed. Chen Qiuling looked at it in fear. Seeing the ghost exuding a chilling aura, Chen Qiuling felt goosebumps all over her body.
"Chen Qiuling, you committed many evils in your life, and today your lifespan has come to an end. Now I will take you to the underworld for judgment. Come with me!" the ghost said in a low voice, and as it spoke, a mouthful of cold white air came out.
"No, I'm not dead yet!" Chen Qiuling desperately shrank back against the bed. She's dead? When did she die? No, it's impossible. She's so young, she's only just gotten pregnant. It can't be!
"The Book of Life and Death has already explained everything. You have no choice but to come with me!" The ghost stretched out its hand, and Chen Qiuling then noticed that the ghost was wearing white clothes, like a shroud.
"No! No, I won't leave!" Chen Qiuling cried out, refusing to go no matter what.
"You have no choice!" The ghost reached out and wrapped a rope around Chen Qiuling's neck, then dragged her away. Chen Qiuling didn't know how long she walked, but she felt that the surroundings were filled with smoke and ghostly energy, and there were ghosts everywhere that were missing heads or had red tongues sticking out and white faces.
With great difficulty, they finally entered a hall, which was equally dark and terrifying. However, this time they could see clearly that there was a long table in front of the hall, and a man was sitting behind the table.
As Chen Qiuling was watching, the man spoke, "Whom does Your Highness regard?"
Before Chen Qiuling could speak, the ghost that had brought her back spoke first, "Bai Chenshi from Zhedi Village, who just died yesterday and was just brought up today, please let Yama judge her."
Yama?
Chen Qiuling knelt to one side, listening in a daze. She quietly raised her head to look at the man behind the long table. Who else could he be but the King of Hell depicted in the storybook?
Chen Qiuling was trembling with fear. How could the King of Hell have come? Was she really dead?
Chen Qiuling was looking at Yama, but Yama didn't care at all. He picked up the book on the long table, opened it, and nodded, saying, "It really is Bai Chenshi, but she can't be reincarnated. She has committed too many sins: poisoning, abusing her husband and children, and murdering her parents-in-law. Each of these is a serious crime. She can't be reincarnated. Take her to hell."
At the mention of going to hell, Chen Qiuling burst into tears and hurriedly defended herself, "King Yama, I didn't! I didn't poison my parents-in-law!" She couldn't remember any of the things the King Yama mentioned.
"Look for yourself!" Yama slammed the notebook down near Chen Qiuling. "It's all written clearly in there, and you still want to argue!"
Chen Qiuling quickly crawled over, picked up the notebook, and opened it. It was filled with dense writing, detailing when she had bullied Bai Nuo and Bai Yu, and when she had bullied her mother-in-law, from recent times to more than ten years ago, even including the dates.
Chen Qiuling collapsed to the ground, feeling as if all her strength had been drained.
"Chen Qiuling has shown contempt for the underworld. Slap her twenty times." Yama's voice rang out above Chen Qiuling's head, booming like thunder. Before Chen Qiuling could react, she saw Yama holding a ruler and standing in front of her.
"don't want!"
She had barely uttered two words when Chen Qiuling was struck hard on the left cheek with a loud "smack," and she felt as if her face was about to split open.
"The first slap!" This slap is repayment for the pig feed you gave me when I was little!
No sooner had the first slap ended than Chen Qiuling received a second one on her right cheek.
"The second slap!" This slap is for when you pushed me into the river when I was little!
"The third slap!" This slap is for you pretending to be innocent and framing me in front of everyone!
"The fourth slap!" This slap is for letting Chen Zhi break into the bathroom and almost rape me!
"The fifth slap!" This slap is for you bullying A-Yu!
......
"The twentieth slap!" This slap was for the old lady!
After being slapped twenty times on both sides of her face, Chen Qiuling's mouth was full of blood, and she was so dizzy and seeing stars that she almost fainted.
But when she tried to faint, Bai Nuo wouldn't let her, and poured a bucket of water over Chen Qiuling's head.
"Don't hit me! Don't hit me anymore, I admit it, I admit it, I did all these things!" Chen Qiuling's psychological defenses had completely collapsed, and she collapsed to the ground, wailing loudly.
"Now!" Bai Nuo stared coldly at her and said in a chilling tone, "Remove the fetus from Chen Qiuling's womb and drag her to prison!"
"No!" Chen Qiuling cried even harder, curling herself into a ball. "Don't hurt my child, Dalin! Dalin! Save me!"
