Wang Peng was extremely shocked.
I never imagined that the legendary Book of Life and Death would evolve with the times and become a laptop.
After the seal was registered, I turned on the computer and was able to find local personnel information.
"Name: Wang Tao, Gender: Male, Age: 92, Lifespan: 1000, Virtue: 100, Life Story: ..., Address: ... "
"Name: Liu Yu, Gender: Female, Age: 16, Lifespan: 1050, Virtue: 5, Life Story: ..., Address: ... "
After looking at many names, I noticed that the people listed all had lifespans of over a thousand years. Out of curiosity, I used the filter function and found that there wasn't a single person in the city whose lifespan had ended within the last hundred years.
Wang Peng was surprised: "Wouldn't that make our work very easy?"
In the underworld, since no one dies, there's definitely nothing to do.
"Dream on!" the trainer sneered. "We don't have that here, but there are plenty abroad. Even if the goddess Nuwa appeared, she wouldn't have given any benefits to foreigners." (afac)
Wang Peng was shocked: "We're in charge of foreign ghosts too? Wouldn't that be a waste of our energy and resources?"
"You think this is for serving other countries?" the trainer laughed. "This is for serving the six realms of reincarnation; it has its benefits. Where do you think the underworld officials' faster cultivation comes from?"
Wang Peng suddenly realized.
The others also realized what was happening.
Their thinking is still too narrow.
Now that the nation has become the center of the world, the underworld can no longer only govern its own country, but all living beings in the world.
It is even foreseeable that the country will establish a Heavenly Court in the future.
After half a day of training, everyone officially started their jobs.
Wang Peng and Li Yun activated their divine duties and entered the underworld.
I originally thought the underworld was a gloomy and desolate place, but it turns out that the underworld is just like the mortal world, except that the sun never shines.
His workplace was actually a skyscraper, brightly lit, where all the underworld personnel were holding their Book of Life and Death, typing away on their keyboards.
They are said to be ox-headed and horse-faced guardians or judges, but they are actually not much different from white-collar workers in the human world.
"This is the underworld, everyone please take a look!"
Just as everyone was in shock, a ghost messenger walked over holding a selfie stick. "The staff you see are ghost messengers and judges from the underworld."
"The computer you see is actually an evolution of the Book of Life and Death."
Wang Peng asked in shock, "You're actually live-streaming?"
The underworld official nodded and smiled, "The government has allowed some of us to do a live broadcast to broaden everyone's horizons. In the future, people won't be too afraid of the underworld, and they can report to us immediately if anything happens."
Wang Peng nodded, somewhat numb.
This underworld is completely different from what I imagined.
The unfortunate events surrounding live streaming have faded away.
"Checking one's lifespan? Sure, it costs ten yuan per check, you can do it by topping up. But there's no need..."
Li Yun snapped out of his daze, looked at Wang Peng, and said with a complicated expression, "I didn't expect that the business of checking lifespans in the underworld would be developed into something like this. They really know how to make money. Let's go, it's time for us to take up our posts."
Wang Peng nodded and walked to his work station with Li Yun.
Not long after they sat down, a ghostly figure was escorted in by underworld officials, carrying a blonde, blue-eyed girl ghost.
"I am a Bald Eagle, you can't arrest me!"
"You are already dead. This is the underworld, also known as hell in the West!"
"No, shouldn't I go to heaven?"
The girl spoke the language of eagles, yet there was no barrier to communication among the group.
This is actually a power bestowed by the clergy.
You must understand that the underworld governs the six realms, including not only humans but also other living beings. If it didn't have this ability, wouldn't it be impossible for animals and plants to understand?
After a few explanations, the girl finally understood—there is no heaven or hell in the West, only the underworld governs ghosts. She then resigned herself to her fate and cooperated with Wang Peng to complete the record-keeping work.
"Emily died at the age of 16. She died from a demonic calamity. Because she did not do anything evil, she will be reincarnated as a human in ten years. Do you have any objections?"
"Sir, I have no objection. May I ask if I can be reincarnated in the Central Plains?"
"That depends on fate. Alright, take her with you!"
Emily listened intently, and her mood immediately plummeted.
Everyone now knows that the Central Plains was the center of the world and the center of civilization.
She naturally wanted to be reincarnated in the Central Plains.
As a result, the gods of the underworld did not grant her permission, which left her feeling somewhat desperate.
If she is reincarnated abroad, wouldn't she soon die a miserable death?
In that case, it's better not to reincarnate at all!

The Underworld Livestream Room.
"I saw that the underworld official was named Wang Peng. Hmm, so the big boss isn't doing hypnosis anymore, he's become a god?"
"Pfft... Upstairs, show some respect to the gods, or the underworld messengers will come and arrest you."
"Hey upstairs, can I borrow a TV to talk? A friend of mine says he wants to watch it!"
"Your friend isn't...you, is it?"
"I'm his friend, send this privately to me!"
The staff of the underworld live stream were speechless.
These netizens really do have to drive everywhere.
Fortunately, the underworld officials are all government employees and won't hold it against them.
If this were truly a mythological world, just for this one sentence, one would lose a great deal of good karma and be punished after death.
After some playful banter, the topic finally returned to normal.
"By the way, is it possible for that foreign female ghost to be reincarnated in our country?"
"I also want to know!"
Seeing that everyone was asking normal questions, the staff of the underworld knew it was time for them to step in and immediately began to explain.
"It's highly unlikely. You all need to understand that people in our country now live for over a thousand years. With such a long lifespan, there's naturally no rush to reproduce. How many people will have children in a few hundred years?"
"That's right, sir. A thousand-year lifespan is a lot of fun, but having children now would be too much trouble."
"She's still a fifty-year-old baby, why would she have a child!"
The underworld official said, "Even if she were to be born, the probability would be very small. The conditions for being reborn in our country are very high, and this kind of opportunity is not something that ordinary people can obtain. That female ghost will most likely be reincarnated in a foreign country in ten years."
"miserable!"
"That's really tragic!"
"Although there are no more ghosts and monsters in foreign countries now, demons have risen up. If she is reincarnated in a foreign country, she may soon be reporting to the underworld again."
"Sir, what conditions are required for someone to be reincarnated in our country?"
The ghost messenger said, "First, ghosts from our country have priority; second, they must have a virtue of 50 or more. We have now found the ghosts who died in the previous demonic calamity, and they will now line up to be reincarnated in our country. Of course, the timing is uncertain, after all, there aren't many people in the human world who want to have children these days."
"It's not fair!"
"Why can't foreign ghosts be reincarnated in the Central Plains?!"
"Aren't we also ghosts in the underworld after we die?"
"Yeah yeah."
A large number of comments floated across the screen.
Just by looking at the content, you can tell it was posted by a foreign netizen.
"This is a benefit of our country! If you're so capable, why don't you go and take charge of the underworld?"
"That's right, this is a blessing from the Goddess Houtu, she's a deity of our country!"
With the rise of live streams from the underworld, the human world has been in an uproar.
The people of the Central Plains were overjoyed.
After all, having the underworld under one's own control brings all sorts of unexpected benefits, something that's something you can't ask for.
Foreigners, however, were quite disappointed.
There is no hell or heaven in foreign countries; after death, one is subject to the rule of the underworld.
More importantly, even when they are reincarnated, they can only be reborn in their own country.
In the past, this would naturally be a good thing.
They are a developed country, and their welfare benefits are quite good.
