Chapter 92: Chapter 92: Ye You’s Petty Mindfulness_1
Grandma ghost went on talking for quite so ti, but from Qin Sisi’s perspective, the entire process was so dull that it lacked any suspense or twists and turns.
Ye You, obviously comprehending the situation, gave so low ows and exchanged a few words with Qin Sisi.
Qin Sisi subtly nodded, composed her thoughts, and said to Grandma ghost, "Grandma, I can help renovate your tomb, offer you incense and paper money, and even warn your descendants not to neglect you and make sure they visit your grave and worship you sincerely every festival."
Grandma ghost watched Qin Sisi with her eyes gleaming. Having lived for so many years, she naturally did not believe in such free goodwill.
Grandma ghost skeptically asked, "Girl, you can be forthright with . I may be old, but I am not muddle-headed."
Qin Sisi spoke directly, "I need Soul Power."
Upon hearing this, the Grandma ghost was so scared that she backed off, stuttering, "Girl, this is not a joking matter. I may be a ghost looking for food, but I can’t afford to scatter my soul for it!"
Qin Sisi continued to persuade her, "Grandma, as the saying goes, you lose so, you gain so. You have been stuck here for so long, maybe the ssenger of Death has already forgotten about you. Do you plan to be a wild ghost forever?"
Grandma ghost gasped and froze, mulling it over but refused to give in, "Even though I may just be a wild ghost, at least I can see my sons and grandsons from ti to ti. If my soul scatters, wouldn’t I be unable to see anything?"
What Grandma ghost said seed sowhat reasonable.
Qin Sisi frowned, pondered for a while before sarcastically saying, "You can see them, but they cannot see you. They don’t even go to worship you during the Qingming festival or the Ghost Festival. Doesn’t it seem pitiful for you as their ancestor?"
Grandma ghost looked miserable, struggled for words but couldn’t utter a single one.
Qin Sisi quickly took advantage of her mood and said, "Grandma, even if you stick around to watch over them, they will eventually forget about you. But, I have a way to make your descendants, onto generations rember you forever, and respect and miss you as their guardian spirit. Would you rather be a forgotten wild ghost or be rembered and revered as a great ancestor with your na engraved on a stone tablet?"
It seed that Grandma ghost was slightly persuaded, as her expression began to waver.
Qin Sisi continued, "Besides, your soul will not truly disappear, it rely scatters in different places. Over the lengthy ti, there will be tis of serendipity where your soul will regather. Whether you want to be a ghost or a human being, it’s your choice."
Ye You once ntioned that without the effect of the Spirit Gathering Pill, it would take at least a thousand years for the soul to regather. Qin Sisi didn’t dare ntion this tiline, fearing that it might scare Grandma ghost off for being too long.
Ye You confessed that he has only limited Spirit Gathering Pills, and not enough to distribute to every ghost, and asked Qin Sisi to try to convince her with other benefits.
So, Qin Sisi, normally not so eloquent, practically exhausted her linguistic skills, to the point of talking herself dry.
However, perhaps persistence pays, after so hesitation, Grandma ghost finally relented, "Girl, if you can truly fulfill your promises, I am willing to offer you the Soul Power."
A huge wave of relief washed over Qin Sisi, although she remained careful not to let her feelings show, lest Grandma ghost raised her demand for Soul Power.
Grandma ghost added, "Girl, let’s agree to this. You can’t trick a wolf without giving it sothing substantial, you must handle everything properly."
Qin Sisi responded with an emotion-less, "Naturally, don’t worry. But let
warn you first, once I’ve done my part, you must imdiately offer the Soul Power; if you dare to go back on your word..."
Qin Sisi glanced at Ye You, warning in a slow and asured tone, "My cat won’t let you off."
Going rigid, Grandma ghost glanced at Ye You’s purple eyes that were as deep as a pool. For so reason fear rose within her, and she hastened to say, "Girl, even though I am uneducated, I know the importance of keeping one’s word."
Qin Sisi nodded in satisfaction, "That’s good to know."
With the negotiation completed, there was no reason for Grandma ghost’s spirit to stay further, with a wave of his paw, she turned into a puff of black smoke and flew back into Ye You’s paw.
Lin Xiaoyu stood aside, dumbfounded, almost doubting the reality he lived in.
Qin Sisi walked up to him and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
Lin Xiaoyu slowly shook his head, speechless.
Ye You owed impatiently at the side. Lin Xiaoyu was still recovering and ignored him, but Qin Sisi naturally understood what was said.
Ye You stated, "We are done now. Can he leave now?"
Qin Sisi shot Ye You a speechless look but was sowhat afraid that Ye You might harm Lin Xiaoyu. So, she turned to Lin Xiaoyu, "It’s quite late. You should go ho and rest."
Lin Xiaoyu nodded sluggishly, struggling to his feet and walked few steps to the door. But then turned back to Qin Sisi and hesitantly asked, "Those things you said earlier, were you serious?"
Qin Sisi thought for a mont and asked, "You an, the things I promised to do for Grandma ghost?"
"Yes." Lin Xiaoyu affird, looking at Qin Sisi without blinking, seeming to have high expectations for the answer.
Qin Sisi decisively replied, "Of course, they were real."
Lin Xiaoyu fell silent for a while, nodded, and mused, "Turns out you’re not an ordinary person...So we truly are not ant to be."
Qin Sisi’s eyelashes fluttered slightly as she asked in a soft voice, "So...you still want to be my friend?"
Lin Xiaoyu lifted his head and said, "Of course, it would be my honor to be your friend."
Lin Xiaoyu’s sincere expression left a good impression on Qin Sisi, despite her lack of affection for him.
