Chapter 509



509 In charge

Shangguan man continued to line up slowly in the crowd. It was a long and winding line, following the long and narrow Yellow Springs Road to the distance. On both sides were beautiful seas of flowers. Shangguan man did not know how long he had walked. There were still discussions in front of him, and news kept coming in from the front.

“It’s said that we’ve been waiting for three days.”

it shouldn’t have been so crowded, but it’s said that there was a sign hanging at the door a few days ago that closed the Store for Business. It’s only now that it has returned and reincarnated.

….

Everyone’s expression was strange as they listened.

The most ancient existence in charge of life and death was actually so casual?

Pause the game just because he said so?

He really did have the carefree style of a strange expert! However, in the eyes of this existence, their life and death and reincarnation were just insignificant things?

“This being is too mysterious.”

“Perhaps this is the starting point of the entire world!”

The crowd was completely shocked.

Countless people were talking about it, and even the celestial was talking about it. Many creatures from the animal path and the mortal path were also trying to curry favor with this celestial.

Shangguan man was ugly and had a red birthmark on her face, which made the celestial unhappy. Although she apologized, the people around her seemed to instinctively stay away from her. She had long been used to this. This was human nature. In an unknown environment, it was the nature of living creatures to stick together. She did not care. Listening to the discussion of the people, her eyes completely brightened.

“Don’t tell me? It can’t be, right?”

Calculating the time, it still made sense …

She was completely excited.

In the beginning, he thought that a top-tier, mysterious, and Almighty being from the afterlife world had taken a fancy to him and recruited him as a talent, but he didn’t expect it to be so powerful to such an exaggerated extent!

It turned out that in the world after death, there was only one mysterious existence in charge of the order of the entire reincarnation?

At this moment, she looked at the vengeful souls lining up around her and started to discuss among themselves. She understood more and more what kind of terrifying power was contained in them! It would be a great power that would determine the fate of all the living beings in the world!

“Hu hu hu … Shangguan man, it’s time to change your fate. Calm down.” She nervously touched the ugly scar on her face, and her eyes flickered with anticipation. It was the first time in her life that she had such a huge ray of hope.

They continued forward.

The souls of the dead piled up like a mountain, squeezing into a long Dragon, waiting to be reincarnated. Shangguan man finally saw a different scenery.

It was a bridge with the words ‘bridge of helplessness’ written on it. Below it was a surging River called the river of forgetfulness. There was a stone by the river called the three-life stone.

“The bridge of helplessness, the river of forgetfulness … Good name! It’s full of poetry!” She murmured. The end of life was death, and this place was the border between death and rebirth. She had abandoned her life, as well as the obsession and stubbornness of her previous life.

It didn’t take long for them to arrive at the head of the bridge of helplessness. They saw a three-life stone, and the people in the queue in front of them were already exclaiming in surprise. They had seen their previous lives and seemed to have thought of something.

After all, there were many smart people. Someone couldn’t help but exclaim, ”

“In my first life, I didn’t have much talent! And after generations of reincarnation and experiencing all sorts of things, it would gradually form a talent? So, this is the reason why my obsession accumulated in my reincarnation cycle was born from my talent?”

Everyone was completely silent.

Even the heavenly being didn’t say a word and stood in front of the three-life stone. The truth of talent was so terrifying.

Someone in the queue said bitterly, ” I’ve lived for seven lives and I’ve achieved nothing. I’m too lazy, I have no desires, I don’t have strong pursuits and ambitions, and I’ve only barely formed my talent! No wonder my aptitude isn’t good and I live a miserable life. I struggle at the bottom and blame the heavens for being unfair, saying that I didn’t reincarnate well. It turns out that it’s karma for not working hard in my last life!”

A man in luxurious clothes, who looked like an official or a noble, sighed. What this King is seeing now, I will forget in my next life! Otherwise, I can use this matter to report to brother Wang. The world and the Dao of our mortal world will change!”

…

Countless people cried bitterly, and some sighed bitterly.

Knowing the truth of the world and then forgetting it, this was the greatest tragedy in life.

After all, they had seen their past and present lives in front of the bridge, and after crossing the bridge of helplessness, they had to drink the soup and forget everything they had seen on the three-life stone. Who could accept this?

“The bridge of helplessness! What a good name … The bridge of helplessness … The time to know the truth is only the moment when I stand on the bridge of helplessness. I recall my past life in front of the bridge, and I forget my three lives behind the bridge …” Shangguan man was also full of emotions as he looked at the people on the bridge of helplessness, crying, breaking down, and despair.

On this bridge, one could see all the changes in life in the world!

It was the intersection of life and death!

It was a legend!

“This bridge will be where you will work in the future.”

Suddenly, a leisurely voice was heard.

Everyone was slightly shocked.

“This voice?”

