Chapter 92: Fingerprints on the Neck (1)



Bai Ningning did not move into the new house with them, saying that she wanted to wait for someone in the villa where she currently lived.

Chu Yuyan asked her if she was Qinghuai, and she said "a person".

He politely denied the claim, but didn't intend to tell them who it was.

Chu Ze wanted to ask a few more questions, but was pulled away by Chu Hanzhou and Chu Yuyan.

After getting in the car, Chu Ze was still unconvinced: "Why don't you let me ask?"

Chu Yuyan reminded: "She hasn't decided to move in with us yet."

Chu Hanzhou started the car silently, and the sound of the engine covered up the silence in the car.

Chu Ze was a little discouraged and muttered quietly: "Whether you come to live here or not, don't you have to work in the underworld? You'll see me everywhere..."

Chu Yuyan still had a mask-like smile on his face: "Why be so pessimistic? She didn't say she couldn't come."

Chu Hanzhou glanced at the circled address on the A4 paper.

This was the list of vacant rooms he had given Bai Ningning earlier. Bai Ningning circled one and hinted that they should keep quiet and just stay there quietly.

Chu Hanzhou asked, "Do you really not need to tell Xiaosen the address?"

Chu Yuyan's expression was calm, he closed his eyes and rested: "He doesn't have time to go home now."

"Too."

Inside the villa.

Bai Ningning was sitting on the sofa in the living room, with a mobile phone on the coffee table in front of her.

To be precise, she was not waiting for anyone, but waiting for news.

But maybe you can wait for a ghost.

She could understand Chu Hanzhou's feelings a little bit.

It's lonely at the top. When a random decision can determine the fate of most people, you have to be extra careful in everything you do.

It’s like this when running a company, and it’s also like this when being the King of Hell.

No one dares to believe it, but we have to distinguish the correct information from a large number of sources before making decisions.

After a while, Zhuo Yang sent her a message with an address.

She didn't turn off the lights, and treated the gate to the underworld as a portal to go to the address provided by Zhuo Yang.

A very simple single dormitory, about ten square meters, with only a bed, a wardrobe, a desk and a matching chair. It is so clean that it looks like a model room.

She believed that Zhuo Yang had lived here for some time, and the latter might have been planning to escape at any time, so he left no trace.

Zhuo Yang handed her a thick file bag and said, "This is the information you asked me to look up."

"You print it directly?" Bai Ningning opened it and took a look. It was a very thick stack of A4 paper with pictures and texts. It seemed to be in black, white and gray, but it looked clear enough.

"It's my own printer, don't worry, it won't leak any secrets." Zhuo Yang raised his eyebrows, feeling complacent, as if he had finally found an area where he could crush Bai Ningning, with a hint of provocation in his eyes.

Bai Ningning ignored his slight rebelliousness and asked, "What is the Zhuo family's attitude now?"

Zhuo Yang's face froze for a second, then he pretended to be calm and asked, "If you haven't made a decision yet, will the underworld take action against the Zhuo family?"

"The underworld is not an evil force." Bai Ningning complained speechlessly, thinking to herself, what misunderstandings do these people have about the underworld?

They are just a bunch of ordinary, fading little pitiful people.

Zhuo Yang thought for a moment and said, "I can't promise you the Zhuo family's attitude, but we will definitely stand on the side of the people of the world."

Bai Ningning instantly understood the so-called internal strife within the Zhuo family and said, "A radical, a moderate, and what else? An ambitious group? Wanting to seize power?"

"Yes, but not entirely." Zhuo Yang laughed after hearing her words. He seemed to relax suddenly, even sitting more relaxed. "I am now sure that at least you are not that terrifying as omnipotent and omniscient."

Bai Ningning glanced at him, her eyes devoid of warmth.

Zhuo Yang quickly raised his hands in surrender, but he didn't feel threatened. He smiled with a relaxed expression and said, "Don't worry, the information I gave you is correct."

Bai Ningning put the information back into the file bag without responding to his words.

"Being able to predict the future is actually a very terrifying thing." Zhuo Yang seemed to be explaining, but also seemed to be talking to himself. "If you know you're going to die soon, how can you be free of resentment?"

Bai Ningning didn't respond and reminded him to get to the point: "What's going on with the Zhuo family?"

