I’m Being Held Captive by Demons - Chapter 70

[Chapter 70 Ghosts are so scary]

The nightmare I had last night was a little creepy when Kong Ning recalled it now.

Inexplicable heart hair panic.

After he told Wan’er about the process of the nightmare, the girl’s brows also frowned.

“Cultivators generally don’t dream. Once they do, there are often omens.”

“Ning Zhaotou dreamed that his parents were quarreling, and he kept repeating about the Mid-Autumn Festival and Chongyang…”

“According to common sense, it should really be an omen of some kind of whim.”

“But Mid-Autumn Festival and Chongyang… These two days are both auspicious days, completely opposite to Zhongyuan.”

“Even if the demons will make a big move, it’s not likely to be selected in the two days of the Mid-Autumn Festival and Chongyang, right?”

“Could it be foreshadowing that Ning Zhaotou’s parents will have a verbal dispute? But because of this trivial matter, it’s too hasty…”

Wan’er expressed confusion.

And the first possibility that came to mind was exactly the same as Kong Ning.

“Could it be that the ghost of the city god in the Yin Division will come again in the two days of Mid-Autumn Festival and Chongyang?”

“He will come to the city once a month to collect yang energy?”

“But now it’s the third day of the eighth lunar month, and the county doesn’t feel the gloomy and deadly aura spreading…”

No matter what Wan’er thinks, she can’t figure out what will happen to Mid-Autumn Festival and Chongyang.

The two stared at each other for a while with big eyes and small eyes, and really couldn’t think of what this nightmare predicted.

“How about… let’s go to the Yin Division to see?” Wan’er made a weak suggestion: “Ning Zhaotou has a spirit-suppressing sword, which can forcibly open the gate of hell.”

Kong Ning looked at her speechlessly, and said, “Yin Si is being controlled by the ghost of the city god, aren’t we looking for a dead end when we go in?”

“And the middle yuan has passed, can the ghost of the city god come to the world?”

Wan’er thought for a while, then shook her head and said, “Normally, it’s impossible.”

“The gate of the ghost has been closed, and the ghost of the city god first loses the authority of the city god, and then loses the sword of calming spirit, so he will not be able to enter and exit yin and yang at will.”

“The two realms of yin and yang overlap during the Mid-Yuan Festival, and the dead qi of Yin Si invades the human world. Only then can the ghost of the city god break through the gate of ghosts and come to the world.”

“But now that the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, and the Yin Si has returned to his place, unless someone invites him in the Yang direction, it is impossible for the ghost of the city god to come… uh…”

After Wan’er finished speaking, the two looked at each other suddenly.

Kong Ning frowned and said: “The monsters in the city, there is no reason to take the initiative to invite the ghost of the city god to come…”

Wan’er smiled embarrassingly: “This… this is only known to the monsters in the city… Haven’t they been preparing some big plan? Maybe that big plan has something to do with the ghost of the city god.”

Regarding the prediction of Kong Ning’s nightmare, the two discussed for a long time, but they could not discuss a result.

We can only be sure that something big will really happen in Mid-Autumn Festival or Chongyang.

And there is a high probability that it is related to a big plan that the monsters have been preparing…

In the end, Kong Ning, who couldn’t discuss the result, sighed and said, “Forget it, let’s end today. It’s getting late, I should go.”

“During this time, Miss Wan’er, you can check it out in the city when you have time. When I go back, I will try to find a way to test the tone of the monsters at home.”

“If there is new news, I will come to inform you.”

With that said, Kong Ning prepares to leave.

The timid girl who was standing aside hurriedly said, “Eunuch, walk slowly…”

Kong Ning smiled: “You are very polite… Well, I will study hard with your sister Wan’er in the future, but don’t study badly.”

After speaking, Kong Ning was ready to leave.

But just as he turned around, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw a woman in red squatting beside the girl.

The woman was pale and sad, and was reaching out to stroke Xu Caiwei’s hair.

However, the young girl and Wan’er on the side were unaware of this.

Kong Ning’s heart was startled.

Turn around immediately.

“Xu Miaoyi?!” Kong Ning said in shock.

However, after he turned around, in the small courtyard in his field of vision, only the girl named Xu Caiwei and Wan’er looked at him in astonishment.

As for the woman in red that Jinghong saw just now, there was no trace of her.

Kong Ning’s brows instantly wrinkled.

Did he see it wrong?

Or……

ghost?

Kong Ning’s change, startled Wan’er.

She said in surprise: “Ning Zhaotou? Why are you so surprised?”

After speaking, the girl also looked around in panic, and subconsciously opened her eyes.

However, under the eyes of Fayan, the yard was empty, and there was no ghost of Miss Xu San.

The girl looked at Kong Ning and said weakly, “Ning Caitou… In the daytime, don’t be scary…”

Kong Ning looked at her with a frown, and said, “I seemed to have seen Miss Xu San’s soul just now, standing beside Caiwei, reaching out to touch Caiwei’s head. But as soon as I turned around, I couldn’t see it anymore.”

Kong Ning’s words made the girl tremble.

She quickly settled down, opened her eyes again, and looked around the yard again.

Finally, he retracted his gaze and said, “No… Ning Zhaotou, did you read it wrong?”

The girl looked around nervously and whispered, “Where is the ghost in this daytime? And even if there is a ghost, you have to wait another six days.”

“It’s not the first seven yet…”

The girl was very nervous.

Kong Ning silently looked at her reaction, and suddenly remembered that Wan’er seemed to be quite nervous when she was in the ghost city.

At that time, I thought she was shocked by the danger and strangeness in the ghost city, but now it seems…

“Wan’er, you… aren’t you afraid of ghosts?” Kong Ning asked with a strange expression.

Wan’er’s expression was instantly embarrassed.

“That…I’m only seventeen years old, and I’m still a girl. It’s normal to be afraid of ghosts…is it normal to be afraid of ghosts?” The girl tried to stubborn.

However, even the girl on the side couldn’t help looking at her with a stunned expression.

Kong Ning was even more speechless.

“You…you are a practitioner!”

This is so awesome.

The only descendant of Xuantian Sword Sect is afraid of ghosts?

This cold joke is really cold enough.

For a while, Kong Ning didn’t know how to complain.

The world is difficult and demons are rampant, and in this desperate world ravaged by demons and monsters, the only companion that I can rely on is a girl who is afraid of ghosts?

This is really…

Suddenly, I felt that Xuantian Sword Sect was hopeless.

Kong Ning shook his head speechlessly, and finally decided to save face for this girl and toss the topic away.

“But I really saw Xu Miaoyi’s ghost just now,” said Kong Ning, “just turned around and disappeared.”

“It stands to reason that now that the gate of hell is closed, after a person dies, the ghost should not be able to enter the hell, right? Could it be that she has been following Caiwei all the time, but we can’t see it?”

Kong Ning suggested a possibility.

Wan’er shook her head and said, “Impossible.”

“A ghost is just a kind of spiritual body, and it is not a special thing. If it does appear, it is normal for mortals to see it, but it is impossible for us to detect it.”

“If the ghost of Miss Xu San really came, we couldn’t have felt it.”
