Chapter 58 Nightmare
“Hello~”
While Liu Haoyu was stunned, Qin Liu shook him again and said.
“Are you really okay?”
“No.”
This time, Liu Haoyu finally woke up completely.
Qin Liu disappeared again.
This strange phenomenon left Liu Haoyu confused for a while.
Why could he see Qin Liu? Was it related to the strange blood-red iron door just now?
Liu Haoyu couldn’t figure it out, but Qin Liu said.
“So are we ready to go back? There shouldn’t be anything else here.”
Because Liu Haoyu was by her side, Qin Liu was not so scared now.
Even though she was startled when she accidentally got separated from Liu Haoyu, she felt much better now.
Liu Haoyu looked at the haunted house where the resentment was gradually subsiding, and said.
“Indeed, it’s almost time to go back and rest, and Hong Yu is about to give up.”
As he spoke, Liu Haoyu took out another red jade and said to Qin Liu.
“Come in.”
“You’re making me like a Pokémon!”
Although she complained verbally, Qin Liu still got into the red jade.
As for the previous red jade, it was completely polluted by resentment, turned into dust, and scattered with the wind.
After getting on the motorcycle, the man and the ghost returned to the haunted house.
Liu Haoyu lay on the bed and closed his eyes.
But soon… that blood-red iron door reappeared before his eyes.
So he opened his eyes again.
Liu Haoyu finally understood what those people mentioned by Old Deng had experienced.
That blood-red iron door, which made his limbs ice-cold just by looking at it, was constantly haunting his mind.
This meant that he had been entangled by some supernatural event, and if he didn’t do anything, he might also end up dead.
“Mmm~”
While Liu Haoyu was thinking, the girl’s gentle voice echoed in the room. She was like a tired hamster, lazily saying.
“Still not sleeping?”
“By the way, aren’t you a ghost? You shouldn’t need to sleep, right?”
Hearing Liu Haoyu’s words, Qin Liu, who was floating in the air and had just closed her eyes, immediately sat up.
She almost forgot that normal ghosts shouldn’t need to sleep.
So after thinking for a moment, she said.
“Maybe I’ve kept the habit from my previous life. Even if I’m not sleepy, I want to sleep.”
Liu Haoyu didn’t expose Qin Liu. After all, if she wasn’t sleepy, what was that yawn just now?
He smiled and closed his eyes again.
Soon, he fell into a deep sleep.
—
Time came to the next day, and Qin Liu woke up from her dream.
This little ghost yawned and looked blankly at the sun outside the window.
“Is it afternoon already?”
She rubbed her eyes and changed from lying down to floating upright.
Because she was a ghost, she didn’t need to wash up.
After all, in her ghostly state, she had no normal life activities, and couldn’t have any metabolism.
As for why she could eat…
Ask God about that.
She was just a little ghost and didn’t know that much.
Qin Liu looked at Liu Haoyu, who was still sleeping, and walked over.
But at this moment, she found that the man’s expression was ferocious, and his forehead was covered in sweat, as if he had had a nightmare.
“Is he having a nightmare?”
Qin Liu muttered to herself. Although she didn’t know what was going on, given his state, it was better to wake him up.
“Hey! Wake up! The sun is so high, it’s getting into your pants!”
After Qin Liu shook him like this, Liu Haoyu finally woke up.
His breathing was a bit chaotic, and he looked at Qin Liu blankly, as if confirming something.
Qin Liu naturally noticed Liu Haoyu’s gaze. His direct gaze made her a little confused and worried.
Wait?
Could it be that he could see her?
Soon, she shook her head again.
It’s impossible. If he really had some means to see her, he would have used it long ago, not waited until now.
He was probably just dazed from the nightmare.
Liu Haoyu suppressed his uneasy heart and made his breathing calm again.
After falling asleep, he dreamed of that rusty red iron door again.
Moreover, the door kept emitting a very tempting signal, as if luring him to enter.
Although one can only overcome fear by facing it, as for this door.
Facing it is not facing fear, it’s courting death.
But even though he could clearly see the door, Liu Haoyu couldn’t do anything.
As long as he looked at it, an inexplicable, irresistible panic would take root in his mind.
Even more chilling was that although the door didn’t move, Liu Haoyu felt that the door was constantly approaching him.
And the closer it got, the wider it opened.
As if to devour Liu Haoyu.
Fortunately… he woke up.
What appeared before his eyes was not that strange blood-red iron door, but a very beautiful girl.
In just a second, the girl disappeared again.
“Thanks.”
“Ah…” Qin Liu was a little confused, but she still accepted Liu Haoyu’s thanks: “You’re welcome.”
“Do you want to go to the city with me later?”
Hearing Liu Haoyu’s invitation, Qin Liu’s small eyes sparkled.
“Is it really okay?!”
“Of course,” Liu Haoyu put on his shoes and continued, “Let you see the world. It’s boring to stay at home all the time, isn’t it?”
“That’s for sure!”
Qin Liu nodded in agreement and said excitedly.
“Let’s go now?”
“Yes, I’m a bit hungry, so we can grab a meal.”
Since this haunted house didn’t even have a stove, even if Liu Haoyu wanted to cook, there was no place to do so.
Although he could dig a mud stove in the abandoned garden in the backyard, it was too much trouble. It would be better to ride a motorcycle to the city to eat.
At the same time, he had some things to do in the city.
Qin Liu was fine in all aspects, but the red wedding dress she was wearing was too conspicuous. It would be better to change her clothes.
Like a JK sailor suit.
Besides that, he also had to go see Old Deng. Even though this strange red iron door had entangled him, he was not the type to just wait for death.
“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s go, let’s go.”
Qin Liu, as if hearing a roommate invite her to eat, had already set her mind on how to extort Liu Haoyu.
After all, this could be considered compensation for going on a mission together.
They had gone through life and death together, so what was wrong with asking for more reward?
On the way, while Qin Liu was thinking about what to eat, she found Liu Haoyu’s motorcycle stopped in front of a women’s clothing store.
“?”
She silently raised a question mark and watched the man walk into the women’s clothing store.
Although she didn’t understand what Liu Haoyu was going to buy, Qin Liu still followed him.
Then, she saw the man start to rummage through the clothes racks.
Seeing this, Qin Liu shrugged.
Is he buying a gift for a girl?
Judging by the appearance, it should be for Deng Xiaolin.
