The disciple of Yue Lao

Chapter 58: The Ghostly Granny's Underworld Mall
A few days later, Luo Fan received another message and several photos from Xia Yu.

This time, Xia Yu’s message said that Luo Fan’s destined person was called Bai Zhi.

During working hours, Luo Fan sat next to his desk and stared at the name "Bai Zhi" on the mobile phone screen for a while.

Isn’t it Xia Yu?
Luo Fan felt a sense of loss.

I swiped my finger up to look at the photos sent by Xia Yu. The photos showed Xia Yu's room in {Gardenia Palace}, the marriage tree in the yard, and some conceited selfies.

Xia Yu is so beautiful in ancient costume!

When Luo Fan saw Xia Yu in a red gauze dress, his heart was filled with ripples.

It turns out that heaven is really a fairyland, and the fairies are really fairy-like.

The fact that he can send messages and photos means that Xia Yu now has internet access.

Luo Fan quickly sent two messages to Xia Yu. The first one was: Your selfie is really beautiful. You are indeed a fairy! The second one was: Da Huang misses you. When will you come back? If you must have a mission to come down to earth, I can help you.

"Brother Fan!" Zhou Hai saw Luo Fan concentrating on sending messages, so he suddenly appeared and called him, saying with a smile: "If you play with your phone during work hours, be careful or I will report you to Manager Liu!"

"I don't know who it is. He is hiding in the bathroom early in the morning to make a video call with his girlfriend. Do you think Manager Liu will be very interested in their conversation?" Luo Fan replied.

As soon as Zhou Hai appeared, Luo Fan quickly turned his phone to a black screen and put it back in his pocket, pretending to just check the time.

Damn it, how did Brother Fan hear it?

When I was video chatting with Dongdong, I said a lot of bad things about Manager Liu... If he knew about this, I would lose my salary for this month, right?

"Ahem... misunderstanding, misunderstanding..." Zhou Hai kept apologizing for his behavior just now. He approached Luo Fan and asked curiously, "Brother Fan, Mei Xiayu has been gone for several months. When will she come back?"

Luo Fan picked up a pile of documents from his desk, turned and walked towards the office of General Manager Lan Shaohua, saying, "I don't know."

……

[Underworld]

After being driven back to the underworld by Li Jian, Yan Lan has been harboring hatred and always wanted to find a way to take revenge.

However, in order not to reveal his identity, revenge was temporarily put on hold.

On Yan Lan’s first day in the mortal world, Xia Yu easily discovered her identity because she was filled with too much yin energy.

In order to stay in the mortal world for a long time without being discovered by the King of Hell, Yan Lan bought a "rebirth bell" from the ghost woman in the underworld.

The "Rebirth Bell" is a small golden bell. Yan Lan hangs it around her waist. Its "vitality" covers her "yin energy", making it impossible for the ghosts in the underworld to detect Yan Lan's whereabouts.

To put it simply, the "Bell of Rebirth" covered up the negative energy around Yan Lan, creating the illusion that "Yan Lan is a human being", but there is no such person in the King of Hell's Book of Life and Death.

The "Rebirth Bell" makes a sound, and Yan Lan can use magic to block its sound so that no one can find her, except the gods.

(Note: The Rebirth Bell has no effect on immortals. Immortals can see it and feel the negative energy of ghosts as usual. However, for someone with such ordinary cultivation as Xia Yu, Yan Lan cast a spell and she could not see the Rebirth Bell or hear its sound.)
Ever since Xia Yu returned to heaven, Yan Lan has been wearing the "Rebirth Bell" every day. She thought that everything was finally "safe and sound", but who knew that Li Jian would show up and ruin her plans.

……

The ghost grandma is a person who only recognizes "money" and not "ghosts". As long as the money is enough, she dares to sell anything.

It is well known in the underworld that although the ghost grandma has a rather gloomy personality and black curly hair, she looks young and beautiful.

