Chapter 15 The Kind Male Ghost

When the sun was high in the sky, everyone ate breakfast and lunch together. Su went to work in the fields, the two younger ones tidied up the house, and also went to the village chief's house to buy some nails. Meanwhile, Xiang Dayong used a machete to chop the bamboo that Xiang He had cut back.

Xiang He seemed to have inexhaustible strength, carrying the cut bamboo home time and time again, making countless trips. As dusk settled, Su returned carrying two buckets of water, and Xiang Yun also came back with a large pile of wild vegetables, her little face all dirty.

The land they were allocated only contained millet. Xiang He planned to cultivate a vegetable garden in the open space in front of his house, otherwise there would be no wild vegetables in winter, let alone go out to buy them.

"Oh! What a coincidence! I brought some bowls, steamed buns, and cabbage. Let's have a good chat tonight!"

Fourth Aunt came up carrying a basket. Seeing the sturdy bamboo table, she immediately praised, "Third Brother's craftsmanship is excellent! Get some things for my family sometime, even if you buy them!"

Xiang Dayong smiled憨厚ly, "No, not too big, not too sturdy."

"Wow! You're really good with words! Life is sure to get better and better!"

Fourth Aunt was a helpful person. She put down the basket and helped Xiang Dayong tie the small stool. He only had one hand, so he could only tie it by clamping his thigh, which was a little loose. Fourth Aunt pulled it up with both hands, making it much more secure.

"I remember you used to cry when you were little, how come you can't talk anymore?"

Xiang Dayong's face stiffened. Fourth Aunt realized she had said the wrong thing and quickly waved her hand to pull away, "Oh dear, I really brought up the wrong thing. What were we having for dinner tonight?"

"rabbit……"

"Rabbit meat is delicious! I've been craving it for so long! My dog ​​is useless; he can never catch any. Today I'm in for a treat!"

When Xiang He returned, she saw a harmonious scene. Her pink dress was already dirty and messy, but she didn't care about her appearance. She had to take care of her belly first. She hurriedly called Xiang Yun to start a fire, because she was not very good at it.

Even if you have that memory, it's different when you actually do it.

After working for a while, we were finally able to have a hot meal. Everyone gathered around the newly made table to eat meat. Although there wasn't much, each person was quite satisfied with one or two pieces.

With Fourth Aunt joining them, Su Shi and Xiang Dayong became more talkative.

Even as darkness fell, Fourth Aunt was still somewhat reluctant to leave. She walked down the slope and looked back, saying, "Aci, are you going to the market tomorrow? Your family needs to buy some odds and ends, otherwise we won't even have bowls to eat from."

Fourth Aunt couldn't see the troubled look on Su's face, so Xiang He rushed to Su's side and waved, "I'll go with Mother tomorrow, Fourth Aunt, remember to wait for us! Fourth Aunt, take care!"

"okay!"

Watching her fourth aunt's departing figure, Madam Su's expression remained unchanged. "We don't have much..."

"Don't worry, we need to take care of the miscellaneous things first," Xiang He pushed her shoulders and led her into the house. "Mother, hurry up and have them wipe themselves down. There's something I need to tell you later."

Upon hearing this, Su's shoulders visibly stiffened. Xiang He stopped speaking and sat outside gazing at the bright moon in the night sky.

He didn't know how long he had been sitting when he heard the sound of a door closing behind him, along with the sound of limping footsteps. Xiang He turned around to look at the two of them, his hands forming a mudra in front of his abdomen, drawing yin energy from the surroundings.

Before long, a faint white light appeared around her. Xiang Dayong was filled with excitement, while Su was filled with nervousness. She didn't know if she could bear what she was about to see.

The exact same shadow reappeared, and tears welled up in Su's eyes. She took a few steps forward, wanting to hug the drifting figure, but she couldn't touch it. She covered her mouth and choked back sobs.

“He girl…”

Xiang He sighed softly, got up and walked to the table to pick up the clothes that Su had put down. "You can say whatever you want, but keep your voices down so that Xiao Yang and Yun Ya can't hear you and get scared. I'm going to wash up by the river behind the mountain and will be back in a little while."

Madam Su turned around hurriedly, "He... Miss..." She didn't know how to address her by name.

Xiang He simply tilted her head and smiled, "I share the same name as your daughter; it's fate and destiny."

She picked up her clothes and stopped talking. Following the original owner's memories, she walked towards the back mountain, stepping on the path she had walked earlier that day. She showed no emotion, and the smile she had shown to people was gone. She just walked calmly.

She walked under the moonlight, and after crossing half a mountain, she finally arrived. A small river shimmered in the sunlight below the slope. She quickly ran down, looked around, and, finding no one coming, took off her clothes and went into the water.

The river water was much cooler in the autumn air, but she felt really uncomfortable after being sticky all day, so she had to take a shower no matter how cold it was.

The trees stood tall all around, and the moonlight could only seep through the gaps. She kept a close eye on her surroundings. In the pitch-black night, the wind rustled the leaves, and the shadows of the trees on the ground swayed in the wind, as if countless hands were wandering around.

Xiang He wiped herself without looking up, "Stop fooling around."

The shadows of the trees were still shifting. Xiang He sighed helplessly, "I just want to take a nice bath. You'd better behave and not cause any trouble, or else..."

The two words were uttered softly, and the shadow of the tree actually stopped. Strangely, the branches were still swaying, but the shadow on the ground had stopped. Anyone who saw this would be terrified.

But it didn't stay still for long. The tree shadows started moving again, and the "hands" from all directions seemed to be able to see them, rushing directly towards Xiang He.

Xiang He suddenly stood up, splashing water to cover herself. She quickly put on clean clothes, tossed her long hair, turned around, and made a hand seal with her right hand. The shadows of the trees on the ground stopped again.

She slowly raised her eyes, her gaze flashing coldly in the darkness, and fixed on a large tree directly in front of her. "Get to the point, don't play these pointless tricks."

The shadows of the trees on the ground suddenly shrank back to their original state, while a dark shadow flickered slightly under the big tree. Under Xiang He's indifferent gaze, the shadow gradually became clear.

In a short while, the dark figure transformed into a human, dressed in hemp clothing, looking up and trembling as he pointed a finger at a certain spot. He turned his head to look at the spot, which was located deeper in the back mountain.

Xiang He picked up the cloth shoes from the ground and walked over barefoot. "What's over there?"

"people……"

Just one word gave Xiang He a huge headache. There were still people in the deep mountains at this late hour. They were either injured and unable to move, or they were there to steal.

She couldn't stand by and watch the first one die, but if it was the second one... it seemed quite interesting to see what the other party was up to.

You want me to save someone?

The male ghost nodded vigorously, a smile suddenly appearing on Xiang He's lips. He lifted Xiang He's chin and said, "It seems you're a kind-hearted ghost. I can save people, but is there a reward? I'm quite short of money lately."

The male ghost seemed quite helpless, scratching and fidgeting, "There... there's a dead big cat... I know where it is..."

"Hmm? A big cat? A tiger?"

"Um……"

Upon hearing that it was a tiger, Xiang He's spirits soared even higher!

He tossed his head and turned his body, exuding righteousness, and said, "Lead the way!"
