Q: What are your thoughts on transmigrating to a supernatural world?
Xiang Yan: (Wants to cry but has no tears) I... I'm afraid of ghosts...
Xiang Yan had been afraid of ghosts sinc...
"..." Helplessly pressing the solar plexus, Xiang Yin pulled Su He to a corner, and then told her roughly what had happened to her during this period.
First there was the fire ghost at Xuzhou High School, and then there was the ghost market we encountered a few nights ago.
"..." After hearing Xiang Yan's words, Su He looked as if the door to a new world had been opened. He was in a daze for a long time before he came to his senses.
Rather than hiding the truth from Su He, Xiang Yin felt that it would be better to let her know the truth. At least after she knew the existence of ghosts, she would no longer be curious about the strange shop.
Su He came back to his senses and took Xiang Yin to look at her carefully. He said with concern, "You just encountered a ghost two nights ago. Why didn't you take a good rest and come out to accompany me shopping?"
Hearing Su He's caring words, Xiang Yin felt warm in her heart, and felt that the friendship between her and Su He for so many years was indeed very solid. Then she looked at Su He who looked disapproving and explained: "It's not that you finally came to play with me, I didn't want to miss it, and coming out for a walk actually made me feel a lot more relaxed."
After taking a closer look at Xiang Yin and finding that she was indeed not forcing herself, Su He put aside his worries and pulled Xiang Yin to continue shopping.
Because Xiang Yin didn't look like the type who was afraid of ghosts, Su He curiously asked Xiang Yin many questions about ghosts while walking around. Xiang Yin also took the opportunity to remind Su He again not to touch upon anything related to ghosts.
As the two were talking, they somehow ended up talking about the ghost messengers Ihara and Bai Jing.
"Wow, Brother Xiang Yan is as popular as ever." Su He and Xiang Yin have known each other for several years, so naturally he has also met Xiang Yan.
To be honest, Su He had a very deep impression of Xiang Yan. In addition to his care and concern for Xiang Yin and Xiang Shi, Xiang Yan himself was also an unforgettable and outstanding person.
However, what impressed me most was Xiang Yan’s flourishing love life.
It’s a pity that from the past to now, it seems that no one can get Xiang Yan’s favor.
"Yeah." Xiang Yin nodded in agreement, then frowned a little distressedly, "But along with these peach blossoms, there are also countless ghost incidents."
Xiang Yin discovered that Xiang Yan and the others’ encounters with ghosts seemed to have started after they met the ghost catcher Ihara.
Ever since meeting Yi Yuan, ghost-like incidents have occurred one after another around Xiang Yan. The same was true after he met Bai Jing. It seemed that wherever they appeared, something bad would happen. Encountering ghosts was a common occurrence.
Sometimes Xiang Yin couldn't help but wonder if Yi Yuan and Bai Jing were under some kind of curse that could attract ghosts.
Bai Jing, who was miserably blamed, was silently protecting Xiang Yin and Su He in secret, while helplessly listening to Xiang Yin's doubtful words.
[I really don't have any curse to attract ghosts, it's all coincidence.] Bai Jing couldn't help but complain in his heart.
[Puff.] Xiang Yan used part of his consciousness to follow Bai Jing, and when he saw Bai Jing's frowning and distressed expression, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.
[Hey...] Bai Jing looked at the gloating main body and said silently, [What are you laughing at? I'm not the only one who's been misunderstood anyway.]
[Ahem.] Xiang Yan bowed his head, suppressed his smile, and got down to business. [Pay more attention to Xiaoyin. I've asked Yi Yuan to go check out that strange store.]
[Yeah.] Bai Jing responded, and then nimbly followed Xiang Yin and Su He who were walking in front.
When Xiang Yin and Su He encountered that strange shop, Bai Jing secretly became alert and worried that Xiang Yin and the others would go in out of curiosity. Fortunately, Xiang Yin remained vigilant and did not go in. Instead, he took a detour and left there.
After Xiang Yin and the others left, Bai Jing wrote down the location of the store and told it to Xiang Yan.
Afterwards, Xiang Yan checked the information of the store through the system, and the result was beyond his expectations.
It wasn't a place where ghosts lived, but rather a place similar to a prop store.
Su He was right. The shop was a store selling magical items that connected yin and yang.
Various strange ghost-catching props are often sold there, and it is a place frequented by various Taoist priests and people with special abilities from the folk.
Generally speaking, ordinary people cannot see that shop. As for why Xiang Yin and Su He could see it.
The system explained that Xiang Yin must have encountered ghosts several times and stayed in the energy fluctuation range of the ghosts for a long time, so he could see them. As for Su He...
[Miss Su He’s physique is very suitable for practicing Taoism.] The system replied.
[It won't have any impact on the age, right?] As for physical constitution, Xiang Yan was not surprised because his classmate Shen Bing had a rare physical constitution that brought bad luck. He was more worried about Xiang Yin.
[Dear, don't worry.] The system comforted: [People who have just encountered ghosts will be more likely to see things in the underworld than others. It will be fine in a few days.]
[I'm glad you're okay.] Xiang Yan nodded slightly in relief, then summoned Yi Yuan back and asked Yi Yuan to go to the strange shop.
Although the system said that those stores were normal and there were more or less a few in every city, Xiang Yan still wanted to go and see them in person to be at ease.
And he himself was actually quite curious about what was in those shops.
Just when Xiang Yan sent Yi Yuan to the store, Xiang Yin and Su He were still strolling around the street.
