Chapter 1 Actually, I refused at first
Tang Bai has been an orphan since he was a child, and with the help of the state, he is 22 years old this year! What about his current profession, he is a little singer who is not in the stream, he has been a singer since he was 20 years old, and he is still a little handsome, but unfortunately, I don't know if he is not talented, and he can't be famous. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info he also wants to be famous, and he also wants to enter the stream, so that he can make money, but this is the way of the world.
However, now that he has become a hero, without him, a penny is difficult to defeat a hero!
"Tang Bai! You are limited to pay the rent today! Or get out! ”
Tang Bai looked back, and sure enough, the landlord and aunt stood with a look of disdain, and the landlord uncle behind the landlord had a helpless expression.
Tang Bai stretched out three fingers and said with a smile: "Auntie, how about a grace period of three days, just three days?" ”
The landlord's aunt roared: "Three days? How many times have you said that? Just today! If you don't pay it, get out of here! ”
Tang Bai clasped his hands together and pleaded: "Auntie, please, it's only three days, this time it's true!" If you don't pay in three days, I'll go by myself! ”
The landlady looked at Tang Bai with suspicious eyes, "Really? Don't think that if you are a little handsome, I will be soft-hearted, and you will not be able to pay the rent when the time comes, but don't blame me for being ruthless. ”
"Really! I'll send four" Tang Bai nodded hurriedly and stretched out four fingers to send four.
Seeing this, the landlord didn't say anything anymore, and went back to her room with a tiger face. Tang Bai wiped the sweat from his forehead, and for the time being, he could deal with the past.
When the landlady saw that his tigress had returned to the room, he comforted Tang Bai and said, "She's like that, it's good to get used to it, but, Xiaobai, you should also find a job, it's not a matter to be a singer, it's better to find a serious job." ”
Tang Bai nodded, "I know, uncle, I'll go first." With that, he walked out of the apartment. The landlord treated him relatively well, knowing that he was an orphan, half of the rent was freed, and now he was in arrears for three months, and what he said just now was just to make him stop dwelling on singing, find a job, and not always live so miserably.
Shaking his head, Tang Bai took out a piece of paper with an address and a song on it, Liuxi Road Funeral Home, touched his pocket, a five-yuan bill, and a five-cent coin, and then... No, this is his full net worth, yes, there is no money for a taxi. The bus doesn't seem to be able to afford it, fortunately, it's not far from here, it's about an hour's walk, just stay and eat a few buns, Li Bai has planned it.
Since Tang Bai was not famous, no one invited him to sing, so he had to work part-time.
Some people like to invite people at the funeral home to sing songs that they loved to listen to when they died. But who likes to sing to the dead? It's unlucky to say this, so there are few people who can promise to sing at the farewell ceremony, even those who are not famous.
But Tang Bai is short of money, so he doesn't care if he is unlucky, and he will talk about this job.
It was close to 10 o'clock in the morning when I came to the funeral home, and a middle-aged woman in her thirties was waiting at the door, and it was this woman who introduced this part-time job to Tang Bai.
As soon as the middle-aged woman saw Tang Bai, she hurriedly greeted her, "You are finally here, hurry, follow me, the ceremony will start immediately." ”
Tang Bai was pulled to the venue in a daze, there were indeed a lot of people who came to see him off, the host was saying the last farewell words, Tang Bai only heard the host say, "The ceremony starts now, please stand solemnly and mourn in silence!" Played! ”
The middle-aged woman said to Tang Bai, "It's your turn, sing it." ”
Tang Bai straightened his clothes to make himself look more solemn, stepped up to the hosting stage, and began to sing.
After the song, but three or four minutes, Tang Bai looked at everyone in the audience, the effect of singing this time seemed to be particularly good, the people in the audience all lowered their heads and listened quietly, Tang Bai looked back at the middle-aged woman, and found that she was also like those people in the audience, bowing her head and not speaking, it seems that she sang well, and she can get a lot of red envelopes this time.
"Not bad, not bad." A voice rang out. Tang Bai subconsciously looked towards the sound, and a handsome man in a black Hanfu was standing at the door of the auditorium, still clapping his hands and "popping".
