Geng Yiyi was left alone in the room, completely unable to concentrate on her work.
Ever since she learned that Bai Ningning was going to the lair of the Ghost Alliance to scout the area, Geng Yiyi had been feeling uneasy and had a bad feeling, so she was unusually talkative, and she didn't know if Bai Ningning listened to her or not.
Why hasn't Bai Ningning come back yet? Could she be trapped by those ghosts?
Although there aren't many high-level evil spirits guarding their lair, it would still be very dangerous if a real fight broke out.
Why hasn't Bai Ningning summoned me for help yet? Although she can't gain the upper hand in a fight with a ghost, she's not completely powerless.
The more Geng Yiyi thought about it, the more anxious she became. She wanted to take a taxi to the Ghost Alliance to check out the situation.
But she couldn't get too close, because if she did, the ghosts would definitely notice.
Geng Yiyi was so nervous that she paced back and forth in the room, hoping to create the illusion that she was also there to check out the scene by counting her steps.
"According to the time it takes to go there and back, if nothing unexpected happens, he should be back by now..."
Geng Yiyi talked to herself.
The next second, there was a knock on the door. Her eyes suddenly lit up and she happily rushed over to open the door.
It turned out that it was Chu Xisen outside the door.
Geng Yiyi was so dejected that she didn't even bother to curse.
Chu Xisen was slightly startled, and adjusted his sunglasses to hide his emotions, and asked: "What's with that expression?"
Geng Yiyi slammed the door shut: "Get out!"
Chu Xisen was caught off guard and nearly had his nose pinched. He slammed the door angrily, "What are you doing?! You've been banging your head in the room for ages. The neighbors can hear it! It's so noisy!"
"Get out! Shut up! Leave it alone!"
Chu Xisen didn't understand what she was upset about and was about to curse back when he noticed some movement in the elevator.
Dancheng is in the off-season for tourism, and there are only three of them living on this floor. When they heard the elevator door opening, it was probably Ningning coming back.
He was a magnanimous man and didn't bother with Geng Yiyi, walking towards the elevator.
Unexpectedly, before he even got close, he smelled a very strong smell of ghosts.
Chu Xisen cleverly hid at the corner and observed. When he saw that it was indeed Bai Ningning who came out, he revealed himself and said, "You smell like a ghost again..."
Bai Ningning couldn't smell it, and fearing it would affect ordinary people, she asked, "Do we need to put some amulets on this hotel?"
Chu Xisen leaned close to her ear and whispered, "I've already helped put it on. After all, the evil spirit has moved in, so I have to put it on."
At this time, Geng Yiyi in the room waited for a while but didn't hear Chu Xisen's angry voice, so she couldn't help but feel a little confused - according to his personality, he would not give up until he argued with her for three hundred rounds.
Could something have happened?
She quietly opened the door, revealing only one eye to observe, but saw Chu Xisen lowering his head and whispering to Bai Ningning, and his eyes drifted towards her room from time to time.
Obviously, he was saying bad things about her to Bai Ningning again.
Geng Yiyi was so angry that she wanted to smash his head in. "All you do is complain! Didn't they just lock you up? What's there to complain about?"
Bai Ningning burst out laughing: "He didn't complain, but you blew yourself up."
Geng Yiyi: “…”
She knew she was in the wrong, but still glared at Chu Xisen in dissatisfaction.
Chu Xisen hid behind Bai Ningning and made a face at her: "Omitted."
Bai Ningning explained: "I just went to the Underworld's office on earth. Maybe I have a lot of ghost energy."
Chu Xisen was stunned, and Geng Yiyi was also surprised: "There is such a place?"
Bai Ningning responded casually: "Today."
Geng Yiyi: “?”
Bai Ningning said nonchalantly as she walked into the room, "I got it ready-made from the Ghost Alliance."
Geng Yiyi was dumbfounded and remained stunned for a long time: "Aren't you going to scout the place?"
Bai Ningning looked quite helpless: "I originally went there to scout the place, but they were too enthusiastic and insisted on joining the underworld, so I had no choice but to help them with the formalities."
After she finished speaking, she walked into the room and waved: "I'll take a break and have dinner with you later."
Chu Xisen happily responded yes and returned to his room.
Only Geng Yiyi was left disheveled in the wind.
Geng Yiyi: “…”
That's not right, it's impossible. How could those guys from the Ghost Alliance voluntarily join the underworld?
They had fought with the ghost officers several times, but the ghost officers never got the upper hand and returned empty-handed several times, so they designated this area as a no-man's land.
Recruitment?
Who's out of his mind?
The ghost catcher from the fourth district received instructions from the acting King of Hell and brought a team of ghost catchers to the unfinished building in Dancheng. When he saw that they were evil ghosts from the Ghost Alliance, he immediately wanted to quit.
Unexpectedly, the old tree came forward with a fierce tone and a ferocious expression: "Sir, are you here to handle the recruitment and recruitment? I will cooperate with you."
Seeing his unhappy expression, the ghost became tough and asked, "What are you doing now?"
Lord Chu said that if the evil ghosts acted ferociously, they, as ghost officials, had to act even more ferociously. Even if they couldn't defeat them, they couldn't lose in terms of momentum.
