Hades girl is by my side

Chapter 125 The man finally showed up
The guard room of the ethnic community is now empty.

The door to the guard room is always unlocked because the guard, Old Nie, is always on duty here diligently and hard-working, even though his salary has not increased much.

He would put a small fan here in the summer and a small sun in the winter.

His favorite thermos cup in the guard room was still on the table, and the old wooden chairs with a sense of age were stored under the wooden table.There is a single bed in the corner for Lao Nie to rest in the middle of the night when he is on duty.

It was such a small guard room that carried all the time after Lao Nie retired.

He was originally a cadre of the tax bureau. After retirement, he was very bored at home and had nothing to do. The ethnic community happened to have no doorman. Since it was close to home and he could see old friends in the community, Lao Nie worked as a doorman here.

This guard has been working as a guard for more than ten years.

Unexpectedly, when I came back to see it again, it was no longer physically embodied.

Lao Nie stood in the guard room, standing in this place that basically belonged to half of his home, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.

He died, just last night.

When Black and White Wuchang came to pick him up, he originally thought that the other party would be scary, like the tall men who often appear in movies and TV dramas, but he didn't expect it to be two young people.

Lao Nie died unwillingly, not because his old body could not withstand a beating. The fundamental reason was that he did not like the old lady at all.

But he did go to meet the other party as if by mistake, and more than once.

Lao Nie didn't understand why he would do such a thing, even after death, it would become the topic of gossip.

If that's not late, then what is.

So Lao Nie did not choose to leave Black and White Wuchang, but chose to become a lonely ghost.

He wanted to find out the reason, what he was thinking in his heart at that time, and what kind of lard was blinding him.

Before leaving, Black and White Wuchang once told Lao Nie that as long as he does not become an evil spirit that does things that endanger other people's lives, Black and White Wuchang will let his thoughts remain in this world until they disappear into ashes.

Old Nie sat on his single bed, looking at the dark guard room, quietly in a daze.

It's very windy outside tonight, and people are already going home one after another outside the community.

Lao Nie basically knows these people and would say hello when they meet, but now they can no longer see Lao Nie.

I don't know how long it took before a stranger walked in outside the community.

Wearing a brown windbreaker and a black hat, he was a stranger that Lao Nie had never seen before.

In the past, the conscientious old Nie would definitely ask him what he was doing here, but now he has no intention of disturbing normal people's lives anymore.

But this man was obviously coming for Lao Nie, he walked straight into the guard room quickly, and then faced Lao Nie head-on.

His eyes were piercing, and since he could see Lao Nie, it already showed that he was not a normal person.

"You must be Nie Zhenghua."

The man spoke with a gentle voice.

"Yes... who are you?"

"I'm sorry, I was the one who killed you."

The man sighed and took off his hat, revealing his gray hair.

He looked about the same age as Lao Nie, and Lao Nie even felt that he was older than himself.

"What do you mean by this, why can't I understand you?"

Lao Nie asked, but the man just sat next to Lao Nie without any airs.

"You don't like that woman, do you?"

"Yeah, if I really like her, I'll be willing to die. And her husband just passed away, so even if I really like her, I won't be so anxious... Besides, I'm already this age, so what else can I talk about? Whether you like it or not, as long as you get along..."

Lao Nie complained to the man next to him, not realizing in his heart that he was the culprit of his death.

The man listened to Lao Nie's words, and before he could continue to respond, two people came in from outside the community in front of him.

It was Tang Yu and San Geng who had finished meeting the Chang brothers and sisters.

The weather outside was very cold and windy, so due to the weather, they separated from each other after finishing the barbecue.

Tang Yu only wanted to go home early, and did not notice that after they entered the community, San Geng's body had begun to change.

He stopped in the middle of the night and turned to look at the guard room.

"Third watch, what are you looking at? Go home quickly."

Tang Yu said this while reaching out to pull San Geng's arm.

When she turned back to look at Tang Yu again in the middle of the night, her pupils had changed from pitch black to bright blood red.

Tang Yu understood what the change in the third watch meant.

Moreover, San Geng had just looked towards the guard room. Tang Yu followed San Geng's gaze but did not see anyone.

