Chapter 461: The List

“What do you mean?”

Ai Shui and Yun Guagua frowned at the same time.

Jiang Zhong pondered for a moment and said lightly, “That lady looks like the lady I’m looking for, but her inside is different.”

The duo still looked at him blankly, as if they did not understand his words.

“I mean the skin is the same, but not the soul.”

After Jiang Zhong explained, his eyes suddenly lit up. “That lady must know her!”

“Wait!”

Ai Shui pulled him back. “Are you saying that she’s not the person you’re looking for?”

Jiang Zhong nodded. “Yes.”

Upon hearing his words, the duo heaved a sigh of relief.

“Thankfully!”

She was His Highness’s woman. It was blasphemy to keep thinking about her.

Thankfully, she was not who he was looking for. Otherwise, they did not know how to persuade Jiang Zhong.

After all, he had waited for so many years. It was not easy for the Netherworld to be on a break today. The cycle of reincarnation had closed and Meng Po was on a break too. Only then did Jiang Zhong agree to follow them to visit His Highness in the human world.

“I’m not going. You go ahead.”

Jiang Zhong looked at the two of them and said, “I want to wait here for that lady to come back.”

For some reason, he felt that the lady must have seen the person he was looking for.

Ai Shui said, “Then I’ll visit His Majesty in the human world next time. Anyway, it’ll be the Hungry Ghost Festival in three months.”

Yun Guagua nodded. “We won’t go if you don’t. We’ll wait here with you.”

Jiang Zhong looked at them gratefully and nodded slightly.

—————

In the King of Hades’ Palace.

Ever since Lu Ying knew Lu Sheng’s identity, her gaze was filled with affection.

This was her son’s fiancée in the human world and her youngest Junior Brother’s only daughter. How could she not like her?

This was the first time Lu Sheng saw Chu Sihan’s real mother.

It had to be said that being a ghost was as good as becoming an immortal. They could maintain their youth without changing.

She looked at the King of Hades and Lu Ying. It had been so many years, but they still looked like they were in their late twenties.

They did not look like Chu Sihan’s parents. Instead, they looked more like siblings.

“Shenger, right?”

Lu Ying pulled Lu Sheng’s hand and said lovingly, “Thank you for taking care of Han Er in the human world.”

“No!”

Lu Sheng said shyly, “Lord has been taking care of me.”

“Lord?”

Lu Ying looked suspiciously at Lu Zhou, not understanding why Lu Sheng called Chu Sihan Lord.

Lu Zhou said lightly, “We don’t know the fun youngsters are keen in.”

“I see!”

When Lu Ying heard that, her smile returned.

The King of Hades coughed lightly and asked Lu Zhou and Shangguan Dian, “Why are Junior Brother and the Demon King free to come over today?”

Lu Zhou glanced at Lu Sheng and Shangguan Dian and said helplessly, “I have something to ask you for help.”

“Oh?”

The King of Hades was puzzled. “What’s the matter?”

He remembered that the last time Lu Zhou asked him for help was when he was searching for the life-and-death register for that mortal woman.

“Uncle King of Hades, it’s like this.”

Lu Sheng stood up and bowed slightly to the King of Hades. Then, she said, “I heard from my master that Uncle King of Hades can go to the space-time dimension where we lived in our previous life. Hence, I would like to ask Uncle King of Hades for a favor.”

The King of Hades nodded. “What favor? Speak.”

“Little niece!”

Lu Sheng was about to speak when a loud voice came from outside the door.

Lu Zhou scratched his ear in disdain. He knew who it was without even looking.

Indeed, after a while, Official Lu walked in hurriedly.

“Greetings, King of Hades!”

He first bowed to Lu Sheng before smiling at her. “Why didn’t you find Uncle when you’re here?”

Lu Sheng hurriedly explained, “Master, Uncle Demon King, and I came over to talk to Uncle King of Hades.”

When Official Lu heard that, he glanced at Lu Zhou and realized that he was drinking tea with Shangguan Dian. He did not look at him.

Shangguan Dian smiled and nodded at him.

Official Lu sighed softly.

The King of Hades looked at him and said, “Official Lu, find a place and sit down first.”

“Yes!”

Official Lu found a seat close to Lu Zhou and sat down.

The King of Hades retracted his gaze and continued speaking to Lu Sheng. “Lu Sheng, continue.”

Lu Sheng nodded slightly. “I would like Uncle King of Hades to bring some things back for Lu Sheng the next time he goes to our space-time dimension.”

“What things?”

The King of Hades had just asked when she took out a long list from nowhere and showed it to him.

The King of Hades fell silent when he saw the long list.

Lu Ying covered her mouth and giggled.

