Chapter 24: The Ghost Hits the Wall (Part 2)

  I looked up and saw the dense branches moving, what's inside? That was my first reaction.

  It's all messed up, everything in my heart is messed up.

  "Who is it?!" I yelled out in desperation.

  "It's me, it's me, it's me!" Suddenly, the three of them next to me let out a strange voice in unison. The sound was very close to my ears, so close that I felt a chill run down my spine. I collapsed onto the ground, sweating all over, not one of them was human, they were all ghosts.

  I covered my head, and the three ghosts slowly approached me, their hands stretched out very long, and they pinched my neck together. I felt like I couldn't breathe, a feeling of isolation and helplessness stimulated every cell in my body, and the sorrowful emotion was even stronger than the fear, and I fainted.

  I was in a daze and heard someone talking to me, but I couldn't open my eyes, yet I was still conscious.

  "Yang Guo, you can't be in trouble! You're supposed to save me!" The voice was so familiar, I had heard it somewhere before, my mind kept recalling.

  Always be yourself!

  It's Chang Ai's voice, since she last appeared in my dream, I haven't seen her again, how could she suddenly appear here?

  "Yang Guo, you've been plotted against by other ghosts and are being haunted. Your soul is on the verge of leaving your body, but I've temporarily suppressed it for you. You must hold on, or else your soul will dissipate." Chang E'er said.

  "Your friend seems to be helping you from outside, I can only help you this much, the rest is up to you."

  My body is still being locked up and can't move. But I feel like my body is floating upwards, and there's something pressing down on me. That should be a sign of my soul leaving my body.

  Outside, all four of them surrounded me together.

  "What's wrong with Yang Guo? How could he suddenly go mad and crash around like that?" Lin Miao asked Mao Shengjiu with a very anxious expression.

  "He was possessed by a ghost, and his soul should have left his body long ago. But there's a female ghost inside him that's holding down his soul." Mao Shi Jiu had known for some time that a female ghost had attached itself to me, but he could see that this ghost was nourishing my yin energy constitution, and didn't stop it. As a Taoist priest, he also knew that there were good ghosts and bad ghosts in the world. For example, Old Wu by his side was a good ghost, and Chang Ai Ai hadn't sucked away my yang energy, so in his eyes, Chang Ai Ai was also a good ghost.

  "What can we do?" Lin Mo was so anxious that she almost cried.

  "I can only temporarily use the Soul Recall Bell to slow down his soul's ascension, but I cannot make his soul re-enter his body. All of this depends on him himself." Mao Shi Jiu shook the Soul Recall Bell in his hand, muttering: "Soul return, if you leave, you'll become a lonely ghost." As if persuading the soul to return.

  My consciousness heard Mao Shi's soul-summoning bell and the tolling of the bell, the upward pressure eased slightly, but my soul was still slowly rising.

  No, I won't die. Having grown up like this, it's not easy to have a girl accept me, how can I die so easily? I haven't brought Lin Mo back to my hometown, let the villagers see that I'm not an unlucky person. And also let my old and tired father take a look at what his daughter-in-law looks like! My heart is thinking about this all the time.

  But the feeling of oppression did not decrease at all, and my head started to become unclear again, and my consciousness was about to be extinguished. It just felt like everything was starting to get blurry.

  "It's over, he can't hold on any longer, his consciousness is fading." Outside, Mao 19 couldn't sit still and quickened the rhythm of shaking the bell.

  Lin Mo was even more tearful outside, she grabbed my hand, her fingers tightly clasped.

  "Yang Guo, you can't have anything happen to you, you haven't even agreed to be my girlfriend yet. If you just leave like this, I definitely won't let you go." Lin Mo sobbed.

  "We've both died once already. If you leave me again, I won't survive on my own either. You have to come back to life for me." By this point, she was sobbing uncontrollably.

  "I like you, I like you, don't leave me, you haven't married me yet?" Lin Mo's eyes were already red and swollen from crying, she sobbed as she buried her head in my chest.

  Who's calling me? Lin Mo? She said she likes me, but am I going to die? I owe it to him and haven't taken care of her for a lifetime.

  "Look, he's crying." Li Jian Tian exclaimed, my body had already left my soul, and yet my eyes were still tearing up.

  A line of tears streamed down, filling my face and cheeks. Lin Mo wiped away the tears on my face and made a shocking move towards me, leaning in to kiss my lips.

  A sudden tingling sensation ran through his mind and he was completely awake.

  I won't die, I won't leave Lin Mo. My consciousness gradually took control of the soul's dominance, and I tried to press down hard, the soul was slowly entering my body.

  "Look, this is effective. Lin Mo, you continue to kiss. Come on!" Zhang Xinyu exclaimed happily.

  "My goodness, the power of love!" Mao Jiu's eyes widened in amazement.

  The woods' silent kiss grew deeper and more passionate, and the power within me grew stronger as well. Finally, my soul and body merged into one.

  I had already woken up, but I didn't want to open my eyes so quickly. I wanted Lin Mo to kiss me for a while longer, to savor this sweet first kiss.

  However, in the woods, there were a lot of mosquitoes. A hungry mosquito ruined my fun and bit me on the leg, causing unbearable itching. In the end, I couldn't stand it and scratched it with my hand.

  One wrong move and it's all over, they've all seen me make a move with my hand.

  "He woke up." Everyone cheered and applauded.

  "He's faking sleep." Mao Shi Jiu had seen through it long ago, yet he actually said it out loud in front of so many people.

