What exactly are the eighteen layers of hell? It turns out that these crimes are among them, and everyone may not be able to escape them
In some ancient myths and legends, if a person has done evil things in the world, then he will go to hell after death, and what sins he commits will be punished, so what crimes correspond to the eighteen layers of hell?
The first layer: tongue-pulling hell
The kind of person who likes to sow discord, lie and deceive others, flamboyate and slander others when he is alive will go to the hell of tongue pulling out after death.
As the name suggests, tongue pulling is to pull out a person's tongue, and during the execution, the imp will use pliers to clamp the tongue of the guilty ghost and stretch it little by little until the tongue is pulled off. After having had enough of the pain of tongue pulling, the sinner will be taken to the hell of scissors and iron trees to continue to be punished.
In history, those selfish villains and eunuchs are probably quite suitable for this kind of punishment.
Second layer: Scissors hell
In the yang world, if you introduce a widow who has no husband to a partner, or instigate her to marry, then when you die, you will be taken to the hell of scissors, and all ten fingers will be cut off. If a woman's husband is not dead, you let her out of the wall, and the punishment will be severer.
Level 3: Iron Tree Hell
Anyone who divides his flesh and blood and instigates discord among his relatives will be thrown into the Iron Tree Hell after death, and his back will be hung on the iron tree full of spikes and tortured. After completing his sentence, he had to go to the mirror of evil and the hell of the steamer.
Level 4: Mirror Hell
This is actually a mirror of demons, shining on those sinners who have committed sins in the yang world, but are unwilling to tell the truth, or rely on power to get away with it. On earth, they may be able to escape punishment and live happily, but once they die and enter the Mirror Hell, their sins will be unobstructed, and then they will be punished in different hells according to their sins.
Fifth Floor: Steamer Hell
Some people usually like to gossip about people, spread rumors, frame others, and insult others, and after the death of such people, they will all go to the steamer hell and be steamed in a high-temperature steamer until the skin and flesh melt. After steaming, a cold wind blows, and the person returns to his original state, and then takes him to the hell where he will be tortured.
Sixth Floor: Bronze Pillar Hell
Those arsonists who aim to take revenge and destroy evidence will be thrown into the bronze pillar hell after death, and the sinners will be naked, holding a large red and hot copper pillar, and burning it against the skin and flesh.
Seventh Layer: Knife Mountain Hell
In the human world, it doesn't matter if you don't believe in gods, but you can't blaspheme the gods, and those who abuse animals and kill livestock will go to Daoshan Hell after death. In the Knife Mountain Hell, the imp will make you climb the Knife Mountain naked, and judge the time of punishment depending on the severity of the crime.
Eighth Layer: Iceberg Hell

Here, the imps will strip their clothes and throw them into a hot pan of oil and fry them repeatedly. Depending on the degree of sin, determine how many times to blow up.