Lu Sheng smiled drily and said, “These are the items that I would like to ask the King of Hades for help to buy.”

As she spoke, she took out a few thick stacks of Grandpa Mao and a hairpin and placed them on the King of Hades’ table.

“Uncle King of Hades, here’s two hundred thousand yuan. After buying the items, just store them in this jade hairpin.”

Two hundred thousand yuan should be enough to buy a lot of things, right?

He looked at the items on the list. There were brown sugar, white sugar, ice sugar, and sweet potato flour. The scariest thing was that she wanted to buy a few cows.

There was also oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and a bunch of other things.

There were also pots, bowls, ladles, and basins. Oh, right, he also had to buy some gasoline generators and dozens of barrels of gas oil.

The King of Hades was dazzled. For the first time, he had the urge to refuse.

However, on second thought, if not for her son, the girl would not have come to this space-time dimension. Hence, he reluctantly agreed.

“Isn’t this the jade hairpin Junior Brother gave me back then?”

Lu Ying picked up the jade hairpin and asked the King of Hades in a low voice.

The King of Hades glanced at Lu Zhou and said in a low voice, “It seems like it returned to Junior Brother.”

Lu Ying smiled and hurried the King of Hades to keep it.

Seeing that the task was completed, Lu Zhou slowly stood up and said, “Since it’s done, we’ll get going.”

“It’s time to go back.”

Official Lu looked at Lu Sheng and said, “Now that the Qingming Festival is approaching, the Yin energy in the Netherworld is stronger than before. It’s not suitable for Lu Sheng to stay long.”

Lu Ying wanted to chat with Lu Sheng again, but when she heard Official Lu’s words, she could only nod regretfully.

“Official Lu is right. Junior Brother, you should bring Shenger back earlier.”

Lu Zhou nodded.

Lu Sheng looked at Lu Ying and suddenly understood why her master liked her when he was young.

Lu Ying was very beautiful, but not in a weak and delicate way. Instead, she was heroic.

It turned out that Master liked such heroic beauties. No wonder he did not like so many other beauties.

“Disciple, what are you thinking about? It’s time to go.”

Seeing Lu Sheng still standing there, Lu Zhou reminded her helplessly.

“Coming!”

Lu Sheng regained her senses and hurried over to him.

“Uncle King of Hades, Auntie, we’ll return to the human world first.”

Lu Ying smiled and nodded. “Yes, go ahead!”

Lu Zhou nodded at the duo and glanced at Official Lu. He said lightly, “I’ll bring the girl back first.”

“Yes!”

Official Lu was stunned for a moment before hurriedly smiling and nodding.

Lu Zhou replied softly and said to Shangguan Dian and Lu Sheng, “Let’s go.”

Shangguan Dian stood up and nodded at them before following Lu Zhou out of the King of Hades’ Palace.

Not long after they left the palace, they saw Yun Guagua and the other two men running over frantically.

“Miss, we have something to ask you. Can we talk in private?”

Lu Sheng looked at Lu Zhou hesitantly and heard him say faintly, “Come back quickly.”

“Disciple will be back soon.”

Upon hearing her words, the three of them were stunned.

They did not expect this girl to be Lu Zhou’s disciple.

However, it made sense. With His Highness’s status, how could he be easily attracted to a mortal?

“Let’s go.”

Seeing that the three of them did not move, Lu Sheng quickly reminded them softly.

“Oh, Miss, this way please!”

The three of them bowed slightly to Lu Zhou and Shangguan Dian before leading Lu Sheng to the front.

“What do the three of you have to ask?”

Lu Sheng thought that they wanted to ask about Chu Sihan. Unexpectedly, Jiang Zhong said agitatedly, “Miss, do you know a girl who looks exactly like you?”

“Huh?”

A girl who looked exactly like her?

Lu Sheng was stunned. “Young Master, what are you trying to say?”

“Oh, let me ask.”

Ai Shui pushed Jiang Zhong away and explained to Lu Sheng, “He had a girl he liked when he was alive. After that, she died from an illness. For the past hundred years, he has been sitting on the Bridge of Helplessness every day, waiting for that girl to enter the cycle of reincarnation. However, after waiting for so long, he has never found her.”

“When he saw you today, he said that you looked exactly the same as the girl he was waiting for.”

Lu Sheng thought about it carefully and finally understood what they meant.

She looked at Jiang Zhong and asked, “You’re saying that the girl you like looks exactly the same as me?”

Jiang Zhong nodded. “Do you know her?”

Lu Sheng sighed softly. “I think I’ve seen her before.”

Jiang Zhong was overjoyed. “Where is she now?”

Lu Sheng did not answer him immediately. Instead, she frowned and asked, “Since you’ve waited on the Bridge of Helplessness for a hundred years, why haven’t you seen her?”

