Chapter 11 Strange Stories from the Ghost Market
"Then bring me a bowl." Xu Qingling said, finding a table and sitting down.
"Okay, this little brother, don't you want a bowl?"
Sikong Yan waved his hands in a hurry, "I'm not hungry, no need."
Although I smell The taste was so appetizing that Sikong Yan couldn't help but swallow, but he still held it back.
Although the food at the stalls in this ghost market is not a mess, it is mixed with yin energy. As a human being, eating it will definitely cause a bad stomach, and you may even get sick.
So no matter how greedy you are, forget it.
However, Sikong Yan sat down on the chair next to Xu Qingling.
“It’s time to sew your body. The royal embroiderer who inherited it from the palace will sew it up completely for you, no matter whether your body is cracked, broken, or your head is broken, without leaving a single seam!”
< br>There was shouting from the stall opposite.
Xu Qingling turned around and saw an old lady wearing an ancient palace maid's costume. She was quickly threading needles. There was a large speaker next to her, shouting in a loop.
And the thing she was wearing...
It was a seven or eight-year-old kid with a severed head.
I saw the kid lying down, and the old lady took the thread and kept sewing on the neck of the decapitated kid, very quickly.
The decapitated kid seemed to notice that others were paying attention to him. He couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Xu Qingling, showing a childish and cute smile with two dimples. He smiled, and his eyeballs suddenly fell out. Coming down...it seemed like he was specifically trying to scare Xu Qingling.
Xu Qingling: ...Fortunately, I'm not afraid of ghosts, otherwise I would have had a heart attack due to fright.
The next second, the decapitated kid’s head was slapped hard by the old lady. Xu Qingling saw that the head was flattened by the old lady, but the next second, it inflated like a balloon. She got up and returned to normal. The old lady's withered hands straightened her head. , scolded in a cold tone, "Why move? What if something is not patched up and the wind leaks when I walk in the future? I will be reborn as a disabled person in my next life, so don't move!"
The kid with the beheaded head is now I didn't dare to move, and I didn't dare to scare Xu Qingling.
Xu Qingling turned around and saw Sikong Yan looking frightened but trying to comfort himself, with an expression on his face that he was about to cry.
When Xu Qingling looked at him, he forced out a smile that was uglier than crying, and said: "I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid. If I have an attack, it will be more violent than him." , and puffed out his chest.
Sikong Yan naturally had to play ghost in front of Xu Qingling, a female ghost. Seeing Xu Qingling continue to look at him, as if he didn't believe what he said, he hurriedly continued: "Really, he just lost his eyeballs. I can still buckle them down and they can still fly.”
“And my hands can be folded down and mounted on my buttocks.”
Xu Qingling silently retracted her gaze from Sikong Yan, forget it, stop looking, and continue looking. Going down, I wonder if the child will fold off his feet and install them on his head.
Sikong Yan couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Xu Qingling didn't look at him again. It was quite difficult to pretend to be a ghost.
"Girl, your noodle soup is ready." At this time, the ghost boss brought a bowl of hot noodle soup and placed it in front of Xu Qingling.
Xu Qingling looked at this, and it seemed that it was no different from what he usually ate in the human world, and it tasted even better.
Picking up the chopsticks, Xu Qingling picked up the noodles and ate them. The noodles were chewy, elastic, and had a good taste. There were also slices of meat from an unknown animal, which were also very tender. She lowered her head and took a sip of the soup. It also tasted very good. Delicious.
"How about it, not bad." Ghost boss Lao Li Tou is very confident in his craftsmanship.
Seeing that Xu Qingling was eating so well, Sikong Yan was so greedy that he swallowed his saliva, but he still resisted ordering a bowl.
“Hey, you all know about the newly established Fengdu Leave Division in this underworld.”
"Of course I know. I wrote a leave application form as soon as possible."
At this time, several ghosts also sat at the table next to Xu Qingling, each ordered a bowl of noodle soup, and discussed It reminded me of the recent happenings in the underworld.
To say that the most hotly debated topic recently is undoubtedly the Fengdu Leave Secretary. After Sikong Yan heard this, his eyes lit up and he quickly pricked up his ears to listen.
This time, he came to the ghost market to find out about the Fengdu Leave Application Department.
"I heard that the director is a young girl, and she is very beautiful."
"I heard that the director has a great background, but it seems that he became the director through the back door. I heard We, Lord Underworld, have to give the person behind her a hard time.”
“I don’t care about this director. How did I get elected? I just want to have the opportunity to return to the human world and see my relatives."
"By the way, do you know that Emperor Hades seems to be abdicating recently? I heard that Emperor Hades is about to abdicate. It seems that he wants Lord Hei Wuchang to take over his position..."
"..."
Sikong Yan did not expect that he could actually hear the news that Emperor Hades seemed to be abdicating.
I don’t know if this is hearsay or true?
If it is true, it will be a big turmoil for the underworld or the human world.
It's a pity that they didn't talk about the director of Fengdu's leave department. All he knew from them so far was that she was a young girl with a rich background. Those ghosts didn't know about the rest.
At this moment, Sikong Yan's eyes inadvertently fell on Xu Qingling who was eating noodles. By the way, she was also a ghost.
I wonder how much she knows.
So, Sikong Yan asked.
Xu Qingling finished a mouthful of noodles and slowly looked up at him, "Do you want to know about the leave department and the director?"
Xu Qingling looked him up and down, "I do know some things that others don't know. I know, but you Want me to tell you, do you also want to tell me something, for example, why are you asking?"
Xu Qingling's sharp and cold eyes fell on Sikong Yan, and for a moment, Sikong Yan felt that he Seen through.
"Okay, okay, then I will tell you some news."
"The underworld and the human world seem to be two different worlds, but they are closely related..."
In Sikong After Yan's narration, Xu Qingling pieced it together and figured out the reason why Sikong Yan inquired about her and the leave department.
In this era, the existence of the underworld is not a secret among high-level people in the human world. There are also many metaphysical families in the human world.
Even the underworld and the human world cooperate from time to time.
Of course, these metaphysics families have great respect and awe for the people in the underworld.
In particular, the establishment of the Leave Department this time was to help the obsessed ghosts return to the human world and fulfill their wishes. On the human side, it was known almost from the moment the Leave Department was established. Will continue to provide strong support.
And the most important thing is that there has been no god in this world for nearly a hundred years, and Hades is also a god...
That is...
"... This leave department and its director are a bit mysterious.”
"So far, the metaphysics family in this world doesn't know where the leave department is, nor what the director looks like, so everyone is looking for it."
Xu Qingling understood, so this is where Sikong Yanlai came from. The ghost market inquires about the reason for asking for leave?