Tang Bai nodded and expressed his gratitude, he didn't plan to say anything, after all, there were so many people in the audience,
"You don't have to worry about them, they won't know anything."
Tang Bai squinted and looked at him, "What do you mean?" ”
"It means they're dead now."
Tang Bai looked at everyone in the audience and was shocked to find that everyone in the audience was lifeless, like dead people, lifeless.
"Who are you!?" Tang Bai suppressed the horror in his heart and asked.
"Me? You can call me Hades, and of course you can call me the Position Hades or the Grim Reaper. ”
"Are you the Grim Reaper?"
"That's right."
"May I ask what Lord Death is up to?" Tang Bai couldn't figure out what this guy who claimed to be the god of death wanted to do.
"I'm here because of you."
"Me?" Tang Bai pointed at himself suspiciously.
"Yes, it's because of you." The Grim Reaper looked affirmative.
"What's wrong with me?"
"You have the potential to be a part of our kingdom of the dead."
"What? I'm still so young, I don't want to die so early! Tang Bai was so frightened that his face turned white.
"Uh... That's not what I meant," the Grim Reaper touched his nose in pain.
"What does that mean? Let's say okay first, I don't want to die yet. I'm not going to do anything that wants to die. Tang Bai looked at the Grim Reaper vigilantly, and there was a posture of slipping away without saying a word, but in front of the Grim Reaper, could he escape?
"I mean, you're perfect to be a profession in our Realm of the Dead, don't worry, you don't have to die, and you can even live longer."
"What's that?"
"Necromantic Chanter, a very noble profession in the Dead Realm!"
"What's that?"
"You won't understand what he means now, but you'll know when you do. Don't worry, I won't pit you. Death looked sincere.
"Am I in any interest?"
"Absolutely!" The Grim Reaper proudly said, "You can live longer!" Your lifespan will be greatly extended. And, it's a full-fledged job! You will enjoy the feasts of the land of the dead! This is not a treatment that ordinary people can have. Moreover, you can also cultivate, completely get rid of mortal bodies, and become a god who can override mortals! The Grim Reaper looked at Tang Bai confidently, with so many benefits, he didn't believe that Li Bai was still unmoved!
"Can it make me popular?" Tang Bai asked the god of death with a look of hope.
"Uh..."The Grim Reaper suddenly felt that it was a wrong decision to come to Tang Bai, is this the point? He even paid attention to this?
"Yes in a sense."
"Then I can have a lot of money?" Tang Bai's eyes were about to pop up with red tickets.
"That's right! That's for sure, your idea is too cheap. "Death has a black line on his face.
"In this case, it's not impossible." Tang Bai thought about it.
"What else are you thinking about? This is the civil servant of the Death Nation, the job is guaranteed, and it is absolutely trustworthy! "Death is impatient.
"Such a good thing to find me? Why am I still a little unconvinced? Tang Bai's face was full of disbelief.
"You're destined for me, so I found you." Death had a sincere expression on his face.
"That," Tang Bai looked at the face of the god of death and found that it was okay, so he asked cautiously, "Can you make me think for two days?" ”
"Such a good thing, do you still have to think about it?" The Grim Reaper is unbelievable,
"It's not too good, I've got to take it slowly,"
"No, if you don't have this position today, you don't even want to go." Seeing that the temptation could not be done, the Grim Reaper began to threaten.
"Look, you're in a hurry! We are all civilized people, you are like this, I... I should be, I can't do it, how to get it, you tell me. Tang Bai saw the stool slowly rising behind the god of death, and decisively changed his words,
"That's right, it cost me so much saliva, look at your left wrist, there is a sign on it, drip it with your blood, and you will know the rest of the information. That's it, I'll go first, I'm optimistic about you, boy! The Grim Reaper gave Tang Bai a meaningful look.
Before Tang Bai could come back to his senses, the Grim Reaper suddenly left, "And them!" Just thinking about it, a voice came from behind, "Tang Bai, after singing, you come down first," it was the middle-aged woman, "Okay," Tang Bai whispered and agreed, and walked off the stage.
After getting off the stage, Tang Bai was still in a trance, feeling that everything before was so unreal, and suddenly, he thought of what the Grim Reaper said, and hurriedly tore off the sleeve of his left hand, which had a black flame symbol on it.