Zhuo Yang: "I belong to the moderate faction. There are two types of radicals. One wants the metaphysical world to replace the underworld and believes that ghosts should not exist in this world. The other thinks that the metaphysical world should not exist. When there are too many people, they will become wild and always think about maximizing their own interests. To be more precise, they all want to seize power."

He cleared his throat, making his voice hoarse, as if imitating someone's tone: "People's hearts are easily polluted by power, money, and sex. It's contagious, it becomes dirty, and it will become corrupted."

Bai Ningning remained noncommittal about this view and asked, "What is the policy of the moderates?"

"I really can't fool you." Zhuo Yang lowered his head and smiled faintly, "Or rather, we are tolerant, and you can also understand us as fence-sitters."

Bai Ningning: "Hmm?"

Zhuo Yang said: "No matter what the world becomes, we will accept it."

Bai Ningning asked, "Does this only represent your personal attitude, or does the old man behind you also have this attitude?"

"It's the same attitude." Zhuo Yang was stunned for a moment, pursed his lips, and hurriedly corrected his previous words, "But our common goal is peace in the world. We don't care who has the final say. What matters is that demons and monsters don't cause trouble in the world."

Bai Ningning remained indifferent and made no comment on his patch.

She said: "This world needs ghosts, otherwise during the Qingming Festival, where will everyone's thoughts and wishes go?"

Zhuo Yang couldn't follow her train of thought at all. He was stunned for a moment before realizing that she was refuting the Zhuo family's idea of ​​wanting to replace the underworld and hope that there would be no ghosts in the world.

Bai Ningning's phone vibrated slightly. She lowered her eyes, casually holding the file bag in one hand and operating the phone with the other, as if chatting casually: "Being able to predict death is not a bad thing. Not everyone wants to escape it. Some people are even willing to die on their own initiative."

After she finished speaking, she left through the gate of the underworld.

The ten-square-meter room was empty and tidy as ever, with no signs of habitation or visitors.

Zhuo Yang looked at the empty imitation wood desk, wondering what Bai Ningning meant.

On the surface, he did not show any dissatisfaction, but he openly and covertly refuted the Zhuo family's ideas.

Is she satisfied with his speech? What is her attitude towards the Zhuo family?

He won’t implicate the old man, right?

Zhuo Yang looked at the cold and empty table, and became more and more confused.

Bai Ningning's phone vibrated, and it was the person she was waiting for tonight.

She connected the villa's surveillance system to her mobile phone, and the phone would vibrate whenever someone appeared in the camera.

The living room light was still on, but no one was there.

Her surveillance camera was not aimed at the inside of the villa, but was hidden under the eaves outside the villa, and aimed at the aisle outside the villa's wall.

She observed here for a while and found it normal for cars to pass by outside, and it was also normal for people walking their dogs to pass by.

But few people hike this route alone.

Anyone passing by at this time is suspicious.

The surveillance video shows the face of an unfamiliar passerby. The face is very ordinary and has no features. It would be easily lost among passersby.

Even when she looked away, she forgot what this person looked like.

Bai Ningning took a screenshot and saved it on her phone. After thinking about it, she sent one to Zhuo Yang and Yuan Muyang respectively, asking them if they knew this person.

Zhuo Yang responded quickly, saying he had never seen it, but he could help check it out.

Bai Ningning said there was no need to check specifically and the photos should not be seen by others.

Zhuo Yang quickly realized he couldn't remember the man's face, and said to Bai Ningning, "He must be from the metaphysical world. We really can't investigate too deeply, as it would easily alert the enemy."

Bai Ningning withdrew the pictures she sent to both people at the same time.

Zhuo Yang said in surprise that he had not saved the picture yet. Bai Ningning replied with a period and ignored him.

Just confirm that it is from the metaphysical world.

She probably knew who sent them.

Yuan Muyang seemed to have just seen the message and asked a question.

Bai Ningning asked him how he was doing.

Yuan Muyang: "Not very good."

Yuan Muyang: "But it's better than I imagined."

Bai Ningning: "Are you alone now?"

Yuan Muyang: "Yes."

Yuan Muyang: "I was reading a book just now and didn't pay much attention to my phone."

