Chapter 29: The female ghost has been tricked!
Translator: 549690339
Not far from the car accident scene.
Xu Yang was squatting on the ground.
He was panting heavily, his body trembling, and his legs shaking!
Too…
Thrilling!
Almost got himself sent off!
It took Xu Yang several minutes to calm down.
He stood up and looked at the female ghost floating nearby, speechless, “Sis, my dear elder sister… Didn’t you say you could drive without using your eyes?”
The female ghost bowed her head, looking guilty, not writing bloody words anymore, murmuring, “How could I know that big truck would suddenly come out… Is that driver blind? Didn’t he see the red light?”
“You know about red lights?”
Xu Yang held his chest, angrily and painfully scolded, “How many red lights have you broken on the way?”
“Besides, it was you who ran the red light just now, not the big truck…”
“Aren’t you okay?”
The female ghost knew she was wrong, and although she was arguing, her voice became smaller and smaller: “What’s more, I even consumed my Yin energy to save you!”
“You and 1 are fine, but what if something happened to the big truck driver?”
“This car belongs to Ma Long…”
“Now it’s a wreck, how am I going to explain it to him?”
“Worst case, I’ll compensate him with a new one!”
The female ghost seemed to have thought of something, and her voice raised a few notches: “Isn’t it just a BMW? I, the Ghost King, have plenty of money… Alright, Xu Yang, stop talking nonsense, do you still want to find your grandpa?”
“You have money?”
Xu Yang had a suspicious look on his face.
“Of course.”
And the female ghost, wrote in blood once again.
Xu Yang’s head swelled instantaneously: “Elder sister, can we not write anymore? Since we have met and lived under the same roof, you’ve seen all of me, and we barely manage to get along, right?”
“Pah! Pah! Pah!”
The female ghost spoke in a clear voice, “1 would never get along with you… I just woke up and needed a place to stay. When I dig up the funerary treasures, I will buy myself a luxurious villa…”
“Hmm?”
Xu Yang’s eyes lit up, “Elder sister, you still have funerary treasures? How about 1 help you dig them up? Besides, when we humans buy villas, we need to register our identity, names, and get real estate certificates before we can move in… I can do all these things on your behalf.”
“Oh?”
The female ghost turned her head and looked at Xu Yang, “You don’t have any bad ideas, do you?”
Xu Yang gathered up his courage, pushed aside the black hair covering the female ghost’s face, and looked at her beautiful visage, “Elder sister, how could 1 have any bad intentions? You’ve been living in my house for so long and helped me out of trouble, it’s only right for me to repay you!”
“That’s settled then!”
“I’ll dig up your funerary items, buy your villa, and put my name on the real estate certificate later…”
Without giving the female ghost a chance to refute, Xu Yang looked at her face and said, “Elder sister, you are so beautiful!”
Although the female ghost was the Ghost King and was powerful.
But she had been a virgin before her death, and hadn’t even been married. And people from ancient times were very conservative, so a beautiful young woman like her had never experienced such sweet words.
She blushed and turned her head, rearranging her black hair, and after holding her breath for a long time, she finally said, “Don’t talk nonsense!”
“Elder sister, I am speaking from the bottom of my heart!”
Xu Yang swore, “Elder sister, you are really beautiful, and your voice is very pleasant to the ear. Covering your face with your hair and writing in blood every day is simply a waste… How about from now on, when it’s just the two of us, you tie up your hair and stop writing?”
As he spoke.
He took an elastic hair band from his storage space, and personally tied the female ghost’s hair into a ponytail.
The female ghost blushed and turned into a wisp of Yin energy, flying forward, “We are not far from Wang Wei. I’ll lead the way. Hurry up and follow!”
Heh!
Xu Yang felt delighted in his heart.
He looked back at the car accident scene and saw the driver pacing around the BMW, saying, “Police officer, I’m not lying! There was really no one in the car… Damn it, I’ve explained it a hundred times already, why don’t you believe me?”
“Send someone over, then you’ll see, won’t you?”
Without continuing to listen.
Xu Yang urged his mana, using the recently learned “Land Flight Skill” and chased after the Yin energy that the female ghost had turned into.
Wu City was already close to Lingzhou City.
The female ghost had been racing the car all the way, and at this moment, they were only two or three kilometers away from entering Lingzhou City.
“Huh?”
“How can you be so fast?”
The female ghost flew ahead, her red dress fluttering, and looked back to find Xu Yang had caught up with her, quite surprised.
“I just happened to learn a lightness skill.”
Xu Yang replied.
The female ghost, however, changed direction in the void just before entering the city.
Xu Yang followed, and they both stopped at the entrance of a farmhouse near Lingzhou City.
The farmhouse was quite impressive, occupying more than an acre of land, with Chinese-style architecture, and there seemed to be a pavilion in the courtyard, obviously expensive to build.
Wang Wei and his apprentices were all from the martial arts world.
With their wealth-gathering methods, building such a farmhouse was not difficult.
Compared to an apartment building, a farmhouse offered another advantage – it was convenient for practicing martial arts.
The gate of the courtyard was closed.
Although it was late at night.
There was a dim light on in the courtyard, twinkling like a candle burning.
Xu Yang did not knock on the door but performed the “Land Flight Skill” with a run-up, easily vaulting over the two-meter-high courtyard wall and landing inside.
Inside the courtyard, there was an open room.
There were candles burning, incense, a portrait of the deceased, a coffin, and flower wreaths and paper tribute.
According to tradition.
Wang Wei had brought his master’s body back home, just waiting for the vigil to end before burying it.
At this moment, he was kneeling in front of the coffin.
Next to the coffin was an oil lamp.
According to traditional customs, the ancients believed that the deceased would return home within the first seven days of death, so their children would wait in the mourning hall for the return of the deceased.
This oil lamp was a guiding light, in case the soul of the deceased got lost and became a wandering ghost.
“Who’s there?”
Wang Wei, after all, was a martial artist.
As soon as Xu Yang climbed in, he heard the sound, turned his head quickly, and rushed to the door. When he saw Xu Yang, his pupils shrank sharply, and he spoke in a deep voice, “It’s you? What are you doing in my house?”
“Leave now, or I’ll call the police and report you for breaking into my house illegally!”
“Call the police and report?”
Xu Yang laughed as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world, “Wang Wei, you, a man of the martial world, don’t you know the affairs of the martial world should stay in the martial world?”
He glanced at the mourning hall behind Wang Wei.
Xu Yang got straight to the point, “Wang Wei, where is my grandpa’s body?”
“I know you must have been instructed by someone… So, as long as you return my grandpa’s remains, 1 can let bygones be bygones!”
With that, his tone grew colder, “Otherwise, I’ll make sure your master won’t even be able to become a ghost!”
