"Hey, King Yama, don't read the papers, I'll ask you something." My master sat on the sofa with a pale face, and I sat next to him.

"What's going on with that half-step? Why is there not a single ghost? My master asked King Yama.

King Yama was still looking down at the documents, but when he heard my master's words, his head suddenly rose, and he looked at the master with straight eyes and asked, "What?" Do you know what's going on with half a step? ”

"Huh." My master looked at King Yama suspiciously: "What? Look at you, it seems like you don't know. ”

"Ten days ago, the half-step that had been sending ghosts to the reincarnation platform suddenly ran out of hours, and the transportation of ghosts was cut off over there, and then I sent a lot of ghosts to find out the situation, but they all disappeared, and finally I even sent black and white impermanence over, but the two of them also had no news." King Yama asked, "You just mentioned that you are more than half a step, do you know what is going on over there?" ”

"I guess I know a little bit." My master nodded, and then told King Yama about the situation when we met the Yin Tianzi more than half a step.

"What? It's made on a cloudy day! Black and white impermanence betrayed me? King Yama's face became ugly, frowned and sighed: "It seems that more than half a step will not come back for the time being, at this time, Yin Tianzi already has three natal magic weapons, unless the seven of us can defeat him together, but we can't kill him, but as soon as the seven of us leave, those demon beasts will attack in a big way, but the gains outweigh the losses." ”

"But it's a big deal." My master frowned and said, "If this is the case for more than half a step, then people in the world will not be able to go down to the underworld to be reincarnated when they die, and over time, there will be more and more ghosts in the yang world, and something big will happen." ”

"Hmm." King Yama nodded and said: "I also understand this truth, but now we are very passive, against the Yin Tianzi, the demon beasts will attack in a big way, and against those demon beasts, the Yin Tianzi will attack in the back." ”

"We can only endure it now, let them take the initiative to attack us, so that we can see the move." King Yama said helplessly.

I looked at the helpless appearance of the king of Yama, and felt that the administrator of the local government was actually quite troubled, and it was not as simple as I thought, but I suddenly remembered something, I stood up and said to the king of Yama: "Your Majesty, I have something to ask you. ”

"Chen Hui, you are the reincarnation of the King of Jizo, you don't have to be so polite, if you have anything to order, just give me a direct order." King Yama's attitude is also quite good.

"I have a friend Shou Yuan who is almost here, and I hope you can help add two strokes to his life and death book so that he can live a few more years." I arched my hand and said, "I beg you for this matter, and if you have any orders in the future, you can tell me." ”

"This." King Yama's face was even more ugly, and he said, "Chen Hui, it's not that I don't help you with this, but there is no life and death book in this world at all. ”

"If life and death can really be decided with a random stroke or two, then sooner or later there will be trouble in the world, you should be talking about the things in the novel Journey to the West." King Yama explained.

"No, the old superstition, that is, a man named Li Shigao is dying, isn't his life extended by ten years? You can't say it's fake, right? "I said unwillingly in my heart that if Brother Xiang can't prolong his life, it will be hard.

"Don't worry, I just said that there is no book of life and death, but I didn't say that there is no way to prolong life." King Yama said with a smile: "Actually, our underworld really has such a secret method for prolonging life, but this is absolutely highly secret, except for our Ten Halls of Yama, and the Yin Tianzi and the King of Jizo know, last time that thing was what I told Bai Wuchang to do." ”

"What's the solution?" I asked eagerly.

King Yama said, "Although it is true that the cells of the body wither and die, there is actually another reason, cause and effect. ”

"What a person has done in his previous life will determine some things in this life, for example, he was a good person in his previous life and has done a lot of good things, and he will have a harmonious family and a long life in this life, but he is a wicked person in his last life, and after being punished in my prefecture, he will be reincarnated, and most of them will enter the pig fetus, or other animal paths, even if he is lucky, he can still be reincarnated as a human fetus, and he will be destined to be a beggar in the next life, and his life span is extremely short."

"Generally speaking, a person's life is set and cannot be changed at all, but there is a place called Wangxiangtai in my prefecture, and this Wangxiangtai is a thing that can prolong life." King Yama said.

"Can Wangxiangtai prolong life?" My master looked at King Yama and asked, "I've been to play a few times, but it doesn't seem to have any effect other than seeing my relatives living in the yang world."

"No one knows the secret of Wangxiangtai." King Yama smiled and said, "He can counteract the cause and effect of the living in the yang world and prolong the life of people." ”

"What?" My master stood up and said, "Impossible! Fate may be able to change, but the reincarnation of cause and effect, heaven and earth are predetermined, and it is impossible to change. ”

"You won't believe what I say to you, so come with me." After saying that, King Yama walked in front, and my master and I glanced at each other, and my master said, "Look at it, follow it." ”

The two of us quickly followed, got off the government building, and the three of us took the car of King Yama to Wangxiangtai, which was on a cliff next to a small hillside.

"This place was actually placed on the side of the reincarnation platform a thousand years ago, so that the dead could look back at their hometown, but after we discussed it later, if the big secret of this Wangxiangtai was discovered one day, it would be bad, so we moved this Wangxiangtai here, and this Wangxiangtai has also become a tourist attraction here." King Yama explained, pointing to the lookout.

"Then what do you say about this Wangxiangtai that can prolong life?" My master looked at King Yama and asked.

"Actually, it's not a longevity extension, this Wangxiangtai was built a long time ago, Yin Tianzi convened many ancient Yin officials at that time to build together, and ten of us were among them at the time, but we thought it was just a ghost to see the things of their relatives in the yang world, but it was extremely difficult to build, a lot of cumbersome things, and in the end, ten of us defeated Yin Tianzi, and accidentally learned the secret of this Wangxiangtai from the mouth of the King of Jizo." King Yama said: "Everyone has a cause and effect, even the Yin Tianzi is no exception, he wanted to build this lookout platform at that time to counteract his cause and effect, but obviously failed. ”

"Huh? What is the specific way to counteract cause and effect? My master asked beside me.
