Chapter 45 At least better than a monkey.
Liu Jianjun even thought he had misheard.
He asked again.
“The King Yama you mentioned, could it be…”
“It’s that old guy you all know.”
Qin Liu did not have the slightest respect for King Yama.
She knew very well what kind of person this old fox was, but it was too troublesome to explain, so she didn’t go into detail.
“In short, that old man will come and be the MC for me, otherwise I’ll definitely pull out his beard.”
Qin Liu covered her forehead and sighed.
I have to admit, King Yama, this old fox, is indeed too cunning.
From the performance of Black and White Impermanence, it is clear that the Underworld had the ability to handle this matter, but in the end, they still made her and Liu Haoyu work hard, and even tricked Liu Haoyu into signing that so-called contract. This debt… Tsk~
Qin Liu got angrier the more she thought about it, but Liu Jianjun saw that the time was almost up, so he said to Qin Liu.
“Alright, alright.” He stood up and patted the non-existent dust on his body. “On the fifteenth, I’ll be there on time.”
“Thank you…”
Qin Liu was about to lower her head to thank him, but Liu Jianjun stopped her directly.
“We’re all family, why thank each other?”
The man waved his hand, a smile on his face.
“If you really want to thank us, then let that kid prepare a few more bottles of good wine for us at the wedding.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Jianjun stepped into the Nai River and gradually disappeared from Qin Liu’s sight.
After his figure completely disappeared, Qin Liu also stood up.
She did not return to the Human World, but walked towards Youdu.
Just as she told Liu Jianjun before, she was going to settle accounts with King Yama.
The yin wind blew the flame of the lantern in Qin Liu’s hand. The young girl raised her hand and drew a line in the air, and a bloody ghost gate appeared out of thin air. The ferocious evil ghost statue on the door knocker trembled when it saw her.
“Red Gate, send me to the Yamalo section.”
This gate was the true form of the Gate of the Yellow Springs, but even so, it still trembled like a grandson in front of Qin Liu.
“Wait, wait…” Red Gate looked at Qin Liu in front of it and couldn’t help but ask, “Grandma, what are you going to the Yamalo section for?”
“Don’t worry.” Qin Liu said with a friendly smile. “I’ll just pull out a few of his beard at most.”
After speaking, she didn’t care what Red Gate thought, Qin Liu kicked the door open and walked straight in.
As soon as the gate was opened, Ox-Head and Horse-Face appeared in front of Qin Liu. Ox-Head, seeing Qin Liu, had its eyeballs as wide as ping pong balls.
“You junior, how dare you come back, I’ll impale you this…”
Ox-Head raised its steel fork and was about to move forward, but Horse-Face next to him immediately stopped his colleague and dragged him aside.
“It’s okay, it’s okay.” Horse-Face’s horse face smiled and said, “He’s a bit hot-tempered lately, I’ll go calm him down. Grandma, put down your shoes, let’s talk.”
“I want to see Old Yan, let me pass.”
Qin Liu looked at Ox-Head and Horse-Face with a blank expression.
She had been following Liu Haoyu before, so she had always been more restrained, but without Liu Haoyu present, she didn’t think there was any need to pretend.
“Okay…”
Horse-Face and a group of Ghost Messengers cleared a path, and as they watched the disappearing girl, these Ghost Messengers couldn’t help but wipe the sweat from their foreheads, feeling relieved at heart.
——————
In the Yamalo section, King Yama was reading memorials with his legs crossed, with a cup of milk tea fromMeng Po’s Coffee Shop delivered by takeout beside him.
He heard footsteps and said without looking up.
“Didn’t I say, no work during nap time…”
“Old Yan,” Qin Liu walked up to King Yama and placed the Soul Guiding Lantern on the table, “You’re really living a comfortable life.”
Hearing this voice, King Yama’s hand paused, then he looked up and saw Qin Liu. His majestic face instantly collapsed.
“Oh dear, my little ancestor, are you the monkey from heaven? Why do you keep coming to my place every few days?”
Looking at this old fox who was still pretending to be innocent, Qin Liu narrowed her eyes and said leisurely.
“Being able to open the last shackle of the Mirror Gate also proves… that the Underworld can handle the matter of the Mirror Ghost by itself, right?”
Facing Qin Liu’s kind expression, King Yama gave an embarrassed smile.
“The government must ensure that everything is foolproof.”
“But the debt between me and that idiot… How do you think we should settle it?”
It should be known that Gu Qianyang’s escape back to the Human World and the resulting mess was originally the Underworld’s negligence. In the end, it was she and Liu Haoyu who worked themselves to death to finally resolve this matter.
Not to mention not getting any credit, why did she have to sign a contract with this old fox?
If Liu Haoyu hadn’t been there at the time, she would have pulled out this old man’s beard on the spot.
King Yama felt uncomfortable being stared at by Qin Liu. He seemed to understand her intention, so he coughed twice and moistened his throat with red tea.
“Well… the Underworld is currently facing financial difficulties. It’s reasonable that the process of rewarding merit is a bit slow, right?”
“Oh?” Qin Liu looked at King Yama’s appearance, her colorless eyes looking at him, “When will those things be available? Or should I pick them myself?”
“Don’t rush, don’t rush! You don’t need to bother with such a small matter.”
King Yama waved his hands repeatedly.
It was a joke, if Qin Liu was allowed to pick, she might have moved the entire Yamalo section.
“Rewards and everything else are easy to discuss… easy to discuss… I’ll send them to you in a few days.”
Looking at this grandmother in front of him, I have to admit that she was as difficult to deal with as the monkey from heaven.
However, the advantage over that monkey was that at least this crazy girl wouldn’t tear up his Book of Life and Death, she had only dismantled one of his bridges and one Yamalo section.
And the loss was slightly… after adding a little and reporting it to the higher-ups, the approved budget was enough for him to rebuild three bridges and three Yamalo sections.
“Not in a few days, but next month. Liu Haoyu and I are getting married that day, and you can be the MC, preferably with more people.”
“Pfft!!”
The cup of tea that King Yama had just drunk was directly sprayed out.
“Do you have to be so surprised?”
Qin Liu looked at him expressionlessly, and King Yama coughed for a long time before he recovered and muttered.
“I really can’t imagine what the crazy girl who beat up all the evil ghosts in the Underworld back then would look like in a wedding dress… Hiss~ You didn’t force that kid, did you?”
“Hmm?”
The Soul Guiding Lantern in Qin Liu’s hand burst into a ball of emerald green flames with a “bang.” King Yama only then realized he had let slip his tongue, so he quickly changed his words.
“I mean, a perfect match, a match made in heaven!”
After getting what she wanted, Qin Liu nodded with satisfaction and placed the invitation in her pocket on the table.
“Next month, the fifteenth, remember to be there on time.”
King Yama picked up the gold-plated invitation, and the worried look on his face instantly disappeared like a change of face. The old fox stroked his beard and chuckled.
“Remember to leave me two more glasses of wedding wine at the wedding.”
