Chapter 9: The First Mission
"Jiang Chengyue, you haven't failed your math grades since you entered the school, and if you continue like this, you will only be more and more unable to keep up, what if you can't get into college in the future?"
In the school's one-man office, a young teacher in a white narrow ladies' blazer and a black scoop neck undershirt sat at his desk with a very serious expression. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"It just so happens that I'm fine after work, for the sake of your usual class, I'll give you free make-up classes, just start today, you can go home with me after school!"
Mr. Tang raised his hand slightly and pushed the gold wire frame. Without waiting for Jiang Chengyue to speak, he continued, and lifted his hair to his chest with his right hand, which could cover the snow white on his chest. As she moved, a faint scent wafted in.
Looking at the fleeting flirtatious smile on her face, Jiang Chengyue naturally understood that this young teacher meant something else, this tutoring was nothing more than a Hongmen banquet, and the main course was himself.
No wonder Mr. Tang tried to get me to the office, but he was afraid that he had already targeted me.
"Jiang Shuai, come and arrest me, come on! If you catch me, I'll let you hehehe......"
Jiang Chengyue made up for that scene in his head, and suddenly the cold hit him, and he couldn't help but shiver.
"Teacher Tang, my parents said that it doesn't matter if I can get into college or not, I'm happy, I understand your kindness!"
Jiang Chengyue smiled awkwardly and bowed to Teacher Tang to thank her.
"Teacher, it's not good!" A student suddenly rushed into the office in a panic and shouted.
"Didn't the elementary school teacher teach you to be polite, and you have to knock on the door when you enter the room? Is it a dead man or something that is so reckless? ”
Usually, a thirsty woman is prone to endocrine system disorders, unsolicited hyperthyroidism, confusion in her mind and other symptoms when she is rejected, commonly known as anger.
Teacher Tang had just been ruthlessly rejected by Jiang Chengyue, and now he was angry, and this unlucky ghost naturally became a punching bag when he bumped into it like this.
"Really...... It's a dead man! Ah Hong had a heart attack and died! ”
"What! Why didn't you say it earlier. When Teacher Tang heard that someone had died in his class, his face turned pale with fright, and Jiang Chengyue rushed out of the office directly with one hand.
This Ahongjiang Chengyue can also be regarded as acquaintances, and he is one of the few male fans of their band. He loves rock and roll, but because he has congenital heart disease, his family has not allowed him to contact these.
Here's your chance!
Bai Wuchang told him that every internship must bring the soul of the deceased back to the underworld within a month of registration. Jiang Chengyue was still worried about this matter before, but he didn't expect to be able to complete this task so quickly.
Jiang Chengyue's right hand was bent in front of her chest, and her index and middle fingers were together and gently touched the dark golden round stone on the soul protector.
In the office with the doors and windows closed, the breeze suddenly blew the white curtain in front of the window, but in the blink of an eye, Jiang Chengyue disappeared in place like the world had evaporated.
Jiang Chengyue once asked such a question, why people can't see Bai Wuchang when they can see him, but he can see it.
After Bai Wuchang explained to him, he realized that it was not difficult for mortals to see themselves or block their vision. Even the weakest demons can do it, but the weaker demons can't haunt during the day.
"......" Jiang Chengyue was so anxious that he accidentally passed through a classmate's body, and the moment he touched that classmate's body, the things that the classmate was thinking about were also synchronized into Jiang Chengyue's mind.
"It turned out to be a nerd ......," Jiang Chengyue glanced back at the classmate who was standing in place and was a little distracted, and rushed towards Ah Hong's class.
"Ahong!" Jiang Chengyue whispered to the weak boy who was panicking in the classroom.
When Ah Hong heard Jiang Chengyue's voice, he immediately turned his attention away from his parents who were crying bitterly.
"Idol of Death, are you dead too?" Ah Hong floated in front of Jiang Chengyue.
Jiang Chengyue showed a smile that she thought was reassuring and said her identity.
"No, don't! Idol of Death, since you are a soul, there must be a way for me to return to my body, please! You see my parents crying so sadly. Ah Hong grabbed his hand, and for a moment tears slipped down his cheeks from the corners of his eyes and dripped on the back of his hand.
Jiang Chengyue didn't understand that kind of unwillingness, after all, she had only experienced this similar experience a few days ago. He also knew that Ah Hong would not have shit luck like himself, and everything that awaited Ah Hong was unknown.
At a similar age, the empathetic experience made Jiang Chengyue feel a little more sympathetic and responsible for Ah Hong, and he had to send Ah Hong to the underworld safely.
Huangquan Road, a place where everyone who dies will go through it, except, of course, those who are not escorted to the underworld in time and wander in the world and become evil ghosts, and those who are too resentful in life and turn into evil ghosts immediately after death.
It's not that these soul detainees don't have the mana to send these souls directly to the underworld, but out of a ritual consideration.
This ritual is a sign of respect for the deceased and also gives them time to sort out their emotions and accept the reality of their own death.
On the dirt path covered with white fog and overgrown weeds, Jiang Chengyue spread out her palm and summoned the Death Scythe, carefully observing everything around her.
"Let's go! There is no inn on Huangquan Road, so you can hurry with peace of mind. Jiang Chengyue urged softly, looking at Ah Hong who turned around in a few steps, he remembered the despair he felt when he walked this road and couldn't help but sigh.
"Ahong, I have a way to take you back so that you can live the same or even better life as before, you can do whatever you want."
A seductive voice floated out of nowhere.
"Ah Hong, don't listen to him! If you do so, you will not be able to enter the cycle of reincarnation. Jiang Chengyue carefully searched for the source of the sound, and the faint resentment in the vicinity made him sure that there were evil ghosts in the vicinity.
"What should I do?" Ah Hong shouted at the top of his voice.
"Just run, you can leave both sides of the path, and when you see a pool, jump in. Huangquan Road is just an illusion created by these soul holders, and the pool is called Mirror Flower Water Moon, which is the node that can break this illusion. ”
When Ah Hong heard this, he seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, and hurriedly broke free from Jiang Chengyue's hand.
"Don't listen to him, Ah Hong!" Jiang Chengyue almost locked the position of the troublemaker, and guided the spiritual liquid in the spiritual spring into the river channel through the air with both palms and turned into mana, and the death scythe hung in front of him waiting for the opportunity to move.
In an instant, a lightsaber condensed in front of his chest, and the blade trembled violently between his palms, almost breaking free.
"Zheng ......"
Jiang Chengyue slapped out the lightsaber with both hands, and with a fierce sword aura, the grass and trees on the ground immediately annihilated and scattered.
A white shadow who couldn't see his face clearly was beaten out by Jiang Chengyue because he didn't have time to dodge.
"Ah Hong, you're welcome if you want to run away again!"
He had to do something to stop this sudden accident from going bad, even if it was a little bit of a feeble threat.
"Don't worry, he won't dare to do anything to you with the weapon in his hand." The white-clothed demon covered the injured area and sneered.
Jiang Chengyue's face was pale, he really didn't dare to do anything to Ah Hong, because in addition to the mourning stick, whether it was the weapon or spell in his hand now, Ah Hong would be wiped out, after all, an ordinary soul was too fragile.
I'm about to arrive at the two boundary monuments in the capital city, but I didn't expect this kind of fork to happen. Huangquan Road has always been like an exclusive seat, it is impossible for one person to have this kind of problem, and it is even more unheard of for such a thing to appear as an evil ghost, unless it ......
An ominous premonition gradually appeared in Jiang Chengyue's heart.
