My Wife Is The Big Boss

Chapter 34: You're Quite Clever

"Xiao Qian, are we using the wrong approach to attract customers? No one has come in recently."

"Yeah, yeah, everyone is starving. *whimper*"

Inside the temple, a group of girls surrounded the woman sitting in front of the main hall, whining and pouting. Xiao Qian also felt a headache coming on. A voice in her mind told her that this was the right way to attract people, so why wasn't this person playing by the rules?

Maybe she should go after him and ask.

"Stop whining, everyone! Wait for me to come back!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the woman disappeared. Fang Leng, who was running away for his life, heard a faint female voice say, "Sir, please wait."

Fang Leng's hair stood on end. Oh my god, it's a ghost!

Fang Leng quickly grabbed the red rooster, which was said to ward off evil spirits. He didn't dare to leave his back exposed to a ghost. But thinking about the supernatural novels he had read, they all said that if you heard someone calling you and turned around, the yang fire on your shoulder would be extinguished.

So...

Fang Leng performed a perfect 180-degree mid-air spin. That should do it!

Xiao Qian watched Fang Leng's actions, looking confused.

She scratched her head. Is there something wrong with this person's brain?

When Fang Leng saw Xiao Qian, information about her appeared before his eyes.

[Xiao Qian, Level 50 Legendary Level Boss

Skills: Unknown

Description: The owner of Ruolan Temple, a thousand-year-old female ghost]

Looking at the level 50 boss in front of him, Fang Leng felt that the moonlight tonight was truly chilling.

"Miss, what can I do for you?" Fang Leng wasn't particularly panicked. After all, he had the protective treasure Yao Guang had given him. Even if he couldn't win, it didn't necessarily mean he would be in danger. However, talking to a female ghost still felt strange.

Although this female ghost was quite attractive, Fang Leng definitely didn't have any thoughts about... you know.

"The young lady sees that the gentleman is in a hurry. Why not rest in my humble abode and continue your journey tomorrow morning?"

Fang Leng quickly shook his head to refuse.

"No, no, I appreciate your kindness, but I have urgent matters to attend to. I can't afford to delay even for a moment."

How could he go to her place? If he went, he might end up being eaten, with not even a bone left. Who knows how many female ghosts were waiting for him?

"Do you know that I'm a ghost?" Fang Leng was still thinking about whether he could fool Xiao Qian, but she straightforwardly said it. Fang Leng's scalp instantly went numb. How am I supposed to respond to that?

Should I transform now, from a beauty into a terrifying evil ghost?

"Why did you figure it out? Didn't we disguise ourselves well?"

Xiao Qian scratched her chin and muttered to herself, looking somewhat silly.

Fang Leng couldn't help but laugh. Anyone with a normal IQ wouldn't enter Ruolan Temple!

"What are you laughing at?"

Xiao Qian tilted her head and asked, "This tilted head pose is kind of cute, and it made Fang Leng's guard against her slightly decrease."

He had seen this ghost before, and after exchanging a few words, it didn't seem so terrifying anymore.

Fang Leng shook his head and said, "It's nothing, just thought of something funny."

"Oh, I see that the young master is dressed unusually, so I assume you are a knowledgeable person. You saw through our illusion with just one glance earlier. Xiao Qian wants to ask how the young master saw through it, so that we can correct this mistake in the future. If the young master is willing to tell, Xiao Qian will be very grateful. Please rest assured, although I am a ghost, I never harm anyone."

Fang Leng: "......"

You really are a curious old female ghost!

Actually, just based on Xiao Qian's name, Fang Leng somewhat believed her words. The problem was that Fang Leng didn't remember setting a boss named Xiao Qian. She was probably not that important! But Fang Leng suddenly had a whimsical thought, what if I tell her? Would it affect the original plot of the game world and thus affect the design of the behind-the-scenes existence?

With this thought in mind, Fang Leng cleared his throat and said, "The buildings created in the illusion are quite realistic, but a temple suddenly appearing in the wilderness is too abrupt and too eerie, making people scared. If it were a small village with lights on, people's guard would be lowered. And the name Ruolan Temple is not good, I suggest changing it."

"I see, the young master is truly talented. Xiao Qian always keeps her word. Is there anything the young master needs help with?"

"No, it's fine. Let's part ways here, I still have a long way to go!"

Fang Leng refused Xiao Qian's gratitude and indicated that he was leaving.

Although he encountered a ghost tonight, at least he didn't have any conflicts with this thousand-year-old female ghost. As for any repayment, he didn't expect it.

Xiao Qian, however, said seriously, "Since the young master is on the road, why not tell Xiao Qian where you are heading? Xiao Qian can help."

"Oh? I'm going to Xu State City."

Fang Leng was somewhat skeptical, how can a ghost like you help?

Xiao Qian was also a bit embarrassed and said, "I can't touch Xu State City with my power, but I can send the young master near Xu State City, saving you from the trouble of traveling."

Huh, there's such a function?

Fang Leng suddenly felt a force binding him, and he didn't resist for the time being because this force didn't seem malicious.

[Xiao Qian has used Ghost Descent on you, and you have arrived in a human village.]

After Xiao Qian sent Fang Leng away, she also felt a bit tired, but she quickly became happy. She felt like someone who had obtained the secret to starting a business and was now full of passion.

Xiao Qian returned to Ruolan Temple and soon after, she told her sisters what she had learned. Not long after, the place where Ruolan Temple was located became a small village, and Xiao Qian personally created an inn.

"Ruolan Temple is not a good name, let's call it Red Dust Inn!"

Xiao Qian pinched her chin and thought the name was pretty good.

If Fang Leng knew, he would probably be speechless.

In the main storyline he set, because the humans couldn't defeat the Monster Race, they needed to win over the Ghost Race, as humans and ghosts were of the same origin. And the chapter name of the main storyline was Red Dust Inn...

After a dizzying moment, Fang Leng opened his eyes again and found himself in a village, still holding Da Hong in his arms.

Although it was nighttime, this village was much livelier than Fang Family Village.

Because Immortal Seeking Dream was becoming more and more popular, more and more people were entering the game, and the newbie village was crowded day and night.

Fang Leng's sudden appearance didn't attract anyone's attention. That's the magical thing about Ghost Descent, it's similar to teleportation spells, but teleportation spells would draw attention, while Ghost Descent wouldn't. Only when one reaches a certain level of perception can they detect it.

He didn't know where he was, but as long as he was in a gathering place for humans, he could take a carriage to the city tomorrow.

First, find a place to rest.

Fang Leng held Da Hong and prepared to find a place to stay when he suddenly saw a familiar figure passing by. She was wearing a scholar's robe and seemed to be in a hurry. Fang Leng couldn't help but exclaim, "Nan Nan!"
