CHAPTER 251: CHAPTER 251: SUGGEST HAVING 7 OR 8 CHILDREN

A few people stood still, no longer speaking, just focusing on the Ghost Gate, waiting.

It’s not that they didn’t want to talk, but there were ears, too many ears, on the other side of the door!

Fortunately, the wait wasn’t long. The sound of chains came again from the Ghost Gate, closer and closer. Upon hearing the chains, they immediately stood up straight with respectful expressions.

Lord Xie’s silhouette reappeared at the Ghost Gate, followed by several men and women.

"These people, see if they’re the ones you need."

"As for the village you just mentioned, it’s been over a hundred years, those ghosts have long reincarnated."

Lord Xie’s voice was icy.

Upon hearing this, a few people felt disappointed, this clue broke again, alas.

Xuan Er walked over, looked at the five ghosts, took out his phone, and showed it to the ghosts.

On the phone were patients in the hospital who were continually feverish.

These people were visibly red all over, lips cracked, eyes tightly shut, always unconscious.

"Oh wow, they’ve turned into cooked shrimps!"

"With such severe fever, why not take measures?"

Xuan Er said, "Medication has been used, but to no avail."

"What caused it?" a ghost asked.

Xuan Er: "It should be an evil entity."

The ghosts, upon hearing this, looked at Xuan Er as if he were an idiot.

"A fever caused by an evil entity, why call us?! Shouldn’t you Xuan Sect people treat them!"

"Exactly, young man, how are you being foolish at such a young age?"

Xuan Er: ...

Lord Xie cleared his throat, and the ghosts immediately fell silent.

"Since they loaned you, you should go have a look.

If really no help, you can come back at any time."

"Yes, my lord," the ghosts obediently replied.

Lord Xie glanced at Xuan Er, "Remember to send them back in time."

Xuan Er clasped his hands together, "Rest assured, my lord."

Lord Xie looked at the five ghosts, advised them to be obedient, not to stir up trouble, as their reincarnation time was approaching. If there were no accidents, they’d reincarnate well this time.

The five ghosts nodded repeatedly, indicating they’d return right away.

Lord Xie nodded, turned, and walked towards the Ghost Gate. But before leaving, he looked back at the girl full of Merit.

"What is her name?"

Lord Xie pointed in Lin Xiaoyan’s direction and asked.

Xuan Er looked serious, "My lord, she is also from the Special Investigation Bureau, but she is a superpower user, named Lin Xiaoyan."

Lin Xiaoyan heard the Yin Cha actually asking about her, her heart skipped a beat, uncontrollably looking towards him.

With that glance, she saw the appearance of this Yin Cha Lord.

Indeed, it was just like the TV shows, the skin tone was dead pale!

If you ask what dead pale is, it’s that lifeless white, bloodless kind of blue-white, a single look tells you it’s a dead person!

Oh, it’s still not the same as the TV shows, the TV ghosts are artificially powdered, this one is pure natural...

Regarding looks... cough, don’t ask about looks, just this cold aura is terrifying, who cares if he looks good or not!

Lin Xiaoyan was so unnerved by Lord Xie’s gaze that her hair stood on end, her heart drumming, what did he want? Should she greet?

Lin Xiaoyan thought for a moment, braving the cold stare, shakily bowed with fists clasped, "G...good day, my lord, I am Lin Xiaoyan."

Lord Xie looked at Lin Xiaoyan, then at Xuan Er, "Such a promising talent, why not let her train with you?

This Merit-filled presence is perfect for catching ghosts and cutting down demons."

Xuan Er and his group’s gazes all turned to Lin Xiaoyan.

Lin Xiaoyan: ...... She didn’t think it was good!!!

With the Ghost Gate closed, Xuan Er led the few ghosts onward.

"Young man, you tell us about the current condition of those patients?"

"Now there are even evil entities? I heard from the recently descended ghosts, the world today is a scientific place!"

"Indeed, science rules all, how are there evil entities!"

A few ghosts noisily chatted, and the road back became much lively.

Lin Xiaoyan looked at the five ghosts, listening to their noisy voices, her fear and anxiety diminished.

Later, these few ghosts discussed reincarnation.

"Sigh, ghosts below waiting for reincarnation have queued up for two hundred years!!!"

"True, the Underworld can hardly fit anymore, and now people are reluctant to have kids, future ghosts might remain in the Underworld."

"Sigh, when will the nation encourage young folks to have seven or eight! So those below can reincarnate quickly..."

Lin Xiaoyan heard this and widened her eyes, seven or eight!!!

"Seniors, times have changed, it’s tough enough to raise one, seven or eight is unimaginable!" Lin Xiaoyan hurriedly said.

The five ghosts looked at Lin Xiaoyan, just about to argue, but her Merit blinded them.

Seeing Lin Xiaoyan’s Merit, the ghosts’ expressions eased.

"Young lady, I heard from recent ghosts life’s hard now, but exactly how hard, they’re not even having kids?"

"Back in the day, we birthed children while fighting wars, conditions were tough too!"

"Yes, my first two kids were born on the road, because circumstances were dire, they were entrusted to villagers as my husband and I moved with the troops..."

"Sigh, it was common, my second and fourth were entrusted to villagers too..."

"You all had someone to care, I didn’t have a wife when I died."

"Sigh, forget it, reincarnation is another start, let’s enjoy life in this peaceful thriving time!"

"Yes, enjoy life to the fullest!"

...

Listening to the seniors’ conversation, Lin Xiaoyan thought about what Shi Wu and the others said about an impending world change.

She looked at them with sympathy, hoping their future era remains peaceful.

Soon they reached the car, Lin Xiaoyan looked at the seniors, then at the seats inside.

"Don’t worry, it’s broad daylight, first need to put these seniors away, release them on arrival," Shi Wu whispered.

Upon hearing, Lin Xiaoyan sighed in relief.

Shiyi spoke to the seniors, then put them away.

Without the ghosts, the feeling of reality returned.

Sitting in the car, heading back, Lin Xiaoyan suddenly noticed Sister Nan hadn’t spoken.

"Sister Nan?"

Nan Xi looked blankly at Lin Xiaoyan.

Seeing Nan Xi’s expression, Lin Xiaoyan’s heart skipped, worrying, "Sister Nan, what’s wrong?"

Shi San and the others glanced back, finding nothing unusual.

Nan Xi forced a smile, "It’s nothing."
