Pendulum Rider

△Yangjian△

Jiugui Liu was a very humane person during his lifetime. Later, he was betrayed by both his wife and friends, and then killed them. No interest, no desire.During his tenure as Pluto, he formulated a set of "New Hell Laws" to make hell more orderly.

During his reign, he finally saw the world clearly, and observed everything in the world indifferently, without showing the slightest interest in anything. In the eyes of others, he may be a lonely and pitiful person, but he himself is Disapproval.

He has never regretted that he killed his wife and friends. Since he started to help with business affairs in the underworld, he can often see his dead wife and friends reincarnated, and because of a coincidence, they become a pair of lovers again. At that time, he saw it through the evil mirror. The evil mirror can see the life of the undead, and find out the crimes from it, and convict the undead. In pairs, even if they are reincarnated into the same gender, they will still appear together in front of the nine ghosts after death, waiting to be reincarnated again. Although the nine ghosts recognize them, they have no impression of the nine ghosts, and they don't remember being hacked and killed by the nine ghosts in the first place Things.

Jiugui often wears a black bathrobe, with a knife hanging around his waist. The blood on the knife cannot be wiped off. After years of baptism, the bloody smell on the knife has become more intense. It is his wife and friends. The blood, the strong resentment of the dead emanating from the knife, seems to kill him at any time, but he has no fear of it, his own knife will not hurt himself, only this kind of inanimate object is worth Reliable, but later he also met a trustworthy subordinate.

What he often does in his spare time are things that he developed into a habit during his lifetime, such as drinking tea, drinking alcohol, appreciating cherry blossoms, maple leaves, snow, moon, dancing swords, and writing waka with a brush.Occasionally, he would go to the underworld to investigate, or stay in the underworld, reading books to pass the time.

This time, he stayed in the underworld for too long and couldn't go back. His old acquaintance Lilith developed a medicine for him. As long as he drinks it on the day of Ghost Festival, he can return to the underworld.

He doesn't know how the underworld has changed, maybe it is developing as rapidly as this world.

Seeing that the Ghost Festival is getting closer, Jiu Gui became a little uneasy. He was worried that he would still not be able to return that day. Although he didn't say it, Lilith could see his uneasiness.

"Can't you still trust me? I used to go to the underworld regularly, and you warned me not to stay there for too long, or I won't be able to go back to the underworld."

Since the death of Lilith's sister, she has developed a fake death drug, and often goes to the underworld to find her sister's trace. Although she knows that her sister can't return, she still wants to find her and talk to her, so Lily Silk also claimed that she was dedicated to running hell for 30 years.

"Have you found your sister?" As for Lilith's situation, the Nine Ghosts, who had served as the king of Hades, still knew something about it, "Why don't you go to the hell in Europe, wasn't she burned to death by humans in Europe? "

"Actually, I also asked the masters of the European hell, and they said that there is no news of my sister."

"Then will she be like me, floating in the Yang world?"

"If this is the case, there are almost no people I can't find through the pendulum. I found you with the pendulum. Although there are exceptions, there are still people I can't find, such as the whereabouts of Lunmei, but I have nothing to do with you. My sister has telepathy, if she is really still in this world, I will definitely be able to know where she is."

"I'll look for it for you after I go back."

"Then trouble you."

Jiu Gui, who has been "living" for a long time, has gradually lost the concept of time, that's why he forgot the time to go back in the mortal world. On the way back, he met his former "wife", who was just his "friend" "We haven't found each other yet, so Jiugui stayed near the woman who didn't know him, waiting for the appearance of his "friend". They often met because of the attraction of fate, but this time the encounter came a bit late I didn't wait for my "friend", and when I suddenly woke up, I found that I had been in the yang world for too long, and I couldn't go back.

As Ghost Festival approached, the Japanese also had a holiday. Some Japanese who returned home caused congestion on the highway, and some people working in Tokyo returned to Fukuoka, but these have nothing to do with Kuki, who is about to return. I have reached the place where I should go.

