The Snail Princess and Her Benefactor

Hua Chao couldn't fall asleep for a while, and felt heartbroken when he saw Ling Mi sleeping soundly.

Suddenly, she felt a chill swirling in the dilapidated temple. Strands of cold wind penetrated through the cracks and penetrated into Hua Chao's bones.

Hua Chao was so cold that she hugged herself tightly, so that her body could feel a little warm.

But all I saw was a faint mist lingering at the gate of the dilapidated temple, and suddenly a human figure appeared with disheveled hair and tattered clothes whose color could not be distinguished.

Hua Chao had already recognized that this was the little ghost that had just escaped in the mountains.

How come this guy followed me, or did he just happen to pass by and come in to hide from the rain!

Hua Chao's heart was beating like thunder and drums. She didn't dare to move, and even dared not close her eyes, for fear that the female ghost would see her and discover her.

Hua Chao secretly prayed in his heart: "Can't see me, can't see me!"

"Miss, ... can you ... see ... me ... "

The trembling and cold voice went straight into Hua Chao's ears.

"call……"

The female ghost flashed and stood in front of Hua Chao.

"Well……"

A cold wind blew by, and the ghost girl's pale face came straight into Hua Chao's eyes.

"Miss,...can you see me!..." y stretched out a pair of slender and pale claws in front of Hua Chao and waved them back and forth.

The sound of Hua Chao's heart beating wildly reached his ears clearly.

"Boom thump... thump thump..."

"I can't see... I can't see... I can't see."

Hua Chao clenched his fists, tried to steady his breathing, and pretended to yawn.

"Ah!... I'm so sleepy... I'd better go to sleep quickly. We have to go down the mountain tomorrow!"

He turned over and decided to take the opportunity to stop looking at that pale face.

"That's strange. Miss, if you couldn't see me, how could you help me trip the ghost messenger just now in the mountains, giving me a chance to escape?"

The cold and sinister voice of a female ghost sounded faintly.

"Haha!... I just heard you calling out for your mother and crying out for injustice, and I couldn't bear it, so I tripped you. How come you don't even thank me? Are you planning to blame me?"

It seemed as if thousands of horses were galloping through Hua Chao's heart.

Before Hua Chao could turn around, he saw a flash before his eyes and saw that the female ghost had floated down and fell asleep beside him, with a lifeless and slightly swollen pale face facing Hua Chao.

A slight chill slowly spread to Hua Chao's cheeks, causing her, who was already curled up in a ball due to the cold, to shiver all over.

"Ah! ... Miss, I am wrong. You will not be able to bear it if I face you like this. So I'd better get up and talk to you!"

The female ghost found Hua Chao trembling all over, and realized that it was her own corpse odor that made the living unbearable, so she quickly stood up and floated on the wall of the ruined temple.

Hua Chao found this female ghost quite annoying. Why didn't she leave? Did she want to cling to him?

So he stopped sleeping and sat up to look for something that would scare the female ghost and make her retreat.

I came out to look for Yang Shilin, but I didn't expect to run into this thing before I even started looking. It was really bad luck.

I searched the small bag but didn't find anything that could scare away the sneaky things.

"Well! Why not light a fire? Maybe the little ghost is afraid of fire. This way it won't hurt her and can scare her so she'll leave."

Hua Chao found the flint given by the waiter, and the waiter told him how to use it. However, he didn't dare to use this thing that had never been used before, and he had to use it now.

Hua Chao shook the flint in his hand, and it lit up with fire. Seeing that there was already a fire burning in the dilapidated temple, perhaps there was still some firewood left by the previous people.

Hua Chao lit the fire and suddenly felt warm all over.

Ling Mi next to him seemed to feel a little warm even in his sleep, so he turned sideways and moved his body closer to the fire.

Hua Chao didn't dare to look in the direction of the female ghost again. He only hoped that she would see the raging fire and know to be afraid and leave the ruined temple.

"Miss, is it cold? I'd better dry my clothes. I'm soaked by the rain."

"call……"

Following the sound, a figure slowly floated down beside the fire.

"You have clothes to change, but we wandering ghosts really don't have any clothes to change into. The clothes I'm wearing are the ones I wore before I died. How pitiful! How pitiful! I'm a wandering ghost with no one to pay respect to me. The clothes I'm wearing are already tattered and in a state of disrepair, yet I still have to make do with what I have!"

Hua Chao secretly took a deep breath: "How come this guy is not only not afraid of fire, but also came over to warm himself by the fire? I wonder how much resentment this female ghost has, otherwise how can a ghost not be afraid of fire!"

Hua Chao added more firewood to the fire and sighed inwardly: "Ah! ... It's also my fault for being soft-hearted and ignoring things that I shouldn't have intervened in. Now I'm stuck with something like this. How can I get rid of her entanglement!"

"Miss, I am really helpless. Don't be afraid. I won't hurt you. It's a pity that you can't see me. I am also a pitiful person!... Woo woo..."

The ghost girl's shrill voice echoed faintly in the dilapidated temple, causing Hua Chao to get goose bumps all over his body, with every strand of his hair standing on end.

"I don't listen. . . . I don't look. I don't hear. ... "

Hua Chao thought to herself, "You female ghost, your voice is so unpleasant, so stop torturing your benefactor and leave! I don't ask you to repay my kindness, I just ask you to stop bothering me!"

Hua Chao threw the firewood stick in his hand out with all his strength: "Hey! ... You little mouse, you are not at home in the middle of the night, but come here to steal food. I will beat you to death!"

"Bang..."

Hua Chao got up and chased to the corner of the wall, reached out to pick up the stick, and began to search everywhere in the ruined temple.

He kept knocking on the ruined temple with a wooden stick, hoping to make some noise to scare away the female ghost.

"Sister! Why are you up here and there knocking all over the place instead of sleeping in the middle of the night? We have to travel tomorrow, so you should come back and get some sleep!"

Ling Mi was awakened by the knocking sound and mumbled in a daze.

But he just turned over and fell asleep again.

"Oh!... You go to sleep first. I saw a mouse and I'm afraid it will bite our packages. Chase it away and then I'll go to sleep." Hua Chao whispered to comfort her. Don't let Xiao Lingmi know, otherwise she would be scared to faint immediately.

Hua Chao carefully turned his head and looked towards the fire, hoping that the ghost would be scared away by his actions.

Seeing that the female ghost had disappeared from the fire, Hua Chao let out a sigh of relief, secretly delighted in his heart: "See! The little ghost is really brave. If she makes some noise, she will be scared and leave on her own. It's good that I don't have to think of ways to drive her away."

Shaking the firewood stick in his hand, Hua Chao walked slowly to the fire, sat where he had just sat, added some more firewood, and decided to go back to sleep.

Suddenly, a rat head dropped from midair in front of Hua Chao's eyes, blood dripping from its nose. …………
