The disciple of Yue Lao

Chapter 196 Dozing off during work hours?
[Underworld]

After returning to the underworld, Yan Lan was confused and was punished by the King of Hell again, who asked her to continue helping Meng Po distribute "Meng Po Soup".

The King of Hell actually saw that Yan Lan had forgotten Yue Yang, but he didn't seem to intend to get to the bottom of it. He thought this was a good thing, because in this way, Yan Lan wouldn't always have to run to the mortal world.

After using the magic weapon to check, the King of Hell knew that Yan Lan had drunk the "Love Water" and that it was Xia Yu's doing.

This is good, as it solves a problem in his mind.

Yan Lan didn't know what she had forgotten, so she naturally wouldn't ask. The King of Hell directly ordered that no ghost in the underworld was allowed to mention the person called "Yue Yang".

Yan Lan thought that he was punished just because he had come back from a trip to the mortal world.

As far as she could remember, this was the first time she had been punished.

The difference was that this time she didn't resist and wasn't in a hurry to slip away.

……

On the road to the underworld, Yan Lan walked with a domineering manner, holding the "ghost whip" in his hand, going up the Naihe Bridge, passing the Wangxiang Terrace, and directly arriving at Meng Po's stall.

When the ghosts in the Forgotten River saw Yan Lan's murderous eyes, they knew that the terrible princess had returned, and they dared not say a word.

When seeing Meng Po, Yan Lan was as cold as a piece of ice. Without saying a word to her, she sat down next to the stall and started working.

"Mother Meng."

A little ghost suddenly ran over. Looking at his hurried look, it seemed as if the King of Hell had sent him here.

Meng Po walked towards the little ghost and said, "Tell me slowly."

"The King of Hell asks you to go to the Hall of Yama." the little ghost replied.

"now?"

Meng Po looked back at Yan Lan and explained, "The princess just arrived, and I haven't taught her how to..."

Yan Lan has always been strong-willed, so how could she allow Meng Po to say that she is incompetent?
Before Meng Po could finish her words, she replied directly: "Go ahead! This princess knows what to do."

knowledge?

Meng Po was puzzled: Could it be that she still remembered that she had been punished?
"Thank you for your hard work, Princess. I will be back soon."

After Meng Po left with the little ghost, the Ox-Head and Horse-Faced Demons soon came escorting a group of ghosts.

When they passed the Naihe Bridge, they saw Yan Lan standing alone at the stall, so the Ox-Headed and Horse-Faced Ghosts quickly reminded the ghosts, "Don't talk nonsense when you pass by. The Mengpo Soup is on the table. Take a bowl and drink it. Then move on."

The new ghosts had never seen Meng Po before. When they saw Yan Lan's young and beautiful appearance from afar, they were all amazed.

"Who told me that 'Meng Po is extremely ugly'? What a bunch of liars!"

"Wow! Are you sure she's not a fairy?"

"Hey, will she personally serve me soup later?"

"You're so beautiful, let alone a bowl of Meng Po soup, even if it's poison, I'd drink it willingly."

The bench next to the stall was still there. Yan Lan habitually lay down on it, slightly closed her eyes, and waited until the ghosts came over. She said coldly, "One bowl each, serve yourself."

When the first few saw that Yan Lan looked “not easy to mess with”, they drank the soup obediently and walked forward.

A male ghost behind was courting death and begged Yan Lan to feed him on the spot.

"Beauty, is this soup bitter? I was most afraid of bitter things when I was alive. Can you add some sugar? Otherwise...feed it to me yourself! It won't be too bitter if you feed it to me..."

The other person was talking with a smile on his face, but Yan Lan swung the whip at him without hesitation.

"what!!"

The male ghost was knocked to the ground and rolled on the ground in pain. Seeing Yan Lan whipping him again, he immediately became afraid and picked up a bowl of "Meng Po Soup" and drank it all in one gulp.

After drinking a bowl of soup, the male ghost walked forward with a dull look in his eyes. The ghosts queuing behind him became much more obedient, and all laughed at him for not knowing how to live or die.

The ghosts in the Forgotten River kindly reminded them, and they realized that the beautiful girl was the princess of the underworld, not Meng Po.

Wave after wave of ghosts drank the soup and left. Meng Po had not returned yet, but Yan Lan was already feeling sleepy.

Finally, Yan Lan dozed off silently.

Some "scheming ghosts" noticed that Yan Lan fell asleep, so they pretended to drink the soup and left, but in fact they vomited halfway through the walk.

Seeing this, some ghosts rushed to imitate, and slowly more and more ghosts pretended to drink the soup; some ghosts had the desire but not the courage, and still drank some, but the effect was not very obvious.

Half an hour later, Meng Po finally came back.

"Princess!"

As soon as Meng Po arrived at the Naihe Bridge, she shouted to Yan Lan, and the next second she rushed to the stall and caught the two little ghosts who were pretending to be drinking.

"It's working hours, Princess...how can you sleep?" Meng Po said while forcing the two little ghosts to drink the soup again.

Yan Lan opened his eyes lazily, and when he heard Meng Po's words, he almost whipped the two little ghosts to death.

Oh, forgot, they are dead.

Even though she made a mistake, Yan Lan didn't want to hear Meng Po scold her, so she stood up and said, "I'll go get those who didn't drink the soup."

"Princess!"

Meng Po grabbed Yan Lan who was about to leave, shook her head and said, "Forget it, don't chase him. The King of Hell has ordered that you stay here from now on, and you are not allowed to leave even a step."

"Why?" Yan Lan asked angrily.

Meng Po continued to serve the soup calmly, one bowl after another, with skillful movements and in one go.

"Before, the punishment from the King of Hell was indeed a bit severe."

Meng Po comforted Yan Lan first, and then said: "But, when you dozed off just now, how many ghosts did you let go without drinking the soup? As a punishment, this is already light."

Yan Lan was angry, and she didn't look happy anymore. She would beat anyone who didn't obey her!
Therefore, among the reincarnated children, those who have "whip-like" birthmarks are most likely beaten by Yan Lan.

……

Because of Yan Lan’s negligence, most of the ghosts who did not drink the soup will still remember their past life memories after reincarnation, and those who drank some will remember some.

In the mortal world, some children at the age of four or five remember things from their past lives, and go find their past life families and recognize them.

Some children, after reincarnation, become the daughters of their husbands in the previous life, and will intentionally or unintentionally favor their fathers more.

This incident quickly attracted the attention of the King of Hell. In order to prevent things from getting worse, he decided to send someone...

Uh, send ghosts to the mortal world to solve the problem.

After hearing this, Meng Po took the initiative to ask the King of Hell to send Yan Lan to complete the task.

After all, it was Yan Lan who caused the trouble, so of course she has to clean up the mess herself.

She won't grow up without going through some things.

The King of Hell thought about it for a while. He thought that Yan Lan had already forgotten Yue Yang and would not make trouble in the mortal world, so he agreed to Meng Po's proposal.

Meng Po was worried that Yan Lan would not be able to find those people with memories in the mortal world, so she secretly gave her a tip: "Princess, as far as I know, the ghost woman has a magic weapon that can detect the memories of other worlds in mortals' minds and delete them. You might as well go to the mall to ask her for the magic weapon, and then go to the mortal world to find people. For money, I can..."

"Need not."

Yan Lan dropped these two words, turned around and disappeared, heading towards the ghost woman's "Underworld Mall".
