Chapter 142 Did You Save Me? Order Rejected

Song Xizheng quickly stood up and took a few steps back, knocking over the chair he had been sitting on in the process.

Upon hearing the sound, the woman who was drawing her eyebrows with an eyebrow pencil stopped in her tracks.

"Are you dissatisfied with me, sir?"

After a long while, the woman spoke softly.

Song Xizheng swallowed hard and looked around, but Lin Yun was nowhere to be seen. He forced himself to remain calm and asked, "Where’s Qingqing? Wasn’t she supposed to be serving me tonight?"

The girl put down her eyebrow pencil, placed her hands on her knees, and suddenly turned her face around.

"Young master, I am Qingqing!"

"Of course I will serve you well tonight!"

Song Xizheng’s eyes widened.

The face that turned around was completely disfigured on the other side; the skin and flesh looked as if they had been scraped off by a sharp weapon, revealing the bone and flesh underneath.

Even more terrifyingly, Song Xizheng saw that half of her face was still dripping blood.

The blood was clearly visible on her dress.

The side where the girl had been drawing her eyebrows was the other, intact half of her face.

One side was exquisitely made up, while the other was a bloody mess.

In the blink of an eye, Qingqing suddenly appeared in front of Song Xizheng.

Song Xizheng’s pupils contracted, and he instinctively raised his foot to kick.

But Qingqing dodged it.

"Young master... a moment of pleasure on a spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold..."

Qingqing appeared behind Song Xizheng, her hands already reaching toward his shoulders, inch by inch, touching downward.

"Roll!"

Song Xizheng quickly broke free from Qingqing’s hands and stared at her warily.

A few drops of blood from Qingqing’s face fell onto his shoulder.

"Young master, what’s wrong with you? Are you dissatisfied with me? Or... do you only remember Xiaohe?"

Qingqing approached Song Xizheng step by step with a blank expression.

Suddenly, the surrounding scenery changed.

Song Xizheng quickly looked around, and the surroundings had suddenly turned into a cave.

Inside the cave was also an ancient canopy bed with a striking red silk ribbon hanging from it.

Wouldn’t that solve the problem?

If they found themselves gone in a little while, wouldn’t they be unable to find them?

"My lord, a moment of blissful night is worth a thousand pieces of gold!"

When Song Xizheng looked over, he was surprised to find that Qingqing’s face had recovered at some point, and she was now very beautiful.

But Song Xizheng’s viewpoint just didn’t seem right!

When Qingqing pounced on him, Song Xizheng quickly dodged, fearing that he would be devoured alive.

Sister Lin! Sister Song! Brother Xiong! Brother Qiao! Help!

Hey, your order has been rejected by Lin Yun again.

Lin Yun looked at the men who had appeared in front of her and fell silent.

How disgusting.

"Serve us well tonight, so we won’t suffer any physical pain." A burly-looking man stepped forward and reached out to pull Lin Yun.

Lin Yun quickly dodged again and asked, "Where is this?"

The short, stout man scoffed. "You don’t need to worry about where this is. Your companions can’t find you, and they can’t hear you either."

"Will Mama Yao and the others be able to find us?"

"What are you thinking? She doesn’t even give her customers this much privacy. What kind of brothel is she running?"

The short, fat man spat and stepped forward, trying to pull Lin Yun away as well.

"Oh, so what are you guys so arrogant about?"

Lin Yun snorted coldly again and suddenly pulled out a stick, striking at the two people closest to her.

The Ghost Vine also detached from her wrist, grew to a gigantic size, and lashed out with a vine in an instant.

"Ah--"

"Damn it! You dare to resist? Let’s kill her, brothers!"

Seeing that Lin Yun still dared to resist, the men stopped pretending and revealed their true colors.

Lin Yun looked again. Weren’t these people actually human?

Although she had a premonition when she entered the haunted house, she was still shocked when she saw it with her own eyes.

