A Bug’s Desire To Survive

It was raining lightly in the sky, so I originally parked my car a little far from the market, then opened my umbrella and walked along the street. Behind her, a ghostly figure hovered lightly on her shoulders, looking around in amazement.

There are many tall buildings on both sides of the road, all kinds of vehicles shuttle back and forth, men and women walk in the rain, singing is heard from time to time, and bright advertisements are played on the large LED screen, everything is familiar and unfamiliar.

He Jinxiu couldn't remember how long it had been since he had gone out. He originally thought that he would never have a chance to see the outside world again in this life, but he didn't expect the surprise to come so unexpectedly.

【is it you? 】He Jinxiu looked at the girl's back, both grateful and puzzled.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Yuan Chu came to the vegetable market and slowly picked fresh ingredients.

【I want to eat eggplant. ] He Jinxiu patted Wei Yuanchu on the shoulder, pointing to the plump eggplants and asking.

Yuan Chu took a step and picked four eggplants.

[There are also beef, prawns, potatoes, mushrooms...] He reported a large list of ingredient names.

Yuan Chu didn't get used to him this time, and bought what she needed on her own.

He Jinxiu said depressedly: [Don't play stupid, I know you can hear my voice. 】

Yuan Chu let him chatter behind his back without changing his face, and slowly left the market with the things he bought.

When I went back, I took a detour and passed the pedestrian streets, playgrounds and other lively places. The colorful world attracted He Jinxiu's eyes as expected, and the strong ghost spirit on his body also dissipated little by little in happiness, and gradually returned to his original handsomeness.

He was still a child, and even though he was treated so cruelly by his relatives, he still maintained the innocence that a child should have.

Back at the parking place, the original ingredients were put into the trunk.

【Are you going back? Ladies, let's go shopping! 】He Jinxiu said reluctantly.

Yuan Chu: I might promise you a better name.

[Hey, woman, did you hear that? 】

He ignored him at first, and was about to put away the umbrella when he suddenly made a sudden movement and looked in a certain direction.

Three men in suits and leather shoes came out of a hotel, all with entertaining smiles on their faces, shook hands with each other, and seemed to be talking happily.

When He Jinxiu saw those people, his face was confused at first, and then he showed a hideous expression, his eyes gradually became bloodthirsty, and the ghostly energy on his body became more and more intense.

【Second uncle! 】Sen Leng's voice was full of anger and hatred.

The mood that brought him out to relax in the first place was instantly restored to its original shape, and it was even more painful.

He Jinxiu rushed towards those people fiercely, but as soon as he left the range of the umbrella, he was brought back by a suction force.

【Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh it is as if he lost his mind and let out a roar like a trapped beast, the ghost energy he released recklessly eroded the original body bit by bit, making her feel icy cold to the bone.

Yuan Chu has not yet established contact with the child of luck, and his body is collapsing every day, unable to admit the damage of external forces.

But she couldn't let He Jinxiu go to seek revenge from the He family members. The He family members believed in Feng Shui and numerology for generations, and each of them carried at least one illuminated magic weapon or possessed amulet. With He Jinxiu's half-dead state of being away from the soul, it was basically close to If you can't get close to them, forcibly getting close will only hurt yourself.

There are only two ways to get rid of the current situation. One is to completely give up the physical body, concentrate on practicing the ghost realm, and become a ghost king who controls Yin and Yang.

Originally hoped he would choose the latter. Cultivating ghost realms is a very dangerous path, and if you are not careful, you will be completely undone. Once the child of luck is reduced to a tool of hatred and sex, she will lose the opportunity to transcend the way of heaven, and she will not be able to share his luck with him.

Yuan Chu slowly put away the umbrella, and He Jinxiu's ghostly figure was also included in it.

"Go home."

After returning to the villa, He Jinxiu immediately hid in the room, and the whole ghost fell into deep depression.

"Master Jinxiu, it's time to eat." The original voice came into He Jinxiu's ears along with the door opening.

【Don't eat, get out! 】 He let out a hoarse growl.

Yuan Chu helped the person on the bed up and found that his brows were slightly wrinkled. The emotions of the soul will also affect the body's response to a certain extent. The vitality has not been cut off, and there is still hope of integration.

Yuan Chu helped him adjust to a comfortable posture, and while feeding, he said, "Master Jinxiu, how about I teach you to study from tomorrow?"

The ghost in the corner was motionless, trying his best not to let himself go mad.

"I heard that you used to be a smart child, and it was only after some accidents that you became like this." Yuan Chu continued, "You are not in a vegetative state, and you are not unresponsive to the outside world. I will accompany you to study and teach you knowledge. When you get better one day, you don't have to worry about not keeping up with the times in the future."

Ghost Shadow: It can't be cured, it can never be cured!

He couldn't fight against the entire He family at all, he could only stay here and be a living dead for the rest of his life!

"Don't be discouraged." Yuan Chu gently wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth, "You are only 13 years old, and there is still a long way to go in the future. Persevere and there will always be miracles."

Ghost: Will there be?

Yuan Chu suddenly changed the subject: "How much did you remember about the English I read to you yesterday?"

Ghost Shadow: Do you believe it or not?

"I know you can't answer me, so..." Yuan Chu packed up the tableware, then took out a pen and paper, wrote "yes" and "no" respectively, and smiled, "Let's play with the pen fairy, if the pen fairy answers' Yes', I'll take it as you learned, and if the answer is 'no', I'll keep reading."