Shangguan man turned his head and looked over. It was the young man in the black robe that he had seen before. His whole body was shrouded in a mysterious light, and he was holding a Black Book in his hand, sitting quietly on the chair.

In the distance, there was a square machine. The souls who passed by picked up a cup, pressed a button to fill it with water, took a sip, and then walked forward in a daze, losing their memories.

this small automatic water dispenser is finally going to die of old age. Xu Zhi stood up slowly, pulled out a chair, and made room for him. Shangguan man, from today onwards, you will be Meng Po and take charge of this place for me.

BOOM!

As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding people boiled over and exploded!

This mysterious existence was going to appoint a new eternal being that was not in the five elements and three DAOs to control half of the power of reincarnation?

They turned their heads and looked at the bewildered girl with the ugly birthmark in disbelief.

“This is not fair!”

The Deva beside him was instantly enraged. He squeezed his way out and said, ” this ugly woman is from a humble background. How can she …

“In the netherworld, all living beings are equal.” Xu Zhi said faintly and handed Shangguan man a book. you’re very smart. Try to maintain order. There are very few people at the moment, so you’ll take over the positions of judge, King of Hell, mengpo, black and white impermanence, and so on for the time being. You’ll be in charge of the reincarnation process of the entire order and extradite this group of dead souls. If you’re efficient, come and find me.

“Yes!”

Shangguan man instantly knelt on the ground and stammered in response, at a loss.

She looked at the empty chair, the book of life and death in her hand, and the yawning mysterious existence that was gradually moving away.

It was that simple?

I …

I’ve become an eternal existence all of a sudden?

He didn’t have to suffer the pain of reincarnation anymore?

Her mind was blank and she was in a daze.

Then, she looked at the endless line of wandering souls in front of her. She gritted her teeth, picked up the book of life and death, and tried to sit on a chair. She looked at a low-level ape in front of her and said in a trembling voice, ” cough, cough, cough, 10456. You have cultivated for seven lifetimes and have accumulated a lot of good karma. In your next life, you will be reincarnated as the path of the heaven-born.

“I! A heavenly being?” The person who had just been crying was instantly overjoyed.

“Drink the soup!” She trembled. Was this the power to control the fate of others?

Her face was no longer calm. A future celestial baby had been determined by her casual words … He took a bowl of soup from the water dispenser and handed it over. The ape drank it in big gulps with joy. In an instant, he became dazed and walked forward.

10356, path of the human world. She spoke again.

The elegant middle-aged man from earlier stood in front and sighed. you’re a man again. It’s a pity that I won’t remember this time in my next life. Otherwise …

After a while, the Deva came and glared at him.

His eyes were filled with hatred and a trace of fear. He thought of how he had mocked and ridiculed this ugly woman just now. Although she had been submissive and apologized, now that she was secretly making trouble … He didn’t dare to imagine it anymore.

“01348, next life, animal path.” As soon as she finished speaking.

“No! This is impossible!”

The entire Deva realm became excited, and he shouted, ” “This is definitely revenge! Revenge! I’m a celestial being, how could I be reduced to the most lowly species and be at the mercy of others?”

He was so anxious that he moved, his face red.

BOOM!

The huge black and white reincarnation behind the sky made a slight turn and instantly threw the Deva into the river of forgetfulness. He kept gulping down the water and lost his consciousness. He slowly walked ashore and followed the long line in front of him to line up behind.

He forced himself to drink the soup …

The people lining up behind felt their scalps go numb. So this was the purpose of the river of forgetfulness.

“Since I’m temporarily replacing the judge, I will definitely notarize it!” Shangguan man’s eyes were bright as he looked around. everyone, if you don’t cooperate with Samsara … It will be enforced forcefully and increase the negative karma. He will suffer a few more lifetimes of pain, and the future of this Deva will be a little harder!”

She read the book of life and death carefully. It seemed that she had no selfish thoughts about that celestial. After all, once she had power, she would do whatever she wanted. This was not what a smart person should do. She was already extremely grateful and impressed to have such an opportunity. She did not dare to have any other thoughts.

However, everyone’s mouth twitched.

“Is he really just?”

He looked at the timid woman with the ugly birthmark, who had just bowed her head to the celestial and admitted her mistake.

If he was really doing things impartially, he wouldn’t have lured the Devas into taking revenge with such a few cold words. Furthermore, if he had told the Devas the consequences of taking action in advance, they would have been patient and wouldn’t have been so impulsive.

However, he was indeed fair.

Everyone’s expression turned serious. One could not judge a book by its cover. It was only natural that the celestial beings were a little too stupid. They lived a noble life and were born to be high and mighty. Naturally, they could not play with this ugly woman who was discriminated against and had been struggling in all sorts of religions since young.

He seemed to be quite talented, otherwise, he would not have been able to reach this position.
