Gifts were piled on both sides of the gate. When she went out, she was only looking at the road ahead and didn't notice the scenery on both sides of the road.

I noticed this on the way back and couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

"It's really... a bit stressful."

In the Hall of Yama, Chu Ze was holding a piece of red velvet grass in his mouth, leaning lazily in front of the stone table as if he had no bones.

Even though the underworld had replaced the tables, chairs and lazy sofas with more comfortable ones, he still liked this position the most.

Bai Ningning saw him so leisurely and was furious: "Did you deliberately lie to me?"

Chu Ze had something in his mouth and spoke in a slurred, lazy tone: "Oh, how could this happen? I wanted to tell you that everything was fine, but you ran away before I even finished listening."

Bai Ningning: "I believe you have a ghost."

"There really is a ghost." Chu Ze laughed happily, then pretended to be serious and coughed twice. "I wanted to return the gifts before you came, but since you insisted on coming to see it, there's nothing I can do. How about it? Are you stressed out seeing so many gifts?"

Bai Ningning: "Thank you so much."

It was obvious that he had intentionally let her see the pile of gifts, but now he was pretending in front of her and saying that he wanted to dispose of them quietly.

hypocritical.

Chu Ze propped up his face with one hand and looked at her meaningfully: "It's not a spirit state, but it's not uncomfortable at all, right?"

She opened the door to the underworld and said, "I'll go change. Bye."

Chu Ze yawned and said lazily, "I'm so envious."

Cheng Xiu looked at him in confusion when he heard that.

She had not been in the underworld for long, but she felt that she had heard the word "envy" from Mr. Chu several times.

Are you envious of youth?

Cheng Xiu didn't quite understand and was trying to think from Mr. Chu's perspective. Before she could figure it out, she heard some movement from the person on the hospital bed.

A very subtle rustling sound caused by moving a finger.

But the underworld was too quiet, and even this slight movement was very noticeable.

Chu Ze frowned and stood by the bed, staring down at Yuan Muyang, who hadn't opened his eyes yet, and asked, "How much did you think he heard?"

No one answered.

Ma Juan, her daughter and her two children looked at each other, not knowing who Mr. Chu was asking or whether he was talking to himself.

Chu Ze seemed to have really started mumbling to himself: "If I kill someone now to silence them, I shouldn't be held accountable, right? It's normal for the King of Hell to take my life."

He obviously had no intention of taking action. He just said something to scare the young man who seemed to be unconscious, so as to determine whether he was currently awake or unconscious.

But Cheng Xiu took it seriously. She was so frightened that she quickly stood in front of Yuan Muyang and said fearfully but bravely: "Ms. Ningning said that there is still use for him!"

She finished the sentence without any pause, but her voice was shaking.

Mr. Chu’s image is usually approachable and easy to talk to, but now he exudes a terrifying smell that makes people shudder unconsciously.

Cheng Xiu just walked in by mistake, but still found it scary.

Fortunately, Chu Ze was able to control his aura freely, and instantly became gentle, polite and harmless, and lazily sat back in his seat.

The oppressive feeling dissipated, and Cheng Xiu sat down on the ground with a sense of relief, as if she had just walked through the gates of hell. But then she thought again, she was living in the gates of hell now.

When Bai Ningning came back, she happened to see this scene. She helped Cheng Xiu up and asked, "What happened?"

Chu Ze looked lazy and indifferent: "This brat is about to wake up. I just wanted to scare him to test him, but I accidentally scared this little girl."

"It's okay, my legs are just a little weak." Cheng Xiu covered her face and felt a little embarrassed, so she hid aside.

Bai Ningning glanced at Yuan Muyang and said hello to Chu Ze: "I'm going to walk around the back areas, do you want to come?"

Chu Ze stood up and walked out without saying a word.

Bai Ningning waved to Ma Juan, her mother and daughter, and went out.

Chu Ze was waiting for Bai Ningning at the door. He continued walking forward after seeing her come out, complaining with an unhappy look on his face, "Are you siding with that brat?"

Bai Ningning: "Ah? What are you angry about? Have you apologized to Cheng Xiu?"

Chu Ze: “…”

Are the two people communicating across channels?

