You said you would tell fortunes, so you can catch ghosts and exterminate zombies easily?

Without waiting for Su Chen to react, the two teenagers pulled out a chair and sat down.

One of them dug into his pocket and said, "I have 7 dollars here, you pay the rest."

"Why?"

"At worst, you can just drop Li Ying off after school these two days and I'll walk behind."

"make a deal!"

The other boy searched his pockets and took out only two dollars.

"That's not right. I remember I brought more than thirty yuan..."

He searched all four of his pockets, but found only two dollars and a half. He was puzzled: "Did I lose it?"

“Hahaha, I didn’t expect that Ma Guowei you are poorer than me, hahaha.”

"Shut up!"

"Hahaha……"

"Believe it or not, I'll beat you up?"

"Come on, who's afraid of whom?"

The two of them quickly rolled up their sleeves.

Su Chen: "..."

He cleared his throat: "Are you sure you want to fight here?"

Ma Guowei paused and laughed dryly: "Yes, I'm sorry, we'll leave now."

He was held back.

"Mao Siyun, what are you doing?"

"Aren't you going to ask the master to help Li Ying catch ghosts?"

"Nonsense, of course I do, but do you have money?"

"You have a watch, you can pledge it. We'll bring the money tomorrow."

Ma Guowei finally came back to his senses, slapped his forehead, and skillfully took off his watch and handed it to Su Chen.

"Master, we don't have enough money. Can we leave the watch here as a deposit and bring the money back tomorrow?"

Su Chen looked at them with amusement.

But at the age of sixteen or seventeen, he was young, ignorant, simple and passionate.

He took the watch, looked at it, and returned it.

"Forget about the mortgage. I believe you won't owe me money."

Asking them to sit down, Su Chen said, "I think you two are indeed contaminated with some Yin Qi. It's not a lot, it just makes you a little unlucky."

"Bad luck?" Ma Guowei slapped his thigh and muttered, "I was wondering why I stepped in poop yesterday."

"Hahaha, you actually stepped on poop, hahaha, hahaha..."

Ma Guowei was furious: "I don't believe you haven't stepped on it!"

"I didn't have any, slightly."

Su Chen nodded: "Yes, you have eaten it."

Mao Siyun's laughter stopped abruptly.

He rolled his eyes and quickly retorted, "Nonsense, I didn't."

Ma Guowei looked at Su Chen, then at Mao Siyun: "Master, you didn't calculate this correctly? Then let's go."

"Hey, don't!"

"So the master was right? Hey, Mao Siyun, you really are crazy, huh?"

"Bullshit, bullshit, I didn't do that!" Mao Siyun met Ma Guowei's gloating gaze and took a deep breath. "That was when I was a kid. Things before the age of five don't count!"

"Mao Siyun, you've already eaten shit, how can you compare with me?"

"I tell you, as long as Li Ying and I..."

"You are not allowed to tell her, or I will beat you."

"I'm afraid of you~"

Su Chen: "..."

He raised his hand and knocked on the table to attract their attention before asking, "Tell me what's going on."

The two of them immediately started talking at once.

It turns out that Mao Siyun and Ma Guowei have liked Li Ying since high school.

Because she was a good student, the two poor students did not dare to confess their feelings to her. They could only secretly follow her and escort her home from school.

When the two saw each other, they thought the other was going to attack Li Ying, so they started fighting late at night during an evening study session.

No fighting, no acquaintance. Later, when one person was sick and asked for leave, he would specifically remind the other person.

Half a month ago, the two of them sent Li Ying home together again. From a distance, they saw Li Ying suddenly become manic and punch the wall. They were all shocked and rushed over to check.

"It's probably because we have too much Yang energy and the ghost is scared. We can just go over to Li Ying and she'll be fine."

"Yes, yes, but my hand was injured and I took sick leave the next day."

Su Chen asked, "How can you two be sure that it was evil spirits and not just her letting off steam?"

"Because the next time we noticed she was walking on tiptoe."

"That's right. When we went over there to scare the ghosts again, she fainted. This time she asked for two days off."

Su Chen nodded.

"So how many times did you see Li Ying being possessed?"

"Five times!" they said in unison.

Ma Guowei said depressedly: "We secretly slipped a note under her desk to remind her to see a master."

"I don't know if she's looked for him, but it seems like the situation is getting worse. Yesterday, she returned to school after taking three days off. Master, you wouldn't know how pale she looked."

Mao Siyun: "Yeah, pale, I feel like I'm going to faint in the next second."

"Li Ying didn't attend evening self-study yesterday. Her mother came to pick her up and she suddenly jumped into the river on the way home. Luckily we went over and helped pull her out."

"She's on leave again today, and we were just planning to skip evening study to go see her."

Ma Guowei said as he looked at Su Chen anxiously: "Master, so are you sure you can catch ghosts?"

Su Chen nodded: "Yes."

He was delighted: "Then can you come with us to Li Ying's house to catch ghosts?"

Su Chen took the quilt inside, came out and raised his eyebrows at them: "Lead the way."

"Uh-huh, this way."

The two were anxious and walked very fast.

When it was getting dark, Su Chen stood with them in a large yard.

Ma Guowei and Mao Siyun looked around and scratched their heads.

Someone asked quietly, "Do you know which room Li Ying's house is?"

The other one glared at him, "If you don't know, how could I possibly know? Don't we always just drop them off at the gate?"

Su Chen shook his head helplessly.

He walked towards the stairs: "Follow me."

"……what?"

"Ah what? Follow me."

The two followed Su Chen up to the second floor and came to a room in the middle of the left side.

Su Chen raised his hand and knocked.

"Who?"

Footsteps were soon heard from inside and the door slowly opened.

The house is not big and you can see the whole thing at a glance.

There was a shabby desk at the door, piled with textbooks and exercise books.

There was a washstand on the side with three washbasins on it.

Further in, there were double-decker iron beds on each side. The upper bunk was covered with floral cloth, so you couldn't see what was inside clearly, but the bedding underneath was neatly folded.

The person who opened the door was a woman in her thirties with a sallow complexion. Seeing them, her face was full of curiosity: "Who are you..."

"Auntie, we are Li Ying's classmates. Have you forgotten? Li Ying jumped into the river last night and we pulled her out together."

The woman then looked carefully at Ma Guowei and Mao Siyun, and finally smiled.

"It's you guys. I'm sorry, I was so flustered yesterday that I didn't have time to thank you. Thank you, thank you."

She hurriedly bowed and thanked him, which scared Ma Guowei and Mao Siyun so much that they jumped away immediately and waved their hands in bewilderment.

"You're welcome, it's my honor."

Su Chen walked sideways into the house.

The woman was startled: "You are... a teacher at school, right?"

"I'm sorry to have caused you to worry about our Xiaoying."

Ma Guowei hurriedly explained: "Auntie, he is not a teacher, he is the master we invited."

"Master?" The woman was stunned.

Mao Siyun nodded: "Yes, Li Ying must be haunted by a ghost, that's why she has been acting so abnormally recently. Let's ask the master to capture the ghost and she will be well soon."

The woman laughed dryly: "No, that can't be right? The doctor said that Xiaoying is under too much pressure from studying and has psychological problems..."

Mao Siyun was wronged: "Auntie, don't you believe us?"
