Jiang Yaoqing considers himself a bit clever, and he hopes he has absolute control.
The main problem this time was that he couldn't worry about Susie and Sophia.
On the contrary, while restricting them, it also put shackles on themselves.
In addition, he was possessed by a spirit and led people to death, which brought a lot of unnecessary trouble to today's time stop.
The ferry boat docks.
The guide is dead, and now there is no one to talk to the boatman, so this important task falls on him.
"Xiaolu, you go down first."
Jiang Yaoqing nodded to Lu Xingye, turned around and pulled up the corpse exorcist who was lying on the ground.
"Okay brother."
Lu Xingye nodded and got Sophia and Susie off the boat first, then pulled the corpse remover and took the corpses off the boat one by one.
"Uncle Jiang, thank you for your hard work." Jiang Yaoqing stood up and stood beside Uncle Jiang, "If it weren't for you, we might not be able to come back."
"I didn't prepare anything like paper money in advance. I'm really sorry."
"I don't know if you have any unfulfilled wishes. If it can be achieved, I will not hesitate to do it."
Uncle Jiang touched the small flowers on his clothes: "My daughter embroidered this for me."
"What I miss most these years is my eldest daughter, Jiang Que."
Uncle Jiang's figure was a little erratic, as if he was about to dissipate.
"If possible, I hope she can be buried well and her body buried in good condition."
"In this way, I, an immortal, can recognize her at a glance from below."
"Okay Uncle Jiang."
Jiang Yao agreed and smiled at the old man.
"You have a good trip."
Jiang Yaoqing got off the boat and bowed slightly to Uncle Jiang.
The boatman sang loudly: "The souls are transported but not the people. The souls of the dead have their own home. There is no way back on the other side -"
The boatman's figure disappeared into the thick fog in the distance, blending into the fog.

"it's over."
Jiang Yaoqing said softly.
Looking back at Lu Xingye and others behind him, his eyes fell on the village stone monument not far away.
"My amulet..."
Susie was startled by the heat in her pocket and quickly took off her coat, only to see that his amulet was only a puddle of ashes.
Seeing this, Sophia quickly took out her amulet. She felt her body warm, and the next moment the amulet disappeared out of thin air.
There was no big expression on Lu Xingye's face. He took out his amulet and watched it slowly burn to ashes.
Not long after, Jiang Yaoqing felt her body gradually getting warmer.
This should be the return of the soul.
The exterminator counted the corpses behind him, and the stone in his heart fell to the ground.
By sending the corpse back to Changyuan Village, he had completed his first corpse removal mission, and he could collect the remaining money when he returned.
"It will get dark soon, let's go back quickly."
The only pity is that the person he led died on the other side...
Before Jiang Yaoqing's regret could spread, a familiar voice came from behind her: "Family, I'm still here, don't leave in a hurry!"
It is a guide.
Susie was startled, and held Sophia's arm nervously, fighting with trembling teeth.
The dead are resurrected...
Jiang Yaoqing turned around unexpectedly, and behind her, the leader came with a smile.
"Captain Jiang, why did you forget me? Didn't you tell me you were going to do that news for me?"
Jiang Yao showed no emotion on her face and looked back calmly: "Of course I haven't forgotten. Let's go back together."
The corpse driver swallowed his saliva. Now he just wanted to complete the task and then run away.
Susie wanted to say something, but under Sophia's eyes, she finally didn't speak.
"Do you remember what just happened?"
Jiang Yaoqing asked.
"Remember, I remember that we got on the boat together, then arrived at the other side, walked for a while, and then... hiss, I can't remember clearly, but aren't we back now?"
Jiang Yao nodded with understanding: "I'm back."
If a leader loses a soul, the days ahead may not be easy.
Walking inside, crossing the stone monument, we came to the boundary of Changyuan Village.
"Yao Qing!"
From afar, Jiang Yaoqing saw Jiang Yubai leaning to the side.
Behind him, there were Linchi Liu and others who were sitting together and chatting.
Finally home.
"How's the mission going?"
"Half done, the reward is half a corpse."
Jiang Yaoqing answered truthfully.
The corpse driver was led to where he should go, while Jiang Yaoqing leaned against a dead tree on the side with some exhaustion.
"We are only halfway done." Jiang Yubai scratched his head, "When you went there, the corpse exorcist probably hadn't arrived yet."
Jiang Yaoqing nodded.
"We had an accident along the way and almost went to the wrong place. When we were going back, we encountered a whirlpool. Fortunately, Bai Shiyuan's man-of-war jellyfish was there, otherwise we might have been left in the Huangquan River."
Jiang Yubai said with lingering fear: "The role of captain is really difficult. I still like to be your attacker."
Jiang Yaoqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Just as she was turning her eyes, Jiang Yubai's eyes fell on the earrings beside Jiang Yaoqing's ears.
Before he had time to ask, Lu Xingye sent the corpse exorcist away and returned.
"Brother, long time no see."
Jiang Yubai stretched out his fist and touched Lu Xingye: "Good performance, we successfully brought our captain out."
Lu Xingye felt that he actually didn't contribute much. If it weren't for Jiang Yaoqing, several people might be trapped inside and wouldn't be able to get out.
Linchi Liu stood up and moved towards Jiang Yaoqing without leaving a trace: "The first batch of water has arrived in the village, let's go and take a look."
"Song Tan is at the scene now. He asked me to tell you."
"Also," Jiang Yubai said, "Tonight, the first sacrifice of Wu Gu's burial begins."
"We need to find opportunities to sneak in and participate."
"knew."
Jiang Yaoqing nodded: "Let's go to the water transfer site first."
[Current injured members: Bai Shiyuan (recovering very slowly), Linchi Liu (recovering very slowly), Susie (recovering), Sophia (recovering soon)]
The system's announcement sounded in their ears, and Jiang Yaoqing and Jiang Yubai looked at each other.

"Reporter Jiang, you are finally here. Our ribbon-cutting ceremony is waiting for you!"
The village chief walked up to Jiang Yaoqing, unable to hide the wrinkles on his face.
"Thank you for your long wait. I will definitely write this piece of news well and try to make the headlines."
Jiang Yaoqing showed a friendly smile and fiddled with the camera in her hand.
Hearing this, everyone present smiled with satisfaction.
Jiang Yubai's eyes wandered around and stopped on the woman in a suit in the crowd.
Gently tugging on Lu Xingye's sleeves, Jiang Yubai gave a slight gesture with his eyes.
Lu Xingye understood instantly and turned his eyes to look sideways.
The woman has long hair, her feet are as high as the sky, and her eyes are full of shrewdness.
She is not from Changyuan Village.
It seems like someone sent from Qinghe Town.
"The equipment is limited, so we will take a few photos first and then record a video."
Jiang Yaoqing said on the side: "Make a good-looking cover for our headline."
He had never been a reporter before, so he just opened his mouth and made the locals stunned.
After setting up the camera, Jiang Yaoqing took two steps back: "Stand closer. I'll shout three-two-one and everyone will shout eggplant together."
"Three, two, one..."
"eggplant!"
Click.
