Ming Shu turned impatiently. “Why are you following me?”
A pretty ghost was floating behind her. She was around twenty years old and appeared very normal. She didn’t look hideous.
The female ghost replied firmly, “You can see me.”
“So?” Ming Shu smiled. “Do you want me to redeem your soul? Do you have money? I don’t want paper money.”
“…”
The female ghost didn’t expect Ming Shu to be such a money-lover.
Ming Shu continued, “If you don’t have money, stop following me. If you do, I’ll kill you!”
Ghosts could be killed too.
The female ghost: “…”
“I have money!”
The female ghost hurriedly shouted.
Ming Shu paused and turned around.
“I really have money.” She finally saw someone that could see and talk to her. She mustn’t let go of this opportunity. “You’ll get money if you help me.”
“What do you need me to do? Kill someone? I don’t kill people.”
The female ghost’s face turned grim. “I’ll take my own revenge.”
She regained her composure quickly and gave a sad look. “Just help me tell my family members where my corpse is. Ask them to bring me home.”
Ming Shu thought for a moment. “How will they give me the money?”
“I’ll go to their dreams and tell them. Please help me,” the female ghost said.
She wanted to go home.
“If you can enter their dreams, why don’t you just tell them where your corpse is directly?”
“I can’t leave this place. My home is too far away.” She could only leave when her corpse left.
Ming Shu was very poor now. She needed money to buy snacks.
After thinking for a while, she agreed to the female ghost’s request.
For the sake of justice!
For snacks!
The female ghost was called Yu Jiao. She had an argument with her boyfriend so she ran out in a fit of pique.
Unfortunately, she met a bunch of kidnappers who abducted and tortured her. She died far away from her hometown.
Ming Shu brought Yu Jiao back to the Taoist temple. Yu Jiao was stunned to see the dilapidated temple. Was this a place to live in?
“Do you know how to clean up?” Ming Shu asked.
Yu Jiao shook her head.
“Clean up this place.”
“…” I just shook my head!
The young lady looked around the same age as her. She was always smiling, but Yu Jiao felt that she was frightening for some reason.
And this Taoist temple…
There was another temple nearby. She would always feel uncomfortable when she got near the temple but she didn’t have that feeling here.
Maybe it was because this place had been abandoned.
Yu Jiao didn’t dare to reject Ming Shu so she silently started cleaning up.
“When will you contact my family?” Yu Jiao asked Ming Shu who was sitting down and eating mantou.
“I can’t just call them and tell them where your corpse is, right? They will think that I’m the murderer.”
Yu Jiao agreed with her.
“What do you plan to do then?”
Ming Shu pondered for some time. “I don’t know. I’ll eat first and think later.”
“…” What do you mean by that!
Yu Jiao wanted to ignore Ming Shu, but she was the only person who could see and hear her after she got killed.
Due to Yu Jiao’s cleaning, the courtyard became uglier.
She stammered when she saw Ming Shu’s speechless gaze. “I said that I can’t do it.”
Ming Shu shook her head and went back to her room.
Yu Jiao: “…”
Why did she feel that the young lady brought her back to clean this place up?
For the next few days, Ming Shu stayed in the Taoist temple unless she needed to buy food.
When Yu Jia met her, she would either be eating or bathing under the sunlight or moonlight. She even said that she was absorbing the essence of the sun and moon.
Did she think that she was a demon?
Sometimes, Yu Jiao would leave the Taoist temple too. Ming Shu didn’t care where she went. The human and the ghost lived harmoniously.
Yu Jiao learned to do some simple cleaning after a few days. The courtyard was much cleaner than before.
“When are you going to help me?” Yu Jiao followed Ming Shu and squatted under the steps.
“Let me see…” Ming Shu looked up at the sky and pretended to count with her fingers. “After a few more days,” she continued with a serious face.
“Why?”
“Oh, I’m feeling uncomfortable. I can’t travel too much.”
“…”
Maybe she should find someone else for help.
…
Three days later…
Ming Shu finally took Yu Jiao out of the temple. They went to the place where she died.
The place wasn’t far from Wuliang Mountain. There were no roads on the mountain. Yu Jiao was abducted from the streets. When she woke up, she was already locked up in a mountain cave.
There was no one here.
No one could help her.
The only people she saw were those who abducted her.
They didn’t come every day. Once, they were drunk. When they came over, they…
Yu Jiao didn’t want to recall what happened.
Ming Shu climbed up the mountain and stood outside the cave. Someone had covered the entrance with dried leaves and branches. Ming Shu threw the dried leaves and branches away. A pungent smell wafted out from the cave.
The cave wasn’t big. A corpse lay in a corner.
Strangely, the corpse didn’t decay much. Yu Jiao said that she had been dead for almost a month and a half, but the corpse looked quite new.
Yu Jiao didn’t dare to enter the cave. She was afraid to see her appearance now.
Ming Shu looked around the cave. Cold air kept entering her body.
Yu Jiao’s corpse laid horizontally on the ground. She was naked. Ming Shu took the clothes at the side and placed them on the corpse.
Then, she cleared her traces and came out of the cave.
“Are you going to contact my parents now?” Yu Jiao whispered.
Ming Shu looked at her. “I will call the police now. The police will call your parents.”
If she contacted Yu Jiao’s parents directly, she would be in trouble.
“…”
Why was it different from her expectations again?
Ming Shu called the police after she went down the mountain.
The police arrived quickly. As the first person who discovered the corpse, Ming Shu was questioned.
It was suspicious for a young lady to come to the wilderness.
Ming Shu told them that she came to the mountain to find Lingzhi.
Some villagers nearby would come to look for Lingzhi so the reason was acceptable, though barely.
Ming Shu was questioned as a suspect but in the end, they cleared her. After all, when Yu Jiao died, she wasn’t here.
The police quickly discovered Yu Jiao’s identity. They contacted her parents.
Her parents rushed over in the middle of the night. When they saw Yu Jiao’s corpse, they cried in pain.
Yu Jiao stood beside her parents. She wanted to hug them, but her body kept passing through them.
She was at a loss. Her eyes were filled with anguish.
She was dead.
The last person to arrive was Yu Jiao’s boyfriend. He looked very tired. He stood at the entrance of the cave with a dazed look. After a long time, he went in.
“You must find the culprit!” Yu Jiao’s boyfriend grabbed the police and shouted furiously with bloodshot eyes.
“It’s all my fault!” Yu Jiao’s boyfriend suddenly grabbed his hair and cried. “If I’d given in to her, she wouldn’t have left. It’s all my fault. It’s all my fault…”
Yu Jiao stood beside him and wanted to touch him.
Her hand passed through his head.
Yu Jiao felt sad as she looked at her boyfriend. If she weren’t so stubborn, this wouldn’t have happened.
Yu Jiao’s boyfriend seemed to be able to feel her presence. He looked in Yu Jiao’s direction.
Of course, all he could see was emptiness.
Yu Jiao couldn’t control herself. She started crying.
Unfortunately, there are no what-ifs in this world.
