I would rather betray the gods

7 PM.

Wei Long and A Gui arrived as promised.

Not wanting to arrive empty-handed, the two of them brought a lot of drinks.

Upon entering the room, the two found that the special envoy had already prepared a sumptuous meal.

It's just that there's not much hot food; most of it is still unopened, such as bagged peanuts, potato chips, and cola.

"Oh right, you guys like to drink, I forgot about that."

Yuzu glanced at the drinks they had brought.

"Doesn't the special envoy like to drink it? It's all expensive stuff."

Wei Long smiled and picked up a dozen bottles of imported wine.

"Since you like them, just put them all up. Did you bring the photos?"

"It's a pomelo," asked the pomelo.

How could I forget what the special envoy instructed me to do!

Ah Gui immediately pulled two photo booth pictures out of his pocket.

These days, selfie machines are hard to find; the two of them went to several shopping malls!

While the two of them were adding wine to the table, Yuzu placed the photo booth pictures on the corner of the table, and then inserted the extra-long incense sticks she had prepared in advance in front of the photos.

After everything was arranged properly... it resembled an altar.

this...

Perhaps the special envoy wants to settle old scores with them and wants to take them down?

Wei Long and A Gui were so frightened by what they saw that their legs trembled. They looked at each other and knelt down on the ground, begging for mercy.

Yes, they've done their share of bad things in the past, but they weren't irredeemably wicked, especially since they've both reformed now.

Well, you two are already wishing each other a Happy New Year before you've even taken out your lighters!

Yuzu glanced at them sideways and said, "Are you two exploiting a bug here, worshipping your own 'memorial portrait'?"

Upon hearing this, the two became even more certain of their suspicions, quickly adjusted their position to face the pomelo, and burst into tears.

"Stand up, you two grown men, let's see who has the longest snot running down their nose, you're both spineless."

"Don't you realize that if I wanted to take your lives, I wouldn't go through all this trouble? I could just use a spell, why bring my family here to attract the police?"

Yuzu shook her head.

The two thought it made sense, and they gradually calmed down.

"Then what about the incense offerings, the remains... and the photograph?"

Ah Gui felt a chill run down his spine when he saw what was laid out on the table, and he couldn't shake off his doubts.

Should I draw to the left or to the right?

At this moment, Youzi was drawing talismans in the air on her own. When she felt something was wrong, she slapped the stellar energy away with her hand. The scattered stellar energy turned into powder, glowing brightly.

I drew it again, but it still wasn't right.

There was nothing he could do, so he called Lao Xu via video, and it took a long time for Lao Xu to answer.

"Your signal is terrible, it's completely stuck."

Looking at Lao Xu on her phone, who kept pausing, Youzi complained.

"There's nothing we can do; it's deep in the mountains, and people won't let us install cell towers there."

Even Lao Xu's voice was intermittent and slightly incomplete.

"Let's stop talking nonsense. Look at my drawing. The incantation is out, but there's no reaction."

As she spoke, Yuzi flipped the camera and demonstrated the talisman drawing to Lao Xu again.

"You're wrong, you're taking people with you, not sending them off. So the incantation has to be changed accordingly."

"Just change the circle at the top into two overlapping '人' (person) characters."

Even on the straightest road, you still need to steer according to the road conditions. Drawing symbols is just as natural, and Old Xu skillfully pointed out the way.

Become!

Following Lao Xu's instructions, Youzi drew the symbol again, and two light symbols flashed in the air. She then used her hand gestures to make the light symbols embed themselves into Weilong and Agui's bodies respectively.

The function is the same as drawing talismans on paper, burning them, and then mixing the ashes with water for the two people to drink; the main point is convenience and speed.

Immediately, Wei Long and A Gui's consciousness became blurred.

In a daze, they only heard Yuzu say, "Stay close to me on the road and don't wander off, or you'll fall into an endless sea of ​​suffering from which you can never escape."

So, Yuzu led the two of them to the Dream Garden again.

Both landed at the wide bridgehead.

