It took more than a month.
Qu Jian'er and the Ding family ensured that all the children had returned to their respective homes before she finally had time to enter the underworld.
Then I heard it.
"Welcome to the Underworld Office. I am Director Lao Yin. For routine questions, please refer to the virtual screen. For special questions, please consult me. Note: Please bring your own translator."
Lao Yin has undergone a complete transformation.
I learned from Qu Jian'er that working in the office can increase one's virtuous deeds, which can then be transferred to one's living family members.
May they gain merit.
Good deeds can bring good fortune, which usually manifests as wealth and health.
so.
Lao Yin is full of energy.
Aside from spending time intimately with Ding Ze during the day.
I work tirelessly at night.
This is how Qu Jian'er witnessed the scene.
Lao Yin exuded a sinister aura: "All applicants, please prepare your resumes, submit them, and take your seats to proceed with the process. Briefly discuss your views on the economic strength, cultural development, and military power of the underworld, and also briefly mention your plans for the underworld office over the next three years."
Her bloody aura swept over us.
If it weren't for the name tag on her body, which shone with the light of non-killing, the spirits present would have scattered and run away long ago.
There are quite a few newcomers in the group.
Someone stood in the last row without leaving a trace.
Then we discovered it.
A girl next to me looked nervous and dazed, and sighed from time to time.
Qu Jian'er followed for a while: "Why are you sighing? By the way, I'll be dead for a month, how about you?"
She had nothing to do.
He mingled with the ghosts at night to apply for a job.
"I don't know if this job posting is reliable or not, or if it's another unknown danger. I've been dead for over ten years."
The one who answered Qu Jian'er was a girl who had drowned. She claimed to be from Planet X. Because she had no resentment, she was supposed to be reincarnated directly, but she found that the water in the Underworld Pool was pitifully low.
The waterway is only wide enough to accommodate one person at a time, and if a spirit cannot cross the river, it cannot be reincarnated.
Either you have to wait in line for a hundred years, or you risk being swallowed up by other "people" and remain in the human world.
Suddenly one day.
A loudspeaker blared from the underworld.
The girl followed the crowd here.
Then we discovered it.
I don't know when it started.
A four-cornered tent was erected in the underworld.
But she was very wary.
Therefore, he hesitated to go forward.
I waited in line for half an hour, and I was still in the last row.
Qu Jian'er seized on the key point: "Judging from what you're saying, were you deceived before?"
If you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them.
Because she trusted Lao Yin enough, she directly gave him the management authority of the underworld.
But she didn't know if there were other forces in the underworld before their group appeared.
after all.
Last time I came to the underworld.
She only saw the distorted consciousness of the underworld, and did not see any other souls. Even her old acquaintances (the dead) from the apocalypse were gone.
The girl continued, "I heard from some elders that there are also terrifying creatures in the underworld that devour the dead, and those of us who want to be reincarnated have to live in the underworld pool to avoid being found. But then one day, that terrifying aura disappeared, and everyone slowly came out, wanting to get some fresh air, and that's when they discovered the job posting."
Her words were filled with genuine fear.
It seems there really is something terrifying.
Upon hearing this...
Qu Jian'er subconsciously thought of the underworld consciousness, and how eagerly the other party wanted to possess her soul.
How could they be so impatient?
It must be because they don't usually have the opportunity.
If these dead souls are unknowingly protected by the underworld.
illustrate.
The underworld allows them to live in the pool of the underworld.
So that they wouldn't be discovered by the consciousness of the underworld.
In this way.
Everything makes sense now.
Qu Jian'er nodded.
The girl tried to lighten the mood: "I never thought there would be danger even after death. It's true that even the dead can't find peace."
She told Qu Jian'er about how it was becoming increasingly difficult to be reincarnated in the underworld, and how the queues were becoming more and more chaotic.
Those who are too weak to become low-level vengeful spirits will be scattered and destroyed in the sunlight once they leave the underworld.
It's harder for them than when they were alive.
Qu Jian'er looked at the approaching tent: "There will be peace. Isn't this a way out?"
The girl whispered, "If... um, I'm telling you secretly, you'd better watch out."
She looked at Qu Jian'er's true face.
I think the other person is extremely kind.
He immediately shared the new information with Qu Jian'er, hoping she would be careful.
Qu Jian'er asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
The girl whispered, "Isn't there three places in the underworld? Besides the Underworld Pool and the Netherworld, there's also a group of Li Gui outside the Six Paths of Reincarnation in Hell. They can't be reincarnated, and with all this commotion here, I'm afraid they'll come out and cause trouble."
Qu Jian'er knew about Li Kui during the apocalypse, and she grasped the key point, saying, "Did they escape from the eighteen levels of hell?"
The girl nodded, still shaken, and said, "We can get out. The winter solstice is the day with the heaviest yin energy. And similarly, the pressure in Hell Town is stronger then."
Qu Jian'er chimed in, "On the contrary, the summer solstice is different. But hasn't the summer solstice already passed? It's already autumn now."
The girl shook her head and corrected her, "This December calculation method is based on the past. From the perspective of humans, you died too late and were unaware of the changes here."
Suddenly someone said I died too late.
Qu Jian'er's lips twitched.
I barely managed to hold back my laughter.
She listened attentively to the "lesson".
I learned that in the underworld, time flows in a cycle of 390 days, which is a full 13 months.
It takes a month for the energy of the living world to travel to the underworld. Whether considering temperature changes or the calculation of time, there is at least a two-month gap between the two.
