In a secret corner of the Netherworld.
Chen Changjun was secretly happy to have a new employee. It was his first time being a boss. This feeling was not bad.
"System, how should I grant the position of a ghost officer?”Chen Changjun asked.
"You only need to sign a letter of appointment and stamp it with the seal of the Ghost Officials Department!”
"But I don't have the Ghost Official Department's seal.”
"The host is the supreme Son of Heaven Yin of this realm and holds the emperor's seal. He had the highest authority in the Netherworld!”
"Hiss! I understand."
He sighed in his heart. He immediately began to write the appointment letter.
"Today, there is Zhang Shunchang from Changping County of Song Country who has done good deeds for three generations. Merit is boundless, and there is no great evil, after the ghost official department investigation. He was hired. Zhang Shunchang was granted the position of ghost and god, and led the soul-capturing envoy of the Impermanence Hall (no grade). He was appointed by Chen Changjun, the soul-capturing envoy of the ninth grade.”
He looked at the appointment certificate he had written with satisfaction and was about to stamp the emperor's seal. But then, he thought about it. It was too demeaning for a low-grade ghost to need the Son of Heaven Seal. This was as ridiculous as the imperial court of the Yang Realm appointing a small constable and still needing to stamp the imperial seal of the country.
The emperor's seal appeared in his hand and Chen Changjun stamped it heavily on the appointment certificate. The words " Ghost Official Department's Imperial Decree " were clearly printed on the appointment certificate. This time, there was no problem with this appointment certificate.
Zhang Shunchang was anxiously waiting in circles. There was no sun in the underworld. There was only endless darkness. There were no living beings. The silence was terrifying. He didn't know how much time had passed. It might have been two hours, half a day, or even half a month. He had only felt this way when the imperial examination results were released.
He sighed faintly. He recalled the encounters in his life. First, his parents died, and he relied on his extraordinary talent to study hard. Finally, he passed the imperial examination. For decades, he was an official and served as a member of the government. The pride of his career had made him neglect the education of his children and grandchildren. This was the cause of the tragedy in his later years.
Then, it turned into a malicious ghost and was subdued by this mysterious Netherworld. Now, there was even hope of becoming one of them.
"Life is really full of ups and downs!" Zhang Shunchang sighed.
At this moment, the space fluctuated. Chen Changjun walked out of the space gate in his official uniform. He looked at the anxious Zhang Shunchang and couldn't help but think of the process of anxiously waiting for the interview results in his previous life. He could not help but sigh in his heart.
Seeing Chen Changjun's arrival, Zhang Shunchang quickly bowed and said,"Greetings, Milord!"
"Yes!" Chen Changjun said lightly.
Looking at Zhang Shunchang's expectant eyes, Chen Changjun didn't disappoint him.
"The Prefect Lord has already nodded in agreement, and the Ghost Officials Department has also issued the appointment document.”After saying that, he took out the appointment letter from his pocket and handed it to Zhang Shunchang. Zhang Shunchang took the appointment letter. He carefully unfolded it and finally relaxed after reading the contents. This Ghost Officials Department was probably equivalent to the Ministry of Personnel in the Yang world.
At this moment, the appointment document suddenly turned into stars and scattered on Zhang Shunchang. With a shake of his body, he turned into the image of a ghost officer. The only difference was the details and color of his uniform.
Zhang Shunchang was also extremely surprised, immediately feeling the mystery of the netherworld.
He waved the Soul Capturing Whip in his hand and the knife at his waist. Sensing the great power contained in it, he was filled with awe towards the Netherworld. As expected of the tyrannical Netherworld.
Then, he bowed to Chen Changjun and said respectfully,""This lowly one is grateful for Daren's kindness in promoting me. I'm willing to die to serve the underworld, to serve Daren."
He accepted the bow calmly and sighed in his heart. As expected of a high-ranking official, he did things one way or another. Then, he remembered that there were still some basic things that he needed to explain to Zhang Shunchang to avoid violating the taboos of the underworld.
"Shunchang is in the Netherworld. The biggest rule was not to disturb the order of the Yang Realm. No matter how much hatred you had with anyone when you were alive, after you die, you are not allowed to use your authority to take revenge and interfere in the affairs of the mortal world. Otherwise, if they were tainted by karma, the Prefect Lord would investigate. If it was light, he would be thrown into the eighteen levels of hell to be punished. If it was serious, he would be beaten until his soul was scattered and he would never be able to reincarnate!”
Chen Changjun stared at Zhang Shunchang and said faintly.
"I will remember it." Zhang Shunchang cupped his fists solemnly.
"Secondly, as Soul Captors, our greatest responsibility is to capture and lock souls. When one's lifespan was up, they would return to the underworld. Some living beings missed the Yang Realm and disturbed the normal operation of the Yang Realm. This was unacceptable. Reapers like us have the duty to capture this evil ghost. This was not only to complete the task assigned by the higher-ups, but also to accumulate merit. It was beneficial for cultivation and advancement. If you hadn't done good deeds for three lifetimes and accumulated a lot of merit, you wouldn't have been able to become a ghost god. Just because you dared to resist the ghost reapers of the Netherworld, no one would say anything even if I beat your soul into pieces.”
Zhang Shunchang looked ashamed and vexed at his foolish actions.
"Alright, I've said what I need to say. You should know your limits. I see that you are only one step away from becoming a ghost general. Find a place to cultivate. The Netherworld is the most suitable place for ghosts to cultivate. If he was a Ghost God of the Netherworld, he wouldn't even be a Ghost General. Then the Netherworld really can't afford to lose this person. After you advance, I will arrange tasks for you.”
Chen Changjun waved his hand, signaling Zhang Shunchang to leave.
Zhang Shunchang understood and cupped his fists.
"I'll take my leave!"
Then, he slowly disappeared in front of Chen Changjun.
Watching Zhang Shunchang disappear from his sight, Chen Changjun let out a sigh of relief. It was not easy to fool people.
However, Inferno had finally welcomed its first employee. He did not count as the boss.
Mm, keep up the good work!
"Hahahahaha!"
Chen Changjun laughed.