The single bed is in the blind spot and cannot be seen from the outside.

"Midnight...did you feel Uncle Nie's presence?"

"He is in the guard room at the moment."

Tang Yu answered in the middle of the night, but Tang Yu's mood became a little uneasy.

He would eventually meet Uncle Nie again, in another identity.

When the two people walked into the guard room, Uncle Nie did not expect that Tang Yu would appear here with his cousin.

He didn't expect that Tang Yu and San Geng could also see him.

"Uncle Nie."

Tang Yu called out softly, and Old Nie had mixed feelings in his heart.

"Hey."

But he still responded to Tang Yu, without even having time to ask him why he could see himself now.

Lao Nie's cloudy eyes were a little red. After all, he had not yet adapted to the reality that he had left this world.

The atmosphere fell into silence.

Only in the middle of the night did he notice that the gray-haired old man who sat next to Uncle Nie and kept silent seemed a little unusual.

He is by no means a spirit, but he is not a mortal either.

Midnight's sharp eyes were on him, and he could only smile helplessly.

After all, from his point of view, he knew that San Geng in front of him was a little weird, but he didn't know San Geng's true identity.

The two sides looked at each other in this silence, with the same doubts about the identity of the other party in their hearts.

Of course it was Tang Yu who broke the silence, and it could only be him.

He pulled out a chair and sat on it, looking at Uncle Nie and asking about the cause of Uncle Nie's death.

"Uncle Nie, how did you die? Is it really what the rumors say..."

Nie Zhenghua was taken aback by Tang Yu's question, but he had no words to refute.

After all, that was the truth, so he could only sigh and nodded heavily.

Tang Yu felt a little dumb for a moment, but despite this, he still expressed regret for Uncle Nie's death.

"Who is this?"

Tang Yu looked at the old man next to him and asked Uncle Nie.

"I don't know, he came before you..."

Uncle Nie's voice was very low, and he seemed a little weak.

"You all look like mortals, but this girl is obviously different."

The man said leisurely that he wanted to use this to find out the details of the third watch.

"We don't violate the water in the well."

Midnight suddenly spoke, then dragged Tang Yu to leave.After leaving the guard room, Tang Yu still didn't understand why he behaved like this in the middle of the night.

But he still followed San Geng and left because he believed in San Geng unconditionally.

"That guy is neither a human nor a ghost."

"Then what is he?"

Tang Yu frowned and asked. After all, the old man looked about the same age as Uncle Nie. At first, Tang Yu thought he was a friend he made after Uncle Nie died...

But this is clearly not the case.

"Let's talk at home."

Midnight did not talk to Tang Yu in detail outside, but just urged Tang Yu to go home.

Tang Yu didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the third watch at all, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and go home with the third watch.

As soon as he got home, he saw that San Geng's pupils had returned to normal. Tang Yu didn't even take off his clothes, so he anxiously asked San Geng what happened just now.

"That guy should be a god."

Midnight looked into Tang Yu's eyes and spoke word by word.

Tang Yu was obviously stunned after hearing this. After all, he had never seen an immortal before. After all, he didn't know whether people like Black and White, Impermanence and Meng Po were essentially immortals.

In most people's thinking, immortals should be in the sky, not underground...

"Immortal? Which immortal is he? Taishang Laojun? Taibaijinxing?"

Tang Yu kept asking, but San Geng just shook her head, indicating that she didn't know anything about it.

Not long after the two arrived home, there was a knock on the door outside.

Tang Yu walked to the door and opened it. The old man wearing a brown windbreaker and a black hat was standing outside the door.

"you……"

Tang Yu didn't know what to say for a moment, but looking at the polite smile on the other person's face, and because San Geng had said that he was not an ordinary person, Tang Yu still invited him into his house.

"Speaking of which, I think you are somewhat similar to me in the past. To be precise, it's not just similar, it should be exactly the same."

As soon as the man sat on the sofa, he spoke to Tang Yu.

Tang Yu felt like he had heard this somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a moment.

"What do you want from coming to my house?"