As they walked, A-Gui clung even tighter to Wei-Long's arm.

"What are you afraid of with a special envoy around!"

Wei Long glared at him, then looked up and gestured to Youzi, who was walking ahead.

"No, no, brother, look at this bridge. Could it be the Bridge of Helplessness? And look at the seven-colored dark clouds on both sides. Don't they look like yin energy?"

Ah Gui was practically saying this was hell.

Upon hearing this, Wei Long realized it was indeed true, and his initial curiosity immediately turned into fear.

Is it really as Ah Gui said, Special Envoy?

Before they could find out the truth, Wei Long stood there trembling with Ah Gui in his arms.

If you don't stay close, you two will be standing on the bridge all night. Who knows if there will be a crosswind on the bridge and blow you away!

Yuzu warned him without turning her head, too lazy to explain and unwilling to explain. After all, it was a stroke of luck for the two of them to be able to come here, a 'paradise' that many people could never reach in their lifetimes.

He also told them that no matter what they saw or heard later, they should not make a sound, but just stay by his side and give him face.

That was also the reason he brought them here.

Upon entering the pavilion, the door opened automatically, as if guided by a pomelo.

Wei Long and A Gui were stopped by the stone statues on both sides.

The sudden fall of enormous stone spears and swords startled them greatly, and their screams shattered the tranquility of the place like a turd.

"Go back and wash your pants tomorrow."

Looking at their constantly dripping crotches, Yuzu knew that their bodies on Earth had peed themselves in fright.

He then shouted, ordering the two stone statues to make way.

Inside the pavilion, the judge's bench was still packed, with only the central seat lit.

【Huh...】

A deep, muffled voice of doubt.

[Such a strong sense of unfamiliarity.]

Another female voice, as thin as a thread.

At this moment, the voices piercing their minds were so sinister and terrifying that Wei Long and A Gui felt that their very essence would be devoured by those "great ghosts" at any moment.

The two of them, one on each side, clung tightly to Yuzu's shoulders, trembling.

hiss~

Yuzu was very uncomfortable being held like that. "You two relax a bit."

"Special Envoy, I also want to relax, but..."

Wei Long abruptly stopped mid-sentence. Youzi's glare seemed to be a warning to him: "I told you not to speak, and if you do, I'll sacrifice you to them!"

[Special envoy? Hahaha!]

The demotion of the pomelo drew laughter from the audience.

It seems that the special envoy's official rank is not high in their eyes.

Ah Gui looked at Wei Long with a nervous expression.

That's why he asked the two of us to give him face?

As if realizing something, Wei Long closed his eyes in despair, cold sweat beading on his forehead as he thought of this.

This is terrible! What if they disregard the special envoy's feelings and just devour us whole? What should we do?

Ah Gui squinted and grinned.

What else can I do but serve the special envoy well, give him enough face so that those 'fierce ghosts' will have some reservations!

Having been a gang leader before, Wei Long decided to take a desperate gamble and try anything.

After exchanging glances, the two immediately started massaging Youzi's shoulders and thighs.

For some reason, a table of food and wine suddenly appeared in front of them, the very same table they had set up in the human world.

Wei Long and A Gui then realized why the snacks Youzi had prepared for drinking were still in their plastic bags; they were meant to be used here later.

"Bang!"

Wei Long didn't hesitate either, immediately using a lighter to pry open the bottle cap and handing Youzi a bottle of beer to soothe her throat.

Wow, you're pretty savvy!

Yuzu smiled contentedly and said that she would only drink beverages and not alcohol, leaving the alcoholic drinks for the two of them.

Yuzu continued to peruse the case file of her trial, with drinks and snacks readily available whenever she looked up. Another night passed, and she thoroughly enjoyed herself.

And this went on for half a month before he finally finished reading all the files.

The powerful figures who were judging him then slammed their fists on the table in frustration and decided to proceed with the next stage of the proceedings at a later date.

Without a doubt, the powerful and wealthy are only being patient because of the God-King's status and position.

At that time, they will reveal their true, ferocious nature.
