Lying down to the underworld starts: Oops, I’m dead

"Who dares to trespass into my Mengpo Village?"

A majestic voice came from Mengpo Manor, accompanied by a gust of wind, which blew the corners of Lin Zheng's clothes into the manor.

"Long time no see, Sanqi, you treat me like this"

As soon as Lin Zheng's voice came out, the strong wind in Mengpo Manor stopped, and a giant python swam quickly towards the door from the manor, and finally came in front of Lin Zheng and changed into a human form.

"Lin Zheng, it's you. It's really you. Long time no see."

Sanqi looked at Lin Zheng with excitement on his face, but Lin Zheng frowned when he looked at Sanqi. Sanqi was still dressed simply, just like when Lin Zheng left hundreds of years ago.

"Sanqi, why do you still seem so stupid?"

Lin Zheng was a little surprised. Logically, after Sanqi swallowed the immortality, shouldn't he have restored himself and all the previous Meng Pos to be safe and sound? How come hundreds of years have passed and he is still the same.

"You are stupid, I am the smartest person in the Eight Hundred Miles of Yellow Springs."

After hearing Sanqi's words, Lin Zheng rolled his eyes. You are the only one in this 800-li Huangquan. If there is one more person in Huangquan, you, the smartest one, will have to change ownership.

"By the way, Lin Zheng heard from Zhao Li and the others that you haven't appeared for hundreds of years. Where have you been?"

“I went to a very far place”

What Lin Zheng said was true. The world outside was very far away, and the world on the master's side and the soul ferry were indeed very far away.

"Oh, it's so far away, no wonder they couldn't find you."

Sanqi nodded and Lin Zheng stepped into Mengpo Manor. Lin Zheng looked around and found that Mengpo Manor was exactly the same as it was hundreds of years ago without any changes, not even a hint of modern style.

"Sanqi, the underworld is now pursuing modernization, but why is your Mengpo Village still the same as before?"

"No, if I change Mengpo Village, my mother won't like it. Besides, the underworld doesn't need me, Mengpo, anymore."

Sanqi looked a little depressed, but she adjusted herself in just a moment. Sanqi pulled Lin Zheng away and came to Mengpo Manor, pointing at the big pot for boiling soup.

"Look, look, my soup is ready. It smells delicious now. Do you want a bowl?"

Lin Zheng was shaking his head like a rattle as he smelled the fragrant Meng Po soup. This is Meng Po soup, how can you just drink it casually?

But how could Sanqi make Mengpo soup? Did Sanqi experience some kind of emotional tribulation? Why didn’t Li Ge tell him about this?

"Sanqi, when did you make this soup? Did you find the last ingredient?"

Lin Zheng looked at Sanqi curiously. Sanqi still looked silly and didn't look like someone who had experienced emotional torture.

"Actually, I don't know either. One day I was really, really sad. I didn't know why I was so sad. Then a tear shed. The tear fell into the soup and the soup became soup. Then I wasn't sad anymore. Until now I still don't know why I was so sad that day. It was as if I had lost something important, but I didn't lose anything."

Lin Zheng blinked after hearing Sanqi's words. What kind of situation was this? But then he remembered something and waved to Sanqi.

"Sanqi, stretch out your hand so I can see it."

Sanqi was stunned after hearing this but still obediently extended her hand to Lin Zheng. Lin Zheng held Sanqi's hand and checked Sanqi's body but found that Sanqi was still missing a spirit.

how is this possible

Wasn't the spirit of Changsheng swallowed by Sanqi? Why is there still a missing part? Could it be...

"Sanqi, do you still remember that child? The one who smelled so good."

"I remember that child was very fragrant and delicious, but I have never met anyone as fragrant as him since then."

Sanqi still had a greedy look on her face when she said this. Lin Zheng thought that Sanqi's naivety was particularly cute, but he still wanted to know why Sanqi was like this?

"Did you have any special reaction after eating it?"

"Yes, yes. After eating it, I felt particularly fragrant and full. After eating it, I didn't eat for a long time until the next time I was hungry. Ah, I remembered that time I was very sad, maybe because I was hungry."

After listening to Sanqi's words and looking at Sanqi's silly face, Lin Zheng was speechless but had a guess in his mind, but he still had to confirm this guess.

"Sanqi, after you ate that child, didn't you have any special reactions? For example, did you become smarter or more agile? Didn't something in that child merge with you?"

"Lin Zheng's kid is not a panacea. How can I become smarter or more agile after eating him? That kid is just fragrant and delicious. How can he merge with me?"

Looking at Sanqi's expression, Lin Zheng finally understood. He didn't know who was behind this. After Sanqi ate Changsheng, his essence and soul could not be integrated with Sanqi.

The consequence of not being able to merge was that the essence stayed in Sanqi's stomach for a long time without any attachment and finally dissipated. That was why Sanqi felt sad and cried, as if he had lost something.

In fact, Sanqi did lose something forever, but Sanqi didn't know it. Sanqi didn't have spirit fusion and hadn't experienced emotional setbacks, so now she still has the same appearance and mentality as hundreds of years ago.

But it’s okay this way. It’s better for Sanqi not to have the growth that comes from painful experiences. Sanqi is still so cute like this.

“I understand, Sanqi, but why has Mengpo Village become so deserted now?”

"It's not bad to be a little quiet. I like it this way. I don't have to work except making soup. I'm so happy."

Sanqi was very happy that he didn't have to work and could do his own thing. After hearing this, Lin Zheng didn't expect that Sanqi was such a person who had learned to give up, but it felt pretty good this way.

"Lin Zhengzuo, I'll take you to see it"

Sanqi dragged Lin Zheng out of Mengpo Village and came to a place where flowers were blooming everywhere, which was particularly beautiful.

"Lin Zheng, look, the Lycoris radiata that Zhao Li gave me has bloomed. I planted a lot of them in Huangquan. These are all planted by me. I come here to plant flowers when I am bored. One day, I will plant these flowers all over Huangquan."

Sanqi was laughing happily in the flowers, and Lin Zheng also laughed. The flower that Sanqi had been longing for finally bloomed, and it was indeed very beautiful.

"Sanqi, then you won't judge the evil spirits now?"

"I don't need to judge. The Hades went through a reform a few years ago. They said I couldn't keep up with the changes and stopped letting me do it. They only send some extremely evil ghosts here occasionally. They also don't let me, the evil ghost, cook, saying they want to give them some respect. I have no choice but to swallow them directly like my mother. But no matter what I do, I can't find a ghost as fragrant as that child."

Looking at Sanqi's greedy look, Lin Zheng was speechless. You really can't find it. After all, there is only one spirit.

"Not many people come to Mengpo Village now. Apart from the ghost messengers who escort the evil ghosts, only Zhao Li and his men often come to see me. Moreover, they said that Mengpo Village is my territory and I have to be solemn and not let strange ghosts in. That's why I scared you like that before. I didn't mean it."
