Chapter 200: Civil Servants

I sat at the table with my chin in my hands and watched the drama with Zhou Xiaoqin, but I was a little lacking in spirit, and in the afternoon, I accompanied my mother to the market to buy the ingredients to be used tonight, and after I came back, I began to look forward to Xie Bi'an's return.

said that he would not let me have a regretful New Year, but now that the person is gone, he shook his head helplessly and stood up to pour a glass of water.

Zhou Xiaoqin watched the drama and was fascinated and didn't notice that I got up, I took the water glass and walked out, but I bumped into a warm embrace.

"Why do you walk with your head down?"

Looking up in surprise: "You're back!" ”

It was Xie Bi'an who came back, and it was only five o'clock when he looked at it, and he came back quite early, at least he could catch the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and he was worried that he would not be able to come back tonight.

He smiled and nodded: "I'll be back when the matter is settled." ”

As he spoke, he looked down at me and took the cup from my hand: "I'll go pour water, I have something to ask you for your thoughts." ”

Looking at him curiously, he had already turned around and gone to the kitchen, and soon came out with my cup and motioned for me to go out to talk, took the cup from his hand and warmed his hand and followed him out of the yard.

At this time, there were already a lot of children setting off firecrackers, and Xie Bi'an seemed to be trying to tell me something secret, and the sound of these firecrackers was just enough to cover us.

He looked around, looking a little mysterious, looked back at me and said, "Do you want to go to the underworld to be a ghost?" ”

I was surprised and asked, "What the hell?" Can I also go on an errand? ”

He smiled and nodded: "The underworld wants to expand the ghost mission, I just ask you what you think, if you want to be it, I can give you a place." ”

Isn't this just going through the back door?,Speaking of which, this ghost is also a civil servant.,Iron rice bowl and being a ghost should have a lot of rights to deal with those ghosts.,But I have a question.,Isn't it only ghosts who can be ghosts?

He must have seen my doubts, and shook his head with a smile: "It's not that only ghosts can be ghosts, it's just that ordinary people have no way to be ghosts, and the underworld rarely recruits ghosts." ”

"And why this time?"

He pondered for a moment and sighed and said: "The powerful ghosts in the eighteenth layer of hell suddenly made trouble, so the manpower of the underworld is a little insufficient, and many of the ghosts who are responsible for seducing souls have all been arranged by me to come back to guard those powerful ghosts, so I need to add some ghosts to be responsible for the task of seducing souls." ”

I nodded in surprise, isn't it the same as my current job, it's just one more name, and I'm sure it's as simple as more than one name.

Sure enough, before I could ask, he took out a jade token from his arms, handed it to me and said: "This is the identity token of the ghost, in the future, you can directly open the portal of the underworld without overtaking, and you don't have to worry about being pulled in by those powerful ghosts, you can go out directly with this token." ”

Stretched out his hand and took the token, held it in his hand and observed, it was still a little cold to the hand, but it was soon covered by me and I looked at the words engraved on it - ghost!

But I didn't understand it at the first time, but Xie Bi'an told me that this word is the meaning of the oracle bone ghost word, so I can understand.

After receiving the token, I am a ghost in the underworld, according to Xie Bi'an's meaning, let me go to the full-time soul hook, after all, I still have to attend classes in school now, I can't just stay in the underworld to guard those ghosts.

Xie Bi'an explained to me some things that need to be paid attention to when a ghost errand turned around and entered the door, and I followed in, and at this time my mother had already prepared tonight's meal, and set up a table in the courtyard to prepare for serving.

Xie Bi'an definitely couldn't just stand at the door and watch, and hurriedly stepped forward to help, my mother smiled and refused to let him sit first, I went into my room and called Zhou Xiaoqin out, and put the token in my bag, which I couldn't use for the time being.

After finishing the work, they went out, they were already sitting in the courtyard, Zhou Xiaoqin beckoned to me: "Come on, aunt made a lot of delicious food today!" ”

Sitting down on the chair, Xie Bi'an was next to me, and suddenly stretched out his chopsticks and pinched a shrimp for me, which was raised by my father after contracting the back mountain, and I just went to catch it today, it was very fresh.

I didn't expect him to help me peel off the shrimp shell, if you just picked up vegetables, it would be fine, but if you peel it back for me, it will be easy for people to think about it.

Dad was still eating with his head down, and he didn't pay attention to his mobile phone from time to time, but my mother kept picking up vegetables for us, and this time I collided with Xie Bi'an, and a piece of meat on the chopsticks was originally going to be put into my bowl, but seeing Xie Bi'an peeling shrimp for me, I turned the chopsticks and put them in Dad's bowl.

He smiled at me when he was done, and I couldn't defend it, so I could only eat honestly, Xie Bi'an didn't care, and after peeling one, he actually picked up another one, which made me very embarrassed.

At this time, I suddenly remembered that I didn't know if Yu Qing and they had gone back for the New Year, so I stood up and called her, waved my hand and said to my mother and walked to the door.

"Hello? Masters? ”

"Huh? Chloe! ”

Yu Qing didn't react at first, and waited for a while before replying, I glanced back at my parents and them, they were all eating, and my father had already pulled Xie Bi'an to prepare to go to the back room to help the TV out.

turned around and continued to say to Yu Qing: "Well, it's me, senior sister, have you gone home for the New Year?" ”

Yu Qing smiled bitterly: "There are still a lot of things to be busy here, I have already put them all back, and now I and a few people from the research institute are still here, just make do with it at night." ”

I said admiringly: "Then you are really hard, won't your parents pester you to go back?" ”

She muttered for a moment, but did not answer me, and I suddenly had some premonition that I had said the wrong thing, and sure enough, after a moment she smiled wryly and said, "My parents and they...... I passed away when I was very young, and I grew up with my master. ”

I hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect ...... either"

"It doesn't matter, I've gotten used to it for so many years, at most I'm going back to see the master, and now there are still a lot of things here that I need to be present to watch, so just call her and say something."

When it comes to the underground palace, I think of Liang Nannan, so when she finished speaking, I asked directly: "Liang Nannan, are they cooperating with your work?" ”

Originally, she was a little sad, probably because she remembered her parents, but when I talked about Liang Nannan, she laughed: "She has now made us the behind-the-scenes planning of the excavation project!" ”
