Film and Television: Living in an Apartment, Part-Time Soul Ferryman

Page 10

Several people present gasped in unison!

Money moves people's hearts!

Wang Pangzi's previously dim eyes regained their brightness, the whites of his eyes even showing bloodshot veins, as he stared intently at Hu Bayi.

"Old Hu, let's do this damn job! If we fail, I'll never get married again and I'll adopt a few kids!"

Hu Bayi punched him on the shoulder, angrily saying, "Look at you, so pathetic!"

Fatty Wang persisted, "That's over 300 billion! It's a billion, not 30 million, and definitely not 3,000 yuan!"

Zeng Xiaoxian was already lost in wonderful daydreams.

"Hey, if I had three hundred billion, no, even three billion would be great, I would sponsor a radio station and put my show 'Your Moon, My Heart' on prime time!"

"No, I'm already so rich, why would I be a radio host? I should be a TV host!"

"From now on, I'll beat Wang Han with my fists, kick He Ling with my feet, and I won't even put Sa Beining in my eyes. Then I'll be the number one host in the world!"

Lin Wanyu said with a grin, "If I had 300 billion, I would deposit it in my family's bank, and I would be my dad's biggest customer!"

"He can forget about controlling me from now on. I can tell him to beat a dog, but he won't dare kill a chicken... He even wants me to marry the UAE's football prince. Keep dreaming!"

"I'll make him go and marry into a foreign power!"

"Marry him off to Professor McGonagall at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry!"

What a loving father and filial son!

Your mom will cry, won't she?

Even Guan Gu Shenqi, who seems to be invisible, couldn't help but say, "If I could earn even one percent of that much money, I would open my own comic book publishing company and specialize in publishing the comics I like!"

"I can have my senior brother be my comic assistant... Hmph, so he won't look down on my comics. He's practically turning against the heavens!"

"My love triangle is a million times better than his comics!"

Hu Yifei rolled her eyes in annoyance, flicked her finger, and sent out several wisps of sword energy that accurately struck the foreheads of the group who were lost in their fantasies.

"Wake up! Is money all you care about?"

"Using Kunlun sacred wood to make money is the lowest form of disposal!"

"When the Jianmu tree collapsed back then, bigwigs from all sides fought tooth and nail for it because it was so precious!"

"It is said that the Lingxiao Palace in the Heavenly Realm was made of Jianmu wood, which shows how valuable it is!"

"The Jianmu tree is divided into Yin and Yang. The upper Jianmu tree is Yang, and because it is close to the celestial realm, it is filled with celestial energy!"

"The lower level of the Jianmu tree is yin, and because it is close to the Nine Netherworlds, it is filled with the aura of the Yellow Springs!"

"Since the Queen of Jingjue used Jianmu as her coffin, that piece of Kunlun divine wood must be located near the Nine Netherworlds."

"If we can forge a spirit sword from the Nine Netherworld Jianmu tree, we can slay all evil and malevolent things!"

"Moreover, just one gram of Nine Netherworld Wood, when combined with other materials to create the Netherworld Incense, allows the soul to leave the body and freely travel through the underworld!"

"As long as the incense of the Netherworld remains burning, the soul can roam freely in the underworld, and no evil spirit can harm it!"

"So now you know how precious this Kunlun Divine Tree is, right?"

"Ordinary cultivators would treasure even a single gram of Jianmu wood as a family heirloom, and you actually want to sell it for money?"

Everyone was captivated by Hu Yifei's description of the benefits of Jianmu.

But the curse of the Ghost Cave is an insurmountable hurdle!

At this time.

Li Yang smiled slightly, "It's not impossible to lift the curse of the Ghost Cave. All we need to do is shut down the Serpent God's Transformation Realm and close the Imaginary Space!"

Everyone's eyes lit up.

"Comrade Li, do you have a solution?"

Professor Chen looked at Li Yang anxiously. He had been preparing for more than ten years to go to Jingjue Ancient City for archaeological work, and he did not want to give up if there was any way.

Li Yang held up two fingers.

"To shut down the Serpent God's imaginary space, we need to find two things!"

Chapter Twelve: Shirley Yang's Night Visit!

Li Yang shook two fingers.

Lu Ziqiao and Hu Bayi's eyes followed the movement of his finger.

Professor Chen said impatiently, "Comrade Li, at this point, stop being so mysterious and tell everyone what the two things are?"

Li Yang withdrew one finger. "First, the Muchen Pearl, also known as the Serpent God's Eye!"

"The Eye of the Serpent God contains the soul of the Serpent God and extremely vast energy; it is the key to opening and closing the imaginary space!"

As he spoke, he extended the finger he had just used.

"Secondly, a pair of eyes! Human eyes!"

"Back then, the capital of the Demon Kingdom, Ero City, sank into the water due to a major earthquake and was frozen in glaciers for thousands of years."

"In the city of Evil Luo Sea, there is a huge altar, where the bones of the Demon Kingdom's priest, the Serpent God, are located!"

"Only by placing the Muchen Pearl and a pair of human eyes on the altar device can the Serpent God's imaginary space be shut down, thus lifting the curse of the Ghost Cave!"

The booth fell silent again as everyone processed the information.

Hu Bayi shook his head and sighed, "Difficult! This is really too difficult!"

"The Mountain Moving lineage has searched for thousands of years without finding the Muchen Pearl. How could we possibly find it so easily!"

Professor Chen also sighed, "The whereabouts of the Muchen Pearl remains a mystery. According to historical records, the King of Dian in the ancient Dian Kingdom once possessed the Muchen Pearl, but Emperor Wu of Han demanded it back."

"Later, Emperor Wu of Han had the Muchen Pearl buried with him in Maoling!"

