Chapter 9: The Ancient Well Rebirth Point, at that moment, I was in a very good state

Yu Zhengdu was completely stirred. During this period, he had read many popular science books about the underworld. Various books contained numerous descriptions of the Six Realms of Reincarnation, but the specifics of how one is reborn varied greatly among different sources

Yu Zhengdu, filled with an overwhelming imagination, followed Zhen Yi through a small door, and was immediately taken aback.

Hou Guangzong watched as his classmates continuously @ him to come out and testify, along with Zhang Qingqing's meaningful "Hehe," which nearly drove him to delete his moments.

I did not expect that so soon, he would have the opportunity to become a living human being who has witnessed the true face of the cycle of reincarnation.

Classmate B: [Surprised .jpg]

Hou Guangzong felt even more pleased, to the extent that the irritation brought about by Yu Zhengdu's appearance dissipated. He followed behind Zhou Ke, replying to messages while preparing to get into the car, when suddenly the group chat began to flood with messages.

Zhang Qingqing: Guess what I just saw!

The merchant paused in silence before responding, "When we go in, generally there is no need to buy a ticket"

When Yu Zhengdu arrived, one of the display screens was stuck on the number "1198" and did not change for a long time. After a while, an announcement was made in a warm and sweet female voice: "Please, customer number 1198, proceed to Channel 4 for reincarnation"

* * *

At that moment, a sudden urgent shout came from behind him: "Make way, make way, I am in a hurry to be reborn"

Wei Xiao was completely unaware of the truth behind this health management company, which appeared dubious from any perspective. However, having witnessed the capabilities of Yu Zhengdu and Shang Que, he not only unhesitatingly purchased the "Health Magnet" but also attempted to establish a long-term partnership with the company. Clearly, a mere stone could not alleviate his concerns about his daughter's condition.

Zhen Yi pondered for a moment and said, "In terms of functionality, it is indeed quite similar to the reincarnation platform"

Please have customer 1198 proceed to the fourth channel for reincarnation

Shortly after the two entered the meeting hall, a man dressed in a vest floated out from a room and hurried over to greet them

Yu Zhengdu glanced at his boss with the corner of his eye. He did not have as many issues as his boss. He straightforwardly took the check and, upon seeing the five zeros following the number, felt a surge of excitement in his heart. At the very least, he should not have to worry about his salary for the duration of the contract. However, after a moment of excitement, he appeared somewhat hesitant and conflicted.

Classmate A: Is that true or not?

In the photo sent by Zhang Qingqing, there is a striking image of Yu Zhengdu and a middle-aged man. The middle-aged man exudes the aura of a successful individual, respectfully shaking hands with Yu Zhengdu.

Classmate B: "@ @ How is it that every student in our class is more impressive than the last? Is this really your big boss?"

Zhu Yan: [Hua Sheng, I have discovered a blind spot]

Shang Que crossed her legs and, with just a sidelong glance at Yu Zhengdu, raised her chin in a particularly boss-like manner and said: "Collect the payment"

After Yu Zhengdu left Shuangjiao Technology, he did not remain idle. He and Shang Que still had not resolved the matter related to their fieldwork. While the class group was fervently discussing him, he was busy with his boss, carrying a group of escaped spirits to the reincarnation point at the ancient well in Floating City.

Hou Guangzong : ... ...

According to the wise, Wei Mo's issue stems from congenital deficiencies combined with a light destiny, making him susceptible to clashes with certain malevolent entities. His condition of soul loss is relatively mild, but there is concern that one day he may provoke truly troublesome spirits, which could endanger his life.

According to Yu Zhengdu's imagination, the cycle of life and death that determines the fate of all things in the world must be grand and magnificent, radiating brilliance and accompanied by unseen phenomena. At the very least, it should resemble the portrayal in television dramas, where a vast entrance opens in the void, seemingly capable of devouring all spirits and phantoms.

Zhu Yan: Don't keep me in suspense, just tell me quickly

Due to this sudden inspiration, this ancient well has become a local legend, and even the subsequent regional divisions are named after the Ancient Well District

It is said that the hall was initially planned to have eighty-eight rooms, but due to a slight oversight in the design, when the construction was completed and a count was made, it was discovered that there were only eighty-seven rooms in total. The merchants from the three provinces were greatly enraged by this. Fortunately, a remarkable craftsman among them proposed an idea. Originally, a well had been dug for the hall, but due to geographical issues, it yielded no water, and there were plans to fill it in. The craftsman suggested making slight modifications to the well, transforming it into the eighty-eighth room. Fortunately, a remarkable craftsman among them proposed an idea.

The San Shang Merchants Association was originally an alliance formed by merchants from three different provinces who conducted business in this city. The three groups jointly invested to establish a spacious guild hall. Over time, as circumstances changed, the alliance disbanded; however, this guild hall was preserved due to its unique architecture and remains a local attraction to this day

Classmate A: Is that true? Didn't you say before that it was very difficult to meet your boss at www.hetushu.com?

