Chapter 189 Can’t you wait to die?
"I don't know how well I've practiced, let's try it now."
After Jin Congcong finished speaking, he began to stomp his feet, muttering as he stomped: "Let me go to the underworld, let me go to the underworld, I want to go to the underworld to chat with the kind ghosts."
"Let me down, let me down quickly, let me go to the underworld quickly!"
Everyone: ...
Bu Ruo coughed awkwardly: "Um... ignore him, he's mentally ill."
After Concubine Shun finished crying, she and Cui Hang knelt down in front of Bu Ruo and Xiao Yulan. "Thank you, Your Majesty and Princess, for your help. I am already very grateful that I can see Ning'er again. If there is an afterlife, I would like to work like a slave to repay you, Your Majesty and Princess."
"It's a pity that I died early and couldn't help the prince seize the throne, but my two younger brothers are people who can distinguish right from wrong. With the prince's character and talents, they will definitely support the prince to sit on that throne."
Concubine Shun, whose maiden name was Zong Ning.
Bu Ruo looked at him with a smile: "We don't need you to work like a slave in the next life. Based on your merits, this princess will help you resurrect. However, your body will definitely be much worse than before, and your life span will only be about thirty years. Are you willing?"
Cui Hang's eyes were filled with shock. "Is what the princess said true? But I've been dead for twenty years and have long since turned into a pile of bones. How can I come back to life? If my survival means others must die, then... I'd rather not live. I can't do something like occupying someone else's body."
Bu Ruo smiled and said, "I'm not asking you to use someone else's body to revive, but your own. After your death, Concubine Shun sealed your body in an ice coffin and put preservative powder inside."
"You have to thank Concubine Shun, otherwise even I can't bring you back to life, and you will have to reincarnate."
Bu Ruo stretched out his hand and conjured up a golden flower, placing Cui Hang's soul into the pistil. Then he turned the flower path into a ring and wrapped it around Concubine Shun's finger. After thinking for a while, he took out three soul-calming fruits.
"When you return to the sealed land, open the ice coffin and place this flower between his eyebrows. The flower will help his soul return to its place."
"And these fruits. After his soul returns to its place, you can blend these three fruits into juice and feed him the juice. It doesn't matter if he can drink it or not, as long as he can put it in his mouth. Rub the remaining pulp on his wounds. They will heal within three days. After his soul returns to its place, he will wake up in about seven days."
Bu Ruo personally escorted the person to the gate of the mansion. On the way, seeing Concubine Shun's hesitant look, he sighed and said, "Don't think about Xiao Haoyan anymore. There's really nothing we can do."
"The reason Cui Hang is still alive is, firstly, because you protected his body well, and secondly, because he has done great deeds defending the border and protecting the people for many years. Therefore, I, the princess, can use his merits to help him buy a chance for rebirth."
"But Xiao Haoyan can't. Apart from enjoying beautiful women and teasing cats and dogs all day long, he has done nothing of any substantial help to the people or the country. He also has no merits at all, so... I'm sorry, he really only has two years to live."
"Actually, after this matter reaches the fiefdom, you can tell him that how he spends the remaining two years is his own choice. Everyone has their own destiny, so just be open-minded."
"Hey...since you're so sad, I'll tell you one more thing. You and Cui Hang will have a child in the future, a daughter. As long as you do more good deeds for the rest of your life, Cui Hang might be able to live a few more years, and Xiao Haoyan will be able to be reborn into a good family soon."
Watching Concubine Shun get on the carriage, Bu Ruo gave her final words of advice: "You will no longer be Concubine Shun from now on. Live your life well and keep your kind heart. Everything will be rewarded."
Concubine Shun sat in the carriage and looked at Prince Zhan's Mansion which was getting farther and farther away, with a firm heart in her heart: Prince, Princess, one day, I Zong Ning will definitely repay your great kindness.
When Bu Ruo was about to go back and passed by the front hall, he saw Cen Nan and the others standing there, laughing secretly...
"Why don't you go back? Where's the prince?"
Cen Nan straightened his face and said, "Princess, the prince has gone to the study and asked me to tell you to go back and rest first."
"What about Cen Bei and Qian Luan? What are they still doing here?"
Cen Nan moved aside the front hall door and peeked inside, "My subordinates are here to watch the young divine doctor Jin perform a magic dance."
Bu Ruo took a look inside and frowned, then stepped into the front hall.
"Jin Congcong, why are you still messing around here so late at night instead of going back to sleep?"
Jin Congcong stopped when he heard Bu Ruo's voice, and tapped his legs which were sore from stomping.
"Ruo'er, why can't I just stamp my feet and go to the underworld?"
Bu Ruo: ???
"What? You can't wait to die? Actually, if you want to go to the underworld, you don't have to go through so much trouble..."
"Bi'er, give our Little Divine Doctor Jin a 1,000-liang silver note. I guarantee he'll be in the underworld by this time tomorrow night."
Jin Congcong was so scared that he shook his head: "That's not what I meant. I don't want to die. I just... simply want to go to the underworld and chat with those kind souls."
"I also want to do good deeds. What if they need my help? Wouldn't that be like accumulating merit for myself? Look, General Cui Hang was able to come back to life because of his merits. I also want to be a person with merits."
"Just now, Master Qian clearly promised me that he would take me with him if he went to the underworld, but when he left, he actually forgot about me. Then I asked him to take me there again, but he refused. How could this be possible?"
When Qian Luan heard Jin Congcong's complaint, he looked at Bu Ruo with grievance and said, "Princess, I really didn't want to agree to Dr. Jin's request."
"You don't know, he's been pestering me like crazy these past few days. To get me to agree to him, he even replaced all my three meals a day with the medicinal food he made... I... I really had no choice."
Bu Ruo sat on the chair and squinted at Jin Congcong: "You, a person who is terribly afraid of death, actually want to go to the underworld to see souls and do good deeds. Why am I so unconvinced?"
"Are you going to tell me or not? If you don't tell me what you're going to do, I'll leave. Besides, Qian Luan did nothing wrong. He can't take you to the underworld because you're still alive. If you really want to go, it's not impossible. If you die, he can take you directly there."
Seeing that Bu Ruo was serious, Jin Congcong finally spoke out his true feelings after much hesitation.
"A few days ago, I went out for breakfast with Master Qian. There was a new noodle shop two blocks away that was really delicious. After we finished eating, we were walking back. For some reason, Master Qian suddenly turned around and walked into a small alley nearby. He told me to wait there and wouldn't let me follow him."
"Well, I was curious, so I followed him secretly... I saw Hero Qian fighting with the air, and he didn't come out for a long time after the fight."
