Chapter 74: Can’t Die (Part 1)

In front of the live camera, Host Liu said: “Before the second help-seeker comes on stage, let’s watch a VCR first.”

After he finished speaking, the staff behind the program inserted a video that had been shot and prepared in advance.

The video screen slowly lit up. Before the help-seeker appeared on the scene, the voice of the interviewer belonging to the “Spiritual Affairs” program group came out:

‘Miss Ren, you can’t have such a negative mentality. There are still many beautiful things and people in life waiting to meet you. We can’t be trapped by the sufferings of the past…’

Before the interviewer finished speaking, the help-seeker sighed and said:

‘Miss, thank you for enlightening me, but I have heard these words more than a hundred times. My friends around me also said the same thing to me. I also know that I have psychological problems and that I have poor endurance… But I have no such pair of eyes that can discover beauty.’

‘So don’t waste your words trying to persuade me. I know everyone is doing it for my good, but it’s not necessary.’

‘I can’t find anyone or anything worthy of my nostalgia, and I can’t feel the meaning of living, but a long period of torture and pain for me. Please let me be free. ’

This wave of extremely decadent remarks left the interviewer at a loss as to what to say and had no choice but to end the interview.

At the same time, a background sound sounded in the video, introducing the help-seeker who was bent on seeking relief:

“The program team just interviewed Miss Ren, the person who asked for help in the second group competition in the 6th episode. The reason why the program team selected her as a guest in this episode from hundreds of letters asking for help was because of the unique content in the letter.”

“She is different from the previous help-seeker, or even from all the people who have sent letters for help. She bluntly said that she is not afraid of ghosts, or even death.”

“Miss Ren is here to seek death!”

At this point in the video, a series of question marks went out in the live broadcast room:

[Huh? Did I hear it right? This request for help is really…unheard of.]

[From what I heard in the interview just now, the girl must have suffered from severe depression or mental illness. She felt like she was hopeless. If she was a really serious patient, she would indeed tend to commit suicide.]

[I can understand her thinking, but why come to “Spiritual Affairs”? Isn’t this a metaphysics show? Does she want to find contestants to help her die painlessly? (I’m just guessing)]

The program staff in the video also had the same doubts as the audience in the live broadcast room.

After they raised their questions tactfully, Miss Ren’s tone became irritated and helpless:

‘Do you think it’s easy to die? Just find a place and commit suicide quietly. I think so too myself and have tried it many times, but it doesn’t work!’

‘I can’t die. ’

‘Every time I’m fully prepared, there will always be some accidents or things that are difficult to explain with science. I feel like I’ve run into something evil, and that thing is meddling in my own business and blocking me.’

The video ends here.

[Huh? I was watching a metaphysics and supernatural variety show at home. This video, which was quite suspenseful at first, made me laugh. The tone of the help-seeker asking for help was impatient and aggrieved. Hahahaha, she was furious.]

[This is a development that I never expected. A living person wants to commit suicide, but a dead ghost is blocking it like crazy. Is this okay?]

[Wow, another good ghost!]

[……]

After finishing the video playback, Host Liu looked at the camera and said:

“What kind of strange thing happened to Miss Ren? Is it true that she was hindered by something when she committed suicide several times without success? Now let’s invite our second help-seeker today.”

After he finished speaking, the live broadcast camera shifted. A girl wearing a black lace shirt and an irregular, spliced skirt approached the center of the venue. It was no other than Miss Ren.

Judging from her appearance, she was quite tall, over 1.7 meters tall, with a slight hunchback and a thin figure. Her skin was very pale, she had several ear pierces, and there were faint dark circles under her eyes.

After coming on stage, she nodded to Host Liu and said, “Hello, Host.”

Soon, the first contestant, No. #10 Xi Haihong, appeared on the stage.

After she came on the stage, her eyes were attracted to the girl in the center of the field. After looking at it several times, she frowned and said seriously:

“Are you the one who asked for help in this case? Your situation is quite serious. It’s time to find someone to take a look at it.”

“You have… a male ghost, two female ghosts, and a nest of animal spirits that should have been run over by a car or killed by abuse. You can barely tell that they are a few wild cats, all crowded together in your body. They felt like ‘home’ in the body!

“Girl, your body can run a ghost hotel, so we need to solve this problem as soon as possible. “

Xi Haihong looked puzzled: “Have you never noticed anything wrong or had any strange dreams before? With so many ghosts living in your body, your anger has been drained out, and your body is quite weak, right? Why are you just coming here to see someone now?”

“If you need me to exorcise these ghosts for you, just go to me backstage after the show. I can send away ordinary ghosts.”

Neither the audience nor the host expected that the first contestant would bring such exciting news as soon as he came up. Host Liu couldn’t help but look at the skinny girl next to him. The look in his eyes was strange.

It was also the first time that Miss Ren knew that there was not only one ghost in her body but also many!

She looked surprised for a moment and then became indifferent.

That’s all, she doesn’t want to live anyway.

If these ghosts could speed up her death, she didn’t want to drive them away. But thinking about her own experience and appeal, Miss Ren thought about it and asked seriously:

“Master, is there a harmless ghost in my body? Can you just get it out?”

Xi Haihong: “???”

Seeing her confused expression, Host Liu on the side explained Miss Ren’s request. Xi Haihong was shocked and speechless. After a while, she said with a complicated look on her face:

“You’re a girl with very special requirements. No wonder there are so many ghosts squeezed into your body.”

“Do you know how many lonely ghosts want to come back from the dead and take over your body? They will also affect your mood and consciousness while they are in your body.”

“I advise you to drive them out and think about it carefully. People who gave up their lives casually before they die will go to hell and be punished.”

So to say, in the past hundred years, people in the human world have become more open-minded. More and more people with mental illness choose to end their own lives, and the number has increased dramatically.

The underworld also had to keep up with the development of the times and abandoned the punishment of souls who committed suicide.

A living person has three fires, and at the same time, there is a spiritual container that allows the soul and body to fit together.
