Time travel: Are you as professional as him in eating dog food?

Chapter 48 The 'prisoner' who was frightened into a koala by a 'ghost'

[Hey, hey, hey~ Host, this is the maximum limit I can give you, what else do you want, dear~]

"What are you kissing? Why was the previous story so rewarding? Why is it so reduced this time? You are being embezzling. Be careful or I will sue you..."

Wen Baixu pounded the table with an impatient look on his face. If you knew him, you would think he was complaining about injustice, but if you didn't, you would think he was going crazy.

[Host, the reason why I was able to offer a high price of 10 pills before was because his story was passed down by word of mouth and was well known to everyone...]

"That's right, didn't you hear it?"

[There is only one person for this. If it weren’t for this one person, I wouldn’t even want to give 0.5.]

"But the details of that story were also told by the male ghost who possessed me, and according to what you said, that was only what he said, and I just relayed it, so you..."

[Hmm~ That makes some sense, but...]

Wen Baixu stopped hammering the table and waited quietly for the response in his mind.

[But since neither of us can agree, let's play a game.]

"what?"

The young man asked in confusion

[Of course, it's to find the truth! Since you can hear it, this should not be a coincidence. This system is bored, so I'll play with you, the host. Let's find the truth and explore the dog food behind the truth. How about it~]

There is a continuous and happy sound in my mind, as if it is looking forward to it.

Wen Baixu slowly raised his hand, supported his chin, and thought for a moment.

"So how do you want to play?"

[Of course~ the host is going to find the truth~ to see if he can prove the truth of this matter. If he can find the dog food in the story, that would be the best. If he can trigger memories, that would also be great. If successful, 20 pills, how about that~]

"Okay, okay~ But... then where should I go..."

Just as Wen Baixu was about to ask what was in his mind, a name suddenly popped up in his mind.

"Ruyifang"

[It seems that you are not stupid after all! That is the source of everything]

"Then how can I...get in? That's not a brothel. It's a serious place."

Wen Baixu muttered in a low voice

[That's your business, host. This system is the worst at thinking.]

After the conversation was over, the system's voice completely disappeared from Wen Baixu's mind. Although his mind was originally highly focused, he was completely distressed by the system's passing of the buck.

After a while, the young man pulled his hair in distress. He couldn't think of any useful information in his head, so he had to resign himself to his fate and walked to the bed, fell into the pillow, and fell asleep...

He slept soundly for the whole afternoon until the night completely enveloped the entire sky. The person on the bed showed no signs of waking up until the door of the room creaked open.

The man on the bed frowned and slowly opened his eyes. However, because he was too sleepy, the dark scene forced him to close his half-open eyes again. Until he smelled a fragrance.

The man on the bed seemed to be following his body's instincts. It could also be that the skewers he had in the afternoon were not enough, and he felt a little hungry. He used both hands to sit up with his eyes closed, sniffed the smell, and followed the direction of the smell with his soft legs and feet to feel for it.

It was not known whether he was extremely lucky or for some other reason, but he did not bump into any stool or table legs and easily came to the place where the smell came from. His nose moved again, and his hand followed his instinct and reached forward, landing right on a person's shoulder.

Just as he was about to take a step closer to the smell, he felt the candlelight flicker towards him, and then he heard an earth-shaking scream and a trembling voice.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ~ There’s a ghost!!!!”

"Is there a ghost?"

These two words rang in the boy's ears like a piece of terrible news. He woke up immediately, waved his hands, and hit the front.

The movement was so swift that it seemed to have exhausted all his courage in his life. Moreover, his swinging speed was also extremely fast and without any rules. In his memory, it seemed that he had hit several places on his cheeks.

Just as Wen Baixu was waving his arms nervously, he heard another cold voice in his ear.

"Is this your gift to welcome me as your teacher?"

As soon as the voice fell, the excited boy slowly stopped what he was doing. He didn't react for a while and tilted his head as if he was trying to think from the depths of his brain who the voice belonged to.

"More! Come down!!"

Then a stern voice broke the silence in the room, calling back Wen Baixu's attention.

Wen Baixu straightened his neck and waited for his eyes to open completely, looking at a familiar figure in front of him holding a candlestick and hanging a

That was the person I had been with in a carriage with countless times in the past few months.

"Gu Yanming, you're back"

Wen Baixu looked at the person in front of him and couldn't help but feel excited, although he didn't know why he felt this way.

But then, by the candlelight, he saw the originally cold Gu Yanming. For the first time, his face was as black as the ash at the bottom of a pot. His beautiful eyes were fixed on the lower left corner, and his lips were tightly pursed.

Following his gaze, Wen Baixu was a little surprised for a moment. It turned out that the sounds he saw and heard just now were made by her.

"Qiuyu?"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk~" The hands that were tightly holding Gu Yanming did not loosen up despite his warning, but instead held him tighter and tighter. The teeth in his mouth kept chattering, whether because of the cold or fear.

Looking at Qiuyu who was holding Gu Yanming like a koala, and then looking at Gu Yanming who was holding a candlestick with a face so dark that it looked like he could crush it.

He quickly took the candlestick and held it aside, while pulling Qiuyu's arm, he said, "What ghost? I'm Wen Baixu. Do I look that much like a ghost?"

"Crackling~" His teeth were still making the sound of clenching teeth, but he did not relax the strength in his hands at all.

Wen Baixu looked at the increasingly dark face and had a bad feeling in his heart, but he stretched out his hand and pulled Qiu Yu down before the dangerous feeling erupted.

There was a "thump" and the man who was following the koala was dragged to the ground and looked at him unhappily, as if he had ruined his good deeds.

"Whoo~"

Wen Baixu raised his head and glanced at Gu Yanming's face in the candlelight. Seeing that he had finally calmed down a little, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"You slept till now?"

Then, under the candlelight, Gu Yanming also saw clearly the appearance of the boy opposite him and why his apprentice called him a ghost.

He was wearing a messy white undergarment, his hair was scattered on both sides, and the surrounding environment was pitch black, as if there was no light. He also unconsciously stuck out his tongue. What was he learning?

Gu Yanming looked at the person in front of him, especially the little pink tongue, and couldn't help but lower his head. The eyes that were originally looking at each other also moved away from this moment.

"Um~ What's wrong?"

Wen Baixu couldn't help but ask in confusion after hearing his questions and his strange behavior.

The person in front of him seemed to be thinking about how to respond after hearing his answer, but after a long pause, he just said "Come to my room tomorrow" and left without saying a word.

Watching the people in front of him come and go in a hurry and quickly disappear from his sight, Wen Baixu walked up to Qiuyu as usual, patted her shoulder with one hand, and wanted to talk to her as if they were on good terms.

But Qiuyu seemed to be in a very bad mood. She shrugged her shoulders, pushed his hand away, and walked towards the door.

The boy looked confused, but followed her closely, shouting as he walked: "No, stay and tell me what you are doing here, or I will tell you a story about Sadako, can you tell me~ Hey!"
