Chapter 1639: Chapter 1639: I Honestly Can’t Do That

Moreover.

It’s still nighttime.

In such a sparsely populated small town.

Walking on a pitch-black street where you can’t see a soul.

Listening to the constant calls of owls ringing in your ears.

From time to time, a chilly mountain breeze would blow in.

In this environment, it naturally makes people involuntarily tense.

Let alone talk about ghosts!

That truly makes one’s hairs stand on end.

"Xiaofeng, are you sure that tomorrow the little boy, uh no, that ghost, will definitely come back to play football with Lu Ying?"

Mu Dongcheng looked at Chen Feng, took a deep breath, and asked.

"If nothing unexpected happens, he will definitely come, so I have to go again tomorrow no matter what!"

Chen Feng said.

"Then, is this ghost the culprit responsible for Lu Ying’s coma?"

Mu Dongcheng asked doubtfully.

"That’s still unclear. On the surface, it seems likely to be him, but I always feel something is off!"

Chen Feng shook his head, frowned, and said.

"Off?"

Mu Dongcheng asked doubtfully.

"Yes, if that little boy, the ghost, is indeed the culprit behind Lu Ying’s situation, then his objective has already been achieved, so why does he accompany Lu Ying to play football every day? I can’t quite figure that out!"

Chen Feng nodded, expressing his doubts.

"Indeed, at their age, let alone between humans and ghosts, there shouldn’t be any emotional attachment; why is this happening?"

Mu Dongcheng frowned in puzzlement.

"So, we have to wait until after four o’clock tomorrow afternoon before all these mysteries can be unraveled!"

Chen Feng said with a smile.

"What are you planning to do?"

Mu Dongcheng asked curiously.

"Catch the ghost!"

Chen Feng smirked, smilingly said.

"Hiss!"

Mu Dongcheng drew a breath quickly, then shook his head admiringly, "Xiaofeng, Xiaofeng, I’m really more impressed by you every day. Not only is your medical skill adept, your strength powerful, now you even do the work of a Taoist. Is there anything you can’t do?"

"Well..."

Chen Feng frowned in contemplation for a moment, then looked at Mu Dongcheng, grinned, and said, "How about getting pregnant and having a baby? That I really can’t do!"

"Get out of here!"

Mu Dongcheng laughed and swore.

"Haha!"

Chen Feng also laughed with a wide grin.

The two walked and chatted this way.

Before they knew it, they arrived at the rural inn Zhao Fang had mentioned.

Just as Zhao Fang said.

It was really small, shabby, and old.

Simply put.

This so-called rural inn was made by local residents, who added two more floors to their own houses and partitioned out some rooms to serve as inns.

But typically, no one comes to this small town.

Nor does anyone come here for tourism.

So the rooms in this inn remain vacant.

The owner is too lazy to clean and maintain, just leaving it idle, so naturally it’s worn-out. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

The floor, bed, are dusty, not to mention the spider webs throughout the room.

Though the conditions are tough, they can make do.

Chen Feng and Mu Dongcheng weren’t ones to shy away from hardship.

Chen Feng, back when he was in the military, slept wherever he had to during missions in the wild.

The sky as a quilt, the ground as a bed, sleeping in the wilderness was a common occurrence.

Now having a room to stay in is already quite good.

As for Mu Dongcheng, even though he was born into one of the four major families, the Mu Family.

He left the Mu Family early on to hone himself for competing to become the Family Head later on.

At the beginning of his career, he relied solely on himself, without any support from the Mu Family.

Imagine how tough the conditions were back then.

He was so poor once that he even slept on park benches.

So he can endure this hardship.

Due to it being an inn, and poorly managed, the owner just tended to booking rooms, not cleaning.

So Chen Feng and Mu Dongcheng borrowed a broom and cloth from the owner, and did a simple cleanup.

At the very least, they cleared out the dust and spider webs from the room.

With that, it’s barely livable.

As for bedding, Chen Feng took out some from his space ring and spread them over the beds.

Tonight’s accommodation was settled that way.

Actually, both could have stayed in the Tianqi World.

But the time in Tianqi World is different from outside.

Going in would lose track of time outside.

So they opted to stay here and make do.

After tidying up the room.

Chen Feng asked Mu Dongcheng to call the Chen Family to send over two brand-new footballs by noon tomorrow.

This was the bait for tomorrow’s plan, and needed to be prepared in advance.

Otherwise, without the balls, Lu Ying can’t play football, and the little boy definitely won’t appear.

Without that, there’s no way to catch him and uncover all the truth.

Everything set.

Chen Feng and Mu Dongcheng lay down to sleep.

Actually, for Chen Feng, sleep didn’t matter.

He could entirely replace sleep with cultivation.

So shortly after laying down.

Chen Feng sat up, crossed his legs on the bed, ready to enter a cultivation state.

Just then.

Mu Dongcheng also sat up.

Seeing this.

Chen Feng was also taken aback, smiled and asked, "Uncle Mu, why aren’t you sleeping?"

"Xiaofeng, do you think there might be ghosts in our room?"

Mu Dongcheng glanced around, looked at Chen Feng, somewhat worried and asked.

Though he wasn’t scared initially, after hearing Chen Feng say there are ghosts in the small town.

He felt as if ghosts were watching him now.

"Pfft!"

Chen Feng was also amused by Mu Dongcheng, shook his head, smiled and said, "Uncle Mu, just sleep soundly, I’m here, it’s fine! You’re scared of seeing them, they’re scared of seeing me!"

"Really okay?"

Mu Dongcheng remained a bit worried.

"It’s fine, rest assured, with me here, no monsters or ghosts can hurt you at all!"

Chen Feng smiled and said.

"Okay, with your words, I’m reassured!"

Mu Dongcheng nodded.

"Mm, sleep well, after a day on the road, you’re all worn out!"

Chen Feng said with a smile.

"Alright!"

Mu Dongcheng nodded, then lay back down.

Soon, Mu Dongcheng fell asleep.

After all, he’s just an ordinary person, with limited stamina.

Today afternoon, through mountains and dirt roads, had worn him out.

His head barely touched the pillow, and he was asleep.

Seeing this.

Chen Feng smiled and shook his head, then closed his eyes, took a deep breath, ready to activate his cultivation technique, entering into a cultivation state.

However, just then.

"Woo!!"

Suddenly, a piercingly cold wind blew in from the window outside.

Instantly, the temperature of the whole room plummeted...
