Chapter 35: The Duel of the Gravekeepers

  Dreams are not just reflections of things that have happened in reality, but may also be a reflection of things that are about to happen. Whether you believe it or not, I do anyway.

  The two exchanged a fiery gaze, neither able to gauge the other's strength. Gao Le also revealed a hint of worry. He didn't want to implicate Liu Yuanyuan and this group of true brothers and sisters. Even though they hadn't been together for long, they had already exchanged their true hearts and gone through life-and-death struggles together. What complex emotions that was, almost no one could understand. Although the evil grave master was only for himself, he was ultimately not the same as his previous self.

  Gao Le thought repeatedly, still feeling strange. It's been more than half a century. Why can't the other party let go? And when he was young, why didn't he take action? Was it to make his life miserable? Gao Le found an excuse to wipe out this disaster.

  After finishing the leftover noodles, Gao Le started tidying up some things in the store, completely ignoring Zhou Feng and the girl's affectionate scene, while Xiao Cui stared at her with rapt attention, even thinking that if she and Gao Le were like this, it would be truly anticipated. The clothes-girl image appeared again.

  "Hey! What's wrong with you! Come and help out!" Little Cui, who was startled by Gao Le's words, pouted and walked over reluctantly. Who knew that these two were really shameless, they had already kissed each other after just one night. What kind of world is this? Even ghosts have springtime too!

  It's been a while. Gao Le and Xiao Cui, who came down from upstairs, were shocked, it's almost half an hour now, these two seem to have no intention of stopping, they can really go participate in that kissing contest! Absolutely champion.

  "I'm talking to you two! Aren't you ashamed? It's broad daylight and there are still people in the house!" Xiao Cui finally spoke up, then sat down in front of the counter like a child, staring at the computer.

  But Gao Le, on the other hand, was not drawn in by the gazes of these two people. At this moment, he saw the grave master staring at him from across the way, and even smiled smugly. This sharp sword pierced deeply into Gao Le's heart. He would never be able to forget that smile, sinister and terrifying. And his eyes also revealed a hint of murderous intent.

  He knew today would be an extraordinary day. A customer came to the store, buying some hell notes and other things, obviously for worshiping his family members.

  "Oh, boss! So young and already a Taoist priest! What a waste! Haven't found a wife yet, have you?" said a middle-aged woman, who was probably almost forty years old. But she was telling the truth.

  "Haha! You're joking. Isn't this all just for the sake of living? This is just how the world is, get used to it!" Gao Le said without evasion. Then he conveniently handed over a few of his private seals and passes. These were non-sellable items that could allow ghosts in the underworld who were about to be reincarnated to return to the mortal realm and bid farewell to their loved ones.

  "When you make offerings, burn this too! There are two hundred in total," said Gao Le, and then he took a red pouch to pack them up.

  "This stuff is really cheap! This business isn't easy to do, ah! Young man, thank you!" After finishing speaking, the woman took her things and walked out with a smile on her face. If everyone in this world thought like this aunt, it would be great. The young man also smiled as he walked into the store.

  Suddenly, his right eyelid started jumping wildly. This was not good, and he immediately felt tense in his heart. For no reason at all, Gao Le hastily walked out of the store door. He took a glance at that aunt. But there wasn't one. Why was this? Shaking his head, he walked into the store.

  Apart from Zhou Feng and the girl's bickering, it was just Xiao Cui playing some sad love songs. He had just sat down at his desk when his phone suddenly rang. Gao Le picked up the phone, but unlike usual, no one spoke for a long time. After a while, a sorrowful voice came from inside: "Our deadline has arrived. Take care of yourself!" Then the phone returned to normal, without even showing the caller's number. Just as Gao Le put down the phone, he found a text message. It was from Liu Yueyue, asking him to go to the hospital. He couldn't delay such matters. Taking his jacket, he walked out of the store.

  Watching Gao Le leave with Xiao Cui, she also stood up and chased after them. The two of them got in the car and headed to the hospital.