Bai Ningning stopped chatting with him and asked him to clear his message history and come to her if he had any questions.

Several times it showed that the other party was "typing", but Bai Ningning waited for a long time and only got a "OK", which could be regarded as the electronic version of being hesitant to speak.

No matter what, the Yuan family is a big family in the world of metaphysics with many disciples. Even if the head of the family dies and the young head loses his spiritual power, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse.

This is just the painful period. As long as Xu Wanhui and the Shi Yu sisters are still there, we can most likely overcome the crisis.

She cannot appear in Qingwei Mountain for the time being, and she has to avoid the people in Qingwei Mountain.

She sat in the living room for a while, then washed up and went back to her room to sleep as usual.

Almost as soon as she fell asleep, Lord Ghost King appeared in her room by coincidence.

Her room was also empty, with not many signs of life, but it didn't look like a model room, more like a large hotel suite.

Moonlight sneaked into the room through the gap in the curtains, and the cold white light fell on Bai Ningning's face.

Qing Huai sat beside her bed, his hand gently caressing her neck, his eyes full of tenderness as he whispered, "Why?"

He exerted a little force, but Bai Ningning was still sleeping peacefully, with a sense of peace on her face that made him jealous and a little relieved.

He raised his hand, fingers spread, palm up, and held it out into the moonlight.

This hand is white and slender, and looks like a lustrous jade under the moonlight. It is a carefully carved art relic from thousands of years ago.

There was no burning sensation on the fingertips, and no discomfort on the body, which meant that there was no backlash.

He lowered his head to look at the girl's neck on the bed. It was hidden in the shadows where the moonlight could not reach. It was white, tender and delicate, and looked extremely fragile, as if it could be broken with just a little force.

In the cold bluish-white color, there are five black-purple dots distributed on both sides, one on the left and four on the right, with different shades.

This is the pinch mark he just left.

Did you go to the underworld?

No, she was not in this state when she went to the underworld. Her breathing would be shallower and her face would be paler, as if she was in a state of suspended animation.

The girl in front of him was breathing steadily, she was just asleep.

Qing Huai noticed that the amulets she usually posted at the door and windows had been taken down.

"Who are you waiting for?" Qing Huai asked in a low voice.

He looked at the curtains that let in a ray of moonlight and considered whether he should use his ghost energy to seal the doors and windows for her.

As soon as he stood up, the girl on the bed moved.

Qinghuai stopped, narrowed his eyes filled with moonlight, and waited to confront her.

Maybe she would be angry that he broke into her room at night, or she might say "You're here?" as if she had expected it, or there might be other reactions that he could not have guessed.

Her train of thought has always been difficult to guess.

But Bai Ningning didn't wake up. She just turned over and slept on her side, and kicked the doll at the end of the bed away in a very restless manner.

It was a small doll about 20 centimeters long, probably given by the Chu family. She didn't know where to put it, so she just put it on the bed. When she wasn't paying attention, the doll merged with the quilt.

The doll rolled twice on the ground and landed at Qinghuai's feet.

The kind ghost picked up the doll for her and placed it on the bedside. He leaned over and whispered in her ear, "You'd better pretend to be asleep."

Bai Ningning, who was in a deep sleep, did not react at all, but Mr. Gui felt extremely pleased.

He covered her with the quilt again and bent down to kiss her ear.

"You seem to be welcoming me."

Bai Ningning felt that she had a very rare good sleep. She was able to sleep until she woke up naturally. After waking up, she didn't have to worry about encountering people who came to report when she went out, and no one was waiting for her to have breakfast.

She stayed in bed for a while longer, and only after she was fully awake did she slowly change her clothes and get up to wash.

When she stood in front of the mirror, she realized that having a good night's sleep was just her subjective assumption and did not exist objectively.

There were five black spots on her neck. What was going on? There were four on one side. She gestured with her hand—could these be fingerprints?!

He was able to sneak into her room quietly in the middle of the night without alerting the villa's layers of security systems and various spell formations.

Qinghuai could indeed teleport to her side.

Bai Ningning looked carefully in the mirror. Was it just a pinch mark on her neck? Did she do anything strange?

After confirming that there was nothing, she breathed a sigh of relief.

