Yama's employees

Chapter 5 Naihe Bridge

Perhaps it is really because of the great need in the world, the medicine jars placed on the ground of the pharmacy department have been gurgling with the smell of medicine.Yeyue carefully inspected the herbal medicines that were sent, but she didn't see many creatures, while chatting with Po Meng.

"Sister, why are you the only one here? You're so busy." While talking, Yeyue didn't stop in her hands. Various plants were scattered into the bamboo basket in front, and sometimes some plants were found attached to the top. creatures that look like single-celled organisms.

Po Meng stirred the big medicine jar that was bubbling in the pot, and kept watching the color change inside. "Look, I'm very happy for your sweet mouth. But this place has always been the only place I can enter. Since the world entered the technology year, more people have reincarnated. My pharmacy has expanded from [-] square meters to With the current scale, I would have been able to do it quickly if I had moved faster before, but now I have to recruit someone.”

"Then did your leader find it for you?"

"I mentioned it to him a while ago, saying that I will be assigned an assistant next year, and now I will send someone here to help. If you like my place, I can help you talk about it."

At this moment, the decoction in the pot has been boiled, Yeyue saw for the first time how such a big pot of decoction was divided into bowls: she took off the bamboo tube around her waist, and used the silver spoon inside, As soon as it is put into the soup pot, all the soup and medicine inside will be gathered into this delicate spoon.Put the spoon back into the bamboo tube.Then he said to me: "Are you interested in taking a look together?"

Of course, Yeyue was willing to do so, so she trotted excitedly to follow her, went out through a corridor, opened the wooden door on the other side, and then she could see the River of Life and Death.The river flows gently and is divided into two parts. The side near the bank of the underworld is black, and the other side is white like the living world.Yeyue was scared when she saw this, but luckily she didn't send that soul to reincarnation, maybe she really hurt others and herself.

"If the soul is sent out from here, what about the Tao of Reincarnation?" Yeyue imitated the little ghost next to her and helped Meng Po put the porcelain bowl on the table.

"That thing is the destination of some evil souls in the human world, as well as the souls of the most good. It is divided into the animal realm, the human realm, and the demon realm. Ordinary souls cannot go there."

"What will happen if ordinary souls are thrown into it by mistake?"

"I don't know, and nothing like this has ever happened, so no one can say for sure." Granny Meng handed the spoon to the kid beside her and said as she walked.

The little ghost took the spoon and filled up the empty bowls on the table one by one. On the way back to the pharmacy, Yeyue casually glanced at the souls queuing up to drink soup. They were all wearing white gowns and their faces were pale.After drinking the soup, they stepped onto the huge stones placed on the river, and stepped carefully from one stone to another.Suddenly, a soul accidentally slipped on his foot and fell down. Before he could grab the stone, he was washed away by the current and disappeared at the end of the river.

"It fell!" Yeyue yelled.

"This bridge was originally an arch bridge, but due to human problems, the bridge was damaged a little bit, and finally turned into what it is today. The soul just now could have been reincarnated, but his fate is not good."

"Fate? It hasn't been reborn yet and has its fate yet?" Back at the pharmacy, Yeyue pestered Po Meng, insisting on her giving herself an answer.

"Hey~! Let me tell you this. Now that the technology in the world is advanced, you can decide whether you want a child or not. If a woman is pregnant, she can give birth if she wants it. Then the soul can easily cross the bridge. If the woman doesn't want it, the child will be born If it is destroyed, this soul will not be able to pass through the Naihe Bridge, it will be washed to the other side by the river and turned into livestock."

"Livestock?! Isn't this too much?!" Yeyue felt that this was too much, and she couldn't accept such behavior in her heart.

"Don't worry too much about it, boy, if you've been trying so hard to experience it, I advise you not to stay in this kind of place."

"Did I make you unhappy?" Yeyue didn't know what she did wrong.

"Why, I'm just worried about you! You have feelings that we don't have, and you are not suitable to work in a place like the underworld." Meng Po told him earnestly, wanting him to know why she was assigned to the recycling department. reason.It's a pity that he didn't understand, but felt that the old employees here were too indifferent.
