Chapter 116: Not reincarnating for the sake of the novel?
Chapter 116: Not reincarnating for the sake of the novel?
"You must remember this. If you forget, I'll knock on your door at the same place tomorrow night."
"I heard that the author seems to have a new book. You wouldn't let me read it when I was alive, saying it was too scary and exciting. You have to burn it for me after I die. Print a copy and burn it."
"If it doesn't burn you, just wait. I will send a message to your mother in your dream and ask her to deal with you."
"..."
Before leaving, perhaps to teach her a lesson, grandpa used his cane again.
She woke up with stars in her eyes, her brain a little confused, as if she had been knocked silly.
But I remember the dream very clearly in my mind. In the past, the memory would be more or less vague after waking up from a dream, but this time it was as if I had really experienced it.
Wang Anxin shuddered, got up and turned on all the lights in the room.
Is this dream true or false?
Really——Didn’t they say there are no ghosts in this world?!
Fake... She went to her grandfather's room to look for the money to see whether it was real or fake.
Wang Anxin waited until noon, which is said to be the time when Yang energy is at its strongest.
I found my grandparents' room according to the location grandpa said.
She actually found a dozen dollars, including one dollar, five dollars, twenty dollars, one hundred dollars, and even a piggy bank.
Holding it in my hand, I feel like there are quite a few coins inside.
Wang Anxin took it out tremblingly, counted it, and found that it was exactly the same as what his grandfather described in his dream.
"Ahhhh——Mom, grandma, and grandpa came to me in my dreams!!!"

"Where are the other ghost messengers? Where did they go? Where is Xie Ling?!"
Shen Junyi was on the verge of going berserk. There were ghosts howling at the entrance of the hall, and the combined sound was deafening. Unfortunately, there were not enough ghost catchers here, and they were unable to control the situation.
I don’t know why, but there are these ghosts coming recently.
Those who draw the lottery to be the first to reincarnate are unwilling to do so and insist on staying.
Ask if there are any unfulfilled wishes.
Answer: The novel I’m reading hasn’t concluded yet.
Shen Junyi really wanted to throw them into the ball and let them reincarnate.
After one batch is dealt with, another batch comes. Those who have not been reincarnated yet are still fine, but those who are about to be reincarnated will clamor and make a fuss and say they don’t want to be reincarnated.
"What the hell, what kind of novel is this? The new ghosts here don't want to be reincarnated."
"Where are the other ghost messengers? Where did they go?!"
"Sister Junyi, there are only Xie Ling and a new ghost messenger, Wang Lin, left. The two have just arrived at the door and are now restoring order."
Shen Junyi flipped through the extra files and documents impatiently, and roared, "Let those two damn ghosts find a way to deal with those people at the door. If they can't solve it, throw them into the Wangchuan River to feed the fish!"
"Just, the two of them? There are thousands of ghosts out there."
"It's just the two of them. They only came after I called them for a long time. They have neglected their duties so many times. They seem to be blinded by sex demons these days. If they can't solve the problem, they will accept the punishment themselves."
"Okay, okay."
The ghost thought, these two have been stepping on Shen Junyi's bottom line every time recently, no wonder Shen Junyi got so angry.
There were not enough people to begin with, and with the increase in the number of ghosts, there were so many gathering and making trouble.
It would be strange if I could be in a good mood.
Which ghost messenger is not gradually driven into a mental disorder?
After a while, the ghost came in and said, "Sister Junyi, I asked the people below, and 80% of them said they haven't finished reading the novel yet, and they don't want to leave. They asked if there is any way to stay."
Shen Junyi: “???”
Giving up reincarnation and staying here to do hard labor for the sake of a novel?
"Let Xie Ling tell them that if they pass the ghost test, they can stay on shore."
This always scares away a group of people.
"……OK."
A few minutes later.
"Sister Junyi, 2865 people have signed up for the ghost messenger position."
"Seize the young man???"
Shen Junyi's eyes almost popped out. You have to know that over the past few hundred years, there were only about a hundred ghost messengers who survived by cheating and deceiving others.
This time, more than 2,000 people signed up.
Haven’t they been treated like beasts of burden in the human world enough?
Xie Ling and Old Man Wang walked in. Shen Junyi rushed forward and asked, "What's going on? How did you fool them? Don't go too far."
Although they will say nice things to trick people into becoming ghost messengers, they cannot say too much.
For example, once you come in, you don’t have to work, you can go to the human world at will, and there is no difference between being alive and being dead.
That's too much. Those who stay behind will feel too much of a gap. If they are unhappy and make a scene before the King of Hell, they will also be punished.
Xie Ling waved his hands and said somewhat proudly, "I explained our situation to them very clearly, including the pros and cons, but they insisted on signing up no matter what."
Shen Junyi didn't believe it. If he really explained it clearly, would people be willing to stay?
She felt that the hundreds of years she had spent in vain.
Old Man Wang said, "You don't understand. Those people outside who don't want to leave are all our book friends. Although we don't know each other, we are very familiar with each other."
"what book?"
Shen Junyi suddenly thought of the novel that other people frequently mentioned when they came to tell her, and the group of people outside howling that they didn't see the ending.
They also thought of the time when someone drew a lottery right in front of them and was reincarnated two hours later, and they looked as if the sky had fallen.
She hadn't taken this key word to heart before, because in her mind, this reason was too damn outrageous.
Those who were unwilling to reincarnate before may have done so for their loved ones, relatives, or friends, or because they had not yet resolved their hatred, had not yet killed their enemies, or had not yet made up for their debts...
These big and small things can all be explained.
But for a novel...
No matter how I listen to it, it seems weird and absurd.
Now that I heard someone mention it again, I couldn't help but feel curious.
Xie Ling rummaged through his pocket and took out the "Death Train" that Old Man Wang's granddaughter had burned.
"This novel is so good. I have never seen such a good story in my hundreds of years of life! It is so scary and sad that even a ghost like me cried so hard."
It's not that ghosts can't shed tears, but it's difficult for them to shed tears. When they were humans, they had a lot of emotions and could cry for many things, but as ghosts their empathy ability was greatly reduced, and there were very few things that could cause them to feel happy, angry, sad, or joy.
After the death, the family met each other down there, and except for the initial excitement, there were probably no major ups and downs.
The most excited people in the entire underworld are the ghost messengers who have been working like slaves for years.
Xie Ling had been recruiting souls in the world for many years and had long been accustomed to the joys and sorrows of the world. There was no ripple in his heart and he counted the time like a machine, not caring whether others had prepared for death or whether their last words had been clearly stated.
But this novel really evoked a lot of emotions in him.
Joy, anger, sorrow and happiness were all presented one by one. Even in some scary places, he, as a ghost, would be frightened and had to move to a more lively place before he could calm down and continue watching.
When you are obsessed with something, you will inevitably slack off at work.
The corners of Shen Junyi's mouth twitched, and she glanced at the book with no interest at all.