The men reverted to their pre-death appearances, becoming extremely ugly. They lunged at Lin Yun, baring their teeth and claws, wanting to tear her apart and devour her.

The Ghost Vine lashed out again, but missed its target.

Lin Yun swung her stick again, but missed. They couldn’t hit these people.

Her face darkened. How was she supposed to deal with these evil spirits?

[Again! What should I do?! I can’t hit them!]

The Ghost Vine kept trying to whip the men, but it was no use at all.

Wow! That’s so unfair!

They are in ghost form; you can’t touch them.

Lin Yun could only avoid these men now, trying to prevent them from touching her.

The blatant intent in their eyes made her even more determined not to let them succeed.

While Lin Yun was dodging several male ghosts and pondering how to kill them, she suddenly noticed her empty wrist.

What happened to the little tags that the green vests had given them to hang on their wrists?

"Alright, stop wasting your time. You’re a living person who’s entered our territory. You can’t beat us. Hahaha."

"That’s right, little beauty. You’d better just obediently give in to us!"

"That’s absolutely right. What’s so great about a woman like you being out in the public eye? You might as well stay here and enjoy your life."

"Yes, yes, the last one was just like you, so stubborn, but after experiencing the pleasures of a man, didn’t she become just as obedient?"

Several male ghosts laughed wildly, as if they had successfully captured Lin Yun again.

They treated Lin Yun’s avoidance of them as just a little game. In this space, they were the masters.

Lin Yun had been brought here unexpectedly. She had just observed that the surrounding area seemed to be a mass grave, extremely desolate.

As the other party approached, Lin Yun kept retreating.

After taking the small plaque from the brothel out of her backpack, she turned and ran.

[Haunted House Hint: Find their physical bodies and destroy them to pass.]

Lin Yun’s breathing became heavier as she continued to retreat. She had thought that entering the haunted house would be dangerous, but she had not expected the danger to come in such a strange form. The ghosts could clearly see her, chase her, and even frighten her, yet her attacks passed through them as if she were striking empty air.

That feeling of being unable to fight back was extremely unpleasant.

She tightened her grip on the stick and watched every movement around her. She could not afford to panic. If she became careless for even a moment, those ghosts might catch her.

Lin Yun had never liked being forced into anything.

At this moment, she had no other choice.

Now, however, she needed to find a way to deal with them rather than waste her strength attacking blindly. The Ghost Vine had already disappeared into the mass grave, and she could only hope that it would find something useful there.

The plaque in her hand also felt strangely important. She had taken it out almost instinctively after seeing the hint, but she still did not know what use it had.

At least the hint had finally given her a clear direction.

Find their physical bodies.

Destroy them.

Only then could she pass.

Lin Yun glanced toward the desolate graveyard again, her thoughts turning quickly. The ghosts were impossible to touch, but their bodies had to exist somewhere. If she could find those bodies, perhaps she would finally have a way to fight back.

She continued running, refusing to let the ghosts surround her, while silently waiting for the Ghost Vine to return with an answer.

Lin Yun communicated with the Ghost Vine in her mind again, and the Ghost Vine immediately shrank and disappeared into the mass grave.

"Oh, looks like your little thing isn’t all that great, is it? It actually abandoned you and ran off."

"I think it’s wise to be pragmatic. Knowing it can’t beat us, it simply ran away."

"Hahaha, what a coward."

"Stop talking nonsense, brothers. Just grab her and give her a beating, and she’ll behave."

Lin Yun frowned again, dodging the male ghost’s hand time and time again.

"Ah--"

Suddenly, a scream came from behind.

Lin Yun turned her head and saw a blue flame suddenly ignite on a male ghost’s body, constantly devouring it.

"No! No! I don’t want to die! Save me, please save me!"

The male ghost let out a terrified cry, pleading for help from his companions.

However, when the other male ghosts saw this scene, they all kept their distance. They dared not go over to save him, for it would be too late if they were touched by the flames.
