Chapter 154 The Temptation of a Female Ghost

In front of the flickering lights, Ning Caichen kept talking and expressing his ideals.

Xiao Zhen felt a little sleepy after listening to this. Can't these scholars have some other pursuits? They think about becoming the top scorer in the imperial examination every day. It would be better for them to open a bun shop.

Suddenly, Xiao Zhen seemed to have noticed someone outside the door, and heard a series of light footsteps.

“Knock, knock, knock! Can the two gentlemen inside open the door? I just encountered a thief outside and I hope I can go in and hide!”

Hearing that the person coming was a woman with such a pleasant voice, Ning Caichen immediately wanted to open the door, knowing that she must be a beautiful girl.

Xiao Zhen flashed in front of Ning Caichen, put his mouth close to Ning Caichen's ear, and whispered: "Where did this woman come from in the middle of the night? Aren't you afraid that it's a female ghost outside, who will suck you dry and turn you into the same guy as before."

Ning Caichen couldn't help but shudder when he heard this, and asked cautiously: "Brother Xiao, it shouldn't be, what you said is too scary!"

Xiao Zhen sneered and reminded in a low voice: "Do you think there would be any woman in such a remote place in the wilderness?"

Ning Caichen also fell silent. He glanced outside the door, not knowing whether he should open it.

Xiao Zhen couldn't help but add in a low voice: "You were the only one talking just now, how did she know there were two people here?"

Upon hearing this, the hairs on Ning Caichen's back stood up. He looked at the closed windows. Although the room was very shabby, the papers on the windows at the door were very intact. How did the woman outside the door know that there were two people inside?

Xiao Zhen patted Ning Caichen on the shoulder and whispered, "Okay, leave everything to me. Just lie down over there and pretend to be asleep!"

Ning Caichen thought about it and felt that Xiao Zhen was a man of real ability, so if it really was a female ghost, he should be able to deal with it.

"Then everything depends on you, Brother Xiao." After Ning Caichen finished speaking, he ran directly to his seat, picked up a piece of rag and covered his head with it, as if he had fallen asleep.

When Xiao Zhen saw Ning Caichen's reaction, he couldn't help but laugh twice. He was indeed a scholar and his reaction was quick.

Xiao Zhen quickly walked to the door and opened it slightly, only to see a charming woman in purple standing outside.

"I don't know what's the matter, young lady. Why are you out here so late at night instead of staying at home?" Xiao Zhen asked in a pretended cautious tone.

The purple-clothed woman is named Xiaoqing. She is one of the tree demon's capable subordinates, and her status is second only to Nie Xiaoqian.

The female ghost Xiaoqing came this time because she received an order from the tree demon. Now the tree demon has been fighting with Yan Chixia, although it did not absorb the swordsman's essence.

But she did manage to hold Yan Chixia back, and she could take advantage of this opportunity to send someone to lure the young swordsman and scholar here. Anyway, her efforts today would not be in vain.

"Hero, my name is Xiaoqing, and I'm the daughter of a nearby family. I met a thief on the road before, and I ended up here after being chased." The female ghost Xiaoqing covered her face and said in panic.

"Oh, so that's how it is!" Xiao Zhen nodded in understanding, but he didn't believe a word the female ghost said.

However, what Xiao Zhen was interested in was the female ghost herself. After all, the ghosts in this world were really strange. They were not very powerful, but they could have physical bodies and even interact with people...

When the female ghost Xiaoqing saw the young swordsman looking at her like that, she was extremely excited. She realized that she was still quite charming and definitely not inferior to that slut Nie Xiaoqian.

As long as she can capture the swordsman and the scholar today, she will definitely be able to get the help of her grandma. She has already heard from her grandma that after a while, she will send Nie Xiaoqian to the Black Mountain Demon. Then, she can legitimately replace Nie Xiaoqian.

"As long as you can send me home, I will reward you handsomely!" said the female ghost Xiaoqing timidly.

Xiao Zhen laughed evilly and said jokingly, "I wonder what kind of reward there is. I am really curious. Can you tell me?"

The female ghost Xiaoqing thought Xiao Zhen had taken the bait, so she deliberately puffed out her huge chest and pulled up the hem of her skirt, revealing her white thighs, full of temptation.

"As long as the two gentlemen can send me home, I will serve you well in the future!" Xiaoqing said slowly, her tone full of charm.

After the ghost girl Xiaoqing finished speaking, Xiao Zhen immediately became serious and said righteously: "Young lady, please respect yourself. I am a serious person and will never fall for your tricks!"

This made the female ghost Xiaoqing completely confused. She was looking at him with lustful eyes just now, and now she changed her attitude. What a strange man.

"Then what do you want, sir? I have several sisters at home. If you are not satisfied with me, you can also let them serve you well!"

The female ghost Xiaoqing played another trump card. The tree demon did have many beautiful female ghosts under his command, and the most beautiful one was Nie Xiaoqian. However, if the two men went with her, whether they would have a chance to enjoy it was another matter.

"Haha, judging from the way the girl is dressed, she should not be from a respectable family!" Xiao Zhen suddenly said.

The female ghost Xiaoqing was stunned for a while. It turned out that the young man mistook her for a prostitute. But after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that they were indeed similar.

"Young master, that's not right. Those prostitutes are in the flesh trade and they want money. But you and I are in love and I gave it to you voluntarily!" The female ghost Xiaoqing covered her face with embarrassment and said shyly.

"Oh!" Xiao Zhen nodded, but his next words made the female ghost Xiaoqing extremely furious.

"I know, those brothel girls were forced, but you are willing, and you don't even want to pay. So you are worse than the brothel girls!"

The ghost girl Xiaoqing's smile froze. No matter who she met today, she would not even accept a beautiful girl who came to her door.

Xiao Zhen did not give the female ghost any chance to explain and simply slammed the door shut.

The female ghost looked at the closed door, only to be a ghost disheveled in the wind. It was not the first time that she came out to seduce men, but the guy this time seemed a little special.

Ning Caichen, who was lying on the side pretending to sleep, immediately got up, hurried to Xiao Zhen, and asked carefully: "Brother Xiao, can you tell whether that girl is a human or a ghost?"

Although Ning Caichen was pretending to be asleep just now, he did not forget to secretly open one eye and look at the woman outside through the crack in the door. He must say that this girl was really pretty, much better than the village beauty in their village.

But when Ning Caichen heard that the girl didn't want any money, although he didn't know whether it was true or not, he was somewhat tempted.

Is it easy for Ning Caichen, a poor scholar? He is still a virgin after growing up. Which girl would be blind to marry him? He is in his twenties and has never even touched a woman's hand. He can only relieve his loneliness every night by reading some content in books.

Now that he had heard about the free door-to-door service, Ning Caichen had already been very excited. As long as this capable hero Xiao said that the one outside the door was not a female ghost, he would immediately want to rush out and talk to the girl about the depression he had been experiencing for many years.

Xiao Zhen didn't expect the scholar to react so strongly. He was about to explain to him, but the door behind him was violently pushed open.

The two looked back and saw that the purple-clothed woman had changed drastically. Her ten long black nails were waving in the air, and her smiling face had turned extremely pale, looking so terrifying.

"Brother Caichen, this woman is indeed not a human being. What did you want to say just now?" Xiao Zhen slowly answered Ning Caichen beside him.

Ning Caichen's feet were trembling. This female ghost was much scarier than the previous mummy.

"You stinky swordsman, you don't respond to soft offers and insist on using force. Today you and that scholar just come with me obediently!" The female ghost said leisurely with her hair standing on end.
