Underworld Store

This is a story about a human falling in love with a ghost at first sight.

It's also a story about a human operating a human world's small store in the underworld for a year, in excha...

Chapter 31

Chapter 31

Gi asked in confusion, "What is the Vegetable Patch Run?"

Luo Zhi also looked puzzled. He had never heard of the vegetable field cool run. "Running in the vegetable field?"

"No, no, it's a mobile game." Luo Yu explained to them, "In this game, you can earn coins and points by parkouring. Then, you can use the coins and points you earn to build a house of your dreams in the game. Even if you die, it doesn't matter. You can be resurrected infinitely and always have the chance to challenge. Everyone can play, regardless of wealth or status. There are also props to help you in the game."

"How is it? Isn't this kind of world particularly interesting?"

Gi crossed his arms: "I don't think so."

Luo Zhi looked at Luo Yu, and understood why Luo Yu's soul entered such a world.

The reason why people fall in love with and yearn for such a world is that in the game, everyone is equal, everyone has countless opportunities to be resurrected, and their living conditions are determined by their ability to pass levels. Even if one's ability is poor, in this game world, it will not be too bad. The most important point is that there will be no bad guys and no bloody incidents.

It is indeed a world that people yearn for, but it is ultimately illusory.

Luo Zhi smiled bitterly and said, "It's beautiful."

Luo Yu didn't notice the bitterness in his smile. He said, "Then when we return to the human world, I'll teach you how to play."

Luo Zhi hummed.

Luo Yu asked, "Then why did I enter the game world after my soul was taken away? Could it be that vegetable garden parkour really exists in the underworld?"

Luo Zhi said: "No, that is an illusory world projected from your mind."

Luo Yu was stunned, "Projection?"

Luo Zhi nodded: "Yes, it is projected according to your inner expectations, making you deeply trapped in it."

Luo Yu was half confused when he heard this, but he didn't want to delve into it at the moment. There was something more important to ask. If Luo Zhi knew this part of his heart, then what about the others?

Thinking of this, he asked cautiously, "So besides jumping around, I don't have any other behavior, right?"

Luo Zhi didn't know if he had guessed what he meant, but he smiled and said, "What do you want?"

“…”

After staring at each other awkwardly for a minute, Luo Yu finally noticed that something was missing from Luo Zhi's face. He asked, "Why aren't you wearing a mask?"

Luo Zhi said, "I lost it while looking for you. It's okay if I don't bring it with me."

Luo Yu was startled and asked, "Did you encounter any danger on your way to find me?"

Luo Zhi said, "You didn't run far, we found you soon, but..."

Luo Yu: "But what?"

Luo Zhi lowered his eyes, as if considering whether he should say this. After a long pause, he said, "I'm very worried."

Luo Yu couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth behind the mask. He looked up at the sky and asked nonchalantly, "Oh, worry. What does worry feel like? Is it uncomfortable?"

Luo Zhi said, “A little bit.”

Gi, who was standing by, took off her high heels and held them in her hands. She tiptoed over to Wang Sanpao and whispered in his ear, "So disgusting?"

Wang Sanpao also whispered, "You just found out? I almost vomited after hearing it."

Gi used the root of his high heels to shove Wang Sanpao's ass crack, "Try to spit it out, I'll make a huge hole out of you."

Wang Sanpao chuckled twice: "Just kidding, just kidding, people should learn to joke."

Gi raised an eyebrow: "Oh, you can do it now, you treat yourself as a human being."

Wang Sanpao said to Luo Yu and Nunu: "I learned this from Senior Luo Yu."

At this moment, they had been in Chishan for nearly two days. The original plan of leaving Chishan in three days was no longer possible, and Luo and Hunpo had just returned to their places, so they would definitely not be able to continue walking.

Luo Zhi said, "Let's rest here for a while and continue our journey tomorrow."

Luo Yu nodded, he really felt very tired.

Just as he was about to find a place to sit down, he saw Luo Zhi's hand put into the bag. It was then that he saw a lot of dried blood on Luo Zhi's hand. He was shocked and asked hurriedly: "What's the matter with the blood on your hand?"

Luo Zhishou paused and said, "I was accidentally cut by the knife, it's okay."

Luo Yu said self-reproachfully, "Maybe he encountered danger on his way to find me."

He was so focused on looking at Luo Zhi's face that he never even noticed the dried blood on his hands.

"No, I scratched myself accidentally." Luo Zhi pulled his hand out of the bag and opened his palm to show Luo Yu, who saw that the shocking wound on his palm was healing.

After a few seconds, the wound and blood disappeared completely.

Luo Zhi said, "Look, it has recovered."

Luo Yu felt less distressed after seeing this scene. He said, "Then if you get injured in the future, you must repair it immediately. It must have been a long time."

Luo Zhi patted his head and promised him, "I understand."

He put his hand into the bag again and took out the mahogany bed.

Because the mountain road was uneven, the bed was also crooked and unstable. Luo Zhi found a few stones nearby and placed them under the four legs of the bed to barely make it stable.

