Walking on the road, this is my plan. First, I'll go into Wanshage to see if they have the life insurance money I urgently need. Anyway, I have to wait until the Black hegemon auction ends, because Black hegemon's target is those who have won treasures, so I estimate that Black hegemon won't show up until the auction is over. Thinking about it, it suits my intentions perfectly, saving myself and saving Arrogant without delay.
I hope Black hegemon won't be too difficult to deal with. It can ask for however much money it wants, as long as it returns Arrogant to me. Oh, speaking of Arrogant again, I suddenly remembered a crucial issue - I forgot to buy a ticket for Arrogant. So even if I find Arrogant, I'll have to leave Arrogant inside.
Oh my, look at the kind of extreme mistake I've made. No, no, this shouldn't be blamed on me. If anyone is to blame, it's that greedy monk. How could he be so greedy and not remind me? It's really unreasonable. If I had bought the ticket for Arrogant, maybe I wouldn't be in such a hurry now. Just wait for twelve hours to pass, and Arrogant will pop out just like me, in the underworld, or Hades.
This is not right to say. There shouldn't be such a loophole. Could it be that the thing in this collar can't be seen by greed at all? According to him, this collar is a treasure that only top ancient sects have. Could it be that he doesn't have the ability to see that there's a living thing hidden in this treasure? Oh my, if that's the case, it's not good.
Alas! What should I do now? If I go back to get another ticket, I don't even know if they offer ticket replacements.
Forget it, it seems like this is the only way to go now. Otherwise, even if I reach Wanshage and negotiate with Black Hegemon and make a deal, Arrogant will still be after me. So the most urgent thing for me now is to have the courage to go back to that temple and talk to the monk Greed about getting another ticket.
Thinking of this, I immediately stopped in front of ten bodyguards and Dark Dragon, who looked puzzled, and walked back. The ten bodyguards had a strong sense of professional ethics and didn't ask a single question, even though they were curious. As for Dark Dragon, he didn't speak at all, and I was too lazy to explain to them, so our group walked back in a very oppressive manner.
Just as we had walked a few steps, we ran into smart aleck head-on. From a distance, he shouted in surprise, "Yuan Yuan, why didn't you go to the Wanshage auction? Instead, you're walking back. I was thinking that I have nothing to do right now, so I might as well follow you and see the excitement. It's rare to meet someone who catches my eye. Oh, it's really annoying. Just caught up, and you're walking back. Or do you think it would be more fun to bring me along, deliberately coming to pick me up, haha..."
By the way, this guy is known as the all-knowing one. I can consult with him to get a better idea. So, I ignored his shameless cute expression and immediately stopped my steps back, urgently asking smart aleck, "Do you know if souls like us who forgot to buy tickets when entering can make up for it later?"
"Make up for it later? Yuan Yuan, have you been drinking or have a fever? But looking at your appearance, it doesn't seem like it. So, you haven't drunk too much or have a fever. Could it be that you're just joking with me? I've been around for thousands of years, and I've never heard of a living soul being able to slip through the Ghost gate guard. Are you sure you want to ask about this, um... it should be considered a brainless question." smart aleck seemed to be familiar with me and replied without giving me any face.
At the same time, he didn't mention the issue of money again. It seems that he really considers me as one of his own, casually answering my questions without bringing up the issue of payment. I went along with it, keeping this in mind and thinking that I would repay the favor in the future if I had the chance. With this in mind, I shook my head and said, "No, it's not like that, it's like this..."
So I briefly explained my arrogant situation and then looked earnestly at the smart aleck again, hoping to get useful information from him, preferably good news.
"It's impossible. The ghost guards don't use their own abilities to observe whether a soul has entered. They have specific instruments to detect the lifespan of incoming souls. It's just that the instruments are invisible, so you can't see them," shaking my head again, I heard the news I least wanted to hear.
This is bad, was my first reaction. My second reaction was that things were really going to be a big deal. Arrogant couldn't be saved, and even if he was, it wouldn't be the same. Why do impossible things always happen to me? And it's never anything good. If it were something good, that would be nice. I suddenly felt lifeless.
"Yuan Yuan, is it really that serious? If things are really as you say, then there's only one possibility, right?" smart aleck intentionally paused here, trying to catch my attention and make me perk up.
Sure enough, I didn't disappoint him. I immediately became alert and asked eagerly, "What possibility? Is there still a chance to save Arrogant?"
"What's the point of saving it? What I mean is, if they didn't stop you from collecting its ticket, it means it originally belonged here and didn't need a ticket." The words spoken by smart aleck once again deeply hurt my fragile heart.
But it seems that what he said is true. Arrogant himself said that it actually had a miraculous resurrection after death, but the specifics are unknown. It seems its owner doesn't allow it to speak. Could this be related to Arrogant's background? So, is there still a way to save Arrogant? What should I do? I find myself going in circles, back to not knowing what to do. Suddenly, I find myself pulling at my hair, turning it into a mess.