But the mark on my neck looks so ambiguous no matter how I look at it. How can I face people like this?

Bai Ningning groaned - Qinghuai was a ghost, and the marks he pinched meant that his spirit body was probably still in its state. Now he couldn't even go to the underworld!

How embarrassing it would be for the King of Hell to have claw marks left on his neck by a ghost, right?

What if someone is so blind as to mistake this for a ghost-grown strawberry? Wouldn’t that be even more disastrous?

Bai Ningning opened the browser and typed in the search box: What should I do if there are traces left by ghosts on my body?

As soon as I finished typing, I felt like there was something wrong with my brain. I long-pressed the delete key to delete all of them and turned off the phone screen.

No normal person would search for something like this!

Bai Ningning cursed in her heart, took out a scarf, and prepared to go to the colder places in the north to catch ghosts and vent her anger.

Just as I was about to leave, I received a message from Chu Yuyan: "Are you awake? The chef is waiting at the door."

Bai Ningning: “?”

She checked the surveillance video and confirmed that it was a familiar chef before letting him in.

The chef seemed to have received a large tip. When Bai Ningning opened the door, he smiled broadly. After saying good morning, he went to the kitchen as if he was familiar with the place and started making breakfast.

Bai Ningning is not particular about food. When you ask her what she wants to eat, the answer she usually gets is "whatever, anything is fine."

After asking twice, the chef wisely stopped asking.

Bai Ningning sat down at the dining table and began to check the figures captured by the surveillance camera yesterday.

The surveillance camera did not record Qing Huai. Firstly, there was no surveillance camera in her room. Secondly, even if it did record it, it would most likely be affected by the ghost energy and the screen would be black.

There were no suspicious people outside the villa last night, only a suspicious vehicle that drove past the door at around 2:40 in the morning.

It was a black luxury car of a brand she didn't recognize. She sent the picture and license plate number to Chu Yuyan and asked him to check it out.

Bai Ningning: "Someone passed by the door around 3 a.m. and looked suspicious. He might be from the metaphysical world. Don't make a big fuss about it."

Chu Yuyan didn't ask any more questions and quickly replied with the word "received".

The chef served her the drink first and asked in confusion, "Why are you wearing so much?"

Bai Ningning also felt a little hot after hearing what she said. She took off her heavy long down coat and said, "I was planning to leave for the north."

The chef understood immediately: "It's really cold over there. Your ears will freeze off when you get off the plane."

Bai Ningning nodded lightly, and when she saw that the other party didn't ask any more questions, she breathed a sigh of relief.

The scarf was still wrapped tightly around my neck, which made me feel a bit hot and a bit inconvenient.

The chef leaves as soon as he finishes cooking without asking any further questions.

Bai Ningning also sent a message to Chu Yuyan: "No need to call the chef from now on, I can handle it myself."

Chu Yuyan asked, "Why are you going north all of a sudden?"

Bai Ningning: “…”

Good job, cook.

She was sold so quickly.

Bai Ningning just glossed over it and said that she had something to do.

Unexpectedly, Chu Yuyan had a keen intuition and went straight to the point: "What's wrong with your neck?"

Bai Ningning: “…”

If I had known this earlier, I would have learned makeup from the teacher when I was on the crew.

She should always have some cosmetics at home.

It was too late to do anything now, so Bai Ningning had to try another trick: "I'll come find you tomorrow. Don't worry, it's really okay."

She ate her breakfast slowly, but in her mind she was thinking about how to catch Qing Huai and give him a beating.

Not to mention Qinghuai, the ghosts of the Ghost Alliance have disappeared recently and cannot be caught at all.

Bai Ningning asked the Xuanwei where the most haunted places were recently, preferably in the northern cities.

Lu Sifeng quickly provided her with a color-coded map and gave her instructions: "Red areas are the most haunted, followed by orange."

Bai Ningning took a quick look and found that most of them were white safe areas. If you only looked at the area, there were actually very few seriously haunted areas, but there were quite a lot of small red dots.

Lu Sifeng added, "There's been an ice and snow festival in Snow City lately, and it's been really haunted."

Lu Sifeng wanted to continue telling her that it was for this reason that some people from the metaphysical community had recently been exorcising ghosts in Snow City, but the underworld wanted to use it as a training ground, so the Metaphysical Committee did not organize anyone to go.

