Chapter 1015 A Deal with the Female Ghos

Gu Ning understood that the man in the painting must be the female ghost’s husband.

“The painting won’t be the same even if I stick the pieces back together,” Gu Ning said.

“It’s fine as long as they can be a whole,” the female ghost said.

“Well, I think that’s easy and I can do it for you right now,” Gu Ning said, and a bottle of glue showed up in her hand the next second, which amazed the female ghost.

The female ghost thought that Gu Ning could use magic.

Gu Ning would keep her magical power as a secret in front of humans, but it would be fine if she used her magical power in front of ghosts.

Humans couldn’t see ghosts, so ghosts weren’t able to leak the information to them. In addition, Gu Ning also needed to show her ability to make the ghosts fear her.

“Didn’t you say that you’re just a normal human? How come you can use magic?” the female ghost asked.

“I’m sorry, it’s a secret. Don’t worry, I won’t use it against you as long as you’re cooperative,” Gu Ning said.

The female ghost closed its mouth at once. It sensed that Gu Ning wasn’t simple at all, so it didn’t dare to annoy her.

Gu Ning soon stuck the pieces of the painting back together, but there were many cracks left on it.

The female ghost’s face lit up the second the painting went back to normal, but its pale face looked quite frightening with the happy expression.

“Please wait a moment. I need to have a try to see whether I can stay in it,” the female ghost said to Gu Ning.

“Sure,” Gu Ning said.

Afterwards, the female ghost became a thin line of red light then entered the painting.

The female ghost didn’t actually become a part of the painting, but it was appreciating the world displayed by the painting.

In the world, there were real mountains, houses, flowers and trees. The man was dancing with a sword, while the woman was playing the zither.

Everything seemed to be a movie which was played in front of the female ghost. Although it couldn’t touch them, it felt quite satisfied watching them from the side.

The female ghost could only feel happiness when it was with its husband at this moment.

It didn’t forget that Gu Ning was still waiting for her outside the painting, so it came out a few seconds later. It put on a serious face and said to Gu Ning, “If you don’t want me to cause any trouble again if this painting is torn to pieces, please take good care of it. If this painting is badly damaged, it’ll be meaningless to repair it.”

The female ghost threatened Gu Ning because it was unwilling to be apart from its husband again.

It was what Gu Ning wanted too, so she didn’t mind it.

“No problem, I’ll put it away properly,” Gu Ning said.

“Great,” the female ghost said.

When it was about to get back to the painting, Gu Ning stopped it. “Wait a second.”

“What?” the female ghost asked.

“Could you please tell me where this painting was kept before?” Gu Ning understood that this batch of ancient objects must be out of a grave, and there must be many still on the market.

The female ghost was struck dumb for a second. It looked sad, then stayed alert. “Why do you want to know?”

“Since the painting of you is here, the place where it was kept before must have been disturbed by someone. Those ancient objects are all covered in Yin, and you should know that Yin is harmful for normal humans. I think I should do something,” Gu Ning said.

Gu Ning wouldn’t sit on her hands. She was the only one in this world who could see ghosts and monsters with her Jade Eyes, and she had met multiple strange things ever since her rebirth. It must have something to do with her, so she had the duty to investigate it.

The female ghost suddenly thought of something, and it believed that only this young girl in front of it could help it.

After thinking for a while, the female ghost said, “I can tell you, but you must help me do something.”

“What is it?” Gu Ning asked. She didn’t agree with the female ghost right away, because she wasn’t sure whether she could help it or not.

Although Gu Ning seemed to be super powerful and like there was nothing she couldn’t do, it didn’t mean that she could solve every problem.

“Please help me move the master coffin in that grave to another place so that nobody can damage it again, and the painting of me should be put into the coffin too,” the female ghost said.

“Sure, it’s easy,” Gu Ning said.

Afterwards, the female ghost told Gu Ning the location of the grave.

“I don’t know how long I’ve been dead till now, so I probably can’t tell you the detailed location of the grave. I was born in 1681 and died in 1697. I was 16 that year when I died, and it was my wedding day…”

The female ghost told Gu Ning the tragic story behind her death.

“I was the daughter of a cabinet official, and grew up with the son of a duke. We became a couple after overcoming many difficulties, and thought that we could finally live a happy life together. However, my husband abruptly died of a serious disease on our wedding day, and people blamed me for it. I suffered from verbal abuse and humiliation, but my husband’s mother burned me to death in the end. She even made people believe that I committed suicide out of guilt.”
