Chapter 31 Fengdu Underworld
Xu Yunhan does look similar to him, but they look like two completely different people.
After turning into a ghost, Xu Yunhan was no better than when he was about to die. He was still thin and pale.
Contrary to Su Qingyu's expectation, in the gloomy underworld, Xu Yunhan looked less gloomy than before.
The job he does is what 527 said, which is to rank the ghosts who have just arrived in the underworld.
Xu Yunhan sat in front of a row of ghosts. When each ghost came over, he would raise his head and say something to them. His eyes were not covered by hair, he was quiet and beautiful, and he would occasionally smile.
It's really like a quiet and soft flower from the other side that blooms in the underworld.
Not long after they left, a ghost took over Xu Yunhan's shift. Xu Yunhan said a few words to the ghost and got off work.
Xu Yunhan took two steps forward, saw him, and stood there blankly for a while.
He scratched the back of his neck, and Su Qingyu knew it was a sign of embarrassment.
He has seen his life and figured out many of his little habits.
"Hello, are you my host?" He glanced at Su Qingyu from time to time and asked pretending to be calm.
Su Qingyu smiled and said, "Did you see it?"
"Yeah!" Xu Yunhan nodded, "We look very similar, but we are completely different."
The client cannot actually see the host performing tasks in his world. They can only see themselves and the people related to their obsessions changing.
Xu Yunhan is a director who is good at observing characters and capturing details. He saw this person without taking two steps because he was so eye-catching.
He has seen many ghosts in the underworld, but the man in front of him is not a ghost.
He also saw many working ghosts and hosts in the underworld. They all had a kind of cautious tension on their bodies. This person was different. Even though he was in hell, he still had a feeling of ease and relaxation, which made him particularly dazzling.
The same way he felt when he was in his world.
They have similar faces, but are completely different. He can turn around his closed and dying world.
Xu Yunhan admired and liked him a little, and shared the intimacy of the world with others that no one else had, "Thank you."
Thank you for letting me know that I can still live like this.
Thank you for making my world wonderful and bright.
Su Qingyu: "You're welcome, you are my client, I accept the money... I do things with merit."
Xu Yunhan: "..."
"Not only are you welcome, but I also feel that I have gained a bit too much merit. I am just relaxing for a few months, while you have to work for a long time." Su Qingyu said truthfully.
He felt that being a host was the same as being an actor during his lifetime, and the money he received was much more than what he paid.
Xu Yunhan hurriedly shook his head, "No, no."
"Originally, I did have to be stuck here working for a long time, but I collected advertising fees. Well, it's not advertising fees." Xu Yunhan said uncertainly: "It's implantation fees. Anyway, it's quite a lot."
Su Qingyu: "..."
Can such a thing exist? Who will be implanted for? Show it to ghosts?
How come he, an actor, didn't notice there was advertising placement?
Xu Yunhan didn't say much more about this. He said to Su Qingyu happily: "Anyway, my merits are enough. I will take over the work here in five days. Once I get the reincarnation number, I can go to reincarnation."
Su Qingyu originally wanted to send him to be reincarnated. He thought it was impossible, but he didn't expect that it would be possible.
This is a good thing.
Su Qingyu said: "If possible, I will see you off."
Xu Yunhan was very happy, "Thank you, you sent me to be reincarnated. I feel more at ease. I always feel that I will not take the wrong path again in my next life."
Su Qingyu discovered that Xu Yunhan was much more cheerful in the underworld than in the human world, and he really let go.
In fact, he had already changed when he wrote the script, as the names of the two protagonists Liu Xun and Yun He show.
It's just that at that time, he let go without hope, and it was "breaking the willow to give you a farewell".
But now, after dying once, he has truly let go.
Su Qingyu was in a good mood and told Xu Yunhan his address and asked him to come and play with him when he had time.
Unexpectedly, Xu Yunhan said embarrassedly: "Can I play with you today?"
Su Qingyu smiled, raised his head back, and said, "Let's go."
Su Qingyu was a little taller than Xu Yunhan, and Xu Yunhan was very thin. She would glance at Su Qingyu from time to time when she was walking next to him.
527 feels like the host went out to bring back a little fan boy.
Xu Yunhan said: "I especially want to thank you, about dad."
Su Qingyu said: "It goes without saying, I know everything."
It feels so good to have someone who really understands you, even better than yourself, and can capture things in your heart that you are not aware of.
