Bai Ningning sat in the living room on the first floor, staring at the Four Seasons Chronicle of the Hell Realm in front of her, hesitating whether to tear off another half page from its inner pages.
She knew that she could tear it at will, and once the other party burned it, the torn half would return to the Four Seasons Chronicle of the Hell Realm.
The Four Seasons Book opened and closed, and Bai Ningning bit her thumb with the pages to show her protest.
It has no teeth and is not very thick, so it doesn't hurt or itch when you bite it.
Bai Ningning let it fuss without pulling her hand back. She asked, "Could it be that it hurts you too?"
The Four Seasons Chronicles of the Hell Realm cannot speak, and can only show a crying face on the cover with a wronged look.
It doesn't hurt, but I do feel bad for the paper.
Although these papers will be returned sooner or later, if this woman tears the paper without restraint, it will become bald sooner or later!
The Four Seasons Chronicle of the Hell Realm tried to run away. It had no legs, so it slid quietly across the table and moved away from Bai Ningning without making a sound.
[I was crazy looking for Ningning to post in the early stage, but now I regret it! 】
【Shushu comes to Auntie's arms, Auntie hugs you】
【What kind of good person can Ningning be (dog head)】
Bai Ningning pressed it on the table: "What are you thinking about? Can you please stop tearing it up?"
After she finished speaking, she realized that her tone was a bit harsh. Why was she taking her anger out on the comments? The comments wouldn't stop because she was angry.
The Chronicle of the Four Seasons of the Hell Realm calmed down briefly, automatically turning to the first page, indicating that it was time to fill it with employees - its idea was simple, as long as it was filled, Bai Ningning would not tear it up casually.
Bai Ningning closed the book: "Don't think about it."
She had no one she wanted to live and die with.
The paper tearing function is more practical.
Bai Ningning sent a message to Yun Youshun, saying that she was planning to build an office in front of the Gu family's house, but there was no need to rush to draw the design.
The other party responded with an "OK".
Bai Ningning put away her phone, went over her plan in her mind, and after confirming it was correct, she took the token ring and invitation upstairs to Yuan Muyang and said, "You will attend this meeting on behalf of your father."
Yuan Muyang was writing a list of materials needed for the formation. It was a while before he looked up and stared at the invitation letter for a while.
The invitation was very simple, like a very ordinary little card with only the time and place written on it, and nothing else.
But the material of the cardboard is very special. It is a special silver-plated cardboard that is only circulated among a few major families.
Yuan Muyang did not ask where it came from, nor did he ask why it represented his father instead of Qingwei Mountain.
He put down his pen and asked seriously, "Can I not go?"
Bai Ningning: "I advise you to go."
Yuan Muyang fell silent.
After being rescued by the underworld, he has been listless, and his eyes are even duller at this moment.
“This is an opportunity.”
Bai Ningning spoke in a steady tone. There was no ups and downs in her speech throughout, like an emotionless reading machine.
She continued, "A chance to choose redemption or self-destruction. You can choose to continue living as an ordinary person, or you can choose to work as a ghost messenger to pay off your debts."
Yuan Muyang was touched after hearing this and looked up at her.
I don’t know if it was a coincidence of slow reaction or an intentional act of seeking death - Yuan Muyang looked up the moment he heard the word "self-destruction".
Bai Ningning's voice was as calm as a still pond, but she successfully bewitched Yuan Muyang.
Bai Ningning continued, "You were unconscious before because your heart was seeking death. To others, it was the red velvet that saved your life; but to you, living was also a torture."
Yuan Muyang was silent.
He admitted that she was right.
She looked at him and judged him without a trace of emotion, as if from a God's perspective.
For a moment, Yuan Muyang felt that he was already dead and was now in the Hall of Hell receiving the final words from the King of Hell.
There should be no such cold voice in the world. Even the mechanical female voice announcement on the bus is warmer than hers.
Bai Ningning knocked on the table to call his attention back, and said in a slightly more normal tone: "After this meeting, decide whether to die or change the world with me."
Yuan Muyang's eyes were empty, as if he was thinking, or simply in a daze.
Bai Ningning thought to herself, what a hassle! Could it be that my brain has crashed due to overload again?
"You have two days to think about it." She left this sentence and walked out of the room.
