A First-Rank Ghost Catcher

Xie Bi'an's diary: Today, I was once again reported by clients saying, "My people can't live without me," "This country needs me," and "You blind fools, why haven't you sent me back yet?" The souls of kings and nobles are born arrogant, and few are willing to cooperate and obediently be reincarnated. I recommend making the underworld officials' uniforms more interesting and apprehending clients according to their tastes. Specific measures include... Housing prices within the fifth ring of Dushuo Mountain are sky-high, and A Tu is still wailing to be fed (A Tu: ???). For the sake of our commissions, let's keep up the good work tomorrow and set a new record for capturing souls. A good employee should have the professional habit of taking notes, recording and organizing work insights, and reviewing them to learn step by step. After finishing his notes, Xie Bi'an fell fast asleep. Before the peach blossom tree, the Netherworld Lord could only clutch his heart, lie awake, and silently ask the heavens: The most beautiful woman in the Immortal Realm, once famed for her grace... how did she reincarnate as such a fool? No matter how noble you were in life, after death you must enter the Netherworld and cross the Three Paths River. It doesn't matter if you once commanded a million troops or held power over the court. Once your breath stops, on go the shackles, and off you are dragged. Note: 1. A ghost officer's career advancement story, set in the mythological underworld. Pairing: Shentu. This is an original interpretation of Shentu! Original! He's not fat! And he doesn't have side-swept bangs! = = 2. Includes Sui and Tang dynasty storylines. 3. Includes Primordial Era storylines. 4. Includes modern-day storylines. 5. A little melodrama, deliciously angsty. If you think it's out of character... sob. 6. I'm trying to update daily. Bookmarks and comments keep me going. Full of joy and sweet-and-sour angst. Bookmark this story, and feel free to follow along =w= After discussing it with my editor, the story will go VIP on August 24, with three chapters released that day. Stay tuned! Chapters 44-55 will be behind the paywall retroactively. If you've already read them, please don't buy them.
