Something’s Wrong With My Wife

Chapter 29

The moonlight was bright.

It shone down at the dark corner where they were at.

Waves rippled across the lake as a result of their movements. The lake sparkled like a diamond in the moonlight.

However, there was nothing unusual about the lake.

When Luo Qingzhou heard the word “monster” and looked at the huge lake that was shrouded in mist in the night, his heart gave an involuntary shudder.

“What monster?”

Luo Qingzhou held Xiao Die in his arms and stared in the direction she was pointing at.

Xiao Die’s soft body trembled in his arms, and her face was pale as she stuttered, “T-there’s a face… b-below…”

Luo Qingzhou’s heart skipped a beat. He quickly let go of her and said in a low voice, “Xiao Die, stand here and don’t move. I’ll go down and take a look.”

After saying that, he did not dare to hesitate anymore. He immediately lowered his body and dived down.

“Young Master…”

Xiao Die stood in the same spot, unmoving, staring at Luo Qingzhou. Her body was trembling, her face was filled with fear and worry.

After Luo Qingzhou sank into the water, he opened his eyes and looked in the direction she had pointed.

With just one look, he got so frightened that his heart lurched and he almost jumped out of the water.

Under the murky light, a hideous ghost face emitting a strange green light stood at the bottom of the water, four to five meters ahead!

At first glance, that ghostly face seemed to be staring at him with a sinister smile!

Luo Qingzhou forcibly suppressed his fear and took a closer look at it. Suddenly, he realized that something seemed amiss.

The ghost face stood there motionless. The expression on its face did not change. It did not even blink. There was nobody behind it.

There seemed to be only one face standing there.

Suspicion arose within Luo Qingzhou. He looked carefully at it for a while before emerging from the water and saying to the shivering Xiao Die, “Don’t be afraid, it’s not a monster. Wait here for me, I’ll be back soon.”

Without waiting for Xiao Die to reply, he immediately sank into the water and swam over to the ghost mask.

Ever since he had cultivated that inner force cultivation method, Luo Qingzhou could hold his breath for more than 20 minutes. He could come and go freely underwater without needing to breathe.

He quickly swam over from the bottom of the water.

The closer he got, the more he realized that the ghostly face was an inanimate object. It did not have any vitality, so it could not be a monster.

When he swam closer and saw the ghostly face clearly, he did not know whether to laugh or cry.

It was indeed a ghost face, but it was only a lifelike green ghost mask.

It emitted a faint green light because a small bronze mirror was below it, reflecting the moonlight that shone through the water into it.

Luo Qingzhou reached out and picked up the ghost mask.

This mask was made of some unknown material. It was thin, soft, and slightly transparent. It felt very comfortable in his hand, and it seemed like he could blend it with his face completely if he put it on.

The lake water was warm. It was unknown how long the mask had been submerged in the water, but it was not damaged at all.

Luo Qingzhou squeezed and pulled a few times, but it was tough and showed no signs of tearing.

Luo Qingzhou looked at the bronze mirror. It had half of its body buried in the mud. He reached out to pick it up.

The bronze mirror was oval and only the size of a palm. There were some strange patterns engraved on its frame.

On the uppermost part of the frame, there was a silver moon and a sun engraved on it. There was actually a mirror on both sides of it.

Luo Qingzhou was afraid that Xiao Die would be worried if he was too long underwater, so he did not dare to look anymore. He immediately grabbed the bronze mirror and mask and swam back.

Xiao Die cried tears of joy when she saw him surface safely.

Luo Qingzhou swam over to Xiao Die. He raised the bronze mirror and mask that he was holding to show her. “Xiao Die, it’s not a monster. It’s merely a mask and mirror. The mirror reflected the moonlight onto the mask, so you mistakenly thought that it was a monster,” he comforted.

Xiao Die looked at the ghost mask in his hand and was still a little afraid. “Young Master, quickly throw it away. It looks so disgusting.”

Luo Qingzhou washed the ghost mask in the water, stroked it, and tugged at it. He said, “The material of this mask doesn’t look ordinary. I’ll bring it back to take a look first. Even if I intend to discard these, I can’t throw them back here. After all, we’ll be coming back to bathe here, so I don’t want you to be frightened by these items again.”

As he spoke, he raised his hand and threw it onto the shore.

“This little bronze mirror looks quite cute.”

Luo Qingzhou washed the bronze mirror in the water again. He picked it up and looked directly into it. Suddenly, he realized that his reflection in the mirror was very bright.

They were at a corner, and there was clearly no moonlight.

He took a closer look at his reflection in the mirror. The reflection of his face in the mirror was clearly different from his face in reality. It was much brighter.

“Huh. That’s strange.”

He was stunned for a moment before he moved closer to Xiao Die and shone the mirror at her.

The image of Xiao Die’s face in the mirror was much brighter.

Luo Qingzhou stared at her and then at her reflection in the mirror. He realized that there was indeed something strange about this mirror.

He suddenly turned the mirror over and used the other side to shine at Xiao Die, his face instantly showing a trace of surprise.

On the other side of the mirror, Xiao Die’s face was much darker than her real looks. In fact, it even had a dark and eerie feeling.

He quickly shone the mirror at himself again.

His image in the mirror suddenly became dark.

Upon closer inspection, it actually gave off a creepy feeling.

“Young Master, this mirror is so strange.”

Xiao Die had her curiosity piqued, but she did not think too much about it.

Luo Qingzhou carefully observed both sides of the bronze mirror and finally discovered some clues.

There was a sun carved above the mirror that presented them with a bright reflection of themselves.

And there was a moon carved above the mirror that made them look creepy.

Day and night?

Sun and Moon Mirror?

Luo Qingzhou stroked the bronze mirror in his hand and was secretly fascinated by it.

Could it be a treasure?

Regardless of whether it was a treasure or not, this bronze mirror was very interesting. He could not throw it away.

“Xiao Die, quickly take a bath. If you soak for too long, you’ll be at risk of dehydrating.”

Luo Qingzhou decided to bring the bronze mirror back to study it. He raised his hand and threw the bronze mirror onto the shore.

Xiao Die blinked at him, feeling a little confused. “Young Master, what is dehydration?” she asked.

Only then did Luo Qingzhou realize that the two of them were standing very close to each other.

Her sweet breath washed over his face. It felt very ticklish.

Xiao Die was very fair and young.

Earlier, when he had hugged her, he noticed that her skin was smooth and slippery like that of an eel.

Now that she was naked and submerged in the water, her face was reddish and she looked very alluring.

However, she was still a budding flower that had yet to bloom.

“Dehydration means that if you stay in the water for too long, the water in your body will be pulled out and away from you. This is when you lose more fluid than you take in. It’s dangerous if that happens.”

Luo Qingzhou gave a simple explanation so that she could easily understand.

Xiao Die’s eyes widened.

“Hurry up and bathe. Once you’re done, go back.”

Luo Qingzhou washed his body and turned his back to her.

Unexpectedly, the little girl behind him said shyly, “No… no wonder… I accidentally peed out earlier.”

“So the water was pulled from my body.”

Luo Qingzhou was rendered speechless.