"Alas! Alas! Alas! That Yuan Yuan, even if you're unhappy, don't ruin such good hair. Whether as a human or a ghost, no matter what you encounter, you should always try to be open-minded. Isn't there a saying in your human world, 'When you reach the end of the mountain and water, and doubt there's no way, suddenly there's a village with bright flowers on the willow bank'? Perhaps when you least expect it, the Arrogant you mentioned will appear in front of you. Let's go to the auction and see what new things are there," smart aleck said, seeing me in such a state.
After thinking about it, I also felt that no matter how despondent I am now, it won't solve the problem. It's better to look forward. Perhaps when the time comes, all the problems will be solved. I forced myself to perk up and nodded. I started following smart aleck to the legendary Wanshage once again.
"Yuan Yuan, don't look so downcast. You'll get old and ugly like this." smart aleck joked when he saw my worried expression.
I forced a smile and said, "Stop teasing me, smart aleck. I really don't feel like laughing, sigh."
"Yuan Yuan, look, there's a pig in a suit in front of Wanshage, haha... so funny..." As soon as I said that, I heard smart aleck laughing happily and pointing in the direction of Wanshage.
Without even looking up, I casually said, "Oh!" and that was the end of it. Actually, deep down, I thought he was just saying that to make me happy.
Upon seeing this, the smart aleck walked up to my side and shook my arm, saying, "Yuan Yuan, I'm serious. There really is a pig in a suit in front of Wanshage's door. It's hilarious, you have to see it, just one look."
Seeing the smart aleck trying so hard to amuse me, I was touched and immediately pretended to be very interested, nodding and saying, "Really? Let me take a look then. If there really is a pig in a suit, it must be quite amusing."
I didn't expect that as soon as I looked up, I really arrived at the front of the Wanshage gate. And in front of the Wanshage gate, there really was a pig standing like a human, wearing a pure black suit, and sunglasses, standing straight at the entrance, as if guarding it. But I thought to myself, didn't smart aleck say there was no guard at the Wanshage gate?
So I dared to lower my head and quietly asked smart aleck, " smart aleck, didn't you say there was no guard here? Then what's the deal with this pig in a suit? Is this a new position in The underworld, or Hades., or is he the Heavenly Marshal disguising himself for an undercover visit to the Underworld?"
"Yuan Yuan, your imagination is really high. I can say this: neither of these two possibilities is correct. This is the highest-level Emcee of the Underworld. In other words, today's Wanshage will have high-level officials from the Underworld, or a particularly powerful overlord from one side, as well as the leader of a faction coming. If that's the case, we'll be able to feast our eyes again. Yuan Yuan, you may not know this, but in our Underworld, it's extremely rare to have the good fortune of meeting high-level officials from the Underworld, or a particularly powerful overlord from one side, as well as the leader of a faction. You should know that anyone from the Underworld who holds power, or a particularly powerful overlord from one side, or the leader of a faction, possesses extraordinary magic and energy. Just catching a glimpse from afar can bring blessings for a day," smart aleck suddenly changed the cheerful tone from before, with hearts in their eyes.
"If that's the case, doesn't that mean I'll also be blessed for a day, and have luckiness for a day?" I asked nervously. If that's the case, does it mean that my wishes will come true, and Arrogant will appear in front of me soon?
In theory, that's how it is. In reality, it depends on one's luck. If you're not destined to enjoy it, even if you're given good fortune, it's useless. smart aleck blurted out without thinking, and in an instant, I felt like I was struck by lightning, almost exploding in anger.
"Damn it! Can't you say something nice? I thought you were a friend, but it turns out you're a bad influence on me. How can I bear this?" I thought bitterly in my heart.
"Maybe you noticed that I didn't look right," smart aleck quickly changed his tune and said, "Hey, hey, I was just joking with you. Yes, you will definitely have luckiness and everything will go your way today!"
"Then I'll take your kind words!" My cloudy face immediately cleared up, and I once again considered him a friend.
Look at how quickly I change my expression. smart aleck is speechless. Just as I was about to say something, suddenly I saw the pig in a suit walking down the stairs in front of the Wanshage gate, walking towards us. This surprised me, and I immediately looked at smart aleck. Could it be that he came to pick up this being that has existed for thousands of years and still acts young? Looking at his calm appearance, I thought, how could this guy not even tip? It turns out that master was just teasing me, and I suddenly felt angry.
"Here comes Queen of the Underworld!" Suddenly I heard the pig in a suit shouting loudly, which made me feel ashamed. I was wrong. No matter what, smart aleck couldn't be a woman. So I quickly turned around and searched around to see what Queen of the Underworld looked like. I never thought that today, I would be so lucky to meet the legendary queen of The underworld, or Hades.
But there's no one around, or is it that the Queen of the Underworld can turn invisible? I was puzzled and asked smart aleck, "Hey, smart aleck, where is the King of the Underworld? Why can't I see him?"
"Haha, so you are the Queen of the Underworld. I really have poor eyesight, didn't recognize your presence. Please don't be offended," the tables turned, and now it was smart aleck who was annoyed. He answered evasively, looking quite miffed, and deliberately took a few steps back to keep his distance from me.
