Corpse Recovery Diver-Chapter 807 - 145:

"Now that I'm dead, well, it's just how it is. Although it's not as if death extinguishes the light of life completely, when you're dead, you're dead. There's nothing left to be concerned about."

"Godfather, that's not right. If someone shows you kindness, you should repay it. Even though I'm not married yet, I've got someone I like. In the future, when I have kids, and they have kids, while cooling off on summer nights, I'll tell them ghost stories, naturally including your experiences, godfather."

"Hahahaha." The great eunuch was amused again, "Alright, since you've called me godfather, and it's rare to find a godson with guts, I'll have to give you a gift when you get married."

Tan Wenbin immediately rubbed his hands and leaned forward, "Well now, do you have something hidden up your sleeve?"

"Of course." The great eunuch cast a glance at Tan Wenbin, "When they were buried, they were buried in a mass grave, some maidservants were even left to starve to death there. But I'm different, I was buried with a coffin. When you dig up my remains, remember to split the interlayer of the coffin, there's some gold, silver, and jewels inside."

"I dare not refuse a gift from an elder. After I dig out those treasures, I'll first use them to build you a tomb. The rest, I'll donate ninety percent to the village to build bridges and roads. The remaining ten percent will be considered as your wedding gift to me."

"After your memorial tablet is made, I'll take my betrothed to pay respects to you first."

The great eunuch hesitated, "Leaving only ten percent, isn't that too little? Even though I've stored some, it's not a lot. The burial came suddenly, and those estates and businesses couldn't be sold off in time.

Your father, even though he's a bailiff, is just in Moling. I suppose his family background isn't much, what kind of man is your father?"

"Upright and honest."

"Well, that's it, nothing but a poor man."

"It's not that bad."

"What kind of work will you take up in the future?"

"Water conservancy and irrigation projects."

"What, you have to serve labor on the riverbank?"

"Uh..." Tan Wenbin scratched his head, "It's in the interest of the country and the people."

"You've got ambition, you're a good child."

"Godfather, you're flattering me."

Most of the maids and eunuchs here, including the Yuan soldiers and knights that appeared earlier, actually don't know they're dead. They still think they're alive and doing the work they did in life.

Like the great eunuch, someone of his rank, knowing he's dead, is already at the "top" among these sacrificial burials.

But he is actually just like those who must not be seen directly, possessing basic thinking, but with limits. You tell them how many years have passed outside, what era it is now, they can't comprehend it.

After all, they are avengers, with self-imposed limitations.

This is why Jie Shun'an could deceive the ancestors of the three families and gather such abundant and majestic spell power.

Their self-awareness allowed them to realize clearly that their descendants made mistakes, and they are willing to actively use spells to punish their own descendants.

But their limited thinking can't perceive or comprehend the terrible disaster this vast spell might bring to the human world now, far exceeding the simple task of punishing the three families or exterminating their clans.

Xiong Shan watched from the side, seeing Tan Wenbin chatting so freely with the two ghost eunuchs, finding it all miraculous.

Yin Meng stood by, not feeling strange at all.

Everyone in the team, including Brother Xiao Yuan, acknowledged Zhuangzhuang's abilities.

Sometimes she worries about her role in the team, feeling it's not very significant.

It seems like her major value nowadays still lies in her last name "Yin," because Brother Xiao Yuan is sure to revisit Fengdu Ghost City in the future.

Sigh.

After being treated as an "honored guest" this time, Yin Meng couldn't help but feel some frustration:

Even to this generation of hers, the Yin family still relies on the foundation of their ancestors.

Then, a slight vibration seemed to come.

The great eunuch slowly raised his head, "Oh, a message has arrived."

Before long, a group of maids and eunuchs came walking over.

Mr. Wang got up to drive them away.

After a while, more maids and eunuchs arrived, Mr. Wang couldn't stop them.

The great eunuch glared at them and gave a heavy cough, "Get lost."

The maids and eunuchs scattered like startled birds and beasts.

After a period of calm, several eunuchs in high-ranking robes approached.

The great eunuch stood up and went forward, "What is it? Have I lost my authority to speak in this General Mansion?"

The senior eunuchs quickly retreated.

Xiong Shan, watching from the side, was taken aback, understanding that he was supposed to start hard work by now.

Yet, the difficult work just passed by like that?

For the blockade commanded by that young man to stand defiant, he only needed to watch from the sidelines?

Another silent period ensued, this time the ground trembled, and it was a group of knights coming.

The great eunuch shouted furiously, "I really want to see, in this General Mansion, who runs the show, what family name calls the shots!"

The knights looked at each other before riding away.

Time passed by the way it always does, minute by minute.

But what needs to come, will still come.

It can't be delayed indefinitely.

Tan Wenbin licked his lips, quietly cursing in his heart: Damn, it looks just as Brother Xiao Yuan said, Jie Shun'an indeed holds some control over this place.

This time, more maids and eunuchs arrived, almost a tidal wave.

Orders stuck here will only attract more people to gather, forming a combined force to push the orders forward.

They are avengers, their core nature is actually to be influenced and manipulated.

The great eunuch's expression became troubled as well, not because of losing face, but because even he felt the pressure build-up.