Tang Yu's tone was quite polite, and he even poured a cup of tea for the other party.

At this time, San Geng came out of the room. The man looked at San Geng, and the smile on his face became even stronger.

"I know the underworld doesn't want to have anything to do with the fairy world, but I'm here just to represent myself."

The man looked at San Geng and said, San Geng stood quietly in front of the man and spoke after a while.

"It seems you have guessed my identity."

"Those who can see souls are not gods, so they are naturally from the underworld."

"Then what about you, who are you?"

Midnight asked, but the man didn't say anything. He just pulled out a red thread from his pocket.

Tang Yu looked at the red line and knew the man's true identity just by association.

"Are you Yuelao?"

Tang Yu was amazed.

He had written about characters like the God of Marriage in online novels before, but he never thought that he would be able to meet a real person one day.

"To be precise, I am the God of Marriage, and Yuelao is just what mortals call me."

But San Geng didn't show the slightest surprise, on the contrary, San Geng seemed a little indifferent.

Although San Geng always has a poker face, Tang Yu can feel that San Geng doesn't seem to like the man in front of him very much.

"What are you doing here?"

"I just wanted to talk to you about that man."

"It's common sense in the world that people cannot be resurrected after death. Besides, it doesn't matter how he died. The underworld only deals with the aftermath, and other things are not what the underworld should think about."

"So the underworld can let the soul stay in the world based on its personal wishes?"

The man asked back, but there was clearly something else behind his words.

He is threatening the third watch.

Just this tone, even Tang Yu could hear it.

In an instant, Tang Yu began to hate this man from the bottom of his heart.

But San Geng and Yue Lao are not on the same level as Tang Yu after all, so Tang Yu knows very well that he doesn't even need to speak now.

All he had to do was listen to the two people talking.

"what do you want."

San Geng remained vigilant all the time, and his tone became even colder.

"I just communicated with that man and expressed my apology to him. It was true that I was sleepy and exhausted that day, so I pulled the wrong red thread, which led to his accidental death. But there is God's will, and so is his death. Destined. I told him that it was impossible to resurrect from the dead, but I asked him about his wish. He only had one wish, that is, when he was reincarnated, he would not forget the memories of this life. Because in this case, he would not really die and could still be alive. A person's identity means meeting again those he misses."

"This is impossible and goes against the principles of the underworld."

"As I said just now, can the underworld just allow souls to stay in the world according to their own wishes? Doesn't the underworld not know how dangerous this is? A person's change between good and evil may only happen in an instant, let alone A dead soul whose will is already weak.”

"What if I don't say yes."

"Then I will give a copy of the underworld in front of the Emperor of Heaven."

"Aren't you afraid that the underworld will tell you that you led the wrong red line? Then both sides will suffer."

"So, instead of losing both sides, it would be better for the underworld to give me some face and let me make up for my mistakes, otherwise I will always feel guilty towards that man."

"You deserve to have the underworld give you some face."

This is the first time Tang Yu has seen a tense scene between San Geng and others.

Moreover, Tang Yu had never seen such a third update.

San Geng has no emotions, but Tang Yu can even feel an emotion invisibly.

And this emotion does not seem to come from the third watch, but more like an emotion that exists around her.

Tang Yu felt that there was nothing wrong.

The emotions surrounding me at midnight were unintentionally carried over when I left the underworld.

Deep in the underworld, there is a trace of silent emotion towards the man in front of me that remains to this day.

Tang Yu suddenly remembered what the God of Marriage said that he looked exactly like him before.

He had indeed heard such words before, when he met a clone of Po Meng in the Ghost King's Palace in Fengdu Ghost City.

Could it be...

In this way, the mood of the third watch makes sense.

At the same time, next to the Naihe Bridge in the underworld, Po Meng, who had always retained a faint spiritual power in the third watch, seemed to sense something.

She looked up at the dark sky above her. There was no moon today.

She imprisoned herself in darkness for thousands of years, but her obsession with that man never diminished even a little.

She slowly closed her old, drooping eyes.

It seemed as if his voice calling him Ah Cha sounded in my ears again.

Traveling through thousands of years, it is unforgettable.
