"I don't agree to cancel the ferryman's work location on earth!" Yu Rong shouted loudly while standing on the high platform.

"The ferryman used to be very diligent in the beginning, but now he is just giving up and lying down! That's all because we didn't supervise him properly!"

"The number of evil spirits they capture each year is decreasing. There are so many wandering ghosts in the human world now. We have to cancel their workplace in the human world."

"So how do we know if they are working seriously?"

Zheng Wenjie coughed twice and said softly, "Judge Yurong, every year we in the underworld review the performance of the ferrymen. It is not scientific to use this convenience store as a workplace for our people in the human world."

"How useful is it to rely solely on the formation in the convenience store to attract those wandering ghosts? A few years ago, Judge Yurong, you proposed to ban the soul-collecting messengers from going to the human world."

"We all agreed, because some soul-catching messengers are doing nothing and are indeed endangering the human world."

"But since their work of collecting souls was cancelled, the workload of the ferrymen has been increasing year by year. It can be said that they are extremely busy."

Zheng Wenjie glanced at the thirty-odd judges sitting around the large round table and said, "The ferryman was appointed by Hades, and now I am in charge. All the judges know this."

Zheng Wenjie stretched out his hand, his thumb clasping his little finger: "The array set up in those convenience stores can only attract so many wandering ghosts."

"Under such circumstances, the system should be abolished, so that the ferrymen can act independently instead of having to stop at convenience stores and clock in every day. This will ensure the safety of each ferryman's area to a greater extent."

Yu Rong sneered at Zheng Wenjie: "Last year, Zhao Li's performance was the lowest among all the ferrymen. In his jurisdiction, there was even a ghost whose body had been frozen in the refrigerator by his wife for more than ten years."

Yurong slammed the table and said, "In this case, the ghost should be immediately captured and brought back to the underworld to face trial. But he acted on his own and violated the rules of the underworld, allowing the ghost to continue to stay in the human world."

"There is also the fierce ghost born in the academy under his jurisdiction, Senior Sister Red, whose reputation has reached my ears. What has Zhao Li been doing in the past few years?"

"Under such circumstances, you are still thinking of closing down the workplace. Don't even think about it. By then, these ferrymen will surely become even more unscrupulous and indulge themselves in the human world, ignoring the laws of the underworld!"

"In short, no matter what you say, we will not agree! What you need to do is to manage your ferrymen and make them improve their performance! As for the rest of the rules and regulations, we judges should consider them!"

Zheng Wenjie smiled and clapped his hands: "Judge Yurong, the underworld is not yours to rule alone. We all believe in democracy."

"Stop talking nonsense, let's follow the old rules and vote!"

"Now, those who agree to lay off the ferryman's position on earth, please raise your hands!" Zheng Wenjie raised his hand, and then looked at the judges sitting there one by one.

The judges looked at each other, then slowly raised their hands with sad faces.

Of the thirty-six judges, twenty-two raised their hands. Zheng Wenjie nodded with satisfaction and looked at Yu Rong: "Passed!"

Yurong looked grim, slammed the table, and left with several judges.

Zheng Wenjie curled his lips and said, "You are already cultivating the Yin body, but you are still so impatient."

The judge standing by secretly rolled his eyes. Ever since Zheng Wenjie began to interfere in the affairs of the underworld, Yu Rong, who was the most trusted person of the King of Hell, began to be neglected.

Now, even the rules for ferrymen in the human world set by Yurong himself are being overturned by Zheng Wenjie. It would be strange if Yurong could remain calm.

...

My name is Xia Dongqing. I’m an orphan, but I can see ghosts with my eyes. I used to work at convenience store No. 444. The manager was a ghost catcher named Zhao Li.

He said that he gave me these eyes that can see ghosts. Later, I fell in love with a girl named Wang Xiaoya, who was lively and cute. We experienced a lot of things together until one day she suddenly turned into another woman named Ya.

She said that Wang Xiaoya was just her ex, and now it is her true identity. She is the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens, the God of War of Kunlun, Ya!
She and Zhao Li told me that they would come to see me again when the moon turns red.

Then everything changed. Everything seemed like a dream. Except me, no one remembered Convenience Store No. 444, no one remembered Zhao Li, and no one remembered Wang Xiaoya.

But my eyes can still see ghosts.

There is a ghost in my dormitory. It was a ghost that once hanged itself in the dormitory. I got along very well with it. Later, a banshee wanted to get my eyes so she killed me!

Only then did I understand the agreement that Zhao Li, Ya and I had made. It turns out that the moon is red only in the eyes of ghosts, and it turns out that I can only see them again after I die.

But I wasn't completely dead yet, my soul returned to my body and I became a living dead that was getting hungrier and hungrier but couldn't eat any food.

This is because Ya kept her promise. She appeared after my soul left my body. She destroyed the banshee and put my soul back into her body.

But Zhao Li did not show up, he did not keep his promise, but I must find him, because only he can resurrect me.

It wasn't until Qingshan Mental Hospital contacted me that they took Zhao Li in, and he became a mental patient.

