Chapter 43: Curtain Call
Meanwhile, Hades Palace.
When Jiang Qi woke up slowly, pain and indescribable fatigue rushed up one after another. The dizzy feeling reminded her of the feeling that she had filmed several nights of scenes in a row and was in the morning when she was low in blood sugar.
All memories of the past poured into her brain at the first time, but this discomfort made her truly realize that she was still alive.
However, besides the memories of the past, she still remembers everything that happened in the past week.
For example, the grandmother, who had not seen for a long time, used her as a tool for turning around and placed a sarcophagus for sacrifices. These painful memories also shattered her last fantasy about her family.
"Give this to you."
Jiang Qi's contemplation was quickly interrupted by a familiar voice. She calmed down before seeing half of the orange handed over by Gu Yun. "Hades said that your physical condition is very weak and you need some energy to be replenished, but it is recommended that you eat it quickly to prevent bitten."
Facts proved that Hades was very efficient. Gu Yun went to the strange beast market and had no time to go back, he received a notice that the notice ceremony had been completed.
Hades took action personally, and the process went very smoothly. However, in theory, Jiang Qi had been dead for more than a week, and her body had shrunk and declined in all aspects. Although Hades stabilized her physical condition, human instinctive reactions such as hunger and pain were inevitable.
"……Thanks."
Facing Gu Yun who was so close to him, Jiang Qi didn't know what to say for a moment.
She recognizes this place.
With its magnificent decoration and grand hall, this place is undoubtedly Hades' palace. Although she was half asleep and half awake later, she could imagine how much energy Gu Yun had spent to save herself.
She put the orange petals into her mouth, and the sweet and full juice made her feel more or less drowsy.
This time, she did not entrust Gu Yun to save herself, and even when she decided to come to the world of the deceased, she did not inform the other party of her decision. Even so, Gu Yun still broke into the world of the deceased alone.
Thinking of this, Jiang Qi couldn't help but feel a little sore in her nose.
The closest person used her as a tool for reincarnation, but in the end she was a friend who met by chance. Even though she thought she had trained a hard-hearted heart in her acting career, she couldn't help but want to cry loudly at this moment.
"Why are you coming to save me?"
After being silent for a long time and trying to calm down the emotions in her heart, Jiang Qi asked. She had long been used to others' purposeful approaching her life. In the industry she was in, there was no such person as Gu Yun.
"What's the reason for this?"
Gu Yun was also stopped by Jiang Qi. After thinking for a while, he replied, "I'll come if I want to."
He felt that he had actually made many changes in the past ten years. At least he had basically figured out the situation before deciding whether to take action. If it were ten years ago, no matter who he was, Gu Yuntou would beat him away.
"By the way, the news of your death has spread. What are you going to do after you go back?"
The reason why he was waiting here was that he had to explain some things to Jiang Qi.
As a popular star, Jiang Qi's death has been widely discussed. There are many different opinions on whether Jiang Qi committed suicide or killed him, and there is a vague trend of becoming one of the biggest unsolved cases of this century. Because of this, everyone now knows that Jiang Qi is dead and the resurrection from the dead is a major event for ordinary citizens to break through the bottom line.
If even this rule is broken, the whole world will be in chaos overnight.
Therefore, Hades made only one request.
He can separate unnecessary energy from Jiang Qi's body, and can also restore her memory and find ways to get Jiang Qi's soul back to his body, but he asks Jiang Qi to keep this secret forever after returning to the world of the living.
Jiang Qi is dead, and this matter cannot be changed. She can only spend the rest of her life in a revamped identity.
Once the balance between life and death is broken, then due to the influence of this incident, it can be foreseen that countless people will flock to find ways to resurrect from the dead, and Jiang Qi will become the coveted target of various institutions. Those with power and power will definitely try their best to dig out this secret from Jiang Qi.
Whenever death is the destination of everyone, it is the end point that power and wealth cannot be changed. As the ruler of the world of the dead, Hades is well aware of the consequences of this rule being broken.
Gu Yun admitted that Hades's negotiation skills were very good, and even he, an expert who was proficient in negotiation, was convinced by the other party.
His ideas are roughly the same as Hades. Humans have no resistance to words such as immortality and resurrection. They will try their best to achieve this.
When the news of Jiang Qi's death spread, she was destined to be unable to return to her original life.
Even if the memory is restored and the soul returns to the body, it cannot change the facts that have happened.
"I understand what you mean."
Jiang Qi nodded to express her understanding. She had already accepted her fate when she was put on the sarcophagus by her grandmother. Now it is equivalent to having an extra chance of choosing out of thin air. "Even if you don't say it, I will do this. After being busy for so long, I can retire at one time."
The money she earned before was enough for her to spend the rest of her life in vain, but...
Jiang Qi did not intend to live as an ordinary person. This trip to the world of the dead made her realize that her mother was still alive and seemed to be trapped in the quagmire of the believers in red. Her body was filled with the blood of the medium and the Jiang clan.
These treasures given to her by God may also be some kind of compensation for her ups and downs in life.
Jiang Qi told Gu Yun about her plan, "I decided to find a place to live in seclusion and study spells."
Her life as an actor is over, but a brand new path is in front of her.
"Since that's the case, let's go back tomorrow."
Gu Yun nodded and said.
Hades does not recommend that Jiang Qi and An Ling stay in the world of the dead for too long. Unlike Gu Yun, they are both ordinary humans. If they stay in such places with excessive yin energy for a long time, they will inevitably suffer from some strange diseases.
"Gu Yun..."
"Um?"
"Thank you."
Apart from thanking, Jiang Qi couldn't think of anything else for a moment.
She couldn't figure out Gu Yun's thoughts. Since she first met this person, she could never guess what the other person was thinking - this is a person who always acts on his personal preferences, and his unparalleled powerful force allows him to always follow his true heart.
"I said no thanks, and I happened to have something else to do when I came here this time."
