Chapter 81 - Ghost Eyes

The old man was silent for a moment, clearing his throat, “If he really is the ghost king, if he wants to make a comeback and re-enter the chaos, there is no one in this world who can defeat him.”

Lu Yiming laughed when he heard the words, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, with a bit of mockery. “How do you know that he will be?”

The old man could hear the disdain in his voice, and felt weird, but he thought he was thinking too much so he forced down the thought. He explained, “Jinghe is the king of the country. The brutality raged during that political period. On the day of the fall of the country, he was stabbed to death with a sword and turned into a ghost. The sky changed dramatically, the sun and the moon eclipsed, it rained blood for three days and three nights. The entire capital, no matter if the people were innocent or they were rebelling, they all died overnight. For thousands of years, he has been the only one in the world who has been able to wander for so long and not disappear.”

Lu Yiming calmly stared at the old man, “He has been on earth for thousands of years. If he actually wanted to cause chaos, the world would definitely be in trouble, so why wait till today?”

He didn’t mean to refute, he was simply stating the facts.

The old man remained silent.

Lu Yiming looked away from the old man, “It was always a cause and effect relations.h.i.+p between humans and ghosts. Although they live on the same land and under the same sky, they don’t bother each other.”

The old man frowned. He thought those words were absurd and ridiculous. “Do not disturb each other? If they really just do not disturb each other, then why do we exist?”

Lu Yiming’s eyes did not change.

Are ghosts the scariest things on Earth?

No, it’s the human heart!

Not everyone can become a ghost after death, not every ghost can live forever, let alone that every ghost will hurt people.

All ghosts that hurt people will be punished by the rules, will face backlash, and will eventually experience the pain of having the skin peeled, their muscles cramping, their souls leaving for good.

If it weren’t for deep-seated hatred, how could ghosts just casually harm people?

It was a cause-effect relations.h.i.+p, those people deserved it.

Ah.

Lu Yiming stood indifferently and didn’t utter a word.

“Bring Xiaoang to investigate this matter,” In the old man’s heart, he was ultimately worried for his eldest grandson.

“For nearly a hundred years, grievanced ghosts have been running around and indiscriminately killing innocents. The best way to maintain peace between the two worlds of humans and ghosts without disturbing each other would be to find the ghost king and make a deal with him.” The old man said sincerely.

Otherwise, if this continues, the secrets of the ghosts cannot remain hidden.

Lu Yiming was silent for a moment, and finally opened his lips, “I know.”

“You were scolded by your grandpa today,” As soon as Lu Yiming walked into his room after handling everything and closed the door, he heard someone talking, but strangely, no one was to be seen at all.

Lu Yiming took out the charm from his pocket, muttered something in his mouth, and then made gestures on the charm with his fingers, without any change in his expression.

The surrounding scenes changed instantly.

Lu Yiming’s eyes were as if they had been opened, and he could clearly see things that ordinary people couldn’t see.

The man in bathrobe-style clothes was lying on the bed with his chest bare open, one hand on his chin, and some hair covering his eyes. The man’s face was very white. To be precise, every part of the man’s body was white, he looked at most twenty-five or six years old.

Had it not been for the wisps of yin on his body that made it hard for a monk to ignore, in the eyes of ordinary people, this might be just another ordinary man, but then again, if you don’t believe in Tao, or don’t have your ghost eyes opened, how could ordinary people be able to see ghosts?

Lu Yiming didn’t answer the man’s words, nor did he show any sense of discomfort because a man suddenly appeared in the room, instead, he seemed to be used to it.

Lu Yiming took off his outermost coat and threw it on the hanger next to him. He pulled his tie with his hands, looking a bit retched.

With a smile, the man admired the beauty in front of him who was undressing with relish, the collar in front of his chest was opened wider, and his posture was looking more and more attractive..

Lu Yiming took off his shoes, sat directly on the bed, and then laid down right beside the man.

The man laughed, as if he wanted to do something, he leaned forward with excitement. Before the man could touch the corner of Lu Yiming’s clothes, Lu Yiming pulled off the quilt and got below it in one go.

“…”

“Sleep!” Lu Yiming adjusted his pillow.

Why is he not even the least bothered?

Boring!

The man snorted with a little frustration.

Suddenly, the man seemed to have thought of something. He pulled out a scroll from behind which he didn’t even know where he got it from. Then he threw it viciously on Lu Yiming’s body and said fiercely, “Admit it, you still like this type?”

Lu Yiming opened his eyes, glanced at what the man had thrown on him, and then closed his eyes again, with no intention of replying to him at all.

The man became even angrier and kicked Lu Yiming aggrievedly. “Playboy!”

Lu Yiming’s eyes were still closed, and he said faintly, “That’s the ghost king’s lover.”

He thought the man could read between the lines. However, the man just paused for three seconds, then his eyes widened, and he exclaimed, “F*ck, how dare you like the ghost king’s lover?”

OK, maybe it’s better not to explain.

Time to go to sleep.

The wind blew heavily against the treetops, making a whirring sound. In the inky night, no one could make out what was in the darkness, only a vague outline of the surrounding trees.

The lights in the teaching building were all turned off, and the windows were crackling because of the blowing wind, adding a bit of mystery to the lifeless teaching building.

