"Thank you, Shing Wong…"
An Yanyuan sat on a stone chair in the courtyard of his residence in the underworld, listening to the devout words that came from his ears.
He slowly opened his eyes and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
"It's the child from yesterday and that young mother.”he muttered to himself.
pfff ~
Ghost Baby, who was playing with a ball, caught the ball that had jumped over. It heard An Shiyuan's words and turned to look.
"Do you want to go play with your friends?"
An Shiyuan noticed Ghost Baby's gaze." Go, but remember not to scare anyone, okay?"”
Ghost Baby listened for a second before running out of the courtyard.
Seeing this.
An Shiyuan smiled.
He didn't expect the ghost infant to get along with the little girl.
In a moment, An Yanyuan thought of something. He pinched his fingers lightly, and realization dawned on his face.
" I'm fated to be with Xi 'er…" he murmured, and the smile on his face grew wider." I was Xi' er's playmate when I was young, and I can be Xi 'er's close friend. I'm so happy."”
Because of what happened yesterday, the little girl and the ghost infant were fated. This was not the kind of happy fate of love, but the fate of friendship.
How could An Yanyuan not be happy for Xi 'er to have such a playmate? Xi' er had a playmate who was not afraid of him. This was naturally his luck. This was something worth being happy about.
This was the little girl's luck, and also Xi 'er's luck.
Ding…Saving a single mother and daughter has triggered a special check-in. Do you wish to check-in?
At this moment, the familiar system voice sounded again.
"Sign in."
An Yuanyuan replied.
He signed in and obtained the Evil Book.
Hearing this name, An Shiyuan didn't need to look at the introduction to know what it was.
The other Underworld Book that complemented the Good Book.
There were many divisions under the City God's Underworld Department. There were different divisions depending on the size of the City God. There were three divisions, six divisions, twenty-four divisions, and even more than seventy divisions. No matter how many divisions there were, these subordinate divisions would have Underworld Departments that rewarded good and punished evil. And to operate this Underworld Department, there was a necessary Good Book and Evil Book.
The Book of Kindness, as the name suggested, recorded the good people.
The Evil Book, as the name suggested, was a record of evil.
An Shiyuan looked at the reward introduction. The explanation was similar to what he had thought. This was the Evil Book that matched the Good Book.
He opened his palm and a custom-made blue book appeared on it.
The two words 'Evil Book' were written on the ancient book.
The strokes moved like dragons and snakes, vigorous and powerful. They emitted a vast majesty and also had a terrifying aura that made people afraid.
"Yes."
An Yanyuan threw the book lightly, and the evil book flew into the room and fell into the bookshelf, next to the good book.
After doing all of this, he summoned a Night Patrol God, Ye Zhong.
Today's breathing exercise ended.
He needed to ask about the situation in his territory. This was one of his daily homework. Now that his territory had expanded to three cities, he had to listen to more reports from the patrols in his territory.
……
Zhang Li brought Tiantian to worship the clay statue of the City God.
After doing all this, Zhang Li took the longevity money she had bought and went to the incense burner to burn it.
"Mom, I want to go over there to play."
Tiantian looked at a small door beside the temple and pointed at it.
Hearing this.
Zhang Li was stunned.
She followed her gaze and looked over. I remember that it was the back of the temple…
"Tiantian, what do you want to play over there?”Zhang Li was puzzled. There was nothing behind the door.
"I'm playing with my friends."
Tian Tian smiled.
"Friends?" Zhang Li was surprised.
Her daughter had no friends before because of her lack of intelligence. How could she have friends now?
In the next moment, she thought of something. The small door led to the place where she found Tiantian yesterday. Thinking of this, Zhang Li couldn't help but think of how Tiantian's IQ defect had been cured by Lord Shing Wong. Her heart skipped a beat. This friend was Lord Shing Wong?
However, she soon felt that something was wrong.
If it was Lord Shing Wong, Tiantian should have said 'uncle', not' friend'.
"Alright, I'll bring you there." Thinking of this, Zhang Li agreed.
As she spoke, her face was filled with curiosity. Who was the friend Tiantian was talking about?
"Mom, I'll go by myself. You don't have to accompany me.”Tiantian looked up at Zhang Li. She thought of the ghost baby's appearance and its hiding behavior yesterday." It's timid. Tiantian can go alone."”
Zhang Li was startled…Afraid of strangers?
This time, she was worried. She was worried about Tiantian being there alone.
What if some bad person tricked Tiantian into going there and kidnapped her?
"Tiantian, can't Mommy really go with you? Mommy…"
Her face was full of worry, but before she could finish her words, she was stunned by Tiantian's words.
"Mommy, it's with Uncle. It's a good person like Uncle.”
Together?
Zhang Li widened her eyes and quickly asked Tiantian. She pointed at the statue and whispered," Tiantian, is this 'friend' that you're talking about with this uncle?”