Xu Yunhan had never felt this way before, and he was even happier.
He followed Su Qingyu back to the hotel. They talked about a lot, from Xu Yunhan's life to movies and TV series.
When he learned that Su Qingyu was an actor during his lifetime, Xu Yunhan sighed: "I wish I could meet you in my own world. I really want to cooperate with you."
"Indeed." Su Qingyu said, "If you met me, what would happen to Ren Heming."
Xu Yunhan lowered his head and laughed. He really thought that it would be great if there was someone like Su Qingyu in his life. He really wanted to.
Su Qingyu turned to say: "I also really want to meet a director like you."
Xu Yunhan was even happier, "Then I will film it well for you. You look good and have good acting skills, so the film will be very good."
As the two chatted, they actually felt a little sympathetic to each other.
Although there is no distinction between day and night in the underworld, many ghosts here maintain the habit of sleeping.
When the Yin Qi becomes thicker, the "night" of the underworld falls and it's time to sleep.
They chatted until very late. It was time for Xu Yunhan to leave, but he was a little reluctant to leave.
He likes Su Qingyu, and when he is with Su Qingyu, he feels as if he is still alive in the earth.
This was probably the first time he made an impolite request to someone he had just met, "Can I sleep here?"
Another good thing about a hotel that costs 2,000 credits a night is that it has more than one bedroom.
Su Qingyu kept him here, "You can stay as many nights as you want. Anyway, it's all paid for by your merits."
Rather than taking advantage of the underworld, it would be better to take advantage of Xu Yunhan.
He learned from 527 that the environment in the underworld was not only unfriendly to the host, but also to newly born ghosts like Xu Yunhan.
Xu Yunhan would be much more comfortable in the host hotel. In this case, why not keep Xu Yunhan and gather as much money as possible from the underworld.
Xu Yunhan stayed in another bedroom.
In the evening, 527 went to Su Qingyu's bed and asked him in a low voice: "Host, do you really like Xu Yunhan?"
Su Qingyu: "Well, as long as he doesn't fall in love."
527 groaned for a while and kept leaning towards Su Qingyu, "What about me?"
It said eagerly: "I will study hard and become a useful system. Does the host like me?"
Su Qingyu laughed and pinched the back of its neck, "You are my system, how dare I not like it?"
527's eyes suddenly became bright, "Host, I like you too, I like you so much."
"Although you are a scumbag."
Su Qingyu: "..."
Still not very smart.
When Su Qingyu woke up, Xu Yunhan had already left. He left a note for Su Qingyu saying that he was going to work and would be back on time in the evening.
Su Qingyu visited the underworld under the leadership of 527.
The underworld of Fengdu is very large, from the underground of Fengduluo Mountain to the top of the mountain that humans cannot see.
The gate of Fengdu, which is directly connected to Huangquan Road, is underground. The roofless building in the headquarters of the Impermanence Hall extends from the ground to the top of the mountain. The Ghost King's Prison extends downward to an unknown depth. The underworld extends infinitely, traversing Yin and Yang, and is extremely vast.
When traveling to different places, they had to take buses, subways, or airships to see all kinds of scenery in the underworld.
527 said: "Host, maybe we can meet the commissioned ghost in the world behind us. The ghost who looks very similar to the host and is working is the most likely."
Su Qingyu looked out the car window, where ghosts of different shapes were lining up to grab incense, and curiously asked: "Are there some hosts who have seen commissioned ghosts before entering the mission world, and even become friends with them?"
This makes the task interesting.
The host must know what the entrusting ghost's obsession is. If he is a good friend, he probably does the task with a revenge mentality?
527 thought for a while, "It doesn't seem like it. The underworld is so big, and the entrusted ghosts are divided into different places to work, so it is difficult to encounter them. And there is no chance of encountering them."
"Except for the rest time after the first world, hosts rarely choose the underworld. In the underworld, they need to pay merit to stay in a hotel. They are all trying to find ways to earn merit and don't want to waste it."
"Also, they will feel very uncomfortable when they come out of the hotel, and the evil spirits from the Fengdu underworld will corrode their souls."
Having said this, 527 asked Su Qingyu: "Host, you have been out for a long time, do you feel uncomfortable?"
Su Qingyu: "I don't feel it yet."
527 said with shining eyes: "Host, your soul is so powerful!"