On the day of Ghost Festival, Nine Ghosts took a large cup of potion from Lilith. The potion exuded a icy breath, which made people easily think of death.

Jiugui held up the cup and drank the potion. When the potion slid down his throat, he felt that all the nerves in his body were paralyzed. The throat began to feel cold, and he gradually lost all senses. He let go of his hand, and when the cup was about to fall to the ground, Lilith caught the cup with the power of her pendulum. Although the cup was very ordinary and not worth much, to Lilith, any unnecessary loss was necessary. Avoided.

When Jiugui's body fell on the basement floor, he didn't make a dull sound, his body was slowly disappearing, it looked as if his body was gradually absorbed by the floor, or "sinking under the floor". appropriate.

His body is approaching the world on the other side. Although he temporarily lost his five senses and hearing, Lilith still said goodbye to him: "See you next time, the underworld has changed too much, so be careful not to find your way. You should remind me of this sooner." your."

After Lilith's task was completed, she began to pack her luggage and prepare to go back to Shanghai. Tachibana Yukito, who came to Kyushu with her earlier, seemed to have returned at the beginning of this month. He went abroad either to work as a pediatrician on the surface, or for another Lilith is not interested in this secret work, she just wants to continue to search for her dead sister.

When Jiugui opened his eyes again, he was already in the underworld. He came back after a long absence, and he felt a sense of excitement of returning to his hometown. His emotions rarely fluctuated as violently as now.

He is finally back!

He must see his aide immediately.

Thinking this way, he came to the gate of the underworld. He remembered that this gate was a very ordinary wooden gate, but now it looks very similar to the gates of some local tyrants in the Yang world.

The guard at the door is lazily hiding under the sun umbrella, watching the MV videos of the underworld beauty idols on his mobile phone to cool off, and at the same time opening the door for the undead who come to reincarnate. Jiugui doesn't know him, it seems that he is here Worked after resignation.

On the other side of the gate, there is a three-headed dog that is so hot that it sticks out its tongue. Has the underworld ever been this hot?

Jiu Gui clearly remembered that the underworld is a very cool place. When all his senses recovered, he felt that this place was even hotter than the Yang world. Although it is indeed summer, it is abnormal for the underworld to be so hot.

The three-headed dog Cerberus usually maintains a human appearance, perhaps because it is too hot, he has turned back to a dog.

After he smelled a familiar smell, he didn't even lift up any of his three heads. He was still lying on the ground, sticking out his tongue to dissipate heat, and just blinked three pairs of eyes, as if to say, "Master Nine Ghosts, welcome!" return."

The guard on the other side, who was watching the video, didn't notice the identity of the person in front of him at all. He thought Jiu Gui was an ordinary undead, so he kept looking at his phone while opening the gate of Hades for him.

The return of the Nine Ghosts will heat up the underworld, which has long been too hot. Many ghost soldiers who know the Nine Ghosts rushed to tell each other and brought him to the current office building of the Hades. Even the Queen of the Underworld came from her mansion Went out to see him.

As a result, the Nine Ghosts, the Empress of the Underworld, Li Yan, and the Assistant Officer gathered in Hades' office to discuss future matters. Other high-level officials of the underworld waited anxiously outside the door. They also wanted to know what happened next to each other. Working arrangements.

In the office, Nine Ghosts stared straight at Li Yan, the young Pluto, making him a little hairy.

"What do you plan to do in the future? Do you want to stay here and continue working, or do you have other plans?" Jiugui asked.

Li Yan felt that he had an aura that was not easy to provoke, so he didn't dare to speak rashly.

"Lilith delivered him to me last time, and asked me to help him solve the problem of reincarnation." The queen of the underworld replied instead of him.

"Really? That's out of my jurisdiction."

"So when will you announce to the outside world that Pluto has changed?"

"About these days."

