"Just kidding, people still need to be saved."
As Bai Ningning was talking, she wanted to go to the refrigerator to get her bottle of water, but she found it was filled with all kinds of drinks.
She asked, "Has anyone been here today?"
Chu Ze curled his lips: "Come to show filial piety."
Under the pretext of filial piety, they sent him a bunch of drinks that he didn't drink at all.
He is truly a father, a kind son, and a filial son.
Chu Ze was too lazy to bother with these unfilial sons and said, "Send medicine to their door? Impossible."
The regular meeting was suddenly moved up, and then the news came out that Yuan Muyang was critically ill. Qingweishan quickly made a list of medicinal materials and stuffed them into the temporarily moved up regular meeting.
Either it was a test, or Yuan Muyang was really very dangerous.
The latter possibility is not ruled out, but Chu Ze's attitude is more inclined towards the former, and no matter who looks at it, the former is more likely.
"Wouldn't it be better if we just test it and go back?" Bai Ningning snapped her fingers and smiled slyly, "Let them send the person to the underworld, is that okay?"
Chu Ze frowned: "Are you going to take risks?"
Bai Ningning: "No need. Leave a message for them and ask them to leave the person at the Underworld Office on Earth at the door. Only Yuan Muyang can stay here, and everyone else nearby must retreat a thousand meters away. Is that a strict condition?"
Chu Ze smiled and said, "That's quite clever. If Yuan Muyang wasn't critically ill and had nowhere else to go, Qingwei Mountain definitely wouldn't have sent him here."
Bai Ningning nodded, smiling the same way. "Yes, I don't think it's that simple, so I'm going to ask Shu Lao to move them."
The two of them looked at each other, and at the same time, they showed a wicked smile with only one corner of their mouths raised.
[He's showing his bad face...]
【Who is the villain? 】
[It actually makes me want to yell, "Mu Yang, run!"]
Bai Ningning saw Chu Ze still reading the information and said, "I'm going to the underworld tonight. Aren't you going too?"
"I still have some things to deal with. I'll go back to the underworld after I finish them." Chu Ze supported his face with one hand and turned the page with the other. He looked extremely lazy, and he didn't forget to point fingers at Bai Ningning, "But you, drink iced drinks before bed, be careful of stomach upset."
Bai Ningning didn't take it seriously, and seemed to be deliberately going against him. She sat opposite him, drank the ice drink, and then slowly left.
Chu Ze waited until her back disappeared around the corner before gently shaking his head and sighing, "It's the rebellious period of a child."
The first thing Bai Ningning did when she arrived in the underworld was to find the Black and White Impermanence to confirm that the two ghost officials had returned to normal.
Only after seeing him in person did she confirm: "You guys are just trying to be brave, right?"
Xie Bian avoided her gaze and said with a straight face, "No, I've recovered."
Fan Wujiu smoothed things over between the two of them, and didn't think anything was wrong. He said, "You can indeed use your powers. It just has a slight side effect. It will hurt a little when you use your powers, but it's not a big deal and will go away soon."
Disappearing hammer.
If left unchecked, the side effects will only grow stronger until your life is burned out.
Without saying a word, Bai Ningning dragged the two back to the human world, pushed them in front of Chu Ze, and said, "Now there's another reason to trade."
Xie Bian looked embarrassed and reluctant.
Fan Wujiu reluctantly pulled his partner to sit down.
Chu Ze was aware of their situation and knew that they did not want Bai Ningning to see their current embarrassment.
Chu Ze smiled and jokingly whispered, "Oh, you were caught?"
[A responsible little Yama, no one can escape the eyes of Yama]
【Director Ning is online】
[I feel like this was Director Ning's script from the beginning. Could Yuan Muyang's serious illness also be related to Ning Ning?]
So after finalizing the script, you immediately brought back the key actors?
Bai Ningning: “…”
It's not as wild as this.
Bai Ningning stroked her chin in thought, "Then let's make a tentative plan. I'll have the people from Qingwei Mountain take Yuan Muyang to the Underworld's office on earth at the gate of Qingwei Mountain. After they leave, I'll have the old tree take him away. This way, Yuan Muyang will be a hostage, and we can negotiate terms with Yuan Xiushuo."
Fan Wujiu asked, "Do you want him to help us remove the seal?"
Bai Ningning: "No, this is no different from a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth."
She didn't like giving the initiative to others. What if Yuan Xiushuo was up to something and took the Black and White Impermanence, whose powers were sealed, hostage and used them to threaten her?
Bai Ningning said, "As long as you get the revised formation design, you can break the seal yourself, right?"
Xie Bian nodded firmly: "Yes, this time for sure."
