"Ha~, you're so scared your teeth are chattering, but you're still being stubborn."
Sigh, just the fact that the house is considered haunted is enough to scare her like this. If she knew there were several ghosts in the house, she would probably faint.
"Hua Bao, you need to know that sometimes people are more terrifying than ghosts. Take the Chen family, for example. They treat human life like dirt and trample on it at will. The people of the entire Ye County turn pale at the mere mention of their name. Aren't they more terrifying than demons?"
As Mo Lan spoke, she looked up and gently patted Hua Bao's head, offering her some comfort and encouragement.
It's a good opportunity to give the little girl some courage.
She had a premonition that she would spend even more time with ghosts in the future.
"The boss is right. There is an insurmountable boundary between the living and the dead. Strictly speaking, ghosts are afraid of people. Even if you accidentally meet them, ghosts will run away first."
Yin and Yang are always two relative extremes; one lives at night, and the other lives during the day. They are already distinguished by their habits.
Like ice and fire, although they are incompatible, once they collide, it is always the ice that melts first.
The same applies to humans and ghosts; when the two collide, the ghost is the weaker party.
Because yang energy can dissipate yin energy, but at the same time, they also counterbalance each other.
This is the wonder of creation, which cannot be broken, otherwise things will inevitably turn into their opposites.
“Young Miss, you’re right. I’m not afraid. If I haven’t done anything wrong, I’m not afraid of ghosts knocking at my door…” Silence was enough. Hua Bao’s face turned red as she suddenly looked up.
"Sweetie~, even if there are demons and monsters, they'll avoid us when they see how brave and cute our Hua Bao is." Mo Lan rarely softened her tone and coaxed her. "Once you've become brave enough, how about I take you to travel around the world?"
"Travel to various countries?" The thought of being able to travel around with the young lady often filled him with excitement, and the fear in his eyes was instantly replaced by joy.
"Yeah, what's so fun about staying in our mountain village? Once I get to know people better, I'll definitely go out more often."
Mo Lan looked at the little girl's shining eyes and chuckled softly, a rare occurrence for her.
After calming the little girl down, the two of them tidied up the room so that it was barely habitable.
We ate something simple, and then the sun completely set.
It's unclear how the tomb spirit did it, but with a gust of wind, Mo Lan felt the surrounding temperature drop slightly.
"The ghost has arrived?"
“Yes, boss, you can see them too if you concentrate. It’s a coincidence that these three originally lived in this courtyard. The fact that they’ve stayed for so many years suggests they have some connection with this courtyard. The longer they remain as ghosts, the fainter their memories of their past lives become. They’ve almost completely forgotten them.”
The spirit of the tomb relayed the information it had received to Mo Lan.
Following the tomb spirit's prompting, Mo Lan subconsciously focused her gaze and, sure enough, saw several blurry shadows floating a few steps ahead.
It didn't look like I imagined. Apart from the air being a bit chilly, it wasn't scary.
The three shadows drifted gently like ripples on water. After seeing it with her own eyes, Mo Lan quickly accepted the fact that there were ghosts around her.
"Just let them protect Hua Bao's safety, and don't worry about the rest."
After dinner, Mo Lan gave Hua Bao some sleep aid medication, so she should have a good night's sleep.
Tomb spirits and ghost spirits are of the same kind, and there are no obstacles to communication between them.
"Take good care of this girl and don't let anyone hurt her. I'll send you to reincarnation later."
"Thank you, Spirit One."
Upon hearing the tomb spirit's promise, the three summoned ghosts rippled with emotion and bowed respectfully.
