"Also, our management office has a rule that if you bring back the dead, you will lose ten years of your life."
I nodded, I was prepared for this, ten years is ten years, it's better than never going back. Who knew he would whisper to me with a sly smile: "Add another fifty pills, and you won't have to shorten your life by ten years." I was stunned, there was such a good thing, not to mention fifty pills, even a hundred pills would do.
Now I strongly doubt that my great-grandfather’s management ability is not as strong as mine.
The director took out a black card, signed it, and stamped it. That was it. With this pass, I could bring Shen Bing back to life.
I didn't expect this to go so smoothly. Later on, I thought about it and realized that it was nothing strange. What we thought was difficult to do was nothing to them. Besides, Yin-boosting pills are a hot commodity in the underworld. I can only make 300 pills a year, and the demand is far from meeting the supply. He took 100 pills from me at once, which made me happier than giving him tens of billions.
When I got out of the house, the drunkard told me that new ghosts, after reporting, would temporarily stay in the inn, and after their relatives burned and sent houses over, they could have their own homes after approval from the Planning Department. Oh, it seems that the system of the underworld is quite sound.
Just as I was about to go to the inn, I heard Shen Bing calling me in a low voice: "Country bumpkin, I'm here, come over here."
When I looked up, I saw her crouching across the street, hooking her finger at me. Her face looked the same as when she was pretending to be a ghost.
I thanked the drunkard and told him to go to my shop to get the medicine in a few days, then hurried over to the other side and held her hands. Although I was sure that she could return to the world of the living, I couldn't help but feel excited when we met in the underworld, so I asked her, "Are you afraid?"
She shook off my hand and said, "Country bumpkin, your way of taking advantage of others is very old-fashioned, do you know that?"
Even as a ghost, you are still so cute. I thought to myself, it was not when you took the initiative to rub my hands under the second gate. I shook my head at her and made a very handsome gesture: "Come with me."
"Where are we going? It's dark everywhere and boring." She pouted.
"Go home."
She tilted her head in disbelief and said, "You have a family so soon?"
Oh, I forgot to tell her that I was here to take her back. She probably thought that I was also killed by the bitch, and that we are all ghosts now. So I told her the whole story, and she was so moved that she grabbed my hand and was speechless for a while.
At this time, the drunkard poked his head out from behind us, stared at us with drunken eyes and said, "Brother, you are here to do this, but if you bring people back, you will lose ten years of your life."
This guy was eavesdropping on our conversation. I thought to myself, why are you joining in the fun? Can't you see that Shen Bing is so touched? Your disturbance ruins the atmosphere. I pushed his head back and told him to get out, or I won't give him the pills.
"What, you want to shorten your life by another ten years?" The girl curled her lips and threw herself into my arms and started crying.
I touched her back and comforted her: "Don't cry, this is not..." Just as I was about to tell her that the matter of shortening her life by ten years had been settled, I suddenly saw a familiar figure floating past me.
Isn't that Xuan Linlin? She is Yaxue's good friend. She was the one who fell into the water with Yaxue in Mingzhu Park. My comrade-in-arms rescued her. However, Yaxue and I became a couple, but my comrade-in-arms didn't match her up. When did she die at such a young age
I pushed Shen Bing away and called out to her from behind, "Linlin."
The person turned around and it was indeed Xuan Linlin. She looked at me for a long time before running back and saying with a smile, "I haven't seen you for three years. You have become old-fashioned. When did you come here?"
Oh my god, this is how you greet acquaintances when you meet them in the underworld.
"Just came over. When did you come over? What happened?"
"Oh, don't mention it. I came here with Yaxue three years ago."
What?! I jumped so high, Yaxue also came over, three years ago. I said you are kidding, Yaxue is still alive, isn't this a curse on her
Her eyes widened, looking particularly creepy: "You don't know, three years ago, after she returned to the provincial capital, she sat by the lake every day sighing. One day, for no apparent reason, she jumped into the lake. As a result, I jumped in too in a hurry to save her, but then I remembered that I couldn't swim, so I drowned with her."
I couldn't help but be stunned. This kind of joke is not something that can be made casually, and there is no need to lie to me in this situation. Is Yaxue really dead
