While the two were playfully fighting, they quickly finished flicking the ink lines and then left the morgue to report back to their master, Lin Fengjiao.
Lin Fengjiao was sitting at the head of the table drinking tea when she saw the two people barging in so rudely. She frowned and scolded them, "What kind of behavior is this, fighting and making a scene in front of the Ancestral Hall?"
"Ahem, Master, my aunt is waiting for me to go back to sleep, I'll go back first!" Seeing his master's expression, Qiu Sheng couldn't help but slip away.
"Okay, be careful on the road!" Lin Fengjiao waved.
Qiu Sheng was granted permission, feeling as if he had been granted a pardon. He returned to the courtyard, got on his bicycle, and headed towards the town.
In this era, owning a bicycle was a big deal, roughly equivalent to owning a car worth 300,000 yuan in modern society.
Qiu Sheng's family was well-off, but he had been in poor health since childhood. His parents sent him to a mortuary to become Lin Fengjiao's disciple and learn Taoist magic, hoping to improve his health.
He hummed a little tune as he rode his bicycle toward Renjia Town.
Although it was late, he had walked this ten-mile-long road countless times since he was a child, and he would never get lost even with his eyes closed.
Suddenly, a woman's weak cry for help came from ahead.
"Help! Help!"
Um?
Qiu Sheng was a man who would stand up for justice. When he heard the woman cry for help, his blood boiled and he immediately rode his bicycle over to her.
Sure enough, not far ahead, he saw an old night watchman molesting a beautiful woman in white!
"You beast, let go of that beautiful woman! Let me...save her."
Qiu Sheng couldn't stand it any longer. He dropped his bicycle and rushed over, quickly defeating the night watchman who had harassed the woman with a few punches and kicks.
"Young lady, are you alright?"
After chasing away the pervert, Qiu Sheng excitedly rubbed his hands together and went forward to help the beautiful woman up.
"Ouch!"
Unexpectedly, the beautiful woman pretended to be weak and collapsed into Qiu Sheng's arms.
Instantly, he was embraced by a warm and soft body.
That incredibly elastic feel...
Qiu Sheng, a vigorous young man, got an erection right then and there!
"Girl, are you... are you alright?"
He was a decent man, so he swallowed hard and helped the beautiful woman up.
Waaaaah!
The beautiful woman said with a sob in her voice, "My name is Dong Xiaoyu. Thank you for saving me, young master. Otherwise, I would be in big trouble today. Could you take me home? My home is nearby."
"Of course, no problem!"
Qiu Sheng immediately agreed and took Dong Xiaoyu home. There was a mansion in the desolate mountains with a plaque that read "Dong Mansion".
In reality, the so-called mansion is just an old, abandoned house that has been transformed into a luxurious mansion, resembling a wealthy family's home.
Although Qiu Sheng had studied Taoist arts with Lin Fengjiao for over ten years, he was only at the second level of Qi Refining. His knowledge was shallow, and coupled with his lustful desires, he failed to notice anything unusual for a time.
This Miss Dong Xiaoyu is not human at all, but a female ghost.
This afternoon, before opening the coffin, Lin Fengjiao, as is customary, had Qiusheng and Wencai offer incense to the surrounding graves to avoid disturbing the neighbors.
Little did anyone know, when the handsome Qiu Sheng was offering incense to the female ghost Dong Xiaoyu, he made a few flirtatious remarks and was immediately targeted by the ghost.
So, that very night, the female ghost came to repay his kindness.
"Alright, young lady, now that you're home, I'll be going now."
"don't want……"
Dong Xiaoyu held Qiusheng's hand, extremely reluctant to part: "It's late, young master, why don't you stay here for the night before you leave! Let me properly thank you for saving my life!"
Qiu Sheng waved his hand: "No need, let's talk about it another day."
Dong Xiaoyu was taken aback for a moment, then a charming smile appeared on her face: "Okay, we'll talk about it another day."
So, Qiu Sheng followed him into the house in a daze.
Just then, a torrential downpour began, making it impossible to leave.
With a beautiful woman by their side, the two unknowingly traveled from the living room to the boudoir, and then to the bed.
A thorough exchange ensued.
It was quite a long time before Qiu Sheng finally got out of bed, still feeling dazed.
She left, her hands supporting her waist, looking extremely weak.
Clearly, he was completely drained.
I continued riding my bicycle towards Renjia Town. After returning home, I went straight to sleep and slept until noon.
………………
It was the third watch of the night, deep and quiet.
