Qiu Guokai was extremely sad, but he did not dare to question Taicang Sect’s business ability at this moment. After all, all the elders in the family were sitting there in a crowd, and his forehead was bruised by his father’s cane.
Tuan Tuanyi felt that he had learned a lot while applying for a membership card for him. So, he said to Wei Xi, “Master, I always thought that people would be reincarnated after they died. I didn’t expect that they could actually live in their own home.”
Wei Xi didn’t quite understand this either, but Shuo Zong frowned. Tuan Tuanyi was right. The current situation of several generations of the Qiu family living together was indeed very abnormal.
Then they heard Qiu Guokai’s father snort with a cold face: “Reincarnation is not that simple. In recent years, the human population has exploded and the aging population is serious. Do you know how drastically the birth rate has dropped? Do you think the situation below is good? Because of this, now even the policy of reincarnation has changed. In the past, those who committed many evil deeds would be reincarnated as animals after death, but now they will be blocked if they cannot provide a certificate of no criminal record. What a lazy government!”
Mother Qiu, who was exchanging information with Qiu Guokai, also sighed, “Yes, I know several acquaintances who were lucky enough to be reborn as pet cats and dogs, and those who were unlucky were stuck for more than ten years and were unable to be raised or reborn as wild protected animals. Who would have thought that they would come back again after a few months. It was said that they were caught by the locals as soon as they were born and sold to a big boss. All the brothers and sisters in the litter were stewed as supplements. I heard that they suffered a lot before they died, and even their scales were peeled off. They took this matter to the relevant departments, but they ignored them and fooled them with a sentence that the boss would be reborn as an animal when he died.”
“There are a lot of people queuing up down there, and the accommodation situation is not that good, so in recent years they have always relied on holidays to encourage good pregnancy to travel to reduce population pressure, so now even Halloween has become a legal holiday. There is not enough land, and the graves we have down there are allocated based on population, so there is not enough space, so we often come back for vacation. Generally speaking, as long as we don’t break the law and affect the human world and get reported, the underworld won’t care. So we used to be very quiet, at most we would come out when no one was at home to eat the incense offerings given by Guokai and watch TV. If we hadn’t discovered that day…Xuan Xuan’s matter, and he hadn’t been fooled so easily by his wife, the family wouldn’t have been in such a turmoil.”
At this point, Mother Qiu couldn’t help but sigh and explain, “As for when we will be reincarnated, I think we have to wait. Guokai’s grandmother and grandfather were the only ones in the family who got a chance to go because they lined up early, seven or eight years ago. But they themselves were unwilling to go, so they gave the place to the next person.”
Tuan Tuanyi was very confused after hearing this. He always felt that the working model of the underworld was not quite what he had imagined. However, after thinking about it carefully, he understood it. After all, it was the reform and opening up.
But he also felt strange: “If reincarnation is so difficult, why don’t you go for it when you have the chance?”
Another old man in a Mao suit looked unhappy when he heard this. The old lady next to him in a cheongsam touched the head of another old man next to her kindly and said, “We are worried about this little bast**d I gave birth to. How can his father and I leave with peace of mind if he doesn’t get in the queue?”
Mother Qiu nodded when she heard this: “Yes, his grandmother is worried about his grandfather, and his grandfather is also worried about his grandfather, and his grandmother is also worried that his father and I will make mistakes. I will have to wait until Guokai goes to the next place before I can really leave with peace of mind.”
Shuo Zong felt that at this rate, the family would not be able to leave within a few thousand years. Tuan Tuanyi was silent for a while and suggested to Qiu Guokai, “I think you should expand your house a little bit.”
Qiu Guokai held his membership card in his hand, but he was not afraid at all when he heard this. He held his mother’s hand affectionately and said, “Mom, please come home more often when you are free. I will get you a few rooms and fire the nanny. I will ask the masters if they have any way to let you watch TV during the day. You don’t know that after you and my dad passed away, I often dreamed of you. No one in the world is as good to me as you are.”
The mother and son hugged each other and started crying again. Qiu Guokai’s father was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at him: “Assh*le! You only dreamt about your mother, what about me?”
Qiu Guokai’s other elders all looked amused when they saw this, but the mother and son ignored him. Only Mother Qiu cried and begged Wei Xi: “Master, put aside the activities during the day, do you have any way to make me touch the spatula? This child is so thin, it’s obvious that he hasn’t eaten properly since I died.”
Tuanyi: “…”
….
After leaving Qiu’s house, Lin Hanyang said goodbye with a dazed look on his face. He had to go back and describe his bizarre experience to his wife.
Tuan Tuanyi found that his master seemed a little unhappy, and thought he was hungry, so he quickly took out the chocolate he brought with him and gave it to him. However, he saw that Wei Xi seemed to have no appetite at all, and just played with the chocolate in his hand.
Now even Shuo Zong felt that something was wrong. He wondered if Wei Xi was in a bad mood because he had not been able to eat the evil spirit as he wished for many times. He was worried that Wei Xi might be so angry that he would throw away all restraint and start a killing spree. For a moment, he even ignored the text messages that the bank sent him after he sold the talisman to Qiu Guokai and kept paying close attention to Wei Xi’s words and deeds.
But Wei Xi didn’t do anything the whole time and just returned home quietly.
At night, Shuo Zong was worried and noticed that he was walking outside, so he followed him out to check.
Then he saw Wei Xi sitting cross-legged on the doorstep, looking at the sky quietly.
The Wei family’s yard was no longer the same as it used to be. With the nourishment of the spiritual soil, the plants he planted grew very quickly, especially the row of nettles planted on the edge, which had grown to the height of an ordinary person’s waist and were very lush and verdant.
As the fifteenth day approached, the moon became more and more round, hanging brightly in the sky. Thanks to the good results of air quality control, it looked very conspicuous.
Wei Xi stared at the moon without even shaking his body. Shuo Zong thought at first that he was thinking about something, but his expression seemed to be just a daze.
Perhaps sensing his movements, Wei Xi quickly turned around, and when he saw that the person behind him was his apprentice, the vigilance in his eyes quickly disappeared.
“Lu Que.” Shuo Zong heard his voice and asked with a little bit of unreal doubt, “Was I too harsh on my master? Why didn’t he come to visit me like Qiu Guokai’s family did after he died?”
His fluffy hair swayed slightly in the night breeze.
Shuo Zong was silent for a moment, reached out and touched it, then sat down quietly beside him.