"Are you going to a meeting?"
Chu Yuyan asked this question after listening to her narration of what happened.
"Well, I'll need you to do me a favor then."
Bai Ningning said as she wrote the time and place on a piece of paper and handed it to him.
“Should I go there?”
Chu Yuyan glanced at the location, which was not in Beiyang City. If he wanted to leave, he had to prepare in advance.
Bai Ningning: "No, but I need you to send someone to keep an eye on Yuan Xiushuo. If he's not going to the meeting, forget it. But if he is going to the meeting, please help stop him and delay him."
Bai Ningning felt something was wrong after she said that, so she changed her words and said, "You don't need to keep an eye on him. Just send someone to intercept him on the road he must take."
The task of surveillance can be left to Zhuo Yang, or even Shu Lao can bring a few ghosts to watch at the door.
Bai Ningning thought about it for a moment, but still felt it was inappropriate, so she said, "If you delay, your identity will be exposed. Let me think of another way."
Chu Yuyan smiled: "Do you look down on me so much?"
Bai Ningning shook her head: "That's not what I meant."
She pulled up a map on her phone and said, "If he had discovered it earlier, there would be many ways to travel, such as by car or plane, and there are many routes. Except for those with the same starting and ending points, it would be inconvenient to stop people on other routes."
Qingwei Mountain is Yuan Xiushuo's territory no matter what, and it is too dangerous to cause trouble here.
The destination is the meeting place. Once Yuan Xiushuo arrives, there is no point in delaying.
Chu Yuyan half teased and half seriously: "Do you look down on the 100,000 ghost soldiers of the underworld?"
Bai Ningning: "...This is not funny."
【True Hell Joke】
[My second brother always jokes with the intention of destroying the world.]
[I always feel that the second brother's desire to survive is not very strong, in various senses]
Chu Yuyan smiled even more happily: "Don't worry, everything will develop in the direction you hope for."
Bai Ningning was silent for a while, thinking that even if she refused, he would most likely get involved, so it would be better to include him in the plan.
She held up her pinky finger and said, "Pin it. I allow you to participate in the plan, but only if you don't hurt yourself or expose yourself."
Chu Yuyan smiled and extended his hand to shake hands with her.
Bai Ningning said frankly that the plan could not be shared for the time being, and could only tell him the key time nodes: "My estimate of the time is not accurate. Yuan Xiushuo cannot show up before the meeting is over. So I will send you a message after the meeting."
Chu Yuyan: "What if I can help you improve your plan?"
Bai Ningning declined: "Don't worry, I have prepared several backup plans."
There are too many things in this plan that cannot be shared, and the less you know, the safer you are.
[It turns out that my second brother is the same as me. He doesn’t know the complete plan at this time. I feel mentally balanced.]
[I counted with my fingers...I won't pretend anymore, I'm a prophet (dog head)]
Bai Ningning was in a good mood and relaxed for a rare time, agreeing to let Chu Yuyan order takeout - but he didn't expect that the takeout ordered by the second young master was not cooked food but a chef's meal.
Bai Ningning: “…”
Chu Yuyan had a lot of twisted ideas: "Don't worry, the great ones are hiding in the city. I'll call another one tomorrow."
Bai Ningning had never thought that he was so picky before, and for a moment she even thought about moving away.
But I felt that he was quite pitiful, so I let it go.
There are many old, weak and sick people in this room, but she is just a little weak. At least she is still an ordinary person who can take care of herself.
Life...
For dinner that day, although we specially invited a chef to come to our house to cook, everyone still ate in different places.
Chu Ze and Chu Yuyan stared at each other, not understanding why she had to come and have dinner with him.
Chu Yuyan was stared at by him, and the meal tasted like chewing wax. He said, "If you want to leave, leave."
Chu Ze leaned lazily on the chair and stared at him: "That won't work. That girl said she will watch you finish eating."
The bowl in front of Chu Ze was empty, and he felt full without eating much.
I have been in a state of suspended animation for more than ten years. Now that I have resumed my diet, I cannot overeat. I can only eat small amounts of food that is easy to digest.
Chu Yuyan put down his chopsticks: "You're done eating, you can leave now."
Chu Ze: "You should eat more. It's not good to waste food. The main thing is that she insisted that I wash the dishes. It's very troublesome to deal with them."