Only the dim lights from the stairs at the end of each section of the corridor were still on. No one had any idea how long the lights were there, they were always flas.h.i.+ng and there was an occasional buzz due to the flow of current.

Suddenly, a few mysterious figures sneaked in through the back door of the teaching building quietly, moving lightly but quickly.

It was a group of students, two guys and two girls.

The girl at the end of the group tied two ponytails and looked really timid, she was also really thin and appeared weak. She was tightly clutching the s.h.i.+rt of the guy right in front of her, when she whispered, “We’re really going to the roof? I am so scared.”

The other girl looked more arrogant and even despotic, she glanced back at the girl with two ponytails who was afraid of every movement, and sneered, “If you are so afraid, why follow us? Don’t think I don’t know what you are thinking about!”

“Hey, hey. Stop talking. Our purpose tonight is to verify whether the rumours are true, and not to quarrel.” The boy in the lead scolded, and then glanced back the next instant, half of his face was hidden in the darkness, “I heard that since Li Jianjun died, some cla.s.smates saw a white ghost on the roof the past few nights. We’re here today to verify if it’s true!”

The boy’s expression was somewhat contemptuous, and it seemed that he was not interested in ghosts, maybe he is there out of pure curiosity.

A group of people walked through the corridor and climbed up the stairs lightly, the function of the mobile phone flashlight s.h.i.+ning a meagre light, and the four of them climbed up to the roof without hindrance.

However, the gate of the rooftop has been locked by the school. Since the suicide incident, the school has been more stringent than before.

The boy walking behind seemed to be an expert in lock picking. He took out a piece of tin foil, which was about four centimetre long and a steel wire that seemed to be from a keychain ring.

Biting his phone in his mouth, standing in front of the lock, he twisted his body in awkward positions while his companions watched his series of operations.

With a “click”, the door opened.

The boy couldn’t help but sneer.

Pus.h.i.+ng the door open, the four of them walked out and looked around. Everyone seemed disappointed..

The whole place was nothing but flat ground. They looked up only to realize that even the moon was not out tonight, and it was pitch black.

Everyone was left speechless.

“Chey, I thought there would be something! Such a waste of my time, there’s nothing here at all.” The girl rolled her eyes.

The boy who was leading them also began to curse, swearing in his mouth, only the girl with ponytails remained silent from beginning to end, standing stiffly on the spot, her face was very pale, and beads of sweat were sliding down her forehead.

Seeing her like this, the other girl thought that she was just pretending to be weak, and was annoyed by her pretense. She folded her hands on her chest and sneered, “Look at yourself, even this scares you.”

The girl with two ponytails still didn’t dare to speak, as if she just realised what was going on, she continued to hide behind the boy who opened the lock, trembling, and said quietly, “Let’s leave quickly.”

Anyway, there was nothing on the roof, it’s boring, so they just left.

The girl with two ponytails looked ill, but at the moment when she stepped out of the roof she couldn’t help but look behind her once more, and she started trembling again.

She saw a female ghost in white standing there, her face was like chopped lean pig meat, her facial features were blurred, her long hair was draped down the sides, and her hand was holding the neck of another male ghost, the male ghost kneeling on the ground with a struggling look, like an ant that could not resist. The moment the door closed, the eyes of the double ponytail met the completely white eyeb.a.l.l.s of the female ghost, and she almost screamed in fright.

After finally leaving the teaching building, the girl with two ponytails took a deep breath, but her body continued to tremble, her teeth were chattering, and there was a chill down her back. She raised her head slightly to look at the rooftop, thinking of what she just witnessed.

That male ghost…

is the dead Professor Li…

Xiao Chen took off his shoes and stepped barefoot on the cool floor. The coolness penetrated through his feet and then his whole body. He took off his pants indifferently, and casually hung them on the clothes rail next to them.

Shaking his hair, unb.u.t.toning his s.h.i.+rt one by one from top to bottom with one hand.

Xiao Chen dipped his hand into the bathtub to test the temperature of the water, and felt that it was just right. He stepped in with his two white legs and sat down slowly, until his whole body was lying in the bathtub, feeling the warmness of the water and relaxing his muscles.

Perhaps he was really tired, his eyelids grew heavier the longer he was in the bathtub.

Xiao Chen, who had fallen asleep, was awakened by the sound of splas.h.i.+ng water, and seemingly saw someone stepping into the bathtub.

It was Jing Hezhi…

Jing Hezhi flung his robe and threw it on the ground. Fortunately, this bathtub is large enough to fit two full-grown men.

Xiao Chen adjusted his posture to make s.p.a.ce for the man to lie down.

However, Jing Hezhi directly laid towards him, with their skins touching each other. Just when Xiao Chen was confused, the man turned around, swapped his posture with Xiao Chen, so that the other party would lie on him.

Xiao Chen did not struggle during the whole process, and lay down obediently.

The man bit the child’s ear, squinted his eyes, and Xiao Chen didn’t know what he had thought of. He opened his mouth lightly, with a sense of coaxing, “From tomorrow onwards, I will accompany you to school.”

Xiao Chen hooked the man’s neck, smiling with much affection and muttered softly, “Okay.”
