My Beloved Ghost

Chapter 20

To adapt to modern society, Ah Luo was now called Cang Xiao* Luo, and Snowball was now called Cang Xiaoqiu*. Both of them have changed their names to become the children of the Cang family. In addition, the household registration was updated, so Teacher Chang openly took them to primary school for schooling. After the next semester started, they and Xu Dian would be classmates in the First Year Class Three to receive their education on modern civilization. Of course, their head teacher was Chang Mu.

*Xiao means little or small in Chinese

*Xiaoqiu means little ball in Chinese

Snowball, who originally wanted to protect Ah Luo during daily life, found that his thoughts were wrong. Even if Ah Luo had no memory, he was still the strongest and didn’t need protection. He quickly became the class monitor and was a well-known outstanding student of their school. He also received lots of admiration from girls. Ah Luo’s favorite hobby was to monitor Snowball every day, who was fooling around, to help him finish his homework, urging him to hand in his homework on time, forcing him to memorize the English vocabulary, and compelling him to practice calligraphy. Snowball couldn’t handle all that and wanted to scream.

Father Cang rushed home with reverence but was told that Cang Sheng, the greatest and most outstanding ancestor in the legend, was that silly Little Black. His sorrow was almost indescribable. He wanted to take his sweet wife to travel around again but was stopped by the two little kids. Because Father Cang and Mother Cang thought these two children were too cute, and on the household registration book they were adopted by Cang Qiong from the orphanage, which meant the two children were theirs. The two elders’ grandsons! Since they now have grandchildren, they should stay and take good care of them so they wouldn’t be bullied by a group of guys of unknown origin.

Cang Qiong’s school also had started. He took Kong Kong back to the rented apartment again. Compared to the villa by the sea, the apartment was a paradise. It was just that there was a snake in the house. Its eyes were flashing just like light bulbs. Hopefully, it would hibernate in the winter.

Little Black and Little White were still on vacation. Their daily job was to make lunch bentos, do housework, take Snowball and Ah Luo to school in the morning, and pick them up when they got off school. Even during the visiting day, they turned into regular male and female couples to join the meeting. Although Little White was Snowball and Ah Luo’s child, as seen from the current situation, Little White was more like their guardian.

In short, everything restarted from the very beginning. A bright future was waiting for them.

“No need to mention him… He’s gone anyway.”

“Oh.”

“If I could have learned a little from him, maybe I wouldn’t have ended up like now.”

“What happened to you now? Is everything alright with you?”

Yang Jian smiled bitterly and stopped talking. King Yama took a peek at Pan Pan, who had finished checking the ball, and Pan Pan nodded back to him solemnly – this was Luo Zhiyao’s Seneive Soul.

It turned out that, like Xu Dian, Luo Zhiyao’s Seneive soul that had disappeared for thousands of years, was intact and kept in another place! In this case, Snowball didn’t have to look at Luo Zhiyao and sigh every day. And when Luo Zhiyao was forcing him to do his homework or read textbooks, he no longer needed to curse: “Luo Zhiyao! You have no conscience!” And he wouldn’t hide in the attic and cry secretly…

Pan Pan was very excited. King Yama began to worry. He didn’t say anything more to Yang Jian, and pulled Pan Pan out of Yang Jian’s place. One more minute there and there would have been another danger.

When they got home, King Yama closed the door and started negotiating with Pan Pan.

“Don’t act impulsively. Luo Zhiyao’s soul is kept by Yang Jian, but he was the one who killed Ah Luo back then, so don’t think about it.” King Yama’s tone was always authoritative. He could speak most fluently when he was giving an order.

“Can’t I just steal it? I won’t let him know.”

“What if he finds out? He would ask you what you wanted to do with Luo Zhiyao’s soul ball. What if he finds out that Luo Zhizhi has come back to life? The most terrifying thing is that he will be aware that you know the Method of Soul Rebirth, then that would be over for all.”

“I’m not that stupid! He won’t find out. There must be some time when he leaves his home.”

“Don’t be so naive! I said no, it means no. It’s an order!”

“Okay, I’ll obey your order.” The judge agreed with a smile, people could tell that he was duplicitous.

King Yama didn’t know what to say. While he was annoyed, Mother Cang from downstairs called them for dinner, “Everyone, hurry down now. It’s time to eat.” Pan Pan ran away fast, and King Yama had no choice but to follow.

After Pan Pan and King Yama went downstairs, a small head came out from under the bed in their room – it turned out to be Snowball. Because he took a nap during the English test, he only got 10 points on the test. He was hiding from Ah Luo but unexpectedly heard this brilliant good news…

“Yang Jian…hehehehe…” Snowball bared his little fox teeth and started making his own little plan…

The night wind began to turn colder. Looking at Snowball’s English test, the only words he got correctly were “love” and “fox,” which totaled 10 points. He started learning English in kindergarten, how could he be like this? Ah Luo really didn’t know what Snowball was thinking in class. He didn’t know where Snowball was now. In order to hide, he didn’t even have dinner.

Ah Luo took Snowball’s coat, walked out of the door, and looked around in the front garden. He was hoping that Snowball would automatically appear in front of him due to being too hungry. Suddenly, he heard a faint voice calling from the grass: “Luo Zhiyao! Luo Zhiyao!”

“Who is it?” Snowball also liked to call himself Luo Zhiyao, but this voice was not Snowball’s. Parting through the grass, he saw a fat white bug. Ah Luo liked white spherical objects so he didn’t feel disgusted when he saw this worm. He asked seriously, “Were you the one calling me?”

The goblin nodded and said, “Yeah! Of course, I’m calling you. There’s no one else here.”

“But my name is not Luo Zhiyao. My name is Cang Xiao Luo.” Ah Luo frowned.

“Hey…” The goblin slapped his back, “Luo Zhiyao, Luo Zhiyao, you are so smart. You even predicted this. I really admire you.”

Ah Luo squatted on the ground and looked at the fat worm in confusion. It burrowed back into the ground and then soon pulled out a book. “Come on, open it.”

‘What would this be?’ Ah Luo curiously turned to the first page. Suddenly, a stream of light shot out from the book, directly hitting Ah Luo’s eyebrows, and then a three-dimensional vivid image appeared on the book just like a movie…

While the pages of this wonderful book were automatically flipped, Ah Luo’s eyesight gradually changed… When it turned over to the last page, Ah Luo closed the book. Strangely, the book became  small. He returned it to the goblin and said, “Thank you, my old friend.”

“Don’t mention it. It’s my pleasure. Go and coax your little fox!”

“Shh—” Ah Luo put his index finger on his lips and said impishly, “Let me first bully him for a while. It must be fun!”

“Hey, your mischievousness didn’t change.” The goblin felt sad for Snowball. He put away the book and waved to Ah Luo, “From now on, I will live in this yard. Whenever you need me, call me!”

“Ok. No problem!”

The life that was forced to be suspended in Jixue Mountain was about to reopen its curtain for its sequel. Ah Luo stood up and stared at his elementary school uniform; a sudden playfulness emerged. He cleared his throat and started calling for his beloved pet.

“Qiu Qiu (Ball Ball), where are you? Come on out for dinner…”

On Little White’s bed, an ugly note was left there:

Son,

Daddy went to Hu You’s place. Please help me finish today’s homework and request a one-week break from the homeroom teacher for me.

Snowball 

The End
