Quick Wear: No one can stop me from extending the life of the male supporting role
Chapter 54: Miscellaneous Matters in the Underworld
After ending his life as an emperor and returning to the underworld, Lu Changning came to the Forgotten River and stared at the dead souls coming and going.
I wonder if Qiu Yue will come to this place after his death? If I stand here, can I see him again? I promised to wait for him before I died, so he will come.
Xiao Hong came over happily after receiving her reward: "Lu Changning, you're back! What are you doing here?"
Lu Changning stared ahead, not wanting to miss a passerby: "I was thinking, in fact, life is pretty hard. You want to love but can't. Regret is the norm in life. It's really hard for a destined couple to achieve a happy ending. Not only do they have to endure the blows of the environment, but they also have to go through the test of birth, aging, sickness and death. If they're not careful, everything will fail."
If only he could live longer, maybe he could accompany Qiu Yue for a longer distance.
Xiao Hong saw that Lu Changning looked troubled and said, "Why are you so weird? How come you became a philosopher after coming back from the small world? Could it be that the sincere and beautiful relationship between the Regent and the hero has stimulated you?"
In the last world, Xiao Hong was anxious to go back and redeem the reward with the system, so she left early, so she didn't know that they had made a mistake. Thinking of Qiu Yue's collapsed face before his death, Lu Changning put his hand to his chest. There was obviously no heart beating there, but why did it still hurt?
Seeing Lu Changning's expression, Xiao Hong said in surprise: "Are you in love? Let me tell you, it is unjust for a god to be in love."
Lu Changning laughed at himself: "What kind of god am I?"
Xiao Hong extended her roots and patted his shoulder: "Although we are still a long way from being included in the immortal class, our life span is comparable to that of the gods. Lu Changning, listen to my advice, when you travel in the human world, just experience it and never fall in love. Otherwise, you will definitely suffer."
Lu Changning sighed, "I know. Their life span is only a few decades. With the end of life, all traces of love will disappear along with the body. But we are different. The traces exist and will follow us forever."
Xiao Hong felt a little relieved when she heard Lu Changning say this, but there are too many people who die for love every year, so he still has to remind him: "Although there are six reincarnations, once you drink Mengpo soup and walk across the Naihe Bridge, you will lose all your memories and traces. Is this brand new soul still the person you once knew? No. Even if it is the same soul reincarnated, they are two completely different people. Xiao Lu, you must not ask for trouble."
Lu Changning stood up suddenly from the ground: "Don't worry, I know the seriousness of the matter. I just came back from the last world and I have some emotions that I haven't digested yet. I will let go after I fulfill my promise to him."
Xiao Hong carefully looked through the rewards she received and handed over the portion that belonged to Lu Changning: "It's good that you can figure it out. Here, it's your five years of incense. That's the benefit that the system gave us."
The moment Lu Changning picked up the incense, the power disappeared into his body.
Xiao Hong looked at Lu Changning happily: "How is it? Do you feel the endless power in your body? This is five years of incense in a small world, which is enough for a low-level ghost to upgrade."
Lu Changning looked at his soul and said, "I can't feel anything."
"What? You can't even feel such a huge power? After I got it, my skills increased a lot. Can you feel it again?"
Lu Changning jumped up and tried, but still shook his head: "I just felt a warm current when the incense was absorbed into my soul, and then I felt nothing."
Xiao Hong touched her chin, feeling incredible. "How could this happen? Could it be that your infamy attribute was activated, so the two canceled each other out? That's right, it must be like this. Oh, then you worked in vain, didn't you? Poor Lu Changning, if you had known this would happen, you might as well have given me the incense directly."
Lu Changning wanted to say that he had not lost his country, let alone left a bad reputation for eternity. But why couldn't the incense feel it? He didn't know, maybe it was expired, or maybe the weight of his soul was too heavy, so he couldn't feel it.
"Xiao Hong, I'm going to collect the reward for this mission. Please help me look after Qiu Yue here. I'll be back soon."
"Even though this person is dead, the love is still there." Seeing Lu Changning leave, Xiaohong was happy to appreciate the incense flower that she had just bloomed. Over there, Meng Po looked over while she was boiling soup: "Xiaohong, you have been getting close to this ghost messenger recently."
Xiao Hong quickly hid the flowers: "Lu Changning, he is quite stupid."
Meng Po stirred the cauldron in front of her and said, "This soul is also strange. It has been wandering here for so many years, but it can't cross the Naihe Bridge. What's even more bizarre is that there is no information about him in the Book of Life and Death."
Xiao Hong wondered, "Wasn't he a tree in his previous life? He was killed by lightning, why can't we find out?"
Meng Po shook her head: "This is only his one life, but his previous experiences seem to be covered by something and cannot be seen at all. Nowadays, every soul has reincarnated thousands of times, but there are very few like him who have only one life. Moreover, his soul is so thick and solid, I really don't know where it came from."
Xiaohong suddenly remembered the black magic circle that Lu Changning had used before, and the system he had just captured: This guy can’t really be some big existence.
When he turned around, he saw Lu Changning running towards him with his performance report and smiling like a fool, and he was immediately relieved. With such a brain that easily gets stuck in a dead end, how could he be a great person?
"Xiaohong, you see my performance is up to standard, and I have been rewarded with a hundred years of incense."
Xiao Hong, who had been calm just now, lost her composure when she heard this and immediately went berserk: "What? A hundred years? Is this how much money a ghost messenger can make now? Those heartless people who cry poor to me every day, their salary is worth a hundred years of incense?"
Lu Changning hid the incense he had just received into his body. These were the common currencies in the underworld. Not only could they be used to improve one's cultivation, but they could also be used to trade things with others.
"Well, this is my first time getting paid, and I don't know their situation."
Xiao Hong cried even more miserably: "The first time I got paid is for a hundred years? I thought I was doing my job conscientiously and devotedly, and contributed to the beautification of the underworld. But they are such a heartless bunch, they didn't give me a penny! A hundred years, their salary is a hundred years of incense? When I was still secretly happy for five years of incense, they each got a hundred years?"
Lu Changning silently reminded: "Not everyone has a hundred years."
Xiaohong stopped collapsing and looked at Lu Changning, waiting for his next words.
Lu Changning: "I'm a newcomer, and I'll get a hundred years of salary for the first time. They are all veteran employees of the underworld, so they must have more."
Xiaohong:......
"That's enough. I'm done with this. I want to be recruited and get paid. Otherwise, I'll make sure there are no flowers to admire and no fragrance to smell in this underworld."