Tiantian nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
Seeing this.
Zhang Li was stunned.
If he was with Lord Shing Wong, wouldn't that mean…
She looked at the many clay statues of ghosts and gods placed in the temple and swept her gaze across the ox-headed and horse-faced ghosts and gods, the day and night wandering gods, and so on.
He looked at the fiendish statue, the statue of the angry Vajra.
Gulp ~ Zhang Li instinctively swallowed her saliva.
In an instant, she thought of Tiantian's 'fear of strangers' problem. In a sense, this was really…fear of strangers.
After ensuring her safety, Zhang Li asked another question. Did this friend know her uncle?
After knowing that they knew each other, Zhang Li did not stop Tiantian.
"Tiantian, go ahead. Mom will wait for you in that courtyard. Come and find me when you're done playing.”
"Okay ~~" Tiantian drawled and jogged toward the small door.
Zhang Li watched Tiantian's back disappear into the small door.
She looked at the various statues of ghosts and gods in the Shing Wong Temple and quickly took some candies from the bag and placed them on the stage in front of each statue.
Not all the tributes in the City God Temple had to be taken back. Sometimes, some biscuits and candies could be placed in front of the tables of the various ghosts and gods. There was no need to take them away. They were considered tributes to the ghosts and gods.
Immediately, Zhang Li took the longevity gold and walked towards the incense burner.
On the other side.
Tiantian ran to the place where she had been yesterday.
She stopped in her tracks and looked around with her big eyes." Come out quickly. Let's play ball together."”
Just now, Tiantian was preparing to burn the longevity gold with her mother, Zhang Li. However, halfway through, she noticed a small white corner of the door. She was very familiar with this scene.
Thinking of the ghost baby, Tiantian decided to play with the ghost baby.
That was the first child she had played with for so long. In the past, the children would run away after playing with her for a while. They didn't want to play with her. Only the ghost infant would play with her. Tiantian liked to play with the ghost infant. This was her first friend.
"Where are you? I know you're here.”
As Tiantian spoke, she went back and forth to look for the ghost infant.
She looked up and saw a pair of ghostly eyes that had no white in them.
This scene was exactly the same as yesterday.
"Hehe." Tiantian smiled happily." Are you playing hide-and-seek with me?”
The ghost infant disappeared and reappeared in front of Tiantian. It held the ball and had no expression on its face, but Tiantian could see the ghost infant's confusion.
"Don't you know how to play hide-and-seek?"
Tiantian whispered.
The next moment, her little face was filled with excitement." Let's play hide-and-seek. How about you hide it and I'll look for it? How about I hide the ball and you look for it?”
Ghost Baby looked at Tian Tian and said.
Two seconds later, it handed the small ball over and threw it to Tiantian.
"Let me teach you how to play."
Tiantian acted like a little adult and happily took the ball.
She paused after saying that." By the way, what's your name? I'm Tiantian. What's yours?"”
……
Time flew by.
An hour passed, and Tiantian's little face was troubled.
"Xiao Bai, why are you able to find it every time?”She had hidden the ball many times, and no matter how she hid it, the ghost infant would always find it. However, she could not find it every time the ghost infant hid the ball. Later, she stopped hiding the ball. When it was time to hit the ball, she hit it for a while. She refused to admit defeat and wanted to continue hiding the ball. In the end, she still lost.
"One more time, and then I'm going home, and this time don't put the ball on it, I can't climb up.”
Tiantian said in a childish voice.
Ghost Baby always hid the ball at a very high place or in a corner that she couldn't reach. It was impossible for her to find it that way, so she made this request this time.
Hearing this.
Ghost Baby looked at Tiantian's serious expression and nodded.
Then it went to hide the ball.
This time, it hid the ball in the bucket, and Tiantian quickly found it.
"Wah ~~" Tiantian shouted happily."Found it, found it."”
"Hehe, I finally found one.”
She looked at the ghost baby." Little White, let's not play with the hidden ball anymore. Let's play with something else. I can bring the toys that Mom bought for me."”
Tiantian said after she was done being happy. She didn't understand the word 'unfair win', but she instinctively felt that the result of her win was very weak. She didn't let Xiaobai use all its abilities, so she didn't plan to play such a biased game. Although she lost several times, she was still very happy because she won once.
"Xiao Bai? Xi 'er doesn't have this name."
At this moment, a gentle chuckle was heard.
Hearing this, Tiantian looked back.
A familiar slender figure appeared in front of her. A black, red-striped, ancient-style robe embellished with golden patterns attracted her attention. At the same time, there was a gentle smile that made Tiantian feel close.
"Uncle!"
When Tiantian saw this figure, her small face was filled with joy.
After hearing the report of the patrol in his territory, An Yuanyuan thought of the ghost infant playing outside and decided to come over to take a look.