Zhang Qingqing: [Highlighting the key point, this is our big boss. I happened to see him escorting Zhengdu out and also heard him say something like, "Money is not an issue. I will visit your esteemed company again another day. If possible, I hope we can establish a long-term partnership." ]

The direction the chair faces is towards an ancient well, above which hovers a massive electronic display screen. In front of the screen, several lines of people are queued, with different numbers corresponding to each line displayed on the screen. Each group of numbers continuously fluctuates, and whenever a number changes, a ghost bids farewell to the surroundings before stepping into the ancient well

The San Merchant Association Hall is not a popular tourist attraction, and since it is not a holiday, the entire hall has very few visitors. However, the area where the ancient well is located presents a completely different and astonishing scene in Yu Zhengdu's eyes

Zhang Qingqing: [Photo .jpg]

Classmate B: Without a picture, there is no truth; with a picture, you are the best

Shang Que looked at him and recalled what he had said in the stairwell, his eyes drooping slightly as he said to Wei Xiao: "We do not charge for children's matters, it is not necessary to be so excessive."

Wei Xiao is a typical engineering student who initially did not consider any unscientific directions. Later, it was his child's grandmother who became more astute and sought guidance from an expert, which led Wei Xiao and his wife to realize that their daughter's issues were likely not just ordinary health problems.

When Wei Xiao was young, he was busy with his career, and it was not until he was quite old that he had a daughter. Both he and his wife cherished this precious jewel immensely, but unfortunately, their beloved daughter was frail and sickly from a young age, and despite consulting numerous renowned doctors, her condition did not improve. If it were just physical weakness, it would have been manageable, but as their daughter gradually grew up and developed her own consciousness, he began to notice that she would occasionally have episodes of distraction and daze, sometimes lasting several days, and even after seeing doctors, no cause could be determined.

The chairs were filled with ghosts, and those without seats were crowded around, standing closely together. The entire scene was bustling and extremely crowded

What stunned him was the scene in the open space

Yu Zhengdu, pained by the company's poverty, said: "He is at full price"

He and Shang Que stood at the door, looking at each other. Yu Zhengdu felt somewhat rueful: "Boss, our company is so poor, why did we choose an office location that requires a ticket to enter"

After the third broadcast, it seemed that no one passed through the channel, and the number and book code continued to fluctuate. A female voice continued to announce: "Please, customer number 1199, proceed to channel four for reincarnation"

Yu Zheng arrived at the entrance of the San Shang Association Hall, only to discover that admission required a ticket.

The ghost, holding a large bundle of gold ingots and candles, exclaimed "Wow" and sat down on the ground, crying: "I don't want this, my time was very good..."

As a city with a long history, Fucheng has always been an economic hub, yet the old town is not without its famous historical sites. One such site is the former location of the San Shang Chamber of Commerce, situated in the central area of the Gujing District.

Yu Zhengdu looked at his boss with some surprise, not expecting that the underworld capitalist would be so enlightened

Outside the small door lies an open space, and the famous ancient well is situated at the corner of this open area

Zhang Qingqing: To be honest, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it either. But it just so happened that I happened to (actually, it was intentional) pass by the boss's office door and witnessed this scene...

Classmate A: Yes, just now Guangzong posted a group photo with your executives on Moments

Around the ancient well, there are ghosts in uniforms maintaining order

"What is needed is necessary." Wei's attitude was very firm. After a moment of hesitation, he finally revealed his true intention, "Actually, there is one more thing I would like to ask both of you..."

The little vest is named Zhen Yi, and he is the person in charge of this reincarnation point in Gujing. Yu Zhengdu then realized that the company has employees stationed at various reincarnation points, indicating that the company's scale is somewhat larger than he had imagined

When Hou Guangzong and Zhou Ke left the Shuangjiao Building, he finally released the pent-up frustration that had been building in his chest all morning. Unable to hide his inner satisfaction, he took out his phone and posted a message on his social media.

Zhu Yan: [Wait a moment! Top-notch tech expert!]

As Yu Zhengdu thought about the imminent encounter with the legendary Wheel of Reincarnation, he couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement and, unable to restrain himself, asked Zhen Yi: "What is the reincarnation point like? Is it as described in the books, with a reincarnation platform and so on?"

It's quite similar to the reincarnation platform

As soon as Zhen Yi saw a group of fleeing ghosts following the two of them, he felt a sense of relief and quickly led Shang Que and Yu Zheng towards the direction of the ancient well

Zhang Qingqing: The senior at the company told me that the big boss is deeply passionate about technology and rarely meets with clients personally now, unless they are top-notch technical experts

Of course, there are still quite a few people in the book group @ Yu Zhengdu to claim the photos, but Yu Zhengdu hasn't looked at his phone at all, so it is naturally impossible for him to reply to the messages

Zhang Qingqing: Not only that, Guangzong was trapped in the elevator, and it was only with the help of Zhandu that he was able to get out, haha

Indeed, great importance is placed on temperament

Zhang Qingqing: "Really, Guangzong came to our company today and I saw him, @Hou Guangzong, don't you think so"

Zhen Yi reached out and grabbed the ghost by the collar, saying: "You have missed your turn; you will be delayed by three turns before being reincarnated"

During this period, he has gained some understanding of the operational models of various companies. As a new era of the underworld, Luo Feng is unlike the previous realm of the dead, which possessed a vast underground world. Now, it can only conduct affairs in the mortal realm, and even the headquarters of Luo Feng has to make do with a small office in the technology park. Consequently, the reincarnation process has been simplified as much as possible. Currently, Luo Feng has opened reincarnation channels in major cities across the country, striving to achieve localization and simplification of ghost reincarnation.

