"Master..."
Seeing Jiang Lin emerge, the ghosts on the spirit carriage all stood up.
Their hands unconsciously tightened their clothes.
"Mm."
Jiang Lin circled the spirit carriage, examining it. He had reinforced it before, and it looked as good as new.
Now, after about half a year, many signs of repair had appeared on it.
Some places still showed the curves of dents and bumps.
Looking at the front of the vehicle, one of the rearview mirrors was secured with a rope.
Just as he was watching, there was a 'crack'.
The rearview mirror fell off.
"!!!"
The group of ghosts on the spirit carriage gasped, instinctively reaching out.
Their hearts suddenly became flustered, and they exchanged glances.
'It's over, it's over, we let Master see such a pathetic state.'
'I just re-secured it before coming.'
'Master wouldn't be angry, would he...'
It was fine when they left, but it had become like this upon their return.
If Master got angry, would he stop them from going to the human world freely?
The ghost driver, receiving everyone's glances, had no choice but to brace himself and clear his throat:
"Cough, cough, Master, that..."
Before he could finish, he saw his Master use ghost energy to lift the rearview mirror and reattach it to the vehicle.
After fixing it, he didn't retract his hand.
Instead, he continued to envelop the entire vehicle with ghost energy.
At this, the ghosts in the entire vehicle widened their eyes.
No way, no way...
Master is going to destroy them all because he's angry?
A moment later, Jiang Lin withdrew his hand.
The ghosts in the vehicle blinked. Their bodies felt a little warm.
They poked their heads out of the window.
Huh? The vehicle looked brand new!
The ghost driver tapped the car body. This texture was clearly better than before!
Master had reinforced it for them again!
"Thank you, Master!"
"Master is amazing, you fixed it right away!"
The ghosts in the vehicle touched the car windows and the roof.
They couldn't put them down.
Their noses also felt a little sore.
Having lived in the vehicle for so many years, the spirit carriage had become half their home.
Naturally, they wanted to take care of their home.
But once they went out traveling, they were bound to encounter bumps and scrapes.
However, if they didn't go out, they wouldn't be able to find their families.
Then there would be no hope at all.
They couldn't let go, nor did they dare to.
Even if they could never remember their past...
It would be good if they could inadvertently help their own family someday.
After the reinforcement was complete,
Jiang Lin boarded the spirit carriage and asked, "How was your trip during this time?"
The ghost driver quickly brought out the records they had made along the way. It was a stack as tall as two Oxford dictionaries.
"Master, everything we encountered and saw on our journey is recorded here."
Jiang Lin: "..."
He flipped through them. Although it was a thick stack, it was not tiring to read.
Everything was categorized and clearly organized.
There were records of where they had gone and what they had encountered.
There were also records of places where ghosts appeared and caused trouble.
If compiled properly, it could even be a book titled "Spirit Carriage Travelogue."
"You've organized it very well," Jiang Lin praised.
A ghost passenger felt a little embarrassed by the praise, "I must have liked organizing things when I was alive. This habit has carried over."
Jiang Lin nodded, "You all did very well. Thank you for your hard work. Rest well before you go traveling again."
Hearing this, the ghosts in the vehicle repeatedly waved their hands.
"It's not hard, not hard."
"It's only right to do things for Master."
"Yes, yes, we are already very grateful that Master allows us to travel."
The group of ghosts spoke eagerly, afraid that their feelings would not be conveyed to Jiang Lin.
Master had given them passes to the Yin and Yang realms and reinforced their spirit carriage, ensuring their journey.
Compared to what Master had done for them, what were these efforts?
...
Afterwards,
Jiang Lin chatted with them about their travels before getting up to leave.
As he reached the door of the vehicle, he paused, turned back, and waved the stack of documents in his hand.
"If you have some free time, you can try writing a 'Spirit Carriage Travelogue.'