"In the second year of Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu, the Red Eyebrow Army captured Chang'an and looted Maoling for three months. Since then, the whereabouts of the Muchen Pearl have been unknown!"

Without the Muchen Pearl, everything is in vain!

Hu Yifei stared intently at Li Yang.

"Li Yang, do you know the whereabouts of the Muchen Pearl?"

She wasn't sure either; she was just saying it casually.

After all, Li Yang is a ferryman of souls. What is a great secret in the mortal world may just be gossip among the underworld gods.

After all, once those souls who possess great secrets enter the underworld, they are required to reveal everything they know during their trial!

Everyone looked at Li Yang again, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Li Yang smiled and said, "I do know..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shirley Yang suddenly took his hands in her own and held them tightly, her face full of affection.

A cool sensation flowed continuously from Li Yang's hand to Shirley Yang's arm, then down to her right shoulder, permeating the red-eyed curse mark.

The feeling of comfort almost made Shirley Yang fly to heaven!

"Mr. Li Yang, please tell me the whereabouts of the Muchen Pearl, so that my Zagrama clan can be freed from thousands of years of suffering!"

"Such a great kindness and virtue is beyond repayment; I am willing to..."

"Wait a moment!"

Mika, who was standing nearby, called out.

"I know this plot very well!"

"That's how it's always portrayed in period romance dramas. After a hero saves a beautiful woman, if the hero is not good-looking, the beautiful woman will say... 'I have no way to repay you, so I can only be your servant in my next life!'"

"If the hero is handsome and dashing, the beautiful woman's eyes will light up and she will say, 'I have nothing to repay you with but my body!'"

"Shirley Yang, you wouldn't be thinking of marrying Li Yang, would you?"

Mika glared angrily at Shirley Yang.

How annoying this woman is!

It felt like I had two extra-large peaches stuffed into my chest, a serious blow to my flat chest!

That's fine!

How could an outsider like her come to Love Apartment to steal a handsome guy!

Moreover, they wanted to know the whereabouts of the Muchen Pearl, and they also wanted Li Yang. They tried to take advantage of everyone, shameless indeed!

Faced with Meijia's accusations, Shirley Yang did not hide anything, but instead frankly admitted, "I don't mind having a deeper emotional development with Mr. Li Yang!"

Ooh~

In the booth area, apart from Professor Chen and Hao Aiguo, the other male comrades all let out a series of wolf-like howls of mockery.

Hu Yifei suddenly let out a soft hum.

"Don't try to change the subject, talk about the Muchen Pearl!"

She noticed that everyone was trying to matchmake Li Yang and Shirley Yang, which we all found distasteful. She also recalled the scene on the rooftop where Li Yang caught her bare-handed with a blade.

Li Yang was the first man to conquer her... Pshaw, what conquer? He just cleverly controlled her!

Hu Yifei's body unconsciously released a sharp sword aura, making everyone present feel a chill down their spines.

"Alright, alright, let's not change the subject, let's talk about the Muchen Pearl!"

"Li Yang, could you tell me the whereabouts of the Muchen Pearl?"

The others hurriedly urged Li Yang, especially Zeng Xiaoxian, who was the most enthusiastic. After all, as Hu Yifei's roommate who had lived with her for a while, he knew very well that this was a sign that Hu Yifei was about to get angry!

Why are you suddenly angry?

Li Yang said, "The whereabouts of the Muchen Pearl are in the Yunnan Insect Valley!"

"Back then, Emperor Wu of Han asked the King of Dian for the Muchen Pearl, but he didn't know that the Muchen Pearl was actually in the hands of the King of Xian."

"King Xian was unwilling to hand over the Muchen Pearl, so he led a group of people away from the ancient Dian Kingdom and headed to Zhelong Mountain!"

"The King of Dian was worried that Emperor Wu of Han would be furious and easily destroy his ancient Dian Kingdom, so he gave Emperor Wu's envoy a Shadow Pearl to impersonate the Muchen Pearl."

"Emperor Wu of Han never saw the real Muchen Pearl, so this matter was easily covered up!"

"King Xian led his army to defeat the natives of Zhelong Mountain and forced them to build a massive tomb for him in the mountains!"

"King Xian used the corpses of three generations to set up a defense in the sky and a water dragon halo, and for nearly two thousand years no one has been able to break through this barrier!"

"However, as far as I know, a plane crashed into the Insect Valley in recent times, which broke the formation of the Tomb of the King of Xian!"

"This tomb of King Xian is fraught with danger. King Xian was a master of divination during his lifetime, and his tomb is fraught with peril. The tomb is a place where many dangers lurk, and the intricacies of its layout are hidden ...

……

Another ten or so happiness points were earned, and everyone present contributed one happiness point to Li Yang!

Li Yang speculated that the characters from Love Apartment would all be involved in the Ghost Blows Out the Light storyline!

Fatty Wang took a deep breath.

"Holy crap, this King Xian's tomb is so dangerous... and that old bastard King Xian is such a scoundrel, actually using some kind of rubbish to..."

"Someone like that dares to dream of becoming an immortal?"

"Go to hell!"

"Old Hu, we must go to the tomb of King Xian to retrieve the Muchen Pearl, and then burn that giant zombie of King Xian. It would be an act of justice on behalf of Heaven!"

Hu Bayi nodded. "Since the King of Xian is so cruel and inhumane, if we go to the Yunnan Insect Valley to steal the Muchen Pearl, perhaps we will be protected by the will of Heaven!"

"However, we must be wary of the monsters that Li Yang just mentioned, and we must make thorough preparations in advance!"

Hu Yifei let out a cold laugh as wisps of sword energy emanated from her fingertips.

"Hmph, mere demons and monsters, I'll slay them with a single sword strike!"
