Laws of Spirit Recycling

This is the first time Yu Yan came to the campus after many years, a place that makes him feel special.

I also went to school when I was doing tasks before. There are two puzzling doors. One big and one small are like "adults" in the eyes of humans holding "children" side by side.In the early morning, the gates were opened, and almost all the students carrying schoolbags along the road walked down a gentle slope with no expression on their faces, and entered the place where they were about to stay for a whole day before leaving.

At this time, the school he came to was quite different from what he remembered. The wide and clean avenue stretched from one end to the side of the road. When he walked straight ahead, he saw a long red building with a few golden characters on it, which solemnly read "" Nanqiu No.[-] High School".

"Nanqiu... No. [-] High School." Coincidentally, Yu Yan knew these words, and he couldn't help but pronounce out loud as he stood in the middle and stared at the school name.

Just for a moment, I wanted to share the literacy achievement with the man around me, but when I turned around, I saw that stern face. Thinking of the man's unsmiling temper, Yu Yan secretly suppressed the joy in his heart, looked around, and found that it should be four The position of the square iron gate was replaced by a long, winding and enlarged version of the iron chain.

This is the retractable door created by human beings. In recent years, he has often seen that apart from being able to automatically slide and open on a fixed path, Yu Yan does not find it convenient. , as long as it is a normal adult with flexible movements, it can climb over it.

But it is impossible for Yu Yan to turn over, because at the door of the hut on the side of the retractable door, a middle-aged man in security uniform is staring at him, looking at him with questioning and probing eyes, as if he has been sizing them up for a long time.

"Mr. Fu..." Yu Yan looked at the man beside him.

Only then did Fu Jianchi glance at him plainly, and said, "Since you know you can't go in through the gate, why do you still come?"

"I just want to see it."

Seeing that Yu Yan hesitated to tell the truth that could not be called an explanation, Fu Jianchi didn't say much, and turned around to let the other party follow him.

Youths and teenagers appeared in a remote corner of the campus, surrounded by overgrown weeds and criss-crossed, blocking the two messengers from the underworld who came out of nowhere, and no one noticed them.

"Thank you." Yu Yanyu, who passed through the wall, said to the young man with a smile, "Mr. Fu, let's go find this undead now."

"En." Fu Jianchi responded, lowered his head and glanced at the serious and determined Yu Yan, and let go of the hand he was holding to bring him in through the wall.

The campus roads are lush with greenery, but the distance is only a hundred miles. There are groups of shrubs pruned into circular arcs on both sides, and they are full of fresh vigor that echoes the students.

When I met scattered students in school uniforms on the road, they almost all looked sideways at them. Fu Jianchi's neat suit and appearance really attracted attention on campus. Many girls turned their heads and whispered to the people next to him to discuss him.

Yu Yan walked beside him calmly, as if he was already used to this kind of scene.He has been walking in the human world for more than a thousand years, and he has a face of a boy who is about the same age as those students, and his eyes are particularly pure. He looks at every flower, every building, and every scene that appears in front of him with a three-pointed look. novel.

Under the guidance of Fu Jianchi, they finally stopped beside a tree covered with green leaves. There were steps at their feet. There were students sitting in twos and threes on the wide stone steps, chatting.Following the young man's gaze, Yu Yan found the target person this time.

He walked down the steps at a leisurely pace, and walked towards the lonely figure sitting with his back facing him.

"Hello." Yu Yan also imitated the other party and sat on the steps, and politely said the opening words that human beings used to greet each other, "Are you Gu Qi?"

The boy's expression was full of guard, he looked at the person who suddenly struck up a conversation, and instead of answering Yu Yan's question, he asked, "Can you see me?"

"Of course." Yu Yan patiently explained: "I'm not human."

"Are you... Death? Did you come to take me away?" Gu Qi continued to ask excitedly.

Yu Yan often hears the word "Death God", which is a name created by human beings for those who take life from the underworld.Every spirit person who mentioned this word in front of him had the same horror in their eyes. Although they had the word "God", it was a word that symbolized cruelty and darkness.

"I'm not the god of death." To be precise, Yu Yan is indeed not the so-called god of death, because he is not responsible for taking the soul from the human body.

