Those years of doing business in the Three Realms

Chapter 62 The Underworld

"Where are Brother Pluto and the others?" Lin Xiang felt that he had followed Ruyi for a long time.

"Come on, not far ahead, there is a noodle shop known as the number one in the underworld. Everyone is waiting for you inside." Ruyi deliberately put the word "known as" in a very strong tone.

Lin Xiang immediately understood: "The world is declining, and people's hearts are not as old as they used to be! How can a person dare to claim to be number one now? How can he still be the best in the underworld? I dare say that if the boss eats the noodles made by you, Sister Ruyi, he will go home immediately in shame. Went to play Kou Kou Farm.”

After hearing this, Ruyi happily said, "It's not as exaggerated as you said. I just have some talent in making noodles."

"Sister Ruyi's noodles are the best in the world. No, no, no, she should be the best in the three realms!"

Ruyi waved his hand: "Oh, it's nothing."

"What I said are true feelings! Real feelings!" Lin Xiang said exaggeratedly, holding Ruyi's arm with both hands naturally, leaning in to get close to her while peeking at her expression. Seeing that Ruyi's expression was normal, he continued: "You are the best in my heart."

Ruyi was about to say something when he heard someone not far ahead shouting: "Master!"

Grandmaster?

Lin Xiang was startled. Was he talking to him?
  Impossible, he felt that he had no acquaintances in the underworld.

Taking a closer look, I saw that this man was thin, with messy hair, and a pale complexion. There was a familiar sense of wretchedness between his brows and eyes. It looked like he had used too much toilet paper.

"Know?" Lin Xiang asked doubtfully, he was still not sure.

"Master!" The young man shouted again happily, and then rushed towards Lin Xiang enthusiastically.

As he got closer, Lin Xiang suddenly remembered, wasn't this the Lan Ke he had saved? He was the one who was haunted by the spider spirit that day!
  Why does this guy appear in the underworld at such a young age?
  Seeing that Lan Ke was going to kill two birds with one stone with this gesture, Lin Xiang quickly stood in front of Ruyi and hugged Lan Ke.

When Lan Ke saw that he had not hugged the beautiful woman, he was determined to do it again.

Lin Xiang, who had quick eyes and quick hands, directly put his arms around his shoulders and pulled Lan Ke aside and said: "Brother, what do you want to do?"

"What didn't you want to do?" Lan Ke said pretending to be stupid.

"You bastard..." Lin Xiang thought, he was really a bastard, so he changed his words: "You pervert!"

"Is this your girlfriend?"

"Nonsense!" Lin Xiang denied.

"Then what's wrong with me giving you a polite hug?"

"Aren't I afraid that you will hug the dead body without a body? I am really doing it for your own good, brother! Besides, if you know someone, you should hug them! Don't be a gangster!"

Lan Ke nodded: "I know you. I vaguely feel like this fairy-like sister saved me."

"Don't mess with your relatives..." Lin Xiang thought it was true. He had indeed beaten away the spider spirit as he wished. So he quickly changed the subject and said, "Brother, why are you dead?"

"Master, I don't know. I was walking fine on the street that day, and suddenly a wine bottle fell from the sky..."

Lin Xiang held back his laughter: "I see, please be more serious."

"What?"

"I mean the bad guy who throws objects from high altitudes has no moral integrity. You must reason with him when he comes to the underworld after death."

"The steward here said that it was because I accidentally hit him and killed him in my previous life, so he came to collect debts in this life. We are settled."

"I see."

"Master, are you dead too?" Lan Ke asked.

Lin Xiang was stunned: "That's right."

"Master, how did you die..."

Originally, he just wanted to say a few words to settle the matter, but unexpectedly, Lan Ke kept talking non-stop. Prime Minister Lin was also anxious and wanted to leave but couldn't.

But it was a strange fate that two people in the human world could meet each other in the underworld and recognize each other. Lin Xiang had no choice but to listen patiently to what Lan Ke had to say.

The two were chatting, and the straight-tempered Ruyi began to urge impatiently, while giving Lan Ke a hard look.

When Lan Ke saw this, he was instantly frightened and said to Lin Xiang: "Let's do this for now. Then we will be reincarnated together! My number of the underworld bird talisman is 123212321. Please contact me if you need anything."

What the hell is a bird charm?

Prime Minister Lin didn't want to know either. He didn't even remember the number, so he just agreed: "Okay, brother!"    ——————

A unique noodle shop in the underworld.

There were only five of them customers in the huge noodle shop.

The owner of the noodle shop is an old woman with a wrinkled face and a smile. Maybe because she is too old, her face has deep grooves, causing her face to be blurred.

She stood aside and said, "Call me if you need anything. If you need to add ingredients or soup, call me."

The old woman's voice was very hoarse, like sawing dry wood, with a bit of harshness in it.

Four people and one rabbit politely replied: "Okay, thank you, old lady."

The whole family gathers around the table to eat noodles.

Lin Xiang looked at the bowl of fresh and refined noodles in front of him and couldn't take it down. He confirmed again and again: "Is it really edible?"

Pluto nodded: "You can eat it."

"Why is the soup black?"

"It may be made of rotten materials from the underworld. Most people in the underworld like this."

"Why is the gas coming out green?"

"Do you think it's normal for this color noodle soup to have steaming white gas? Rot and green gas go better together." Pluto said half-jokingly.

"Really?" Lin Xiang pointed to the red root-like thing floating on the bowl and asked, "What is this?"

Pluto explained again: "The evil tongue."

When Xiang Lin heard this, he was so frightened that he dropped his chopsticks to the ground.

Seeing this, the old woman quickly handed over a new pair of chopsticks.

Lin Xiang said thank you, turned around, and suddenly found that the old woman with a head had become a headless person, with nothing above her neck.

Lin Xiang was so frightened that he almost dropped his chopsticks again: "Holy shit, old lady, where's your head?"

"Here it is!" came a reply from the bar.

Lin Xiang turned around and saw that it was indeed the old woman's head.

I saw the head with a smile on its face, placed quietly on the bar, its mouth opening and closing to talk to him.

"..."

This meal is inedible.

Lin Xiang asked Ruyi for a few holy fruits, so feel free to give them to him.

After eating the holy fruit, Lin Xiang picked up Qiu Sha's tongue in the bowl with chopsticks and looked around in front of his eyes.

I saw that the tongue was thin and long, red and purple, and the root was a little black.

It's sticky and soft, not elastic at all.

How does this look like a tongue? It's just a piece of rotten meat.

He, Prime Minister Lin, is starving to death! Starved into mummies! I won’t eat this stuff either!

Then he curiously put his tongue under his nose and smelled it.

But before I could smell it, I lost my chopsticks and dropped my tongue on the table.

At this time, a magical scene happened. A big mouth suddenly appeared on the table where the tongue fell, and swallowed Qiu Sha's tongue in three strokes.

Lin Xiang was stunned!
  At the end, the table shook slightly, and the mouth suddenly appeared and solemnly said to Lin Xiang: "Thank you for the reward."

The hoarse voice is exactly the same as that of the noodle shop owner.