This is all thanks to the magical potions developed by the ghost grandmother. It is easy to turn white hair into black and an old face back to that of a man in his twenties.

The ghost lady is not much younger than the King of Hell. She has been selling things in the underworld since it was built.

At first, just like Meng Po, she just set up a small stall, but later the business became better and better, and it became a big mall. The underworld is actually the same as the mortal world, with everything you need, the only difference is that ghosts don't go shopping, don't date, and don't gather together.

Moreover, only the ghosts who work in the underworld can move freely. Ghosts like those who are tortured in the Eighteen Layers of Hell and the Forgotten River have no chance to experience the good life in the underworld.

Yan Lan promised the King of Hell that she would never go to the mortal world to disturb Yue Yang's reincarnation, so the King of Hell lifted her house arrest.

But Yan Lan agreed on the surface, but secretly kept trying to find ways to secretly go to the mortal world to accompany Lan Tian.

Yan Lan didn't want Lan Tian to be hospitalized. After all, if a person died from the evil spirit of a ghost, the King of Hell would investigate the matter thoroughly.

Yan Lan came to the ghost lady's big shopping mall again, ready to buy another potion that could protect mortals from harm by negative energy.

As long as her yin energy no longer erodes Lan Tian's yang energy, she can always stay by Lan Tian's side.

"Princess?"

The intern Wang Er walked out of the mall dejectedly and happened to meet Yan Lan. He smiled and said, "Are you here to buy something too?"

"Yeah." Yan Lan nodded. Seeing that Wang Er didn't buy anything, she asked, "You came out empty-handed. Didn't you find anything you like?"

Wang Er smiled bitterly for a while. He wanted to buy everything, but he didn’t have enough money!

How much is his monthly internship salary? Ten thousand ghost coins.

In the ghost lady’s mall, the cheapest “potion” is 8.2 million ghost banknotes.

From Wang Er's embarrassed expression, Yan Lan seemed to know why he had nothing in his hands.

"Princess..." Wang Er suddenly remembered something, smiled and pulled Yan Lan aside, whispering: "Have you been to the mortal world recently?"

"You should go." Yan Lan replied.

Wang Er spoke even more quietly: "Then... can I ask the princess for a favor?"

Wang Er played an indispensable role in finding Yue Yang's reincarnation. Yan Lan never wanted to owe anyone a favor, so she immediately asked, "What favor?"

"The underworld is not like the mortal world. There is no internet and no mobile phones, and the time after get off work is too boring. There is a magic weapon that looks like a mirror in the ghost lady's mall. It is said that the magic weapon has recorded many popular TV dramas in the mortal world. This magic weapon can not only be used as a mirror, but also can be used to search and watch popular TV dramas in the mortal world at the same time." Wang Er became more and more excited as he spoke, as if he had already bought the magic weapon.

"Not enough money?" Yan Lan asked knowingly.

"It's impossible to do it with my internship salary." Wang Er said, and suddenly laughed: "But if my relatives in the mortal world burn some paper money for me, it will be easier."

"So, you want me to help you tell your relatives in the mortal world?" Yan Lan asked again.

Wang Er nodded frantically and said, "Yes, yes, yes. I am just an intern ghost now. I am not allowed to leave the underworld without reason, let alone go to the mortal world."

After hearing this, Yan Lan said, "You can tell them in your dreams! Wouldn't that be faster than me telling them?"

Wang Er looked at Yan Lan a little embarrassed and explained, "I tried a few times, but as a novice ghost, I haven't mastered the magic well, so I can't enter their dreams."

"..." Yan Lan was speechless for a while, and agreed: "Okay!"

"Really?" Wang Er was extremely excited and quickly added, "No. 211, Gouweiba Hutong, Xinghua Village, Neon City. This is my home address. My father's name is Wang Dazhuang and my mother's name is Li Lanying."

"Got it." Yan Lan agreed and turned to walk into the shopping mall.

Time waits for no one, and Yan Lan cannot wait either. She is eager to see Lan Tian again.
