584 Chasing

The palm of his hand gently covered my eyes, and at the same time, the sound of the bell rang out: "Daddy, don't worry, I will wake you up before going to school. But you must also hurry up~"

I thanked him subconsciously, not sure if the bell heard it.

Not long after, the heaviness on my eyelids disappeared, and I knew I had arrived. So I quickly opened my eyes, and sure enough, as I took a step forward, the familiar giant arch bridge appeared in front of me.

But this time the arch bridge is no longer the Soul-Eating Bridge, but the bluestone and white jade Naihe Bridge adjacent to it.

The whole body of the Naihe Bridge is moon-white, with many complicated patterns carved on the bridge. There are also safe steps on the bridge, not like the Soul-Eating Bridge, which is made up of wooden boards.

There are not as many people on the Naihe Bridge as there are ghosts on the Soul-Eating Bridge, and there are only a few patrolling officials with bull-headed and horse-faced faces.

But the order on this bridge is very scary. Every ghost is walking quietly on its own path.

Po Meng, who was wearing coarse linen clothes, stood on the other side of the bridge. A pot two or three times larger than herself was placed in front of Po Meng.

A small half-person-high table was placed on her left hand side. There were many soup bowls on the table. There were piles of them, and visually there were as many as a dozen in each pile.

Several bowls have been filled and are slowly steaming.

As soon as the ghosts walked in front of Po Meng, Po Meng pointed at the bowls containing soup. The ghosts immediately picked up the bowls and drank the soup in one gulp.

After the ghosts finished drinking, Po Meng quickly took the spoon and filled the empty bowl again.

So, over and over again, tirelessly.

I walked onto the bridge without any scruples. The horse face that noticed me at first wanted to stop me, but didn't want to be stopped by another horse face next to me.

I glanced at them lightly, and the winking horse face immediately smiled at me. Then he pulled the other horse face and walked aside quickly.

"Tsk tsk, I'm really a famous person." I saw Ma Mian's reaction and couldn't help but smack my mouth and said.

I walked calmly on the bridge. After taking a few steps, my pace began to speed up. Because it suddenly occurred to me that I had forgotten where Hei Wuchang's mansion was.

"No, Hei Wuchang must have been ordered to collect souls. I can just go find his leader!" After muttering to myself, I almost ran to the other side of the bridge.

When I passed Mrs. Meng by the bridge, she only glanced at me, and then looked away. It seemed that she didn't want to meddle in other people's business and cause trouble for herself.

However, no one is stopping me like this, which makes it convenient for me. After all, I am in a hurry now.

I ran straight to Yincao Underworld City, and I was out of breath. Standing under the gate of Yincao City, I looked up at the magnificent plaque.

I didn’t expect that I could visit the underworld three times in my life, which is something ordinary people would never dare to imagine.

"Stop! Who are you?"

Just when I wanted to enter the city, the soldiers guarding the gate actually stopped me. I heard the heavy sound of running approaching. I had no choice but to stop my hurried steps.

Two soldiers in armor stopped me between them, and they glanced at me with stern eyes.

"Who are you? What are you doing in Yincao City?!" one of the soldiers said loudly. I twitched the corner of my mouth, pointed at my face with a wry smile and said, "My name is Duan Muyang. I came to this city to see the judge in a hurry."

"Nonsense, you civilian, what do you want to do with the judge? Leave quickly, or we will be rude to you." The soldier waved the spear in his hand, creating a wind-breaking momentum in the air.

I know that he did this just to scare me. After all, I heard from King Yama that most of these gatekeepers were loyal subordinates of Du Ziren.

They shouldn't interfere too much in the affairs of Yincao City. They have their own reasons for guarding the gate here.

Maybe they never imagined in their lifetime that the person they intercepted today was actually the person they had been waiting for for a hundred years.

Suddenly, a large group of soldiers also wearing armor came from the other side of the city gate. I said silently in my heart: This is getting ready for a shift change.

"Hey, what are you doing?" At the same moment, a familiar voice came from the city gate.

I quickly moved out of the way of the two soldiers and followed the sound, only to see an old acquaintance in armor, Qiu Bai, walking towards me.

When I saw it was him, I quickly raised my arms and waved to him: "Hey, Qiu Bai!"

As soon as he heard my voice, Qiu Bai, who was still walking over there, immediately stopped and started running.

"Oh, she's such a beauty. Why are you back? Are you here to see me?" Qiu Bai grinned happily.

I patted him gently: "Yeah, I haven't seen you for a long time. I came to see you. Why can't I come down yet?"

"No, think about who you are. Who can stop you if you are so powerful?" Qiu Bai immediately started chatting with me.

After noticing the two confused-looking soldiers around him, Qiu Bai quickly smiled apologetically at them, and then introduced me to them, saying that I was a brother who used to guard the city together.

After such an explanation, the two soldiers nodded thoughtfully, turned and left.

"Hey, tell me, what are you doing back here?" Qiu Bai saw the two people leaving, put his arm around my neck, and said straight to the point with a stern look on his face.

"Hey, something happened to my friend, and Hei Wuchang got him, so I came down to take a look." I scratched my hair and said directly to Qiu Bai.

"Oh, you must be in a hurry, hurry in." As he said that, Qiu Bai pushed me towards the city gate. It was his move that made the brothers over there who had worked with me also

They all waved to me and said hello.

After I responded repeatedly, I turned around and trotted into the city, heading straight for the Judgment Hall.

By coincidence, when I was passing by Hei Wuchang's mansion, I glanced inside subconsciously, but I didn't want to make eye contact with Hei Wuchang who was about to go out.

Hei Wuchang hadn't put on his hat yet, and his whole face was exposed. I also saw it clearly.

The horrific seams on the face made people shudder, but the next second, I quickly lowered my head to avoid Hei Wuchang's direct gaze.

Maybe it was because I saw him, but Hei Wuchang also put on his cloak and hat unhurriedly, without pulling down the brim of the hat, he just put it on.

"I didn't expect you to come after me. Are those two brats important to you? As far as I know, you are not familiar with them, right?" Hei Wuchang tilted his head and looked at me straightly.
