Chapter 76 The Knocking Ghost Returns for Revenge

Li Junfei and Fatty chatted their way to the milk tea shop.

Meanwhile.

After Zhang Wei finished his meal, since Qiu Xiaolin and the others had student union activities, they said goodbye to Zhang Wei, promising that Zhang Wei would come to the dormitory in the evening and they would meet him.

"You should go too."

Qiu Xiaolin wanted to stay and accompany Zhang Wei, but he refused, not wanting to delay her student union activities.

"I'll go browse the shops in Wenling City."

Zhang Wei pinched Qiu Xiaolin's small round face and said,

"Is there anything you want me to buy? Since I'm here, I'll get you a gift."

Qiu Xiaolin playfully chided Zhang Wei, rubbing her face, "You're pinching my face again. I suspect my face got round because you kept pinching it. No need, I don't want anything."

"Are you sure? Don't worry about my money. I went to the Northeast and earned hundreds of thousands in a few days."

"Ah? Then you should have said so earlier! I want an action figure~"

Qiu Xiaolin's small round face lit up with a cute smile, her dimples making her even more adorable and tempting to pinch.

Afterward.

Zhang Wei waved goodbye to Qiu Xiaolin and went to explore the shops in Wenling City.

As night fell.

Zhang Wei finally returned to Wenling University.

At this time.

On the campus roads, it was already evening, and there weren't many people. Only a few couples were scattered on the lawn or on seats under the dim streetlights, affectionately enjoying their sweet romance.

Zhang Wei paid them no mind and headed straight for the girls' dormitory.

"Wait, is this student a freshman?"

Suddenly, someone stopped Zhang Wei.

It was two second-year male students. Seeing Zhang Wei heading towards the girls' dormitory, they assumed he was drunk.

As soon as they spoke.

When Zhang Wei turned to look at them, the two were startled by his appearance.

"Hey, it's you!"

The two second-year students recognized Zhang Wei. Wasn't this the guy they saw at the school gate this morning, surrounded by four beautiful classmates like Qiu Xiaolin and Zhang Yan, who were all doting on him? They had even called Zhang Wei a winner in life back then.

"You know me?" Zhang Wei asked, confused.

"No, I know Zhang Ya and the others."

One of the second-year male students explained briefly, stating they had seen Zhang Wei and the others that morning.

Then he said,

"Junior, I didn't expect this. You're not chasing classmates, but senior sisters first."

Zhang Wei replied politely. Since he had made plans with Zhang Ya and the others to go to the girls' dormitory, he didn't want to chat for too long.

He casually gave a reason for pursuing a girl and walked towards the girls' dormitory.

Out of curiosity.

As second-year students, the two male students knew that the girls' dormitory was off-limits at night. Yet, now Zhang Wei was going to enter the girls' dormitory to pursue a girl. They were curious how he would do it and how he would get in, wanting to learn from him.

As a result, the two secretly followed Zhang Wei and witnessed a scene they would never forget.

They saw Zhang Ya, Qiu Xiaolin, Lin Ping, and Zhou Xiaoqing appear at the entrance of the girls' dormitory.

Three of them were chatting with the dormitory aunt.

Then, Zhang Ya made a gesture with her hand, and Qiu Xiaolin stepped forward to hand Zhang Wei a girl's jacket. Zhang Wei then swaggered into the girls' dormitory.

"Holy..."

"Zhang Ya and them..."

The eyes of the two second-year male students were wide open.

They could tell that Qiu Xiaolin and Zhang Ya were clearly in cahoots, working together to get a guy into their dormitory.

And...

They also saw.

After Zhang Wei entered the dormitory, Zhang Ya and the other two girls quickly found an excuse to say goodbye to the dormitory aunt and hurried back to their rooms.

The three girls' eager demeanor made them think that they were afraid that if they were any later, Qiu Xiaolin would have them all to herself.

This scene.

It made their eyes water, feeling like their hearts were bleeding.

After a long moment of daze.

One of the second-year male students finally came to his senses and said leisurely,

"What exactly did that junior do to be so... outstanding? How about we sneak into the girls' dormitory to take a look?"

"Sure!"

...

That night.

In the girls' dormitory, room 5233.

At this time.

Zhang Wei, under the guise of concealing his presence to avoid being discovered by the female ghost in advance, was wearing Qiu Xiaolin's pajamas and playing a 4399 game at his computer desk.

"Zhang Wei, do you think the female ghost will come today? What if she doesn't come for several days? We can't have you living here forever, though we don't mind."

Zhang Ya asked worriedly, feeling a bit scared as it was already night.

Not just her.

Qiu Xiaolin and the others were also scared. Even with Zhang Wei present, they were still shaken by what happened last night.

Zhang Wei waved his hand,

"Don't worry, the female ghost won't stay away for too long. When people die and become ghosts, either they have unfinished business, or they have too much resentment from their past life. Ghosts that can harm people can only be the latter. Such ghosts formed by negative emotions are always vengeful. If they said they would get revenge, they definitely won't wait too long. Besides, it's the Qingming Festival period, the Ghost Gate is wide open, and the yin energy is heavy. This is when ghosts are strongest. If they want revenge, they'll choose the nearest opportunity."

Then.

He looked at the frightened expressions of Qiu Xiaolin and the others.

"You don't need to be scared. It's just a ghost, what's there to be afraid of?"

As he spoke, Zhang Wei seemed to recall something and slowly said,

"When I was a child, my dad told me that ghosts aren't scary, and there are things scarier than ghosts. He also told me a saying: people fear ghosts three parts, ghosts fear people seven parts. So, when you encounter a ghost..."

Before he could finish.

Zhang Wei sensed something and suddenly looked towards the dormitory door.

The ghost had arrived.

...

At the same time.

On the fifth-floor corridor of the girls' dormitory, it was already 10 PM. The corridor was silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

However...

This silent corridor was not empty.

A 'woman' appeared from somewhere and walked down the fifth-floor corridor without making a sound. In fact... her heartbeat couldn't even be heard, even though she was walking right there.

Upon closer inspection.

The 'woman' had pale skin, and through her hair, her disheveled face was visible, covered in blood.

She was the knocking female ghost from last night!

Now, with the Ghost Gate wide open and the yin energy heavy, she had recovered from her injuries after a night.

Just as Zhang Wei had predicted, the knocking female ghost came for revenge as soon as she recovered.

She walked step by step towards room 5233, her bloody face filled with hatred. She looked down at a small flute in her hand and said,

"You will all die tonight!"

She muttered sinisterly in her heart, having already planned to brutally dismember Qiu Xiaolin and the others.

To deal with Qiu Xiaolin's chewing gum, the knocking female ghost had obtained a ghost artifact from somewhere. Just as ghost exorcists have artifacts to deal with ghosts, ghosts also have items to deal with exorcists, which are called ghost objects or ghost artifacts.

Then...

Just as she reached the dormitory door and was about to enter.

Creak.

The female ghost froze. Before she could even make a move, the dormitory door opened on its own.

[Ding! The knocking female ghost is confused. What's going on? The door isn't closed?... Damn it, did I go to the wrong door?!]

[Host gains System Points +10]

The knocking female ghost stared at Zhang Wei, who was standing at the dormitory door wearing women's pajamas, stunned for a moment.

...
