The word "husband" stirred ripples in my heart.
Jin Banwei shyly raised her hands to cover her red face, leaving only a pair of eyes to secretly look at the ghost wife the system summoned for her, and muttered softly: "Ghost sister, you don't have to call me husband. The experience card I drew is only for ten days. After the experience period, we will be strangers again. We still can't have too much intimate contact. It's better not to call you so intimately. Don't let your emotions be controlled by cold machines."
Jin Banwei's voice was so weak that it was almost inaudible. She seemed to be trying to persuade her ghost wife, but it was more like she was talking to herself.
She also felt it was strange. The thread of fate had tied her to the ghost wife, but it seemed as if her emotions were also controlled by her. When he called her husband, the ghost wife didn't do anything, but she herself became shy and blushed.
Jin Banwei gently patted her red cheeks, trying to control her embarrassment, but it had the opposite effect. The face under her palms became redder and hotter. She did not notice the ghost wife's strange expression, nor did she see the raised corners of her lips.
"My husband is sick."
The ghost wife floated in front of Jin Banwei without her knowing, and reached out her soft and boneless hand towards Jin Banwei's forehead. She seemed not to hear Jin Banwei's whisper at all. She had long been controlled by the marriage line and only knew that the person in front of her was the one she loved. She was unaware of Jin Banwei's shyness, and just thought that she was sick, and that was why her face turned red as if dripping with blood.
The ghost wife not only looks gentle and beautiful, but also has a gentle voice, which sounds like goose down brushing against her ears, soft and a little itchy.
Jin Banwei froze for a moment.
She was not sick, and she did not know how to respond to the tenderness of the ghost wife. She did not let go of her hand that was covering her face. She smiled awkwardly and changed the subject: "Ghost sister, you are so beautiful."
This was also Jin Banwei's inner voice. The system just said that it would only select those who were emotionally deficient and willing to accept the system's arrangements. I don't know if it had deliberately screened their appearance. The ghost wife in front of him was indeed a rare beauty, and perhaps her temperament had also been screened, she was unspeakably gentle.
The ghost wife did not show any joy at the compliment, nor did she care whether Jin Banwei was sick or not. She looked at Jin Banwei straight, and suddenly raised her wrist. The cuff of her sleeve fell slightly to reveal a slender white arm. Jin Banwei noticed a light red mark on her forearm, which was not conspicuous and did not look abrupt. On the contrary, it was pleasing to the eye, like a red plum blossom blooming in the snow.
The ghost wife's hand touched Jin Banwei's wrist. What Jin Banwei felt at this moment was not the softness she had expected, but a stinging chill on her wrist.
Jin Banwei's body temperature was already lower than that of an ordinary person, and the ghost wife's body was even colder. Jin Banwei couldn't help but shiver when her wrist was only lightly touched.
The ghost wife must have noticed something, because a faint red light appeared on her palm, and soon the chill that made Jin Banwei uncomfortable dissipated.
Jin Banwei couldn't tell for a moment whether she was controlled by the system or was just gentle and considerate. She was also a ghost, but not scary. She could even detect Jin Banwei's subtle changes. She would even change the temperature of her palms for Jin Banwei.
The Virtuous Wife Experience Card truly embodies the meaning of virtue.
But whether it is the former or the latter, such a ghost wife undoubtedly has the ability to make people deeply trapped.
Jin Banwei shook her head gently, forcing herself to wake up. The ghost wife's hand did not stay on Jin Banwei's face for long. After she pulled Jin Banwei's hand off her face, she also let go of Jin Banwei's wrist.
She approached Jin Banwei just to see Jin Banwei clearly.
The ghost wife looked at Jin Banwei's face with gentle eyes, secretly memorized Jin Banwei's facial features, and said softly: "My husband is also very beautiful."
I have to admit that her voice of "husband" sounds very beautiful, but I can never let her keep calling him that.
Jin Banwei bit her lips in confusion. Before she could open her mouth, she heard the ghost wife's voice: "If my husband doesn't like me calling you that, then I will call you Xiao Jin from now on."
