For you (Special Killing Weapon for the Underworld's Impermanence)

Tian Baozhu and Hei Wuchang walked along the Wangchuan River again. This time the road was not so easy to walk on. After they took a few steps, they would be attacked by the spirits hiding in the red spider lilies.

"Senior, why did these things suddenly fly out from the red spider lily bush?"

"Normally, there wouldn't be any. Today is the day when the gates of hell are open. The overly strong magnetic and aura fields will interfere with the underworld and draw out difficult things."

Tian Baozhu was holding Meng Po's head in her hand and had no way to free her hands to take out the soul-calling bell, so she had to dodge left and right. After Hei Wuchang killed a spirit flying towards her, he took something out of his pocket and threw it at her.

"Next." A ring fell into her hand.

"This is a special killing weapon for the underworld's Impermanence. Normally, we wear the Impermanence uniform to intimidate, but this uniform isn't enough. Souls who have lingered too long in the world are enveloped by the excess energy and have lost their minds. It doesn't care if you're Impermanence or not. And you're not even wearing your uniform right now."

It turned out that he had just left to get this thing.

"So how do I use it?"

"Put it on the joint of your index or middle finger, aim at the target that is going to hurt you, and punch it."

Good, so simple and crude!

"So what's the name of this special killing weapon?"

"There's no specific name, you can call me whatever you like."

"How about a sobriety ring? You won't wear one?"

As he spoke, Hei Wuchang eliminated another evil spirit that had transformed into a spirit.

"This killing weapon has little killing power. These things are as annoying as insects. They are unwilling to be reincarnated as animals, and they are spinning in the gap between life and death, trying to get in as soon as the ghost gate opens. It is used to hurt the enemy. I have this, which is enough--"

As he stretched out his hand, the sickle that he had just thrown to the other side appeared out of thin air in his hand. The sickle seemed to have its own consciousness. After spinning rapidly for a few circles, Hei Wuchang made a move and it stopped steadily in Hei Wuchang's hand.

His sickle is sharp, reflecting the blood light, a good weapon!

In the past, the sickle was used and retracted very quickly, and Tian Baozhu almost couldn't see its "true appearance" carefully. Now, looking at it up close, it is indeed worthy of the Black Impermanence. If the cold light of the sickle was not so scary, Tian Baozhu almost applauded out loud. The man and the sickle are too compatible, integrated into one.

"Don't be stunned! Go ahead! Throw your fists!"

Before Tian Baozhu understood what was happening, her reaction nerves had already started to move quickly after hearing Hei Wuchang's command. She swung her right hand, which was wearing the Ring of Awakening, with force, "Snap!" A spirit that wanted to pounce on her face burst like a balloon.

Wow, it’s really powerful!

Tian Baozhu was confused when she saw the Awakening Ring on her hand. He had specially gone out to get this thing for her to protect herself. At least he wasn't a bad person, but he always wanted to force her to reincarnate and leave quickly, and let her take the risk with only a 50% success rate. Why...?

"Senior, I'll keep this ring of awakening."

…

He was silent again.

Forget it. She couldn't get an answer as to why Hei Wuchang wanted her to leave the underworld as soon as possible. Maybe he was just used to the working relationship with his old partner. With a new person around him, he would have to pay more attention to worry about her and take care of her every time. Any normal person in the workplace would choose the old partner.

Thinking of this, she stood at attention, saluted him and swore:

"I promise to adapt to the work in the underworld as soon as possible and will not hold you back or cause you any more trouble!"

Hei Wuchang said nothing and walked around her. Just as Tian Baozhu was sighing, thinking it was just another stone sinking to the bottom of the water without an echo, a cold but warning voice came from the front of her:

"Don't get used to this underworld. Once you do, you're done."

※※※

They walked back to the area near where Meng Po's head was found and saw a man in a cloak half-kneeling on the ground, groping and crawling among the red spider lilies, as if looking for something. Was he looking for a head?

Tian Baozhu suddenly thought of the head in her hand. She asked Hei Wuchang, "Is that person over there Meng Po?"

"If you mean the cape, it looks like her."

Does he only recognize people based on reference points? Doesn't he recognize people without reference points? Okay, no matter what, they'll go up and say hello.

"Hello, are you Meng Po?"

The other person turned around without answering. His large cloak concealed most of his physical features. The hood of the cloak was dark, and it was impossible to tell whether he had a head or not.

The other party "looked" at Tian Baozhu to the left and right, and suddenly she stood up, stretched out her hands towards Tian Baozhu, and grabbed Meng Po's head.

He "put" his head into the hood of his cloak, then pressed it hard. Tian Baozhu could vaguely hear a "click".

"Yes, I am Meng Po. Who are you?"

Ah, she spoke! It was a lazy and cold female voice.

"Hello, I'm Tian Baozhu, the new second generation of Bai Wuchang. I have a farming mission from Lord Yama to transform the underworld. We're here to discuss borrowing red spider lily seeds from you."

"Bai Wuchang has changed to a second generation?"

Meng Po pointed her question at Tian Baozhu, but turned to Hei Wuchang for confirmation.

He nodded.

"Oh, the ghost messengers Black and White Impermanence want to plant flowers?" Meng Po said with disdain. She said, "Let's talk about this after I finish my work."

She looked up at the sky again.

"It's already so late, and I've wasted half a day trying to find the source. The Ghost Gate only opens for a limited time, and if I miss it, I have to wait until the next fifteen days. I wanted to finish the work quickly, but I've accumulated so much. It's really annoying."

Tian Baozhu and Hei Wuchang had no choice but to listen to Meng Po's complaints about "the endless work piles up" and followed Meng Po all the way back to Naihe Bridge.
