Chapter 4: Rebirth
It is said that Liu Hou, who received the badge, came to the end of the side street under the guidance of Liu Bantou. At first glance, there is a large square at the end of the small street, and at this end of the main square is connected to a street of snacks, and at that end is a small stone bridge. And in the square, a bunch of ghosts in the east and a bunch of ghosts in the west are all ghosts who are preparing to cross the bridge under the leadership of their respective ghosts.
"Chou!" At this time, I heard a ghost screaming on the head of the small stone bridge.
"Here! Arrive! I saw a ghost cha holding a small flag with the "Bingchou" written on it, squeezing out the group of ghosts very hard, and trotting towards the small stone bridge. The ghosts of his team hurriedly followed. The team leader handed the Qiaotou ghost a stack of small notebooks that looked like passports.
The ghost of the bridge head opened the small book, corresponding to each ghost to verify the body, and deliberately checked the badge on the chest of each ghost. Every time a ghost is verified, let him go to the bridge. Soon, the group of ghosts was released.
"Let's go." Liu Bantou walked over as he spoke.
Liu Hou hurriedly followed, thinking, "Don't we have to take the number and line up?" β
As soon as the Qiaotou ghost had finished releasing the team of ghosts and was about to call the latter number, Liu Bantou handed over a small notebook similar to a passport in a timely manner.
"You don't know the rules...... Qiaotou ghost was about to attack, Liu Bantou had already started to speak: "6-star character!" β
The ghost of the bridge almost caught a glimpse of the 6 golden five-pointed stars on the page of the small book, and choked back the rest of the words.
"No, super 5-star character, I've never seen it in so long working here." The Qiaotou ghost was also excited, took the small book with both hands, and began to look through it.
"You've only been a ghost for a few years, I don't think you've even seen a 5-star character, hehe." Liu Bantou smiled proudly.
"No wonder you only brought one person over, it turned out to be a VIP, a big shot." The ghost of the bridge head gave Liu Hou a thumbs up, turned his head to Liu Bantou and said, "But what are you proud of, VIP is not you." β
"Hehe, Lao Tzu was also a 5-star character back then, and I am the ancestor of this kid, and he is my descendant. How about it, envy it. β
"Hey, rare, rare, I really didn't see it, these 6-star characters don't look special." The ghost of Qiaotou turned over the small book and read it a few times, confirmed that it was correct, stuffed it back to Liu Bantou, pointed behind him and said, "Go over there and take the car." β
Liu Hou looked behind him and obediently, only to see a car similar to an electric sightseeing car in a tourist attraction parked there, with the words "VIP special" printed on the body.
Liu Bantou didn't say a word, and led Liu Hou to the battery car. There was a sweet-looking girl sitting in the driver's seat of the battery car, and she turned around and smiled sweetly at them, "Welcome to the VIP car." With that, she started the car and slowly drove onto the bridge.
"This is the famous Nai Ho Bridge, and through this bridge, you can reach the Hall of Reincarnation. Please look at the left, the flower that grows on the shore is called the other side flower, and its main function is to ......" As she introduced the scenery along the way from time to time, the car soon crossed the bridge and drove to a large hall with a "Reincarnation Hall" plaque.
"We have arrived at the final stop 'Reincarnation Hall', so please bring all your luggage and get off the train."
Two black lines appeared on Liu Hou's head, "If life doesn't bring death, who will go to reincarnation and carry luggage?" This driver wasn't used to being a tour guide during his lifetime, right? But it's not, it seems that Jigong brought a fan, Jia Baoyu brought a piece of jade, or I will bring something. β
Liu Hou looked down at himself, his hands were empty, and he had nothing to do, so he had to give up.
Liu Hou entered the Hall of Reincarnation under the leadership of Liu Bantou, and many ghosts in the main hall were lining up, waiting to enter a house with the words "Six Reincarnations" written on it. Before Liu Hou could see the situation clearly, he pulled Liu Bantou into a VIP room.
The VIP room is very different from the outside of the main hall, with luxurious leather sofas, a coffee table with a yellow jade countertop, and a large-screen LCD TV. There is not a single ghost waiting to be reincarnated in the entire VIP room, only a beautiful female ghost with long hair fluttering in a stewardess uniform stands behind the bar.
As soon as the female ghost saw them coming in, she walked over with Nana twisting the waist of the water snake and greeted warmly: "Welcome, please take a seat, do you need something to drink or something to eat?" β
Liu Hou was so surprised that his jaw dropped, and he thought, "Is there still a first-class seat in reincarnation?" Liu Bantou also told him to sit down and wait, and he went to go through the formalities. Liu Hou asked for a cup of milk tea, sat on the sofa leisurely and watched TV and waited.
Liu Bantou took out a small notebook similar to a passport, handed it to the female ghost in the stewardess suit, and said, "Xiaoli, it's boring to work in this VIP room." No, this is his ID, you can verify it. β
Xiaoli took the certificate and smiled sweetly, "Brother Liu, you revolve around Xiaolan all day long, ignoring others, of course people are bored." He winked at him. Then he said: "I haven't come to this VIP for 10 years, but today I met one for you, it's really lucky." β
"This kid is the descendant of our surname Liu, or where will it be my turn."
"Then congratulations to Brother Liu, your Liu family has another big man."
"Where is this kid a big man, he is just a small person in the tenth life, but he has done good deeds and accumulated virtue in the tenth life, and this time he will be given VIP treatment."
Xiao Li was chatting with Liu Bantou, while inserting Liu Hou's documents into the scanning port of a machine, only to hear the sound of "drop", the scan was successful, and some of Liu Hou's information was displayed on the computer screen.
"Oh, it's not time for him to drink Meng Po soup yet, and he has to wait for a while." Xiaoli said.
