Chapter 21: Accumulate some ghost virtue
The day before school started, Gu Yuan joined the freshman group of University A.
The icon of “A University Freshman Group” was jumping on the screen of the newly bought mobile phone.
Gu Yuan pointed his finger inside.
This was his first time joining such a group chat, and also his last.
His life is counting down, the last 10 days.
"As long as we can keep it a secret this time..."
Gu Yuan muttered to himself, his fingertips unconsciously rubbing the dark red contract mark on his forehead that was hidden under the skin:
"If you don't talk to yourself or do strange things, you can live your last days like an ordinary person."
Just as he was scrolling through the screen, trying to understand the discussions that were quickly passing by about dormitories, cafeterias, and course selections.
A photo suddenly popped up, instantly igniting the already boiling group chat.
The ID of the person who posted the photo is Jichen.
The boy in the photo has dyed silver hair and is posing with a naughty smile at the camera.
Jichen: "[photo.jpg] Damn! I lost at Truth or Dare, and these idiot friends forced me to post this selfie in the group chat! I'm doomed!"
Jichen: "Ahem, well... I'm 185cm tall with eight-pack abs. I'm not some earth-shatteringly handsome guy, but my friends say I have a bit of a cool and unruly temperament. What do you think? [Picking nose.jpg]"
Gu Yuan couldn't help laughing, his fingers typing quickly, and Gu Yuan: "Very handsome, like it."
Computer Liu Qian: "Wow! He really is a bit of a badass! Especially those eyes, the way they look at the camera... Tsk!"
Computer Liu Qian: "I think we shouldn't call him Jichen anymore. It's a scary name. How about calling him Piyanzi? It's more vivid and appropriate! [狗头保命.jpg]"
"puff--"
Gu Yuan couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Immediately afterwards, the group completely exploded.
Computer Passerby A: "Hahahahahahaha, you're not bad looking! What a fucking nickname!"
Computer Passerby B: "What's your major, Piyanzi? Computer science? He's going to be our school's reserve hunk from now on."
Computer Passerby C: "@Jiechen come out! Claim your new name! Rogue Eyes!"
Computer Passerby D: "Bastard, let's go play basketball at the beginning of the semester! Let's see if your abs are real! [evil smile.jpg]"
Jichen: "??? Damn it! You bunch of devils! What the hell are you doing with your eyes! My tall and mighty image! [covering my face and crying.jpg]"
Watching the jokes and the wailing of the ruffians quickly filling the screen in the group.
Gu Yuan laughed so hard that his whole body trembled slightly, and even his toes, which had been cold all year round, felt warm.
It had been so long since he had felt such pure joy.
He had been staying in Heli Village and wore the talisman paper given by Grandpa Lin when he went to school, for fear of being targeted by some unclean creature.
"So happy?"
A deep male voice suddenly sounded beside his ears, and Gu Yuan turned his head to meet Ji Yunzhou's dark red eyes.
Lord Ghost King transformed into a physical body today, wearing a black robe that hung loosely on his body, revealing a large area of pale chest with scratches from his own passion.
"Where have you been?"
Gu Yuan asked subconsciously, a smile still lingering in his voice.
But he didn't wait for Ji Yunzhou to answer and handed over the phone:
"This is hilarious! Have you ever encountered such a conspicuous bag when you were experiencing college life?"
Ji Yunzhou glanced at the screen, a hint of sarcasm on his lips: "No."
He paused, and his slender fingers slid across Gu Yuan's phone screen: "After all, no one dares to talk to me like this."
Gu Yuan rolled his eyes.
Yes, this is a proud and vicious ghost king.
The group became lively again, and the style of painting gradually became abstract:
Astronomy Department E: "Just a quick question, is the bed in the dorm big enough? I'm 190cm tall... [shivering.jpg]"
Archaeology Department F: "190?! Bro, the bed is definitely not long enough! I suggest you cut yourself off, put your lower body on the ground, and your upper body on the bed. Perfect solution! [Clever.jpg]"
G from the Chinese Literature Department: "Hahahaha, are you a devil upstairs?"
Xiao Tiantian: "Serious question: Do the school cafeteria and supermarkets accept M yuan payments? I just returned to China and don't have enough cash..."
Anonymous user: "Support! Of course I support! Just prepare the money, find a crossroads, draw a circle, write the name of the school, and then burn it devoutly! I guarantee it will be credited to your account in seconds! [candle.jpg] [candle.jpg]"
Chinese Language J: "Poof! God damn, burn it to the school! The talent upstairs! Is this the M yuan issued by Tiandi Bank? [dog head.jpg]"
Gu Yuan was so amused by these funny people that the corners of his mouth kept rising. Just as he was about to join in the joke, a new message suddenly popped up:
Mo Lin: "I usually use Tiandi Bank."
This sentence made the hairs on his body stand on end.
His extremely yin body makes him particularly sensitive to yin energy.
Tiandi Bank is the ghost money issuing institution commonly used in the underworld, and living people would never call it that.
