household.""Nonsense, she's Little Empress... Ugh, so hot, so hot, pass me the chopsticks, I need to flip the noodles..." Dabao responded, "The Emperor is so fond of her, naturally everyone has to cat..."Old Woman" is my brother's nickname for the old lady, but she's really something else. When she gets started with her dirty jokes, she puts the young people to shame.

She felt my pulse and said the signs of miscarriage were gone. She then asked if I had any vaginal bleeding these days, and I blushed and shook my head.

"That's good then, it's still best not to move houses recently, wait until the spiritual fetus settles down before we can do anything. Do you understand"

I blushed and replied, "How could I possibly do it alone..."

The old woman was taken aback for a moment, then let out a sly, mischievous giggle: “Looks like another innocent little girl fooled by a male ghost...”

The word "deceive" sounds a bit harsh.

"At first, you were scared, weren't you Then he cared for and loved you, and you weren't afraid anymore. Now you're even obediently carrying his child" The old woman chuckled. "That's what I mean, a man's words can't be trusted, let alone the words of a ghost…"

What about ghosts

“Normal ghosts don’t have much emotion. A ghost with emotions means it has strong attachments. Such ghosts are very smart, incredibly smart. They can mislead people, which is why we have the idiom "ghost stories abound." Our ancestors taught us that what ghosts say, cannot be trusted, cannot be trusted…” She mumbled as she trembled and sorted herbs.

In that case, my heart has also been captivated by Jiang Qiyun

A mewing sound, like a baby crying, reached my ears. I couldn't help but feel a chill run down my spine as I turned towards the door.

The cat spirit behind the door emerged from a cloud of black mist. It was carrying something in its mouth and ran straight to the old woman.

This is a black cat as black as ink. It was the old woman's most loyal companion, and even after death, it continued to guard her house.

I took a step closer, and saw what it had coughed up onto the ground — a finger, painted with bright red nail polish!!

"Ah——!!" I screamed in fright.

The old woman's face was grave. She reached out and stroked the black cat's head, muttering, "Where did you find this... is that right... Well, there are more and more of them lately... Go on, put this back where you found it..."

The black cat picked up the finger and vanished into the night through the crack in the door, transforming into a cloud of black smoke.

"Xiao Qiao... there have been more and more strange things lately, making me feel like something big is about to happen… The two of you are still young and inexperienced, so be more careful…" The old woman instructed me in a hoarse voice.

I nodded silently. As I walked out of the shop, a gust of wind sprang up on the ground behind me, making the back of my neck prickle with the feeling of being watched.

》》》

There's a large undeveloped area behind our school, left for future expansion.

There was a hillside and a small grove of trees, jokingly called Lover's Hill and Pig Forest.

Lover's Hill, a place where students hold hands and kiss. And behind it is Boar Forest, ahem, supposedly named after the frequent sounds of grunting like killing pigs.

My lips twitched. What kind of description was that A pig-slaughtering gasp

"How did you know that" I asked.

Song Wei smirked slyly and quietly pointed to a girl in the front row corner.

"There's a rumor that Zhao Xiaoru is doing this! Look, no one in class even pays attention to her..."

Zhao Xiaoru appears to be very solitary, but her appearance and temperament are average. In the beauty-filled news department, she is unremarkable. She also seems honest and not like someone who would do such a thing.

"Don't spread rumors around, it could be false information! It would seriously damage a girl's reputation!"

Song Wei curled her lips, unconvinced. There's no smoke without fire; she thought Zhao Xiaoru must have something to hide.

That afternoon, as soon as we got out of the teaching building after class, we saw Zhao Xiaoru taking a phone call and hurrying towards the back mountain.

Song Wei's eyes gleamed, she grabbed me and said, "It must be taking on a job! Don't believe me Let's go see for ourselves!"

"What's so interesting about this" I'd learned my lesson, even if Zhao Xiaoru really had something going on, I wasn't going to get involved.

Recently, encountering ghosts has become a daily occurrence, and inexplicably, I've attracted jealousy from people in the circle. My brother and I have decided to become turtles hiding their heads.

Song Wei wouldn't budge. She insisted on dragging me to see for myself, proving the rumors weren't false.

The Lovers' Path on the hillside, even at midday, couples would sit together to have lunch. The sweetness of their affection made those around them feel a bit nauseated.

Behind Lover's Slope is a small grove of trees. It's called a "small" grove, but it's actually quite large.

Most people's activities are only visible on the edges, because inside there are overgrown weeds and a fence blocking the way.

Zhao Xiaoru walked into the small grove, head bowed. Song Wei let out a sneer and said, "Sure enough, not a good bird."

As expected, there were quite a few condoms scattered along the edge of the woods. Song Wei jokingly said, "This place is like a battlefield, with so many little swimmers meeting their end!"

She was being indiscreet, so I slapped her hand away. She pouted but didn't say anything more.

After Zhao Xiaoru entered the small grove, she didn't stop. She seemed to have a very clear destination in mind and kept walking forward. We only saw a man impatiently waiting for her beside the barbed wire fence when the weeds were almost waist-high.

"How come it's so slow!" The man seemed impatient and pulled out his phone directly, saying, "How much via Alipay I'll transfer you the money! I have classes this afternoon, even if I want to enjoy myself more, I can't..."

Zhao Xiaoru didn't say anything, took out her phone and received the money.

That man reached out to embrace her rather hastily. Zhao Xiaoru stopped his hand and said, “It’s broad daylight, someone might come by. Let's go inside instead. There's a secluded place inside…”

We hid behind a tree and saw two people squeezing through a hole in the barbed wire fence. Song Wei immediately followed them, even pulling out her phone to take pictures.

I immediately grabbed her. Behind that barbed wire fence was the school's restricted area, with high-voltage towers. Students weren't allowed in there normally, and it was said that any student who went in would be severely punished. It wasn't worth our while to break the rules and follow these wild ducks into danger!

But the wild mandarin ducks didn't go in too far, and we faintly heard a sound.

"Stop talking nonsense...hurry up..." The woman's laughter was very open and loud.

I felt a chill run down my spine. That woman's voice - I've heard it before!

She looks exactly like that college girl from the alley behind the bar!

Isn't she a soul-refining spirit who serves the Joyful Buddha Wasn't she a thing that Jiang Qiyun summoned to devour souls

Why is it here again——e. What do you mean 'old hag' I am a fairy goddess!"What is a fairy ladyI hastily stuffed tissue into my nose to stop the bleeding, silently reciting mantras to summon a minor spirit. There's somethi...
