I am a ghost messenger, why do I need a long life?

Wang Ben just came back from catching ghosts in the human world.

The Styx changed its course, and Mu Linjiang broke into the underworld, fighting his way from outside the main city to the gate of Tongpan Mansion. They even entered the Yellow Springs and asked Meng Po for help.

From the beginning to the end, he missed all the good stuff...

Just when he was feeling extremely regretful, he suddenly heard something.

Outside the main city of Yinting, the passages between the two worlds were wide open, and hordes of ghosts poured into Yinting, making people even more confused.

What year is this eve?

Why do strange things keep happening?

"Where's Xu An..."

Being asked this question suddenly by a colleague.

Wang Ben was stunned at first and was about to say he didn't know, but when he looked around, he found that his new brother was nowhere to be seen.

Isn’t Mu Linjiang the one who brought him back to Yinting?

Could it be that on the way into the underworld, the woman beat him to death?

Subconsciously, he pronounced the other person's name.

"Who? The new guy...?"

Next to them, the other ghost messengers pricked up their ears. After hearing this, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on their ghost faces, and then they laughed out loud.

"Old Wang, have you gone crazy catching ghosts?"

"He's a newcomer. Not to mention whether he can defeat those obsessed ghosts, just based on what he did today, he will not have a good ending."

"That's right. As a ghost messenger, letting a mortal cultivator into the ghost court without permission is a serious crime. If things go wrong, the judge will blame you, and you won't even be able to wear your official uniform anymore."

Wang Ben looked at this group of snobs with such sarcastic and mean looks, and thought that it was a bit wrong for him to abandon Xu An at that time.

He hesitated and said:

"That's not the case. I think he has a lot of strengths."

"If he could grow something, he should show up immediately and apologize to the judge. Why is he hiding and still not showing up..."

"In my opinion, he is afraid of committing a crime, so he found a place to hide."

"Ahem, we are all colleagues, so let's be kind."

There are hundreds of kinds of people and thousands of kinds of ghosts.

Although they are all ghosts, their attitudes towards being ghosts cannot be generalized.

Just as they were talking and discussing.

The passage connecting the two worlds finally stopped after nearly ten thousand lonely souls walked out and filled the entire open space in front of the main city.

After discovering that there were no ghosts inside and continuing to walk out, the group of ghosts watching immediately stretched their necks and widened their eyes, waiting for the culprit of all this to appear.

Even the Impermanence of Orders, the Yin Army Generals, and the Ox-Head and Horse-Face stood up.

As time passed, after a few breaths, a figure wearing the official uniform of a ghost messenger, with a slender figure, holding a jade slip and a soul-beating whip, walked out of the passage.

Xu An had just returned from the human world.

Now, all he could think about was that Mu Linjiang was gone, so he had to quickly complete the mission, work hard to become stronger, gain a foothold in the underworld, and then become a god in the human world, and so on.

If you think too much, you will lose your focus.

It was not until he stood on the underworld and looked at the dark mass of ghosts blocking his way that he reacted and looked up suddenly.

The next moment, he discovered that the entire Yinting main city was brightly lit.

On the city wall, there were countless old ghosts, little ghosts, innate male ghosts, as well as the ghost soldiers from all directions who followed orders at random, a large number of cattle and horses, and colleagues who were also ghost messengers, all of whom were here, staring at him.

That look revealed three parts of surprise, four parts of astonishment, two parts of disbelief, and one part of admiration.

It looks like a fan-shaped graph.

Xu An felt uneasy being stared at. He shrank his neck and saw that they had no intention of looking away. He could only bite the bullet and speak:

"Everyone, why aren't you sleeping so late?"

"I'm gonna sleep on your grandma's legs!"

Under the tea shed, the captain of the Yin soldiers who had been knocked down when he tried to stop Mu Linjiang could no longer endure it. He slammed the table and stood up, angrily saying:

"Xu An! Why is it you again?"

Why can't it be me?

Xu An blinked his eyes. He almost lost his life in the world of the living, and it was with great difficulty that he caught so many ghosts.

The boss didn't say a single good word and even slammed the table at me?

Being a ghost, at least you have some human rights, right?

He complained in his heart, but on the surface, Xu An couldn't say it out loud. He asked with a puzzled look on his face:

"Why do you say that, sir? Couldn't it be me?"

The captain of the ghost soldiers choked suddenly, and the whole ghost was shaking slightly.

It’s not because of kidney deficiency, but because of anger!

So infuriating.

The last time this guy went out, he got beaten up for no reason.

He accepted being beaten by Mu Linjiang, saying that it was because of his lack of strength.

But this time he appeared, it was clear that he came to capture Xu An.

I was waiting here like a stupid ghost for a long time, and it turned out to be this bastard who brought back all the ghosts.

At this moment, are you still pretending to be stupid in front of him?

This is simply unreasonable!

He wanted to explode, but no matter how fast his mind raced, he couldn't find an excuse, so he could only hold his anger inside.

"Tongpan, are we still going to arrest him?"

Niuma watched the situation develop in a direction he had never expected. He couldn't help but reach out and touch his horns, feeling a little itchy on his head.

Could it be that he needs to grow a brain?

"Catch the ass!"

The leading Yin soldier general was immediately furious.

If Xu An came back alone.

Then they could not help but say goodbye and immediately arrest him and make him take the blame under the pretext of dereliction of duty.

But now, in front of the ghosts all over the city.

Xu An captured tens of thousands of wandering ghosts at one time.

What is this called?

This is a role model for many Yincha, the ghost hero in the entire main city!

It would be great if we could take down this guy who is so dedicated and has such outstanding performance.

Not to mention the rumors, the impact and nature are both extremely bad.

In the underworld, which ghost will still work hard?

Only a few thousand dollars a month, why risk your life? Didn’t you see what happened to Xu An?

At the thought of this situation happening, the Yinbing general felt a headache, rubbed his head and began to look for the next person to take the blame.

And in the field, the atmosphere has changed rapidly.

The ghosts who were originally discussing the matter, after a brief silence and surprise, suddenly turned to complimenting Xu An.

The Yin Court has always had a precedent of rewarding people according to their merits.

Even if a ghost messenger performs outstandingly in catching ghosts, he will be commended and receive substantial rewards.

These old ghosts who had been in the underworld for many years were certain that Xu An would be promoted at least one level the moment he saw him capture so many ghosts.

If you don’t build a good relationship with a ghost like this now, will you still have a chance in the future?

The noisy sounds in his ears did not affect Xu An's judgment.

He was thinking about the life span given by the main task, and his mind was full of thoughts about completing it as soon as possible.

Although he didn't understand why these ghosts gathered here, it didn't affect his speech.

So, seeing that Fengming Wuchang and other senior officials were there, he quickly said:

"Sir, I have been ordered to capture wandering ghosts. Now I have returned. Please take over the disposal as soon as possible..."

The generals of the Yin soldiers, the captains of the cattle and horses, and the ghost heroes of the Yin Court all looked at each other in surprise.

Take over?

Capturing tens of thousands of new ghosts at once, and taking over the head in the middle of the night?

Ghosts don’t need to sleep, right?

Just as they were each holding back their emotions and had nowhere to vent, Red Nosed Impermanence chuckled, stood up, and said:

"Xu An, you've worked hard and made great contributions. We are not qualified to make decisions on this matter involving tens of thousands of ghosts. Let's wait for the judge to come back before making a final decision!"
