System: I help the home host meet Genshin Impact friends

Chapter 96: Immortal, please come this way

The eyes of the three people were focused on Ji Xiaoying.

Ji Xiaoying pretended to smile and said: "It's a new era now, and we are new youths! How can we believe such nonsense as ghosts!"

Xiao Zhongzhong glanced at Mandrill upon hearing this.

"It's nonsense, the immortal is standing in front of you alive."

Ji Xiaoying's expression froze: "Uh..."

Mandrill crossed his hands and said, "I have not noticed the presence of ghosts here, so you can rest assured."

If it really happened, maybe Mandrill would be happy.

Zhong Li also smiled when he heard this and said: "The mandrill's nickname is the Great Sage of Conquering Demons. Since he said he didn't, it naturally doesn't exist."

Ji Xiaoying said cautiously: "Really?"

Mandrill nodded.

Ji Xiaoying seemed relieved.

"I'm just telling you, Zi Buyu has strange powers and chaotic gods! A certain great man also said that all monsters, ghosts, and snakes are just paper tigers!"

Xiao Zhongzhong: ...The Nine Leak Fish has finally been exposed. Does Xiaoying really know what it means to have Zi Buyi's strange power and chaos?

('The Master does not say that strange powers confuse the gods': Confucius taught his disciples to stay away from ghosts and gods, and a gentleman should keep the right path in mind.)

Ji Xiaoying didn't know what impolite things Xiao Zhongzhong was thinking in her heart. She only knew that she could sleep peacefully at night.

"Let's go back to the room."

Ji Xiaoying began to disown her relatives, which is exactly what she said, why should she be afraid of ghosts when there are mandrills around?

When he wasn't soaking in the hot spring, Xiao Zhongzhong naturally got off Mandrill's head and followed Ji Xiaoying's tail.

Zhongli and Mandrill looked at each other.

Ji Xiaoying's character is, how should I put it, quite casual.

You will only think in the direction that is beneficial to you.

Ji Xiaoying's single room and Mandrill's double room are separate, one upstairs and one downstairs.

When she returned to the room, it was clearly before ten o'clock in the evening, but Ji Xiaoying felt sleepy.

Maybe it's because the hot springs I soaked in today have a sleep-promoting effect, plus I really had a lot of fun today.

Ji Xiaoying washed herself briefly and said to Xiao Zhongzhong: "Xiao Zhongzhong, I'm a little sleepy. Turn off the lights and go to bed first."

Xiao Zhongzhong looked strange when he heard this.

When did Ji Xiaoying go to bed so early? There is no need to go to class tomorrow.

But since Ji Xiaoying is asleep, she can also sleep.

After turning off the lights, Ji Xiaoying's steady breathing came from inside the room.

......

In the lobby on the first floor of the housing area, a man dressed as a manager ordered the cleaning staff to dry the washed work clothes.

The cleaning staff responded loudly, and then hung the work clothes to dry in the place where clothes are usually dried. It was an open space with a line connecting two trees.

This wire acts as a clothes drying pole.

The work clothes here are white, which looks even weirder under the moonlight.

The cleaning staff left the clothes to hang here and left.

Interestingly, if you look out the window from a certain room, you can see the clothes drying area.

......

In another room.

Zhongli was really not afraid of insomnia, he was still drinking tea at this hour.

He said: "It seems that there are really no ghosts in this world."

The topic in the hall seems to be a good idea to use as a leisurely activity after tea.

Mandrill replied: "I haven't encountered it yet."

"But the film and television works in this world have quite rich depictions of ghosts, which is incredible."

"The human heart is a ghost." (The human heart is a ghost: The human heart is like a ghost, diverse and unpredictable)

"Are you saying that someone is playing tricks on you, and that's why the concept of ghosts was derived?"

"Just a guess."

"Your guess is not unreasonable."

While the two were talking, there was a knock on the door.

Both Zhongli and Mandrill knew who the visitor was, so they were a little curious.

What's the matter with coming to see them so late?

Mandrill went over to open the door and saw a frightened Ji Xiaoying. She seemed to be in a panic. She didn't even have time to put on her coat and came over with slippers on her feet.

Little Zhongzhong was still held tightly in her arms.

Xiao Zhongzhong: "...Xiaoying, I can't breathe."

Mandrill was surprised and could not understand what happened to Ji Xiaoying to look like this.

"you......"

"elf!"

When Ji Xiaoying saw Mandrill, the expression on her face changed from fear to peace, as if she had seen a savior. She released the hand that was holding Xiao Zhongzhong tightly and pulled Mandrill's sleeve.

There were still a few tears hanging from the corners of Ji Xiaoying's eyes, which made Mandrill feel an inexplicable emotion that was difficult to express in words.

Is she...crying?

"Mandrill, you liar, didn't you tell me that there are no ghosts here?"

Ji Xiaoying's tone was still crying.

Mandrill was stunned, why did he come back to this topic again?

He said: "I didn't detect any evil aura... What did you see?"

The little Zhongzhong in Ji Xiaoying's arms pricked up his ears when he heard this (no), and he was also curious about what Ji Xiaoying saw.

Little Zhongzhong was sleeping well, but Ji Xiaoying yelled. Before it could react and ask what happened, Ji Xiaoying hurried over here carrying it.

Ji Xiaoying is still speaking intermittently, which shows that she is very frightened.

"White, white, floating outside the window!"

Ji Xiaoying danced with joy.

Ji Xiaoying finally finished saying this, and Xiao Zhongzhong added additional explanations.

"Apiao! It's Apiao!"

The role of watching horror movies is reflected at this time.

Mandrill tilted his head: "Apiao?" What a strange name.

Zhongli walked over from his seat: "It should be referring to ghosts."

Mandrill frowned: "I can detect even ghosts."

Ji Xiaoying felt aggrieved: "But there is! It's just outside the window! If you don't believe me, come with me and have a look!" When the mandrill passes, I'll teach that Ah Piao a lesson!

Seeing Ji Xiaoying speaking so firmly, Mandrill couldn't help but be shaken.

I thought: Could it be that the ghosts here and Teyvat are not the same system?

Mandrill nodded: "Okay, I'll go over and find out."

Zhongli: "Since the Great Sage of Conquering Demons has gone in person, it doesn't matter whether I go or not. I'll just sit here and wait for the Great Sage to return."

Ji Xiaoying said it didn't matter, as long as Zhongli and Mandrill had someone to accompany her to strengthen their courage!

Oh, except for Xiao Zhongzhong.

Xiao Zhongzhong: I always feel like someone is thinking about rude things.

"Then let's leave quickly! What if that Ah Piao runs away?"

Ji Xiaoying began to pretend to be powerful, domineering, and rebel against Tiangang!

Now he is chasing Ah Piao.

Xiao Zhongzhong: "..."

elf:"......"

Who was crying for father and mother just now?

Zhongli nodded in approval: "It makes sense."

After Ji Xiaoying said this, she wanted to take the lead in the charge, but after careful consideration, she huddled behind Mandrill.

"You go first!"