Chu Yuyan looked at him with a smile, a slightly sarcastic expression on his face, and his meaning was very straightforward: What does it have to do with me if I ask you to wash the dishes?
Chu Ze received the signal and continued lazily, "I also told you that if there's a lot left, put it in the refrigerator and save it for your lunch tomorrow."
This is Chu Yuyan's weakness. These things don't taste good after being heated.
Chu Ze's tone was filled with gloating as he continued, "If there's little left, I'll give it to you as breakfast."
Chu Yuyan picked up the chopsticks silently: "Don't look at me, go watch TV."
Chu Ze sighed: "Alas, I am old and don't have much time left. My son despises me. Look at my son. He is so cruel——"
Chu Yuyan: “…”
[The sarcasm is engraved in our genes]
[A big Yin-Yang monster meets a small Yin-Yang monster (commendation)]
Magic defeats magic
Bai Ningning watched the barrage broadcast and suddenly laughed.
Yuan Muyang was confused: "Is there something happy?"
Bai Ningning half-truthed and half-seriously lied to him: "I'm so happy to be able to eat such delicious food."
Yuan Muyang lowered his head and continued to eat. He could no longer tell whether the taste was good or bad. He was eating just to stay alive.
After finishing the meal, Bai Ningning went out to throw away the garbage and said to Yuan Muyang: "You can take a walk on this floor, but don't leave the floor. Sorry, I don't want to lock you up, but it's risky to go out."
"It's okay, I'm in the room." Yuan Muyang was very aware of being a prisoner and did not leave the room at all.
Bai Ningning went downstairs and caught the cook who shouldn't be here - logically he left after cooking, and it was Bai Ningning who watched him leave from the window.
And this chef who should have left was actually sitting at the dining table, eating?
Bai Ningning raised an eyebrow: "What's going on?"
Chu Ze was about to complain when he received a glare from Chu Yuyan.
Chu Yuyan smiled and said, "He is testing the food and preparing for the next time."
The chef nodded in shame, "Yes, that's exactly what happened."
He was about to return to the hotel when he was called back by the Second Young Master Chu, who asked him to try the dishes he had cooked.
The chef thought that Master Chu was dissatisfied with something, but Master Chu asked him to finish the meal without leaving any, and gave him a considerable tip.
——Even so, this action still scared him a lot.
"Try what you made."
No matter what tone this sentence is said in, it is quite sarcastic. Coupled with the half-smile on the face of the second young master Chu, it is extremely sarcastic.
He won't lose his job, will he?
Otherwise, I should ask my boss for a long vacation today and go back to study for a while. I can't ruin our reputation.
The chef finished the meal cautiously and treading on thin ice, and took the initiative to clean up the restaurant and take away all the garbage in the room.
Chu Ze looked at the clean room and stretched: "Oh, what a pity, there are no dishes to wash."
Chu Yuyan: "It's a pity indeed."
Bai Ningning was well aware of their little tricks, but decided to let them go and said, "I'm not going to the underworld today. Good night."
"?"
Chu Ze was stunned: "Why are you absent from work again?"
Bai Ningning just waved her hand and answered him with a yawn.
The next morning, the Gu family discovered that a large area at the gate had been circled with white lines, and a small wooden sign was erected at the gate.
The Underworld's Human Office
Construction land
The head of the Gu family immediately ordered people to remove the wooden sign, pretend that nothing had happened, and loosen the soil at the door - the white line was thus hidden, leaving no trace.
Another night passed, and the same wooden sign appeared at the door again.
But the scope of the white line has obviously expanded again.
The head of the Gu family was extremely angry. Just like the day before, he pulled out the wooden sign, turned over the soil again, and planned to stand guard at the door to see who dared to act rashly.
He and several disciples stayed there all night.
Just when they thought nothing had happened and were about to spend Christmas Eve, the wall suddenly collapsed.
As luck would have it, the area covered by the collapsed wall happened to be larger than the area circled by the underworld yesterday.
The elite disciples suddenly felt horrified.
Someone advised the head of the family: "Why don't you stop going against the underworld?"
It’s not for any other reason, it’s just that I can’t beat him.
There was no sound, no ghostly presence, and no trace of the golden smell that would accompany the appearance of a ghost messenger.