  I suddenly opened my eyes, and Lin Mo's lips had already left.

  "In my heart, a thousand grasses and nineteen weeds have flown over your grandfather. As the saying goes, people are hard to untie, first kiss, haven't enjoyed enough yet."

  Lin Mo looked at me and woke up, excitedly smiled, but just laughed out loud and was choked back, hugged me and burst into tears.

  "It's okay, quiet down, I'm fine." I comforted her, stroking her head.

  But she cried even harder, her tears wetting my clothes, and it was a handful of snot and a handful of tears.

  "It's okay, it's okay." I said, kissing her head.

  Lin fell silent.

  "You should come out too." Mao Shi Jiu said to me, everyone looked at him strangely, except for me.

  Chang Ai Ai exposed himself to save me. He didn't know that Mao Shi Jiu had discovered her, so he was very wary of this Taoist priest. A white shadow flashed out, and a beautiful female ghost with a slender figure appeared in the field of vision, wearing white clothes.

  Chang Aiai is many times more beautiful than the corpses I've seen, her face and figure are both top-notch. Now it's confirmed that she has an F-cup bust. Chang Aiai is hiding behind me in fear, staring at Mao Shijiu's every move.

  Thinking they couldn't see ghosts, he gave each of them a drop of cow's tears.

  "My mom is older than me." Suddenly came Zhang Xinyu's voice. Her first reaction was not to fear the ghost, but to compare her chest with hers, it's really speechless.

  Lin Mo was relatively normal, but seeing the female ghost hiding behind me, she might have been a bit jealous, pouting her mouth.

  Li Jian Tian didn't even need to be mentioned, still with a silly look on his face, very straightforward, unwilling to take another glance.

  "Who are you? Why have you been staying with Yang Guo all this time?" asked Mao Shi Jiu suddenly.

  "Chao is nineteen, she's my friend, don't bully her." I shielded Chang Ai.

  "We Taoist priests, although we are responsible for exorcising evil spirits, also distinguish between good and evil spirits. As long as she doesn't do evil, I won't capture her. Otherwise, if she had been on you for so long, I would have subdued her already. Last time, I wanted to tell you that there was a spirit on you, but she wasn't doing any harm, instead, she was nourishing your yin energy, so I didn't tell you." said Mao Shi Jiu.

  I told Mai Shiwen all about my encounters with Chang Ai'ai in detail.

  "So, you're saying you came out of hiding?" Mao Shi Jiu asked Chang Ai Ai.

  Chang Ai nodded, "I escaped from Yincang."

  "What's inside the mysterious box?"

  "I didn't know either, I had just died and entered recently, I could only wander around the entrance of the hiding place, I had never been inside before. Yang Guo opened the entrance to the hidden cave, and that's when I got a chance to escape."

  It turned out that the Formica wooden box was a hidden entrance.

  "Why did you ask Yang Guo for help? What do you want him to help you with?"

  "At that time, I was very weak and my soul was unstable. On Yang Guo's body, I felt a sense of closeness. His yin energy was very heavy, so when I attached myself to his body, it was to nourish my soul. In return, his yin energy also received nourishment. I asked Yang Guo to help me find my corpse, only then could I save my child. My child had been taken by an evil spirit, and the only way to locate him was through the umbilical cord on my corpse, so that I could rescue him." Chang E'er burst into tears.

  "I was killed on the operating table, and I was seven months pregnant at the time of my death. The umbilical cord of the corpse was not cut short, that's the only way I could feel the child."

  "After I died, my soul met an evil spirit. The evil spirit took my soul and locked it in the land of darkness."

  Evil spirit? Could it be that ghostly creature? Eight or nine out of ten, it should be him.

  "Please, you have to help me find my child." Cháng àiài suddenly knelt down in front of us.

  "You get up, even if you don't say it, we will still go and subdue that ghostly creature." Mao Shi Jiu's eyes gleamed with a fierce light.

  Mao Shi Jiu now had a pretty good idea of what was going on in his mind, and he was about 80 or 90 percent sure that the ghostly creature was refining something.

  "Don't worry, your child is safe for now. I can guarantee that." Mao Shi Jiu said to Chang Ai Ai.

  "Thank you, thank you all." Chang Aiyue finally showed a happy expression.

  "You've been attached to Yang Guo's body for so long, it's not a big deal, but this prolonged attachment will also harm his physical body, so now you can't stay on his body anymore." Mao Shi Jiu seemed to be about to issue an eviction order.

  "Let him follow us, otherwise I won't be your apprentice anymore." I threatened Mao Shi Jiu with this again.

  "You little scamp, won't you come up with some other tricks? I didn't tell her to leave, what do you think I'm doing here?" Mao Shi Jiu said with an innocent face.

  "I have a piece of jade here, you can attach yourself to the jade, Yang Guo wears the jade, and the jade can absorb his yin energy, which can also nourish your soul." Mao Shi Jiu took out a pale green jade pendant.

  "Really?" I took the jade and bit it a few times.

  "Isn't it expensive?" I smiled foolishly.

  "This is indeed the jade passed down from my ancestors, from now on you will be my disciple." Ma Shi Jiu said with some pain.

  "And also, you will be responsible for protecting my disciple Bao Bei from now on." Mao Shi Jiu said to Chang Ai Ai.

  Chang Ai nodded slightly and then entered the Jade Pendant.

  "Now it's our turn to catch ghosts." said Mao Shi Jiu to us.

  "The wall was knocked on my head by a ghost, and it's also because these ghosts don't know how to behave."
