Yang Yin:
She was a little confused.
What…
What’s going on?
Not only is there a Ghost King living in the master’s house, their relationship seems a bit subtle, too!
Did she get angry when she saw me come back with the master?
In Yang Yin’s beautiful eyes, the fire of gossip started to burn!
But she quickly realized something and shivered!
That’s a Ghost King!
It wouldn’t be harder to kill herself than to kill a fly, right?
“My safety comes first… I’ll find another opportunity to take back my precious nanmu coffin!”
Yang Yin made up her mind to leave the funeral store. However, just as she stepped out of the door, she found that she could not move a single step under an unknown force.
Yang Yin’s face changed dramatically, and she obediently retreated back into the funeral store!
Lord Ghost…
Seems like he doesn’t want her to leave!
Meanwhile.
Second floor of the funeral store.
Xu Yang used the Land Flight Skill, arriving at the sofa as soon as the female ghost floated onto it.
“Huh?”
“Your skills have improved again, and you’ve learned a powerful lightness skill?”
Initially, the female ghost had no intention of paying any attention to Xu Yang, but seeing him, she couldn’t help but comment.
After that…
She started watching TV intently.
Xu Yang pondered for a few seconds, organized his thoughts, then said, “Lady Ghost, it’s not what you think… That female ghost has no place to go, 1 just brought her back to the store for a few days.”
The female ghost continued to stare at the TV without saying a word.
“Really!”
“When an auspicious day comes, I’ll find her a new home, and she’ll leave.”
Xu Yang added.
With a flick of the eyelid, the female ghost glanced at Xu Yang out of the corner of her eye and said indifferently, “This is your home, and it’s your right to bring a woman back. Why do you need to explain to me?”
“She is not human.”
“Exactly, she is not a woman, she is a female demon!”
The female ghost held the remote control, randomly switching TV channels.
Xu Yang wanted to continue, but just then, Yang Yin floated up from the staircase, not daring to look directly at the female ghost, cautiously saying, “Lord Ghost King, don’t blame the master, if there’s anyone to blame, it’s me for being weak and powerless. My home was taken away, and now even my coffin has been dug up.”
She wiped her tears, chokingly said, “I have nowhere to go, it’s the master who took pity on me and agreed to take me in. If Lord Ghost King is unwilling, 1 will leave at once.”
Holy cow!
Witnessing this scene, Xu Yang was stunned.
What the hell is this?
Is this… the legendary green tea?
How did a Republic of Da Xia period female ghost learn such a trick?
And you’re a ghost, you don’t have tears, so why are you wiping them away in such a pitiful manner?
Unexpectedly, the female ghost in the house didn’t get angry.
She looked at Yang Yin and asked, “What’s your name? How old are you? You’re so young, you don’t look like you’ve lived a full life. How did you die?”
“Answering Lord Ghost King, my name is Yang Yin, born in Xuantong 2nd year and died in the Republic of Da Xia 20th year.”
Yang Yin obediently replied, “I was 22 when I died. At that time, there were numerous warlords in the country, and foreign powers invaded our land, including a watchful eye from Fusang. My father was a famous businessman in the northwest, but he was targeted by the leader of a warlord faction who wanted to marry into my family. I would rather die than submit, so to preserve my chastity, 1 committed suicide by poisoning myself.”
On the side, Xu Yang silently calculated.
Xuantong 2nd year was Puyi’s second year on the throne, which was in 1910.
In 1912, the Republic of Da Xia was established… the 20th year of the Republic of Da Xia was in 1932, which means she was exactly 22 years old.
The previously indifferent female ghost seemed much more emotional after hearing Yang Yin’s words.
She said, “Your background is somewhat similar to mine… My family name is Liu, and my name is Shishi. I was born into a scholarly family. My father held a fourth-grade official position, serving as a policy consultant in Xi’an government. Unfortunately, he was framed by traitors and arrested by the Embroidered Uniform Guard to the prison.”
“According to the law, I would be forced to become an official prostitute… I refused and slit my wrist to commit suicide.”
Yang Yin choked even harder, “I didn’t expect Lord Ghost King to have such a tragic past.”
Liu Shishi floated over to Yang Yin and grabbed her hand, saying, “We both died by suicide and met each other here. It must be fate. I’m three to four hundred years older than you, so if it doesn’t bother you, just call me elder sister!”
“Ah?”
Yang Yin was overjoyed, “Elder sister!”
“Little sister… why are you crying again?”
“Elder sister, these are tears of joy…”
H H
Xu Yang stood by, watching in amazement.
What the heck?!
Is this a thing?
Your way of greeting as ghosts is just too… you know!
When normal people meet, they say hello, ask if they have eaten, talk about where they made money.
But you are different. Your conversation starts with when and how you died… What if someone overhears this? Wouldn’t they be scared to death?
Night has fallen.
Xu Yang suddenly remembered that he hadn’t closed the outside shutter door yet.
He went downstairs, closed the rolling shutter door, and when he returned to the second floor, the two female ghosts had already become close friends. They sat shoulder to shoulder on the couch, each calling the other sister, chatting intimately!
Yang Yin: “Elder sister, is this the legendary TV? I’ve seen it before by peeking through the windows of other people’s houses when I went out for a stroll.”
“Yes, this is a TV.”
Liu Shishi picked up the remote control: “Look, this button is to change channels, this one increases the volume, and this one decreases the volume… You can watch many movies and TV shows on this, but most of them require a VIP membership, which can be frustrating for a ghost!”
Yang Yin: “VIP? Elder sister, what is VIP?”
Liu Shishi stammered, unable to explain concisely.
“VIP means a membership. Once you charge a membership, you can watch everything.”
Xu Yang came over and complained, “But now there are too many programs on TV, and once you subscribe to one membership, you may have to pay again to watch another show. It’s just a rip-off. Later, I’ll buy a computer and open a few video memberships so we can watch all the shows.”
“By the way, do you guys eat?”
“I’m going to get some instant noodles.”
And with that, he went into the kitchen.
In a short while, he had prepared three bowls of instant noodles.
It was Yang Yin’s first time eating instant noodles. She took a deep sniff and accidentally inhaled two strands of white vapor into her nostrils, causing her to cough. The cough released a cold Yin energy throughout the room.
The hot weather suddenly cooled down.
Xu Yang took a bite of the instant noodles and suddenly thought of something, “Lady Ghost…”
Before he could finish calling her Lady Ghost, he remembered that the female ghost had just introduced herself as Liu Shishi, so he quickly changed his words, “Shishi, you mentioned earlier that your father was framed by traitors and sent to prison, right?”
“In that case, your family should have been confiscated, right?”
“You mentioned earlier about having burial items…. If your family was confiscated, where did you get them?”