The old tree stared at him with resentment, his eyes seemed to be filled with poison, and he revealed a sinister smile.
It would be best if we could scare these ghost officials away.
He couldn't resist the power of Bai Ningning's words with words, so couldn't he use some tricks?
However, he misjudged the ghost's pattern of action. The more dangerous he appeared, the less likely the ghost would retreat - the more powerful the ghost, the more silent it was. Those who often used words and appearance to intimidate the enemy were weak.
None of those who pass the selection to become a ghost catcher are timid.
The ghost captain raised his lips and strode in: "Lead the way, I want to see what you are up to."
Before they came, they were all prepared for a fierce battle.
In the underworld, without any warning, a team would suddenly be assembled to go to the human world to carry out missions, most of which were very dangerous missions.
Moreover, there have been unrests in the human world recently, and large numbers of evil spirits gather from time to time. Before they came, they also thought it was this kind of mission.
But now, the captain of the ghost squad looked at the colorful evil ghosts in front of him, neatly lined up in two teams.
Were the ghosts in the Ghost Alliance ever so easy to talk to?
The ghost squad consists of five people including the captain.
The team leader paused for two seconds and said, "Divide into four teams according to their levels, and arrange them in order of strength, with the little devils given priority."
The old tree instructed the four guardians behind him to make the arrangements. They acted very efficiently and soon they were neatly divided into four rows, arranged according to the depth of their colors, which looked much more pleasing to the eye.
The team leader asked the ghost officials to register and guide them, while he would observe from the side. If these ghosts had any bad intentions and made any unusual movements, don't blame him for being rude.
Unfortunately, he was disappointed. All the ghosts were extradited to the underworld, leaving only the old man and his four guardians, but he still did not see any unusual movement.
It's a pity that he has been on guard for so long.
The team leader felt an inexplicable irritation in his heart. He looked at the old tree and said, "It's your turn."
The smile on Shu Lao's face was about to fade, but he still deliberately angered the other party: "I am not under your jurisdiction."
The team leader stepped forward and confronted him: "All ghosts are under the jurisdiction of the ghost officer."
The old tree didn't retreat at all, his smile undimmed, but he spoke through gritted teeth, "What a pity! I'm under the jurisdiction of the King of Hell. She said she wants to establish a Hell office in the human world. I'm the supervisor, and these are my four direct subordinates. Maybe we can be colleagues in the future. I appreciate your guidance."
The team leader sensed that he indeed had the aura of the Little King of Hell, but he was not prepared to get along with him. He raised his hand and said, "Call it a day."
It can be said that they parted on bad terms.
The old tree knew that he had betrayed the Ghost Alliance. Even if he was reluctant, he could no longer have anything to do with the Ghost Alliance.
He quickly left Dancheng with his four subordinates.
That night, Bai Ningning took Shu Lao to the Hall of Yama in the underworld and asked him to report to Chu Ze.
Chu Ze was so happy to see Bai Ningning: "You are so efficient. The Ghost Alliance was a tough nut to crack for me, but you wiped out their lair with ease."
Bai Ningning glanced at the old tree and said, "No, they joined the Underworld voluntarily. And they expressed their admiration for the Underworld from the moment they met. If you don't believe me, ask him."
The corner of the old tree's eye twitched. How could that be called voluntary?!
Is that admiration for the underworld? That's admiration for the Ghost King!
Fortunately, after the Ghost King showed up, everyone knew that "recruiting" was the Ghost King's intention, so they didn't make things too difficult for him.
But for him, it would be better to make things difficult for him and have more ghosts make things difficult for him. He could also take the opportunity to let some of them go and leave some combat power for the Ghost Alliance.
The old man gnashed his teeth in anger, but he still had to answer: "Yes, of my own accord."
Redefining Voluntariness
[The old tree was almost going crazy, and his face was full of words: I didn't volunteer to be a traitor!]
[No matter how unwilling you are, don't you still have to do what Ningning says? ]
【And it was done very well】
【Is your body too honest? 】
If Old Shu saw these comments, he would probably be furious.
The old tree couldn't see and was staring at Chu Ze.
As a veteran ghost in the Ghost Alliance, Shu Lao naturally dislikes the underworld and its staff, especially the acting King of Hell.
Chu Ze was used to it and laughed without much concern.
Bai Ningning pulled out a lazy sofa from the Hell Realm Seasons Chronicle and said, "While you guys chat, I'll bring some warmth to the Hell King's Palace."
Chu Ze was dumbfounded. It was the first time he saw someone misusing a treasure like this.
Bai Ningning stuffed all the things she wanted to take to the underworld into the Four Seasons Book in advance. At first, the Four Seasons Book refused to accept them, but under Bai Ningning's provocation of "what use do I have for you", the book reluctantly became a porter.
Even if it was not willing, Bai Ningning was ready to ask the old tree ghost and other ghosts to help move it.
If all else fails, there's Qinghuai.
Seeing Shu Lao standing there stupidly, Bai Ningning assigned him a task: "You guys are idle anyway, so move all the furniture out of the Four Seasons Collection. Put the tables and chairs here, and the lazy sofas over there. Separate the office area from the rest area."
