The Host in Quick Transmigration Always Wants to Break Her Character

Chapter 117 The Educated Youth Tricked into Going to the Countryside (11)

"Comrade Xia Lin, we're going to find the village chief to discuss moving our accommodations. Would you like to come along?"

After dinner, while everyone was preparing to leave the dining hall, a short, thin, fair-skinned male educated youth sat down in front of Lin Jingyi and asked him a question.

There were also three female educated youth and five male educated youth standing next to them.

After spending the day together, the group discovered that Xia Lin preferred to be alone.

Quan Biao originally wanted to curry favor with Lin Jingyi, but after being repeatedly rejected, he gave up the idea.

Quan Biao was considered one of the more handsome male educated youths. If he couldn't win Xia Lin over, the other educated youths had no interest in him either.

However, the group still wanted to show some concern for the pretty girl.

Since she hadn't mentioned going to see the village chief, the others went to find Lin Jingyi.

Lin Jingyi wiped his mouth and looked at the man sitting in front of him and the educated youth standing next to him.

"You guys go ahead, I'll stay there," Lin Jingyi said, and left without waiting for anyone's reaction.

Everyone looked at each other.

"Xia Lin, that house is really haunted!" Liu Jia recalled the nightmare she had last night, the female ghost she saw, and how Xia Lin, that fool, still wanted to live there.

Thinking that no one would accompany her in the future, and that the other two female educated youths didn't treat her well, they quickly stepped forward and pulled Lin Jingyi back.

In the original owner's previous life, the original owner was relatively soft-hearted and cared a lot about other people's opinions, so she tried to please Liu Jia in every way.

Tao Tao and the others disliked Xia Lin's subservient manner and naturally didn't want to talk to her. Liu Jia, having received favors from Xia Lin, shared them with the other two female educated youths, thus becoming close to them.

How can a relationship based on one-sided giving last?

Only when the forces are evenly matched and mutually restraining can things last.

Lin Jingyi didn't understand why Liu Jia had been clinging to her ever since she arrived, even though she clearly didn't want to have much contact with her.

"If you have a clear conscience, you have nothing to fear. So no matter what kind of demons or monsters are in the house, I am not afraid."

There were still some villagers in the canteen at that time, gathered around a few people eating melons.

Lin Jingyi didn't deliberately lower her voice, so people who were close by could hear her.

The villagers remembered that the group lived in the Ding residence, which aroused their curiosity even more.

There's not much entertainment in the countryside. It's already after work, and everyone has just finished eating, so they're all gathered around watching the show.

Several educated youths turned pale upon hearing this. What did Xia Lin mean? Had they done something wrong?

Few of the educated youth in the village thought that much about it. After hearing Lin Jingyi's words, an older woman looked around, then approached Lin Jingyi and lowered her voice, saying:

"That's not how it works. The ghost in that house is very fierce and will harm anyone."

After hearing what the older woman said, the expressions of the educated youths softened considerably, relieved that the villagers hadn't thought too much about it.

"Big sister, ghosts and monsters are not allowed after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Don't promote feudal superstition."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jingyi quoted a saying by a great man, his face serious and earnest.

The eldest sister wanted to try to persuade him further, but she fell silent after hearing what Lin Jingyi said.

His expression was unfriendly, and he was cursing inwardly, thinking that this little girl didn't know what was good for her.

But not wanting to be labeled as promoting feudal superstition, he had no choice but to leave reluctantly.

"Charlene, that's what the locals are saying, so let's move out together..."

By this time, the educated youth had given up trying to persuade Lin Jingyi. Liu Jia was so frightened by Ding Shiyao last night that she dared not sleep alone anymore.

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue trying to persuade Lin Jingyi.

"I already said I don't want to move anymore, so why do you want to drag me along?" Lin Jingyi didn't understand why Liu Jia wanted to take her with her, but she knew Liu Jia's character well.

Lin Jingyi didn't know why she did this, so he could only voice his doubts.

Liu Jia was taken aback for a moment by Lin Jingyi's directness.

"I... I just thought it wasn't safe for you to live alone in that house, and there were also bad rumors. It's all for your own good."

"fine……"

"I heard some comrades are looking for me?" Lin Jingyi stopped talking before he saw the village chief approaching.

After the village chief entered, he glanced at the group of educated youth and asked a question.

"Village chief, we want to change our accommodations." A timid young man, seeing that no one answered, spoke first to the village chief.

He had wanted to change rooms ever since he heard Master Zhao tell that story. He had spent one night in that house and was frightened, and now he had the opportunity to choose a new place to stay.

Naturally, we must seize the opportunity.

Upon hearing this, the village chief looked knowing, as if he had expected it.

The educated youth who came before also wanted to stay in that house, but after staying one night, they clamored to leave and didn't work at all until the afternoon.

The situation on the second day was similar to that of the two female educated youths this morning; no one went to work in the fields.

Since everyone was doing the same thing at the time, there was no situation where people couldn't eat if they didn't work.

However, this morning only two female educated youths were like this. Everyone else had the same nightmares but still worked. They had reason to suspect that the two female educated youths were deliberately trying to slack off, so they didn't give them lunch.

This morning, the village chief saw that the group looked frightened and hadn't slept well, and he was already prepared for them to ask to move to another place.

Unexpectedly, the group held on until the afternoon.

