If she sold the matches herself, could she break through the current situation?
However, would these 'people' buy them?
According to what was displayed in the Live Stream: Daily Healing in the Underworld,
Ghost domains were generally divided into two types:
The first type: Rule-based.
Even the owner of the ghost domain could only follow the rules.
The second type: A world centered around the owner of the ghost domain, where everything followed the owner's will.
"Now it all depends on whether I can sell them..."
As someone who had received over a decade of education and read many promotional texts,
Lin Ruoyi didn't believe selling a small box of matches would be difficult for her.
Unless...
"Sir, excuse me, did you buy a turkey?"
Lin Ruoyi stood on the sidewalk, spotting a family of three passing by.
She stepped forward, politely lifting the hem of her skirt on both sides.
And greeted them with a smile.
This family of three was neatly dressed, but not particularly elaborately.
Families like this were likely not very wealthy.
Yet, the little girl's hair accessory was new, and her bracelet was new.
Clearly, they weren't stingy about spending a few extra cents on such an occasion.
Most importantly,
The atmosphere between the three of them was very good.
They didn't seem like people who would lose their temper at the slightest disagreement.
"Hm?"
The family of three, stopped by Lin Ruoyi, paused.
The man, wearing an overcoat, looked at the young girl in front of him, who appeared to be about fourteen or fifteen years old.
He was a little confused by her sudden question.
However, with his gentlemanly demeanor, he politely replied:
"Yes."
Lin Ruoyi clasped her hands together at her chest, one hand holding the other.
Her expression was joyful as she said:
"It must be a very delicious turkey. I wish you all a wonderful Christmas Eve."
The man glanced at his wife, and smiles appeared on both their faces.
No one dislikes praise and blessings.
Lin Ruoyi continued:
"Imagine, on a beautiful Christmas Eve, with snow falling outside, everyone sitting together at the dining table.
The table is filled with all sorts of delicious food, and the candlelight illuminates everyone's faces.
Oh, how heartwarming it is..."
Saying this,
Lin Ruoyi suddenly paused, as if she had just remembered something.
She inquired curiously, "Oh, right sir, have you prepared the small matches to light up your heartwarming evening?"
Upon hearing this, the man's face showed a thoughtful expression.
After a moment, he looked at his wife and said, "Darling, do we still have matches at home?"
"Probably? Left over from last time?" the woman replied uncertainly.
The little girl swayed slightly to the music on the street, happily saying:
"Matches! Matches! Daddy, it would be such a shame if there were no candles when we eat turkey tonight."
The man nodded slightly, "That's true."
Lin Ruoyi seized the opportune moment to promote her product, smiling and saying:
"Sir, if you don't mind, I can help you solve this small problem."
...
The man took a box of matches, about the size of an eraser.
At the same time, he handed the girl in front of him a green banknote with a value of 2.
Lin Ruoyi took the banknote.
She lifted the sides of her skirt and bowed slightly.
"Thank you for your generosity. I wish you a wonderful evening."
The man smiled, looking at her.
He said meaningfully, "The same wishes to you."
Before Lin Ruoyi could ponder further, the man, with his wife and daughter, left.
Lin Ruoyi looked at the paper money in her hand, her mind made up.
—This was a rule-based ghost domain.
Otherwise, they could have simply starved her to death, there would be no need to let her die a satisfied ghost.
!!!
Thump thump! Thump thump!
As Lin Ruoyi looked at the paper money, a bone-chilling cold suddenly spread throughout her body.
Her heart began to pound violently.
Her vision spun.
Bang!
The girl collapsed on the ground.
"We wish you a merry Christmas... We wish you a merry Christmas..."
The music, as usual, spread its joyful notes.
Through her shifted vision, various shoes walked by.
Red high heels, black leather shoes, green children's shoes with bows...
The voices of people continued as usual,
Seeming far away, yet also close.
Indistinct.
Her body grew colder and colder, almost turning into ice.
Why?
Why? What went wrong?
Lin Ruoyi's mind frantically reviewed everything that had just happened, but her thoughts became increasingly sluggish.
Could this be blood money?
No, she had obtained it through a legitimate transaction!
Then why? Did it exceed a certain time limit?
Or was there something she overlooked?
...
The paper money in her hand continuously emitted a chilling cold, eroding Lin Ruoyi's body.
Her consciousness also grew increasingly hazy.
She seemed to hear the laughter of a devil.
Just then,
A flash of white light appeared before her eyes, and a wave of heat emanated from Lin Ruoyi's chest.
It quickly dispelled the chill from her body.
And caused the black mist attached to the paper money to dissipate completely.
After an unknown amount of time,
Lin Ruoyi's consciousness gradually returned. She sat up, moving with difficulty.
To sit by the roadside.
She touched her chest, feeling a warmth there.
It was a jade pendant her grandfather had found for her.
Besides the jade pendant, there was also a peace bead.
Obtained from the streamer's live stream.
"It seems I've managed to cling to life for now..."
She scanned the pedestrians on the street. At this moment, black mist was emanating from everyone in her sight.
They looked this way intentionally or unintentionally, as if watching a joke, or as if waiting for something.
Their expressions were sinister.
"Was it the paper money, or the time limit?"
Lin Ruoyi thought for a moment, then simply got up.
She would buy some food.
This way, she could spend the paper money and replenish her body's energy.
...
She walked towards the shop in the corner of the street,
Without revealing any emotion on her face,
Her hands, held at her sides, were clenched tightly.
—She was determined to survive!

#NationalGirlfriendPassesAway#
In the Live Stream: Daily Healing in the Underworld,
After the streamer took Xu Pangzi away, the live stream was closed.
As soon as the viewers exited the live stream, they saw the hot search of the night.
The internet had exploded.
"??? What happened? Did I do something wrong, why would they take away my wife?"
"The internet says she died of illness... but wasn't she only around thirty? So young!"
"Please, don't take away my girlfriend!"
"Do you guys remember? My wife was on the streamer's live stream before? Could it be because of that...?"
Which one?
The one where she experienced soul out-of-body and damaged her body!
So that's how it is... Wait, so my wife was really cultivating immortality?
You're an idiot, how could someone cultivating immortality be so young... Holy crap, could it be qi deviation?
You guys upstairs know too much, just destroy it!
...
(PS: Insider information that can be revealed so far—the paper money itself is harmless, but it is attached with the malice of ghosts.
If the body is in good condition, it will only cause temporary discomfort.
But if the body is already not in a good state, it will only make things worse.
In addition,
Ghosts can also find the holder by means of the malice attached to the paper money.)
