The thing that stood out was a white candle.
"Shopkeeper, why is this candle still burning?”
Yan Qin stopped and looked at the white candle on the candlestick. It was burning with a yellow flame. In the dark sky, it looked indescribably strange.
The shopkeeper stopped in his tracks and hurried forward to blow out the candle. He said with a straight face,""The servant must be lazy. The sky is already bright, but he actually forgot to extinguish the candle.”
It turned out that the servant was slacking off. Yan Qin's lips twitched and he turned around to bring Wuxin back to his room.
Because the two of them had to help catch ghosts, they were free of charge. There were even people serving tea and water up and down, serving them very thoughtfully.
After taking a bath in the warm bucket, Yan Qin lay on the bed and asked Wuxin,""Did you really not notice anything wrong during the day, or did you deliberately want to keep the shopkeeper in suspense so that you could ask for an exorbitant price when you catch the ghost?”
After all, Wuxin's personality was more or less a little treacherous.
Back when Master Wuxin was popular, Yan Qin remembered that in order to earn gold bars on TV, Wuxin had hung onto Gu Xuan Wu like this and demanded an exorbitant price in the end.
Therefore, Yan Qin was naturally curious.
Wuxin frowned and shook her head." I really didn't find anything. Although there was some Yin Qi in that house, there was nothing wrong with it. Even the resentment was very weak, so it wasn't fatal at all. Forget it. I'll go out and take a look at it at midnight."”
"Alright, then let's sleep for a while."
As Yan Qin spoke, he put on his clothes and lay on the bed, but he could not fall asleep.
After coming to this world, Yan Qin realized that everything here was unpredictable. It did not follow the routine of the TV series at all. Even now, he did not know if there were ghosts in this inn. He only felt a chill all over his body.
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy Yan Qin felt.
Soon, it was the second watch. It was a dark night without even the moon. It was very quiet outside.
The Evils loved to be active in this kind of weather.
Wuxin opened her eyes and quietly went out. She went to the surroundings of the inn to check if there was anything wrong. Only Yan Qin was left in the room.
"Pa da…"
At this moment, the candle that had been burning suddenly went out after Wuxin left. The room fell into darkness.
Yan Qin got up from the bed and felt uneasy. Looking at the pitch-black night, he could not help but panic. Just as he was about to light the candle again, he saw a bright lantern approaching from afar.
"Sir, the wick of the candle has gone out. I'll replace it with a new candle for you.”
The person holding the lantern was the manservant of the inn. At this moment, he was holding a new candle in his hand and said to Yan Qin with a smile.
Yan Qin heaved a sigh of relief." Your inn's service is quite good. Someone even came to deliver candles in the middle of the night. Hurry up and light them up. Bring me something to eat while you're at it."”
Yan Qin was very hungry after being in fear for most of the night.
The servant hurriedly walked into the room and put down the lantern. With the light from the lantern, he replaced the candle on the candlestick with a new one. Then, he took out an old-fashioned match and began to light the candle.
"Pa da…"
Just as it was lit, the candle went out again.
After repeating this process for more than ten times, even when the match in the servant's hand was used up, the candle still failed to light up.
"Are your matches expired?" Yan Qin was a little impatient. It was fine if it didn't light up, but he would make do with it for the night.”
The servant did not give up. He lowered his head and said,"Please wait a moment. I'll go get some more matches."”
After saying that, he didn't wait for Yan Qin to say anything and left with the lantern.
Yan Qin was dumbfounded. He simply sat on the chair and waited for the servant to bring him another match.
Not long after, the servant boy came over with a match. However, the strange thing was that the situation this time was exactly the same as before. The match had been lit up, but the candle was still not lit.
The servant's face was tense as he stared at Yan Qin sinisterly.""Did you do it?"
Yan Qin was annoyed." Your candle has expired. What does it have to do with me?"”
Damn it, how could he be blamed for not lighting the candle?
Candles…
Candles…
Suddenly, an image flashed in Yan Qin's mind.
Yes, there was a white candle burning in the room of the person who died last night. When he went out, he even asked the shopkeeper.
However, was there something wrong with this candle?
This unknown danger and speculation made Yan Qin feel a chill down his spine. He could not help but say again,"It's fine if it doesn't light up. You can leave. I'm going to sleep.”
The manservant did not leave. Instead, he approached Yan Qin step by step,""Even the Soul Hooking Candle couldn't touch your soul. I want to see how different you are from the others.”
What did this person say?
Soul-Sucking Candle?
Soul?
F * ck!
Even if Yan Qin was slow to react, he could guess that the person in front of him was not human. He immediately turned around, picked up a stool, and threw it at him.
The manservant was frighteningly strong. He caught the stool out of thin air and cried out. He pushed Yan Qin to the ground and wanted to kiss him.
If this was a woman, Yan Qin might not be so disgusted. But now, the person who was lying on him and wanting to kiss him was a real master. How could he obey?
Yan Qin used all his strength, but he still failed to resist. He was directly pressed to the ground by the servant and kissed.
With this kiss, Yan Qin felt his body suddenly lighten. This lightness was not the lightness of his body, but something that was leaving his body.
Yan Qin, who had a rough understanding of this world, could guess what was going on. The reason why this servant kissed him was because he wanted to absorb his essence!
Damn it.
Yan Qin was unwilling. Was he going to die just like that?
He was someone with a cheat!
However, the system, which Yan Qin had high hopes for, did not move at all. It did not exert any strength at all. Just as Yan Qin felt that he was going to die here, the servant who had absorbed his essence suddenly jumped up. He covered his neck with both hands and shouted with a red face.
"What's in your essence?”
" Your essence is poisonous?!"
With these two sounds, Yan Qin's original three-dimensional essence returned once again. Moreover, it was even more abundant than before. There was a warm current in his every move, and his entire person was filled with a sense of power.
As for the servant, his body vanished into thin air. On the pitch-black floor, only a dazzling and familiar white paper-cut figure was left.
"Ding dong…"
"Congratulations to the host for absorbing the essence of a low-level puppet!”
"Congratulations to the host for killing a low-level puppet. You have been rewarded with 100 merit points!”
At this moment, a system notification sounded in Yan Qin's mind, causing him to snap back to his senses.
It seemed that his golden finger was indeed still alive, and it was indeed related to these evils. It seemed that he was really going to walk the path of a heavenly master.