During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Qingshan Mental Hospital was actually an evil place where the Japanese conducted human experiments. After Ya came up with a solution, we successfully made Zhao Li sober up and broke the barrier hidden deep in Qingshan Mental Hospital.

Let the ghosts that have been trapped here for decades ago be able to reincarnate.

Xia Dongqing stood at the gate of Qingshan Mental Hospital with a relieved look on her face, and heard the sound of Zhao Li shaking his head and throwing a tantrum.

"Me! Zhao Li! I'm the ferryman of the underworld! I'm not well yet! I'm still wearing the hospital gown! You let me ride a bicycle back!"

"I want my Mercedes! I want my dark clothes! I want my gun!"

Ya laughed loudly and pushed Zhao Li. Xia Dongqing turned around, breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the sullen Zhao Li with disdain.

"Believe it or not, I just need to make a phone call and someone will come to pick me up. Hello! What, you are busy? Get lost!" Zhao Li put his slippers next to his ears and lifted his legs to sit on the back seat of the bicycle.

Xia Dongqing shook his head and patted the chair: "Shut up."

Zhao Li closed his mouth and saw Xia Dongqing sitting on the seat and Ya sitting on the crossbar. Xia Dongqing held the front of the bike tightly and kicked the bike, and the bike began to shake.

"Is that car behind us following us?" Ya suddenly said.

"What car?" Xia Dongqing instinctively pressed the brakes and looked back. An extended Linton slowly drove up to the side of the car and stopped, with the door just facing the bicycle.

"I didn't realize, Dongqing, that you've met a rich man in just one year. Tell me! Are you being kept by someone?" Zhao Li patted Dongqing on the back and immediately jumped off the bicycle and said.

Xia Dongqing rolled her eyes, too lazy to pay attention to Zhao Li, and looked strangely at the slowly opening car door.

"What's going on? No one is here?"

"What do you mean there's no one here? Why are you still riding this crappy bicycle? Get on it!" Zhao Li shook his hair, looking heroic and confident.

As soon as he got in the car, he fell silent and sat obediently on the sofa in the car. Xia Dongqing and Ya also got in the car one after another. There was indeed someone in the car.

Zheng Wenjie pressed the button to close the car door: "Sit down. Aren't you tired of standing with your back bent? Look at Zhao Li."

"Hello, thank you." Xia Dongqing said awkwardly and pulled Ya to sit next to Zhao Li.

Feeling the car starting to move, Zhao Li remained silent again. Xia Dongqing was not used to the current Zhao Li, but he was not afraid of having a ghost messenger and a Kunlun God of War by his side. What was there to be afraid of?

He just asked Zheng Wenjie awkwardly: "Um... where are you taking us?" "I'll take you back to your dormitory. My name is Zheng Wenjie. We look about the same age. You can just call me Ajie. By the way, I'm Zhao Li's good brother."

"Is that so..." Xia Dongqing murmured, looking left and right, and Zhao Li and Ya suddenly became silent.

"No, what happened to you? Why are you all silent all of a sudden, Zhao Li?"

Zhao Li cleared his throat, tilted his head and whispered in Xia Dongqing's ear: "Be quiet, don't talk. This is my boss, he's very fierce."

Zheng Wenjie picked up a peanut and flicked it on Zhao Li's forehead: "I can hear it!"

Zhao Li tilted his head and smiled brightly like a chrysanthemum: "Ajie, why are you here? Did you miss me? Really, I troubled you to send us off. I am sorry to trouble you."

"What were you thinking about from the moment you got in the car until just now?"

"Ah, ah? I'm not thinking about anything. You don't know, I'm sick, mentally ill, brother. I haven't recovered yet."

Zheng Wenjie said with disdain: "It is because you were careless and got ambushed that Hades is even more dissatisfied with you now."

"That Yurong even went to complain about me to Hades, saying that if the convenience stores hadn't been closed, there wouldn't have been so many problems. What exactly do you do every day?" Zheng Wenjie said as he threw peanuts at Zhao Li.

Zhao Li's face turned bitter. As expected, Zheng Wenjie came for Xia Dongqing, or to be more precise, the Chi You in Xia Dongqing's body. He was going to intervene. Now he could only hope that Zheng Wenjie would not force the issue and directly wake Chi You up.

"You can eat and drink as much as you want in this car. It's still a long way to Dongqing's college. Dongqing, Ya, eat and drink!"

Zhao Li knew he couldn't refuse, so he didn't care and started inviting them to eat and drink.

"Why are you still standing there? Just these few bottles of wine cost tens of thousands of dollars. It would be a waste if you don't drink them."

Zhao Li was yelling and patted Ya's shoulder through Xia Dongqing: "What's going on? The God of War will be scared too? Don't worry."

Xia Dongqing was anxious and asked: "Xiao Ya, are you okay?"

Ya gave a fake smile: "Ah, I'm fine."

“That’s good.” Xia Dongqing didn’t know what to say, so she could only nod. Even though she kept telling herself in her heart that Wang Xiaoya was Wang Xiaoya and Ya was Ya, she still couldn’t help but think of them as the same person.

