Chapter 258 Trading
The temperature in the office dropped to the point where Song Yan's breath turned into mist. The Grim Reaper didn't seem bothered by her threats, but Song Yan saw his left eye twitching, which often happened when he was on the verge of losing control. However, for her father's sake, she was not afraid. As long as she could save her father, she was willing to fight the Grim Reaper. She squinted at him, "The underworld is divided into three parts: the punishment zone, the ethereal zone, and the neutral zone... If my father dies, will you allow him to be in the ethereal zone?"
Hell and heaven are places imagined by humans. To them, these two places are separated for a long time, but the fact is that they are connected. Sinners will be taken to the punishment area, which is considered to be hell. There are no facilities provided by the underworld there. Even crossing the bridge to the punishment area means walking on the bridge with blades like rain. Those who do good deeds will have their lives taken to the void area, which is the so-called heaven. The two are only one inch apart, and this one inch represents the underground and the air above the ground.
As for the Neutral Zone, it is where those who are neither good nor evil are taken in and used as ordinary manpower until it is their turn to leave, which may take an eternity.
Her father was locked up by that woman, and he couldn't do anything good or bad, but God didn't care what kind of life he lived, he would be assigned to a subdivision and then let him die. Because of what he did, he completed the task they gave him. Of course, after serving his sentence, they would give him compensation for his life, but Song Yan didn't want this compensation.
really.
"Due to his lack of merit, he will be assigned as neutral—" Before the Grim Reaper could finish, the Yin Qi on Song Yan burst out, causing him to pause and look at her. "This is the law, Song Yan... I can't change it."
"After being dead for so long, I'm a little dull to the law." She retorted, resting her hands on the armrests of the chair, looking at the god of death, and added, "I don't want to do such a thing. It will put the laws of the underworld in danger, but if you don't give me a way out..." A cunning smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. "I was once on the verge of becoming an evil spirit. Do you remember that time? Even you and the three gods of death couldn't stop me. If it weren't for my master, I would have done something that would have caused enough harm. "Do you want to see me do the same thing for centuries? This time, when I am human, would you rather see me do the same thing?
Of course, the Grim Reaper remembered the time when she almost lost her power. Although the time in this space has returned and the mistakes have been corrected, it is also possible that he saw how they would be hurt if Song Yan really did this. Losing control. He sighed, leaned back in his chair and said, "Okay, I see what you mean - then, let's make a deal, what do you say?"
"You said deal?" Seeing that he agreed to play with her, she retracted her Yin Qi and leaned back in the chair. "What do you mean? Are you saying that you want someone in exchange for information about my father?"
"Yes, that's right." Death looked at Song Yan, smiled politely, and pointed to one of the millions of clocks on the wall. "I can't destroy the balance of the world like you want, but if you give me your soul in exchange for your father, I can maintain the balance and turn a blind eye to everything else. I will also give you the address of where the woman is holding your father. All you have to do is bring that soul to me. If you can do that, then you can get what you want, and I will get what I want."
"You want me to kill someone?"
"Oh my god, no, why would I ask you to do this?" He waved his hand and motioned for her to come closer to him. Song Yan did as he said and leaned forward on the table. "There is a girl named Wu Genji. I want you to bring her soul to me."
Song Yan raised his eyebrows. "Wu... Genji?"
"Yeah." He nodded, pointing to the dull clock with spider webs hanging on it but still moving, and said, "This clock should have stopped six years ago, and I went to bring the girl's soul here specially. She was sent to the underworld, but before I could take her away, her lifeline that should have been cut off started to work again, and I couldn't bring her back... I kept trying to catch her soul, but I couldn't catch her soul every time. When I was about to take her away, I found that something blocked my way... It wasn't a person... It wasn't a ghost..." His face was gloomy, and he took out a card and put it on the table.
This is an ordinary card, but it has the life and death and time of Wu Genji written on it. However, this card is different from other cards carried by the Grim Reaper. It emits black smoke-"This happened on her twelfth birthday. I believe she came into contact with the devil, and you know that devils are not under my jurisdiction. They are under your jurisdiction." He pointed at Song Yan. "So get rid of that devil, send it back to hell, and bring back the girl's soul. "
Song Yan thought about it, then nodded. She was going to deal with Wu Genji anyway. In fact, if the Grim Reaper hadn't mentioned this, she would have taken action herself. After all, the soul should have come back a long time ago, but now it's trapped and gone. It's said that it's overdue and should be brought back. "Okay, I'll bring the soul, but remember, you have to tell me the information, my father. If you go back on your word, it won't be good for me, understand?"
"I'm not so petty as to hide such a thing." Death snorted.
"I don't believe you. After all, death is also very tricky." Song Yan stood up from his seat and looked at the god of death with a smile. "You fooled me once, have you forgotten?"
"That's a one-time thing, okay? I'm desperate!" Death immediately took action to defend himself. Song Yan just snorted and turned to leave, but as soon as she reached the door, she turned her head and looked at Death. "One last thing, has Fang Yanli's mother gone to a better place?"
"She did it. Not only was she accepted into heaven, but she was also able to reincarnate into a good family. Do you want to know where she is now?" The Grim Reaper asked with a smile, so mysterious that Song Yan shook his head.
She pulled out her sunglasses and smiled, looking at the man in front of her. "I won't be fooled. As long as she's happy and having fun, that's all I care about." She put on her goggles and turned to open the door. "You'd better prepare the information I need as soon as possible, because I will bring that soul to you soon."
Then she strode out of the room and slammed the door behind her.
"Let's go." She strode towards Fu Yushen who was sitting in the reception area. "I've finished my work here." Her eyes fell on the sugar water he was holding in his hand like a child, and she turned to look at the man behind the black jade counter. "You haven't changed, have you?"
"The company is a little short-handed these days." The man's answer made Fu Yushen, who was about to drink water, pause. "What does this have to do with this glass of water?"
Song Yan glanced at him and said, "Are you an idiot?" Then she took the glass from him and handed it to the man behind the counter. "Don't cheat people everywhere..." She turned to look at Fu Yushen and said, "Haven't you heard that people can't drink or eat things from the underworld?"
