Resurrected

No.

This answer stunned Chen Lin for a moment.If it wasn't work, then Tang Kexin's bloody actions were purely for venting and fun?What a twisted mind this must be.

But he immediately noticed something was wrong, and he still clearly remembered Tang Kexin's answer was not like that when they met in that room before.At that time, the other party clearly stated that he was working, and the reason why Chen Lin asked again this time was purely a temptation.

Unexpectedly, I got a diametrically opposite answer. Which one is true?

"It's work, and it's not work." Tang Kexin continued: "They are a group of ghosts who failed their mission and were repatriated. They themselves were seriously injured and would not survive long. The job given to me is to guard there and wait for them to die. Let things change. Cutting off their heads is not a task, it's just my personal decision." After a pause, Tang Kexin said again: "I don't want to waste time there."

This answer completely denied that he gave them the possibility of death because of pity for those ghosts.

Tang Kexin didn't give those ghosts a simple death out of pity for their painful torment, but he just didn't want to waste his energy.Although the reasons for the two are different, the result is the same.

But the human heart is a strange thing, and people often have different views on the same result.

In the eyes of most people, Tang Kexin's behavior is cruel and cold-blooded.He himself knew very well that the reason why he said it so bluntly was just to test the reaction of his cohabitants.

As for Chen Lin, he was very surprised, but what surprised him was not Tang Kexin's behavior, but a few key words in what he said just now - the mission failed and he was sent back.So those ghosts lying bloodied on the ground were originally residents of this underground world like him.It's just that when performing a certain task or work, unfortunately failed, it became like that?

What kind of pain must make them wait alive for death?

What he wants to know more now is this.In fact, he also asked directly.

"Are you asking this?" Tang Kexin looked at him a little strangely, "Don't ask me why I killed them?"

"They are not my relatives or friends, why should I care about their lives?" Chen Lin replied indifferently, "And sooner or later they will die. What you do will reduce their pain. Isn't it right?"

"But I'm not thinking of them, just for myself." Tang Kexin said.

"No matter what the starting point is, the result is always the same." Chen Lin is a resultant.In his view, evil thoughts may lead to good deeds by accident, and good intentions may also be self-defeating and lead to big mistakes.Tang Kexin's thoughts were not considered a great evil, but they were considered good deeds to a certain extent.So what is there for him to care about?

More importantly, those ghosts had nothing to do with him, and he wouldn't bother to think about them.

"..." Tang Kexin looked at his new roommate. He looked weak, but there were always surprises.And he will not hold prejudice against his own special behavior.At this moment, he suddenly felt that Lao Liu's co-sleeping arrangement was too suitable for him.

"I can tell you why they died, but there is one requirement."

"A request?" Chen Lin was surprised, "Let's hear it."

If it was an unreasonable condition, he would simply ask other ghosts, even Old Liu!

Tang Kexin said: "If you continue to agree to live with me, I will not only tell you the answer, but also take care of you on certain occasions."

"Take care?" Chen Lin looked strange.

"Let other guys who are about to make a move not dare to attack you. As long as they know that you are by my side, they will not act rashly." Tang Kexin said lightly, as if he was talking about a very ordinary thing.

"Why do you have to live with me? Isn't it better for you to live in a room alone?"

"Not good." Tang Kexin refused decisively. "I want to too, but they don't agree. They have to arrange a cohabitant to monitor me. And among all the roommates, I like you the most."

them?Does it mean management?Those mysterious guys paid special attention to Tang Kexin, and it turned out that this ghost was different.It was not a request to lose money, Chen Lin thought for a while and nodded in agreement.

So Tang Kexin also began to explain for him.

"You don't understand the work of ghosts yet," he said, pointing with a finger. "This is a completely different world from the one above. Every ghost here has a secret that cannot be told to others."

I have no secrets.Chen Lin muttered in his heart, while continuing to listen to him.

"The ghosts living here are held hostage by the higher authorities. They cannot resist, cannot fight, and are used by them. There are many shady tasks that can only be entrusted to us." Tang Kexin's eyes flickered. "Going to extremely dangerous areas, those people will worry about the consumption of ordinary soldiers, but they don't care how many ghosts have died. We have no names, no worries, and no obstacles to use. Isn't it very convenient? Ghosts are a tool whether it is used for Killing people or doing something else is the most effortless and worry-free."

"Killing? Why don't you just find a professional killer for this kind of job?"

Tang Kexin smiled. "Even if it's a professional killer, isn't a ghost killer more convenient than a living killer?"

When he laughed like that, Chen Lin suddenly realized.The ghosts here are all kinds of characters during their lifetime, and of course there are ghosts who used to be killers and agents.For example, the roommate in front of me.