The moment Gi saw the bed, his mind went blank. For a long while, he pointed at the bed and said incoherently, "...Master, are you playing house?"

Luo Zhi: “Yeah.”

“…………”

Luo Yu fell on the bed, stretched his limbs for a while, then retracted them and said to the three of them, "Stop talking for now, lie down and rest together."

Luo Zhi lay next to Luo Yu, followed by Gi and Wang Sanpao.

The four of them squeezed shoulder to shoulder on a bed on the mountain road of Chishan, looking up at the sky. They looked like a family of four who loved each other very much and were sleeping. The only thing missing was a banner with the words "A harmonious family brings prosperity" hanging on the headboard.

Thus, this scene that is rarely seen in a thousand years appeared on this mountain road of Chishan.

If Ma Guibenben saw this scene, he would definitely write thousands of articles and spread them throughout the streets and alleys of the underworld.

Fortunately, he didn't know about this. If he really knew, I bet he could even make up a story like the four of them were in Chishan Mountain and were planning to steal rotten eggs to sell. He could also make it so vivid that it would make the ghosts angry, as if it were really true.

9 hours later.

He fell asleep and opened his eyes, but he did not sleep very soundly, because the crying sound of the child kept appearing in his mind.

Luo Yu breathed heavily.

"What's wrong?"

Luo Yu was startled and glanced sideways, and found that Luo Zhi had been looking at him.

Because there were four people squeezed on the bed, Luo Zhiluo and his body were pressed quite tightly together.

Their faces looked at each other so close that Luo Yu felt his throat tighten a little. He pursed his lips slightly, but he hesitated to take a step forward.

And there is no Luozhi either.

Gi, who was sleeping next to Luo Zhi, twitched his ears, wondering: Why is there no sound? Logically, shouldn't there be a French kiss at this moment?

Could it be that they are just having pure love and just giving a light kiss?

Hiss...this shouldn't be the case.

Wang Sanpao, who was sleeping soundly next to Gi, didn't notice that two people were secretly sparking love in the same bed, and one was peeping.

Luo Yu whispered: "Luo Zhi."

Luo Zhi: “Yeah.”

Luo Yu whispered, "You spend more time looking at my lips than my eyes."

Luo Zhi: “Yeah.”

Luo Yu moved his head forward a little. His voice was very low and sounded a little soft: "Why?"

This time, Luo Zhi took a long time to answer: "Does there have to be a reason?"

"Give me one."

"I can't give it to you." Luo Zhi said.

Gi next to him rolled his eyes and sighed in his heart: You love me but you are a coward, you will regret it later!

Luo Yu stared at those deep eyes for a long time, so long that he didn't even notice when Gi got out of bed.

And Luo Zhi just let him watch.

Da da da.

Gi put on his high heels again. This time, he used magic to change the color of the upper of his high heels to bright red. At this moment, he was performing a fashion show on the misty mountain road, but no one was watching.

Luo Yu gradually shifted his gaze when he heard the voice. He glanced at Gi who was walking on the runway with her hips twisting, sat up, straightened her back, and watched carefully.

Gi's gait was beautiful, his hips swinging sideways as his legs moved, the insides of his knees rubbing slightly, and his long hair fluttering with the swing of his movements.

At this time, Gi noticed that he had an audience and his steps became more graceful.

After walking back and forth a few times, Gi's heels started to hurt. She took off her high heels and confidently turned to her only audience, asking, "How's it going? My steps are no worse than those of you super A models, right?"

Luo Yu nodded and praised, "The Black Pearl of the Underworld."

Gi flipped his hair. He wasn't too curious about the black pearl Luo Yu mentioned. He just wanted to show off his accomplishments. He said, "I practiced this myself, but the Ghost King said it wasn't pretty. He must be presbyopic."

"Keep leading the way. The Ghost King probably can't understand, not because he's presbyopic." Luo Zhi suddenly said.

Gi snorted and walked to the front to lead the way, and the three of them followed behind as usual.

Luo Yu was a kind-hearted person. Although he felt a little uncomfortable about the conversation he had just had with Luo Zhi in bed, it was all in the past, so there was no need to worry about it all the time.

He is still the same as usual, teasing when necessary and being timid when necessary.

Only by being open-minded about everything can you face more interesting things.

He just didn't believe that in a few months, Luo Zhi would still be in this state of wanting to accept and reject.

Just wait! Sooner or later, you will be so bewildered by me that you will lose all sense of the world and know nothing about day or night, only love.

Luo Yu chewed the bread Luo Zhi gave him, thinking happily. Luo Yu said, "Luo Zhi, at this rate, how long will it take us to get out of Chishan?"

Luo Zhi said: "It shouldn't be a problem within three days."

Luo Yu said, "Oh, then which mountain will we pass after leaving Chishan?"

Luo Zhi asked, "Why do you like climbing mountains so much?"

