The Child Spirit at The Amusement Park 2

Xiao Ma’s answer left Ye Shaoyang speechless . He explained, “Those who died due to illnesses have gone for reincarnation a long time ago; only those who died unjustly will stay in the mortal world . Follow me . I can prove it to you . ” As he spoke, he stood up and walked toward the little girl .

Zhuang Yuning immediately held back his arm and pleaded, “Big Brother Shaoyang, I don’t dare to go . You can explain it from here . ”

“Huh? I thought you were going to play see-saw with her just now? Feeling afraid now?” Ye Shaoyang laughed .

Zhuang Yuning grabbed onto him tighter and said in thick voice, “I didn’t know she was a ghost . Big Brother Shaoyang, stop frightening me, please… . ”

“Don’t worry . No ghost will dare to hurt you as long as I am beside you . I need to get some important information from her . If you are scared, you can just stay here . ”

Zhuang Yuning hesitated for a moment . At last, she stood up, grasping his arm, and decided to follow him .

Xiao Ma felt jealous when he saw Zhuang Yuning holding Ye Shaoyang’s arm; he said, “Umhmm, you can hold my arm too; the spirits do not dare to disturb me . ”

Upon reaching the carousel, Ye Shaoyang spoke to the little girl, “Hi, little sister, could you come to me? I have something to ask you . I will give you reward . ”

“Why does he sound like a pedophile… . ”Xiao Ma muttered to himself .

The little girl showed an annoyed face at once . However, she raised her arm and the carousel instantly halted . The horse that the little girl rode stopped directly in front of Ye Shaoyang .

Xiao Ma wanted to act in front Zhuang Yuning, so he asked the little girl, “Wey, wey, how did you die?”

The little girl’s eyes turned bloodshot, and she glared at Xiao Ma fiercely . Xiao Ma retreated a few steps and cast a begging look toward Ye Shaoyang .

Ye Shaoyang raised his arm and waved in front of the little girl to blow away the Spirit Qi around her . Seeing the little girl returned to normal, Ye Shaoyang turned around and scolded, “Stop asking nonsense questions!”

“Did I? I saw you asking them most of the time . ” Xiao Ma wondered aloud .

“I am a sorcerer . The reason I asked is to solve their grievances, but for you, they will take it as an insult!” Ye Shaoyang paused for a while and continued, “Remember, never ask about the death and grievances of a spirit who died unjustly . You will trigger them!”

Xiao Ma laughed awkwardly; instead of showing off in front of his goddess, he had embarrassed himself .

Ye Shaoyang turned around; he looked at the little girl and scratched his head, “Since he has asked, can you tell me how you died?”

The little girl supported her chin with both hands and extended her neck to almost ninety degrees . Only a thin piece of skin from the nape connected to her neck, leaving the front covered in blood .

Zhuang Yuning shuddered violently and quickly hid behind Ye Shaoyangn and rested her hands on his shoulders .

“Umm… . ” Ye Shaoyang felt awkward with her position .

“My stepfather killed me and modified the crime scene to make it look as though some strangers had killed me . He tried to escape from his sins, so I refused to reincarnate and decided to wait for him to die . At that time, I will confront him in front of the Yama King . I want to see him go to hell with my own eyes!” As she spoke, her eyes turned bloodshot again .

“Such a pitiful girl,” sighed Xiao Ma .

But Ye Shaoyang showed no expression; he asked, “Do you frequently come and play here?”

The little girl returned to her cute, naive look . Her little canine teeth were revealed as she smiled, “Heavenly Master, please don’t scold us . We usually come here twice a week, about an hour for every visit . ”

Ye Shaoyang smiled and said nothing . He took out a a spirit nail, which glowed green in the dark, from his pocket, “Have a look; see if you know the owner of this nail . ”

The little girl sniffed the nail and tilted her head, pondering for a moment before she answered, “Familiar smell . I must have met her before, but I am not sure . Can I show this to my friends?”

Ye Shaoyang nodded in approval, “Sure . I will burn more hell notes for you later . ”

The little girl happily nodded her head as she bounced toward her friends with the spirit nail .

“What a sad life she had… . ” Zhuang Yuning looked at the back of the little girl and sighed .

“But, isn’t she a ghost? Why is she still acting like a kid?”

“A spirit’s character will be fixed at the age he or she dies until he or she drinks the Mengpo’s soup; she hasn’t, so she will continue to behave like a seven year old child . Similar to those kids . That’s the reason they come here to play twice a week . ”

At the same time, a kid dressed in an old-fashioned costume playing with a bamboo-copter, ran past them .

“That kid must have died many years ago,” Zhuang Yuning looked curious and continued, “But why is he acting like a kid even though he has died for many years?”

“A spirit’s character will not change along with their cultivation and spirit’s age,” explained Ye Shaoyang .

Xiao Ma frowned, “I have a doubt . Little Ye, you mentioned that after a person dies, the soul must report to the Netherworld Council and cannot stay in the mortal world . But why can these child spirits stay in the mortal world and play together in the amusement park?”

Ye Shaoyang scanned through the bunch of child spirits who were playing happily now; he sighed, “All of them died unjustly; the people who killed them escaped the law . However, the Netherworld Council has a book to record all kinds of incidents from the mortal world, so that a soul can claim what he or she deserves from the one who has killed them . Even so, sometimes, the spirit in charge in the Netherworld Council would miss some details and need to confront the person concerned in the council .

“However, the person concerned might still be alive . Besides, the King Yama could not simple seize someone’s soul . That’s why these child spirits could not reincarnate . They will need to work for the Netherworld Council temporarily until the person concerned dies . Another reason could be too much hatred like the case of the little girl, she insisted on watching her stepfather being punished in hell before she goes for reincarnation .

“According to the law, any spirits that has not reincarnated can go back to the mortal world on their death day or during their holidays and back to the Underworld before twelve midnight . As for these kids, they do not have resentment Qi, so they have low risk of hurting mortals . The Netherworld Council usually shows mercy to them . After all, they are kids . It is normal for them to enjoy playing in the amusement park . ”

“Ah, I see . I never knew the law of the Netherworld Council is so considerate . ”

“Strictly speaking, the law forbids them from coming to the mortal world, but the spirit in charge usually turns a blind eye to the child spirits . ”

As they chatted, the little girl had gathered all the child spirits and showed them the spirit nail . After all of them sniffed the nail, they had a short discussion before they walked toward Ye Shaoyang .
