Chapter 18 The Ghost's Obsession is Money

"Which ghost is responsible for what happened today?" Lin Zhenxing suddenly wondered if what happened just now was the ghost's revenge.

He felt that everything around him was gloomy. Even though the sun was shining brightly above his head, he felt cold all over.

"No, it's because they smelled of a dead body last night, so they ran into us today."

The negative energy of a corpse is extremely strong, and for ordinary people, dying for a few days is no big deal if they encounter one.

This is why Lin Xiyue could feel the ghostly aura on Lin Zhenxing as soon as he came back yesterday.

His money was also tainted with evil spirits. If she hadn't drawn a spell to purify it, he would have been in trouble if he used it.

Lin Zhenxing suddenly thought that if Lin Xiyue hadn't intervened, he would have followed those contractors and would have been hit as well.

The more he thought about these things, the more bizarre they seemed. Lin Zhenxing unconsciously moved closer to his daughter.

I always feel that a 1.6-meter-tall daughter will give me a sense of security compared to my current height of 1.8-meter-tall self.

"Xixi, what should we do with this dead ghost? Just let him wander around here?"

My daughter said that if she got involved with him, she would be in bad luck for days. Then wouldn’t all the people he met be in bad luck?

"Can we find a way to take him in, or bury him in peace?"

Lin Xiyue could see that Lin Zhenxing felt sympathy for this corpse ghost.

"Although he became a ghost and had certain abilities, he did not harm anyone. He just wanted to find the contractor who owed him money."

"After he collects the debt from the contractor tonight, he will go look for his wife and children, and then he will be able to rest in peace."

"You mean he's going to ask the contractor for money tonight?"

Lin Zhenxing's expression looked a little strange.

He really couldn't imagine a corpse asking a living person for money. Especially in the middle of the night, it would be really scary.

Lin Xiyue nodded, but these were not things they needed to worry about, after all, they were not the ones to be scared.

"What we need to do is to wait for the ghost to fulfill his wish, so that he will no longer be attached to the human world and we can lead him back home."

Lin Zhenxing accepted the help of the corpse ghost and was contaminated by the corpse ghost's karma, so he must repay this favor.

Lin Zhengxing did not resist. He was grateful for the man's help yesterday, and after hearing about his experience, he felt even more sympathetic. He did not feel uncomfortable helping him lead the way home and being his guide.

The only thing that makes him not is the scientific view in his mind, and his worldview is collapsing inch by inch until nothing is left.

It was still early and the ghosts would not come out until night, so Lin Xiyue gave Lin Zhenxing a list and asked him to buy some things.

Lin Zhenxing looked at the list of items including cinnabar, glutinous rice, black dog blood, talisman paper, etc., and felt that he was one step closer to feudal superstition.

Lin Xiyue handed him another card and said, "There's another 5,000 yuan in it, which should be enough to buy these things."

She is really poor, but once she finishes these things, she should be rich.

Lin Zhenxing did not refuse. He did not have a penny in his hand. If he had no money to buy these things, who would give him money? So this was not the time to refuse and save face.

The things Lin Xiyue wanted were very scattered, and some of them were not available on the market, so she had to go through some special channels.

However, with Lin Zhenxing's intelligence, even though he had never come into contact with these things before, he could still find a way to buy them quickly.

The two discussed it for a while, their stomachs growling with hunger, and when they looked at the time, they realized it was already noon.

With the scorching sun overhead, Lin Zhenxing felt that the cold and gloomy air around him had been dispelled a lot.

"You are not a cultivator, and you don't have the blessing of Taoism. If you encounter corpses and ghosts, you will definitely be affected. Just get more sun in the next few days."

No wonder Lin Zhenxing didn't feel hot at all even though the sun was shining brightly.