So she heard Jin Banwei's muttering, so she should have heard about the experience card as well. Why did she seem to not care at all? She didn't even show the doubts she should have.
Could it be that the system automatically blocks her from talking about the rules, or that the ghost wife has been too deeply brainwashed by the marriage line and only has her husband in her eyes, so other things become unimportant.
Jin Banwei was lost in her thoughts, but the ghost wife was unaware. She took Jin Banwei's hand and wrote the words "Ren Qiao" on her palm with her fingers.
She was still gentle and soft, "Xiao Jin, you can call me by my name from now on."
Ren Qiao is her name, a ghost that never appears in the book.
She deliberately wrote her name on Jin Banwei's palm, as if she knew that Jin Banwei didn't know her name. But how could there be a husband in this world who doesn't know his wife's name? Wouldn't Ren Qiao doubt the rationality of this?
Isn't it a good karma system? Why does it also affect IQ?
Jin Banwei secretly complained in her heart, but Ren Qiao had already let go of her hand and was staring at her, waiting for her reaction.
But after waiting for a long time, Ren Qiao only saw the wonderful changes on Jin Banwei's face. It seemed that a very wonderful drama was being played out in her heart, and the expression on her face also became colorful.
Jin Banwei really looks like a little child.
Well, not very smart.
Ren Qiao didn't expect that Jin Banwei didn't notice her abnormality at all, and didn't realize that she was lying to her husband.
Before being summoned here, Ren Qiao was being chased by a ghost hunter.
She is a ghost, an old ghost that has been wandering in the world for a hundred years.
People often say that ghosts are created by obsession, because they have unfulfilled wishes in their hearts and are unwilling to reincarnate. But Ren Qiao is a little different. She is a ghost who has lost her memory. She does not remember her life, nor does she remember any unfulfilled wishes. All she remembers is wandering day after day.
She didn't know where she came from or where she was going. The only thing she knew was that she must have been a person in her previous life, perhaps a bride about to get married, just because she was wearing a wedding dress.
Most ghosts have graves, so they have a place to rest even if they stay in the world of the living. But Ren Qiao is different. She can’t find her own grave, or maybe she never had a grave in the first place.
Ghosts without graves can only wander around. Ren Qiao had stayed in a mass grave a long time ago. There were groups of ghosts there, but the ghost aura on her was too strong. According to the definition of ghost cultivation, she had become the most powerful ghost - the Ghost King. Those ordinary ghosts were scared of her, so Ren Qiao left in order not to cause unnecessary panic.
Ren Qiao had briefly developed a wish before, which was to reincarnate and end her fate of wandering and being hunted. She even took the risk to find the underworld's messenger, but the underworld's messenger said that she lacked a soul. A ghost without a soul could not reincarnate even if it had not committed any killing, and could not even enter the underworld. Her wish was quickly shattered.
That ghost messenger was the only person Ren Qiao had ever met who was not afraid of her and did not want to kill her. After Ren Qiao had helped her several times, he even gave her a ghost card from the underworld. The ghost card connected to the underworld and could be used to check the life span of ghosts. It could be said to be a work permit for the underworld. After having the ghost card, fewer people chased Ren Qiao, but she still encountered the unreasonable ghost catchers of today. They would even slander Ren Qiao for stealing things from the underworld. However, each ghost card had a name, and no one else could use it except their owner.
She continued to drift and wander, with no fixed place to stay and no one she knew.
Ghosts weaker than her are afraid of her, and ghosts stronger than her want to eat her. Not only that, she also has to face the hunting of Taoist priests, ghost catchers, and monks. This has never stopped for hundreds of years. Although she has never hurt anyone, those people all want to disperse her soul.
Just now she was being chased by a ghost catcher. The ghost catcher was young but very powerful. Ren Qiao did not want to hurt anyone, and she had not hurt anyone over the years. Even if she was being chased, she was just trying to escape. But the ghost catcher actually used his essence and blood to set up the Heavenly Thunder Formation to kill her. She was confident that she could break the formation, but the ghost catcher used his essence and blood to set up the formation. If she broke the formation, the ghost catcher who was attacked by the formation would not be able to get timely treatment and might lose his life.