When she came over, she happened to hear Tiantian call Xi 'er Xiaobai.
Regarding this.
An Shiyuan found it funny, but he also knew why Tiantian would do that. The ghost infant couldn't speak. It was a very special source ghost, so he couldn't tell Tiantian her name.
"Is Xiao Bai called Xi 'er?" Tiantian walked over and said in a childish voice when she heard An Yuyuan.
An Shiyuan nodded with a smile.
He looked at Ghost Baby, who was standing there, and then looked at Tiantian, who was squatting down." Your name is Tiantian, right?"”
"Uncle knows my name?"
"I know." An Shiyuan smiled and nodded.
Then, he looked at Tiantian and said gently," Tiantian, thank you for being friends with my Xi 'er.”
Tiantian blinked innocently." Why should Uncle thank Tiantian? Xi 'er is Tiantian's first friend. Tiantian is very happy to be friends with Xi' er.”
Hearing this.
An Yanyuan was stunned for a moment before he smiled brightly and rubbed Tiantian's little head.
"Tiantian is right. There's no need to thank me.”
Then, Tiantian remembered something her grandmother had taught her last night. She bowed to An Yuyuan and thanked him for helping her cure her physical illness.
Grandma said that if she saw the uncle who saved her, she had to thank him seriously. Tiantian heard and remembered Grandma's words.
After doing all this.
Tiantian's face was filled with joy.
"Xi 'er, I'm going back. Mom is busy and doesn't have time. I asked Grandma to bring me here to play with you.”
When Ghost Baby heard this, he looked up at An Yanyuan and tugged at the corner of An Yanyuan's ancient robe.
This action surprised Tiantian.
The next moment, the ghost baby disappeared from where it was. When it reappeared, it was holding a small ball in its small hand and a small wooden token in its other hand.
This small wooden token was the small wooden token he had refined.
The ghost infant looked up at An Yuyuan with the wooden token in hand and tugged at the corner of An Yuyuan's clothes. The little hand missed the wooden token and it fell to the ground. It bent down to pick it up and looked up at An Yuyuan again.
Looking at Ghost Baby's actions, An Yanyuan chuckled.
"You want to give a wooden token to Tiantian?”Others might not understand what Ghost Baby was trying to say, but he did.
Ghost Baby nodded slowly.
"Sure."
An Shiyuan didn't disagree.
He understood why Ghost Baby wanted to give Tiantian the wooden token.
Not long ago, when he was refining the small wooden token, Ghost Baby stood by the side and watched quietly. It knew the wonderful use of this thing, so it wanted to give Tiantian a small wooden token. That way, it would be easy for Tiantian to find it. It wouldn't say that when Tiantian came, it didn't hear it and didn't appear.
"You can give it to me, but your contact wooden token needs to be changed. It can't be connected to the messenger of death's contact wooden token.”An Shiyuan tapped the small wooden token lightly.
The small wooden token trembled slightly and then slowly shrank into a small wooden token that was easy for children to pick up and put down.
"From now on, they will be your little communication wooden tokens.”
An Shiyuan rubbed Ghost Baby's head.
The purpose of the wooden token was to allow the messengers of death to communicate with each other. The wooden token given to Tiantian now naturally could not be this kind of wooden token. He made some changes to make these two wooden tokens become the exclusive communication wooden tokens of Ghost Baby and Tiantian. They belonged to the wooden tokens used by the two to communicate and had no connection with the wooden token of the messengers of death.
"Thank you, Uncle, Xi 'er."
Tiantian looked at the small wooden token in her hand curiously and learned the function of this thing.
Then, she put the small wooden token in her small pocket and left.
An Shiyuan looked at Tiantian's departing figure.
"What a sensible child." He smiled and disappeared with Ghost Baby.
……
City God Temple courtyard.
Zhang Li looked at Tiantian's figure and a smile instantly blossomed on her face.
"Did Tiantian have fun?"
"I'm happy."
Zhang Li opened her mouth, wanting to ask what they had played and how they had played it. However, when she thought about it, if it was really…them, or him, or those existences in her imagination, her words reached her throat and she could not say them out.
Tiantian had already said that she was 'afraid of strangers' and did not want her to follow them. Did this mean that he (they) minded?
Zhang Li shook her head in her heart.
Sometimes, it wasn't better to know things as clearly as possible.
She did not plan to ask. Instead, she took the bus to the mall with Tiantian to buy a few clothes for her.
Zhang Li, who was heading to the bus stop, was happy to see Tiantian smiling all the way.
They talked and laughed along the way.
"Tiantian, Mommy will bring you here to play next time. But sometimes, Mommy doesn't have time.”
"Okay, hehe, Mommy is the best!”
"Hahaha, Tiantian too. It seems that Tiantian likes to come here to play. In that case, I'll bring you here when I'm free in the future.”