The power of life and death cannot be controlled by him. What he has to do is to find those souls who have reached the end of their lives but have not been taken to the underworld by the "ghost of death" for various reasons, and complete the final finishing work.Rather than saying that he is the god of death, it is better to say that he is more like the aftermath handler of the god of death.

Gu Qi is obviously not such an easy-to-fool person, he frowned and asked the question: "Then what are you? Why do you know my name?"

"I..." Yu Yan thought about how to explain his identity to the aggressive young man in front of him, he blinked and said, "I'm here to help you fulfill your wish."

"Fulfill your wish? Do you know what you're talking about?" Gu Qi showed an angry expression when he heard his words, "I'm already dead, I've been dead for more than a month!"

I didn't let you die.Yu Yan cried out for himself in his heart.

"It is precisely because you did not fulfill certain wishes during your lifetime that you linger here after death. If you think about the people and things you are concerned about, I can help you fulfill them."

Facing Yu Yan's serious explanation, Gu Qi was skeptical, "So, you didn't come to take me to hell?"

"Hell? Why do you all think you will go to hell?" Hell is a bad word in the human world, and Yu Yan wants to correct his statement.

"Is there really a heaven? Even if there is, it's not a place for people like me to go." Gu Qi gave up on himself and turned his head to look forward, as if he didn't care about his future.

Yu Yan still answered his question honestly: "I don't know if there is a heaven."

"I really don't know where you came from. You keep saying that you want to help me realize my wish, but you don't even know this." Gu Qi gave him a contemptuous look.

Maybe it's because Yu Yan's appearance is similar to his age. Although Gu Qi couldn't figure out the identity of this person, he didn't show the slightest sense of awe. He straightened his back slightly and said in a haughty tone : "Forget it, it doesn't make sense to talk about it now anyway."

"Then tell me, is there any unfulfilled last wish?" Yu Yan didn't care about his contempt at all. Human beings are hard to understand. He just wants to complete the task as soon as possible. This is his mission in the world. .

"Can you stop saying it so badly?" The word last wish made Gu Qi frowned, it was the first time he heard someone use this word on himself.

Yu Yan pursed her lips and thought about it, then asked in a different way: "Have you been here for more than a month?"

"Otherwise, where else can I go? I can't get out of school at all."

It turned out to be an earthbound spirit.In this way, the scope is greatly reduced, and it is only necessary to find the things Gu Qi cares about in the only place.

Yu Yan noticed that he had been looking forward from the beginning, and followed suit.In front of the steps, there is a huge playground surrounded by white fences. The red plastic track is divided into circles with the same spacing, and the green lawn in the middle is surrounded by tree rings.

In the distance, some people are strolling leisurely on the lawn, some people are sitting on the ground and taking a nap, only a few boys in short-sleeved shirts are running hard on the bright red outer track.A static and dynamic picture was formed, which spread before their eyes in two contrasting colors under the afterglow.

"Hey, look! His running time this time is shorter than yesterday." On the steps below the two of them, there were three girls sitting. Among them, the girl with short hair pointed excitedly at the boy running on the playground and exclaimed. .

"Hey, don't point it! It's too obvious, but you actually timed it?"

"Of course, I am confident that he will still be No.1 in this sports meeting."

"Haha, you don't cheer for your class?"

Another girl said with a smile: "Oh, it's not like you don't know that the one in your class can't compare to Wang Yuyuan from her family!"

"Why are you such a bitch!" The short-haired girl pushed her friend, but her face was full of smiles.

"When are you going to confess? I'm going to watch."

"You think too much, I'm not very familiar with him now..."

"If you take the initiative, you'll get used to it."

There were bursts of crisp laughter from time to time during the conversation. Yu Yan looked curiously at the shy and excited expressions of the girls, and suddenly thought of Fu Jianchi who had been talked about in this way just now. He looked around, but did not see the familiar handsome figure.

But Yu Yan didn't feel any anxiety or doubt, because he knew that Mr. Fu must be urging him not far away.Or just next to him, using an invisible barrier to hide, as long as he needs it, just call out, and the other party will definitely appear and provide assistance.

The calm water in the pool was disturbed by a stone, and circles of fine blue waves appeared on the mirror surface. Yu Yan looked at the fish that quickly hid under the lotus leaves due to the sudden movement, feeling unsatisfied.