She had just typed two words when someone suddenly informed her that Yun Youshun was showing signs of waking up.

"Here I come."

Lu Sifeng thought about it. After all, Bai Ningning is the representative of the underworld. She should know about the training of new people in the underworld, right?

Bai Ningning arrived at Snow City fully armed, just to practice her courage and catch two ghosts to ask how to remove the ghost seal.

It was difficult to catch ghosts in broad daylight, so she wandered around Snow City, where there was snow all year round and a strong festive atmosphere.

In a world of ice and snow covered in silver, slogans of "Ice and Snow Festival" are everywhere. Snowmen and ice sculptures can be seen on the roadside, some of which are very delicate and some are very childish.

The biggest feeling is cold.

Even though I wore a hat, earmuffs, and a scarf, covering everything except my eyes, I still felt cold.

Chu Hanzhou doesn't have a house here, but there is a hotel owned by his company, and there is a five-star suite reserved for him all year round.

Bai Ningning walked around outside and felt her legs were numb from the cold. She wanted to return to the warmth.

In a blink of an eye, I saw the dejected-looking hedgehog-headed man and the stern-looking "headmaster" with a cross scar on his face.

Hedgehog Head wore gray earmuffs and no hat. His hair was stubborn and rebellious, standing straight up with some frost on it.

Yan Tongzheng was in an even more miserable state. His entire face was red from the cold, and his ears were turning purple. He would soon get frostbite.

Although he was wearing a black coat, it was not enough to look good in this snowy weather.

Bai Ningning stared at them for a few seconds, making sure that Bai Xue was not hallucinating because she had been looking at them for too long.

How come the person I met at the Xuan Committee meeting is here?

Moreover, during the meeting, the two people sat a little far away from each other and didn't seem to be very familiar with each other.

The hedgehog-head noticed her gaze and glared at her fiercely: "What are you looking at?"

This guy is a thorn in the side during meetings.

Bai Ningning looked past him and asked Yan Tongzheng: "Do you need help?"

Yan Tongzheng shook his head, thanked him, and prepared to leave.

The hedgehog-headed man stared at her for a while and asked, "Are you Bai Ningning?"

When Yan Tongzheng heard the familiar name, he walked back quickly and stared at Bai Ningning with burning eyes.

Bai Ningning didn't expect that she could be recognized. She choked a little and asked, "...What's wrong?"

The gloom on Hedgehog Head's face was swept away. As if he had met a savior, he happily pulled her sleeve to stop her from leaving and shouted, "Help us quickly——"

“…”

Bai Ningning glanced at his rude hand.

The air conditioning is leaking in!

It doesn't look like he needs help.

The hedgehog-haired man was embarrassed, but he refused to let go. He turned around and grabbed her arm, blowing a dry rainbow fart: "Kind and kind-hearted Miss Ningning, it's a matter of saving my life."

Bai Ningning: "Can't find a place to stay?"

Hedgehog Head laughed: "As expected of Ningning, the fortune teller!"

"Come with me." Bai Ningning shrank her neck due to the cold wind. She was so cold, but he still had to waste time trying to get close to her in the snow.

I really don't know what to prioritize.

Bai Ningning led them quickly into the hotel and complained slowly, "What was that weird name you just gave me?"

"Didn't you watch your own variety show?" The hedgehog-head leaned back slightly, hunched his neck, and continued in a muffled voice, "It's the 'Haunted House Adventure' you recorded. The title given to you by the production team often contains such fancy words."

Bai Ningning: “…”

It turns out it has already been broadcast.

Bai Ningning asked him: "What's your name?"

"Zhong Shuo." The hedgehog-haired man was a little unhappy, "How come you don't even remember my name?"

Bai Ningning didn't bother to pay attention to him and silently quickened her pace.

Yan Tongzheng was very modest. He thought she probably couldn't remember him, so he was about to introduce himself: "My name is..."

"Yan Tongzheng, I know." Bai Ningning nodded calmly, "We have had contact."

Zhong Shuo was even more unhappy: "Why do you only remember him and not me? After all, I was sitting next to you. There was a name tag on the table, right?"

