Yifan followed his big brother's indifferent route map and found the Nether King City, also known as the Hades City. There were many ghost soldiers guarding the city gate, and they were strictly checking the ghost residents who entered and exited the city. When the leader of the small team saw a female ghost that was somewhat beautiful, he kept harassing her a few times to take advantage of her. Even as a ghost, he was also a womanizer. There were lechers everywhere. However, using oneself as a mirror, they were also jackals of the same tribe, not much better. The only difference was that he dared to show it openly, while I was just imagining it.
After observing for a while, Yifan followed behind a female ghost and swaggered towards the city gate.
"Little girl, where are you going?" The little leader stopped the female ghost in front of him lecherously. He held the female ghost's chin with his hand and examined it." Does she look decent? Are you married?"
" No..." The female ghost was so scared that she dodged to the side.
"Why don't you stay and accompany me? I guarantee that you'll have a good life. What do you think?" The little leader touched the female ghost's buttocks and said presumptuously.
"I've already been betrothed to my husband's family. My fiancé is the second young master of the Tong Ren Tang Pharmacy in the city.”the female ghost answered timidly.
"Boss Jin's daughter-in-law, go in!”the leader said ruefully.
"Stop! What do you do?" The ghost soldiers guarding the city saw that the oil and water had been taken by the leader, and they were angry but did not dare to say it. When they saw Yifan following behind the female ghost and trying to muddle through, they raised their swords and spears and shouted.
"I'm going to the city to do business." Yifan answered calmly.
"In this day and age, everyone says that they're the boss when they meet. How many of them are really rich? What kind of business do you do? Are you a fake spy sent by a foreign country? Take out your documents!" Ghost Soldier pointed his gun at Yifan and threatened.
"Big brother, I am indeed doing business. I'm an errand boy of Taibai Restaurant, I'm here to buy some goods for the boss.”Yifan replied calmly.
"Taibai Restaurant? Are you an errand boy for the indifferent commander?”The leader turned to look at Yifan and asked with a pleasant expression.
"Yes, I am! I have his recommendation letter here." Yifan had just arrived in the Underworld and had yet to report to the King of Hell. He did not have an ID card and it was inconvenient for him to walk around. He didn't have time to get a temporary ID card, so he wrote Yifan a letter of recommendation. He hoped that when he met the ghost soldiers, he would be lenient on account of his past status as a commander.
The little ghost leader looked at the letter Yifan handed him seriously and said fawningly,"En! It's a handwritten letter from the Great Commander. Please!”
"Thank you!" As he spoke, Yifan gave him 500 Underworld coins.
"Good brother, if there's anything you need in the future, just tell me.”The leader held Yifan's hand and said politely.
"I'll treat you to a drink next time. I still have something to do, so I'll leave first.”Yifan said enthusiastically.
"Alright! Alright!" The leader nodded happily.
After entering the city gate that was 100 meters tall and 50 meters wide, the market inside was indeed an ancient city with a long history. The streets were wide, the traffic was crisscrossed, and there were many shops. The ghost people were bustling with activity, buying and selling, and it was extremely lively.
Yifan inquired all the way and came to a general's residence in the outer city-the counselor's residence. There were two little ghosts at the door. They had green faces and long hair. They had wide mouths and cracked cheeks. They were burly and strong. He walked steadily to the door and cupped his fists."Hello, big brothers. I have an old friendship with General Zhang and have something important to discuss.”
"Do you want to invite me?" A fierce-looking reapers asked in disdain.
"No!"
"Do you have an appointment?" Another guy asked condescendingly.
"No!"
"Then why should we believe you? There were too many fake and inferior products these days, and there were even more people who pretended to be relatives. Some of them couldn't even hit the nail on the head, but they still came to claim kinship. We've been scolded by the lord many times. Without a special token, we can forget about entering!”The reapers grumbled resentfully.
"I have a recommendation letter here. Please pass it to General Zhang.”Yifan took out a secret letter that he had written to General Zhang and handed it to the reapers.
"I run errands all year round. Not only did my legs swell up from running, but I also wore out a few pairs of shoes. I only get a little salary every month, and it's not enough to support my wife and children.”The reapers held the letter in their hands and weighed it in their hands. They only complained and did not move.
"That's right! It was hard to be a ghost, but even harder to be a ghost! From morning until now, he had not eaten rice or water. His eyes were blurry, and his legs were shaking. He could not walk!”Another reapers chimed in.
