Chapter 55 Good Stuff
He wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked around.
The small boat was still moving slowly on the river.
It seemed like a dream, but this dream was a bit too real and scary.
“Hehehe… today is Thursday… v me fifty…”
Qin Liu seemed to have dreamed of something, and she looked like she was sleeping very soundly, even with inexplicable silliness.
“I hope it’s just a dream.”
Liu Haoyu didn’t dare to think about what Qin Liu would be like if she completely turned into a guide.
Perhaps, as the Black Book said, the first thing she would do was to drag him into a coffin?
Thinking of this, Liu Haoyu’s body shivered involuntarily.
That was indeed too terrifying.
Was there no way to stop it?
Liu Haoyu shifted his gaze to the Black Book.
But unfortunately, he had teased it too much before, and now it didn’t seem to want to acknowledge him at all.
This made Liu Haoyu let out a sigh.
“Guest, we’re almost at the other side.”
The ferryman’s voice sounded in Liu Haoyu’s ear.
Because Qin Liu was asleep, the ferryman’s face was very relaxed.
“The river crossing fee is one hundred thousand…”
“Huh?”
Liu Haoyu was slightly taken aback, and then said.
“One hundred thousand? But I saw at the Yin-Yang Realm Personnel Management Center that it clearly stated the river crossing fee was 100 yuan.”
“Prices have gone up, haven’t they?”
The ferryman said with a fake smile.
“And don’t complain about the price. Look around, where else can you find a boat?”
Now Liu Haoyu understood a little.
This ferryman was definitely raising the river crossing price maliciously.
Even if prices had gone up, the river crossing fee couldn’t possibly have increased from 100 yuan to 100,000 yuan.
Moreover, they were asking for money halfway across the river. this was blatant robbery!
Seeing this, Liu Haoyu didn’t say anything else and took out a Zhenlei Talisman.
Robbery?
Only he would rob others, how could others rob him?
So Liu Haoyu didn’t tolerate the other party and said directly.
“See this?”
“Guest, this is honest business, and please don’t think I’m afraid of your little talisman.”
“How about this then?”
Liu Haoyu took out more than a dozen from his backpack, and also took out his mobile phone, which displayed the customer complaint center’s phone number in the underworld.
“…”
The ferryman suddenly felt that everyone he had encountered recently was strange.
A poor ghost with a flat chest, a madwoman who was an evil ghost, and now a robber with a mask.
This river crossing business was really difficult.
“Fine, you win.”
The ferryman resentfully rowed the boat to the shore. After all, it could withstand one Zhenlei Talisman, but it couldn’t withstand so many.
Ghosts should know when to adapt to circumstances.
Soon, the ferryman’s small boat stopped at the shore.
“Wake up, don’t sleep, it’s time to go.”
Liu Haoyu poked Qin Liu’s cheek, and the latter let out a soft murmur before slowly opening her eyes.
“Where is my hamburger…”
“Still thinking about eating?” Liu Haoyu said with a mix of amusement and helplessness, “We’re home, you know?”
“Oh…”
Qin Liu wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth, then leaned on Liu Haoyu’s back and continued to sleep soundly.
The latter could only scratch his head and then continued forward with Qin Liu on his back.
After passing through the Gate of the Yellow Springs, the two returned to the haunted house.
It had only been a few days, but Liu Haoyu felt like it had been an exceptionally long time.
After placing Qin Liu on the bed, he also lay down.
Although this place was very dilapidated and old, once he lay on the bed, all fatigue vanished.
An inexplicable drowsiness came over him, he hugged Qin Liu’s body and fell asleep again.
————————
Liu Haoyu slept until past nine o’clock the next morning in one go.
But even so, he still felt sore all over and very tired.
It was as if his body had gone out to exercise in the middle of the night.
He probably felt exhausted from lack of sleep, irregular sleep-wake cycles, and a trip to the underworld.