It turned out that after drinking Meng Po soup, it would take a while for the medicinal effect to attack, and the ghost would gradually forget the events of his previous life. According to the normal situation, after the ghost drank the Meng Po soup, he walked across the Nai He Bridge to this reincarnation hall, and then lined up to enter the six reincarnations, which was enough time for the Meng Po soup to attack. But Liu Hou came by car, and because of his VIP status, he didn't have enough time.
Then, Liu Bantou and Xiao Lidong chatted sentence by sentence, waiting for the time to pass. After a while, Liu Hou felt dizzy, and he couldn't help but hold his head with his hands, lean on the sofa and close his eyes.
It turned out that although Liu Hou didn't drink the bowl of "Wang Laoji", he also dipped some imports. Although most of it was spit out, the medicinal effect of Meng Po Tang was very powerful, and Liu Hou was still affected by a certain amount of dΓΉ. Now that the effect of the medicine has taken effect, Liu Hou feels dizzy and confused, and he begins to gradually forget his experience in the underworld, fortunately, he only dipped a small amount of Meng Po soup into his mouth, and most of the memories of his previous life can still be preserved.
At this time, Xiaoli looked at the time, looked at Liu Hou's watch, and said, "It's almost, please let Brother Liu take him in." Liu Bantou looked at Liu Hou and nodded, "Hmm." As he spoke, he walked over and picked up Liu Hou, and entered a room through a small door.
That room has only one machine that resembles a gossip turntable, and there is a chair in the middle of the machine. Liu Bantou put Liu Hou on the chair and helped him buckle his seat belt. Finally, he patted him on the head and said, "Son, go over there and have a good time, I hope you don't be like me, and finally get rid of that eternal laughing stock." With that, he walked out of the room.
Outside this room, there is also a small room, and there is a small sign at the door of the small room that reads "Control zhì room". In this control room, Liu Hou can be seen sitting on a chair in the middle of the machine through a glass of glass, as if he was going to the hospital to take an X-ray.
There are 2 ghosts in the control room, one of which is a young ghost with thick eyes who is quickly pressing various buttons on a machine, and the old one is playing Plants vs. Zombies with Erlang's legs crossed on the side, holding something similar to an iPad. After about a quarter of an hour, the young ghost raised his head and said to the old ghost, "Director, I have finished the calculation, you can check it." β
"Okay, okay, there's a big group of zombies coming, don't bother me, it's not the first time you've made a mistake, the first dozen times have not been wrong, I can trust you. Hurry up and send him out, and get us done sooner so we can call it a day. I still have something to do after work. "The old ghost head doesn't either, and plays the game on his own.
"Oh...... All right. The young ghost hesitated for a moment, wanted to speak, and finally didn't continue to say anything, held his eyes with his hand, entered the calculated parameters into the machine, and pressed the start button.
Liu Hou's machine began to rotate, and as the machine turned around, there was a colorful light around the machine.
I saw that the machine turned faster and faster, and the light became thicker and thicker, and finally turned into a light cocoon, when the machine turned to the extreme, and the light cocoon looked almost materialized, only the sound of "rest" was heard, and then, the light cocoon began to dissipate, and the machine began to slow down. Finally, when the light dissipated, I saw that Liu Hou on the chair had disappeared.
At this time, the young ghost said, "The target is fired." Director, we can get off work. β
"Okay, great, I've finally cleared the level, and I've finally killed this ultimate boss. Hahaha! "The old ghost danced with his hands.
After the excitement, he patted the young ghost on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Li, you have done a good job, you have come to the internship for the past few days, and every time you calculate the coordinates accurately, you are worthy of being a ...... of the Department of Mathematics of Tsinghua University before you died" Before he finished speaking, his eyes just swept to a row of numbers on the machine, and he was dumbfounded.
"What?" I saw a string of numbers on the machine: 20809060763...... "This, this, have you sent people to 208?" Damn it! The old ghost broke out in a cold sweat, "You can't mistake 2008 for 208, do you?" "What a mistake this is, the old ghost has the heart to die, even though he has actually died once.
"Don't be nervous, director, this is a VIP, there is a special order issued by the Ten Halls of Yama, and he is going to be reincarnated in the Three Kingdoms era. Look at this article. As he spoke, the young ghost took out Liu Hou's documents.
The old ghost took the certificate suspiciously, and when he saw it, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. "It's okay, it's okay, it's a privilege to travel through time and space. This kind of example is rare in a hundred years, how much virtue does this kid have to accumulate to get such treatment. β
After speaking, he suddenly became nervous: "No, after nearly 2,000 years, this kind of coordinate calculation is extremely difficult, although you are a mathematical genius, but after all, you have no experience, I will review it." With that, the old ghost sat down in front of the machine and began to calculate. Counting it, I couldn't help frowning.
When the young ghost saw the old ghost's face, he couldn't help but get nervous, "Director, there's nothing wrong." β
Half-sounded, the old ghost breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, you only got one number wrong, it's not a very critical number, the time of his reincarnation will be delayed by a year, he has special access permissions, and it is still possible to occupy the target's body in the past." For a one-year-old child, a small change should not be very noticeable. β
The young ghost looked at the number pointed by the old ghost and began to ponder, wondering in his heart what was wrong.
The old ghost patted him on the back of the head, "Okay, okay, don't get entangled, the difficulty of calculating coordinates with such a large time span is not something that an intern like you can do, and it is not easy for you to do this kind of process, but you have to remember that if you miscalculate a number, this matter will end here, and it will rot in the stomach, and you can't mention it to anyone. The old ghost suddenly became stern.
"Yes, yes, I understand!" The young ghost lifted the frame of his glasses and nodded hurriedly.
