"Ding~ Congratulations to the host for completing the advancement mission: Drifting Bottle Wishes (3/3)!"
"Rewards have been issued, please check!"
"Ding~ Drifting Bottle novice guidance is complete. Daily tasks have now been added, and you can complete one Drifting Bottle wish per day!"
As the system prompt sounded, Jiang Lin had just brought You Xiaoxiao to the entrance of the West Hall Underworld.
At the same time, three strands of golden divine power were added to his body.
Jiang Lin was about to check the daily tasks mentioned by the system.
If the drifting bottle was included, there would be a total of four daily tasks.
Live stream, promoting underworld culture, faith, and drifting bottle.
"Brother Jiang?"
A voice came from behind Jiang Lin.
Tai Qin looked surprised, "Are you done with what you needed to do?"
Jiang Lin: "Mm. Almost."
"That's great, I just finished handing over my tasks with the other ghosts."
Tai Qin was about to drag Jiang Lin to drink, but his gaze fell on You Xiaoxiao behind him.
"This is...?"
He raised an eyebrow at Jiang Lin. You Xiaoxiao looked like a lively and playful type.
Could it be...
Jiang Lin ignored his strange look and shifted sideways.
He explained, "She passed away half a month ago and unintentionally lingered in the human world, becoming a ghost."
"I encountered her and brought her back."
Tai Qin noticed that Jiang Lin said 'unintentionally lingered in the human world'.
So she probably didn't do anything bad.
He withdrew his gaze and smiled, "So that's how it is. You didn't have to bring a gift, hahaha..."
"Let's go, I'll take her through the process first, together?"
Jiang Lin: "Okay."
You Xiaoxiao listened to the conversation between the two ghost envoys, and three question marks popped up in her mind.
A gift? Me?
???
What is this West Hall ghost envoy saying?!
But he is really handsome!
You Xiaoxiao had many thoughts, but outwardly she obediently followed the two ghost envoys into the underworld.
She dared not say anything.
...
But soon, You Xiaoxiao cast aside these complaining thoughts.
Her eyes sparkled.
Everything she saw was a super modern scene.
Unlike the East Hall,
The houses in the West Hall were small villas and high-rise buildings.
In the sky, aerial flight paths crisscrossed.
Supernatural trains occasionally drifted by.
Besides these, strange buildings floated in the air.
They looked like they were made of glass, exuding a seven-colored flowing light.
Many ghosts flew back and forth between these paths and houses.
Some wore pure black and white uniforms, like jumpsuits.
They had lapels, a black belt tied around their waists, and black boots on their feet.
They held silver handguns in their hands.
Some wore black clothes and pants, with a black coat with gold trim.
They held submachine guns in both hands, exuding an imposing aura.
They looked incredibly cool!
Most importantly!
You Xiaoxiao saw many animal ears!
There were wolf-eared boys, bunny-eared girls, cat lolis...
Ahhh!
This is heaven!
You Xiaoxiao's mouth was slightly agape, her eyes dazzled, and she could barely walk.
Although she had seen drawings from netizens online before,
Seeing drawings was completely different from experiencing it firsthand!
The feeling was entirely different!
Seeing this, Tai Qin smiled and reminded her, "Let's go through the process first, there will be plenty of opportunities to see later."
You Xiaoxiao reluctantly withdrew her gaze, "Okay..."
Then, looking back repeatedly, she followed the two ghost envoys onto a train in front of them.
...
The West Hall was known for its various high-tech and efficiency.
Coupled with Tai Qin and Jiang Lin accompanying her, You Xiaoxiao quickly completed the process.
Then she was arranged to temporarily stay in the Ghost Market.
However, because she had lingered in the human world without permission, she was fined for a period of labor.
As Tai Qin led Jiang Lin and You Xiaoxiao towards the Ghost Market, he said:
"She has a talent for networks, so she's a technical worker, and the work is easy."
"If she does well, she can even reduce her labor time and get extra benefits."
You Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, "Really?! Thank you, sir!"
After entering the West Hall and seeing the world,
You Xiaoxiao's previously low mood gradually improved.
Moreover, she found that this West Hall ghost envoy was actually quite easy to talk to, and she wouldn't be severely punished.
Her personality couldn't help but become a bit livelier.
Everything was set in stone, and there was no use thinking about it anymore.
"By the way, sir, are there any game consoles or anything here? Are they expensive?"
"Can we watch movies?"
Tai Qin was in a good mood and answered them one by one.
"Yes. The prices are quite reasonable, and you can afford them if you work hard."
"Wow! That's great!"
You Xiaoxiao was so happy she almost jumped.
Jiang Lin listened to their conversation and asked after some thought:
"Can you connect to the internet here yet?"
Tai Qin shook his head, "We're still researching it."
"The unsolved mysteries of the underworld, how can they be so easily solved?"
Jiang Lin: "I've also become interested in this recently. Are your materials public?"
"Are there any channels to obtain them?"
He asked directly without beating around the bush.
He had also researched the human internet during his recent vacation, but still couldn't find any clues.
Tai Qin looked at him in surprise, "You're quite straightforward."
"The West Hall does have a lot of public information. If anyone can solve this unsolved mystery, there will be rewards."
"But, this is for residents of the West Hall. As for you..."
Jiang Lin: ?
Tai Qin smiled, "As a friend of the West Hall, you can naturally share it. However, more core information is held by those big shots."
"Ordinary ghosts can't see it, let alone you."
Jiang Lin nodded, "Then I'll just look at the public information."
Tai Qin pointed him in a direction, "You can go to the task center and make a copy to take with you. You'll have to pay for the copying yourself."
"Okay."
As they spoke, the three ghosts arrived at the Ghost Market.
The Ghost Market was not just a series of commercial streets.
It also included residential areas, work areas, leisure areas, and so on.
It was more like a small society.
It was where ordinary ghosts lived their daily lives.
As soon as they entered the Ghost Market,
You Xiaoxiao's eyes were dazzled.
The drawings she had seen online seemed to have come to life, appearing before her eyes.
Long trains moved up and down in the air.
Through the windows, one could vaguely see many ghostly figures inside.
On the streets.
The buildings were of varying heights and arranged in a staggered manner.
Some ghosts rode motorcycles or other shaped ghost artifacts, leaping from a tall building.
Sometimes flying, sometimes falling.
Every time those ghost artifacts passed by buildings, the surfaces of those houses would light up grid by grid like illuminated grid lights.
Forming a unique colored path.
The roar of the motorcycles, and the lively sounds of laughter and hawking on the streets.
Made the entire street exceptionally bustling.
However, before You Xiaoxiao could look more,
She was led by Tai Qin around a corner into another zone.
