I light incense to worship the gods

Chapter 23
"Candles cannot be brought into the room. It is not safe." said the hotel owner.

"I'll be careful." I quickly promised.

The hotel owner refused and said, "No way, I only paid 50 yuan for this night. If you set the fire on me, how much compensation would I have to pay?"

"I'll give you double, boss. This is already over one o'clock. I went back early in the morning and couldn't sleep for a few hours. Look, you are accommodating." I said, taking out a hundred-dollar bill in my pocket with one hand. .

The boss seemed to acquiesce for the sake of money.

So I went into the house with the candle.

This room only has a small bed, a small table, a window, and nothing else, not even a separate bathroom.

I carefully placed the candle on the table, and even the quilt on the bed moved very gently, for fear that the wind would blow out the candle.

Oddly enough, this candle burned very slowly. Logically speaking, it would have burned out within a few hours.But it seemed like the candle couldn't be burned out. After so long, it was only a quarter burned out.

I took off my shoes and lay on the bed. When I turned my head, I saw Feng Hua and Ye Zeyi standing by the bed, staring at me with big eyes and small eyes.

"Um, you two sit down." I walked in and found an empty bedside.

Ye Zeyi said nothing and sat obediently by the bed.

However, due to lack of spiritual consciousness, Feng Hua's soul could not understand the words and still stood there stupidly.

I looked at her blank look and was in a bad mood, "What should I do when I bring candles back tomorrow?"

"I will help you do it." Ye Ze said.

When I heard this, I was stunned for a moment, and then I felt very good.

It was late at night, and sleepiness set in. As soon as Ye Ze saw me yawning profusely, he asked me to sleep first while he watched the candle for me.

I turned over and fell asleep. In my dream, I saw Feng Hua’s soul following Ye Ze through the dormitory door and entering the dormitory on the 6th floor. Then the soul turned around and climbed to Feng Hua. body, disappeared, and the candle was extinguished.

The moment the candle went out, I woke up suddenly, opened my eyes, and saw Ye Zeyi lying next to me with his eyes closed.Then he looked at the candle and found that it had been extinguished.

"When was it destroyed?" I asked in a panic.

At this time I was riding him with my feet together and leaning on his shoulders.

Ye Ze straightened his body. When you fell asleep, I had brought Feng Hua's soul back to its original position intact. Don't worry.

"Ancestors." I blurted out.

As soon as Ye Ze opened his eyes, he turned his head and looked at me with his dark eyes.

My look is definitely a bit risqué at the moment.

"Why do ghosts need to sleep?" I tried to relieve my embarrassment.

Ye Zeyi didn't expect me to say that. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly, "You are still the same, you haven't changed at all."

"Huh?" I was confused. He was the same as before. He didn't change at all. He acted as if he knew me very well. "I've asked before, ghosts also need to sleep?"

"This hotel is not clean. If I don't live next to you, you will be pressed into bed by a ghost." Ye Zeyi explained.

"Yes, now I am not a ghost holding the bed, I am a ghost." I muttered in a low voice, got up and yawned, "You said this hotel is unclean? Is there any supernatural incident?" Ye Ze said nothing. , I am very interested.

It wasn't until I went out that I realized that the hotel owner looked at me in horror.

He held 100 yuan in his trembling hands, "Little girl, we won't charge you for your accommodation."

I was confused and looked sideways at Ye Zeyi, "What did you do last night?"

At first, the boss could tremble and hold 100 yuan in his hands and give it to me. But now he saw me turning my head and talking to the air. He screamed and ran out. But no matter how scared he was, he still remembered to take 100 yuan and passed me. , he quickly stuffed the money into my pocket, and after running far away, I heard him shouting, "Auntie, I was wrong, I was wrong, please spare me."

This time I was completely sure and couldn't help but laugh, "What on earth did you do last night?"

"When I went out with the candle yesterday, I didn't carry anyone on my back. I even let the innkeeper see the drawer full of ghost coins last night." Ye Zeyi said it very calmly, as if he was telling a story.

I laughed even harder, "You are really talented, but thank you for saving me 100 yuan. I'll treat you to breakfast this morning."

Later I found out that Ye Zeyi was not only carrying people in the hotel, but also people in the dormitory. That afternoon, I heard about the supernatural incident in Building 2 of the women’s dormitory in the old district.It is said that this dormitory is haunted. At night, there is a female ghost who walks from room to room holding a candle. If you see her, she will seal your eyes with the candle.

But in the morning, I still kept my promise and took him to have a delicious breakfast nearby.I ordered two servings of bowls and chopsticks, two steamed buns and tea eggs.

I was sitting there eating deliciously, but the people around me looked at me strangely.

Ye Zeyi sat across from me, lowering his head, smelling the meat buns and tea eggs in front of him, "His buns are not clean, they are not good meat."

Ye Zeyi said.

"Just eat, there are so many things to do just to have a meal." I blurted out, and then realized that there were people around me. I quickly shut up and chatted with Ye Zeyi through mind communication.

Maybe because now that we are familiar with each other, Ye Zeyi is not so aloof and would also make jokes to me. "Do you believe it or not, everyone thinks you are mentally ill now?"

"Mental illness is mental illness. I don't know them anyway." As soon as I finished speaking, I glanced at the table next door and saw a familiar figure, Sun Jingyu.

There was a girl beside him. The girl was thin, weak, and taciturn. Sun Jingyu was very impatient with her, and there was a trace of disgust in his eyes.

He seemed to notice me and smiled at me.Then his eyes fell on the empty seat opposite me, thoughtfully.

"I met someone you know." Ye Ze said with a smile.

I stuffed the bun into my mouth in one gulp, "Who is that girl?"

Ye Zeyi said thoughtfully, "You will know later."

"You're trying to cheat me again." I pursed my lips.

At this time, I saw a familiar person walking in the door. I took a closer look and saw that this person I had just met two days ago was the owner of Zhenwei Restaurant.

His face was pale at the moment, and he was in a daze. He would shake his neck from time to time, and his back could not straighten up, as if he was carrying a thousand kilograms of weight.

The moment I saw him, I felt a chill all over me. Because Ye Zeyi was beside me, I could clearly see that he was carrying a female ghost on his back.

I've seen this female ghost before, the one I met in an Internet cafe.

When the female ghost saw me, she glanced at me with a sinister look.Seeing Ye Zeyi next to me, he withdrew his gaze.After a while, a sharp voice came from my ears, "Mind your own business."
