Chapter 500 The Night Wanderer Welcomes Guests
Lu Chengyu looked at those people: "Is that so?"
The foreman immediately knelt down: "Sir, I found these two women suspicious walking on the street late at night, so..."
"You dare to encounter a spy so openly?" Lu Chengyu's face darkened.
"Miss Fang, have mercy! I was blinded by greed!" The little leader reacted quickly and immediately begged Yun Yi for help.
Yunyi glanced at Lu Chengyu, then nodded: "It's fortunate it was me. What if it were another girl? Would she already be being interrogated by now? Would she be unable to resist or dare to resist?"
The underlings were left with nothing but kowtowing.
"Lord Lu, you handle your men." Yunyi passed the buck to Lu Chengyu.
"Go back and accept your punishment."
"Yes." The foreman happily agreed. Being punished meant getting beaten, but at least his life was spared. "Thank you, Miss Fang."
After everyone left, Lu Chengyu turned to Yun Yi: "Miss Fang, it's the middle of the night, you..."
"Lord Lu, it's past midnight, isn't it? What do you mean by 'the middle of the night'?" Yun Yi interrupted him, adding an eye roll. "Don't you and your men know how to tell time?"
Lu Chengyu frowned: "Fine, even if it's the middle of the night, and you're all alone..."
"Lord Lu, am I not human?" Yun Lu rolled her eyes as well.
Lu Chengyu was so angry he laughed: "Even if it's just the two of you, wandering the streets before dawn, it's understandable that my men would consider you spies, isn't it?"
"Alright, what do you want to say?"
What were you all doing at this time?
"They went to catch ghosts."
Lu Chengyu's lips twitched: "Miss Fang, this commander is not joking with you."
“Lord Lu, I’m not joking with you.” Yun Yi raised an eyebrow slightly. “If you don’t believe me, you can ask Master Chen. He was haunted by a female ghost, and I just caught it for him. He paid me for it.”
"Where in the world are there ghosts? Fang Yunyi, what you're saying..."
"Things in this world are really hard to predict. Don't say something doesn't exist if you haven't seen it." Yunyi laughed. "If you don't believe me, I'll show you."
The guard behind Lu Chengyu couldn't help but shudder. Ghosts are something that you can't really say don't exist.
"If you can really make this commander see ghosts, then this commander will believe you."
"Okay." Yunyi took out a talisman and a small porcelain bottle from her backpack. "Do you want to see those two people behind you?"
"Is there a difference?"
“If it’s just you watching, then just use the old ox’s tears. Apply them to your eyes and you’ll have the ability to see spirits for an hour. If the other two people also want to see, then I’ll use talismans. After all, the old ox’s tears are rare and hard to collect, but talismans can last for two hours.”
Lu Chengyu turned to his two guards: "Do you two want to see?"
After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Yue and Wang Peng both nodded.
"Just so you know, if something bad happens because of this, you can't come looking for me."
"No." Lu Chengyu shook his head.
So Yunyi used talismans on the three people.
After the talisman spontaneously combusted and disappeared without fire, Lu Chengyu and the other two felt that the atmosphere around them had changed, but they did not see any ghosts.
Yunyi then quietly released the sparrow.
"what!"
Wang Peng was the first to exclaim in surprise, but he quickly realized he had lost his composure and hurriedly covered his mouth.
The sparrow circled the three people once, then landed in front of Lu Chengyu: "This one is better looking. If I could sleep with him, it might be really fun, hehe."
Lu Chengyu's face turned ugly. Suddenly, he drew his sword and slashed at Que'er.
Seeing that things were going badly, Yunyi quickly took a step back, putting some distance between herself and Que'er. She hadn't expected that Lu Chengyu would be using the Chun Jun Sword.
The Chun Jun Sword is hailed as a masterpiece forged by both heaven and man.
Legend has it that to forge this sword, the Chijin Mountain broke open after a thousand years and tin was extracted, and the Ruoye River dried up after ten thousand years and copper was extracted.
When the sword was forged, the Thunder God struck the iron, the Rain Goddess poured water, a dragon held up the furnace, and the Heavenly Emperor added charcoal. Master swordsmith Ou Yezi, entrusted by Heaven, devoted himself to forging and polishing the sword with the help of the gods for ten years before it was finally completed.
After the sword was completed, the gods returned to heaven, Mount Chijin closed up as before, the Ruoye River surged again, and Ou Yezi died from exhaustion.
Therefore, this sword is no less powerful than the Gan Jiang and Mo Xie swords.
Legend has it that the sword, imbued with divine power, will not destroy the sparrow's soul, but it will still harm her soul.
The sparrow sensed the danger, so it floated away without struggling, thus avoiding the sword wind of Chun Jun.
"This person is too violent, always resorting to knives and swords. He's not friendly to ghosts. I'm not playing with you anymore." With that, Que'er disappeared into the peach wood pendant.
Lu Chengyu frowned, but didn't say anything more.
"Does Lord Lu believe me? Can we leave now?"
"Just this one ghost?"
"How much more do you want?" Yun Yi frowned. "This is right under the emperor's nose, a place where dragon energy gathers. Ordinary wandering ghosts wouldn't dare to roam around here."
"This one ghost doesn't count."
Yunyi chuckled, but didn't refuse. Instead, she directly summoned the Ghost Gate: "Night Wanderer, come out and greet your guests."
Lu Chengyu's lips twitched again.
"Boss Ghost." Night Wanderer floated out from the Gate of Hell, glanced at Lu Chengyu, and said, "This is no joke."
"Are you kidding me? This Lord Lu doesn't believe in ghosts. He can't stand even seeing a single ghost. So, why don't you give him a parade of a hundred ghosts?"
Night Wanderer: ...
Yun Yi yawned, "Lord Lu, take your time looking around. The Gate of Hell connects to the Yellow Springs, and there are plenty of ghosts inside. I'm going back to sleep now." With that, she pulled Yun Lu away, leaving whatever would happen here to chance.
"Miss, is it really okay for us to just leave like this?" Yunlu asked with some concern.
"What's wrong with that? Humans and ghosts can't fight." Yunyi waved her hand. "Hurry up, Li Qiulan will definitely come to me when it's light. Fortune telling requires energy, I need to sleep for a while."
As Yunyi lay down on the bed, the crowing of a rooster came from afar, and the east began to brighten.
Because I had something on my mind, I didn't sleep for long. I woke up after about two hours, around nine in the morning. When I got up and went downstairs, I was told that there were two people waiting in the lobby.
"Who else could it be besides Li Qiulan?"
“Lu Chengyu.” Gu Chengyun’s expression was somewhat complicated. “That Commander Lu looks rather haggard, like he hasn’t slept all night.”
Yunyi sighed, "Has this guy become a leech?" But she still quickly washed up, ate some breakfast, and then went to the front hall.
Fang Zhongzheng and his men were serving him. When he saw Yun Yi arrive, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. There was nothing he could do; Lu Chengyu's aura was too strong, and his expression was not good either. He was always worried that the other party would draw his sword at any moment.