It heard that many hosts felt extremely uncomfortable as soon as they entered the underworld and had to stay in hotels from time to time. However, its host had been playing outside for almost a day and felt nothing at all.
Su Qingyu had no idea about this and didn't take it to heart.
After Xu Yunhan came back, he was envious when he heard that Su Qingyu didn't feel any discomfort after walking outside for a whole day, and then went out to play with him happily.
Xu Yunhan: "I haven't visited the underworld much yet."
527 asked: “Where do you want to go?”
Xu Yunhan thought for a while, and Su Qingyu gave him courage, "Shall we go to the Ghost King's Prison?"
As soon as he heard about Ghost King Prison, 527 immediately jumped into Su Qingyu's arms.
Of the four major institutions of the underworld, the impermanent ghosts in the Impermanence Palace are the most afraid, and the ghosts in the Ghost King Prison are the most resistant.
Xu Yunhan is about to be reincarnated. Where he wants to go, Su Qingyu has no reason to refuse.
The Ghost King Prison is not as large as the Bull Head and Horse Face Mansion. It is the size of a village and is mainly deep.
The Ghost King's Prison is completely underground and extends to the deepest part of the underworld. The punishments in hell become more terrifying the further down you go.
The entrance is a gloomy primitive village, with unknown dark green vines spreading crazily around the black stones, and the Yin Qi is rich and black.
After walking in, Su Qingyu clearly felt that the ghosts and hostility here were very strong, although he didn't know what the hostility was specifically.
Most of the ghosts here are wearing black and gray clothes, coming and going in the thick Yin Qi, with black and purple veins faintly exposed on their pale faces. Some are holding weapons such as knives and whips, with black marks all over them.
Su Qingyu recognized the black color as what he saw on Bo Yunyi yesterday.
527 said to him in his mind: [Host, let’s go, the evil here is very heavy, you can’t bear it. 】
Su Qingyu felt fine, but when he saw Xu Yunhan biting his lip, his face became even paler.
Su Qingyu asked: "Do you want to go back?"
Xu Yunhan: "Let's go to the entrance of hell and have a look."
On the way there, 527 introduced him to the Ghost King Prison in his mind. [The Ghost King Prison is a place dedicated to imprisoning and punishing ghosts. There are a total of eighteen floors. One ghost king on each floor is in charge of a kind of punishment. The farther down, the more severe the punishment. 】
Su Qingyu nodded, generally consistent with their legendary eighteen levels of hell.
Most areas of the underworld are open to each other, but some places are not. For example, they cannot enter the hell of the Ghost King's Prison.
The entrance to hell was in the center of the village. Xu Yunhan walked to the entrance with difficulty and stood there for a long time.
Su Qingyu glanced at him in surprise. He didn't say anything and didn't ask.
It wasn't until Xu Yunhan was shaking all over that he couldn't hold on any longer, then he weakly said to Su Qingyu: "Let's go."
Except for the day they went to the Ghost King's Prison, Xu Yunhan never went to any place that was unfriendly to them. He followed them around the underworld to see the scenery of the underworld until the fifth day, when it was time for him to reincarnate.
As promised, Su Qingyu went to see him off.
Reincarnation was also the responsibility of the Bull-headed Horseman, so Su Qingyu, who was in the Bull-headed Horseman's area and was considered a non-staff member of the area, was able to be sent to the path of reincarnation.
Drink Meng Po soup before entering the path of reincarnation.
There are countless reincarnation paths on the Wangchuan River, and on each reincarnation path there is a beautiful woman serving Meng Po soup. Naturally, they cannot all be Meng Po.
527 said: [Host, they are all Meng girls from Meng Po's house. Most of the Meng girls are very beautiful. Meng Po's house is the most popular place in Fengdu underworld. Many ghosts climb the walls and want to enter Meng Po's house. 】
Su Qingyu: [……]
Su Qingyu: [Can it succeed? 】
527:【? 】
527: [Host, what do you want to do? Those ghosts were all fed Meng Po soup by Meng Po. 】
Su Qingyu: [...I like men. 】
527: [Oh, that’s okay. 】
Xu Yunhan followed his reincarnation number and walked to a ghost-free reincarnation road. Meng Nu handed him a cup of Meng Po soup.
Xu Yunhan looked at Su Qingyu and smiled, "Thank you for coming to send me to reincarnation. I have no grudges in this life and no regrets. I will go to the next life."