Bai Ningning replied casually: "Really? I forgot."

Zhong Shuo stopped and said in a huff that he would not go with her.

But Bai Ningning acted as if she didn't hear anything, and walked forward with big strides, not paying any attention to him at all.

Yan Tongzheng looked back at him worriedly.

Zhong Shuo was bored and trotted to catch up, trying to save face: "Forget it, I am a magnanimous person and will not argue with you. I am only with you because I am worried about Uncle Yan."

Bai Ningning ignored him and was busy looking at the comments, searching for the correct answer.

I roughly know that they heard that this place is seriously haunted and came here to catch ghosts.

In addition, several comments mentioned that there would be "something good to come" later, but they did not mention who it would be. Bai Ningning could only wait and see.

Bai Ningning took them to the hotel and booked a suite for them using a credit card.

When Yan Tongzheng saw the luxurious entrance of the hotel, he wanted to reject her kindness, probably to express that he could not afford to stay there and could not pay the hotel fees.

Bai Ningning spoke before he could, her face cold: "Shut up, follow me, I have something to ask you."

Yan Tongzheng was frightened by her aura for a moment and had to follow her.

Zhong Shuo was dumbfounded: "Uncle Yan, why are you so hypocritical? I just said I'd live here and pay the rent, but you refused."

After entering the elevator, Zhong Shuo was still mumbling, "I came to ask before, and they clearly said there were no rooms. What a double standard world..."

The attendant who pressed the elevator button for them explained, "There really are no rooms left. There are so many guests attending the Ice and Snow Festival."

Bai Ningning looked at the elevator floor and guessed that the room being used was also the one that the Chu family had reserved in advance. She said, "I reserved it in advance. Is there a problem?"

Zhong Shuo was dumbfounded: "You're not just bringing us in for questioning and then kicking us out, are you?"

"Yeah." She deliberately agreed with him.

But unexpectedly, Yan Tongzheng breathed a sigh of relief.

[These two people are so deceiving. Didn't they realize that Ningning's room was newly opened and they didn't register it? ]

[Those who are not easy to cheat will not come to Snow City]

The waiter smiled and took them to the room without exposing Bai Ningning's prank.

After entering the suite, Zhong Shuo found it very large and immediately opened the suitcase to take out his clothes: "I'll take you here to take a shower, do you mind?"

"Mind." Bai Ningning brought the person back, "Answer me a few questions first."

"Stingy." Zhong Shuo muttered and sulked to himself.

Bai Ningning asked: "What are you doing here?"

Zhong Shuo was annoyed: "This place is seriously haunted, and the Xuan Committee doesn't care, so Uncle Yan and I came here. I just didn't expect that we couldn't book a room at all."

He glared at Bai Ningning after he finished speaking: "Can you at least pour me a cup of hot water? I'm freezing to death!"

Bai Ningning gave them two bottles of mineral water, room temperature mineral water.

Zhong Shuo repeated word by word: "I want hot water."

Yan Tongzheng didn't despise him and gave him face. He took the water and gulped it down. He nudged Zhong Shuo with his elbow and said, "It's warm when you drink it."

Ningning did this on purpose, didn't she? If he gave her hot water, Yan Tongzheng might be too embarrassed to drink it.

[Uncle is really old-fashioned]

When Zhong Shuo got angry, he was willing to smooth things over for his own good.

[The pairing of these two is quite interesting]

Zhong Shuo glanced at him sideways and said with great determination: "No! Drink!"

Bai Ningning ignored him and asked Yan Tongzheng: "What are your plans next?"

Yan Tongzheng said, “After the sun goes down, we’ll go check out the haunted place.”

Bai Ningning asked: "Are there many people coming to catch ghosts?"

"Not many, just the two of us."

Bai Ningning nodded with relief.

Yan Tongzheng took the initiative to share information with her: "I heard that Xueli is active in this area. He is a leader of the Ghost Alliance and is on the same level as Feng Huai... I heard that you have contacted Feng Huai."

"Okay, got it."

Bai Ningning vaguely remembered hearing the name Xue Li from the old tree.

Geng Yiyi also told her roughly that she was a female ghost who appeared and disappeared mysteriously, had a weird personality, liked to dress up, and might be COSing as the Snow Girl recently.