Because Su He knew that Xiang Yin had encountered a ghost incident before, he took Xiang Yin to places that could easily make people feel relaxed, so that Xiang Yin could relax his previous nervous mood.
"Huh..." Su He brought Xiang Yin to a milk tea shop and sat down. After putting down the things she bought, she breathed a sigh of relief and wiped her face, "I'm so tired."
After shopping for a whole day, Su He bought a lot of things.
"How are you going to take so many things you bought?" Xiang Yin looked at the large and small packaging bags on the ground with a little worry.
Su He is not from Xuzhou City. It takes a long time for her to take a bus to get here, and it is really inconvenient to carry so many things.
"Well... I'll send it back." Su He thought about it and realized that he really couldn't carry so many things, so he decided to send it back by express delivery.
After seeing that Su He had a solution, Xiang Yin said nothing more. The two of them sat in the milk tea shop and drank milk tea leisurely.
until……
"ah!!!!!"
A miserable scream came from not far away from the milk tea shop, and then a woman in a blue dress stumbled out of a toilet with a terrified look on her face.
"?"
Xiang Yin and Su He looked over in confusion.
"Someone's dead..." the woman said fearfully.
"What?!!!"
After hearing the woman's words, the people around were in an uproar and began to whisper to each other. Many timid people showed expressions of fear and nervousness on their faces.
Xiang Yin and Su He in the milk tea shop looked at each other in surprise, then frowned slightly and looked worriedly at the growing crowd outside.
It was the shop assistants in the surrounding stores who reacted quickly and sent someone brave enough to go in and take a look at the situation, and then called the police.
Because everyone around was considered a witness, especially the woman who ran out, the police asked everyone to stay where they were and not leave, including Xiang Yin and Su He.
So while waiting for the police to arrive, Xiang Yin communicated with the people around him and got a general idea of the situation.
The woman in blue clothes who ran out found blood flowing out from the next door when she was using the toilet. After she opened the door next door, she saw a woman who had died tragically.
Although Xiang Yin and Su He did not see it with their own eyes, they knew from the descriptions of the people around them that the people inside had died very tragically, with blood gushing out of all their orifices and their stomachs ripped open. It was a horrific sight.
Xiang Yin and Su He couldn't help but get goose bumps as they listened to the description and huddled together tightly.
Fortunately, the police arrived quickly. Xiang Yin and Su He only waited for a short while before several policemen in uniform came over.
After questioning, Xiang Yin and Su He were released, but Xiang Yin always felt that a woman among the policemen was always watching her.
After looking back hesitantly, Xiang Yin took Su He out of the mall.
"Team Leader Gao? Do they have any problems?" A policeman saw Gao Yi staring at Xiang Yin and Su He who were leaving, and couldn't help but ask in confusion.
"No, it's okay." Gao Yi retracted his gaze, shook his head, and then began to look at the information about the dead people inside.
Gao Yi was one of the official personnel whom Xiang Yan and the others had met in the small world of the fire ghosts of Xuzhou High School.
As a member of the team in Province S that specializes in dealing with ghost incidents, Gao Yi would not have come if it was an ordinary case. The reason she came here was because ghosts were involved in this incident.
But I didn’t expect to meet Xiang Yan’s sister here.
Although they were required not to disturb Xiang Yan's family, they had still seen photos of Xiang Yan, Xiang Yin and Xiang Shi.
Because she was a little surprised that Xiang Yin was here, Gao Yi couldn't help but look at her twice more. Unexpectedly, Xiang Yin was so perceptive and noticed her gaze.
Should I say she is worthy of being Xiang Yan’s sister?
The brother has made great progress, and the sister is not far behind.
That's right, although Gao Yi and the others will not monitor Xiang Yan, the official is still aware of the ghost incidents Xiang Yan encountered during this period. After all, they are also afraid that some ghosts that they cannot deal with will suddenly appear and affect the people.
It is precisely because they understand him that they are surprised at Xiang Yan's progress.
Don't underestimate Xiang Yan's progress just because he is always protected by the ghost catcher Yi Yuan and the suddenly appearing Bai Jing whenever he encounters trouble.
It actually only took a short time for him to fall into a coma when he first encountered ghosts and monsters and then be able to use talismans to deal with them.
He has grown to this point in such a short time. If it weren't for the concern for Xiang Yan's relationship with the ghost catcher, Gao Yi and the others would have wanted to recruit Xiang Yan into their organization.
However, because they were not sure what the ghost thought of Xiang Yan, they did not dare to contact him for the time being.
Gao Yi put aside her thoughts about Xiang Yan, carefully looked at the identity information of the deceased, and then walked into the crime scene.
As soon as Gao Yi entered, he couldn't help but frowning. The scene inside was too shocking.
Even though Gao Yi knew that the ghost was ruthless, she still didn't expect that the ghost would be so cruel to the woman inside.
After carefully observing the surrounding environment, Gao Yi took out a compass. The compass started spinning wildly, and finally, the needle on the compass stopped in one direction.
The author has something to say: Spoiler alert, Xiang Yan will have contact with the authorities after this incident, after all, the authorities cannot be avoided.
Xiuzi knows that everyone wants the Ghost King to appear earlier, but we also have to give Xiaoyan a break for two days. After all, we can't encounter ghosts every day. So everyone wait a little bit, these two chapters will write about daily life, and then the Ghost King will make a shocking appearance.