He thought for a while, took Meng Po Soup and bowed to Su Qingyu, "Thank you."
Su Qingyu nodded to him, "I wish you good luck in the next life, no illness, no disaster, no scumbag."
Xu Yunhan: "Thank you."
He picked up the cup, and when it was about to touch his mouth, he glanced behind Su Qingyu.
Su Qingyu: "Do you have any friends in the underworld? Is he in the Ghost King's Prison?"
"You have guessed it." Xu Yunhan said, "I don't know if we can be considered friends. We have only met a few times."
"I went to the Ghost King's Prison with you that day because I wanted to see him and say goodbye to him. Most importantly, I wanted you to meet him."
Su Qingyu: "We?"
Xu Yunhan nodded: "I can't explain why, but I always feel that you two are similar and it would be nice to meet each other."
When he and Su Ningyuan met for the first time, he was crying hopelessly.
Sun Ningyuan saw his face and stopped when he saw him crying, and told him that he had such a face and shouldn't shed tears like this.
He asked Sun Ningyuan what he should do. He could tell that Suningyuan seemed to be thinking of someone at that time and hesitated to speak.
He couldn't think of what a person with a face similar to his should be like until he saw Su Qingyu.
He wanted them to meet.
Unfortunately, it seems that it can no longer be done.
Su Qingyu: "You can go and be reincarnated with peace of mind. We will meet each other if we are destined."
"That's right." After hearing what he said, the regret in Xu Yunhan's heart disappeared.
He picked up the cup of Meng Po soup and looked at it for a few seconds. After seeing his whole life, his sorrow and joy were gone, and he raised his head and drank it.
Su Qingyu kept staring at him and saw that when he just drank Meng Po soup, his eyelashes trembled violently. When he opened his eyes, there was nothing in his eyes.
He was like a child who didn't understand anything and was led to the gate of reincarnation by a ghost messenger.
As he was about to walk through the door, he glanced back inexplicably.
Su Qingyu knew that he had forgotten who he was at this time. He was a completely strange person or even a strange thing to him.
He still gave him a smile.
I wish you will be full of smiles when you meet in the next life, have a perfect home and a warm lover.
That ignorant soul without a name walked into the door of reincarnation and started a new life.
527 jumped out and said with some emotion: "Host, Xu Yunhan has been reincarnated."
Su Qingyu: "Yeah."
527 asked: "He will definitely be born into a good child, and he will be very good in his next life, right?"
Su Qingyu: "Yes, he is a kind person and has never done anything bad in his life."
At the end of his previous life, he could have completely destroyed Ren Heming. The part on his phone where Ren Heming broke up with him was enough, but he did nothing.
He has always been like this. Even though he was afraid of that world, he never hurt him. Instead, he kept all his warmth there.
Although he has not read Xu Yunhan's trial book, Su Qingyu also knows that he will have a world full of love.
527 looked at the door, feeling full of emotion for some reason, and wanted to say something. When he looked up, he saw that Su Qingyu had walked up to Meng Nu at some point. Somehow, the two of them were chatting so happily in just a few minutes.
527: "..."
527 took out a cow-head mask and put it on his head, squatting silently in a corner.
After Su Qingyu chatted with Meng Nu for a few words, he asked her: "I have always been curious about what it would be like to drink Meng Po soup."
Meng Nu said with a smile: "There are no side effects. It's just that when you drink it, it will offset the Meng Po soup you drank before. You will see your past life. When the new Meng Po soup overwhelms the previous one, you will forget your past life and this life." Reincarnate easily."
Su Qingyu was thoughtful.
He had only thought that drinking Meng Po soup would make him forget everything, but he didn't know that he could still remember his past life.
The novice gift package that Hei Wuchang gave him was obtained from Mrs. Meng's house. After he drank a little, were the pictures that appeared in his mind his previous life?
Su Qingyu took out the novice gift bag given to him by Hei Wuchang and handed it to Meng Nu: "This is something a friend gave me. It said it came from Meng Po's house. Can sister help me check if I have been cheated?"
Meng Nu looked at the bottle in surprise, stretched out her hand to touch it and was even more surprised, "This is a good thing that came from my mother-in-law's hands. That friend of yours...isn't very powerful!"
Su Qingyu smiled. Seeing that a ghost was coming to reincarnate, he got out of the way and said, "Sister, I'll be busy first. We'll talk later."