Afterwards, the village chief counted the people who wanted to change their residences. Seeing that everyone wanted to change, only Lin Jingyi did not tell the village chief.

"Comrade Xia Lin, what about you?" The village chief had already added Lin Jingyi to his list of places to move to, but Lin Jingyi shook his head.

"I won't change it."

"Okay... Ah, what did you say?" The village chief nodded, then realized what Lin Jingyi had said, but he was still somewhat incredulous and could only ask again uncertainly.

“I want to live in that house, I think it’s great.”

Lin Jingyi then repeated his thoughts.

"No, Comrade Xia Lin, aren't you afraid to go there alone during the day?" The village chief felt uneasy even though he was alone.

Charlene is actually going to sleep there alone.

However, out of concern for the other party's safety, the village chief still advised:

“Comrade Xia Lin, the comrades who came with you are all being replaced. It’s not safe for you to be alone.”

"I know."

The village chief immediately felt that Xia Lin seemed to have something wrong with her brain; everyone else wanted to leave, but she was the only one who wanted to live in a haunted house.

He looked at the few educated youths standing to the side, hoping they could persuade Xia Lin.

Seeing this, the educated youth shook their heads at the village chief, indicating that they were powerless to help.

There was nothing he could do but sigh, seeing Xia Lin's serious expression.

"Comrade Xia Lin, this is your own choice. We will not be responsible for any accidents that happen."

The village chief could only offer this subtle reminder to Xia Lin.

Lin Jingyi nodded, said goodbye, and returned to his residence.

Several villagers made way for her, wondering how long Xia Lin would stay in the house.

Not long after Lin Jingyi arrived at the house, several educated youths came to move their belongings out of the house before it got dark.

At this moment, Lin Jingyi was also sitting on the bed cultivating.

Several ghosts concealed themselves and stood aside watching Lin Jingyi cultivate, all showing expressions of curiosity.

"Grandpa, what is Sister Xia doing?" Ding Shiyao asked her grandfather as she watched Lin Jingyi sitting cross-legged without moving.

The ghosts had only recently become ghosts, and no one knew much about ghost cultivation.

Upon hearing this, Lao Gui shook his head, indicating that he did not know.

He wanted to obtain cultivation techniques from Lin Jingyi, but since they were not related, why would someone pass on their best skills to another person?

A moment later, a commotion was heard outside the door.

When Lin Jingyi came in, he told these ghosts that these people would be moving out of the house. They knew that they were just here to move things, so they didn't go out to scare people, but stayed in the room to cultivate.

"Squeak~" Liu Jia pushed open Lin Jingyi's door and saw that the room was densely packed with "people".

"Ah~" Liu Jia screamed and ran quickly to the room of the male educated youth next door.

She saw a dozen or so ghosts surrounding Xia Lin, their faces filled with drooling...

"Comrade Liu Jia, what happened?"

Several educated youths rushed over upon hearing the commotion. Seeing Liu Jia's panicked appearance, they quickly asked her what was wrong.

“Ghosts…so many ghosts! They…they’ve surrounded Comrade Xia Lin.” Liu Jia gasped for breath, pointing to her door.

Seeing Liu Jia like this, the male educated youth who was asking the questions felt a little scared, and everyone started to imagine what they had dreamed about the night before.

The air felt a degree cooler.

"Ah~ It it it it... They're out!" Liu Jia saw two ghosts, one big and one small, walking out of the room and immediately screamed.

Several educated youths were so shocked by Liu Jia's voice that their eardrums ached. They looked in the direction Liu Jia was pointing, but saw nothing.

"Comrade Liu Jia, there's nothing here." Song Xiaoxiao looked at the only corridor and railing in front of her, and then at Liu Jia, who was so frightened that she was incoherent, and looked puzzled.

"Sister, why can this person see us?" Xiao Cheng asked Ding Shijia.

Ding Shijia glanced at Liu Jia, who was about to faint, and said that she didn't know either.

She had assumed that these people were invisible unless they deliberately sought reality.

Unexpectedly, besides Sister Xia, the woman who slept in the same room as her could also see them without them making themselves visible.

The two animals drew closer and closer to Liu Jia, their faces filled with curiosity as they slowly approached.

"Don't come any closer!"

Upon hearing this, the two ghosts paused in their steps. Xiao Cheng let go of Ding Shiyao's hand and teleported to Liu Jia's side.

"Ah!" Liu Jia rolled her eyes and fainted.

"Comrade Liu Jia, what's wrong, Comrade Liu Jia!" Seeing that Liu Jia had fainted, several educated youths hurriedly tried to wake her up.

Lin Jingyi was also disturbed by the noise outside. He opened his eyes, glanced at the ghost standing in front of the bed, and his lips twitched.

"Grandpa, what are you doing?"

Old Ghost gave an awkward laugh: "It's nothing, just wandering around."

He then vanished, and the dozen or so ghosts disappeared in an instant.

Lin Jingyi stepped out and saw Liu Jia surrounded by several educated youths, with two ghosts joining in the fun.

"Spread out a bit, getting too close will affect Comrade Liu Jia's breathing."

Seeing that the group had completely surrounded them, Lin Jingyi quickly spoke up to disperse them.

"Sister Xia, do you know why she can see us?"

Ding Shiyao thought that Sister Xia was a senior whom even her grandfather respected, and perhaps the other party knew more, so she couldn't help but ask the question that had been bothering her.
