In the pitch-black Underworld, the Road to the Underworld, the Bridge of Helplessness, the Stone of Three Lives … A long queue was lined up neatly.
Xu Zhi walked slowly and looked at the three creatures he had just recruited. They were extremely ugly and ferocious. As expected, the style of this place was more normal. It was in line with the Underworld and didn't look like the Animal Realm …
Those guys had already started the livestream.
"The server has been open for half a day. Let's see how things are going here."
Xu Zhi sorted out his thoughts and went to Meng Po's side. Shangguan Man had already abandoned the water dispenser and was sitting at the head of the Bridge of Helplessness, continuously feeding soup to Meng Po. It was very old-fashioned. When she saw Xu Zhi, she was slightly startled and quickly stood up.
"No need to be so polite." Xu Zhi smiled.
Shangguan Man hung up the "Closed" sign and walked toward the Samsara Temple. He said, "Your Majesty! Over the years, I've successfully recruited the Black and White Impermanence according to your request … They are responsible for maintaining order. The Black and White Impermanence were originally asexual, but they split into two, one male and one female, one Yin and one Yang. They are twins, and their attributes repel each other. When they attack together, their combat strength is very exaggerated. They can deal with the perpetrators of the Underworld and do other chores. "
Xu Zhi gazed into the distance.
He saw two strange zombie-like creatures with long tongues and pale faces maintaining order on the Road to the Underworld in the distance. He couldn't help but nod.
They were originally one person?
Split into a male and a female?
That's not bad.
After all, he didn't intend to completely conform to the ancient myths. It was very unrealistic to make the Underworld he had created exactly the same!
Xu Zhi looked around and couldn't help but ask, "I've never seen such a talented person in the Book of Life and Death …"
Shangguan Man hurriedly answered, "I've cultivated it. I've been receiving reincarnated people, and I saw a person who was born without a gender. He was a gender-neutral deformed child who was discriminated against for generations. After careful observation, I found that this person was extremely strange, as if he had yet to be born, but also vaguely separated Yin and Yang. There were signs of schizophrenia, and his talent hadn't taken shape yet … I felt that he was somewhat similar to my childhood, so I felt compassion for him. After many generations of reincarnation, I secretly entered the mortal world and secretly guided and corrected his life, guiding his talent to become what I wanted!"
Xu Zhi's heart sank.
His talent was corrected by secretly influencing him?
It could be done.
After all, it was the convergence of the infatuation, obsession, and obsession of generations of people. If he continuously and secretly influenced the lives of generations of people, he could influence the direction of development of their natural talents and induce it to take form.
After all, "I think, therefore I am."
It was just that this was not easy, and it would take a lot of time and effort.
Xu Zhi suddenly felt that he had found a reliable person. Shangguan Man was such a perfectionist. Otherwise, she wouldn't have made him uglier and shorter. Now, she would show him that horribly gentle and charming smile from time to time to match the image of Meng Po.
He immediately felt relieved.
Xu Zhi finally had a reliable subordinate who could take care of everything. He couldn't help but say to Shangguan Man, "Thank you for your hard work. In order to create a suitable talent, you guided it through several reincarnations."
"Not at all." Shangguan Man shook his head, feeling flattered. He hurriedly said, "It's just a subordinate's duty to guide suitable existences in reincarnation. It's just that during this period of time, in order to pursue perfect talent, I only guided the Black and White Impermanence. I haven't found the other Judges, Ox-Head, and Horse-Face yet."
Xu Zhi didn't care. He just had to take it slow.
"Black and White Impermanence, come and greet His Majesty." Shangguan Man waved his hand, his voice hoarse and old.
Soon, on the Road to the Underworld in the distance, a pair of twins, one black and one white, walked over. Suddenly, they slowly fused together, like changing faces in a Sichuan opera. Half of their bodies were black, and the other half was white. They slowly bowed. "Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"Get up and continue with your work," Xu Zhi said.
"Yes!" The Black and White Impermanence stood up, curiosity flashing in their eyes. Was this the His Majesty that Granny Meng had mentioned? They didn't dare to stay for long. They split into two and continued to maintain the order on the Road to the Underworld.
After all, in the current reincarnation, the Road to the Underworld was becoming more and more crowded.
Shangguan Man bent his back and continued, "Although the rest of the Underworld talents are nowhere to be seen, we have taken in a third person … although this person is not on the recruitment list that His Majesty has mentioned."
"I see him." How could Xu Zhi not notice this third creature? It was a pitch-black, skinny man in black sitting cross-legged on the edge of the Three-Life Stone. He had no flesh on his body, and his skin was wrapped around his bones. He looked more like a skeleton. He looked excited, obsessed, and sick. He looked at the lives of others on the Three-Life Stone, which was very disgusting.
It had to be said that it was very creepy, in line with the spiritual appearance of the Underworld.
"He can't come to greet His Majesty …"
Shangguan Man smiled bitterly, cupped his fists, and bowed. "Because he doesn't have a normal mind. He's crazy. He's sometimes clear, and sometimes blurry. It's very difficult to communicate. He can be regarded as a madman."
"Oh?" Xu Zhi looked at the creepy skeleton-like man.
Shangguan Man continued, "His talent is very strange. He can peep into other people's privacy and tell others about it. He also has an extremely terrifying memory … In his third life, he was a crazy old woman who peeped at men and women and gossiped about it to the neighbors. In the end, he was beaten to death … In his seventh life, he was a crazy beggar who peeped at a rich young master looking for women. In the end, he was also beaten to death …"
Xu Zhi's eyelids twitched. This person's talent is gossip? Gossip? Peeped into other people's privacy and gossiped about it?
Shangguan Man said, "He likes to peep into other people's privacy and has an excellent memory. As long as you ask him, he will tell you everything … So, I thought that since he likes to peep into other people's privacy so much, why don't we let him read the Book of Life and Death and the Three-Life Stone? He can record the information of the entire Underworld and learn the secrets of all the creatures in the world. Then, we can ask him when necessary. With his ability to gossip, he will answer all our questions …"
Xu Zhi's eyes widened.
He couldn't help but think highly of Shangguan Man.
He wanted to let this gossipy guy read the Book of Life and Death and the Three-Life Stone to satisfy his desire to gossip. Then, he would become a human-shaped library that could search for him and ask him questions at any time. Naturally, it would be much more convenient.
"How should we name such a creature?" Shangguan Man asked.
"Hmm …" Xu Zhi thought for a moment and suddenly smiled. "Since this creature has such a terrifying memory and likes to peep into other people's privacy all the time … Why don't we call him 'Di Ting'?"
"Di Ting?" Shangguan Man's eyes gradually lit up. He clapped his hands. "As expected of Your Majesty. What a great artistic conception!"