He stood by the Wangchuan River, staring at the bottle in his hand, and sorted out the strange places based on his knowledge of the underworld in the past two days.
When he first died, black and white appeared.
That Bai Wuchang is called Bo Yunyi, he is the leader of Bai Wuchang, the nemesis of evil ghosts, good at killing evil ghosts.
He still doesn't know who Hei Wuchang is, but judging from the relationship between him and Bai Wuchang, it seems that he is not an ordinary Wuchang.
The mission of the Impermanence Hall is to take newly-born ghosts to the Fengdu underworld, and to bundle evil ghosts that harm the world back to the underworld and imprison them in the Ghost King's Prison.
The Niutou Mamian family manages the Fengdu system and is responsible for sending ghosts to the reincarnation.
So, when Hei Wuchang heard that he didn't want to be bound to the system, why did he try to persuade him and even gave him a bottle of goodies that even surprised Meng Nu?
Hei Wuchang said at the time that he was doing it for meritorious service, but this statement was obviously full of loopholes.
Their Impermanence Palace is not responsible for the system. If he wants to make meritorious deeds, he should be taken back to the underworld.
According to the duties of the Impermanence Hall, bringing back a ghost and binding an additional host to the Fengdu system are obviously meritorious.
Besides, they can whip a host into pieces with one whip, and the host may not be worth mentioning to them.
How could a very powerful Hei Wuchang give such a good thing to persuade him to become a host?
This bottle of good stuff seemed more like Hei Wuchang had given it to him intentionally.
He didn't give him this bottle to harm him.
Su Qingyu stared at the bottle in his hand and smiled, it was getting more and more interesting.
"527." he shouted.
527 raised the bull's head.
Su Qingyu: "Didn't Hei Wuchang want me to go to the Wuchang Palace to play? Let's go now."
527: "..."
Host, why don't you chat with your sister Meng for a while.
Su Qingyu came to the Hall of Impermanence with 527 hiding in his body.
The area of the Impermanence Hall is not as large as that of the Bull-headed Horse-faced Mansion. Like the Ghost King's Prison, it is vertically deep, but the Impermanence Hall is upward, stretching from the underworld to the earth.
The Impermanence Hall does have a quaint and majestic main hall. Behind the main hall are black stone buildings so high that the tops cannot be seen.
Su Qingyu entered the hall and asked 527: [Hei Wuchang who came to pick me up when I died, do you know his name? 】
[Know, know. ] 527, who was tense all over, said: [His name is Yin Changzai, Smiling Tiger, very, very scary! 】
After saying that, it buried its head into its small sofa, leaving only a short tail exposed.
Su Qingyu: [……]
Su Qingyu ignored this coward, walked into the main hall of Wuchang Hall, looked around, walked to the pillars of the hall, and stood next to Wuchang, a woman in black who was observing him, and asked: "Hello, is Yin Chang here?"
Nv Wu Chang was wearing cool black clothes, had a bright smile, and spoke simply, "He went on a mission to the underworld."
When Su Qingyu thanked her and was about to leave, she turned around and asked, "Is Bo Yun interested?"
Nu Wuchang raised her eyebrows, "It's beyond the scope of authority, but he doesn't seem to have appeared in Wuchang Hall for two days."
Su Qingyu left the Wuchang Hall without finding anything.
527 breathed a sigh of relief and showed his little head.
Su Qingyu asked it: [Can we end the vacation early and start the next task? 】
【Yes, yes. 】527 Question: 【The host wants to advance? 】
Su Qingyu nodded.
He guessed that Hei Wuchang gave him this bottle to remind him of something.
He remembers everything in this life very clearly. There is no memory loss. What he wants to remember is naturally his previous life.
To be honest, he was quite curious.
However, this bottle of liquid is indeed a good thing. It can suppress late-stage cancer for a while. It is a waste to drink it directly. It is better to drink it when needed in the mission world, killing two birds with one stone.
Since both of them are gone and Xu Yunhan has been sent to reincarnation, he might as well go to the mission world to do the mission as soon as possible.
【Okay. ] 527 said: [That’s right, it’s just a hotel with 2,000 merits per night, wasted. 】
Su Qingyu: "..."
Having said that, 527 took Su Qingyu to the passage to the next world.
Different from the first time, from the underworld to the mission world, they also entered through one of the reincarnation paths according to the numbers given by the Fengdu system.
Just like reincarnation, after walking through the path of reincarnation, they came to a new world.