While Ren Qiao was still hesitating, his soul was led here.
Her hesitation was not due to her excessive compassion, but because her ownerless soul had been wandering for too long and would feel tired. She also knew very well that if anyone died while breaking the formation, the ghost card would disappear from her hand and more people would come to hunt her down.
Ren Qiao didn't want to continue floating, but he certainly didn't want to disappear either.
Fortunately, she was drawn here while she was hesitating.
Being able to draw her soul out of the formation without damaging it at all, Ren Qiao could feel the power of the magic, and she subconsciously thought that the one who summoned her soul would be a powerful sorcerer. Ren Qiao was a little resistant at first, as she had seen some evil sorcerers who raised ghosts and fed corpses over the years, and she didn't want the ghost blades in their hands to kill people.
But when the red string was tied, Ren Qiao realized something was wrong. Jin Banwei's information and her preferences began to appear in her mind. There was also a voice telling her that Jin Banwei was her husband. The string did not seem to be used to control her soul, but more like to brainwash her.
Ren Qiao found it a little funny for a moment. She had seen people catching ghosts to train them into killing tools, but this was the first time she saw someone catching ghosts to be his wife.
Naturally, she would not allow herself to be manipulated by others. The red thread was much easier to cut than she had imagined, but the person who cast the spell was unaware of it. She just wanted to try whether Jin Banwei really did not notice that the red thread was broken before calling her husband, but she did not expect the result to be somewhat unexpected.
The word "husband" not only tested Jin Banwei's unawareness, but also tested Jin Banwei's innocence. She muttered such a long sentence, and although her voice was soft, it was not difficult for Ren Qiao to hear it clearly. Although she only understood half of it, she also understood that this magic was only effective for ten days.
Ten days... She wanted to continue playing the role of the wife for these ten days.
All of a sudden, a flood of thoughts invaded Ren Qiao's mind.
Jin Banwei could be said to have saved her, and she wanted to use these ten days as a way to repay her gratitude and also as a way to escape. She had never had a place of her own, and had been on the run and wandering for a hundred years. She had no friends to talk to, and the saddest thing was that she didn't even have any memories worth recalling. Sometimes she would doubt the meaning of her continued existence. Suddenly someone wanted to give her a home, even if it was only temporary, but Ren Qiao was a little moved.
Jin Banwei didn't seem like a malicious person. She was more like a child who had learned something new and couldn't wait to try it out. She took it out and tried it without even understanding its function. If the ghost that was attracted was not her but an evil ghost, then from the moment the red line was broken, Jin Banwei's life would have ended.
Playing games with a child for ten days and having a memory that is not all loneliness and embarrassment doesn't sound bad.
It’s just that Ren Qiao doesn’t know how to be a good wife, but there shouldn’t be anything wrong in being nice to her.
Ren Qiao had made up his mind, but Jin Banwei knew nothing about it. She was still immersed in thinking about whether the Shanyuan System would affect her IQ.
Ren Qiao raised her eyebrows slightly. After her arrival, the ghosts in the house quieted down, but Ren Qiao still noticed the unusual movements in the house, especially the disgusting smell on the ceiling.
"Xiao Jin, are all the ghosts in this house yours?"
Jin Banwei finally came to her senses and quickly explained: "No, no, how could I raise a ghost!"
Ren Qiao thought about it and felt that it was unlikely. She could feel that these ghosts were trapped by a powerful force, and Jin Banwei did not seem to have such power.
But the magic that lured her here was clearly very powerful. Ren Qiao had doubts in her heart, but she did not ask. Not only was she afraid of being exposed, but she also felt it was unnecessary.
There are many kinds of magic in the world that can be used against ghosts, so it is not surprising that even people with weak powers can use powerful magic.
Jin Banwei was probably too afraid of ghosts. Her face turned pale as she argued. Ren Qiao had more things he couldn't understand. If she was so afraid of ghosts, why did she want to marry a ghost?
She kindly reminded Jin Banwei: "Xiao Jin, I am also a ghost."
