Chapter 187: Ghost Hunting (XVIII)
"Sir! ... I... I am not..."
"Do you want to get energy?"
The starving ghost's words of apology came to an abrupt end. He couldn't believe what he heard. The adults actually... actually said they would give him energy?
"think!"
The next second, the adult's words came from above:
"Get down on your knees and beg me."
When the starving ghost heard that there was a chance, he immediately knelt down to show his loyalty. What is backbone? He had been hungry for so many years and had long forgotten it.
With a "thump", the muffled sound of knees kneeling on the ground came into the house.
Chu Yun and 5789 listened to the sounds outside.
"Say something pleasant."
"Ah...oh! Your Excellency is imposing and handsome! He is both intelligent and courageous, and upright! He is talented, mature and steady! He is elegant and ambitious!"
Like reciting a book, the sharp-tongued starving ghost outside the door racked his brains to come up with all the auspicious words he had ever seen in his life.
The starving ghost's eloquence earned him a rich reward, and for the first time in his life he felt full.
Chu Yun was almost mad in the room. He knew what Xiao Qianji meant. He was simply telling him that if he didn't want someone, there were plenty of people who would. His so-called face was worthless in front of him.
Xiao Qianji deliberately angered Chu Yun, and Chu Yun didn't want to pay any attention to him anymore.
Facing Chu Yun's cold face every day, Xiao Qianji was also angry. He tried hard to suppress the malice in his heart, for fear that he would lose control and kill Chu Yun.
Sometimes when I calm down, I feel fortunate that the human blocked his attack, otherwise Chu Yun would have been killed.
While feeling relieved, I will think of Chu Yun's goodness. This kid makes people feel soft-hearted when he is obedient. Yan Shu, who is cold-hearted, always says good things about him, but when he is stubborn, he can be so infuriating. Why can't he just give in to me?
It worked before, so why not this time? Just because of that human?
In Xiao Qianji's heart, Chu Yun cannot fall in love with anyone. Love is not suitable for him.
But Chu Yun is different from other ghosts. He will not surrender because of his own strength, nor will he get angry because of the humiliation of the starving ghost.
He doesn't fit in with them... he's really annoying.

"Master! Master, please check on my brother! He's about to die!"
As soon as Lezi arrived at Shan Yu's house, he saw the person lying in a pool of blood. It was his best brother Shan Yu.
Lezi was so scared that he almost died. He dialed 120 immediately. When the ambulance arrived, they found something strange. There were no wounds on Shan Yu's body, and his internal organs were fine, but his vital signs were declining.
All the chief doctors of surgical and internal medicine departments were present, but they could not find any problem.
Le Zi, who was suspicious by nature, couldn't delay his brother's situation any longer, but he had no choice. When he was at a loss in the hospital, a pierced man in riveted pants came.
"I have a plan."
Lezi didn't expect that the man with the piercing was from the Li family, named Li Yuan. Li Yuan took Shan Yu to a temple on a mountain, the same temple that Lezi complained about only giving him one talisman a month.
"Is this... is this reliable? Otherwise, I'll find a master to take a look at my brother..."
Lezi was now at a loss, and Shan Yu's face turned from pale to ashen, as if he could die at any time.
"My cousin is a genius from the previous generation of the Li family. If he's still not capable... then Mr. Shan might be in great danger."
When Lezi heard this, he dared not refute:
"Then hurry up and go find your cousin!"

Chu Yun could only find out whether Shan Yu was still alive through 5789 every day, because Shan Yu's condition was really bad before he left.
Chu Yun, who could eat and sleep well, hardly had a good night's sleep in these days. In his dreams, he always dreamed of Shan Yu vomiting blood.
In his dream, Shan Yu turned into a ghost after his death. He blamed him for attracting evil spirits and ending his life early.
Chu Yun cried and said sorry, he fell into deep self-blame.
The scene changes and Dan Yu hugs himself and smiles, saying that his wish has come true.
Chu Yun in the dream asked him why he said that.
"I've finally become a ghost, and we can be together forever."
Such innocent and childish words made Chu Yun laugh. He lowered his head and laughed, and his voice gradually became cold.
It wasn't his own laugh.
Chu Yun looked up and saw that Shan Yu's face had turned into Xiao Qianji.
The smile on Xiao Qianji's lips grew wider and wider, and he kept saying:
"I want to be with you forever..."
Chu Yun was so scared that he kicked his feet and woke up.
[Host? Are you having a nightmare?]
Chu Yun had not yet recovered from the nightmare. He stared blankly at the moonlight outside the window. He felt hungry and his stomach started to reflux. He lost all strength and fell on the bed.
[Host! Are you okay? I'll help you right now!]
5789 looked at Chu Yunxiao who fell weakly on the bed, breathing fragilely, his eyes were hazy and he was about to close.
At this moment, 5789 finally understood 001. No one who saw this scene could be so hard-hearted as to ignore him.
It wanted to help him, even at the risk of being thrown into a time and space prison.
"No...don't help me anymore..."
Chu Yun had already implicated 001, and he didn't want to implicate 5789 again. This poor system had never received any points, not even a lithium battery.
001 was imprisoned in the space-time prison and still had the ability to get out. 5789 is a newly appointed system. It has no power and influence, so it will be bullied...
5789 was about to cry, but the system had no tears, yet it felt truly sad.
No one would be sympathetic towards such a cute creature, unless they were not human.
Damn bastard Xiao!
Chu Yun had not absorbed yang energy for several days and nights. He had never suffered such hardship since he followed Shan Yu. Shan Yu was always worried that he didn't have enough and was hungry, so he stayed on Shan Yu's neck for twenty hours out of the twenty-four hours a day.
He lowered his head and rubbed the pillow. He missed Shan Yu a little bit...

"Sir! Chu Yun is in critical condition, and his body has begun to dissipate!"
Yanshu’s daily task includes observing Chuyun. She also knows that Chuyun is not having a good time. She feels sorry for this little kid, but also a little resentful towards the respected adults.
Why do you treat him like this?
Chu Yun's weakness was visible to the eyes. His face, which was rosy at the beginning, turned pale as the days went by.
On the contrary, the starving ghost who was clamoring at his door every day became even more rosy-faced. The master actually went to such lengths to make Chu Yun surrender.
Is it necessary? Chu Yun did nothing wrong, why did the adults treat him like this?
Yanshu even thought that the adults liked the hungry ghost, and the hungry ghost hated Chuyun, so the adults locked Chuyun up to vent their anger on the hungry ghost.
But this cannot explain the adults' behavior, because they used to visit Chuyun every day.
I stopped going after hitting a wall so many times.