Something even stranger happened.
The group suddenly became quiet and no one spoke for two minutes.
Then:
"Hey? What's going on? My phone screen just went all foggy and I can't see anything! How about you guys?"
"Me too! I was so scared! I thought my phone was broken! It was stuck...stuck when someone sent something? It was gone in the blink of an eye!"
Xiao Tiantian: "Yeah, yeah, yeah! It got stuck too! The screen twisted and the message disappeared! @Mo Lin, what did you just say? I didn't even see it clearly!"
"Mo Lin? Who is that? What did he say? Everything in the group chat is normal, I don't see any unusual messages. Are you dazzled?"
Computer Liu Qian: "I saw it! He said he usually uses Tiandi Bank! The one with the ID Mo Lin!"
Jichen (the scoundrel): "I saw it too! The Bank of Heaven and Earth! Damn, that sounds so creepy!"
"Oh my god! Don't scare me! What Heaven and Earth Bank? There's no such thing in my chat history! I can't find it anywhere!"
"I...I didn't see him either. Who is this person @Mo Lin? Is he in the group member list? Why don't I have any impression of him?"
"Wait... I think I took a glimpse just now, but there's really no record! @Mo Lin, come out and say something!"
"Mo Lin, stop saying unlucky things! Could it be that you've really attracted some unclean creature? I'm getting goosebumps! [scared.jpg]"
Gu Yuan's fingers froze on the screen.
What follows is even more horrifying:
"Who is Mo Lin? What did he say?"
"Oh my god, can't you see? He said he uses Tiandi Bank."
“I saw it too…”
"Why didn't I see it?"
The group instantly exploded.
Only a handful of people said they had seen the message from "Mo Lin", while others insisted that there was no such statement.
Gu Yuan stared at the screen intently. He clearly remembered the ID, the message, and even the position of the period.
"Ji Yunzhou."
He called out softly, his voice trembling a little: "There are unclean things in the school."
The Ghost King lazily leaned against the bed, a strand of black hair falling in front of his forehead: "Don't be afraid, use your palm thunder to blow it to death."
"You know my magic doesn't work nine times out of ten!"
Gu Yuan was so angry that he kicked him, but because he kicked too hard, he grimaced in pain.
His extremely yin body makes him more fragile than ordinary people, and he will get bruises or even fractures if he is not careful.
But he never took these things seriously, which made his body even more fragile now.
Especially in the past few days, he always felt pain all over his body, and if he was not careful, he would get bruised.
Ji Yunzhou's eyes darkened, and he suddenly reached out and grasped Gu Yuan's ankle.
His palm was cold, but strangely, it made Gu Yuan feel a hint of warmth: "So?"
Gu Yuan bit his lower lip and suddenly an idea came to his mind.
He moved his body, moved closer to Ji Yunzhou's chest, raised his face and said in the softest tone:
"Master Ghost King~"
The ending sound was long, like a kitten's claws scratching my heart: "I'm scared..."
Ji Yunzhou: “…”
Gu Yuan felt Ji Yunzhou's body stiffen for a moment.
What kind of scenes has this ghost king, who has lived for a thousand years, not seen?
But he has no resistance to his own embrace.
Ji Yunzhou narrowed his eyes, a dangerous glint flashing in his dark red pupils: "Then don't live on campus, rent a house, it will be more convenient for me..."
He suddenly stopped talking mid-sentence.
Gu Yuan looked up curiously: "What's convenient for you?"
"It's convenient for me to make interest."
Ji Yunzhou's eyes were burning, his lips curled up, and his Adam's apple rolled: "But didn't you say you wanted to live a normal life? Making friends, studying, having fun..."
Gu Yuan felt his face getting hot. He quickly looked away, and then his attention was drawn to the discussion in the group again.
Someone suggested that everyone meet at school early tomorrow at the coffee shop at the east gate of the school.
"I want to go."
Gu Yuan suddenly said, his eyes sparkling: "They are organizing a meeting tomorrow, I want to attend."
Ji Yunzhou frowned: "Are you not afraid now? You were still acting like a spoiled child with me just a second ago..."
"Ji Yunzhou~"
Gu Yuan interrupted him and raised his chin stubbornly: "That thing may not be directed at me."
His voice dropped. "I only have ten days left, Ji Yunzhou. I want to...at least experience a normal college life."
The room fell silent for a moment.
Tsk~
Ji Yunzhou looked at Gu Yuan, then at the Five Emperors' Coins on his wrist.
After a long moment, he sighed.
Forget it~
"I'll go with you. If you get into trouble, let me take over."
It was rare for Ji Yunzhou to speak to Gu Yuan in a negotiating tone, mainly because the child was in very poor health.
He was afraid that he would be like before and use his sharp tongue to irritate him to death. That would really be...
What a sin.
After living for thousands of years, one must have accumulated some good deeds.
Gu Yuan nodded excitedly: "Yeah, okay, I promise to listen to you~"
