Let's walk together for the rest of our lives. If the host says to leave, she will leave.

Xu Yanqing didn't need Gu Ling's answer. He just kept talking to himself, "Because you are the reincarnation of General Anping, you approached me and protected me. Were you very disappointed when you saw me? Someone like Prime Minister Xu was actually reincarnated into someone like me, huh!"

He smiled self-deprecatingly, slowly raised his hand and took off the green jade hairpin that Gu Ling used to fix his hair. The jet-black hair fell into the water, and some of it mixed with Xu Yanqing's hair, like ink spreading in the water.

He used a jade hairpin to lift a strand of Gu Ling's hair and said in a bewitching tone, "I have two memories now. Is it the modern Xu Yanqing who awakened Xu Xiang's memory, or is it Xu Xiang who accidentally traveled through time and possessed the modern Xu Yanqing's memory? Guess?"

He said he wanted Gu Ling to guess, but in fact he wanted Gu Ling to make a choice between him and Xu Xiang.

"I choose……"

Xu Yanqing held his breath nervously. His mind told him that Gu Ling would definitely choose Xu Xiang, but emotionally he hoped that Gu Ling would choose him.

Gu Ling smiled maliciously, like a mischievous prankster: "I choose to ask you a question."

Taking advantage of Xu Yanqing's confused look, Gu Ling asked her question without pausing: "Am I Gu Ling or General Anping?"

"Gu Ling." Xu Yanqing, whose mouth was faster than his brain, had already given the answer.

Gu Ling's smile deepened, and his tone softened unconsciously: "You know I'm Gu Ling, so I also know you're Xu Yanqing, the one who's afraid of ghosts, sensitive, and unconfident."

"Xu Yanqing, I'm here for you."

Xu Yanqing looked at her in a daze. Gu Ling continued, "Protecting Prime Minister Xu is the mission given to me by General Anping. I will give the mission target a treasure that is enough to protect him, but I will not give him a doll that has no protective function. I will ensure the safety of the mission target, but I will not take him to watch the fireworks, nor will I..."

What can't you do?

The burning kiss blocked Xu Yanqing's words before he could ask them. He was pushed against the edge of the pool and kissed. The water in the pool swayed slightly, creating ripples.

The long hair of the two people was pushed and tangled by the shaking pool water. The green jade hairpin in Xu Yanqing's hand fell into the hot spring pool and fell silently to a deeper place. His hand was interlocked with the other hand, and the slightly raised blue veins on the back of his white hand were clearly visible.

The clasped hands tightened inch by inch, and the intermittent breath was sometimes long and sometimes short. The scene in front of him seemed to be covered with a veil, hazy and unclear.

The steaming mist half-covered the pool of spring scenery. A hot tear rolled down from the corner of Xu Yanqing's eye and quietly merged into the pool.

It turns out that Xu Yanqing has always been the one chosen by Gu Ling unwaveringly.

Xu Yanqing, just Xu Yanqing.

Only.

……

basement.

After the lustful and daring Gu Ling kissed the man, her senses finally returned. She sat there restlessly, tugging at her clothes, thinking about how to explain the incident.

Are you tempted by beauty and can't help yourself?

No, no, that's not reserved.

You are so beautiful. I want to date you?

It seems a bit superficial.

As the saying goes, dating without the purpose of getting married is just hooliganism, so she should...

"Gu Ling?" Xu Yan woke up. As soon as he sat up, his eyes immediately fell on the non-human that suddenly appeared behind Gu Ling.

The ghost catcher fell silent when he saw the two familiar faces. No wonder Yan Chu became the Ghost King. It was not surprising at all with these two around.

Gu Ling followed Xu Yanqing's gaze and looked at him, and immediately smiled: "Hey, isn't this Mr. Ghost Messenger! I just happened to have something to talk to you about."

The ghost officer bowed and said, "I still have to catch the wanted criminal. If Master Gu has something to do, it would be best to find another ghost officer."

The Heavenly Master catches ghosts and, to some extent, is an ally of the Underworld. The Underworld is very kind to the powerful Heavenly Master.

As Gu Ling, who has been at the forefront of catching ghosts for many years, she has become familiar with the ghost messengers who connect the underworld with the human world, and their relationship is pretty good.

However, with Gu Ling's thick-skinned and sociable personality, he can make even a moderately familiar relationship as perfect as possible.

Gu Ling: "Don't you want to know how Yan Chu became the Ghost King?"

Gu Ling was about to step forward and have a cordial and friendly conversation with the ghost, but his sleeve was firmly grasped by Xu Yanqing. Gu Ling looked back at him, and the two of them were in a stalemate for a few seconds before Xu Yanqing finally let go of his hand.

However, the next moment, Gu Ling held his hand and raised it to signal the ghost: "Yan Chu absorbed the resentment from my fiancé, and that's why he became the ghost king."

Fiancé?

Xu Yanqing frowned, his face full of confusion.

Gu Ling continued, "It's a bit strange. The resentment of an ordinary person can actually support a ghost king. The resentment is so strong that people who don't know would think that half of the resentment in the underworld is on him."

The ghost's face froze: "Haha, how is this possible? Master Gu, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

The ghost made a gesture and didn't move.

Ghost Messenger: “…” It’s incredible. This man can now restrict the actions of the Ghost Messenger. He said that she shouldn’t be given too high a talent!

Gu Ling threw the green jade hairpin into the air and then it fell back into his hand, and he repeated this process over and over again. Every time he repeated the action, the ghost's power would be weakened a little.

He looked at Gu Ling in fear and trepidation, but finally he could not bear the pressure anymore and slowly told him the whole story.

Thousands of years ago, the world was in chaos, wars were everywhere, the land was full of starving people, and people were living in misery. Countless people died every day.

The souls of the dead poured into the underworld, and most of them held strong resentments due to the cruel experiences they had in their lifetime.

The reincarnated soul needs to get rid of the resentment, which will be completely consumed in the Forgotten River, but——

Because too many souls poured into the underworld, the human world was busy with wars, resulting in countless casualties. The people had no harvest and had to eat their own children. How could they have children?

One carrot one hole, no one has children, so the soul can't be reincarnated, and can only stay in the underworld. The Wangchuan River can't absorb too much resentment, and the ghosts tainted with resentment will cause chaos in the underworld. During that period, the workload of the underworld increased sharply.

It was at this time that, because it was impossible to feed too many people during the war, Anping massacred 100,000 prisoners with the tacit approval of Prime Minister Xu.

My goodness, the mess in the underworld has not been resolved yet, and now it has received more than 100,000 resentful souls.

These souls are different from ordinary people. They are soldiers who have been on the battlefield. They are filled with blood, murderous intent, and resentment. They can be called human killing weapons.

During that time, the ghost messenger in the underworld worked overtime so hard that he wanted to die on the spot.

The evil spirits suppressed deep in the underworld seized the opportunity to escape, causing chaos and adding more trouble to the chaos.

Not long after, Anping and Xu Xiang's souls also entered the underworld.

Although more than 100,000 people died because of them, they also protected the people of their country. In particular, the many policies promulgated by Prime Minister Xu saved many people and left many valuable experiences for future generations.

When the merits and sins are added and subtracted, in the end the merits are greater.