Bai Ningning: "So we just need to design the drawings."
Fan Wujiu felt that someone as sinister and cunning as Yuan Xiushuo would definitely not honestly give them what they wanted, so he asked, "What if there is a trick?"
Bai Ningning: "Then let's do an experiment with the Ghost Alliance first, or are there any ghost messengers who have defected from the underworld?"
"No." Chu Ze gave a negative answer immediately and was quite sure.
[Laughing to death, the dignity of the underworld cannot be trampled upon]
[You can say we in the underworld are bad, but you can't question the loyalty of our ghost messengers! This is a lifelong contract.]
[In fact, the ghost family is quite good, or in other words, the parents are very humane. When you are tired, you can take a long vacation. If you don’t want to work anymore, you can return to the identity of an ordinary ghost or reincarnate.]
Bai Ningning knew she had stepped on a minefield: "Sorry, I didn't mean anything else, I just said it casually, don't take it seriously."
Chu Ze waved his hand nonchalantly, indicating that the topic was over, and said, "I'll take the initiative to be the guinea pig."
He is a ghost messenger, and his physique is most similar to that of the Black and White Impermanence.
Moreover, given his condition, he was already dying, so it didn't matter even if he was sealed or killed.
At least that's what Chu Ze thought.
He felt that with Bai Ningning, the underworld no longer needed him - or in other words, if he disappeared, the underworld would be better able to keep Bai Ningning.
"That won't do." Bai Ningning immediately rejected the proposal with a firm attitude. "That won't do. I just went to Xuanmen with your image. If you get killed, wouldn't my acting be in vain?"
"……I see."
Chu Ze thought about the greetings he received on his phone tonight from all sorts of people who seemed like friends but weren't quite friends, and he roughly understood what was going on.
Bai Ningning dealt with it vaguely: "There are other ways to verify whether the design is correct or not. Anyway, let's follow this method first. Is there any objection?"
Fan Wujiu asked: "Should we contact them now?"
Bai Ningning: "No, let's leave it alone for the night. We'll talk about it when we wake up tomorrow. I'll take care of this matter."
After the three top ghost messengers of the underworld agreed, Bai Ningning yawned and went back to her room: "Then I'm going to sleep. Don't mess around."
Before she went to sleep, she went to the underworld again and asked Ma Juan, "Can you help me post a recruitment notice? I need a ghost with good hands to fold paper figurines for me."
After Bai Ningning sent Ma Juan, her mother and daughter to the underworld, Chu Ze started to be lazy and left all the chores of the underworld to them.
Cheng Xiu looked at her admiringly: "Can I fold it? How much do you need? Are you in a hurry?"
Bai Ningning didn't expect her to be so proactive in this regard: "Sure... It's not urgent, but aren't you very busy?"
Cheng Xiu: "The workload has decreased recently. Mr. Chu said that there will still be work to do after the underworld goes electronic, so he gave us some free time for now, just like a vacation."
Bai Ningning: “…”
Wow, Chu Ze started making big promises without even starting to plan.
Bai Ningning held her forehead and said, "Okay, let's recruit a few more ghost world residents with a major in physics, and also those with a major in the Internet of Things or computer science."
Cheng Yun was usually taciturn and just looked at her silently. After hearing what she said, he took the initiative to speak: "I can try, and I can be an interviewer."
Cheng Xiu boasted on her sister's behalf: "My sister is a master of engineering!"
"That's great." Bai Ningning stated her needs concisely. "We need to design a program for the Underworld. The initial function requires recording the movement of people in each district of the Underworld. It would be best if all the paperwork you are currently doing could be moved to the computer."
Cheng Xiu: "Intelligent underworld?"
Bai Ningning: "Yes, that's what I mean."
Cheng Xiu, like a child, suddenly raised her hands excitedly: "Okay! I'll help too!"
Bai Ningning: "You can do it too?"
"No!" Cheng Xiu responded loudly, her voice unjustified but confident. "I can help serve tea and water and run errands!"
Bai Ningning smiled and waved her hand: "Okay, thank you for your help. You've worked hard, remember to rest, you don't need to stay here all the time."
"Good night--" Ma Juan, her mother and daughter waved goodbye at the same time and watched her leave.
Ghosts don't need sleep or rest.
And they don’t feel bored staying here. Only by staying here can they see Bai Ningning for the first time.
Cheng Xiu looked relieved: "Finally I can help."
Cheng Yun sat down silently, picked up a pen and paper and began to write the first draft of the design.
The next morning, Qingwei Mountain.
When Zhuo Yang woke up, he found a letter on the table with a few clear and obvious words on it:
"A personal letter from Yuan Xiushuo."