Ghost Shadow turned back suddenly, staring at her sullenly: Do you have a hole in your brain? Does the pen fairy play like this? !

Yuan Chu pulled up He Jinxiu's hand, clasped his fingers together, clamped the pencil, and placed it on the paper.

"Pixian Bixian, I am your life, if you want to continue your relationship with me, please draw a circle on the paper."

As soon as the voice fell, Ghost Shadow felt a suction, making him involuntarily come to the pencil.

Yuan Chu: "Are you here?"

The ghost's thought moved, and the pencil moved with it, making a circle on the word "yes".

Yuan Chu: "Can I ask you a question?"

The ghost suppressed the excitement, and circled the word "yes" again.

Yuan Chu: "I want to know if Young Master Jinxiu understands what I read to him yesterday?"

Ghost: Yes Yes Yes!

Pencils circle like crazy.

Yuan Chu: "Really?"

Ghost: Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes!

The pencil was like a draft, almost piercing the paper.

Yuan Chu: "Okay, I understand, thank you." Then he said, "I am your life, if you want to leave, please exit the paper."

Ghost: No no no! ! !

Yuan Chu: "...I have no other questions, please leave."

Ghosting: No No No No No No No!

Yuan Chu: "...It's good to get together and break up. It's not difficult to get together again. I'll call you next time."

Ghosting: No No No No No No No!

Yuan Chu: "I will call you once a day from now on."

Ghost:  …

After struggling for a long time, I finally circled the word "yes" and left the page.

"Thank you." Yuan Chu released his hand, put away the pen and paper, and the original suction disappeared.

The ghost tried to control the pencil, but it didn't work, and it probably took some kind of pulling ritual to communicate.

Although only a simple communication, but this change is enough to make him feel excited. He decided not to scare her for the time being and allowed her to stay in the villa for a few more days.

He didn't realize that Yuan Chu's actions just now made his originally depressed mood become cheerful again.

The next day, Yuan Chu didn't know where to find the textbook for junior high school. He taught him from scratch, took the trouble to take notes, focused on key points, and completely treated He Jinxiu as a normal person.

She also massaged him on time and helped him recover.

He Jinxiu was just a mental disorder caused by the separation of the soul. It was not that he had no ability to move. As long as he was guided patiently, it would be no problem to learn simple language and actions.

Ghost Shadow watched her swing her body, doing things that seemed useless to him, her mood was unexpectedly calm, and her eyes softened.

In the evening, the pen fairy game that Ghost Shadow was looking forward to is about to start again.

This time, Yuan Chu added a lot of content to the paper. In addition to "yes" and "no", there are also red, yellow, blue, green, orange, purple, black and white, and 10 Arabic numerals.

After the preparations were done, Yuan Chu finished reading the opening remarks and asked, "Pixian, Bixian, are you here yet?"

Ghost: Yes!

"Can I ask you a question?"

Ghost: Yes!

"I gave Master Jinxiu three classes today. Which one did he learn the best? 1. Chinese, 2. Mathematics, 3. History."

Ghosts: 2!

"Which is his favorite?"

Ghosts: 2!

"Really? Then I want to test him, can you give him a test?"

Ghost: Yes.

"If a, b, c are positive real numbers and satisfy abc=1, what is the minimum value of the algebraic formula (a+1)(b+1)(c+1)?"

Ghosting: 8.

Is it okay to do math problems with a pen fairy? ? ?

"Not bad." Yuan Chu praised, "It seems that Young Master Jin Xiu's mathematics is not bad. Next time I will test the level of other subjects."

Yuan Chu then changed another question: "What color do you like, Master Jinxiu?"

The pencil hesitantly sketched in seven colors, and finally focused on a few circles in blue, purple, and black.

Yuan Chu: "Then I'll change him into the blue pajamas tonight, the sheets and quilts into purple, and the black slippers for him. He must like it."

The ghost quietly curved the corners of his mouth.

Yuan Chu continued: "Tomorrow there will be another math class and another music class. What do you think, Master Jinxiu?"

Ghost: Good! (Yes Yes Yes)

"Let's come here first today? Pen Immortal Pen Immortal, I am your life, if you want to leave, please leave the paper." Yuan Chu decided to take it step by step and promote the relationship between the two a little bit.

Ghost Shadow hesitated for a while, and finally made a circle around the word "yes". Come to Japan for a long time, don't be too hasty!

Yuan Chu put away the pen and paper, and said to the boy who was leaning on the bed, "Tomorrow is a fine weather, shall I take you for a walk in the yard?"

The young master's eyelashes trembled a few times, his eyes shifted slightly in her direction, his fingers were slightly folded, and he weakly tugged at the quilt.

"It's getting late, get ready to go to bed." Yuan Chu helped the young master to clean up, put on blue pajamas, put on a purple quilt, helped him lie down, said "good night" and left.

The ghost followed her out of the room, and waited until she fell asleep before leaving quietly.

The originally painful and desperate life seems to have become interesting because of this person's arrival.

[Keep going, there will always be a miracle. 】

What Yuan Chu had said before echoed in He Jinxiu's mind again.

Miracle, will it really happen?

Can he expect anything?

The author has something to say: He Jinxiu: This is the first time I know that the pen fairy can play like this...