[Generation gap, this is it]

[In the end, no one cared about us Mu Yang at all. How miserable!]

The two of them walked in silence all the way to District 4. Chu Ze finally couldn't help but speak: "If you have something to say, just say it. If you want to find a place without ears, go to Wangchuan. Xiaoyan is not here right now."

Bai Ningning looked at him with an expression of "What are you talking about?" Chu Ze even read the meaning of "Are you not very smart?"

"Isn't it?" Chu Ze guessed wrong but didn't take it to heart. He glanced in the direction of the training ground, "Or do you want to take me to see the ghost messengers' training? I've already seen it..."

Bai Ningning sped up and said with a hint of disdain, "Didn't we say we were going to the back areas?"

“…”

Chu Ze didn't expect that she actually just dragged him out for a street parade. He had thought that she had something to say, and he had been thinking a lot about how to treat a rebellious girl.

Chu Ze: "So you want to □□?"

Bai Ningning: "Don't cause any trouble first. Let me see the Ghost Alliance... They should have sent down two batches of ghosts before."

"What do we need them for? They're just a bunch of insignificant guerrillas."

When Chu Ze heard that fighting was not allowed, he instantly felt bored, but he still followed Bai Ningning.

Bai Ningning: "The first batch are indeed wandering souls. I am mainly looking for the ghosts in the second batch. They should be organized."

Chu Ze wondered: "Do you still remember what they look like?"

"I've marked them all. All we need is to catch one to lead the way."

Just as Bai Ningning finished speaking, she caught a glimpse of a familiar ghost who was helping the reckless ghost pick up the red velvet grass scattered on the ground.

Bai Ningning waited until he finished picking up the things, then grabbed him.

The other party was like a mouse seeing a cat, subconsciously wanting to run away, but unfortunately he couldn't break free, so he could only stammer and explain: "I, I was just doing a good deed!"

"Yes, this gentleman just helped me..." The ghost who was helped also wanted to help him clarify, but after seeing that it was Bai Ningning, he quickly changed his words, "But the little King of Hell's judgment will definitely not be wrong. This kind ghost, have you done anything wrong recently?"

Kind-hearted Mr. Ghost: "..."

Bai Ningning smiled and said, "Don't worry, I haven't done anything wrong. I just wanted to ask this kind ghost to do me a favor."

"That's good. Thanks again."

The helped ghost breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to leave with the red velvet grass.

Bai Ningning let go of her hand and smiled as if she was full of evil intentions: "Zhang Xi, right?"

Zhang Xi looked at her with a wry smile, and felt a chill on his back.

She seemed to have smiled like this before, and then wiped out the Dancheng base of their Ghost Alliance.

When most members lined up to go to the underworld, they didn't know what was going on.

It was not until they were dispersed and sent to different districts and told that they could choose to reincarnate or stay for a long time that they felt something was wrong.

Didn't the old tree say at the beginning that they were just moving to a new base? How did they end up moving to the underworld?

But the underworld doesn’t seem to be as scary as the rumors say. At least there’s no need to climb mountains of swords or plunge into seas of fire, nor does it require boiling oil pots.

Zhang Xi is quite satisfied with his current life and has met many kind friends and neighbors.

But after all, he had been in the Ghost Alliance before, and the Ghost Alliance and the underworld have always been opposites. The King of Hell came to find him at this time, most likely to settle the score.

Bai Ningning: "Lead the way, gather all the members of the Ghost Alliance in this area and hold a small meeting."

Zhang Xi’s first reaction: This woman wants to take down everyone at once again!

Zhang Xi shook his head fiercely. "Impossible! I wouldn't betray the organization like Shu Lao did! Besides, everyone is very nice and has been doing good things lately."

Bai Ningning suddenly didn't want to explain anymore and smiled sinisterly: "If I hang you up, will the members of your organization come to rescue you?"

Bai Ningning did what she thought. She used her spiritual power to pinch a large strip of calligraphy, tied it to Zhang Xi, and sent them to the sky above the underworld.

Zhang Xi screamed in fear, then immediately covered his mouth - the louder the noise he made, the more people would see him, and he would fall into the trap of the evil woman!

The banner had a few simple words written on it: "Members of the Ghost Alliance, come and gather quickly."