"Yes, right, Mom, I saw that uncle just now.”
“……”
Zhang Li stopped in her tracks and was stunned.
The next moment, she widened her eyes and looked down at Tiantian, who was smiling happily and looking up at her.
……
At the mall.
Yan Liangpeng was smoking a cigarette as he dragged a beautiful female companion to the clothing area on the third floor.
Yan Liangpeng had heavy dark circles under his eyes. If this was not the case, he looked rather handsome. He had a short, flat hairstyle, which was considered a more attractive appearance for girls.
"My good friend, are you really going to take me to buy LV bags?”
the beautiful female companion said with a smile.
She met Yan Liangpeng at a bar. At that time, Yan Liangpeng took the initiative to hit on her.
She did not reject this.
She had known Yan Liangpeng for more than a year. After knowing him for a long time, she also knew Yan Liangpeng's income situation. He did some unknown illegal work to earn income. She was not very clear about the specifics. She only knew that it was high risk and high return.
However, although Yan Liangpeng earned a lot of money, he was a very stingy person. Therefore, when she heard that he wanted to buy her an LV bag, she was very surprised.
"You don't believe me?"
"I do, but there are conditions for you to buy me a bag, right?”
"Nonsense, why would I buy it for you if I don't have any conditions?”
"I knew it."
"Not willing?"
"Why not? It's not like I haven't slept with you before.”
The woman chuckled.
When Yan Liangpeng heard this, he revealed a smile that any man could understand at a glance.
Six years ago, he accidentally became a ghost controller and came into contact with the world of ghosts and the circle of ghost controllers.
The Ghost Controlling Bureau had invited him, but he had rejected it. He was not that stupid. The Ghost Controlling Bureau had a high income and good benefits, but in his opinion, it was useless. These were occupations that required one's life. He thought that only an idiot would do it. Therefore, he was registered as a ghost controller.
As he came into contact with the 'other side' of the world, along with some opportunities, he slowly got an opportunity to join a ghost controller organization. He often took on some missions there. Most of the missions here were illegal jobs, such as killing people, going abroad as a mercenary... There were many projects, and there was even the business of helping ghosts kill people.
Regarding this.
Yan Liangpeng didn't care. What he was interested in was the generous reward inside.
Six years had allowed him to become an extremely powerful C-class ghost controller. Soon, he was even confident that he would break through to become a B-class first-class ghost controller. This was all thanks to his ability that even ghost controllers could not achieve-Ghost Domain!
He felt that his luck was really good. He was the chosen one of this era. The evil spirits he owned were born with a ghost domain. This was the reason why he grew so quickly. With the help of the ghost domain, he perfectly dealt with many black jobs, but no one knew his identity.
This also allowed him to be highly valued and nurtured by the organization, speeding up the improvement of his strength.
Recently, he had not gone out and had been staying in his hometown, Cang City.
The reason for this wasn't because he wanted to live comfortably, but because he had accepted a new mission to investigate the City God Temple!
The commission would be based on the information obtained.
Seeing this mission, Yan Liangpeng happily accepted it. Many wild ghost controller organizations were investigating the Shing Wong Temple, but many people were afraid that the Shing Wong Temple had three ghost kings and did not dare to come.
The incident in Huaming City had long spread throughout the circle of ghost controllers in the Dragon Country, scaring many people. Including the ghost infant, there were three ghost kings in the City God Temple. Just hearing about this made people's legs tremble, and no one dared to provoke them.
Yan Liangpeng was a person who was afraid of death, but because he knew many people, he knew some rumors. As long as he didn't provoke the City God Temple, nothing would happen. Other people didn't dare to accept this mission, but he did. In addition, he had the Ghost Realm. As long as he didn't provoke them, he was naturally safe.
During this period of time, he had seen the messenger of death a few times. There was even one time when he saw the messenger of death outside Cang City in the territory of another city. Moreover, he had actually seen a malicious ghost he had seen before get killed. He immediately gave the news to the organization.
The jurisdiction of the City God Temple had expanded!
This news instantly blew up the organization, and the organization sold the news, blowing up even more ghost controller organizations.
Because he was the first to get the news, the organization gave him a generous reward.
This reward was not a one-time reward. It was a direct employment. Those who could be paid would be given a generous sum of money at regular intervals. The purpose was to keep an eye on the City God Temple in Cang City.
It was precisely because of this that he had earned a lot recently, so when he was in a good mood, he planned to find a friend to have fun with.
"Hurry up. You're so slow.”Her female companion urged her. She couldn't wait to buy a bag.
"Are you in a hurry to be…"
Yan Liangpeng spoke, but he stopped halfway.
His gaze was fixed on a young mother and daughter in a children's clothing store on the right.
"It's her." Yan Liangpeng was surprised.
Then, he looked at the little girl beside the young mother.
"That woman Zhang Li is still keeping that idiot?”……
