Su Zhenzhen is an intern in the Underworld of the 906th century. After eight months on the job, her performance record is zero. If she keeps this up, she'll be kicked out! To save her job, she ...
Chapter 139: Su Zhenzhen Suspected of Unlocking a New Skill
It seems that the Hu family members did indeed die because of infighting.
Combined with Hu Yong's previous nonsensical remarks, it is clear that a conflict of interest has arisen between the Xu and Hu families.
What interests do they share? The answer is clearly with Hensheng.
How could a powerful minister not be tempted by the emperor's son, who was still an infant?
Whether it was protecting their master's escape or a hidden scheme, the truth is hard to say.
It's unclear what role Old Mrs. Xu played in all of this, but she seemed particularly convinced that her relatives were loyal to the emperor and loved their country.
The living can lie, but the dead absolutely cannot. Let alone a remnant soul with impaired intelligence.
And the system broadcasts in my mind will not be wrong.
Having confirmed the Hu family's injustice and severed the karmic ties binding them, Su Zhenzhen immediately opened the path of reincarnation.
Chunzhi had seen the cycle of reincarnation when Xu Hua died, so she wasn't particularly surprised.
However, Su Zhenzhen still added, "This is the cycle of reincarnation. Only souls that enter the cycle of reincarnation can be reborn. Souls that are blocked outside the cycle of reincarnation can only wander in the world until they perish. The souls of the Hu family have been wandering in the world for twenty years and have been eroded by the years, resulting in incomplete souls. Even after reincarnation, they may still have some drawbacks."
The drawback is obvious; a missing soul makes one practically an idiot. But what's done is done, and dwelling on it is pointless.
Chunzhi's expression turned dejected. "What can I do for them?"
"Push Hu Yong into the cycle of reincarnation. These remnant souls are not fully aware of their existence and may not be so fixated on reincarnation. You are, after all, the daughter-in-law of the Hu family, and you have a familiar aura on you. They won't reject you. Don't worry about Hu Yong. He is a living soul, and the cycle of reincarnation will keep his soul out."
Chunzhi did as she was told, and carrying Hu Yong, she headed towards the Path of Reincarnation.
Although Hu Yong offered some resistance, his reaction was not intense. As others approached the Path of Reincarnation, an invisible aura surged into the Path of Reincarnation, which should be the remnant souls of the Hu family members.
After the Hu family members' spirits left, Hu Yong instantly became quiet, looking both pitiful and hateful.
While closing the Cycle of Reincarnation, Su Zhenzhen looked at Chunzhi and said, "It's not safe for Hu Yong to stay in Yangcheng like this. Why don't we send him to Shanxian to be with Old Man Bai? Anyway, he won't run around or make a fuss now. Just give him some food and drink so he doesn't starve to death."
Chunzhi nodded, accepted Su Zhenzhen's suggestion, and immediately found someone to arrange the matter.
Seven more sales figures were added, but Su Zhenzhen couldn't feel happy.
Something felt off. Previously, the performance was only considered complete when the soul entered the cycle of reincarnation, but now the system was issuing a notification that their grievances had been exposed.
Furthermore, while he cannot make the spirits of the dead manifest, he can open the path of reincarnation at will, as if this path of reincarnation were his own bedroom.
Su Zhenzhen had seen Sister Chao open the Path of Reincarnation before. She always had to burn incense and pray before opening it, and she always thought it was some kind of strange ritual. But considering her own situation, it seemed that it was easier for her to open the Path of Reincarnation than for Sister Chao.
Many things that I hadn't paid attention to in the 906th century are now replaying in my mind.
Underworld Partners is a large company that occupies an entire building. Although it has various departments and positions, I feel like I've only actually met two people: Sister Chao and the boss.
Su Zhenzhen suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. It belatedly dawned on her that the underworld partners worked with the dead, so could all the other employees in that office building be ghosts?
"Zhenzhen, what's wrong?" Hensheng, who was always watching Su Zhenzhen, saw her shiver and quickly came over to shield her from the wind. "Is it a little cold from the wind?"
"I'm fine." Su Zhenzhen's face was pale. Dead people aren't really scary, but this kind of belated realization is terrifying.
A bizarre thought suddenly popped into his mind: Am I even alive? Why can I open the cycle of reincarnation so easily? Could it be that I've always been a ghost?
“You don’t look well. The Hu family has seven members. Did they give you seven extra performance bonuses?” Hensheng held Su Zhenzhen’s hand. “You’ve been working too hard lately. Don’t push yourself so hard. You should take a break.”
Su Zhenzhen's mind was in complete turmoil. She followed Hensheng's suggestion to go back to rest, but she couldn't fall asleep no matter what she did while lying in bed.
I wonder if I can dream of going back to the 906th century when I'm asleep.
well.
The last time I saw Sister Chao, she didn't reveal any information, so I could only guess.
In Su Zhenzhen's original worldview, she was a living, breathing person who dedicated herself to speaking out for the dead and redressing the grievances of the world.
But if she was a ghost, when exactly did she become one? According to the mystical teachings of ghosts and spirits, why didn't she reincarnate? What grievances did she suffer? And who will guide her to salvation?
Su Zhenzhen dislikes meddling in other people's affairs before handling her own; she finds such behavior arrogant and idiotic.
After thinking about all sorts of random things, Su Zhenzhen felt a bit of a headache. Her mind was filled with random thoughts and fragmented images, like trying to switch channels on TV when the signal was bad.
I was stuck in my mind for a while, and the comments were pushed down by the visuals.
Then Su Zhenzhen started watching TV in her mind. Not only was the feeling very strange, but the content was also quite explosive.
The scene is set on an ancient mountain road, where two women dressed as women are fleeing in panic with three boys. Their once gorgeous robes are now stained and their original colors are no longer visible.
The youngest child tripped and fell, and the group stopped, surrounding the boy with anxious expressions.
The boy grinned and said he was fine, but the older woman suggested they rest where they were.
The group was already exhausted, but seeing that the place was deserted, they felt a little relieved and prepared to rest for a while.
The young woman examined her son's injuries, sighing, "I should have left you and your brother with that farmer."
The boy smiled nonchalantly, "Mother, my brother doesn't remember anything yet, and you left money for that farming family, so they can raise him as their own son. I'm an adult now, if I stay there too, they'll be wary of me."
The young woman couldn't help but wipe away her tears, her voice choked with sobs, "We must all live to reach the border region. Once we see General Huo, we'll be safe, and then we can bring your brother back."
However, what she didn't know was that General Huo, whom she longed for, had already died in battle and his body was nowhere to be found.
Su Zhenzhen was basically certain that the scene in her mind was the Hu family's escape route twenty years ago. Despite the excruciating pain in her head, she forced herself to finish reading the rest of the content.
