My Wife Is A Ghost Exorciser

" What do you mean by useless and why are you clutching onto that thing?" asked Fu Yu Shen looking at the metal handles with plastic yellow hoops like in the bus and trains. Only then did he take a look at the insides of the elevator carefully, unlike the elevators in the human world this one opened to the far heavens, above him was nothing but a dark sky, as dark as the one outside and the handles hanging over his head reached up to a height where he couldn't even see their end. Slowly, he looked down at his feet and sure enough, he saw a golden glow like fire burning beneath his feet with cracks and explosions and he almost jumped up, " Wh…What is this."

" The boundary between heaven and hell," answered Song Yan as the door closed, but what was surprising was that the pristine clean elevator door didn't just show the reflection of the two of them alone, there was someone else with a blunt bob cut, dressed in an old school uniform, her face pale with her eyes sharply glinting with a light that Fu Yu Shen has never seen in his life before.

" W..Who is that girl behind you," he asked pointing at the reflection of the young girl in the doors of the elevator while whipping his head front and back since he couldn't see her standing next to Song Yan.

" She stays with me that's all you need to know at the moment," said Song Yan before turning her head and looking at his hands. " You better hold on to the handles before something happens, just in case you fall, I am not going to help you."

This time Fu Yu Shen didn't dare to ignore her warning, he instantly raised his hands and clasped the handles with both hands, a good thing that he did, because the second he held them, the elevator dropped. No, it just didn't drop, it free fell —— without any gravitational force or anything attached to it, as if something really strong and powerful was sucking it down in the pit that he could see through the elevator.

The force of the fall was so heavy that Fu Yu Shen felt his skin being sucked along with the elevator, it seemed to be stretching to the bottom and he couldn't even open his mouth to say a single thing much less scream. If not for Song Yan acting as if this was normal, he would have thought that the thing was totally out of control and they were on the verge of being smashed to the ground —— sob, he came here because he was worried that the ghosts will pop up again if he was to leave Song Yan's side but now that he was experiencing these things he realised that the ghosts haunting him weren't that scary, it was his second sister in law!

God, his poor second brother. No wonder he was looking like he can't sleep these days, having such a scary wife was much more scarier than being haunted by a ghost.

The elevator came to a jerking stop and just when Fu Yu Shen thought that the torture was over—— the elevator jerked to the left and then right and then down and then back and then forward. And that was how Fu Yu Shen realised that he could indeed defy gravity as he let out a moanful scream.

" Dear, Dear, are you okay?" As soon as the elevator opened, Fu Yu Shen walked out like he has walked through hell itself and dropped to his knees before dry heaving as if he was going to die here and now. Seeing this the old man behind the reception counter that was black as the darkness itself walked out and looked at him with a concerned expression, " Hmm, you are alive, so why are you here?"

Fu Yu Shen only raised one trembling arm and pointed behind him, the old man followed the direction he was pointing at and kindly smiled when he saw Song Yan walking out. " Dear me, it's been so long, when was the last time I saw you?"

" It has been a long time and I do not want to feel reminiscent of those memories," she pointed at the large oak doors and asked, " Is he in there?"

" Yes," said the old man before turning around and ringing the bell sitting on his counter. "I have announced your arrival, you can go in and while you are meeting him, I will take care of this …" he peered down at the heaving Fu Yu Shen. " Really nice human you have brought with you."

Fu Yu Shen felt like the old man was talking about him in the same manner as a pet dog or cat.

" You can just leave him be," said Song Yan without looking at her sick brother-in-law and strode towards the oak doors. " He can take care of himself."

Then she left without looking back.

Fu Yu Shen stared at her back before turning to the old man and asking, " Is this a place where humans can't come?"

" They cannot," slightly surprised by the question, he looked down at the kneeling Fu Yu Shen on the floor. " If they are brought by someone then it's a different story but before dying, they cannot enter this place."

" So, what is she then?" asked Fu Yu Shen ever since he found out that Song Yan could see ghosts and can walk between the boundary of heaven and hell, he has been meaning to ask her this but for some reason, he couldn't do it. " She didn't come here with anyone yet she was able to come inside as if she has been here, why is that?"

The old man looked down at Fu Yu Shen, he thought the boy was a silly, old fool but maybe there was some sort of hope left for him in there. He smiled and turned his head to look at Song Yan before he answered, " She is the woman who lost it all and then gave all of herself to get back what belonged to her."
