t staring at me like that, never tiring."Do you have that little compass on you" asked Old Mrs. Shen.I eyed her warily. "What do you want That's my mother's—"She sneered: "That belongs to the Shen fam...Mu Yunfan, Mu Dajia, Young Master Mu... no, Little ancestor of the Mu family.

You actually managed to fight the landowner with vengeful spirits while in prison!

Lin Yanqin, you're a highly educated returnee! How could you fall for him so easily Not only do you not give advice, but you also follow my brother around and cause trouble, having a blast doing it!

"Then why don't we just let them stay here" I looked up and said to Jiang Qiyun.

Jiang Qiyun smiled and looked at me: "…Seriously"

Very seriously, really.

It's pretty dangerous outside, it's safer to stay here. My brother can just hang out and gamble with his buddies, he'll only adjust his attitude calmly if the sky falls down.

My brother didn't notice me and Jiang Qiyun standing far behind the door. The ghost who was playing cards with him was so engrossed in the game that he didn't realize we had entered.

Look closely, that ghost isn't a soul imprisoned here. It's a female ghost dressed in official attire, the guard of this place

"Mu Xiaoge, I absolutely didn't cheat! There's no fun in cheating when something is this enjoyable! I played by the rules you taught me!" The female ghost pointed to the sky and swore.

"Nonsense! I've only taught you for a short while! You're already this good And your luck is so good! Who are you trying to fool! No more, no more! If we keep going like this, I'll lose all my underwear!" My brother waved his hand, conceding defeat.

"Oh! You can't accept defeat! Just burn more paper money for me when you get back!"

Lin Yanqin was picking up the cards and asked, "Shi Sanxiang, are you short of money"

That ghost named Thirteen Fragrance nearly nodded and said, “Yes, no one burns paper money for me.”

"Why What about your family"

Thirteen Fragrance curled her lips and shook her head, "Back then, I fell for a man, but my family disapproved. I had a falling out with them..."

"Betrayed in the end, huh" My brother chimed in immediately.

Thirteen Fragrance slapped her thigh: “That’s right! I was so heartbroken back then, I cried every day, feeling like the world had turned gray and my mood was terribly depressed!”

"Pff...How old are you Are you this naive People like you shouldn't be in love." My brother scoffed.

"I was naive back then! I thought my world was all pink, but one day that guy broke up with me. The reason he gave was especially funny. My pink world turned into a gray wasteland... Sigh, back then, for him, I had a huge fight with my family. Looking back, I was so stupid." Thirteen Fragrance shook her head.

She fell silent for a moment, then spoke slowly: "Only now do I understand that what makes us human is our emphasis on bloodlines and inheritance. When one disregards their bloodline and willfully harms their loved ones, the consequences are always dire..."

Lin Yanqin comforted, "Maybe your family doesn't know you're suffering and are still angry with you Family members don't have real enemies. Just talk it out..."

"It's too late, both my parents have passed away, and my siblings don't know where I am anymore... who would burn paper for me anymore..."

She muttered to herself, "Only after coming to the underworld did I realize how wonderful the world of flowers is! Damn it, for a stupid man, I turned my own world into a gray one. It's so foolish! Miss Lin, don't learn from me! I tell you, I've thought about it for years and finally know how I died—I was killed by my own stupidity!"

Pfft....

"Oh my, look at you! You're so well-made up, dressed to the nines, with delicious food, beautiful scenery, fine wine, and attractive people all around you every day. How happy you are! And you even have such a handsome boyfriend who treats you so lovingly! Why didn't I think of finding another one back then Maybe my next boyfriend will be even more handsome than Mu Xiaogē!"

My brother glared at her menacingly: "If you're going to talk, just talk. Don't drag me into this. You can't compare me to your scumbag boyfriend!"

Thirteen Fragrances sighed, “It’s a pity, people always ~~realize when they shouldn't, and fail to realize when they should. They hold on when they should let go, and refuse to let go when they should. They are proud when they shouldn't be, and unproud when they should be... In the end, they can only live in sighs of regret.”

The more she spoke, the angrier she became. She couldn't help but stand up and stomp her foot, saying, "Why didn't I realize this sooner Leaving that smelly man behind is like a new beginning! Why didn't I rush to find my true love"

My brother shouted helplessly: “ …Are you starting to act up again Listen to my orders! Turn around! Step back ten paces. You can go crazy over there, just don't stomp your feet here! If you break the board, what else will we have to play with This is the only entertainment we have here…”

Lin Yanqin leaned against my brother's side, and my brother raised his hand to hold her and comforted: "It's okay, it's okay, if the sky falls... just let it fall, anyway, there's nothing we can do about it~~~~ haha, I'm kidding, Xiao Qiao will definitely come to save us."

That Thirteen Scents really listened and retreated a few steps, continuing to pout. Like a ghost, she repeatedly pondered her obsession in life. She became a Ghost Messenger, probably because she had accumulated many virtues in her lifetime, so she still retained some clarity.

But when she thought of sad things, she was still trapped. She muttered to herself and stomped her feet angrily, as if a scumbag was lying on the ground for her to trample.

She turned a few circles and finally felt something was amiss. She looked up at us and blurted out, "You... who are you How did you get in!"

She was about to sound the alarm and raise her guard, but Jiang Qiyun reached out in time. A silver beam of energy struck her forehead, and she arched backward—

"Qi Yun, what are you doing! Don't kill her!" I exclaimed in shock.

Jiang Qiyun glared at me, then said in a low voice, "When have you ever seen me act recklessly and kill indiscriminately"

Hmph, you have the nerve to say that! Who was it in Lian Chi Village who started the inferno, setting everything ablaze and then transformed into a giant monstrous form, slashing and hacking, mercilessly killing souls and scattering remains

If Mu Wanchen hadn't stopped you, you would have killed all those children.

But I wouldn't dare say that, he did this to save me.

The Thirteenth Fragrance, who had just lowered her head, suddenly raised it again. She rubbed her forehead and knelt down to pay her respects, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am the leader of Ah Yue's men who was ordered to guard the young master Mu and his party. I have not mistreated them..."

Jiang Qiyun let out a faint snort. "Nonsense, isn't it When you're having so much fun playing cards, how can that be abuse"

My brother, hearing the noise, immediately stood up with the dim lantern in hand: "Xia Qiao"

I couldn't bear to let him worry, so I hurried forward and ran towards them: "It's me, are you all alright"

My brother let out a sigh of relief: "You being able to come in means this place is escapable... I was suffocating."

"Where are Xiaonie and Xiaoxing" I looked around.

"This room is huge, a real space, Xiaonie and Xiaoxing went to find the exit. They should be back soon, animals can't just sit still." My brother stretched his arm.

Jiang Qiyun also walked over and asked my brother, "Have you seen Ayu"ting backwards, rolling off the roof tiles from outside the window.I peered out in astonishment. He was surrounded by no sign of flame, but he was turning to ash with the speed of a fire, all while sc...
