Chapter 37: The Midnight Self-Recommended Pillow Seat

The young man left worriedly.

And I looked at the scorching sun and the increasingly sparse vendors. I thought about it and planned to go shopping again tomorrow morning.

The most important thing is that I carry a lot of money on my back and I am afraid of being stared at when I go shopping like this.

If there is a particularly clever thief, I can cure the ghost, but I may not be able to catch the thief.

Back at the inn, the boss was already diligently carrying a big copper pot and following me upstairs:

"Don't worry, girl, the cleaning lady just left. I'm sure there won't be a trace of dust in your room!"

"This is a pot of hot water given by the store. Please use it slowly."

After all, he was a man. After saying a few words, he put the copper pot on the table and went downstairs again neatly.

As soon as the door was closed, Xiaolian appeared quickly:

"The sour plum soup is really refreshing and sweet!" Her delicate face was full of satisfaction at this moment.

"Right!" I thought the same way: "Fortunately we left the village, otherwise we wouldn't know there are so many delicious foods and drinks in the world!"

"Don't worry, Xiaolian, I will go to the market tomorrow and there will be more delicious food then!"

Xiaolian pursed her lips and smiled sheepishly: "I said I have no money. If there are people like Landlord Zhao again, we will fight."

ha!

As expected of Xiaolian!

How come the ideas are so coherent?

I patted the bag on my chest and said, "I'll put the money in the bag, and you can just stuff it under the bed and look at it."

"I'll just bring some copper coins when I go out tomorrow."

Xiaolian nodded, having tasted the benefits of money. Neither Xiaolian nor I were willing to take it lightly. At this moment, she also told me:

"There must be something going on at this inn. I see that the aunt who came to clean it is very nervous."

"But the boss is quite reliable. The people he hired are very efficient in the work. The house is clean, and even the bathtub has been washed."

"Thirty Wen, it's really worth it!"

At this moment, Xiaolian and I, as country girls, feel very satisfied.

As for ghosts at night?

Is it important to have money?



But one thing to say is that the boss is really stingy. If he wants to take a bath, he has to pay extra for hot and cold water.

In the end, I spent fifty cents that night.

Xiaolian comforted me: "You want to be more generous. Even if you want to buy an upper room for three taels of silver per room, if you want to take a bath and heat hot water, don't you still have to spend money?"

After all, I have been on the road again and again, and I have gone through so many ups and downs before, so just spend money.

Anyway, when I changed into my new pajamas and lay down comfortably under the quilt, I felt the cool breath of Xiaolian in the room, and I felt that this summer was particularly lovely.

The wind blew, the candles went out, and it was late at night.

A gust of wind blew melodiously outside the window, and the faded pink and white lanterns at the entrance of the store were swaying. Unknowingly, one of them was missing.

Then, I saw a fluttering shadow slowly coming in from the long corridor on the second floor of the inn.

There was a "crunch" sound.

The door was inexplicably blown open by the wind.

The shadow was stretched by the moonlight, but it still walked towards the bed step by step...

While I was immersed in a dream, Bai Xuan was teaching me new techniques step by step:

"This is the Five Thunder Seal Technique, which is used to ward off evil spirits and evil spirits. You must practice it tonight!"

The Five Thunder Seal is a rather complicated Taoist formula. I repeated it over and over again and felt like my fingers were getting knotted.

But Bai Xuan was really flirtatious when he was frivolous and wanton, but now when it comes to serious matters, he is also extremely serious. It wasn't until I finally got some practice that he nodded with satisfaction.

Then he raised his eyebrows slightly and suddenly looked at me sourly:

"The little bride is so charming, she can actually lure her to come here in the middle of the night..."

"Sure enough, I can't show my husband in front of others, and now he is invisible and incorporeal. It's very unpleasant."

He said these weird and mean things again.

However, whenever I see the long iron rope on his back, I feel more and more love for him.

Although I didn't understand what he meant at the moment, after thinking about it for a while, I boldly reached out and touched the side of his face:

"What are you talking about? I am your bride now, is it possible that I can still marry someone else?"

"If you say that again, you clearly disrespect me."

Bai Xuan stretched out his hand and covered the cold back of my hand with his hot palm. He looked at me intently and tenderly, with an unprecedented softness, and then he admitted his mistake in a low voice:

"I was wrong, little bride, don't blame me."

"My beloved, when one day my merits are fulfilled and I can escape, I will definitely become a matchmaker and marry you openly and honestly, so that you can truly be my wife."

He has always been very unrestrained and romantic, but now he said such lingering and solemn words. I just felt my cheeks burning red and my whole person seemed to feel uncomfortable.

Bai Xuan, he... he is really... he is really a wonderful person.

No, he is an excellent monster.

He must be an excellent husband.

Thinking about it like this, I just felt like Tianling Gai was on fire. At this moment, I just wanted to leave here quickly.

If nothing else, just ask me to get back into bed and cool down the temperature on my cheeks.

Just as his heart was surging like this, he heard Bai Xuan snort coldly:

"Little bride, if you don't wake up, that shameless male ghost will get into your bed!"

After saying that, he said bitterly: "The wedding ghost next to you didn't touch anyone's life, but he is a fierce ghost who wants to take the path of merit. He is unable to deal with a guy with a little bit of moral integrity..."

"I know, I know, you have to be strong to make iron!" I quickly comforted him, fearing that Bai Xuan would be picky about Xiaolian again - in fact, he was jealous that Xiaolian could be by my side every day.

But at the moment, the shameless male ghost was the most important thing. I closed my eyes, lost my mind, and soon opened my eyes on the bed.

As soon as I opened my eyes, I felt something moved my belt——

Looking closely, I can indeed see a faint silhouette sitting beside the bed in the moonlight!

That’s not true!

I was so angry in the middle of the night - he was indeed such a shameless man! He actually wanted to take advantage of me at night!

Without saying anything, I took out the copper thorn under the pillow and poked it directly——

"ah!"

The male ghost was startled, jumped up quickly, and quickly moved away.

Only then did the big black umbrella in the corner slowly open. Xiaolian came out from under the umbrella and exclaimed when she saw the male ghost in the room:

"Who are you? Why don't I feel it?"

As Bai Xuan said, although Xiaolian is not lethal enough, she has merit and is most sensitive to Yin Qi and resentment.

How could you not notice it at all?

Thinking about it again, although Bai Xuan was angry when he mentioned this male ghost, he was not furious...

this……

I blew the firewood and lit the candle, and then I saw a thin young male ghost occupying the center of the room. His skin was pale, but his appearance was quite delicate.

He was just wearing a pink or white robe, standing there with his hands and feet shrinking, looking particularly out of place.
