  The village they were at now was called Wan Yue village. In the recent years, the areas around here would be developed so the villagers had already moved out.

  However, when the developers arrived at the village to tear it down, all kinds of accidents started happening.

  Their machines would spoil and people would die suddenly.

  The developers had looked for Taoist masters before and it got quieter for two days. But, after that, things started happening agin.

  Rumours started spreading that there were ghosts in this village and the work on this village stopped.

  An Zhiling and her friends were psychic fans. When they heard of what happened at Wan Yue village, they organized themselves and came here to explore. At first, An Zhiling didn’t want to come but her friends kept threatening her that they would not be her friends anymore and she relented in the end.

  They came here at night. When they just arrived at the village, nothing happened. However, as they reached the center, gHost cries started appearing around them.

  After that, a huge gush of wind blew at them and seemed to want to blow them away.

  Everyone was in a mess. SHe heard the cries of her friends and she was dragged away by someone.

  She was really scared. She ran for a long time but when she resumed her conscience, the person that pulled her away was gone. The surroundings were really quiet.

  Then…… she fainted.

  When she woke up, she saw Ming Shu.

  “Are there really ghosts in this village? Will my friends be okay?” She was really worried about them but she didn’t know where to find them.

  Lu Jiu asked, “how many were there?”


  “There ar four of us including me.”


  “All girls?”


  A nodded.

  Lu Jiu respected them. A bunch of girls coming here in the middle of the night knowing that there were rumors about this village. Even if there was no ghost, what if they meet some bad people?

  “Call the police…… there is a handphone, we can call the police.” An Zhiling suddenly said, “the police will find them.”


  “You can’t call the police.” The man behind Lu Jiu said, “this issue is outside of human’s domain. It will be useless even if the police came.”


  An Zhiling’s face turned pale. “So…… there are really ghost?”


  “I don’t know if there are ghost, but there is definitely demons.” Ming Shu smiled and said, “see, I am a demon. Am I pretty?”


  An Zhiling looked at the pretty face and even forgot to blinked.

  Demon……

  An Zhiling fell on to the floor in shock.

  “Boss’s phone is here so he must be around here too. I will try your best to find your friends. You can send them out first.” The last sentence was directed at the man behind him.

  The man nodded.

  “I will go with you.” Ming Shu rejected his decision and said her reason before Lu Jiu could reject her. “I am a demon. If a demon really did this, I will be able to find it easier than you guys.”


  I did it for my snacks!

  “I will not leave too. I need to find my friends.” An Zhiling forced herself to calm down. “If I can’t find my friends, I will not leave.”


  Lu Jiu: “.……”


  In the end, Lu Jiu brought a human and a demon into the village and searched around. Lu Jiu communicated with the other people but the results were the same.

  The entire village was searched but there was nothing weird about it.

  The rest of the people started gathering and Lu Jiu told them about Ming Shu and An Zhiling. Some people sized Ming Shu up curiously but didn’t look at her for long. They needed to find their boss.

  “What should we do now?”


  “Is boss not here?”


  “Even if he is not here, there is someone missing. This place is strange.”


  “The demon-seeking stone has no reaction……”


  Ming Shu didn’t restrain her demon aura in the past and that was why she was detected by Jian Ying’s demon-seeking stone. After that, Jin Dongyi kept telling her that she needed to restrain her demon aura when she go out so now, demon-seeking stones couldn’t sense her presence.

  “That place……” An Zhiling suddenly pointed somewhere. “I remember that when I came here, there was a stone lion…… We splited over here.”


  Everyone looked at the place An Zhiling was pointing.

  There must be a house there last time but it was demolished now. You could see the entire place in a glance. Only the stone lion was left outside.

  To have a stone lion like this in this village, this house must have belonged to a rich family.

  –


  Dark, damp and smelly.

  Ming Shu stood in front of a pool. The buildings around them were all ancient.

  Lu Jiu suggested that they go to the place where the stone lion was. The moment Ming Shu stepped in, the surroundings changed.

  “Help…”


  Someone was shouting for help. It was An Zhiling’s voice.

  Ming Shu didn’t move. The voice got nearer and a person ran over. She fell on Ming Shu, “help, there is something chasing me……”


  Ming Shu plucked a branch from the tree beside her and An Zhiling’s words got stuck in her throat. She looked at Ming Shu in disbelief. Ming Shu pulled out the branch from her chest and smiled. She slowly opened her mouth, “let me kill it for you.”


  An Zhiling’s body immediately disappeared and changed into strings of demon aura. They ran away in a certain direction.

  Ming Shu looked over and then turned around and went in another direction.

  No one appeared again. There were no sounds too.

  Ming Shu walked towards the area where the fake An Zhiling came from. The windy corridor connected many houses together.

  Just as Ming Shu walked passed a house, a gush of strong wind struck her from the back. She blocked it with her branch. The person behind was thrown back a few steps.

  Hua Jian was wearing a white shirt with some dirt on it. He stared at her with a slightly dark expression.

  “Sigh, you want to kill me again.” Ming Shu smiled.

  Hua Jian looked at her. He said after some time, “how did you come in?”


  He didn’t know why he could tell that she was not a fake person at one glance.

  No matter what, when he saw her smile, he knew that she was real.

  Ming Shu carried her branch over, “looking for you to help me buy snack.” After all, I am very poor now.”


  Hua Jian: “.……”


  The character setting was not allowed to be violated.

  F**k! She came here to find him so that he can buy snacks for her! Is she crazy!

  Hua Jian felt that he could register for the galaxy’s book of records for being able to not violate his character setting for so long.

  After cursing in his heart, Hua Jian said calmly, “the demons here are not easy to deal with. Follow me. Don’t run away.”


  He turned around and walked into a house at the side. He signalled for Ming Shu to follow him.

  Ming Shu raised her eyebrows and walked up the steps. “Do you think that demons are delicious?”


  I don’t know, you want to eat?” I can catch one for you! If you don’t finish it, don’t leave!

  Ming Shu shook her head. I don’t eat things that can talk.

  She scanned the room. Hua Jian might have stayed here for some time already. There were things placed in the table.

  Ming Shu didn’t touch them and found a place to sit down. She started saying her criteria, “if you give me snacks, I will tell you where is the demon you are trying to find. How about that?”


  Hua Jian looked at her. “I will give it to you when we get out.”


  “No. I want to eat now.”


  Hua Jian: “.……”


  Am I suppose to create and make them appear magically!

  You are a demon. Why the hell are you eating snacks! Will you die if you don’t eat!

  “I don’t have any.”


  “Then find it yourself.”


  “…”


  Is it still okay to strangle her now?