The indoor heating was turned on very high, so the two people who were freezing didn't feel it; but Bai Ningning soon felt hot.

She stood up to leave and reminded him, "Don't take a shower within half an hour, otherwise the frostbite will easily become necrotic due to the sudden change of temperature."

When she reached the door, she glanced at Yan Tongzheng's shoes again. They were a pair of very ordinary sneakers that were soaked.

Bai Ningning: "What size shoes do you wear?"

Yan Tongzheng waved his hands repeatedly: "Don't bother."

Bai Ningning glanced at him coldly, and her eyes clearly said: Don't waste my time.

"43 yards."

Yan Tongzheng immediately said it honestly, and nudged Zhong Shuo with his elbow. Seeing that he didn't respond, and fearing that Bai Ningning would get impatient, he quickly said for him, "He wears size 42."

Bai Ningning nodded and said, "Someone will bring you shoes in a while. Here's the room card, remember to take it with you when you go out. If you don't understand, you can ring the bell and ask someone. I don't live here, and I've paid for a week's room, so you can do whatever you want."

She walked out the door after she finished speaking, not giving the two people in the room time to react.

Zhong Shuo was completely dumbfounded and asked, "Uncle Yan, what do you think she meant?"

Bai Ningning was very thoughtful. Soon the waiter brought them thick snow boots and a well-fitting military coat.

Zhong Shuo stopped the waiter and asked, "Where's Bai Ningning? She's the lady who booked a room for us and asked you to deliver the clothes."

The waiter just smiled and said, "Sorry, I don't know. Is there anything else I can help you with?"

Zhong Shuo asked again: "Can you give me her contact information? I have something to discuss with her."

The waiter declined: "Sorry, we cannot disclose customer privacy."

Zhong Shuo felt like he had been looking for trouble all day, and he was so angry that his teeth were itching. He asked again, "Can you help me tell her a message?"

"I suggest you find her yourself." The waiter was completely unmoved.

Zhong Shuo: "...Okay, thank you."

“I wish you a happy life.”

The waiter smiled and left in the elevator.

Zhong Shuo was so angry that he buried his head in the pillow: "I seem to be particularly unlucky today!"

Yan Tongzheng corrected him, saying, "Extremely lucky."

He is like a savior who came from heaven when you were in desperate situation. How can you say that he is unlucky?

Although the savior did not give them a chance to thank them.

He actually felt embarrassed to stay here for a long time, but Bai Ningning had already paid for it, and he couldn't help feeling that he was wasting someone else's kindness.

Zhong Shuo climbed back onto the sofa and sat down, then asked, "She seems like a nice person, but why is her attitude so bad?"

"Is it bad? Not really."

Zhong Shuo: “…”

No one could understand his distress, so he picked up the mineral water, unscrewed it, and drank it.

After Bai Ningning returned to her room, she received a diagram of the formation sent by Yuan Muyang: "Improved version, this one is simpler, consumes less energy, and uses less materials."

The other party drew the drawing by hand, then took a photo and sent it to her, so the edges and corners were not clear.

Yuan Muyang sent another message: "It will be placed on the second shelf of the bookshelf, in the usual place, tucked inside a file bag."

Bai Ningning replied with a "received" and reminded him to clear the message.

Yuan Muyang asked: "Are you worried about a traitor?"

His question was too direct, and Bai Ningning didn't know how to answer for a moment.

The other party sent a message, and she was not sure if there was anyone around Yuan Muyang.

Or maybe Yuan Muyang was testing her and deliberately setting a trap to lure her into it.

Yuan Muyang: "I seem to be being targeted recently."

Yuan Muyang: "Clear, don't reply."

When this message finally came out, Bai Ningning was sure that it was him who had just sent the message, and that he was most likely on the same side as her.

Bai Ningning pulled the scarf around her neck, but unfortunately she couldn't see anyone right now.

The two dedicated metaphysical masters next door were ready to go out as soon as the sun went down. She liked to be lazy and it was so cold outside.

She slept in the comfortable heated room for the whole afternoon and waited until midnight before going out again.

In winter, the days are always short and the nights are long.

For things that cannot see the light, winter is the best season of the year.

Creatures that are not cold-tolerant need to hibernate, but ghosts do not.

