The world that only ghosts know

  Now, Xiao Qian and the little dog are both gone. If there's still some evil spirit haunting me at this moment, I'll be doomed.

  Thinking again, people with strong yang energy should be less likely to be targeted, after all, it doesn't match the nature of ghosts who only have yin energy, they can hardly take advantage of their weakness.

  After dinner in the evening, I couldn't help but feel grateful for my sister's meticulous care. Thinking about the many strange things that have happened over the past two days, I thought of a way to relax a bit.

  So I thought of going back to my room to watch some videos, yeah, that kind of video, you know what I mean. Don't say I'm evil, actually watching that kind of video can make your mood relax to the extreme and produce a very strong sense of happiness, and even cause temporary memory loss. This is not me talking nonsense, it's all scientifically proven.

  Just as I was enjoying the show and wanted to imitate my girlfriend with my right hand, I received a text message from Chen Xiao: "Did Zhang Feng bother you this afternoon?"

  I originally thought I wouldn't say anything, but thinking carefully, Chen Xiao is such a clever girl, if she knew that I won't be going to school tomorrow, she would immediately suspect Zhang Feng.

  So I replied: "Yeah, he was looking for me, we just had a simple chat, nothing happened, but I'm not afraid of him."

  "It's all my fault."

  I smiled and continued to reply: "It's not your fault, it's me who wanted to get involved with Zhang Feng, didn't listen to your advice. Alright, really nothing happened."

  This time, Chen Xiao took a long time to reply to me. She asked: "Are you still coming to school tomorrow?"

  At this point, she suddenly felt a pang in her heart. Even if she said she wasn't afraid, he wouldn't believe her anyway. She was torn for a long time and didn't know how to answer the question, so she just didn't respond.

  The next morning I slept in until 8 o'clock, got up feeling aimless, ate some breakfast my sister had prepared, did some radio exercises to strengthen my waist and body, and received another text message on my phone.

  Thought it was a message from Chen Xiao, opened it immediately, but it turned out to be an express delivery notice: Your package "Peach Blossom Manual" has arrived at xx location, please pick it up at the designated express point.

  I was a bit unhappy at that time, thinking that express delivery is supposed to be door-to-door. When I called to ask, the staff on the other end of the phone told me that this is a confidential item and must be picked up in person. Moreover, the insured value is very high, they are worried about losing it during transportation.

  I wiped it, is my hook soul bottle so mysterious? I bought it once before, wasn't it that complicated? Did it come with an inflatable thing or something? This...this isn't quite right, is it? Brother doesn't like using that kind of stuff! But since it was sent over, I'll just barely accept it.

  Went to the express delivery point to sign for it, and the courier carefully handed me a small package. After opening it at home, I found that it was a book with four big characters on it: Peach Blossom Treasure Book.

  I suddenly remembered that this wasn't what I played yesterday with the one-yuan second-kill thing, how did it arrive so quickly? Was it a dedicated machine for delivery or something?

  With curiosity, I opened this book and started reading it seriously. The book is a bit old, looking like it has experienced several decades of wind and frost.

  As I opened the first page, I thought this should be a typical spoof book, and it would definitely start with something like "to practice this skill, you must first castrate yourself". But the result was beyond my expectation. On top of the page, in neat brush calligraphy, it was written: "When you open this book, my soul has already disappeared from this world. This book is my life's work. If you want to know the secrets of this world, please continue reading."

  Wiped it clean, what kind of cultivation treasure book is this, this damn thing is a will!

  Continue reading below, what's written above is a bit startling:

  My name is Lin Kun, I've spent my whole life studying the supernatural. But in the end, I still fell under the curse of the Ten Thousand Demons, and now I'm suffering unbearable pain.

  I can no longer bear such suffering, but it is well known that suffering arises from the existence of the flesh, so I have decided to leave my body and become a ghost.

  Don't think I'm dead, physical death is not true death. True death is when the soul disperses and loses its ability to reincarnate. Only then can it truly return to nothingness and merge with all things.

  So, just because I don't exist in this world doesn't mean I don't exist in another one.

  Let's stop talking nonsense, I believe that you who can see this book already have a certain understanding of another world.

  Let's just say that I left this book with significance. This Peach Blossom Treasure, records various methods of expelling ghosts and demons, which is what people now call a ghost-expelling master.