Liu Haoyu yawned widely and walked to the mirror. He looked at the man in the mirror with sunken eyes, pale face, and hair like a bird’s nest, and sighed again.
Qin Liu’s Yin energy had at least had some effect.
Looking at himself like this now, those who knew would attribute it to lack of sleep and Yin energy entering his body, while those who didn’t know would think he was suffering from kidney deficiency.
But if you think about it carefully… if he and Qin Liu exercised, wouldn’t it look like they were in the air to outsiders?
Thinking about it, it was indeed a bit inexplicably sad.
“By the way, where is that girl Qin Liu?”
When he woke up, Qin Liu was not in bed.
There was no trace of her in the room either.
She couldn’t have gone out, could she?
As Liu Haoyu was wondering, he heard the sound of running water from the direction of the restroom.
Was she bathing?
This was quite rare.
After all, Qin Liu, in her ghost form, didn’t usually need to bathe.
Perhaps after mastering the abilities of a guide, she decided to take a long-overdue bath?
Liu Haoyu didn’t think much about it and went to the outside of the restroom.
It was called a restroom, but this dilapidated house had no running water. To bathe, one had to fetch water from the first floor.
“Qin Liu, are you in there?”
“Eek!” A girlish scream came from the restroom, and she said repeatedly, “Yes, yes! Don’t open the door!”
“Understood.”
Liu Haoyu was not interested in peeking at a girl bathing. He was more curious about the reason for Qin Liu’s bath.
Qin Liu’s clothes were placed at the doorway, and Liu Haoyu subconsciously leaned closer to smell them.
There was no sweat smell?
Instead… there was a strange scent of Shivan flowers on the stockings.
“Alas…” The voice of the Red Gate sounded in Liu Haoyu’s ear, “What a pitiful man, kept in the dark about everything.”
“What are you talking about?”
Liu Haoyu turned his head and saw a young version of Qin Liu standing behind him with her arms crossed.
She said in a teasing tone.
“My waist and legs are sore, I’m listless, it feels like my body has been hollowed out…”
“Wait a minute?”
Liu Haoyu finally realized what was causing his inexplicable fatigue!
It turned out that Qin Liu had been ambushing him at night!
“Pfft!” The Red Gate couldn’t help but laugh, “You slept so soundly, just like the husbands in some adult movies. Qin Liu climbed on you five times, and you didn’t even wake up.”
“…”
Liu Haoyu’s mouth twitched.
He knew that his sleep had always been light before, didn’t it?
Logically, he shouldn’t have been so deeply asleep that Qin Liu could ride him five times without waking up.
And besides, if this little ghost wanted to do that kind of thing, couldn’t she just call him?
As Liu Haoyu was full of questions, the Red Gate spread its hands and said.
“Oh dear, this little girl is very reserved. Since you’re not making a move, naturally she can only use this method. By the way, do you want to see something good I have?”
“What is it?”
As Liu Haoyu muttered, his phone rang.
He looked closely and saw a video.
He saw Qin Liu, with vacant eyes and a flushed face, straddling him, looking down at him from above, with an indescribable expression on her face.
Her voice, devoid of warmth and fluctuation, echoed in the room.
“Not good… huha… not good… I originally wanted you to rest well, but now it seems, ha… it’s impossible…”
The sound of the girl’s panting made Liu Haoyu freeze in place.
And in the video, the girl continued to murmur.
“But it doesn’t matter… I love you the most… I will always be with you, whether in life or death, in any place…”
The video ended abruptly, leaving Liu Haoyu feeling a little unsatisfied.
And because of this stimulation, his body showed a very honest reaction, and he could only arch his back.
After all, if this damned gate found out that he had a reaction, it wouldn’t know how long it would mock him.
However, Liu Haoyu didn’t question where the video came from, but he could be sure that Qin Liu had used her guide’s form last night to neutralize the acid-base reaction with him.
The Red Gate walked up to him, tiptoed, and whispered in a voice only they could hear.
“Her situation is becoming more unstable~ You don’t have much time left for you.”