You can take it to the Ghost Market's Book Ink Pavilion to sell, and you can earn some pocket money."
Most of the ghosts in the Ghost Market stayed in the underworld.
They rarely had opportunities like the spirit carriage, traveling around every day.
If they adapted their experiences from this journey, those ghosts would probably enjoy reading it very much.
Jiang Lin just said it casually,
He didn't expect that afterwards, the ghosts on the spirit carriage actually compiled the "Spirit Carriage Travelogue."
Moreover, they sold many copies.
It became a bestseller in the underworld and gained many loyal fans.
Even many people in the human world heard about this miraculous book through ghosts.
...
...
After leaving the East Hall for about half a year, upon returning, there were many matters to attend to.
After Jiang Lin finished dealing with various affairs, it was already evening again.
He reviewed his trip to the Three Halls and remembered that there was one more thing to do.
Back in the Slacker Ghost Domain, he had invited many teachers to give lessons and help with exams.
Among them,
Nine human viewers had contributed the most, both in teaching and in helping with exams.
He had promised them compensation at the time. Later, while busy in the Three Halls and collecting useful ghost artifacts, he hadn't had the time to fulfill his promise.
Thinking of this, Jiang Lin sorted through the items he had collected from the Three Halls.
He placed a pile on his desk.
Then, he opened the live stream.
...
[Ding~ The 'Daily Healing in the Underworld' live stream you follow has started~]
Zhou Tangtang had just come out of the bathroom, wiping her hair as she walked.
When she heard her phone notification, she almost thought she was hallucinating.
It wasn't until she saw the words lighting up on her phone screen that she suddenly pounced on her bed and picked up her phone.
Quickly and skillfully, she entered the live stream.
"Hello, streamer, good evening!"
As soon as this comment was sent, it was immediately submerged in the flood of comments.
"The streamer is finally live! ✿✿ヽ(°▽°)ノ✿"
"Ghost Messenger, has something happened recently?"
The reason for asking this.
Was because the live stream had not been broadcasting for almost three days.
Jiang Lin and the others returned from the North Hall, one day.
Ghost Festival, one day.
Dealing with affairs today, also nearly one day.
The viewers, rounding up, directly considered it three days.
There was even a trending topic online #StreamerHasntBroadcastedForThreeDays#
Below it was a witty reply:
--My mom hasn't hit me for three days either.
...
Normally, even if the streamer had something to do, they wouldn't go several days without broadcasting.
What's more, yesterday was the Ghost Festival.
Although some viewers suspected they had seen the streamer's paper effigy, they couldn't fully confirm it because the streamer hadn't broadcast.
Therefore,
Many people online were speculating if something big had happened?
Some even guessed if the live stream had finally been banned.
Since the underworld live stream began broadcasting,
Although many people watched, not everyone could correctly perceive its existence.
There were always some conspiracy theorists, or those who felt the live stream was corrupting social values.
They said it contained violence and gore.
However, as soon as such remarks appeared, a large number of viewers would leave comments below.
It wasn't to curse, nor to refute.
They felt they were quite friendly and didn't want to tarnish the streamer's reputation.
Therefore, below were rows of:
???
????
[Black Person Question Mark]
...
Let's not even talk about the fact that this live stream isn't mandatory viewing. Even if it were, could you even turn it off?
During this time, the viewers had realized.
This live stream was not regulated by the human world at all.
Things from the underworld, could you still regulate them?
Moreover, saying it corrupted social values...
What in this live stream was corrupting social values?
This must be sarcasm, right??
As long as the live stream existed, it could suppress the ill intentions of many people!
And this was called a bad thing?
As for gore and violence...
Those were either the humans' own doing.
--Like the ghosts in the food feast, the streamer had even forcibly logged out many viewers.
Or it was something humans did themselves.
--Like evil-doing humans being exposed.
And, for things like nudity, the live stream had blurred them out.
Most importantly,
This was, in itself, an underworld live stream.
