The only noteworthy thing is that a little person suddenly appeared next to the rock, looking like he hadn't woken up yet.
"Who is speaking?" The little man opened his mouth to speak, but the voice came from between heaven and earth.
Song Suian was shocked and quickly knelt down. After carefully choosing his words, he said in a refined manner, "No offense intended. I am Song Suian, and I only want to know where this place is and how I got here?"
"Song Suian, hahaha, you're so strange! Hello, little friend, I'm Chen Tuan!"
The little man laughed and sat up from the rock, instantly becoming the same size as Song Suian.
This startled Song Suian again. Although he was a ghost who had been to hell, he had never seen such power. Not an ordinary person? A god?
“I can answer your question, but I want you—well, to exchange something with me.” Chen Tuan was very good-natured, but he kept yawning as he spoke, still looking like he hadn’t woken up properly.
"Thank you, Immortal." Song Suian nodded quickly.
"This is 'Half Step More,' a gap in time and space, where I take my afternoon nap... I'm already asleep... Huh? Let me calculate."
Chen Tuan seemed a little confused, but he snapped back to reality after a quick calculation. "Oh! I've been asleep for fifty million years, hahaha. But time here is a mess, and this number is also a mess. Neither of them is accurate."
"Any other questions?" Chen Tuan asked Song Suian.
Song Sui'an listened to Chen Tuan's words, which were incoherent and seemed like the ramblings of an ordinary old man, but the magical powers he displayed made him have no choice but to believe him.
At this point, he dared not ask any further questions, fearing the price would be too high. So he asked, "Immortal, what do you want from me? There is someone I wish to see, and I must go see her. I beg you to grant my request. As for everything else I have, you may take it all."
Chen Tuan laughed again after hearing this: "Little friend, I didn't blame you for disturbing my sleep. I just wanted to make a deal with you, why are you so worried? I'm an old man and I don't need anything, I just want your red clothes to use as bedding so I can sleep. I won't take advantage of you. If you agree, leave the clothes behind, and I'll send you to the mortal world and give you a magic artifact as well."
"If you don't agree, I won't do anything to you. You've already been detained in the underworld once; your name isn't in the Book of Life and Death. Staying here will only mean keeping me company during my afternoon nap, then being forgotten by time and turning into a stone, hahaha, I doubt you'd want that. I'll send you back to the mortal realm; that's a good deal, isn't it? But this robe of yours will be mine. It's all the resentment you can't process; taking it is useless, so I might as well let this old man get a good night's sleep, hahahahaha."
The man laughed and, without waiting for Song Suian's reply, pulled off Song Suian's clothes and wrapped them around himself.
Before I could even lie down, I heard his steady breathing coming from between heaven and earth, and then disappearing into the world.
Song Suian regained consciousness and found himself in the Song family's small manor. With his back to him was himself at age seven.
He was engrossed in doing his homework.
Song Sui'an: "..."
Time in the underworld is hard to remember. He thought he had lived for hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years, but now that he has returned, it turns out that only fifteen years have passed.

“Mr. Long, could you please turn this old man back on and zoom in? He looks familiar to me.” Wu Yue stared intently, and Meng Chen’s thoughts gradually became clear.
"cannot."
Long Jingyuan shook his head.
Yan Chiyu found it amusing, "You think this is watching a movie? With a replay?"
