Chapter 2053
"It seems there are many things in this world we do not know," Yu Qingyun said.
As a doctor, some things could be explained by science, but others, they all knew, science truly could not explain. Sometimes, to comfort others, they would find so-called scientific reasons. For instance, the hospital morgue is usually the quietest place, but sometimes there are sounds. Some say it is just a psychological effect, but Yu Qingyun knew it was real. It was the lingering attachment of the dead to the human world. Only after passing this period could a person truly enter death.
Since Master Yao had said that all things in time and space are strange, what happened in the morgue was actually very normal.
Of course, Zhu Yanyi’s explanation of souls was just a concrete way for them to understand.
"Alright, Senior Brother, get up and walk around. Let’s see how your body feels," Zhu Yanyi said. Although she had used Spirit Spring water, she still wanted to check.
Yu Qingyun stood up, waited a moment, then took a few steps. "I felt a bit weak when I first stood up, but after standing for a while, it was fine. My body feels very comfortable. Junior Sister, you used Spirit Spring water on me, didn't you?"
Zhu Yanyi nodded. "But your soul has just returned to its place. Come, drink a bottle of Meng Po's soup first to strengthen the bond between your soul and body." Zhu Yanyi handed a bottle of Meng Po's soup to Yu Qingyun.
Yu Qingyun assumed this Meng Po's soup was some kind of potion made by Zhu Yanyi. She did not refuse and gulped it down. After drinking, her originally slightly confused mind seemed much clearer. "I feel much more energetic. Junior Sister, what is this potion? It’s so powerful."
"Meng Po's soup. Soup brewed by Meng Po," Zhu Yanyi smiled faintly. "You haven’t even heard of Meng Po's soup?"
"I have heard of it, of course. It’s just that the name is speechless. Isn’t Meng Po's soup the liquid that makes people forget their past life memories?" Yu Qingyun asked.
Zhu Yanyi chuckled lightly. "Just a rumor. Anyway, it is good for your body. Don’t worry about the name."
Zhu Yanyi did not intend to explain much about the topics of underworld officials and gods.
"However, Senior Brother Qingyun, because of this experience, I have good news for you. You can go to the Saint Academy to study for six months," Zhu Yanyi said with a smile.
"Ah, really?" Yu Qingyun’s eyes lit up. "You’re not joking, are you?"
"I would crawl backwards if I lied to you," Zhu Yanyi made a gesture of crawling with her fingers. "Haven’t you noticed that your five senses have become stronger? This is because the fortune after surviving a great disaster has arrived."
"Although I don’t like disasters, since the disaster came and brought fortune, I feel somewhat comforted," Yu Qingyun said with a smile.
Yan Aohan opened a book nearby and said, "The soul of Mingchuan Yangzi has awakened."
Zhu Yanyi went over and looked. Indeed, the Mingchuan Yangzi in the book had awakened. He rubbed his eyes, sat up, looked around, and then saw Yan Aohan and the others. He was slightly stunned. "Who are you? Why am I here?"
"Where else do you think you are? In my Senior Brother’s body?" Zhu Yanyi pointed to Yu Qingyun nearby.
Mingchuan Yangzi’s face changed slightly, then she tried to justify herself. "Actually, I had no choice. I was just borrowing her body. I never intended to harm her."
"Stripping her soul and trapping it in a book. You call that helping? You call that not harming?" Zhu Yanyi sneered. "I am not unfamiliar with the style of your Japanese people, but I have never encountered such a style. Since that is the case, you might as well live well in this book from now on. I wonder how long you can last?"
Yan Aohan added, "A soul without a body will soon disconnect from its original body. Once disconnected, it cannot be resurrected. But since its lifespan is not over, it cannot enter the Underworld for reincarnation either. It can only wander in the human world. If lucky, it returns to the Underworld when its lifespan ends. If unlucky, its soul will scatter. However, everyone has their own fate. We cannot force it."
"Don’t talk nonsense. Don’t scare me. I won’t believe it," Mingchuan Yangzi said, her face changing, but she continued.
Zhu Yanyi shrugged slightly. "I didn’t plan for you to believe it. Anyway, the one who becomes a soul is you, not us. Whether you believe it or not has nothing to do with us."
Zhu Yanyi smiled faintly, not surprised at all by Mingchuan Yangzi’s reaction.
Mingchuan Yangzi looked at Zhu Yanyi, a hint of gloom flashing in her eyes. "Miss, I think there are things we can discuss if we sit down."
As expected of Mingchuan Yangzi. Even though her situation had fallen to this point, she still had the mood to negotiate.
Zhu Yanyi gave Mingchuan Yangzi a thumbs up. "Truly one of the铿锵 roses of the Mingchuan family. Indeed impressive. Your life is in our hands. Life or death is just a flick of our finger. Yet you can remain so calm. Truly impressive."
Zhu Yanyi spoke sincerely. Mingchuan Yangzi looked at Zhu Yanyi. "Miss, as long as you let me go, everything can be discussed."
"I just want to know, why do you think I will let you go? After seeing what you did to my Senior Brother, what we are discussing now is how to settle the score with you and the price you need to pay. Not whether we will let you go," Zhu Yanyi said directly.
Mingchuan Yangzi’s mind raced. "Miss, actually, there is no business in the world that cannot be discussed. As long as the interests are right, as long as you let me go, I can pay you any amount of money."
Zhu Yanyi waved her hand, looking at Mingchuan Yangzi with disdain. "To be honest, I have nothing else but money. Now, money is just a string of numbers to me. You are still talking to me about money. Am I the kind of person who is blinded by money?"
Rich people do not care about small amounts of money. Zhu Yanyi’s explanation clearly told Mingchuan Yangzi that she did not care about money.
Mingchuan Yangzi frowned slightly. "Tell me, what exactly do you want?"
"Why did you set up the Nine-Nine Return Array?" Zhu Yanyi asked.
Since the others were men, it was not appropriate for them to interrogate her face-to-face, so Zhu Yanyi took over the interrogation.
"What Nine-Nine Return Array? I don’t know," Mingchuan Yangzi’s eyes flickered, pretending to know nothing.