Wei Xiao sought assistance from Yu Zhengdu and Shang Que regarding his daughter Wei Mo. Seizing the opportunity, Yu Zhengdu sold him a piece of the company's product, the "Health Magnet," which was essentially an ordinary pebble, just like the one he had previously given to Li Tiantian. However, it bore the official seal of Luo Feng's company. According to Shang Que, this seal served as a certification mark from the underworld, and with this stone certified by the underworld, ordinary spirits and demons would naturally not dare to approach Wei Mo.

He calmly took out his student ID and handed it to the ticket seller: "Student ticket, thank you"

Yu Zhengdu rolled his eyes at Zhen Yi

What happened today left Wei Xiao in a cold sweat. Although he was somewhat aware of his daughter's condition, the most severe situation Wei Mo had previously experienced was merely a few days of continuous "losing her soul." This was the first time he encountered such a vivid ghostly incident. Of course, Shang Que's unrestrained manner of dealing with ghosts also left an indelible impression on him.

In addition to its significant architectural features of historical value, the most distinctive aspect of the San Shang Hui Guan is undoubtedly the well located within the premises

I feel ashamed to say that although Yu Zhengdu has studied in Floating City for four years, he has never visited the San Shang Guild Hall before. I never expected that his first visit would be due to such a matter

Yu Zhengdu : = =

The entire open space resembled a certificate issuance hall, with rows of chairs on display. Upon closer inspection, one could discern that these chairs were slightly different from those in the living world, appearing to be of a paper-crafted style

Please have customer 1198 proceed to Channel 4 to submit the book and the form

Wei Xiaoshu let out a sigh of relief. He didn't even think much about it, took out his checkbook, signed a string of zeros, and handed it to Mr. Shang: "Mr. Shang, this is today's gratitude fee"

Hou Guangzong: Being sent to a well-established factory like Niu Factory for the first discussion on collaboration, and interfacing with their Project Manager, I was extremely nervous. Fortunately, with the guidance of Director Cho, I was able to successfully complete the task and meet expectations

The ticket seller looked at the two handsome young men with a beaming smile and enthusiastically asked the merchant, "Where is this gentleman's student ID?"

Zhang Qingqing mentioned in the group that it is true he discussed a collaboration with Wei Xiao, although the content of the collaboration is quite different from what everyone has imagined

The incident of him being trapped in the elevator for over an hour did not spread, but once this post was shared, it immediately garnered numerous likes, and the comments were filled with praise. Everyone envied him for having such practical experience during his internship, especially being able to directly interact with the management of a large company, which is simply unattainable for many students who are still running errands and doing menial tasks.

Zhang Qingqing: We have discussed a collaboration with Zhengdu, and our CEO personally received them

The Ancient Well of Floating City serves as the primary reincarnation passage for Floating City and its surrounding areas

At first, Wei Xiao was somewhat skeptical, but it was his grandmother who insisted on seeking out a master to obtain some talismans for warding off evil and ensuring safety. Subsequently, Wei Mo's symptoms indeed improved significantly, and the loss of soul syndrome no longer occurred, which compelled him to believe in the master's claims. However, he became even more concerned, as the master had clearly stated that Wei Mo had an inherent issue with his fate. While the master could help alleviate disasters and avert misfortunes, he could not fundamentally resolve the problem. Given the master's advanced age, it was unlikely that he could protect Wei Mo for a lifetime. Yet, he remained increasingly worried, as the master had explicitly mentioned that Wei Mo's issue stemmed from his inherent fate, and although he could assist in mitigating calamities, he could not address the root cause of the problem, and considering the master's age, it was improbable that he could safeguard Wei Mo indefinitely.

Yu Zhengdu: "... ..." Almost forgot again, this company has only him.

He increasingly politely led Yu Zhengdu and Shang Que back to the reception room, where the bright light slightly alleviated the fear and oppression in his heart

Classmate B: [Blind student, I also experienced a moment of surprise!]

Suddenly, he felt a chill run through him as a ghost passed directly through his body, rushing towards the ancient well, shouting, "Wait a moment, I am number 1198. I just went to collect some offerings from home. I didn't mean to be late—"

The current reincarnation point of the Floating City Ancient Well is set in the eighty-eighth room of the San Merchant Association—inside the ancient well
