As a fake half-demon, Yue Jiuling feels that living in the human realm is actually pretty good. However, this is only true if she can retrieve her original body and separated soul. There's no c...

Chapter 213 Catching Ghosts

"Xiao Yi? What are you doing here?"

When the girl chasing the female ghost heard Mu Xiaoyi's shout and turned to look at them, she was also surprised.

But after she paused for a moment, she discovered that the beautiful ghost had disappeared.

"Hey, wait a minute," the girl Mu Xiaoyi called 'Hanako' suddenly put her finger to her lips and whistled after discovering that the beautiful ghost had disappeared. A few seconds later, a very tall and strong wolfhound ran out from the intersection where she had just come from!

The large wolfhound was clearly owned by a girl; it was exceptionally large, and if it stood up, it would probably be as tall as an adult.

As soon as it ran out, it wagged its tail excitedly at the girl, and when it saw Mu Xiaoyi and the others, it didn't show any wariness, so it seemed that it recognized Mu Xiaoyi and the others.

When the big wolfhound, panting with its tongue lolling out, approached her, the girl gently stroked its head and said, "Go on, Big Black, you should remember that ghost's scent. Go and bring her back to me!"

"Woof~"

The large wolfhound seemed to understand its master's command. After barking, it wagged its big tail and quickly chased after the direction the female ghost had just run.

Seeing that the dog had gone to help chase the ghost, the girl finally had a chance to walk up to Yue Jiuling and the others and said, "I was chasing a female ghost just now. Weren't you supposed to be guarding the gates of hell today? What are you doing here?"

Upon hearing her question, Mu Xiaoyi replied, "Yes, we're going to eat now, and then we'll be on guard duty. Have you eaten? Do you want to come along?"

Hanako, who hadn't eaten yet, immediately agreed: "Okay, let's go together then."

When they went out to eat together, the girl explained why she had gone to catch ghosts.

Actually, this girl's name is Hua Li. Her family is quite famous in the metaphysics circle, and she is also best friends with Mu Xiaoyi, so Yue Jiuling and the others know Hua Li.

As for why she chased after that alluring female ghost, Hua Li said that she actually encountered the ghost while walking her dog. However, when she met the ghost, the ghost was trying to 'solilate' a man, and the man had already been seduced by her beauty and was about to become her customer.

So when Hua Li saw this, he immediately decided to act on behalf of Heaven and released the big wolfhound to deal with that beautiful female ghost!

Unexpectedly, that beautiful female ghost was so cunning. When she saw the Taoist priest and the big wolfhound trying to catch her, she tore her clothes as she ran and scattered them along the way, making it difficult for the wolfhound, which was following her by scent, to catch her accurately.

"Ugh~ I'm so angry! If it weren't dark and there weren't many people who could see her, everyone would have thought some crazy woman was shamelessly taking off her clothes in the street!"

Hua Li said angrily, biting into a piece of braised pork.

They were eating in an ordinary restaurant now. After listening to Hua Li's words, Mu Xiaoyi said helplessly, "You know she's a lewd ghost, but have you ever heard of a lewd ghost who knows shame?"

"That's right, alright, don't be angry anymore. We can just teach her a lesson when we catch her."

Yue Jiuling was also trying to persuade Hua Li, saying, "But did this beautiful ghost only die recently? I remember when the gates of hell opened, no beautiful ghosts came out."

In fact, most of the "beauty ghosts" are female ghosts. The reason they are called "beauty ghosts" is not only because they are shameless as ghosts, but also because they were promiscuous women in life.

Many beautiful ghosts, after becoming ghosts, still like to go to the human world to harm the living, especially men. The ghost world has a relatively strict management of beautiful ghosts, which is why Yue Jiuling said that this beautiful ghost must have died recently.

"I don't know, but maybe," Hua Li mumbled as she ate her rice. "By the way, don't you guys have a function that can find out information about ghosts before they died? Why don't you help me find out when she died?"

Because the management staff had to go help guard the gate, the ghost realm temporarily lent them the ability to access ghost information.

Knowing that Hua Li wanted to find out more about the female ghost, Mu Xiaoyi nodded and said, "Sure, once Da Hei brings her back, we'll take a look for you."

Yue Jiuling also said, "Yes, while this function of ours is still usable, we can't waste it."

Ye Dongfeng and Ya Zi were actually acquaintances with Hua Li, since they all worked in the same circle, so it was normal for them to know each other.

Ye Dongfeng said, "How about this? Anyway, your Dahei isn't coming back anytime soon. Why don't you just go with Xiaoyi and the others to guard the gate later?"

"That's right, this will save a lot of time, and you can also send that ghost to the ghost realm along with it."

Hidden also agreed.

Bai Xinyu also took Hua Li's hand and said, "Yeah, since you're free anyway, why don't you just work overtime with us?"

Hua Li hadn't actually planned to go out that night, but because of this situation, she agreed: "Alright, although I always feel like you guys just want me to be your free laborer, but what can I do? I'm such a nice person~"

Upon hearing her words, Yue Jiuling immediately burst out laughing. In fact, Hua Li was not wrong. The group did indeed intend to ask Hua Li for help. Because they were afraid that the evening would be busy, they wanted to form a group to trick people into becoming free laborers.