They didn't even notice any human or non-human presence.
There wasn't even a mosquito, but the wall collapsed, collapsed in front of them.
Bai Ningning was still sleeping soundly at this moment. She didn't wake up until after eight o'clock in the morning. She washed up lazily and went downstairs to have breakfast.
Chu Yuyan received the news before five o'clock. He heard that the outer wall of the Gu family had collapsed, and naturally he also knew about the wooden sign at the door.
Chu Yuyan: "I didn't expect you to wake up so early. Breakfast is being prepared. Please wait a moment."
Bai Ningning only then realized that there was another person at home. She couldn't understand why: "Do we need to invite the cook to our house for breakfast?"
Chu Yuyan smiled innocently: "He came here on his own this morning, insisting that he didn't perform well yesterday, so he wanted to show us his skills again today."
The chef's eyes were dark blue, and he nodded firmly. "Yes, I was so anxious that I couldn't sleep all night. If you don't mind, I'll take care of today's lunch and dinner. I will make a feast that will satisfy you all."
Bai Ningning: “…”
She looked at Chu Yuyan: Do you think I believe it?
Chu Yuyan raised his hands innocently: "It really wasn't me this time."
Maybe he gave too much money yesterday, which made the chef feel guilty.
But he would never tell Bai Ningning this.
Bai Ningning held her forehead and said to the chef, "Lunch is fine, but dinner is optional. We have something to do at home tonight."
"Okay! Thank you, Miss, for giving me this opportunity!" The chef was full of confidence, and even had some gratitude in his tone.
Bai Ningning looked at Chu Yuyan speechlessly: Look at you, why are you trying to scare the chef?
Chu Yuyan motioned Bai Ningning to come closer and asked quietly, "Did you do that thing last night... or this morning?"
Bai Ningning immediately distanced herself from the matter: "I didn't leave my room all day. And I slept very soundly last night. Look, I don't have any dark circles under my eyes."
Did these two siblings reconcile their statements? Their expressions were exactly the same when they felt guilty.
[This is hilarious! My second brother only tricked a cook into coming, but Ning Ning managed to bring down an entire exterior wall!]
[How is his expression the same? My second brother clearly only has one expression, and he always smiles like this.]
[It depends on the subtle expressions. When two people are feeling guilty, the ends of their eyebrows will be raised, and they will use their momentum to maintain their presence.]
Bai Ningning: “…”
Is it so obvious?
She touched her eyebrows.
Did it move?
Bai Ningning coughed lightly and said, "If so many of them hadn't used their spiritual power to put pressure on the wall, the wall wouldn't have collapsed."
When she found that the Gu family was quite uncooperative, she started to tamper with their wall.
But as long as there is no [large] amount of spiritual power [simultaneously] and [for a long time] exerting pressure on the outer wall, the wall will be quite safe - after all, the outer walls of such a large family are just decorations, and even if a pile of grass is placed there, no villains will dare to approach.
But if they want to send a large number of people to guard the night and ambush someone, then the Gu family can only blame themselves for being unlucky.
The news that the outer wall of the Gu family had collapsed quickly spread throughout the entire metaphysical world. It was big news.
The head of the Gu family looked at the ruins and fell into deep thought. After a long time, he decided not to touch it and use the other side as the main entrance. There was more than one exit anyway.
That night, all the members of the Gu family attended the meeting with heavy panda eyes, without exception, and all looked worried.
When others saw this, they wanted to laugh but didn't dare, and it was very difficult for them to hold it back.
Looking at a table full of senior people, I could only turn my attention to the young people to change the subject.
The Yuan family's representative was the only young person. The Wei family members teased Yuan Muyang, "Is the Yuan family planning to change their head so soon? They're only sending a young man along, without even a reliable senior to keep the peace?"
"Hmm..." Yuan Muyang replied calmly, shaking his head, "Not for now."
The other party felt bored and turned his gaze to the person behind Yuan Muyang, asking, "Weren't the Shiyu sisters the ones who were more respected before? Who is this little girl?"
Bai Ningning smiled after getting dressed up: "Just an unimportant young man."
[Just a young man who has already made the old man of the Gu family afraid]
[Listen to my advice, don’t talk too much, otherwise other people’s walls will collapse and your house will collapse too]