He leaned forward, reached out and pinched the huge lotus leaf close to him, slowly lifted it up, and continued to watch the brightly colored koi fish.

"Plop." There was another sound of sinking into the water, and the fish huddled next to the root of the lotus leaf immediately scattered.

"Why do you keep throwing stones?" Yu Yan looked at Gu Qi who was sitting beside him in puzzlement.

"I like it, can't I?"

For some reason, Yu Yan felt that the other party was a little gloomy.Yesterday's conversation came to an abrupt end after the other party said that he couldn't get out of the campus, and no matter how much he asked and answered, Gu Qi refused to talk to him because of discouragement.

Today, he followed Gu Qi around the campus for a long time, and saw many scenes of youth, the sound of reading books in the teaching building, the jumping and cheering of the basketball court, boys and girls filing out amidst the ringing of the school bell, walking in every On the flat road at the place, loud and flamboyant laughter came out.

Gu Qi always hurried past without saying a word, but Yu Yan Tao Ran took in these pictures that shone like sunlight through the gaps. He had no curiosity about human beings at all, but inexplicably yearned for the learning atmosphere created by human beings.

"You sat here all afternoon." Yu Yan reminded.

"I'm almost tired of staying in this school. It's the same class bell every day, the same schedule, and there are people everywhere I want to go. Only here is a little quieter."

The small pond at the end of October is not decorated with water lilies like red lanterns. Surrounded by gray and dark rockery, it is unobtrusive. The green surface of the pond is slightly cold, and there are only the remaining hanging lotuses in summer. Ye, shake the yellow leaf body when the breeze comes, and stir the pool water that no one cares about.

"Although I'm getting tired of waiting, it's not to the point of being annoying, right?" Yu Yan sensitively captured the emotions hidden in his words.

Seeing Gu Qi turning his head to look at himself, Yu Yan continued: "Because there must be someone you miss in this school. As I said, it is because of this that you can't leave the campus."

"No." Gu Qi shook his head and repeated: "There is no such person."

Yu Yan didn't continue to ask any more questions, anyway, he had enough time to wait for every undead to open their hearts.The underworld set up such a position to help the spirits wandering in the human world to end their obsessions. In the words of a former undead, it is like tearing and scraping some small advertisements that are still stuck on the poles after being torn off-requires patience and perseverance.

The only advantage is that there is no time limit.In this way, he can wait indefinitely until the undead who cares about him take the initiative to confide in him, or as time goes by, his wish is fulfilled.

However, Yu Yan is a dedicated messenger of the underworld. Although he has no interest in human beings, he will still make a difference, try his best to assist his mission goals, and let them reincarnate as soon as possible, or truly disappear.

What's more, in the process, you can often gain unexpected fun.

Anything other than people can become Yu Yan's pleasure, so after he didn't talk to him, he continued to stare at the swimming fish in the pond, but was disturbed by the pebbles that Gu Qi deliberately threw in.

Yu Yan turned his head and asked suspiciously: "Do you hate these fish?"

"What the hell? Why do I hate them." Gu Qi was confused when asked, his eyes swept over the rippling pool surface, and said: "I just don't like it being too calm."

"What's wrong with being calm?"

"Didn't you notice it?" Gu Qi pointed at the surface of the pool where the ripples had disappeared, and said unwillingly: "I can't see my reflection."

Yu Yan lowered his head and looked down, the surface of the pool glistening with water only reflected the rockery behind them.

"It's normal. You are an undead now, and you can't see your appearance even in the mirror."

In order not to arouse the resentment of the mission target, he never said straightforward words such as "you are dead".Originally thought that he had avoided the roundabout explanation of the other party's pain, but it still made Gu Qi emotional.

"Hey! Believe it or not, I pushed you into the water." He showed his displeasure bluntly.

"I'm here to help you."

"Do you help others like this? Of course I know I'm dead, so I don't need you to remind me!" After speaking, Gu Qi threw the stones accumulated in his hands into the pool, and "plop, plop" sent out swallowed water Voice.

Yu Yan was a little helpless, didn't know what to say, so he quietly counted the ripples of the rippling water, staring at them in a daze.It wasn't until a couple of men and women came down the small stairs beside the rockery that Gu Qi began to break the silence.

He let out an impatient "tsk" and said to Yu Yan: "Someone is here, let's go."