Ghosts can't sense temperature, so they like winter.

The night in the snow is very different from the day.

During the day, someone shovels the snow, so the road is basically clean, but at night the snow accumulates, and you don’t know how deep it is when you step on it, and you have no idea what you will step on.

Suddenly, I walked onto the frozen lake. I didn't step on air and fall into the water, but I almost slipped on the ice.

Bai Ningning sighed, and the hot air she exhaled met the cold air, instantly forming a white mist.

This is simply the home of ghosts, no wonder it is so haunted.

Ghosts are not afraid of the cold and can float without worrying about slipping on the ice or snow soaking their shoes.

Bai Ningning followed her feeling and walked towards the direction where the ghostly aura was strong.

The further away from the residential area, the thicker the snow.

The heavy snow was still falling in front of her eyes. Bai Ningning shook off the snow on her body, and was glad that the soles of her shoes were thick enough and her pants were made of waterproof material.

After a while, a soul with ice-blue twin tails appeared before his eyes.

Bai Ningning: “…”

Gu Bozhi's wandering soul.

You came at a really bad time.

The other person suddenly appeared, staring at Bai Ningning with wide eyes and curiosity: "Why are you here? Am I in your dream?"

"Yes, I was sleepwalking." Bai Ningning casually answered and flicked it back.

Gu Bozhi instantly returned to his body, woke up for a moment, and then continued to dream.

After Bai Ningning dealt with this little episode, she discovered that there was indeed a gray-blue translucent female ghost in front of her.

She was wearing a veil on her head - probably a light ghostly illusion, and a thick white dress with ice and snow patterns on her body, as if she was really COSing as a snow girl.

I can't see her face clearly, but just looking at her outline I think she is a beauty.

The wind and snow got stronger. Bai Ningning silently wore her scarf and hat tighter and decided to buy a pair of ski goggles tomorrow.

Xue Li, who is pretending to be a snow girl, is still pretending to be aloof, and she exudes the cold and frosty temperament of a high-class flower.

Bai Ningning took the initiative to talk: "I heard that the Snow Girl will break up couples who are in a cold relationship."

Xue Li stared at her silently.

Bai Ningning only showed two smiling eyes, and she said in a light tone: "But I don't have a lover, why did you appear in front of me?"

Xue Li spoke, his voice as if coming from the horizon, ethereal and distant: "They can also freeze people into ice sculptures and then eat them."

"Then you are quite brave."

Bai Ningning simply stated the facts.

Even the King of Hell wants to eat it, he is too bold.

[It's still unclear who will eat whom.]

[Yay! Beautiful girl posts, I love seeing them!]

The wind and snow suddenly changed direction, and the strong wind wrapped in flying snow suddenly attacked Bai Ningning from the direction of Xue Li.

Bai Ningning quickly raised her hands to cover her eyes and could not see anything.

There was snow all around, no one was around, and very few buildings.

Even if Bai Ningning was really frozen into an ice sculpture here, she might not be discovered tomorrow.

Bai Ningning felt that the desert and snow might be the home territories of ghosts. They had environmental advantages. As long as the ghost energy blew, sand and snow could become their weapons.

Bai Ningning was just pretending to be defeated. She was waiting for Xue Li to get closer.

Then use the Four Seasons Chart of the Hell Realm to capture her.

Who knew that before Xue Li arrived, he encountered another even stronger ghost aura.

Suddenly the wind stopped and the snow stopped.

"Greetings to His Majesty the Ghost King."

Xue Li was furious for a moment, but hid it very well. She immediately turned into a cold and aloof ice beauty and bowed deeply in the direction of Bai Ningning.

Bai Ningning put down her hands that were protecting her eyes and realized that the snow had not stopped and was still falling, but it was not falling towards her.

Qinghuai's ghostly aura formed an invisible barrier above her head.

She looked back and saw that Qinghuai's expression was not very good, and his ghostly aura was quite agitated, as if he was angry.

The next moment, Qinghuai's ghostly aura attacked Xueli without any explanation, with extremely strong hostility, and it was obvious that he had the intention to kill.

In a hurry, Bai Ningning threw out the Yanjie Four Seasons Chronicle and seized Xue Li before Qing Huai.