Luo Yu shook his head and waved his hands: "No, no, no, I don't like this kind of mountain at all, eh?"

Luo Yu suddenly wondered: "How do you know I like climbing mountains?"

Luo Zhi was stunned for two seconds, then said, "You seem very happy now."

Luo Yu smirked: "There's a reason for that, do you want to know?"

Luo Zhi: "I don't want to."

Luo Yu clicked his tongue and said, "A ghost without curiosity is imperfect."

Wang Sanpao raised his hand and interrupted, "I want to know."

Luo Yu gave him a look of disdain and said, "You are not allowed to join in this topic."

As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Yu's hand was suddenly grabbed by Luo Zhi. Luo Yu's heart tightened and he asked, "What, what happened?"

Luo Zhi's eyes were serious, and he raised his hand to signal Luo Yu not to speak and keep quiet.

Gi also stopped at this time. It looked around and listened to the inaudible "dong dong" sound, as if some objects were colliding.

Wang Sanpao was confused and felt that the surroundings suddenly fell into deathly silence.

At this moment, there were suddenly two crisp sounds, and two objects slid down from the mountain, one on the left and one on the right.

They turned out to be two eggs wrapped in moldy nets!

Luo Yu immediately covered Luo Zhi's mouth and nose.

Luo Zhi was stunned, put down his hand and shook his head at him.

Gi twisted its neck, making a sharp, crisp sound. It said to Luo Zhi, "There are so many of them. Let's set up a barrier for them. We can take them out from both sides."

Luo Zhi looked at Luo Yu and said, "You and Wang Sanpao just stay here and don't move." After that, he stepped back a few steps and set up a barrier to surround Luo Yu and Wang Sanpao.

Luo Yu was about to step forward to ask what happened, but after taking two steps, his forehead hit a hard object.

Luo Zhi said to him, "Stay inside the barrier and don't move. I'll be back soon."

He turned to Gi and said, "I've never heard of rotten eggs attacking ghosts."

"Yes, this is manipulated." Gi laughed, "Master, congratulations, you are being targeted."

After saying this, Gi whooshed up the mountain on the left like a crawling lizard and disappeared from their sight.

Luo Zhi didn't stay long and also climbed up the mountain on the right.

He walked through the dead trees and bushes and arrived at a resting place. He saw a pile of eggs wrapped in moldy nets rolling towards him from the top of the mountain. The number was so large that it was comparable to the assembly line for producing fake eggs in a chicken farm.

Luo Zhi's eyes fixed, and a black-gold fountain pen with a sinister red glow appeared in his hand. Luo Zhi said in a deep voice:

"Destroy them all."

The pen cap fell off with a sound and floated upright in the air.

The moment the pen rushed forward, it turned into thousands of pens in the air, using the pens as swords to pierce the group of eggs.

Click, click—

The sound of eggshells breaking rang out one after another in the mountain, a fishy smell hit the face, and the ground was stained with black sticky liquid.

Luo Zhi opened his palm and swept it, and in an instant, thousands of pens turned into a sharp red light in the air.

With a loud bang!

Flying dust, countless broken eggshells, and black egg liquid paused briefly in the air before falling all over the ground.

Luo Zhi frowned as he smelled the foul smell, but could barely accept it.

At least it doesn’t stink like durian.

At this moment, the fog suddenly became thicker, as if all the other fog in the mountain was rushing towards this side, and the sound of rolling eggs came again.

But this time, it sounded even more ferocious than before.

One wave comes after another, and at this moment Luo Zhi is 100% sure of one thing.

There really was a ghost trying to kill him.

So who is it?

He actually controlled a group of rotten eggs to attack them?

Luo Zhi took advantage of this gap to think carefully. He rarely interacted with ghosts on a daily basis. The ghosts he interacted with the most were the twelve spirit beasts. As for the others, he didn't even want to look at them.

There will be no enemies without reason. If there is one thing he changed in the underworld, it was the time of this spirit beast competition. The Ghost King made an exception and held it two years in advance for him.

The two most suspicious ones are the Rat Ghost Heihei and the Ox Ghost Zhuangzhuang. The competition for the spirit beast was held two years in advance and it happened suddenly. These two were at the front of the queue and there was no time to prepare. It is reasonable for them to be resentful.

But these two have now returned triumphantly, and there is no time to heal their wounds. In addition, controlling a group of rotten eggs consumes a lot of spiritual energy, so these two can be completely eliminated.

Tiger Ghost Baba is currently in a fight, so he can also be ruled out.

So who are the remaining nine?

He had never had any dispute with the twelve spirit beasts, so no one was suspected, but everyone was suspected.

The sound of the rotten eggs rolling became clearer and clearer, and Bi Xian launched another attack.

Bi Xin is a pen with spiritual consciousness. Luo Zhi only needs to give an order and it will know what to do next.

"Luo Zhi!!!"

A sharp and miserable scream came, and Luo Zhi's heart suddenly rose to his throat.

This is Luo Yu's voice.
