My daily mountain driving, I met a fox at the beginning and got married

Bai Wuchang (White Impermanence) then gave a detailed analysis of the pros and cons of joining the company. After he finished speaking, both sides fell silent again.

Zhang Xiaoming glanced at his younger sister, then turned and asked, "Are you still thinking about those things?"

Zhang Xiaoning gave Bai Wuchang a resentful look and replied, "Of course I want to, after all, he's so handsome."

A silent silence once again filled the air.

Bai Wuchang, who was the center of attention, felt extremely uncomfortable. He shifted his body and asked, "What are you talking about? Why are you looking at me like that?"

Zhang Xiaoning felt extremely resentful and reached out to gently touch his face.

The icy touch sent a chill down Bai Wuchang's spine, and he quickly took a step back to create some distance: "Let's talk this out, Miss Zhang, please don't lay a hand on me."

Zhang Xiaoning looked at him with even more resentment: "If I become your colleague, then there will be no possibility between us anymore, right?"

White Impermanence coughed lightly, and was about to nod when he suddenly heard a secret message from Yama, the King of Hell, in his mind:
"You absolutely must recruit them! It's just a matter of sacrificing a little bit of your looks, Lao Bai. I believe you can do it. Don't let me down."

White Impermanence remained expressionless, but inwardly he was going crazy: Don't place your hopes on me in such a strange place!
I'd rather not have this kind of trust! Making subordinates sell their bodies? That's outrageous! King Yama, I never thought you'd become such a cold-blooded capitalist!

"If I... if I say no, will you refuse to let me join the company?"

White Impermanence silently prayed: I hope you can give me a reliable answer and stop torturing me.

Perhaps the heavens heard Bai Wuchang's prayers; after a few seconds of silence, Zhang Xiaoning finally sighed and gave a relatively normal answer:
"No, not at all. As long as you maintain a good image, I won't force you. Of course, seeing you every day is the most important thing."

Upon hearing this, Bai Wuchang was almost so excited that he pulled out an employment contract on the spot and made them sign it. Fortunately, his remaining rationality stopped him.

Bai Wuchang nodded with feigned modesty: "Since you are willing to join the team, then come with me."

He waved his hand at the air in front of him, and a large door appeared out of thin air.

The door was shrouded in black mist and carved with eerie and sinister patterns. Staring at those patterns for too long would gradually make one feel disoriented.

The gate slowly opened, revealing a road that stretched as far as the eye could see: "This is the Road to the Underworld. Please follow me to the netherworld."

Zhang Xiaoning and Zhang Xiaoming exchanged a glance and followed Bai Wuchang inside.

On the road to the underworld, one can vaguely see piles of white bones by the roadside, and countless wronged souls wander back and forth in the black mist.

The wronged souls were all crying and wailing, and the chaotic cries disturbed people's peace of mind.

Hearing these cries, Zhang Xiaoning thought of her own past misery and couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow: "So many wronged souls, doesn't the underworld do anything about it?"

The White Impermanence calmly replied, "These wronged souls once had the opportunity to be delivered, but they gave it up themselves. They thought they could fight against all crises and control everything, but as time went by, they gradually lost themselves and could only drift numbly here day after day."

Moreover, the reason why these wronged souls are unwilling to be liberated is mostly because they guess that after being reincarnated, they may fall into the animal realm or be reborn into a bad family to suffer, and therefore refuse to be liberated.

Since they refused the opportunity for a proper rite of passage, they must naturally bear the consequences of their refusal.

After all, in this world, you have to be responsible for what you do.

Remembering Bai Wuchang's earlier words, Zhang Xiaoming asked uncertainly, "If we refuse to join the Underworld, will we also become one of these wronged souls as time goes by?"

Bai Wuchang nodded: "In the long run, you will all become like this sooner or later. However, you should be able to remain conscious for the next one or two hundred years."

As they talked, they unknowingly arrived at the Bridge of Helplessness. An old woman selling Meng Po soup by the bridge greeted Bai Wuchang with a smile and offered him a bowl of soup: "You're back? Would you like to try a bowl?"

Bai Wuchang shook his head: "These two are newcomers to the Underworld. Meng Po, please step aside, I need to take them there."

The old woman glanced at the twins curiously for a few moments, then obediently stepped aside.

After crossing the Bridge of Helplessness, they arrived at the Palace of the Underworld.

King Yama was handling affairs in the palace, with Zhang Hao sitting beside him.

Zhang Hao was flipping through a book of life and death, which recorded the life stories of countless people. It was arguably more captivating than most novels, and he was thoroughly engrossed in reading it.

A voice from the White Impermanence came from ahead: "Your Majesty, as per your instructions, the person has been brought here."

Yama put down his pen and looked ahead. Zhang Xiaoming and Zhang Xiaoning obediently stepped forward and bowed.

"Greetings, Your Majesty the King of Hell."

These twin demons are quite well-mannered; it seems they won't require much effort to train. Yama nodded to himself and asked them a few questions.

After confirming that they had indeed killed people, Yama had already made up his mind.

"Although you claimed to be seeking revenge, you have ultimately taken lives. Now that you are serving in the underworld, you must be even more diligent and responsible in order to atone for your sins."

As he spoke, Yama handed them a business card with an address printed on it.

"Next, you will go to this place and be specifically responsible for clearing away the wronged spirits there. Report back to me after you have finished. This is your entry-level assessment task. Only by doing this well can you be officially hired."

After Yama finished giving his instructions, he dismissed them.

Zhang Hao observed the twins with great interest. Although they recognized Zhang Hao, they dared not make a sound to disturb him.

When leaving the underworld, Zhang Hao bid farewell to King Yama and happened to be traveling with the twins.

Walking on the road to the underworld, Zhang Hao said to them, "Now that you have embarked on the right path, can you awaken my friends?"

Zhang Xiaoning felt a little guilty thinking about the people she had previously knocked unconscious with her spell.

If she hadn't joined the Underworld, she naturally wouldn't have any scruples. She could even decide whether or not to wake the other person up at will, without worrying about offending anyone.

But now that they have become members of the underworld, and this person in front of them is obviously on very good terms with Yama, if they refuse, the other person might say something to Yama, which could cause them a lot of trouble in their future work.

Zhang Xiaoning forced a calm expression and said, "I have already lifted the spell. They will wake up soon, so please don't worry."

"I apologize for my previous offenses, Mr. Zhang." Zhang Xiaoming bowed and offered his apology in a tactful manner.

Zhang Hao wasn't petty either. He waved his hand and said generously, "If I had known you were no ordinary people, I certainly wouldn't have bothered with such a trivial matter. Fortunately, none of my friends were injured."

This last point is the most crucial.

Zhang Xiaoming understood perfectly. Fortunately, they hadn't harmed Zhang Hao's friends; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to talk so calmly now.

Returning to the mortal world from the underworld, Zhang Hao said calmly, "However, this matter cannot be left unresolved. If I need your help in the future, you cannot refuse." (End of Chapter)
