Chapter 47: The Breath-Eating Ghost Haunts Zhang

Ming This was the first time Zhang Ming had encountered such a thing. Originally, Gu Qi had a bad memory and had forgotten Zhang Ming several times, so Zhang Ming had already decided to find it strange.

But now, she actually said that she didn't know who she was. What was going on?

Looking at Gu Qi's tears and fearful look, Zhang Ming thought that she must not be joking. Did she really forget herself?

"You...you are Gu Qi, remember?" Zhang Ming said softly.

Gu Qi frowned and said, "Gu Qi...my name is Gu Qi, yes, I am Gu Qi, I remember."

Gu Qi smiled, just like a girl who just woke up from a nightmare and found that it was a dream, and then felt relieved.

Seeing Gu Qi like this, Zhang Ming also breathed a sigh of relief.

Although this girl is a bit of a swindler in business, she is still very cute.

Especially the scene just now, her pitiful look of not being able to remember who she is, makes people feel distressed.

"Do you remember it?" Zhang Ming asked, wanting to confirm.

Gu Qi nodded, smiled and said to Zhang Ming: "I remember it, thank you!"

Zhang Ming also smiled and said: "Okay, then I'll go. Also, with your memory, you'd better go to the hospital."

"Well... I know!" Gu Qi nodded.

Then Zhang Ming left again, and Gu Qi just looked at his back.

After Zhang Ming left, he thought on the way, what is wrong with Gu Qi? Why can he even forget himself?

But he couldn't figure out the problem, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

After returning home, Zhang Ming had nothing else to do, so he started drawing talismans as usual.

At night, Zhang Ming remembered an old man who was possessed by an air-eating ghost in the community park and whom he had instructed before.

At that time, he said that if there was no improvement in two days, he should come to find Zhang Ming.

Zhang Ming had returned to the countryside for the past few days, and now that he was back, he decided to go down and take a look.

After thinking about it, he brought some talismans. As for the peach wood sword, it was too conspicuous, so he only brought eight copper coins and a ghost-collecting gourd.

It was not too late when they arrived at the community park, but there were only two figures in the park.

Zhang Ming recognized them at a glance. They were the old man and his granddaughter.

They seemed to be waiting for Zhang Ming specifically, and they all came over immediately after seeing Zhang Ming.

Before the old man could say anything, his granddaughter started yelling at Zhang Ming:

"It's all your fault. Grandpa has been basking in the sun during the past two days, but he is in great pain at night!"

Seeing the girl complaining, Zhang Ming curled his lips, glanced at the old man and said:

"But the old man's yang energy is obviously sufficient, and his spirit is much better."

The girl wanted to say something, but the old man stopped her and said to Zhang Ming with a smile:

"Young master, you are right. Although I have suffered a little these two nights, my spirit is much better. I am not as weak as before."

Zhang Ming nodded and said: "This is natural. In the past, you avoided the sun during the day, and the qi-eating ghost sucked your yang energy at night. The yang energy in your body is getting less and less, and your spirit is naturally weak. If this continues, you will not live for a week."

"And these few days, even though you felt uncomfortable, you still endured basking in the sun. The evil spirit left by the air-eating ghost was dispelled, and the yang energy in your body was greatly replenished.

So even if the air-eating ghost continues to absorb at night, it can't absorb too much. What's more, the yang energy replenished for you by basking in the sun is sufficient, and the air-eating ghost is a little scared, so naturally it wants to torture you."

Hearing Zhang Ming's words, the old man nodded and said, "I understand this logic. What you mean is that it originally absorbed my yang energy, but now that I am basking in the sun during the day, my body has a lot of yang energy, so it is a little afraid of me, right?"

"Yes, but from what you said, it is still following you. I saw that it is not behind you." Zhang Ming said.

The old man said, "I only feel the pain in the second half of the night."

"Yes, you have been exposed to the sun all day, so it dares not approach you. It only dares to approach you in the second half of the night when the yang energy in your body is not so strong. So it may be in your house!" said Zhang Ming.

The old man hurriedly said, "Young Master, is there any way to deal with it?"

"Of course, it lived on you before, and I couldn't force it, so I let you get more sun, which was to let it leave you. Now that it has left you, I can deal with it without any scruples."

Seeing Zhang Ming so confident, the old man was very excited and hurriedly said,

"Then please go to my house and help me deal with this thing. I will definitely thank you."

Zhang Ming said, "No need to thank me. If I can help, I will naturally help with this kind of thing. Let's go!"

Hearing this, the old man looked at Zhang Ming with a little more admiration in his eyes.

Then he led the way more politely and invited Zhang Ming to his house.

The girl behind him did not say anything during the whole process. Seeing that Zhang Ming was going to his home, she hurriedly said:

"Grandpa, it's not good to let strangers go to your home..."

"Yan'er, the young master is your lifesaver, how can you say strangers?" The old man frowned.

The girl said awkwardly: "What if... he is a liar, there are so many liars these days."

"Then if that's the case, I won't go. Anyway, there is no ghost in my house!" Zhang Ming pouted.

Hearing this, the girl was startled, biting her lip and looking at Zhang Ming and said: "Really... there is really a ghost? Are you sure you are not lying to us?"

"Why would I lie to you? If you don't believe it, I will show you the ghost later." Zhang Ming said.

"Well, seeing is believing. If there really is a ghost, I will do whatever you ask me to do. If not, you are a liar!" said the girl.

Zhang Ming smiled when he heard it, thinking, I will do anything? Then... stop, stop, you are thinking wrongly!

The old man and the girl live on the third floor of a building in the community, and the location is very good.

Entering the house, the furnishings inside are very tasteful, and the decorations are antique.

"Young sir, please!" The old man motioned Zhang Ming to come in.

After Zhang Ming walked in, he felt that the yin energy inside was a bit heavy, and there was also some ghostly air.

The girl turned on all the lights, and Zhang Ming scanned the house and found that there was no light in the living room.

Then his eyes fell on a bedroom. The old man said, "That's my bedroom."

Zhang Ming nodded and walked straight over. After opening the door, he looked around the bedroom and saw a dark shadow squatting at the head of the bed.

Looking closely, it was the air-eating ghost that had been lying on the old man's back before.

Air-eating ghosts are generally thin, black in color, with fierce and greedy faces.

Air-eating ghosts are not 100% harmful ghosts. They usually like to find evil people to attach themselves to and absorb the yang energy until the person dies.

However, Zhang Ming felt that the old man was not an evil person, and he had a kind and approachable manner.

So Zhang Ming felt that this air-eating ghost must have attached itself to the old man because the old man accidentally provoked it.

The air-eating ghost showed a ferocious look when it saw Zhang Ming, as if it knew that it was Zhang Ming's idea that the old man had been sunbathing for the past two days and had added yang energy.

Zhang Ming sneered and stared at the air-eating ghost and was about to speak.

But the air-eating ghost suddenly pounced and came towards Zhang Ming.

Zhang Ming did not resist, and the next moment, the thing had already attached to Zhang Ming's back.

Then Zhang Ming smiled and said, "If you possess me, you will be in trouble!"
