“The furniture can be arranged later, no rush. Now let me tell you about my business.”
Yun Guyuan looked around and pulled Yi Qingqing to sit down by the covered walkway between the west wing and the main house.
“Qingqing, this might seem unbelievable, even scary, to normal people. Let me tell you a little bit first. If you’re scared, I won’t mention these things to you again. But don’t worry, what I’ve done won’t affect you in the slightest. Please don’t think of me as a monster…”
While Yi Qingqing was listening to the beginning, she kept nodding, thinking to herself: Don’t underestimate her courage.
But why was Ah Yuan’s talk getting more and more outrageous, even involving monsters?
His expression didn’t look like he was joking!
“Ah Yuan, tell me. As long as it’s not something immoral or against the law, I won’t mind!”
Yun Guyuan nodded, his expression still heavy, and gripped her hand tightly.
“Qingqing, have you ever heard of the underworld and the Black and White Impermanence? What I do is similar to what the Black and White Impermanence do, but I’m not as powerful.”
After he finished speaking, he stared at her expression, afraid of seeing even a hint of disgust on her face.
“What? Black and White Impermanence? You’re a ghost messenger?”
Yi Qingqing’s eyes widened in disbelief. She had even considered that Ah Yuan was a reincarnated transmigrator, but she never expected that he was a ghost messenger.
Yun Guyuan nodded: “Yes. But because my lifespan hasn’t ended yet, I haven’t officially joined the ranks yet. I can only be considered an unofficial underworld official. Don’t be afraid. I’m only responsible for those evil spirits who died unnaturally and linger in the human world.”
“I’m not afraid!” Yi Qingqing shivered slightly, but her tone was excited.
“Ah Yuan, can you see ghosts?”
“I’ve had the ability to see ghosts since I was a child, and I can see spirits. It was because of this ability that I found the Underworld Token and gradually became an unofficial Underworld official. The Underworld Token is like the underworld official’s work permit.”
Yun Guyuan sensed that she was afraid, but for some reason, she didn’t seem unhappy.
“Qingqing, do you think this is unlucky?”
“No, it’s so impressive! The Underworld is a huge corporation; others can’t even dream of working there!”
Yi Qingqing moved her buttocks closer to Yun Guyuan, carefully looked around, and asked in a low voice, “Ah Yuan, this house is quite old. Is it full of ghosts?”
If so, she’d burn some gold and silver for the old ghosts in the house during the evening’s rites. Living in the same house was a kind of fate.
Yun Guyuan finally understood. She was both curious and afraid, not of herself, but of the ghosts.
“No, this place is very clean. There are no ghosts here. There are very few ghosts in the mortal world.”
“Ah? Well!”
Yi Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little regretful. If only there were some experienced people, she could learn from them how to restore this old house to its antique charm.
However, without the ghosts around, Yi Qingqing felt much more at ease. She stopped muttering and stopped squeezing in Yun Guyuan’s seat.
But she was still curious: “Ah Yuan, today is the Ghost Festival. Shouldn’t there be a lot of ghosts?”
“After nightfall, the gates of hell open wide, and the number of ghosts increases. However, ghosts walk the path of the underworld, separated from the living world, so it is difficult for them to have any impact on the mortal world. Don’t be afraid.” Yun Guyuan said with a smile in his eyes.
She really didn’t object to him being a ghost messenger or being able to see ghosts, even though she was a little afraid of ghosts.
“I’m not afraid!” Yi Qingqing emphasized again.
She had even been a ghost and seen ghosts in the underworld, so how could she be afraid of ghosts?
At most, it was because she couldn’t see these things now and was worried about being powerless to fight back if she was hurt. That was just a lack of security, not fear!
