At this moment, Zhang Lili was certainly not having a passionate encounter with her first love. The illusion in the mirror was just the hallucinatory effect of the hallucination card used by Meng Gui.
Just then, a gurgling sound came from behind Huang Zhiqiang. Huang Zhiqiang instinctively turned around and saw that blood was gushing out of the toilet.
"What the hell is going on?" Huang Zhiqiang was really scared now. He leaned against the bathroom door, his eyes fixed on the toilet.
After a while, a pale, emaciated hand covered in blood emerged from the blood in the toilet, gripping the edge of the toilet. Then another hand came out.
After both hands were out, a head covered in black hair slowly rose from the blood in the toilet. It looked like some unknown monster was slowly crawling out of the blood in the toilet!
Huang Zhiqiang felt something was wrong and quickly took two steps forward, kicking the thing on the head. The thing let out a "squeak!" and its hands suddenly became very long, wrapping around Huang Zhiqiang's back and choking his neck.
Huang Zhiqiang immediately felt suffocated but couldn't break free. He tried to pry the thin arms apart but found them as solid as iron bars, impossible to move!
The monster's head finally emerged completely from the blood in the toilet. It was a pale, bluish woman's face with a torn mouth and a few teeth showing. After leaving the water in the toilet, it suddenly stretched out and stopped right in front of Huang Zhiqiang's face.
"Pay up the wages! Or you'll be haunted by ghosts forever!" The female ghost clone of Meng Gui grinned with her torn mouth and threatened Huang Zhiqiang.
"Don't try to scare me! Go to hell!"
After being suffocated for a long time, Huang Zhiqiang swung a punch with all his might, trying to smash the woman's head, but unexpectedly, her head was harder than iron. Not only did Huang Zhiqiang fail to smash her head, but he also broke his fingers, causing him to cry out in pain.
The female ghost made a strange "sizzling" sound, her eyes glaring fiercely at Huang Zhiqiang. Then she suddenly opened her lipless mouth wide and bit down on Huang Zhiqiang's head...
Huang Zhiqiang fell silently to the bathroom floor, and a smell of urine spread in the air.
"Free ghost domain ended."
"The target was scared to the point of incontinence, earning 20 ghost points as a reward, along with one marking card, one surveillance card, one door-locking card, one soundproofing card, and one teddy bear."
"What's the teddy bear for?" Meng Gui looked at the teddy bear in his hand, puzzled.
"Although the teddy bear is cute, it can also be used to scare people," the ghost system explained to Meng Gui.
"Can it scare people? You're just pulling my leg..." Meng Gui was skeptical about the teddy bear.
...
"Husband! Husband! What's wrong with you?"
When Huang Zhiqiang gradually regained consciousness, he found himself lying on the bathroom floor. His young and beautiful wife, Zhang Lili, was covering her nose with one hand and shaking his body with the other, pretending to be concerned but looking somewhat disgusted.
Huang Zhiqiang pushed Zhang Lili away. After sitting up, he subconsciously looked at the toilet next to him... There was no blood or a woman with a torn mouth inside, and his broken fingers didn't hurt at all. It seemed he had seen a ghost!
Could this have something to do with that Meng kid who quit yesterday?
Huang Zhiqiang took several deep breaths, finally calming down.
"Why are you lying on the bathroom floor in the middle of the night instead of sleeping in bed?" Zhang Lili, seeing that Huang Zhiqiang was fine, complained.
Huang Zhiqiang was already annoyed. Hearing Zhang Lili's unpleasant tone, he slapped her.
"What are you doing!?" Zhang Lili was startled and then became extremely angry.
"What do you think I'm doing? Who were you lying in bed with just now?" Huang Zhiqiang was filled with anger and jealousy. Although he knew the previous scene was probably an illusion, he was still very upset, especially by the look of disgust on Zhang Lili's face. So he decided to pick a fight with her.
He was always busy with his company and making money, while this little slut had nothing to do and didn't stay at home honestly. Who knew if she had really been with her first love behind his back?
"You're talking nonsense! There was no wild man in bed!" Zhang Lili, feeling wronged, pushed Huang Zhiqiang back to the floor and stormed back to the bedroom.
"You better confess!" Huang Zhiqiang pursued her relentlessly.
"You're cursing me?" Zhang Lili became even more upset.
"Am I hitting you?" Huang Zhiqiang pinned Zhang Lili to the bed and slapped her buttocks hard several times.
Zhang Lili burst into tears and started fighting with Huang Zhiqiang.
Meng Gui had no interest in watching the couple fight. He yawned and closed the surveillance window in his field of view. That's enough for today! He would see if Huang Zhiqiang would pay his wages after being scared. If he still didn't pay, he would continue to haunt him until he couldn't take it anymore and begged for mercy.
...
Another day passed, and to Meng Gui's frustration, Huang Zhiqiang, after being scared by the ghost in the toilet, still didn't pay his wages.
It seemed he wouldn't learn his lesson until he saw the coffin!
Today, Huang Zhiqiang didn't go to the company but drove to the ancient Song Daoist Temple in the suburbs again, finding the old Taoist priest who had performed the ritual for him before.
This time, he spent 8,000 yuan to buy an amulet from the old Taoist priest and wore it around his neck.
Meng Gui didn't know about the amulet. He was annoyed and went to haunt Huang Zhiqiang again at night. However, his ghost clone suffered a significant loss from the amulet, being directly destroyed by the talisman that flew out of it. This resulted in the 10 ghost points and some cards he used to activate the ghost domain being wasted.
"The amulet Huang Zhiqiang bought from the temple is a one-time use item, but the amulet he bought this time can be used at least ten times and can be recharged at the temple when its power is exhausted," the ghost system analyzed the situation and explained to Meng Gui.
"Really?" Meng Gui was even more angry. His ghost clone couldn't even deal with a small amulet?
And that heartless Huang boss, who would rather spend a lot of money on an amulet than pay his wages, clearly hadn't learned his lesson. If Meng Gui couldn't deal with the amulet, it would be difficult to scare Huang Zhiqiang in the future, and any attempts would just waste the ghost points needed to activate the ghost domain.
"Should I just let him off?" Meng Gui had made threats but couldn't make Huang Zhiqiang submit and beg for mercy, which left him very frustrated. In the past, without superpowers, he could only endure such situations, but now with a ghost clone, he couldn't punish this fraudster, which was unacceptable.
"The amulet and the amulet he bought are only level 1 protective items. Since your current clone is also a level 1 ghost, it can't deal with them. But when your ghost clone reaches level 2, the amulet he bought won't be effective against your ghost clone anymore," the ghost system explained.
"Level 1 ghost? Level 2 ghost? Can the ghost clone level up?" Meng Gui became interested.
"Yes!"
"How can my clone level up from level 1 to level 2?" Meng Gui quickly asked the ghost system.
"Have you read fantasy, immortal, or cultivation novels?"
"Yes..."
"Level up by practicing! Complete tasks issued by the system or catch some wandering ghosts to level up your ghost clone. In short, you can imagine your ghost clone as a cultivator or a ghost cultivator, practicing and leveling up to become a stronger ghost!"
