Chapter 14 Even ghosts have such needs?



Just then, Qin Yunie handed over two boxed lunches. Her almond-shaped eyes were slightly curved as she smiled, but they were exceptionally bright. Her tone contained a hint of apology, "I was blind to the two ghost messengers earlier. These two boxed lunches are my apology. Please accept them."

The enticing aroma almost instantly won over Qin Yunie.

This would be impossible under normal circumstances. After all, many ghosts would try to bribe him with incense to make him more lenient and turn a blind eye to some things. However, the rules of the underworld are strict and bribery is absolutely forbidden.

But in that instant when the food entered his mouth, Ma Mian felt a surge of emotion. He was willing to let Seventh Master and Eighth Master beat him up if he could have such a boxed meal every day.

Ox-Head initially maintained some of the reserve expected of a ghost messenger, but after taking a bite, he changed his mind.

This lunchbox is fucking delicious!

Not only does it smell delicious, but it also tastes amazing.

Suddenly, Ma Mian thought of Meng Po's soup, which had been brewing for hundreds of years.

The horse-faced man, who had suffered greatly from this, sighed and muttered to the ox-headed man, "We should really let Meng Po try it. What kind of rubbish does she brew every day?"

Surprisingly, the bull-headed creature nodded in agreement.

As ghost messengers, and with so many ghosts watching over them, Ox-Head and Horse-Face still gave Qin Yune the ghost money, but asked him to add their contact information so he could call them if he needed anything in the future.

Only then did he happily carry Xie Bi'an and Fan Wujiu's lunchboxes back home.

The judge, seeing Ox-Head and Horse-Face carrying two items in high spirits, asked, "What good news is it? Why are you laughing so happily?"

"Didn't a pretty young woman come to our underworld to sell boxed lunches? Seventh Master and Eighth Master had official business to attend to, so they asked us to pick up the boxed lunches they had ordered. We just heard that Seventh Master and Eighth Master are back." Ox-Head and Horse-Face said, waving the boxed lunches in their hands. "Look, we're just about to deliver them. I must say, her cooking is really delicious. If the judge is interested, he can buy some and try it. I guarantee you'll want to eat it again after just one bite."

The judge recalled the question King Yama had asked the Black and White Impermanence last time, and their answer, their dark, serious faces filled with curiosity: "Is it really that delicious? How delicious can a boxed lunch be?"

Niu Tou rarely said, "You'll know once you try it."

The judge frowned, wondering why everyone kept saying the same thing.

After selling his boxed lunches, Qin Yunie happily went to the bank to deposit the ghost money. Today's income was more than 20,000 RMB. Setting up a stall in the underworld is so awesome!

What she told Qin Hao yesterday was absolutely true. With her current daily income, in their small town, unless she buys something big, she might not be able to spend it all in a month, let alone half a year.

With her current income, she would be considered a high-income earner anywhere.

There's really no need to go back to the Qin family and have to put up with their attitude.

After depositing the money, Qin Yunie took a stroll around the underworld. She had been there so many times, but she had never properly explored it before.

The streets here are different from modern ones; they aren't as wide.

The nearest shop to her was like a general store, filled with all sorts of things, including various household items.

What shocked her most was that she actually saw a shop in the underworld that vaguely resembled adult entertainment, and it contained some indescribable products.

Cough cough cough... I never thought ghosts would have such needs?

Qin Yunie silently withdrew her gaze, quickly passed by the shop, and went to the next one. Next to it was a clothing store with all kinds of clothes, even the clothes worn inside.

To Qin Yune's surprise, the underworld had opened a courier service called "Sufeng," apparently to pick up items burned in the mortal world.

As Qin Yunie walked deeper into the area, she came across a shop without a sign, but the various instruments inside reminded her of what the ghosts had mentioned earlier. Could this be the plastic surgery clinic?

Sure enough, wherever there is demand, there will be people doing all sorts of business.

Qin Yunie wandered around some more and found that most of the shops that existed in the mortal world also existed in the underworld, but there was no food.

Ghosts don't need to eat, they only need incense.

The underworld is divided into several areas, but Qin Yune can only see the residential area, the work area, and the living area. The other side is a place she cannot set foot in because it is strictly controlled and guarded by ghost messengers. If a living person accidentally sets foot there, they will not be able to return to the human world.

Qin Yunie encountered many ghosts on her journey. Upon discovering that she was a living person, they all curiously sized her up. Some ghosts who had bought her boxed lunches would even greet her when they saw her.

For a time, it became a 'unique' sight in the underworld.

They probably never expected that there would be living people wandering around in the underworld; they really aren't afraid of death.

Qin Yunie took a special look at the houses in the underworld.

Most of the houses here are two-story buildings, with a maximum of six stories, but there are also a few villas and mansions. This must be where the rich live.

Sure enough, there are rich people everywhere.

What shocked her was that most people here lived in a room with two beds, and dozens of ghosts lived in one room.

I heard that the rent here is cheap, only twenty ghost coins a night. Most ghosts in the underworld rent this kind of house, so it's the most common type of house.

They simply maintain a simple life, save up enough ghost money, and wait for the opportunity to be reincarnated.

After reading this, Qin Yunie became even more determined to earn more money, otherwise, when she died and went to the underworld, she would have to live in a room with so many ghosts, which was suffocating just thinking about it!

She has such a great advantage now, she must make the most of it.

Thinking of this, Qin Yunie felt that she couldn't just wait for the Black and White Impermanence's answer; she had to take the initiative!

Although the Great Emperor of the Eastern Peak is also very powerful, it seems that Yan Wenjing is in charge of the Underworld.

Just thinking about Yan Wenjing's face made Qin Yune's cheeks burn.

But considering his venomous tongue, well, the cooling-down was a success.

When Xie Bi'an and Fan Wujiu arrived, they saw Qin Yunie's cheeks flushed one moment and her expression of indifference the next.

Fan Wujiu teased, "Are you thinking about someone?"

Upon hearing the voices, Qin Yune exclaimed in delight, "Brother Fan, Brother Xie, aren't you busy? How come you have time to come over at this time?"

Suddenly, as if remembering something, she bent down from under the stall and pulled out a bag of incense. "This is incense I specially brought from the temple for you to offer. I was busy and forgot about it. Luckily you came."

"We've brought you good news, haven't we?" Fan Wujiu said, lighting incense and taking a deep breath.

This must be the incense from the City God Temple; it's different from regular incense.

However, the City God Temple is a bit far from Qin Yunie's home. It seems that he went there to buy incense that day, which is why he was haunted by the fleeing evil spirit.

Last time, King Yama said that as long as Qin Yune continued to set up a stall in the underworld, she could buy a house there. Since she came to set up a stall today, it means she has passed King Yama's test, which means she can buy a house in the underworld.
