"Yo, little brother, let's try the meatballs here."

"Sell masks, new masks!"

"The lottery of fifty wen is a lottery, and the prizes are huge."

Looking at this lively street as if it was a festival, Wu was also shocked and couldn't speak for a long time.

"Is this really the path of the undead?"

"Hehe, it seems that Wu Ye, you have never seen such a scene, right? It's not surprising to be surprised, after all, when you talk about the Santu River, there is a way or something like that, you must only think of the scene of silence and loneliness, right? ”

Takeya nodded wordlessly, as Komachi said, when he first heard that this was the path of the deceased to the Santu River, his first impression was of a barren land overgrown with weeds, and at best, it was just a staircase covered with stone lanterns, and he never imagined that it would be so lively.

"The dead love to be lively, too, and sometimes there are people who like festivals to visit."

With a wave of her hand, the undead hovering beside her all changed from spherical to human, and soon merged into the lively festival.

Under the awe-inspiring gaze of the dead, Komachi and Takeya crossed the path that the people had given way, and gradually, the noisy voices behind them slowly faded away, and at the same time, a long river that seemed to have no end appeared in front of them.

"Here we are, Santuhe."

"This is ......"

Wu Ye's eyes grew slightly, looking at the "river" in front of him, no, isn't it a little too arbitrary to call it "river"? In Takeya's view, this seems to be a pool of immovable stagnant water accumulated in the riverbed.

The water surface of the Santu River is still and terrifying, there is not a trace of waves, you can't feel any wind when you stretch out your hand, and the surrounding river surface is still wrapped in a strange thick fog, which is really chilling.

"It's rare to come once, do you want to go to the other side to see? If you reach that side as a living person, you might be the first one, but this time it's better if you're free. ”

"Really? Thank you so much. ”

Alerted by the trend of curiosity and a sense of death, Takeya still couldn't restrain his desires and couldn't help but step on Komachi's ship.

"Huh?"

Stepping on the unpretentious wooden boat, Takeya caught a glimpse of the reed branch that was accidentally brought into it by the corner of his clothes out of the corner of his eye, and patted it off casually, only to find that the reed branch fell on the surface of the Santu River, but could not float at all, but sank straight into the lake like a heavy lead block.

Seeing this strange scene, Wu Ye looked down at the wooden boat that was easily floating on the water under his feet, not only surprised, could it be that only this small wooden boat could float on the Santu River?

"Sit tight, Takeya."

Picking up a slender oar from the bow of the boat, Komachi used it to slide the boat in the water as if riding the wind, and in a few blinks it left the shore.

"It's so fast......"

Takeya was surprised, obviously Komachi's movements were as slow as if he hadn't eaten, but the speed of the boat was terrifyingly fast.

"Hehe, Wu Ye, don't underestimate me, I'm a god of death, and it's not easy to get to the other side quickly."

"Huh? Wouldn't you be able to paddle so fast in Komachi? ”

"Isn't that a matter of course?"

Komachi shrugged and smiled:

"Wu Ye, you must know that the Santu River originally did not have the concept of 'distance'."

"No distance?"

The look of doubt on Takeya's face was even stronger.

"What does that mean?"

"It's literal, the width or narrowness of the Santu River, whether the distance to the other side is far or near, this is not fixed, but determined by our death."

Komachi asked as he rowed the boat:

"Do you know what the job of the Grim Reaper is?"

"Isn't it the extradition of the undead on the Santu River?"

"Correct, but how extradition exclusively?"

"This ...... Isn't it just a matter of loading the soul onto a ship and transporting it there? ”

Takeya didn't understand what Komachi meant, and he thought that this question was the same as putting an elephant in the refrigerator, and it was just three steps before and after.

"No, Takeya, you're missing one of the most important links."

As he spoke, Komachi made an OK gesture with his empty left hand:

"The Grim Reaper transports the souls of the dead to the other side, and he collects the ferry money."

“...... Oh. ”

"Hey, you guy, didn't you despise us who are dead from the bottom of your heart just now?"

Takeya, who laughed angrily, was the same, and Komachi pouted:

"I said, this is a very important thing, the financial situation of hell is very bad, otherwise why do you think there are so many shops in Zhongdao, what if we ferrymen don't work hard and go bankrupt."

"Ahaha......"

The first time I heard that hell actually had a financial situation, the expression on Wu Ye's face suddenly became a little exciting.

"Money is a very important thing."

Glaring at Takeya with a preachy posture, Komachi said earnestly:

"Wu Ye, you'd better remember that the ferry money has a more important meaning, and it is related to whether the undead as a passenger can reach the other side safely."

"What? Is there anything else that can't be reached? ”

"Of course there is."

Looking at the fussing Takeya, Komachi was stunned for a moment and explained:

"The ferry money is the total amount of the soul's property during its lifetime, if it is more, then the road to the other side will become short, if it is less, the road will become longer, if the property of a soul is zero, then our god of death will throw it directly into the river."

“...... Throw, throw into the river? ”

Looking at the strange river water on both sides in disbelief, Wu also swallowed his saliva and asked:

"What happens if you get thrown in?"

"Hey, hey."

Komachi looked at Takeya with a smile and said:

"Directly below the Santu River is the deepest part of hell, what would happen if you were thrown into it, ah, by the way, the Santu River can't be swimn, which means that as long as you leave this boat, it's completely finished."

“......”

It's too sloppy, no, it's terrible!

The river water, which was originally extremely weird, was now full of ominous aura in Wu Ye's eyes, and he silently shrank his body into the middle of the boat, and then asked:

"Well, Komachi, how did you calculate the total amount of the soul's property? Savings? ”

"It's not about the property you owned during your lifetime."

Komachi shook his head and said:

"The property that a soul can possess is the sum of the money that its close people are willing to spend on it after its death."

"Do you have any burned coins or anything like that?"

"That's pretty much it."

Komachi nodded, and then said to Takeya jokingly:

"So remember to make more friends when you go back, so that when you die, you may become a rich man among the undead."

"......"

Looked away in disgust, although this is indeed a very important thing, but after thinking about it carefully, Wu Ye found that it was wrong, he was not to the point of dying, so he went so early to think about what was going to happen after death! I almost dried up this bowl of broken chicken soup......