If the owner was the person Jiang Zhong was looking for, she should have passed the Bridge of Helplessness more than ten years ago. How could Jiang Zhong not have seen her?

Yun Guagua explained, “He went to the mortal world once more than ten years ago.”

No wonder.

If that was the case, she understood why he did not meet the owner on the Bridge of Helplessness.

“Miss, tell me quickly where she is now.”

Jiang Zhong looked excited.

However, it made sense when she thought about it. He had waited for a hundred years but had yet to see her. Now that he finally heard news of that girl, how could he not be excited?

“She’s in the Netherworld.”

Upon hearing Lu Sheng’s words, Jiang Zhong was stunned. “You’re saying that she’s in the Netherworld?”

Lu Sheng nodded. “The skin I’m using now is actually hers. However, by accident, I became her.”

“What… do you mean?” Jiang Zhong asked blankly.

“It means that she was killed by her stepmother, and I came from another space-time dimension. When I woke up, my soul had already entered this body.”

“So, she’s really in the Netherworld now?”

So the person he had been waiting for was actually beside him?

Lu Sheng looked at him and asked, “What was her name in her previous life?”

“Her name was Lu Yao.”

“Her name is Lu Sheng in this lifetime. Young Master, you can find Official Lu and get him to help you find her.”

The owner had just reached the Netherworld not long ago. She should not have entered the cycle of reincarnation yet.

“Thank you, Miss!”

After thanking her, Jiang Zhong hurried to the Judgment Hall.

“Miss, when you come over with His Highness next time, I’ll definitely make delicious food for you!”

Yun Guagua blinked and pulled Ai Shui away before he could say anything.

Lu Sheng watched the three of them leave and was about to walk back when she was surrounded by a group of ghosts.

“There’s actually a human here!”

Lu Sheng’s expression turned cold. “Make way.”

“Oh, this human is actually not afraid of us!”

These ghosts were of different ages, but they were ugly.

She frowned. “It’s Qingming Festival. Why don’t you line up and go home to eat good food? Why are you surrounding me?”

“Our entire family is in the Netherworld. How can we return home?”

A lecher laughed wretchedly and reached out to hold Lu Sheng’s hand. However, his hand was knocked away by a black aura.

“Who dares to touch me?”

Lu Sheng turned back and saw two familiar faces.

They were the female ghosts, Ronger and Lianye, whom she had met twice when she and Chu Sihan came down.

“It’s Miss Ronger and Miss Lianye!”

“Stop!”

When the other ghosts saw the two of them, they were so scared that they wanted to escape. However, they were also so scared by Ronger’s call that they seemed to be rooted to the ground.

“Miss, why are you here alone? Where’s His Highness?”

Lianye walked forward and sized Lu Sheng up. Seeing that she was fine, she heaved a sigh of relief.

“He didn’t come.”

Lu Sheng had just finished replying Lianye when she heard Ronger reprimanding the group of people. “Do you all want to die? How dare you touch someone who belongs to His Highness? Do you want to be thrown into the River of Forgetfulness?”

“What?”

A group of ghosts looked at Lu Sheng fearfully. “She… She’s a human.”

“So what if she’s a human? His Highness is a human now. She’s His Highness’s wife in the mortal world. How dare you blaspheme her? Go to the pig farm and shovel pig feces for me.”

The ghosts hurriedly agreed.

“Yes, yes. We’ll go now!”

“Get lost!”

Ronger’s roar attracted Lu Zhou and Shangguan Dian, who were waiting for Lu Sheng nearby, over.

The duo walked over suspiciously. When they saw Lu Sheng and the two female ghosts standing together, they could not help but frown.

“Ha!”

When she saw Lu Zhou and Shangguan Dian, Ronger, who had a ferocious look on her face just now, instantly became beautiful.

She walked forward and asked coquettishly, “Lord Lu, when did you come over?”

Lu Zhou glanced at her disdainfully and asked Lu Sheng, “Disciple, what happened?”

The way he addressed her as his disciple shocked both Lianye and Ronger.

The two of them were like Yun Guagua and the other two. They did not expect Lu Sheng, a mortal, to be Lu Zhou’s disciple.

“Are you Lord Lu’s disciple?” Lianye asked Lu Sheng.

Lu Sheng nodded slightly. “Yes.”

She smiled faintly. “No wonder.”

Those who could match His Highness’s status were naturally not ordinary.

Lu Sheng smiled at the two of them and said, “We’re going back to the human world. Thank you, ladies!”

If not for Lianye, the souls of those ghosts would have dissipated.

After all, the whip her master gave her was not a joke.

Lianye nodded. “That’s what we should do. We won’t be sending you off!”
