Chapter 37.2
Chapter 37.2
“Are you a ghost?” At that moment, Cheng Qi’s mind was suddenly filled with many things, and then he realized that the woman in front of him was already dead. Then, the person standing here now was a ghost.
Cheng Qi’s scalp suddenly went numb when he discovered the identity of the other party. In the past, people often used to scare him with ghost stories. Every time, he would be frightened to the point where he dared not sleep all night. Now that he had really encountered it, the fear in his heart was still unbearable. The only good thing was the female ghost in front of him was different from what those people described.
The woman in red immediately cried miserably upon hearing this, “To be honest, the little girl’s name is Tan Chun. I was originally the daughter of an ordinary farmer’s family. The bullies in the town saw that I was beautiful, so they came to my house to rape me. When they wanted to marry me, my father didn’t agree and was beaten to death by them. How could I marry a beast who had the hatred of killing my father? So, on the day I got married, I committed suicide by hanging myself from the beam at home. However, my resentment persisted, and I have been living in the world.”@@@@
Cheng Qi looked at the female ghost with a strange expression. Most of the fear in his heart had disappeared. He waited until the other party finished speaking before saying, “No, what I saw was that you robbed a man and went up the mountain, trying to force him to stay. That man secretly had an affair with one of your subordinates and pretended to marry you. On your wedding day, the two of them teamed up to kill you, the female demon. And your name is not Tan Chun, your name is Tan Eyu.”
Hearing the other party tell her the most hated and embarrassing thing in her life, Tan Eyu’s face twisted uncontrollably, “You brat, how do you know this?”
“Because I just gave you a soul contract, and now I am the master and you are the slave, so you can’t hide anything from me.” Cheng Qi had already sensed that this female ghost wanted to kill him, or to be precise, she wanted to eat him.
When Tan Eyu heard this, she immediately exploded. She jumped up and pointed at the other person and yelled, “You little bastard, do you know who I am? I was the overlord of Fengtang Village when I was alive. You are dreaming about asking me to be your slave. It was you who attacked me unexpectedly just now. Do you really think that I can’t beat you? Believe it or not, I will kill you, then pulled out your tendons, peel off your skin, eat your flesh, and drink your blood.”
After the female ghost finished cursing hysterically, Cheng Qi calmly reminded her, “No, if you hurt me, your soul will immediately disperse, and you will never be reincarnated.” After Cheng Qi said this, the female ghost finally couldn’t bear it anymore.
She broke down and shouted, “Unlock this soul contract for me.”
“I can’t solve it. I just learned it. I have to ask my young master to solve it,” Cheng Qi said honestly. He just gave her a contract out of desperation, but he hadn’t learned how to undo it yet.
Li Tianyan raised his chin and asked Cheng Qi, “What’s going on with this ghost slave?”
Cheng Qi immediately explained to him, “Her name is Tan Eyu. She was the female village leader of Fengtang village during her lifetime, and she kidnapped a man. Then, that man and her subordinates teamed up to kill her.”
“No need to say this.” Seeing that he actually told others such a shameful thing, Tan Eyu jumped to her feet and yelled angrily.
“But I can’t hide it from the young master.” Cheng Qi blinked innocently.
Tan Eyu was so angry, she almost broke a silver tooth. This little bastard must be deliberately retaliating against her, “Let’s talk about breaking the contract.”
“Oh, by the way, young master, do you know how to break the soul contract?” Cheng Qi finally remembered something important after being reminded by her.
Li Tianyan stared at the female ghost Tan Eyu for a while, and suddenly a cold smile appeared on his face. This smile actually made Tan Eyu, who was once the leader of Fengtang Village, tremble in her heart when she saw it.
Note: about the female ghost’s name, it was actually 譚鱷 – Tán è: Tan Crocodile. Because it sounds so awkward to only use ‘Tan E’, I thought about changing it a little.
I kept thinking about it and finally chose鳄鱼 – Èyú: another word for crocodile. So, in here, her name would be Tan Eyu, which is much better and easy to spell.
Thanks for reading^^
