Can't Save the World by Pretending to be Dead

Wearing a simple black dress, he has a tall and straight figure, and a bright lamp hangs from the top of his head, which outlines a deep and ax-like face.

Ji Chen grabbed Lian Xi's wrist with one hand and blocked him behind him.He bowed his head slightly and looked at the majestic old man in front of him.

There is no need for more words. Between the eyes, a strong and stiff atmosphere diffused in the room.The bedroom was eerily quiet, only the faint breathing of humans could be heard.

Mr. Wang has not seen anyone who dared to face himself so directly for many years.

He was a young man in his early twenties.

The Wang family made their fortune during the liberation period.It has been passed down for four generations.Mr. Wang is the second generation.

Only two small soy sauce shops were passed down to him from his father's generation. He traveled far and wide, boldly innovated, experienced half a century of ups and downs, and saw huge waves before he developed the Wang family to where it is today.

The minister's question was short and simple, but there was a sense of oppression that could not be ignored in the words.The cold and severe pressure pressed hard on Mr. Wang's body, and a piercing chill shot straight up from the ground.

"do not know."

Do you know Wang Yueqing?

do not know.

He is lying!

In an instant, all the ghosts and ghost messengers who had read the book of life and death knew that the old man was lying.

Lying means that there must be something wrong. It seems that the abnormality in Wang Yuyun's body must be related to his younger brother Wang Yuyun.

Hearing Mr. Wang's answer, Jichen couldn't help laughing.He lowered his eyes and was about to ask again, but Lian Xi stopped him.Jin Chen was slightly surprised, but Lian Xi shook his head at him.

I'll ask.

... Hey, whatever.

Ji Chen turned half his body sideways, Lian Xi took a deep breath, and walked in front of Mr. Wang: "Mr. Wang, you have two grandchildren. One is this Young Master Wang on the bed," Lian Xi pointed Wang Yuyun lay unconscious on the bed, "The other one is your little grandson, Wang Yueqing."

When Lian Xi's words fell to the ground, everyone in the room didn't change their faces, only Wang Yuyun's assistant Xiao Liu and Gao Jiaxun showed strange expressions.

Of course Assistant Liu knew about Wang Yueqing, but he was the second young master of the Wang family. He had followed Young Master Wang and met him a few times.But Wang Yue died early, he just died last month!

Gao Jiaxun also remembered who Wang Yueqing was.Because the second youngest of the Wang family was weak and sickly since childhood, he was recuperating abroad, and later became terminally ill.When outsiders mentioned him, they always referred to him as Wang Ershao, and seldom mentioned the name Wang Yueqing.So, these ghostly phenomena that appeared on the Young Master of the Wang family are actually related to his brother who just died?

Everyone's expressions changed in just a few seconds, but Lian Xi was keenly aware of a fact.

When he deliberately mentioned the name Wang Yueqing again, neither Mr. Wang nor his old housekeeper responded.

Lian Xi's gaze gradually sank.

Not surprised, it means that he already knew, or at least guessed, that Wang Yuyun's collision with evil has something to do with the second young master of the Wang family.

Lian Xi: "I would venture to ask, is Wang Yueqing still alive?"

As soon as the voice fell, the atmosphere in the room became even colder.

Lian Xi looked calm, and he said indifferently: "As far as I know, Mr. Wang Yueqing should have passed away last month."

"This gentleman," the old butler in a suit suddenly said, bowing his head slightly, his tone respectful, but neither humble nor overbearing: "The second young master indeed passed away last month. If there is no special reason, please don't repeat it over and over again." Bring it up."

Lian Xi: "Mr. Wang should know a real master."

The old man sitting in the armchair raised his head slowly.

Lian Xi: "Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a jade pendant that was cast with magic."

Looking calmly at the old man in front of him, Lian Xi said: "Mr. Wang, have you ever thought about Mr. Wang's current situation, is it related to his brother?"

After a long time, Mr. Wang said, "What does this kid want to say."

After a moment of silence, Lian Xi said, "Since you know a real master, you must know some metaphysical rules. If a mortal dies, he should be reincarnated. No matter who this mortal was in his previous life, he is just an ordinary person in this life. , Yangshou is exhausted, it is time to reincarnate."

The watchman nodded in agreement: "My lord is right, if you miss the world of mortals and refuse to reincarnate, you will turn into a ghost sooner or later. If you are caught by our ghost guards, you will be beaten to death."

What the hell are we doing?

Hearing this key word, the expressions of several people present changed.Only Mr. Wang didn't seem to have much reaction to the ghosts. He tightened his fingers holding the cane slightly, instead of looking at the watchman, he looked at Lian Xi, and suddenly asked, "Who was his last life?"

Lian Xi was taken aback.

This is what Mr. Wang is focusing on?

Lian Xi immediately asked back: "Do you know where he is? He's not dead?"