"Anyway, I'm basically in charge. Pluto's handover work won't be too cumbersome. As for the group of eavesdropping people outside, their work will be done as usual, and they will make a decision after Master Nine Ghosts resumes their work. Things to come." The assistant officer seemed quite reliable.

They discussed it for a while, and the queen returned to her mansion to prepare for Li Yan's reincarnation.

Nine ghosts quickly adapted to this modern hell. All kinds of food, clothing, housing, and transportation are no different from those in the yang world. He has seen the computers in the office before in the yang world, so he is not surprised that there are so many high-tech in the underworld.

After Pluto's handover work was almost completed, Nine Ghosts used Hell's new media to inform the residents of their return and reassignment. After that, Li Yan didn't have anything to do, and Li Yan moved all his luggage to Hades.

The first thing Jiu Gui did after he came back to power was to fire the guard in front of the gate of Hades who secretly played with his mobile phone during working hours, and ordered people to transform the gate into an automatic one, and built a comfortable dog house for the three-headed dog , The switch of the gate of Hades is in the dog house, and he only needs to move his paw to open the door for the undead.

So the three-headed dog does not have to go to the sauna under the scorching sun, and the air conditioner is still on in his hut, so he can comfortably watch the door with three pairs of eyes in turn. When one head is watching the door, the other two are playing chess or It's sleep.

As for Li Yan, he has finally lost his job and can take a good rest for a while.

After Ming would grind crystal-like things into powder in the pharmacy every day, and then soak them for him to drink, he felt that the taste was like eating a mouth full of sand, but he still gritted his teeth and swallowed all the sand-like things down.

He would take this kind of medicine every day, but the Empress of the Underworld never told him when he could reincarnate. One day, he couldn't help asking.

The queen of the underworld told him: "There is no rush for this matter, especially in the natural way, unless you want to reincarnate in the animal way, there is no need to register, just line up, and tens of thousands of sinners line up there every day."

"Then I'll wait here."

"Are you really not thinking about reincarnating in the Animal Realm and becoming a pet dog? I heard that Lin Jiayi likes dogs very much. By the way, let me introduce you to someone. Maybe you have met him in my yard."

Li Yan followed Minghou to the yard inexplicably, and saw a swing frame in the yard, and a little boy with brown skin was sitting quietly on the swing, his eyes unfocused, thinking about something.

"Who is he? Your son?"

"He is Lin Jiayi's pet dog, named Aiai."

"Didn't that dog die early? Why don't you go to reincarnation, what are you doing here?"

"You don't apply for reincarnation, you stay with me."

"Then what's the matter with him?"

"After he died, he escaped the sight of the ghost soldiers, followed the smell, and came to my mansion."

"Do you have any smell here?" Li Yan sniffed the air around him, but found no peculiar smell.

"It's the smell of blood in the yard."

"I didn't smell it." Li Yan could only smell flowers and plants.

The two walked to the swing, and when the boy noticed Li Yan, he raised his head and glared at him with hostility and gritted teeth.

"Your eyes are so scary. I'm not a suspicious person. Weren't you a dog when you were alive? Be a little more friendly."

"Obviously it's me first."

"What you first?"

"I came here first to wait for reincarnation, why should you first?"

Li Yan was in a fog when he heard it, and he looked at the Empress Ming beside him.

"The situation is like this. When he came to me, he also said that he wanted to reincarnate to the Lin family. As a result, Lilith handed you over to me, and it became a matter of arranging your whereabouts first."

"Actually, we can still be together. It's not like there are no twins."

"I've also considered this point, but it's not suitable. If you don't do it well, you will have mutual rejection before you are born and come back here."

"Then I'll go first."

"Huh." The little boy on the swing lost his temper, jumped up from the swing, and ran away without a trace.

Occasionally, the Empress would take time to tell Li Lisi about Li Yan's situation, telling her that the relationship between Li Yan and Ai Ai was not very good, Lilith laughed and went on with her own affairs.