Zheng Wenjie glared at Zhao Li unhappily. As he patted Xia Dongqing's shoulder, he made a contract with Xia Dongqing: "Do you think I'm blind? Or do you think I won't care about you anymore? You made a contract with Xia Dongqing in front of me."

"Ah? Ah! What are you saying? I don't understand. I'm from the country."

"What contract?" Xia Dongqing was stunned.

Zheng Wenjie sat up straight and said to Xia Dongqing with a smile: "Aren't you dead now? So Zhao Li made a contract with you. As long as you help him send ninety-nine and eighty-one evil spirits back to the underworld, you can be resurrected."

"After the contract is signed, you will have to follow Zhao Li all the time. If you are too far away from him, your soul will be scattered. If he dies, your soul will also be scattered."

Xia Dongqing looked at Zhao Li, who was pretending to be stupid and smiling: "So only by signing this contract can I be resurrected, right?"

"No, there's no need to go through so much trouble. I can resurrect you directly, but since Zhao Li has signed a contract..." Zheng Wenjie raised his eyebrows at Xia Dongqing.

"Zhao Li!" Xia Dongqing was furious: "Do you know how much I want to die now? I am getting hungrier and hungrier, but I can't eat anything. This kind of torture will only bring me back to life if I send eighty-one evil spirits to hell."

"Oh, no need. Dongqing, you are resurrected now, so don't worry about eating and drinking." Zheng Wenjie interrupted.

"Did you hear that? Did you hear that? Hurry up! Let me go right now, you have no respect for your parents!" Zhao Li cursed while slapping Xia Dongqing's hand that was pinching the collar of his hospital gown.

The extended Lincoln slowly stopped at the school gate.

"Thank you for sending us back. Can I really call you Ajie?"

Zheng Wenjie nodded: "Of course, haven't I already called you Dongqing?"

Xia Dongqing grinned and was about to say goodbye when he saw the extended Lincoln had already driven away: "Ajie, car, you haven't gotten in yet."

Zheng Wenjie put his arm around Xia Dongqing and walked into the academy: "What car? Didn't I just tell you? Zhao Li asked for injury leave, and I was planning to send him back to the underworld to recuperate."

"But he still wants to stay in the human world and has made a contract with you. There is nothing we can do about it. We can only let him do what he wants. After all, if he returns to the underworld, your soul will be scattered."

"I will be in charge of this area during this period."

Xia Dongqing stupidly responded and walked to the graduate dormitory before reacting: "No, then what are you doing now?"

"I just got here and have no place to live." Zheng Wenjie looked at Xia Dongqing as a matter of course.

"No, it's not." Xia Dongqing looked at Zheng Wenjie, and pointed at Zhao Li and Ya who were following behind him.

"You three want to use my hotel? Ajie, aren't you rich? You have a luxury car. Why don't you stay in a hotel first and then find a house?"

"The car is rented. Stop talking nonsense. It's so late now." Zheng Wenjie said perfunctorily, cast a spell on the dormitory manager, and walked into Xia Dongqing's dormitory leisurely.

Zheng Wenjie lay on Xia Dongqing's bed and stretched his body without any hesitation.

Xia Dongqing stood beside the bed, dumbfounded as he saw that even his roommate's bed was occupied by Zhao Li. He had no choice but to turn his head to look at the obedient Ya, then walked forward and pulled Zhao Li up.

"Zhao Li, let Xiaoya sleep on the bed, and you and I will sleep on the floor. Get up quickly."

"Don't move! Don't move! I'm a wounded soldier. How can you let me sleep on the floor? Don't forget your principles just for the sake of beauty."

After arguing for a while, Zhao Li reluctantly got out of bed and winked at Ya and said, "By the way, Ajie. This is Ya.

"Okay, I get it. Relax. I am a gentleman and I always convince people with reason."

Ya, lying on the bed, felt a sharp pain in her heart. You are a gentleman, a gentleman who has killed several Arhats. But she barely got the promise from Zheng Wenjie that he would not do anything, and she felt relieved.

She is now in her real form. In order to avoid the five decays of heaven and man, she sealed all her cultivation in the feather robe and placed it in Kunlun. If Zheng Wenjie attacked her, she would not be able to resist and would die.

"Ajie, you have enough money to rent a luxury car, why do you still want to squeeze with me?" Xia Dongqing, who was lying on the floor with Zhao Li, asked curiously.

"Get up early tomorrow and let's go find a house together. Stop talking now and go to sleep." Zhao Li interrupted.

Since Zheng Wenjie has come for Chi You, he certainly cannot hide. In this case, we have to do what we should do. All Zhao Li can do is to cooperate with Zheng Wenjie.

The feelings he had for Xia Dongqing were only developed recently, and he had not yet forgotten them because he had no soul. He could still feel them. All Zhao Li could do was to protect Xia Dongqing as much as possible.

After Chi You is able to adapt to Xia Dongqing's body and fully master his own power, he will find a way to help Xia Dongqing be reborn into a good life.