The old man looked at Lian Xi fixedly, with deep emotions in his cloudy and vicissitudes eyes.He seemed to be thinking about something, everything was very short. Suddenly, Mr. Wang stood up, and he looked at Gao Jiaxun: "President Gao of Jiaxun Capital?"

Gao Jiaxun was stunned, and quickly recovered: "It's me, Mr. Wang."

Mr. Wang: "I will arrange for someone to review your contract tomorrow."

Gao Jiaxun opened his mouth in surprise, he understood, his face flushed with excitement: "Thank you, Mr. Wang, thank you very much."

Mr. Wang turned his head again and looked at Lian Xi and Jichen. His voice was as loud as a bell, and he said calmly, "The masters came here under the entrustment of Mr. Gao. The Wang family also knows some masters Xuanxiu. Today Let’s leave it at that, I’ve troubled a few masters to make a trip, and the Wang family will definitely thank you.”

After Mr. Wang finished speaking, the old butler immediately understood: "Masters, please follow me."

Things are changing very fast.

Originally, Lian Xi and the others were requested by Gao Jiaxun to come to help see the young master of the Wang family's encounter with a ghost.Now it was getting brighter, Mr. Wang appeared in person, sent them away, asked them not to interfere in this matter, and hinted at a certain reward.

After working as impermanence for half a year, this is the first time Lian Xi has encountered such a situation.

Now, Gao Jiaxun has got what he wants.He looked hesitant, a little at a loss.On the one hand, if he invites Lian Xi and the others to intervene in this matter, he will offend Mr. Wang.But on the other hand, the investigation of this incident so far is more like a conspiracy against the young master of the Wang family.

Could it be that Mr. Wang wanted the life of his grandson?

In other words, the little grandson turned into a ghost and wanted his brother's life, but the grandfather actually acquiesced?

Gao Jiaxun was in a dilemma, of course he didn't want to see a living person die like this.But his company, the career he has fought for half his life, is at the other end of the balance.He looked at Lianxi helplessly.

However, Lian Xi was also in a daze at the moment.

Just when Lian Xi didn't know what to do, a shrill and frightened scream sounded from behind.

"Ghost!!!"

"Help, ghost, ghost!!!"

The familiar voice made Lian Xi turn his head, only to see that Wang Yuyun, who had just finished taking the sedative, had woken up. He looked at Lian Xi in horror, and shouted again.

"Don't come here, don't come here..."

"You want to come here again, I will fight, fight with you!!!"

A pair of bloodshot eyes were full of fear and fear. The young man on the bed grasped all the hard objects around him with both hands, and even used an alarm clock as a weapon to block him in order to threaten Lianxi. He approaches.

He was terrified to the extreme, every cell in his body was frantically telling how much he was afraid of Lian Xi.

How much fear means...

How much this man wants to live.

Lian Xi pursed his lips slightly, and asked, "Judge Cui, if you leave him alone, how long will he live?"

Judge Cui opened the book of life and death, and a line of golden words appeared on the page like a book without words: "The date of Wang Yuyun's death has been affected, and there is no fixed number now. But according to his current situation, my lord, when the sun rises, he will It was his death."

Lian Xi nodded, then looked at the watchman: "You also said just now that after death, one should be reincarnated. If he turns into a ghost to harm people, the ghost messenger should arrest him?"

The watchman repeatedly said yes.

Jiang Gui smiled eccentrically and said, "My good lord, that's not necessarily the case. The so-called obedience to obedience to obedience to evil is what the rules say, but what we need to do is to be flexible. So many people die every day in this world, and there are so many ghosts. Where can I catch it. You turn a blind eye, isn’t it the same.”

Judge Cui frowned: "Ghost Jiang, don't speak nonsense in front of your lord!"

However, listening to Jiang Gui's words, Watchman and Yunnan Dao Hei Wuchang looked away and did not refute.Even the wheel-running king turned his tiger's eyes and didn't say a word for the first time.After trying to figure out Lian Xi's expression and confirming that he wanted to save someone, Tiger Spirit immediately kicked Jiang Gui's thigh, kicking him so stunned that he fell to the ground.

Tiger spirit: "Well, you little brat, I'm here, and you dare to obey? This is the legend that the King of Hades is easy to mess with, and the little devil is hard to deal with! Wait until you go back today, and see if I don't peel off your skin!"

How corrupt the underworld system is, there is no need for Jiang Gui to remind him personally. Lian Xi can still remember his eight-bedroom concubine alone.

Lian Xi ignored the farce of the little ghost of Hades, and looked directly at the old man in front of him.

"Mr. Wang, you heard it just now. In a few hours at most, Mr. Wang will die."

The gray-haired old man paused slightly, but did not speak.

