I was shocked. Damn, it's fine if they don't help, but why are they still settling old scores? I touched my nose and smiled, "Gentlemen, this happened so long ago, I think you should show some mercy and let me go."
The Seventh Master did not say anything, and the Eighth Master snorted coldly: "Even if we show mercy, the higher-ups will not let us off. Do you know what happens when a ghost messenger makes a mistake?"
I shook my head. I really don’t know.
The Eighth Master said, "If a ghost messenger makes a mistake, he will go to the Underworld through the Soul Devouring Well. So, do you want us to go to that place because of your matter?"
Damn, is it that serious? The Eighth Master is not easy to talk to, he is more old-fashioned, not as smooth as the Seventh Master. I smiled and said to the Seventh Master: "How dare I let you two masters suffer because of me. But, can you two masters show me a way so that I can avoid this death penalty?"
Master Qi sighed and said, "Well, since we are friends, we two brothers will not arrest you now. As for the bright road, the whole underworld is now cracking down on corruption, and I am afraid that it will be useless for you to bribe anyone. You figure it out yourself. If you can't settle this matter before dawn, we two brothers will have no choice but to arrest you!"
After saying this, the two brothers looked at each other, and Mr. Ba reluctantly put away the chain and flew lightly to the next street.
I stood there, not knowing what to do as I watched them disappear. The underworld was carrying out an anti-corruption campaign, so I guess bribery wouldn't work. Besides, I didn't bring anything with me, so what could I do? After thinking about it, I decided to go find my ancestor. If he refused to see me, I would knock down the stone tablet for him. I wondered if he would come out.
Ma Dawen followed me and asked me what my future wife looked like and when we would meet. I was so upset that I didn't care about this. I told him that the girl was pretty and asked him to go back first. I would arrange a meeting for you two when I returned to the world of the living. Ma Dawen went happily.
When I got back to Zhongping Street, I saw two ghost officers escorting a female ghost towards the management office. I turned around and took a look. I almost fainted when I saw her. She was Shen Bing!
What happened? How did she die? It's really one thing after another. I'm worried about this matter being settled, and now you're involved. What should I do
I quickly ran over and stopped them, and said to the two ghost messengers with a smile, "Hello, sirs. May I ask how she died?"
When Shen Bing saw me, she acted like she was seeing a stranger, with a blank look in her eyes and no reaction at all. I thought that she must have just died and hadn't recovered yet.
A ghost officer raised his eyebrows and shouted, "Who dares to stop me from handling the case?"
I winked at them and smiled, "You two gentlemen have forgotten that you have been to my shop and I gave you Yin-replenishing pills." Generally, the ghost messengers who often go out to collect souls will all visit my shop, and I have taken care of them all.
This guy looked at me, then at his companions, and seemed to be sure that I was the owner of the Ghost Shop. He nodded and said, "So it's Boss Xi. When did you die?"
I touched my nose and said, "Just died, just died."
"Oh. This female ghost has been specifically wanted by the higher-ups. I heard that she once broke into the City of the Dead and even sneaked into the Release Point. She might be sent to hell." As he said this, he pushed Shen Bing, walked around me, and floated away to the west.
I turned around in a daze, thinking that I came at the right time. It seemed that they were going to arrest Shen Bing and me today. Fortunately, the Seventh Master and the Eighth Master left a little later, otherwise if they really caught me, they would not be able to let me go.
