Chapter 106 The King of Hell's Helplessness
Everyone knows that Ningbao did this entirely because she is sensible and knows that Mu Dasheng is unable to walk and is worried about her.
So every time she came back from outside, she would first show herself to her grandfather so that Mu Dasheng would know she was safe and he wouldn't worry.
When they didn't see Ning Bao immediately, Mu Dasheng and Li Guizhi both felt something was wrong, and they looked anxiously at Mu Chengye.
"I...I don't know, I didn't see my sister." Mu Chengye was also very puzzled. He had just searched the returning group but couldn't find Ning Bao.
He had originally planned to ask his uncle, but when he saw Shen Junshan being pulled aside by the village chief, he ran back first.
Meanwhile, Shen Junshan recounted everything that had happened on his trip to the village chief. The village chief was also very shocked when he heard that Ning Bao had gone to the underworld.
"What?"
The village chief looked around and quickly lowered his voice, speaking softly.
"Junshan, is it true that Ningbao went to the underworld? I didn't hear wrong, did I?"
Shen Junshan looked at the village chief very seriously.
"Village chief, you heard right, it's true."
Shen Junshan was never one to speak carelessly. Although the idea of a living person, or even a three-and-a-half-year-old toddler, going to the underworld seemed absurd, the village chief instantly believed him upon seeing the earnest look in Shen Junshan's eyes.
"Junshan, is Ningbao going directly there? Or is she committing suicide first and then going? I don't think I saw you bring Ningbao's body back?"
Shen Junshan was stunned for a moment.
“Uncle Village Chief, to be honest, I asked Ningbao the same question. Ningbao said she has a way to go to the underworld without committing suicide.”
She also said she could only stay in the underworld for three days at most, and would definitely return after three days.
Shen Junshan paused for a moment before continuing,
"Uncle Village Chief, Ningbao originally said that we should continue on our way as usual and not wait for her, and that she would come to find us when the time came."
But many of our fellow villagers are injured. Isn't it inappropriate for them to continue their journey while injured?
The village chief thought for a moment,
“Junshan, you’re right. I just saw that most of the people who went into battle were injured to some extent, and some of them were seriously injured. It’s definitely not feasible to travel directly from here.”
Let's rest here for three days, and then continue our journey.
Having finished discussing the important matters, Shen Junshan didn't linger. He bid farewell to the village chief and quickly walked towards his family.
As soon as he got back, he was surrounded by all his family members, young and old, who all looked at him with concern and asked him where Ningbao was.
He recounted the whole story in detail. When Mu Dasheng and the others learned that Ning Bao had gone to the underworld, they felt both worried and proud.
Li Guizhi sighed softly.
"Sigh! Our Ningbao is so capable that she can even go to the underworld. It's because she's so capable that she has to work harder than others."
While other families' three-year-olds are still nursing in their mothers' arms, ours is always busy.
Is this what they mean by "if you're capable, you should do more work"?
Standing next to Li Guizhi, Mu Chengye raised his voice,
"Grandma, it's true that those who are capable should do more!"
"Yes, yes, yes, the capable should do more!"
Sigh! Ningbao hasn't enjoyed any good days since he came to our home. He's either busy helping us find water and food or catching ghosts.
What do you think the King of Hell is good for? Shouldn't the job of catching ghosts be done by the underworld?
Why don't you do your own things and make our little Ningbao do them all the time?
I can't go to the underworld, but if I could, I'd definitely have a good talk with King Yama! What kind of idiot are you, standing around doing nothing all day!
"Achoo! Achoo!" King Yama suddenly sneezed three times in a row inside the Yama Palace.
Now, Judge Wen, the ghost messenger beside King Yama, gave him a strange look.
"King Yama, in the mortal world there is a saying that if you think of someone, you'll get a cold; if you curse someone, you'll get typhoid fever. But in the underworld, we don't have this concept of typhoid fever. I think it's probably someone who's cursing you."
The already dark-skinned King Yama's face appeared even darker now, his fierce eyebrows glaring angrily at Judge Wen.
"Who? Who dares to insult me? If I find out, I will throw them into a vat of boiling oil."
Facing the wrath of King Yama, Judge Wen showed no fear; he smiled and looked at King Yama.
"Your Highness, not to mention you, my eyelids have been twitching all day, and I have a feeling that something bad is about to happen."
"Achoo! Achoo!" As soon as Judge Wen finished speaking, King Yama sneezed three times in a row. He was very annoyed. Who was cursing him?
…………
At this moment, Ningbao and Lingling were already at the entrance to the underworld. Ningbao took out two invisibility talismans, one of which he stuck on himself and the other on Lingling.
Lingling looked at the invisibility talisman on her body and felt a little depressed.
"Master, do we still need to sneak around to go to the underworld?"
"It's just the Hall of Yama, our master can go wherever he wants. Even Yama, the King of Hell, wouldn't dare say anything. Besides, we're going there to demand justice; we should storm in openly and honestly."
"Smack!" Ning Bao smacked Lingling on the head.
"Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake, don't you know that?"