Lian Xi: "In your capacity and because you know Xuanxiu who made the jade pendant, you must know something about these things in the metaphysics world. Maybe you have already guessed that I am one of the ghost messengers in Sucheng. Ghost messengers Catching ghosts is a matter of course. This is our duty and our duty."

After a pause, Lian Xi's voice was calm: "Actually, I have never been a competent ghost messenger. For some special reasons since I was young, I would not interfere with ghost affairs if I was not forced to. But let me watch a ghost A big living person was killed by a ghost in front of me, but I didn't reach out to give him a hand... I'm sorry, I can't do it."

"Because I'm a normal person."

"Your grandson, he wants to live very much now, do you hear?"

The spacious and bright room suddenly fell silent.

Only Wang Yuyun was still yelling in horror: "Don't come here, ghost, don't, don't come here..."

However, Wang Yuyun, who lost his mind, never knew that at this moment, in this room, ghosts and gods are not mentioned, among so many human beings, the only one who firmly wants him to come back to life is the one he called a ghost.

Clenching his hands into fists, after a while, Gao Jiaxun suddenly said: "Mr. Wang, I'm sorry, I can't just watch Mr. Wang die in front of me. I don't know what happened between Mr. Wang and Mr. Wang, and I don't know Why did you acquiesce in this matter, but the young master passed away last month, I know it."

Gao Jiaxun looked at Lian Xi solemnly: "Mr. Lian, I invited you to catch the ghost. If Wang Ershao really turned into a ghost and wants to take Mr. Wang's life, please catch this ghost."

Mr. Wang looked at the young people in front of him coldly.

After half an hour.

"Old Zhong, see off the guests!"

The old butler got the order, winked at the bodyguard, and wanted to force Lian Xi and the others to leave.But as soon as these bodyguards approached, they heard a cold snort from the King of Wheels.A gust of wind swirled up from the ground, blowing away the bodyguards, and slammed into the wall with a thud, wailing.

Mr. Wang's eyes flickered. He took out his mobile phone and made a call.

Lian Xi: "Are you looking for the master Xuanxiu you know? It is the law of the underworld to catch ghosts. Even if it is Xuanxiu, you can't stop it."

The act of making a phone call paused slightly, and the old man looked up at Lian Xi: "If you say, it's not a ghost."

Lian Xi was stunned: "Not a ghost?"

Before he could react, the man beside him suddenly gasped in surprise.

"It's really not a ghost."

Lian Xi turned to look at him.

Jichen clicked his tongue softly: "It's kind of interesting. It's not a person, it's not a ghost, it's not a god..."

Lian Xi: "Are you talking about Wang Yueqing? You found him, where did you find him?"

Jichen pointed out the door: "Here."

As soon as the voice fell, the bedroom door was suddenly pushed open from the outside.

The boy in the silk shirt stood quietly outside the door. He raised his dark eyes and scanned everyone in the room silently.He is short and thin, his skin is as white as bone china, and his lips are almost bloodless. He has almost no resemblance to Wang Yuyun who is hiding on the bed. What I have to say in common is their thin lips.

In the quiet room where needles can be heard, Tiger Jing suddenly said strangely: "Bai Di? No way."

Judge Cui also had a strange expression on his face: "It's not like..."

His eyes swept over everyone's face one by one, and when he saw Ji Chen, the boy stopped for a few seconds.When he saw Lian Xi, he also paused for a moment, then suddenly glanced over in a daze.Finally, he nodded to Mr. Wang, and then walked towards the big bed.

The moment Wang Yueqing appeared, the eldest son of the Wang family became dumb, and stopped pointing at Lian and scolding the ghost.He foolishly watched Wang Yueqing approaching, halfway there, he slammed the weapon alarm clock in his arms, screaming hoarsely.

"ghost!"

"Ghost!!!"

The boy stopped in his footsteps, his lips moved, and he looked at his own brother indifferently, but in the end he still didn't move.

"If there is an owner in the underworld, what should you call it? I think it should be the owner of the underworld?" Wang Yueqing raised his head, looked at the person in front of him calmly, and said, "Long time no see, the owner of the underworld."

"..."

"The memory of my previous life is not clear, isn't it called that?"

"..." Lian Xi: "The title should be correct, but you can turn around. Actually, the one behind you, my colleague...he is the Lord of the Underworld."

Wang Yueqing: "..."

Turning around, raising his head a little more, Wang Yueqing looked at the tall man in front of him with difficulty.

Jichen lowered his eyes and glanced at Wang Yueqing, then looked away, and couldn't help but take another look.He raised his head and said to Lian Xi, "Is this dwarf 1.6 meters tall?"

Lian Xi: "..."

That's how it is, the rules of the rivers and lakes, swearing at others does not reveal faults...

Wang Yueqing: "..."

"Jianchen, you are short, your whole family is short!!!"

Ji Chen's eyes flashed.

"Huh."
