Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Just as Wu Qinghe had divined, everyone was very lucky and didn’t encounter any danger along the way.

When the sun was about to set, the three of them began to look for a suitable place to dock and prepare to spend the night ashore.

They had no other choice. Although this trip down the river was convenient, it was very unsafe at night.

Without seeing the turbulence of the river ahead, they wouldn’t be able to deal with the situation in time.

There were also some hidden stones in the river that might destroy the bamboo raft if they accidentally bumped into it.

Therefore, if they wanted to go home safely, they couldn’t take the bamboo raft at night.

After searching for a while, the group finally found a place to spend the night before dark.

Because they didn’t have time to pick up firewood, the three of them climbed up the tree to rest.

As for the bamboo raft, it was dragged to the shore and tied to the tree with vines.

The leather bag was also untied a little at this moment. After taking out their dinner, the three of them started eating.

Because there would also be many insects and snakes on the tree, Luo Cheng took out a porcelain bottle and poured some powder on his body.

Although the smell was a little strong, for safety reasons, Li Xiaoran and Wu Qinghe also touched this powder.

Sure enough, they slept well that night. Not even a single mosquito flew over to disturb their rest.

When the sun came out the next morning, the three of them, who had rested well, quickly took out today’s food from the leather bag. After breakfast, they went down the river again.

Yesterday, Li Xiaoran felt that sitting on the bamboo raft was very novel and exciting, but now, when she was sitting on the bamboo raft again, she felt bored.

Seeing Li Xiaoran’s bored expression, Luo Cheng smiled and teased, “If you’re really bored, you can try fishing!”

“Husband, stop teasing me! Our bamboo raft is moving so fast that I might not be able to catch any fish even after fishing for an entire day!” Li Xiaoran said gloomily.

“Actually, that might not be the case. We might really be able to catch fish!” Wu Qinghe said.

After Li Xiaoran thought about it for a moment, she immediately gave up on the idea of trying.

It was better to sit here quietly and wait to arrive home!

At this moment, Li Xiaoran really wanted to go home!

They were originally out on a honeymoon, but who knew that they would encounter such an incident?

At this moment, she finally understood how it felt to miss home.

“I miss Father and Mother’s cured meat and sausages!” Li Xiaoran suddenly said.

Luo Cheng almost drooled when he heard Li Xiaoran’s words.

It had to be said that the cured meat sausages made by his parents-in-law were delicious!

Not to mention Li Xiaoran, he craved them too.

“Soon. If we’re lucky, we can return to Hele Village before the sun sets. I’ll secretly go back tonight and get you a piece of cured meat to cook!” Luo Cheng said.

“I also want to eat rice and potatoes! The potatoes my father planted previously should be edible by now!” Li Xiaoran thought of something and said.

“We can have rice. Let’s wait until we’re safe before we go home to eat the potatoes! If I dig potatoes for you to eat, Father-in-law will think that there’s a thief in the field and scold us!” Luo Cheng coaxed.

When Li Xiaoran imagined the scene of her father cursing the man who had stolen his potatoes, she couldn’t help but laugh.

“Alright, alright, alright. We’ll go back and dig potatoes when we’re safe!”

As they chatted and laughed, the bamboo raft drifted down the river for a long distance.

Later on, when she was really bored, Li Xiaoran asked Wu Qinghe if he had caught ghosts for other people before.

Speaking of this, Wu Qinghe had really encountered a few such incidents, so he told Li Xiaoran about them in detail.

“Speaking of which, I’ve really encountered ghosts before!” Wu Qinghe said, “At that time, those people even threw me into the haunted house. They said that as long as I spent the night in the haunted house, they would let me go!” When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately became excited.

“What happened then? Did you really stay in the haunted house all night?”

“Yes! At that time, I felt that as a prophet, I shouldn’t be afraid of these things. Besides, there are no ghosts in this world. Sometimes, bad things affect your thoughts and make you hallucinate, so you have the illusion that you’re seeing some strange things! That was what I thought at that time, so I slept there with peace of mind!” Wu Qinghe said.

“Did you encounter anything unusual at night?” Li Xiaoran asked.

“I really did!” Although Wu Qinghe didn’t want to admit it, he still said honestly, “At night, I kept feeling that my surroundings were too cold. I even got up to start a fire, then I finally felt a little warmer. But after that, I saw a girl appear behind me and was shocked.”

“A girl? A female ghost?” Li Xiaoran thought of something and asked.

“I don’t know if it was a female ghost or not, but I was really shocked when I saw that girl appear! However, when I looked at that girl, she had a shadow under the light of the fire. Moreover, her feet were on the ground. Although she appeared out of nowhere, she didn’t seem sinister or terrifying!” Wu Qinghe recalled carefully.

“If that’s the case, was she a human or a ghost?” Li Xiaoran guessed, “Could it be that someone pretended to be a ghost to scare people?”

When Wu Qinghe heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he immediately continued.

“I had the same thought as you, so I asked her who she was, if she wanted to scare me away, or if she had some sort of difficult situation. In the end, after she stared at me for a while, she smiled. After that, the girl vanished into thin air, as if she had never been there!”

“Huh? Turns out she was a ghost?” Li Xiaoran was a little surprised. She didn’t expect this ending.

“I was very shocked at that time. I was so afraid that I broke out in cold sweat. After that, I covered my head with my clothes and covered myself with a blanket. I didn’t dare to get up and walk around anymore. The next morning, I ran out at dawn and left that village!” Wu Qinghe said with lingering fear.

“Huh? Didn’t you say that those people wanted you to spend the night before leaving? You didn’t see anyone when you ran out?” Li Xiaoran asked curiously.

“I didn’t see anyone. Anyway, I was terrified at that time, so I ran as far away as I could from that place!” Wu Qinghe shook his head.

After Luo Cheng heard these words, he thought of something and said, “Perhaps it’s your bad luck that even ghosts are unwilling to see you.. They don’t want to be infected by your bad luck!”