Zhuo Yang felt a chill on his back and was terrified. Who sneaked into his room in the middle of the night, left a letter, and left quietly?
If he was from Qingwei Mountain, why not send him directly to Yuan Xiushuo?
But if he was not from Qingwei Mountain, how could he come and go freely in Qingwei Mountain without disturbing anyone?
Zhuo Yang had a hunch that the letter was very hot and he couldn't give it directly to Yuan Xiushuo.
But I'm afraid it won't work if I don't give it to him.
Yuan Xiushuo has been guarding Yuan Muyang's room, and if he sends it directly there, he will definitely find out.
Zhuo Yang decided to deliver the letter to Xu Wanhui's room while no one was paying attention - he didn't dare to deliver it to Yuan Xiushuo, but there would definitely be no problem delivering it to his wife, and Xu Wanhui was much easier to deal with than Yuan Muyang.
He hid the letter in the inner pocket of his sportswear, intending to go out as usual as if nothing had happened, and then quietly deliver the hot potato when no one was around.
It’s a pity that I ran into Yao Mao as soon as I went out. His red hair was very eye-catching.
Yao Mao greeted him cheerfully: "Good morning, going out for morning exercise?"
Zhuo Yang secretly cursed his bad luck. If it was that idiot Fang Kuida, he could still handle it.
Yao Mao is a smart man. If he finds that something is wrong with him, he will follow him until he finds out the truth.
After Yao Mao stood shoulder to shoulder with him, he whispered, "What happened? Why is the mountain closed?"
Zhuo Yang: "Do you want to explore it?"
Yao Mao shrugged: "Forget it, I can live longer if I stay away from danger."
Zhuo Yang forced a smile but didn't respond.
Disciples from aristocratic families are all so annoying. They want to get information out of others, but they refuse to tell the truth themselves.
He says he wants to stay away from danger, but in reality he just doesn't trust people. I'm afraid he will secretly investigate on his own.
Zhuo Yang zipped up his sportswear and said, "I'm going to run two laps before going to the cafeteria. Do you want to join me?"
Yao Mao: "No, I'm going to eat."
The two separated. Yao Mao watched Zhuo Yang for a while, and when he saw that he was indeed just running, he walked towards the cafeteria.
He put his hands behind his head and hummed a little tune, looking very leisurely.
Zhuo Yang ran around the mountain twice and found Xu Wanhui in the cafeteria. He quickly put the envelope in the gap of Xu Wanhui's door. As soon as the door was opened, the envelope would fall out, and it would be difficult for her not to notice.
Just after delivering the letter and before he could leave, he heard footsteps. Zhuo Yang was so nervous that his heart was about to jump out of his chest, so he found a side door to hide.
The footsteps stopped before the corner, were silent for two seconds, and then suddenly turned back, the sound gradually fading away.
Zhuo Yang breathed a sigh of relief, seized the opportunity to leave quickly, and continued running on the mountain.
He was sweating, not because of being tired from running, but because of being scared just now.
Little did he know that as soon as he left Xu Wanhui's room, Yuan Xiushuo came out from the corner and pulled out the letter from the crack in the door.
The letter was sent from the underworld.
"At midnight, send Yuan Muyang and the formation diagram (you should understand this) to the Underworld's office on earth. Only Yuan Muyang will remain. Everyone else must retreat a thousand meters away. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences."
The words were quite harsh, even threatening.
There was no mention of providing red velvet grass or saving Yuan Muyang between the lines.
But Yuan Xiushuo knew that this was his only chance.
It was not known whether it was the backlash after the Soul Transformation Formation was destroyed, or whether Yuan Muyang was too deeply shocked after witnessing the crime scene, but from then on, Yuan Muyang's soul began to become unstable, and his physical condition became extremely poor. If he continued to delay, he might die.
Yuan Xiushuo was quite conflicted. After a long while, he sighed, stood up, opened the secret door behind the bookcase, and searched for the information he had been looking for for a long time.
On the other side, when Bai Ningning got up, she also received a "letter".
It was a stack of printed documents containing detailed addresses scattered across various cities.
Bai Ningning asked: "What is this?"
Chu Ze: "Oh, Xiao Xiao asked me to give it to you. It's his idle property. Every Monday is cleaning day, and the rest of the time it's vacant. No one will be in the house. Anyway, it's idle, so you can use it as a landing place for the portal to the underworld."
Bai Ningning: “…”
Rich and inhumane.
[Big Brother: I can’t help you, I can only provide a little help]
【Average and close to people】
[It's hard to refuse, right? After all, my brother didn't give it to her openly. He just provided Ningning with a shortcut.]
Bai Ningning covered her heart.
Oops.
My conscience aches a little.