Chu Ze looked up at the sky and said sarcastically, "You really look like a villain."

Bai Ningning: "Thank you for the compliment."

Chu Ze: "You can't fool people this way, right?"

Bai Ningning: "Well, it's a good opportunity to do some screening. I only want those ghosts who knew it was a trap but were still willing to save him."

This type of ghost has at least one of the following qualities: kindness, bravery, and loyalty.

Bai Ningning thought she had nothing better to do, so she made a chessboard appear out of thin air on the ground, sat down cross-legged on one side, and asked, "Want to play chess?"

Chu Ze glanced at the chessboard, his eyes twitching: "What kind of chess is this?"

Bai Ningning: "Flying chess."

Chu Ze instantly understood the look she gave him as a fool, and helplessly held his forehead: "...I know, I'm asking what kind of flying chess the two of them are playing?"

Bai Ningning pointed to the top of her head: "To give him a sense of participation. Otherwise, it would be too boring to just hang in the air."

Zhang Xi: “…”

I thank you!

Zhang Xi shouted loudly: "I will not give in!"

He tried to roll up the banner hanging on him so that no one could see the words on it.

The only advantage of being a ghost may be that you are not afraid of heights, because you know that you will not die if you fall down and you can float. In addition, ghosts are not heavy, so you don’t feel uncomfortable hanging in the sky.

Bai Ningning didn't care about his little tricks at all. From time to time, she would send the dice up to the sky for him to roll a number, and then make moves for him, which made Zhang Xi feel a little involved.

Zhang Xi discovered that even if he didn't move, the dice would move on their own after touching him, and he participated in the game from a distance while cursing.

I don’t know if it was a good luck buff from the sky or Zhang Xi was just born lucky, but when all four of his planes went out, Chu Ze was still looking at the four planes in his base parked neatly in place with a depressed look on his face, and then continued to roll the dice.

Bai Ningning: "...Your luck is truly unique."

Chu Ze was so angry that he wanted to overturn the chessboard.

Bai Ningning said casually, "Could it be that the fourth player left before you?"

As soon as the words fell, the first ghost who came out to save Zhang Xi appeared, and appeared behind them fiercely: "Quickly let Zhang Xi go!"

Bai Ningning patted the empty seat next to her and said, "You're still early. The next one will just have to watch from the side."

"Come on, throw a number."

She handed the dice to the new player.

The other party was a little confused and a little angry, glaring at her.

Bai Ningning didn't care, just staring at the dice. After the dice touched him, it rolled a number, 4.

Bai Ningning shook her head and sighed: "My luck isn't very good either."

She didn't even bother to look at the other person's expression. She threw the dice up to Zhang Xi and said, "It's your turn."

Zhang Xi wanted to shout "Run", but no sound came out. He threw the dice out with force as if to vent his anger.

No matter how off-center he hits the dice, they will always land safely on the board.

Bai Ningning held the banner fixed in the air, took Zhang Xi down, and sat him in the last empty seat around the chessboard. She said, "More members should be arriving soon. For now, I'll appoint Zhang Xi as captain, and the first Lucky Ghost to arrive as vice-captain. The next few to arrive will be team members. I'll entrust you with the security of the remaining areas."

"Hey!" Zhang Xi yelled in dissatisfaction, "Why do I have to work for the underworld?"

Bai Ningning smiled and said, "Or do you want to tell me about the Ghost Alliance? I'd be happy to hear any information."

Zhang Xi had a terrified expression, obviously frightened by her strange smile.

Bai Ningning casually rolled the dice, moving the pieces according to the points, and said slowly, "I'm a lazy person, so I like to find some well-organized organizations to do my work. Or you can report other organizations that can take over this job. The Ghost Alliance must have a few rivals, right?"

While speaking, Chu Ze gathered a few of the ghosts that were sneaking around and peeking over and said, "These are also accomplices."

Bai Ningning corrected: "What do you mean by accomplice? You should call him companion."

Zhang Xi: “?”

The tied-up members of the Ghost Alliance: "???"

Bai Ningning exuded a ghostly aura and revealed a terrifying smile: "If you do well, you will be paid. If you don't do well, you will be boiled in the oil pan. I don't know if you can be used as fertilizer in the underworld..."

“……!!!”