  When Gao Le arrived at Liu Yueyue's ward, he found that it was so quiet here, no wonder she would send a text message. At this time, there were no other patients in the room, and Liu Yueyue lay alone on the hospital bed, holding her mobile phone with earphones on, listening to music with her eyes closed, like a girl in love, with a smile all over her face.

  Xiao Cui saw Gao Le beside her, and quietly walked into the hospital room. She knew this wasn't a place she should stay for long. She tactfully walked out of the room, stood at the balcony in the corridor, basking in the sunlight. She often let out a sigh to calm herself down. Maybe it was because she had been too self-willed! So she slowly learned to let go. Who made her a thousand-year-old ghost instead of a normal person back then?!

  Time flies, and the warmth on the balcony is slowly fading. Watching the sunset, Xiao Cui's face glows with a golden light. Her long black hair floats gently in the air. A pure and lovely girl. She has suffered too many regrets, and even passed away at a young age without ever having been in love. But this doesn't affect her now. She is content, able to live like a normal person.

  The ward was still only Gao Le and Liu Yueyue, the two seemed to have become very quiet. The lively and smiling girl from before had also become speechless. She just stared at Gao Le, wanting to say something, but didn't know what to say. Gao Le quietly sat on the bed, watching Liu Yueyue.

  A gust of cold wind blew by. Suddenly, a nurse carrying a syringe burst into their line of sight. Her face was icy and her movements stiff. But the heavily seated Gao Le didn't notice Liu Yuemei's shocked expression at all. And Little Cui standing outside also felt a chill emanating from the hospital room.

  "Wait! Can you call your doctor over?" The nurse was taken aback, her face stiffening as she forced a twisted smile. Suddenly, she picked up a scalpel from the medical tray and stabbed it towards Liu Yueyue, who was lying on the hospital bed. Everything happened too suddenly, leaving Gao Le no time to react. By the time he stretched out his hand, it was already too late. The scalpel had pierced Liu Yueyue's snowy throat, and a stream of blood gushed out. Then, the nurse picked up the scalpel again and stabbed it into her own neck, another stream of blood spraying out. Gao Le was now holding Liu Yueyue, who was lying on the hospital bed, one hand pressing against her bleeding throat.

  No one had expected that this brief happiness would be swiftly destroyed by a conspiracy. Liu Yuemei's face was contorted in pain, unable to conceal her regret, as she grasped Gao Le's hand with one of hers, trying to say something. Tears burst forth from Gao Le's eyes like the Yellow River bursting its banks. He gritted his teeth, trying not to let himself cry out loud. His lips trembled as he stammered: "No! No! Yuemei! Yuemei!..."

  At this time, Xiao Cui stood in front of the door, clenching her fists and tears streaming down her face. She had never seen Gao Le so miserable before. Although she hated Liu Yuemei in her heart, she didn't want her to die! Just then, a group of doctors and nurses appeared behind her. Some nurses couldn't bear the shocking scene and covered their mouths, while others let out shrill cries, attracting many onlookers from other hospital rooms!

  Trembling hands, already powerless to press down. Gao Le was sprawled on Liu Yuemei's face.

  "I...I really...like...you." Before she could finish, Liu Yuemei's limbs went limp and she lay quietly in Gao Le's arms. No matter how hard Gao Le shook her or how much he cried, he couldn't wake up the already lifeless Liu Yuemei. The doctors beside them took off their glasses, feeling regretful and painful for the two of them. This all happened right before Gao Le's eyes. It was a heavy blow to his mind.

  He vowed to find the culprit behind this, which was obviously the work of the grave master. He had a strong urge to rush into that store and eliminate him. But Liu Yuemei would never come back! All of this was his own doing. His tightly clenched teeth didn't relax for a moment. He hoarsely shouted out Liu Yuemei's name.

  Xiao Cui was also weakly curled up in the corner of the wall. Everything came too suddenly, she was powerless. She felt very useless.