The King of Hell was easy to meet, but the little devil was difficult to deal with. Yifan had truly experienced it today! He took out two hundred Underworld coins from his pocket and handed them to the reapers, pleading,""This is just a small gift. Please accept it! I do have something to see you about, General.”
"Young Master, please wait a moment. I will inform the general immediately.”One of the reapers touched the money with his hand and felt that it was not fake. After saying that with a smile, he ran into the courtyard.
It was true that money could make the world go round!
In a flash, the reapers ran out quickly and bowed.""Brother, General Zhang invites you!"
As soon as he entered the mansion, he heard hurried footsteps. Yifan looked up and saw a general with proper facial features and a dignified appearance. He was wearing armor and walked out of the inner residence. He greeted him with cupped fists and said in a loud voice,"Brother, please forgive me for being late and not being able to welcome you!”
"General, you're too kind!" Seeing that the general was so polite, Yifan immediately had a good impression of him. He quickly said," How can I be so capable? It's my honor to have you come personally!"”
"Please come in!" the general said humbly.
"General, please!" Yifan knew that the general was so hospitable to him because of Big Brother Wu. He didn't dare to be arrogant.
General Zhang saw that Yifan insisted on letting him go first and nodded with satisfaction. He smiled happily and said,"Then I will lead the way for you, brother.”
Following the general into the main hall, they sat down after exchanging pleasantries. General Zhang looked at the servants on both sides and ordered,""There's nothing here. Why don't you all leave?”
"Yes, General!" The servants bowed and left the door one by one, and the last one gently closed the door.
After the servants left, General Zhang asked in a low voice,""Brother Yifan, how is big brother now?”
"Thanks to General, Big Brother is safe and sound!”Yifan replied respectfully.
"Brother Yifan, don't be polite. It's better for us to call each other brothers.”General Zhang solemnly said to Yifan," Back then, Big Brother Wu was like a brother to me. If it wasn't for him risking his life to save me, I would have lost my life long ago. Since you're Big Brother's third brother, we're brothers. Don't treat me as an outsider!”
Before Yifan left, Big Brother Wu wrote him a few letters and told him about the situation of Yama's subordinates. Among them, General Zhang was his most trusted friend and had saved his life. Back then, General Zhang's mother was seriously ill. He went home to visit her and asked the doctor to save her for a few hours before she was out of danger. When he returned to the military camp, he happened to be discovered by the King of Hell's inspection. He left his post without permission and should be executed according to the King of Hell's law. When he was pushed out of the King of Hell's Palace, it was Brother Wu who stood up and spoke to the King of Hell generously, telling him the reason for his delay. At that time, King Yama was very fond of him. He also spoke out the thoughts of ghosts. Ghosts also had a family. Filial piety to their parents was a traditional virtue. Without a mother, there would be no one. If their son couldn't stay by their bed when they were sick or critically ill, and couldn't fulfill his filial piety, then he wouldn't be an outstanding ghost. If he was heartless to his parents, then he wouldn't be righteous to the King of Hell either. Not only are such ghost generals useless, but they can also be your greatest threat at critical times. There are still ghosts outside the law, please think twice.
After hearing Yifan's heartfelt words, those who were usually on good terms with him nodded in agreement. King Yama thought about it and felt that the previous punishment was too severe, so he gave General Zhang 30 strokes of the cane, suspended his salary for three months, and waited for a year.
This was unprecedented at that time. No one had expected the King of Hell to be so lenient. General Zhang came back alive from the gates of hell and was grateful to King Yama and Brother Wu. Thus, they became sworn friends and would not change their lives.
After being demoted to an empty post and resigning in anger, General Zhang also wanted to resign with him and leave Hades 'Palace. But on one hand, Big Brother Wu didn't want to implicate him to travel with him. His life was not guaranteed. After all, General Zhang had a family, unlike him, who was a bachelor and had no worries wherever he went. Also, it was easy to do things with ghosts in the imperial court. With him around, it was equivalent to placing a chess piece in front of the King of Hell in case of an emergency.
The other brothers and colleagues were also persuaded by his gentle words. The ghosts left and the tea was cold. There were so many ghosts still thinking of him. He was content.
After listening to his big brother's story, Yifan admired him even more. He was determined to follow his example and make a good name for himself.
Even if you were a ghost, you had to be romantic. Even if you were a ghost, you had to have taste!