  "My request is: Please learn the knowledge in this book and carry on my legacy. Of course, you can also choose not to learn it, but if you don't, I'll haunt you even after I'm dead."

  Of course, I won't let you learn in vain. In the package, there is another gift, a divine book that I have treasured for many years. There is also a very traditional jade pendant, which is extremely precious, even more precious than your life. Please cherish it well.

  That's all for now, feel free to come and chat with me anytime, I'll be more than happy to have you. Of course, I also hope you won't come over so soon.

  Farewell then.

  After finishing it, I felt that it was really nonsense. I casually threw away the book and looked to see what else was in the package.

  After rummaging through, there was indeed only one book and a jade pendant. The name of the book is "Xinping Mei", and the jade pendant is very beautiful, it's a semi-circular shape. On its surface, there are strange stripes all over, which disappear at the edges, that is to say, this jade pendant has another half?

  This Lin Kun said that the jade pendant is more important than life? Haha, isn't it very valuable? Wait until I take it to sell one day!

  I still like this book, I flipped through a few pages, it's so wonderful, the pure love story of Ximen and Miss Pan, I'm not willing to sell it.

  It was one morning, I was reading "Jin Ping Mei" in the room, and I was having a great time. After lunch, I continued to read, and at around 3 pm, my phone rang with an unfamiliar number. After answering, the person on the other end told me: Your express delivery has arrived, please go out to pick it up.

  I picked up a big package on the way out, and to my surprise, there were eight black soul-catching bottles inside. So I immediately summoned the little dog and let it rest in one of the bottles.

  "Alright, the bottles have arrived, time to get busy." I muttered to myself and stretched my waist. With the backpack full of bottles, phone in hand, I embarked on a journey to capture beast souls. For some reason, I also packed the Peach Blossom Scripture and Xing Bottle Plum into my backpack.

  Yes, now what I need most is money. Once I have the money, I can buy things like Soul Capturing Bottles, Ghost Repellent Talismans, and Soul Severing Knives. Then mom won't have to worry about me being haunted by ghosts anymore.

  Xiao Qian once said that the place with the most beast souls is a desolate suburb with few people, but I don't think so.

  I think that in places with many people, to be more precise, in places with many women, and even more precisely, in places with many rich beautiful women, there should be more beast souls. Why do I say this? Because I think that rich beautiful women love raising pets, and pets will eventually die, but many pets are very emotional, so their spirits may still follow their owners after death.

  With this idea in mind, with the opportunity to hook up with a rich and beautiful woman, I have three destinations.

  The first place is Jinghua City, which is a relatively high-end shopping mall in our city. There are many rich women or mistresses who come and go here, and you might be able to meet one.

  I just arrived at Jinghua City and strolled around for a bit, but I didn't even see a few white-rich-beauties, and the soul detector also didn't detect any beast souls.

  I find it unbelievable, this place is so high-end and elegant, but there are surprisingly few white-rich-beauties. So I hooked up with a male store clerk at a certain clothing franchise store. With my brother's good looks, the male clerk quickly fell for me, after some small talk, I asked: "Why are there so few beauties here? Is it because they don't come out to play during the day? Business is a bit bleak, brother."

  The male shop assistant sighed, his turbid eyes revealing a sense of helplessness: "Yes, those women, the younger ones prefer online shopping, while the older ones don't like these trendy clothes. And this location is quite remote, with very low foot traffic."

  "I sympathetically asked: 'Don't they come out at night either?'"

  The male shop assistant said: "At night, they usually get into bed in the hotel and then you know what."

  What's going on? I don't understand anything!

  Then I went to the second destination, the second destination was the pedestrian street. At this time it was almost six o'clock in the afternoon. I called my sister and said that I wouldn't be back for dinner tonight. Then continue on the journey of catching beast souls.

  There are many beautiful women on the pedestrian street, but I don't know if it's because of the low level or lack of love, there are hardly any who raise pets, let alone beast souls.

  After another hour of busyness, I didn't get any results. I went to a fast food restaurant and had a simple dinner. With a disappointed heart, I put all my hopes on the last stop: the bar.

  "Damn it, I'm so tired today. Even if I couldn't catch the beast soul, I'll just hang out with a chick at the bar and have some ambiguous conversations to distract myself."