"The ghosts in the room before failed to complete a dangerous job, so they must be wiped out." Tang Kexin said lightly: "The rules here are like this, work, survive, fail, and die completely. So in order to live If it takes longer, find a suitable job. Don't be too ambitious."

He saw the ambition in Chen Lin's eyes, and knew that this weak guy had great ambitions.It's just that sometimes no matter how lofty your ambition is, it depends on whether you have the life to realize it.

"What about after living?"

Chen Lin suddenly asked: "Just stay here in the ground all the time, lingering?"

He thought of Old Liu, the ghost who had completely adapted to life underground.He doesn't like Lao Liu because he thinks the other party is living like a zombie.And Lao Liu couldn't get used to Chen Lin, probably because he didn't like the vitality in him.

"In the future?" Tang Kexin tilted his head in confusion, as if he was a little puzzled. "After what? Wouldn't it be good to live? What else do you want?"

"Is it good to be alive?" Chen Lin shook his head thinking of the woman who jumped off the cliff. "Such a day without sunshine, without freedom, like a dead person, is not called living."

He agreed with that woman's idea, but he did not agree with her suicide attempt.From Chen Lin's point of view, it is better to hold back for now and then slowly find a way out than complaining about others' despair.Speaking of which, among the new ghosts in his group, it seems that only he and Xu Jia have adapted.The others have probably all quietly disappeared underground.

"I don't know what kind of life you want, but my life has always been like this." Tang Ke said dully: "Complete tasks and get paid, just like human beings get paid after working, and then continue to work in order to survive. What's the difference?"

"There's a big difference, at least you can still see the sun on it." Seeing that Tang Kexin was still puzzled, Chen Lin was not interested in further arguing with him, but said: "The final destination of the ghost in the ground is What? You've been dying of old age here, and you can never go out?"

"You can go out, otherwise you think I bought these ingredients there?" Tang Kexin pointed to the chicken soup that was boiling in the pot. "When I was on a mission before, I bought it outside. It cost 25 yuan each. Is it a little expensive?"

"You!" Chen Lin excitedly said, "Can you go out and contact the people above?!"

"As long as you accept the work outside, you can. But it can only be at night, and there are many restrictions."

"What's your job outside?"

This is simply a big surprise. According to what Lao Liu has always said, Chen Lin thought that since he came in, he would not be able to go out!Unexpectedly, Tang Kexin found a breakthrough here.In a moment of excitement, he stepped forward and grabbed Tang Kexin's sleeve!

"Do not touch me!"

Tang Kexin suddenly shouted coldly, his eyes full of impatience.

Chen Lin withdrew his hand somewhat embarrassingly.That's right, these lonely killers have always disliked being touched by outsiders.Was he too carried away and touched this guy's taboo?

"The soup in my hand is going to be spilled." Unexpectedly, Tang Kexin frowned and said, putting the spoon into the pot and stirring.It seems that in his opinion, completing a perfect pot of fresh soup is much more important than answering Chen Lin's questions.

"..." Resisting the urge to overthrow Guo Tang, Chen Lin asked patiently, "What kind of job is it that you can go out?"

"It's useless to tell you." After answering this sentence impatiently, he ignored Chen Lin again and just left him alone.

Tang Kexin concentrated on cooking the soup, looked at the heat, took a small bowl out and tasted it.Frowning, he suddenly turned his head to look at Chen Lin and said, "Come here, give me a taste."

Chen Lin looked at him and suddenly thought of an idea.He didn't speak, just leaned forward with a smile and took a sip.

"How does it taste?" Tang Kexin waited seriously for his answer.

"Well, it's okay, but there seems to be something missing."

"What's missing?"

"It's missing..." Chen Lin stopped talking suddenly, "Then tell me first, how can I get the job outside?"

This is an obvious excuse and threat, will Tang Kexin be fooled?

He squinted his eyes and looked at Chen Lin for a while before saying, "You can't answer because your level is too low."

"Level?" What is this, an online game?

"Look at your card, what's the ID?"

U-Z1103.

"U stands for the underground world, and Z stands for your level and strength. It's just the lowest level ghost, do you think you can climb to the ground?"

Chen Lin had a strange expression on his face. The more he heard Tang Kexin say this, the more he felt like he was playing a fantasy online game.

"What level can you go out?"

Tang Kexin took out his card and let Chen Lin see the numbers on it clearly.

U-A007.

"Above grade B." Taking back the card, Tang Kexin said flatly: "You can be promoted to grade B after you work as a cleaner for another 100 years. Alright, now you should tell me, what is missing in this soup?"

"...Think about it for yourself." Chen Lin, who was hit by him, turned around and left.

"In another 100 years, you may be able to figure it out."