Old Tree: “…”
Who's idle?
Isn't this a confrontation with Chu Ze? But the other party didn't even look at him.
The old tree did the task reluctantly.
Bai Ningning waved to Ma Juan, her mother, and her daughter: "Come, see if it's comfortable to sit on. If not, buy a new one."
Ever since Bai Ningning appeared, they had been distracted from their work and had been staring at Bai Ningning. When their names were called, they were overjoyed and almost teleported to Bai Ningning.
Bai Ningning was caught off guard by three ghosts and subconsciously took a step back: "...I went to try to sit on the chair, not here."
[What to do if the female ghost is too enthusiastic? Click to see XXXX]
[The Domineering Female Ghost Falls in Love with Me]
【Ghost】
【The story I have to tell with the three female ghosts】
Bai Ningning: “…”
The Hall of Yama is not very big to begin with, and it was empty and deserted before. Now that it has been divided into several areas, it has quickly become warm and has a sense of life.
Chu Ze looked at these beautifully designed furniture and felt a little distressed for a moment. He asked, "Don't you know that the King of Hell can make his own?"
Bai Ningning said confidently: "I can't."
And could the things she made be so beautiful? Could they have such a sense of design? That was absolutely impossible.
What's more, she finds it troublesome.
Chu Ze looked at the pile of new furniture with a hint of disdain: "What a waste! It looks expensive. Are you rich?"
Bai Ningning: "No, it was donated by Chu Xisen."
Chu Ze was slightly stunned: "Who?"
Bai Ningning was speechless for a few seconds, then whispered, "...Maybe it's your youngest son?"
Chu Ze: "Then you have to call him brother?"
How can he remember all the names? There are so many ghosts in the underworld, and he has to see so many names every day.
Bai Ningning said coldly: "No, I'm an orphan."
She did not have any emotional fluctuations, neither accepting nor resisting, no hatred nor expectation, she just rationally refused to recognize her relatives.
Chu Ze had no experience in taking care of children, and he was just saying it casually, so it didn't matter if he was rejected.
He sat cross-legged in front of the stone table, propping his chin on one hand, and asked, "Where's my gift? They all have gifts, where's mine?"
Bai Ningning pointed at the old tree and said, "Is the Underworld's office on earth considered a great gift?"
The old tree curled his lips. He did all the dirty work, but in the end the credit was hers. Is this fair?
Ma Juan and Cheng Xiu suddenly came in front of Bai Ningning. They didn't say anything, but actively used their eyes to convey their upward and enterprising spirit to Bai Ningning - if they needed help, they could call them at any time!
Bai Ningning was immediately happy and said, "You guys should finish your work in the underworld first. Don't worry, I won't forget you."
They seemed unsatisfied and still stood in front of Bai Ningning, staring at her eagerly.
Chu Ze felt sad because these people and ghosts were treated differently.
The little daughter forgot about him when she bought a present, and the ghosts never seemed to show him any attention.
Chu Ze drooped his brows and weakly reminded them, "They want to enter the Four Seasons Chart of the Hell Realm."
Bai Ningning: "Don't worry, let me try first to see if there are any side effects."
Tree Elder: “?”
You are so arrogant, why are you using me as an experiment?
Chu Ze asked dully, "Didn't I tell you? The side effect is that you can't reincarnate, and they're permanently bound to you. If you die, they'll die too, because the Hell Realm Seasonal Chart will automatically clear."
Bai Ningning: "You really didn't tell me."
Tree Elder: “?”
Although he had never intended to reincarnate, he had lived on the edge of a knife and was worried about dying at any moment.
But not wanting to do it and being completely unable to do it are two different things.
Bai Ningning felt no guilt at all. She looked at the old tree and asked a soul-searching question: "How many people have you killed? How many ghosts have you killed? Because of your—"
She paused for a moment, her tone becoming playful as she said the word, "Wrong decision? How many people or ghosts have been killed indirectly by it?"
The old tree remained silent.
He is an evil ghost with many ghosts under his command. As he can become the decision-maker of the Ghost Alliance, his hands cannot be clean.
Although he was forced to become a subordinate of the new King of Hell Bai Ningning, this could not wash away his past.
He came to atone for his sins.
At least that's what Bai Ningning meant just now.
After knocking on the old tree, Bai Ningning looked at Chu Ze and asked, "Are there any other side effects?"
Chu Ze: "No. Simply put, they are all dependent on you. But to put it bluntly, you yourself bear the fate of many people. Once you die, the underworld will quickly return to the dilapidated state you first saw."
Bai Ningning returned to the human world with a heavy heart. When she opened her eyes, she saw Qinghuai staring at her.
Bai Ningning: “?”
She swallowed lightly and asked cautiously, "What's wrong?"
Qing Huai is a very qualified tool ghost. He is very useful when he is needed, and can completely hide his presence when he is not needed.
Bai Ningning sometimes suspected that he was a killer in his previous life.
There was a hint of accusation in Qing Huai's eyes, and his voice sounded a little aggrieved: "You won't take me with you."
Bai Ningning: “……?”
