Chapter 296 Pretending to be a ghost

Just as Zhuzhu was about to ask him what would happen if he did something else, she suddenly thought of a better way to tease them.

So she took out five or six white helium balloons and a white long dress from her space.

I glanced at the window of the room where Zhuzhu was.

At this very moment, the sky has been covered by a huge black cloth, as if by some unknown force. Aunt Moon, who was supposed to be on night duty, has also skipped work and disappeared.

Only a few stars remained, blinking forlornly, with the occasional cawing of crows drifting in from outside.

Leopard, don't you feel particularly eerie tonight? And didn't a few unburnt paper money just drift in?

Haha! Are you trying to say that it's Ghost Festival recently, you stuttering weirdo? The gates of Fengdu Ghost City have opened, and the ghosts inside have come to visit our human world.

Just as Er Lengzi was about to answer the leopard's question, he saw a white, unidentified object float past him.

Not only that, the unidentified white object was also carrying a stack of money meant to be burned for the dead.

Before Er Lengzi could even react to what was happening, he saw the blanket that had been placed in front of him suddenly fly up.

Ah! Ah! Ah! Who on earth did this? Doesn't she know that bullying people like this is a very bad thing?

The wine glass floating in front of Er Lengzi seemed to understand what he meant. So it poured all the wine in the glass onto Er Lengzi.

You! You! You! What are you trying to do, you wandering ghost?

I'm telling you, if you continue to tease me like this, your sins will be compounded, and you will fall into hell and never be able to be reborn.

If I were to be condemned to eternal damnation, would you, handsome man, be willing to accompany me? That way, I wouldn't be lonely in that world.

No, no, no! I'm just someone who's as ugly as can be. There are plenty of men in this world who are much better looking than me.

Why did you only come to me and not to them? Or have I attracted some unclean spirit?

Hmm! I think you're a very smart person! But why do the people around you call you a simpleton?

Ah! This? This? This? This is probably because I tend to stutter easily when I'm nervous, so everyone calls me "Silly Boy"!

Look at me, I'm so silly and I probably can't do anything right. How about this? Please, have mercy on me!

Hehe! That won't do! The reason I came to you is because I received orders from above. I must take you to the underworld before dawn.

Why do you insist on doing this? What benefit do you gain from taking me to the underworld?

After dragging you down to hell, I can be reincarnated! Oh, by the way! I think that really handsome guy you guys kidnapped is pretty good too!

How about this? I not only want to abduct you all to the underworld, but I also want to abduct that handsome young man to the underworld with me.

No, no, no! That won't do! If you take that brat Mu Long to the underworld, how are we supposed to explain it to our boss?

You have no idea how terrifying our boss's methods of torture are! Just look at the injuries on that kid Mu Long to see how ruthless our boss is!

Just as Zhuzhu was about to run to her side, Xiaodu stopped her.

Master, the man lying in front of you right now is not your uncle. Your uncle is currently disguised as one of Emperor Xia's trusted confidants.

Oh! How could this be? The person lying on the floor really looks like my uncle. Or maybe my grandma actually gave birth to twins when she had my uncle.

Before Zhuzhu could even react to what was happening, Er Lengzi, who had been standing in front of her trembling, walked over.

Haha! I didn't expect you, little girl, to still enjoy playing tricks on people?

If it weren't for a ray of moonlight suddenly shining in, I'm afraid I would have been tricked by you, you little rascal.

When Zhuzhu heard Er Lengzi say those words, she couldn't help but look out the window, where the once pitch-black rice paddies suddenly became bright.

The crow that had been cawing on the branch stopped for some unknown reason. All around was silent except for the sound of rushing water.

From this, Zhuzhu could conclude that there was a small river where the bandits were holding her, but there were many small rivers in her hometown.

Zhuzhu really had no way of determining her exact location. Otherwise, she could have secretly sent a message while the bandits weren't looking.

Hey! Even if I had the chance, how could I possibly pass the message on to my father and the others? I'm living in the 1970s now; passing messages isn't that easy.

As Zhuzhu was deep in thought about this question, a voice pulled her back to reality.

Haha! I really don't know how your little head is structured! You've actually learned that kind of fake skill of pretending to be a ghost!

How did you figure out that I wasn't a wandering ghost?

Haha! That's because I noticed a long shadow behind you when the moonlight came out.

Haha! So, little girl, don't you think I'm a genius?

Oh no! Master, run! Someone is standing behind you with a very long stick...
